I couldn't finish reading this article. Just the description of the partial
birth abortion made me glad I had nothing in my stomach. How can anyone
possibly think this is ok? If we get a leader like this... I don't even
want to think about it. Also, how could one call themselves a Christian and
vote for this... this... thing. He's not a human if he makes into law such
a heinous practice! I know things are going to get worse... but my heart
breaks for the innocence's that will be lost! I know, abortion is still
legal... but at least McCane wants to abolish it... I've heard! All I have
to say is... Lord come quickly!

>>> Why I Can't Vote For Obama
>>> By Huntley Brown
>>>
>>> Dear Friends,
>>>
>>> A few months ago I was asked for my perspective on Obama, I sent
>>> out
>>>an email with a few points. With the election just around the corner I
>>>decided to complete my perspective. Those of you on my e-list have seen
>>>some of this before but it's worth repeating...
>>>
>>> First I must say whoever wins the election will have my prayer
>>>support. Obama needs to be commended for his accomplishments but I need
>>>to
>>>explain why I will not be voting for him.
>>>
>>> Many of my friends process their identity through their
>>> blackness.
>>>I process my identity through Christ. Being a Christian (a Christ
>>>follower)
>>>means He leads, I follow. I can't dictate the terms, He does because He
>>>is
>>>the leader.
>>>
>>> I can't vote black because I am black; I have to vote Christian
>>>because that's who I am. Christian first, black second. Neither should
>>>anyone from other ethnic groups vote because of ethnicity. 200 years
>>>from
>>>now I won't be asked if I was black or white. I will be asked if I knew
>>>Jesus and accepted Him as Lord and Savior.
>>>
>>> In an election there are many issues to consider but when a
>>> society
>>>gets abortion, same-sex marriage, embryonic stem-cell research, human
>>>cloning - to name a few, then wrong economic concerns will soon not
>>>matter.
>>>
>>>
>>> We need to follow Martin Luther King's words, "don't judge
>>> someone
>>>by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." I
>>>don't
>>>know Obama, so all I can go on is his voting record. His voting record
>>>earned him the title of the most liberal senator in the US Senate in
>>>2007.

>>> > NATIONAL JOURNAL: Obama: Most
>>>Liberal Senator in 2007 (01/31/2008)
>>>
>>> To beat Ted Kennedy and Hilary Clinton as the most liberal
>>> senator,
>>>takes some doing. Obama accomplished this feat in 2 short years. I
>>>wonder
>>>what would happen to America if he had four years to work with.
>>>
>>> There is a reason Planned Parenthood gives him a 100% rating.
>>> There
>>>is a reason the homosexual community supports him. There is a reason
>>>Ahmadinejad, Chavez, Castro, Hamas etc. love him. There is a reason he
>>>said
>>>he would nominate liberal judges to the Supreme Court. There is a reason
>>>he
>>>voted against the infanticide bill. There is a reason he voted "No" on
>>>the
>>>constitutional ban of same-sex marriage.
>>>
>>> There is a reason he voted "No" on banning partial birth
>>> abortion.
>>>There is a reason he voted "No" on confirming Justices Roberts and Alito.
>>>These two judges are conservatives and they have since overturned partial
>>>birth abortion. The same practice Obama wanted to continue.
>>>
>>> Let's take a look at the practice he wanted to continue. The 5
>>> Step
>>>Partial Birth Abortion procedures:
>>>
>>> A. Guided by ultrasound, the abortionist grabs the baby's leg
>>> with
>>>forceps (remember this is a live baby)
>>> B. The baby's leg is pulled out into the birth canal.
>>> C. The abortionist delivers the baby's entire body, except for
>>> the
>>>head.
>>> D. The abortionist jams scissors into the baby's skull. The
>>> scissors
>>>are then opened to enlarge the hole.
>>> E. The scissors are removed and a suction catheter is inserted.
>>> The
>>>child's brains are sucked out, causing the skull to collapse.
>>>The
>>>dead baby is then removed.
>>>
>>> God help him.
>>>
>>> There is a reason Obama opposed the parental notification law.
>>>
>>> Think about this: You cannot give a child an aspirin without
>>>parental notification but that same child can have an abortion without
>>>parental notification. This is insane.
>>>
>>> There is a reason Obama went to Jeremiah Wright's church for 20
>>>years.
>>>
>>> Obama tells us he has good judgment, but he sat under Jeremiah
>>>Wright's teaching for 20 years. Now he is condemning Wright's sermons.
