		        <![CDATA[<p>I am glad to lighten your day!  I do hope I am wrong if Obama is elected.  But I have never been a gambler, and he does not speak frankly about his background.  <br />
What is he hiding?  Why did it take him six years to complete a four-year program.  Was he working fulltime as a community organizer until 1988? Why is there no occupation listed after his graduation for two year? Did he practice as a lawyer?  Why not list it if he did?  He allows the questions by not being up-front?<br />
I DO HOPE YOU GET THE LAST LAUGH IF HE IS ELECTED AND DOES THE COUNTRY WELL!    </p>]]>

		        <![CDATA[<p>You know what I meant!  Hillary should have become the Democratic candidate with so many questions that still remain unanswered about Obama's background.  What were the Democrats thinking?  Yes, Obama does pour on his charm and is a smooth talker, now that he figured out his stance.  Why hasn't he been forthright in his posture?  Have you been able to read the pages concerning Obama's background?  I cannot find anything on internet to fill in the blanks.  Please, document.</p>

<p>P.S.:  You definitely are a Progressive Liberal!  Your crude, rude, and indignant language tells on you!  Did the truth hurt?</p>]]>

		        <![CDATA[<p>Has anyone identified the offenders at McCain's rallies?  They could be  PLANTS to smear McCain.  And just remember, McCain cannot control what others do.  </p>

<p>I believe it is very prudent that questions on background be put forward.  Now is the time to do it!  We do not know Obama.  I like his persona, too, but we have to enter into this marriage with open eyes!  After election will be too late!  </p>

<p>The rhetoric called “HATE” needs to be displaced with the term “CONCERN” for our future!   Obama has openly lied, changed positions, didn’t know his own convictions early-on having to wait and feel out the public and opponents, and seems to say what he thinks his audience wants to hear.  “Words, only words.”  We certainly cannot believe he was a member of that congregation for twenty years and did not know went on.  Why are so many of his associates questionable?  He has given no substantiated evidence of his background and activities.  Where are lifelong friends who should be vouching for him?   He seemingly is a wolf in sheepskin to those of us who haven’t jumped on the ban wagon, keeping their eyes open!  </p>

<p>He supports abortion and is willing to kill his own grandchildren.  He most likely will lead us to assisted deaths/suicides to relieve the country of other burdensome beings: old people, mental patients, disabled, who knows who.  Perhaps you or your child who is in a comma from an accident!   For the most important job in the world, how can you trust someone who openly defies moral right and would be refused by the Secret Service or the FBI with his questionable background? </p>

<p>Personally, I endorse McCain because he has displayed an upright position on issues, knew his own convictions from the beginning, and has loved beyond self for unnumbered, unknown others with great sacrifice.  He adopted; not out of his need, but out of love, empathy, and caring for others, despite his own frailty and weaknesses.  Obama has shown his love through his rhetoric.  Words are easy. </p>

<p>Obama has fought dirty politics, too, but has had to go to the VP position to do it!  Why?  Because of McCain’s clean record and years of front-and-center profile in the country!  Both men have smears of adultery.   The only times I have heard McCain called a liar is in the name of “hate” which really should be termed “concern for our country.”     </p>

<p>I dare to say that Chicago politics has taught Obama a lot of dirty; like “plants” in the opposing rallies to build negativism toward McCain.  Obama certainly has had the budget to hire others to do his dirty work!   Twenty years with Pastor Wright would have taught him to seed the term “hate” for the term “concern!”  McCain has not had such exposure and is and always has been an upright candidate for the most important job in the world!</p>

<p>DECENCY IS THE ONLY WAY TO PROMOTE VIGOROUS SELF-ESTEEM, PEOPLE, AND COUNTRY!   Keep your eyes open and be concerned!   <br />

My family and I have experienced healings, answers to prayers, and countless blessing from living the best we can using the scriptures.

		        <![CDATA[<p>Yes, what a wonderful story!  I have felt the same many times as I have lived the gospel.  You must have been drawing upon God's strength! </p>

<p>Try reading Luke 24:32  And they said one to another, did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures? </p>

<p>2 Corinthians 13:14  The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.</p>

<p>I do believe and have much purpose in life because of faith in God, our Eternal Heavenly Father; Jesus Christ, his son, our mediator through whom we ask of Our Father; and the Holy Ghost, the third member of the Godhead who will inspire, educate, comfort, and protect when worthily and genuinely seeking answers and companionship of God. </p>

<p>I hope you are doing well and be assured of Heavenly Father loves you and answers prayers.<br />

		        <![CDATA[<p>Years ago when teaching in a small high school, the sweetest, high achieving young women from the far east attended with her two brothers.  Once, while walking with her in the hall, she told me she was betrothed to a man in Canada and had no choice as to whom she was to marry.  I replied, "..., you are in America now."  </p>

<p>Later, I learned that if she were to defy her father in this arrangement, she would simply disappear: killed!  Her brothers were out of control, held to no consequences of their choices.  They were havoc in the classroom!</p>

<p>That God has no resemblance to my God!  Woman were created as helpmates, to nuture the children; not to be treated as cattle.  </p>]]>

<p>I can a great deal about our country and citizens.  If my "inane ramblings" sounded like hate, I am sorry.  I do not feel hate, only frustration at being bombarded by immoral media, constantly, while we so called "zealots" are told to shut-up, as your hateful entry.</p>

<p>Pron is every bit as addicting as alcohol, drug, and tobacco.  Most media promote "soft" porn which has gravitated to hard porn by unfathonable numbers which has contributed to so many of our social problems: preditors and murders!</p>

<p>Aren't you worried about it, too?  Should be.</p>]]>

		        <![CDATA[<p>We judge not the people, but the acts!  Especially, when one is unable to watch television even for a short moment or stand in the grocery checkouts, without being indated with distasteful, graphic productions.  We used to be able to watch programs that were uplifting and having some substance: Andy Griffeth Show, Little House, the two Angel Shows, Ben Matlock,Murder She Wrote, etc., but now we have crude, rude, and lude for the majority of the programming.  Why? Because we have reached the embracing segment of Abhor, Endure, and Embrace.  There are no limits, today!</p>

<p>I used to substitute teach in high schools, and I loved the retrobates.  I dearly tried to show them that I cared about their futures.  Most teachers had crossed them off and literally snubbed their noses at them.  I had some respond fairly well by trying harder and accounted to me of their efforts.  The acts need some judging or our society is going to fall just as Rome.  There is no strength in weaknesses.</p>]]>

		        <![CDATA[<p>Seinfeld?  Who's that?</p>

<p>No, really.  I do know what the show is, but I turn stations when he comes on.  The several times I have attempted to watch, I've turned it off!  They seemingly are funny and appear to protray a fairly vice-free front, but they promote some of the very things I oppose.  Promicuity and deceit are not acceptable social norms, and they persuade others that they are!  We have very few upright shows from which to choose, now days!</p>

<p>Many advertisements are no better! An example is the newest Degirno[?} Pizza Ad: deceit by the pizza boy, bossom immodesty, and blatant proprositioning!  Why?  Because we have been enduring until we have now allowed the embracing.</p>

<p>1John 2:15-16  Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world.  If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.  For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.</p>]]>
