I didn't get to watch the debate on Monday night, but I have heard a lot of commentary. The winner was this one or that one really came on strong. Michelle B. announced that she was running for president.
All this seems, on the surface to be very nice. However, the venue and the Network did not allow for the candidates to answer any really tough questions.
Mr. Cain, would you chose thick or thin crust? Mr Romney, if you order wings do you want them hot or mild? Ms. Bachman, do you like Elvis or Johnny Cash? I know that some people want the republicans to be soft and wimpy, but I prefer to have a candidate that will tear into the issues that are ripping apart our country. The economy and the role that President Obama has played in it's destruction. Illegals who get free health care and free education and don't pay taxes. The wars in Libya and Yemen and why we should not be involved. Obama Care that will tear apart the very fabric of good health care. High gas prices that can be brought down if we just simply drill here and drill now. Jobs, Jobs, Jobs, and the fact that Mr. Obama has not brought us back to any form of growth in our economy.
Where is the backbone and guts we need to lead us to an awakening of the American Dream? We need a Leader not a Politician who thinks he looks good to the voters. Give us something to grab hold of, a little hope that things are going to be fixed and the dream of this once great nation will again be within the grasp of anyone who wants to reach for it. Or should we just consider the idea that we need to move away to another country where all of the jobs have gone. It is time to stand up for truth and throw out the progressives who want to change this to a ruling class/slave class society, because quite frankly I do not want to be a slave.

The Way of Destruction
This is a personal thought that I have been having today.
In Matthew Chapter 7, Jesus is still giving His sermon telling the people what the kingdom of God looks like. He says, " In everything treat people the way you want them to treat you...." Then as He goes on he says something that would have raised eyebrows in that time. "Enter through the narrow gate, for the gate is wide that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it. for the gate is small and the way is narrow that leads to life, and there are few that find it. So beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves."
How appropriate are these words for today? So many people have jumped on the band wagon of things like "global warming", the need to reduce the use of fossil fuels, big government, labor unions, and many other ideas that are leading our nation down the broad or wide path to destruction. Now before you get all upset with me allow me a chance to explain.
First, I agree that we have a responsibility to take care of this earth. After all it is the only one we have. However, when we decide that man made global warming is so devastating to the future of this planet and we must reduce carbon emissions, then we have a lot of sheep following the "leader" to destruction. God created this earth and gave man dominion over it. This does not mean he can destroy it, he doesn't have the ability. Stop for a minute and think about this, solar and wind energy make up less than 2% of our current need. Experts also say that the technology is several years away that will allow it to produce more than tha amount. Now the federal government and the EPA have put rules into place that have changed the rules on coal fired power plants, and AEP, an energy provider in Ohio and West Virginia is closing 5 production facilities and 600 people are losing their jobs. Is this not leading this nation to destruction?
Second, While labor unions have had their place in helping the workers get better pay and benefits, they have now come to the point where they use membership dues to fund liberal-progressive government ideas that continue to devastate our nation. When public employees, who are paid by taxpayers, start making more and more demands that cause the taxpayers to revolt, we know there is a problem. Most of the people in the unions, I believe, are good people. they are simply pawns in the big game and being used. When the Obama administration gives billions to labor unions for bailouts and then gives them waivers on the health care, there has to be a problem.
Now we are expected to just sit back and take whatever the government wants to do with our money. Well I say that I will not be lead down the side path that leads to destruction. I will chose the narrow way of Jesus Christ and allow Him to lead me to Life.
We have a choice, We can turn our hearts back to God the creator of all things and humble ourselves before Him. This will lead to a renewal of this great nation and a great people . but, if we continue down the wide path, this nation is destined to fail, and I believe this is exactly what The enemies of God want.
There are some many more examples of this destructive behavior but for now it is time to "Wake up Church, and wake up America."

EPA Tactics of Destruction
I received this in an email and it is truly disturbing. Our Freedoms are under attack as well as our financial futures.
"This is truly Obama's EPA. This was his stated agenda before he was elected president. Should we be surprised that he is taking this action against the American people now?

| Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin, the former governor of coal-producing West Virginia, is blasting the Obama administration for using the Environmental Protection Agency to regulate coal-fueled power plants out of business. On Thursday, American Electric Power company announced that to comply with a series of EPA regulations, it will close five coal-fired plants -- three in West Virginia and one each in Ohio and Virginia -- at a net cost of 600 jobs. American Electric Power is one of the largest electric utilities in the United States, delivering electricity to more than 5 million customers in 11 states. " How can we stop this? First we must let our representatives know that we are aware and we want this to stop. Second, we must make sure Obama does not get re-elected! |

