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.

Conventional thoughts by American voters ... SamKat aka Sam Kegley

It was conventional thought and is still shared by many that the Democratic party was the party of the working class and the Republican Party was the party of the wealthy upper-class.   Many white-collar workers in my home town of Portsmouth Ohio became Republican as a status symbol for the higher types of white collar vs. us blue collar types.

Upton Sinclair wrote "The Jungle" in 1905, describing Chicago's stockyards where cattle went in and all kinds of food stuffs came out, without any waste, just all turned to food and profit, although including much unhealthy waste.  It described the poor work conditions and incited the union drive in America as much and more than anything else.

The pendulum swings and the workers continually enjoyed better conditions and food inspections assured more healthy products in the food industry.  after becoming an engineer, I admit that I also benefitted. The unions obtained highest wages for auto and steel industries, plus more expensive benefits-good for blue-collar; however, it made  profits for entrepreneurs and investors shrink. Other nations, mainly Japan, began encroaching into America's manufacturing, providing lower wages and fewer benefits.  The big three of the car industry - GM, Ford, and Chrysler have since given way to Toyota, Honda and Mitsubishi.  Other nations are making more competitive autos and the steel industry is mostly overseas.  Jobs are lower paying and scarcer in  America now.

Currently FDR's original Social Security benefits have been diluted and nearly killed by democrat representatives driving the USA's national debt over 19 trillion dollars.

The USA must vote conservative in 2016 or just give our country over to obama, the muslims, and the truly rich of the USA, Saudi Arabia, and the Middle East.

Wake up Amurica!

Be Stubborn - Support Donald Trump - But Not as third party Candidate! SamKat

Republican elites trying hard to elect Hillary!

My wife says I am stubborn and she is right!  I stubbornly support Donald Trump as the Republican nominee, but not as a third party candidate.  I am a Tea Party guy, not as many of their sites proclaim.  I am 83, contribute very little money anywhere; however, I have met many TeaParty members in an off-handed way and I truly believe they are the primary "movement" people behind the Trump candidacy.  Conservatives and Christians are in the Tea Party majority.

The elites of the republicans seem to be uniting with the elites of the democrats to win the presidency for the leftists again.  Haven't these last 7 + years convinced enough Americans that the leftist muslims are taking over our country.  obama was never a good American.  why don't media people say what he has declared?  "I am a muslim".  If there is ever a war between the USA and muslims, I will be on the side of the muslims".  If not direct quotes, these are close.  His closest advisors are anti-American.

Crooked Hillary will continue the obama tactics and win more riches for her and less freedoms for American citizens!

Wake up Amurica!

Koch - Not for Trump - Rinos money showing up Thx Newsmax!


Charles Koch Donates $3M in GOP Senate Races, But Not For Trump

Billionaire Charles Koch has donated $3 million to a super PAC working to protect the Republicans' majority in the Senate, while staying on the sidelines when it comes to Donald Trump's presidential campaign, a Federal Election Commission report being filed soon reveals.

Freedom Partners Action Fund brought in $8.1 million last month, Politico reports with most of the money coming from Koch and three more donors.

According to the FEC report, with the PAC shared with Politico, the other key donations came in from Wisconsin roofing billionaire Diane Hendricks and Arkansas Charles Koch, facing questions about his commitment to political spending, late last month donated $3 million to a super PAC spending heavily to protect the Republican Senate majority, according to a Federal Election Commission report set to be filed in the coming days.
The super PAC, Freedom Partners Action Fund, last month raised a total of $8.1 million, almost all of which came from Koch and just three other donors. Wisconsin roofing billionaire Diane Hendricks and Arkansas' Ronald Cameron, owner of Mountaire, the sixth-largest poultry company in the nation, each donated $2 million. Meanwhile, Virginia coal investor Richard Gilliam, founder of the coal extractor Cumberland Resources, donated $1 million, the report shows.

The news comes on the heels of a report that Mark Holden, a top aide for Koch and his brother David, had met with Trump, his campaign manager and others in Manhattan this past week. According to sources, the meeting was short and Koch's side made no commitments.

"We are happy to talk to anybody and hope they understand where we're coming from, and they will have more constructive positions than they've had," Koch told USA Today earlier in June.
Latest News Update
But Koch has termed Trump's attacks on U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel over his ability to remain fair while presiding over a lawsuit against Trump University as being "racist or it's stereotyping," as well as being "unacceptable."

In April, Koch stunned conservatives when he commented that Democrat Hillary Clinton may make a better president than any of the Republicans then  vying for the job and derided the rhetoric of both Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, who at that point was still in the race for the GOP nomination.

The chairman and chief executive officer of Koch Industries Inc., in an interview with ABC's "This Week"broadcast Sunday, also criticized "a tax code that subsidizes the wealthy."

Further, Trumps stance on fiscal issues and trade do not match up with the free-market side the Koch brothers back, and their advocacy groups have indicated that they do not plan to spend money to back Trump, Politico reports. 

The Koch networks have reserved $30 million in ad buys for key Senate races this fall and has already spent $12 million, including $10 million spent by the Freedom Partners Action Fund, the only super PAC in the Koch network, on ads for candidates in Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin.
Meanwhile, Americans for Prosperity, the Kochs' grassroots activism group, spent $1.7 million for ads and campaigning for Ohio Republican Sen. Rob Portman, who is being challenged by former Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland.
