For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

Pathetic situation... Thanks Luis Flores!

Pathetic Situation




This is terrible.





Wonder why this country needs a tea-party "revival"?

The abuse of political correctness?

Symptoms of Corrupting Sickness




It would be interesting to create a poll with these two photos and have people guess what's happening. Most would never assume anything close to the real story. It appears to be a joyous homecoming, a reuniting of mother and son. The truth is not so heart warming.




The lady in the picture is the mother of an American that was ambushed in Fallujah , Iraq . Her son was murdered. His body was dragged around in the streets of the city, then burned and hung from the upper trusses of a bridge. The murderers gathered to celebrate and have their photos taken with the trophy.



The young sailor in the picture is one of the Navy SEALs that later captured the leader of the band of terrorist butchers and brought him to justice.



If the story ended there, it would still be an acceptable feel-good, good-guys-win story. Unfortunately, that's not the case - this Navy SEAL is facing criminal charges.



Because, somewhere along the timeline of his capture, the terrorist murderer suffered a school-yard fat lip, his captors are now being charged with nothing short of war crimes and facing discharge and imprisonment.



So, instead of celebration of justice served and heroes honored, these photos record betrayal, compounded mourning and the effects of a corrupting sickness.



From : SEALs assault case goes to court NORFOLK, VA "It's been very stressful," said Navy SEAL Mathew McCabe, 24, moments after his arraignment in military court at Naval Station Norfolk Monday on charges that he allegedly mistreated an Iraqi detainee.



The mother of slain Blackwater guard Jerry Zovko drove from Ohio to give each of the accused SEALs a blessed rosary and lend them her support. "These young SEALs are in this situation because they caught the mastermind behind the death of my son, and not only my son and his co-workers but also the marines who went into Fallujah after their death," said Donna Zovko. "I am very proud of these young SEALs and thankful to them. They did not do anything wrong."



May I ramble a bit? Think out loud, so to speak? I'm trying to make some sense of this. What title can I give to the mentality of a people that send their best to defend the whole and then betray them? To what shall I attribute the attitude of a people that habitually prosecute their heroes while defending their enemies? What creates a culture that allows people to vilify and isolate their most noble and deify their most corrupt?



I perceive more symptoms of a sickness, a corruption of the nation's heart and soul. I am tempted to label it 'liberalism' or 'progressivism', but those too are just symptoms of the infection. But this is nothing new, I recognized these symptoms four decades ago in the shameful treatment of our warriors returning from Vietnam, in the acceptance of Marines bombed in Beirut, in the ho-hum yawn of media coverage of Mogadishu (Black Hawk Down), in the return to mental numbness after 9/11, prosecution of the Marines of Haditha, assault of recruiters across the country, anti-war protesters at the gates of Walter Reed Army Hospital...



This sickness, this infection has gone untreated for far too long. Americans are a tolerant bunch. We've patiently waited for the ingrates among us to grow up and develop a sense of pride and awe in the greatness of America . It's not happening.



I'm tired of waiting. I'm fresh out of tolerance. There comes a time when the treatment for an infection cannot be postponed any longer, lest the patient die. Through history how many nations have habitually betrayed their defenders and survived?



Donna and I left our home at 4:00am, Monday morning and drove to Norfolk . We were in the company of four other patriots from the Raleigh area:

Don Gray of Military Appreciation Day and NC Gathering of Eagles.

Patrick Holbrook, NC Gathering of Eagles.

Russell Pope, NCFreedom.us

Randy Dye, Randy's Right Blog and NCFreedom.us



We joined a hundred or more others at Gate 5 of the Norfolk Naval Base to demonstrate support for Navy SEAL Mathew McCabe. Here are my photos.








Above: I met the SEAL's father, Marty McCabe.




After the arraignment hearings, McCabe came out to meet his supporters.







Above: McCabe and Jim Deihl, Gathering of Eagles








Thanks to Pat, Don, Randy and Russ for riding with us. Thanks to Russ and Randy for photos.




And thank you, Mathew McCabe, for your service to our country!



KEEP THIS GOING, PEOPLE!

DON'T LET IT STOP ANYWHERE UNTIL IT's BEEN AROUND THE WORLD TO EVERY TRUE AMERICAN.

Character is doing the right thing when no one is looking...

obama's dreams... Thanks Lyle Shover!

so bad but so good!




Attached Message



Obama is in his White House bed



One night, Obama is tossing restlessly in his White House bed. He awakens to see George Washington standing by him. Barack asks him, "George, what's the best thing I can do to help the country?"



"Set an honest and honorable example, just as I did," Washington advises, then fades away.



The next night, Obama is astir again, and sees the ghost of Thomas Jefferson moving through the darkened bedroom. Obama calls out, "Tom, please! What is the best thing I could do to help the country?"



"Respect the Constitution, like I did," Jefferson advises, and dims from sight.



Barack isn't sleeping well the third night when he sees another figure moving in the shadows. It is Abraham Lincoln's ghost. "Abe, what is the best thing I can do right now, to help the country?" Obama pleads.



Abe replies: "Go see a play".

Haircut Thanks Tom & Carolyn!

