Fox entertainment network is holding fast to some strict guidelines when it comes to vying for a coveted Super Bowl advertising slot. As we reported, an advertisement for an infidelity dating service was denied air time for failing to live up to the network’s “standards and practices’ regulations.
Now, another ad — this one for JesusHatesObama.com, a conservative comedy website — has been rejected. According to HuffPo, the network said the ad was unacceptable.

Posted on January 21, 2011 at 8:37amThere is nothing wrong with President Obama searching out a Church. The Holy Bible demands for one to examine themselves, and to search out their own salvation very carefully. But, I would leave a sanctuary immediately if the pastor used the Lord’s Name in vain.

Posted on January 21, 2011 at 8:15amOk That was funny. But Jesus Loved all sinners no matter how bad they were, including Obama. As long as we accept Jesus into our lives,we will always have his love. I do not seriously know if Obama except Jesus And His Teaching….. If he did he would not be about socialism and collective salvation.

Posted on January 21, 2011 at 5:33pmIf you read the last testament, you will find that God smite a lot of people becaue they angered him. Soddem andn Gamorah, Noah and the great flood, Jonah and the whale, Read the book of Job, God made a bet with Satan over the faith of Job. God and Jesus Taught individual Salvation. Not Collective. And you can go to heaven even if you are rich. But you must except god and Jesus, must live by the commandments,help your nieghbors(READ THE GOOD SAMARITIAN STORY THAT JESUS TELLS). The country started off poor if you know history. Through capitalism and faith in god we prosper. Now sincete progressive showed up when Teddy Rossevelte came into Office we have preverted our ways.

Making a whip of cords, he drove all of them out of the temple, both the sheep and the cattle. He also poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. He told those who were selling the doves, “Take these things out of here! Stop making my Father’s house a marketplace!”
