When my kids were in school and brought home a good paper, I would post it on the refrigerator. I wanted to show them how proud of them I was. Our boys could be counted on for some very good papers. Our daughter, younger than her brothers, started bringing home papers.
One day, however, she brought home a paper with a “0” on it. She had 10 questions, #1 – 10 with answers A – J. The directions were to draw a line from the questions to the right answers. She had done it completely wrong…totally. At first I was stunned that she couldn’t answer those simple questions, until I saw all the erasure marks. It turned out that she deliberately did the paper wrong…completely wrong. What this showed was that she was not stupid, but sly like a fox. I never did find out why she did her paper that way, but I posted it anyway. I figured she had to be pretty smart to do it completely wrong. (She never did it again, though.)
This brings me to our POTUS. Many writers are stating that they didn’t realize how “unskilled” he was, that he appeared to be “over his head” with this job being president, that in reality, he must be pretty stupid. He talks a good talk, but never produces any results. He appears to always be waiting for someone else to come forward with a plan of action, which he then criticizes. But it is becoming clearer and clearer. This inactivity, this indecision, this dithering, this political thinking of “spreading the wealth,” this blaming Bush, this blaming the Tea Party “terrorists,” shows that he is really stupid, or sly like a fox.
More and more writers are now saying that POTUS and FLOTUS are deliberately trying to bring down the country. While this may seem extreme, answer this: How can you rave against your enemy (the citizens) while you praise your friends (foreign Arab leaders)? How can your staff call any descent treasonous, terrorists, but not call those shooting at us terrorists? How can you espouse that we all must share the pain and sacrifice, but go on yet another vacation?
Now much has been said this week about his going to Martha’s Vineyard while America slides into yet another recession, but MSM counters that POTUS has only taken 69 days of vacation, while Bush had taken 180 days (at his ranch—the Western Whitehouse). Now if Mr. O had converted a few rooms of his Chicago home into a working office, there would be less squawk about his going home for a few days. But MV is NOT Chicago, nor a desert ranch in mid-Texas.
No, POTUS appears to have a concerted attack against America. How else would you explain the Cap ‘n’ Trade agreement that would put the average electric bill out of sight and prevent further coal plants for electricity?
How else could you explain his history with ACORN, and then have ACORN called “reprehensible” by a judge and fine them for voter fraud?
How else do you explain his affiliation with the Communist Party of USA, with them contributing to all his elections, including 2012?
While I have been pondering these questions, I had one hope; our military would be there to protect us, even if necessary, from an enemy within. I did wonder how Mr. O could bring down the military, and this week I found out—he is changing their retirement. When you have an all volunteer military, the last thing they need to worry about is their money, and their financial future. Now, O and company are messing with their retirement. Some soldiers as close to retirement as 19 years in the military, may be out of the retirement pay they expect. This will certainly curtail reenlistments.
If Mr. O were just stupid, or incompetent, he would by chance, get some things right. But he is completely wrong, wrong on purpose, it seems, wrong for the economy, wrong for balancing the budget, wrong for not having an independent energy policy, wrong for not trying to make logical cuts in the federal deficits, and wrong for America, at least the America I love and support. But, then, this is probably his plan all along.

Promises of 2008--Hope and Change
Well, the president should be happy now. He has finally found a way to bring America to her knees without firing an insurrection shot. When he had the interview with Scott Pelley of CBS, he stated he couldn’t guarantee Social Security checks would go out August 3rd if there was no debt limit increase deal. Now, he states 70 million recipients are in jeopardy of not getting their money in August. What he has done is kill every credit rating of people dependant upon their SS checks. No matter what happens with this debt crisis, government checks will no longer be able to be used as a secure income. At any whim, the president can hold them up.
In addition to retirees and disabled not getting their money, America’s credit score rating, currently AAA, will be reduced. When that happens, EVERYBODY’S credit score will go up; everyone who holds a credit card will have their rates jump beyond historical proportions. Millions of people will be forced into bankruptcy with any variable-rate debts.
Our POTUS has brought this country to the brink of destruction. Unemployment is creeping upward again. It is now much higher than the “fear factor” used when he ran against Bush. The fear factor number was an unemployment rate of 8%. Oh, to be at that number now.
He has brought the country to the brink of default by not bringing forth a written proposal to the House of Representatives, then accusing them of not negotiating in good faith. Negotiate with what? A speech and not a plan? His latest “negotiations” with the speaker of the House brought about an exchange where the Speaker walked away saying, as soon as he (the Speaker) agrees with the president to get a debt limit deal, POTUS “moves the goal posts.” Now, the Speaker refuses to negotiate with the President. And POTUS calls him “uncooperative.”
He has removed the flag from most areas of the White House, and brought in Arab décor. He has removed our Christian God from all aspects to the government and shows open partiality to Muslims faith.
He openly supports the homosexual agenda, and gay marriage, and refuses to support the Defending the Marriage Act, where marriage is between one man and one woman.
