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.

Here is a Portsmouth girl (PHS 55) who tells it!


Some of you will remember e-mails I have sent about Fast & Furious – months ago and more recently. Well, what I said at the beginning of this murderous scandal is that it won’t just go up to Eric Holder but responsibility will go to Obama and Axelrod, Obama’s re-election chief – (he looks like Hitler_Smile so is right at home with the rest of the Chicago GestapoSmile....so......after almost two years of the worst AG in history trying to block Congressional committee from finding out exactly what happened to our soldier who was killed because of this operation, he today appealed to his boss and asked for Obama to use Executive Privilege (to save all their dirty butts), Obama DID and it was probably, once again, unconstitutional – Republicans are working to hold Holder in contempt today - something they SHOULD have done many months ago! – PLUS Axelrod and Holder hate each other and are telling different stories – a high price to pay for Nobama, et al. trying to create a situation that would help them get much stronger anti-gun laws if not to confiscate them altogether. Remember when Nixon tried this in the 70’s – his Executive Privilege was thrown out by the Supremes – not allowed if trying to hide truth from Congress – and told him to product same – he did and then resigned shortly thereafter.
Now Nobama and Holder will buy time (read: before election) as the case makes it way through the courts. But they can’t stop Republicans from holding that sneaky, lying piece of crap holder from being held in contempt of Congress by Republicans today after which their contempt order will (unfortunately go to a judge that Holder appointed, one of those 2 who are supposedly going to investigate who leaked highly damaging security information for Obama’s greater glory) – however, this attorney will have to give case to grand jury who will decide if Holder is guilty of contempt of Congress – this will all move faster than Nobama’s last stand, executive privilege, to stop info on Fast and Furious. As I say, Republicans should have held him in contempt at least a year ago and didn’t. Stupid and gutless.
If you want to find out more on this tune in to Fox because lamestream media has not been reporting anything much at all about it – big surprise – but now they HAVE to do more than mention in passing, hah. I am SO enjoying this ...  

Matt Jones KSR- The one sure way to the NBA


The One SURE Way to the NBA

calipar
Much has been made over the past few years of Calipari’s amazing run in recruiting while in Lexington. Since arriving three years ago, Calipari has put together four straight #1 classes and has made Kentucky the dominant name in recruiting circles year in and year out. While Calipari doesn’t get every single player he wants, every year he gets 4-5 of his top 7 choices, and that ensures that he enters each season stockpiled with talent. Many people, including Calipari critics searching for any thing that could bring the coach down, try to explain the success with one theory or another, as benign or nefarious as the viewpoint of the individual doing the asserting. But for me, the easiest explanation is also the most correct. If you come to Kentucky and are one of the top 6 players for John Calipari, you are virtually guaranteed to play in the NBA. Read that sentence again. If you come to Kentucky, and are either a starter or the sixth man for Calipari, you are virtually assured of playing professional basketball at its highest level. That is astounding, but also true. Just look at the last three Calipari teams:
2009-2010:
PG: John Wall
SG: Eric Bledsoe
SF: Darius Miller
PF: Patrick Patterson
C: Demarcus Cousins
6th: Daniel Orton
2010-2011:
PG: Brandon Knight
SG: Deandre Liggins
SF: Darius Miller
PF: Terrence Jones
C: Josh Harrellson
6th: Doron Lamb
(Practice Player: Enes Kanter)
2011-2012:
PG: Marquis Teague
SG: Doron Lamb
SF: Michael Kidd-Gilchrist
PF: Terrence Jones
C: Anthony Davis
6th: Darius Miller
It truly is astounding, but it is a fact. The best six players on every Calipari team will have a professional NBA career. What other coach can say that? In today’s college basketball, no one. And going back through history, it would be hard to find more than a handful of examples (none immediately leap into my mind) of any who have come close. And the magic doesn’t look to stop this year. Who are the top six this season?:
2012-2013:
PG: Ryan Harrow
SG: Archie Goodwin
SF: Alex Poythress
PF: Kyle Wiltjer
C: Nerlens Noel
6th: Julius Mays
Gary Parrish of CBSSports.com has written that he believes all five of UK starters are certain to play in the NBA and from my vantage point that seems almost assuredly correct. When you factor in an historically weak NBA Draft next year (some say it could be the worst ever), any of those on the border of the draft in another year might find next year’s might appealing. The one outlier could be Julius Mays, but at this point, would you bet against Calipari? Mays can score and his pro prospects certainly don’t look any dimmer at this time than Josh Harrellson’s did before his final year.
Even if Mays does become the one holdout, look at the likely 2013 crew Calipari will bring in…Andrew and Aaron Harrison, James Young, etc…isn’t it almost certain that team’s top six ends up in the NBA? Bottom line, trying to explain why Kentucky has recruiting success doesn’t take a solid basketball mind and it certainly doesn’t take a national journalist trying to slay the Calipari dragon. It is a simple syllogism:
A. I am a top recruit who will be a top 6 player at Kentucky
B. Every top 6 player at Kentucky plays in the NBA
C. Therefore I will play in the NBA

Australia isn't worried about offending muslims


----- Would this be politically correct in our Country? I think that this should be.


