Photo IDs

I have heard lots of talk in the recent days discussing this Photo ID requirement before a person can vote. Well the Democrats don't think people should be required to produce a Photo ID when they vote. The Dems are on the "No ID" side of the argument While the Republicans think requiring a Photo ID would help eliminate the possibility of individuals voting using the name of another registered voter. At this point the law requiring a PID to vote is being deemed unconstitutional by this administration.

It appears those opposed to a voter being required to show a PID, is they fear someone will feel offended at being asked to produce this type of an ID. To me feeling offended is not reason enough to do away with the PID requirement. To me it seems the Dems are trying very hard indeed to portray asking for a PID  falls in the same category as racism and when you call on someone to produce this type of ID they want to say it's the same thing as asking someone for a "Poll Tax". Plus at the same time your being a racist when you do this.

There is objections when you bring up the subject of voting and having to use a PID. And one of those objections is about the cost of the ID, which the Dems suggest there's no way people can come up with that extra money because they have to spend that money for something else. Of course there are always variations of the excuses why people can't buy  PIDs but their favorite seems to be, they don't have a car so there is just not any need for a drivers license. They fail to mention that regular state IDs can be purchased at the same window as Drivers License  plus you don't even have to waste the time on a driving test. Each time an excuse comes up for not having a picture ID and for whatever reason, the potential voter comes up with, you can be assured the Democrat party will be in agreement because they have a selfish motive.

The cost for a PID is generally fifteen/twenty dollars. Many of the states that recently passed laws which require a PID are offering free or reduced prices for people who can't afford the money to pay for the IDs. Regardless of all the objections the left keeps throwing out concerning PIDs the closer the next big election gets to us and with that closeness comes the greater possibility for some individual to pull the lever against one candidate and when they do that it will make the legitimate vote of some legal voter null and void. That's right, because of some imagined offense against some imagined individual the Democrat party is willing to flush down the drain, the vote of a legitimate American voter all in the name of some pretended racial offense. This is complete stupidity brought to a new low.

This United States of America became the greatest country in the history of mankind in part due to our Constitution and being a country of laws. Among the many blessings derived from that great work which established rule of law was that law which gave every legal person a voice in their every day lives and in the workings of "our" government and established the law which gave voting rights to qualified citizens. For America to continue with this success citizens must do their part through voting, and when that is done it helps assure this country will retain its' greatness.

It's imperative that we all follow the law and one of the ways which helps this country to work is we all have a stake in what happens. That is done in America by eligible persons participating in and voicing their opinions through the voting process. Voting in elections is a very special responsibility not to be taken lightly and our voting rights must never allowed  to be abused or misused in any manner. Whenever an ineligible person votes in an election that vote robs a legitimate voter of their vote. It does not matter if it is one or one hundred people who cast an ineligible vote because when that illegal vote happens it wipes out the legal vote of some individual who has lived, worked, paid their share, and earned his or her right to vote.

There has been an awesome price paid in blood and lives by our military to secure the voting rights of Americans and it is our combined responsibility to make sure elections stay fair and honest for every Citizen of this great country. This right of voting should never be taken lightly and it must not be allowed to be abused by anyone and people who are ineligible should NEVER  be given the slightest chance to pull that lever and void even one single American vote.

This last statement about photo IDs is plain and simple. Check cashing in banks require a picture ID. Want to see certain movies you have to present a PID. Want to rent certain things your required to present an ID with photo. The list gets longer but the story stays the same. The Dems are together against this type of ID and say voter fraud isn't a problem, that there's no need for the PIDs law. Dems like to defend their position by saying that requiring voters to present a PID keeps people from being allowed to vote.

I do have to be truthful, Obama/Holder are very serious about photo ids. The Obama/Holder administration however is worried about a stranger going into a federal building and on this they strongly back the law requiring a Photo ID to enter federal buildings, but at the same time neither Obama or Holder are worried if some stranger walks into the voting booth and steals a legal American vote from its rightful owner. No not worried at all, for them no PID in that case is just fine and perfectly alright.

For the Soldiers, Airmen, Sailors, Guard, Marines, all the men and women who have paid that final price with their life I'd like to say to them and those who may read this, those people paid a hell of a price. Some of them may  never even gone to pull that lever and vote, they were that young. I can bet if they could have the chance to make it to the polls now... I bet they'd be willing to come up with the 20 bucks to get an ID so they could vote and in fact, I'd be willing to bet more than I even have that given the chance they would throw down a hell of a lot more than that 20 bucks for one final chance to do what they died for.

To those against a PID, those brave souls gave their lives so you could pull the lever and choose whoever you believed would serve you best. Those lives are now gone, given up so that you can now complain about how life is too tough for you to come up with 20 bucks for a damn Photo ID. I said 15/20 bucks for an ID, that is chump change my friends. Compared to what those brave people gave, that's chump change. To any out there not willing to do whatever it takes to get a picture ID, then I say to you, "You don't deserve to vote in the first damn place".

pay attention

I realized something just a short time back when I happened to click on msnbc and saw one of the hosts talking about the wall street protesters. As I listened I was  impressed with how much difference there was in what was being said on msnbc and what was being shown on all the different stations. The explanation given by the pundits on msnbc was one of pride in what was being done by the people occupying Zuccotti Park.  Praise was being heaped on those people and they were being compared to real American heroes. This revision of facts was being done as their actions were being shown on TV for the world to see.


As I listened to the people talk about this event I was very moved but in a way that made me want to keep a close eye and ear on what being presented by msnbc and others with the same view.  It came over  me how naive I was in thinking that everybody really wanted to preserve this country and maintain the principles of our founders. Events over the past year have moved at amazing speed and as these events came and went I found myself spending a little more time on these channels and I actually listened to what was coming out of their mouths and not just sit and scream at the TV. I've gotten to know pundits other than Matthews and Maddow but I've come to see that they all hold the same contempt for what the country is and what it represents. Obama came onto the scene and these same people crowned him king the main reason being because he holds the same views of America as the liberal left.


I am very concerned with the direction the left wants us go. If they get their way it will bring this country right to the very place Europe had to leave before the entire country faced bankruptcy. Europe understands socialism does not work, even though it took the collapse of Greece and several other countries to bankrupt before they came to their senses. If the left in America has their way this country will go the way of Greece, there is no other option. So, I say to any who would read this please listen to what is being said on msnbc and other liberal outlets because what is said there reflects the views of the entire democrat party as well as the president. After all, the president said if he was elected he would transform America. I'm afraid he means what he said  and America needs to pay attention.

struggles

The economy is front and center when it comes to the United States as well over seas. While the world watches the situation in Europe as they go about fixing their economic problems the world does not seem to realize their is an undercurrent story in Europe that much of the world does not see. The undercurrent in Europe is the anxiety being felt over the power Germany has gained while the fight to salvage the Euro has gone forward.