He openly supports abortion. He refuses to support the life of a fetus as being a person.
He openly supports the destruction of Israel by calling them obstructionists for defending their borders. He openly supports the Muslim Brotherhood, and sold them weapons, weapons that could be used against Israel.
He is against the Second Amendment, denies he is trying to instill gun controls, but is promoting an “under the radar” program to bring about registration of guns, registration of fire arm sales, recordkeeping of gun stores, and, if the “Fast and Furious” ATF program were totally brought to light, the leadership of this would be very close to 1600 PA Ave. POTUS has openly spoken for, and promoted the UN treaty to ban private citizens having firearms, as a way to control guns in America.
POTUS has spoken openly of wanting $10 per gallon gas. He has by presidential decree ordered automakers to increase their MPG to 56 MPG. Just this week the auto industry has openly rejected this as being way too expensive, and would cost more jobs.
POTUS states he wants America to be independent of foreign oil, but continues to block domestic exploration in areas where shale oil can be obtained, and where oil wells could be explored in American soil.
POTUS states he has a ‘dream’ about illegals, but obstructs states from keeping illegals out, and punishing people who help them get in.
POTUS states he is “for jobs” but, his NLRB is continuing to attack employers who promote the right to work.
POTUS has openly spoken of “increasing revenues” as a way around this debt crisis. This translates to increased taxes.
POTUS has openly spoken out against the military by not guaranteeing they will get paid in August.
POTUS has shut down NASA and the space program so we now have to hitch a ride with the Russians if we want to continue to participate in the space explorations.
Why is the truth so hard for POTUS to grip?
August 2 is just next week. Where IS YOUR money? Where is YOUR income coming from?
How do you like these current changes? Is there any HOPE left for America?
The only hope can be found in Revelation 22:20
“Even so, come, Lord Jesus.”

God Bless America!!! Please?
Genesis 13:12
“Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot…pitched his tent toward Sodom.”
As any Bible reader knows, this Bible reference is about Lot, Abram’s (Abraham) nephew choosing to move his family and herds toward Sodom, away from Abraham and Abraham’s influence. Lot and his uncle raised herds of animals, and the two men’s workers began to squabble about there not being enough land for all the animals. Abraham gave Lot the choice of where to go, and Abraham would take a different direction. The story continues where Lot changed from a herdsman on the plain of the Jordan, to a man sitting at the gate of the city of Sodom….we all know what Sodom was and what sodomy is, and what life-style it embraced.
Anyway, eventually, God in his wrath against the sins of Sodom and Gomorrah, destroyed the two cities. Lot, being a just man (prior to the sins of the city, was spared…he and his wife and daughters. His wife didn’t survive the trip, having liked the sinful city too much and looked back, God turned her into a pillar of salt.
This past week, POTUS flew to New York to embrace to alternative-lifestyle crowd, and the new state law allowing same-sex marriage. Senators and Representatives can pass whatever laws they choose, but, if they are contrary to God’s laws, they will eventually pay the price, and so will POTUS, for encouraging this mess and not speaking out against it. And so will America continue to pay.
God’s laws have not been repealed. Sin is sin, and it was back then and is still now. Jesus did not wink at sin. Many liberals say Jesus only showed love, he didn’t judge. But they are wrong. When the men brought the woman caught in adultery to Jesus, and he said those famous words, where are thine accusers? He wasn’t condoning the sin of adultery. He said to the woman he wouldn’t judge her at that time but “go and sin no more.”
America is in a cesspool of sin, whether it’s the “alternative” life style, adultery, lying, stealing, being disrespectful to your parents, cheating, coveting your neighbors stuff, killing the unborn, sin is sin, and America seems to think that it’s just a matter of choice.
Killing babies is considered choice, even though God creates every baby.
Jeremiah 1:5, KJV
“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee."
Our own (S.C.) state legislators couldn’t come to grips that a fetus is a person. They tried to pass a resolution giving a fetus personhood, but failed. Imagine, a baby isn’t a person!!
It’s choice when we vote for folks who never held a real job before becoming leaders of the free world. It’s choice when we believe the liberal media that Christians are “backward.” It’s choice in the name of “free speech” by the media to destroy conservatives who seek office. This choice shows their true colors.
Yes, it’s our choice, to follow the straight line of God’s word, or have this country perish.
The 4th of July, and the Coming Election
POTUS is cycling through another election for president. He said he wants to be reelected because he didn’t finish his agenda. And just what was his agenda prior to the 2008 election? To take down America? He didn’t come right out and say that, but he said it in “so many words.”
Dale Lindsborg , Washington Post reported,
(While this was reported earlier, prior to the 2008 vote, no one listened. Maybe they will now.)
From Sunday's 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, Televised "Meet the Press"
THE THEN Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag.
General Bill Ginn' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain WHY he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.
