<a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=jeremiah+1&version=NKJV" target="_blank">Jeremiah 1:5</a><br />
So begins the book of Jeremiah. God tells Jeremiah "I knew you". What a pregnant statement. The God of all creation knew Jeremiah before he was even formed. Before he was even conceived God knew the prophet and had a plan for that prophets life!<br />
<br />
The <a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm+139&version=NKJV" target="_blank">Psalmist</a> elaborates even further "<span style="font-size: x-small;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; line-height: 24px;"><i>My frame was not hidden from You,</i></span><br />

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
People claim all the time that the Bible is an ancient book, irrelevant to today's society, that it has nothing to say about life as we know it today. It seems to me that in light of what we have witnessed in recent days-as not one-but two videos have surfaced-with more on the way-that expose in lurid detail the true nature of the abortion industry-that it is quite relevant to the issues we face today.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
By now most people have at least heard about -if not seen- the shameful and disgusting ways in which officials with the nations largest provider of abortion talk in almost cavalier fashion about procuring fetal livers, or obtaining fetal tissue in a "less crunchy" way. It is enough to turn the stomach!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It's amazing to me that it has taken this long for the truth about this evil and grotesque practice to really see the light of day. For years pro life activists and advocates for the unborn have been crying out to any and all who would listen about the horror of abortion. Time and time again the defenders of life have tried in vain to reason with the nation about the plight of the child in the womb, how precious lives were being snuffed out-before they even really had a chance to begin- but to no avail. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Voices have been raised attempting to call the attention of the public to the barbaric practice of partial birth abortion. It always seemed as though people were blind and deaf when it came to the realities of abortion. That has all changed. It is as if scales have fallen from the eyes of the public, and for the first time, people are grasping,and coming to grips with, what an atrocity abortion really is! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Suddenly it is beginning to dawn on people-even on those who for years have been ardent supporters of what is euphemistically called "a woman's right to choose"-that this really is a tiny human being that is being torn apart, that this is actually a human body being mutilated, that this really is a human life being destroyed, every single time an abortion is performed in this country!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
However to those who pay attention to the Word of God this is nothing new. Christians have known and argued for years that life begins at the moment of conception. We have not been taken by surprise by this recent turn of events. </div>
<div>
<br />
Our scripture informs us that each person is formed by God. God-the eternal God-the omnipresent and omniscient God-the ONE who can see past present, and future,has a plan for each and every human being. Does His plan always get fulfilled? No! It is never God's plan that one so little and full of potential should be ripped limb from limb by the abortionist.<br />
<br />
Our God is a God of life consider this passage from the book of <a href="http://biblehub.com/deuteronomy/30-19.htm" target="_blank">Deuteronomy 30:19</a><a href="http://biblehub.com/deuteronomy/30-19.htm" style="font-style: italic;" target="_blank"> </a><span style="background-color: #fdfeff; color: #001320; font-family: Trebuchet, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: italic; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;">"</span><span style="background-color: #fdfeff; color: #001320; font-family: Trebuchet, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;"><i>This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live" </i>God called upon Israel to choose life-and I don't think it is an accident that he mentioned-"so that...your children may live".</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; color: #001320; font-family: Trebuchet, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Trebuchet, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">God could see down through the long and dark corridor of human history to a future time when Israel would sacrifice their own children in the fires of the false god Molech. He could see down through that same dark passage-a passage darkened by man's disobedience to God-to our time. God in His eternal wisdom was speaking not only to Israel,but also all people,when he plead with them to choose life. Life for themselves and life for their children. He knew what people were capable of and what they ultimately would do. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Trebuchet, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Trebuchet, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">That is why He promises blessings for choosing life, but curses if we don't. Those promises and warnings are for us, for all people, for everyone! When parents choose life God's blessings come in the joy of raising children, watching them grow, and one day become productive adults raising their own brood. When parents choose to kill their offspring through abortion the curses come through a lifetime of guilt, regret and shame.