Loretta was a popular cheerleader and friend at Portsmouth High School (class of 1950). My wife and I would see her occasionally in and about Columbus and PHS reunions and she was always a first class lady.
God will bring comfort to her caring family.

Obama and Israel-Palestenian Displacement and Holocaust
I am on the right side of politics, but this president was created by the joint efforts of the mafia and the muslims to bring down the USA as we have known it. He is effectively going about destruction of America in his daily speeches. Yes, he's scary!!

*Obama's stunning offense to Israel and the Jewish people*
By Anne Bayefsky

President yet again makes his intentions clear
*http://www.JewishWorldReview.com |* President Obama's Cairo speech was
nothing short of an earthquake — a distortion of history, an insult to the
Jewish people, and an abandonment of very real human-rights victims in the
Arab and Muslim worlds. It is not surprising that Arabs and Muslims in a
position to speak were enthusiastic. It is more surprising that American
commentators are praising the speech for its political craftiness, rather
than decrying its treachery of historic proportions.
Obama equated the Holocaust to Palestinian "dislocation." In his words: "The
Jewish people were persecuted. …anti-Semitism …culminated in an
unprecedented Holocaust…. Six million Jews were killed…. On the other hand,
it is also undeniable that the Palestinian people — Muslims and Christians —
have suffered in pursuit of a homeland." This parallelism amounts to the
fictitious Arab narrative that the deliberate mass murder of six million
Jews for the crime of being Jewish is analogous to a Jewish-driven violation
of Palestinian rights.
Speaking in an Arab country to Arabs and Muslims, Obama pointedly singled
out European responsibility for the Holocaust — "anti-Semitism in Europe
culminated in an unprecedented Holocaust." In other contexts, the European
emphasis would be a curiosity. In Egypt, it was no accident. The Arab
storyline has always been that Arabs have been forced to suffer the creation
of Israel for a European crime.
In fact, Obama's Egyptian hosts would have been only too familiar with Arab
anti-Semitism during World War II (and beyond). After all, Obama was
speaking in the country that schooled and later welcomed back Grand Mufti
Haj Muhammed Amin al-Husseini as a national hero. This was the man who spent
the war years in Berlin as Hitler's guest facilitating the murder of Jews.

