It is racist to conclude that any black man within earshot of Rev Wright MUST be a black liberationist. NOT.

Here's your verse
(Genesis 5:4) The days of Adam after he fathered Seth were 800 years; and he had other sons and daughters.
But it sounds to me like you are just one of those that just wants to bash, with no real search for the truth at all, so thanks for not wasting anymore of my time.
And yeah, Christians can be snippy too sometimes.
I think your verse fits you to a tee.
There is nothing more reviled in the Bible than lying, scheming, back-stabbing, wealthy self-important deceivers of the people.
If you were someone who actually honored the Bible you'd be afraid to support people who are unjust, deceitful and dishonorable.
We can bring up many lies and deceits by Bush and his band of merry warring men.
If you can find one lie among us here you are free to point it out, but I don't think you can do it, because we aren't fond of lies, or those who lie, or those who oppress the poor, or those who steal from the peasant to give to the rich man.
So please, if you support liars and oppressors, don't come here quoting Bible verses trying to shame those who want peace - you are on the wrong side of the book and your head is just inside out.
The rest of the verse....(sm)
thereafter (is the time for) either generosity or ransom: Until the war lays down its burdens. Thus (are ye commanded): but if it had been Allah's will, He could certainly have exacted retribution from them (Himself); but (He lets you fight) in order to test you, some with others. But those who are slain in the way of Allah, - he will never let their deeds be lost.
Amazing, as I was just thinking this verse to
xx
Thank you, sbMT. I knew the verse was in there
:)
Please direct me to the bible verse where it is written
about the right to bear arms. I missed this.
"They are no more pro war than God is. They do believe in the right to bear arms..."
Embedding slurs while invoking Bible verse.
Nanaw was able to step up to the plate. Is she the only one? So far, it looks that way, as though the temptation to post hate speech under a prayer request was too strong to resist. No problem with expressing these sentiments, but at the very least, they belong in a separate thread.
Isn't amazing that you judged, sentenced, and stereotyped someone just from one Bible verse they
posted. My, you must be clairvoyant. And immensely proud as well. You really told her, didn't you. You should never quote the Bible as though you now what you are saying. The spirit in which you quote it negates any meaning YOU might give it. You actually just proved what that poster said to you.
yes...that song was on there.
There actually were two of those videos created and the first one was taken off of youtube as well. I wish they would make it without music then because it had some good information that I think people should see especially since the media is too busy kissing Obama's butt that they really don't give all the facts.....just the ones that make Barrack Uhhhbama look like a god.
Beautiful song...sm
My favorite part was when she says...
'Let me tell you about hard work.'
What a beautiful song!
It made me tear up. My granddaughter *caught me* and wanted to know what was wrong. I just told her I heard a very sad song that was unfortunately very true. She wanted to hear it, and I played it for her, as well. Thanks for posting this. Pink is in good company. There are more and more of us every day that he can't/won't walk with.
You just made me think of that song
Ancient of Days.
I am not scared of the end times, I am just scared for those that do not know him. I sometimes wonder if we will have a moment of great grief before we pass into heaven when we look back and see all of those whom we didn't speak with or wouldn't hear of it. Like I tell my parents all the time "I don't want to be able to say I told you so"
Fat lady starts her song!
You know it has to be pretty darned bad when virtually all you see on the left-wing blogs is searing criticism of Democratic congresscritters. And I have to say, I absolutely agree with them. I'm still partial to progressive values but let's face it, elected Democrats are worthless, and have been since 2000, if not long before.
I have to wonder if that's been part of the plan all along, and if there are not much larger forces than the RNC focused on literally destroying America, her political system, her people and her former glory. With Alito's confirmation it's a done deal. The right can yuk it up all it wants and assume a smugness off the scale - but they don't appear to be aware that it's their nation too that is being dismantled. What is their powerful, pushy, money-grubbing and quasi-criminal majority party without a strong minority to watchdog it?
There's only one answer, and it is bad news 99% of the American people.
