Forward Article Glenn Beck says his family was accosted while watching a movie in a New York City park Monday night. On his radio show and his website today, Beck described the incident and said an angry moviegoer kicked a glass of wine onto his wife Tania’s back, and as she got up to walk away, a man shouted: “We hate conservatives here.”
“We didn’t leave. My staff this morning said: ‘Why didn’t you leave right away.’ That was uncomfortable,” Beck said, as he described the incident, which occurred while he and his family were watching a screening of Alfred Hitchcock’s “The 39 Steps” in New York’s Bryant Park. “I said because I have a right to watch a movie and enjoy a movie with my family in the park. I have a right.”
Beck said while he doesn’t expect “a warm welcome in New York City,” what bothered him “was the cowardly behavior of the hateful crowd,” he wrote on his website, glennbeck.com.
“Courage doesn’t come from a bag or a bottle — courage doesn’t come in mobs,” Beck said. “Courage comes alone, quietly. You won’t be drunk and you won’t be in a mob at the ultimate test of courage. You will be alone.
“It’s mob mentality,” he said. “People are braver when it’s in a bag or a bottle, and when they’re in the majority. All I can think of about the people around me all night is that I feel sorry for you — I really feel sorry for you.
"You are so arrogant and so convinced that you are absolutely 100 percent right and you are helping build a system that is fueled by hate.
“I swear to you I think, if I had suggested, and I almost did, ‘Wow, does anybody have a rope? Because there’s tree here. You could just lynch me.’ And I think there would have been a couple in the crowd that would have.”

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.

