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.

Time for God ... Thanks Tom & Carolyn!





From: jdrowson@live.com

Subject: Time For God





Read only if you
Have time for God

Let me
Tell you, make sure you read all the way to the bottom. I
Almost deleted this email but I was blessed when I got to
The end.









God, when I
Received this e-mail, I thought ...



I don't
Have time for this ... And, this is really inappropriate
During work.










Then, I realized
That this kind of thinking is Exactly, what has caused
Lot of the problems in our world today.










We
Try to keep God in church on Sunday morning.....










Maybe, Sunday
Night...










And, the
Unlikely event of a midweek service.










We
Do like to have Him around during sickness...











And, of course,
At funerals.










However, we
Don't have time, or room, for Him during work or play...











Because.. That's
The part of our lives we think .. We can, and should, handle on our own.










May
God forgive me for ever thinking...










That t
here is
A time or place where.










HE
Is not to be FIRST in my life.










We
Should always have time to remember all HE has done for us..











If,
You aren't ashamed to do this...










Please follow
The directions.










Jesus said, 'If
You are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you before my Father.'









Not
Ashamed?









Pass this on
ONLY IF YOU MEAN IT!









Yes, I do Love
God.









HE
Is my source of existence and Savior.









He
Keeps me functioning each and every day. Without Him, I will
Be nothing. But, with Christ, HE strengthens me. (Phil 4:13)







This is
The simplest test.









If
You Love God ... And, are not ashamed of all the marvelous
Things HE has done for you ....









Send this to ten
People and the person who sent it to you!




Now do you have the
Time to pass it on?









Make sure that
You scroll through to the end.









Easy vs. Hard










Why
Is it so hard to tell the truth but Yet so easy to tell a
Lie?









Why
Are we so sleepy in church but Right when the sermon is over
We suddenly wake up?









Why
Is it so easy to delete a Godly e-mail, but yet we forward
All of the nasty ones?









Of
All the free gifts we may receive, Prayer is the very best one .....









There are no
Costs, but wonderful rewards .... GOD BLESS!










Notes: Isn't it
Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell.









Isn't it funny how someone can say

'I believe in God' but still follow
Satan (who, by the way, also 'believes' in God).










Isn't it funny
How you can send a thousand jokes through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages
Regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing?









Isn't it funny
How when you go to forward this message, you will not send
It to many on your address list because you're not sure what
They believe, or what they will think of you for sending it to them.









Isn't it funny
How I can be more worried about what

Other people think of
Me than what God thinks of me.









I pray, for everyone who sends this to their entire address book, they will be blessed by

God in a way special for them.










And send it
back to the person who sent it, to let them know that indeed it was sent out to many more.

The last paragraph alone is not yet cast in stone. You and I will write that paragraph.
Will it read as above or will it be a more happy ending for most of America ?

Don't just belittle the opposition. Search for the truth. We all need to pull together or watch the demise of a free democratic society. Pray for Americans to seek the truth and take action for it will keep us FREE. Our biggest enemy is not China, Russia, North Korea or Iran . Our biggest enemy is a contingent of politicians in Washington , DC . The government will not help, so we need to do it ourselves.

Question....will you delete this, or pass it on to others who don't know about Obama's actions and plans for the USA, so that they may know how to vote in November, 2012 and the ensuing years?

It's your decision. I believe it does matter. How about you?

WHEN - November 2012 comes, it will matter who you vote for! "When you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing; when you see that money is flowing to those who deal not in goods, but in favors; when you see that men get rich more easily by graft than by work, and your laws no longer protect you against them, but protect them against you… you may know that your society is doomed." … Ayn Rand

Knowledge is Power – Read More About a Potential Security Threat

Type:
Tax Return Scam
Regions Affected:
All Regions
Source:
Tax season is the time of year when people work diligently to fulfill their obligations to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). It’s also when aggressive identity thieves target unsuspecting taxpayers to steal Social Security numbers and fraudulently file tax returns and claim refunds.
Knowing how to manage your sensitive information and identify when you’ve been targeted can help proactively protect your identity.

Important Tips to Remember:

Don’t keep important identity documents on your computer. Use a recordable disc or removable memory stick to store your personal information, especially if you file your taxes electronically. This will help safeguard these items in the event you download malware or your computer is hacked.
Scammers may pose as IRS representatives to steal your information. Through email, phone calls, websites and more, a fraudster or an identity thief will attempt to capture your personal information. You can verify all contact and information requests at http://www.irs.gov/contact.
The IRS will never initiate contact via email. If you receive any email communication informing you of an audit, announcing a refund, or asking for personal information, it's a red flag for fraud. Report all suspicious emails to phishing@irs.gov.

The white side of the story ... Thanks John & Yvette!


The White Side of the Story
This is the reason CNN has dropped Buchanan. It's like Newt G. in the debate.
You're not supposed to bring up uncomfortable Facts.
BUCHANAN TO OBAMA Finally........... It is Said Publicly. I have never seen the white side explained better! Pat Buchananhad the guts to say it. It is about time.


By Patrick J. Buchanan
Barack says we need to have a conversation about race in America .. Fair enough. But this time, it has to be a two-way conversation.. White America needs to be heard from, not just lectured to.... This time, the Silent Majority needs to have its convictions, grievances and demands heard. And among them are these:

First,
America has been the best country on earth for black folks. It was here that 600,000 black people, brought from Africa in slave ships, grew into a community of 40 million, were introduced to Christian salvation, and reached the greatest levels of freedom and prosperity blacks have ever known.. Jeremiah Wright ought to go down on his knees and thank God he is an American.

