… I see thousands of hands lifted in adulation for a man whose respect for human life is despicable beyond comprehension. Surely this is a sign of the LORD’s judgment upon our nation. With the Democratic party having unchecked power over all branches of government, sweeping changes will alter this country for generations. “Thy will be done” (spoken to the LORD of heaven and earth) must be our prayer tonight.
As I see the mob cheering

The views of the mobs, weeping women, emotional newscasters were absolutely chilling.
Possibly more frightening is the idea of what would have happened in our cities last night had McCain been announced as the winner.
“However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.” I Cor. 2: 6
I don’t know what will change, some things will. . . but I don’t think entirely too much. Many things were close, and I think the Democrats will push slowly, at least for the first two years, lest they get a repeat of 1994. This isn’t the time for radical change – unless you mean Colorado defining human life at conception and mandating that all humans have protection under the law. . . .
In fact, it might be better the harder the democrats pushed.
Oh, wait, I read the Colorado one backwards. . .never mind that.
Come Lord Jesus, Come quickly is about all I have to say. I’m trying not to worry too much but I’m human and I can think and I too hope they get excited and push too hard in the next two years.
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14
We better hit our knees hard.
I truly hope I’m wrong – but I think that last night, the window closed on the possibility of seeing the end 0f the scourge of abortion in my lifetime.
Kay -
I was worried about that as well. We live in a fairly safe neighborhood, yet I cleared all the valuables out of my car last night, imagining riots and looting if McCain won. I was driving through DC at about 5pm last evening, and there were large groups shouting and spilling over into the streets near one polling place. I’m usually not afraid in the city, but I wouldn’t want to be around if a crowd like that turned ugly.
They cheered someone who “gave them hope” because they are hopeless- and don’t know why. The effects of this election will reverberate for decades, and I have a bad feeling that the reverberations will not be good.
Thank God and praise His Name. Jesus Christ is the reason for our hope- a Hope that does not wax, wane, or die and is superior to Obama in every respect. “Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.” Matt 10:28
“13Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? 14But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. “Do not fear what they fear[a]; do not be frightened.”[b] 15But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have.” 1 Peter 3:13-15
I heard something on NPR this morning. It was an African-American journalist talking about how amazing this is…and it is, I’ll give him that.
“But with Obama getting 52% of the vote, that means that 1 out of every 2 were willing to vote for a black guy” he said.
But what he was not willing to see what that it was even more amazing than that. Very few of the people who voted against Obama voted against him because of his skin color. They voted against his policies, his lack of experience, and the unknown factors about him. They took him seriously. They voted for him or against him the same way they voted for or against Carter, Kerry, Doukakis, or Clinton. It was about the issues. I have heard more about people who voted FOR him because of his skin color than those who voted against him because of that.
That wouldn’t have happened very long ago.
I vote based on political worldview, character, and experience. I voted against Obama because he believes that it is okay to kill babies.
