Still no help from Obama on the border issue and it appears there will be none in the future the way things are going. Today on Greta, the guest Representative Gutierrez was quizzed about what to do on the border issue and the best she could get from him was something about his social security card was the same as years ago.
No matter how many times Greta tried to get Mr Gutierrez to tell her how to go about securing the border he would not acknowledge anything to do with securing the border. His plan was simply to let people come on in and give them amnesty, an approach much like many others on the liberal side of this border equation. It sure seems to me there are lots of people in politics at this point in our history that do not believe in protecting our borders. These are some of the first people that need to be thrown out of office in this next election. Until we can control the border the crime problems there will only get worse.
Senator Kyl in Arizona has said that Obama does not want to secure the border until there is some type of "comprehensive" immigration policy put into place. That simply means that until the GOP gives in to his amnesty policy for illegals the president does not intend to do anything with really making the border secure. Jan Brewer has repeatedly called on the president for help with the drug and illegal immigrant problem in Arizona. Her calls for help have gone either unanswered or answered with this current threat of being sued, sometimes referred to as a "slap down".
Lots of things going on in this country that leads me to believe that certain people are not doing, what they swore an oath to do, when they hired on to their current job. Some may not like that but like it or not those are the facts and no amount of pissing and moaning are going to change those facts. We need to elect some people into office that will take their oath to protect this country seriously and not just say that and step in and start doing something entirely different. Got to hold these politicians feet to the fire people, got to hold em.
Keeping it simple is the plan here. Search through each day of my life with the possibility that something comes through all the clutter. Post when I can and hope once in a while something interesting finds it's way into the mixture. Frontiers forever are my dreams and hopes that seem always to lie just over the next hill, never quite within reach, but still always there and forever calling out to me.

war really is hell
Today the news is over General Machrystal and statements made by him or more accurately statements made by aids under the General which raise questions not over the subject in the news but an underlying subject. I think what we have here, (The underlying theme about the General) is nothing more than the presidents idea of winning by pulling out of Afghanistan blowing up in his face and in the face of the world. It appears that the situation is not conducive to winning along the terms the president set forth. Too much pressure for following this plan is creating an impossibility to complete by the command structure in the war zone.
Look for the General to be fired then another replacement will be installed to try his luck at fulfilling a dream instead of a real plan to win in that country where terror made such an obscene picture unfold in the heart of New York City. I feel when you stamp a date on policy it is one thing but when you put a date on a war, well that turns out to be entirely another matter and one that will not follow any rules set out by any president. Rules of war or the plans for a war change always immediately upon contact with the enemy and will remain a changing constant till victory is obtained or defeat handed back. Pray for our troops and our country and especially for Obama. God help us all, times are moving to a certain end.

the two shall never meet
TV is a wonderful invention, but it has its drawbacks much like many other of our modern conveniences. The part of TV I dislike most of all is the lack of intervention. One can watch or one can turn the channel or one can turn the thing off and go about their every day lives making progress with self improvement or interacting with other people. You cannot make a TV listen to you no matter how loud you scream or yell. Those talking will continue to say whatever they they wish to say without listening to anything you continue to yell. Thats one of the inconveniences I mentioned above.
Today the political ramblings of the Sunday talk shows went across the wires right on cue. The same old lies from the same old people once again made their um-teenth rounds while the same old watchers sat frustrated screaming the same old screams for the um-teenth time with the same old results. Lies are rampart on TV talk shows because those doing the interviewing share a political point of view either with or against the one being interviewed. Once you have this alliance then what you get is either what you want to hear or what you know you will hear, but undoubtedly you will not hear the exact facts whatever is being discussed.
This boils down to what type person you are. There are basically two categories of politicians; Conservatives and Liberals, and basic attitudes are formed about most all of the choices we make as human beings in this country. A question was asked today about raising the price of Liability on drilling which is already at some seventy-five Million dollars. The liberal said we need to have a much higher price because we need to have rich companies drilling so they would be able to pay in case of these accidents. The Conservative said, You need to keep the price reasonable otherwise you will only have rich companies drilling and then you have fewer chances for there to be fair competition. Plus you end up with Government coming in and having to subsidize some of the smaller companies and you will end up with bribery taking place so the little guy can come in to drill.
Two philosophies, two political parties, two types of TV watchers, and still no way to scream loud enough for the lying bastards to hear you.

the plan is no plan
There is a word for the stuff you heard from the president tonight, bull-shit. Talk about crap it was genuine 100% crap. To say the reason that BP was drilling where they were was due to the fact we were running out of oil is as big a lie as Obama has spoken since he became president of this country. The reason BP was drilling where they were is due to this administration wanting to squash the oil drilling operations in this country and not allowing drilling in places more accessible, which is directly due to the president and the environmentalists in this country.
If this guy does not lift the moratorium on drilling what will happen is more people will continue to be out of work while the rest of the world grows their economies. This country will not make it on wind solar and batteries people, it isn't going to happen. Now we will sit and watch the problem in the gulf grow and we can hope that somehow someone will find a way to stop this leak and start cleaning the disaster which has taken place along the coastline of Louisiana and the other gulf states. Prayers accepted.

More spite against Israel
The Israel situation continues to be on the minds of many people today. Since the incident with the flotilla more people world wide raised their voices in discontent against Israel. There seems to be a crescendo building against the one country that has stood by our side from the beginning and now they find the United States voting with the UN and against them. How this can be I do not know. Many things that this president and Congress have done of late are things I do not go along with and certainly do not agree with. I've written in letters to friends and family in the past how I believe that the entire world would soon come against Israel. There was a couple that voiced more than a little disagreement since they felt the US would never be one of those condemning Israel. Things have taken place now and that one point is no longer valid.
I believe a lot of this started with President Obama chastising Netanyahu. Afterwards when the news got out about the treatment, "the very rude treatment at that", at that point other countries felt they now have a green light to continue with their hate and hateful treatment of Israel. Countries now will go all out to demand more from Israel and all the while ignore those kingdoms and countries that have long abused human rights of their citizens for generations . We need to show solidarity with Israel and let the world know Israel is a friend. If that does not happen then you can be assured that countries which have condemned and attacked Israel in the past will continue to do so, only now they will do it with more vengeance. Even though Germany will raise their voice with others, in the end look for some understanding of this situation to be shown towards Israel.

Israel seeks friendship
Look for Israel to search for an ally. The ally that Israel will find is Germany. The time draws closer for the friendship between the two countries to take place. Israel has been bludgeoned by Obama with his acts towards Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu. Israel is being accused by all countries for every problem that exists in the middle east and all eyes are on them. With the latest action in the UN it is certain that in this search for an ally Germany will be the one they turn to in the very near future.
It has been said by particular individuals that this would take place. The breakdown between Israel and the United States. It has also been said that Israel would combine with Germany for a period to take on the problem of Iran. Look for it to happen. These and other acts will take place because they are not random acts. These actions which are taking place and others that will take place have been predicted by a group of people with information which has not been rebuked. Keep your eyes on Israel and Europe. The pope will become involved and is scheduled to visit countries in hopes to bring the different religions closer and perhaps under a large umbrella religion. As this transpires a Catholic bishop was murdered today prior to the arrival of the pope in Greek Cyprus. Some claim it's due to the child abuse scandal others don't want the pope in the country for differing reasons. Watch and read.
