NEW YORK: Former President Obama campaign’s finance director and political fundraiser Vera Baker is back in the news. Thanks to a report in National Enquirer today, Vera Baker is said to be in the middle of an Obama cheating scandal.
Published reports are citing sources close to both Vera Baker and President Barack Obama as saying they have “indisputable evidence” into
(On a side note: I just think it is interesting that this is in an overseas newspaper, and that thus far our major news media, here in the states, have been quiet thus far on this story… that their media star should be in a sex scandal?)
What about this story? Is there any truth to it?
I don’t know, but I think it certainly bears watching.
Could this also be the reason why possibly there may be a spiritual change in direction forthcoming for Obama? We can only hope and pray it be so.
I’m not saying one way or another, I don’t even know if the story is true; but I’m just thinking out loud here. I do think that certainly we need to pay attention and follow this story, to see if it has legs.
This story was also reported in the Globe and also in the National Inquirer. There have also been several other publicized reports, regarding Obama in the past, in the Enquirer. Now if you are like most people, myself included, the National Enquirer would not be anything I would buy, or look to for any kind of story; but based on some information I have just read, I think we might want to rethink that opinion.The National Enquires’ reputation apparently has been changing lately; and I understand that they have even been considered for a Pulitzer Prize; and as an example, here are 7 times in the past when they got their story right, and were very accurate in their investigative reporting.
7 Stories The National Enquirer Actually Got Right
by Ethan TrexSome in the media have argued that The National Enquirer deserves Pulitzer Prize consideration for its investigative work into politician John Edwards’ affair with Rielle Hunter. Although it’s easy to dismiss The Enquirer as a tabloid collection of fabricated stories that offer little more than a distraction in the grocery store line, the weekly rag has actually broken some pretty big stories. Sure, headlines like “Stars with Cellulite!” and “Kirstie Alley: Only 4 Years to Live!” might not make anyone forget Woodward and Bernstein, but take a look at these Enquirer scoops:
1. Finding Ennis Cosby’s Killer
When Bill Cosby’s son Ennis was senselessly murdered on the shoulder of a Los Angeles freeway in 1997, The Enquirer took an odd step to help solve the case: it offered a $100,000 reward for information that led to the arrest and conviction of Cosby’s killer. Papers usually just announce rewards that other groups are offering, and to some this bounty seemed a lot like The Enquirer’s practice of paying its sources—a major taboo in mainstream journalism.
The reward worked, though. Witness Chris So learned of the huge reward and led police to the revolver used in the slaying by killer Mikhail Markhasev. The Enquirer also obtained copies of jailhouse letters that pointed to Markhasev’s guilt. Thanks in part to this evidence, Markhasev received a sentence of life without parole, plus 10 years.
2. Walking in O.J. Simpson’s Shoes
If you remember the O.J. Simpson murder trial, you surely can recall the infamous bloody footprint that was found at the crime scene. The print came from a Bruno Magli shoe, and the football star adamantly denied owning such a pair of kicks.
The Enquirer did some digging, though, and unearthed a photo of the Juice walking on the field at a 1993 Buffalo Bills game wearing a pair of Bruno Maglis. The paper then turned up a second photo of O.J. wearing the shoes. By the time his civil trial rolled around in 1996, Simpson was forced to admit, “I know I’ve had similar shoes.”
3. Jesse Jackson’s Family Tree Grows
In 2001, The Enquirer broke a story about Jesse Jackson fathering an illegitimate daughter with staffer Karin Stanford in 1999. Once The Enquirer scheduled its story on Jackson’s dalliances, mainstream media outlets around the country started picking up on the paper’s scoop. By the time The Enquirer’s issue made it onto newsstands, Jackson had already issued a statement confirming the facts of the story.
4. Bob Dole Was Once Frisky
This story never really got any traction, but during the 1996 presidential campaign, The Enquirer unearthed a scoop about Republican candidate, illeist, and future Viagra spokesman Bob Dole having once had a mistress. According to Meredith Roberts, a Washington trade publication editor, she had been Dole’s mistress from 1968 to 1970 during the candidate’s first marriage.
Even though Dole was using a family values platform to oppose Bill Clinton, most papers chose not to run with this story. (There were allegations that Elizabeth Dole personally called the Washington Post and begged for the paper to kill the story.) The Enquirer, however, interviewed Roberts and eventually published the story. In those pre-Lewinsky days, though, most editors seemed to think a 30-year-old affair wasn’t all that relevant, and the story never took off.
5. Gary Hart’s Political Ship Sails
“Follow me around. I don’t care. I’m serious. If anybody wants to put a tail on me, go ahead. They’d be very bored.” Colorado senator and presidential hopeful Gary Hart issued this bizarre challenge to the media in a 1987 New York Times Magazine profile, just before his career spectacularly imploded.
Murmurs of Hart having an affair had been circulating around Washington, and the Miami Herald ran a story linking the senator to a Miami woman. Nothing concrete emerged until The Enquirer published a photo of 29-year-old model Donna Rice sitting in Hart’s lap during a jaunt on Hart’s yacht, Monkey Business. (Look closely and you’ll see “Monkey Business Crew” written on Hart’s shirt.) A week after The Enquirer published the picture of Hart and Rice, Hart dropped out of the 1988 presidential race.
6. The Enquirer Catches O.J. Again
You probably remember the firestorm of controversy that surrounded O.J. Simpson’s “hypothetical confession” book If I Did It in 2007. The Enquirer actually broke the story of the book’s existence in October 2006, complete with the correct title. Simpson’s lawyers immediately denied that any such book project existed. Less than a year later, If I Did It hit bookstore shelves.
7. Rush Limbaugh Comes Clean
In 2003, The Enquirer ran a story in which conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh’s housekeeper provided Limbaugh with a steady stream of OxyContin to feed his painkiller addiction. Although some media outlets turned up their noses at the Enquirer’s scoop because the paper had paid housekeeper Wilma Cline for her story, law enforcement quickly confirmed that Limbaugh had purchased some 30,000 pills from Cline. Limbaugh then admitted on his show that he had a painkiller addiction and pledged to enter rehab.
