As the anti-Obama rhetoric machine (“A vote for Obama is a vote for Islamo Nazi-Commie-vegan-sapphicism!!!!”) gives up that last little pinky-hold on reality, this little gem dropped in mail boxes this morning from Dave Welch, executive director of the U.S. Pastor Council.

It is always compelling when God decides that enough is enough and begins pulling out the “props” in our lives that we have replaced Him with. Ike, Obama and Fannie Mae are examples of how His sovereign hand as well as the natural consequences of our rebellion so quickly reveal that our false gods are exactly that and our material obsessions can be taken in a blast of wind, an election or a financial “house of cards” collapsing.

Seriously. Is there not a point when writing this kind of stuff when the author goes, “Wow. This is. Wow. What was I thinking?”

Funny footnote: If you Google “U.S. Pastor Council”, the search engine says “This site may harm your computer.” Awesome.