The General stated to Obama that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171...During rendition of the national anthem, when the flag is displayed, all present (except those in uniform) are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. Or, at the very least, "Stand and Face It".
'Senator' Obama replied:
"As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides". "There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression." "The anthem itself conveys a war-like message…You know, the bombs bursting in air and all that sort of thing."
Lindsborg continues:
Obama continued: "The National Anthem should be 'swapped' for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing'. If that were our anthem, then, I might salute it. In my opinion, we should consider reinventing our National Anthem as well as 'redesign' our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love.
It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we, as a Nation of warring people, conduct ourselves like the nations of Islam, where peace prevails - - - perhaps a state or period of mutual accord could exist between our governments ......." [char-de-whit emphasis added]
When I become President, I will seek a pact of agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation, have placed upon the nations of Islam, an unfair injustice which is WHY my wife disrespects the Flag and she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past". [char-de-whit emphasis added]
"Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put my hatred aside. I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path. My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First black Family.
Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America " [char-de-whit emphasis added]
(end of Lindsborg’s article.)
You can’t say he didn’t warn us. I, for one, never knew until today (6/27/11) that our POTUS and FLOTUS were flag burners. I did suspect he was out to destroy the country, but these words of his prior to the last election have not been rescinded or apologized for.
I will fly my flag of July 4th to symbolize the Freedoms we still have, and pray to God that we will have an election in Nov. 2012 for president. I pray God will be merciful to us and put a different person in office, a Christian-values person, who loves God, loves America, and believes children have value and personhood, even inside the mother’s womb.
As our Independence Day comes, I implore you all to do a few things to celebrate.
Hug a soldier.
Mourn the soldiers who gave the supreme sacrifice for our freedom.
Fly your American Flag.
Send a letter to POTUS that American is not going to bow to the enemies, and “make nice.” (I learned as a kid that “nice guys finish last.”)
And be very vigilant with the upcoming election. What you hear on mainstream media is probably NOT true.
Have a Happy 4th of July, and do something very American…Have a hot dog in a bun and a piece of apple pie.
God Bless America!!! Please?

The Greatness of America: How Long Will It Last?
The Greatness of America:
De Tocqueville of France, over a hundred years ago, visited America. Upon his return home he wrote: “I sought for the greatness of America in her harbors and rivers and fertile fields, and her mines and commerce. It was not there. Not until I went into the churches and heard her pulpits flame with righteousness did I understand the greatness of her power. America is great because she is good; and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.”
Liars & Thieves
When I was a kid my folks used to say that liars usually accused someone of things they were doing themselves. If someone said, Tommy stole my toys,” he usually meant, “he stole my toys before I could steal his.” The implication was a thief always thinks others are thieves, a liar thinks others are liars, a person with no patriotism usually has allegiance somewhere else. A person whose formative years were spent in Indonesia has little understanding of American patriotism, Boy Scouts, Little League, and playing by the rules.
Years ago the liberals were stating that there was a dire need for gun control because right-to-care advocates were buying guns that were “some-how” ending up in the hands of the drug cartels of Mexico. The resulting remedy was to enact very strict gun control so legally purchased guns didn’t fall in the hands of the drug cartel. Fast-forward to 2011, and you have this “Fast and Furious” gun program conducted BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, in Obama’s administration “smuggling” guns across the border to Mexico to drug lords!!!!!!! And NO ONE gave the o.k. NO ONE is responsible.
This smuggling operation led to the loss of lives of the very police sent down there to control these tyrants! I’m not sure of WHY they were selling guns in Mexico, except, THEY SAY, was to infiltrate the drug cartel organization. When the news came out that it was the U.S. Government behind getting these terrible guns into Mexico, and that innocent people died, the ATF supervisors response was “you had to scramble a few eggs to make an omelet.” Last count, according to a report on Foxnews.com was 2000 weapons allowed across the border under Obama’s watch led to shooting 150 or more Mexican law enforcement officers and soldiers.
It is already claimed by law-abiding 2nd Amendment Rights folks that Obama and his administration will use these deaths as reasons to target our 2nd amendment rights, and sign on to the UN pursuit of international gun control.
Wake Up, my dear friends. The gun they come after could be yours!
AT Taken Down
To my friends at American Thinker.com, it was interesting to learn that “somebody” must be getting rattled. Wednesday, June 15th American Thinker suffered what was called a “Denial of Service attack.” During peak traffic hours their website was down. It took their technicians much hard work to figure it out and get back online. AT Editor, Thomas Lifson, wrote, We are secure in the knowledge that we are making a difference when our enemies seek to silence us.”
Boeing and the NLRB Bullies
For those who have been following, Boeing has moved into North Charleston, SC, built a tremendously large plant to manufacture airplanes. They have an even bigger plant in Washington State, and continue to build planes there. One reason they came to South Carolina, is SC is a “right to work” state, where employees are protected from harassment about unions. Washington State is a union state. After years of work strikes that slowed down the production of airplanes, and increased their costs, Boeing decided they needed an alternative to work stoppages. They decided to come to South Carolina to buffer their production. They DID NOT CLOSE any sites in Washington. They DID NOT eliminate or reduce any jobs in Washington. In fact they continue to ADD jobs at that site. They have NOT REDUCED any benefits in Washington, or reduced any payroll.
