Senate Slumber Party

Much has been made of the Senate's "all nighter" Tuesday/Wednesday. Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid (D-NV), called it a filibuster but I contend it was a "bust."

Whatever happened to the filibuster depicted in "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington?" Jimmy Stewart talked so long he started losing his voice and almost ruined his health.

I contend that our Senate is nothing but a bunch of "pansies." I wonder how much the taxpayers had to pay for this show of nothingness. We know that we got to pay for pizza, wings and Chick-Fil-A and cots for them to sleep on. Sound like a slumber party to me; wonder if they got popcorn, too? What they called cots I call roll-a-way beds. A cot is what our service people have to sleep on... I grew up knowing them as "Army cots." There certainly isn't a mattress on them.

Senate Assistant Majority Leader, Dick Durbin (D-IL), made comments regarding the how Senate showed our service people that they are willing to sacrifice,too. I have no doubt that there isn't a military person in the world that would like to sacrifice the way the Senate did Tuesday night. This was a tremendous sacrifice on the Senate's part... they got a little extra rest before starting their five (5) week summer vacation. Just one more reason why I keep saying...

Don't re-elect incumbents!

Vaclav Havel Quotes

(Czech Playwright and President of Czechoslovakia (1989-1992), born 1936)

Anyone who takes himself too seriously always runs the risk of looking ridiculous; anyone who can consistently laugh at himself does not.

The real test of a man is not when he plays the role that he wants for himself, but when he plays the role destiny has for him.

Reid Threatens to Keep Senate Up All Night, Republicans Yawn

Monday , July 16, 2007By Major Garrett and Trish Turner

FC1

WASHINGTON — 

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has threatened to keep the Senate awake all night Tuesday to protest GOP blocking tactics on moves to compel U.S. troop withdrawals from Iraq.

Senate Republican leaders, alerted to Reid's plans on Monday, said they have the votes to keep the president's surge policy in place, at least for now, and called Reid's up-all-night gambit a stunt that wouldn't change any minds.

Senior Democratic leadership aides said that Reid was planning a Tuesday all-mightier — complete with roll-away beds — to draw public attention to GOP demands that any changes to Iraq policy carry a 60-vote majority.

"Is this a publicity stunt? Yes," a senior Democratic aide told FOX News. "This is the only way we know to highlight their complete ignorance of the will of the people!"

Republicans said they've applied that standard for months on Iraq policy changes and aren't about the change now, especially when recent GOP defections have given Democrats bipartisan majorities on troop drawdowns and other policy changes.

Reid will seek a test vote Wednesday on an amendment by Sens. Carl Levin of Michigan and Jack Reed of Rhode Island to begin troop withdrawals late this year and have most combat forces out of Iraq by spring 2008.

Republicans predict that amendment will fall well short of the 60 votes required and probably attract no more than 55 votes, possibly fewer. Other non-binding policy changes are expected as well, but nothing is expected to garner the required 60 votes.

"The much-discussed Republican revolt has yet to materialize," a senior GOP aide said.

Chosen People

Deuteronomy 7:6
For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.

1 Kings 3:8
Your servant is here among the people you have chosen, a great people, too numerous to count or number.

2 Chronicles 6:5
'Since the day I brought my people out of Egypt, I have not chosen a city in any tribe of Israel to have a temple built for my Name to be there, nor have I chosen anyone to be the leader over my people Israel.

2 Chronicles 6:6
But now I have chosen Jerusalem for my Name to be there, and I have chosen David to rule my people Israel.'

Isaiah 45:4
For the sake of Jacob my servant, of Israel my chosen, I summon you by name and bestow on you a title of honor, though you do not acknowledge me.

Colossians 3:12
Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.

1 Peter 2:9
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.

1 Chronicles 16:36
Praise be to the LORD, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Then all the people said "Amen" and "Praise the LORD."

(emphasis added; New International Version; BibleGateway.com)

Just a few examples.

Iran Targets Israel

Diplomatic sources in Syria have stated that Iran has 600 targets in Israel and will strike if any of their nuclear sites are attacked by Israel.

I have stated many times that I support the Bible's stand on Israel... Israel is God's chosen people. The U.S, all Christian nations and all Christians are obligated to protect Israel from any and all threats.

Iran must be stopped from having nuclear weapons! The United Nations should begin with placing complete and total embargos on Iran shutting down all Iranian commerce. Secondly, if the doesn't get Ahmadinejad's attention then Senator Joseph Lieberman's alternative should be accepted by the U.S. and citizens... We should bomb all nuclear sites and Tehran.

As Christians we must accept that the Iranian nuclear intent, leading Ayatollahs and Ahmadinejad are evil and must be destroyed in order to protect Israel. The Bible is quite clear that we must protect and support "God's chosen people."

God's blessings on those who love and protect Israel.

Free Advertising

I bet Continental Express is reeling in the free advertising they have been getting from the media.

After removing a mother and her 18 month old from an airplane last month they are getting some of what I call "Good old Free Advertising." While the attendant was doing her "spiel" the 18 month old was saying "Bye, Bye, plane." The attendant instructed the mother to medicate (sedate) the baby. I'm sure the attendant thought the 18 month old was a "terrorist" and making "threats!"

If you travel via airplane you have to expect babies on them. I think the attendant and Continental Express overreacted to this one!f

Vatican Declares Catholicism Only True Church

Tuesday, the Vatican released a document that said the Catholic Church is the one true church and other Christian bodies shouldn't be called churches. It has been praised by some and condemned by others. I am an evangelical Christian but I have many friends and family members who are Catholic, however, I have to join the group that is condemning this document and statement.

I believe this attitude is divisive and confirms the Pope's intolerance. This isn't the first time Pope Benedict XVI has shown his intolerance. In 2000, while serving Pope John Paul II on faith matters, Benedict (then known as Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger) issued a controversial document making the same absolutist claims. The Vatican claims the statement was to encourage "fruitful" discussions.

Looking at the Catholic Church from the outside and without much knowledge of the beliefs, personally, I think there are some things that Catholics do in the name of worship that I believe are sins and in direct conflict with the teachings of the Bible. A few of the things are kneeling or bowing to the crucifix and praying to Mary, the mother of Jesus, and to various deceased popes and saints.

However, as an Evangelical Christian, I believe that all those who confess their sins and accept Jesus in their heart as their personal Lord and Saviour will go to heaven.

Thomas said to Him, “Lord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way?”

Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. John 14:5-6 (New King James Version; BibleGateway.com)

Live Earth 07.07.07

The media is making it sound like Live Earth was a great success. It is impressive that they got such knowledgeable experts to speak on the environment and global warming. People like Leonardo DiCaprio, Yusuf (Cat Stevens in the old days), Cameron Diaz, Melissa Ethridge, Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood, Black Eyed Peas, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Beastie Boys, Pussycat Dolls, Genesis, John Legend, Duran Duran, and so many other internationally known experts.

You guessed it... I'm not convinced of Gore's "Global Warning" is real. I was always taught that we are coming out of the last ice age and there has been many ice ages. Could it possibly be that the earth is going through a normal cycle?

I'm not saying that carbon emissions shouldn't be controlled. However, I think the priority should be reducing our dependence on oil, especially foreign oil. The sooner this country can get away from importing oil the better we will all be.

Did You Know?

This has been around for a while, but was sent to me again by a friend. I decided it was worth posting.

DID YOU KNOW?

As you walk up the steps to the building which houses the U.S Supreme Court you can see near the top of the building a row of the world's law givers and each one is facing one in the middle who is facing forward with a full frontal view .. it is Moses and he is holding the Ten Commandments!

DID YOU KNOW?

As you enter the Supreme Court courtroom, the two huge oak doors have the Ten Commandments engraved on each lower portion of each door.

DID YOU KNOW?

As you sit inside the courtroom, you can see the wall, right above where the Supreme Court judges sit, a display of the Ten Commandments!

DID YOU KNOW?

There are Bible verses etched in stone all over the Federal Buildings and Monuments in Washington , D.C.

DID YOU KNOW?

James Madison, the fourth president, known as "The Father of Our Constitution" made the following statement:

"We have staked the whole of all our political institutions upon the capacity of mankind for self-government, upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves, to control ourselves, to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God."

DID YOU KNOW?

Patrick Henry, that patriot and Founding Fathers of our country said:

"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded not by religionists but by Christians, not on religions but on the Gospel of Jesus Christ".

DID YOU KNOW?

Every session of Congress begins with a prayer by a paid preacher, whose salary has been paid by the taxpayer since 1777.

DID YOU KNOW?