They haven’t all been winners, though. Here are some stories The Enquirer got wrong:
• Carol Burnett was not drunk in public with Henry Kissinger in 1976, and she won a $1.6 million judgment against the paper.
• The male family members of kidnapping victim Elizabeth Smart were in fact not part of a gay sex ring.
• Cameron Diaz was not caught cheating on Justin Timberlake in 2005.
• Representative Gary Condit’s wife did not attack missing intern Chandra Levy before Levy’s 2001 disappearance.
• Similarly, in 2004, Condit himself settled a $209 million libel suit against American Media, The Enquirer’s publisher, for an undisclosed amount.
• Clint Eastwood won $150,000 from The Enquirer in 1997 when the paper referred to a syndicated interview with the actor as “an exclusive.”
• Last June, actress Brooke Shields reached a settlement with The Enquirer after a reporter and a photographer from the paper checked her mother, who suffers from dementia, out of a New Jersey nursing home to gather information for a story.
So I wouldn’t out of hand just dismiss this story, based on the Enquirer’s past reputation; but let’s just wait and see what happens.
As Christians, we all know that the Bible says that we all will one day have to stand before the Judgment seat of Christ; and for everyone else, it will be the White Throne Judgment!
In the Bible, it also says that it is Only Christians who are justified by Faith, by the Faith of Abraham (see Galatians. 3:6-9); and the point is made that we, as Christians, are justified by faith in Christ, and not by works!
Paul over and over again tells us in Galatians that it is by faith, and that it is not of anything we do; that we are definitely NOT saved by works, or by any works of righteousness, that we do.
No, the Bible is very clear on this, that we ALL are saved, justified, reconciled and redeemed by faith in Jesus Christ alone, because of His shed Blood on Calvary’s cross; and there can be no religious works, good deeds, or any human effort that can compete with what He, Jesus, has already done, for us; which must be received by faith.
Now with that said and understood, how ridiculous is it for any Christian, or anyone calling himself a Christian, to even imply that all roads will lead to heaven, whether through Christ, or through any other religion, even among atheists; just as long as they were good and moral people. Now if you will recall, both Barak Obama and former President George W. Bush have both said that this is what they believe to be true about the Bible, according to their faith, and what they believe about their faith.
Well, the problem is, it contradicts what the Bible says, and more specifically it contradicts what Jesus, Himself, said, when He said “I am the way, the truth, and the life, and no one may come unto the Father except through me.” (John 14:6)
As Christians I think we all pretty much know this; but my point for bringing this up here, has to do with the warning Jesus gave, that in the last days there would be many people who would use His name, and claim to be Christians, who are no more than wolves in sheep’s clothing, and we need to be weary and not accept every spirit as though they are from God.
We can know them, the Bible says, by their fruit; and I believe also we can know them by what we hear them say.
On that note, whatever Obama and Bush believes to be true, any Christian knows that the very basis of the Christian faith begins with faith in Jesus Christ, and in the Blood of Christ, being the ONLY way anyone qualifies for entrance into heaven!
The Bible also warns us in Galatians 6:7, “For us not to be deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he also reap;” and also we are warned in Luke 12:2-3, by our Lord Himself that, “There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known. What you have said in the dark will be heard in the daylight, and what you have whispered in the ear in the inner rooms will be proclaimed from the roofs.”
So God here is plainly saying that we won’t get away with our secret agendas for long; and that there is coming a day of reckoning, and for some it will happen sooner than others; and there is also come an ultimate reckoning as well, as I just discribed; and which one we each will appear before will depend on whether we knew Jesus as our personal Saviour and Lord.
So much for that, but my point is, even though we don’t know yet whether this story about Obama is accurate, not yet anyway; but on the chance that it is accurate, and that it did happen, perhaps, I think it would be in order that we, as Christians, instead of aligning with the world and condemning him, I think it would be more appropriate if we instead prayed that God would use this, to bring him to salvation; and I’d also like to see the same thing happen with Tiger Woods as well, with regard to his recent scandal, and that God would use these scandals to bring these men, including Barak Obama, into a saving relationship with Jesus Christ and that they would be born-again.
The Bible talks about how judgment starts in the household of God (1 Peter 4:17); and I believe that one way God may bring revival to our land is to reveal the corrupt and evil practices that are going on, and expose it to the light of day, and along with that I believe will come the opportunity for repentance and turning to God; but I also want to point out that the Bible makes it very clear that this process, this judgment of God, begins in the household of God.
This is just something more, I think, for all of us to think about and to be praying about… and I pray that in the end, God’s will is done, and that He is glorified.
I’ll just leave it at that, and as the man said: “We report, and you decide!”
Shalom,

Subject: OBAMA CHEATING SCANDAL: SHOCKING NEW REPORT
OBAMA CHEATING SCANDAL: SHOCKING NEW REPORTSPhoto by: splash news online
UPDATED: Reports out of Washington, DC: PRESIDENT OBAMA in a shocking cheating scandal after being caught in a Washington, D.C. Hotel with a former campaign aide.
A confidential investigation has learned that Obama first became close to gorgeous 35 year-old VERA BAKER in 2004 when she worked tirelessly to get him elected to the US Senate, raising millions in campaign contributions.
Now, the investigators are searching for a hotel surveillance videotape.
While Baker has insisted in the past that “nothing happened” between them, reports reveal that top anti-Obama operatives are offering more than $1 million to witnesses to reveal what they know about the alleged hush-hush affair.
Among those being offered money is a limo driver who says in 2004 that he took Vera to a secret hotel rendezvous in a Washington hotel where Obama was staying.
