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.

Obama and his vacation book reading "Post American World" ... Thx Lyle S!





A picture is worth a thousand words. SOMEONE WAS AT THE RIGHT PLACE AT THE RIGHT TIME WITH A CAMERA. IT WAS REPORTED THAT PRESIDENT OBAMA WAS FURIOUS THAT HE WAS CAUGHT ON CAMERA AND IT WAS PUBLISHED AND TRIED TO BLOCK IT. The name of the book Obama is holding is called: The Post-American World, and it was written by a fellow Muslim.(Fareed Zakaria) "Post" America means: The World "After" America !" If each person sends this to a minimum of twenty people on their address list, In three days, all people in The United States of America would have the message. I believe this is one photo that really should be passed around.

Now Alma is a fine Christian and I try , but this one is for pilot friends ... Thx Alma H

You’ve probably seen this before!  But a great repeat!

Flying Rules to Live By

1. Try to stay in the middle of the air.
 2. Do not go near the edges of it.
 3. The edges of the air can be recognized by the appearance of ground, buildings, sea, trees and interstellar space. It is much more difficult to fly there.
 4. The three most common expressions in aviation are, "Why is it doing that?", "Where are we?" and "Oh Shit".
5.Weather forecasts are horoscopes with numbers.





 
6. Progress in airline flying: Now a flight attendant can get a pilot pregnant.
 7. Airspeed, altitude or brains: Two are always needed to successfully complete the flight.


 


8. A smooth landing is mostly luck; two in a row is all luck; three in a row is prevarication.
 9.I remember when sex was safe and flying was dangerous.
 10.We have a perfect record in aviation: we never left one up there!




 
11.If the wings are traveling faster than the fuselage, it's probably a helicopter - and unsafe.
 12. Flashlights are tubular metal containers kept in a flight bag for the purpose of storing dead batteries.




13. Navy carrier pilots to Air Force pilots: Flaring is like squatting to pee.

14. Flying the airplane is more important than radioing your plight to a person on the ground incapable of understanding it.
 15.What is the similarity between air traffic controllers and pilots? If a pilot screws up, the pilot dies; If ATC screws up, the pilot dies.
 16.If something hasn't broken on your helicopter, it's about to.

4. When a prang seems inevitable, endeavor to strike the softest, cheapest object in the vicinity, as slowly and gently as possible. - Advice given to RAF pilots during W.W.II.






 

 

5. The Cub is the safest airplane in the world; it can just barely kill you. - Attributed to Max Stanley, Northrop test pilot

Even Huckabee fears Tea Party who must vote Republican ... Thx Newsmax! Plus some SamKat thoughts

I think a lot of Governor Huckabee and I am not libertarian, although I don't fully understand what a true libertarian stands for.  The CPAC gave Rand Paul, a libertarian, their best mark at the convention./  I love his conservatism.  I don't love the Republican claimed conservatism when they keep touting guys like Christie and McClain.  Huckabee understands more the tough politics,, but he should realize that Tea Party candidates, who should also be assured, will not win as a third party.   Soo, Republicans should wake up and welcome Sarah Palin, Rubio, Paul, and all Tea Party people into their voting booth to select the correct candidates.  Be scared incumbent Republicans and Democrats in our Congress!  The Tea Party will affect the upcoming elections and will rep[[resent our citizens of the USA!

Mike Huckabee: Libertarianism Is Not Republicanism

There is a strong libertarian presence in the Republican Party, which was reflected at the Conservative Political Action Conference, but libertarianism is not conservatism, says former presidential candidate and Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee.

"CPAC is becoming increasingly libertarian over the past few years, and we saw that this year," Huckabee told Dick Morris, J.D. Hayworth and John Bachman on Newsmax TV's America's Forum on Monday.

"Libertarians have a very valid point of view, and increasingly we're seeing a libertarian influence for the Republican Party. But pure libertarianism is not Republicanism," he added. "They're welcome in the Republican Party, but don't act as if somehow libertarianism is a purer form of being Republican."