Warning From Holland... Thanks Dr. Hovermale!
Subject: FW: Fw: WARNING FROM HOLLAND ..
WARNING FROM HOLLAND ..
This Will Give You Cold Chills!
Geert Wilders is a Dutch Member of Parliament.
In a generation or two, the US will ask itself:
'Who lost Europe ?'
Here is the speech of Geert Wilders, Chairman, Party for Freedom, the Netherlands , at the Four Seasons, New York , introducing an Alliance of Patriots and announcing the Facing Jihad Conference in Jerusalem ..
Dear friends,
Thank you very much for inviting me. I come to America with a mission.
All is not well in the old world.
There is a tremendous danger looming, and it is very difficult to be optimistic.
We might be in the final stages of the Islamization of Europe.
This not only is a clear and present danger to the future of Europe itself, it is a threat to America and the sheer survival of the West.
The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization, facing an Islamic Europe.
First I will describe the situation on the ground in Europe . Then, I will say a few things about Islam. To close I will tell you about a meeting in Jerusalem ..
The Europe you know is changing.
You have probably seen the landmarks. But in all of these cities, sometimes a few blocks away from your tourist destination, there is another world. It is the world of the parallel society created by Muslim mass-migration.
All throughout Europe a new reality is rising: entire Muslim neighborhoods where very few indigenous people reside or are even seen.
And if they are, they might regret it. This goes for the police as well.
It's the world of head scarves, where women walk around in figureless tents, with baby strollers and a group of children.
Their husbands, or slaveholders if you prefer, walk three steps ahead.
With mosques on many street corners. The shops have signs you and I cannot read. You will be hard-pressed to find any economic activity. These are Muslim ghettos controlled by religious fanatics. These are Muslim neighborhoods, and they are mushrooming in every city across Europe . These are the building-blocks for territorial control of increasingly larger portions of Europe , street by street, neighborhood by neighborhood, city by city.
There are now thousands of mosques throughout Europe . With larger congregations than there are in churches. And in every European city there are plans to build super-mosques that will dwarf every church in the region. Clearly, the signal is: we rule.
Many European cities are already one-quarter Muslim: just take Amsterdam , Marseille and Malmo in Sweden . In many cities the majority of the under-18 population is Muslim. Paris is now surrounded by a ring of Muslim neighborhoods. Mohammed is the most popular name among boys in many cities.
In some elementary schools in Amsterdam the farm can no longer be mentioned, because that would also mean mentioning the pig, and that would be an insult to Muslims.
Many state schools in Belgium and Denmark only serve halal food to all pupils. In once-tolerant Amsterdam gays are beaten up almost exclusively by Muslims. Non-Muslim women routinely hear 'whore, whore'. Satellite dishes are not pointed to local TV stations, but to stations in the country of origin.
In France school teachers are advised to avoid authors deemed offensive to Muslims, including Voltaire and Diderot; the same is increasingly true of Darwin . The history of the Holocaust can no longer be taught because of Muslim sensitivity.
In England sharia courts are now officially part of the British legal system. Many neighborhoods in France are no-go areas for women without head scarves. Last week a man almost died after being beaten up by Muslims in Brussels , because he was drinking during the Ramadan.
Jews are fleeing France in record numbers, on the run for the worst wave of anti-Semitism since World War II. French is now commonly spoken on the streets of Tel Aviv and Netanya , Israel . I could go on forever with stories like this. Stories about Islamization.
A total of fifty-four million Muslims now live in Europe .. San Diego University recently calculated that a staggering 25 percent of the population in Europe will be Muslim just 12 years from now. Bernhard Lewis has predicted a Muslim majority by the end of this century.
Now these are just numbers. And the numbers would not be threatening if the Muslim-immigrants had a strong desire to assimilate. But there are few signs of that. The Pew Research Center reported that half of French Muslims see their loyalty to Islam as greater than their loyalty to France . One-third of French Muslims do not object to suicide attacks. The British Centre for Social Cohesion reported that one-third of British Muslim students are in favor of a worldwide caliphate.
I call the perpetrators 'settlers'. Because that is what they are. They do not come to integrate into our societies; they come to integrate our society into their Dar-al-Islam. Therefore, they are settlers.
The second thing you need to know is the importance of Mohammed the prophet. His behavior is an example to all Muslims and cannot be criticized. Now, if Mohammed had been a man of peace, let us say like Ghandi and Mother Theresa wrapped in one, there would be no problem. But Mohammed was a warlord, a mass murderer, a pedophile, polygmist, and had several marriages - at the same time. Mohammed himself slaughtered the Jewish tribe of Banu Qurayza. If it is good for Islam, it is good. If it is bad for Islam, it is bad.
Let no one fool you about Islam being a religion. Sure, it has a god, and a here-after with 72 virgins for
martyrs. But in its essence Islam is a political ideology. Islam wants to dictate every aspect of life. Islam means 'submission'. Islam is not compatible with freedom and democracy, because what it strives for is sharia.
Now you know why Winston Churchill called Islam 'the most retrograde force in the world', and why he compared Mein Kampf to the Quran.
The public has wholeheartedly accepted the Palestinian narrative, and sees Israel as the aggressor. I have lived in Israel and visited it dozens of times. I support Israel . First, because it is the Jewish homeland after two thousand years of exile up to and including Auschwitz, second because it is a democracy, and third because Israel is our first line of defense.
This tiny country is situated on the fault line of jihad, frustrating Islam's territorial advance. Israel is facing the front lines of jihad, like Kashmir, Kosovo, the Philippines , Southern Thailand, Darfur in Sudan , Lebanon , and Aceh in Indonesia . Israel is simply in the way. The same way West-Berlin was during the Cold War.
The war against Israel is not a war against Israel . It is a war against the West. It is jihad. Israel is simply receiving the blows that are meant for all of us. If there would have been no Israel , Islamic imperialism would have found other venues to release its energy and its desire for conquest. Thanks to Israeli parents who send their children to the army and lay awake at night, parents in Europe and America can sleep well and dream, unaware of the dangers looming.
Many in Europe argue in favor of abandoning Israel in order to address the grievances of our Muslim minorities. But if Israel were, God forbid, to go down, it would not bring any solace to the West. It would not mean our Muslim minorities would all of a sudden change their behavior, and accept our values.
The end of Israel would give enormous encouragement to the forces of Islam. They would see the demise of Israel as proof that the West is weak, and doomed.
The end of Israel would not mean the end of our problems with Islam. It would mean the start of the final battle for world domination. If they can get Israel , they can get everything.
So-called journalists volunteer to label any and all critics of Islamization as a 'right-wing extremists' or 'racists'. In my country, the Netherlands , 60 percent of the population now sees the mass immigration of Muslims as the number one policy mistake since World War II. And another 60 percent sees Islam as the biggest threat. Yet there is a greater danger than terrorist attacks, the scenario of America as the last man standing. The lights may go out in Europe faster than you can imagine.
An Islamic Europe means a Europe without freedom and democracy, an economic wasteland, an intellectual nightmare, and a loss of military might for America - as its allies will turn into enemies with atomic bombs.
Dear friends, liberty is the most precious of gifts. My generation never had to fight for this freedom, it was offered to us on a silver platter, by people who fought for it with their lives. We can only hand over this hard won liberty to Europe 's children in the same state in which it was offered to us. We cannot squander our liberties. We simply do not have the right to do so.
We have to take the necessary action now to stop this Islamic stupidity from destroying the free world that we know.
Please take the time to read and understand what is written here.

