I hardly ever watch CNN. I was at the gym and decided to watch it while I was exercising. I noticed 3 interesting things while watching.
#1 There was a lengthy conversation with President Obama and the headline under his face was, "I Screwed Up". It was on the screen forever and the words were spoken many times. First of all, I wasn't too impressed that the president of the United States was using that expression. It doesn't really say class does it? That is a little side point but interesting none the less. They had the President saying this and then were going on and on about it. They were saying to each other. "Have we ever had a President say this? Have we ever heard a President admit to making a mistake?" This is apparently the most amazing thing ever to them. Of course, I thought it was interesting that even when he says he made a mistake he is applauded. The other side of this is what would have been said if this had been a past republican president? I don't think the media would have been so impressed.
#2 It was mentioned that President Obama has a 64% approval rating. They said that was really good but not as good as when he first became president as it was an 84% approval rating. It is only Feb. so I am starting to wonder where he will be in another 2-3 months. Will his approval rating be equal to the last president by then?

#3 This last observation may have been from Fox News. They had a panel on their show of several different people. There was a black gentleman with the title of Rev. His comment was very interesting. He said anyone that believes in God could NOT vote for the current president. I am sure this made a lot of people angry. How can he say such a thing? Well, it is pretty obvious to me.

On July 17, 2007, Barack Obama said this to Planned Parenthood and...
On this fundamental issue of [abortion rights], I will not yield and Planned
Parenthood will not yield. ... The first thing I'll do as president is sign the
Freedom of Choice Act. That's the first thing that I'd do. ...
What is the "Freedom of Choice Act"? It makes abortions a federal issue. It negates all state laws from parental notification to the Woman's Right to Know Laws to bans on partial-birth abortion.
The current president doesn't believe in the sanctity of life based on his willingness to not only allow abortions but broaden the scope of them. Abortion is not enough. We need to force hospitals to do it that are against it? We need to be able to have older babies to abort and allow young girls to do it secretly? Their parents shouldn't know about this?

I saw an image recently that summed it all up for me. It was talking about abortion and it said, " Would it bother us more if we used guns"? Can you imagine that? A baby is delivered and a doctor pulls out a gun and shoots it? Would we care then?
Thou shalt NOT murder
The current president must not know about or believe the scripture that says "For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat".
2 Thessalonians 3:10
That doesn't mean if people fall on hard times we don't help them. That is what we are supposed to do. The problem is just giving hand outs (stealing from someone else) and giving it to people that have no intention to work. Causing a whole generation of people that think they are entitled to the money of others. Helping a person in need for a time is one thing. Taking from someone else to provide from another person is stealing.

Thou shalt not steal.
Of course, I could go on for a long time on this topic. It would be better if we looked to the scriptures instead. Look for yourself. Do you see anything about this president that goes against the scriptures. As I told my daughter yesterday we need to pray for our president. He needs to hear from the Lord. That is the only thing that will change his perspective. He is surrounded by 'yes men' and people that believe as he does.
Let's pray that God can get through to him before it is too late for this great nation.
