A Mind is a Terrible Thing to Waste............

While watching the latest installment of Obama’s continuing campaign (otherwise titled the ‘State of the Union’ address), it dawned on me that we could very well be dealing with an idiot. At times I’ve thought…”narcissist”……..other times maybe “ideologue”….most of the time I do believe he is a progressive socialist…..but this is the dawning of a realization that all of the money in the world, spent on what many consider a great education, does not buy common sense. Glenn Beck made the comical remark that it was hard to watch this address without blood spurting from his eyeballs, and I have to agree. For any of us that like to pursue wisdom, apply logic, and expect that our elected leaders attempt to do the same, it was surreal at best listening to a speech full of outright lies, insults, illogical conclusions, blame, bad math, and all the while watching the ‘pop goes the weasel’ action performed by Ms. Pelosi. How very distracting that was!


Mr. Obama called for an end to bi-partisanship....proof that his logic is skewed. The Republicans are not in any position to have been a roadblock. They didn’t have enough seats in the house or the senate to have mattered. The Democrats have held a super majority for this last year and, but for their own problems within, could have ran away with whatever they desired and the Republicans didn’t have enough power to stop them. I’m sure that’s why none were included in any meetings, committees, or discussions, and I’m pretty sure that’s why they weren’t asked for input. The votes that were bought, won with bribery, or extorted were all within the Democratic party. No Republicans had to be bribed and none earned any perks. In fact, none were considered important enough to extort. Mr. Obama, it seems, can’t lead his own party.

Mr. Obama wants to double our exports……?!?!?!? What are we able to sell more cheaply than anyone else? With our labor unions and regulations, we can’t even outsell other countries here in our own country. Then we’re going to double that. What will others want two of that we make? I think I heard him imply that we’re going to be the “king of solar panels”. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that those things can be made for next to nothing in a third world country.

Like a kid with his hand caught in the cookie jar, the finger pointing and blame never stops. “He started it”…”It’s his fault”….Well, he needs to wise up. This last year was HIM. He wanted the job and the bottom fell out on his watch because of his focus on his greatness and the extreme left’s progressive thirst. Our previous administration spent less money in 8 years of office than has been spent in this last ONE. The owners of the big companies that he despises are job creating AMERICANS. The private sector is what drives our capitalist nation and took it to super power status. When people are free to think, invent, and try to make a profit, we all benefit. Big business means jobs. The so-called ‘stimulus’ was an epic fail, and renaming it a “jobs program” isn’t fooling anyone.

Stating that the people of Massachusetts voted for Scott Brown for the same reasons they voted for him lets me know that there has to be something fundamentally wrong with his brain, unless he’s in the biggest state of denial on record. THE PEOPLE, Mr. Resident, are fed up! Senator Brown ran as the “anti health-care takeover vote”! Most Americans are not in favor of living in a socialist state and have determined that they will not give up their freedom to your vanities.

It takes a bully, a fool, or someone mentally ill to publicly insult the SUPREME COURT JUSTICES OF THE UNITED STATES! Which one is he I wonder? It is obvious that he believes he is above protocol, the law, and the people of this country…..that he is immune to sticking to truth….and that he thinks very little of the American people.

The only positive rational explanation for his 70 minutes of “lies and lunacy” is that he is mentally impaired. That would also explain why his math doesn’t work, his logic is backwards, he can’t find his birth certificate, he’s afraid of a news network, he thinks terrorists are citizens and citizens are terrorists, he thinks that the people of this country are too simple minded to consult, and that it is ‘ok’ to apologize for our nation’s success, bow to our enemies, and to change our judicial system to suit his agenda.

I pray that this will be the year that he will learn that it is his job is TO SERVE THE PEOPLE and answer to their wishes, while protecting the security and constitution of this great and Godly nation. The November elections will be a time for the people to level the playing field in congress, and if the law doesn’t find Mr. Obama to be an illegitimate officeholder before 2012 and remove him, then that will be when the people will have to correct the huge mistake they made in electing what has been nothing but a daily embarrassment to this nation…..and pray that his damage can be undone.