Government Waste
I got this from a website that is posted by Heritage.Org.--- Dirtyspendingsecrets.com.
2.6 million dollars was spent from the stimulus to teach Chinese prostitutes to drink more responsibly on the job.
1125 US Postal workers are given specific intructions to do absolutly nothing every day costing 50 million annually.
25 billion dollars are spenmt each to maintain vacant and unused federal properties each year.
123 billion dollars are spent by the Government every year on programs that help no one at all.
The 2009 stimulus package paid for Mascot costumes, eletric golf carts, and a Unuiversity study of how much alcohol freshman women required before agreeing to have sex.
I think we really need to send a strong message to our representatives that this wil no onger be acceptable practice.

The Doom of Our Freedom
From Reuters June 8, 2011
President Barack Obama on Tuesday urged European countries and bondholders to prevent a "disastrous" default by Greece and pledged U.S. support to help tackle the country's debt crisis.

After a meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, he stressed the importance of German "leadership" on the issue - a hint that he expects Berlin to help - while expressing sympathy for the political difficulties European Union countries face in helping a struggling member state.
How can Mr. Obama think that we need to give more to Greece after they were already given, What was it? 160 billion dollars already. However, because the Government in Greece cannot get control of a society of takers, They now need more.
Is this the one thing we need to do to stabilize the world economy? Or should we consider the need to stand firm in our own resolve to fix the problems we have here. this nation is fast becoming a nation of "takers". the more the Government gives the more we want. When does it end? We cannot keep going in this direction and expect to survive. maybe that is exactly what Mr. Obama and his cronies want, a nation that is no longer the a leader in this world. We will become just like all the other nations that have been ruined by taking more from the "rich" and giving to the "poor". What can we expect if we allow this to continue? Is this the change we can hope for? A dead end life with no more opportunity to pull ourselves up and become something or someone of significance.
Wake up America before it is no longer called America the land of the free and the home of the brave.

The talk of the town
With so much going on in the news today, it is hard to pick a subject to write about. So, I thought I would just give you my two cents worth about the state of our nation.
We are in deep trouble because there are not enough people who will think for themselves and use a little common sense. Politicians are fighting over how to fix the economy. Wow, as if this is such a hard thing. Take a look at the history of our economics. Every time we have reduced taxes and opened up more opportunity to free market solutions, we have seen growth. Every time we increase taxes and rely on the government our economy tanks. Think about for just a moment. Conservatives believe that the only way to create jobs is by allowing job creators some freedom to move in the direction they think is right, within the confines of law and public safety. Liberals believe we should raise the taxes of these job creators because it is not "fair' the amount of money they make off the peoples backs. Is it hard to understand what is going on here? I don't think so.
From the late 19th and early 20th centuries Progressives have tried to convince the people the more they trust the government the more they will get from government. Thus a welfare state. No more personal responsibility.
I believe that personal responsibility is the answer to the problems we face in our nation today. If people would become responsible for their own lives and the lives of their children, teaching them personal responsibility, we would see the rise of our nation back to it's glory. However, we have those who believe that people cannot take care of themselves nor can they make choices that will lead them to prosperity.
Even the Bible tells us that we have personal responsibility for working out our own salvation with fear and trembling. When people stop following the Biblical pattern, they always get on the wrong track. Now that our nation and it's public forum have attempted to remove God, the Bible is no longer looked to for guidance. Instead we look to the Elites in the education system and believe they know all the right answers.
We must stop being sheep led to the slaughter house and become the leaders that God has created us to be. If we could convince people to take a new approach then we would see less of these People in the news making bad choices that ultimately lead to their destruction.
God Bless.

What is this costing taxpayers?
This article came to my email today and the truth is I am not at all suprised. The CBO is always to low in their cost estimates because it seems they are not at all a non-partisan group. They are more group that does eerything they can to make the president and liberal democrats look good. In the end it always back fires because everything this administration does is leading us to bankruptcy and destruction. If we do not change the course we are on, this nation will be a part of a massive one world government.
(CNSNews.com) – The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) says the real cost of the federal government guaranteeing the business of failed mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is $317 billion -- not the $130 billion normally claimed by the Obama administration.
In a report delivered to the House Budget Committee on June 2, the CBO said a “fair value” accounting of guaranteeing the two defunct mortgage companies – known as Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs) – was more than twice as high as the Office of Management and Budget had accounted for. (For the full story go to CNSNews.com)
We cannot continue to throw money at this problem Keynsian economics have never worked and never will. How many of you think you can improve your personal finances by spending more money?
If you can't then how can the government?
