Much has been said surrounding forced "term limits" for Congress. I have heard arguments on both sides, and, to be honest, I'm not exactly convinced that term limits would be a valid solution.

I'm hoping for opinions on the matter…

Our Founding Fathers created these offices as a way for men to serve their country, and to serve it well. They hoped for a humble person to come in who simply wanted the best for his country and it's people. Many of the Founding Fathers were also Deists who believed in the common good of man. One need only look around to see men are not "good". Because of the Garden of Eden, and the sin-curse, we constantly do what we do not or should not want to do and cannot do what we should. Only Christ gives us the ability to overcome our slavery to the flesh.

But I digress…

If a member of Congress was limited to a certain term period, wouldn't we run the risk of them putting the pedal to the metal and voting completely against the will of the people? That's what will happen in the case of Barack Obama. If that man is re-elected, you can guarantee this country will end up as 1930's-40's Germany.  On this side of the 2012 election, he still has to tip-toe somewhat to be re-elected, but once he is no longer accountable to a voting machine, he will put the final nail in the coffin. Term limits, in his case, will end up being the death of this country. He doesn't need more than 2 terms to do irreversible damage.

Some might say, "Well, that's how we can avoid power-hungry career politicians!" But, let me ask you this, how do they get to be career-politicians? By appointing themselves? No, no, no…They are voted in- continously.

So, now it seems we have a problem, not with the rabid politicians, but with the voting populace. Would somebody just say it already?

Term Limits would only be necessary to put the reigns on an ignorant populace who keep voting into office these crazy DC nut-jobs! Everybody knows Barack Obama is a loon, but what about the majority of Americans who voted him in to office? Or, worse yet, those who will pull the trigger and vote for him again!

Seems to me like those who need to be called out, are not the ones who have and pursue and ideological agenda in Congress, but those who just keep giving them the votes! Wake up, America!

I saw this article, a post by the Associated Press on yahoo.com, and thought it was informative- and also the funniest thing I've read in a long time (despite its efforts to the contrary). I have included the post and added my own comments in red. Enjoy.

Phoenix- Gov. Jan Brewer ignored criticism from President Barack Obama on Friday and signed into law a bill supporters say will take the handcuffs off police in dealing with illegal immigration in Arizona, the nation's busiest gateway for human and drug smuggling from Mexico.

With hundreds of protesters outside the State Capitol shouting that the bill will lead to civil rights abuses, Brewer said critics were "overreacting" and that she wouldn't tolerate racial profiling.

"We in Arizona have been more than patient in waiting for Washington to act," Brewer said after signing the law. "But decades of inaction and misguided policy have created a dangerous and unacceptable situation."

Earlier Friday, Obama called the bill "misguided" ("Afterall, I am illegal and sit on the Presidential White Throne!") and instructed the Justice Department to examine it to see if it's legal. (Questioning Legislative legality only permissable when in FAVOR of the DC loon's nest) He also said the federal government must enact immigration reform (Read AMNESTY NOW!- in time for November sweeps and further destruction to America's national sovereignty) at the national level- or leave the door open to "irresponsibility of others." ("Others" meaning conservatives who will get elected on the heels of this ridiculous administration that would never provide amnesty to those who ignore America's laws thus forfeiting the liberal's one and only chance at a liberal majority to legalize a whole new group of democratic voters)

"That includes, for example, the recent efforts in Arizona, which threaten to undermine basic notions of fairness (my, and so many others' "notions of fairness" were disgustingly "undermined" when you rammed through your euro-socialism death care bill- tell me, Mr. President all about fair!) that we cherish as Americans (yes, Obama, we, as Americans, do cherish this), as well as trust between police and and their communities that is so crucial to keeping us safe," ("because, "my fellow Americans", safety is only found and secured in wide-open borders- no questions asked (unless you're in the unfortunate position of still being in the womb)…and since I value safety so highly, I have secured our national preservation by bowing to homicidal "diplomats", begging forgiveness for our great, unpardonable sin of national defense, spitting in the face of our ONLY Middle Eastern ally, signing a weapon's treaty with the Bear (because they also highly value our safety!), and making sure I'm in good with the Loon-Tang Clan- Chavez, Ahmadinejad, and Quaddafi"- do you feel safe yet?)Obama said.

