Obama rejects gun rights

POSTED: November 19, 2008

The election is over; the voters want change. But President-elect Obama is not on the same page as some people think he is. Obama is a left-wing elitist and, according to the National Rifle Association, will be the most extreme anti-gun president in American history. And his vice president has the same disrespect for our gun rights.

Just think, Obama will be surrounded by Secret Service bodyguards both now and for the rest of his life, paid for by taxpayers of America - that's right, the same people whom Obama wants to deny lawful gun rights. But you'll never see Obama reject his bodyguards. Oh no, not elitist Obama. Obviously, he feels his life is more precious than the average American taxpayer who couldn't afford a paid bodyguard. And yet, self- protection is the most basic God-given right we have.

Among the gun-hater groups in America is one called MoveOn.org. This far-left group raised more than $88 million for Obama and, according to Bill O'Reilly, will be looking for payback from Obama. MoveOn.org is funded by billionaire George Soros, and Soros will be looking for "San Francisco values." That is legalized narcotics and prostitution, unfettered abortion rights, legalized euthanasia and gay marriage, to name just a few social issues. Soros, a big-time contributor to MoveOn, believes America should be a libertine society where moral judgments about social behavior are unacceptable.

It looks like Obama and his extreme left-wing friends are looking for an ancient Roman type of government here in America. Remember this, that going through biblical history, every nation that committed evil in the sight of God caused God to turn his back on that nation, and thus, felt God's wrath for their actions.

Think about this when you think about change here in America. Don't let the evil ones prevail. And don't let the evil ones take away any of our constitutional rights.
