THE PEOPLE WANT A KING

Not Martin Luther King.

"...God says in 1 Samuel 1:9 "Now listen to them; but warn them solemnly and let them know what the king who will reign over them will do."Then God says 1st Samuel 1:18 "When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, and the LORD will not answer you in that day.19, But the people refused to listen to Samuel. "No!" they said. "We want a king over us. 20, then we will be like all the other nations, with a king to lead us and to go out before us and fight our battles." 2, When Samuel heard all that the people said, he repeated it before the LORD. 22, The LORD answered, "Listen to them and give them a king."

Brutal realities may dim Obama's fire

"And then we will see Obama start to sweat. Because the public is impatient. People want to see America change right now, this very instant. They want to see how poverty shrinks, the homeless get housing, the blacks and Hispanics become middle-class, the losses on Wall Street are erased, the strangulating mortgages disappear, the lay-offs stop and recession turns into growth.

"But these are miracles that even the super-charismatic Obama cannot perform. Oratory, however brilliant, will not suffice. A very frustrating era thus lies ahead, as the American idol of today becomes tomorrow's punching bag."
