  Job Creators Prefer McCain 4-To-1 Over Obama  

There is another factor at work in this year’s election that makes polls and predictions more unreliable than usual.

That factor is race.

Barack Obama’s string of victories in early Democratic primaries against far better known white candidates shows that large segments of the American population have moved beyond race.

It is Barack Obama and his supporters who have hyped race, after his large lead in the polls began to shrink or evaporate, as more of the facts about his checkered career came out.

Almost any criticism of Obama has been equated with racism, even if there is no connection that can be seen under a microscope. Barack Obama himself started this trend when he warned that his opponents were going to try to scare the public with various charges, including a statement, ‘And did I say he was black?’

McCain said no such thing.

Palin said no such thing.

But those who support Obama—and this includes much of the media—are acting as if they just know that this is the underlying message.  Congressman John Lewis has likened Senator McCain to George Wallace.  Congressman John Murtha has condemned a whole section of the state of Pennsylvania as ‘racists’ because they seem reluctant to jump on the Obama bandwagon.  Senator Harry Reid has claimed that linking Obama to deposed and disgraced Fannie Mae CEO Franklin Raines is racist, since they are both black—as if the financial and political connection between the two does not exist.

Much is being made of the fact that, in past elections, some white voters who told pollsters that they are going to vote for a black candidate did not in fact do so, so that a black candidate with a lead in the polls ended up losing on election day. This is supposed to show how much covert racism there is. It might instead show that people don’t want to be considered racists by pollsters because they are leaning toward someone other than the black candidate.

In other words, the media themselves helped create the charged atmosphere in which some people give misleading answers to pollsters to avoid being stigmatized.” — Thomas Sowell

Prayer For November 04, 2008 Presidential Election:

It seems prayer still upsets some people. This interesting prayer was given in Kansas at the opening session of their Senate. When Minister Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they heard:

Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done.

• We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.



• We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.



• We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.



• We have killed our unborn and called it choice.



• We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.



• We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem..



• We have abused power and called it politics.



• We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.



• We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression.



• We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh, God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and set us free. Amen!

The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked out during the prayer in protest. In 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Rev. Wright is pastor, logged more than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 of those calls responding negatively. The church is now receiving international requests for copies of this prayer from India, Africa and Korea.

Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio program, 'The Rest of the Story,'and received a larger response to this program than any other he has ever aired.

--------------------------------------------------

With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called 'one nation under God.'

If possible, please pass this prayer on to your friends. 'If you don't stand for something, you will fall for everything.'

Think about this: If you forward this prayer to everyone on your e-mail list, in less than 30 days it would be heard by the world.

How many people in your address book will not receive this prayer.....do you have the guts to pass it on?

Love & God Bless

that is upright in the way is abomination to the wicked.”

“The true hypocrite is the one who ceases to perceive his deception;
the one who lies with sincerity.”

God bless America!