Now, the NLRB has sued Boeing for “seeking revenge” against union workers for past work stoppages. The goal of NLRB is to have Boeing shut its plant in Charleston (even before it opens) and move these 1,000 jobs to Washington.
Several court hearings are taking place. One so-called administrative law judge advised Boeing they should settle with NLRB, or this could get costly.
A bully is someone who wants your lunch money just because he can punch you in the face to get it. So far, our illustrious president, elected is a large part by union money and strong arm tactics, who has said much about jobs, jobs, jobs lately has NOT spoken out against the NLRB. But then, he ignores the lawyers telling him he is breaking the law with the Libya campaign, so maybe HE is a bully, too.
From Bullets to Bucks
The POTUS is now circumventing the globe in his pursuit of reelection. He states he isn’t finished with his program to “change America.” My firm belief is he wants to change it into a Marxist, socialist country with no personal freedoms.
Anyway, as everyone knows, the economy is in the tank. Unemployment has risen again, and, no matter what the administration says, we have dipped for the second time into another recession. The housing market is volatile. If you don’t think so, try selling one, or buying one. If you don’t have cash, you will probably not qualify to buy. The banks have seriously changed what a person needs for credit ratings and down payments.
With the administration flexing its muscles via presidential decrees, no one knows what’s coming next. This has made this “recovery” very elusive. It is reported (Ed Lasky, AT editor, 6/7/11) that POTUS no longer receives economic updates or daily briefings. POTUS now blames the failing economy and higher unemployment on ATM machines taking jobs away from tellers. (He fails to reveal that some greedy banks now charge customers when they need to do service via a live person teller.) Anyway, electronics are the blame, along with George Bush, of course.
Whatever the cause, small business owners are hurt badly. One such person commented on Obama’s “shovel ready” jobs success. This person wrote that a little over two years ago he had a thriving business with a 25-person workforce. About 18 months ago he started laying off people. Eight months ago he laid off his last person. He closed up shop about four months ago, and is now waiting foreclosure on his home.
Gas prices went sky high since this POTUS took over. Just today (6/23) he decided to release some oil from our reserves. And the price of oil on the stock market dropped. Hopefully the prices at the pump will come down, but no guarantees.
How is that Hope and Change feeling now? The election will soon be here. Will you continue with Mr. Hope and Change? Or will you work diligently for returning America to fundamental believers in a living God?
The real answer is for America, and the politicians, to turn from their wicked ways and return to biblical principles. If we as individuals and as a people don’t forsake all forms of wickedness, and pray for God to forgive us for turning from Him, fall on our knees in prayer, and God maybe will forgive our sins and heal our land. Prayer and repentance. Washington is outlawing the first, and ignoring the second.
De Tocqueville of France, over a hundred years ago, visited America. Upon his return home he wrote: “I sought for the greatness of America in her harbors and rivers and fertile fields, and her mines and commerce. It was not there. Not until I went into the churches and heard her pulpits flame with righteousness did I understand the greatness of her power. America is great because she is good; and if America ever ceases to be good, America will cease to be great.”

Years ago the liberals were stating that there was a dire need for gun control because right-to-care advocates were buying guns that were “some-how” ending up in the hands of the drug cartels of Mexico. The resulting remedy was to enact very strict gun control so legally purchased guns didn’t fall in the hands of the drug cartel. Fast-forward to 2011, and you have this “Fast and Furious” gun program conducted BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, in Obama’s administration “smuggling” guns across the border to Mexico to drug lords!!!!!!! And NO ONE gave the o.k. NO ONE is responsible.
This smuggling operation led to the loss of lives of the very police sent down there to control these tyrants! I’m not sure of WHY they were selling guns in Mexico, except, THEY SAY, was to infiltrate the drug cartel organization. When the news came out that it was the U.S. Government behind getting these terrible guns into Mexico, and that innocent people died, the ATF supervisors response was “you had to scramble a few eggs to make an omelet.” Last count, according to a report on Foxnews.com was 2000 weapons allowed across the border under Obama’s watch led to shooting 150 or more Mexican law enforcement officers and soldiers.
It is already claimed by law-abiding 2nd Amendment Rights folks that Obama and his administration will use these deaths as reasons to target our 2nd amendment rights, and sign on to the UN pursuit of international gun control.
Wake Up, my dear friends. The gun they come after could be yours!
AT Taken Down
To my friends at American Thinker.com, it was interesting to learn that “somebody” must be getting rattled. Wednesday, June 15th American Thinker suffered what was called a “Denial of Service attack.” During peak traffic hours their website was down. It took their technicians much hard work to figure it out and get back online. AT Editor, Thomas Lifson, wrote, We are secure in the knowledge that we are making a difference when our enemies seek to silence us.”