An ENQUIRER reporter has confirmed the limo driver’s account of the secret 2004 rendezvous and has also learned that on-site hotel surveillance video camera footage could provide indisputable evidence to the investigation.
DEVELOPING STORY
Here is another example of a miscarriage of justice on the part of our government, in order to promote another “politically incorrect” and very unfair politicized agenda; with the result being that another one of our military people is being offered up as a sacrificial lamb to this very unfair and politically motivated cause, which by the way only serves to undermine the morale of our fighting troops, at a time when our nation is at war.
As you listen and read about this case, you’ll learn that after the government prosecutor found out that his own expert witness agreed with Michael’s testimony, that the Iraqi, who was a known Alcida cell member, was in fact reaching for Michael’s gun at the time he was shot, he kept this evidence hidden, and did not reveal it.
This information was held back from Michael’s defense attorney, during the trial, and was only learned about afterwards, after an email to this effect was discovered after the trial had concluded.
The parents said in the interview that all Michael is asking for is a fair trial.
This reminds me of the two Border Patrol officers who were likewise also unjustly thrown into prison, under the Bush Administration, for similar reasons, in order to support an unjust and unfair politicized agenda
Not to mention all the other cases of late, that we have all heard about, where our government has prosecuted others of our military personal, on major felony charges, for what amounted to college style hazing pranks, among enemy prisoners. This may have called for disciplinary actions being taken, but certainly not major felony charges.
This is especially true in light of the fact that these same Islamic Terrorists are in fact beheading our people, and desecrating their dead bodies in public afterwards… and yet these clowns who are currently running our government, under this administration, are wanting to give these evil people our constitutional rights, as war combatants mind you (which goes against all the rules of war), and at the same time prosecute them under our civil law, in a civilian court no less; were if convicted they would be put into Federal Prison, where they would be in a position to freely recruit more people to their cause.
May God help us and deliver us from this sort of idiocy within our government today, regarding this crazy and unjust political agenda, as we continually are shooting ourselves in the foot; and let us also recognize who the real enemy is here, in this war we are fighting… which definitely are not our own brave men and women who are fighting for our freedom!
May God also deliver us from people like this, within our own government, and also in the media, who apparently from all available evidence of late, and judging from all that we can see happening today within our government, it would certainly appear that these people are presently permeating both our government and our media!
Let us all continue to watch and pray for our country, and for a miracle within our country; and let us also pray for that revival that we so desperately need; and that our Constitutional Republic is restored, and our liberties and freedoms, as American citizens, are preserved! Selah
MILITARY PROSECUTORS WITHHOLD EVIDENCE; ARMY RANGER GOES TO PRISON FOR 25 YEARS (recently reduced to 15 years) FOR SHOOTING AL QAEDA OPERATIVE
The Story
On March 20th, 2009, Army Ranger 1st Lieutenant Michael Behenna was sentenced to 25 years in prison for killing Ali Mansur, a known Al Qaeda operative while serving in Iraq. Mansur was known to be a member of an Al Qaeda cell operating in the lieutenant’s area of operation and was suspected to have organized an attack on Lt. Behenna’s platoon in April 2008 which killed two U.S. soldiers and injured two more. Army intelligence ordered the release of Mansur and Lt. Behenna was ordered to return the terrorist to his home.
During the return of Mansur, Lt. Behenna again questioned the Al Qaeda member for information about other members of the terrorist cell, and financial supporters. During this interrogation, Mansur attacked Lt. Behenna, who killed the terrorist in self-defense. The government subsequently prosecuted Lt. Behenna for premeditated murder.
Not only is this a miscarriage of justice on the behalf of Lt. Behenna, who was acting to prevent further loss of life in his platoon, it is demoralizing to the U.S. troops who continue to fight on behalf of the freedom and security of our nation. Whether it is U.S. border patrol agents, members of the armed forces, or FBI agents, no individual who is serving on the frontlines in the War on Terror should be so blatantly mistreated.
We urgently need your help to correct this terrible wrong against a loyal and faithful soldier. Please contact your congressman and ask them to intervene on behalf of 1LT Behenna. Below is a brief recap of the relevant aspects of Lt. Behenna’s case.
September 2007: 1st Lieutenant Michael Behenna deployed to Iraq for his first combat experience
April 21, 2008: Lt. Behenna’s platoon was attacked by Al Qaeda operatives. The attack resulted in death of two of Lt. Behenna’s platoon members, two Iraqi citizens, and wounded two additional soldiers under Lt. Behenna’s command.
May 5, 2008: Known terrorist Ali Mansur was detained at his home for suspected involvement in the attack on Lt. Behenna’s platoon
May 16, 2008: Army Intelligence orders the release of Mansur
Lt. Behenna, who lost two members of his platoon just weeks earlier, was ordered to transport Mansur back to his home
Lt. Behenna attempts a final interrogation of Mansur prior to his release
During the interrogation, Behenna is attacked by Mansur and is forced to defend himself. During the altercation, the terrorist is killed.
Lt. Behenna failed to properly report the incident
July 2008: The U.S. Army charges Lt. Behenna with premeditated murder for the death of Al Qaeda operative and terrorist Ali Mansur.
February 23, 2009: Lt. Behenna’s trial begins
Government and defense experts agree on the trajectory of the bullets killing Mansur
Prosecution expert Dr. Herbert MacDonnell initiated contact with defense attorneys explaining his agreement with the testimony of Lt. Behenna and his presentation to prosecutors supporting Lt. Behenna’s version of events.
Dr. MacDonnell is not called to testify in the case and instead is sent home. Just before leaving the courthouse he picks up his coat from the prosecution room and says to the three prosecutors (Megan Poirier, Jason Elbert, and Erwin Roberts), ‘The explanation that Lt Behenna just testified to was the exact same scenario I told you yesterday. Lt Behenna is telling the truth.’
