Kudos to Pres. Elect Obama

We have hope! Barack Obama has selected Pastor Rick Warren to do the invocation at the inauguration. That is a tremendous honor for any pastor or religious leader to be selected. Evangelist Billy Graham has been the familiar pastor seen at the past few inaugurations, and now it seems there is a changing of the guard.

I believe that evangelicals, charismatics and pentecostals, can all appreciate the choice of Rev. Rick Warren, author of the Purpose Driven Life. And truly Sen. Barack Obama is the example of that book being fulfilled before our eyes.

Although, I and millions of other evangelicals did not vote for Sen. Obama due to his social policy and stands on "abortion" and "same-sex marriage," we did hold our breath that the "real" Barack Obama is a man of principles and beliefs that would not negate the principles of faith that this great nation was founded upon.

So far so good.

Choosing Rick Warren over the hundreds of good and decent pastors of other denominations shows that he is daring and he is a friend who remembers. Without that very important interview at Saddleback Church, which the church at larged watched carefully, Senator Obama may not have gotten such a large swing religious conservative vote. The key thing that stuck in the mind of those who watched that debate was when Senator Obama said, "I walked down the aisle of Trinity Church and received Jesus Christ..."

That's all they needed to hear. He was one of them.

So good for you President elect Obama. You are making those of us who had a little anxiety proud of you!

Aloha!

Same Ol' Same Ol'

After a heart wrenching final week of elections and the heart touching scene in Chicago as thousands gathered to congratulate the President-elect, our nations first truly "Afro-American Candidate, " Barack Obama. A little more than one month later after the final vote is cast, we see the debrie coming to the surface as graft and corruption indictments are being handed out to the states highest officials.

They use to say, where there's smoke there's fire. But today's media apparently can't tell and cannot discern graft from corruption anymore. They are so eager to prove they were right in supporting the democrat party's candidate at any cost, they are willing to lay down their integrity and common sense to do so.

Personally, I believe that Barack Obama is a decent person as Senator John McCain has stated, but his friends are one by one landing in prison for graft and corruption.

When a party left or right, allows itself to cover, defend and make excuses for actions that are downright illegal and immoral, rather than the dumbing down of America, it is the destruction of America. Without integrity, moral values and virtues, a society cannot prosper and exists.
It's citizens will adopt the attitude of "me" first rather than "for the good of all."

Today we see our sorry excuse for a congress, doling out billions of dollars to wallstreet companies who mismanaged and mishandled their affairs while their mutual fund managers and stock brokers walked away with millions and billions of commissions and fees.

The congress could give everyone in America $1,000,000 to pay off their debts and provide a life time of health insurance instead, they are giving $1,000,000,000 (trillion) --because that is what this bailout is amounting to -- to companies so that they can balance their books before the end of the year.

We need to pray. The change the people voted for is the same ol' same ol." We exchanged one
do nothing party for another. And sorry to say that our leaders have let down the standard of integrity, righteousness and honor to satisfy and placate the financial rulers of our economy.

They have allowed America to be sold to the highest bidder!

It looks like the Book of Revelations is commencing!

Don't Count Him Out

When 90% of the liberal media is against you, when those who are manipulating the stock market and the federal reserve want to see you lose, when all the negative publicity and hatred is aimed against your Vice Presidential candidate, it looks like an impossible situation for Senator John McCain.

But 30 years ago, beaten, bruised and left to die, that was also an impossible situation. The captors hated him and all American soldiers and aviators. They spat on him, they stabbed him with their weapons. They refused medical treatment and then used every means they could to persuade him to renouce his allegiance to his beloved nation.

99% of his captors were against him. His fellow prisoners suffered inhumane treatment and indignities we will never know about and either will the prisoners at GITMO. But John McCain came through this impossible situation with the sacrifical scars to prove it.

Today, the liberal American media, who were educated at those elitist universities former seminaries and colleges for the preparation of ministers is now training centers for the educating of the next generation elitist socialists [someone who wants government to help the poor but who do not want the poor to live on their street] who are committed to overturning the foundations of this country and weeding out every symbol of freedom, patriotism, religion and faith so that their new gods of wealth, power, prestige, and immorality can replace the "guns and religion" of the middle class and poor.

I am wondering, about the Stock Market Crash and the Banking Crisis. This sell off of October 15, 2008 comes at the normal time of all sell offs and all crashes. During the month of October, capital gains are taken so that at the end of the year, dividends can be paid. Yet, the media has alarmed the nation and wrought panic amongst the masses that the "sky is fallng."