A Hot Shower Will Help..........

To Watch or Not to Watch?..............
Wednesday night brings another “State of the Union” address from a president that has addressed the public more than 400 times in his first 365 days……52 of his speeches have pertained to his government takeover of health care. He has given 158 interviews and 42 press conferences. (Twice as many as George Bush gave in his first year of office.)
This begs the question….. With all of his communication, why is he still so confused as to why he’s the least popular president in modern history? I am sick to death of hearing his voice as he continuously campaigns rather than governs. There’s an old saying that goes like this… “You can’t listen when your lips are constantly moving”.
The American people have been giving voice and visible dissent to his progressive government agenda for over a year and especially those that were fooled into voting for a socialist bent on destroying and dismantling our republic, and Barak Hussein Obama has arrogantly refused to believe that he is no longer the celebrity darling that he was over a year ago.
While I would like to see which Obama will be showing up this time…..a superb actor portraying a change of heart, or the arrogant narcissist who thinks he has come to save us from our freedoms….I truly have a negative physical reaction every time I hear his voice. The pauses……..the obvious dependence on the teleprompter for script written by someone else….the lack of morality and conviction in his purpose….the absence of passion for his country… It gives me heartburn, headaches, horrible frustration, and I always feel the need to bathe afterwards.
So…… since knowledge is power, and forewarned is forearmed, I suppose it is in the best interest of all Americans that are working hard to keep America the home of the free to watch what “the resident” has up next in his arsenal . Providing I medicate beforehand with aspirin, have Tums on standby, and can get to a hot shower afterwards, all will be well………

How "Lo" Will They Go?

This video of Jennifer Lopez's appearance earlier this week on the "Lopez (as in George Lopez) Tonight" show has sparked quite a bit of conversation in light of the current political climate. Women across America have taken great offense at her disparaging of Sarah Palin. The comments that were posted underneath this video on the YouTube site tell the story of an America that is realizing celebrity elitists see themselves as our political examples.
Never before in history have I personally noticed so many, many celebrities abandon their stage to become so vocal in this dangerous progressive movement. Madonna's vulgarities on her tour concerning Governor Palin were shocking. Sharon Osbourne (is she an American anyway?) was so hateful in her speech about her that I have not watched "Ellen" since as it was on her show and Ellen laughed, rather than defend this fellow female American. Now we can add J-Lo to the list with Beyonce, Streisand, Winger, Behar, Oprah, and many other women in our country that have disappointed their gender by their radical, vocal lack of support. We may not all agree politically, but we share deeper bonds that should prevail: motherhood, the love and care of husbands, brothers, mothers, fathers, and sisters, and all of the unique things that bind women and make it necessary for us to be the absolute last to malign, mock, and tear at each other. Combined with the list of male celebrities such as George Clooney, Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, (and I guess Michael Moore considers himself some sort of celebrity), and many, many more, we have a group of actors and actresses that see themselves as more intelligent and more knowledgeable about what normal Americans need than we ourselves do! I'm sure, like me, you're aware that most of our current celebrity population consists of high school dropouts, very few college attendees, and carries a high rate of addiction and rehabilitation. Many have served time in prison. My conclusion is that these people see some sort of validation for their inadequacies in aligning themselves with someone whose ideas are as 'out there' as their own, and that could never possibly make them feel inferior or less intelligent because their most recent choice of presidential candidate has yet to even prove himself legitimate. As I decided earlier and have indicated in my previous blog "Political Boycott", I am making new decisions about where I spend my money. I will no longer be spending money knowingly on anyone or anything that stands ready to disassemble my country or it's values. I will no longer be buying progressive magazines that have sold their purpose to progressives. I will no longer be seeing movies or buying music produced by these anti-Americans, and I will be thinking and paying much more attention to what I watch, where I make purchases, and what organizations I support. Money doesn't buy happiness.....that comes from building a peaceful relationship through Jesus Christ....but money gives us the power of choice here and allows us to exercise our beliefs in a very powerful way. We can make a difference. Join me in making sure 'evil' doesn't profit from your God-given resources.