Jack Zimmermann, defense counsel, asks prosecutors if they have any exculpatory evidence that should be provided to the defense (referring to Dr. MacDonnell’s demonstration). Prosecutors deny having any such evidence despite having been told by their own expert witness that Lt Behenna’s explanation was the only logical explanation.
Prosecutors withholding of this evidence allowed them to argue that Lt. Behenna executed Ali Mansur while seated when the forensic experts, including Dr. MacDonnell, agree that Ali was standing with his arms outstretched when shot
Lt. Behenna is convicted of unpremeditated murder and assault by a military panel of seven officers, none of whom had combat experience.
Dr. MacDonnell contacts prosecution requesting that the information provided in his demonstration be given to the defense.
Prosecutors provide such information after a verdict was rendered, but prior to sentencing.
At the request of the presiding judge, Dr. MacDonnell provides his information to the court via telephone
The judge orders both sides in the case to file briefs relating to a possible mistrial
After reading the briefs the judge set an additional hearing and ordered additional briefs, including one from the defense requesting a new trial.
On March 20, the judge denied defense motions to declare a mistrial and to order a new trial
Lt. Behenna was paraded in handcuffs through the Nashville airport, the Milwaukee airport, and the Kansas City airport enroute to Fort Leavenworth Prison
Lt. Behenna’s attorneys are appealing the verdict
Lt. Behenna is currently serving a 15-year sentence (the 25 year sentence was reduced five years by the commanding general of 101st Airborne and reduced another five years by the Army Clemency Board. The earliest he would be eligible for parole is after serving a third of his sentence. Without parole or a new trial Lt. Behenna will get out of prison for the shooting an Al Qaeda terrorist in self defense when he is 40 years old.
1st Lieutenant Michael Behenna was an excellent officer. He received his call to serve his country while attending the University of Central Oklahoma. He is from a family of public servants, his mother being an Assistant United States Attorney and his father a retired Special Agent with the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation. He has served the Army and the United States with honor and dignity. To sacrifice the life of this Oklahoma soldier over the death of a known terrorist, is a breech of faith with all who are serving our country.
We need your support now more than ever. The government has unlimited resources and has spent accordingly. 1LT Behenna and his family hired civilian counsel, Houston lawyers Jack B. Zimmermann and Kyle R. Sampson, at their own expense. This Legal Defense Fund has been established for the sole purpose of helping ensure that 1LT Behenna has meaningful access to experienced legal defense counsel in the military prosecution. The value of having experience in a case like this became very obvious when the issue of evidence withheld by the prosecution was discovered. All donations to this Fund will be used exclusively for attorney fees and expenses associated with this legal defense and will be maintained in an independently administered trust account. Funds will not be distributed directly to 1LT Behenna.

I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
1 Timothy 2:1-4 KJV
After all, as Christians, we do believe in miracles, and that our God is the God of the impossible, do we not? And as the Bible says: “All things are possible, if only we can believe.” (Mark 9:23)
I’ve been listening to the prophecies of Kim Clement, regarding this Obama administration; and whereas I must admit, I did not bear witness with some of the things that I was hearing, at the same time I know in my heart that certainly it is God’s will for there to be repentance and a turning back to God in the White House!
Certainly, if God could spare the nation of Nineveh, and cause not only the king, but the entire nation to turn back to God, in repentance; and if God could turn King Nebuchadnezzar’s heart, then certainly it is not beyond the realm of possibly that the same thing could also happen within this present Administration.
It is my prayer that these things be so, and that there will be a change of heart, not only in Barak Obama, but also for his entire administration and staff.
Lord, if there is betrayal in the White House, then my prayer is let it be exposed and found out; let the blinders be taken off, and the enemy’s plans exposed in the light of day.
Also, it is my prayer that our nation will take a new path, that there would be a grassroots movement back towards faith in God, from the bottom up; let us, as a people, move forward with the rebuilding of our nation, once again as One Nation Under God; and let it happen through prayer, repentance, and in sack cloth and ashes.
God may each of us turn back to you; may we each turn from our wicked ways; that we may seek your face, and be forgiven of our trespasses and sins… Lord God, have mercy upon us! In Jesus name we pray… Amen.
Won’t you join me in this prayer?
Shalom and love,

Kim Clement:
A Knee will Bow “in the House Called WHITE”
Prophesied on April 16, 2010 in Nashville, Tennessee:
America, I Am Not Going to Judge You—I Am Going to Chastise.
Listen to the word of the Lord tonight. “There is great darkness that is emerging from the top office in the land. There is darkness that is emerging from a place that they call White, but did I not promise you, great light would come from darkness? Did I not promise you that even in the midst of darkness great light shall shine on this nation and the nations of the earth? Your enemy shall melt as wax before the fire.”
The Spirit of God says, “Do not forget the promises that I have made throughout the earth; do not forget the promises that I made to your children. Do not forget that I said I would send signs—the earth is shaken all around you. It has shaken in nations around you. And they have prayed for America to be shaken in the earth and that judgment may be their answer. But,” God says, “America, I am not going to judge you. I am going to chastise. Do not despise chastisement of the Lord. For the earthquake that has come shall release energy from a place that has been held deep in the earth.”
“Why do you think that there are now eruptions? And from space they are coming to slam into the earth, and none of My people shall be harmed,” says the Lord. “This shall be known as a miracle. This shall be known as a sign and a wonder. What shall happen is that the energy source that has been held deep within the earth for millions and millions of years, was being held for such a time as this. Do you realize,” says the Lord, “That you are living in a time that was spoken of by the generals of yesterday?”
God says, “You have come to a place where I will unlock a key, where you will be free from your debt to the Middle East, you’ll be free from your debt to China. You will be free from your debt,” says the Lord. “And let them laugh and say this will never happen—just watch Me now. As I take that thing, that which has been for harm, shall be for your good,” says the Lord.
“In the Summer Months You Will Look and Say, ‘It is Rebounding! Things are Coming Back!”
