The McCain Obbama mindset only is what the politics as usual want. There will be no change with either of these two globalist. They both will continue to lead America down the path of global government and the New World Order. To vote for the lesser of two evils is still a vote for evil
The way that our 2 Party System has evolved has resulted in the "either/or" choice that awaits us. And the simple fact of the matter is: If you don't vote for the one closest to your position then you automatically are casting a vote FOR the one FARTHEST from your political position.

I don't like it either, but that's the way it goes. I found out a couple of years ago that most of the stuff in the grocery store (even the "good" stuff) was a deadly poison to me. I still get made walking through a grocery store because almost all of the "choices" are forbidden to me.

But to stay alive and to have any sort of part of the life I've been given I must play along with some rules that have been forced upon me.

I don't think I will enjoy most of the choices I have to make for the rest of my life - so in both the grocery market and the political market place I will have to learn to accept some things that I cannot change.

It's either that or have my vote end up tallying for a guy I even more strongly disagree with.

Re: Cast Your Vote McCain or Obama.

One thought on "the path to global government and the new world order..."

You do understand that is WHY THE UNITED STATES WAS FOUNDED IN THE FIRST PLACE, don't you?


There on the back under the pyramid you will read "Novus Ordo Seculorum." Which is Latin for "A New World Order." This is part of "the Great Seal of the United States" adopted in Congress, 1782.

The reason our founders fought the British and overthrew the monarchy, the reason why Lincoln stood up to Southern sessionism, the reason why we fought facism and communism is because of a dream for a world in which FREEDOM reigns.

Personally, if the rest of the world would just fall in line, I think the whole world would be a better place.

Brother,

I thought Pres. Lincoln stood up to the South was to keep the States united.
Remember this quote?

"My paramount object in this struggle is to save the Union, and is not either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing any slave I would do it, and if I could save it by freeing all the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that. What I do about slavery, and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps to save the Union; and what I forbear, I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union."

Nina

PS Brother, may I pm You concerning something important?

Lincoln's political history reveals him a man who was against slavery, but did not see that he had a constitutional right to end it. His political history (including supporting the Wilmot Proviso, which would have banned slavery in states gained from the land "purchased" from Mexico after the US-Mexican war) is one of the reasons why the southerners decided to take their ball and go home when he was elected. Fortunately for the slaves, once the southern states DID leave, they were no longer protected by the Constitution and Lincoln could make the war expressly about slavery once it became politically possible to do so -- in 1863.

I have never heard this explanation.

Thanks for taking the time.

It adds a different dimension to it.

Another angle to consider.

I don't believe that the United States is prophetically the global government. Personally...I believe that our place in prophecy is rather significant, but vieled. We don't know who we really are.

Re: Cast Your Vote McCain or Obama.

You guys crack me up. What, are you going to change your country with a vote for some obscurity? Pel you are dead on. Some things are about winning, some things are about being too proud to win. If you can't vote for McCain, you are letting a party that is in direct opposition to Christian life gain another foot hold.

And what is this? Someone objects to Obamination and the race card is played?? Grow up. I thought there were more intelligent people around here.

Dr. King spoke of someone being able to have success in the world regardless of the color of their skin. I hope that the minions don't decide to elect oscama just because of the color of his skin. That would be in direct contradiction to the philosophy of Dr. King that so many espouse.

Great post, I agree. I had an African American tell me the other day he was voting for Obama because black is beautiful. Funny thing, he's not all black. He wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for a white woman.

I prefer not to be put into that neat little box as I am quite disappointed with both of those canidates.
Agree!