Revolution Begins!

Last night in Massachusetts, another revolution began........with another shot heard around the world. Senator Scott Brown won the senate seat held by the late Ted Kennedy, in a 'blue state'......a state that has been predominantly Democratic for over 40 years.
This is not a Republican victory, but a PEOPLE'S VICTORY! This candidate rose to popularity in the last months due to the push of the Tea Party movement and a growing independent party that is fed up with government as usual, a president that lies, and progressives that are bent on destroying our republic.
In opposition to name calling by the progressives in power, and against an elitist media machine, the spirit of the American people is awakened and galvanized and I, as are many, am praying that God will once again give us the strength to win back our nation, rid it of the progressive parasites that have eaten away the democratic party, and parts of the republican party, and be glorified once again in this America...one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
Today, a group called "Obama Release Your Records" has initiated a barrage against the White House, encouraging calls, faxes, emails, and postings on their FaceBook page with messages demanding that Obama release his records and prove his legitimacy to be president. We are asking that he stop using our tax money to pay hordes of attorneys to hide these legal documents that the rest of us are liable to produce for everything from travel and driver's licenses to school enrollment and insurance sign ups. A petition for suit has been filed with the Supreme Court and we will wait to see how this unfolds.
BUT don't stop working, praying,and hoping...........this is just the beginning! There is still much to be done between now and November when the people take back Congress. Congress began taking the power from the people (beginning in the early 1900's) and that is not as our constitution intended it to be. We have to continue the momentum as patriots to insure that the future generations of Americans remain free and live in liberty so don't stop now!! The 2010 Revolution has just begun...............

Liar, Liar, Pants on Fire!

Senator Joe Wilson from S.C. took quite a lot of criticism for stating the obvious in a televised address by Obama, and was scolded for the manner in which he interrupted the speech with a shouted "YOU LIE!" Many news pundits, and certainly a gaggle of liberals, loved taking him to task over his bad manners, but there wasn't a lot of emphasis placed on the SUBSTANCE of what Senator Wilson said.......Obama has lied and contiues to lie. I, for one, can certainly understand the frustration that forced that reaction and I'm glad to see many, many more Americans awakening to the realization that they (I say "they" because I knew better than to vote for this candidate) were sold a bill of goods by a habitual liar that will do and say whatever needs to be said to accomplish his goals and agenda.

Quoting candidate Obama.....To achieve health care reform, "I'm going to have all the negotiations around a big table. We'll have doctors and nurses and hospital administrators. Insurance companies, drug companies -- they'll get a seat at the table, they just won't be able to buy every chair. But what we will do is, we'll have the negotiations televised on C-SPAN, so that people can see who is making arguments on behalf of their constituents, and who are making arguments on behalf of the drug companies or the insurance companies. And so, that approach, I think is what is going to allow people to stay involved in this process."

"Will maintain fiscal responsibility and prevent any increase in the deficit by offsetting cuts and revenue sources in other parts of the government (to pay for a national service plan that will cost about $3.5 billion per year when it is fully implemented). This plan will be paid for in part by cancelling tax provisions that would otherwise help multinational corporations pay less in U.S. taxes starting in 2008 by reallocating tax deductions for interest expenses between income earned in the U.S. and income earned abroad. The rest of the plan will be funded using a small portion of the savings associated with ending the war in Iraq."
Sources: "Helping All Americans Serve Their Country" (Politifact.com).....AGAIN, LIAR

I think the saddest part of this administration is that this president still insists he is doing a better job than the previous one. Denial is his strongest ally. Even his promise to heal the country and work together with all parties to achieve compromise never got off the ground. Each day that he is in office is another day that the American people are angered, offended, cheated, lied to, or betrayed. There has not been one day that has come and gone with no political fiasco or embarrasment. While it is reported that his right to hold office is being legally examined due to the millions of dollars his attorneys have spent avoiding the release of his proper birth certificate and proof of citizenship, he stirs the pot of discontent, division, and racism while resorting to name calling when he's confronted with opposition.