Fear is beginning to rise and people are speaking out saying too much power is being used against countries which fail to toe the line. Sovereignty is the question being raised and some like Britain are struggling to maintain some independence but in stead are being told they will follow orders being handed down from Germany one way or another. After running rough shod over Britain it should be fairly clear individualism has falling by the way side. To unite their countries in order to build a strong united group in order to survive through sharing  is one thing but to build that group through order of dictate is quite another and certain countries are beginning to see clearly the role Germany is playing now is not the role Germany portrayed in the beginning.The struggle to survive, the struggle with the Euro, and the struggle with independence are all major problems in Europe.

too expensive, suppression, or obligation

Since the beginning of the year murmuring began over voters having to present picture ID's when voting. This was being encouraged by the Republican party to insure every person who voted was actually who they claimed to be. On the other side the Democrats have said there is no need for anyone to produce a photo ID when they vote because no person has ever been charged with voter ID fraud.

My thinking is how can you charge someone with lying about who they are if you do not know who they are in the first place. Dems have their constituents claiming they don't have photo ID's and can't afford photo ID's. This claim has been most pronounced from black Democrat voters and that claim has been pushed hard by the National Democratic Party. I find this photo ID to be one of the easiest and most assured ways of preventing voter fraud that is available and the claim of prohibitive cost is absurd to say the least.

These days photo ID's are common place, you can't get on an airplane and for an individual to open a bank account they have to produce a valid photo ID in most every bank in this country. A photo ID is essential for cashing payroll checks and there are very few places that will cash a personal check for anyone without a current photo ID even in small towns unless they are known by the store owner.

The Democrat Party is trying to portray Republicans as racists who are trying to suppress voters. This is another lie to draw attention to the other hand as they say in the magic world. Only recently uncovered and in the news was an investigation on the election of Obama where it showed hundreds of names on a petition was found to be fraudulent. This is one  more example of why it is necessary to have a photo ID.

The items needed to get a photo ID is pretty common throughout the country. Present a birth certificate, present something to show you are in America legally, show something that proves you live in the state where you are going to be voting and give the establishment a price for the ID, usually around 20 dollars, and your done, you now are photo ID'ed and ready to legally vote in your state and no other person can vote in your name.

 This is important and I will say this in closing, I find it trifling to think people believe the cost of a photo ID is too high a price to pay for them to assure our system of democracy is preserved. Ask yourself if what you pay for photo ID compares to what millions of Americans have paid when they gave their lives to save our Republic and peoples right to have their vote count, honestly.  So as much as the Democrat party wants, requiring voters to present a photo ID to prevent some illegal voter from stealing their vote cannot be called voter suppression, how about call it repaying a debt.

careful newt

I see this morning that Gingrich has moved up in the ratings to number one in the polls above Mitt. If that is the case I am quite sure it won't be long till some female pulls a Herman Cain on Newt. I am going to watch Holder this morning and see what kind of story he can come up with. We will have to see how the Dems take the story about Newt I am sure they will appear to be quite happy over the latest polls.

bubba needs a job

I have thought some about the helicopter which failed to return from the Bin Laden mission. Here we had a very expensive and sophisticated piece of equipment which was left to fall into the hands of our enemies. Through reverse engineering China probably managed to recover information which took the US billions to produce. This information in the hands of China is not a good thing and has allowed China to bypass lengthy and costly procedures our scientists and engineers struggled for years to obtain. A piece of the crashed helicopter left fairly intact was all it took for China with the help of our supposed allies, the Pakistanis, to gather up the tail of this helicopter just as a tow truck would pick up an illegally parked car.


This is not something unexpected. Surely the military knows planes and helicopters have a history of failure and in a war zone there is that little problem of missiles and rockets and things that go Boom! For the life of me I cannot understand how they have allowed this to happen again with this latest incident of a drone falling into the hands of our enemies. Imagine the ability of a country to operate an aircraft halfway around the world. Here they are able to take pictures to take video and spy on the enemy allowing us to save lives and prevent tragedy without endangering the life of a pilot. That is a great and wonderful advancement and has been a tremendous help in our struggles to bring an end to this war we fight in Afghanistan. 


So the drone falls to the ground. UH-OH. Lays there for anyone to come along take and take it apart, reverse engineer, and then do with the remainder of the craft as they wish. We sit half way around the world with a joy stick in our hand and worry in our minds. Hey people! Bubba's got an idea. How bout lets stick an old fashioned stick of dynamite in that sum bitch with a few old-fashioned matches that would strike on impact? Surely to hell if you can fly this damn thing from half way round the world, I be damned if you can't figure out some way to blow that sum'bitch to smither-eens on impact. Come on guys wake the hell up. Hell, hire Bubba he can figger this one out. 

changes are-a-coming

Around the world economic problems are on the rise. There are many people who cannot find work while many of those working continue to lose ground as prices  rise. On top of the problems with the economy there remains the struggle for power and the struggle with Islam creating their Caliphate. Europe is struggling and I believe the collapse of the Euro which will hurt the US as well as Europe due to many investments of individuals as well the big fund management people. Perhaps the shortages of food, and big ticket luxuries that some people are accustomed to will cause people to become aware of trouble that will come to this country. We will enter a time of much unrest and it will be a time for people to become aware of the world around them and what the future holds for them. Pay attention people realize times are changing pretty fast.
The Arab Caliphate that once ruled so much of that part of the world is on the track to reconstitute. This is the same Caliphate which so many people ridiculed and poo-pooed and said it would not happen, especially now there was not any way a Caliphate could happen. Again not now that would never take place because there are all those Democratic changes that are happening all over the Middle East. But it will come to fruition. Another fact that has not been brought to the forefront in society is the growing united countries in Europe which will be headed by Germany. And yes I still believe Israel will be attacked and east Jerusalem be taken over by the Arabs. You can also believe when this happens there will be a very strong reaction by Germany and the front they will unite in Europe. We are living in very trying times and people need to be aware the actions happening in Europe and keep the eyes on Iran.

could it happen?

Troubles across Europe consume the masses of many in those countries America helped save so many years ago. Those troubles have stirred the birth pangs of a long talked about step-child called a "one world government". America is facing some very trying times as well and will look for solutions and not all of those solutions will be peaceful. Voices have been raised from the four corners trying to alert any who would listen that a One World Government should be created. The stories spread and they laughed and they scoffed and they ridiculed. Europe, that land of such diversity slowly began reaching out one country to another and slowly many of their borders became less visible. Then with a slow pace boundaries once closely guarded by man and gun and accessible only with appropriate papers and stamps began to remove guards and guns and spread open arms to welcome all who wished to enter.

Treaty after treaty over the centuries were signed and violated often before ink had dried even as the signers shook hands. But now the ink on newer treaties have dried and those new treaties have started to bring the loosely bound lands together and they now have slowly begun to entertwine with one another in hopes of strengthening economies trying to survive there while avoiding the troubles which plagued Europe of the past, things like wars of world proportions which caused the loss of millions of lives in the process. Always there comes a leader and from that emerges the beginnings of trouble because such a change requires a very strong hand to direct the changes that must be made. 

The changes will not be good for all parties and there will be losers along with the winners. What will be necessary to implement such changes and make these differing countries and people become strong enough to be "a country" and not break into many pieces?. When such an event as a one world government is to be instituted there will have to be something to hold these diverse groups together. In reality there are only a few options available to make this happen. One of those is force. When there are so many people of different nationalities, different views, and different heritage brought together  there has to be order and there has to be someone/something in charge with the power to maintain that order. 

