What Happens Next

If our fate is to be determined by Politicians who are only concerned with staying in their elected office, somehow Americans who want our Country to stay strong must unite and throw out these bums before their damage becomes irreperable. Our Military can and will deal with the insurgency if the kid gloves come off. The Appeasement Party of America would rather bow down 5 times a day to Allah to retain their rulership of the American juggernaut.
While there are peaceful ways to win some disagreements, both sides have to be committed to peace in order for negotiations. I would just ask the Bush Haters to imagine your country ruled by sharia Law, preposterous!, you say? What do you think the ultimate goal of our enemy is? How do you think they can achieve their dark vision?
First they will try to destroy our economy, this is already happening. They will then try to string out our Military, this too is happening. Then, they will try to erode American patriotism, Loyalty, and unity. This too is happening. The disagreements over here are aired all over the world, and when some are overcome with vitriol and accusations, the fractures are magnified when foreign press reads into it all that they want to see.

Maybe I Am MicroManaging.

God said "Let vengeance be His".

In His own infinite wisdom and revelation He has led me to this truth. As individuals we can only control ourselves and how we react to the world. We cannot control our fellow Americans, or our enemies around the world. We cannot force anybody to appreciate the research and effort we put out to notify friends, neighbors, and fellow countrymen, the perilous path we are heading down. These enemies have sworn to kill US, and I for one take them at their word on it, not their ability yet, but their goals and desires to do just that. Eventually, when we no longer are engaging them or concerned, is the time I fear they will act.

And that is the time and mindset our elected officials are pushing US toward.

Are we a red country or a blue country? Labeling with colours seems like something you might do in Kindergarten class, but Nationally, in the News?

Both colours conjur up negative connotations to me. Red for association with Communism, Blue for Lasciviousness. Both colours also have good affiliations, a Red heart on Valentines Day exemplifies love. And True Blue, is what it says it is.

I remember not too long ago Red was for the Democrats and Blue was for the Republicans on the National election Maps. I wonder if they decided to switch colours because the Republicans were winning and the Red associated with the Democrats was tainting the public perception of these otherwise well meaning 'American Patriots'.

Maybe what it's really all about is the red and blue fighting each other for the white flag.

Just a thought.

We are still over a barrel.

How come when the price per barrel of oil goes below $50 all of a sudden prices will collapse and oil producers will do whatever they can to gerrymander things upward? The price per barrel rises and so do gas prices and everybody in OPEC is happy. I understand it's a business and we all have to make money, but sooner or later the goose can be killed. I cannot continually raise my prices in my business just because my services are necessary. Neither can food producers, utility companies, or medical services (though they do push the envelope courtesy of insurance companies).
Our economy is tied to the world and the world is tied to US. Maybe we could just get ANWAR on line and that would prohibit this alliance of dictators and communists to tether US to their lifeline. If all it takes is a little downward pressure to really straighten out the price fixing then by all means let's figure a way out.

Could they be the most perfect people?

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are moving to New Orleans. Wow, they have picked the most obvious place to reside this side of Paris. It all makes sense. They want to be King and Queen of America, right? Or is it the world? The only thing that would have made it more perfect would have been if Barack Obama was Louisiana's Senator. But I guess after '08 that wouldn't matter either.Their kids will probably like it there. Maybe they could just buy a few thousand more kids from 3rd world countries and start their own city, or they could have their own parish.
I wonder if they will build a Hurricane proof house or fortress. It would not be noble to blame the government when you could live anywhere and choose to live in a city that is below sea-level.

What's in a Name.

One problem with naming your enemy is then you are giving him a chance to change his name and claim you are fighting the wrong person. Make the identification and then deal with the personage. Are we at war with Al Qaeda or Hamas? Hizbollah or Radical Freakin' Islamophobes wherever they may roam? Our vacillating and faintheartedness is just seen as a sign of our decline by Iran, Syria Saudi-Arabia, Pakistan, Afghanistan etc. The defeatists in our midst will even try to go legalistically, suicidally, insanely, querelous on US and may even get US all killed.

The U.S. is the only force keeping all these rogues in line. US and our petro-dollars.

True Beauty can never be extinguished.

Life as seen through the Eyes of a 7 year old.

What makes US change our perceptions?

The Problem is...