Whether one agrees with an officeholder's political agenda or not.........lying is NOT what we expect or respect in our government officials and from our Commander in Chief.
"A false witness will not go unpunished, and he who pours out lies will perish." Prov. 19:9
Or.....as we learned to say as children....."Liar, Liar, pants on fire"!

Real Hope for Real Change

If you are following the awesome and inspiring election proceedings in Boston this week, this is a "must see" video! For the first time in over 50 years, a Democratic stronghold is in danger, and rightly so!! Republican Steve Brown is fighting for the late Senator Ted Kennedy's seat and people across the nation are fighting along with him. For the first time in my lifetime I am witnessing a NATIONAL bonding with people crossing state lines to become involved in ALL elections that affect their nation, not just their local ones. In order for the American majority to remove the socialists that are dismantling our nation from office, January 19th could be an important step in beginning to get it done. Pray for Mr. Brown. Help if you can by passing along the information, raising awareness so that other voices of support can be heard. Let fellow Americans in Boston know that you are counting on them to get out and vote!! Campaigns and ads take money, so if you can afford to send a small donation, then do that as well. Share this video with others that are fighting this battle and feeling the fatigue. It truly will inspire you to keep pushing for real change, with real hope for our future! May God bless America again.......and may her people arise and praise Him.

Dead Silence

"There is nothing more important in my life than my relationship with God and my faith and in this past year especially -- past year and a half -- I have been so driven to my knees to pray for His guidance, for His wisdom, for His grace and for His Strength. And I'm never going to tell anybody else how to live, I'm never going to preach to anybody else and tell them you must do that. But I sure would like to see more Americans give it a try and seek the guidance that our Founding Fathers sought and were able to [then] craft documents that allowed America to become the greatest, strongest, healthiest, most prosperous nation on earth."
"I believe that there are eternal ramifications based on what we do here."....Sarah Palin in an interview 1/13/10 with Fox's Glenn Beck