Size matters and in this case since we are not dealing with one on one but are dealing with countries and great numbers of people that make up many millions we will need something stronger than one big man with one big stick going against another big man with another big stick. To maintain order of the population there would have to be legions of men with guns not sticks. This would be one way to control the masses and create some semblance of order... an army. 

Order can also come from family but this OWG will not be family.  Besides an army to establish rule, bloodlines can control a great many people and order can be maintained since family has its own built in set of rules to create that order needed to maintain structure and keep anarchy at bay. Since we are talking countries and millions by the millions of people this will not be done through family bloodlines.

Army, Bloodlines/families are two choices available to establish for a one world government but we have one other choice to help establish the order needed to maintain stability and peace. That will be religion. The religion of Islam has controlled masses of people for centuries. Now what other religion do we have at this point which shares the number of people like Islam? A world religion to compare to Islam would have to have a large number of followers and a leader strong enough to command followers to adhere to that religions policy. 

If there is to be a One World Government it will be ruled with an army or it will be ruled by a religion. We can forget the family running the outfit because we just don't have one big enough. So what needs to be done is to keep your eyes open for country breakdowns, strikes, and things like food shortages look around and when this happens grab you some self-protection and your bag of beans because some of us just won't fit into this new family/OWG.

another one bites the dust

Kudaffi, however it is to be spelled one thing for sure is he will not make any objections either to its pronunciations or spelling. Another dictator bites the dust and another Arab country prepares itself for entrance into the arms of Iran. This makes one more country setting itself free from one dictator only to become stepchild to the main sponsor of terror in the world that being Iran. I have said before and will continue to say that Iran will be head of the Arab snake setting itself up for control of a Middle East Caliphate and put the yoke of Muslim obedience on the necks of as many infidels as possible.

Following the pattern of riots abroad we can see here in America there is afoot those wishing the downfall of this country. They have kept low for some time but now they have begun to raise their flag in an attempt to alert the masses with similar views on politics and global rule that time is approaching for them to try pulling this government down and join ranks with enemies of America who would destroy all that is America.

This is about big Satan and little Satan and to make sure those two countries and all their brothers of the West no longer spread capitalism and the freedom which gives people the choice and chance to be really free. It is a world come full circle when this Arab world brings their dream into play because there will be chaos around the world. Europe and what it becomes will end up striking out at Iran and will overcome them in their attempt to help Israel but you will find that Germany betrays Israel in the end. Germany has continued their subtle move to completely take control of Europe and is doing say with full approval from those being sucked in with the con job and help from the Pope with his encouragement for a unified religion. We can only watch as it moves closer to fulfilling destiny..

mlk political rally

The MLK monument dedication was on the calendar today in Washington. I turned the TV on to listen to the speeches dedicating the new monument of King and expected to hear much of what Doctor King preached about during his time fighting, preaching, marching for equal rights in America.I expected also to hear some words on just how far the nation has come now with a black President at the helm of state of this great nation. MLK fought hard and long for dignity for all people and that is a good thing. Everybody deserves to have an equal shot at life especially in their home country and it should not depend on the color of their skin nor who their parents were. These rights should be for everyone to enjoy and prosper by their own merit not by dictate or force.

I heard something different from the people giving speeches. Rather than hearing the praises of MLK I kept hearing the Democratic talking points and praise for the radicals wanting to destroy the capitalistic system of America. Destroy the system that brought wealth and prosperity not only to this great country but a system that brought prosperity to the entire world. Instead the crowd on Wall Street is where the ceremony went even from the first speech of his daughter all the way to------.


This event turned out to be nothing more than a democrat political rally for Obama and democrat politicians, nothing more. There was bashing of the Republicans by Andrew Young and others claiming the problems of today can only be solved by re-electing Obama and continue what is taking place today. Yeah things are really going well with the Democrat team in Washington who in their right mind would ever want to change whats going on now no indeed, let no person stand and rock this boat, things are going too well to rock this boat especially now...

riots or protests

There's been lots of talk about the gatherings that have been taking place on Wall Street and a few other places around the country. These events have been pushed by the labor unions, organizations sponsored by George Soros, Communist groups, Arianna Huffington and general thuggery from around the country. There is lots of talk about class warfare from TV pundits to the President and all their actions and words are designed to help stir people to protest. The problem is most of these people protesting have no idea what the hell any of this is all about. There are plenty of these young people who have been duped by individuals and organizations and there are some militant groups within this mixture some of whom would like nothing better than to bring the country down. Why? They probably don't know that answer only that they follow like lemmings.

There are people in the media who make lite over these protests and are promoting them maybe not realizing these events could escalate far beyond what any normal American would want or expect and unless they were curbed quickly, real trouble could erupt. The first time things get out of hand and protesters are injured it may be enough to cause more of the radicals to infiltrate the ranks and some of theme have a real desire to create real trouble, that will create real damage, and it won't just be damage to property. These near riots are not to show the trouble caused by the bailouts, bankers, and mortgage problems but in the long run I think it's more of an attempt to gain support for the left and the 2012 elections to re-instate Barack Obama. Some, if not most of the financial problems the protesters are raising hell over, were brought on by bankers but not on their own. Along with those bankers there was the incompetence of politicians like Dodd and Franks and we can't forget the Democratic legislation enacted under the control of a radical liberal agenda being directed exclusively through the handy work of Nancy Pelosi.

There are groups backing the protests other than Soros and labor and as I stated earlier some of them are violent and may take any opportunity to create major confrontations between the protesters and the law keepers. Labor will bring the numbers and along with their numbers come the muscle and given an opportunity they will use this muscle. There are the groups that want trouble but unlike the disruptions that took place in Wisconsin, they want Wisconsin  magnified many times over. Unfortunately a majority of these people protesting do not know what they are protesting or who is behind the protest they so passionately seem to back and have not taken the time to know. There are some who are getting paid while the tag-a-longs follow the crowd and will be nothing more than cannon fodder for the unions.

"fast & furious" gun cover-up

For the problem facing Attorney General Holder I had to say something. This administration along with Holder have tried to come up with some way to enforce stricter gun laws and since their core beliefs are in fact to ban that pesky 2nd amendment thing entirely I can see perfectly why there was the need to ignore and lie about, "fast and furious", That is the governments attempt to trace down illegal gun purchasers. Excuse me? Seems to me all that was needed by the Attorney Generals office was to find a mirror and take a quick peek and "behold, what's that in that mirror... could it be... maybe... perhaps...? Yep! Sure enough, staring right back at them is that seller of illegal weapons, right there in the mirror, Oh Wow! What great detectives are we...there is the culprit staring at them square in the face it's the Attorney General and his sidekicks.

The desire of the Democrat party, and Holder, and Obama, and liberal minions across this land is for a gun ban but not just for those high powered guns the Government sold to the drug cartel across the Mexican border. and not just  for hand guns. The radical left, which now includes practically the entire Democrat wing, would tell you their ideal gun law would be the total enforcement against gun ownership, seriously people, no guns for any citizens which means any weapon of any size or caliber.

