Welcome

Welcome to my blog http://www.skegley.blogspot.com/ . CAVEAT LECTOR- Let the reader beware. This is a Christian Conservative blog. It is not meant to offend anyone. Please feel free to ignore this blog, but also feel free to browse and comment on my posts! You may also scroll down to respond to any post.

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.

Re- Clark Rapalee Jack H Plymale

Sam, Clark didn't join us for the 1944 football season. He had his


band , which was pretty busy considering his school requirement. He

was always smart. He would have been behind a couple of guys with a

good bit more talent. He knew Elder, a horses butt, but not Walker who

played everybody if he had a two touchdown lead. Clark and I were good

friends from the first day we knew each other. Guys like him are what

made me love Portsmouth, so much.Jack P.

Re- The Sugar Bowl... Jack H Plymale & Sarah Rapp

Sam, I don't remember Dick Klitch. Must have been a heck of an


athlete. I remember Bill. He wasn't. I remember three Spencer girls .

Jeanette, Nell and an older one( name I forgot).. I am planning to

leave here for the states on 10 June and shortly thereafter the old

home town for what will probably be my last trip north. I think I

mentioned to you that Fout had to have a pacemaker. It seems all the

wheels are starting to come off,I don't know whether I sent you a

picture of Jim and myself taken, the first week in June 1944. We'll be

about a week late but we are going to try and recreate that little

jewel 66 years and a week or so later.I'll keep you posted.It should

be a laugher. Our kids will probably get a kick out of it. Time and

the tireless tides of nature are beginning to ravage us pretty good,

but we're hangin in there. Jack P.

Thoughts from our 'leader' Thanks Luis Flores!

Please Read And Forward Without Changing Or Adding A Single Word...





From Sunday's 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, Televised "Meet the Press" THE THEN Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag.





General Bill Ginn' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain WHY he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.





The General stated to Obama that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171...





During rendition of the national anthem, when the flag is displayed, all present (except those in uniform) are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. Or, at the very least, "Stand and Face It".





NOW GET THIS !!





'Senator' Obama replied:





"As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides". "There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression.." "The anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all that sort of thing."



(ARE YOU READY FOR THIS???)





Obama continued: "The National Anthem should be 'swapped' for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing'. If that were our anthem, then, I might salute it. In my opinion, we should consider reinventing our National Anthem as well as 'redesign' our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love. It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we, as a Nation of waring people, conduct ourselves like the nations of Islam, where peace prevails - - - perhaps a state or period of mutual accord could exist between our governments ...."







When I become President, I will seek a pact of agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation, have placed upon the nations of Islam, an unfair injustice which is WHY my wife disrespects the Flag and she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past".







"Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put my hatred aside . I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path.. My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First black Family. Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America "







Yes, you read it right.





I, for one, am speechless!!!





Dale Lindsborg , Washington Post





EVERYONE IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NEEDS TO READ THIS, KEEP IT GOING ! ! SAVE AMERICA BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE ! !