The Spirit of the Lord says, “Hear the Prophet tonight as he prophesies what I tell you. Many desire to humiliate you, in front of nations that endeavor to humiliate you, and bring you to nothing. Watch how I deal with the crime. Watch how I deal with what has been taken and presented to Me on a silver platter. What am I looking at? What is on this plate that you bring to Me? False images? What is on this religious plate, that you bring to Me?” says the Lord. “There is nothing but false incense. Yet there is an aroma coming from children. There is a fragrance of praise that is coming from the teenagers.
“There is a fragrance of praise that is coming from the hearts of the children.” And God says, “I have thrown a mantle upon them and I have given to them a double portion, and America, your best day is upon you. I will bring the betrayal out. And in the summer months you will look and say, ‘It is rebounding, it is rebounding! Things are coming back, things are coming back.'” For God says, “I am taking you out of a dark place and shedding My light,” says the Lord.
“There is no fear in the perfect love of God. Look as I point to the fire. And they will say the fire has been pointed to. And I will take men who have been astute and prudent in their dealings with finances. And I will make them billionaires, millionaires and extremely influential and wealthy—and DO NOT say that it is not the desire of the Lord. I called Abraham out of the Ur of Chaldees, and his obedience made him the most influential and powerful and wealthy man on the face of the earth, proving to mankind that God is not restricted by a man’s age. And there shall be an extension of age as Alzheimer’s comes to an end in this decade,” says the Lord.
“There will be an extension of age as Alzheimer’s comes to an end in this decade, and there will be an end to the humiliation of children, as I bring Autism to an end in this decade,” says the Lord. “Look to the fire point, it is pointing to the fire. It shall be an investment that you shall capture and make the money to make you debt free,” says the Lord of Hosts tonight.
This Nation Will Once Again Shine
Through the Nations of the Earth
“There has been a visitation to this nation and to the nations that have stood together. The betrayal will only bring out the will of God. Russia shall freeze in her steps as she attempts to come and lure and seduce the President and the Vice President. Israel shall no longer be spurned. I will not allow it. I am about to cause a knee to bow in the house they call White, and surely this shall happen, for great pressure shall come as suddenly there are wars that begin to emerge. ‘Give us Israel, give us that piece of land! America, you are in our way. You’re in our way.'”
For God says, “Shall I wrap them around My finger and make an open show of them? America, you will dispossess again enemies. But first we will deal with the hand that is on the table. Attempting something that America has never attempted before. The temptation is so great, but yet, “God says, “a new party shall emerge in this angry, wrath-infested political climate. A new party shall emerge and they shall say, ‘Is it as a result of tea?’ And yes, it is!” For the Spirit of God says, “Enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough, enough is enough!
“This nation, that has literally brought bread to the nations of the earth… This nation, that has sent My Word to the most remote parts of the world and lost their lives because of it… I will not forget,” says the Spirit of the Lord. “I will not forget.” The Lord says, “Do not say to Me that ‘We cannot associate the past. It must be disfigured and disconnected.’ You cannot dispose of the past, for it is connected to your destiny. A nation shall look in horror and say, ‘Was it possible that because of a few tea parties, that something as powerful as this will emerge?'”
“And when I say ‘with horror,’ they will say, ‘Is it possible for something like this to happen so quickly?'” God said, “This tea party that shall arise shall have the words of My commandments and shall have the truths that were given to your forefathers, and they shall bring it and say, ‘This shall never be lost.'” And God says, “Even your supreme court shall be shaken. Five years from now, one death, another death, and there shall be fear that shall grip the nation. I will save you from the despair of assassination. I will give to you the honor of seeing how a man can humble himself. ‘A man of an African nation,’ they shall say, ‘this is confusing us.’
“Democrats shall shake their heads, scratch their heads, and Republicans alike. They shall say, ‘This is ridiculous, where are we?’ Out of this shall emerge a party, and truly,” the Lord says, “I will breathe upon it! And I will bring forth a President that shall stand with righteousness and speak into the schools and visit the Universities.” And the Lord says, “This nation will once again shine through the nations of the earth.” And God said, “Though you be despised, and though they bring wars against you, you will never be defeated again!”

Below is my response to a forwarded message that I received today, from a friend and sister in the Lord, along with some very nice pictures of Barack Obama’s children.
I maintained that the reason why Bill Clinton was so dangerous, was because in the eyes of many Americans, they were so enthralled with his looks and his obvious charisma and charm, that they failed to note, or think important, the many flaws that are in his character; with the result that he was caught lying on national TV, under oath no less, and the American people still gave him a pass, for having sex with a White House intern, inside the Oval Office; and when he was caught in his lie, the comment was made by many Americans that “Character was not important.”
I have always said that it is pure insanity and very ignorant for anyone to judge another person over something as unimportant and inconsequential, which they have no control over, such as to the amount of pigmentation in a person’s skin; but certainly as Christians we are always to judge people by the color of their character… are we not? That’s why my Bible says… and also by their fruit!
It is very disturbing, to me, that so many in our country are saying otherwise; and to me, it is really a sad commentary on where the minds of so many Americans are today.
Well the same kind of thing that was going on with former President Bill Clinton is also going on today with Barack Obama, in my opinion, because as happened with Bill Clinton, people are so caught up with his looks, his personality, and his charisma, that they are forgetting his character, and the really dishonest and dangerous changes he is making to our country, and how he is unraveling and undermining our U.S. Constitution in the process.
Barack Obama, in my opinion, is very dangerous, and he is every bit as effective at lying as was Bill Clinton; with the added feature of having the additional pigmentation in his skin; though his bloodline and ethnicity have been proven not to be NOT Black at all, but he is of Arabic descent; as that was his father’s bloodline and nationality.
A white person, I don’t think, would ever get away with half the things this man is doing, and saying; but in the interest of not appearing as racists, and also wanting to celebrate the fact that he is the first so called “Black” President, but as I pointed out before that too is another lie, there are so many people who are reluctant to say anything negative about the man.
