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.

Compensations - Rush has this right! ... Thx Paul C!

Nailed This One~

Love him 
or loathe him, he nailed this one right on the 
head..........
By Rush 
Limbaugh: 

I think 
the vast differences in compensation between victims of 
the September 11 casualty and those who die serving our 
country in Uniform are profound. No one is really talking 
about it either, because you just don't criticize anything 
having to do with September 11. Well, I can't let the 
numbers pass by
because it says something really 
disturbing about the entitlement mentality of
this 
country. If you lost a family member in the September 11 
attack, you're
going to get an average of $1,185,000. 
The range is a minimum guarantee of
$250,000, all the 
way up to $4.7 million..
If you are a surviving family 
member of an American soldier killed in action,
the 
first check you get is a $6,000 direct death benefit, half 
of which is taxable.

Next, 
you get $1,750 for burial costs. If you are the surviving 
spouse, you get
$833 a month until you remarry. And 
there's a payment of $211 per month for each child under 
18. When the child hits 18, those payments come to 
a
screeching halt.

Keep 
in mind that some of the people who are getting an average 
of $1.185 million up to $4.7 million 
are complaining
that it's not 
enough. Their deaths 
were tragic, but for most, they were simply in the wrong 
place at the wrong time.
Soldiers put themselves in 
harms way FOR ALL OF US, and they and their families know 
the dangers.. (Actually, soldiers are put in harms way by 
politicians and 
commanding
officers.)

We 
also learned over the weekend that some of the victims 
from the Oklahoma City bombing have
started an 
organization asking for the same deal that the September 
11 families
are getting. In addition to that, some of 
the families of those bombed in the
embassies are now 
asking for compensation as 
well.

You 
see where this is going, don't you? Folks, this is part 
and parcel of over 50 years of entitlement politics in 
this country. It's just really sad. Every time a pay raise 
comes up for the military, they usually receive next 
to
nothing of a raise. Now the green machine is in 
combat in the Middle East while their families have to 
survive on food stamps and live in low-rent 
housing. Make 
sense?

However, 
our own US Congress voted themselves a raise. Many of you 
don't know that they only have to be in Congress one time 
to receive a pension that is more than $15,000 per month. 
And most are now equal to being millionaires plus. They do 
not receive Social Security on retirement because they 
didn't have to pay into the system. If some of the 
military people stay in for 20 years and get out as 
an
E-7, they may receive a pension of $1,000 per month, 
and the very people who
placed them in harm's way 
receives a pension of $15,000 per month. I would 
like to see our elected officials pick up a weapon and 
join ranks before they start cutting out benefits and 
lowering pay for our sons and daughters who are 
now fighting.


"When do 
we finally do something about this?" If this doesn't seem 
fair to you, it is time to forward this to as many people 
as you can. How many people
CAN YOU
send this 
to? ****************************
How
