Obama Not Antichrist, But Is Likely Supporter

Conservative Chloe has forwarded Jack van Impe's discussion of the criteria for someone to be considered the Antichrist. It is clear that Barack Obama is not the Antichrist per se, but it seems equally likely that he is closely aligned with him. Van Impe establishes specific criteria for someone to be the Antichrist.
First, he begins to call himself God. This is indeed one of Obama's characteristics. Hence, there is perhaps a connection. But the Antichrist is enmeshed in the European Union, which does not seem to be the case with Obama. However, it is also true that Obama has kept his birth information a locked secret, and there are numerous contradictions surrounding stories of his birth, such as that his mother was registered at the University of Washington at the same time that she is recorded to have given birth in Hawaii as well as a mystery as to who the father was (Franklin Marshall Davis, Barack Obama, Sr., etc.).

Is it possible that Obama was really born in the European Union? Why does he hide his vault birth certificate so aggressively, to the point of spending tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees to prevent Phil Berg from obtaining it? Moreover, Obama's religious affiliation is controversial. Some of his opponents say that he is a Muslim, while his media supporters say that he is a Christian. Impe argues that a "one-world religious system" will characterize a coming one-world dictator. Many people such as Louis Farrakhan have called Obama the "Messiah". This overlay of religious and secular power seems consistent with Impe's analysis.

While Obama may not be the "one-world dictator" he may be laying the groundwork for him. One trend in this direction is Europe's revival as a monetary power as America debases its currency and falters economically due to powers of the Federal Reserve Bank. The resulting strengthening of the Euro relative to the dollar increases the likelihood that the Euro could become the one-world currency, the role the dollar currently occupies. As the Euro becomes dominant, Europe would become the center of the world's economy. Obama's efforts to socialize and weaken the American economy, pursue inflation and redistribute wealth from productive Americans to those who do not produce would be consistent with this turn of events.

Impe writes that "Rome will again be the center of the world economically, politically, militarily, and spiritually." Given the collapse of the dollar under liberal policies, which Obama represents, and the American left's attack on human effort, freedom and the free market economic system, it seems that it has been necessary for the Antichrist to be at least supported by an attack on America "from inside" by New Age, left wing extremists in order to permit the European Union to become dominant. Obama might be playing this role.

Similarly, the current emphasis on regional alliances such as NAFTA, the European Union and ASEAN, is consistent with biblical prophecy. The emphasis on regional alliances flies in the face of economic logic, for unimpeded trade rather than regional trade barriers are economically optimal, as the economist Jagdish N. Bhagwati has pointed out. Yet, there has been increasing pressure from various quarters to break up the globe into economic regions. The Bible predicts this.

It does not appear that Barack Obama is the Antichrist for some other reasons. First, according to Impe, "Not only does (the Antichrist) have to arise out of the EU but he does not desire women." But Barack is married, although he does appear rather effeminate or unisex, and no one knows what his desires are. At the same time, there are many similarities between Obama and the Antichrist, according to Impe:

1. The Antrichrist will do according to his own will; is "a person driven by self"; and is only altruistic in order to advance his agenda.

2. He exalts and magnifies himself. The Antichrist is likely a public figure from early on who thrives on attention.

3. Verse 37 says that he will have no regard for the God of his fathers.

4. He will Honor a god of 'fortresses'. Fortresses refers to power hungry politician type.

5. He will act against the strongest world power in conjunction with a foreign god . He will advance the religion of this false god, and ultimately cause this false religion t rule over many.

6. He will cause division within the world.

Impe adds:

"Revelation says that the number of the beast is 666, and it is a number of a man. The number 6, always refers to man. Three 6's is obviously 3 men. I submit that these three men have the following roles."

1- Politician
2- Religious leader (false prophet)
3- Beast

Might Obama represent one leg of this three-legged stool?

McCain Likely to Win--Florida and Election Dynamics on His Side

Two blogs (h/t Bob Robbins and Contrairimairi) capture a re-energized McCain campaign. This information contradicts the opinions of poller Sabado who appeared on Bob Grant the other night. First, Conservative Edge notes that early voting in Florida has resulted in a stunning shift:

"In a stunning shift in poll numbers, the LA Times estimates that John McCain leads Barack Obama 49-45 of those who have already voted in Florida, Just last week, a Times poll showed Obama leading 50-47 in the Sunshine state.

"But, the news gets worse for Obama. According to Florida Governor Charlie Crist, of the total citizens who have already voted, 54% are Democrats while 30% are Republicans. If these numbers hold up, and there is not a huge defection of GOP voters from McCain, Florida could be a blowout win for McCain.