It is amazing to me that in one day the market crashes and recession is coming as Dow Jones loses 1500 points. Then a couple days later - wow - the market rebounds gaining 900 points.
Then a couple days later - oh no - the bailout is not working now we are depression as the market plunges 900 points again.

This leave me to believe that a set of factors is manipulating the market to INSURE AN ECONOMIC CRISIS THAT CANNOT BE EXPLAINED BEFORE THE ELECTION... so that their candidate and the candidates of the left can be elected.

This is amazing because only the wealthy, globalist and elite can do this: manipulate the market. They must be really laughing at the poor American middle class who has been the YO-YOs in all of this - who are falling for all the malarky because they have no clue how the market works, while these so called liberalist who care so much for the poor, are enriching themselves and moving all their money to Europe and elsewheres.

The leftist in government initiated and passed legislation that look so benevolent on the outside, loans for the poor - everyone owns a home but were actually malevolent because they forced these poor people into an American dream that they could not afford only later for it to become an American disaster when they were foreclosed, evicted and lost all of their hard hearned income trying to pay for a house they they were told was available to them because of the wonderful policies of the Democrats and when they were homeless, then they were told it was because of the Republicans.

In third world countries, elections are never honest. There is huge voter fraud. Pay offs, bribes, etc. are all done in the name of "every person deserves to vote." This has destroyed the confidence in elections. Today in America, this same fraud has come home to roost in the name of ACORN.

Imagine creating and using not the Democratic party, which must account for all their income and revenue, but some non-profit organization that has limited accounting , to funnel thousands of dollars to pay unprofessional workers to go out and get the vote? Can you imagine if John McCain or Sarah Palin had done this? They would have been tarred and feathered by the liberal media.

But Senator Obama's campaign actually gave this group $800,000 to get the vote out?
Is this what America is all about? We can see this happening in the 3rd world, where they have the poorest people $1-$2 and tell them to go and vote for a certain candidate and when they do, they'll give them another couple of bucks.

By not accepting US taxpayer's dollars for this campaign Senator Obama was able to raise huge amounts of money with little or no accounting of the source. We know that a normal crowd cannot accummulate $500 milion for a campaign. So where did that money come from?
$20 per contribution on the internet from 25,000,000 donars? Give me a break?

Yes we defintely need a reform - a campaign finance reform. We need a Federal Reserve reform. We need a Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac reform and we need a Congressional reform to keep and make our elected officials accountable for their actions or lack of actions.

Americans need to pray really hard about this election, because it may not only be about a candidate. It may be about the future soverignty of America. If you trust these people, America will be owned by the people who own the stock market and the money supply. They will give away your rights and your future so ALL CAN BE EQUAL, while they enrich themselves.

Listen to what they say. Listen to how they frame their words. But look to see WHAT they actually do. And you will see NOTHING accomplished.

The exhaustion of President Bush is an example of the pressures, unimaginable pressures that were placed upon an incumbent president for 8 years. No one since Roosevelt has had to deal with unrelenting problems and situations and history will show that President George W. Bush did a good job. He did the best he could.

Now, as we look towards November 4th,

The people will vote on November 4th for the kind of leader they deserve.

Don't Blame Bush - Blame Yourself!

For the past four years the Democrats have controlled congress. Blame for the mess that Wall Street is encountering has nothing to do with either
the Democrats or the Republicans. The disaster is caused by a systemic problem that has invaded our culture since the 1960's when the slogan was "If it feels good, do it."

Today's failure of our nations largest lending, banking and financial institutions is a direct result of a lack of integrity in the character and leadership of those who are in charge. These virtues have been replaced by the "bottom line," and "what's in it for me."

Neither political party nor the CEOs, the COOs or the CFOs of these failed corporations care about the little guy they are representing. Year after year our politicans have overlooked the red flags because wall street was donating huge sums of money to their political parties, their re-election campaigns and their favorite charities.

The liberal media has also chosen to turn it's head to deliberately misrepresent the news by twisting and crafting their message to appeal to the left wing and to influence the uniformed to believe that success means money, big cars, and position.

They forgot the meaning of the words, "sacrifice," "commitment," "honesty," and "integrity," which are the core values of the United States military. While these young men and women are sacrificing their lives - these greedy corporate moguls are wining, dining and flaunting their ill acquired wealth in the best restaurants. They live in the pent houses of our nation, spend their money like water and looking down on the "kids" who desire to serve in America's Corps or as a enlisted person serving in the deserts of Afghanistan.

Our military really deserves the praise and respect for keeping our nation safe so that these jerks can continue to steal, manipulate and rob the American people of their future.

