Where do we go from here

Hi

The news this week included the GOP gaining a senate seat once held by the late Senator Ted Kennedy. Much has been said about this and rightfully so.

My take is that this represents a statement by the American electorate. The Democrats are trying to put a different spin on the event, but it sounds weak and shallow. The Dems are just not being realistic, this should be a wake up call. The town hall forums and the tea parties are real. When coupled with the GOP wins in Virginia and New Jersey, what do the democrats need, a hit in the head. As a conservative I am glad the Dems are not aware of what is going on around them. It makes it easier to vote them out in November.

The republicans should take this as an omen. Good candidates and hard work will get conservative people elected. Use this as a stepping stone, not a free pass. The hardest work is yet to come. Buckle down, roll up the sleeves and get good candidates.

Stay tuned, the ride has just begun.

Please continue to pray for our brave warrior heroes.
GOD Bless

What have we in DC?

Hi

With all the problems going on in the world. Haiti, Iraq, Afghanistan, etc. we must ask ourselves what have we in office running the country. Sadly the answer is not good.

Our federal government is lacking in leadership. We see the president trying to push an unpopular agenda by bribing congress people, offering "exemption status" to a class of people (at the expense of the rest of the population). We need to stop this. Members of congress just continue to push the unpopular idea of "so called health care reform" down our collective throats. There are exceptions to the rule, one of the more prominent ones is Congressman Mike Rogers. I don't have the link but if you want to see what we need research this man and listen to what he says. I only wish we had a few (many) more like Mister Rogers in congress. We can start by electing the "anti health care boondoggle legislation" candidate in Massachusetts. I know I certainly hope he gets in. We need and deserve this. Keep the faith and hope he wins.

While this is unfolding, please continue to pray for our brave service people.
GOD Bless

Health care fiasco

Hi

I must write about the health care reform fiasco that is going around DC currently. Where do I begin.

The president is selling his political soul to get this passed (Dr Faust anyone). Congress is being bribed by the president. This all translates into a shaft job on the American people. What a bunch of cruds we have governing. If they would only adhere to our Constitution and obey the intent.

I am so sick and tired of this kind of treatment to the American populace, and I only hope that the voters show these people the door in November. Please do.

Please pray for the decent people who are defending our liberties.
GOD Bless

Is any one in charge?

Hi

Today I am worried about the safety of our nation because of the action (or lack thereof) by our president. He seems to be unsure of what to do to wage the war on terror and he acts like he doesn't want to offend anyone.

My specific concerns are the trials of the terrorists which have been shifted from Military Tribunals to a federal court in New York. Why was this done? The decision makes me think that the president does not comprehend the complexities of warfare. The acts of the terrorists were not criminal but war acts. They are out and out terror. I don't think that these people should get any protection under our constitution. They are not Americans and they are not prisoners of war, but they are enemy combatants. The president should never have moved the trials to an American city and a federal court. It is getting more difficult for me to understand the mind set of the people running the country. I truly hope we can hold out until the next election. Let us pray and hope that we can.

Continue to pray for our brave miitary people.
GOD Bless

Chaos in the dems camp

Hi

Well my wish is coming to pass, some of the worst legislators are giving up their senate seats. Good riddance. One of my biggest disappointments is the quality of person that we elect to office but it seems that some of them got the word, quit or get voted out. The tea parties and the town hall meetings have worked. Just goes to show what an aroused public can do. Keep it up people of America.

I do have some misgivings even with the departure of these characters. My question is what to do about the money they have received as campaign contributions? It's my understanding that they can keep it, I hope I'm wrong.

Now we the public have to seize the moment and elect replacements who are good and honorable people. The ball is in our court now.

Along with your prayer for our military I ask that you include a prayer asking for guidance in selecting good people to run the country.
GOD Bless

Intrigue about the Birth Certificate

Hi

I am not a black helicopter conspiracy theory kind of guy but the question of the birth place of the president has taken a new turn. This week the Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case concerning the legality of the birth certificate that Obama presented. Before we go into all kind of speculation let's take a deep breath and hold off drawing any conclusions. The only reason that I have brought this up is that there is virtually no media coverage of the matter. (Why am I not surprised?) The good news is that the innuendos will finally be put to rest. The court will make a determination and that should be final. Let's hope so. We, the American people need a final determination of the facts.


Along with your prayers for our armed services please pray the the Supreme Court makes the correct decision.
GOD Bless

New year -New leadership?

Hi

We have celebrated the new year, now we can hope for a better effort from our elected leaders. I think that the American people deserve this.

Soon the nation will be bombarded with rhetoric about the mid term (2010) election and this rhetoric should be focused on good leaders, not cheap two bit politicians. Let's get it right this time.

In some of my blogs I have mentioned some non politicians that I felt would be good candidates, maybe we can inspire some decent people to run. If they do run, let's go out and support them. Remember that old adage, "In a democracy you get the type of government that you want". It is time to show that the American people want representatives who care for the country, not political power. The ballot box is our chance. Remember this when you vote.

Please continue to pray for the service people.
GOD Bless
