Obama's 'Sleight of Hand'

Like a skillful magician utilizing that staple of magic tricks referred to as the 'sleight of hand' technique, Barack Obama has attempted to turn the controversy surrounding his Pastor, mentor, advisor, and close friend into an opportunity to talk about race in America.

The issue was never about race, however...not that his zombie-like worshippers will care.

The issue is hate--hate for America. And there has been plenty of it abounding within or near the Obama campaign as Michele Obama has alluded to her disdain for America, and now we are treated to the stark examples of pure rage toward the U.S. and most of its citizens as uttered by that purveyor hate extraordinaire, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright of the ultra-liberal United Church of Christ.

It is not to be forgotten that Barack and Michele were married by the Reverend Wright, and he baptized their children. The family has sat under his tutelage for over 20 years, and not once has anyone complained about his hate-spewing diatribes until now.

But Barack is basically an untrustworthy magician. He can woo his followers with carefully chosen rhetoric, seducing and hypnotizing them into complete awe by simply talking about 'change,' 'racial unity,' and 'hope.'

Yet in doing so, he threw his Pastor under the bus and even went as far as doing the same thing to the person who raised him.

In short, he would do anything to get elected, even betray and belittle his own Pastor and family of origin.

Barack also showed us his true political colors. He stated that only when whites and blacks come together in unity can we 'overcome the industrial-machine complex of the rich' who are the source of all of America's ills.

In this one statement, my friends, he has denounced Capitalism and embraced a Bolshevik-styled notion of the proletariat coming together to topple the rich.

Can you say 'Commie?'

As it turns out, Obama is no skillful magician at all, except to the idiots who support him.

Second Amendment News Roundup for 3/14/08

Focusing on guns and politics, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

As expected, here come the tax increases. The Democrat controlled Congress just passed the largest tax increase in American history, even before a Democrat potentially gets elected to the White House--another reason to make sure to do all we can to stop either Hillary or Obama from getting elected:

Barack Obama Takes Swipe at Religious Right

At the annual national meeting of the United Church of Christ, one of the most liberal denominations in the world, Democratic Senator and Presidential candidate Barack Hussein Obama took a swipe at the religious right in a speech before the assembly.

Speaking before an enthusiastically supportive crowd, Obama stated that the religious right had used faith to divide Americans rather than bring us together.

He then used some of the religious right's key issues such as prayer in schools, abortion, and homosexual marriage to lash out at evangelicals, all of which supposedly further proves their 'divisiveness.'

Perhaps we should take a closer look at the beliefs of the United Church of Christ, which supposedly represents the Senator's belief system and faith.

The United Church of Christ (not to be confused with the conservative Churches of Christ) is a mainline Christian denomination that has strayed far from its core doctrines, as have most of the so-called 'mainline' Protestant denominations.

For example, the United Church of Christ (designated as the 'UCC') participates in 'the Jesus Project' and its predecessor 'The Jesus Seminar'--a consortium of ultra-liberal scholars who state not only that Jesus did not speak upwards of 85% of what is attributed to Him in the New Testament, but that Jesus in all likelihood did not even exist as a historical figure.

Thus, I would like to ask the good Senator, which has been more divisive--the fact that millions of evangelicals denounce the slaughter of unborn children, or the fact that his own denomination overtly attacks the faith of millions of Catholics, conservative Protestants, and independent Christians?

In addition, the United Church of Christ is long-known for its support of liberal political initiatives, including denouncing the U.S. military and its use in war, the support for women who choose to have abortions, the opposition to school prayer, in spite of the fact that across the globe and right here in America drastic accommodations are being made to MUSLIMS who wish to pray.

The UCC also openly supports gay marriage and allows openly gay clergy to serve as Pastors of its churches.

Do they have a right to these views? Of course they do. This is a free country, and any group, religious, private, or otherwise, has the right to make its own rules and endorse whatever lifestyle or set of beliefs it wishes.

But this is not the point. B. Hussein Obama said that evangelical Christianity is divisive because it supports a traditional view of marriage, denounces the removal of corporate prayer from schools as an anti-Christian motivated tactic, and supports those policies in society and in government that uphold and honor the sacredness of human life.

Perhaps the good Senator also thinks that evangelicals are divisive because they insist that Jesus Christ was a real person and that the Bible is to be taken seriously as the definitive authority on faith for Christians.

Thus, when you hear B. Hussein Obama, Presidential candidate for the Democrats, speak about those awful members of the religious right, remember that this is the man that voted AGAINST allowing medical care and life-support to be given to babies who survive botched abortion attempts.

The man has ZERO credibility when it comes to matters of faith.

And it is highly doubtful that the UCC can call itself 'Christian' with integrity.

Methodist Leader--U.S. Flag Like Nazi Swastika

Washington, DC (TLS). As we have previously reported on The Liberty Sphere,
'mainline' Christian denominations in America today have little if anything to do with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Most of the so-called 'mainline denominations' are nothing more than outposts for Leftwing political propaganda that is then passed off as 'the message of Jesus.'

For example, Barack Hussein Obama's denomination, the United Church of Christ, is officially part of 'the Jesus Seminar,' and the 'Jesus Project,' which flatly deny that Christ spoke 90% of what is attributed to Him in the New Testament. They also question if Jesus was even a historical figure.

This week the leader of the United Methodist Church and Society stated that the U.S. Flag is like the Nazi Swastika. This point was made when the man was attempting to defend his contention that the U.S. Flag has no place in public worship, that it should not even be displayed in a sanctuary of worship at all.

My friends, the lunatic Leftwing fringe has infiltrated mainline Christian denominations!
