Don't know who to vote for.... Help!


Can't vote for the Mormon (Romney)...
Can't vote for the Liberal (Obama) either...


I wish there was a protest vote. Someone like Ross Perot.

This is a pretty cool site that tries to keep up with embellishments, inconsistencies, and lies that are being fed to the American public by politicians... It is not partisan, so you find good and bad in both parties...

You may want to make a study on some of the candidates that didn't make it onto the ballot and write in who you would have liked to see make it to the White house... Even if they aren't going to win, they will learn of how many people vote for them by write in, and it may encourage them not to give up next election year.

I saw this on Michele Malkin's site.

  1. Factcheck.org is funded by the Annenberg Foundation, which also funded the Wm. Ayers/Barack Obama Chicago Annenberg Challenge, and thus cannot be trusted to verify anything ‘Obama’ – including his faux birth cert.

And then went to Factcheck.org to verify. If you go to Factcheck.org website you will see this "About Us".

FactCheck.org is a project of the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania. The APPC was established by publisher and philanthropist Walter Annenberg to create a community of scholars within the University of Pennsylvania that would address public policy issues at the local, state and federal levels.

Our Funding
Prior to fiscal 2010, we were supported entirely by three sources: funds from the APPC’s own resources (specifically an endowment created in 1993 by the Annenberg Foundation at the direction of the late Walter Annenberg, and a 1995 grant by the Annenberg Foundation to fund APPC’s Washington, D.C., base); additional funds from the Annenberg Foundation; and grants from the Flora Family Foundation. We do not seek and have never accepted, directly or indirectly, any funds from corporations, unions, partisan organizations or advocacy groups.

The right should just give up,always in search of the perfect man or woman to vote for and driven by the notion that they have to vote for somebody in order to be upright citizens.....coupled with an almost insane level of obsession with the letter "R" they are doomed to oblivion and failure.The left does what it has to do to move its agenda forward while the right politically can't seem to tie its shoes or feed itself....never has such a politically inept and incompetent political group existed before.

It is our civic duty to vote. We should always.... vote our conscious, not because of any specific party, nor because of how someone walks, talks, and dresses. Many early Christian sermons in the U.S. involved the subject of our duty to vote.

Don't be superstitious in thinking things like, "Well if I mess up and vote for the wrong one, then I'm taking part in his/her falseness and will be punished by God for it."

No, if we vote with righteous intention, and it turns out the one we voted for is a deceiver and persecutor of Christ, then the evil is still upon that deceiver, not us. We may still suffer from the deceiver's actions once in power, but that doesn't mean we are responsible for their evil acts against God's people just because of having voted.

Romney's mormonism is not a problem for me. I am not electing a pastor.

Obama's pro-choice stance is a big problem for me.

You should vote your conscience.

But above all, you need to vote.

If you don't vote then you've pretty much given up your right to be taken seriously when you whine about politics.

I am a registered Libertarian and intend to vote for Gary Johnson for president. Gov. Johnson formerly held the highest elected office in the state of New Mexico. His running mate is Jim Gray a former California judge.

The Libertarian party is the third largest party in the United States and is growing faster than the Democrats and Republicans combined. (47% in the past 6 months)

It's called the party of principle because its focus is on our nation, its people, smaller government and a withdrawal from the massive military spending that's crippled our economy. We affirm constitutional law.

I cannot speak for anyone who reads this post, but as for me I cannot in good conscience vote for any candidate of a party that has openly denied God in its platform. Neither can I affirm by my vote the opposite party, whose candidate has announced his intention to INCREASE military spending at the same time he denies programs of social benefit. Big Bird and Grandma are not important to him. God, the sanctity of unborn life and holy matrimony are not important to the other guy.

Friends and relatives tell me I'm throwing away my vote, but I believe it is better to support the underdog than to give tacit approval to a party and a candidate who I believe will lead American society to destruction in the next four years.

but that's just me, hollering from the choir loft...

I receved this information in an e-mail... it is pretty disturbing...

" Subject: Dhimmitude

Dhimmitude: I didn't know we had a word like that. I should have paid more attention in school.

[background=white]Dhimmitude[/background]

[background=white]The word "Dhimmitude" is found in the new health care bill; so what does it mean?

Thought this was interesting and worth passing on.

Obama used it in the health care bill.
Now isn't this interesting?
It is also included in the health care law.

