What do you think about the self-proclaimed Christians that are out canvassing for Barack Obama?
I pray that I do not harden my heart for them, as I work with a few, and go to church with a few. But, I just do not understand their reasoning, if they are true Christians.

Have you tried asking them what their reasoning is, or are you doing the time honoured religious trick of guessing the answer from a vague first observation, without making any serious attempt to gather further, more detailed information? If you took the latter approach, your confusion is at least understandable, but you're an idiot either way.
No, a true Christian would go to their pastor and ask who they should vote for. Once they've been told they cast the vote they've been instructed to, and bleat about how the land of the free is God's country.
What's to understand? They're Christians, backing a Christian nominee for President.
Seems simple enough to me.
"What do you think about the self-proclaimed Christians that are out canvassing for Barack Obama?"
So do you now have to be proclaimed to be a Christian now? What's the difference between a self proclaimed and just plain proclaimed Christian??
The reasoning goes a little like this:
"Maybe I should mind my own damn business concerning trivial shit like gay marriage, and focus on important things like the economy, health care, the environment, education and all the other things that improve the quality of life for everyone. Also, I've seen lot's of studies that abortion rates are considerably lower when Democrats are in office since the higher quality of life often makes abortions unnecessary."
But HisAlways, the fact that fundies are scared shitless of him getting in makes me want him to be President more than any campaign ever could.
Almost (almost) makes me wish I was American so I could vote for him. But on the whole I'm still glad I don't have to share a country with you.
I'm honestly not sure if this comment is all that racist. Sure, it sounds pretty bad, but this guy might just have been talking about supporting one of "them filthy northern liberals." Could go either way.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