The liberal media neglects to tell Americans of the great accomplishments being done by our military, the faith based groups, the unsung heroes of our nations, and they focus on the digbats who make millions of dollars portraying gangsters, criminals and immoral characters on the big screen, silly young ladies who are clueless with their lives and give them all the attention and the media exposure.

Our nation is sick. We are sick because we have been feed the culture and the garbage from the left wing media. Our young people now believe that their future is becoming a star on "American Idol," or "America's Got Talent," and many will waste their youth and their lives trying to be the star that they will never become because the values that they are receiving through the media and culture, has led them to believe that they have this chance!

It's time we need the TRUTH. We need the REAL TRUTH.

Instead we are getting the blame game. Blame Bush. Blame McCain. Blame Palin. We need to blame ourselves for being so blind and stupid. We need to blame ourselves for not questioning or speaking out when we see inconsistencies.

Wake up America and get it straight this time. Because next, time there will not be enough money in the treasury to bail the crooks out on Wall Street in the Mortgage business, in the Financial District etc.

If you want the truth, you can find it! If it sounds wrong, it is wrong.

We need a big change! We don't need the change that includes the Kennedy's manipulating and controlling Barack Obama calling the shots and naming his VP for him. We need real leadership.
Jimmy Carter arose from nowheres to become President because he was the Kennedy boy and did everything they wanted including giving the Panama Canal back to Panama so that the bankers who lent billions to Panama could be repaid by Panama. What has Barack promised to them this time and in this election.

We need leadership that has integrity!

Sarah Palin - Still the Right Choice

In the midst of hurricanes, political fever and announcements, the media did not fail to bring up Sarah's news release that her daughter, Bristol, was five months pregnant and GOING to have the baby and marry the baby's father.

What savvy democratic candidate would do that? In the midst of the John Edwards campaign, did he even think to announce that he had, had an indiscretion with a campaign worker and been unfaithful to his wife? When asked that tough question by a myriad of reporters, what did he do? "Deny it." Where have we heard that before?

During Pres. Clinton's campaign, the reporters discovered the affair with Genifer Flowers. And it is history now that when she called him to ask, "What shall we do?" His response, "Just deny it."

Well Sarah Palin is a new breed of non-politicians that are willing to give the people the straight answers.

They are going to do the right thing! They are supporting their daughter and loving her unconditionally. They are not going to take the easy way out - abort the baby and don't mention it! Hoorah for this family!

The Right Choice for America - Sarah Palin

I, like millions of other conservatives, have been sitting on the sidelines, watching and wondering who is the best candidate for Election 2008. Barack Obama, with his charm and wonderful family brings hope to the best of Americans. John McCain, has a proven track record of leadership and commitment in his service to the nation.

Watching through the Democratic Convention, I saw a kinder and gentler convention. It almost made we think we were at at Republican Convention except for their platforms which any true moral convervative cannot support. The selection of Joe Biden sealed Obama's fate on my part because I would not vote for him no matter how personable he is in private - because his views on moral and character issues are miles apart from most values based voters.

Watching the spectacle on Thursday night at the Democratic convention, the elaborate stage and the millions of dollars spent at first I thought, well this year the democrats really are supporting their candidate, until I saw the plethora of music,rock and roll groups gathered to perform. Then I thought, what a marvelous idea a free concert of our nation's great rock and roll, country and pop stars. That's how they drew the rest of the crowd.

So what's next? How in the world could the republicans top that show.

The McCain Team cordially congratulated the Obama Team for a great speech and a successful conclusion to their convention.

Then on Friday morning, August 29, 2008 on the birthday of Senator John McCain and the Anniversary of Gov. Sarah Palin, they dropped the bombshell.

As a values conversative, I sat and listed and watched to hear Sarah's acceptance speech. She was more than fabulous! She was "brilliant" as most pundits had to admit until the media got hold of them and had them temper their comments.

Sen. John McCain finally stole the show from the Obama campaign. And now I believe Senator McCain will be the next President of the United States.

Bloggers and pundits say Sen. McCain is desperate! I would say that Sen. McCain is very wise. I would suggest that Obama was "stupid" in choosing his running mate. He showed us how easily he would compromise his personal beliefs in order to win. "Change you can believe in." He pour cold water on his otherwise hot campaign.

So if you are a values based voter, you can now feel very proud and confident to place your vote with John McCain and Sarah Palin. They will restore integrity to the office and our reputation amongst the nations. National leaders who know John's story of his imprisionment in Vietnam, respect him -- for he is, as Sarah Palin said in her acceptance speech, "A living Profile in Courage."
