Poor Caroline

You have the media crying foul over the treatment given to Princess Caroline by Governor Patterson.

What a crock! Not once did I see or hear of this kind of outcry over Gov. Sarah Palin. In fact it was just the opposite. Everyone was ready to hang and burn Sarah Palin much like a witch in Salem.

Yet what the media is failing to realize is that Caroline Kennedy comes from a corrupt family starting way back with old man Joseph Kennedy. Of course we have the blow hard Ted Kennedy who is a disgrace to the human race. They call him the Lion of the Senate yet lions are known to be brave and king's of the jungle. Unless of course they are comparing Ted Kennedy to the lion in the Wizard of Oz. Except this cowardly lion never finds his courage.

I for one am cheering the decision of Governor Patterson for showing true grit and courage in putting the Kennedys in their place.

Camelot died in 1963 and not even Carolyn can resurrect it.

Un-American To Vote

If you cast your vote it is very un-American. At least it is according to Tom Hanks. He recently beat up on Mormons because they supported and voted against the Proposition in California which would have allowed gay marriage.

Granted, he did apologize for saying what he did but none the less he said it therefore this is something he must of truly felt in his heart and mind.

I just find it amazing that anyone would even think or say such a thing. It just seems that the liberal elite consider it un-American only if the vote does not go their way. Look at all the hell and disrespect they showed George W. Bush when he was elected and re-elected.

I did not vote for President Obama but in no way do I feel that those that did are un-American. This is the way our political system should function. The people spoke and he is now our President and I will always pray for him.

What is un-American is when the people have spoken and politicians and activist groups go to court to over turn the will of the people.

The Arrogance of Obama

Our newly elected president made the following statement yesterday when meeting with Republican leaders, "You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done." He also made the following statement, "if we don't get this done we (the democrats) could lose seats and I could lose re-election. But we can't let people like Rush Limbaugh stall this. That's how things don't get done in this town."

First of all, it is extremely dangerous for any president, black, white, brown, yellow or red to make this kind of statement. Is this man threatened by the likes of Rush and his audience or any dissenting opinion? This is the type of garbage coming from a Marxist or Communist regime. Is Obama's Marxist and Communist colors beginning to show? After all he was influenced by the likes Saul Alinksy, Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Wright and others.

Secondly, Obama hasn't even been in the White House a week and he is thinking about getting re=elected. Will he do to America what he did to the people of Illinois when he was their Senator? To refresh your memories, he started running for President after serving only two years in the Senate. So does this mean he is going to neglect us only after 4 days and start running for re-election? Seems like it.

I stand by what my gut has been telling me, Barack Obama is in this for himself and his whole political career has been about himself. SHEER ARROGANCE!

We need to stand up and start flooding the Washington phone lines and voicing our concerns. I have already made 5 calls and I would encourage everyone who feels this country is headed in the wrong direction under this man to do the same. We still have a voice and can make a difference. It will never do us any good to just sit back and complain, we need to take action and be pro-active. The same way Barack Obama mobilized his followers we can do the same but we must do it!

If we do not take action future generations will have to pay for our apathy and laziness!

Absolutely Ignorant Government (A.I.G.)

Why is it that the government, our Absolutely Ignorant Government (A.I.G.) loves rewarding failures and punishing success?

Close to 1 trillion dollars was needed to help our ailing economy or else we would just collapse into ruins. We needed to help our housing industry because Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae needed more money to pay their top excutives and donate to political godfathers. We needed to help that hugh insurance giant, AIG from collapse because they needed more money to have their lavish and secretive parties. We need to shore up the banking industry because of their crazy sub prime lending practices and outlandish salaries to non-deserving executives. Then states like California and New York have their hands out for their piece of the bailout pie because of their out of control spending. Now, it is the US Automakers who are wanting money to help them out of their financial mess.

What do each of these have in common? They are all failures, thanks to their poor management, out of control spending, outrageous salaries, and outlandish greed. Yet our Adsolutely Ignorant Government (A.I.G.) is willing to use our money that we entrust to them to bail these idiots out. Then they have the nerve to tell us that "WE" will be the owners of these failing entities. I have news for our Absolutely Ignorant Government (A.I.G.), I for one do not want anything to do with these LOSERS. But our Absolutely Ignorant Government (A.I.G.) think they know better and are ready to do whatever they can to prop up these failures.