John's chicken farm... Thanks Sarah Rapp!
John's Chicken Farm
John was in the egg business. He had several hundred young layers
(hens), called 'pullets', and ten roosters to fertilize them. He kept
records, and any rooster not performing went into the soup pot and was
replaced.
This took a lot of time, so he bought some tiny bells and attached them
to his roosters. Each bell had a different tone, so he could tell from
a distance, which rooster was performing. Now, he could sit on the
porch and fill out an efficiency report by just listening to the
bells.
John's favorite rooster, Obama, was a very fine specimen, but this
morning he noticed Obama's bell hadn't rung at all! When he went to
investigate, he saw the other roosters were busy chasing pullets,
bells-a-ringing, but the pullets, hearing the roosters coming, would
run for cover.
To John's amazement, Obama had thought of a way to do it without work,
he had his bell in his beak, so it couldn't ring. He'd sneak up on a
pullet, do his job and walk on to the next one.
John was so proud of Obama, he entered him in the Chicago County Fair
and he became an overnight sensation among the judges.
The result was the judges not only awarded Obama the No Bell Piece
Prize but they also awarded him the Pulletsurprise as well.
Clearly Obama was a politician. Who else but a politician could figure
out how to win two of the most highly coveted awards on our planet by
being the best at sneaking up on the populace and screwing them when
they weren't paying attention.
Vote carefully in 2012, the bells are not always audible.

Maxine poses an Obamacare question! Good Question!
Let me get this straight . . . ....
We're going to be "gifted" with a health care
plan we are forced to purchase and
fined if we don't,
Which purportedly covers at least
ten million more people,
without adding a single new doctor,
but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents,
written by a committee whose chairman
says he doesn't understand it,
passed by a Congress that didn't read it but
exempted themselves from it,
and signed by a President who smokes,
with funding administered by a treasury chief who
didn't pay his taxes,
for which we'll be taxed for four years before any
"benefits" take effect,
by a government which has
already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare,
all to be overseen by a surgeon general
who is obese,
and financed by a country that's broke!!!!!
What could

Smokey Gibson- 90 on 6-26-2011
Jeanie and I attended Smokey's ninetieth birthday party Sunday. He looked good, but stayed in a chair beside his walker. Many took turns visiting the wise gentleman. We visited mainly with Don and Lois Wallace. Alice, Smokey's son and others gave a magnificent partyon his behalf. Alice said seventy-seven were invited and I think at least fifty were there. Not bad for a ninety year old Portsmouth guy.
Earl Smokey Gibson
Just a few things I know about Coach Smokey Gibson:
He played on an undefeated Portsmouth High School football team (about 1939 or 1940)
He helped coach an undefeated football team in 1954 or 1955
He is a classy gentleman and very easy to befriend
He married Alice on the banks of the Ohio River in Portsmouth
He used to cop a few good stories from the internet
He is a tough guy but oh so gentle
He loves my hometown of Portsmouth Ohio
Roy Rogers uncle (Hono Sly) taught him fishing on the Ohio River
He is in excellent shape, I didn’t say perfect for a young guy of 90
Jack Horton, once one of Portsmouth’s toughest but gentlest street fighters, said Smokey was respected and not to be messed with for his SF abilities.
Jeanie and I are proud to have him as our friend
He obtained a BS and a MA from Eastern Kentucky University- then Eastern State Teacher’s College
He was a forward observer officer for the US Army in WWII
He drove me to Ironton to celebrate the 100th birthday of Portsmouth Spartan and Detroit Piston star Glenn Presnell
Alice is a good friend like Smokey
Smokey was the most loyal friend to General Tom Schulte in the months before his death

