Obama is the new President - Westboro is scared

I would be lying if I said that I wasn't excited about Barack Obama being our 44th President of the United States of America.

It's an understandable occurrence that not everyone is thrilled with the president elect. Not everybody has to be happy about it.

And just because I like Obama, doesn't mean I support everything he believes. I definitely do not subscribe to the thought pattern that this guy will crap rainbows and bleed miracles.

But then there are the people who are going to go to the extremes - like the Westboro Baptist Church. These people are certifiable, but at least they are equal opportunity haters. Like Obama, they hated George W. Bush, Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson, victims of Katrina, teenagers killed in car accidents, soldiers who die overseas and the occasional state or two.

No kidding, these people claim to hate Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Kooky right?

Their Web site - godhatesfags.com - gets a pretty fair share of hits. I personally frequent their site to keep tabs on whether they will be paying a visit to Tennessee. At the very least, it would make for a great news story.

But I digress. They recently posted a "news release" about president-elect Barack and notes how he is the "Antichrist." Personally, if these people ever truly wanted to see the Antichrist, all they would have to do is look in a mirror.

The following is their "news release." Enjoy.

BARACK OBAMA IS ANTICHRIST

GOD IS PUNISHING AMERICA BY MAKING HIM
PRESIDENT TO FURTHER CURSE THIS EVIL NATION

Antichrist fit Obama like a glove; to wit: The Man of Sin, the Beast, the Son of Perdition, That Wicked One (i.e., That Lawless One), who wrests, or twists, the Scripture to his own destruction. 2 Pet. 3:16.

By his own pronouncements, and by the events as they have miraculously developed on the ground, presidential candidate - Sen. Barack Obama - is the Antichrist. The word Antichrist means "he that openly withstands Christ, being diametrically opposed to Christ."

Sodomite America deserves Antichrist as her president.

This evil, black Nimrod is on record as supporting same-sex marriage and the wholesale murder of babies; and, his basic theology is pure Arminian heresy, consisting of two Satanic lies:

1) God loves everybody; and,

2) Man has a free will.

He has shredded every part of the Bible which proves him and his sycophants - (i.e., his worshipers) - to be lying murderers and blaspheming hypocrites.

All the Bible aliases for "But the word of the Lord endureth forever. And this is the word which by the gospel is preached unto you." 1 Pet. 1:25.

"Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man; but holy men of Gods pake as they were loved by the Holy Ghost." 2 Pet. 1:20,21.

Thus Antichrist Obama has committed blasphemy against the Holy Ghost, Mat . 12:31,32. And Antichrist Obama is bound for Hell for his sins against the Holy Ghost, "cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone." Rev. 19:20.

Amen.

Problem: If this is such an "evil nation," why are the Westboro followers still here?

Answer: If they went anywhere else in this world, they would probably be killed.

Problem: When did Obama openly withstand Christ? It's not like he's declared Mortal Kombat against God.

Answer: Obama is a Christian - just not a WESTBORO Christian. Which means he's really not a Christian to the Westborians.

(Side note: I always find it amusing when Christians hate other Christians. It's like the deaf hating the deaf for being deaf. Now THAT'S hypocrisy at its best Westboro.)

Problem: There is no scripture presented to support the notion that Obama is the Antichrist.

Answer: The Westboro Baptist Church consists of inbred, knuckle-dragging, mouth-breathing, narrow-minded, unhappy-with-their-own-pathetic-existences hillbillies led by a senile, perverted, closeted homosexual named Fred Phelps. Sun rise, sun set.

Obama isn't perfect, but McCain was farther from. I know that everyone can't wait to see what Obama will do, but I really don't expect him to do a lot. Mostly I'm just curious to see how he helps our country's current situations.

In fact, I don't even expect him to get to do or "change" anything that he really wants to in his four years. All I really expect of Obama is for him to work his hardest to clean up the mess we are currently in.

War, economic chaos, social injustice, primitive educational standards. If he can just begin to heal any of these things, I will consider his time in office a success.

So congratulations Barack Obama, 44th President of the United States of America. I wish you the best of luck in leading and representing me, my family, my friends, my country.

And please don't screw up. I really can't stand when the Westborians think they have the right to gloat.
