The Case Against BO

John Armstrong:
David Freddoso, a political reporter for the National Review Online, has written what seems to me to be the best "critical" book against the election of Barack Obama of them all. Book98_obama The Case Against Barack Obama: The Unlikely Rise and Unexamined Agenda of the Media's Favorite Candidate came out in July and became an immediate best-seller. I have mentioned before that I have followed Obama's political rise in Illinois for some years now. But even I didn't know a number of the things that Freddoso includes in this very well-written critique.

What separates Freddoso's book from other similarly critical works about Senator Obama is that he does not use the silly charges that have been thrown against Obama by some far right critics. Freddoso dismisses, for example, the idea that Obama is really a Muslim, that he was sworn into office on the Koran, that he hates the American flag, and the national anthem. He avoids character assassination completely and thereby sticks to the central claim of the Obama campaign:
Barack Obama is a great reformer who will introduce an era of non-partisan political government that will help the nation rise above the red state/blue state divide and the present impasse in Washington.

You can find this book here. If you are honestly still thinking about who you should vote for, consider this book. The chapter on abortion is really all you need to read to know that any thinking Christian should never vote for this man.

Interestingly, when I saw this post just now, I couldn't get the words out of my mind "He did what was evil in the sight of the LORD," applying to Obama and what he'll do if elected president.

1 Kings 15:34
He did what was evil in the sight of the LORD and walked in the way of Jeroboam and in his sin which he made Israel to sin.
