Is The Obama Administration Evil?
Tuesday, 20 March 2012 12:00 J.D. Longstreet
Back in the 1970's, a novel was written by "Thomas Luke," a nom de plume (by the way) for Graham Masterton. The title of the book was/is "The Hell Candidate."
The premise of the story is that a candidate for President of the United States makes a pact with Satan to secure the presidency. The reader follows "the hell candidate" through the campaign, which, of course, he wins.
OK. Before you ask -- yes, I did read the novel, back when it was published in the seventies. No pun intended -- that cussed book made a heck of an impression. It was right up my alley -- politics and religion, er, possibly NON-religion? Whatever.
("The Hell Candidate" by Thomas Luke is available at Amazon HERE.
So why am i making reference to Mr. Masterton's book? Because America is in the midst of a presidential campaign and I am beginning to feel as if there is another Hunter Peal in the running. (Hunter Peal was the hell candidate in the book of the same name.)
Look. I've been around for a rather long time and this presidential campaign isn't my first rodeo. Even before I could vote I was helping at my local Board of Elections on election nights. I was HOOKED! I still am -- sorry to say.
Where am I going with this? Here -- Obamacare is a piece of legislation drafted in Hell and, if NOT signed by Satan himself, then it certainly has his seal of approval stamped (in glowing red letters) diagonally across the signature page.
Under Obamacare I am going to have to pay for abortions that my faith tells me are flat-out wrong. I stand with the Catholic Church in their opposition to Obamacare's forcing them to violate their religious faith and commit a sin.
Now we learn, that under Obamacare, voluntary sterilization of young women (and young men) will be offered free for women -- girls-- as young as fifteen years of age!
Just so I am clear on this -- in my opinion -- this is pure evil.
It violates the Free Exercise of Religion clause in the 1st Amendment to the Constitution. It will force millions of the Judeo-Christian faith to violate their religion -- to commit sin. To force millions of people to endanger their very souls is nothing short of demonic. Obamacare absolutely has Satan's endorsement.
The man behind this mass abomination is Barack Hussein Obama, President of the United States -- and -- current candidate for a second four-year term.
The scriptures tell us plainly a man cannot serve two masters. So, it seems to me, that folks of the Judeo-Christian faith have to make a decision, no matter their political party preference, this November. The choice is plain. We people of faith must decide whether we stand with our God, or with Obama. As a Christian myself, the choice is very clear and very stark. It is a choice between good and evil.
The progressives, the socialists, the secularists in the Obama Administration and in the Democratic Party are fueling this drive toward population control (For that's what it really is.) in the US.
How long, we must ask, before the voluntary sterilization becomes mandatory? It is a fair question considering how the left uses incrementalism to advance their agenda.
The "environuts" seem to feel there are simply too many people on the planet and to save the earth it is absolutely essential to get rid of as many human beings as possible. Better yet, stop them from ever being born
Yes, there really is a war on Christianity in America and it is leading toward religious persecution for Christians and Jews in America. The Obama Administration is the prime mover, Satan's generals, if you please.
It is past time for America to wake up and see the Obama Administration for what it really is -- evil.
It is clear that America is already on the road to a godless society -- and -- a totalitarian society. The Obama Administration is shredding our constitutional rights. Obama has, himself, made clear that he chafes under the constraints of the Constitution and especially the Bill of Rights.
Do not count on the Supreme Court overturning Obamacare. If I were a betting man, I'd bet that they will not do so. The ONLY way this nation will be rid of that abomination from hell is to repeal it outright.
I, along with a few million of my fellow Christians, am going to the polls in November to vote against evil. As we have been warned for a very long time, all that is necessary for evil to succeed is for good men to do nothing.
There is the story told of the mother of a boxer at ringside watching her boxer son being beaten to a pulp in the ring. She notices that beside her is a priest. So, in desperation she turns and says, "Oh, father, won't you please pray for my son. You see the beating he is taking." The priest replies, "Sure, I'll pray for him -- but it would really help if your son would fight."
There's a lesson for folks of the Judeo-Christian faith in this story. Praying is good, but it would be a great help if we got up off out backsides and put up a real fight.