However on the other hand our Absolutely Ignorant Government (A.I.G.) were ready to punish companies like Walmart, Microsoft, AT&T and Exxon for being successful. These companies were called "greedy" because they were profitable, (imagine that!). Now our Absolutely Ignorant Government (A.I.G) would like to punish those people who have the nerve of making over $250k per year by taking some of their hard earned money away and rewarding those who are have done nothing at all to deserve it.

Do we have an Absolutely Ignorant Government (A.I.G.) or is it just me?

Pray for our President-Elect

While I did not vote for Senator Obama for President, he is my President and I will always respect the office that he will hold. I will afford him more respect than my fellow Americans on the other side of the aisle have given our current President.

President-Elect Obama will need all of our prayers. He has come to us with youth and inexperience and the task ahead of him will be overwhelming. Our prayer should be that God will guide him in the selection of his cabinet and others who will serve under his administration.

We are blessed for living in this great country and must remember that those blessings come from our Creator and not from our government. Let's stand together and hold our leaders accountable for their actions.

God bless our country and President-elect as well as his family. May they be kept safe and may God touch and guide their lives.

Racism Is Dead in America!

Last night the American people overwhelmingly elected Senator Barack Obama to the presidency of the United States of America. Congratulations of course are in order for this great achievement and for becoming the first Black American elected to this high office.

The people of this great country have shown the world that we are not a racist country, especially since Mr. Obama carried over 52% of the vote with 63 million people casting their votes for him. This of course was done with the help of millions of whites, latinos, Asians, Jews, blacks and many more.

Now all the white guilt, black guilt, latino guilt, jewish guilt and any other guilts can be erased and no one should ever have to apologize to the blacks of America for whatever we were supposed to feel guilty about in the first place.

I am sure that Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, Louis Farrakan, NAACP and other shake down artists will have to look for another source of income. Racism is over in America and everyone will be on equal footing, thanks to this historic election.

We should never have to hear the hate from the mouths of Oprah, Jeremiah Wright, Father Pfleger and the Hollywood elite again. For racism is dead in America!

However, will it be racist if we question the policies of our new president? Will it be racist if we do not support his stance on abortion? Will it be racist if we do not agree with his position on defense, taxes and spreading the wealth around? Will we be considered a racist if we oppose his nominations to the Supreme Court and other judicial appointments?

I certainly hope not because it is just so awesome that racism is dead!

What Is Happrning To Our Country?

Recently I posted "Abortion a Matter of Life and Death" and I had someone who responded to me via email the following:

"People who are pro-choice (including me) don't consider embryos to be "innocent lives." Before viability I consider it to be a tissue in the mother's body, hence one she can choose to remove if she wishes.
Obviously you disagree, but from that perspective abortion is not murder any more than having a mole removed would be
."

Now, can you imagine anyone comparing the killing of a living being to the removal of a mole?

This is so ignorant and I wrote her back telling her so, in addition to sending her the video I had posted on an earlier post.

Then someone wrote me the following:

"While we are pro life we do not think that this video is appropriate due to the fact that it is a shock video and is not recommended for viewing."

My goodness, I think America has its value system all screwed up!

  • It is OK for first graders to witness a "lesbian wedding"
  • It is OK to teach Johnny about having two daddies and Heather having two mommys .
  • It is OK to teach our first graders about the use of condoms.
  • It is not OK for a coach who  wants to say a prayer before a game.
  • It is OK to keep prayer out of our schools.
  • It is OK to want to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance or off our currency because it may offend someone.

But it is not OK to show a video that shows the taking of an innocent life because it is shocking. Hell yes it is shocking ! What else would you call the murder of sweet innocent babies who cannot defend themselves?

 

It is OK to compare the removal of a mole to an abortion and that is not shocking? Give me a break! That is just total ignorance! It is "political correctness" at its worst.

 

Dear God ,what is becoming of our country? Dear country, what is becoming of our values?

 

To date I have had 37 emails supporting the video and in support of life and only one email saying that she had no idea when life began but admitted she was an agnostic. What would you expect from someone who has no clue if there is a God or not?