I, too, believe that there are eternal ramifications based on what we do here. It is imperative that God's people, and especially those that seem to have taken a vow of apathetic silence, speak up and speak out for truth, liberty, and justice. We WILL be held accountable for our action.....and as importantly, our non-action.
In the book of Ezekiel, God called this prophet to speak of His coming divine judgement on the obstinate and rebellious nation of Israel........"He said, 'Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites, to a rebellious nation that has rebelled against me; they have been in revolt against me to this very day. The people to whom I am sending you are obstinate and stubborn. Say to them, "This is what the Sovereign Lord says", and whether they listen or fail to listen-they will know that a prophet has been among them. And you, son of man, do not be afraid of them or their words. Do not be afraid, though briers and thorns are all around you and you  live among scorpions. Do not be afraid of what they say or terrified by them, though they are a rebellious house. You must speak my words to them, whether they listen or fail to listen, for they are rebellious." Ezekiel 2:3-7
In the book of Esther, it was Esther's action that saved her people according to God's divine plan for her life......"Do not think that because you are in the king's house you alone of all the Jews will escape. For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father's family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this?" Esther 4:13-14
Our history as the people of God is filled and overflowing with our activity and obedience to God's glory.... We must not only believe God's truths, we are required to speak them. "I believed therefore I have spoken" 2 Cor: 4:13. Our words of faith have so much power in this world. In order for God to use our faith and be His hands and feet, we must first move off of our sofas, out of our apathy, and away from the worldly distractions thrown at us for the sole purpose of rendering us ineffective. We are fighting a spiritual battle for the life of our nation and it's purpose to the world as a beacon of Christ and His freedoms. That light is to direct others to the saving truths of God's word and purposes and in our deadly silence as Christians, we are giving up, waving a white flag to evil, and allowing fear, laziness, doubt, ignorance, and apathy to steal truth and salvation and believe this my friends..........there WILL be a price to pay for this deadly silence.
What purpose would God's armor serve if we didn't need to fight? A belt of truth, breastplate of righteousness, shield of faith, helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit isn't needed by a silenced and nonparticipating Christian soldier.
Be strong, be courageous and remember that your God is mighty to save. He is great and awesome and He will sustain you! He has never forsaken those that seek Him. "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9
"Don't be afraid of them. Remember the Lord your God who is great and awesome, and fight for your brothers, your sons, and your daughters, your wives and your homes" Neh. 4:14
Speaking God's truth and standing up for what is right and against what is evil is never easy. But it is our calling to be a light in the darkness, and it is the only hope a lost dying world and a captive nation have.
So, I will continue to pray that more and more of my brothers and sisters in Christ would awaken from their dead silence. Everything we do and everything we don't do will have eternal ramifications as well as serious ones in this time that God has placed us in. If He didn't have a purpose for us now, in this place, and in this time, then He'd take us home. We are not here to be slaves to anyone or anything, including slothfulness, fear, reality t.v., political correctness, or world acceptance.
"The Commission to Faith"
"Lord today I accept my calling not to perfection or performance. My calling is to faith. I have been chosen for this generation. I have a place in the heritage of faith. I'm going to stop wishing and whining and start believing and receiving. What Your Word says is mine. I won't let others steal my hope. I won't argue with a Pharisee. I will believe and therefore speak, for You, my God, are huge. Nothing is too hard for You.
Our World needs your wonders. Rise up, oh Lord!
Please renew Your works in our day. I confess the unbelief of my generation and ask You to begin Your revival of faith in my own heart. For You are who You say You are. You can do what You say You can do. I am who You say I am. I can do all things through Christ. Your Word is alive and active in me. Satan, hear me clearly: My Father is Maker of heaven and earth. You are under my feet, because today and the rest of my days, I'M BELIEVING GOD!".........Beth Moore's "Believing God"

The State of Hypocrisy

Whether it's due to a practice of living in denial, feeling entitled, or just being plain selfish, there seems to be a chronic epidemic in our culture today....a formal, visible, and shameless state of hypocrisy.
Neighbors think it's ok for their daily activities to infringe upon your rights: permanent street parking, unruly children, destructive pets, loud parties, etc., but you are expected to abide by the homeowner's association rules at all times. Most drivers feel that traffic lights and signs are for those "other people" that are not as important as themselves. After all, they NEED to drive through that red light to get the best parking space for themselves at work! Why NOT pull out in front of an oncoming car? Isn't what they're doing and their agenda of greater importance that the safety of others?
And then are the 'cell addicts' that use their phones to text, catch up, and work themselves into a fit while driving, shopping, and working around us. Their communicating, oftentimes very loudly, is a priority and those around them will just have to get over it, or accept that their car is totalled in sacrifice to their conversation and it's importance on the food chain.
How about the intolerant, tolerant liberal left?! We can discuss and worship tree frogs, witches, the occult, and idolize celebrities, but the awesome and holy name of Jesus causes chokes, sputters, and rage from the intolerant tolerant. (It's still the name above all names, praise God!)
 The tip of the hypocritical iceberg: I should be allowed to do as I please....but not you.
Finally, our corrupt administration and congress must be brought up as well as they seem to be setting the standard...........We who pay their salaries must sit in stunned, incapicitated apathy while they arrange our country as they see fit.....AS LONG AS THEY DON'T HAVE TO FOLLOW THE SAME RULES THEY SET UP FOR THE REST OF US!
I think many Americans, like myself, are becoming increasingly fed up with this state of affairs and I personally predict some major rebellion, uprising, and the occasional traffic smack downs. I no longer see horrible accidents on the news and ask "how?"..........I know how.
The saving grace is just that.........God's saving grace. I thank Him that I'm just passing through such a place and ask Him for strength to not only walk with Him daily, but be a light that will direct others through and out of what is becoming an even darker place. I pray that while I am here, " for such a time as this", that I can continue to work for real moral change in the world around me, leaving a legacy for my children and future Americans.

