Re: Obama Enjoys Baseball Game While Our Allies Su

Obviously Jesus is King. I put my trust in the Name of the Lord. Yet scripture lets us know we should be concerned about those who are in authority and our hope should be a quiet and peaceable life, for this is good and acceptable unto God. Elections matter. Presidencies matter. Laws and governance matters. It impacts our daily lives. My God cares about my daily life and those that influence it. So I will voice my opinions concerning my president and what he is doing or isn't doing. I communicate my feelings about it here and I am frankly not interested in your opinion of it. Of course, you have a right to express it here. And I'm almost always 100% certain you'll chime in---because it's that important.

Then do just that, and pray for the leadership that you may live in peace. Not support the leadership that they may use the waterboarding on you. Big difference. God places the leadership over your nation as that nation so well deserves. Including the basest of men Daniel 4:17.

But I'm fair, if you post something with merit I will pat you on back, if not I'll pat you on the head.

With all that is going on in the world to be concerned about and you're getting your tighty whiteys all in a wad over the suggestion that water boarding might make a comeback? Good Lord.

You really look like you aren't a big picture guy. Or someone who looks far into the future of a situation enough to prevent yourself from getting caught in the crack. Anyone who understands history, knows that angry morons who have traits of imbalance, shouldn't be the guy you hand over missile codes to. Nor, should you advocate the individual have the keys to Abu Ghraib prison. Donald Dump telling us that he is going to protect us by waterboarding our enemies can only be translated one way. If this lunatic ever, ever, got the rest of the imbeciles in Washington to go his way (which I really doubt) then Habib, Hakim, and Ali will not ever get to see the waterboard. But people like you and I who have opinions, and like to voice our opinions. We get to do the Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello to test waterboard a go go!

But, like history has already proved out in triplicate, guys like you don't wake up until their mouth is stuffed with a wet towel.