Obama thought he would prove his even-handedness towards Israel by boasting
of Friday's trip to a concentration camp and rejecting Holocaust denial. In
this context, however, the move of doing Jews these supposed favors appears
to be cynical political opportunism, especially having just set the
Holocaust side-by-side with the "suffering" and "pain" of Palestinians "for
more than 60 years." After all, the president made no emotive references to
the "intolerable" "suffering" of Israeli victims of Arab terror "for more
than 60 years." The word "terrorism" never left his lips. Far from
bolstering the fight against terror and the anti-Semitism driving it, such
maneuvers embolden more hate and violence against Israelis.
Instead, Obama sought Arab and Muslim approbation by drawing a moral
equivalence between those who have rejected Israel from the outset (and
still seek its outright destruction or a "right of return" intended to
terminate a Jewish majority) and the Jews who have kept them at bay since
May 14, 1948. In his words: "There has been a stalemate: two peoples with
legitimate aspirations, each with a painful history…. It's easy to point
fingers — for Palestinians to point to the displacement brought about by
Israel's founding, and for Israelis to point to the constant hostility and
attacks." Calling the Israeli-Arab conflict a "stalemate" represents an
abysmal failure to acknowledge historical reality. The modern state of
Israel emerged after an internationally approved partition plan of November
1947 that would have created two states, one Jewish and one Arab; this plan
was accepted by Jews and rejected by Arabs. One people has always been
prepared to live in peace, and the other has chosen war in 1948 and 1956 and
1967 and 1973 and 1982, and renewed terrorism after its every loss.
Bereft of the most basic understanding of Judaism and Jewish history, Obama
claimed that "the aspiration for a Jewish homeland is rooted in a tragic
history that cannot be denied," for "around the world, the Jewish people
were persecuted for centuries." A Jewish homeland in Israel is not rooted in
tragedy or in centuries of persecution around the world. It is rooted in a
wondrous, unbroken, and spiritual relationship to the land of Israel and to
Jerusalem for thousands of years. Coupled with the president's stress on
"European responsibility" for the Holocaust, his words reinforced the lethal
belief that Israel is the creature of transplanted, alien Jews.
Obama's stunning offense to Israel and the Jewish people went farther.
Israelis have come to occupy territory in response to Arab-initiated wars of
intended annihilation, but Obama analogized Palestinian "daily humiliations
…that come with occupation" to the "humiliation of segregation" of black
slaves in America and the "moral authority" of "people from South Africa."
His Arab audience understood that the president of the United States had
just given a nod to the single most potent defamation of the Jewish state
today — the allegation that Israel is a racist, apartheid state.
After expressing his belief in a moral equivalence between the claims of
Palestinians and the claims of the victims of slavery and apartheid, Obama
juxtaposed his admission of Israel's "right to exist" with his assertion
that "the United States does not accept the legitimacy of continued Israeli
settlements." Every word of this speech was carefully weighed. It was
therefore no mishap that for the first time a U.S. president has denied the
legitimacy of Israeli settlements, period. Such an assertion abrogates every
agreement between Arabs and Israelis, which have always left the ultimate
determination of which settlements will stay or go to a bilateral peace
process and final status negotiations. Even the Roadmap reads: "Phase III:
Permanent Status Agreement and End of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict …a
final, permanent status resolution …on borders, Jerusalem, refugees,
settlements."
Furthermore, the idea that Jews are not permitted to live in any territory
that might become part of a future Palestinian state means only one thing:
apartheid Palestine. Twenty percent of Israel's population,1.5 million
people, are Arab (with more democratic rights than in any Arab state). But
the notion of any Jewish presence in Palestinian territory is allegedly an
abomination. Why should a future transfer of governmental authority mean "no
Jews allowed"?
But judging by Obama's speech, only one "dislocation" counts. After placing
the Holocaust side-by-side with the Palestinian "pain of dislocation," he
ignored the dislocation of 800,000 Jewish refugees from all over the Arab
Middle East in response to the creation of Israel.
Jewish refugees from Arab intolerance were not the only human-rights
casualties the president chose to dismiss. Three different times Obama
defended the right of Muslim women to cover up their bodies. Never once did
he mention the right of Muslim women to refuse to cover up their bodies — a
right denied on pain of arrest and death by many of the very communities he
was addressing. In the name of "freedom of religion" he chose to "welcome
efforts like Saudi Arabian King Abdullah's interfaith dialogue." The Saudi
Arabian government criminalizes the public practice of any religion but
Islam. This manufactured human-rights fantasy has done a tremendous
disservice to the oppressed across the Arab and Muslim world.
President Obama's meticulously planned and executed Egyptian speech marks
the lowest point in the U.S. presidency's understanding and appreciation of
the Jewish state, its history, and its people's future. Added to his
administration's evident infirmity on Iran, the speech of June 4, 2009, by
the supposed leader of the free world will be remembered as a major decline
in human history.

Clark Rapalee update- Deborah Ventura
Thanks Deborah! Rapp was a good friend of mine. He dropped in on us in Westerville for an hour or so about twenty years ago. I called Gib Lakeman, a football and Mound Park mutual friend and the three of us spent an hour or so talking about our youth. Gib and Clark attended Otterbein during the same time. Gib may have been a couple iof years older than Clark. Gib is also deceased.
I always had the greatest respect and admiration for Clark. His dad and mother gassed up their vehicle at Rase's Service Station on the corner of Hutchins and Sevennteenth just across the northwest corner of the park. They were a handsome and a very nice pair.
Clark played piano in his dad's little band. He sold to service stations for a while and told me then that the oil companies pushed a lot of stuff onto their retailers. He taught at Clay High School and the Vices had him as a teacher there.
Jack Plymale, who played on the Trojans with Gib and your dad (Clark played for a while) also thinks a lot of each of them.
I don't doubt that Clark's terrible war time experiences in Korea affected him. He was the same friend to me at all times.
I will [post this into my blog to remind people once again of a fine Rapalee family from Portsmouth, Ohio