With all of that said, nevertheless, I am quite sure that he is doing an excellent job, at least in the minds of his handlers, who I maintain are the Globalist International Bankers.
I also maintain that all of these aforementioned qualities, his personality, his charisma, and his supposed ethnicity, even though it is a lie, nevertheless, these are the very reasons why he was chosen for this position… and he is very dangerous, because again in my opinion, Barack Obama is every bit a Trojan Horse, to our nation! And he is doing his job very well!
It seems to me that the Bible says that the Antichrist will also be charismatic, and well liked, and that will be his power to fool so many people!
All I can say is, Christians… do not be fooled!!!
Anyway, this is my soapbox and opinion for today; why don’t you read on and let me know what your views are?
Shalom,

Hi Ruth, Thank you for sharing these pictures with me. It is an important reminder, I think, for us to pray for the man; but also, I think it is also important that we shouldn’t be fooled by appearances. I do realize that Obama has a beautiful family, and I too pray for his children; as I pray also for all our children.
I know you are originally from another country, and were not originally born and raised here in the states, and whereas I’m not sure how long you have lived here in American; I have to say this, that what this man is doing to this country is very harmful; in that he is undoing everything we fought two world worlds, and a cold war, with the former Soviet Union, to preserve, and that is our individual liberty and our freedom.
Socialism, or Communism (by whatever name you call it) is demonic, and the reason it is demonic is because it denies the individual his or her basic freedoms, among which is the freedom to worship God, as we choose; and instead it puts the state in the position of being all knowing, and omnipotent… and how dumb is that?
Have you ever read our U.S. Constitution? It is the highest law of our land, and the problem I have with this man, as I am having with most of our politicians today, is that they are no longer abiding by what it says.
That alone, according to our Constitution, disqualifies them from holding public office… as they swore they would uphold and defend our Constitution.
I pray for Obama, and I truly hope, for his children’s, and really for all of our children’s sake, that he gets saved; but I cannot ever support his policies, and nor do I agree with what he is doing to our country.
In fact, I’ll be honest with you, until he proves differently, and is willing to publishes his long form birth certificate, which has the name of the hospital he was born in, the doctor who delivered him, and the names of witnesses who were present at his birth… as I might add, I and every other citizen have had to show, on any number of occasion, then as far a I’m concerned, the man isn’t even a citizen, let along be natural born; and he is therefore not even qualified to be president.
Now I ask you, if this weren’t true, and if he were born here, why would he not want to show it? Why all the stonewalling and why all the legal battles? The answer to me is obvious… it’s because he doesn’t have a real birth certificate.
You can believe what you want, Ruth, and I respect your right to do so; but I would not be fooled by anything this man says. His whole political career has been one lie after another. Also, based on his words and actions (which I have sent you before) I don’t for a moment believe that he is a Christian, as he claims to be; but rather I believe he is Islamic, and is posing as a Christian, for obvious reasons.
Check these sites out, and you decide… are these the words of someone who is serving Jesus Christ?
Listen to Obama as he mocks the Bible – clearly, from what he is saying in this video, he does not know the God of the Bible, and nor does he know or understand what the Bible truly teaches, on the subjects he is speaking about.
Obama also says we are no longer a Christian nation, and though I’d hate to agree with him; but I’d have to say certainly a nation that has authorized the extermination of over 50 million unborn babies cannot be a Christian nation; but certainly that is both our heritage and our history, and it is my prayer that we can be a Christian nation again; but for that to happen we are going to have to see some radical changes in our country; changes that I don’t believe will happen without God’s intervention, and our having a Spiritual Awakening.
I’d also have to say that to the extent Christians have abdicated their responsibility, and have allowed this secular humanistic mindset, as expressed through this man, and those like him, to take over the reins of power in our country, that truly Obama is a reflection of the mindset of the people who elected him to office; and this is a very serious and poor commentary on the a good many of our citizens, that they could not see through this man, and all of his lies.
I would add also, as the Bible said would happen in the last days, that people would be very religious, but that they would show by their actions and their fruit, that their hearts are far from God, and that also they would deny the Power… in other words, having not established a relationship with God, for them, Obama says is the case, all roads lead to heaven, with or without Christ! I maintain you cannot be a Christian and believe, nor say these things!
Listen to Obama as he admits his Muslim heritage and faith – remember how he refused to celebrate our National Day of Prayer, last year, because he said he didn’t want to offend the Muslim community; and then later in the year he participates in the Muslim day of prayer, without hesitation… not concerned at all, I guess, that he in doing so is offending the Christian community.
Jesus said clearly that we have to be very wise and discerning in the last days, as he said there would be many people who would come in His name, who would represent themselves as Christians, but are not; but rather they are wolves in sheep’s clothing. We have a lot of people, I think, who meet this description in politics, as well as in the church… and I maintain that Obama is one of them.
Stalin and Hitler did these same things, in their efforts to win the minds of the youth, in their time; and clearly Obama is today doing the same.
What Obama doesn’t know about Christianity is extraordinary, and when he says things like Jesus is not the only way; and that atheists and even Muslims, as long as they are good people, can get into heaven, there is just no way that a Christians would ever say these things!
I have to say also, that I was also fooled by former President Bush too, as I voted for him both times he ran for office.
All I can say is, may God help us, in this country, to wake up? I don’t know exactly where you are with this man, but I would urge caution. I have to say for my part, and respectfully so, as I don’t want to offend you, or anybody else, at least on this one point, I think we both are in agreement, that we both want to see the man saved; but beyond that, I also have to say, I want him out of the White House!
Bless you,
Skip Barland

This video was forwarded to me this morning by David; and it is an open letter written to the Democratic Politicians.
There is also another encouraging movement that has gotten my attention, of late, which I believe is an absolute necessity if we ever are to take our country back. It’s called: “The Restore America Plan” (click link to see video).
