Sunday Church Services With Bill and Chelsea

March 02, 2008 10:17 AM

We're church-hopping with Sen. Hillary Clinton's family this morning. We're at Rev. Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church in Houston right now. It looks exactly like it does on TV.

The former president and former first daughter are in the front row, seeming to enjoy the Grammy Award- winning pop gospel of "Israel & New Breed."

Chelsea Victoria in particular seems to be God-rockin' out. (She's not alone here! The parishioners love it.)

Two more churches to go this morning, followed by a full day of events in smaller, rural towns that Mrs. Clinton needs to turn out for her Tuesday -- Abilene, Wichita Falls, Marshall.

The race here, according to polls, is tighter than a tick.

Happy Sunday to you.

No-good-judgment, Jesus indeed is God himself.

Why do you think God chose for an incarnation among us as a young and inexperienced man who changes the world by the use of words, speeches and good deeds? Just a question to think about.

King, if you are Christian, you should know Jesus Christ is the God himself, he is the creator as well as savior of the world.......He is the judgment of righteous and evil..

Obama vs Jesus???

It amazes me that Obama is winning the delegate vote / has won 11 straight states / is winning the popular vote, and yet all the media coverage is about Clinton.

Obama has right leadership, skills and judgment and experience to lead this country.. He can inspire people and offer hope and change of future over past, he has vision to bring people together.
Here are some examples for your reference:
1. Leadership: Unknown - no record for Obama holding any public executive positions in Federal and state government or city hall.
2. Skill: excellent - good at turning issues around by "I didn't mean it, what I meant is....",
3. Judgment: excellent - very good at house market and just bought his house away below market value
4. Hope: self described as a blank screen
5. Vision: to bring people together - sounds familiar
6. Inspiration: the same good as pastor
7. Change: Excellent - has made a lot of house improvement with the help of his pal Rezko
8. Experiences: Excellent - specialized in pressing two buttons: YES or NO...Sorry forget the third one "Present"....

WestCoastMessenger, I do not intend to vote for the most experienced sinners, spinners, liars and traitors even if they claim experience to be a great quality.

For it simply isn't. Jesus Christ had no experience when he stood up against the men who had betrayed the faith of his fathers. JC had his words, his speeches and his good deeds. He was young, inexperienced but sincere and truthful. He had a message of hope and change.

Mr. Obama is no messiah; he is however politician on the right track. He's the most decent individual we have seen on the American polical stage in our lifetime. And you know it, but hate toagree on it, because decency is such a great threat to sinners and cynics everywhere.

Hey King, let ye who have not sinned cast the first stone. I bet you'd be way at the end of that particular line. Yes, we're going to elect an imperfect president, aren't we, but at least we'll be electing the Democrat with the most experience, therefore, we'll see the least number of "boy that was a dumb mistake"(quote of Obama regarding his relationship with Rezko) won't we.
