It is quite suggestive that Obama could provide a decent showing in the debates, exhibit eloquence, be a rising star, far outspend McCain in television ads and other campaign promotions, and yet only eek out a minor lead in the polls. And polls that propose an even greater lead have been shown to be dubious in that they polled more Democrats than Republicans.
Below is the first of 29 segments of the moving documentary, In the Face of Evil: Reagan’s War in Word and Deed. Each of the segments should be watched. Expect there to be tears, smiles, anger, concern, and encouragement. Above all, take to hear the lessons we may learn and bring to bear on our decisions during this election season (see http://www.kevinbywater.com/weblog/?p=173). Examine your heart and see who would be the better choice for our freedom and the freedom of others. We cannot now afford to be ignorant of our history if we seek to secure our future.
Steve Turner, in his book, Imagine: A Vision for Christians in the Arts (p. 22), writes,
The Christian artist will often be an irritant, disturbing the anthropocentric view of the world that fallen nature naturally gravitates toward. Just as people think they have removed God from all consideration of a particular question, the Christian annoyingly puts him back on the agenda in some way. And when God is back on the agenda, people are forced to deal with him, even if only to try to marginalize him again.
Artists as persistent prophets. Yes, may it be so; but may it be more.
So, as our Commander in Chief, Obama would like to make us defenseless.
Simply put, this must be watched! A breath of fresh air, even if one doesn’t agree with everything Morris says.
