Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 2 Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves. 3 For rulers hold no terror for those who do right, but for those who do wrong. Do you want to be free from fear of the one in authority? Then do what is right and you will be commended. 4 For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason. They are God’s servants, agents of wrath to bring punishment on the wrongdoer. 5 Therefore, it is necessary to submit to the authorities, not only because of possible punishment but also as a matter of conscience.
6 This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. 7 Give to everyone what you owe them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.
Romans 13:1-7
“You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?
Matt 5:43-47

For the umpteenth time, fascism and socialism are completely different. (By the way, Obama is neither.)

But it's okay for Romney to gut American companies and leave the employees (some of whom are trying to take care of children who are actually born) desperately impoverished?

Same old, same old. Listen, go and live in North Korea for a month. You'll soon see the difference between a dictatorship, and a country that simply allows women the right to bodily autonomy, gay marriage, and for poor people to have some access to healthcare.

If Obama's administration remind you of Hitler's, then Obama is not extreme socialist, but extreme right-wing, stupid. Hitler only called it National-socialism to lure the masses. He took jobs from Jews and gave them to Aryans, which is hardly a tenet of Socialism.
Just as many "babies" where "murdered" during Dubbya's years in office. Nothing has changed in the abortion department, really. Hitler was fundamentally AGAINST abortions; he wanted as many little aryan babies as possible, which could grow up to become aryan solders and aryan housewives, who could then have even more little aryan babies, etc, etc, etc. Having an abortion in Nazi Germany was probably punishable by death. I bet you wish you could do that...
How is it "promoting abortion" to intend to keep status quo? Then Dubbya also "promoted abortions", asshole! According to the Bible, God has nothing against abortions; kids were not really counted in Biblical time until 40 days after birth.

Oh for fuck's sakes, Obama does not promote murdering babies and Hitler was a million miles from being a socialist.
Can't you idiots find some new shit to amuse us with? This stuff is stale, man.

You mean an "extreme socialist agenda" like Jesus had, with all of that pesky help for the poor and the sick?

If Barack Obama is a socialist then he is the worst socialist leader ever in human history.

"I do not consider the Obama Administration to be incompetent. "
That puts them one up on the Bush regime.
"They remind me of Hitler's program of lies and murder to achieve their power."
Hitler outlawed the teaching of evolution and put gays in prison camps. The Republic party wants to outlaw the teaching of evolution and put gays in prison camps. They remind me of Hitlers program to achieve power.
"I can't see where a vile administration promoting abortion etc. is "God's Will"."
You're right. Hitler made abortion a crime. Also he had a cool belt buckle.
The troubling historical evidence suggests that the churches refrained from criticizing the Nazi regime, not so much because they were afraid or apolitical, but because they often found themselves in agreement with the regime. Keep an eye on the base of the Tea Party… Radical theocons drive the party from beneath the dark GOP underbelly…

Where are all the socialist policies? Tha's right, nowhere, no fuck off.
Obama is as much a socialist as John Boehner.

I find it somehow funny that after more than 80 years after Hitler called his party the National Socialist Workers’ Party to lure people in there are still some morons who buy it…
Also, as far as I can tell it from here, Obama did exactly the same amount of things for or against abortion as Bush. So why was Bush God’s chosen one and Obama is promoting “murdering babies”?
@The Watcher:
Remember when the Nazis gave everyone healthcare?
Oh, Germany had socialized healthcare under the Nazis, but only because we have had it since the 1800s!
I suppose the Nazis wouldn’t have dared to abolish it, also it helped them to keep the population healthy, so the men could be better soldiers and the women could pop out more and healthier children.
(And to add further irony, the healthcare and social security was originally installed by one of history’s biggest conservative politicians, Count Otto von Bismarck!)

Yeah, I voted for Obama because he said he wants to force everyone to get an abortion. Oh wait...
If people voted for Obama because he promotes abortion, then obviously a majority of the country supports abortion rights. Didn't think about that one, did you? And if Christian prayers to God to let Romney win went unanswered, an administration promoting abortion must be God's will. Didn't think about that either, did you?

Why do these people think that the "Nazi" of Hitler actually represents the actual "National-Socialist" party? He only used it to get backing, he never really represented them at all. Then again, these are the same kind of people that take the Bible at face value, word for word, literally. If the Bible told them that jumping off bridges led to salvation, they would do it.

They have an extreme socialist agenda which they are clearly succeeding in accomplishing. They remind me of Hitler's program of lies and murder to achieve their power.
If you are going make up bullshit at least learn the meanings of words; he's either a Communist, or he's a Fascist, but he can't be both.
Also, who has Obama sent off to death camps?
And if you want to talk about lies, look at Romney.
Obama's promotion of murdering babies has been part of why he is succeeding.
So when did Bush do anything to save all those "murdered babies"?

Actually, in general, abortions go down under Democratic administrations. ALso, Socialism=/=Fascism. Learn your historiums.
If the administration has been incompetent, it's primarily due to the obstructionist teabaggers... like you.

Yeah, Obama's is succeeding because he prompts murdering babies. Patently you live in the wrong country if the majority of people want to murder babies. Instead of praying, which is always fruitless, I recommend you move to a more suitable country.

Actually, he's right. Obama was able to complete 109 of his 2008 campaign promises and that was with half of our political system throwing a temper tantrum the whole time. He reduced unemployment from 15 million to 12 million in 4 years with unheard of levels of opposition against his every move.
Imagine what he can do now that the Republicans have realized that not playing ball and going further right is not a winning strategy?

The President has no control over abortion. Obama hasn't done anything different than the Bushes or Reagan on the issue.

"Obama's promotion of murdering babies has been part of why he is succeeding"
That would account for the success of Nixon, Ford, Reagan, George HW Bush and George W Bush, then.
