This is not a surprise, of course. Indeed, it would have been a surprise if he hadn't. Nearly the entire Democratic Party has given itself over to a deliberate rejection of Christianity and the values upon which the United States was founded. As I have noted before many times, America's continued degeneration into an immoral, hedonistic swamp is wholly in line with history and Biblical teaching--further confirmation of the truth of Bible, incidentally, which teaches, and illustrates with historical examples, that God cannot be mocked forever.
Economically, look at Europe today. That's where the Democrats are taking America. And America will get there, some day, regardless of who wins the election this year. This year's election will simply indicate how far the United States has gone towards European style fascism (it's not socialism, it's fascism), and how deep the immoral quagmire has become. And again, none of this surprises me in the least.
No, really the only reason I'm even posting about this is to ponder an interesting question. Regarding the queer "marriage" question, I wonder whether the "Reverends" Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Jeremiah Wright are going to support God and marriage as He intends it--or Barack Obama and Sodom and Gomorrah? It's a clear choice. Which is more important to them--the principles of the religion they supposedly are ministers for...or the color of their own skin?
I'm not a betting man, of course, but if I were, I'd bet every dime I had that those three men will continue to support Barack Obama. And so will 90% of the black people in America. To their own destruction.

I confess to being a pessimist and a cynic; it is hard to be even moderately educated in the Bible and history and have a cheery outlook on humanity's prospects for the near future (having clinical depression doesn't help, either). I've tended to believe that Barack Obama will win re-election this November, simply because the numbers of government dependents and God-haters has been increasing steadily over the years and, at some point (if they don't already), they will outnumber those who still believe in hard work, virtue, excellence, and Christian morality. I'm not so sure about this election, however, and it is possible that Obama could lose. He is so incredibly incompetent and unqualified, he's a joke of a President, and millions of American people are utterly fed up with the condition of the country--a direct result of godless liberalism and the Democratic Party (and a gutless Republican Party hasn't helped much). Many people--having been educated in government schools--don't understand what the problem is, but they do sense that something is terribly wrong with America, and Barack Obama represents that. His endorsement of queer "marriage" is a direct attack on the traditional values of the United States and an insult to God and thousands of years of human existence. The very fact that pea-brained parasites like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton are considered seriously by the national media is further evidence of how far America has descended into an ignorance and moral turpitude. Wise people can see that; the question is, are there enough wise people left in America to vote such bumbling fools like Obama out of office?
I couldn't help but laugh, along with millions of other people, at the results of the West Virginia Democratic primary yesterday. Some prison inmate in Texas paid the fee to get on the ballot and he got 40% of the vote against Obama. This, of course, was to send a message of how many people--Democrats in West Virginia--are disgusted with Obama. It was an insult to him, and it was intended to be. But it further illustrates how much of a joke this man is, if the people of West Virginia are willing to stoop so low--really degrading the office of the Presidency--by voting for a convicted criminal. But the one who is really degrading the office is...Barack Obama. Frankly, I would have voted for the Texas inmate, too. There is absolutely no way he could do more harm to the country than Barack Obama has done.
The Democrats are in trouble, there's no question about that. The unions in Wisconsin were able to get enough signatures to have a recall election against Republican governor Scott Walker, but the results yesterday of the primary for that election were interesting. Walker was the only Republican in that party's primary; no Republican even had to vote because Walker is going to be the candidate. But yet, he received more votes than the two Democratic candidates combined. Ultimately, this doesn't mean anything, of course; the election is next month (I think). But it does seem to indicate that Republican voters are motivated. And scared. And they have every right to be.
The Presidential election, of course, isn't until November; that's an eternity in politics. The fact that Obama's approval numbers are still in the 40s--when he should be laughed out of office--is another fair indication of how far gone America truly is. Mitt Romney doesn't inspire a lot of people; but Barack Obama does, and mainly he inspires people to vote against him. Yet, don't underestimate the Democratic political machine. They've succeeded in putting more and more people on the government dole, which is exactly what they wanted, and most of those people will vote for Obama. Add to that the hedonistic crowd and minorities...I'm still not optimistic that Obama will be defeated, but he and Vice-President Buffoon might just incompetently bumble their way out of the White House.