Fifty-two of the 55 founders of the Constitution were members of the established orthodox churches in the colonies.

DID YOU KNOW?

Thomas Jefferson worried that the Courts would overstep their authority and instead of interpreting the law would begin making law, an oligarchy, the rule of few over many.

DID YOU KNOW?

The very first Supreme Court Justice, John Jay, said:

"Americans should select and prefer Christians as their rulers."

How, then, have we gotten to the point that everything we have done for 220 years in this country is now suddenly wrong and unconstitutional? Let’s put it around the world and let the world see and remember what this great country was built on.

It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God. Therefore, it is very hard to understand why there is such a mess about having the Ten Commandments on display or "In God We Trust" on our money and having God in the Pledge of Allegiance. Why don't we just tell the other 14% to Sit Down and SHUT UP!!!

The President's Power to Pardon

The Constitution of the United States

Article 2, Section 2

The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States, and of the Militia of the several States, when called into the actual Service of the United States; he may require the Opinion, in writing, of the principal Officer in each of the executive Departments, upon any Subject relating to the Duties of their respective Offices, and he shall have Power to grant Reprieves and Pardons for Offences against the United States, except in Cases of Impeachment.

I didn't see anything that distinguishes between Republican and Democrats. Apparently, an awful lot of liberal democrats think only democrat President have this power. When Republican Presidents exercise this power it is crony-ism. When Democrat Presidents exercise this power it is a service to the country and righting a wrong... like pardoning drug traffickers such as Roger Clinton or felons on the lam like Marc Rich. At least if Hillary is elected President she won't be able to pardon "Slick Willy" from impeachment that the House of Representative convicted.

Don't re-elect incumbents! Or quasi-incumbents!

Another Opinion on the Clintons and Pardons

Do the Clintons Now Support Jail Time for Perjurers?

"Scooter" Libby

Although I am opposed to the commuting of Scooter Libby's sentenced incarceration term the President has the right and power to do it.

Leading Democrats including Presidential candidates are expressing outrage, "crony-ism," and Bush arrogance, etc. I can't remember but it is probably about the same expressions of political emotions the Republicans expressed at the end of Bill Clinton's term we he granted pardons to his political cronies including Marc Rich who had fled to Switzerland.

Senator Schumer (D-NY) called the commutation "Bush's disregard for the law." Senator Clinton (D-NY) called it "crony-ism." Senator Clinton would certainly know about crony-ism considering her husband was impeached and granted record numbers of pardons at the end of his term.

Here is just a few of Bill Clinton's pardons, not commutations, granted in January 2001:

  • CISNEROS, Henry G., False statement (misdemeanor)
  • CLINTON, Roger, Conspiracy to distribute cocaine, Distribution of cocaine
  • GREEN, Pincus, Switzerland, Wire fraud, mail fraud, racketeering, racketeering conspiracy, criminal forfeiture, income tax evasion, and trading with Iran in violation of trade embargo
  • McDOUGAL, Susan H., Mail fraud, aiding and abetting in misapplication of Small Business Investment Corporation funds, aiding and abetting in making false entries, aiding and abetting in making false statements
  • RICH, Marc, Switzerland, Wire fraud, mail fraud, racketeering, racketeering conspiracy, criminal forfeiture, income tax evasion, and trading with Iran in violation of trade embargo
  • SHAW, Patricia Campbell Hearst, Wilton, Connecticut, Armed bank robbery and using a firearm during a felony
  • SYMINGTON, John Fife, III, False statements to federally insured financial institutions, wire fraud, attempted extortion, and false statements in bankruptcy proceeding

For a complete list of the hundreds of pardon granted (not commutations) by "Slick Willie" (William Jefferson Clinton) go to: http://www.usdoj.gov/pardon/clintonpardon_grants.htm

Crony-ism, just one more reason I keep advocating:

Bill of Rights - First Amendment

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

How do you get "separation of church and state" out of this? How does this convert to "no prayers in school?"

To me, what this says is Government is not to make laws restricting Church not shall they restrict the people from practicing religion.

Although the Supreme Court ruled against school prayer, that restricts schools and teachers from conducting prayers in our schools and school sponsored functions. Few people, including school boards, administrators and teachers realize that students are permitted to pray at school and school functions and can actually lead prayers. If school officials forbid student lead prayer it is a violation of the First Amendment and the Supreme Court ruling.

Judges who have the opinion that the Constitution is what they interpret it to be are wrong and have no place on the bench, whether Supreme or District. There job is to interpret the law, but not to make law. When you look at the history of this country and our founding fathers it is obvious that their intent was not to keep prayer out of schools.

Out next President and Congress should be looking to appoint and consent to judges who are willing to revisit this issue in a realistic world.

This is one more reason I keep saying...

Kennedy on Immigration Bill

Ted Kennedy has said that he doesn't understand why the American public would want a "broken border." That isn't the only thing he doesn't understand. He just doesn't get it!

The American public wants the existing laws enforced! Build the fence, hire the border guards, deport the illegals and not just the Mexican illegal immigrants. It isn't xenophobia... it's the desire to have the American laws enforced.

Many Senators have said they got more response on this issue than anything since Clinton's impeachment.

Mr. Kennedy, just listen to your constituents and the American public!

Immigration Bill Vote

Due to a vote this morning in the Senate the "Comprehensive Immigration Bill" is dead, again. Proponents have vowed to bring it back to life but it probably can't be done during this term and possible not before elections.

The following is a list of the 46 Senators who voted to give this country to illegal aliens. Each of these people should be targeted when they come up for re-election and voted out of office. Each has decided that what 80% of the American public wants is not what they, personally, want. They have decided not to represent the American public but represent illegal aliens.

Xenophobia

Google Web Definition

  • fear or dislike of strangers or the unknown, often used to describe nationalistic political beliefs and movements
  • intolerance of the unfamiliar.
  • irrational fear of strangers.
  • unreasonable hatred or fear of foreigners.
  • fear or hatred of foreigners or of those who are different
  • a fear of that which is foreign, especially of strangers or foreign peoples. literally means fear of strangers. It is a form of prejudice.
  • Fear and loathing or hatred of strangers. Often applied to members of other races, ethnic groups or nationalities.
  • hatred and fear of foreigners or members of some ethnic group other than one's own. an irrational fear of foreigners or strangers
  • Xenophobia denotes a phobic attitude towards strangers or of the unknown and comes from the Greek words ξένος (xenos), meaning "foreigner", "stranger", and φÏŒβος (phobos), meaning "fear". The term is typically used to describe fear or dislike of foreigners, but racism in general is sometimes described as a form of xenophobia. In science fiction, it has come to mean 'fear of extraterrestrial things. ...

This is the liberal left's description of those 80% of American who are opposed to the "Comprehensive Immigration Bill." I can honestly say that none of these describe how I feel about illegal aliens. I just think they should abide by the laws of the United States and enter this country legally. I actually think Mexico has it right... illegal aliens have NO rights and cannot occupy any type of job and legal or illegal aliens aren't allowed to hold elective office!

Any American politician that supports this bill falls into my category of...

Tony Blair and the Middle East

Former British Prime Minister is set to take on the responsibility of Middle East Envoy. He has stated that he is committed to a "Two State Solution."

In 2003 the United States, Russia, European Union and United Nations issued a "road map" to Israeli-Palestinian peace. Although little progress has been made on implementing the "road map" one of the provisions is to divide Jerusalem. This portion of the "road map" is completely unacceptable and should be unacceptable to all Christians. Israel and Jerusalem belong to the Jews. God gave these lands to his people and they must remain.

Any American politician who supports this provision is not a Christian and does not serve the interests of the American public.

Comprehensive Immigration Bill

"We will secure our borders, give amnesty to illegal aliens and penalize businesses that employ illegal aliens." This is what we were told in 1985/86 when the existing legislation was passed by Congress. Does it sound familiar? It is the same thing we are being told now about the new Comprehensive Immigration bill.

Recent polls show that as many as 80% of Americans don't want this bill. The polls even show that many legal aliens don't want this bill because they entered this country legally and it took years in many cases. These same legal aliens have expressed concern over what will happen to their own wages when the 12-20 million illegals are granted amnesty.

I am certainly not opposed to immigration; my ancestors immigrated to this country from Europe. I just feel like it ought to be fair for all those wanting to enter this country. Those who have been waiting to enter for months and years should receive priority over those here illegally.

I am astonished that our representative in the U.S. Senate are not listening to what the American public wants. A recent Gallop poll shows that Congress as a 14% approval rating. Not only is it lower than President Bush's approval rating, it is the lowest rating for Congress since Gallop has been doing poll.