It increasingly appears to us that Obama is not well. He is delusional. The Puff Ho is reporting that Obama said that FOX News is calling him a Muslim 24/7. Really? Is there another FOX News channel that I am unaware of? Obama is scary, viciously nutz. Who ever says that on FOX? Ever?
If Americans think Obama is Muslim (and I am not altogether sure that they do, more leftist trash propaganda) it's because of his pro-jihad, pro-Muslim Brotherhood, anti-Israel policies. If Americans think he's Muslim, it's because he favors Islam over all other religions.
Barack Obama Reportedly Blamed Fox News For Hurting His Popularity Huff Po
President Barack Obama told labor leaders that Fox News had convinced voters he was a Muslim, according to a new book that will be released Tuesday.
"Showdown: The Inside Story of How Obama Fought Back Against Boehner, Cantor, and the Tea Party," by journalist David Corn, recounts a private meeting where Obama reportedly detailed his frustration with the outlet.
Corn writes that after the midterm elections, Obama told labor leaders in December 2010 that he held Fox partly responsible for him "losing white males."
"…Fed by Fox News, they hear Obama is a Muslim 24/7, and it begins to seep in…The Republicans have been at this for 40 years. They have new resources, but the strategy is old," Corn recounted Obama as saying.
Obama has taken on Fox publicly as well. Last week, he took a swipe at Fox correspondent Ed Henry over a question on gas prices, and asked last year what he thought about Fox, the president told Rolling Stone, "The golden age of an objective press was a pretty narrow span of time in our history. Before that, you had folks like Hearst who used their newspapers very intentionally to promote their viewpoints. I think Fox is part of that tradition -- it is part of the tradition that has a very clear, undeniable point of view. It's a point of view that I disagree with. It's a point of view that I think is ultimately destructive for the long-term growth of a country that has a vibrant middle class and is competitive in the world. But as an economic enterprise, it's been wildly successful. And I suspect that if you ask Mr. Murdoch what his number-one concern is, it's that Fox is very successful."
Obama's communications director, Anita Dunn, engaged in even harsher criticism, saying in 2010, "The reality of it is that Fox News often operates almost as either the research arm or the communications arm of the Republican Party."

Outlaw Mountain Men, Extremists Roam The Rockies
By Laura Zuckerman
Reuters
March 16, 2012
One is a loner who has eluded capture on Utah's rugged Cedar Mountain for five years. Another is hiding out in
the mountain forests of western Montana, wanted for attempted murder.
They are extreme versions of the self-reliant, independent-thinking frontiersmen who have long roamed the
American West.
From wanted criminals to the more eccentric "Phantom Pooper" or "Dugout Dick," a wide range of outlaws and
drifters live off the land in the rugged Rocky Mountains, folk heroes to the militia movement and a source of
chagrin for law enforcement.
Among the more storied is Troy James Knapp, 44, a loner wanted for burglaries of resort cabins near Zion
National Park in Utah. In his five years in the wild, he has lived off land so rugged the average visitor stocks his
four-wheel drive with emergency supplies.
Legend about Knapp's uncanny outdoor skills and hardiness has grown along with the thefts he is accused of
committing - frequently of firearms - and the threats he has made against a local sheriff in the forested high
country of southern Utah called Cedar Mountain.
The snowshoe-clad survivalist has out-maneuvered authorities in manhunts, one as recently as last month when
a reported sighting of a rifle-toting figure sent police in camouflage and bullet-proof vests pouring into the woods
on foot and by air.
Knapp is one of a number of fugitives thought to be holed up in the vast back country of the Rocky Mountains, a
region where self-sufficiency is almost a religion and separatist and militia movements have found fertile ground.
The forbidding mountainscape has given rise to characters such as 19th century trapper and explorer Kit Carson,
and has acted as a magnet for modern-day mountain men and outlaws such as Claude Dallas.
Dallas was convicted in 1982 of manslaughter in the slayings of two Idaho game wardens investigating him for
poaching while living off the canyon lands of southwestern Idaho.
After the killings, Dallas fled into the wilderness and eluded police for months. During his time on the run, he
gained cult status among anti-government militiamen and was portrayed in a popular ballad as a renegade hero.
FOLK HERO OR CRIMINAL?
