Christian TV host asks God for ‘military takeover’ of Obama’s presidency

A Christian TV host this week called on God to consider a “military takeover” of President Barack Obama’s government because it could be the only way to save the country from tyranny.

On his Monday Internet broadcast, Morning Star TV’s Rick Joyner predicted that democracy was “doomed” unless the Lord imposed martial law.

“The balance of powers in the legislative and judicial branches were supposed to balance and keep in check, hold in check, the potential tyranny from the executive branch overstepping their bounds,” Joyner explained. “The people are not always right, it depends on what people they are. And another thing the founders warned about is this thing will only work for a moral and a religious people. You remove morality, you remove the religious influence, and it cannot work.”

“We’re headed for serious tyranny, a terrible tyranny right now,” he continued. “But guess what? The kingdom is coming, the Kingdom of God is coming. And America is not the Kingdom of God. I think we have been used in some wonderful and powerful ways by God, we’ve been one of the most generous nations in history. We’ve done so much good.”

“That’s why I appeal to the Lord: Don’t let us be totally destroyed, please raise up those who will save us. And as I’ve been telling friends for a long time, no election is going to get the right person in there because the system is so broken.”

Joyner added that the “only hope is a military takeover, martial law.”

“And that the most crucial element of that is who to the martial [sic] is going to be,” he said. “I believe there are noble leaders in our military that love the republic and love everything we stand for. And they could seize the government.”

Rick Perry Says His Wife Misspoke on Abortion

ANITA PERRY CALLED IT A WOMAN'S CHOICE

(NEWSER) – Texas first lady Anita Perry seemed to make the point pretty clearly last week that she believes women have the right to choose an abortion. But today, her husband said she misspoke, reports Bloomberg. “From time to time we’ll stick the wrong word in the wrong place, and you pounce upon it,” Texas Gov. Rick Perry told reporters while campaigning for GOP gubernatorial candidate Steve Lonegan in New Jersey.

The original statement from his wife at the Texas Tribune Festival, as quoted by the Washington Post: "I see it as a woman's right. If they want to do that, that is their decision. They have to live with that decision." Pressed to clarify, she said, "Yeah, that could be a woman's right. Just like it's a man right if he wants to have some kind of procedure. But I don't agree with it and that's not my view." The issue of abortion has become much bigger in the state, of course, now that pro-choice advocate Wendy Davis has decided to run for governor. In fact, prior to Rick Perry's statement today, a Slate blogger thought his wife's comments might help him if he chooses to run for president again.