Australia says NO -- Second Time she has done this!

She sure isn't backing down on her hard line stance and one has to appreciate her belief in the rights of her native countrymen.

A breath of fresh air to see someone lead. Australian Prime Minister does it again!!

The whole world needs a leader like this!


Prime Minister Julia Gillard - Australia

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia, as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.

Separately, Gillard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying she supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques.

Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT... Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.'

'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom.'

'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!'

'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'

'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.'

'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.'

'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.'

NOTE: IF we circulate this amongst ourselves in Canada & USA , WE will find the courage to start speaking and voicing the same truths.

If you agree please SEND THIS ON and ON, to as many people as you know...

TEXAS SPEEDING TICKET - IS THIS GREAT?
OR WHAT!

TOP THIS ONE FOR A SPEEDING TICKET IN KINGSVILLE , TEXAS


Two Texas Highway Patrol Officers were conducting speeding enforcement on Highway 77, just south of Kingsville, Texas.

One of the officers was using a hand-held radar device to check speeding vehicles approaching the town of Kingsville.

The officers were suddenly surprised when the radar gun began reading 300 miles per hour and climbing.

The officer attempted to reset the radar gun, but it would not reset and then it suddenly turned off.


Just then a deafening roar over the mesquite tree tops on Highway 77 revealed that the radar had in fact, locked on to a USMC F/A-18 Hornet which was engaged
in a low-flying exercise near this, its Naval Air home base location in Kingsville, Texas.

Back at the Texas Highway Patrol Headquarters in Corpus Christi the Patrol Captain fired off a complaint to the
U. S. Naval Base Commander in Kingsville for shutting down his equipment.

The reply came back in true USMC style:

"Thank you for your letter…
"You may be interested to know that the tactical computer in the Hornet had detected the presence of, and subsequently locked on to, your hostile radar equipment and automatically sent a jamming signal back to it, which is why it shut down."

"Furthermore, an air-to-ground missile aboard the fully armed aircraft had also automatically locked on to your equipment's location."

"Fortunately, the marine pilot flying the Hornet recognized the situation for what it was, quickly responded to the missile system alert status and was able to override the automated defense system before the missile was launched to destroy the hostile radar position on the side of Highway 77, south of Kingsville."

"The pilot suggests you cover your mouths when swearing at them, since the video systems on these jets
are very high tech."

"Sergeant Johnson, the officer holding the radar gun, should get his dentist to check his left molar. It appears the filling is loose.
Also, the snap is broken on his holster."

Psychology 101 ... thanks Doug B.!





Psychology 101:
If you start with a cage containing five monkeys and inside the cage, hang a banana on a string from the top and then you place a set of stairs under the banana, before long a monkey will go to the stairs and climb toward the banana.

As soon as he touches the stairs, you spray all the other monkeys with cold water.

... After a while another monkey makes an attempt with same result ... all the other monkeys are sprayed with cold water.
Pretty soon when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to prevent it.

Now, put the cold water away.

Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new one.

The new monkey sees the banana and attempts to climb the stairs.
To his shock, all of the other monkeys beat the crap out of him.
After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs he will be assaulted.

Next, remove another of the original five monkeys, replacing it with a new one.

The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked.
The previous newcomer takes part in the punishment...... with enthusiasm, because he is now part of the "team".

Then, replace a third original monkey with a new one, followed by the fourth, then the fifth.
Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs he is attacked.

Now, the monkeys that are beating him up have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs.
Neither do they know why they are participating in the beating of the newest monkey.

Finally, having replaced all of the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys will have ever been sprayed with cold water.
Nevertheless, not one of the monkeys will try to climb the stairway for the banana.

Why, you ask?
Because in their minds...that is the way it has always been!

This, my friends, is how Congress operates... and this is why, from time to time:

ALL OF THEM SHOULD BE REPLACED AT THE SAME TIME.

Oh me! Thanks John L.!

 Oh dear!
