Barack Hussein Obama is the farthest thing from the next Martin Luther King!
February 20th, 2008 | by admin |What do you think of this video featuring Barack Hussein Obama? How do you think the content of this video might have been different during other historical periods? Here’s what the video could have dealt with:
Video Translation #1 (Nazi Germany): I think that the decision to execute Jews is a decision that has to be made by people and that the government should make sure they have the right to do this. If they talk with their family members, friends, and clergy about whether or not it’s OK to kill a Jew I trust that these individuals will make the best decision for themselves.
Video Translation #2 (Pre-Civil Rights America): I think the decision by individuals and communities to hang African Americans is up to them and the government should not get involved in saying what’s right or wrong. I trust members of the Klu Klux Klan to make these kind of decisions on their own and I trust that they’ll make the right decisions for themselves.
You see, it’s easy to suggest that government shouldn’t legislate individual moral choices, but the problem with that logic is it leads us down the road toward anarchy. Why have any laws at all? We wouldn’t want the government interfering with our right to do whatever we want, right? Wrong.
The simple truth is that we don’t have the right to violate the rights of another individual. One of the rights guaranteed in our constitution is the right to life. So the argument that the government is interfering with a woman’s right to choose is superseded by the individual protection of life for the unborn child. It’s really quite simple but a lot of people don’t seem to have the intellect to grasp the concept or don’t want to accept it because they get some sort of sick pleasure in being able to choose if innocent people live or die. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want a president who suffers from either of those problems.
Just something to keep in mind and consider mentioning to your pro-life Catholic friends in Minnesota who have suddenly decided to support Obama because of his amazing charisma!

I think you know that I’m in full agreement with you on this issue, but it’s probably not helpful to refer to those who favor the legalization of abortion as those who “get some sort of sick pleasure in being able to choose if innocent people live or die.” I don’t know that this describes anyone in the pro-abortion camp; I think that, in general, their concerns are for the well-being of the mother and child. Where their logic falls short is in deciding that the death of a child is the best option for all concerned.

Well, I didn’t say that everyone i n the pro-abortion camp was necessarily sick and twisted like that. I think most fall into the camp of not grasping the concept of protecting the “right to life.”
However, there may very well be those who are sick and twisted and could care less about innocent lives.
History has given us plenty of examples of human beings so evil that they reach that level of depravity.

Well, that’s still a logical fallacy. You’re just guessing that there may be people like that. You’ve never actually met one, but you suppose there must be some. You are looking at history for some people who are evil and then trying to assign them to a position on abortion. I just don’t find that very helpful.

Actually, I think I have met some folks who just don’t care… I had a talk once with someone who said we need to stop worrying so much about human lives and start worrying about the earth more… He actually thought the policy China employs with population control was a very good idea.

Not caring is not the same as getting “some sort of sick pleasure.” The person you mentioned isn’t putting a correct value on human life, but he doesn’t sound sadistic.
