It seems Obama might be more in tune with Christian and Mormon values than is claimed by a rather incredible outburst above Pray for your enemies. It seems we may be on the road to Armageddon, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth will bring us distruction and we will not be held guiltless. George Bush has led us down a path which may lead to world war three with unjustified invasions of foreign nations. It only fuels radical Islam with new conscripts. America must regain the moral high ground and so I pray for Obama. Then Mitt Romney in four years. Blessed be the peace maker for they shall be called the children of God.

And we certainly have different ideas of what being a Christian is all about. Sure there is a time and place to argue the issues and challenge Obama's agenda but that doesn't mean we have to resort to smearing and "fighting." As much as I want to stop the liberal agenda I can't stand all the war and fighting metaphors. We live in a democracy where we argue and present the best arguments, not destroy those who disagree with us. Approaches like your only discredit you and hurt the cause that you purport to support. Wow indeed. docweasel –

You're a false Christian if you stand idly by and allow injustice and injury to your fellow Americans. The Dems are not just wrong-headed, they are evil, and they wish to destroy our country. We truly believe that if they are allowed to govern unfettered, they will split or splinter the country. It may ultimately fail completely. We need to fight their policies, destroy their power, their reputation, damage their brand, attack their motives, decry their excesses, stop their programs, fight them on every issue, call them on every crime. The ascension of Obama was NOT a good thing for this country. The man is a stone racist. He despises white people. He indoctrinated his children from birth with a preacher who taught that all whites are evil, greedy, racist, murderous and dishonest. He taught them never to trust a white face, that whites invented AIDs and crack among other thing to keep blacks down and murder them. He taught them that whites have only their own interests at heart, so blacks should do so as well. He is the epitome of what is wrong with black America today, their focus on the "evil" of the white man for all their own problems. Fight him. Attack him. Smear him. Undermine him. Propagandize against hm and his ilk. We have to start NOW. NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW. To stand by idly or fight in a "gentlemenly" fashion is not just cowardly, ignorant and foolish, it's traitorous. Damn those who won't fight Obama and the Dems with EVERY legal means, and most especially our freedom of speech. Let's give as good as we got over the last 8 years. Do you really contend that if we behave like little nancyboys for the next 8 years, that if a Republican does get in, the Dems won't again demonize him and drive his ratings to the low 20s? If you do, you are more than a fool than you look. If you do not fight Obama and Dems with everything you’ve got, you’re not a true conservative.

I think my most sincere prayer (not my strong suit) was praying for President Bush on 9-11-01. Anyways, I appreciate your thoughts.