Kansas Senator Sam Brownback has said he will vote for the bill. If he ever had a chance at being elected President, it is certainly dead the minute he casts a vote for this bill. Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell is still taking a "wait and see" attitude. Pressure needs to be applied to him and all Senators.

Any Senator that votes for this bill must be targeted at the next election and voted out of office. These Senators are supposed to be representing us, not their own interests and power plays! That is why I continue to plead...

Don't re-elect incumbents!

Lott - Feinstein

Senator Trent Lott (R-MS) figured out why the American public doesn't want the Comprehensive Immigration bill... "Congress sits on the hill and comes up with great bills and forgets to explain them." Yeah, right! Mr. Lott don't patronize the American people. The majority of Americans are intelligent; the majority of Americans can read; the majority of Americans call this bill "amnesty, unfair, expensive, another lie" and don't want this bill.

Unfortunately, Mr. Lott, you and many of your cohorts that have yet to figure out that you are supposed to be representing the American public, not illegal aliens. You, McCain, Kennedy, Brownback and many others will incur the wrath of the constituents at the next election if this bill passes and you vote for it!

The Fairness Doctrine is the requirement for equal time for opposing political view. Television and radio producers used to sit with stop watches so they would know how much time to give the political opposition. The FCC decided with the great number of radio and television station owners and with the advent of the Internet opposition could be heard so the doctrine was not longer needed.

Now, Senator Diane Feinstein (D-CA) wants to bring the Fairness Doctrine back. She has something to say but no one wants to hear it. There are so few people who want to hear what she has to say that talk radio and opinion television would have to cancel money making programs.

The best thing Senator Feinstein could do is go back to California and help Mr. Feinstein with all those government contracts she helped him acquire.

Here are two (2) more reasons why I keep repeating...

Frivolous Law Suit

Administrative Judge Roy Pearson has lost his $54 million suit against Washington dry cleaners owned by a Korean couple. The suit stemmed from the cleaners losing the pants to a $1,000 suit owned by Judge Pearson. Later the couple found the pants and offered to return them but the Judge refused to accept them back.

U.S District Judge Judith Bartnoff ruled Washington's Consumer Protection Act was not violated when the owner's of Custom Cleaner's failed to meet Roy L. Pearson's standards. Judge Bartnoff wrote in her opinion, "Plaintiff Roy L. Pearson, Jr. takes nothing from the defendants, and defendants Soo Chung, Jin Nam Chung and Ki Y. Chung are awarded the costs of this action against the plaintiff Roy L. Pearson, Jr." The Chungs has asked for the return of their attorney fees and the judge is to rule at a later date as whether Pearson will have to reimburse them.

I hope Judge Bartnoff rules that Pearson must repay the Chungs for their legal fees. In addition, I feel Judge Pearson should, at the very least, be removed from the bench for bringing "frivolous law suits." I think he abused his status as a judge (even though he was an administrative judge) to try to intimidate this couple. In reality, I would like to see Pearson dis-barred!

Embryonic Stem-cell Research

This morning President Bush vetoed a bill passed by the Democratically controlled (with the help of a few Republicans) congress that would have expanded federally funded embryonic stem-cell research.

The bill would have expanded embryonic stem-cell research by allowing the use of excess human embryos that were created for fertility treatments and would otherwise be discarded. The key here is "excess." I don't consider any human embryo "excess" or "discard"-able. Imagine if you were considered "excess," or your child, or your grandchild.

Even though I am a two (2) time stem-cell transplant patient and thankful for the technology and treatment I used by own stem-cells. Embryonic stem-cells would not have put me in remission but would have caused me great guilt. There has never been a cure for disease using embryonic stem-cells.

I applaud President Bush for his decision to veto this bill!

Politics

Fred Thompson and Hillary Clinton were walking down the street when they came to a homeless person. DC has a lot of them.

The Republican, Fred Thompson, gave the homeless person his business card and told him to come to his office for a job. He then took $20 out of his pocket and gave it to the homeless person.

Hillary was very impressed, so when they came to another homeless person, she decided to help. She walked over to the homeless person and gave him directions to the welfare office. She then reached into Thompson's pocket and got out $20. She kept $15 for her administrative fees and gave the homeless person $5.

Now, do you understand the difference?

al Qaeda Murders Children

The U.S. bombed an al Qaeda hideout in Afghanistan. Unfortunately, the cowards had forced children into the hideout as protection. Now the U.S. is apologizing for killing seven (7) children.

Using civilians is a tactic that the radical Islamists use to protect themselves. They know that moral democracies like the U.S. and Israel will do anything to avoid injuring innocent civilians. However, as cruel as it sounds the U.S. must confront this policy and change it or we will not only lose the Iraqi war but we will also lose the war when they follow us back to the U.S. Innocents die in all wars... they did in WWI, WWII and on 9/11.

With the recent shelling and bombings in Israel you can bet Iran is up to something else. They always active their proxies like Hamas, Hezbollah and other terrorist groups to divert attention when they are up to something. It doesn't bother any of these groups, including Iran, to murder innocents in the name of Islam. They believe that anything is allowed including murder and lying in order to advance Islam. The final goal is that all the world will follow Islam or the world will end. This is exactly what the president of Iran is up to.

Our Congressional representative have got to quit debating illegal immigration amnesty and get real on the terrorism and nuclear threat from Iran before it is too late and the U.S. and Israel are wiped off the map.

Massachusetts Dumps Democracy

In the true spirit of Ted Kennedy and John Kerry, today Massachusetts lawmakers prohibited a constitutional amendment from going to voters. The constitutional amendment was a ban on gay marriages!

Massachusetts remains the only state to allow same-sex couples to marry.

Obviously, Massachusetts lawmakers were afraid their constituents would vote the amendment down so they kept it from them. I can't help thinking that the two Senators from Massachusetts will laud this decision... It is probably the way they would run the country if either was elected president. We can only be thankful that Kennedy's past keeps him from running and Kerry indecision kept him from the presidency.

Bomb Iran

It has been reported that Senator Joe Lieberman has called for the bombing of Iran. Actually, what he said was that we need to be prepared to bomb Iran if they don't play by the rules. This was in response to reports that Iran is involved in the death of at least 200 U.S service people.

I have no doubt that Iran is guilty of being involved in killing our service people. It has been proven they are provided IEDs to the terrorists in an effort to drive America out of Iraq. They, and Syria want America out of Iraq so an extremist Islamic government can be established.

The big picture here is that Iran wants to "wipe Israel of the map." That is a direct quote from the Iranian President. This one of the reasons Iran wants nukes. Another reason is to wipe America off the map. If America is to bomb Iran it should be to stop their nuclear proliferation.

America should defend itself from this threat, but more importantly, America should join Israel in protecting Israel. Israel is God's chosen people and must be protected regardless of the cost. Iran cannot and should not be trusted.

McPherson Co. (Kansas) District Court

The District Court of McPherson County, Kansas is one of the biggest jokes to our legal system I have ever seen. Either that or Judge "J" is the most gullible judge elected in a number of years.

I have a "friend" trying to obtain a divorce and custody of his son, but his wife continues to delay and the Judge keeps allowing her to get away with it. She has missed court appearance multiple times, perjured herself numerous times (the Judge has witnessed the lies on the stand), defied a contempt of court order, refused to take drug and alcohol tests ordered by the court and in addition, has been arrested for skipping out on a gas purchase and forged endorsements on an insurance check. Once of the endorsements was a federally insured financial institution. If that is not enough, she took the check and cashed it at another federally insured financial institution. She "fired" her attorney but probably what really happened is she didn't have any money to pay him so he "fired" her!

All of this and she is still out on the streets probably peddling drugs to the kids of McPherson and McPherson County.

She says she wants custody of her son but doesn't even contact him. She hasn't seen or talked to him in about 2 months. She didn't even bother to send him a birthday card on his 10th birthday. For Christmas she called at 5:30 pm Christmas Eve (30 minutes before Wal-Mart closed) to ask what he wanted for Christmas. He got a bicycle that he had to leave in McPherson, but it was too big for him anyway.

The latest episode happened Sunday evening when her Aunt called to talk to the boy. He was at the pool so she left a message that she would call back Monday evening. Here it is Tuesday and no call.

Unfortunately, the boy has learned to not depend on his mother. Now he is learning that her family is just as unreliable has his mother. He doesn't even want to see her and has said he doesn't have a mother. What a shame!!

All this and the McPherson County District Court and Judge "J" can't even get to the point of making a decision that is supposed to be in the boy's best interest.

Shame on McPherson County District Court, Judge "J", the boy's mother and her family!