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Trebuchet, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Trebuchet, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">There is so much to this whole subject that cannot possibly be covered in so small a space. Suffice it to say that the God of all creation,the God who is the author of ALL life, is not pleased with -what for many is a recent revelation-the killing and dissecting of unborn babies for any reason! </span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Trebuchet, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="background-color: #fdfeff; text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #001320; font-family: Trebuchet, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px;">It is my prayer that as more of these videos come to light, that perhaps, finally, enough people will be so sickened, and repulsed, by what they see that there will at last be a great groundswell of the people against this atrocity called abortion! That people won't just be horrified for a short time and then fall back into complacency, but will instead, be so outraged, so sickened, so enraged, by what they see that they will demand -nay scream- for Congress and this government to put and end to this vile and evil practice once and for all!</span></span></span><br />

Furthermore Jesus said that He had come to fulfill this <a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=matthew+5%3A17-19&version=NKJV" target="_blank">very law and not to destroy it</a>.</span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">Jesus was no stranger to controversy. In the passage I opened this article with Jesus faced criticism for dining with "tax collectors and sinners". </span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">The Pharisees,who considered themselves quite righteous in their own eyes, could not understand how a person professing to be a teacher of God's Word could stoop so low as to hob knob with such riffraff.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">However Jesus associating and visiting the tax collectors and sinners did not mean He approved of what they were doing. On the contrary </span></span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">Jesus pointed out that healthy people didn't need doctors sick people do. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">Jesus obviously considered sin to be a spiritual sickness and He-as the great physician-had come to heal them. He was spending time with these folks not because he approved of what they were doing, but because he knew they needed to be saved from what they were doing.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">I argued that Jesus had spent time with tax collectors and sinners in order to confront them with their sin and to tell them that there was,and still is, a better way. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">You see Jesus loved-not only homosexuals but all who sin-so much that he died on a cross, bearing their punishment, taking their shame, so that they could, through believing in Him,be set free from the bondage of </span></span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">sin in general and </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">homosexuality in particular. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">You see Jesus loves sinners but he hates sin. He hates the destruction, and confusion that sin wrecks upon peoples lives. Jesus doesn't just hate the sin of homosexuality but the sin of lying, cheating, stealing, adultery, fornication etc etc .</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">So are Christian bakers or florists or anyone who refuses to take part in a "Gay" wedding showing hate and intolerance? No! they obviously feel strongly that -for them- it would be wrong to participate in the celebration of something that is -by Biblical standards-wrong.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">The Bible says that all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. That the wages of sin is death, but, that the free gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ. Jesus said that He came to call sinners to repentance. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">Today Jesus is calling homosexuals to repent-turn away from -their sin and come to Him. In return He will heal them and free them from the bondage their sin keeps them in. And not only homosexuals but heterosexuals who have problems with adultery </span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">Jesus is calling liars and thieves and drunkards to cry out to Him for salvation. Jesus is calling people who are righteous in their own eyes to realize their sinfulness and turn to Him and be saved. </span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">In short Jesus is calling to all mankind to turn to Him and be saved. Saved from sin ,saved from their own self delusion, but most importantly, to be saved from the wrath and anger of a righteous and Holy God against such sins.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">So you may ask what must I do to be saved? If you will confess that you are a sinner, be sorry for your sin and turn from sin to Jesus Christ,accept Jesus as Lord of your life,and believe in your heart that God has raised Jesus from the dead, then the Bible says you will be saved. It is simple as that.</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-size: 16px; line-height: 24px;">Jesus did not come to pat us on the back and approve of our sins. He came to make us conscious of our sins and to provide the way for us to be saved from them, and He did it out of love. What we do with this knowledge is up to us. </span></span></span></div>

<a href="http://now.mercuryone.org/" target="_blank">#neveragainisnow </a>That is the title of this article. It refers to a movement started by Glenn Beck to draw attention to the plight of the Christians in Iraq and Syria. It has grown to also include all those who daily suffer persecution at the hands of ISIS.<br />
<br />
