Obama's Dishonesty on 'The Least of These!'

Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


There is in fact little resemblance between Obama's manipulation and sub-categorization of who he includes in his definition and how Jesus himself defined them.

Obama seems to be targeting his specific message to economic issues only, and Jesus certainly did not.

In the New Testament it is easy to see how much Jesus Christ love children. When his disciples attempted to shoo them away because they would "bother" their Lord, Christ rebuked them and reminded everyone listening that it is only the faith that is simple, trusting, and pure--like that of a child--that ultimately will save them.

There is the reminder of how evil Christ himself felt about those who would harm even a hair on those He loved. And though the term "disabled" does not appear in the New Testament text, if we are to understand anything about Christ's view of children, the innocent, and those who were at a disadvantaged position in life we would have to hold that children who face challenge in mental or physical regards would be very special indeed to Him.

Obama according to his own audio recordings, and more importantly his votes on the matter views children as a burden, a weight, and a problem. Additionally he has even embraced that 1938 German concept of "a life not worthy to be lived." There is no other way to classify his position on the matter of infants born at Christ hospital in suburban Chicago (operated by Obama's own "church") who were allowing disabled children who had been born to die from neglect and starvation. And while every other Senator on the federal level found it grotesque and abhorrent - Barack Obama FOUGHT to keep the practice legal. He chaired the committee, he called for the votes, he saw the language finalized, and then he voted to keep the practice in place.

And then... he lied about doing so!

He did at least until he was forced to admit the truth from documents uncovered this year.

There will be a series of other arenas that I will examine in the weeks to come, but on Obama's own self-elevated issue of his treatment of the forgotten, downtrodden, and overlooked it is clear that his priorities have never been that of Christ's and though he may say otherwise now...

His record, his plans, and his manipulations tell a different story!

It's nice to know that I am not a true Christian. Your posts are always so informative and well thought out.

OBAMA THE UN-AMERICAN !
NO REAL CHRISTIAN COULD VOTE FOR THIS DUDE OR ANY OTHER LIBERAL-DEMOCRAT.
