Politics.
Wow oh wow, but how things can get out of hand when I’m having fun! Just as I’m seeing my kingdom flourish in the United States faster than even I ever imagined, along comes a knuckle-dragging, backwoods, bitter clinger of a wet blanket by the name of Rick Santorum! Wow oh wow, how things change.
For my non-US readers, please bear with me. The United States is going through an election year right now, and little do, er … I mean did, the boiling-frog Americans know that this election was, more than any other, a choice between policies that please moi and policies that please God.
I almost had them completely, happily, ignorantly, boiled.
But just as I thought I cold stop chopping the wood of liberal, politically correct, ungodly policies (see my last post where I was contemplating retirement!), here comes this Santorum cat saying things that have never been said by a major politician in America. Not even in the good Christian days of the U.S. of A. did a politician so explicitly state truth to the American people.
Just today the internet’s most popular news aggregator, The Drudge Report, ran the headline: “Santorum’s Satan Warning.”
What?
Why bring moi into this?
Well, I suppose I was already in this. But who does Santorum think he is, blowing my cover by pointing out to all the happy frogs the great fire licking the sides of their freedom pot? According to the Drudge Report, Santorum is quoted as saying, “Satan has his sights on the United States of America!” And,
“Satan is attacking the great institutions of America, using those great vices of pride, vanity, and sensuality as the root to attack all of the strong plants that has so deeply rooted in the American tradition.”
Wow oh wow.
Of course he’s right on all counts. Pride, vanity, and sensuality–that just about covers it. But who would have ever thought a politician would bring me into the fray like this?
And the media? They eat this stuff up. According to the media Santorum is a nut job. A religious fanatic. A dangerous fundamentalist.
Never mind that Obama can claim that Jesus told him his tax structure was just right. The media yawn when Obama acts like a Christian.
And do you know why?
Hmmmm?
Yes, that’s right! You are very perceptive! It’s because everyone in the media knows Obama doesn’t mean it.
I’ve often said that it’s not those who say they believe in God that worry me. Everyone believes in God, even atheists believe in God; atheists are just arrogant cowards. Hey, even I believe in God.
But what worries me are people who say they believe in God and act like it. It’s those who take God seriously and believe his Word to be truth to live by.
Those folks scare me.
And the media.
And some are noticing. Note the Wall Street Journal article today addressing this issue. In the article entitled, “Sex, Lies and Rick Santorum“, author William McGurn looks at “the double standard on social issues” in the US.
McGurn provides the example of veiws on marriage:
When Barack Obama was campaigning for president in 2008, he declared that marriage is between a man and a woman. For the most part, his position was treated as a nonissue.
That’s right. But,
Now Rick Santorum is campaigning for president. He too says that marriage is between a man and a woman. What a different reaction he gets.
Right again. And why? McGurn explains:
There’s no mystery why. Mr. Santorum is attacked because everyone understands that he means what he says.
He means what he says! Yes, he says he’s a Christian and acts like it!
And then McGurn dangerously exposes one of my greatest secrets:
President Obama, by contrast, gets a pass because everyone understands—nudge nudge, wink wink—that he’s not telling the truth. The press understands that this is just one of those things a Democratic candidate has to say so he doesn’t rile up the great unwashed.
Wow oh wow!
You see, my friends, the plain fact is that Santorum is a Christian, a God-believer, one who takes God seriously.
And Obama?
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha ha ha ha!
Oh, sometimes I crack myself up.
But it’s not a laughing matter, my good servants. Santorum recently called out Obama’s “radical Islamic” policies and questioned Obama’s biblical world view, for example. And Santorum is not the only one questioning Obama’s Christianity. Even Billy Graham’s son, Franklin, is out today saying he
“was not sure if Obama was a true Christian and that he could not definitively say that the president was not a Muslim.”
And even worse, Mr. Graham is smacking the nail of truth in one great swing by further stating with respect to Obama’s self-identification as a Christian:
“He’s come out saying that he’s a Christian,” Mr. Graham said of Mr. Obama in an interview on the MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “The question is, what is a Christian?”
Wow oh wow!
What is a Christian?
My friends, let me share how it appears from my vantage point.
Mr. Santorum? He’s a Christian.
Mr. Obama?
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Oh, if there wasn’t a good chance he might be defeated in his bid to continue ruling the United States and my kingdom on earth, it would be funny.
As it is, it’s just terrible.
Wow oh wow!