It is a reference to the mantra I have heard since I was a child that we should never again allow a holocaust to happen such as the one that was perpetrated against the Jews and others by the Nazis.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately in our day we are witnessing a modern day genocide. However this time it is a genocide against Christians as well as anyone else ISIS happens to hate or disagree with at the moment, and yet the world does nothing.<br />
<br />
In America we have come all unglued over the Supreme Court decision legalizing same sex marriage. Great crowds of people are fuming over the plight of Christian Bakers in Oregon and- I include myself in both these groups-yet we are silent about the mass killing of Christian men and the systematic rape and selling into slavery of Christian women and children. How can this be?<br />
<br />
I suppose to some extent it has to do with the crisis being a half a world away. We feel as though there is nothing we can do to effect what is happening on the ground, and so ,we do nothing at all. I have to admit I haven't done much myself. I have spoke about it in my church group. Mentioned it for prayer several times. Heck I even pray for those suffering almost daily. We feel powerless.<br />
<br />
However we -I-all of us- may be underestimating the power of prayer. Jesus taught "<a href="http://biblehub.com/niv/matthew/7.htm" target="_blank">ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find knock, and it shall be opened to you.</a> Prayer is probably the most powerful,and yet, most underutilized weapon in a Christians arsenal. Look at what happened leading up to the day of Pentecost for the early disciples. The Bible tells us that a handful of believers were together, focused in prayer, and the place where they were praying was shaken!<br />
<br />
The Holy spirit came down filled ,and, empowered the Apostles and disciples and more than 5000 people came to faith in Jesus Christ! A world religion was born and the world gradually transformed by the power of prayer.<br />
<br />
To be sure there is much we can do aside from prayer. There are several ministries that are focusing on bringing relief to the victims of ISIS. On of those is <a href="http://www.mercuryone.org/" target="_blank">Mercury One</a> and there <a href="http://now.mercuryone.org/" target="_blank">#neveragainisnow </a>campaign. Another is <a href="https://gobgr.org/projects" target="_blank">Baptist Global Response</a>. These and other ministries are worthy of our prayers and our support,but, perhaps the most powerful thing we all can do is pray for the people who are being daily thrown from their homes, killed ,raped, and tortured.<br />
<br />
Pray that God will give them boldness to stand firm for Christ. Pray that God will meet their need for daily necessities, shelter and safety. Pray also for those who are caught up in the evil which is ISIS. Pray that God will convict them of their sin and bring them to a saving conviction of Jesus Christ as Lord.<br />
<br />
We also should pray that the Lord would open the eyes of our leaders, and ,the world to see the plight of these people and that we would take our pledge to never again allow a holocaust happen again seriously and take whatever action is needed to bring an end to ISIS and set these people free from tho horrors this bunch of thugs is perpetrating.<br />
<br />
Well that's all I have for tonight. You will notice the picture at the top of the page. It is from an article titled "<a href="http://www.clarionproject.org/news/price-flesh-selling-women-islamic-state-caliphate" target="_blank">The Price of Flesh:Selling Women in The Islamic State Caliphate</a>" it tells just a small part of the story of this atrocity in our time . My prayer is you will take time to get informed and speak out against this evil in our time.Freedomloverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08838184555644319220noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3269989001283924998.post-41231999412911951482015-06-21T16:27:00.001-05:002015-06-21T16:27:22.846-05:00In Christ and Christ alone.<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Today marks a new beginning for this blog. In the past I have used this blog to express my political thoughts and opinions. Starting today this will also be a place where I will put forth my thoughts on not only politics, but also, faith, from a Christian perspective. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The name I gave myself when authoring this blog was "Freedomlover". It means one who loves freedom. I have always known -though not always practiced it- that true freedom is to be found in a relationship with Christ and Christ alone. I can almost hear someone saying 'c'mon now in Christ and Christ alone? Yeah that's what I said</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Jesus said of Himself "I am the way the truth and the life" He didn't say He was one of many ways,or that he was one of many truths,or even one of many lifes. He said He was-and is- The way,The truth, and The life.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Well what does that mean? It means that He is the only way to the Father. In other words the only path to a relationship with God is through Jesus Christ. It means that he is the One source of truth. If we are to know truth at all it is only through Him. It means that He is the source of all life.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Well ,you protest, that would make Him God! Bingo! That's right Jesus is God the Son, and the only way to know God the Father, and to know what is actually true, and to have real life is through Him.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Then what in the world does that have to do with freedom? Everything. God is freedom. God is the creator of freedom. From the very beginning God -after He had created people- gave those people freedom. Unfortunately they used that freedom to disobey God and that caused them to become-in short- slaves to sin. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