Looking for Peace In All The Wrong Places....

All pageant contestants know this answer...."I would wish for world peace". All presidential candidates promise to insure our peace with other countries. There are even ambassadors earning a living working to preserve peace between their assigned country and ours.
I can't begin to count how many conversations I've had with recent democratic presidential supporters that claim their new "prince" has promised peace between the races, political parties, and the nations, when Barack Hussein Obama won his election due in no small part to racism itself.
We wait on peace with the Middle East, and in the Middle East.....our political leaders want to "sit and chat" with our sworn enemy terrorists in an attempt at 'peace'..........We try to manipulate peace between Israel and her enemies.....
Here's the truth from the beginning and the end, and from the alpha and the omega, Jesus himself:
"Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword." Matthew 10:34 Jesus came to bring salvation and reconciliation between man and his creator and gifts us with the "sword of the spirit". The ruler of THIS world is the prince of darkness, author of lies, and creator of chaos. This world is a dying creation spiraling toward it's date with The Almighty, at such time when it will be destroyed and the "New Jerusalem" will take it's place and all of God's children will dwell with Him forever. "Heaven and Earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away." Matt. 24:35
Jesus said..."In this world you will have trouble, but take heart! I have overcome the world." John16:33

So I think believers can safely assume that we can stop expecting the climate to stop shifting, wars to occur, politicians to be greedy, people to be racist, and I don't think until Jesus returns we will see an end here to theft, adultery, lying, perversions, idolatry, addiction, and disappointments. I think it's a waste of time to put everything one believes into a political affiliation thinking that being a democrat means that we can stop racism, make all things equal, end poverty and hunger, hold hands with all nations and sing "We are the world", giving credit to the mighty "O". (Well, maybe both "mighty O's" ?:) There is no SECRET that will fix you. There is no special book that will bring peace to the author's audience.
This world is temporary, dying to sin, decaying and groaning for the Creator to return and restore it, and the evil one is on the loose.......for now.
It is in our best interest to seek the only real peace that exists on this side of Heaven from our Saviour who promises us "peace like a river"....(Rivers by the way are not sedentary little swimming pools....they're ever changing, exciting, and rushing to a destination!)....and promises us that whatever we pass through in this life, He never leaves us, forsakes us, or slumbers while watching over us. He has empowered us with His word to SPEAK scripture to action and asked us to BELIEVE HIM for it....that He is who He says He is, can do what He promises, that we are His, and that His word is alive and active in us, allowing us to do all things through Christ! Amen? We are empowered to ask in the holy name of Jesus and promised an answer, even if that answer is "My Grace is Sufficient" and not what we are expecting, He will show us His awesome glory through any trial He walks us through. He has promised in Romans 8:28 to work all things to the good FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM. That, my friends, is our peace!
Please don't make the mistake of looking for peace in the news, from science, from politics, celebreties, or expecting that it will come "if only"....... "if only you lose weight", "if only we could figure out why these muslims don't like us and how to fix that"........It ain't gonna happen. We are sinners in a sinful world and the absence of sin would only mean one thing.........Jesus has returned, and Oh what glorious peace that will mean! Don't waste precious time looking for peace in this world..........look to the Almighty Healer, God of Creation, who knew you before you were born and who knows every hair on your head. Rest in Him and know peace.

Exercise your Power of Choice!...a Patriotic Boycott!

It dawned on me as I recently cancelled two of my magazine subscriptions, that in addition to the awesome power God gives His children in this world to make a difference for His kingdom, we have a unique way in our world economy of making ourselves heard and making our values ring loud and clear!.....With our money!
I had become so exhausted with two of my once favorite fashion magazines that I finally gave up. I was sick and tired of reading articles glorifying our new socialist government, reading ads for VERY EXPENSIVE globally aware chic, and having Michelle Obama shoved down my throat as a fashion mentor while watching the Ralph Lauren model be fired for gaining five pounds. Michelle Obama may be a very nice person and I hope she's a good mother, but 'fashion icon, she ain't!' Jackie O? Oh no! And what's up with the first dog? Aren't we dealing with a new wave of terrorists threats, double digit unemployment, and a mounting debt that we have no hope of ever paying off?! Why should I care that the first dog took his new owners on a stroll? Climate Gate is another story.....I no longer want to buy products that support such a sham, including girl scout cookies..(Check out the Americans for Prosperity site for video made in Copenhagen of where these cookie dollars go, globally...even here).