 

Pray for our country, we need an awakening!

Welcome Back Homeboy

On October 17, 2002 on San Diego's 760 KTMB Harry Belefonte slammed then Secretary of State, Colin Powell as a sellout to the black race. He compared Powell to a planatation slave moving into his master's house.

Peter Jennings of ABC News suggested that maybe Colin Powell was a GOP Uncle Tom and asked him, "Do you ever feel that maybe this is the professional wing of the party trying to use you?"

TransAfrica founder, Randall Robinson said of Powell that he is, "the most powerful and damaging black to rise to influence in the world in my lifetime."

In The Black Commentator, Powell was called the "The Gangster of Haiti."

It just boggles my mind that if you are black and conservative then the Liberal Press and their political allies think that you are an Uncle Tom or as they called Condaleeza Rice, Aunt Jemimah.

Julian Bond, President of the NAACP went so far to say about Ms. Rice that she was "the purest expression of a race traitor. No polite description is possible."

Look how they have trashed Justice Clarence Thomas.

But now that General Powell has endorsed Senator Obama, he has suddenly become the darling of the Democrats. He is no longer an Uncle Tom, he is no longer the "house ni**er", he is now
part of the messiah's flock and all his sins are forgiven him. What double standards!

Welcome back Homeboy, you were lost but now you are found!

This Should Concern You!

Dear Friends,
While doing some surfing on the internet I came across the following items and I invite you to read them carefully.This should really scare you and I ask that you pass this along to your friends and family. We are coming to a cross roads in our country and from here to the day we choose our next President we all need to be in prayer.
History has a way of repeating itself and we must constantly seek out our Heavenly Father's guidance as we vote. GOD BLESS YOU!
************************************************
HE IS VICTORY

"But there is one man who cannot lay down his burden, who carries a hundred times more than anyone else, who does not weaken or falter, who does not confuse the forest with the trees. He is a granite wall we need not worry about, who is everything that is good and brave and true in us, who warms us with the glow of his great soul:
Come what may: He is victory!"

Background: This article comes from Das Schwarze Korps, the weekly published by the SS. It appeared on the occasion of Hitler's birthday in 1944. Hitler is presented as a superhuman figure, almost a god, though the article says he is not one... The best source in English on the Schwarze Korps is William L. Combs, The Voice of the SS: A History of the SS Journal 'Das Schwarze Korps' (New York: Peter Lang, 1986).
The Source: "Er ist der Sieg," Das Schwarze Korps, 20 April 1944, pp. 1-2.
 
What has the main stream media been writing about Obama? Their messiah.
*********************************
Socialism means: "The common good before the individual good.
"Socialism means: "Think not of yourself, but of the whole, of the people and the state.
"Socialism means: "Not the same for everyone, but to each his own."

Background: This is translation of a thin Nazi book titled "Faith and Action." It is rather a "Book of Virtues," discussing the traits Nazi youth were to have. A Nazi era review noted that this was a good book for those who wished to give their children something better than "the Jewish myths of the Old Testament." The author was in charge of military education for the Hitler Youth. It was published by the party's own publishing house. First published in 1938, I am using a 1943 printing that brought the print total to 150,000.

How about the re-distribution of wealth like Obama would love to do.
************************************

Addressing a large crowd behind a podium Feb. 24 with a Nation of Islam Saviour's Day 2008 sign, Farrakhan proclaims,
"You are the instruments that God is going to use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barrack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that they didn't care anything about. That's a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking."
"Brothers and sisters," Farrakhan said, "Barack Obama to me, is a herald of the Messiah. Barack Obama is like the trumpet that alerts you something new, something better is on the way."

