"BARACK OBAMA IS FRIGHTENING!"

Barack Hussein Obama, in an interview on the ABC morning show "Good Morning America" gave me a great reason to worry about the future of our country, should he be elected President. As a man of God, I don't believe in getting involved too deeply in politics. But I have become increasingly concerned over this phenomenon called "Barack Hussein Obama."

I saw yesterday a crowd assembled in Oregon that would rival the numbers of a Billy Graham crusade, or a Papal visit to Manila. They were all gathered to listen to Barack Hussein Obama speak. That does not worry me so much. When I saw the photo of the massive crowd, it reminded me of a "drive-in movie."

Some of you may remember a drive-in movie. The huge screen stands blank and completely exposed to the elements most of the time. But for a few hours a week, in the dark of night, a projector cranks up and projects onto that blank screen the "feature of the week." By the time that the sun has gone down, the lot is full of cars, trucks, and vans. Everyone in the lot opens their driver's side window, drags the speaker inside their vehicle, turns up the volume, and enjoys that blank screen for a few hours.

As a Pastor I hesitate to say this, but a good bit of what went on at drive-in theaters had nothing to do with enjoying the featured film. It was more about the mood, and the darkness. My point is that Obama is a great projector screen. I see him as a blank screen on whom anyone can project their hopes and dreams. Until now, I have not been concerned with his candidacy for the highest office in the United States. I assumed that even if he were elected President he would destroy the Democrat Party forever.

But this article from ABC News about his appearance on Good Morning America causes me great concern. Hussein was asked about the Tennessee Republican Party video that questions his wife's patriotism. This is what he said:

"But I do want to say this to the GOP. If they think that they're going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful. Because that I find unacceptable," he said.

This is frightening! Barack says that the GOP "should be careful." Because he finds it "unacceptable."

So, what does the great Barack Hussein Obama intend to do if the GOP does make Michelle an issue in the campaign? After all, it is "unacceptable" to him. Is he going to call down fire and brimstone from Heaven? Is he going to turn the Mississippi River red with blood? Is he going to put a pox on Nashville, or on country music? Is he going to pick up a snake by the tail and make John McCain's magicians top that one?

This man is frightening! He has become so full of himself that he really believes he is able to control political forces simply because he finds them "unacceptable." I shudder to think what damage a Hussein presidency would cause to our nation, and to the world.