 After all, think how much good has been accomplished by the wacko politicians from California when they took it on themselves to put restrictions on toy hand guns for children. Wow, how helpful has that been and so wonderful for California to take it upon themselves to save us from toy guns. I can just see how that will make the country so much safer for everyone and for generations to come, perhaps? This is more of the same thing and is one of the planks of the Democrat party that guns to be taken from all citizens hands and for them to be left at the mercy of a government to rule with an iron hand. But not to worry about the government, I mean it isn't like one of those foreign governments that would lie to its citizens and sell weapons to drug dealers and then cover it up. Here in this country we have laws and we have elected officials that took an oath to defend the constitution so,.. Or...?

gullible

Wendy Sherman, nominee for some position in the offices of Undersecretary the State Dept, was in a hearing and the problems between Egypt and Israel was brought up concerning recent problems where Egyptians were killed during an attack against Israel from armed insurgents. State Dept. policy according to Sherman was that the US believes basically that the situation will be safe and that Egypt is going to be a fair law abiding state operated within the bounds of a democracy of sorts. These people are blind and stupid if they think for a minute that people from the Muslim Brotherhood will allow Egypt to operate as some free and democratic state. This country will fall under the thumb of Iran and will turn to Islamic law for their total authority.

The State Department lives and operates under some fairy tale philosophy that all it take is talking to your enemies. This same way of thinking is how the State Dept expects the Israel/Palestinian situation to be solved. Palestine will not accept Israel being an individual state with established borders which can be defended. Forgetting defend-able borders, Palestine will not even recognize Israel as a state with a right to exist so we know the rest of any peace process is nothing more than pie-in-the-sky dreams of a liberal population. The UN meeting due within days will bring up a vote for a Palestinian state. If a Palestine state is approved by the members this would do great harm and create problems greater than anyone realizes. All the Arab world will automatically call for the immediate destruction and removable of citizens from the current state of Israel. We have gone through this before and unless people honestly look at the truth about what is taking place in Israel then the slaughter committed against Israel will happen again.

flash thugs

We don't have enough problems in this country we probably need to find a way to create more problems and need to do it soon. Here is a new little problem going around many cities today. It goes like this; get a bunch of  kids to gather at some pre-appointed place and on cue everyone enter the establishment and grab anything of value as quick as possible and then run like hell. If you have to hurt someone while your getting your stuff then so be it. These mobs are not only robbing stores but beatings as well take place of the young, the old, infirm or not. People walking down the street have been beaten down, people in their cars, their homes broken into and people pulled out and beaten on their front porch. Happy Flash Mobbing Everyone!

Around this country those acts are taking place and it's being emulated by other groups once they hear about how successful the other mobs are doing. News coverage of the people doing these things are being referred to as kid gangs, teenagers with nothing to do, disenfranchised, and every other imaginable poor-me group you can come up with, and then they make excuses by saying they do it because of poor schools, few employment opportunities, years of being held down by society, and the excuses go on and on. During the broadcasts or in the news clippings the most often neglected piece of information given to the public concerning these mobs is the fact these people committing these violent acts are black. That's right, the thing most often not mentioned is the race of the people doing all the beatings, robbing, and mayhem. There are many many of us who have said race problems (riots) will play a big role in this country. You can't have a liberal society that takes God out of society, promotes abortion, social justice, homosexuality, single parents, make society completely dependent on government and then threaten to take away all the goodies and think the patients won't try a takeover of the asylum. We have begun to reap the harvest.

here again?

What will happen to America? Would we survive the kind of turmoil that is taking place in the Middle East or in Europe? Chances are pretty good that America could handle those types of incidents in we allowed God to take precedence. I don't think Americans are as God-grounded today as was the case in those years prior to the radical 60's. A change came over the country somewhere along that point. Then self, became the all important focus of life in America. God became a Sunday morning church visit to show neighbors we were certainly still"Christians" but that was about as far as it went.

We are looking at a very different America today than what our parents grew up under. The country is at a point where God has been removed from everyday life and those who claim to be Christians today are looked down upon and even ridiculed in some instances. Changes unlike any we have ever seen in this country are taking place, the kind our parents certainly would never have imagined. Although these things may not have been imagined indeed they were prophesied. Yep, that's right this story has already been written but participants have the opportunity to make changes.

In Ecclesiastes1 we find; All the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea is not full. To the place from which the rivers come, there they return again. That which has been, is what will be, that which is done, is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. Is there anything of which it may be said,  “ See, this is new”? It has already been in ancient times before us. There is no remembrance of former things, nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come by those who will come after.


Our situation today is new, yet some have read the book and others have skimmed the pages, some have seen the reviews, very few are totally unaware of the story and the players involved. This is the life long story of good and evil, and we are players in a very real game. A very real game for sure, but one that will for a time, allow each of us a chance to influence our outcome.

next question please

In addition to my previous post about Harry Reid and his news conference a while ago I have started to hear some reporters from a couple different TV stations ask real questions of the Democrats. Jay Carney had to actually answer a couple pointed questions about the battle going on with the layoffs of FAA folks. How far this will go and whether or not the reporters will continue to dig and ask pertinent questions of the Democrats is up in the air. However it goes, one can continue to hope it goes ahead for a long spell which could mean someone has gotten part of the message sent by the TEA party. It seemed quite odd to see what is normally a softball set of questions asked of the presidents' spokesman turn into several questions that seemed to take Carney off step for a moment or two. How long this turn around will last, again I do not know

meanie publicans

Harry Reid and his crew just came to the cameras to give some more talking points on how terrible the Republicans are. Harry just finished telling the world how mean and uncaring the Republicans are because they refuse to allow workers back and having FAA members all on the side lines. Forgetting of course the Republicans gave Harry a bill to work his magic on in the Senate. After all he has about fifty something people in the senate who are Democrats.Harry why didn't you get your members to agree with the Republicans. Poor Harry can't understand how the mean Republicans could possibly allow people who want to work not to go back to work. Wow Harry, maybe you could run your scrawny ass up the the President and say those same words to the President and instead of using FAA and Government workers insert into their place Louisiana oil field workers and oil producers around the country who are in the same place who have stood and the side line begging for the president to reopen their jobs. Those jobs have cost this country many billions already plus put us in jeopardy by having to depend on our enemies for energy. Man oh man, the whining we can do when it is our ox being gored. And I include myself in that statement.

hype

There is lots of hype since last night over word that an agreement for extending the debt ceiling had been reached, but as with all agreements the devil is in the details. From early reports, smaller spending cuts than rating agencies had wanted are in this deal just reached. There will be debate over this bill but the time frame will prevent congress from debating the bill same as the Obama-care bill and we will simply end up with more controversy that will not be good for anyone. I believe the agencies will still downgrade our rating and when that happens you can bet the lame stream media will blame the TEA party and the Republicans..

