When Will Obama's Wave Crash?

I don't know when and/or if Obama's wave will crash, but he just won the "Amercians abroad" Democratic primary yesterday, making it 11 wins in a row in primaries and caucuses. I believe he had received 3.5 delegates to 2.5 for Clinton, at the time.

Don't 'zackley get how you have half a person voting, though.

Maybe they'll use the head chopping device that Brother Bob has spoken of to divide one of the delegates at the Democratic Convention.:rolleyes:

What an Amazing Ride

This post has gone everywhere in 15 pages or less...it is interesting to see just where are ideals and politics take us spiritually.

Let's agree on one thing folks, America needs a radical change to get it back on track. I may hate myself in the morning, but, Obama may be the person, if in fact he can keep riding the wave all the way to the shore. However, I see him doing a spectacular "wipe out" within the first 12 to 18 months of taking office.

Remember this one truth. A newly elected president already has a group of people that "hate him/her and want them to fail." That is the group that didn't vote for him. Secondly, those that rode the train to victory start jumping off as the train moves out of the station in Victory City.

I would never tell anyone to not pray for this nation and ALL its elected officials. We are mandated to pray for the leaders of our nation. But, we are not mandated to follow them to the gates of hell. Prayer helps us to discern the truth and keep ourselves pure for God.

Don't one of those who fall so deeply under the Obama spell to break free when the time comes.

Sorry.....
Nothing to be sorry about, but we often are subjected to the view that "Communism" is at one end of the political spectrum and "Fascism" and it's more extreme cousin "Naziism", are at the other end of the spectrum. This is usually a false choice presented by those who 'want to split the difference' with a modified socialism, of some form, although a few have merely 'bought into the program', without considering this in any detail.

These are some of the choices usually offered, in a sort of 'descending order?' :

Communism ('Utopian' or Marxist Socialism)
'pure' Socialism
'limited' Socialism
'Democratic' Socialism
Fascism (Federal Socialsim)
Naziism (National Socialism)

Do you notice that is is all 'socialism'?
All center upon some sort of all-powerful state!
Do you notice there is no room in this view for individuals in a free state or a constitutional Republic?

Anywhere?

That was why I said what I did.

Ed,

How did Mussolini come to power? By Coup? Or by elections?
I am aware of how Stalin came to power but Mussolini's rise is not clear to me.
BTB, I am in agreement with you again regarding the Socialist scale. It is clear that our slide toward the socialist state is and will be similar to all nations that have taken that path.

I am slowly beginning to understand some things I never knew...

Wasn't FDR's "New Deal" the first step into making our country into a socialist society? Or am I confusing something?

A step, but I don't know that it was necessarily the first step. There were some previous ones in the US as well, albeit some may have been unwitting. The well known push for the League of Nations would qualify as an intended step, IMO.

Yea Convicted1, you can write in my name........:)

BBob,

Okay Bro Bob.....


Here I go....I vote for Bro Bob!!! Let's start a new campaign for Brother Bob......he will lead us straight. At least I know that Bro Bob would lead us towards God, not from it. Obama just SCARES me too much. BTW, I hope his wave crashes at the Democrat National Convention, and he doesn't win the bid.....

Why do you want to play the race card?

For some people, yes, but not for me... I would love to have Alan Keyes.. I have voted for him in the past...

I find your response very inflaming... no one has even hinted of racial overtones or undertones on this thread...

Why are you trying to hijack the thread by playing the race card...

That makes you sound like Jesse Jackson, or Al Sharpton.

I am against him because of what he stands for.. .murder of innocent babies, and big socialist government.... I don't care what he looks like.

It is who he is that matters..

Sometimes you really need to think before you type.

The scripture that people use for this situation is the one that says that God appoints kings...

But we don't live in a monarchy... we are in a constitutional republic/ democracy.... so in this case, we are our own rulers....

Because of this God expects us to rule our nation wisely...
The way he would expect kings to rule wisely, and make the best decisions.

The concept behind it, is that God is ultimately in control... and yes, he will allow even wicked rulers to rule.

And he allows his people to be ruled by wicked rulers..

Adversity helps shape our character.

And yes, I would consider Obama as wicked.. .anyone that supports Partial birth abortion is a wicked person...
Anyone that says that 2 homosexuals can unite in marriage.. is a wicked person...
Anyone that supports cloning... is a wicked person.
Anyone that believes that he is "creating" a kingdom on earth is a wicked person... and deluded...

And anyone that can support a person like this, is well, I won't call them wicked, but they are under a strong delusion.

TinyTim,

That's about as good, if not better than, anyone could have stated this very sentiment. Amen, Brother, Amen!!

BTW If Bro Bob is Prez, and you Vice Prez, may I be the Secretary of Treasury? I haven't been rich, but I could handle this money better than anyone........ducking for cover......:tonofbricks:
 
tinytim said:
Sure... and if other members of BB will jump on our bandwagon, and donate to our cause, I will even commemerate them...

For $10,000 donated to our cause, I will place a plaque with their name on it on the plane....

For only $20,000 I will send the donator a miniature statue of Brother Bob in which they can put on their dashboard as a reminder that we are working for their cause....

Bob, you wanna add something?

Bro Bob,

I would say "no" to the bobbing-head doll if I were you. First of all, if they don't like you for what you have or haven't done, they will snap it at the neck like a twig....personal "head-choppin'" so to speak. Secondly, if they are distributed to Louisana(sp?), they have a lot of "voodoo" people, and you talk about trouble then...LOL

I could name one that I have even voted for, Alan Keys. I would walk across America for him. I for one think that your post here is uncalled for. It is policy that motivates me to vote for or against any man or woman regardless of race.