Boeing and the NLRB Bullies
For those who have been following, Boeing has moved into North Charleston, SC, built a tremendously large plant to manufacture airplanes. They have an even bigger plant in Washington State, and continue to build planes there. One reason they came to South Carolina, is SC is a “right to work” state, where employees are protected from harassment about unions. Washington State is a union state. After years of work strikes that slowed down the production of airplanes, and increased their costs, Boeing decided they needed an alternative to work stoppages. They decided to come to South Carolina to buffer their production. They DID NOT CLOSE any sites in Washington. They DID NOT eliminate or reduce any jobs in Washington. In fact they continue to ADD jobs at that site. They have NOT REDUCED any benefits in Washington, or reduced any payroll.
Now, the NLRB has sued Boeing for “seeking revenge” against union workers for past work stoppages. The goal of NLRB is to have Boeing shut its plant in Charleston (even before it opens) and move these 1,000 jobs to Washington.
Several court hearings are taking place. One so-called administrative law judge advised Boeing they should settle with NLRB, or this could get costly.
A bully is someone who wants your lunch money just because he can punch you in the face to get it. So far, our illustrious president, elected is a large part by union money and strong arm tactics, who has said much about jobs, jobs, jobs lately has NOT spoken out against the NLRB. But then, he ignores the lawyers telling him he is breaking the law with the Libya campaign, so maybe HE is a bully, too.
From Bullets to Bucks
The POTUS is now circumventing the globe in his pursuit of reelection. He states he isn’t finished with his program to “change America.” My firm belief is he wants to change it into a Marxist, socialist country with no personal freedoms.
Anyway, as everyone knows, the economy is in the tank. Unemployment has risen again, and, no matter what the administration says, we have dipped for the second time into another recession. The housing market is volatile. If you don’t think so, try selling one, or buying one. If you don’t have cash, you will probably not qualify to buy. The banks have seriously changed what a person needs for credit ratings and down payments.
With the administration flexing its muscles via presidential decrees, no one knows what’s coming next. This has made this “recovery” very elusive. It is reported (Ed Lasky, AT editor, 6/7/11) that POTUS no longer receives economic updates or daily briefings. POTUS now blames the failing economy and higher unemployment on ATM machines taking jobs away from tellers. (He fails to reveal that some greedy banks now charge customers when they need to do service via a live person teller.) Anyway, electronics are the blame, along with George Bush, of course.
Whatever the cause, small business owners are hurt badly. One such person commented on Obama’s “shovel ready” jobs success. This person wrote that a little over two years ago he had a thriving business with a 25-person workforce. About 18 months ago he started laying off people. Eight months ago he laid off his last person. He closed up shop about four months ago, and is now waiting foreclosure on his home.
Gas prices went sky high since this POTUS took over. Just today (6/23) he decided to release some oil from our reserves. And the price of oil on the stock market dropped. Hopefully the prices at the pump will come down, but no guarantees.
How is that Hope and Change feeling now? The election will soon be here. Will you continue with Mr. Hope and Change? Or will you work diligently for returning America to fundamental believers in a living God?
The real answer is for America, and the politicians, to turn from their wicked ways and return to biblical principles. If we as individuals and as a people don’t forsake all forms of wickedness, and pray for God to forgive us for turning from Him, fall on our knees in prayer, and God maybe will forgive our sins and heal our land. Prayer and repentance. Washington is outlawing the first, and ignoring the second.

SCARY, read the USA obituary at the end
DR. WALTER WILLIAMS predicts that Obama can not lose the 2012 election.
IN ADDITION TO THE VOTING BLOCKS HE MENTIONS, THERE IS ANOTHER HUGE GROUP: THE NEARLY ONE-HALF OF ALL ADULTS DO NOT PAY ANY TAXES AND, IN FACT, MOST OF THEM RECEIVE MONEY FROM THE GOVERNMENT. THESE PEOPLE DO NOT WANT TO "SHAKE THE BOAT" TO DO ANYTHING TO STOP THE FLOW OF TAXPAYER MONEY TO THEMSELVES.
Dr. Williams prediction: Maybe you have read some newspaper articles written by Dr. Williams a conservative economist who happens to be Black. He has taught at several Universities and is currently teaching at George Mason University .
No Matter What
By Dr. Walter Williams
Can President Obama be defeated in 2012? No. He can't. I am going on record as saying that President Barak Obama will win a second term.
The media won't tell you this because a good election campaign means hundreds of millions (or in Obama's case billions) of dollars to them in advertising.
But the truth is, there simply are no conditions under which Barak Obama can be defeated in 2012.
