Hahahahahahahahahahahaha! I feel like I just passed through a door and heard the lock on the other side. And I’m not in Narnia. No. Not in Narnia. But here’s what I’d like to say about the events of the last two days: Hahahahahahahahahahahahahah! Oops. More maniacal laughter. My husband likes to read economic news letters to which he subscribes, and the words of one particularly erudite contributor keep coming to my mind: “We’re freakin’ doomed!” The funny thing is, I was feeling this way back when John McCain became the Republican candidate. I have no candidate. I have no party. Doomed.
That was the first time it really came home. Then we were treated to the fantastic transformation of a complete neophyte dark horse (no pun intended. really.) in the democrat party by a tsunami of personality cult. I haven’t seen anything like it since the advent of the Beatles. Bowing. Scraping. Palm fronds…. How else did a man with so little real life experience in governing get to this place? How else did a man who says everything with his nose in the air ever become so popular with people who have nothing? And how, by the way, did the Republican party misread their constituents so perfectly? Their noses were in the air, too.
Add Joe Biden, contradicting Obama on a regular basis, and Sarah Palin who could see Russia from her house, and Barnum & Bailey just never stood a chance. Their shows paled by comparison.
Barak Hussein Obama isn’t our doom. McCain wouldn’t have been our doom. No. The empty suit church is killing the country. The tolerant church is spreading the death knell. The gospel of ‘everyone happy’ is digging the grave. If the church doesn’t repent……we’re freakin’ doomed.
On the other hand, our new president may be very instrumental in causing the church to rethink a few things….. Nebuchadnezzar was pretty effective…..

From this week’s lesson in Isaiah (spoken about the people of Judah): Therefore in that day the Lord God of hosts called you to weeping, to wailing, To shaving the head and to wearing sackcloth. Instead, there is gaiety and gladness, Killing of cattle and slaughtering of sheep, Eating of meat and drinking of wine; “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we may die.” – 22:12&13 NAS

It is so time for the sackcloth.