This rebellious magazine cancellation move inspired me to think even bigger.........WHY should I be putting my very hard earned dollars in the hands of those socialists and liberals that are dismantling my country? Think about it.....I've not been able to see another George Clooney movie as he gave me a permanent case of "Clooney revulsion" watching him campaign so hard for Obama. I no longer care to hear anything that Madonna has to sing about, and Oprah?! Forget that........can't turn it on, even to watch Sara Palin. I stopped watching Ellen after she allowed Sharon Osbourne (not even an American) to speak horribly of Governor Palin and her family and sat back and laughed as she did it. I'm pretty sick and tired of the Hollywood celebrity group that loves to campaign rather than sticking to their "day job" making millions, and allowing their state of California to go bankrupt.....pretty crazy, huh?
So...here's my plan.......I think if I were looking for a new employee, and a candidate drove up in a car with an Obama '08 sticker, I'd put that application in the "hope for change" stack and move on. If you need wrapping paper, buy it from a family's child that is working for and supporting values in our country that you believe in. If your hair dresser preaches liberalism and socialim at you during your cut or blow out, find a new one. If you're looking for dance classes, or martial arts classes for your child, find a fellow Christian conservative that offers them....They are out there!
Network with the people that share your beliefs and values and choose to use and support their services and businesses over those that don't. Support Christian small businesses and restaurants. Check out your bank and find out what their connections are and what they do with your money. Pay attention where you put your dollars. It makes no sense to give money to those that will turn around and use it to destroy what you hold most dear. Ask questions, get information, and read up on your providers. If you are looking for an alternative to AARP, check out Gen-A., a more conservative organization. With the majority of Americans sharing certain beliefs and values, it is simply a matter of doing your homework, and shouldn't be hard to easily find a fellow patriot for every need. The "key", I believe is to explain your reason. It will be much more effective for my two former magazine suppliers to know exactly why I am now turned off by their product than for them to assume mere economics. Let your grocer, hairdresser, baker, neighbor, banker, manicurist, florist, service station and car care provider (and everyone that you pay for services) know that where your heart is, your money follows.
My belief is that this is part of being a good steward with what God entrusts me with.
Shop smart, my fellow American!

November 2, 2010

Amercia's Rising has a wonderful 'must see' video!.....

Press 1 for English

I'd like to get something off my chest........I'm not a racist. I'm a patriot. I'm descended from immigrants like most Americans, but I'm feeling a little devastated that somewhere in the last two decades that SPIRIT of being one country, with one vision, one main dream, one flag, and under the guidance of the one true God became lost amidst the idol known as "political correctness"......or perhaps the one known as "diversity"?