The quality of the Republican candidate doesn't matter. Obama gets reelected. Nine percent unemployment? No problem. Obama will win. Gas prices moving toward five dollars a gallon? He still wins. The economy soars or goes into the gutter. Obama wins. War in the Middle East ? He wins a second term. America's role as the leading Superpower disappears? Hurrah for Barak Obama! The U.S. government rushes toward bankruptcy, the dollar continues to sink on world markets and the price of daily goods and services soars due to inflation fueled by Obama's extraordinary deficit spending? Obama wins handily.
You are crazy Williams. Don't you understand how volatile politics can be when overall economic, government, and world conditions are declining? Sure I do.
And that's why I know Obama will win. The American people are notoriously ignorant of economics. And economics is the key to why Obama should be defeated.
Even when Obama's policies lead the nation to final ruin, the majority of the American people are going to believe the bait-and-switch tactics Obama and his supporters in the media will use to explain why it isn't his fault. After all, things were much worse than understood when he took office.
Obama's reelection is really a very, very simple math problem. Consider the following:
1) Blacks will vote for Obama blindly. Period. Doesn't matter what he does. It's a race thing. He's one of us,
2) College educated women will vote for Obama. Though they will be offended by this, they swoon at his oratory. It's really not more complex than that,
3) Liberals will vote for Obama. He is their great hope,
4) Democrats will vote for Obama. He is the leader of their party and his coat tails will carry them to victory nationwide,
5) Hispanics will vote for Obama. He is the path to citizenship for those who are illegal and Hispanic leaders recognize the political clout they carry in the Democratic Party,
6) Union members will vote overwhelmingly for Obama. He is their key to money and power in business, state and local politics,
7) Big Business will support Obama. They already have. He has almost $1 Billion dollars in his reelection purse gained largely from his connections with Big Business and is gaining more everyday. Big Business loves Obama because he gives them access to taxpayer money so long as they support his social and political agenda,
8) The media love him. They may attack the people who work for him, but they love him. After all, to not love him would be racist,
9) Most other minorities and special interest groups will vote for him. Oddly, the overwhelming majority of Jews and Muslims will support him because they won't vote Republican. American Indians will support him. Obviously homosexuals tend to vote Democratic. And lastly,
10) Approximately half of independents will vote for Obama. And he doesn't need anywhere near that number because he has all of the groups previously mentioned. The President will win an overwhelming victory in 2012.

Obituary-Very Interesting!
Born 1776, Died 2008
It doesn't hurt to read this several times.
Professor Joseph Olson of Hamline University School of Law in St. Paul , Minnesota , points out some interesting facts concerning the last Presidential election:
• Number of States won by: Obama:19 McCain: 29
• Square miles of land won by: Obama:580,000 McCain: 2,427,000
• Population of counties won by: Obama:127million McCain: 143 million
• Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won by: Obama: 13.2 McCain: 2.1
Professor Olson adds: "In aggregate, the map of the territory McCain won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country.
Obama territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in low income tenements and living off various forms of government welfare..."
Olson believes the United States is now somewhere between the "complacency and apathy" phase of Professor Tyler's definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation's population already having reached the "governmental dependency" phase.
If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegal's - and they vote - then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.
MY Post Script:
If you don’t want the above to become truth and reality, we must work very hard. First, we must pray to God to protect us from The One. We also must show ourselves humbled by God’s grace by repenting of our own liberal ways. President Obama didn’t get elected in a vacuum. America has much to repent of.
2 Chronicles 7:14
“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
After we have fallen on our faces before God, we must roll up our sleeves and go to work to defeat The One. We must respond to every liberal editorial that slams the likes of Sarah Palin. We must inform media outlets that we will hold THEM accountable for the liberal bias on their news. We must campaign in person, on e-mails, blogs, and other outlets against The One.
What is at stake on this next election is that it could well be our LAST one. While the government has led to 99% of this problem economy, most of us have contributed to this situation ourselves by not being more independent of the government. It is virtually impossible to not be dependent on the government, and that is how they want it. Dependency grows power—by the government.
What is at stake is our country, our very lives. Stand Up America, and take back America from The One and his minions. The country we lose could be our own!!

Full Moon Arising
Help Wanted: Professional Tray Tracker:
Did you know that U.S. tax payers’ dollars, two million of them, are tied up in research following what children in school eat, and what they throw away. The funds come from funds originally earmarked for border security cameras along the US/Mexico border. While this camera surveillance program was unsuccessful in deterring illegals from coming into our country, the feds thought they could transfer these cameras and another $2,000,000 to upgrade it, to school cafeterias.
According to a blogger, Jeannie DeAngelis, these professional tray trackers will film students as they pick up their trays of lunch food, and observe what they throw away. Their job is two-fold: to document what types of food is chosen by the children, along with what they eventually discard. Next, these professional tray trackers will report the findings to the parents, (and maybe school officials) (and maybe even FLOTUS, in her ever enlarging trail of food police to spy on our children.) This is in the guise of viewing if the children choose mash potatoes or green beans, French fries or fruit. The food trays have bar codes on them to aid in the tracking. And there are the ever intrusive cameras. They say the goal is to reduce childhood obesity and diabetes.