The ceiling being raised was not the problem for getting a downgrade. The reason for downgrading from AAA was how  much debt was going to be eliminated with the deal once it is agreed to and signed by Obama. If the current deal goes through as is, (and I don't know all the facts) I look for our rating to drop. The downgrade will come from a couple groups but remember folks, we are still talking about the same group of clowns who made decisions that put not only their asses but Americas' ass in a hole. But then they willingly took our perfectly fine USA good old American tax dollars to get their asses out of the hole they dug, and now they are ready to turn around and have the b**s to say, we feel that America can't be trusted to pay it's bills so we're going to downgrade their credit. Our problem is a spending addiction.

more lies

This clown act of trying to solve the debt limit crisis has moved to a point where no matter what happens with this bill the end results will be the Republicans will be at fault. It does not matter if everything goes to hell or if anything goes to hell. But you can be certain of one fact for sure and that is, should the system begin to smooth out after something is passed no matter what that something may be, then you can bet your ass the Dems and Obama will crow like the newest barnyard rooster.

fed up in nm

Damn the sobs! This administration has brought us to this point with continued wasteful spending on every special interest that has walked in their doors with a hand out. Our problems will not end with these guys. This administration doesn't care enough to fix this problem because their idea is always the same, raise taxes so they can buy more dependents to vote liberal. Here the president is just now at 8:40 am on TV 7-29 trying to stir the troubles by getting the public to jam phone lines again knowing the lame stream media will broadcast the results of those calls in his favor. Past decisions have put us where we are and soon we will begin to reap the results of those decisions or non-decisions as the case may be either way It will not be pleasant.

Problems around the world are rising to a point where it will begin to boil over and we sit here with the media pulling our attention to these clowns in congress fighting over their ability to keep spending more money by raising more taxes. I'm to the point of just throwing up my hands and saying, go right ahead, you clowns will never learn. Probably not even after we all are forced into the street begging for handouts. Our eyes should also be watching what is happening over seas people not being sucked into this garbage going on everyday in the halls of government 24/7. When this is over and attention is finally forced to look overseas the cry will be, "How did that happen without us seeing it?". Well I can say for sure it won't be my fault, I've tried to get folks to be aware of the situation in Europe because it was and is a sign of the future of what takes place here in America. Man oh man I wish I was just able to go fish.

debt limited

Congress has bought up lots of goodies people, but they didn't tell us they were buying them and they didn't tell us they were buying them on credit. Now the bills are due. Hell that wouldn't be so bad, if we were just paying off the goodies they said they bought. But, that's not all of it friends not at all, because they actually bought lots of goodies claiming they were something different and worthwhile but many turned out as little worthless goodies. We are also talking huge purchases which means the costs will run well into the future and not just "little goodies", not at all. While we worried over that and was trying to pay off those bills, those little bastards went behind our backs and bought some more new goodies. Yep that's right people more goodies, and on top of all that, the little sob's after being all sneaky with us and now they want to get all up in our faces telling us, "So what's the big deal, you still have another credit card"? They say to us maybe they will see about getting a job later and give us a few dollars here and there on the bill, but then they want  to hold that other credit card so they can put part of their next bill on it. Sound like somebody you might want to trust?

Democrats say, "the Republicans are raising all this fuss about extending the debt limit because we have a Black president". They say, that must be the reason because they always just raised the debt limit in the past, and they didn't have all this fuss before. They say the fight over raising the debt limit is the fault of the TEA party because they're simply a bunch of racists and hate the president and want to kill Granny and starve children.

 I hope that we really are fighting this fight because the debt increase did always sail through in the past without a fight. Over the years too  many elected officials have allowed the wasteful spending to continue without trying to get our house in order. Because government kept spending wastefully the TEA party was formed and those TEA party members got behind certain individuals, who believed in smaller government and less taxes and helped them get elected. Now those same people who want to stop the wasteful spending are now very intent on fighting any increase in the debt ceiling while they try to gain concessions on future spending limits. Americans know that Republicans, TEA party members, and supporters of less government are not fighting because the president is black, this fight is taking place because the president and the Democrat party want to continue with the same plans for spending increases that brought this country to the brink the type of plans which are wrong for America. If this spending is not brought under control immediately this country will not be able to sustain our greatness. More taxes for congress to waste on new programs is not the answer.

john lewis said...

In case anyone might be interested, let it be known that Republicans are responsible for minority members of our society not being able to eat. Of course now,  that's according to John Lewis, democrat of Georgia. Yep that's right, he said because Republicans want people to have a photo ID to vote that they are taking food off the table of poor blacks and other minorities. John says poor blacks can't produce an ID because they can't afford an ID. But let's think for a moment. A person who desires to vote and realizing there is approximately 16 months till next election and 16 months before it's time to produce that ID, maybe we need to start figuring out just how hard it would be to raise money for an ID which on average would be less than $20.

That means over the next 16 month time frame that all these patriotic poor blacks and minorities must come to a decision of how to raise $1.25 each month from now till November of next year. Oh wow, such a dilemma! This is going to be really really tuff, having to raise one hundred and twenty five pennies each 30 day period. That means each week between now and November of 2012 those poor blacks and other minorities will have to figure some way to come up with almost 31 cents each and every week. This ordeal is going to be terrible, some might even go as far as calling it barbaric. 31 cents each week would mean each day between now and November 2012 there will be a need to figure some way to raise about five cents each day. Yep to think poor blacks and minorities will have to raise that amount of money, "a little over a whole nickle" every day, why I can see right now it's no wonder those Republicans are so much hated.

Those horrible Republicans. That is almost unimaginable to think anyone might have to come up with a nickle a day just to vote, five cents a day. Just to vote, just to be able to exercise a right and privilege that our founders and military of all branches both men and women valiantly fought and died giving citizens the right to vote.This is really getting me worried, this horror, the trauma Republicans are trying to put on all the poor blacks and other struggling individuals. To think that those mean Republicans would expect anybody to come up with five cents a day. Just unreal for anybody to think just because all those men and women fought and died in wars which gave freedom and voting rights to all, whites, blacks, and all minorities, to think it would be worth that kind of money. Of course some might almost assume a nickle would be a very small price, I know I do.. The nerve of those damnable Republicans, 5 cents the nerve!

more lies

Over and over we have heard the Democrats say that social security is fine and the Republicans don't need to worry about fooling with any plans to change or manage it for later years because this program, well because this program is just fine for at least twenty more years. But on the other hand we have Obama saying, "since it would be politically beneficial for him" now he can't promise the  money will be there to make social security payments. Hey Prez you can't have it both ways.

10 days to truth

Image by Getty Images via @daylife

Today the wires on cable crackled and popped with the Anthony Weiner story. This story revolves around a New York Congressman on the hot seat for sex-ting young women across the nation on America's quick message service "Twitter". For the past 10-12 days a story of the congressman sending out inappropriate messages, and pictures in various stage of dress and undress to young women has floated around Washington and every news organizations with a camera has been trying to run down the facts and get to the truth behind the photos.

Weiner has repeatedly stated the pics were not of him and that someone had hacked into his account planted the pictures and then sent them out to these women without his knowledge or permission. Finally when a reporter scored the evidence and was going to open the story wide he came to the microphones and admitted to news organizations he had done this himself. It took him ten day of lying before he did finally come to those microphones. There are odds and ends still left to answer before this story is actually brought to a close and before it ends we will see if the Dems have any morals left. The Dems were gung-ho with morals when a Repub was in a similar situation couple years back and all Dems were raising hell about getting that terrible immoral Repub out of congress.