Fortunately, I have a good friend helping me and taking care of me and a young man that entertains me daily and makes me so happy that I have gotten to know him!

Hillary - Flip Flopping

Interviewer: What is your favorite team?

Hillary: I've always been a Cubs fan but after losing year after year I'm a Yankee fan.

Interviewer: Well you were elected in New York.

Hillary: Oh, I've always been a Yankee fan!

This is a synopsis of a real interview with Hillary Clinton. She is so good at changing her mind for what she thinks is political gain.

Also, she announced that our society needs to change from a one for one society to a sharing society where everyone is equal. I think she should start with sharing the Clinton millions. They both received millions from their book deals. They should begin sharing with Social Security recipients that can't afford their medications and can't afford gasoline to go get the medications even if they could afford them. That would really convince me she is serious about sharing!

Have you noticed lately how is always a step behind Obama. It's like she is waiting to see what he does before she can make a decision. He waited to cast is vote against supporting our troops and then she crept up and cast her vote against our troops. He announced his health plan and then she stepped up and said "me, too." I think neither deserves to be President for simply voting against supporting our troops. Getting us out of Iraq is not the same thing as denying funding for the troops in harm's way.

Oh, yeah... Don't re-elect incumbents!

Rosie... One Last Time

After the big feud I never did hear Rosie's explanation regarding what she said and got all over Elisabeth for not defending her. As I remember she something to the effect of "655,000 innocent Iraqi's have died, now who are the terrorists?" I really thought she was calling the United States and our troops terrorist! If she wasn't she really should have explained what she meant rather than ragging on Elisabeth to defend her.

She has been on virtually every news cast since the incident with a new blog statement so she has had plenty of exposure to explain herself. Maybe Elisabeth really didn't know what she was trying to say?

Oh well, it's no big loss. She just left a few weeks earlier than originally planned. It will be interesting to hear what ABC finds out about who vandalized the pictures of Elisabeth. It seems that when Rosie quits bad things follow her. Remember she was sued by the publishers of her magazine after she lost her original talk show.

I really enjoy the view. Especially, listening to women express their view points. Unfortunately, Rosie didn't allow anyone to talk if they didn't agree with her viewpoint. She was excellent as talking over the over co-hosts. Most of the time she acted like she was the "host" not a co-host or moderator. Maybe ABC, Barbara and Bill will do a better job picking the next moderator. They really need to get some minority women back in the group.

By the way... Don't re-elect incumbents!

Hillary and Obama

As late as the past two weeks Hillary and Obama said they would support funding our troops. They were 2 of 14 Senators that voted against funding the troops.

Hillary stated today that the troops "deserved more." Apparently, that did not include bullets and armor needed for the war. Obama has stated that we must make sure that the troops have the equipment and armor they need.

Obviously, both did not mean what they said. At least their lies are quite apparent before either are elected President. Neither of these people are good for their word and should be ashamed for not supporting our troops.

These two are excellent examples of why to...

Don't re-elect incumbents!

Hillary and Obama

Hillary and Obama voted against supporting our troops. They both, looking at each other, voted against the bill funding our troops. Of course, both will claim to support our troops but their vote says it all... Let's play political games with our troops!

It will be interesting the next few days, Memorial Day weekend, to see how each spins their decision into support of the troops.

Even Speaker Pelosi voted for the bill and stated it is supporting the troops! To show what a good American she is she is going to observe Memorial Day in Greenland watching the glaciers. What a patriot!

Don't re-elect incumbents!

A Democrat in Republican Clothing

For years John McCain has been my favorite presidential candidate. However, in the past few years he has become more liberal. Now he has become a Kennedy liberal Democrat. He is completely on the wrong side of the debate on immigration. As a result, I will not longer support him!

I am not opposed to immigration. I am opposed to illegal immigration! My fore fathers were immigrants... legal immigrants. I have friends whose parents immigrated to the country... legally. I believe it is disrespectful to those legal immigrants to grant amnesty to those in this country illegally.

I have contacted my Senators to express my displeasure about how this Immigration Reform bill is coming about (being jammed down). We must not support in politician that is supporting this bill. We must make sure that any Senator voting for this bill is defeated the next time they are standing for election. As a matter of fact...

Don't re-elect incumbents!

Immigrant Amnesty

The government committee has come to an agreement to deal with the illegal immigrants.

If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck... it is a duck!

This agreement in nothing but amnesty for illegal immigrants. Congressional representatives can call it anything they want... but it is amnesty.

Illegal immigrants must be deported and enter into this country legally! Don't support anything less than deportation of illegals!

Don't re-elect incumbents!

Speaking Bible

Too many "left wingers" want to get the Bible out of our educational systems and lives. In order to do this they need to think about how much the Bible is in our daily lives.

To begin with, let's look at the names of some cities in just a few states:

  • In Pennsylvania there is Bethlehem and Nazareth and Emmaus and Bethsaida and Shiloh and Bethel and Eden and Ephrathah and Zionsville and New Jerusalem.
  • In Texas there is Palestine and Hebron and Eden and Joshua and Temple and Bishop and Blessing and Corpus Christi.
  • And, in California there is Antioch and Carmel and Goshen and Bethel Island and Joshua Tree and Temple City.
These are just a few in three states. Shall we rename all of the cities in all of the states with Biblical names?
A great number of the expressions that we use commonly in the English language came right out of the Bible--expressions like:
  • "the apple of his eye" --Deuteronomy 32:10
  • "eat, drink and be merry"--Ecclesiastes 8:15
  • "The blind leading the blind," Jesus said --Matthew 15:4
  • "Let not your heart be troubled" --John 14:1
The words adoption, busybody, scapegoat--- All of these were introduced as words as a part of the translation of the Bible to the King James Version.
In today's English, we speak Bible everyday!

God has Always Been Here

In the beginning God... (Genesis 1:1)

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. (John 1:1-2)

And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. (John 1:14)

That which was from the beginning... (1 John 1:1)

No Gas May 15th

It's going around the Internet to not buy gasoline on May 15 to protest the price. It's a great idea but it won't work. Too many people will buy gas, buy it on the day before or the day after May 15.

We should be putting pressure on our Congressional representatives to act! This is a Democratic controlled Congress... why haven't they tackled this issue. The Democrats are supposedly so in touch with what Americans want and think, why aren't they acting on this issue that affects virtually all Americans. Because they are too busy sticking "pork" in war funding bills in order to buy the needed votes to get the bill passed. They are more concerned with the "pork" than our servicemen and women.

We should be putting pressure on all the Presidential candidates. I haven't heard one talk about this issue... Democrat or Republican. They are all out of touch with the American public. Anyone attending a candidate rally should be asking the question of the candidate, "What are you going to do about gasoline prices?" Any candidate that hasn't announced their position on gasoline prices should not receive campaign contributions. That would start getting attention!!

How to Start Each Day With a Positive Outlook

  1. Open a new file in your computer.
  2. Name it "Hillary Rodham Clinton"
  3. Send it to the trash.
  4. Empty the trash.
  5. Your PC will ask you, "Do you really want to remove "Hillary Rodham Clinton and all of her contents?"
  6. Firmly Click "Yes."
  7. Feel better.

Tomorrow we will do Nancy Pelosi, then Harry Reid, then Ted Kennedy, then... There is a list.

Rosie is Gone!

Hooray! Rosie is finally leaving ABC and The View!

We just have to tolerate her until the end of June. Of course the official story is she couldn't come to an agreement with ABC Daytime... but we all know the real story!

Harry Reid Must Go

Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid (D-NV), must go!

I agree with Sean Hannity that Harry Reid must be ousted for his outrageous behavior and declaring the "war lost."

Senate Democrats need to caucus and decide whether they are going to support the troops or not. If they really intend to support the troops then they must "muzzle" their leader, Harry Reid, and remove him from the leadership position. You can't say you support the troops when you are publicly declaring the "war lost."

Ambassador Bill Clinton?

Candidate Hillary Clinton has stated that if she is elected president she will have a job for husband, Bill... something like ambassador to the world.

Obviously, she doesn't want him in the White House around the interns. It must be one of those "out of sight, out of mind" kind of things. If she doesn't have him around her then she won't know when he is cheating on her. Of course it would be another blemish on America when it hits the world news medias.

But she's no "Tammy Wynnette that just stands by her man!"

Give me a break!

Don't re-elect incumbents!

Harry Reid - Traitor

Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid (D-NV), yesterday declared the war in Iraq "lost."

Is this man crazy? What is he thinking? Is he thinking?