The legislation, sent to the Republican governor by the GOP-led legislature (side note from the liberal Associated Press- "Thank the Republicans…", (and here, my precious readers…the funniest, funniest line of…well, at least the week in the lame-stream media) makes it a crime under state law to be in the country illegally.  (And there's yer sign…) It also requires local police officers to question people about their immigration status if there is reason to suspect they are illegal immigrants; allows lawsuits against government agencies that hinder enforcement of immigration laws; and makes it illegal to hire illegal immigrants for day labor or knowingly transport them. (Don't worry bout the ones the climb up in yer radiator unknowingly)

The law sends "a clear message that Arizona is unfriendly to undocumented aliens," (good…g-i-t, nuff said- but, for the record, here's a clear message from all of America- 62% favor tougher border security)) said Peter Spiro, a Temple University law professor and author of the book "Beyond Citizenship: American Identity After Globalization." (Say it with me now, "Once upon a time, in a land called "America"…

Brewer signed the bill in a state auditorium about a mile from the Capitol complex where some 2,000 demonstrators booed county Supervisor Mary Rose Wilcox when she announced, "that the governor did not listen to our prayers." (She did, however, listen to mine)

"It's going to change our lives," said Emilio Almodovar, a 13-year old American citizen from Phoenix. We can't walk to school anymore. (And runner-up for funniest, funniest line…) We can't walk the streets without the pigs thinking we're illegal immigrants." (And, that my friends, a future wonderful American- now who says parents don't teach values and morals?)

The Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund said it plans a legal challenge to the law, arguing it "launches Arizona into a spiral of pervasive fear, community distrust, increased crime and costly litigation, with nationwide repercussions."  (However, having not done anything for decades has held Arizona in a "spiral of pervasive fear, community distrust, increased crime and costly litigation, with nationwide repercussions"- decisions, decisions…

Mexico has warned the proposal could affect cross-border relations. (Because the land of the drug lords can afford that! I guess that ruins my planned trip to Chizen Itza…) On Thursday, Mexico's Senate unanimously passed a resolution urging Brewer to veto the law. (And in a liberal utopia, a Mexican resolution has full bearing on America's decisions- now what of that pesky resolution that says they own Texas?)

"Police in Arizona already treat migrants worse than animals," (and the "migrants" or ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS, as I like to call them, who ignore America's laws, hop the border, stuff the dead bodies of little children with cocaine, raid and burglarize unfortunate Americans' homes on the border, kidnap American citizens, and send their drug lords into our neighborhoods to set up shop are doing a favor to America? Even animals don't act like that!)) said Francisco Loureiro, an activist who runs a migrant shelter in the border town of Nogales, Mexico. "There is already a hunt for migrants, and now it will be open season under the cover of a law." ("Under the cover of… a law"- oh, the outrage! We don't bother with "laws" 'n' such in Mexico- as you can tell with the sheer numbers of border-hoppers)

The bill will take effect in late July or early August, and Brewer ordered the state's law enforcement licensing agency to develop a training course on how to implement it without violating civil rights.

"We must enforce the law evenly, and without regard to skin color, accent, or social status," she said. "We must prove the alarmists and the cynics wrong." (And, I just have to ask, without the aid of skin color, accent, and other pesky identifying features of an illegal immigrant, how does one come to the conclusion that one is an illegal immigrant? We all know about the deep-seeded problem of blue-eyed, blond haired Swedes crawling the streets of Phoenix. And, for that matter, how did the author of this article conclude that the 13- year boy they interviewed was a "fair" opinion on the subject without the benefit of profiling? It seems to me that profiling was an acceptable policy when it came to every war America has entered- until the PC age that says we may NEVER identify our enemy!)

Brewer, who faces a tough election battle and growing anger in the state over illegal immigrants, said the law "protects every Arizona citizen."

Anti-immigrant anger has swelled in the past month, after rancher Rob Krentz was found dead on his land north of Douglas, near the Mexico border. Authorities believe he was fatally shot by an illegal immigrant possibly connected to a drug smuggling cartel.

Arizona has an estimated 460,000 illegal immigrants, and its harsh, remote desert serves as the corridor for the majority of illegal immigrants and drugs moving north into the U.S. from Mexico.

U.S. Rep. Raul Grijalva, a Democrat, said he closed his Arizona offices at noon Friday after his staff in Yuma and Tucson were flooded with calls this week, some from people threatening violent acts and shouting racial slurs. He called on businesses and groups looking for convention and meeting locations to boycott Arizona. (And now, how can you say he is a "representative" of this state or the United States? It seems to me like he's looking out for the Mexican parliament)

The bill's Republican sponsor, state Rep. Russell Pearce of Mesa, said Obama and other critics of the bill were "against law enforcement, our citizens and the rule of law." (Amen)

Pearce said the legislation would remove "political handcuffs" from police and help drive illegal immigrants from the state.

"Illegal is illegal," (Though, apparently, a law was necessary to confirm that it is, in fact, illegal to be here illegally- thank you for that) said Pearce, a driving force on the issue in Arizona. "We'll have less crime. We'll have lower taxes. We'll have safer neighborhoods. We'll have shorter lines in the emergency rooms. We'll have smaller classrooms." (Amazing, ain't it?)

Thanks to biggovernment.com for this post!