Subject: Clark Rapalee
Hi Sam, I was googling my boyfriend of 15 years, Clark Rapalee, Jr. and myself just for fun today and found your blog from Dec. 10, 2008 (ironically that was the 19th anniversay of Audrie Rapalee's death). A man named Andrew Waber said that Mr Clark Rapalee was not on speaking terms with any of his children at the time of his death. This is not true. Clark and his son spoke on the phone and exchanged Christmas cards, birthday cards, etc. They were on speaking terms, albeit on an irregular basis. CLark Rapalee Sr was the one who rarely communicated with his children. I know for a fact that his son, Clark and his step-daughter Mary always tried to keep in touch with him. I found what this Andrew said to be untrue and he does not know the real story. Clark Sr's daughter Elizabeth and his younger son, John were not on speaking terms with him. Elizabeth had not been on speaking terms with him since 1980 so it had nothing to do with his marriage to his 3rd wife Jewell. Thanks for letting me set the story straight. I don't want people thinking that his children didn't care, because I know they cared very much. At least Clark Jr and Mary did. They were the only family to come to the funeral besides Jewell's daughter and her husband and myself.
Sincerely,
Deborah Ventura

Russian Journalist-American Capitalism Gone with a whimer
AFA ActionAlert
....and when you see these things happening, look up...your redemption draweth nigh.
Please help us get this information into the hands of as many people as possible by forwarding it to your entire e-mail list of family and friends.
This article is for your information. Please read.
Note from Don Wildmon: For years I have refused to use words such as Marxism, socialism or similar words when describing our current situation. However, it is time to call a spade a spade, regardless of how those who oppose us label us. Rome is burning. The article below was written by Stanislav Mishin, a blogger and columnist for the Russian newspaper Pravda.
American capitalism gone with a whimper . . . . .
It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people.
True, the situation has been well prepared on and off for the past century, especially the past twenty years. The initial testing grounds was conducted upon our Holy Russia and a bloody test it was. But we Russians would not just roll over and give up our freedoms and our souls, no matter how much money Wall Street poured into the fists of the Marxists.
Those lessons were taken and used to properly prepare the American populace for the surrender of their freedoms and souls, to the whims of their elites and betters.
First, the population was dumbed down through a politicized and substandard education system based on pop culture, rather than the classics. Americans know more about their favorite TV dramas than the drama in DC that directly affects their lives. They care more for their "right" to choke down a McDonalds burger or a BurgerKing burger than for their constitutional rights. Then they turn around and lecture us (Russia) about our rights and about our "democracy". Pride blinds the foolish.
Then their faith in God was destroyed, until their churches, all tens of thousands of different "branches and denominations" were for the most part little more then Sunday circuses and their televangelists and top protestant mega preachers were more then happy to sell out their souls and flocks to be on the "winning" side of one pseudo Marxist politician or another. Their flocks may complain, but when explained that they would be on the "winning" side, their flocks were ever so quick to reject Christ in hopes for earthly power. Even our Holy Orthodox (Russian Orthodox) churches are scandalously liberalized in America.
The final collapse has come with the election of Barack Obama. His speed in the past three months has been truly impressive. His spending and money printing has been a record setting, not just in America's short history but in the world. If this keeps up for more than another year, and there is no sign that it will not, America at best will resemble the Wiemar Republic and at worst Zimbabwe.
These past two weeks have been the most breath taking of all. First came the announcement of a planned redesign of the American Byzantine tax system, by the very thieves who used it to bankroll their thefts, loses and swindles of hundreds of billions of dollars. These make our Russian oligarchs look little more than ordinary street thugs, in comparison. Yes, the Americans have beat our own thieves in the shear volumes. Should we congratulate them?
These men, of course, are not an elected panel but made up of appointees picked from the very financial oligarchs and their henchmen who are now gorging themselves on trillions of American dollars, in one bailout after another. They are also usurping the rights, duties and powers of the American congress (parliament). Again, congress has put up little more then a whimper to their masters.
Then came Barack Obama's command that GM's (General Motor) president step down from leadership of his company. That is correct, dear reader, in the land of "pure" free markets, the American president now has the power, the self given power, to fire CEOs and we can assume other employees of private companies, at will. Come hither, go dither, the centurion commands his minions.
So it should be no surprise that the American president has followed this up with a "bold" move of declaring that he and another group of unelected, chosen stooges will now redesign the entire automotive industry and will even be the guarantee of automobile policies. I am sure that if given the chance, they would happily try and redesign it for the whole of the world, too. Prime Minister Putin, less then two months ago, warned Obama and UK's Blair, not to follow the path to Marxism, it only leads to disaster. Apparently, even though we suffered 70 years of this Western sponsored horror show, we know nothing, as foolish, drunken Russians, so let our "wise" Anglo-Saxon fools find out the folly of their own pride.
Again, the American public has taken this with barely a whimper...but a "freeman" whimper.
So, should it be any surprise to discover that the Democratically controlled Congress of America is working on passing a new regulation that would give the American Treasury department the power to set "fair" maximum salaries, evaluate performance and control how private companies give out pay raises and bonuses? Senator Barney Franks, a social pervert basking in his homosexuality (of course, amongst the modern, enlightened American societal norm, as well as that of the general West, homosexuality is not only not a looked down upon life choice, but is often praised as a virtue) and his Marxist enlightenment, has led this effort. He stresses that this only affects companies that receive government monies, but it is retroactive and taken to a logical extreme, this would include any company or industry that has ever received a tax break or incentive.
The Russian owners of American companies and industries should look thoughtfully at this and the option of closing their facilities down and fleeing the land of the Red as fast as possible. In other words, divest while there is still value left.
The proud American will go down into his slavery with out a fight, beating his chest and proclaiming to the world, how free he really is. The world will only snicker.

