The Next 14 Days

Has only been 14 days since the world celebrated President Obama's 100th day in office? It feels more like 14 years. Here is a list of some of what has occurred in the last 14 days (you can't make this stuff up):

Yes, Obama. There is a God.

As I have (as well as many others) noted that when Obama was making his European apology tour tour for the U.S. he noted that the U.S. is not a Christian nation. He has also said that the U.S. must lead on important issues such as disarming nations of nuclear weapons and on global warming. Today he is showing the world that the U.S. is indeed not a "Christian nation" by not observing the National Day of Prayer. He is the first President since Congress voted for it and President Harry Truman signed it into law in 1952 not to observe it. He is truly leading by example, and is unfortunately leading this country down the road to damnation like the great cities of Sodom and Gomorrah as well as the great civilizations of Greece and Rome. We are turning away from God and all that He has done for this great nation, and are allying ourselves with evil. We are becoming friendly with the most evil nations of our day-Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, and more; while we are alienating our allies such as Great Britain, Israel, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia. Obama is walking a dangerous and deadly path. One that can only end with our destruction as a great nation.
Pray! Pray today like you have never prayed! Our fate rests with God and He is the only one who can save us from ourselves!

Savior Obama?

Is Obama not the savior? From all accounts I have been led to believe that he is the new Christ. After all, celebrations and sacrifices were held all over the world when he took the oath of office. People (women and men) swoon when they are near him and hear him speak. Babies are carried hand over hand by hoards of strangers up to him so that they may be kissed and blessed. he is supposed to save the world from itself and unite all peoples under him. He can do all this but he cannot heal one man?

When Obama went on his tour of Mexico, he met Felipe Solas who was the director of the National Anthropology Museum. He shook his hand and went on a tour of the museum led by Solas. Solas was sick at the time and actually died from pneumonia within a week of meeting Obama. It is still unclear if he had the Swine Flu (H1N1). The point is, he was sick and Obama's touch did not heal him. Why not? Did he feel the man was not worthy of saving? Was the man a non-believer in Obama and his power? Or is Obama just feigning being the savior?

Yes, all this is in jest, but the press would have you believe he can create miracles, walk on water, and yes, save people with his touch or voice. It is time to come down to reality, that Obama is just another man who talks the talk (but only with a teleprompter that is working correctly) but does not walk the walk.

It's Time To Close The Border

Forget PC (political correctness). It's time to close the border between Mexico and the USA. Forget the drug violence that is sweeping across the border into our towns. Forget the burden on the welfare system due the illegals coming across. Forget the burdens to our hospitals for the uninsured illegals. Forget all of this. It is time to close the border for medical reasons.

The new swine flu virus that is spreading in Mexico (with up to 106 dead at the time of this writing) is a public health concern to our people. Not to mention the outbreaks of hepatitis and tuberculosis that occur every year that are traced back to the immigrants. It is time for the government to step up and look out for our health and well-being by enforcing and totally closing the border to all illegals. Contain the spread of disease so that it does not kill Americans.

This will also help control drug violence, drug trafficking, U.S. dollars being sent to their countries, help our welfare system, and relieve the hospital situation.

It is time for the government to act now and enforce the law before we die.

I'm sorry, soooo sorry

With Obama on his World Apology Tour apologizing for The U.S. and all Americans, I would like to offer up my apology as well.

I am sorry we saved France during two World Wars and came to their aid in Vietnam. I am sorry we deposed Hitler, Mussolini, and Saddam. I am sorry we kept Europe safe from tyranny and totalitarianism. I am sorry we have sent aid to other countries especially following a disaster. I am sorry we intervened and stopped the genocide in Yugoslavia. I am sorry we kept missiles out Cuba. I am sorry we brought down the Berlin Wall. I am sorry we won the Cold War. I am sorry we fought to keep communism out of South Korea. I am sorry we put men on the moon. I am sorry for the all the technological advances we have given the world such as the telephone, phonograph, light bulb, movie camera, radio, television, assembly line, airplane, and Internet. I am sorry we have also give the world baseball, basketball, football, volleyball, skateboarding, snowboarding, cheerleading, lacrosse, and surfing. I am sorry we built the Panama Canal. Mostly, I am sorry there have been no more terrorist attacks on American soil since 9/11.

So, lets become an isolationist nation and leave the rest of the world to themselves. Lets take care of our own here and the hell with everyone else!

Where's the LOVE?

Note: The author of this blog is a self-proclaimed Independent voter. He voted twice for Reagan, did not vote for George H.W. Bush, voted twice for Clinton, did not vote for George W. Bush either time, and did not vote for Obama. If your counting, that's 3 votes Republican and 5 Democratic.

So where's the love in this country? Outside of this country there is love in the air. We love Hugo Chavez even though he calls Bush "Satan", Obama "Ignoramus", and gives Obama a book deriding the U.S. We love Daniel Ortega from Nicaragua even though he blasted the U.S. and JFK in rant with Obama present for 50 minutes. We love Iran even though they have laughed at us, scoffed at Obama's video, and have sentenced an innocent American girl to 8 years if prison. We love Fidel & Raul Castro even though they have done nothing to promote democracy or release political prisoners or anything else. So, Obama is practicing the Bible when he loves his enemies as himself.

But what of us here at home?

Here there is only hate for one another. Hate for the CEO's. Hate for banks. Hate for Wall Street. Hate for free enterprise. Hate for Democracy. Hate for people who do not believe in gay marriage (look at the set up of Miss California in the Miss USA pageant and the hate thrust upon her by Perez Hilton and other pro-gay groups). Hate for those who are Christian or Jewish. Hate for the Constitution. Hate for those who do not believe in abortion. Hate for veterans (for this and the previous one, look at the memo sent out by Homeland Security). Hate for all conservatives. Hate for anyone opposing Obama within the borders of the U.S. Hate! Hate! Hate!

Whatever happened to this is great country and we can agree to disagree? Whatever happened to love your neighbor. Whatever happened to tolerance? Tolerance does not mean you get to pick and choose who you will accept and listen to and who you won't. (look at recent events at UNC, UVA, and Notre Dame).

This administration promised HOPE and CHANGE that would bring all people together. Instead, they have brought more divisiveness than there has ever been. More promises broken and the country divided even more.
