Great Quote of the Week

Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy Law
Psalm 119:18

what I can do today?

What does it mean, to live?
Ill pile all my laundry where you should be sleeping. That way something is there.
To Live, thats what we hope happens.
Lies are wise to despise. Like the clutter with which I barricade away my dreams.
It's all there for our enjoyment. But I cant take it I don't deserve it.
We must fear success because then we are subject to daeth.

Great Quote of the Week

"What they desire is a method of forgetting God that will pass as a method of remembering Him." E.G. White

Pardon Me, Excuse Me, I'm Sorry

It seems like the Media Intelligentsia overseeing our National Conscience want America to apologize for every perceived slight from the early days of this country right up to now and our battles for National Survival. Everything that a Liberal looks at must be seen through a prism of the perfect world being the unanimous incontrovertible consensus, therefore should be embraced by all. Tearing down whatever it takes to create a perceived "equality". The Liberal optimist never sees the holes in our defenses this mentality promulgates. Perfect equality cannot be created for all human beings when we are not all equally blessed with the same gifts. Those who can perform brain surgery are not necessarily equal to those who stand by the freeway offramp and beg for food and money. Just as those who serve our country either overseas fighting or here upholding the Law are not equal to the sleeper terrorists here in America hiding and waiting to attack innocent civilians, or the people who die with a needle sticking out of their arm.
From the treatment of Native Americans, the ousting of Britain, Slavery, Civil War, Chinese Railroad workers, buying the Southwest from Mexico, Fighting in W.W.I, The Great Depression, W.W.II, the Cold War, the Civil Rights movement, the Counter Culture of the 60's, Viet Nam, the Computer Age, Energy crises, War on Terrorism, and now Global Warming, there has been continual struggles to move forward and keep this Nation as fair and strong as possible. Things have not always been done properly without anybody being slighted, but we can't rewrite history. Even though that gets attempted all the time. To acquiesce to pressure brought on by a cadre of underachievers who can only uplift themselves by sinking others falls far short of equality, fairness or self-reliance.
Two recent stories have come up that beautifully illustrate exactly where the hypocrisy emanates. The recent firing of the U.S Attorneys, and General Pace's comments about homosexuals in the military.
Take the U.S. Attorneys story. President Clinton came into office and fired all U.S. Attorneys, now President Bush fires 8 and gets castigated as a political partisan move. Well the U.S attorneys serve at the behest of the President and can be fired when necessary. Senator Charles Shumer Democrat New York says attorney general Alberto Gonzales should resign over this. The Attorney General did acquisce and say something along the lines of sorry, mistakes were made. I get infuriated every time the liberal media gets the conservatives to backpedal and aid them in their portrait of the conservatives as mean or disingenuous. Shumer says Gonzales' chief of staff Kyle Sampson can't take the fall for Alberto like Libby did for Cheney. Isn't that special, Shumer lecturing someone on ethics and taking responsibility. If my memory serves me well Shumer's office had credit reports on Michael Steele and Shumer's protege Lauren B. Weiner went down. And isn't that crime a felony? When you're a Democrat slandering a Republican I guess the truth and facts don't really matter. And the media will fail to point out the duplicity.
Oh well, all that is not surprising and neither is the Homosexual agenda making another inroad toward being an acceptable alternative lifestyle endorsed fully by the U.S. Government. I guess the Homosexuals feel that if the United States Govt. says it's O.K. then their abomination will be approved by all morality. General Pace came out and spoke his mind, obviously it was not politically correct, and he has been raked over the coals in the press. As a Marine, General Pace is more than likely a very no nonsense, by the book, stand up guy. He also said that adultery was immoral, so he is not just picking on gay people. That is what's going wrong in this country everybody is afraid to make a stand based on moral principles, as if everybodies morality is somehow unique and not bound to a higher standard. I am thankful for General Pace to stand up and claim God as our standard. I also worry about our military being insidiously undermined at it's very foundation. All the big Democrat players are pandering to the homosexual lobby and stating they will allow outright homosexuality in the ranks. As if dealing them a big loss in the War against Global Islamist Terrorism isn't a good enough slight. It will soon be a marvel if anybody wants to serve. At least General Pace will not back down and apologize for being right.

