Because 158% of registered voters voted in some counties?

Perhaps God has sent another Orphaned King to teach us?

“Then I will draw near to you for judgment. I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those who oppress the hired worker in his wages, the widow and the fatherless, against those who thrust aside the sojourner, and do not fear me, says the Lord of hosts. Malachi 3:5

They have grown fat and sleek. They know no bounds in deeds of evil; they judge not with justice the cause of the fatherless, to make it prosper, and they do not defend the rights of the needy. Jeremiah 5:28

"You shall not pervert the justice due to the sojourner or to the fatherless," Deuteronomy 24:17

Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy.Ezekiel 16;14

To turn aside the needy from justice and to rob the poor of my people of their right, that widows may be their spoil, and that they may make the fatherless their prey! Isiah 10:2

When I woke up on 11/6/12 I prayed for my family, friends and a Obama win, my prayers was answered. I wonder if all of the folks who were worshiping Rick Perry can say the same?

I find it very funny to hear Conservatives using the Lord as a platform to push their agenda.

Your prayers will take you right into poverty. You voted for the destruction of America... obama is a communist who hates America and you fell right into it...

No, He is just letting us have what we wanted. Well some of us. Some people won't learn until they pee on the electric fence and God knows that.

As I understand it, the right wng Christian god is all-knowing and all-powerful.

That being the case, Obama's bid victory could be nothing but god's will.

What appalls me is the hatred the so called Christians have taken out on anyone who did NOT vote for Romney- My daughter will not return to her church because it has become political... where is the love folks? but I did hear TV babtist preacher (Haggee) yest on TV say yes the church has waxed cold. Politics is part of who we areas as Americans, free is how we should be in THIS country and definetely in the church our Jesus died for. SHAME on those looking down on their brothers and sisters for voting their concience,,, shame! Jesus died for for our freedom and soldiers died for our national freedom... who are you to take that away?? WHO? ONLY the accuser points the finger,,, what spirit are you following?