>>>I
>>>wonder why now?
>>>
>>> Obama said Jeremiah Wright led him to the Lord and discipled
>>> him. A
>>>disciple is one in training. Jesus told us in Matthew 28:19 - 20 "Go and
>>>make disciples of all nations." This means reproduce yourself. Teach
>>>people to think like you, walk like you; talk like you believe what you
>>>believe etc.
>>>
>>> The question I have is what did Jeremiah Wright teach him?
>>>
>>> Would you support a White President who went to a church which
>>> has
>>>tenets that said they have a
>>> 1. Commitment to the White Community
>>> 2. Commitment to the White Family
>>> 3. Adherence to the White Work Ethic
>>> 4. Pledge to make the fruits of all developing and acquired
>>> skills
>>>available to the White Community.
>>> 5. Pledge to Allocate Regularly, a Portion of Personal Resources
>>> for
>>>Strengthening and Supporting White Institutions
>>> 6. Pledge allegiance to all White leadership who espouse and
>>> embrace
>>>the White Value System
>>> 7. Personal commitment to embracement of the White Value System.
>>>
>>> Would you support a President who went to a church like that?
>>>
>>> Just change the word from white to black and you have the tenets
>>> of
>>>Obama's former church. If President Bush was a member of a church like
>>>this, he would be called a racist. Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton would
>>>have been marching outside.
>>>
>>> This kind of church is a racist church. Obama did not wake up
>>> after
>>>20 years and just discover he'd been going to a racist church. The TRUE
>>>church can't be about race. Jesus did not come for any particular race.
>>>He
>>>came for the whole world.
>>>
>>> A church can't have a value system based on race. The churches
>>>value system has to be based on biblical mandates. It does not matter if
>>>it's a white church or a black church based on racial values, it's still
>>>wrong. Anyone from either race that attends a church like this would
>>>never
>>>get my vote.
>>>
>>> Obama's former Pastor Jeremiah Wright is a disciple of liberal
>>>theologian James Cone, author of the 1970 book "the goals of the black
>>>community". If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a
>>>murderer, and we had better kill him.
>>>
>>> Cone is the man Obama's mentor looks up to. Does Obama believe
>>>this?
>>>
>>> So what does all this mean for the nation?
>>>
>>> In the past when the Lord brought someone with the beliefs of
>>> Obama
>>>to lead a nation it meant one thing - judgment.
>>>
>>> Read 1 Samuel 8 when Israel asked for a king. First God says in
>>> 1
>>>Samuel 1:9 "Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know
>>>what the king who will reign over them will do."
>>>
>>> Then God says
>>>
>>> 1 Samuel 1:18 " When that day comes, you will cry out for relief
>>>from the king you have chosen, and the LORD will not answer you in that
>>>day." 19 But the people refused to listen to Samuel. "No!" they said.
>>>"We
>>>want a king over us. 20 Then we will be like all the other nations, with
>>>a
>>>king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles." 21 When
>>>Samuel heard all that the people said, he repeated it before the LORD. 22
>>>The LORD answered, "Listen to them and give them a king."
>>>
>>> Here is what we know for sure.
>>>
>>> God is not schizophrenic
>>>
>>> He would not tell one person to vote for Obama and one to vote
>>> for
>>>McCain. As the scripture says, a city divided against itself cannot
>>>stand,
>>>so obviously many people are not hearing from God. Maybe I am the one
>>>not
>>>hearing but I know God does not change and Obama contradicts many things
>>>I
>>>read in scripture so I doubt it.
>>>
>>> For all my friends who are voting for Obama can you really look
>>> God
>>>in the face and say; Father, based on your word, I am voting for Obama
>>>even
>>>though I know he will continue the genocidal practice of partial birth
>>>abortion. He might have to nominate three or four Supreme Court
>>>justices,
>>>and I am sure he will be nominating liberal judges who will be making
>>>laws
>>>that are against you. I also know he will continue to push for
>>>homosexual
>>>rights, even though you destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah for this. I know I
>>>can
>>>look the other way because of the economy.
>>>
>>> I could not see Jesus agreeing with many of Obama's positions.
>>>Finally I have two questions for all my liberal friends.
>>>
>>> Since we know someone's value system has to be placed on the
>>> nation,
>>>
>>> 1. Whose value system should be placed on the nation?
>>>
>>> 2. Who should determine that this is the right value system for
>>> the
>>>nation?
>>>
>>> Blessings,
>>> Huntley Brown
