The Destruction of Judeo-Christian Morality Reaches the White House

Well, that didn’t take long.
It has been less than 48 hours since President Obama was crowned, excuse me, inaugurated. Yet, he has already begun his attack on the traditional Judeo-Christian values that have shaped this nation since its inception. Thanks to www.massresistance.org I was alerted to the administration’s recent postings on the White House website (http://www.whitehouse.gov/agenda/civil_rights/). Among these entries is our new president’s “civil rights” agenda. Below are several of the items listed on the site:

$ Expand Hate Crimes Statutes: President Obama and Vice President Biden will strengthen federal hate crimes legislation, expand hate crimes protection by passing the Matthew Shepard Act, and reinvigorate enforcement at the Department of Justice's Criminal Section.

(The Act, according to www.massresistance.org, would allow the federal government to prosecute an individual if his/her criminal actions were ‘"motivated by prejudice based on the actual or perceived . . . gender, sexual orientation, gender identity" of the victim’.)
$ Fight Workplace Discrimination: President Obama supports the Employment Non-Discrimination Act, and believes that our anti-discrimination employment laws should be expanded to include sexual orientation and gender identity.

$ Support Full Civil Unions and Federal Rights for LGBT Couples: President Obama supports full civil unions that give same-sex couples legal rights and privileges equal to those of married couples. Obama also believes we need to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act and enact legislation that would ensure that the 1,100+ federal legal rights and benefits currently provided on the basis of marital status are extended to same-sex couples in civil unions and other legally-recognized unions.

$ Repeal Don't Ask-Don't Tell: President Obama agrees with former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff John Shalikashvili and other military experts that we need to repeal the "don't ask, don't tell" policy.

$ Expand Adoption Rights: President Obama believes that we must ensure adoption rights for all couples and individuals, regardless of their sexual orientation. He thinks that a child will benefit from a healthy and loving home, whether the parents are gay or not.


So America. Still think you voted for a man who is not a leftist? Still think our president is a man trying to find the center, someone who is reaching out to all across the political spectrum?

Hardly.

But I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by Obama’s brazenness considering the demigod status many Americans have bestowed on him. Celebrities are among those who have made the silliest comments sanctifying our new president. Catholic News Services published some of them today (http://www.cnsnews.com/public/content/article.aspx?RsrcID=42227) Talk show host/media magnate Oprah Winfrey credits President Obama for making her “want to be a better human being.” Not to be outdone hip-hop mogul Jay-Z confessed that “Obama changed my life in the same way he has changed your life.” Sorry, Jay-Z. But it will take a lot more than a few inspirational speeches for someone to get credit for changing my life, unless of course those speeches were made by the Son of God. And speaking of God that reminds me of the dumbest comment uttered yesterday by an inaugural attendee. This misguided individual asserted that when you listen to President Obama “you feel like God is speaking to you”.

Oh, brother.

Stay tuned, folks. Obama’s assault on traditional values and our nation’s continued worship of him has just begun.
