I am guilty of calling G. W. names.















I called him the little shrub, a far cry from the names that so-called Christians are calling Obama. I wonder if the name little shrub incited people to throw bricks through windows or calling for the death of an American citizen. Some how I don't think so. Oh yeah I did call him a repugnant. I wonder if that name cause someone to cut the gas line to a congressman's home. BTW the guy got the wrong house.

Re: Obama's Anti- Fed Funded Abortion Executive Or

As to the president...
I am told that before the 2008 election there was a published prophecy that the next president would not be known as a religious man, but in office he would change into a superb and very effective Christian. May this prophecy come true of the current president, and may he change his tune regarding those issues where the Lord wants him to change, and so may we also come to change our tune in how we think about him.

Re: Obama's Anti- Fed Funded Abortion Executive Or

For the record, I am not calling BO a name when I say he is a baby killer from way back.

I am stating an absolute fact.

True.

I know that this is just an executive order and doesn't have any real teeth and that it doesn't override the law of the land. However, those who would tear Obama apart for making such an executive should be asked if they oppose it. Do they wish that Obama didn't issue this order? Do they oppose the principles embodied in this executive order? Would they rather have had Obama give an executive order making federal funds for abortion manditory?

With Roe v Wade, I don't see much that can be done about abortion accept executive orders in regards to funding.

One more thing...

I'm a bit disturbed with so many calling the President a "baby killer".

First, like him or not... Obama is our President and we are called to respect his office and pray for him.

Second, unless Obama has personally ordered the abortion of a child or performed one himself he isn't a baby killer. I find it interesting that our society allows for individual "choice" in regards to abortion, yet we put the blame on politicians instead of the women who procure the abortions. Why not call these women "baby killers"? Next time you're behind the pulpit at church let the congregation know that if any woman present has had an abortion she's a "baby killer". Then blame would be properly placed. Because even with "choice" in our society there wouldn't be any abortion if individual women didn't choose abortion. But I'm willing to wager that most will agree... calling women "baby killers" from the pulpit would be in appropriate. I'm just making a point.

The onus for abortion is on the individual women who make that choice. Not a politician. This is what bothers me about the political side of the pro-life movement. It exploits the termination of human life for political gain and fails to put responsibility where it really is... in the hands of individual women who choose abortion.

Re: Obama's Anti- Fed Funded Abortion Executive Or

What? No pomp? So much easier on the repeal when you do it behind closed doors.

Quote:
President Obama will sign an executive order barring the law from allowing federally funded abortion, but he'll do so behind closed doors and with no media allowed.

Not even a photographer will be allowed into the Oval Office to capture the moment.

Unlike yesterday's bill-signing celebrations in the East Room and the Department of the Interior, the president signed this executive action behind closed doors, with nary a camera present and no reporters allowed.

Re: Obama's Anti- Fed Funded Abortion Executive Or

Okay, let's pray for him...

MOST gracious God, we humbly beseech thee, as for the
people of these United States in general, so especially
for President Obama:
That thou wouldest be pleased to direct and prosper all
his consultations, to the advancement of thy glory, the
good of thy Church, the safety, honour, and welfare of thy
people; That all things may be so ordered and settled by
his endeavours, upon the best and surest foundations, that
peace and happiness, truth and justice, religion and piety
may be established among us for all generations. These
and all other necessaries, we humbly beg in the Name
and mediation of Jesus Christ, our most blessed Lord and
Saviour. Amen.

Yes, well, BHO definitely needs the prayers and any who voted for him need the practice.
