    Unfortunately, I am not surprised, dragonfly. Way too often this board has to be considered Christian in name only.

    This is what happens when fear and hate come together. Sad and disgusting.

    Don't know about all that anti christ stuff but I've read quite a bit of what Obama's new brain has written.

    This policy "expert" says Obama 's foreign policy is "very conventional". I take that to mean we'll get more of the same "convention". Endless meddling and bombing.

    Of course you have he's a collectivist internationalist who has no qualms about american imperialist pursuits. What's not to like? True patriots love a good ole american imperial pursuit now and then. :rolleyes:

    And...

    He's pretty much the embodiment of anti americanism. So how could you not like him?

    He is not from Illinois. He did not move here until 1985.

    I apologize for not checking out snopes myself before I posted that.

    I would love nothing more than to smear Obama, but I want to do it in truth. Again please accept my apology. I was wrong for not checking it out.

    I am in the process of studying what God has to say about the anti-Christ. If I find any similarities (other than Obama being from the East, everyone loving him and some thinking he is going to save America) I will post them.

    BTW, I do not hate Obama. He has not been a bad Senator. I just don't want him to be president.

    About as Christ-like as you, Ken, when you smear everyone BUT Obama...

    At least I apologized and said I was wrong to post untruths, albeit unknowingly. It was still wrong of me.

    By all means, check out Snopes.

    And then find another source that will give you the straight scoop without the Scopes spin.

    Yes, it was. Are you really so naive at this point in time to post junk from an email without checking it out first?

    Let's see you prove that Snopes put any spin on that article...if you can.

    There's no crime in making a mistake everybody makes them big deal. Get off her already. Haven't you got some more important things to do like cheerleading for the NWO or something?

    Poncho, if I had done something like that and claimed naivete about it the radical right on this board would have symbolically butchered me in this forum.

    I find it hard to believe that anyone who has had email and surfed the Internet for several years is still naive about the need to check out the veracity of emails before passing them along.

    Too easy.

    When a "source" like Scopes quotes a number of times from the writings of the person in question (Obama) to prove how righteous he (Obama) is, it stretches credibility to say the least.

    Could be just laziness.

    Could be Snopes has no other corroboration.

    Could be they just want to make Obama look good.

    Unbiased is certainly not the word to describe it.

    "Spin" is as good as any.

    There are 10 sources quoted besides the 2 from Senator Obama.

    Your are wrong, carpro, about the article. It's a pity that you aren't man enough to admit it.

    Very enlightening. He has been a good Senator, but you don't want him president.

    You admit he has been a good Senator, but you just can't support any democrat, is that it?

    I believe this tells more about you than it does about Obama.

    No, I'm not, but that's good advice.

    Why don't you lead by example?

    You asked for it . It was easy. Are you really so blind?

    The topper was a video of Obama refuting the claims used as proof of what...
    that Obama is the last word on the subject?

    Snopes thought so.

    In other words, you can't prove that the article debunking the article about Senator Obama is wrong at any point. That's what I figured.

    The Snopes article is correct and the radical right loses. :)

    You didn't ask me to.

    You wanted Scopes "spin" pointed out.

    Done. Wanna dance? Or just try another diversion tactic?
