More about the Yule Goat
Yep! As in pale, pale, pale like white as in White Supremist. I suppose that is one of those pastors who deem I could not possibly be Christian since I'm not Caucasian. Makes me almost wish I wasn't Christian. And also tempts me a to be bigoted against Whites.
Make them pay. No more free private jets, no more free limos, no more free houses. Then if they want to participate in this country they can follow the laws that apply to all business. Until then STFU.
Rev. Arnold Conrad, past pastor of the Grace Evangelical Free Church:
"I would also pray, Lord, that your reputation is involved in all that happens between now and November, because there are millions of people around this world praying to their god — whether it's Hindu, Buddha, Allah — that his opponent wins, for a variety of reasons," Conrad said. "And Lord, I pray that you would guard your own reputation, because they're going to think that their god is bigger than you, if that happens. So I pray that you will step forward and honor your own name with all that happens between now and Election Day," he said.
WOW.
Let's say there is an attempt to harm Obama. The monster is, of course, caught right away. As part of the investigation, the SS runs thru all their video (using facial recognition) of all the McCain rallies and, behold, the monster was at a rally or two. It's a fact that if you pass through a metal dectector to an event like that, you've also been video taped. McCain better pray, I mean pray, he has not released a monster.
They're going right for the fundie/wingnut base.
Best thing would be to promote every wingnut statement they make.
They'll get the fundies, but lose the independents and middle of the road Repubs.
Or will he (preacher) crawl back under the rock he crept out from???
That pastor just insulted Hindus, Muslims and Buddhists.
Why doesn't americablog send this story to asian-American supporters of Obama?
This jerkwad pastor just insulted most Asian-Americans as being un-American.
McCain is done trying to grab, or snatch a blue state. He must defend all the Bush states, including Iowa, or he looses. As Obama have various roads to 270, McCain does not.
Expect him to pull out the expensive state of Pennsylvania, next and focus all his energy on Ohio and Florida.
He must defend: Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado, North Carolina, Indiana, Missouri, Florida, Virginia, Ohio, Iowa
These are all states that have Obama leading significantly, leading close, or too close to call.
McCain does not have the money to defend all these states. He can forget New Mexico, that is 3 EVs. So, he must make the EVs up somewhere, which is why the battle in Nebraska and Maine. The only two states that delegate their EVs by congressional district wins. Obama is fighting him in Nebraska right now and expect Obama to ramp it up in Maine.
The states to watch with large voter turnout is Georgia. The other state under the radar is West Virginia, which are getting these ads run by Obama because of the border of Ohio and Virginia.
I think some would be surprised if he did.
He shouldn't worry about Iowa, MN, PA even NM, because all of them are lost. It is "firewall" time because the "firewall" states are crumbling
Dear Rev. Conrad,
I don't know about Asians praying for Obama, but this white evangelical U.S. Christian is praying that God liberate us from the shackles of the GOP! I have had enough of the greed and arrogance and lack of compassion shown by Republicans over the past 28 years -- as Ezekiel 16 says, this nation has outdone Sodom under their leadership.
In Christ who is Lord of all Creation,
bp
No? Damn!
If these dumbass preachers ever picked up a book other than the King James Bible, they'd know a bit more about the world.
Just when you think these no hopers can't demean Christianity any further they turn it into a WWF match.
WCW = Wasilla Creationist Winker
God is funny that way.
And since Muslims are monotheists, when they pray to God, they are praying to the same God that Pastor Douchebag is ordering around. But I guess when you treat God as your personal errand boy and order Him around, it's easy to consider Him your personal property and therefore the petitions of others to His grace are irrelevant.
It's a perfect illustration of the original reasoning behind why church and state should be separate - not to protect the state from undue influence, but to protect religion from corruption. Guess that's too late for Reverend Douchebag's flock.
I know it's nit-picking, but I'm a Christian, and these idiots have been giving my tribe a bad name for decades now.
“Your reputation is on the line here Buddy Jesus and I don’t know if I can believe in you if those OTHER Gods let Obama win so you BETTER get on the ball or else! ‘Cause if I find out that their GODS are BIGGER than you? Well, I’m just gonna to take my hypocritical ass of a self home and get me a hooker or 6 just like Falwell, Baker and Haggart! You hear me Jesus!?!? Don’t make me, Jesus! Don’t make me!”