Second,
no people anywhere has done more to lift up blacks than white Americans. Untold trillions have been spent since the ' 60s on welfare, food stamps, rent supplements, Section 8 housing, Pell grants, student loans, legal services, Medicaid, Earned Income Tax Credits and poverty programs designed to bring the African-American community into the mainstream. Governments, businesses and colleges have engaged in discrimination against white folks -- with affirmative action, contract set-asides and quotas -- to advance black applicants over white applicants. Churches, foundations, civic groups, schools and individuals all over America have donated their time and money to support soup kitchens, adult education, day care, retirement and nursing homes for blacks.
We hear the grievances. Where is the gratitude??
Barack talks about new 'ladders of opportunity' for blacks. Let him go to Altoona ? And Johnstown, and ask the white kids in Catholic schools how many were visited lately by Ivy League recruiters handing out scholarships for 'deserving' white kids...?Is white America really responsible for the fact that the crime and incarceration rates for African-Americans are seven times those of white America ? Is it really white America 's fault that illegitimacy in the African-American community has hit 70 percent and the black dropout rate from high schools in some cities has reached 50 percent?
Is that the fault of white America or, first and foremost, a failure of the black community itself?

As for racism, its ugliest manifestation is in interracial crime, and especially interracial crimes of violence. Is Barack Obama aware that while white criminals choose black victims 3 percent of the time, black criminals choose white victims 45 percent of the time?

Is Barack aware that black-on-white rapes are 100 times more common than the reverse, that black-on-white robberies were 139 times as common in the first three years of this decade as the reverse?

We have all heard ad nauseam from the Rev. Al about Tawana Brawley, the Duke rape case and Jena And all turned out to be hoaxes. But about the epidemic of black assaults on whites that are real, we hear nothing.

Sorry, Barack, some of us have heard it all before, about 40 years and 40 trillion tax dollars ago. This needs to be passed around because, this is a message everyone needs to hear!!!

OK........... will you pass it on ?

YES. I did but will YOU?


Because I'm for a better America
I am
Not racist,
Not violent,
Just not silent anymore.

Grandparents in thre granchildrens' eyes ... Thanks Nita!

Keep reading:
The following were taken from papers written by a class of 8-year-olds:

WHAT IS A GRANDPARENT?
Grandparents are a lady and a man who have no little children of their own. They like other people's.

A grandfather is a man, & a grandmother is a lady!

Grandparents don't have to do anything except be there when we come to see them.. They are so old they shouldn't play hard or run.. It is good if they drive us to the shops and give us money.

When they take us for walks, they slow down past things like pretty leaves and caterpillars.

They show us and talk to us about the colors of the flowers and also why we shouldn't step on 'cracks.'

They don't say, 'Hurry up.'

They wear glasses and funny underwear.

They can take their teeth and gums out.

Grandparents don't have to be smart.

They have to answer questions like 'Why isn't God married?' and 'How come dogs chase cats?'

When they read to us, they don't skip. They don't mind if we ask for the same story over again.

Everybody should try to have a grandmother, especially if you don't have television because they are the only grownups who like to spend time with us.

They know we should have snack time before bed time, and they say prayers with us and kiss us even when we've acted bad.
MY GRANDMOTHER LIVES AT THE AIRPORT AND WHEN WE WANT HER, WE JUST GO GET HER. THEN WHEN WE'RE DONE HAVING HER VISIT, WE TAKE HER BACK TO THE
AIRPORT.

GRANDPA IS THE SMARTEST MAN ON EARTH! HE TEACHES ME GOOD THINGS, BUT I DON'T GET TO SEE HIM ENOUGH TO GET AS SMART AS HIM!

It's funny when they bend over; you hear gas leaks, and they blame their dog.

Send this to other grandparents, almost grandparents, or heck, send it to everyone. It will make their day.
(I hope this made you smile!!!!!)

Thomas Sowell likes Newt Gingrich



Absolutely on target !

"Many people are looking to the many primary elections on March 6th -- 'Super Tuesday' -- to clarify where this year's Republican nomination campaign is headed. It may clarify far more than that, including the future of this nation and of Western civilization. If a clear winner with a commanding lead emerges, the question then becomes whether that candidate is someone who is likely to defeat Barack Obama. If not, then the fate of America -- and of Western nations, including Israel -- will be left in the hands of a man with a lifelong hostility to Western values and Western interests. ... The election next November will not be just another election, and the stakes add up to far more than the sum of the individual issues. Moreover, if reelected and facing no future election, whatever political constraints may have limited how far Obama would push his radical agenda will be gone. He would have the closest thing to a blank check. Nothing could stop him but impeachment or a military coup, and both are very unlikely. A genial corrupter is all the more dangerous for being genial. The four remaining Republican candidates have to be judged, not simply by whether they would make good presidents, but by how well they can cut through Obama's personal popularity and glib rhetoric, to alert the voters as to the stakes in this year's election. ... Do any of the Republican candidates seem ideal? No. But, the White House cannot be left vacant, while we hope for a better field of candidates in 2016. We have to make our choice among the alternatives actually available, of which Obama is by far the worst." --economist Thomas Sowell

Unexplainable- inexcusable ... thanks Doug!



UNEXPLAINABLE, INEXCUSABLE --

I challenge you to read this and
have the will to pass it on.

No one has been able to explain to me why young men and women serve in the U.S. Military for 20 years, risking their lives protecting freedom, and only get 50% of their pay on retirement. While Politicians hold their political positions in the safe confines of the capital, protected by these same men and women, and receive full-pay retirement after serving one term. It just does not make any sense.



If each person who receives this will forward it on to 20 people, in three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message. This is one proposal that really should be passed around.

Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution: "Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States."

You are one of my 20+.

"If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice,"