One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut. After the cut, he


asked about his bill, and the barber replied, 'I cannot accept money

from you, I'm doing community service this week.' The florist was

pleased and left the shop. When the barber went to open his shop

the next morning, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses

waiting for him at his door.



Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his

bill, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you , I'm

doing community service this week.' The cop was happy and left

the shop. The next morning when the barber went to open up, there

was a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.



Then a Congressman came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay his

bill, the barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you. I'm

doing community service this week.' The Congressman was very happy

and left the shop. The next morning, when the barber went to open up,

there were a dozen Congressmen lined up waiting for a free haircut.



And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between

the citizens of our country and the politicians who run it.





REMEMBER POLITICIANS AND DIAPERS SHOULD BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON



If you don't forward this you have no sense of humor. Nothing bad

will happen. Now send it to everyone you know.

Wake up America! Thanks Luis Flores!

Wake Up America !!!


An old West Virginia Hillbilly saying: You cannot get the water to clear up until you get the pigs out of the creek.



*SOME OF YOU MAY APPRECIATE THIS AND SOME OF YOU MAY NOT.*

*I DO NOT APOLOGIZE FOR SENDING THIS BECAUSE OF IT'S TRUTH.*



*If any other of our presidents had doubled the national debt, which had taken more than two centuries to accumulate, in one year, would you have

approved?*



*If any other of our presidents had then proposed to double the debt again within 10 years, would you have approved? *



*If any other of our presidents had criticized a state law that he admitted he never even read, would you think that he is just an ignorant hot head? *



*If any other of our presidents joined the country of Mexico and sued a state in the United States to force that state to continue to allow illegal

immigration, would you question his patriotism and wonder who's side he was on? *



*If any other of our presidents had pronounced the Marine Corps like Marine Corpse, would you think him an idiot? *



*If any other of our presidents had put 87,000 workers out of work by arbitrarily placing a moratorium on offshore oil drilling on companies that

have one of the best safety records of any industry because one foreign company had an accident, would you have agreed? *



*If any other of our presidents had used a forged document as the basis of the moratorium that would render 87000 American workers unemployed would you support him? *



*If any other of our presidents had been the first President to need a Teleprompter installed to be able to get through a press conference, would

you have laughed and said this is more proof of how inept he is on his own and is really controlled by smarter men behind the scenes? *



*If any other of our presidents had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to take his First Lady to a play in NYC, would you have approved? *



*If any other of our presidents had reduced your retirement plan holdings of GM stock by 90% and given the unions a majority stake in GM, would you have approved? *



*If any other of our presidents had made a joke at the expense of the Special Olympics, would you have approved? *



*If any other of our presidents had given Gordon Brown a set of inexpensive and incorrectly formatted DVDs, when Gordon Brown had given him a thoughtful and historically significant gift, would you have approved? *



*If any other of our presidents had given the Queen of England an iPod containing videos of his speeches, would you have thought it a proud moment for America ? *



*If any other of our presidents had bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia would you have approved? *



*If any other of our presidents had visited Austria and made reference to the nonexistent "Austrian language," would you have brushed it off as a

minor slip? *



*If any other of our presidents had filled his cabinet and circle of advisers with people who cannot seem to keep current in their income taxes,

would you have approved? *



*If any other of our presidents had stated that there were 57 states in the United States , wouldn't you have had second thoughts about his capabilities? *



*If any other of our presidents would have flown all the way to Denmark to make a five minute speech about how the Olympics would benefit him walking

out his front door in his home town, would you not have thought he was a self-important, conceited, egotistical jerk. *



*If any other of our presidents had been so Spanish illiterate as to refer to "Cinco de Cuatro" in front of the Mexican ambassador when it was the 5th of May (Cinco de Mayo), and continued to flub it when he tried again, wouldn't you have winced in embarrassment? *



*If any other of our presidents had burned 9,000 gallons of jet fuel to go plant a single tree on Earth Day, would you have concluded he's a hypocrite?*



*If any other of our presidents' administrations had okayed Air Force One flying low over millions of people followed by a jet fighter in downtown

Manhattan causing widespread panic, would you have wondered whether they actually get what happened on 9-11? *



*If any other of our presidents had failed to send relief aid to flood victims throughout the Midwest with more people killed or made homeless than

in New Orleans , would you want it made into a major ongoing political issue with claims of racism and incompetence? *



*If any other of our presidents had created the position of 32 Czars who report directly to him, bypassing the House and Senate on much of what is

happening in America , would you have ever approved. *



*If any other of our presidents had ordered the firing of the CEO of a major corporation, even though he had no constitutional authority to do so, would you have approved? *



*So, tell me again, what is it about Obama that makes him so brilliant and impressive? *



*Can't think of anything? Don't worry. He's done all this in 24 months -- so you have that much time to come up with an answer.*





*Every statement and action in this email is factual and directly attributable to Barrack Hussein Obama. Every bumble is a matter of record and completely verifiable. *



AND NOW, HE ACTUALLY WANTS US TO RE-ELECT HIM. HA WAKE UP AMERICA 2012 IS UPON US.



*I WONDER HOW MANY OF YOU WILL FORWARD THIS ? *

*"All it takes for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing."*
