Honest Mistake?

Here's a good one. A guy pushes to get the SAFE Act passed, making carrying a gun on school property a felony (among other things).

"He was a well-known face in the movement for the SAFE Act, the state law that made carrying a gun on school property a felony."

The he carries a gun on school property.

"No one imagined that on Thursday he would show up at the school in possession of a gun, touching off an hours-long lockdown, search and ultimately his arrest on two felony charges."

Now they're defending him saying he didn't mean any harm. What about all the children who were punished for stupid things like finger guns or pop tart guns or t-shirts? The SAFE Act is bad law and never should have been passed, but I have no sympathy for this man at all. Karma is a bitch.

Associates defend man who had gun in school

On a side note, he has a permit to carry a gun - presumably concealed? Does New York permit open carry? - Unless it was open carry, how did anyone know he had the gun?

Defender of (Muslim) Religious Freedom

Beyond that? Nope.

Obama:‘Promoting religious freedom is a key objective of US policy'

President Barack Obama declared himself a defender of religious faith Thursday, and gently chided various governments and religions for limiting religious freedom.

Is there any living person so completely full of crap who is not considered bats#%$ crazy by everyone?

Communism as False Prophet

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. --1 John 4:1

Heard this quoted today while perusing the newest exploits of America's "progressive" movement. This is the spirit John is speaking of a few verses on when he mentions the anti-Christ, I'm convinced more and more of this as I see the Progressives in action.

Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. 2 By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God, 3 and every spirit that does not confess that[a] Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God. And this is the spirit of the Antichrist, which you have heard was coming, and is now already in the world.

I was listening to: Life and Light

Sermon of the Week

Ronald Dart in 2002. I can appreciate this sermon much more today than ever before and the message applies to your life, not just church life. Basically, think for yourself.

Life Under Communism

Here's a very interesting article. Reminds me of what we used to hear life was like in the USSR. Some things never change.

Thirty Days as a Cuban

No One Wants to Hear They've Been Had

How do you get everyone to hear this message?

One God

Godzilla vs. Bambi

I don't know why we tend to ignore this guy, but we do it to our detriment. A bit over 1400 views - what a shame. We need the knowledge he imparts.

David Horowitz on the Difference Between Liberals and Conservatives

Short and sweet.



The full speech is here (and it's worth listening to):

Dedicated to the Obama Administration

Economic Fascism

Why Are the Medical Insurance Companies Silent?

President Obama is now trying to shift the blame for millions of canceled policies onto the insurance companies. You would expect them to defend themselves. But they don’t, either because they are too deep in the deal or too intimidated– or both.

Thanks to Obamacare's passage, the federal government has much more control over them than during the Clinton administration. They have in effect become government sponsored and controlled entities, and the days of their speaking out publicly against their federal overlords are over.

Do the insurance companies like the crony capitalist arrangements they have become party to, or do they think they have no choice but to go along?

Freedom is Dangerous

"For us to be free, we have to have a choice."

Hell Yes, It's an Illusion...

It's unfortunate that so many want so badly to believe it.

Liberalism, the Decline of an Illusion

Liberalism as practiced in today's America is a chimera, not actually an ideology but an alliance of interest groups controlled by elites for the preservation of their (the elites') wealth and power. The interest groups often seem to be working against their own advantage by being so affiliated (e. g. African-Americans are in the worst shape in years under Obama), but not the elites who have been able to thrive. These elites are also able to appear altruistic to themselves and others while behaving in manners that are hideously selfish and atrocious to the common good. Liberalism is not so much an ideology in our society as it is a shield, a defense mechanism for a lifestyle.

He's certainly got that right. I hope he's right about it being in decline, every time I start thinking it is, Democrats win more elections. How anyone in their right mind can vote for a Democrat is beyond me and the only reason to vote for most Republicans is because a vote for a third party splits the vote giving the Democrat the win. We need to get over that third party hump.

American Exceptionalism

Nick Adams can articulate America like very few today. A three part video interview definitely worth watching.

