Hilary = Obama 2.0?

video is pretty self explanatory. Seems like a lot of the same simple minded, single reason voters that voted Obama in because he's black.




feel free to discuss

I used to work with a guy who said he would vote for Obama because Obama loves video games and gaming. Lot of people out there who don't research candidates on their beliefs and issues that really matter that negatively affect the American people. Like Pat said really scary stuff. I keep praying for our country, but maybe we need a good kick in the pants to get us back on track. Based on last year's election, maybe we're finally coming to our senses.

Too bad you don't have to pass a test in order to vote.

Maybe not a test but, how about you can't vote if you're getting govt assistance?

The vote should be for what's best for the Country, not what's best for you.

Does that mean I shouldn't be able to vote because I'm on Social Security and Medicare? Seems to me I've paid for that involuntarily all my working life, and I paid for my Tricare supplement and military retirement with my service.

No, then everybody would eventually lose the right to vote, even me!

I was referring programs that are supposedly temporary, as soon as the assistance ended the voting right would of course be restored.

I just don't like the idea of a test because most of my relatives are slack jawed yokels and we vote as a block.

I like the test idea. If you can't pass a civics test about how our government, about how a capitalist democracy works, you don't get to vote. If that ever could happen, it would eliminate 3/4 of the population as voters!

I used to think that we needed to fund campaigns with tax dollars but I have changed my mind. I want important knowledgeable people being able to fund candidates because the alternative will give us someone like Chavez in Venezuela.

Let's see, the government doesn't really know who is receiving assistance and they will sue states or counties for trying to take dead people off of the voter lists..........sure I think the government could straighten that out for us.

It used to be that you had to be a land owner to be able to vote so you had skin in the game. Now all you have to do is walk across the border or come up out of the grave.

I'm convinced that the last election was won with voter fraud and with the help of the IRS.

If we don't clean house, another country will come in and do it for us and then they will rule us!

We have gotten so far away from the 10 Commandments and the reason for starting this great country of ours, that we have allowed every type of belief into the USA, That is why we now have un-Gody people running our country. This was a Christian nation at one time but not anymore. We have people who worship other god's running our great nation now. If you don't like our Crosses, Flag, 10 Commandments, Christian Prayers, Marriage between a man & a women,The English Language(Press 2) Then GET OUT AND LEAVE !

2 Chronicles 7
14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Q. What do you get when you cross a crooked politician with a dishonest lawyer?
A. Chelsea Clinton!

Rev, I have to comment on your post - I am a conservative Republican, but I am not a Christian Fundamentalist, which is what you sound like you are. This country was formed for religious freedom, not for any kind of mandated religion. The keyword is religious tolerance. Religion has no place in government other than to protect those of all beliefs. This is what's falling apart.
