Hell of a post Jim!

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague".”

~~Marcus Tullius Cicero

There might be ONE reason the Almighty may be yet staving off a fatal chaos that is so richly deserved... the USA is a place where peoples of all countries come, and most can still hear the gospel even if it’s in Christmas carols. This mission is the most precious one of all to the Father’s and Jesus’s heart. And so we are seeing an extravagant grace in the face of much disobedience. Let this last element go down the drain... THEN shall come the destruction.

The fools among us think that Obama is something new, when in fact Marcus Tullius Cicero described him to a “T” 2,100 years ago.