In March 2000 the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN) organization of Massachusetts held its 10 Year Anniversary GLSEN/Boston conference at Tufts University. This conference was fully supported by the Massachusetts Department of Education, the Safe Schools Program, the Governor’s Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth, and some of the presenters even received federal money. During the 2000 conference, workshop leaders led a “youth only, ages 14-21″ session that offered lessons in “fisting” a dangerous sexual practice. During the same workshop an activist asked 14 year-old students, “Spit or swallow?… Is it rude?” The unbelievable audio clip is posted here. Barack Obama’s “Safe Schools Czar” Kevin Jennings is the founder of GLSEN. He was paid $273,573.96 as its executive director in 2007. Jennings was the keynote speaker at the 2000 GLSEN conference.

kevin jennings glsen conference

Barack Obama’s “Safe Schools Czar” was the keynote speaker at the GLSEN/Boston Conference at Tufts University in 2000. High school students at the conference learned about fisting and watersports from the GLSEN activists. Jennings is seen here holding the conference program. (Via Mass Resistance)

Unfortunately for GLSEN, undercover journalists with Mass Resistance recorded these outrageous sessions at Tufts University. The audio was later leaked to a local radio station. This created such an uproar that GLSEN leaders were forced to apologize for their disgusting behavior.

 

Despite the controversy, Barack Obama’s Safe Schools Czar Kevin Jennings and his GLSEN organization did nothing to clean up their act. In fact in 2001 activists handed out “fisting kits” to the children and teachers who attended the GLSEN conference.

But that’s not all. The children who attended Kevin Jennnings’ 2005 GLSEN Conference also left with their own “Little Black Book – Queer in the 21st Century”.

This book exposes the young teens to–
Rimming – Fisting – Water Sports (Pi$$ Play) – Toys
It’s what every teen needs to know…

fistgate pamphlet

And in case any of the teens got bored, GLSEN was also kind enough to include a list of the local gay bars in the booklet distributed to high school students.

Because of his excellent work with children Kevin Jennings was promoted by Barack Obama to be his Safe Schools Czar. Today he’s running the Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools in the US Department of Education.
Do you feel safe now?

I’m going to attempt a post on race relations. I say attempt because I hold contempt at the PC route this country has taken in regards to discussing racism in America. Rest assured it is alive and well. I think, unfortunately, the mouths of white people have been taped and closed from being able to talk about this very subject for fear of being labeled a "racist". The white population, and now the right-wing conservatives in this country, have effectively been silenced from discussing their political disdain for Barack Obama or any other politically active black figure, barred from any right to an opinion solely based on the claim of racism.

The conservative movement has been accused of racism since our Marxist President took office- our exception to him cannot possibly be because we vehemently disagree with his radical policies? Nor because we believe in the conservative principles that made this country great? No. And the left has found the perfect, indefensible way to silence us- claim it is racism! And the good white and/or conservative Americans have allowed themselves the gag order! Racism- the last, "great" argument for the ignorant elite, threatened by a right-wing power, unanticipated.

Equally as startling, however, is the way that the left has guilt-tripped some black Americans into accepting socialist policies or risk being labled a race-traitor. There is a brilliant, conservative, black political commentator (her name escapes me at the moment!), who is often times a contributer on Fox News, who wrote a wonderful article on this very subject. She convicted on the necessity of holding true, first, to our conservative values rather than our many unecessary allegiances, including race allegiance.

I realize this to be sensitive subject matter, but I have had it up to here with being called a racist because I believe in small government, low taxes, am staunchly pro-life, pro-Israel, pro-capitalism, pro-Jesus, and pro-America being the shining city on the hill. And I know many black Americans who feel the exact same way- in fact, I have been privledged enough to stand with them at tea parties and out on the corner on election day.

Not a one of us is motivated by race- we are motivated by righteous principles and a disdain for the liberal infection that is disolving our great country.

It’s time to remove the gag order and call this president what he really is- Hitler! And Hitler was white! Does that also make me racist against whites? Welcome to 30′s Germany- WAKE UP, AMERICA!

torahIn defiance of US President Barack Obama’s call on Israel to stop settlement activity, defiant settlers built a new outpost on Friday morning between Migron and Kochav Ya’acov.

Settlers dedicate a Torah scroll in the West Bank outpost of Maoz Esther, which has been dismantled and rebuilt several times in recent weeks.

At the outpost, which they named Oz Yehonatan, the settlers built a wooden structure they mockingly called the “Obama Hut,” saying it was a sign of appreciation for the US president for his actions that had led to a dramatic rise in the number of outposts.

On Thursday, settlers and right-wing activists once again rebuilt the illegal Maoz Esther outpost that was dismantled on Wednesday by security forces.

Among the structures erected was a synagogue in which activists placed a Torah scroll dedicated in the name of Yohonadav Hirschfield, who was killed in last year’s terror attack at Jerusalem’s Mercaz Harav Yeshiva.

One of the activists said of Obama, “He’s an Arab Muslim and a gentile, he is fighting against the Jewish people and has declared that he will continue to do so. We already stated our intention to continue to build, no matter who is fighting us – Egypt, Germany or the US.”

