"
We are God's partners in matters of life and death"?????? What kind of unsurpassed arrogance is this? I swear, maybe some of the people who think B.O. is the Antichrist are onto something here. Has any other politician in modern memory claimed to be a "partner" (and thus "equal") with God, and in matters of who lives and who dies? And he says this as the country erupts with angry citizens, terrified at the prospect of a federal bureaucracy set in place by Obama to decide who gets what care - if any?
And I don't want to hear any blather about how he "misspoke." There are dozens of things he could have said. He could have said that God asks us all to
aid each other through life and death. He could have said that our faith requires that we
assist those who are sick and dying. His particular phraseology, however, says something very different.