These men, of course, are not an elected panel but made up of appointees picked from the very financial oligarchs and their henchmen who are now gorging themselves on trillions of American dollars, in one bailout after another. They are also usurping the rights, duties and powers of the American congress (parliament). Again, congress has put up little more then a whimper to their masters.
Then came Barack Obama's command that GM's (General Motor) president step down from leadership of his company. That is correct, dear reader, in the land of "pure" free markets, the American president now has the power, the self given power, to fire CEOs and we can assume other employees of private companies, at will. Come hither, go dither, the centurion commands his minions.
So it should be no surprise that the American president has followed this up with a "bold" move of declaring that he and another group of unelected, chosen stooges will now redesign the entire automotive industry and will even be the guarantee of automobile policies. I am sure that if given the chance, they would happily try and redesign it for the whole of the world, too. Prime Minister Putin, less then two months ago, warned Obama and UK's Blair, not to follow the path to Marxism, it only leads to disaster. Apparently, even though we suffered 70 years of this Western sponsored horror show, we know nothing, as foolish, drunken Russians, so let our "wise" Anglo-Saxon fools find out the folly of their own pride.
Again, the American public has taken this with barely a whimper...but a "freeman" whimper.
So, should it be any surprise to discover that the Democratically controlled Congress of America is working on passing a new regulation that would give the American Treasury department the power to set "fair" maximum salaries, evaluate performance and control how private companies give out pay raises and bonuses? Senator Barney Franks, a social pervert basking in his homosexuality (of course, amongst the modern, enlightened American societal norm, as well as that of the general West, homosexuality is not only not a looked down upon life choice, but is often praised as a virtue) and his Marxist enlightenment, has led this effort. He stresses that this only affects companies that receive government monies, but it is retroactive and taken to a logical extreme, this would include any company or industry that has ever received a tax break or incentive.
The Russian owners of American companies and industries should look thoughtfully at this and the option of closing their facilities down and fleeing the land of the Red as fast as possible. In other words, divest while there is still value left.
The proud American will go down into his slavery with out a fight, beating his chest and proclaiming to the world, how free he really is. The world will only snicker.

