here's a real christian for you. reverend wright got nothin on this one!

Kansas Speaker of the House Mike O’Neal sent an email to his Republican colleagues containing a shocking personal message with Bible verse Psalm 109 that he uses as a prayer for the assassination of President Obama.

Here’s the email message”

“At last — I can honestly voice a Biblical prayer for our president! Look it up — it is word for word! Let us all bow our heads and pray. Brothers and Sisters, can I get an AMEN? AMEN!!!!!!

Let his days be few; and let another take his office

May his children be fatherless and his wife a widow.

May his children be wandering beggars; may they be driven from their ruined homes.

May a creditor seize all he has; may strangers plunder the fruits of his labor.

May no one extend kindness to him or take pity on his fatherless children

Good move in your paraphrasing...

The whole verse is this:


A Cry for Vengeance


To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.



1

Hold not thy peace, O God of my praise;

2

for the mouth of the wicked and the mouth of the deceitful are opened against me:



they have spoken against me with a lying tongue.

3

They compassed me about also with words of hatred;



and fought against me without a cause.

4

For my love they are my adversaries:



but I give myself unto prayer.

5

And they have rewarded me evil for good,



and hatred for my love.

6

Set thou a wicked man over him:



and let Satan stand at his right hand.

7

When he shall be judged, let him be condemned:



and let his prayer become sin.

8

Let his days be few;



and let another take his office. Acts 1.20

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.

11

Let the extortioner catch all that he hath;



and let the strangers spoil his labor.

12

Let there be none to extend mercy unto him:



neither let there be any to favor his fatherless children.

13

Let his posterity be cut off;



and in the generation following let their name be blotted out.

14

Let the iniquity of his fathers be remembered with the LORD;



and let not the sin of his mother be blotted out.

15

Let them be before the LORD continually,



that he may cut off the memory of them from the earth.

16

Because that he remembered not to show mercy,



but persecuted the poor and needy man,

that he might even slay the broken in heart.

17

As he loved cursing,



so let it come unto him:

as he delighted not in blessing,

so let it be far from him.

18

As he clothed himself with cursing like as with his garment,



so let it come into his bowels like water,

and like oil into his bones.

19

Let it be unto him as the garment which covereth him,



and for a girdle wherewith he is girded continually.

20

Let this be the reward of mine adversaries from the LORD,



and of them that speak evil against my soul.

21

But do thou for me, O GOD the Lord, for thy name's sake:



because thy mercy is good, deliver thou me.

22

For I am poor and needy,



and my heart is wounded within me.

23

I am gone like the shadow when it declineth:



I am tossed up and down as the locust.

24

My knees are weak through fasting;



and my flesh faileth of fatness.

25

I became also a reproach unto them:



when they looked upon me they shook their heads. Mt. 27.39 · Mk. 15.29

26

Help me, O LORD my God:



O save me according to thy mercy:

27

that they may know that this is thy hand;



that thou, LORD, hast done it.

28

Let them curse, but bless thou:



when they arise, let them be ashamed;

but let thy servant rejoice.

29

Let mine adversaries be clothed with shame;



and let them cover themselves with their own confusion, as with a mantle.

30

I will greatly praise the LORD with my mouth;



yea, I will praise him among the multitude.

31

For he shall stand at the right hand of the poor,



to save him from those that condemn his soul.

kat. I followed your link and the site came up but Page Not Found

I`m perplexed by both your and Pids posts as something seems amiss.

Bears/Pid, is your reference King James version?

Ok. Bears version is the KJV and the partial Prayer in email is New American Standard Bible (NASB).
Now it makes more sense.
I`m trying to find another source for the email story

Found it in The Huffington Post.

From what I read, he is an unsavory fella and dumb as a box of rocks IF he actually sent these emails..

It does say more about his character than his pubby affiliation.

quote:
While O'Neal isn't apologizing, outrage over the content of his email has sparked a petition drive calling for his immediate resignation.

O'Neal's email supporting Psalm 109.8 wasn't the only email that emerged to stir controversy either. Earlier this month, O'Neal apologized for an email, also forwarded to his GOP colleagues, that referred to First Lady Michelle Obama as Mrs. YoMama and compared her to the Grinch.

FYI not MY paraphrasing. it did occur that this might be someone getting a screwed up version of what he said, but they ALSO quoted HIS email.

i don't care if he is republican, democrat or martian, he is in office and since this is not his first case of outright oral garbage spewing, that position should be up for investigation. he is one sick PERSON no matter his political persuasion.

IMO

"O’Neal has been under fire for forwarding two emails to fellow House Republicans."

"The first one refers to a bumper sticker that reads “Pray for Obama. Psalm 109:8"

"The second email refers to first lady Michelle Obama as “Mrs. YoMama” and compares a photograph of her to a picture of the Grinch. After his office initially defended the second email, O’Neal later issued an apology, saying he forwarded that email “too quickly missing the text included in the body of the email.”
