“NEVER! Obama is a plague on this nation!
You people who are scared to death of Obama crack me up. He’s pathetic. Lazy. Ineffective. And many in his own party don’t like him.
You’re going to replace that with a driven, efficient, self-serving, corrupt, crpyto-leftist with a taste for and track record of destroying conservatives?
How stupid are you?”
That kinda sounds like a backhanded endorsement of obama to me and an insult to conservatives! Is that right, eh??

It's called reality pal.
Hope has to lie in the Lord, not in institutions of men. The root cause of our national problems is spiritual. We are being destroyed because we have lost our wisdom of both our Christian heritage and our history (Hosea 4:6).
The Prophet Jeremiah loved his country, and his own people hated him for speaking the truth about what would happen to them if they did not repent. Eventually God told Jeremiah not to even pray for his people any longer, because judgment was being pronounced on the entire nation for it's collective sins.
John Adams wrote a warning that falls along those same lines: "The people in America have now the best opportunity and the greatest trust in their hands that Providence ever committed to so small a number ... if they betray their trust, their guilt will merit even greater punishment than all other nations have suffered, and the indignation of Heaven" - John Adams - 1787.
Voting for Romney and others who pay lip service to their oaths for power's sake is just another betrayal of the trust our Founders left to us. This is why I make it a continuous point that we as a people have to do a 2 Chronicles 7:14 FIRST - because putting politics before God as a solution to what ails us is idolatry.
If that is doom and gloom to you - then I suggest the priorities are not in the right order. Our Founders certainly put God first, and the church went to work LONG before the fight for Independence to Awaken the people by repentance. The churches today have yet to do this.
And doing anything without God on our own power is a certainty for disaster. How is that for doom? Then again, we can read Lamentations and understand what real doom is.
To 'Redding'?
Went looking for it in TX, guess I misunderstood.8^(
“It is HILARIOUS how all the “conservative” Romney-backers now sound like they’re suffering from battered-wife syndrome, even right down to the specific language and word choice they use. “But I KNOW I can trust him THIS time!” It’s pathetic.”
Funny, but I didn’t read it that way at all; most don’t particularly care for or trust Mitt, but absolutely reject obama totally! Then there are the others...

You 'misunderestimate' the contempt Christians hold for Mormons. ~grin~
Despite that, in no way does that mean any Christian is going to be voting for Obama. So no, it does not defy logic.
Thanks! There is much to agree on - we don't like any but Christian conservatives that revere our Constitution, given to us by Christian Founders! 8^)
(Yeah, that's maybe a bit off-topic - but, I'm thinking so much that Christianity will be the sole respite and salvation from what we face in this election!)

“”Not voting at all, or voting for a Ron Paul, or X on the ballot, IS in fact a vote FOR Obama.”
Not true. Simply RINO propaganda. These arrogant clowns think they own our votes and we should just shut up and do what they say.”
Given that you’re correct, what is your solution (other than whining, that is)?....
Crickets...

I just don't know what will happen with many who just will not vote for Mitt under any circumstances. The question is, how many will - and how many won't. That is the bottom line.
We need to elect a 'super-majority' of conservative Republicans - working through the Tea Parties. The GOP 'elite' won't like that - but, hey they work for us, not the other 'way round.'
What happens in the presidential - I don't know, but, I'll hope and pray that Obama isn't going to be the winner.
Look up and pray - we WIN in the end... no matter how bad it looks now, we win. How much better could it get!?
Yes, I know, weeping does come naturally, and it is so very easy to become discouraged. But, we're there... the bad-guys don't win.
Yeah, that is JUST what Ronald Reagan did in 1976, when he lost the nomination to Ford. He quit the party.
Oh, wait....
Undoubtedly you are quite correct. But, with the division that Romney brings, all bets are off, in my humble opinion. Maybe I'm wrong - or maybe I'm right... as there is a great deal of division among GOP voters.
You are quite correct - but, unfortunately there are many that would rather 'sit it out' than vote for Romney. Not a good thing... but, in their eyes, Romney will be as bad, or even worse than Obama.

Indeed, we first have to face reality before we can explore the options.
The reality is, most Americans are clueless, or possess a willful refusal to face what time it really is.
Cognitive dissonance always occurs when a people think it cannot happen here/ or to them and the reality of it is staring them in the face.
It's later than almost anyone is willing to admit.