Once they determine what kids like, the school will most likely change the menu to things kids hate, therefore reducing the food they are likely to eat. Dr. Roberto Trevino, of the San Antonio-based Social & Health Research Center, states that “the grant from the USDA will fund the study for four years.” He concluded that “the coming school year will be very experimental, with the programmers fine-tuning cameras and imaging software to accurately identify what’s a pear and what’s an apple.”
Joy! Joy!
Wit, and Wisdom, or the Lack Thereof!
Our POTUS seems to have a character trait that is very difficult to understand. When common sense would have a person to ponder why people disagree with him, POTUS just thinks it’s beneath him to have such a dialog. His modus of operation is to belittle and degrade. Take the border security problem. Everyone knows the feds have routinely dropped the ball on this monumental problem. But when states try to alleviate the situation by state laws, POTUS directed his legal teams to sue the states, not the illegals. Finally they consented to send more security guards to the area, but this has minimal affect. The fence everyone wanted is not yet finished, and the effect of this may be lessened by the tunnel that already is in place between Mexico and Arizona. When the president recently went to Texas to address this issue, it was plain that he was not there to help, but to belittle. He asked, What do they want? A mote? Alligators? Now, I believe a mote would be fine—if it went around Washington, DC, and included alligators.
Water. Water, Everywhere, and not a Drop to Drink
Most of us have heard of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). What POTUS couldn’t get by legislation, he is now taking by decree of the EPA. In an article by Jerry Shenk, of American Thinker, he wrote about the news from the EPA.
“Recognizing the importance of clean water and healthy watershed to our economy, environment and communities, the Obama administration released a national clean water framework today that showcases its comprehensive commitment to protecting the health of American waters.”
While the administration states it is concerned about water, what they really are concerned about is power, and controlling the land and water. The original EPA bill, HR2421, gave the Army Corps of Engineers control of all “navigable” American watersheds. The EPA, under POTUS’ direction, is after ALL LAND IN ALL WATERSHEDS. As Shenk pointed out since all land is in a watershed, all land use will come under the power of the central government. Shenk wrote, “This Executive Branch recognizes no legislative power or constitutional boundaries to their ambitions.” He continued, “The threat to private property rights embedded in the ill-fated Clean Water Restoration Act of 2007; lives on in Executive Branch bureaucratic overreach.”
Will Trump be Trumped?
Donald Trump is acting more and more like a presidential candidate. While many in America think he is just a rich flake, many in the black community are already making war on him. I have not made up my mind about Mr. Trump as president, but I think he would greatly liven up the race—presidential race, not black/white race. However, it appears that anyone who should conflict with our POTUS simply MUST be a racist. It couldn’t be that POTUS isn’t up to the job, or is narcissistic, or thought of as simply wrong. No, if people don’t like his policies, they are racists. On that vein, Mr. Trump is now being attacked by a group called ColorofChange, which is trying to sabotage the TV program “Celebrity Apprentice.” This group is now campaigning against the program and Trump, stating the he operates in “race-baiting.”
According to Lloyd Marcus, a writer for American Thinker, who by the way happens to be black, states, “For the first time in U.S. History, we have a president who cannot be criticized in any way. It is an indisputable fact that the liberal mainstream media exempted presidential candidate Barack Hussein Obama from the usual vetting process of one seeking to be elected Leader of the Free World. Obama’s skin color trumped everything.”
Marcus continued, “I am so sick of these racist so-called rights groups bullying people with race.” Marcus called out, “Hear ye, hear ye, all who dare criticize King Obama is automatically guilty of racism and will suffer the consequences! This is totally absurd and insane.”
Other Reelection Protection Programs of POTUS:
To ensure his reelection, POTUS has directed companies who request contracts with the federal government to have to reveal their political donation. In addition, POTUS has directed the IRS to challenge political gifts to politically involved not-for-profits. As reported by Liz Peek, of FoxNews.com, even the Democrats are crying foul. The man appears to have no shame.
And, lastly, TSA Updates:
As our POTUS, and his administration know no bounds, apparently neither does the TSA. It is documented that the TSA agents can screen by x-ray and “pat downs” anyone they choose, regardless if they are elderly, frail grandparents on oxygen tanks and in wheelchairs, or if they are children holding teddy bears. But no one knows the long term affect of these x-rays for frequent flyers. And no one knows the long term affect of TSA agents groping the children--touching private parts, reaching inside their pants, inside the underwear, touching the private parts that moms and dads have been trying to teach the children that they shouldn’t let anyone touch them there but doctors, and even removing diapers on babies looking for bombs!!! All this is really beyond the pale.
How do you explain to a child that, no, they shouldn’t let strangers touch them there, but it’s o.k. for people at airports to do that?!! How do you explain to them that they could be arrested for touching their friend Susie like that, but these grown-ups can do it? Where is the common sense when ALL terrorist attacks and attempted attacks have been by Muslims? Now, I agree, not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists, to date, have been Muslims, or people who converted to being a Muslim.