What message does he think this comment sends to our troops, our enemies and the country? Even if he truly believes that the war is lost he shouldn't be stating it at news conferences. He should be taking this up on the floor of the Senate. Harry Reid is a disgrace to this country and his state and should be to the Democratic party.

In my opinion, this action alone is traitorous. At the very least the Democrats should put someone in this position that can use just a little discretion and common sense.

Think about it!

Don't re-elect incumbents!

Media Coverage of Virginia Tech killer

Why does the main stream media have to glorify this sick, demented murderer?

Once again the media is spending all this time and money telling us all about this killer. Since the "package" was received by NBC they now have even more material to promote their networks. This killer looked up to the Columbine murders and the media is giving other sick individuals some one else to look up to.

The news coverage should cease reporting of this killer. If they must continue to cover VT then concentrate on the murdered, survivors and families. Let's hear the wonderful things these people did in this catastrophe and in their lives. There are many heroes in this saga and Cho is not one of them.

Imus Censored

CBS caved! CBS caved out of fear! CBS has endorsed and is promoting censorship! Is CBS lighting the fire for book burning? The president of CBS, Leslie Moonves, and advertisers, American Express, General Motors, Proctor and Gamble and others collapsed to the blackmail and censorship of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson.

Moonves and the presidents of these spineless corporations should be fired for conceding to blackmail and promoting censorship.

I am not an Imus fan and have rarely listened to him on TV and never on radio. But, he apologized for what he said. Whether the apology was sincere or not, he did apologize and now it should be between him and his maker and the market should determine whether he remains on the air.

The Reverends Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson are two of the most bigoted people in this country. Yes, you can be bigoted against non-blacks. To hear them, one might think they have never uttered a mis-statement or done anything wrong.

Sharpton virtually tried and convicted the three young Duke University men accused of rape. Now that it has come out that they are innocent where is his apology? He is guilty of much more and has never apologized for anything... how about Twanda Braley, his anti-Jewish slanders? He should certainly be fired from his radio job and from his ministry.

Jackson has admitted to having a mistress. Why hasn't the Rainbow Coalition fired him. He is one of the biggest instigators of bigotry and hate. He, too, is eager to make unfounded accusations and then never apologize.

Congressmen (and Congresswomen)

"Congressmen who willfully take actions during wartime that damage morale & undermine the military are saboteurs & should be arrested, exiled, or hanged." - A. Lincoln

This should also apply to Congressmen and and Congressmen who attempt to usurp Presidential powers and responsibilities by negotiating with America's enemies. Once again, Speaker Pelosi and her entourage are talking about holding talks with America's enemy, Iran. We can only hope that the President of Iran decides to hold them hostage. If so, we must stand strong and not negotiate with terrorists!

Speaker Pelosi has asserted that this Congress will be the most "ethical ever." Apparently, that doesn't apply to her and her entourage. I believe she is violating the Constitution by attempting to establish foreign policy... that is the job of the President. When will the House of Representatives take action against her?

Global Warming

The following is from a friend/relative. It is posted with his permission.

OK, I have had all a person can take! One can only sit back just so long and keep their mouth shut. Here it is Al Gore, Shaddup!!!!

Every time you open your yap about global warming we have another week long cold snap here in Michigan.. Perhaps God is trying to tell us something!! How about the fact that the earth has been getting warmer for the last 10 thousand years. Remember the ICE AGE? That was when the earth was unusually cold for a period of time. Since that time it has slowly been warming up. Mankind hasn't had a single thing to do with it. In fact, the scientists aren't sure what caused it all. There is even evidence that before the ice age the whole earth was tropical. How many species do you suppose went extinct through that process?

Now you want to say that if the planet gets warmer that it will cause mass extinction. I highly doubt it. More likely all the nuclear bomb tests over the last half a century have affected our environment much more substantially than anything else. Why aren't we being told that the North polar ice cap is melting because there is an undersea volcano erupting and causing it? That is right, it has nothing to do with burning fossil fuels. And the hole in the ozone over the South pole is also being caused by a volcano. And we have only been watching this phenomena for a couple of decades. We have no idea what this looked like even 50 years ago, so how can we say it is getting worse. All of this is nothing but scare tactics to make us think we need somebody really important to step up to the plate and save us all.

Al Gore if you even give a hoot about the environment then why don't you quit flying around the world and polluting everything? And why do you live in a huge mansion that costs $30 grand a year in utilities? Perhaps you should put your mouth where your money is!! Or maybe that is what you are doing. You must have made a fortune from your book about the environment. Well this is one person that isn't being duped. So why don't you go back to your Tennessee Mansion and live off your government stipend and find something constructive to do with your life??

Sincerely

Thomas

Mr. Green - True or False?

HOUSE # 1:

A 20-room mansion (not including 8 bathrooms) heated by natural gas. Add on a pool (and a pool house) and a separate guest house all heated by gas. In ONE MONTH ALONE this mansion consumes more energy than the average American household in an ENTIRE YEAR. The average bill for electricity and natural gas runs over $2,400.00 per month. In natural gas alone (which last time we checked was a fossil fuel), this property consumes more than 20 times the national average for an American home. This house is not in a northern or Midwestern "snow belt," either. It's in the South.

HOUSE # 2:

Designed by an architecture professor at a leading national university, this house incorporates every "green" feature current home construction can provide. The house contains only 4,000 square feet (4 bedrooms) and is nestled on arid high prairie in the American southwest. A central closet in the house holds geothermal heat pumps drawing ground water through pipes sunk 300 feet into the ground. The water (usually 67 degrees F.) heats the house in winter and cools it in summer. The system uses no fossil fuels such as oil or natural gas, and it consumes 25% of the electricity required for a conventional heating/cooling system. Rainwater from the roof is collected and funneled into a 25,000 gallon underground cistern. Wastewater from showers, sinks and toilets goes into underground purifying tanks and then into the cistern. The collected water then irrigates the land surrounding the house. Flowers and shrubs native to the area blend the property into the surrounding rural landscape.

HOUSE #1 (20 room energy guzzling mansion) is outside of Nashville, Tennessee . It is the abode of that renowned environmentalist (and filmmaker) Al Gore.

HOUSE #2 (model eco-friendly house) is on a ranch near Crawford, Texas . Also known as "the Texas White House," it is the private residence of the President of the United States , George W. Bush.

Eighth District of California Representative

The residents of the eighth district of California must be horribly disappointed to have elected a representative to the House of Representative only to find out that she is busy representing someone else. That representative is Nancy Pelosi and she is off in Syria on "spring break" visiting with known terrorist states.

Maybe she will be able to resolve the middle east troubles that have plagued the region for more than 2,000 years.

Monday, April 2, 2007

President Pelosi

Oh, I mean Speaker Pelosi is off on spring break playing footsie with the President/Dictator of Syria, a known terrorist state.

Sense when did the Speaker of the House set policy for the country?

Why is she spending taxpayer dollars on a trip to see a terrorist?

If the House of Representatives are serving the American people they will immediately censure her for this act of betrayal... betrayal of the American people, betrayal of the American troops in Iraq and Afganistan and betrayal of everything this country stands for.

Speaker Pelosi, there may "be a new Congress in town" but that doesn't give you the right to usurp the policies of the United States.

Why aren't you in DC cutting $20 billion of pork spending out the troop support bill? $20 billion that was added as bribes to get the bill passed!

U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Health, and Iraq Accountability Act, 2007

Just a few extras in the U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Health, and Iraq Accountability Act, 2007 passed by our Congress. A little "pork barrel" always helps get an unpopular bill passed.

$25,000,000 Spinach

$20,000,000 Emergency Conservation Program

$252,000,000 Milk Income Loss Contract Program

$74,000,000 Peanut Storage Costs

$5,000,000 Businesses breeding, rearing or transporting live fish

$60,400,000 National Marine Fisheries Service

$436,400,000 Subtotal

This isn't all of it. There is more money for hurricane recovery and numerous other "pet" projects. The Democrats need to remember it is the tax payers money not theirs!

Queen Pelosi and Arab Peace Plan

Nancy Pelosi is Speaker of the House of Representatives not Queen of the U. S. Today's CNN coverage of her highlights her telling the President to "calm down," that "there is a new Congress in town" and it will be their way not his.

He has said for weeks that he will veto any bill that sets a date for withdrawal from Iraq and now she seems appalled that he is going to do what he said he would.

Is she nuts or does she really have that big of an ego?

Now that she has said that things will be the Democratic Congress' way I believe that means that if the troops are not supported she is taking responsibility for the Democratic party. In addition, Chuck Schumer (D-NY) has said Congress will run this war just like the Democratic party ran the Viet Nam war. In other words, cut and run and show the enemy that the U.S. doesn't have the guts to win a war. Remember how the Viet Nam vets were treated when they came home... surely we don't want these vets to be treated the same way!

