Test Yourself: Do You Really Want This Man As Your President?


Test Yourself!  How well do you really know Obama and exactly what is it about this man that qualifies him to be President?

 

Here are the rules for the test: You must describe why Obama will actually make this a better country and you must omit the following:

 

1) Because he’s African-American: (According to Martin Luther King, we judge people by their character, not the color of their skin.)

 

2) Because he talks about change : (This must be omitted, unless you are prepared to explain exactly what will change and why this change will be a good change. The word change, in and of itself, describes absolutely nothing.

 

3) Because he is a charismatic speaker: (So was Hitler. In fact, Hitler is considered one of the greatest speakers who ever lived. No, I am not comparing Obama to Hitler. Don’t even go there. Take a deep breath and try to grasp my point. I am merely pointing out why being a good speaker is not, in and of itself, a reason to be President.)

 

4) Because he’s not George Bush: (This answer would only be valid if you explained what it was about George Bush that hurt our country, and how Obama will make this right.)

 

5) Because he believes in unity: (His definition of unity, is that Republicans should do things the way Democrats want them done. Unless you can explain how this is true unity, you must omit this one as well.)

 

6) Because he’s a Christian: (You may only use this reason if you explain how one can claim to be a Christian ,yet denounce the authority of the Bible by disagreeing with what it says about hell and any other thing Obama chooses not to believe.)

 

So much for the subjects to be omitted. Here is what must be included: Since we do know some things about the man’s beliefs and voting record, in your defense of Obama, please find a way to defend the following items:

 

1) Suppression of free speech (Fairness Doctrine, Hate Speech Legislation): How do such laws square with a constitution that guarantees free speech?  Explain in full and leave out all that garbage about how the constitution is a “living breathing document.”

 

2) Infanticide: Obama voted against a bill that would have stopped infanticide in Illinois. Reconcile that position with Christianity, since the man claims to be a Christian. In fact, never mind Christianity. Just reconcile this with common human decency.

 

3) Lying: Obama claims he did not vote against this bill in Illinois. His own campaign representatives finally admitted that he did, in fact, cast this vote. They had no choice but to admit this. It was a matter of public record.

 

4) His willingness to sit down and talk to terrorists: Since any terrorist expert will tell you that such a display of weakness only encourages more terrorism, explain, please, how we will be safer with Obama as President.

 

OK. You are ready now to start. Aside from the fact that he’s an African American who talks about change and gives a good speech, why would you want to elect a spineless, lying, baby killing suppressor of free speech as President?

 

NOTE:  I know I’ve been rather hard on Obama lately but try to understand: THIS MAN WANTS TO BE OUR PRESIDENT!!!
