...is it possible?

Discuss.

In my opinion, one large part of the Obama agenda is to use international laws to shut down thee freedom of the American people. He has no desire for America to be free.

Nonsense rhetoric..

Maybe or maybe not...we will see.

what exactly has he "transformed"?.

The government has now taken over much of the auto industry, the banking industry, school loans, and is persuing more. The government is growing by thousands (making the people smaller) when the hell-care bill is anchored. The agenda is to Europianize America, make us a socialist nation. He has created dual nation of politicians, all at each other's throats. He is transforming the nation into something that she is not, nor ever wanted to be. Just watch.

Oh, so you're a birther too? Great..

Well, after I heard of the two statements made before the man became president, that gave strong evidence, if notproof, of where he was born, I suppose I am a birther. When running for Senator, he responded to a reporter's question of "how can you run for office, you are not even from America?" His response was something like this, "It's not like I am running for president." That sounds like he was admitting his distant birth place.

Then his wife was speaking in June 2008 ans said, "When he and I went to Africa, to his home country of Kenya..." That sounds a bit suspicious too.

How do you know what he is or isn't proud of?.

I believe that if I apologize for something, genuinely, it would mean I was not proud of it.

John Adams said the same thing - we are NOT a Christian nation..

Was he talking to the world, or just expressing an opinikon among people who are local?

And in terms of Muslim contributions - how about our number system?.

That was not a contribution to America, but to the world. I am very thankful for it too. However, where are the contributions to this country, as compared to the Christians' contributions?

Everyone's a "potential" terrorist..

I have to agree that you got that right!!! But, who is on the terrorist list? That is what really counts.

Really? So what happens if I say "Islamic terrorist"? Are the secret police going to take me away?.

Nothing will happen to you, however, you would be politically incorrect, and someone could file a case of discrimination.

There have been countless "Prayer Breakfasts" and many other Christian religious services in the White House since Obama has been President. I don't understand what could possibly be bad about having a Passover Seder in the White House for the first time ever, or what could be bad about having Muslim services their either. I hate to be the one to break this to you, but there are MANY American citizens who aren't Christian. Why shouldn't they have prayer services in the White House too?.

I was not complaining about the Jewish celebration, I was comparing actions. I have no problem with either celebration, but to not have one that has become a tradition seems a little discriminatory. I just hope we keep the prayer breakfasts going.

Why don't you read his books, if you're so curious as to who he is and where he's from?.

I am aware of his books, and he makes pretty clear who he is in them. However, he walked the fence on some of those issues while deceiving his public as he ran for president. He claimed to be a Christian as he ran for president, however in his book he said basically that if push came to shove he would go with the Muslims.

And this is why I compared you to Westboro Baptist Church..

Whatever.

I am now apologizing to many people for our President. I am so sorry we have made him a world leader, only to bring the world down.

This is why no one takes you seriously.

I am not a terrorist, nor do I want to be. I do not like violence, and I do believe in loving our neighbor. However I do also believe in knocking off the dust from our shoes when we realize the man in that office is a traitor, unwilling to see or seek the truth.

God help America.

And I don't even know what that last paragraph means.

figures.

Umm it is international.

The Congress nor the President have the authority to abridge the US Constitution even by US treaty. It would require an amendment to the US Constitution.

International arms trade is covered in the constitution?

 

[xotoxi]

Truth is I have never looked at everyone we sell conventional weapons to. Never much thought about it. But I do know that I do not want some other country telling us that we can't.

When has the US ever stopped doing something just because another nation doesn't want us to?

 

[xotoxi]

America is about gone now, and I thank God that I will not have to live here much longer.

Where you gonna live at?

Um.. We don't get our rights from Government. Ours or otherwise.

The statement is true. Government does not grant rights. Government limits the extent to which we can express our rights, ideally to create a smooth running society that is as fair as possible to the most people.

I am old enough that I will be with my Heavenly Father by the time the bottom falls out. I am praying that Jesus will return and my grand kids will be with Him too.

Now why would you want to cut off your great grandchildren living and going to heaven? That seems selfish to me.

I will just be dead and gone before too long. And those who come after me can do as they wish.