Give me a break! Don't re-elect incumbents!

Additionally, the King of our "ally," Saudi Arabia, has called the U. S. presence in the mid-east "illegitimate."

The Arab League of Nations now wants to go back and adopt the 2002 "Land for Peace" deal with Israel. This was a bad opportunity in 2002 and it still is today. Jerusalem must not be surrendered or divided. Jerusalem belongs to "God's chosen people," Israel. These Muslim countries cannot be trusted to honor any treaty. They will use any treaty to buy time for further preparation for war against the "infidels."

Tuesday, March 27, 2007

Israel Threatened

Speaking on behalf of the entire Arab world Saudi Arabia has told Israel to accept their peace plan or face war.

This is nothing but a trap. The Arab world will never honor a peace plan for more than seven (7) years. The Islamic Quran requires Islamists to kill the "infidels." The infidels are Christians and Jews or anyone else that is not Islamic. For more than 1,400 years Islamics have been breaking treaties and killing anyone that is not part of their religion.

Part of the new peace offer is consistent with the "Road Map to Peace" formulated by the United States, Russia, European Union and the United Nation. Both plans require that Israel give up half of Jerusalem to the Palestinians as the capital of their new Palestinian state.

The United States and the rest of the non-Islamic world should be fighting this "peace" plan. Once again the United States will have to take the lead. Too many European countries have proven to bow to Islamic demands. Spain, France, Italy, Germany and Great Britain have already acquiesced to Islamic demands because of terrorist attacks upon them.

Russia will be unwilling to help because of their financial commitments to countries like Iran. Russia is selling nuclear technology to Iran and the President of Iran has publicly stated that Israel and the United States must be destroyed.

God gave Jerusalem to his chosen people, Israel. God established Israel's borders. Anyone committing infractions on God's chosen people is committing a sin. Jerusalem belongs to Israel alone!

If you are a Bible believing Christian you should be speaking out against this "peace plan!"

House decides to put Troops in Harm's Way

Today, the U. S. House of Representatives voted to condemn our troops in Iraq. Knowing the President will veto the "the U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Health and Iraq Accountability Act" they chose to pass it anyway. It was more important for Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and her fellow Democrats to get a bill that provides millions to special interest groups than to protect our troops in Iraq.

Good for those salmon fisherman in California, peanut farmers in Georgia and all the other special interests of Democrats for getting the funds away from the American people and our troops.

The money for the troops will begin to run out within the next three (3) weeks and if the Senate passes the same bill then SHAME ON YOU! Our troops' blood will be on your hands! As sure as you pulled the trigger yourself, when you take funding away from the troops you have caused their deaths. May God and the American public forgive you!

DON'T RE-ELECT INCUMBENTS!

Compromise or Subpoenas

In my opinion the Democratic controlled Congress is on a witch hunt with the Executive Branch over the firing of the federal prosecutors.

The White House turned over the emails that were asked for and Democrats immediately started complaining. They didn't like the form they were in because they were "boring and repetitive." Apparently, the White House should have spruced them up so they wouldn't be so boring. If you have ever forwarded or replied to emails they normally have the contents written by each person involved. Sure they are going to be repetitive. If the White House had edited them and taken out the repetitive part then the Democrats would have complained that they had been altered.

The White House has offered a comprise pertaining to Rove and other officials speaking to Congress, but Congress doesn't want to discuss this. Instead, they want to issue subpoenas and draw this out as long as possible.

These Democratic tactics are right in line with the plan of action Representative John Conyers (D-MI) announced prior to the last election. That was that he wanted George Bush impeached and he planned to start impeachment proceedings as soon as he took over the House Judiciary Committee. Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) didn't deny this as a Democratic position but told Conyers to keep his mouth shut until after the election.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy (D-VT) flatly rejected the President's compromise offer, despite pleas from the top Republican on the committee, Senator Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania. In an exchange with Leahy, Specter argued that moving toward confrontation with the White House would only tie up the matter in courts for years. This is what the Democrats want!!!

President Bush has said he will invoke executive privilege if the subpoenas are issued and he is now receiving criticism about that. The Democrats didn't complain about it when Clinton invoked executive privilege more than any other President in recent history.

Why don't the Democrats take the initiative and get busy with this country's business? What "great" business has the Congress conducted since the Democrats took over?

Don't re-elect any incumbent!

Hollywood Hot Topics

Have you noticed how the main stream media has to check with Hollywood Liberals before they know what "hot topics" to alarm the nation about?

The Hollywood Liberals now think that the U. S., specifically George Bush, should take us into Darfur to save the people because hundreds of thousands of them are being murdered in civil war. I don't disagree that we need to help protect the citizens of Darfur but why aren't the Liberal concerned about the hundreds of thousand of Iraqis that were being murdered by Saddam and his Red Guard? There are still thousands of innocent people being murdered in Iraq by terrorist. The Hollywood Liberals think we need to get out and let them take care of it themselves because it is a civil war.

The media didn't report on "global warming" until a few Hollywood Liberals decided it was going to be their "cause." Now Hollywood says global warming is all the fault of George Bush like it just started during his administration. Come on! The Liberals and Hollywood think the American public is stupid enough to believe it is all George Bush's fault.

The main stream media has to report only what Hollywood Liberals deem important. If you really want proof that main stream media thinks we are all stupid, just watch one broadcast with Katie Couric and the others.

Too bad main stream media isn't elected... Don't re-elect incumbents!

U. S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Health and Iraq Accountability Act

House Majority Leader, Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), is leading the charge to get the Democratic "anti-war" bill passed.

In order to get the bill passed by her Democratic colleagues $29 Billion in "pork barrel" spending is part of the bill. The billions include money for veterans' health care (one of the good parts), drought relief, more help for Gulf Coast recovery from hurricane damage, $60 million for Pacific Coast salmon fishermen and $25 million for Salinas Valley spinach growers.

In order to make the bill more "deceiving" the sponsors have named it "the U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Health and Iraq Accountability Act." Maybe it should have been named "the Nancy Pelosi Pork Barrel and Bribery Scheme to get the Bill Passed Act."

Don't re-elect incumbents!

Just Suppose

JUST SUPPOSE that at every ball game, graduation, prom, etc, someone who has had enough of stupid, anti historical court decisions had the guts to start reciting the Lord's Prayer loudly, and others joined in, then more, until hundreds participated.

And JUST SUPPOSE this spread all over our land until this became standard practice in hundreds of schools, then thousands, then tens of thousands.

Just what would local school boards do? Expel half the student body? (They need their jobs and federal funding far too much to do that.) What would a Federal district court do? Order hundreds of nonviolent, decent minors jailed? Or thousands?

Just what would the Supreme Court do about it - issue more edicts?

What if millions decided the Supreme Court was out of its league and said, "So what?" JUST SUPPOSE hundreds of brave school board members, local judges, prosecutors, and others, each in their own area of authority, refused to intervene, realizing that we have already tried it the other way, and the result was a modern-day Sodom and Gomorrah of immorality and senseless violence.

JUST SUPPOSE this then spread next into classroom after classroom, and either a brave student or a brave teacher started the Lord's Prayer (or Psalm 100, or a Bible reading, etc.) each morning, until hundreds of thousands stood up and did their part and stopped cowering before the destructive, God-hating secular attitudes of the pagan minority who parrot the media line.

JUST SUPPOSE every God-fearing Christian participated peacefully, nonviolently, but firmly and continually. Where would they get enough jails to hold us all? How would they prosecute hundreds of thousands?

It is far more than the government can do to even stop the flow of illegal drugs, despite their best efforts, and overcrowded jails.

What if hundreds of thousands stood up to the tyranny of the minority and demanded their freedom of religion back? They can't build enough jails or courts to begin to deal with such a movement.

During the Civil Rights battles of the 60's, some of the black people decided they had had enough and stood up to the system. A few dozen here, a few hundred there, and eventually the whole country heard, and repented, and changed. Racial repression was an evil whose time was over.

But now, there is another battle and the stakes are even higher. The future of all children, white, black, and otherwise, is at stake. No other country on earth allows a tiny minority of impractical anti-religious bigots to censor their people's right to free religious expression. Even Russian public schools show videos of the life and teachings of Jesus now.

We tend to get exactly the kind of government we deserve.

If you make a time line or a graph, you will see that the exponential increase in public school violence, pregnancy, and foul language all started at exactly the time the Supreme Court threw prayer and Bible reading out of the schools. We told God we didn't need Him, and the results speak for themselves.

