The latest Obama email


My Mom called me this afternoon warning me about the latest Obama email--and warning me not to publish it--just in case I got it. She said, (and she's a right wing conservative, but a bible thumper first) it's terrible--they didn't read the rest of the Psalms. 

I told her I never got it. Send me your's. So she did. And here is the version she got:

We were in Pigeon Forge over the week end.  On Sunday, we left to come home.  Traffic was moving slowly, and a car in front of us had an Obama bumper sticker on it.  It read:  "Pray for Obama.  Psalm 109:8". 
 
Mike's Bible was lying on the dash board.  He got it, opened it up to the scripture, and read it.  He started laughing and laughing.  Then he read it to me.  I couldn't believe what it said.  I had a good laugh, too.
     <><>
Psalm 109:8
Let his days be few; Let another take his office

Notice the bible on the dashboard?  Now this morning, I got a phone call  from someone asking me--"Where does it say to pray for our leaders?" And I said, "Romans 13:1-2." I was wondering how that came up. So now I know.

But did anyone read Psalms 109:9-10?

9  Let his children be fatherless,
        
and his wife a widow.
10  Let his children be continually vagabonds, and beg:
        
let them seek their bread also out of their desolate places.

Now just to make sure, I'm not on the President's hit list, I'll put up a picture, on behalf of all those who thought it was funny--and didn't read the next two verses.

  3. Listening to your inner sarcasm at this point in time is what will make you money. It has been working for me, and it clearly has been working for you. Unless I am missing something.
