And it doesn't surprise me that you twist it in order to exalt yourself.
It's a Sin to Disrespect the President and to not Submit to his Authority

You're a hypocrite, for I know full well you did the same or worse in criticizing Romney, and I'd say it is a better-than-average guess you exhibited the same negativity and disrespect you haughtily accuse others of directing at the Great Pretender, when you wrote of or spoke of President George W. Bush
You think people have short memories, and you can escape having your own hypocrisy thrown up in your face? Think again! -

His caveat for the Romney-bashing was Romney wasn't president, so it was OK> I'm sure Zaac would have accepted his authority, had he won.

By the way, Zaac, it occurred to me that, since the apostles encourage believers to honor the king, and since the apostles were Jewish, our question may be best served by examining the political commentary within the book of Kings found in the Jewish Scriptures. Jewish scholarship attributes the chronicling of these books to priests who were contemporaries of the kings. These priests highlighted the major accomplishments of each king, to each one's glory. But they also had another job, that of making a special point of summarizing the reign of each leader by evaluating his conduct with one of two general statements: Either "He did good in the sight of the LORD," or "He did evil in the sight of the LORD."
Priests were not limited to simply confronting political figures from the safety of their sacred halls, nor were they the only ones who made bold assertions directly in the presence of kings. Countless prophets within the Scriptures are on record for confronting the poor conduct of a king. In fact, when Elijah's protégé Elisha is summoned into the presence of both the King of Judah and the King of Israel, he says to King Jehoram:
2 Kings 3, NASBWhere's that fit in your philosophy of respect for a bad leader, Zaacaroo? That's backhanded "respect" if I ever read it, and it was said to his face! We can't get before the Great Pretender's face, or else at least one of us here would repeat what we have written on these electronic pages.
14 ... "As the LORD of hosts lives, before whom I stand, were it not that I regard the presence of Jehoshaphat the king of Judah, I would not look at you nor see you." -
Yall act like this man is in office preaching heresy when yall are really pee'ed about money and stuff. -

And my eternity is not affected by you mislabeling something you don't like as "sin".
Admonishment rejected. -

The only thing I ever said about Dubya, because I know the things that I have said, is that he was 100% absolutely wrong when he said that Christians and Muslims worship the same god.

How about making an idol of one's self? Obama was once asked if he believed sin exists, and he said "Yes." But when asked to define sin, he said, "Being out of alignment with my values."
He said he is offended by the notion that all people need Christ in order to be saved.
Hardly. But yours is most assuredly an attempt to call a hopelessly lost sinner a sinless man. That's precisely what your statement initially quoted in this post attempts to do, and there's nothing funny about that. -
Murder is a sin. But Obama says it's a "woman's right" as well as his. He maintains he has the right to kill people he "suspects" of being involved in "terrorism". For anyone else to kill a person on suspicion alone would be murder.
Bearing false witness is a sin and Obama blames everyone else for the things he and his ilk have done. He is a man that is definitely in need of a savior and I ain't talk about the state neither.