"The coup de grace for Obama may come from Israel. Exit polls for absentee voting in that country show McCain winning 3-1 over Obama, despite a higher level of registered Democrats than Republicans."

Second, Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs features an eye-opening Red State.com post from a former Hillary worker now employed in the Obama campaign who argues that:

"Barack Obama doesn’t have a chance. His only chance is to foster disorganization, chaos, despair, and a sense of inevitability among the Republicans. It has worked up until now. Joe the Plumber has put the focus on the issues again, and this scares us more than anything. Being in a position to know these things, I will rate what the Obama campaign already knows are their weak links from the most important on down."

Potential breakdowns in the Obama campaign include former Hillary voters, Sarah Palin (whom the college educated elite hate but they wouldn't vote for McCain anyhow), and Obama's radical connections.

The Fable of Little Johnny

Contrairimairi has forwarded this fable of Little Johnny. I have not confirmed the facts with the Elmira school district.

LITTLE JOHNNY

A teacher in Elmira, New York asked her 6th grade class how many of them were Obama fans. Not really knowing what an Obama fan is, but wanting to be liked by the teacher, all the kids raised their hands except for Little Johnny.

The teacher asked Little Johnny why he has decided to be different again.

Little Johnny said, "Because I'm not an Obama fan."

The teacher asked, "Why aren't you an Obama fan?"

Johnny said, "Because I'm a Republican."

The teacher asked him why he's a Republican.

Little Johnny answered, "Well, my Mom's a Republican and my Dad's a Republican, so I'm a Republican."

Annoyed by this answer, the teacher asked, "If your mom was a moron and your dad was an idiot, what would that make you?"

With a big smile, Little Johnny replied, "That would make me an Obama fan."


: ) Little Johnny - wise beyond his years.

Potential Constitutional Crisis

Reader Ms. J Kulig has sent me a link to Dr. Edwin Vieira, Jr.'s excellent post concerning a potential crisis following the possible election of Barack Obama (hopefully a non-event):

Vieira notes:

>In disposing of the lawsuit Berg v. Obama, which squarely presents the question of Obama’s true citizenship, the presiding judge complained that Berg “would have us derail the democratic process by invalidating a candidate for whom millions of people voted and who underwent excessive vetting during what was one of the most hotly contested presidential primary in living memory.” This is exceptionally thin hogwash. A proper judicial inquiry into Obama’s eligibility for “the Office of President” will not deny his supporters a “right” to vote for him-—rather, it will determine whether they have any such “right” at all. For, just as Obama’s “right” to stand for election to “the Office of President” is contingent upon his being “a natural born Citizen,” so too are the “rights” of his partisans to vote for him contingent upon whether he is even eligible for that “Office.” If Obama is ineligible, then no one can claim any “right” to vote for him. Indeed, in that case every American who does vote has a constitutional duty to vote against him.

Dr. Vieira is absolutely right. The quality of our courts have deteriorated to the point where the courts have become ringleaders of a democratic lynch mob. Vieira goes on to slice, dice and execute the judge's competence. What gives the court authority? If it is not the Constitution, then why should anyone pay attention to the courts, other than their potential threat of violence? And if that is all the courts have to offer, then perhaps honest, God fearing Americans should consider constituting a Lockean militia and removing the judicial thugs from office and sending them down the Delware River in tar and feathers.

Vieira adds:

"In fact...Every American has what lawyers call "an implied cause of action"—directly under Article II, Section 1, Clause 4 of the Constitution—to require that anyone standing for "the Office of President" must verify his eligibility for that position, at least when serious allegations have been put forward that he is not eligible, and he has otherwise refused to refute those allegations with evidence that should be readily available if he is eligible. That "Case[ ]" is one the Constitution itself defines. And the Constitution must be enforceable in such a "Case[ ]" in a timely manner, by anyone who cares to seek enforcement, because of the horrendous consequences that will ensue if it is flouted."

Ms. J Kulig asks:

"Have you received a response back yet from the FEC regarding BO's BC?

"I am extremely concerned that this is going to cause a constitutional crisis. And here's an interesting question that no one is asking: "If I vote for Barack Obama am I disenfranchising myself, aiding and abetting, committing felony treason and other crimes if Mr. Obama is not eligible to hold office?"
I thought you would enjoy reading this artcle written by a Harvard JD/Constitutional Attorney. Maybe you could post it on your blog."

My response:

I am enjoying Dr. Veira's article. I have received one rebuff after the next from the FEC and the state board of elections. I would call our election system a mismanaged sham. It is as bad as the judicial system.