It offends me that there are now criminal elements in our country's population that are not only allowed to remain criminal and FREE, they are entitled to all of my rights with none of my same burden of taxes or service. For those who come to this country with the purest of intentions, and do so legally, I say "Welcome", but I'd also like to add that an important part of belonging in America is to WANT TO BECOME AN AMERICAN. Learn to speak the language. Learn a little of our history. Serve. Pay taxes. Pay your bills. Make our flag your flag, our people your people, and pledge your allegiance to your new country. We speak English as a primary language, and it is a travesty that I would have to be faced with a bilingual service industry, medical industry, employers, traffic instructions, grocery store, and have everything I purchase in my country from medicine to crock pots come with double language on the front of the box. Somewhere along the line, the UN became confused with the United States of America.
In the last year, a company I independently contract with adopted a completely separate set of literature, separate company training in Spanish, and offers two flags to sign on to our site IN THE UNITED STATES....(When did we adopt a second flag?) I do not participate simply because I believe that it is this formal encouragement of separatism that makes us separate. It encourages people to stay apart rather than learn to come together as one common people. It supports the ridiculous terms : "African American", "Asian American", "Irish American", etc..........Aren't we all AMERICANS?!
Anyone working and living in this country LEGALLY should be able to speak enough of the language to ask simple rudimentary questions, or be excited and willing to learn to do so.
Above all else, a new American should be patriotic enough, desirous enough, and proud enough of coming here to start a new life living the American Dream to make the effort to assimilate rather than start another 'country within a country'.
I have made it a habit to let banks, stores, my company, and manufacturers know that, when possible, I support products and services that DO NOT require me to select between my native language and another.
Should I decide to pick up my life and move to another country, rest assured that I will make every effort to learn it's language, it's laws, and it's customs and make the commitment to fit in or leave.
God Bless America.........Love it or Leave it!

Woman to Woman

You know, sometimes it's us women that disappoint each other the most. I understand that Ms. Pelosi is a mother of five, and a grandmother of seven. I also am aware that she comes from a political family, raised by a father that served as the mayor of Baltimore, followed by five terms in Congress. What I DON'T understand is how a woman that has supposedly nurtured children and grandchildren could completely throw away concern for their lives and futures by participating in the destruction of her country and the country that they all have to live, learn, work, and seek health care in!
Most parents recognize that their children often "do what they do, not what they say", and are aware that we leave those children and grandchildren legacies. I pray that my legacy for my sons will include things like, putting people before things, trusting God in all situations and putting him first, having a servant's heart, and being thankful and appreciative for the wonderful country that our ancestors sacrificed for us to live in. I have taught them respect for our servicemen, and pride in our history. We have let them know that there is no greater country in the world, and that is by God's grace and mercy.
How shocking it is that Speaker Pelosi will leave a legacy to her family of 'power at all costs' (even their futures), extortion is ok if it serves your purpose, American people are ignorant of what's best for them, that it's ok to make laws for everyone but the elite (of which she is one), deception is simply part of the job, and the Constitution for which so many of our founding families sacrificed their lives and livelihoods is merely a worthless piece of paper when it doesn't serve one's purpose. She has taught her family that work done in 'the dark' is worthwhile, and to malign, harass, and vilify those that disagree with your opinions is necessary. The tolerance she teaches is one-sided.
My sympathies to the family of such a woman.

"Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Give her the reward she has earned, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate." Prov. 31:30-31

Sleep Walking

When you're in your golden years, and you're telling the story of the fall of America to any grandchildren you're able to have, what will you say your part in it was? Like the moon landing, and the assassination of JFK, most people have clear memories of what they were doing at the time.
While evil was elected in November 2008, with the help of the celebrity idols what were you doing?...... Were you catching up on a reality show?
When liars and thieves in congressional costumes were plotting behind closed doors and commiting extortion, bribery, and raping our constitution, where were you? Were you standing in a midnight line outside a movie theater for vampire movie tickets?
I think much more than the shock of what our anti-American socialist administration is doing to dismantle the country, the disappointment I feel in a lot of my "fellow Americans" has been much more hurtful. I have heard people say..."I don't really care"........I've seen people bury their heads in t.v., shopping, and their jobs, making the assumption that 'someone else' will fix this. Did anyone look up from their mall shopping during the holiday season, or hanging their lights, to find out what filth was going on under our very noses? What horrible deeds were being done that may affect all of our futures and our familie's futures?
See........WE left the door unlocked. WE dropped the ball. As a nation, we have become so obsessed with talk show hosts and their newest religion, the latest celebrity scandal, and our own self improvement, that our freedoms are being stolen. Our rights are being sold. Our morals have hit the skids, and Oh! America!........We are reaping what we've sown, more than we've sown, and later than we've sown.
WAKE UP SLEEPING GIANT!!!