The hard left can get provoked to violence, apparently. When threatened with the end of the "Liberal West", I believe all leftists would give a pretty good account for themselves, (knowing how the enemy feels about them) and probably kick some ass. Knowing the true radical right is not whom the liberals contest and oppose right now, when the time comes the liberals may be able to get ready. I am just afraid the realization might come too late.

You can tell the bad guys by their Black turbans.

Well even if they helped bin Laden, hiding and running have not helped him plan any more attacks on America. Zawahiri and Osama can't even enjoy each other's company, what a pity, maybe they can become martyrs together one day soon. Sooner or later they all can't escape.

Send in the Troops

President Bush might want to send more troops to Iraq. I say good, but only if they are allowed to use whatever force necessary to overwhelm our enemy. Don't send our brave young warriors over there to become targets and statistics. If they can go over there risking their lives I would want the same for myself, no second-guessing, just to be unfettered, allowed to do whatever it takes to survive and win. Defending our country is an honor to which I wish I myself could avail. WE cannot sacrifice anybody for ungrateful idealogues who worship violence.
I know most of our soldiers respect and defer to our host countries customs and traditions with the noblest of intentions - serving the good of the world, I just know it. When you are there on the world stage, especially in the middle east, for most god-fearing people, it must be a time of acute soul-consciousness and awareness.

This is the calling of our time.

Label the Clones.

The FDA has actually cleared cloned meat for our consumption. This cannot be foisted upon US without those who refuse to eat it having a chance to know what it is. Label it or there will be Hell to pay!
Let me get this straight Bush is against ALL cloning, right?
Where's Codex when we really need them,? Democrats? Vegans?

Happy Birthday! The Tyrant is Dead.

Saddam maddas a hatter. Saddam dead as a doornail. Saddam assumes room temperature. Saddam there but for the grace of Allah goes Bin-Laden. Saddam re-united with his sons. Saddamized.
Deadlines for headlines.
Personally I get no solace in the fact that this evil mass murderer is gone. Symbolically it had to happen, and the sooner the better. The brave American soldiers that have died trying to clean up his hell hole are who I choose to think about and pray for. I saw that Saddam went to the gallows with a Quran in his hand, how fitting that the handbook for the adherents to the 'Religion of Peace' will be there to guide his soul to it's final resting place.
If Saddam was playing with Tarot cards which ones came up, do you suppose? The hanging man? The death card? Both?
Lord God almighty must be very disappointed in this individual. Given, or allowed to take, a position of high authority over an entire nation, he used his position to torture and oppress people and ingratiate himself. The things Saddam could have done to make the world a better place were infinitismal, and maybe that will be one of his punishments in Hell. To see the alternate reality, where he was a great leader and with all the oil wealth that has been bestowed upon Iraq, created a great center of learning and prosperity right there in the heart of the middle-east. But alas, it was not meant to be.
I get a kick out of the American hating leftists who say that we are responsible for Hussein because we supported him in the Iran-Iraq war. Maybe there is some culpability there but we never told him to kill his own people and try and take over the region. We rightly sided with the lesser of two evils, and gave him an opportunity to step up and change the dynamic, which he obviously failed in a most spectacular way. Now we still have to deal with the trouble in Iran without a secular ally in Saddam Hussein who could have exercised some control over this wild beast of a nation. And could have accomplished that control without torturing and killing so many of his own people, could he not?
Anyway life goes on and the quickening continues to gather momentum, hastening US toward the final conflict of good versus evil. One I hope and pray that we do the right thing and not end up like Saddam Hussein. Great potential relegated to the ash heap of History.

And Iran, Iran so far away.

Others are feeling like me, President Bush may have missed his calling.

It's me and Joey.

When the Flu Hits

A conspiracy theorist would have to surmise that President Bush is about to unleash a mutated form of H5N1 flu virus on the world, or maybe just New Orleans. It is getting into the flu season so of course we should start to see some flu stories in the news. No doubt we all should be careful and wash our hands often, for many are vulnerable to strains less deadly than H5N1.

The last horrible worldwide outbreak was 1918. The world was at war and here we are again war breaking out everywhere, maybe when the Angel of Death is unleashed there is no restraining the scope of operations.

The Clash of the Process of Civilization

This world is all about perceptions and perspectives.
We are not at war with the Iranian people just their rulers and theocrats, those who will drive these people to their death.

With Friends Like These.

Who needs enemies?
I am thinking maybe we should just back off and let these guys do what they do best.
Let's just build a cage around the middle-east and call it the ultimate.

Time to come back.

