    The real hidden message of Bobby May and the Buchanan GOP

    You've got to see this to believe it - from the Buchanan County GOP Web site -

    http://bucgop.com/blog13/letters-and-comments/

    An excerpt -

    "Our God is a mighty God who is waiting patiently for us to raise our voices to heaven to stop the tide of the anti-Christ actions in our world today. Now we find we have a charismatic candidate for President... whose own wife and pastor that he loves profess to have strong anti-white feelings and we sit back and say “it is a given, we can do nothing.”

    "It is time for all Christian Americans to raise the battle cry and take our nation back."

    "Maybe McCain on his own cannot defeat Obama but our God can and He will if we take to our knees in prayer and raise a mighty cry to the heavens to 'Save us O Lord'."

    "We have the power to change the course of this election and to keep a man as suspect as Barak Obama from leading our country to who knows where with his message of “change” - a change which I fear will be away from our Christian ideals and away from Christ and further away one nation under God to one nation under Allah."

    "George Bush is being buffeted because he has fought a holy war"