So let the fat lady sing over America's flag-draped coffin. Enjoy the song, enjoy the carnage, pop the champagne corks - it's all one big party now.
The Bush was not elected song is getting old.
To truly prove you are not bitter, try not mentionig it again. It seems the left has enough problems with Bush without bringing that up. JFK was not legally elected either. Historians now know that Illinois was bought for him by papa. Life goes on. But the bitterness of carrying around a load of rage just never seems to leave.
Obama song - way too creepy
Anyone seen the kids singing the Obama song. It's way way creepy. They're all dressed in their little uniform and doing hand gestures and you can definitely tell the kids do not know what the lyrics mean. It was on the Obama website but after so many negative comments they took it off. One commenter on AOL wrote "it is eerie. What on earth are children doing praying to a candidate? I'm not sure what bothers me the most: Is it their glassy-eyed stares? Is it their Children of the Corn-fed good looks? Their hyptonized vibrato-less tones? Someone else wrote "This has more than a little whiff of Havana and Moscow about it". And another commenter wrote "These kids are already being taught to worship Obama as if he were some kind of god. That's what kids in North Korea, Cuba, Saddam Hussein's old Iraq, and other totalarian regimes were taught to do as well. The purpose is if they grow up seeing their leaders as god-like they're less likely to rise up against them." (now that's one of the best observations I've read).
Anyway...here is the link and you can see for yourselves. Don't watch it before bed unless you don't mind nightmares.

Reminds me of that song be happy
Although reading your post I do have to say I think you've been hitting on the ju-ju juice a little too much. HA HA HA
We are not ALL "proud" of Obama. Proud that he's legally hiding his birth certificate. Proud that he had his school records legally sealed so nobody can see that he may have possibly gotten aid as a foreign student. Proud that he stole the election from Clinton. Not everyone in the world admires him (there are plenty of countries who believe we were duped and bought into the "rapture" of electing a black man that we didn't want to investigate him and who he is and how he got as far as he has and who is behind him, and why in the world anyone would vote for someone that doesn't have any experience. There are many countries now questioning his ability to lead by the people he is surrounding himself with. And as our own newly elect VP Joe Biden said "Mark my words, it will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy".
As for him demonstrating
"purity of the heart". I have not seen anything to demonstrate that yet. I do know that Farrakhan seems to think he's the messiah, so maybe that it where people are getting that mixed up. Doen't make it true, however.
I'm glad your happy and I'm not taking that away. But soon I think once the effects of the kool-aid wears off you might see things a bit more clearly.
Not all of us feel joy and pride. We feel fear, uncertaintly, hopelessness, loss, despair, nervousness, doubt, worry, anxiety, and trepidation (and please don't tell me I should take medication for that). These are all real issues that we are facing. We are losing our homes, jobs, savings, retirements and everything we worked for and here comes the O saying "I feel your pain. I'm going to make it all better for you" and people buy into it without question. "How are you going to do that we say, what will you do for us right now so we don't get kicked out of our houses". "Well I'm going to tax all those nasty rich people that don't need it and give it all to you" "Yeah, hooray, Obama is my savior. I will never have to work or worry anymore how to pay for things I want."
So, go ahead and be happy. I have to live in reality.
P.S. - It's not the age of aquarium (unless I want some fish). It's the Age of Aquarius which deals with astrology. So maybe the O is from another planet. HA HA.
It is like the old song Love and Marriage
You can't have one without the other.
President Obama inherited the nightmare that was created by George W. Bush. You cannot talk about what President Obama is doing without discussing the fact that George W. Bush and his cronies destroyed this country.
Does anyone know the words of Mick Jagger's new song...
"No Sympathy for the Neocons?" Would love to have the lyrics but am afraid of getting a virus while chasing the internet. New rightwing criticism, of course!
The song is called "Sweet Neocons."
whoops!
Excuse me, but to quote an old song loosely...
*What does love have to do with it?* A LOVE affair...oh PLEASE. But I also digress.
