CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIANS; MICHELLE OBAMA & THE “B” WORD

Why would someone want to connect themselves with the term “Christian Conservative” when people like Burt Prelutsky represents them? The nation would be in an uproar if someone had called Barbara Bush a “bitch.” The country got upset when Jesse Jackson before the election called then Senator Obama the “N” word. But just think, use your holy imagination to vision how much more the magnitude of the uproar would have been if he had called George Bush’s wife or the then President's mother a “bitch?” The people who own Townhall are supposed to be conservative Christians. Prager, Ann Coulter, and Michael Medved, Thomas Sowell, etc, are all columnist on that website supposedly owned by people who call themselves conservative Christians. This term “conservative Christian” really was confusing me. How can someone who calls someone intentionally out of their name, out of their human character, identify themselves as a Christian?

Therefore, I looked it up in the Encarta World English Dictionary. Conservative is defined “as reluctant to accept change” (p. 386). Conservatism is defined “as a right-wing political viewpoint” (p. 386). Those are the words of the dictionary, not mine. I will have something to say once I lay the foundation, but it is the dictionary that defines “conservatism: as a right-wing political viewpoint.” This same dictionary defines “Christian” as a “believer in Jesus Christ as savior, somebody who believes that Jesus of Nazareth was sent to the world by God to save humanity, and who tries to follow his teachings and example” (p. 325). This same dictionary defines “Christ” as “Jesus Christ, the messiah according to the Bible, a savior who would come to deliver God’s chosen people” (p. 325). Hummm.

So to synthesize these definitions I would conclude that Christian Conservatives as defined by Dennis Prager and Salem Communications is someone who is a right-winger who is reluctant to change because they feel they are chosen by Jesus the Mesiah who will be sent by God to the world to save humanity, and calling the First Lady of the United States of America, Michelle Obama, a “bitch” is an example of Jesus’ behavior and teachings which will cause Jesus to acknowledge conservatives as His chosen. Dawn you call yourself a Christian Conservative. From your writings on this blog, surely you don't agree with these Christian Conservatives, do you? Are you happy to be associated with this crowd? What scripture reference are they using?

Jesus inadvertently referred to the Canaanite woman as a “dog” (Matthew 15:21-28), is this their scriptural reference? Let me just share that scripture:

Jesus left that place and went away to the district of Tyre and Sidon. Just then a Canaanite woman from that region came out and started shouting. “Have mercy on me , Lord, Son of David; my daughter is tormented by a demon.” But He did not answer her at all. And his disciples came and urged him, saying, “Send her away, for she keeps shouting after us. He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” But she came and knelt before him, saying, “Lord help me.” He answered, “It is not fair to take the children’s food and throw it to the dogs.” She said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table.” Then Jesus answered her, “Woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as you wish.” And her daughter was healed instantly.

If this is the scripture then they need to read on. Obviously, this woman, who was a Canaanite, which means she was a Black woman, made Jesus change his mission. For later in Matthew 28:19 Jesus expands the mission beyond the “lost sheep of Israel” when he tells the disciples to “go forth into all the nations and make disciples. If conservatives call themselves reluctant to change from Jesus’ behavior in Matthew 15 then they need to read on to the end of the book. Wouldn’t you say these conservative so-called Christians need to repent and apologize to our First Lady? Now you do say you are disgruntled, so are you disgruntled with these people who call themselves Christian Conservatives? If so, I can see why. Please help us to understand.

I cannot even begin to fathom that Jesus now would support anyone calling any woman a girl dog let alone using that derogatory term in reference to the First Lady of this nation. Obvious to me, these so-called Christian are not reluctant to change from the teachings or behavior of Jesus that we find in the Bible. They are locked in the past. My studies would not lead me to equate calling our First Lady out of her name as a Christian attitude, or Christlike behavior. That raises the question; from what are these conservatives reluctant to change?

From Prager’s words it appears that racism and sexism might be high on the list. That behavior needs to be history in this nation. Unfortunately, it keeps rearing its ugly head in our present day life. Christian Conservatives would have us to believe that just because a Black man is now President of the United States that racism has been erased and forever diminished from the nation's landscape. Prelutsky helps us to clearly see that racism is still alive and well in America. Some will defend Prelutsky by saying lighten up. It's a joke. Well it ain't too funny to me. 

Carefully read the following. You will understand why I say what I say. We truly must decrease this conservative so-called Christian hate and increase genuine Christian love. Thank you for listening to AjabuSpeaks.

Townhall: Michelle Obama is a Bitch, Get It?

Mar. 23, 2009

Burt Prelutsky was a TV writer a long time ago. Then he aged out of it and became a crank. This wasn't one of those major loses like Steinbeck. Now he writes a column for Townhall.com, the popular website owned by a Christian radio network. Here's something from his current offering: Take Michelle Obama...please. Every time I turn around, there she is on a magazine cover. Now, normally, like the Mafia, I lay off the spouses, but inasmuch as this particular spouse attended the same racist church as her hubby for 20 years, I'll make an exception in her case. After all, in spite of the fact that affirmative action got her an Ivy League degree and a $7,000-a-week salary and, moreover, has sent billions of dollars for no particularly good reason to Africa, she insists this is a mean country. The burning question in my circle is: if the First Family gets a female dog, will she be the First Bitch or will she have to settle for second place? Get it? Because "bitch" had two meanings! Ah, Christian-sponsored humor. That's not just funny. That's Jesus funny. Weird that Burt Prelutsky doesn't work more. Because that "take my wife... please" bit is also pure dynamite. Must be ageism. Naturally, the left-wing media is now trying to convince us that this James Brown-look-alike has all the allure, glamour and fashion sense of Jackie Kennedy. She's not pretty, for heaven's sakes! She's black! She's a black bitch! You can read the rest at Townhall.
