I’ve been praying for our country at Mass every Sunday. The traditional thing is to pray that God will enlighten our political leaders.

But in Obama’s case, it doesn’t seem likely. With God, all things are possible; but He doesn’t force anyone to do the right thing, if they are absolutely determined to damn themselves. He gives them chance after chance to change; but he doesn’t override their free will.

So I’m praying for our country, instead. May God bless, protect, and inspire our country to change for the better.

What needs to happen is we expose some of the “pro-life” members who are selling out. What’s the price for all those unborn babies? If we can’t keep exposing their backroom deals, they’ll jam it through as soon as they can.

It is error alone which needs the support of government.

And they've been supporting a lot of error since Hoover's administration.

I’m always leery when they say they’re “undecided”. That usually means they are holding out for a deal before they will vote “yes”.

Obama was a mac daddy when he got elected. I don’t know if he still qualifies, because he’s having so much trouble getting people to do what he wants them to do; Here’s the Urban Dictionary definition:

A pimp is someone smooth and charismatic and good with women and uses his powers to exploit weak women.

A mack is a pimp that is able to exploit both men and women.

A mack daddy is a mac that is able to expoit other macs

A long legged mack daddy is a king or chief or master mac daddy. Sorta like the godfather of all mac daddies.

Obama is a long legged mack daddy.

I am positive you are right. This will be her Waterloo as well, and I am hoping that the investigation into the Massa scandal will ultimately bring her down.

I would be willing to bet that MOST of the Dem Sen's. are about freeking tired that that shrill telling them what they are going to do.

I’m drawing a blank. To me, Soros has the charisma of a dead toad. But then I don’t see Obama as charismatic either. Clearly O had something going, though, or he wouldn’t have gotten over fifty percent of the vote. Not even ACORN could have cheated sufficiently to get him the margin he won by, imho.

It’s odd that WSJ didn’t mention the shannanigans regarding the Slaughter (the USA) bill. Is that still in play?

It shouldn’t be.

Rush said on his show today that they are still working on using it.

That’s what Mark Levin was talking about throughout his show this evening. And he sounded defeated to tell you the truth...like this is going to happen and then it’s probable nothing will be done (not for the lack of trying but because of the stacked court system we have now) I’m depressed and agitated but more than anything, I’m really hacked at how our emotions keep getting screwed with. EVIL is the only name for this.

I was just listening to Mark Levin's show from yesterday on my iPhone while driving home from work this evening.

He said that there will be plenty of organizations ready to slap law suits.

He didn’t sound optimistic this evening. When we have people willfully breaking law...
He did mention, speaking only for himself, that he fully intended NOT to participate.

Obama is a long legged mack daddy.

While this may be what defines a long legged mac daddy, obama is only a straw boss of a slave plantation who gets his orders from those to whom he sold his soul to to become a figurehead phony POTUS.

Wow. I have not listened his show from today yet.

I just downloaded it into my iTunes.

I will definitely listen in a little bit.

Thanks for the Jefferson fix; I love this quote: “It is error alone which needs the support of government. Truth can stand by itself.” That’s going into my Tagline.

Do Not despair. Remember that God sits on his throne and Christ sits at his right hand. Remember also the last words of Jesus at the end of the Gospel of Mark, chapter 28 verses 18-20:

18 And Jesus came to them and spake unto them, saying, All authority hath been given unto me in heaven and on earth. Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit: 20 teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you: and lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.

He has all authority in heaven and on earth. He is with us until the end of the world. Nothing takes place here on Earth without his say so. I believe God is going to do something great so, let's just wait, watch, and continue to pray.

"Nancy and Harry are just common slaves on the plantation where mac daddy is the straw boss who gets his orders from those he sold his soul to to become the phony figurehead POTUS."

Well put.

Ironic, isn't it, that we'd wind up with a black Massah', and anyone who dares point it out is vilified as the "racist" in the crowd??

Truth IS stranger than fiction.

"I’m always leery when they say they’re “undecided”. That usually means they are holding out for a deal before they will vote “yes”."

Or at least like they really, really thought carefully about it before the predictable cave.