Tonight on Ed Schultz the fire flew. Admitting Weiner had done what he said, guests almost came to blows over him admitting wrong-doing and leaving office. Liberals are quite alright with the nasty crap Weiner admitted doing and they were fine with him lying for two weeks about what he didn't do. They agreed that he was cheating on his wife and on and on over these faults of his. That said the guests couldn't understand why people and Repubs especially wanted him to resign. Because the guests were under the impression that without Weiner being found guilty of using his office phone on company time then basically there was nothing for him to be convicted of and therefore no need for him to quit. What?

When this country was formed our representatives had morals and character and would never have allowed a member to do anything near what this guy did and dare remain in their midst. They held themselves to be righteous men and for anyone of them to do the things mentioned here would not have entered their minds. This country has lost its way and so many of our people have lost all their morals. With all the things Weiner did and admitted doing wrong, Eds' guests could only bring themselves to find a problem with it, "only" if he was found guilty of using the phone on company time or some similar nonsensical, off the wall, line of crap. And they wonder why the people have so little faith or respect in congressmen today. Gee I wonder.

There is no greater event taking place in this world than what is transpiring in the Middle East at this time. Make no mistake, everyone needs to watch and see who the players are and what positions they take in the coming weeks and months. This will have a profound effect on the entire world and it will not contain itself to the same old players or the same old rules. The actions being broadcast around the world most often depict excited individuals proclaiming this new found desire to embrace freedom. And I can say with certainty, there are some within those groups who honestly expect, once the tyrants are removed from office they can begin to enjoy the privileges under just laws such as those we enjoy here in America. As much certainty as I have knowing there are those who expect great changes for their betterment of life, within that same certainty I know that is not what will take place. These events are not guided by a bunch of kids wanting to buy I Pods and vote.

The events unfolding in the Middle East are being directed by people in high positions in the back-ground and these events are a prelude to the Real desire of an Arab world interested in the total extermination of the Jewish people from the state of Israel and what it represents in this world. This desire to destroy the Jews began a long time ago slowly much like a cancer spreading and growing uncontrollably. This cancer will not be cured by any method of man.

Today we had the PLO giving a Q&A with a very favorable and friendly audience. The speaker and question-airs did all in their power to degrade Israel and especially Netanyahu. The PLO speaker also slapped down the Congress and Senate for having Netanyahu give a speech to the congress. Ms Ashrawi condemned Americans as well in her Q&A. This woman, Hanan Ashrawi who is a long time member of the PLO, let it be known that come September if the US vetoed the UN resolution recognizing a Palestinian state she wasn't sure what would take place in Israel or maybe that should be take place against Israel. From her demeanor she made it pretty clear it wouldn't be peaceful marches in the street but something much more robust.

America and Israel are brothers and have a special bond made long ago. A war was fought and people died across the land. First by the hundreds then by the thousands and then by the hundred of thousands. Finally at wars' end prison camps are found and inside horror streams out. And as the world recoils in horror at the atrocities committed against the Jews the story is told and then the promises are made to never let this happen again. A promise is made to one another, country to country, and even to God himself with great sorrow and humility. But as life continues we move on with our lives and  time moves on past one more horror. But with time passing  bad memories of death slowly fades and we forget and the horror fades and then the pictures fade slowly from memory, but do they really?

Open your eyes, look again because the horror is returning, those same people that were pulled from the camps of Auschwitz are once again being put into the sights of those ready for them to die again and this time they plan to be sure. The Palestinians are saying the same things that so many Arabs are saying today and that's, "death to Israel". Then you have the Palestinian TVs showing cartoons doing what? I'll tell you what, they are showing cartoon characters threaten and kill the Jew while telling the children that Jews are filth and vermin. Yes the Palestinians are ready for peace with Israel all the while continuing to teach their kids to hate the Jew and want to Kill the Jew. The same cry is being heard from Egypt, Tunisia, Yemen, and Saudi Arabia. The Muslim Brotherhood is hard at work turning the Middle East into the Caliphate they have long dreamed about.

saturday looms

This country should proclaim loudly our support for Israel but sadly it seems too late. In two days Saturday the 28th of May 2011 will begin the beginning of the open and visible destruction of Israel. Movement which has been slowly rumbling in the Middle East will now become louder with every passing day and was written of thousands of years ago and this date when Egypt fully opens the border into the West Bank,  known by Israelis as Judea and Samaria, will be the mark in the sand which so many previously said would never again take place. When this border crossing is operational you can expect weaponry to flow like water. Thousands of weapons made it through this area when the Egyptians had it closed but now with this new found friendship between Iran and Egypt you can expect this traffic of weapons to increase.

This will be another step along the path of Arabs to to wipe Israel from the map. There will be more attempts in other areas along the border with Israel for groups to make illegal entry into Israel. The "floatillias", which were never condemned for what they were by the lame stream press, will once again take groups of their "peaceful demonstrators" back into Israeli waters in an attempt to bring condemnation against Israel from the worlds news organizations.when people are killed. And there will be people killed.

You can also be assured that suicide bombers will use these crossings as a vehicle to showcase their displeasure and rise the ire of countries around the world when they are killed for attacking Israelis by crossing borders. As usual the Israelis will be blamed for using excessive force and of course the world will  condemn them for their actions. All the usual suspects will be involved in the attacks on Israel and as usual Israel will stand alone. Can anyone remember what happened to the Israelis in Germany? Are there any who even care what happens to Israel today even after knowing what transpired? Think about this my friends if you fail to stand up for Israel just remember, it can happen to you next. Do not ignore their plight again.

uh-oh now what

Image via Wikipedia

I don't think there is any doubt of my belief in, and my support for Israel. I've had strong feelings for that country since I was a young man. I have had a long time belief in what the bible said concerning how Israel was to be treated. But many people fail to grasp a fact so often overlooked and that fact is Israel and Jew are two different terms. The Jews are but one tribe of the twelve which made up Israel, and basically this one tribe makes up the current state of Israel. I believe the other tribes of Israel migrated over the Caucasus Mountain range and settled Europe while many made their way to America. I honestly believe if Americans could trace their lineage back to that time, many if not most all Americans, would find their heritage began within those twelve tribes.

