Of course. I greatly admire and respect our president! He is symbolic that, although we have a long way to go as a nation, we have made great strides to accomplish Dr. King's "Dream." President Obama has accomplished a lot at a young age and I can't help but admire and respect that!

Why does anything positive about our current president have to be tainted with "disaster"-type remarks? And my opinions of his policies have nothing to do with my love and respect for him as a our Leader and as an accomplished person. Respect for our president, whether it be the liberal policies of Clinton or the conservative direction of Reagan, should be automatic, especially among those who claim the principles of Christ as their guide.

Just calling it as I see it. He is more than a disaster he is an enemy to our country and our way of living. All the more reason not to respect him as a leader. Just because I'm a Christian and Apostolic doesn't mean I have to respect someone who approves of abortion and the gay agenda let alone one who bows to our terrorist enemies.

Well then, you're not seeing it very well. Some bible study would benefit you.

Re: Holiday Wishes for Obama

Don't care for his politics, don't know him personally so have no love/hate for him. I do wish him well as our nations leader.

Obama has nothing to do with Dr. King's dream. He was elected because of the color of his skin and not the content of his character. No one else with a similar background could have survived the primaries.

The Globalists prepared his path to power for their own purpose and we will pay for it. Others around the globe have already paid for America's folly in electing Obama as president and it is likely that the seeds have already been planted for a very bad harvest in the future that will hurt world-wide.

I don't admire and respect that.

Re: Holiday Wishes for Obama

I pray for President Obama and other leaders on a regular basis according to my understanding of my duty according to 1 Timothy 2:1-6.

However,
I did not vote for him,
I wish he were not the President,
I consider him an enemy and destroyer of our democracy,
I do not like the idea that he was the candidate of the Chicago Political Machine, that he stinks of the Chicago political sewer in which he swam for years, and that he was elected by less than honest and honorable means through the influence of the media, the unions, ACORN, and racism,
and I'll be glad to see him leave the office.

Can you explain the bolded rather than just dropping an ambiguous accusation?

So it wasn't the "content of his character?" You know, there are negative complainers that emerge from the woodwork to complain about every president, be it Reagan, Carter, Clinton....anyone. You're no different. Every president will have accusers (and of course, we know who the biblical "accuser" is, don't we?) and because he's the president, his character is an easy target for you.

His election has nothing to do with Dr. King's dream? I have the feeling that most all of the nation's African-American population would harshly disagree with you and unless you are African-American, you shouldn't make such a statement.

Your "similar background" remark sounds like Rush Limbaugh complaining about Donovan McNabb. He, deservedly, was fired, but I guess we can't fire you from here, can we?