Home invaders' worst nightmare-Dr. Hovermale
Subject: A home invader's worst nightmare.
Words of wisdom,
If you own a gun, you will appreciate this. If not, you should get one and
learn how to use it.
Shooting Advice:
Cops carry guns to protect themselves, not to protect you.
Never let someone or thing that threatens you get inside arm’s length and never
say "I’ve got a gun". If you feel you need to use deadly force for heaven’s
sake let the "first sound they hear be the safety clicking off", and they
shouldn't have time to hear anything after that if you are doing your job.
'The average response time of a 911 call is over 23 minutes* the response time
of a .44 magnum is 1400 feet per second.'
Clint Smith, Director of Thunder Ranch, is a drill instructor (Thunder Ranch is
a firearms training facility in Texas ). Here are a few of his observations on
tactics, firearms, self-defense and life as we know it in the civilized world.
"The most important rule in a gunfight is: Always win and cheat if necessary."
"Don't forget, incoming fire has the right of way.."
"Make your attacker advance through a wall of bullets. You may get killed with
your own gun, but he'll have to beat you to death with it, cause it's going to
be empty."
"If you're not shooting', you should be loading'. If you're not loading', you
should be moving', if you're not moving', someone's going to cut your head off
and put it on a stick."
"When you reload in low light encounters, don't put your flashlight in your back
pocket.. If you light yourself up, you'll look like an angel or the tooth
fairy... and you're going to be one of 'em pretty soon."
"Do something. It may be wrong, but do something."
"Shoot what's available, as long as it's available, until something else becomes
available."
"If you carry a gun, people will call you paranoid.. That's ridiculous. If you
have a gun, what in the hell do you have to be paranoid for?"
"Don't shoot fast, unless you also shoot good."
"You can say 'stop' or 'alto' or use any other word you think will work, but
I've found that a large bore muzzle pointed at someone's head is pretty much the

The purpose of fighting is to win. There is no possible victory in defense. The
sword is more important than the shield, and skill is more important than
either. The final weapon is the brain. All else is supplemental.

Words of wisdom,
If you own a gun, you will appreciate this. If not, you should get one and
learn how to use it.
Shooting Advice:
Cops carry guns to protect themselves, not to protect you.
Never let someone or thing that threatens you get inside arm’s length and never
say "I’ve got a gun". If you feel you need to use deadly force for heaven’s
sake let the "first sound they hear be the safety clicking off", and they
shouldn't have time to hear anything after that if you are doing your job.
'The average response time of a 911 call is over 23 minutes* the response time
of a .44 magnum is 1400 feet per second.'
Clint Smith, Director of Thunder Ranch, is a drill instructor (Thunder Ranch is
a firearms training facility in Texas ). Here are a few of his observations on
tactics, firearms, self-defense and life as we know it in the civilized world.
"The most important rule in a gunfight is: Always win and cheat if necessary."
"Don't forget, incoming fire has the right of way.."
"Make your attacker advance through a wall of bullets. You may get killed with
your own gun, but he'll have to beat you to death with it, cause it's going to
be empty."
"If you're not shooting', you should be loading'. If you're not loading', you
should be moving', if you're not moving', someone's going to cut your head off
and put it on a stick."
"When you reload in low light encounters, don't put your flashlight in your back
pocket.. If you light yourself up, you'll look like an angel or the tooth
fairy... and you're going to be one of 'em pretty soon."
"Do something. It may be wrong, but do something."
"Shoot what's available, as long as it's available, until something else becomes
available."
"If you carry a gun, people will call you paranoid.. That's ridiculous. If you
have a gun, what in the hell do you have to be paranoid for?"
"Don't shoot fast, unless you also shoot good."
"You can say 'stop' or 'alto' or use any other word you think will work, but
I've found that a large bore muzzle pointed at someone's head is pretty much the
universal language."
"You have the rest of your life to solve your problems.. How long you live
depends on how well you do it."
"You cannot save the planet, but you may be able to save yourself and your
family."
"Thunder Ranch will be here as long as you'll have us or until someone makes us
go away, and either way, it will be exciting."