Maybe now it's O.K. to go back to my original church home. If I had a home that is. As a vagabond of the Christian World I have been Episcopalian, Baptist, Non-denominational Lutheran, maybe Catholic(way back when I was 4 or 5), probably every denomination, whatever church I stepped into. I have also been as New Age, agnostic, liberal, Rosicrucian, hippie, heavy metalist, skateboarder(steel wheels), chess club, poet, artist(still am), deep thinking(tripped out?), environmentally safe person, as any other. In other words even as I was sinning I was still searching for the Lord. Because I wasn't always all the bad things, back to back to back, and I wasn't always all the good things, back to back to back. 2 steps forward one step back, 1 step forward 2 steps back. And so it goes.

Our Controlling Nature.

Why do people feel they must control everything? Maybe it is that controlling tendency that has created problems from the very beginnings of civilization. Many, many people throughout the eons of time have fought to and fought to throw off the yoke of control and domination. Right now we are fighting to maintain the world system that is in place. Maybe maintaining the status quo is not the penultimate desire of our creator. Maybe humanities destination was hi-jacked long ago and throughout the ages we have been fighting to stabilize and maintain a faulty hierarchy. Deep within, our souls desire is to be free. Completely free, of all stains of sin, selfishness and material desires that cloud our spirit from the light of God's presence.

To Liberals and Mental Weaklings..-..-.

I know what you are thinking. You are betting your life that your great country(and it is great) has a trick up their sleeve . "We are the U.S.A. ... f yeah! We have secret laboratories and super spys and ray guns and sh*t. We can do anything, the stuff that we don't even know about would make your head spin."
I myself would love to know that to be true. However, as awesome as some of our scientific and secret weapons technology must certainly be, without the will to use it makes it virtually worthless to have taken the time and treasure to produce.
You are thinking..-..-"What if everybody hates us?"
well what if?
Whatif your butt sniffed?

We can't live our lives worried about offending people who are threatening to kill US.
This enemy will not quit this fight, the wheels are in motion.
But still you're saying "We can't win"
I say we have already won, we just have not believed in ourselves. We are the lone superpower in the world because Almighty God has granted US this honor, we must act like we deserve to be thusly rewarded.

Or what good is it?

Sowing the Wind and Reaping the Whirlwind.

Alleigence to America by the American people appears to be wavering. Our economy is based on growth,through population and expanding the middle and upper classes. There are many people out there who think we should be reducing our population by whatever means necessary. As long as we have the farmland and ability to feed our nation we should continue to try and grow our population. Look what is happening in Europe and Russia now. Their birthrates are dwindling and their growth, needed to continue to pay for the growth in their social programs, is dependent on immigration for tax paying workers. However much of the immigrant influx are using up the social services at a similar rate. Third World immigrants come into all these countries seeking their own needs first, not really their new countries needs. I guess it's human nature to try and look out for #1 first, but that is where the trouble starts.

Those who look to hire in America need entry level workers, along with skilled professionals. But we are also raising a whole generation of people who feel they are entitled to some kind of bounty. The Social Security system here is broken and no-one is willing to do the heavy lifting to fix it. We have a whole sub-culture who feel no shame in taking money for nothing. Whether it's by thievery, fraud, pretending to be pathetic, or illicit activities, so many people have no pride in earning their own way and taking care of themselves and their families. Welfare and S.S.I. abuse come directly to mind. How could a healthy person who can work collect money for ruining their lives by drug /alcohol abuse? How can people get money for making a series of stupid choices in their personal lives? On top of that now the new immigrant class is starting to feel that same sense of entitlement. Some how it seems a common human characteristic to forget where you came from. To forget what it took to get to that next level. Humanities house of cards is stacked so high just one straw will bring down a century of progress. At the base is agriculture, shelter, and law and order. These pillars must be kept strong.

With human nature what it is I cannot picture things getting much better. Our nation needs a revival or we might have to let things fall and pick up the pieces. Maybe these terroristic threats are God's way of sending US a wake up call. Even though I am personally aware of the danger I still battle complacency. I believe that we are threatened and it would serve our nation right to get slapped down a few pegs. But since we seem to be the only ones in the world trying to do anything about these problems it would be tragic for the whole world if the U.S.A. were to somehow be nuetralized. Time is short, maybe shorter than anyone realizes. We really don't have the time to re-sort what is right and where we stand as a nation. The Lord is at our door knocking, not acting is a response that will not be tolerated. The time has come to make a stand.