I like Fred Thompson

Even though I like Rudy and I like Mitt Romney, and would vote for a Mormon, if He was our nominee. It is Fred Thompson that I really like, I have heard His responses to speeches, heard Him fill in for Paul Harvey, I just think he looks Presidential, sounds Presidential and could be accepted by the Left and the Right, like Reagan, who got a great percentage of the electorate, but got slammed by the media. This guy is polished , professional, and prepared to lead our country forward. His association with Law and Order can't hurt either. Literally and figuratively.

What Will We do When Computers Fail?

I had to call the Maytag repairman today. The wash machine started flooding the laundry room floor last night. I thought it was the drain so I went out and bought a drain rooter snake. Then I proceeded to take off the trap, spilling just a little water on the floor and got upset about that, not a good way to start a plumbing project, getting upset about a cupful or two of shmeg water on the floor. The drain rooting went well enough, just a half hour down the drain. Again, I got a little upset, still not a good idea. Well, I had to mop up the floor and I got a brilliant idea, when I finally finish this laundry room project I can put a drain in the floor that runs outside so if the laundry room floods again the water will run directly outside. Plus one, minus two. O.K., so I thought that the drain was clear and the wash machine would be allright. Wrong, I checked it this morning and there was water all over the room again. It turns out this nearly brand new (6months) Wash machine is leaking around the pump pulley area. Seems like a bad sign to me, it is really leaking fast. Anyway now I know its not the drain, unless the clogged drain somehow caused the pump to blow out.
So the famously not very busy Maytag repairman had to be called up. After being on hold for a half hour we find out they are pretty busy, and can't make it until Monday night. Our product was registered for the warranty but we paid cash and misplaced the receipt. So this nearly brand new unit that sprung a leak might have to get repaired out of my pocket. Murphy's Law strikes again. Oh well it's only money right? So maybe I will sign up for those anger management classes, this really is not a big deal in the grand scheme of things.
I still have my computer. When that breaks I will go crazy. At least I can see what is wrong with the wash machine and I probably could fix it myself. But if something happens to the Fax, Computers, router or cable I am up a creek, as they say.
MyBlogspace.com/ and the internet go Poof and the world goes crazy.

Will We see the Umbra or Penumbra?

Saturday there will be a full lunar eclipse and I am not sure we can see it here. They say there will be one August 18, 2007 though, and we can see that one live. I guess I will have to watch this one on the Discovery Channel.

Moving toward the Light

Layers upon layers of entanglements.

Time and Time again.

The Death of NewsPrint

I just got done watching a Frontline special on the status of Print Journalism and all the trials and tribulations they are facing. It seems grave with the internet taking so many people away, and yet the internet is dependent on print journalists to some extent to do the legwork on stories and getting the information out there for Bloggers to disseminate. And to give the Yahoo's and Googles their content.
It is a catch 22 for them for sure, because they are behind the curve, and the internet will figure out a way to make everything work. But I think I can sum up what is wrong at the L.A. Times, The Sacramento Bee, The New York Times, and just about any other newsprint operation. If they want people to come back and receive their papers and like them, there is only one thing they have to do. Cut out the Liberal slanting that is so obvious and just report the facts. Eliminate the Agenda reporting and veiled bias. That will help save your Newspapers. If it's already not too late, we will come back.

The SunSet Grey, Today

I have always said Grey was my favourite color.

Sometimes it seems like I can see every color in grey.

And sometimes it seems like the absence of color.

The shades blend so effortlessly. So nuanced, so easy to look at.

It's moodiness can be misunderstood for gloominess.

But it's not too dark, not too light.

