Aint that the truth, for fear is the emotion that overrules reason, fear is the perfect tool to manipulate the weak.

For another president said: "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself"

I am no fan of the Obama administration, but when I received this email in my own inbox, I deleted it immediately recognizing it for being manipulative, fear-mongering, and politically motivated propganda posing as something "spiritual" that could and would produce nothing positive. I was truly saddened that someone I care about would be taken in by it and forward it to me.

Please don't just delete hate-driven stuff like that.

Take the time to check it out on snopes or truthorfiction.com and send it back, not just to the sender, but to "all." Since most people don't delete the list of addresses it's already been through, you'll spread the truth back to where the lie came from.

A lie unchallenged soon becomes accepted as truth. Fight back.

My question to those who perpetuate stupid rumors and lies (in the name of God, of course) about President Obama...what are you REALLY afraid of? I sure don't remember such vitriolic opposition to Bill Clinton. Hmmm...
Hi there, Snuffy.

I think people are afraid of moving on together. They are afraid of losing the Big Game. Fear is rampant. Babylon is all about mystery and "gods ways are higher than ours," I guess, not common sense. Secrecy, conspiracies, hells and heavens...

Commons sense means having to think, and having to think hard, especially now with so much information floating about. Bottom line; love they neighbor as thyself...Not bomb, starve, and scam them to stay in power. Babylon sure is a mysterious place.

(I know racism plays a big part in some of what's going on right now, but I just can't quite come to terms with it, at the moment. It has always boggled my mind)