Among the 200 activists that gathered at the Maoz Esther site was Hebron-Kiryat Arba Chief Rabbi Dov Lior, who explained why peace was impossible in the Middle East.

“It’s all illusions. With these savages, there was never peace, there is no peace and there will not be peace,” he said.

“It’s not because we don’t want it, but because they are enemies of peace. We just have to hope that our entire country is cleared of terrorists, their supporters, their backers and their camels. They should all be sent to Saudi Arabia.”

National Union MK Michael Ben-Ari voiced his support for the settlers’ actions saying the West Bank’s Jewish communities were an established fact.

“Obama, in his audacity, dreams that 350,000 Jews can be removed from Judea and Samaria, but they are a fact that cannot be changed,” he was quoted by Army Radio as saying.- Irsael.jpost.com

americanflagThis week, President Barack Obama is scheduled to give a major address in Cairo to the Muslim world. He is likely to reiterate what he has stated previously to Muslim audiences, that America has no battle with Islam, deeply respects Islam and the Muslim world, and apologizes for any anti-Muslim sentiment that any Americans may express.

 
Here is what an honest address would sound like:
 
“Thank you for the honor of addressing the Egyptian people and the wider Muslim world.
 
“I am here primarily to dispel some of the erroneous beliefs many Muslims have about America and to thereby reassure you that America has no desire to be at war with the Muslim world.
 
“To my great disappointment, many Muslims have come to believe that my country has declared war on Muslims and Islam.
 
“Because of this widespread belief, I said in an interview with al-Arabiya a few months ago, that we need to restore “the same respect and partnership that America had with the Muslim world as recently as 20 or 30 years ago.”
 
“Lets’ look a little deeper at that relationship. For the truth is, as noted by the Pulitzer-Prize winning columnist for the American newspaper the Washington Post, Charles Krauthammer, in the last 20-30 years America did not just respect Muslims, it bled for Muslims. We Americans engaged in five military campaigns on behalf of Muslims, each one resulting in the liberation of a Muslim people: Bosnia, Kosovo, Kuwait, Afghanistan and Iraq.
 
“Bosnia and Kosovo, as well as the failed 1992-93 Somalia intervention to feed starving African Muslims — in which] 43 Americans were killed — were all humanitarian exercises. In none of them was there a significant U.S. strategic interest at stake. So, in fact, in these 20 years, my country, the United States of America has done more for suffering and oppressed Muslims than any other nation, Muslim or non-Muslim.
 
“While I recognize that gratitude is the rarest positive human quality, I need to say — because candor is the highest form respect — that America has not only not received little gratitude from the Muslim world, it has been the object of hatred, mass murder, and economic attack from Muslim individuals, groups, and countries.
 
“Just to cite a few of many examples from the last 40 years:
 
“In 1973, Muslim terrorists attacked the American embassy in Sudan and murdered our country’s ambassador, Cleo Noel, and the chief deputy of the mission, George C. Moore. Later in 1973, the Arab oil embargo against America sent my country into a long and painful recession. In 1977, Muslim militants murdered the U.S. ambassador to Lebanon, Frances E. Meloy, and Robert O.Waring, the U.S. economic counselor. In 1979 radical Muslims violently attacked my country’s embassy in Teheran, and for 14 months held American diplomats hostage, often in appalling conditions. In 1998, Muslim militants bombed the American embassy in Nairobi, killing 12 Americans and 280 Kenyans, and bombed our embassy in Tanzania, killing another 11 Americans. Then, on Sept. 11, 2001, 19 Muslims who had been living in America slit the throats of American pilots and flight attendants and then flew airplanes into civilian buildings in New York City, burning 3,000 innocent Americans to death.
 
“So, my friends here in Egypt, between America and the Muslim world, who exactly has been making war on whom?
 
“I have enormous differences with my predecessor, President George W. Bush. But please remember that less than a week after thousands of Americans were slaughtered in the name of your religion, President Bush went to the Islamic Center in Washington, D.C., and announced that Islam was a religion of peace. Moreover, in a country of 300 million people, of whom only a few million are Muslim, there is virtually no recorded incident of anti-mosque or other anti-Muslim violence despite the butchery of 9/11 and the popular support for Osama Bin Laden that we saw in the Muslim world after 9/11.
 
“I ask you to please ask yourselves what Egypt’s reaction would have been had 19 Christians, in the name of Christianity, slaughtered 3,000 Egyptians. How would the Christians of Egypt and elsewhere in the Middle East have fared?
 
“As it is, because of persecution by Muslim majorities, Christians have been leaving the Middle East in such great numbers that for the first time since Christ, there are large parts of the Middle East that have become empty of both Jews and Christians.
 
