If you don't like what I write, if you don't like listening to me not "amen chorus" you, then don't read my responses to your bull-headedness. Don't read my posts. I question Obama's judgment and have questions regarding his character. But he is not "evil". And you will never woo American voters by saying it. You just give lefties political fodder of us being "hate-filled" kool-aid-drinking kooks.

Craig,

I am not the whole blog. If you don’t like what I write, if you don’t like listening to me not “amen chorus” you, then don’t read my responses to your bull-headedness. Don’t read my posts.

I question Obama’s judgment and have questions regarding his character. But he is not “evil”. And you will never woo American voters by saying it. You just give lefties political fodder of us being “hate-filled” kool-aid-drinking kooks.

I'm even stating your comment: "I reject the premise that Senator Obama is “evil”. You couldn't have made it more clear to me. I think I am done with this blog. I prefer NO QUARTER who is a Democrat blog, but at least they havent lost their judgment about Obama.

Try focusing like a laser beam on what I'm saying and not projecting what your partisan blinders want you to believe that I am saying.

And hiding your medical report, your birth certificate and your past associations is alright too? And ACORN’s fraud is fine also? And turning the USA into a socialist/communist country is the right thing to do in your opinion. You see no evil in that? Well I do, and you will to, when this bum becomes your next President. I can't believe what I am reading here, I guess I must be on a leftist blog and I didn't realize it yet. Maybe I should go find a real conservative blog. This one is not for me if people don't see the evil in Obama. Gee, how blind can you be? Incredible! I must be dreaming… this is a nightmare for sure.

You compare him to Jim Jones and other "evil persons like Obama". MLK and JFK I consider flawed men with some flawed policies; yet they had the ability to inspire people, to imagine, to dream, and to achieve. Part of it, of course, is due to their tragic ends that makes us want to remember only the good about them. It's this sort of language (and belief) that will cause us to turn off voters and lose this election. You do us no favors by calling Obama evil. I reject the premise that Senator Obama is "evil". I also align with most mainstream Americans in finding that belief "offensive".

Jim Jones had the same Obama’s ability to give hope to the people. Promissing them the moon… but they only got the Kool-aid. The power of faith is a very dangerous thing when it comes from evil persons like Obama, Tim Jones and Hitler. NOTHING good will arise from it.

Look at how strong the power of faith is; of what people can accomplish if they have confidence instilled in them. Faith can move mountains, even if based on a lie/fairy tale. Obama evokes that kind of self-empowerment in a good many of his supporters- those who give him a "messiah-like" quality. He may have the wrong policies for the country; but, those who support him....many are good, solid people. If they move their lives in a positive direction, if a black inner city child finds inspiration to succeed because he recognizes that someone who looks like him can "make it to the highest office", or merely any kid of any ethnicity drawing vague inspiration from the media and campaign-created image, then something good may well arise from it.