Story continues below video.



The Arkansas Republican said, however, that he doesn't put all the blame for Republican losses on Libertarian Party candidates taking votes from GOP candidates

"If 10 percent more of the social conservatives had voted in the 2012 election, Mitt Romney would be president today," Huckabee said. "They stayed home, in larger numbers, in part because they didn't feel like there was a message that really connected to them."

Huckabee said that the solution for Republican candidates is not to stay away from social issues, because "by doing so, you almost ensure defeat."

The former presidential candidate added that "a real conservative embodies the whole spectrum of conservatism, which is not only fiscal conservatism [but also] the idea that we need less government and the government we have ought to be more effective and more local."

Senior funnies from a good engineering friend ... Thx Jeff F!


Subject: Fwd: Stop laughing, we are all seniors





Garage Door. The boss walked into the office one morning not knowing his zipper was 20 Percent down and his fly area wide open.  His assistant walked up to him and said, 'This morning when you left your house, did you close your garage door?' The boss told her he knew he'd closed the garage door, and walked into his office puzzled  by the question.

As he finished his paperwork, he suddenly noticed his fly was open, and zipped it up. He then understood his assistant's question about his 'garage door.'

He headed out for a cup of coffee and paused by her desk to ask, 'When my garage door was open, did you see my Jaguar parked in there?'

She smiled and said, 'No, I didn't. All I saw was an old minivan with two flat tires..


Two elderly gentlemen from a retirement center were sitting
on a bench under a tree when one turns to the other and says: 'Slim, I'm 83 years
old now and I'm just full of aches and pains. I know you're about my age. How do you feel?'
 Slim says, 'I feel just like a newborn baby.' 
'Really!? Like a newborn baby!?' 
'Yep. No hair, no teeth, and I t hink I just wet my pants.'


A senior citizen said to his eighty-year old buddy: 
'So I hear you're getting married?'
 
'Yep!'
 
'Do I know her?'
 
'Nope!'
 
'This woman, is she good looking?'
 
'Not really.'
 
'Is she a good cook?'
 
'Naw, she can't cook too well.'
 
'Does she have lots of money?'
 
'Nope! Poor as a church mouse.'
 
'Well, then, is she good in bed?'
 
'I don't know.'
 
'Why in the world do you want to marry her then?'
 
'Because she can still drive!'


Threeold guys are out walking. 
First one says, 'Windy, isn't it?' 
Second one says, 'No, it's Thursday!' 
Third one says, 'So am I. Let's go get a beer..'


A man was telling his neighbour, 'I just bought a new hearing aid.
It cost me four thousand dollars, but it's state of the art.. It's perfect.'
 
'Really,' answered the neighbour . 'What kind is it?'
 
'
 Twelve thirty..'

Morris , an 82 year-old man, went to the doctor to get a physical. 
A few days later, the doctor saw Morris walking down the street with a gorgeous young woman on his arm. 
A couple of days later, the doctor spoke to Morris and said, 'You're really doing great, aren't you?' 
Morris replied, 'Just doing what you said, Doc: 'Get a hot mamma and be cheerful.'' 
The doctor said, 'I didn't say that.. I said, 'You've got a heart murmur; be careful.'

One more. . ..! 

A little old man shuffled slowly into an ice cream
parlour and pulled himself slowly, painfully, up onto a stool.
After catching his breath, he ordered a banana split.
 
The waitress asked kindly, 'Crushed nuts?'
 
'No,' he replied, 'Arthritis.'
 
Now, before you 'forget', send them on to some other folks you know who could use a good laugh.
 

Lest we forget ... Thx Ramey H!

Mansions (Veterans Memorial)
This is a very beautiful tribute to our military men and women.
This is simply awesome.
However, after you click on Mansions; do not click on anything else. It will start playing by itself. One of the best tributes to America's veterans and families...