“Yet, at the same time, millions of Muslims have moved to Western countries and to America. It is fair to say that the freest, and often the safest, place in the world for a practicing Muslim is the United States of America.
 
“Muslim-Americans are treated exactly as other Americans are treated. It is exceedingly rare to hear any anti-Muslim bigotry in my country. And while there is some criticism of the Muslim world, but there is far more criticism of Christianity in America than of Islam.
 
“Unfortunately, in much of the Muslim world today anti-Jewish speeches and writing are frequently identical to the genocidal anti-Semitism one heard and read in Nazi Germany. This is a blight on your civilization. How can you seriously charge that America is at war with Islam when in fact it is much of the Islamic world that is at war with Jews and Christians?
 
“I know that you would like me to announce that America is abandoning its support for Israel. But every president since Harry Truman, Democrat and Republican, has been passionate about enabling Israel to defend itself from those who wish to destroy it. And that, dear Muslims, is the issue. America will continue to support a two-state solution to the Arab-Israeli dispute, but the issue has never really been about two states. It has always been about Palestinians and other Arabs and Muslims recognizing Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state.
 
“As a friend of Egypt and of the Muslim world, I want to say something from the bottom of my heart: The day the Arab world ceases obsessing over the existence of a Jewish state the size of Belize will be a great day for the Arab and Muslim worlds. Your obsession with Israel has cost you dearly in every area of social development. This is easily demonstrated. If Israel were destroyed — and the so-called “right of return” of millions of third-generation Palestinian refugees would ensure that outcome as effectively as would a nuclear device from Iran — what difference would that make to the Egyptian economy, to Egyptian lack of freedoms, or anything else that matters to Egyptians? In my opinion, none whatsoever. Preoccupation with Israel has simply enabled the Arab world to not look within for 60 years.
 
“Finally, my fellow Americans would feel more confident in American-Muslim relations if they had ever seen a large demonstration of Muslims anywhere against all the terror committed by Muslims in the name of Islam — whether in London, Madrid, New York, Bali, Cairo, or Mumbai. The mark of a great civilization — and Arab civilization was indeed once great — is a willingness to criticize itself.
 
“Thank you again for this opportunity to address you. I could have patronized you by exaggerating American misdeeds and ignoring yours. But I have too much respect for you.
 
“Shukran jiddan.”

obama-nopeAnother great post by Hal Lindsey…

The Democrat reaction to talk-show host Rush Limbaugh’s comment that he hopes President Obama “fails” reminds me of the classic line from the movie “Casablanca.”

As Inspector Renault pockets his winnings from the gambling tables, he orders “Rick’s Place” closed. When Humphrey Bogart’s character, Rick, protests, Renault (Claude Raines) exclaims loudly, “I’m shocked, shocked, to find that gambling is going on in here.”

The Democrats are shocked, shocked to find that Rush Limbaugh doesn’t want the socialist agenda of the most liberal president in American history to succeed. Shocked, I say!

It isn’t that Rush Limbaugh’s comments need defending – they don’t. America is not a monarchy or a dictatorship. We still have freedom of speech – at least, for the time being. What American president in our history has been above criticism?

America is a constitutional republic, not a socialist democracy. Obama has made no secret of his desire to advance socialist democratic principles. So he and his cohorts should expect vigorous objections from those who know and believe in the U.S. Constitution.

I don’t want to see Obama succeed in turning America into a socialist worker’s paradise, either. Socialism has been proven wrong in every place it has been tried.

The president is not the State. Wanting Obama to fail is not the same as wanting America to fail. Indeed, from Rush Limbaugh’s perspective, it is the equivalent of wanting America to succeed.

The outrage being ginned up by the Democrats is therefore phony on its face. It would be ridiculous to the point of humorous if it weren’t so revealing.

First off, it reveals the degree to which many Americans still regard President Obama as “The One.” They are evidently incapable of separating what is good for Barack Obama from what is good for America.

It is this group that scares me the most. Barack Obama is not America. He is America’s current and temporary leader.

The next president could reverse any or all of Obama’s policies as quickly as Obama reversed those of President Bush, which brings us to the second point about this phony outrage.

Entire factions of the Democrat Party not only announced their desire to see President Bush fail, but proclaimed their intention to actively work toward the failure of the Bush presidency.

There was no Bush policy too important to the country to be permitted to succeed, and no price too high to pay if it ensured his failure.

Even though young Americans were spilling their blood on foreign soil to win in Iraq, the phonies at home were arguing for their failure, so long as it meant President Bush’s failure.

The Democrats were so effective in convincing the public that it was possible to support the troops while hoping that they lose that they made losing the war part of their campaign strategy. As late as last year, Democrat James Clyburn admitted his fear that a favorable report from Gen. Petraeus about the Iraq war “could be a real problem for democrats.”

In August 2006, just before the mid-term elections that crowned Nancy Pelosi America’s first queen, a Fox News Opinion Dynamics Poll asked the question: Would you say you want President Bush to succeed or not?

