> What does it take to be the most liberal member of the United States
> Senate - farther left than Ted Kennedy, John Kerry or even Hillary
> Clinton? For the answer, take a look at a man who could be the next
> president of the United States: Barack Obama.
> Sen. Obama was recently named the most liberal U.S. Senator, based on
> the annual voting analysis by the non-partisan and highly respected
> National Journal. If he emerges as the Democratic nominee, one of the
> critical jobs of Focus Action will be to uncover the real Barack
> Obama-not the feel-good orator who speaks of 'change' and 'hope,' but
> the man who would be the most left-wing president in our nation's
> history. And we'll need your continued help to do so.
> Obama: As extreme as they come on family issues
> On abortion, Obama's 100 percent lifetime voting record from Planned
> Parenthood and NARAL only begins to tell the story.
> While in the Illinois State Senate six years ago, Obama was the only
> senator to speak against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, which
> protects babies who are born alive after a failed abortion. In other
> words, it prevents flat-out infanticide. A year later- while the U.S.
> Senate was passing Born Alive 98-0 - state Sen. Obama quietly killed an
> identical bill in the state committee he chaired!
>
>
> Not surprisingly, then, he also opposes the ban on partial-birth
> abortion and supports allowing minor girls to be transported across
> state lines for abortions without parental notice or consent.
>
>
> Perhaps most chilling is his avowed support for the Freedom of Choice
> Act, which, if signed into law, would threaten every pro-life law passed
> at the state and federal levels over the past 30 years.
>
>
> In addition, while the next president could effectively overturn Roe v.
> Wade with the right Supreme Court appointments, Obama is proudly
> committed to appointing judges who will uphold legal abortion. In fact,
> his judicial philosophy is typical of the radical left. He believes that
> judges can change the meaning of the Constitution at their discretion.
> Not surprisingly, he voted against the nominations of Justices John
> Roberts and Samuel Alito.
> How about marriage and the homosexual agenda?
> First, he opposes the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). If given
> the chance by the liberal Congress, Obama will overturn DOMA,
> potentially forcing every state to recognize homosexual 'marriages' and
> guaranteeing that you and I pay federal benefits to support homosexual
> couples. Please note: Technically, he says he is 'opposed' to same-sex
> 'marriage,' but by standing against DOMA, he is standing against the
> only thing that prevents same-sex marriages from spreading state to
> state.
>
>
> Second, he has pledged to homosexual leaders that he will sign the
> Employment Non-Discrimination Act (forcing businesses to defend
> themselves against discrimination lawsuits should they not hire a
> particular candidate who then announces he or she is homosexual or
> transsexual). He also supports hate-crimes expansion (potentially
> putting churches at risk if they preach the truth about homosexuality).
>
>
> Then there's his support for teaching schoolchildren (in 2nd grade, no
> less) about
> homosexual relationships. He also wants to require women to register for
> the draft. And, as a state senator, he even refused to support a measure
> to stop sex businesses from opening near schools or places of worship!

> The price of 'change': Hold on to your wallet!
> Sen. Obama talks constantly about the need for 'change.' But what he
> doesn't tell you is the price tag, so allow me: It will be very
> expensive change.
> He supports raising taxes to pay for universal health care, his free
> college program and a host of other government expansions. Among his pet
> projects is a bill he sponsored called the Global Poverty Act, which
> would commit the U.S. to spending 0.7 percent of gross national product
> on foreign aid. Over 13 years, that will amount to a whopping $845
> billion increase over current foreign-aid spending! Get your checkbooks
> ready!
> National security?
> One area where Sen. Obama seems to have an aversion to spending is the
> War on Terror. But it's not just the admittedly controversial war in
> Iraq where Obama has shown himself to be soft on terror:
> He has repeatedly voted against funding our troops in Iraq-unless the
> funding included a date certain by which our soldiers must withdraw from
> their fight against al Qaeda. Even with the troop surge producing superb
> results, Obama has called both the surge and the war a failure. In fact,
> he and Hillary seem to be in a rhetorical contest to see who can abandon
> the battlefield first.
>
>
> He, along with Hillary, voted to give captured terrorists and illegal
> immigrants constitutional rights that are reserved for American
> citizens. Can you believe that Sen. Obama actually favors granting
> citizenship to illegal immigrants convicted of crimes against children,
> aggravated felonies and other serious crimes? It's true.
>
>
> Perhaps, then, it should come as no surprise that Obama also voted
> against a resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to protect the
> American flag from desecration.
> One has to ask: Did he learn anything from 9/11?
> Ditto for Hillary?
> On most of the issues I've mentioned, Hillary isn't far behind Obama's
> extremism. In fact, she ranked as the 16th most liberal senator in
> National Journal's scoring. But the reality is that most people know
> about Hillary. They remember her push for government-run health care.
> They know of her radical pro-abortion stance. They may even recall her

> Obama, though, is the new kid on the block. In fact, a little more than

Though I have enjoyed Dobson's Focus on the Family talk show, I wasn't familiar with Minnery. Anyway, I wasn't surprised that Minnery proclaimed Obama the most liberal of the liberals.

Boy, it really has made me wonder why there has been so much hostility toward Obama from God fearing folk? If God wanted Obama as President then IMO there would nothing one could do to alter his will and visa versa.

Lord bless...

Probably because he SECRETLY opposes everything any God fearing folk believe in.

Based on your other posts, it seems clear that you support this dirtbag.
Well, that is your constitutional right. If he is elected, enjoy your rights for the little time that you will have left to enjoy them.
He is going to enjoy taking them away. He is already pushing for things that would undermine our religious freedoms. This will escalate should he take office.

I dont see how anyone who is a Christian American can vote for this guy. He stands against just about everything we stand for. God bless America!

Can you provide more information on the specific things he's planning to do to eviscerate my religious liberties?

Of course he can't ... maybe his conspiracy is based on the candidate's birth name .... maybe it's not WASPish enough, perhaps.
