Some of you know SamKat.
Jeanie likes to shop at the Polaris Mall. I normally settle into my office, the chairs or sofas outside of Penneys, to wait an hour or two.
You may also know my nickname, TIO- The Innocent One< although it must be realized that I do occasionally admire all of the beauty God has placed before us adoring men of beauteous ladies.
While waiting today, I read a recent Sports Illustrated article about the Olympic athletes from Hungary who escaped the wicked communist regimes domination. That was 56 years ago. They had rebelled and were promised self-rule: however the communists don't keep promises to their oppressed. Thus, many of the athletes defected, most to the USA. History is not a work of fiction.
Voters in America had better be fully awake this November election. All of their food stamps and other "gifts" could be taken away by this broken regime. Socialism or communism has never worked. Somebody has to work for a living. It has been wonderful that the workers here could work themselves up the ladder. It isn't just given to anybody, even in America, but what wonderful opportunities have been realized here!
Vote 'em out!

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.

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.

Lou Pritchett April 15, 2012 ... Thanks Judi!
***********************************************************************************************************************************************************
Lou Pritchett is one of corporate America's true living legends --- He is a former P & G executive, an acclaimed author, a dynamic teacher, and one of the world's most highly rated speakers. You may remember a previous letter he wrote in 2009 to President Obama and the New York Times which went viral. From a speech given by Lou Pritchett April 15, 2012: "I was born in year two of the Great Depression (1931) and spent the first 10 years of my life influenced by the extreme hardships of the depression. By today's standards my family was about a mile below today's so called 'poverty level'; but if you never 'had'---doing without was not so 'bad'. Borrowing shoes to graduate from the 8th grade didn't seem at all demeaning because most of the 8th graders did the same thing. In June 1944, my only brother, Joe, was killed in action on Utah Beach in Normandy, France during the D-Day landings. Exactly one year later, my father died and left me, my mother and my sister to go it alone. and alone we went. My mother went to work at a department store, my sister dropped out of school and joined her and I went to work shining shoes on the streets of Memphis for a dime a shine. Government assistance was not available and if it were I am confident my mother would have refused it because she never wanted the government involved in our lives. I mention this bit of personal history to help you understand that millions of Americans, including your parents and grandparents, grew up like me during the Great Depression and never expected nor wanted the government to offer them anything other than an Opportunity, and now to see what Obama is trying to do to our country tends to make you crazy. As some of you know, my "Scare Me" letter went viral with millions of hits on the internet during the past 3 years. I have now written a follow-up letter which I will now share with you. It will be released to the press." ********************************** ************************************* To the editors: "In April 2009, I sent President Obama and the New York Times a letter titled "You Scare Me" because, as a candidate, he promised to "fundamentally transform America." Now, after observing his performance for over three years, he no longer scares me--- he terrifies me for the following reasons: FIRST He has done more to damage America's standing in the world, to lower the standard of living in America, to impoverish future generations and to shake our faith in the country's future than any other American president in history. SECOND-- With a compliant Democrat congress, a lapdog media and a weak, almost nonexistent Republican opposition, he has shattered the American dream of job security, home ownership and rugged individualism for millions of Americans and has poisoned and divided our civil society with his politics of envy, class warfare, race warfare, and religious warfare which he is using as fundamental building blocks for his 'socialist' agenda. THIRD culturally, he remains totally out of touch with traditional American values. This has absolutely nothing to do with race or where he was born, rather it has everything to do with where, how and with whom he was raised, schooled, educated, trained and associates still today. FOURTH-- he has surrounded himself with naive academicians, lawyers, politicians, bureaucrats and socialist leaning czars who arrogantly think and behave exactly as he does. People who offer no balanced suggestions or devil's advocate positions and think in lock step with him that big government is the answer to all our problems. FIFTH-- he not only encourages but aids and abets the unionization of all American industry, the albatross around the neck of the free market. In turn, they provide the money and muscle to intimidate his opponents. SIXTH-- he has increased the national debt by over 30% in just three years. If re-elected and this rate of increase continues, America will be burdened with an unsustainable 20 trillion dollar debt which will result in the Country's financial death. Recovery will be impossible---------America will be the Greece of 2016. SEVENTH-- given his fanatical beholding to the 'environmental' and 'man-caused global warming' fringe, he has deliberately discouraged U.S. fossil fuel exploration and production while wasting millions of tax-payer dollars on solar, wind and algae experiments. He refuses to accept that oil, gas and coal are not America's enemies, they are America's assets, which, properly managed, could make us energy independent within a generation. EIGHTH-- He views the U.S. as a power in retreat which abused its World dominance. Therefore he systematically apologizes round the world. Last March he whispered to Russian President Medvedev "--this is my last election. After my election, I have more flexibility". Just what is the secret that Obama and Putin are concealing from the American people until after the election? With what other leaders has he made similar secret agreements? NINTH---and finally, after all his mis-steps, bad decision making, poor management, and zero leadership, the fact that he has the audacity to seek re-election should terrify every American. I predict that if re-elected, future historians and political interpreters will look back at the eight year period 2008-2016, and conclude "the 44th President of the U.S. allowed the takers to overpower the payers which resulted in the greatest economy in history vanishing from the face of the Earth. Farewell America, the World will really miss you! Lou Pritchett April 15, 2012 It is my hope and prayer that this letter will also go viral and serve as a 'wake up' call to Americans of all political leaning, convincing them that never before in U.S. history has so much depended on Americans understanding that we are facing one of the greatest crises in U.S. history. Convincing them that this election will be won not by letters to the editor, political speeches or radio and TV sound bites. No! it will be won by those with a conviction, with a belief and with a willingness to pay the price in helping put the most enlightened voters in the polling booth on November 6. Let me end on my favorite quote which I think is very appropriate for each of us today--- "TO EVERY MAN there comes in his lifetime that special moment when he is physically tapped on the shoulder and offered the chance to do a very special thing, unique to him and fitted to his talent; what a tragedy if that moment finds him unprepared or unqualified for the work which would be his finest hour. Those words spoken by Winston Churchill over 70 years ago are very appropriate today. For if each of us is prepared and is qualified then November 6, 2012, just might be our and our Country's finest hour as we reclaim this "shining city on the hill" from the ravages of Obama Socialism." ---Lou Pritchett From SNOPES: Mr. Pritchett confirmed to us that he was indeed the author of the much-circulated "open letter" quoted above: I did write the 'you scare me' letter.