Why a foreigner is rooting for American exceptionalism

One passionate, eloquent Australian reminds Americans why we are the world's beacon for liberty, prosperity and hope — that "a weak America means a dangerous world," and "no less than the entire world is at stake."

Nope.

McCain considering seeking reelection in 2016

Don't even think about it. Retire.

Don Obama

Congress Has America Caught Up in 'Endless Extortion Scheme'

As Obama said in October 2010, "We are going to punish our enemies and we're gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us."

The Lawless Ones

The Supersessionists of the Liberal Confederacy

"Law is a consensus. But the left rejects that consensus. It subjects each law to an ideological test. If the law meets the ideological test, which is based on social justice criteria entirely foreign to the American legal system, and the practical test of furthering social justice, it can stay. If not, then it will either be struck down or disregarded. They have applied that same ideological test to the nation as a whole and decided that the existence of the United States does not meet their ideological tests."

Read it, Daniel Greenfield articulates what we already know and don't quite know how to deal with.

Jesus Was For Big Government - Really?

Because I keep hearing from some people that Obama is doing God's work because as Christians we should use the government to help poor people. :-(

I was sent these: Hating the Poor but Loving Jesus?

Shall We Celebrate the 1%?

Basically, the jist is, if you are not for using government poverty programs and for redistributing wealth you hate poor people.

Well, I'm all for helping poor people but I believe the government does more harm than good. I believe using the government for such things enriches politicians and bureaucrats, not poor people. I believe people have a personal responsibility to help, not a collective one. Besides, if you are not giving freely, from the heart - such as when the government takes your money to redistribute - it breaks the spiritual laws of giving and blesses neither the giver nor the receiver (witness any of our inner cities). God's way of personal, voluntary giving blesses both.

"Jesus Christ was not about building empires. Jesus Christ was not about exercising control over other people. Jesus Christ was not about accumulating power."

--David Havir

Mr. Havir's message is not a political one, I just heard that and pulled it out. It fits, but he was talking church, not national politics.

Evil is as Evil does

Satan likes to trip people up, he enjoys causing problems, he finds glee in destruction. I don't see Obama or anyone in his administration or his party acting any differently. Who is being helped? Poor people? I've never seen so many homeless people out there, it's getting ridiculous. Obama is helping Obama and his already rich cronies. That's all. What he says is absolute bullshit, what is happening is real and that reality is about to smack you in the face whether you support him or not.

Dangerous Times: The Crisis-Monger

"From tip to toe, Obama is a crisis-maker, not a healer. He stirs up trouble every chance he gets. Ask yourself how any U.S. president could willfully try to worsen race relations in the United States by flipping the judicial verdict in the Zimmerman trial, and you will begin to see the real Obama. He doesn't care whether justice was done. He only whips up more racial rage."

"Obama favors instability because he can get his way only through crises. That is his ideology. That is also why he sneers at the U.S. Constitution, the great stabilizing foundation of America for two whole centuries."

"Leninism is nothing but personal animosity turned into government policy."

Fence Sitting is No Longer an Option

Live Blogging Media Spin on Gov't Slowdown

Last week, as the prospect of a federal government shutdown loomed as reality, the President of the United States told the media that he would "not negotiate" with "house burners." And with that, the American mainstream media threw away their longstanding belief in "civil bipartisan compromise" in order to stand with Obama.

This morning on the radio they played clips of Obama and company comparing Republicans and Tea Partiers to terrorists, which are in the following video:


I was in the car with my wife - who doesn't actively follow the political scene, but she's not ignorant either - and after hearing the clips she said, " He's trying to start a civil war." And you know, I don't think she's wrong. He has to frame it correctly, of course, he can't look like the bad guy, but he's got the American media in his pocket, they are his puppets and they do what he says. The international scene is a distraction from what he wants to do- crush the American way and any who would defend it. He doesn't attack any international crisis with the relish and enthusiasm he attacks and mocks his political enemies. I say Obama, but he has a huge array of like-minded comrades both in and out of government. They are a real and present danger. They want an uprising so they can crush it. I don't doubt this any longer.