My thoughts and concern for Israel is deeper than one who worries about one with similar beliefs, but more along the lines of a  family member. I think our faith stemming from the same book of God is not coincidental. In my thinking these facts will not change and make up the foundation of what I believe today. World events are tied  to what has been written, or vice-versa, and given to all people so they may read and know what to expect in the future. There are interpretations and there are interpretations. That statement holds true if a person takes it upon himself to do that interpreting rather than do what was meant and that is to just let what is written interpret itself in other verses. Thats what is supposed to be done

I suppose from the beginning of this blog I've known where it would lead eventually and that lead is trying to find what lies over the horizon which is in my own beliefs, in my heart. That task now lies in my ability to take the facts of everyday life and apply them through my beliefs, then transfer them into words and In the end I hope to better understand this day and time not only for myself but maybe even for others. Just an idea...

wrong words mr president

Image by an0nym0n0us via Flickr

I will make this short. This statement by the President on redrawing borders for Israel creating a new Palestinian  state will only create more problems. The people that hate Israel and want to see their destruction will use his statement as approval for more attacks in the future and of course there are those who have never needed any type of encouragement to attack Israel. Now with this statement seeming to side with the Palestinians cry to return to the old 67 borders, this will now give more steam to those looking to destroy Israel and those of the population who can be manipulated to follow the crowd. You can look for more uprisings along the border with Israel as Hamas and others attempt crossings.  An attempt to make rioting appear tied to the Arab Spring demonstrations may be used to blur that line hiding their real hatred and reasons. This won't be kids demonstrating for idealistic changes this will only be more of the old hatred and desire of the Arabs to destroy from the face of the earth an entire group of people. Picture shows United states of Palestine.

not again people

I hope today after the President's meeting with the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that perhaps the eyes of some may have been opened. For too long I think a majority of people have taken for granted Israel is responsible for not negotiating a settlement in the Palestinian problem. The president wants Israel to give up more land.  If Israel  returned the remainder of lands won from previous wars and conflicts with the Arabs it would open themselves up for almost certain annihilation. I'm not only talking about the 67 war.which so many are aware of but other conflicts and wars which were fought and won and then settled by Israel returning some of those same lands. But to return areas like the Golan would allow no possibility for Israel to defend themselves because of the strategic position of that area.

Netanyahu however made it quite clear that Israel could not and would not agree to return to those borders. He also brought up the fact this would mean having to negotiate with a terror organization by the name of Hamas, giving back the Golan Heights which overlooks the valley of tears, would be like putting your enemy in a tower just outside your backyard fence. The focus of Israels' enemies is not to remove the Jews from the land of Israel but to remove the Jews from the world. Nothing this side of total destruction and their annihilation will ever satisfy the enemies of Israel. And given a chance they will do all in their power to do just that, to eliminate the very existence of our good friend and ally Israel completely. .

arab spring my ass

The president is due to give a speech on Middle east policies within the hour and I hope he projects an attitude of support for Israel rather than be dismissive as when Netanyahu came to visit. There needs to be strength and understanding in his speech. The strength and belief should say that Israel has a right to exist and that Israel cannot and must not continue this land for peace scam which has produced nothing but more horror and attacks. This idea failed and hasn't accomplished anything except to decrease the distance that Hamas rockets have to travel to strike Israel. From it's conception this absurd idea of land for peace has benefited the enemies of Israel and no one else. Many of us out here know that there will be no peace in Israel and with each failed negotiation the fact becomes more clear.

Deal with the truth people there is an attempt to construct a caliphate by certain countries/people and regardless of Facebook, Twitter, or cell phones, the fact remains that Iran, the brotherhood, and others with this caliphate dream will make promises tell every lie they can and smile but underneath in their hearts is hate and they will continue to teach their children to hate Israel and that their paradise lies in death by killing the Jew. The actions which the world thinks is democracy taking place are fooled. The "democracy" will continue and bring about something far different than any grand idea that could possibly be dreamed. I fear that Israel will be used once again by those looking to acquire far more than any, "land for peace deal".. America needs to stand with Israel but as I've said many times before I do not think Obama will stand by Israel as a strong partner. Look around people, remember their past and remember history.

Israel attacked again

Image by Getty Images via @daylife

With the news of the Middle East in Libya Syria  and Egypt still drawing  most of the attention of the lame stream media it is no wonder so many people are unaware of the  increased dangers facing  Israel.  The protest which happened Sunday the 15th. The Arabs refer to this special day as Nakba Day,(Catastrophe)A day of mourning to Palestinians which marks the founding of Israel back in 1948.  Now just about all Arab countries are publicly calling for an  end to Israels  existence. This pie in the sky talk of some Arab Spring is bull shit and nothing more than the final stages in the throwing off of current leaders, which up till now have held back this movement of genocide against Israel and will lead to the formation of an Islamic Caliphate which may try to set their headquarters in Jerusalem itself.


Israel will have to call for help in solving this problem of people being instigated to violate the borders of Israel. Knowing that Israel will hold back their major force when confronting the border bashers, you can count on Hezbollah, Hamas, Turkey, and Syria to continue instigating these confrontations against Israel hoping to force Israel into doing something that will bring world condemnation down on their heads once again. Like Iran their hope is not just to return to the borders of 67 but as stated earlier but the very elimination of Israel itself. Obama could help this situation by standing up for Israel and also help bring pressure to bear against not just Syria but all the other countries in that area but he will not do that because his feelings seem to fall more in line with the PLO than with Israel.


The people trying to cross into Israel bring to mind a danger closer to home and that's the border between Mexico and the United States. Our Southern border is being compromised. Not only are there Mexican illegals sneaking into the country looking for work, there's the drug pushers with their cartels pushing death across the border and into cities that span the entire length and breadth of America. America is facing another problem, "The Dangerous Triangle". This is the area where Paraguay, Brazil, and Argentina come together. This area is filled with people from the Middle East and people from this area are making their way into the United States coming in among the Mexican illegals. I will have more about this problem in future posts.

border bombs

Trouble is brewing on our Southern border and the trouble makers are coming from the Middle East and building their power structure along the border of Mexico. Iran can be thanked for these soon to be noticed terrorists because they will come across our border and with them you can expect the same thing as other nations have faced. Look for car  bombing by the cartels to increase and those type of actions will move North across into the United States because Iran has already stated this is their plan.

Obama needs to wake up. Our congress needs to wake up. America needs to wake up. This is a serious situation and just as it happened in Israel and other nations that have given support to America it is a f act that these people will come into America if something is not done and done soon.

budget battle

Image via Wikipedia

Steve Pearce congressman from New Mexico spoke on the house floor just a few minutes ago about Operation Redwing and the heroes of Seal Team 10 and a horrific firefight that went down in the mountains of Afghanistan on a late night in June of 05. This story showed the courage of four very brave men and how three of them they gave their lives for this country. Marcus Luttrell was this lone survivor in this operation and thankfully was able to survive and retell this very important story. The courage of Marcus Luttrell and his friends and bravery shown by these men should give pride and a reason to all Americans why our military is so great. Mr Pearce told this story to show Democrats the military is very worthy off getting their pay even should the Government be shutdown.

Steve Cohen Democrat form Tennessee immediately came to floor afterwards and basically slammed the speech by Pearce calling it a scam and not worthy of being given on the floor and that it wasn't a worthwhile reason to include the pay for military. I was so shocked at the Cohen response I am unable to recall the exact words but I know surely the pundits on TV will have this speech on tonight if anyone at all is paying attention to whats being said on the floor. And if there are people watching then it should bring a backlash to the Democrats for so flippantly dismissing  this hero.

The lies being told on the house floor over this bill makes it hard for me to sit through without wanting to pull my hair out. Actual out and out lies being spewed with no shame being shown yet when it is finished probably the only place that will replay and explain those lies will be Fox News. The rest of the stations or news organizations  will look on this as one of those, "us and them", kind of debates and will not let the truth be told. Something has to be done by the citizens in this country. They must wake up or this country will lose the what is left of America.

is it now

Image by Jeff and Meredith Purganan via Flickr

The TV is on and I'm watching Hannity on Fox News and we have breaking news from the White House and the President gives a speech on how far/close the political sides are with coming together on the budget for last year. The press-room is filled with reporters and shortly after the President speaks the pundits will proceed with their view on what is happening with the budget and who is at fault. Many of the people across  America also will talk among themselves over the same subject and each will lay blame for the problem on the other as who caused this great debt.