JUST SUPPOSE hundreds of Christians passed this message on to all their friends, leaders and contacts.

JUST SUPPOSE hundreds of churches, organizations and ministries passed this message on to their constituencies with a request to reprint, repost and repeat it wherever possible.

JUST SUPPOSE you are a lighthouse. Once upon a time the Church was the moral conscience and spiritual lighthouse of the nation. Now, most congregations are impotent, pusillanimous minor-league social welfare agencies or mutual comfort societies with no impact on the world around their little enclave.

JUST SUPPOSE - What do you suppose you should do?

Anti-war Protests

Yesterday, anti-war protestors gathered near the Lincoln Memorial to express their disagreement with the Iraq war and to call for the troops to come home. Although I disagree with this thought, this is not my purpose of this post.

This morning former Congressman Tom DeLay (R-TX) called the protestors unpatriotic. I completely disagree with Mr. DeLay. The most patriotic think an American citizens can do is to express one's dissent. That is Freedom of Speech!

Sen. Chuck Schumer & U. S. Attorneys

A few days ago I posted that I agreed with Sen. Chuck Schumer (R-NY) regarding the firing of eight U. S. Attorneys. He feels these firings were purely political.

After listening to Sen. Schumer this morning on Meet the Press I am now convinced that they were not politically motivated any more than when Clinton fired all U. S. Attorneys or when Reagan fired all U. S. Attorneys. By tradition, the U. S. Attorneys serve at the will of the President, NOT Sen. Schumer.

I do believe that Sen. Chuck Schumer has started a new political witch hunt against the President. This shouldn't have surprised me or anyone else. This is one of his expertises. He needs to spend more time representing the citizens of New York than representing the Democratic party.

Once again, I say, Do Not re-elect incumbents!

Red Fridays

Very soon, you will see a great many people wearing Red every Friday. The reason? Americans who support our troops used to be called the "silent majority". We are no longer silent, and are voicing our love for God, country and home in record breaking numbers. We are not organized, boisterous or over-bearing. We get no liberal media coverage on TV, to reflect our message or our opinions. Many Americans, like you, me and all our friends, simply want to recognize that the vast majority of America supports our troops.

Our idea of showing solidarity and support for our troops with dignity and respect starts this Friday -and continues each and every Friday until the troops all come home, sending a deafening message that.. Every red-blooded American who supports our men and women afar will wear something red. By word of mouth, press, TV -- let's make the United States on every Friday a sea of red much like a homecoming football game in the bleachers.

If every one of us who loves this country will share this with acquaintances, co-workers, friends, and family. It will not be long before the USA is covered in RED and it will let our troops know the once "silent" majority is on their side more than ever; certainly more than the media lets on.

The first thing a soldier says when asked "What can we do to make things better for you?" is...We need your support and your prayers.

Let's get the word out and lead with class and dignity, by example; and wear something red every Friday.

Men in Black

Politicians on both sides of the aisle complain about the infamous "Men in Black", the Supreme Court, establishing law instead of interpreting the law. In 1962 the Men in Black established a law that is commonly referred to as "Separation of Church and State." "Separation of Church and State" does not appear in the United States Constitution. It was simply an idea they came up with while interpreting the Constitution for a case they were hearing.

I really believe they missed this interpretation by a mile. If our forefathers had intended what we now have why are Biblical references everywhere. The Speaker of the House looks directly at a sculpture of Moses, "the Law giver." Of course, there are the references on our money, on most Federal buildings, like the Supreme Court, both houses of Congress open sessions with a prayer, the President is sworn into office with his hand on the Bible, etc.

Many people believe this country was founded on Christian principles. I disagree. I think it was founded on the Bible. The original settlers brought their Bibles with them. Until 1962, when the Men in Black established this law, the Bible was the basis for most readers and was frequently read in our schools. It was the basis of laws and the moral compass of the settlers and our forefathers who established this country. Too bad that for so many of our elected officials it isn't still the moral compass!

Fred Thompson and other things

If former Senator Fred Thompson (R, TN) decides to run for President he may be the best hope for the GOP. From what I have heard from him I could probably support him. Is America ready for another actor as President? The last one was pretty darn good! It will be interesting to see what he decides.

Attorney General Gonzales has admitted that mistakes were made in the firing of eight U. S. Attorneys. Listening to and reading the media reports it sure stinks of pure politics and probable pressure from the White House. Gonzales has said he will not resign. Once again, I call for President Bush to fire him. And again, if he won't Congress should take steps to remove him from office.

This episode on top of the infraction in the law in the name of the Patriot act are just too much. I heard today on the radio President Bush say that "those breaking the law should be arrested." Even though the comment was made in conjunction with drug trafficking from Mexico, shouldn't it apply on American soil to everyone. Wake up and follow through with your commitments, President Bush!

Apparently, it is now coming out that Congressional members on both sides of the aisle have been applying pressure on agencies to hire constituents. The Justice Department is one of those "agencies." In addition, they have been doing illegal things like ordering credit reports on people without authorization. Aren't you surprised that our elected officials would do illegal things? I'm at least surprised that those in Washington are just now figuring out that illegal activity is going on in Congress.

Maybe I'm becoming more liberal, but it sure seems that things in Washington, D.C. are souring and stinking on both sides of the aisle.

Don't re-elect the incumbent! Let's get some fresh blood!

Hillary, you're no Jack Kennedy

Hillary is now comparing herself to President Kennedy. Prior to his election the spin doctors of the time said the country would never elect a Catholic. She is now using this as a comparison regarding women. You would think she would have learned from the Dan Quayle incident... "Senator Clinton... You're no Jack Kennedy."

Give me a break!

Halliburton moving

All the news is carrying a story about Halliburton moving their corporate headquarters to Dubai. If they follow through with this move, all branches of government doing business with them and any subsidiary should cancel contracts. I see this as a huge security risk. Several months ago a foreign company was set to take over management of our ports and that was a security risk. Halliburton employing non-Americans in a foreign country is also a security risk.

Follow up on FBI:

Senator Shumer (D, NY) is calling for the resignation of Attorney General Gonzales. I can't remember ever, ever agreeing with Shumer on anything so this is a first and more than likely a last! Attorney General Gonzales is FBI Director Mueller's boss. President Bush should fire both... they are both responsible for the violations of the law in the name of the Patriot Act.

Senator Lindsey Graham (R, SC) has said it is President Bush's right to fire them. Senator Graham is wrong... it is his duty to fire them. In the past, President Bush has said he would fire anyone in his administration who broke the law. Then, follow through with your commitment and fire both, Attorney General Gonzales and Director Mueller.

FBI abuses

I am and probably will remain a supporter of the Patriot Act. However, the recently disclosed abuses by the FBI are intolerable. Director Mueller has stated that he will not resign as a result of the abuses. President Bush should fire Mueller and the Justice Department should investigate and determine who was responsible for the violations of law and prosecute to the limit of the law.

In my opinion, theses abuses are significantly more severe and important than prosecuting or persecuting people like Martha Stewart and Scooter Libby for lying to the FBI. After all, neither did any more or as much and former President Clinton. He not only lied to the FBI but also to the American public on national television.

Maybe if Director Mueller had been more concerned with watching what his agent were doing instead of chasing insignificant liars these abuses of power could have been avoided. Although he didn't commit the abuses he is still just as responsible. Obviously, he doesn't feel the "buck stops with" him.

If President Bush is unwilling to fire Mueller then Congress should takes steps to remove him.

Liberals, Conservative, Liberals

After all the hoopla this past weekend in Selma, Alabama there is a big question that needs to be answered. Since Obama and Hillary both made political speeches at a church, were any IRS regulations violated? I thought that if churches got involved with politics they would lose their tax exempt status. But, it is probably okay since they are both liberal candidates in a Congress controlled by liberal democrats. You can bet if it hd been a conservative Republican there would be a tremendous uproar.

Ann Coulter, labeled by liberals "right-wing," actually a Conservative columnist/commentator made a comment this weekend in a speech associating the term "faggot" with Presidential candidate John Edwards. Of course the liberal media has tried to turn this into something it wasn't. The speech was actually about joking in speeches. In my opinion, the whole incident was an unfortunate mistake in timing.

Of course, when Bill Maher stated that the Vice President should be assassinated, the liberal Media failed to report the incident, thus "blessing" the suggestion. The Department of Justice should have investigated Mr. Maher for making a threat on the Vice President.

Back to Mr. Edwards... he is one of the liberal democratic candidates that favors murdering babies in the name of abortion. He also favors homosexual marriage but still calls himself, although reluctantly, a Christian.