Hiddenin the weeds- Paul & Mary Kegley
This is a beautiful story. Too bad we don't have more children like this.
HIDDEN IN THE WEEDS
Just two little boys were walking
Down a long and dusty lane;
They came upon this old white house..
With broken window panes.
The paint was faded, the shine was gone,
The grass had grown so high;
Still, they made their little feet
Go see what was inside.
They opened up the squeaky door,
And then it came to light,
This must have been an old church house
Once upon a time.
Dirty, dusty wooden pews,
A pulpit that still stood;
A Bible laid upon it,
Though the pages weren't too good.
An offering plate and song books, too
Were lying on the floor;
They must have left this old church fast
The day they closed these doors.
And over in the corner
A piano was still there;
It must have played a pretty tune,
But I guess nobody cared.
So little Bill looked up at Tommy,
And Tommy looked at Bill;
Why don't we clean this old church up,
And get these old pews filled?'
They took a rag and wiped the dust
To try and make things shine;
Then they took the offering plate
And put in it their last dime.
They took a broom and swept the floor,
And picked up broken glass;
They got it all so nice and neat,
And then they mowed the grass.
They lifted up the old church sign
And stood it by a tree,
Right down by that old dirt road,
Where everyone could see.
They ran back home to find Daddy gone,
But their Momma was inside,
Just to find her hurt again
Where Daddy had made her cry.
"Don't cry, Momma, wipe those tears,"
Little Bill and Tommy smiled,
"'Cause we have a big surprise for you,
Just down the road a mile."
Hand in hand they tugged at her,
Until they made her run.
"What is it, Bill, Oh, Tommy,
Just what have you kids done?"
And, then they came upon the house
Once hidden by the weeds;
There it stood, a country church,
Just like it used to be.
"But, what is it, Mother? What's with your tears?
We thought this would bring you joy."
"Yes, but hush kids now and listen close,
My two sweet precious boys."
They both got quiet and stood real still,
For the words they heard, so true,
Was Daddy praying in the church,
With his head bowed on the pew.
"Forgive me, Lord! Forgive me, Lord!
Though I'm not worthy of Your love;
Shine down on this sinner man,
Sweet Salvation from above."
"For I've been out in the world, You know,
Living my life all wrong,
Until I came upon this church;
The place where I belong."
"I never noticed it before,
All those times I passed it up;
I guess I wasn't looking, Lord,
Or maybe I was drunk."
"Bless, oh Lord, yes, bless, oh Lord,
The one who made me see,
This little church that used to hide
Behind all those tall weeds."
Then he raised his head and stood,
With his hands high in the air,
To find two dirty, tear-faced boys,
With Momma standing there.
They ran up to him, hugged him tight,
As their tears fell on the floor.
"Don't worry, kids, I'm not the Dad,
The one you've known before."
"Things are different for us now,
So keep on those pretty smiles,
And let's go gather people in,
To walk down these church aisles."
Then, Bill looked up at Tommy,
And Tommy looked at Bill;
"Come on, brother, let's get to work,
To get these old pews filled."
"For we need no special blessing
For cleaning up this church,
'Cause, God gave us back our daddy,
And that's more than gold is worth."
Sunday morning, pews all filled,
And smiles on every face,
Especially two little country boys,
The ones who found this place.
Though it was hid back in the weeds,
And so far out of sight;
Nothing's ever hard to find,
If you're walking toward God's light.
1 John 1:7 "But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have
fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, His Son,
cleanses us from all sin."
Won't you please share this with people you want to be blessed.

You gave me a Mountain-Another PatRichards Whitehead
Subject: Fwd: You Gave Me A Mountain! ! !
Great Story!!!!
Brenda was almost halfway to the
Top of the tremendous granite cliff.She was standing on a ledge where she was taking a breather during this, her first rock climb. As she rested there, the safety rope snapped against her eye and knocked out her contact lens. "Great", she thought. "Here I am on a rock ledge, hundreds of feet from the bottom and hundreds of feet to the top of this cliff, and now my sight is blurry." She looked and looked, hoping that somehow it had landed on the ledge. But it just wasn't there. She felt the panic rising in her, so she began praying. She prayed for calm, and she prayed that she may find her contact lens.
When she got to the top, a friend examined her eye and her clothing for the lens, but it was not to be found. Although she was calm now that she was at the top, she was saddened because she could not clearly see across the range of mountains. She thought of the bible verse "The eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth."
She thought, "Lord, You can see all these mountains. You know every stone and leaf, and You know exactly where my contact lens is. Please help me."
Later, when they had hiked down the trail to the bottom of the cliff they met another party of climbers just starting up the face of the cliff. One of them shouted out, "Hey, you guys! Anybody lose a contact lens?
Well, that would be startling enough, but you know why the climber saw it? An ant was moving slowly across a twig on the face of the rock, carrying it!
The story doesn't end there. Brenda's father is a cartoonist. When she told him the incredible story of the ant, the prayer, and the contact lens, he drew a cartoon of an ant lugging that contact lens with the caption, "Lord ,
I don't know why You want me to carry this thing. I can't eat it, and it's awfully heavy. But if this is what You want me to do, I'll carry it for You."
I think it would do all of us some good to say, "God, I don't know why You want me to carry this load. I can see no good in it and it's awfully heavy. But, if You want me to carry it, I will."
God doesn't call the qualified, He qualifies the called.
Yes, I do love GOD. He is my source of existence and my Savior. He keeps me functioning each and every day. Without Him, I am nothing, but with Him, I can do all things through Christ whostrengthens me. (Phil. 4:13)