Ninety percent of Republicans wanted him to succeed. Sixty-three percent of Independents wanted him to succeed. Fifty-one percent of Democrats said they did not. That’s a majority. A slim one, but a majority is a majority.

If wanting a presidential agenda to “fail” because you disagree with it is somehow un-American or disloyal, doesn’t that make the 51 percent of Democrats in this poll guilty also?

The most frightening thing about this whole Limbaugh smear campaign is how seriously many Americans are taking it. It shows that they must think Barack Obama is America. Seig Hiel!

muslims-and-obamaI received this as an email that included the original post. We had prior warning of Obama’s anti-Israel tendencies, particularly because of his tutelage under Khaldi- “Khalidi is a harsh critic of Israel, has made statements supportive of Palestinian terror and reportedly has worked on behalf of the Palestine Liberation Organization while it was involved in anti-Western terrorism and was labeled by the State Department as a terror group.” WND

And now, it seems, when given an opportunity to stand in support of Israel, Obama spits in the face of the very people who mourned, more than many of America’s own citizens, the 9-11 attacks and showed their solidarity and support of America during those bleak days by putting the American flag and the Israeli flag on the front of their major news sorce proclaiming their unity with America!

Gaza was not the victim! I repeat, Gaza was the offender! Hamas has fired thousands of Quassam rockets into Israeli towns with ZERO concern for her people, in fact, they are offering these acts of evil on an altar to Allah, and to kill an infidel- a Christian or a Jew, is as high as offering oneself up through martyrdom. They are AIMING for Jewish citizens.

Playing savior to the Islamic nation, this sympathy for Gaza ignores the years of assault enacted upon Israel. One has to wonder why he is comfortable taking in “refugees” from Israel’s response to her ongoing attacks, while seemingly ignoring the ongoing trauma Israel has undergone.

To quote Benjamin Netanyahu, “If the Arabs put down their weapons, there’d be no more violence. If the Jews put down their weapons, there’d be no more Israel.”

The problem, Obama, is not Israel! The answer is not Khalidi and his anti-West, anti-Israel eradication efforts! And the answer is certainly not spending millions of dollars  bringing Palestinian terror-monger immigrants to our backyards in the name of apologizing for our, necessary, War on Terror! Here’s the email…

“President Barack Obama has signed an executive order  
presidential determination allowing hundreds of thousands of  
Palestinians to resettle in the United States. Sure, what can go  
wrong when we allow hundreds of thousands of people who have  
been, as Mark Steyn memorably described, “marinated” in a “sick  
death cult,” who voted for Hamas, and 55% of whom support  
suicide bombings live here and at the American taxpayers’  
expense:

 By executive order, President Barack Obama has ordered the  
expenditure of $20.3 million in migration assistance to the  
Palestinian refugees and conflict victims in Gaza.

 The “presidential determination” which allows hundreds of  
thousands of Palestinians with ties to Hamas to resettle in the  
United States was signed on January 27 and appeared in the  
Federal Register on February 4.

 President Obama’s decision, according to the Register, was  
necessitated by “the urgent refugee and migration needs” of the  
“victims.”

 Few on Capitol Hill took note that the order provides a free  
ticket replete with housing and food allowances to individuals  
who have displayed their overwhelming support of the Islamic  
Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the parliamentary election of  
January 2006.Let’s review some of Barack Obama’s most recent  
actions since he was inaugurated a little more than two weeks  
ago:

 * His first call to any head of state as president was to Mahmoud  
Abbas, leader of Fatah party in the Palestinian territory.

 * His first one on one interview with any news organization was with  
Al Arabia television.

 * He ordered Guantanamo Bay closed and all military trials of  
detainees halted.

 * He ordered all overseas CIA interrogation centers closed.

 * He withdrew all charges against the masterminds behind the USS  
Cole and 9/11.
  *  Today we learn that he is allowing hundreds of thousands of  
Palestinian refuges to move to and live in the US at American  
taxpayer expense.

 Anyone else seeing a pattern here?”

nazi-soldiers“A mind anchored in God’s word won’t compromise, but when that anchor is removed, the current of “change” can carry that mind anywhere.” (Quotations mine)

I am unapologetically Christian. And not one of these ever-forming “New Age” Christians, emerging in an attempt to forever change the face of Christianity. I will provide more emphasis on this subject in a later post.

But it is important to note that I do filter my viewpoints on political policies through Scripture. 2 Timothy tells us “All scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” My thoughts, beliefs, and political philsophies are not my own, rather they represent the heart of the God that made me. And the truth to which I refer, is to the same truth to which Jesus was referring when he said, “For this reason I was born and for this reason I came into the world, to testify to the truth.”