It is a grassroots movement where all 50 states of the Union, have already reorganized as a Constitutional Republic, and are taking our country back to the original plan, as it was originally intended by our founding fathers, where once again the U.S. Constitution is the highest law of the land!
We have a very serious situation in our country, and it is because of this that everything is upside down.
No longer is our country operating as a Constitutional Republic; that was changed over 100 years ago, when the District of Columbia was established.
After the Civil War, our nation was bankrupt; and in order to avoid defaulting, these certain stipulations and requirements were put in place at the demand of the international bankers.
In 1913, after the Federal Reserve Act was passed, these stipulations where made permanent.
The result of all of this has caused our entire Banking system, our monetary policies, and our U.S Dollar, to all be under the control of private businessmen, 70% of whom are foreign nationals.
These private businessmen operate without oversight, and are accountable to no one, but to themselves.
Actually, they are the sole owners of the Federal Reserve itself, which is not at all Federal; but it is rather a privately held corporation!
If you’d like to know how it operates, here is a very good video for you to watch; that I think will answer most of your questions:
Today we are operating under something called the “United States Corporation;” and our so called representatives are serving, not as Public Servants; but rather they are officers of the Corporation.
That is why our politicians are no longer responding to the will of the people; and are instead implementing policies and are passing legislation which will only serve to further weaken our economy, as the laws of economics have not been repealed; and as much as they would like you to believe differently, contrary to what the current administration has been telling you, you still can’t get multiplication through division, as Obama continues to spreads the wealth around.
All of this will only serve to bankrupt our nation, and force us into a position where we can either submit to the demands of these very same International Bankers, and accept their currency and New World Order, or our money will be worthless!
We cannot just go back to putting another Republican Administration back in power either, let us not make that mistake again!
We need to get away from this idea that we can only have a Two-Party system; because both Democratic and Republican parties, when it comes to the Globalist agenda, patrician politics and differences aside, both parties are on the same page… and in fact are two sides of the same coin.
Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, George H.W. Bush, it makes no difference, because on the subject of the establishment of a “New World Order” (click link to see video), they are ALL on the same page.
Not only that, but these same bankers today have not only corrupted our two-party political system; but they have also dominated and have controlled our News Media, and also our entertainment industry, as well, for years!
Speaking of the media, I had this article forwarded to me today, from a Canadian Newspaper, regarding the Obama’s eligibility issue, and I thought you might find it interesting: http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/22221.
Folks, please note that the Bible already has predicted these things would happen; and we are today seeing Bible prophecy unfold right before our eyes.
Where will the United States be in all of this, in this New World Order?
I think that depends on the Christians, and whether we implement 2 Chronicles 7:14 or not.
I don’t think it is written in stone that the United States has to be on the side of the Antichrist; and it is my hope and prayer that we wake up in time to take back our country!
Wake up America… and let every Christian be praying!
First of all, why don’t we get a president that is an American Citizen?
One that is a Constitutionalist; who loves our country, and will stand by his oath of office, to protect, defend, and enforce our U.S. Constitution?
Let us have a president who is actually a Christian, who believes in the Ten Commandments, and holds to the same set of Judaic/Christian values that have made our country the most blessed on the planet!
Let us have a president who will put an end to the murdering of innocent babies; a president who believes a marriage should be between one man and one woman; who recognizes that people of aberrant sexual lifestyles and persuasions, as long as they aren’t breaking any laws, they already have the same rights as every other American citizen, under the current laws of our land; and the truth be told, most Americans really don’t care, and nor do they want to know, what these people do in the privacy of their own homes, that’s between them and their god, and is no body’s else’s business.
However with that point understood, nevertheless, most Americans are just plain sick and tired of these people trying to shove your perverted lifestyles down everybody else’s throat!
Let us have a President and a Congress that makes it very clear that if you don’t like our Country, if you don’t wish to be an American Citizen, which means that you respect our laws, our history, our multicultural diversity, made up of people of all nationalities, creeds, and colors; and if you don’t want to respect our long established heritage, as a Christian nation, then please don’t let the door hit you on your backside as you go back to wherever the heck it is that you came from!!!
Anyway that’s my two cents on the subject… how do you feel about it?
Shalom,
Skip Barland

An Open Letter to President Obama on the Occasion of 9/11
By Faye Parrish
Dear President Obama,
I read of your administrations plan to re-define September 11th as a National Service Day. Sir, it’s time we had a talk.
During your campaign, Americans watched as you made mockery of our tradition of standing and crossing your heart when the Pledge of Allegiance was spoken. You, out of four people on the stage, were the only one not honoring our tradition. We noticed.
During one of your many speeches, Americans heard you say that you intended to visit all 57 states. We noticed.
When Senator McCain leaned over at Ground Zero and gently placed a flower on the memorial, you tossed your flower onto the pile without leaning over. We noticed.
Every time you apologized to other countries for America’s position on an issue, we have wondered why you don’t share our pride in this great country. When you have heard foreign leaders berate our country and our beliefs, you have not defended us. We noticed.
When your pastor of 20 years damned America and said that 9/11 was “America’s chickens coming home to roost” and you denied having heard recriminations of that nature, we wondered how that could be. When you later disassociated yourself from that church and pastor because it was politically expedient to do so, we noticed.
When you announced that you would transform America, we wondered why.
With all her faults, America is the greatest country on earth. Sir, if not for America and the people who built her, you wouldn’t be sitting in the White House now. Prior to your election to the highest office in this country, you were a senator from Illinois and from what we can glean from the records available, not a remarkable one. We noticed.
All through your campaign and even now, you have surrounded yourself with individuals who are basically unqualified for the positions to which you appointed them. Worse than that, the majority of them are people who, like you, bear no special affection or respect for this country and her traditions. We noticed.
