Whether or not he was actually that bad can be argued but people are excited for something different which Obama put himself out there as, someone different. Plus, he was the first black presidential candidate which automatically caused some buzz. With all this said, I do appreciate the fact that you are willing to support and pray for Obama. Many Christians have been real douchebags since the election and have said harsher things about those who did vote for Obama (i.e. sheep)and that they won't serve under his administration. However, I can't be too harsh because I admit that I didn't pray for Bush as much as I could have or that I would have been as nice if McCain had won (well I don't really care as much about McCain but really Palin, not going there) I also REALLY appreciate how you specifically separated your political views from your religious views. I could not tell you how many times people have treated me poorly or looked down on me because of my political decisions ("you want to kill babies", no I hate abortion but I just don't agree with legislation restriction because people will end up having back alley abortions, "you want to destroy the sanctity of marriage" no I don't agree that one group of sinners should be denied more rights than any other sinner, etc) But anyways, we as Christians have to be careful now more than ever not because of who is in office but the enemy is planting seeds of division and dissent among our people. "Pssh hey only idiots vote (fill in the blank). The other side does not care about your feelings. They don't believe you are a REAL Christian."

With all this said, I do appreciate the fact that you are willing to support and pray for Obama. Many Christians have been real douchebags since the election and have said harsher things about those who did vote for Obama (i.e. sheep)and that they won’t serve under his administration.

However, I can’t be too harsh because I admit that I didn’t pray for Bush as much as I could have or that I would have been as nice if McCain had won (well I don’t really care as much about McCain but really Palin, not going there)

I could not tell you how many times people have treated me poorly or looked down on me because of my political decisions (“you want to kill babies”, no I hate abortion but I just don’t agree with legislation restriction because people will end up having back alley abortions, “you want to destroy the sanctity of marriage” no I don’t agree that one group of sinners should be denied more rights than any other sinner, etc)