It is not enough to hold to any form of opinion if that opinion is not based in truth. Then it is whimsical at best, deceptive at worst. In order to gain the trust of those to whom I am blessed to speak to in this, my virtual “pulpit”, you have my commitment to bring truth, by the grace of God, in a world spinning with deception.

 The aforementioned quote represents a true, but harsh reality. That a mind who is open to wherever the current trend takes him is in serious danger of being carried away when the under-current becomes too strong. And despite the hearts that have, by this time, woken up, and realized what we are seeing happen in this nation, those souls who cast the vote in Obama’s direction are joining the rest of us in an unsettling knowledge that the damage he is inflicting is irreperable, again, but for prayers and petitions made by God’s elect and His supreme decision to show mercy on this nation.

In the book of Jonah, we are told of a prophet of God who was asked by Him to go to the city of Ninevah and proclaim a coming judment within 40 days if they did not repent of their evil ways and their idolatry. At first Jonah relented, but eventually stood on a box in the middle of the city and gave the message of God, a warning, of the impending doom. They repented and God held off His judgment and in it’s place, provided mercy.

Mercy is the character trait of God we are most comfortable with. The concept of judgment is one most wrestle with and eventually ignore alltogether. But, we must realize, that God’s justice cannot sleep forever. We have been watching the moral fiber of this country unravel at the speed of light for quite some time, but we just jumped on the fast track.

We have, America, elected the most ungodly president this nation has ever had, elected on the platform of change. The change that will carry us away. Obama’s newly appointed HHS (Health and Human Services) secretary, Kathleen Sebelius, is “pals” with America’s leading abortion doctor, George Tiller, who specializes in late-term, meaning babies that could survive outside the womb, abortions. I wonder what her version of “health and human services” would be. Do you suppose there was a more sinister reason behind his appointment?

Obama recently did away with a “moral-clause” bill, initially enacted by President Bush, that allowed doctors and health-care providers to opt-out of performing abortions if it violated their religious or moral beliefs.

And we know that FOCA is sitting on the Congress floor as we speak. It has yet to be formally announced, but was referred to by Barack Obama on the campaign trail, as “one of the first pieces of legislation” he would sign into existence. FOCA, or Freedom of Choice, would eliminate all legal barriers to abortion, allowing abortion at any point in the pregnancy, for any reason, it would eliminate the need for adult-consent for minor-abortions, it would expand tax-payer funded abortions, nationally and globally, which is essentially occurring with the over $300 million tax-payer dollars that go to Planned Parenthood as it is, and the newly over-run Mexico City policy that ensures our money goes to funding abortion overseas. Scripture tells us, “Things that cause people to sin are bound to come, but woe to that person through whom they come.” What about financed by?

It is obvious that Obama is set on an all-out assault on the pre-born, afterall, “he doesn’t want <anyone> punished by a baby.” Those who think this “climate change” or “global warming”, or whatever they’re calling it now to fit their schemes, thing, is unrelated, needs to wake up and take a closer look. While one may think, “So what? What’s the big deal? We can recycle and drive better cars.” You are being deceived. And this isn’t even to address his new policy of carbon credits and caps- which is foolhearty and further perpetuates this expanded governmental control and his tyrannical regime, but it addresses a much more serious consequence… If people truly are the cause of global warming, then what is the long-term answer? Population control, which now explains our new contributions to the UN Population Control fund, which funds forced abortions and forced sterilizations in other countries, but ensures that it will one day come to our own borders. Right here in the good ol’ US of A.

Can you imagine this? This isn’t China- where evil leaders and oppressive regimes have made child-bearing a violation of law, but this WILL come to America. Whatever is necessary to control a harsh and changing climate. Something tells me God would have thought about that before he gave us a mandate to “be fruitful and multiply!”

And these are just the issues of abortion. On the topic of nationalized healthcare, we’re talking about giving the government control of the ultimate decision of who lives and who dies. Senior citizens will be compromised on the premise that they are no longer contributing to society and they are expendable through euthanasia and assisted suicide. And it won’t be restricted just to that group, but to others deemed weak or unnecessary to society. Those with physical disabilties, mental impairments, children with incurable forms of cancer, or even babies with cleft palates. Cleft palates? Why, that’s unfathomable and would never happen! It is happening- in Denmark! Why poor the money into them if they are not worth the cost- especially if they are dying? We can prove this depreciation of life- Washington just signed into law assisted suicides!

This is not the brutally violent civilizations of past empires, represented in movies like “300″ where the leaders of the day simply tossed perceived weak children off a cliff. Again, I repeat, this is coming to the shores of a town near you!

More recent history will tell of a young leader, elected on a platform of change, who did indeed bring promised change. It will go down in history as the most God-awful act of human, not even human, depravity ever perpetrated against man. It began as a small, cancerous growth and eventually grew to such a point that it was unstoppable and incurable, leaving in it’s wake 50 million dead. Jews will refer to it as the Shoah, but most know it as the Holocaust. How could I ever perceive that such an atrocity would visit our land? How could I question a president of the United States in such a way, or show concern that he is even capable of perpetrating such a nightmare? I ask ,why not? Shouldn’t we ever be discerning? Watching? And continuing to ask questions of a regime who has already sworn a Holocaust of the unborn?