Please to take a look at the Libby thing. From top to bottom. Judith Miller also could not remember all of her conversations. She did not get prosecuted for perjury. They did not even call Armitage (who actually DID the leaking) as a witness. That is because the prosecutors, Fitzgerald and Comey, had a personal bone to pick with Libby. Libby was the lawyer for Marc Rich (yep, one of Clinton's more famous *hail mary* pardons)...cost them a really big case. Then to add insult to injury, Clinton pardoned him. There were all kinds of sour grapes there. It is obvious to me it was a malicious prosecution. Level playing field? You ARE kidding, right??? Armitage, the actual leaker, the person they were SUPPOSED to be after, admitted it, and is a free man today, and who is going to jail? The whole thing REEKS. That being said, I did NOT call for Libby to be pardoned. I said why not, based on what the Dems did for Clinton and what Clinton did for Marc Rich, convicted FALN terrorists to name a few in his little pardon spree. What is Libby lying (or jurors thinking he lied) in comparison to that?? What I said was that Dems should not be up in arms about it if he IS, because they have been accepting of it wholesale on their side. That is ALL I said.
And as to letting Clinton's debacle rest...if Dems will stop the hypocrisy and cying foul when the other side is caught doing things they have excused on their own side, you will hear nothing from me. However, if they continue the hypocrisy, I will continue to point it out. There is no statue of limitations on keeping it fair, at least in my opinion.
That should be Obama's new campaign song - Desparado
Sure fits their campaing right now.
dorky song threat realized
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPBxmrWqI-g&feature=related
Great song. Glad to see our talented artists are sm
having the courage to send a message.
McCain's theme song - Twist and Shout.
Biden's point was that whomever is elected President will be tested, and he feels that Obama is more qualified to deal with it than McCain. Once again, the McCain camp has twisted Biden's words to suit their own agenda.
Let's not forget Sarah Palin's hit song, It's Witchcraft.
You wacky right wingers crack me up!
RNC Candidate Distributes Controversial Obama Song
RNC candidate distributes controversial Obama song |
By Reid Wilson |

RNC candidate Chip Saltsman's Christmas greeting to committee members includes a music CD with lyrics from a song called "Barack the Magic Negro," first played on Rush Limbaugh's popular radio show.
Saltsman, a personal friend of conservative satirist Paul Shanklin, sent a 41-track CD along with a note to national committee members. |
"I look forward to working together in the New Year," Saltsman wrote. "Please enjoy the enclosed CD by my friend Paul Shanklin of the Rush Limbaugh Show."
The CD, called "We Hate the USA," lampoons liberals with such songs as "John Edwards' Poverty Tour," "Wright place, wrong pastor," "Love Client #9," "Ivory and Ebony" and "The Star Spanglish banner."
Several of the track titles, including "Barack the Magic Negro," are written in bold font.
The song, which debuted on Limbaugh's show in late March 2007, latches onto an opinion column in the Los Angeles Times of the same title. That column, penned by cultural critic David Ehrenstein, argued that Obama could serve as a balm to whites who felt guilty about past treatment of African Americans.
Limbaugh first highlighted the column the day it ran, according to a contemporary report by Media Matters, the liberal watchdog agency. Media Matters reported Limbaugh repeated the phrase more than two dozen times the day the column ran.
The following month, Shanklin debuted his version of the song, sung to the tune of "Puff the Magic Dragon" and performed in Shanklin's impression of AL Sharpton.
"See, real black men, like Snoop Dogg, or me, or Farrakhan, have talked the talk, and walked the walk, not come in late and won," one verse in the song says.
Saltsman said he meant nothing untoward by forwarding what amounts to a joke more at Ehrenstein's expense than at Obama's.
"Paul Shanklin is a long-time friend, and I think that RNC members have the good humor and good sense to recognize that his songs for the Rush Limbaugh show are light-hearted political parodies," Saltsman said.
Republicans searching for ways to attack Obama have been hesitant to embrace any reference to his race. Limbaugh presciently predicted his allusion to the column nearly two years ago would win attention from left-leaning organizations that would suggest he was using Obama's race against him.