Media Darlings, The Clinton Dynasty

The Today Show just stated that the Clinton Years, looking back now, were a grand time for America. The reasons why Hillary would be so good for America are that things were so much better back then and the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy has lost it's punch. The only real problem they state for Hillary is Her war stance irks Her Liberal Base. They even went so far as to say if she were elected Bill would maybe jump into Her Carpetbagged New York State Senator Seat. Unfortunately I dont have time right now to dissect this unbelievably slanted reporting, but when I get home today there will be an addendum. Threre is fodder here that could last all the way to 2008. That's what I get for being late and accidentally seeing some of The TodayShow : (

Sometimes a Leader Has to Lead

The consensus leader of the Free World is probably going to be the President of the United States, I don't think anybody could argue with that. That is not supposition or Fantasy, it is fact. Maybe it would be easier to be an American in the World at Large if this were not so. But it is one of the responsibilities that our Lone Superpower status has bestowed upon US. Our other elections are vital on the world stage, too. Just as every new leader in every Democratic Election in the world changes the dynamic for the Global Situation, with the US electing the most powerful elected leader in the Free World, there is an incalculable gravity assigned to this task. The President, as Commander in Chief, has the responsibility to assess threats and make decisions based on preserving our sovereignty and vitality. There can be no usurpation of this responsibility by Congress and Senators who were not elected to fulfill those duties. Every voter should think twice(or three times) about all the decisions they will require of their Highest Elected Official. Like who will be put on the Supreme Court, what agenda will be pursued(vetoed), how we will defend our country, and who receives pardon. There are no do-overs in elections, or wars. When we elect a new President of the United States for better or worse we are electing the most powerful person on the Planet, if only for a short time.
Many wannabe lone superpower Nation/States take umbrage at this notion, disqualifying themselves from the unbiased Critical School of American Hegemony. We do want to do well in the world , but to do well without sinning. At least thats what we should want for all our trouble. There will always be some who like strife for strifes sake, but think of all the Little Old Grannies and Grandpa's out there, that is also the face of America.
Every President probably had one defining moment, at least, in their term in office that was a culmination of all their dreams and aspirations and what they had actually caused to happen. Some were probably on the good side of the ledger and some, not so good. What is now being portrayed as Bush's War in Iraq probably falls into such a catagory for Him and US. The President believed installing a Democracy in the Heart of the Totalitarian Middle East could change the way all the players over there do business. It could also blow up into a Regional War where the US is not better off because of it. The Lord works in mysterious ways, though, and I am sure His will is being done in this whether Bush knows it or not, whether we know it or not. Sometimes to do great things, people have to take great chances. Playing it safe would have never gotten US here, alive in the 21st Century, with awesome technology, and a chance to serve our fellow Man.
Through God all things are possible, Thank You Jesus.

From the Shadows, through the Cage.

I have heard there's a shadow Government that controls everything.

They want to take away peoples rights to bear arms.

To create a New World Order.

Setting the table for a great world leader.

Those who are true to Freedom will never give in.

We know who will step into the vacuum,

if we give up the right to defend ourselves from tyranny.

Then only the demons desires can be fulfilled. Sometimes when I feel hemmed in by the World at large, I have to remember:

Life without God is like living in a cage.

We work and work and work.

Freedom comes from having the key.

Jesus Christ is the Way the Truth and the Life. The one who will set US all free.

BELIEVE!

Give Me a Break

This Clown is just a Puppet on a String.









Don't tell me He is voting for a Democrat.

Hillary for President?

They say African Americans would choose Her because Bill was the First Black President.

Are you kidding Me?

Note the Monster's Heart, though.

Barack for President?

When Pigs Fly.

To Jym and Bushwacker and all B.D.S. sufferers

How does it make you feel to have the same reveries as Hugo? I know how you feel about Bush but your extreme position seems rather unhinged. I personally did not care for Bill Clinton and had as much reason to dislike him as you do President Bush but maybe there's a better, more constructive way to de-construct Him. I don't know how anybody could be so consumed with vitriol for someone they don't really know. I know Bush is trying just as hard to keep you safe as me. I know there are many others who feel as you do, but you guys won the last election and ina couple years there's another one and Bush won't be running then so maybe,??

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.