Conservative Evangelical Christians are going to have to speak up this election and keep the liberal "scum" out of office!

Hillary... the Southerner?

Hillary and Obama were at the anniversary celebration of the Selma march this weekend in Selma, Alabama. They both made speeches and the media is reporting this morning that Obama held his own. They also reported that Hillary acquired a "curious Southern drawl."

Yep, true to the Clinton way, play the crowd and become whatever it takes! What will she be next?

I guess last week in a speech she stated that the Chinese had the U.S. "over the barrel" because they own $6 trillion of U.S. Treasuries so we better be nice to them. Who has who over the barrel? What would it do to the Chinese economy if the U.S. defaulted on those $6 trillion of Treasuries?

Just not sure she has a grasp on the real world!

Maybe she will become the "the little lady staying home baking cookies" or "some Tammy Wynette Standing By Her Man."

Injustices, Stupidities and Presidential Ponderings

Martha Stewart convicted of lying to an FBI agent; Scooter Libby on trial for lying to an FBI agent. What is going on... Bill Clinton - "I did not have sexual relations with that woman!" Lie... when is he going on trial for lying to the entire United States population?

Kansas Appeals Court set aside a conviction of the former Westar executive Wittig because there was insufficient evidence. Obviously, these judges felt that a jury of Wittig's peers wasn't smart enough to interpret the evidence. The Kansas Appeals Court judges are secure in their jobs... but I think they should be impeached.

Kansas voters decide to vote former Kansas Attorney General, Phill Kline, out of office. But Johnson County, Kansas Republicans decide he would make an excellent Johnson County District Attorney. Turns out that the loser gets the winners old job. Phill Kline promptly fires most of the prosecutors in his new office... people that were hired by the man who defeated him for Attorney General. Now the fired employees are suing for their jobs. How much will Phill Kline's actions cost Johnson County residence? All for his act of retribution!

The presidential election should be interesting over the next year and a half. I don't know who to vote for, yet. But I do know who not to vote for... Hillary Clinton. She uses her Secret Service agents to keep citizens from asking her the hard questions. Her own employees say she is two-faced. It's not that I am opposed to a woman being President because I'm not. I think the country is ready for a woman President... just not Hillary.

Other than Obama and McCain I haven't really seen anyone that is too interesting. I'm so unimpressed with the field of candidates I can't even think who is running and who has already dropped out. I do think it would be nice to have someone new and fresh!

ACLU Exec into Child Porn - Did you hear about it?

Apparently, the only major news media reporting this was Bill O'Reilley and the rest at Fox News!

ACLU exec busted for child porn in court today
------------------------------------------------------------------
Posted: February 28, 2007
1:00 a.m. Eastern

A former American Civil Liberties Union executive, who once argued that Internet filters in libraries that limited children's access to pornography would interfere with their ability to learn and communicate, is facing a federal court hearing today on charges he possessed child pornography.

The preliminary hearing is scheduled in court in the Eastern District of Virginia for Charles Rust-Tierney, 51, of Arlington, Va., who has been held in custody in the case since his arrest. According to report on the case, Rust-Tierney admitted to investigators he had downloaded videos and images from child pornography websites onto CD-ROMS, which reportedly depicted graphic forcible assaults on young girls.

Rust-Tierney, who served as president of the Virginia ACLU chapter for several years, was the lawyer who argued against Internet filters in libraries in the early 2000s when the ACLU was opposing the Children's Internet Protection Act, which later was approved by Congress.

Donna Rice Hughes, president of Enough is Enough, a website dedicated to protecting children from the dangers on the Internet, had worked on CIPA, and then served as an expert witness for the defendant when Tierney and the ACLU sued over the filters.

"That Mr. Rust-Tierney, a leading proponent of unrestricted access to the Internet, has now been arrested for receiving and possessing graphic child pornography should serve as testimony to the injudicious and baleful outgrowth of the legal challenges launched by the ACLU questioning the constitutionality of important legislation that protects children from Internet exploitation and content harmful to minors," the organization said in a statement released by Enough is Enough spokeswoman Cris Clapp.

"When Mr. Rust-Tierney argued before the Loudoun County Library Board that unrestricted access to the resources of the Internet was essential for our children's ability to learn and communicate, and when groups like the ACLU contend that acceptable use policies alone are capable of protecting children online, they fail to acknowledge the tragic and devastating effects to children and families of both intentional and unintentional access to online pornography," the statement said.

CIPA was stricken by a lower court, but that decision was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2003, providing what Enough is Enough describes as "a landmark victory for child Internet safety protection."

The investigation that resulted in Rust-Tierney's arrest was conducted by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, as well as Arlington County police as part of the Northern Virginia and District of Columbia Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.

The explicitness of the offending videos is evidenced by the reports that in one of the scenes a prepubescent girl is "seen and heard crying" and another is described as "bound by rope."

Rust-Tierney's arrest was announced after his initial appearance before United States Magistrate Judge Barry R. Poretz, who ordered him held until a subsequent hearing.

Rice Hughes had advised Congress on the CIPA proposal, but her organization confirmed that an analysis shows that still more than 20,000 images of child pornography are posted on the Internet every week.

"Studies have demonstrated that early exposure to pornography is related to greater involvement in deviant sexual practices, particularly rape. Additionally, studies have confirmed that among child molesters incited, over half deliberately used the stimuli of pornography as they prepared to offend," the group said.

"The addictive qualities of pornography combined with the fact that habitual consumption of pornography can result in a diminished satisfaction with mild forms of pornography and a correspondingly strong desire for more deviant and violent material poses a direct threat to the safety of our children," the group said.

The group also noted that the fact Rust-Tierney "was serving as a youth sports leader is highly concerning."

"Groups like the ACLU, which in the ACLU Policy Number 4 ascribes to the belief that child exposure to explicit material and juvenile delinquency have never been carried to the point of defi nitive proof, and which ultimately propounds the legality of child pornography, represent an incredibly radical and malevolent agenda that clearly results in the exploitation of our children," the group said.

Rice Hughes is an internationally known Internet safety expert and advocate, and a leader of national efforts to protect children from sexual predators and Internet porn. Her book, "Kids Online: Protecting Your Children in Cyberspace" was called a "powerful tool for parents" and has been translated into Spanish and Korean.

The Washington Times reported that an ICE agent said in a sworn affidavit that Rust-Tierney had subscribed to various child-pornography web sites in recent years.

The overall national ACLU's stance on pornography was made clear when in 1985 Barry Lynn told the U.S. Attorney General's Commission on Pornography that chil d pornography was protected by the First Amendment.

A StopTheACLU website notes that the organization still represents such groups as the North American Man-Boy Love Association and John Roberts, of the ACLU's Boston branch, said, "Mere possession should not be a crime."

Fox News' Bill O'Reilly called it a "horrifying" case. And he noted that the two "biggest left-win outfits in the country - the New York Times and NBC News - ignored the story entirely." CBS News, CNN and most of the big city liberal newspapers also failed to cover the Rust-Tierney arrest, Fox said.

"Now the failure of most media outlets to cover this colossal embarrassment to the ACLU contrasts vividly with the coverage of preacher Ted Haggard, which embarrassed conservative Christians. You remember when Haggard was accused of immorality b y a male prostitute, the story was all over the place."

More on The Mouth

Rosie O'Donnell is an absolute lunatic and should be removed from television. As Donald Trump said she is "fat and ugly" and I would add, one of the most unintelligent people on the planet. ABC and Barbara Walters should be ashamed of giving her a free and open forum to insult Christians, our service people and our nation. Shut her mouth and get her off television and The View!

Obviously, her presence on The View has harmed ratings so much ABC has resorted to making it a game show awarding prizes to try to keep the ratings high enough to avoid cancellation.

If you agree with me that Rosie should be removed from television then join me in boycotting any product that advertised during the airing. In addition, boycott any ABC program that is advertised during The View.

We don't compromise. You shouldn't either.
If guns kill people, then...
...pencils miss spel words.
...cars make people drive drunk.
...spoons made Rosie O'Donnell fat.

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day to all. I surprised my sweetie yesterday by having her flowers delivered a day early. She called this morning to tell me where she had hidden Valentines for Brian, Steve and me. We were all pleased and surprised. She had also hidden Valentines for Cory, Lisa and Reilee.

Kansas City received snow night before last. Here in Lenexa we got about 4" with more south of here. School was canceled yesterday because of the snow and strong north winds. The sun is out today but the forecast is for a high of eighteen degrees.

Hope you all have a great day and romantic evening.