I Will Follow Him": Obama As My Personal Jesus
by Maggie Mertens, Associate Editor, The Student Press
Massachusetts' State College
I found my miracle. Stumbling through my hopeless world, afraid to turn to anyone with my political questions of morality, my concerns about the afterlife of the country I called home, a voice spoke to me. Barack Obama bore to me his testimony in 2004 at the Democratic National Convention, a testimony that included believing in concepts as simple and wholesome as the Constitution; a belief the current administration had done away with entirely. I was 17 and my antipathy for politicians was already in place before I had even reached the age to legally vote for one. He, though, seemed different. I was intrigued. I would follow him. I believed however, that my discipleship would lead me on a much longer path to political change than was true. He was much too young, not white enough, not rich enough, not jaded - the country certainly wasn't ready for this, maybe in 12 or 16 years he would be able to run in the Democratic primary, I thought.
My interest was piqued, but the dark time lived on until my faith in others was renewed on Jan. 4 in the Iowa state primary. Obama had beat out squeaky clean southern boy John Edwards and former first lady and next in the line of political succession Hillary Clinton. I was in shock. And then I came to Jesus/Obama.
Others too, had seen him as a shining light, heard that mythical voice boom out over the mountaintops; people were wearing the t-shirt because they would rather wear something representing a politician than a pop star. People everywhere, young and old, were caring again. So what's the problem here?I've officially been saved, and soon, whether they like it or not, the rest of the country will be too. I will follow him, all the way to the White House, and I'll be standing there in our nation's capital in January 2009, when Barack Obama is inaugurated as the 44th president of the United States of America.
In the name of Obama, Amen.

Why Dream?

People have come to America from the four corners of the earth to pursue the great American dream. Many have come with nothing in their pockets and with only the clothes on their backs. Many have made it and many have not.

Yet this is the question I have for everyone. What is the purpose of pursuing the American dream only to wake up to a nightmare?

Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher (aka: Joe the Plumber) has a dream, he wants a slice of the American pie. He wants to own a business but now it seems that his dream is becoming a nightmare. Thanks to the main stream media.

The problem the MSM has with Joe the Plumber is that they realize he has more in common with Main Stream America and he has connected more to them than they have. In fact they are finding out that he has more in common with main street than Barrack the Elitist. They resent the very fact that a common man caught their messiah off guard and made him expose his socialist self.

Now the media is saying that Joe the Plumber doesn't really matter and hasn't made much of an impact and is just passing through and will soon be forgotten. If this is true then why are they investing so much time, money and resources to discredit and destroy the man making him another victim of "liberal thugocracy"?

Will that happen to you or to me? I have a dream and I just hope that I do not wake up to the nightmare of an abomination of an Obamanation!

God bless you and God bless America!

Damn That Plumber!

As the election draws to a close and we are about to elect a new president I was just thinking of the part that the media has played in this campaign. Never have I seen the main stream media fall off their wagon and show their bias towards one candidate as they have done for Barrack Obama.

I remember when all the rage was about Hillary Clinton. She was the one who was supposed to be crowned president. She was the media darling and all the anchors were supposed to be her lap dogs. She honestly believed that it was all hers and for all intent and purposes it should have been.

But then a funny thing happened on the way to her coronation , a young man came out of nowhere to screw up her plans. Granted this young man had hardly any experience and his resume was as thin as a paper towel but the media fell in love with him and all of a sudden they told Hillary, Wham, Bam, no thank you mam, we now have a new man. Oh and by the way have we told you he has a funny name, he doesn't look like any of the other presidents on the dollar bill and by the way, guess what? "What?" asked Hillary. He is black!

Can you just imagine how Hillary felt being that she had just been kicked under bus by the very media that was going to take her all the way to the White House.

Now comes Joe the Plumber. Here is a man who is asking Barrack Obama about his tax plan and Obama tells him about his plan of spreading the wealth. Well it seems that this has caused quite a firestorm with small business men and women all over the U.S. and many Americans are beginning to raise some eyebrows about this "wealth re-distribution". The polls start to tighten and all of a sudden it is not the run away election they planned. Damn that Plumber! What is he doing clogging our pipes? So here comes the main stream media to Obama's defense and are now attempting to do what they do best, CHARACTER ASSASSINATION.

They have tried to dig up every piece of dirt on this man just like they tried to do with Sarah Palin. Yet, where were they with Rezko, Ayers, Wright , Odinga, Davis the communist and a host of other questionable characters who Obama has associated with? I tell you where they were, they were MISSING IN ACTION!

Why do you suppose this is happening? Could it be that the media wants to ease their guilt by helping the first black man to become president? I for one believe that it is media guilt because he certainly does not have the experience to lead this great country. We tried that once with a Peanut Farmer and are still suffering from his ignorance.

