Black is in....

From the UK Telegraph, via Drudge

CNN's orange-haired septuagenarian chatterbox Larry King has been bowled over by the new Age of Obama, enthusing that his youngest offspring (from his seventh marriage) wants to be black. I guess it's a case of black being, er, the new black.

Interviewing a visibly uncomfortable Bob Woodward on his eponymous CNN show last night, Larry, 75, gushed: "My younger son Cannon, he is eight. And he now says that he would like to be black. I'm not kidding. He said there's a lot of advantages. Black is in. Is this a turning of the tide?"


Ok, that is strange, whatever trips your trigger I guess. But wait there's more,

My wife said, "Have you checked the e-mail?"

Me. "No."

She. "Check out the offer for the new credit card!"





And here it is,





and now the fine print,

Annual Fee $495



The question?

How many who want to be "black" will pay $495 per year for the privilege?

A New President

We now have a new President.


The Dow Jones and NASDQA are both down. The world is at peace, war has forever ended, abortion is now morally acceptable, sodomy is now normal human behavior, and everything you own is the property of the government.

Hope and change. Hope and change.

For those of you who did not punish yourself by watching the tragedy/usurpation unfold, a brief reminder of the most important point.


Today Barak Hussein Obama stood on the podium in front of not only the nation but the world, and said the following,

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

That is the oath of office in it's entirety. Nothing about government bailouts, nothing about expanding the Right to Kill, nothing about negotiating peace in Israel, nothing about expanding education. Just one simple task.

Seems to me that the oath of office suggests that the overarching/mandatory requirement for the President of the United States is very simple. Follow the Constitution as it is written.

Adam and Eve were given one simple command in the Garden of Eden.

Genesis 2:

16And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat:

17But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

One simple command, just one, and they failed.

As BHO takes office, he has one simple task. To follow the Constitution of the United States of America. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less. BHO has just made a vow, while placing his hand on the very Word of God, that he would follow and protect the Constitution.

What about you? Do you follow the Constitution as written, according to the original meaning when written by the founders, or do you accept as normal and legitimate "laws" which directly violate the Constitution. Do you or did you vote for politicians who ignore the Constitution?

I am suggesting that those who claim to Love God, followers of Jesus Christ, should treat the Constitution in a manner similar to how we treat the written Law of God. ( I'm not saying they are the same, rather, the Law of God should be our guide for faith and practice, and in the secular realm, the Constitution should be our standard for how we relate to our government.)

What is the test we will use to determine whether BHO and any other President have been good Presidents?

Did he do the following?

"I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."