Aided by survival skills a U.S. marshal has likened to those of American frontiersman Davy Crockett, Knapp and a
handful of other back country drifters are folkloric figures to fiercely anti-authority loners and groups of the
American West, and their hostility seems to center on law enforcement officials.
In Cedar Mountain, the specter of an armed loner who may harbor extremist views has stoked fear among
seasonal residents and vacation homeowners from Las Vegas.
"This guy is not a folk hero, he's a dangerous criminal," said Jud Hendrickson, whose family getaway property
straddles the area where Knapp is known to roam. "People are going to get hurt before this is over."
Authorities say break-ins mostly occur in winter, when the frigid weather and deep snow drive Knapp indoors in
search of food, equipment and guns.
Those weapons have reappeared in what Iron County, Utah, Detective Sergeant Jody Edwards calls "doomsday
stashes" in camps Knapp erects deep in the woods in mild weather.
Knapp runs trap lines, shoots squirrels and has trekked across hundreds of miles of harsh terrain. He is
uninterested in valuables many thieves would prize, said Michael Wingert, supervisory deputy for the U.S.
Marshals Service in Utah.
"If a cabin owner left a gold brooch on the table, he probably wouldn't touch it," Wingert said. "Outside of reading
about Davy Crockett, I can't tell you the last time I've encountered a case like this."
In Montana, authorities are following up on hundreds of tips on the whereabouts of former militia leader David
Burgert, 48.
Burgert is wanted on attempted murder charges for a shootout with Missoula County deputies in June, when
authorities say he fired a handgun at officers before escaping into the tangled back country of western Montana.
Missoula County Undersheriff Mike Dominick said Burgert, sentenced in 2004 to seven years in federal prison on
weapons charges, is a survivalist able to fend for himself in the wilds.
"He's in desperate circumstances and we believe him to be a particular problem for local law enforcement. His
animosity is directed at us," Dominick said.
OPEN SPACES
The challenge in the wide-open spaces of the western United States is telling the difference between harmless
hermits and recluses - and dangerous sociopaths. While the behavior of eccentrics in the western hinterlands
may be objectionable, it isn't usually criminal, authorities said.
Police in Idaho have grappled with the socially unacceptable behavior of individuals like the "Phantom Pooper,"
who defecated on properties in the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness.
Then there's "Dugout Dick," a squatter on public lands who irrigated his asparagus crop with urine, and rented out
caves he carved into the rocky outcroppings above the Salmon River.
"There are plenty of people with anti-social behavior out there who never really bother anybody," said Tony
Latham, a retired Idaho Fish and Game investigator.
The Southern Poverty Law Center released a report on March 8 showing a sharp rise in anti-government groups
between 2010 and 2011. The report came after an FBI warning in February that extremists opposed to the central
government pose a growing threat to local law enforcement.
Such "sovereign citizens" were mostly known for filing arcane lawsuits against government officials, refusing to
pay taxes and displaying phony license plates before May 2010, when two Arkansas police officers were gunned
down during a traffic stop of a member of the movement.
"That was a wake-up call for everybody," said Don Robinson, FBI supervisory special agent in Idaho.
Police are the preferred targets, said Mark Potok, senior fellow at the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Extremists espouse a patchwork of beliefs where one conspiracy about the government overlaps another, Potok
said, and the worry is knowing when "today's eccentric becomes tomorrow's building bomber."
Militias movements tend to come in waves, like that which spiked in 1995 when Oklahoma City bomber Timothy
McVeigh killed 168 people. A second wave of separatist activism began in early 2009 after the election of an
African-American president with a foreign-sounding name.
The rebirth of fringe movements may also be linked to the economic downturn, fears that Democratic leaders will
impose new restrictions on guns and ultra-right rhetoric in the media, he said.
The FBI's Robinson said what concerns authorities most is the "lone offender," the under-the-radar extremist who
suddenly surfaces in an act of spectacular violence.
Police also worry about what they call the "time bomb," the sometime offender whose potential for violence
escalates over time. That's how Edwards, the Utah detective, views Knapp, who recently pledged to put a
neighboring sheriff "in the ground" in a note left behind at a burgled cabin.
"We have a dangerous situation on our hands," Edwards said.