You are seven months into your term and every morning millions of Americans wake up to a new horror heaped on us by you. You seek to saddle working Americans with a health care/insurance reform package that, along with cap and trade, will bankrupt this nation. We noticed.
We seek, by protesting, to let our representatives know that we are not in favor of these crippling expenditures and we are labeled “un-American,” and “racist.” We wonder how we are supposed to let you know how frustrated we are. You have attempted to make our protests seem isolated. We noticed.
On September 11, 2001 there were no Republicans or Democrats, only Americans. And we all grieved together and helped each other in whatever way we could. The attack on 9/11 was carried out because we are Americans. And we noticed.
There were many of us who prayed that as a black president you could help unite this nation even more. In seven months you have done more to destroy this nation than anyone since 9/11. You have failed us. We noticed.
September 11th is a day of remembrance for all Americans. You propose to make 9/11 a “National Service Day.” While we know that you may not share our reverence for 9/11, we pray that history will report your proposal as what it is…a disgrace.
When Americans come together again, it will be to remove you from office. You have made a mockery of our Constitution and the office that you hold. You have embarrassed and slighted us in foreign visits and policy.
We have noticed all these things. We will deal with you.
This is the caliber of people we need at the helm of our nation!!!
When it comes to knowing the best course for a country to take, or for an individual, the wisest and absolute best advice you can get comes from God’s Word (the Holy Bible), in whatever God says on any given subject.
We are told in the Bible (in Proverbs 9:10) that: “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding.”
In Proverbs 29:2, we are told: “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.”
Folks, look around you and read the handwriting on the wall! As God once spoke to King Belshazzar, of the once great Babylonian empire:
“MENE, MENE, TEKEL, and PHARSIN”
This is the interpretation: MENE, God has numbered the days of your kingdom and brought it to an end; TEKEL, you have been weighed on the scales and found wanting; PERES, your kingdom is divided and given to the Medes and Persians.[
As history shows, that very night, the great and mighty empire of Babylon fell.
Likewise we are there ourselves, folks, as many nations who have gone before us; and may God help us if we can’t see the handwriting on the wall; and discern that our nations also is in serious trouble today, as these people who are at the helm of our country, who are directing and making the decisions for our nation’s future, and the future of generations to come, are about as far away from God and His ways as anyone can be!
In fact, as Billy Graham once said, “If God doesn’t judge our nation, He will have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah.”
As just one example, this is how far our society today has drifted away from the God of the Bible, in that for years now, for several generations, as it is even today, we have young people are who are being taught in our public schools, and in our secular colleges and universities, this nonsense called “situation ethics,” which says the ends justifies the means.
This is our problem, in that we’ve had several generations now who have grown up where their only moral compass, that is driving their decisions, is not based on anything the Bible says; but rather it is based upon something called “Political Correctness,” where everyone makes decisions based upon whatever the current flavor of the month happens to be, according to the ever changing winds of the political atmosphere at the time; or they make their decisions based soley upon what seems good and right to them, personally… with no attention given whatsoever as to what God might have to say, or what the Bible teaches.
So consequently, we have politicians who get elected to office by saying what they think the people want to hear, but they never follow through and keep their promises.
As just one example of what I’m talking about, just listen to the current man who now sits in the White House.
Listen to these promises that he made in the past, in order to get elected; and then compare that to what he has done in the resent passage of several pieces of legislation, which are costing us literally hundreds of billions of dollars, where we didn’t have the open forums and opportunity to review and read about them, and what they contained, as he promised; but rather they were rammed through both houses, without even our legislators having the opportunity to understand or read what was in them… and in doing so, Obama broke everyone of his promises to the American people, regarding transparency and openness.
Here is another huge reason why our nation is in trouble today; and it has to do with the way we are raising our children, and what they are being taught in our public school system today.
We are totally dropping the ball here, folks, in that our entire public educational system, at all levels, instead of teaching (as we once did) about what the Bible says, about the Ten Commandments, and the difference between right and wrong; we are instead teaching our children that belief in God, and the knowledge of His Word (The Bible), that both are absolutely irrelevant to anything that is of any consequence or importance in their life… and as I’ve said, this has been going on for several generations!
So is it any wonder that our nation is where it is today?
After having had several generations that have been taught this nonsense, we can plainly see the results in that we have a nation today, where more so than at any other time in our history, we can say that the blind are leading the blind… and if we aren’t careful, just as the Bible warns will happen, we will all fall into the ditch, if we fail to wake up and repent!
Let us not be deceived by lying spirits and corrupt politicians, with hidden agendas; but rather let’s stop this present downward spiral that our nations is taking, and let’s get righteous men and women in positions of leadership, who are there to represent our interest, instead of their own, and who also have a personal relationship and reverence for the God of the Bible! Selah
Shalom,
Skip Barland

WOW!!!
STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND LISTEN TO THIS MAN!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is what we call, A Truly Great American!
Talk about telling it like it is.
This should be required listening to all in the U.S.
Allen West for President!
Impressive, I believe we’ll be seeing more of Lt. Col. West in the future...
Below is a video clip of a speech given by Lt.Col. (retd) Allen West who served as a commander in Iraq, and talking about Islam. Listen to this man, and scroll barely down under his speaking platform, where you will not find his words printed on the screen as he speaks. This man put Barack Hussein Obama, some of our leaders, politicians and the media to shame in his speech and never called any by name. You will probably listen to it more than once.
This story was also reported in the Globe and also in the National Inquirer. There have also been several other publicized reports, regarding Obama in the past, in the Enquirer. Now if you are like most people, myself included, the National Enquirer would not be anything I would buy, or look to for any kind of story; but based on some information I have just read, I think we might want to rethink that opinion.The National Enquires’ reputation apparently has been changing lately; and I understand that they have even been considered for a Pulitzer Prize; and as an example, here are 7 times in the past when they got their story right, and were very accurate in their investigative reporting.