In April Congressman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) introduced a bill, HR1510, making it necessary to obtain parental consent to conduct an invasive frisk of a child. He requested the TSA abandon “security theater” in favor of common sense.
In an article by Robert Small, (AT), Small reported that Chaffetz recommended using bomb-sniffing dogs and behavioral screenings. While bomb-sniffing dogs aren’t fool proof, but neither is anything else.
It is important that we teach our children the difference between Western Culture and Islamic culture. Small asks, “What else should I teach [my child]? That anyone can be a terrorist? Even a child? No, anyone could be a kidnapper, a killer, a pedophile, but the idea of turning an airplane into a weapon of mass destruction repeatedly springs only from the head of a Muslim. It’s a brainchild of a community that defends violent protest, even murder, as a sane response to offensive cartoons!!! It certainly isn’t on the mind of every Muslim, but it persists in the mind of Islam. And that kind of evil will never be defeated by randomly frisking fewer than three out of every hundred travelers.”
Also, what we need to teach our children is that Islam terrorists have no respect or love for their own children. Pakistani boys as young a nine have been recruited by Al Qaeda in Afghanistan to be suicide bombers. They are brought to Afghanistan and shown how to strap on a suicide vest and told that they should go forth and kill as many foreigners as possible, but that they will live through the experience.
We are in a mess. The country is in a mess. The economy is in a mess. The answer has to be Jesus. He WILL come again, and soon. Lord Come Quickly.

In addition, POTUS has directed the IRS to challenge political gifts to politically involved not-for-profits. As reported by Liz Peek, of FoxNews.com, even the Democrats are crying foul. The man appears to have no shame.
And, lastly, TSA Updates:
As our POTUS, and his administration know no bounds, apparently neither does the TSA. It is documented that the TSA agents can screen by x-ray and “pat downs” anyone they choose, regardless if they are elderly, frail grandparents on oxygen tanks and in wheelchairs, or if they are children holding teddy bears. But no one knows the long term affect of these x-rays for frequent flyers. And no one knows the long term affect of TSA agents groping the children--touching private parts, reaching inside their pants, inside the underwear, touching the private parts that moms and dads have been trying to teach the children that they shouldn’t let anyone touch them there but doctors, and even removing diapers on babies looking for bombs!!! All this is really beyond the pale.
How do you explain to a child that, no, they shouldn’t let strangers touch them there, but it’s o.k. for people at airports to do that?!! How do you explain to them that they could be arrested for touching their friend Susie like that, but these grown-ups can do it? Where is the common sense when ALL terrorist attacks and attempted attacks have been by Muslims? Now, I agree, not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists, to date, have been Muslims, or people who converted to being a Muslim.
In April Congressman Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) introduced a bill, HR1510, making it necessary to obtain parental consent to conduct an invasive frisk of a child. He requested the TSA abandon “security theater” in favor of common sense.
In an article by Robert Small, (AT), Small reported that Chaffetz recommended using bomb-sniffing dogs and behavioral screenings. While bomb-sniffing dogs aren’t fool proof, but neither is anything else.
It is important that we teach our children the difference between Western Culture and Islamic culture. Small asks, “What else should I teach [my child]? That anyone can be a terrorist? Even a child? No, anyone could be a kidnapper, a killer, a pedophile, but the idea of turning an airplane into a weapon of mass destruction repeatedly springs only from the head of a Muslim. It’s a brainchild of a community that defends violent protest, even murder, as a sane response to offensive cartoons!!! It certainly isn’t on the mind of every Muslim, but it persists in the mind of Islam. And that kind of evil will never be defeated by randomly frisking fewer than three out of every hundred travelers.”
Also, what we need to teach our children is that Islam terrorists have no respect or love for their own children. Pakistani boys as young a nine have been recruited by Al Qaeda in Afghanistan to be suicide bombers. They are brought to Afghanistan and shown how to strap on a suicide vest and told that they should go forth and kill as many foreigners as possible, but that they will live through the experience.
We are in a mess. The country is in a mess. The economy is in a mess. The answer has to be Jesus. He WILL come again, and soon. Lord Come Quickly.

Obituary for Common Sense
Due to the fact that the Federal House & Senate, along with POTUS, are working on budgets, arguing how high a deficit we should have, and who (which rich folks) will pay for all this foolishness, and our state legislators are also working furiously to write a budget, I am posting the below e-mail I received. May Common Sense be resurrected, and reign on high!
Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:
- Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
- Why the early bird gets the worm;
- Life isn't always fair;
- and Maybe it was my fault.
Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).
His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.
Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.
It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.
Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.
Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.
Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.
Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by his wife, Discretion, by his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son, Reason.
He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers:
I Know My Rights
I Want It Now
Someone Else Is To Blame
and
I'm A Victim .
Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.