What in hell is wrong with this picture? How can this Be? How can a nation that has accomplished as much as America has in the short time we have been a country have the president standing before the nation discussing the reasons we need to spend more money bringing our nation further and further into debt? How could our President be Standing before us asking us to give him more money to spend and asking for this money without showing one drop of shame for his actions? People, how in Gods name has America gotten itself into such a huge amount of debt? This nation now finds itself in more debt than all the combined debt we have had in the past.

 This country should be ashamed for allowing our Government officials to take this country down the way they have. This is shameful. How has this happened? It happened because we failed to maintain the character of a people of faith. Regardless of the nay-sayers, this country was incubated in the values of Judeo-Christian belief and all the time this nation displayed those values America prospered. As the years have passed our complacency has taken the place of those values and God has been pushed from our town squares, our schools, and in some cases our very churches. Now we have changed and man has put his faith in man, but man is deceitful above all.  The question was asked of Jesus, 'What will be the sign of thy coming?" The chapter is 24 in the book of Matthew.

events unfolding

Around the world people are in desperate times with the economy of the world being affected every time Wall Street sneezes. Events are unfolding in the Middle East and countries like Syria, Tunisia, Iran, Libya, Egypt erupting with violence in the streets and we must not forget Israel where all the hate stems from. This story has been in the making for generations and the time is at hand when people finally realize a story which began over two thousand years ago is working its way through to completion. The signs have been given and the story told. The book is there for all to read and unless they do read they will be left wondering where this story leads.

Politicians have given the world a one sided view on what is taking place in the Middle East but when you read what's being said and compare it to what is actually happening you will see the story doesn't match with real life. This story of what would take place in the Middle East was written long ago and for years each generation has faced life saying this is the generation spoken of in the Bible. That time spoken of, is the time which described events destined to take place in those last days. The story isn't a daydream or a far-fetched or a far-flung paranormal story dreamed up in a movie studio in California.

This story unfolding before our eyes is the fulfillment of that story talked about some two thousand years ago about a time to come when very certain and particular things would take place. The story was given so people would know the season this special event was to take place but not the exact time of the event and that man was not in charge. We are in the season of this event. Israel is in trouble and shortly will lose their control of East Jerusalem to the Arabs. It may be through Iran and the bomb directly or it could be by Hamas rising up and increasing their strikes with rocket fire but the time for these events are at our doorstep. Keep watching Israel and your doubt will be removed.

mans struggles

I listen to people in the news business talking about the democracy taking over the Middle East. I find it so unbelievable that well read journalists would be as gullible to think democracy would actually grow in a part of the world that has only known sharia law given to them by the Koran. Democracy is a system rooted in choice and equality and these two things totally oppose the Muslim teachings of sharia law and therefore are incompatible with democracy.

The fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan has taken the lives of thousands of brave American since that fateful strike on 9-11. The population of a country once unified by a decision to retaliate against terrorists now stands divided. People are divided over ideals and after spending billions of dollars on a conflict which has lasted a decade. But along with the strife which developed between Americans that division has cost us something else. The enemy now sees that America has lost the pride in its power and now the enemy has taken advantage of that of loss of pride and they no longer fear we will strike into their homeland..

A stir began that fateful day when those buildings fell in New York and now has spread to the corners of the world. Today people of all walks of life watch the Middle East but their eyes are on the US and they wonder. They wonder why a nation once so great as America now stands hardly more than a pale imitation of it's former greatness. America is standing with its head bowed as if in shame while nations of terror hold them at bay with only words, words of threats. The world and this nation has embarked on a journey of profound importance and it will hold lasting consequence. Mankind holds the potential  for world destruction through nuclear ability  and should those weapons which so many nations have at their disposal be used then that will be the last war of mankind. With those thoughts in mind, more so now than at any other time in our history man needs to turn his heart to God and pray, and do so fervently.

There is in South America a new union, (UNASUR) that is combining with other unions in SA to assure economic strength through trade and perhaps combine strength through their military. This leaves me not so sure of this latest Obama deal with Brazil. The EU has been involved with South America developing plans for economic development for some time now long before Obama got into the picture anyway. With energy needs being as important as they are a close relationship between the EU and South America would be a very good thing even as China has been very serious in their dealings with South America in their effort to secure as many rare earth minerals as possible, China needs energy also.

At this particular time for Obama to take our tax money and finance the energy outfit Petrobras in Brazil while we are left holding the bag with a no drilling ban in the same Gulf that Brazil will be drilling in is more than wrong and it leaves a sour taste in my mouth. Obama used the Sarah Palin term, "drill baby drill" to make lite of our energy situation and making lite of the thousands of American oil field workers who are now unemployed due to the Obama freeze on drilling. We have oil in this country and we need to get it out of the ground and use it until something better comes along but to hold the knife to our own damn throat is beyond amateur.

 In Israel five members of the Fogel family including three children age 11, 3, and a baby were found shot and stabbed to death in the West Bank settlement of Itamar. The terror group al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade have claimed responsibility for the attack. Israel in response has decided to build 500 housing units in West Bank settlements and of course this is raising all  manners of hell in the West Bank and will stir more attacks from terrorists in the contested area and throughout the Middle East. They will never stop the attacks regardless of the response from Israel.

I have thought a lot about Israel and the situation with the Palestinians over the years. Here lately with all the turmoil in the Middle East and this latest actions of rebels turning against leaders and then this latest action of the US/UN/ Libya, I've come to the conclusion this has probably set the stage for the UN to once again call for some type of action against Israel. The UN with Obama in agreement made the claim that Kudaffi was going to bring harm to all the people in Libya that disagreed with him and because of those threats of harm the UN would bring in air strikes. The UN could come up with  the same type of call to garner support and then make demands of Israel. It may not be the same claims against Israel as against Libya but with all the Israeli haters in the UN it would not take much to get a resolution of some type against Israel.

I do not trust the UN, they have never been fair when it comes to Israel and when an organization like the UN can give legitimacy to people like Chavez or Ahmadinajad and then in the same breath claim Israel is the one responsible for all the terror in that area. I just find that a bit  much to swallow. I hope I am wrong but the UN has been looking for something that would bring the members especially the US together on a vote against Israel. With Obama and his positive view on the UN they may think now is the time to come up with something. Just think back to when all the press went crazy with the "Peace Flotilla". That was the latest batch of crazies that got together and had plenty of backing from other kinds of nuts from all over the world which ended up being a bunch of total left-wing nuts that hate Israel. So the idea of the UN taking the Libya action, and then incorporating this latest problem with Palestinians and Israelis into the mix as an effort to stir up more hatred against Israel would not surprise me in the least. In fact I would be more than surprised if they didn't do it. There have been many in the UN and many people out of the UN thats been working for a long time against Israel and trying to find a way to destroy or at least nullify them. They may feel as if this is that time.
