Given Enough Reasons.....

I'm confused by all the Obamans out there. This post says it quite well:
I just believe they’re mis-informed. I wish people could give me at least five valid reasons that they’re voting for [Obama] other than
 “He’s going to bring change.” Because “change” can mean a lot of different things, and unfortunately in Obama’s case... all the wrong things. His domestic and
 foreign policy are typical liberal fare. But somehow he has this amazing ability to make you think he agrees with you. 
I'm also confused by my friends who think McCain and Obama are devil twins. He lists these facts, laying those qualms to rest:

Experience - You’ll hear the slanted media downplay the importance of experience. But the truth is that in America we’ve always valued experience. Why? Because it leads to more informed decision making. John McCain has been in Congress for 26 years to Obama's 4 years. Obama has sided with Democrats his entire congressional career. McCain has fought AGAINST republicans when he needed to, and is disliked by many in his own party because of it. He's not a typical old Washington conformist like say... Joe Biden. He's a politican that's actually accomplished something. Experience is valuable, especially at such a crucial time in our nation.

Ending the War - McCain is the only candidate that can bring a responsible end to the War in Iraq. Unlike Obama, he actually understands the intricacies of modern combat and how it effects the world. He'll work with the Pentagon to devise a phased withdrwal but not at the expense of

 loosing everything we've fought for. Obama just wants to cut our losses and bring an immediate end to this war. That's unrealistic and could be potentially devastating for the nation of Iraq.

Life- John McCain has vigorously fought to uphold the sanctity of life. Obama on the other hand completely show's himself for what he really is in regards to this issue. He's voted against the "Born Alive Protection Act"; a bill that among other things, would protect infants that were born during failed abortions. There are documented stories of these babies being left in soiled linen closets to die. Ted Kennedy, Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, and John Kerry all voted FOR the Born Alive Protection act. Obama was the ONLY one that voted against it. This is extreme people. It's simple: Obama is Pro-Abortion. McCain is Pro-Life.

The Economy- Obama is all about wealth re-distribution. It’s classic socialism. Penalize the rich and give it to everyone else. That idea works AGAINST capitalism (the economic principle that’s made our nation the wealthiest in the world). John McCain is about stabilizing our economy by keeping keeping Wall Street accountable and bringing reasonable government regulation so that financial power isn’t abused. He has practical ways for giving money BACK to the people. He wants to double the tax

 credit for parents from $3500 to $7000. McCain understands that people are struggling and wants to help... but he’ll do it in a way that doesn’t compromise the free market.


This election is about more than the classic evangelical issues. There are so many things at stake here. The McCain/Palin ticket certainly isn’t perfect, but I have no doubt that they are the best people to be in the White House. Please prayerfully consider your vote, and pray for our nation to come back to God.