Dhimmitude -- I had never heard the word until now. Type it into
Google and start reading. Pretty interesting. It's on page 107 of the healthcare bill. I looked this up on Google and yep, it exists.. It is a REAL word.

Dhimmitude is the Muslim system of controlling non-Muslim populations conquered through jihad (Holy War). Specifically, it is the TAXING of non-Muslims in exchange for tolerating their presence AND as a coercive means of converting conquered remnants to Islam.

ObamaCare allows the establishment of Dhimmitude and Sharia Muslim diktat in the United States . Muslims are specifically exempted from the government mandate to purchase insurance, and also from the penalty tax for being uninsured. Islam considers insurance to be "gambling", "risk-taking", and "usury" and is thus banned. Muslims are specifically
granted exemption based on this.


How convenient. So I, as a Christian, will have crippling IRS liens placed against all of my assets, including real estate, cattle, and even accounts receivable, and will face hard prison time because I refuse to buy insurance or pay the penalty tax. Meanwhile, Louis Farrakhan will have no such penalty and will have 100% of his health insurance needs paid for by the de facto government insurance. Non-Muslims will be paying a tax to subsidize Muslims. This is Dhimmitude. "

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Would you really cast your vote for a person wantonly maaking Christians pay for the health care of Muslims?
What other ideas does Obama plan to envoke against Christians if r-elected?

I don't know, Foreigner. I can't imagine voting for either candidate. Isn't that something to whine about? (Somewhat sarcastic, but really.)

Edit-

-Actually, if one of them all of a sudden completely turned against Israel, like completely cutting away our support, I would vote for the other guy, against that poor judgment. I'm for supporting Israel, though not in a blank check sort of way, because they still screw things up all the time. Hopefully we can support them while holding them accountable to their own values as a nation, just like we should be held accountable according to our God-given values.

Foreigner, I wish to assit you in wisdom beyond governments propaganda....

That is no more than hogwash spread by people that vote to edify their position because they vote, but no more than hogwash all the same.
Claiming "i vote and you don't" as validation to win a political argument is like saying... I voted hitler into office and since you did not vote,,, your ideas of Hitler being a bad person are wrong.... lololol That was just one example that utterly proves that claiming yourself capable of arguing politics and a non-voter in-eligible to argue politics false and no more than hog wash. Now this has been revealed to you, never use that argument again. Foreigner break away from the propaganda this country tries to infect others with. You can try to come at me from a different angle but it too will be easily destroyed. My advice is for you to accept this and allow yourself to become stronger that less or no, government propaganda can infect you.

although words from a feind... joeseph stalin made a valid point... the voter is not as important as the one who counts the votes.
In USA one would have to do the imposible... prove the voting system is not rigged.... 70 years ago the electorial system was still in place as it is today. That electorial system is founded on the American people not being smart enough to cast an informed and wise ballot. We have cell phones and computers in our home that these electorial voters 70 years ago coud not turn on.... So that is a lie... a lie by the government of the government and for the government... However that propaganda does in deed serve a purpose... when a bad prsident is elected the government will blame it on the people!!! For one to think this voting system is legit is to believe in pixies and elfin magic... vote counters that bake ballots in a hollow tree.

You do not actually think this government would spread what ever propaganda it wants about any other country or in any other country but exclude insifde its own borders about itself? Can you or do you know of anyone today or yesterday who can prove this person or that person was ever truly voted in by the people? God Bless You.

My brother is a patriot... so he pays close attention to the debates, however when watching the debates his opinion skews the facts constantly as he cannot distinguish truth from a party he don't like and lies from a party he does like. I watched a debate with him the other day and he was so intent in listening he would shush anyone in the room. But he never realized these two debaters were saying nearly the same thing only painting it with different colors.

The projected leaders for the presidency toggles back and forth..neck and neck... like a horse race.... QUIT... THIS HORSE RACE IS NO MORE THAN PROPAGANDA TO MAKE IT A HORSE RACE. it captivates viewers and that is exactly what this diatribe of propaganda is designed to do. This way, when this person or that person is elected.. the american people can sit back and say to themsleves.... our votes counted and since you did not vote... you can'targue politics.

[background=white]Dhimmitude ..... [/background][background=white]Indeed does concern the taxation of non-muslims for their tolerance by muslims.[/background]
[background=white]It WAS on page 107, however research claims the word has been removed. Though Obama allowed the word to be remved,,, why was it there to begin with?[/background]
