BEWARE OF FALSE PROPHETS







I sincerely believe the truth will set you free, but following the false promises and lies of people who promise you things they cannot deliver will lead to nothing but darkness and disappointment.
Such is the case with Barack Hussein Obama as far as I am concerned.
He comes to the people with a promise of change. The implication being that he will change all things that are perceived as bad, by those who listen and believe in him, will be made better if we elect him President.
My problem is simple. It is the difference between truth and lies. After twenty years of listening to a racist radical Pastor and declaring him his spiritual advisor during his Presidential campaign. When news of the racist, anti-American hate speech spewn from Pastor Wright's pulpit surfaced, he removed him from his campaign staff, but still defended him publicly.Any person who had a little bit of respect and gratitude for the accomplishments that Obama has been able to achieve, would show his appreciation as a loyal American by denouncing the speech of Mr. Wright, if not denouncing him as a person.
He refuses to wear a symbol of the American flag on his lapel, but wore Muslim clothing when he visited Kenya. His picture in Somali garb obviously was not taken for American eyes to see, but to honor the locals. When the picture surfaced on the internet. Soon after the piture was published Wajir residents planned to demonstrate after their Friday prayers to show their support for the Illinois senator.
Mohamed Ibrahim, who attended one of two crisis meetings held in Wajir on Thursday by clan members who hosted Obama on his trip, said Washington must immediately make amends to them and especially to the elder pictured with him.
"The U.S. government must apologise to us as a clan and the old man," Ibrahim told Reuters by telephone. "We have been offended and we cannot afford to just watch and stay silent."
I don't believe for a moment that the U.S. Government needs to apologize for anything other than it is a shame the leading Presidential candidate appears to me more concerned about how Somalis perceive him than do the Americans like me that believe a man aspiring to be president should proudly wear the flag that tens of thousands have died for! And if that wasn't enough. Remember the Americans who lost their lives in Mogadishu of "Black Hawk Down" infamy. Their garb is the last clothing an American should wear out of respect for those who died there.
His lies about not accepting any money from Big Corporations, and Big Oil in particular have been proven false.Campaign contributions reports show despite Obama's claims, he's taken more Corp $$ than Hillary Clinton. GoldmanSachs $421,763 Ubs Ag $296,670 Lehman Bros $250,630 Nat'l Amusements Inc $245,843 JP Morgan $243,848 Sidley Austin $226,491 Citigroup $221,578 Exelon $221,517 Skadden, Arps Et Al $196,420 Jones Day $181,996 Harvard Univ $172,324 Citadel Investment $171,798 Time Warner $155,383
Then there his slam on small town Christians and Jews in Pennsylvania over this past week. In a speech given in "sanctuary city" San Francisco. Our own Sodom and Gomorrah by the Bay he had this to say: "You go into some of these small towns in Pennsylvania, and like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothings replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are gonna regenerate and they have not. And it's not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."
For a man who wants to be President he shows very little appreciation for he fact that this country was founded by religious men.
I could go on listing reasons why this false prophet should not be the next President, but I believe there is enough here to awaken those who have been lulled to sleep by the smooth talking liar from Hawaii by way of Chicago.
