Sorry, the chicken clucked - it's a chicken.

The direction of the majority, or whatever is popular at the moment, is not necessarily a good token of the right way to go. Majorities have been wrong to much. That's why we are where we are, now.

By his own words, Obama preaches an extreme contrast to his very recent walk. I don't have to call him who he is. By his own words and his own book, he is saying, now, the exact opposite from the way he lived his life and lead his family. If a chicken clucks, guess what - it's a chicken, contrary to all its efforts to be a bald eagle.

I watched his debate with Alan Keyes. He faked the noises of an eagle. It was very obvious he was playing to what the audience (the majority) wanted to hear. He clearly clucked. Ask an eagle.

I will pray for Obama. Where he walks as the Christian he said he was, I will give him my support. When he diverts, I will call him on it.