Change is here, ladies and gentleman, I just think you may get more than you bargained for. As in the book of Jonah, don’t say I didn’t warn you!

hands-over-face

 

 

In a post on World Net Daily, author David Limbaugh describes, with potent accuracy, the concerns of conservatives ’round this nation. It is refreshing to know that the right-wing public still exists out there, considering the amount of casualties our side lost to the Obamessiah.
And while I’m sure many that voted for him are now scratching their heads, wondering what they did, there remains an ever-dedicated majority who hold firm that it is still all Bush’s fault, and their “fearless leader” will emerge victorious.
“Remember when liberals were wringing their hands and accusing President George W. Bush of being a dictator and a king? Of course, that was breathtakingly absurd, but what’s really ironic is that these people actually want a king, provided they get to pick him.
 
As Barack Obama feverishly presses forward with his socialist agenda, one wonders whether any act of executive overreaching might cause the compliant, nay, conspiratorial Democratic congressional majorities to pause or, better yet, to resist.
 
I think not. Every assault Obama inflicts on the budget is met by Congress with: “Thank you, sir. May I have another?”
 
I realize liberals take umbrage at the pejorative terms “Marxist” and “socialist,” but in invoking them, my purpose is neither to exaggerate nor to provoke. If the terms bother you, could you please tell me how Obama would be behaving differently if he were a socialist or Marxist just elected in this country?
 
Better yet, given the policies Obama and Congress are cramming down our throats, please tell me why you even mind those terms? Why not wear them proudly?
 
Just before the election, I wrote: “With (Obama’s) ideas about spreading the wealth, entrepreneurial selfishness … (and) the inherent evil of corporations … are you not concerned at just how far Obama might go if he’s got a nearly veto-proof Democratic majority at his back? … Before our very eyes, America stands poised to elect as president the most radical man ever to run for this office credibly. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.”
 
Some, including certain highbrow right-wingers, accused me of hyperventilating. They told us knuckle draggers that Obama is pragmatic and centrist and that we should just calm down and give him a chance. We responded that we didn’t have the luxury of being calm, because if we let our guard down, Obama would rush through his agenda before we had time to react.
 
Tell me, now that we’re five weeks into this administration, which of us has egg on his face?
 
It’s not just elitist conservatives. I’d also like to know how self-professed conservative Democrats, who have always vehemently denied their liberalism, would explain their blind faith today. At this point, I swear they’d walk off a cliff for Obama if he told them to.
 
Even if some on both sides of the aisle are slow to grasp this, what we’re really witnessing here is the fury of liberal power unleashed. In the name of compassion and fairness, they are exerting increasing control over our lives and using the economic crisis as cover, as they seek federal power to:
 
·         Further dictate our children’s education curricula. “In this budget, we will end education programs that don’t work.” Where did we get the idea that Washington is better-suited for this than our local school boards?
 
·         Increase their control over Americans’ private health care decisions.
 
·         Run banks and set salary caps for corporate CEOs – something that ought to horrify free-market adherents everywhere, even those suspicious of excessive corporate salaries.
 
·         Prohibit corporate perks and private-jet trips while sanctioning their own taxpayer-sponsored ones.
 
·         Decide who is worthy of being relieved of irresponsible home-purchasing decisions.
 
·         Discourage charitable giving with their further phasing out of charitable deductions.
·         Dole out money to “worthy” municipalities in order to position themselves as micromanaging federal enforcers: “Nobody messes with Joe Biden.”
 
·         Replace the free market as the engine of economic growth. You can’t watch Obama operate without concluding he truly believes that government, not the private sector, generates wealth in this nation.
 
·         Be the arbiter of income distribution for all citizens.
 
·         Impose paralyzing cap and trade mandates on private corporations based on dubious, disputed, non-consensus-based “science,” which amounts to nothing more than another tax on private industry and flies directly in the face of Obama’s promises to be friendly to small business.
 
Almost as alarming as the foregoing, President Obama is engaged in what seems to be a deliberate effort to talk down the economy for the presumed purpose of ensuring our panic mode represses a stock market recovery long enough to fuel his frantic agenda.
 
Adding insult to injury, at a time when these liberals are growing government in areas never contemplated by our founders nor authorized by the Constitution, they are eviscerating the defense budget, relaxing our foreign policy toward enemy dictators and, in effect, unilaterally declaring the war on terror over and forcing us to revert to our pre-9/11 mode of treating the war as a law enforcement matter.
 
If we could afford to let down our guard and sleep during this period, I’d be inclined to do so and ask whether someone would please be so kind as to awaken me when this nightmare is over.”
