Judge Compares Blacks To Dogs

Montana's chief federal judge admitted on Wednesday that he forwarded an email comparing African-Americans to dogs and implying that President Barack Obama's mother had sex with animals.

Richard Cebull's email, obtained by the Great Falls Tribune, reads: "Normally I don't send or forward a lot of these, but even by my standards, it was a bit touching. I want all of my friends to feel what I felt when I read this. Hope it touches your heart like it did mine."A joke then follows: "A little boy said to his mother; 'Mommy, how come I'm black and you're white?' His mother replied, 'Don't even go there Barack! From what I can remember about that party, you're lucky you don't bark!'"

Cebull forwarded the offensive email from his official court account to six "old buddies," who then forwarded to others. In an interview with the Tribune, Cebull maintained he did not send the email because it was racist, but because it was 'anti-Obama.'"

The only reason I can explain it to you is I am not a fan of our president, but this goes beyond not being a fan," Cebull said. He agreed the email was racist, but said he personally was not. "This is a private thing that was, to say the least, very poor judgment on my part," he said.

Personally, I'm not sure how a person can promote something that they are not. The bible says in Luke 6:45 "The good person out of the good treasure of his heart produces good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure produces evil, for out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks." So here is my question...how (if in fact it is possible) can you promote something you do not support. That's like an atheist preaching a revival or an abortion clinic turning people away because they want to abort a child.

In 1 Timothy 2:1-2 it tells us that we should pray for those who are in authority or leadership positions. This is a direct example of why. If people like this, with this power that he obviously have, can make decisions based on skin color...imagine what he has already done under "his" leadership.

Instead of raising our voices in anger to speak ill about Richard, lets just pray for him and that the power that he has doesn't cause anyone to be unlawfully "judged" by their skin tone.