It is now time for us to turn the tables, kick the Main Street Media under the bus and show them who really is in charge. Do not let them dictate to us who would be best for us, instead let's tell them that they no longer matter and that we as intelligent Americans can make up our own minds and they are no longer needed.

We have so much to lose and everything to gain by rejecting the Main Stream Press and their messiah!

The Silent Scream

"Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you." Jeremiah 1:5
***********************************************
As of the time that I am writing this, here are two statistics that i would like to share with you:
  • The number of babies surgically aborted in the U.S. since Roe v Wade in 1973 is 50,491,239
  • The number of babies surgically aborted in the world since Roe v Wade in 1973 is 1,444,198,300.

SOURCE: National Right to Life Committe and Human Life International

****************************************

In this presidential campaign we have heard very little about the murder of innocent and defenseless children. Yet if you look at the above numbers it is just staggering . Who will be watching out for them in this election ?

We have a choice to make between a candidate who is Pro-Life and another who has no clue when life begins. We have a candidate who adopts children from another country and another who thinks that if his daughters were to make a mistake he would not want them ".....to be punished with a baby" and therefore supports late term abortions. I for one have never known a baby to be punishment.

The most important criteria for me in voting for any elected official is what their position on abortion is and therefore I cannot in any way shape or form vote for Barrack Obama. I cannot condone anyone who would willingly provide funding for the murder of innocents. Regardless of what the law of the land is, God's law is above all laws. We need someone who will fight for the children who rest in their mother's womb.

I posted a video yesterday and today I post another which is even more graphic. I do so to drive home the point of how important it is to see that we elect a Pro Life president.

Take A Deep Breath!

With a little over three weeks before the elections, the race for President and Vice President are getting intense. The polls along with the media spin are actually making our heads spin. So it is time now for all of us to take a step back and take a very deep breath and do some analysis of own.

It is amazing that with the tools we have at our disposable that we are still very much influenced by the media, political pundits from both sides and all these crazy poll numbers that change every single day. In fact I was reading a Zogby poll just the other day, in one article it had Obama up by 4 points and in another article on the same web page on the same day he was up by 6 points done by the same pollsters! So the question we are faced with is, who are we to believe?

That is why I am saying that we need to take a deep breath and start doing some research for ourselves. Do not believe all that you read in the news media or hear on television, all it will do is add to the confusion. Taking it one step further, do not believe all that you hear from the candidate's mouth. Instead base you decision on who to vote for on their past records. The past reveals a lot about a person and what they will do in the future. This not only applies to the race for the presidency but also applies to our local and statewide races. Observe what our current leaders are doing, then decide what action you must take.

We must stop relying on what we hear or read and make an informed decision on what our own research tells us. Then we must make the decision based on what we are comfortable with and realize whatever the outcome, we will be stuck with our decisions.

Now, regardless of who wins we are instructed in I Timothy 2:1-4 that we are to pray for our leaders. We are to lift them up in prayer. We also need to pray for our country as we can see how it is being torn apart by the divisions of our people and our leaders.

Socialism - How it is Happening

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But under the name of Liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day America will be a socialist nation without knowing how it happened.”
Norman Thomas, Socialist Party presidential candidate in 1940, 1944 and 1948.


****************************************


Today most Americans are fuming over the idea that this great country, The United States of America is on the verge of becoming a socialist state and they are raging mad at those they feel are responsible for leading us in that direction. Yet what they fail to realize is that this country has continually inched in that direction over the past 60 - 70 years. Whose fault is it? It is our fault for taking the liberties we have enjoyed for granted and assuming that the USA would never embrace socialism.

We became lazy! We gave self serving politicians permission to take advantage of us! We believed them when they said they had our best interest at hand. We believed them when they said they would look out for us. And now, we are upset? Wake UP America! We have no one to blame but ourselves!

However as Americans who love this country we can still do something about it. We can wake up from our sleep and take back this great country by getting involved in our democracy. Do not allow all the sacrifices made for this country by brave men and women be made in vain.
We each have one vote and while it may not seem like much it still can make the difference. Let's put men and women in Washington, in our state capitols and in our city governments who will represent us, the citizens.
 
God Bless You and God Bless America!
