Obama the Rookie

I think that all the swooning, chanting and adoration are rapidly going to Obama's head. The rate at which he is going through positions on such dramatic issues as gay marriage, abortion and his Christian values is mind-numbing! Now it would seem that Christ condoned same-sex marriage during the Sermon on the Mount, that abortion is tragic but a child born during a botched abortion is not a human. Words actually escape me on this one - read the account for yourself:

Obama: Sermon on Mount Justifies Same-Sex Unions

Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) told a crowd at Hocking College in Nelsonville, Ohio, Sunday that he believes the Sermon on the Mount justifies his support for legal recognition of same-sex unions. He also told the crowd that his position in favor of legalized abortion does not make him "less Christian."

"I don't think it [a same-sex union] should be called marriage, but I think that it is a legal right that they should have that is recognized by the state," said Obama. "If people find that controversial then I would just refer them to the Sermon on the Mount, which I think is, in my mind, for my faith, more central than an obscure passage in Romans." (See video here) St. Paul's Epistle to the Romans condemns homosexual acts as unnatural and sinful.

Not quite sure America is ready to slide that far left all in one election.