That's also bad news for us because through them we also became enslaved to sin. That means we are rebels against God the same as they were and slaves to sin also. Their relationship with God was broken and so is ours and without a relationship with God we can't know freedom. We can't experience what real freedom is!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
However that's where true freedom in Christ and Christ alone comes in. The prophet Isaiah predicting the coming of Christ said this... </div>
<div>
<a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah+61%3A1&version=ESV" target="_blank"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: inherit;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">"The Spirit of the Lord</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"> </span><span class="small-caps" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant: small-caps; line-height: 24px;">God</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">is upon me,</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">because the</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"> </span><span class="small-caps" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant: small-caps; line-height: 24px;">Lord</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"> </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">has</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"> </span><span class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-ESV-18845B" data-link="(<a href="#cen-ESV-18845B" title="See cross-reference B">B</a>)" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 22px; position: relative; top: 0px; vertical-align: top;"></span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">anointed me </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">to bring good news to the poor; </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">to proclaim liberty to the captives,</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">and</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;"> </span><span class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-ESV-18845C" data-link="(<a href="#cen-ESV-18845C" title="See cross-reference C">C</a>)" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 22px; position: relative; top: 0px; vertical-align: top;"></span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 24px;">the opening of the prison to those who are bound"</span></span></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
That was,and is, Jesus mission in a nutshell. To set mankind free from captivity to sin, to bring us out of bondage to our own evil desires,to set us free from the prison of despair and hopelessness caused by our estrangement from God,to heal the brokenness of our hearts caused by sin.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
How does He do this? He sets us free when we admit that we have been in rebellion against Him-remember He is God-that we have sinned against Him and ask Him to forgive us. If we will do that we will be-as the<a href="https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+8%3A36&version=ESV" target="_blank"><span style="color: #cc0000;"> Bible</span> </a>says-free indeed! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">You may have noticed the picture at the top of this page. The name of the picture is Forgiven!. It speaks of how we are set free when we are forgiven by God through faith in Christ and Christ alone. This is all made possible because Jesus bore our punishment for sin on the cross hence the crown of thorns, the nail, and the mallet. The Bible -The Word of God- represents Jesus because He was the word made flesh.</span></div>
<div>
<br />
As time goes by I will be writing more about this, and how faith and freedom in Christ should and does impact our world, our politics and our nation. For now ask yourself the question "Am I really free?" Have you been set free by Jesus? Have you experienced true freedom? The answer to those questions can all be found in God's Holy Word the Bible. Pick up a Bible today and prayerfully ask God to show you -through His word-true freedom.<br />
<br />

Well it has been a while since I have haunted the pages of this blog,but,on the twelfth anniversary of 9-11-2012 and the first anniversary of 9-11-2012 I felt it proper and necessary to write down my thoughts and remembrances of those days.<br />
<br />
I'll start with Sept 11,2001. At that time I was a student in seminary in Kansas City Missouri. I had no classes the day before and my first class on that fateful Tuesday morn was not until 10:00 am.<br />
So I left my home -approximately 125 mile from KC around 6:00 am.<br />
<br />
The trip was uneventful. At that time the only talk station I could get all the way to KC was a local NPR station that I found out later was not broadcasting live that morning. I had no idea of what was happening as I traveled to my destination. I arrived in KC around 9 o'clock that morning. It was a wonderful day. Not a cloud in sight-but -a strange sight met my eyes as I pulled into the parking lot on campus.<br />
<br />
I looked into the sky and saw a contrail in the sky in the form of a perfect circle-I later found out it had been left by a jet circling waiting to land at KCI airport- I didn't think much about it as I was a short distance north of the city airport in Kansas City and a little east of Kansas City International. As of yet I still did not know what was happening .<br />
<br />
I went to my room turned on the T.V with the sound muted and began studying. It wasn't until nine forty five when I turned up the sound and actually looked at the picture that I had my first clue that something was not right in America!<br />
<br />
I simply could not believe what I was seeing it appeared that jet airliner had just hit one of the towers at that moment I heard Katy Curic telling me I was watching a replay of just that a plane hitting the World Trade Center! I thought I had been seeing a preview of some Hollywood movie-and- thought wow these special effects re getting too good. Unfortunately it was not a special effect it was the real thing.<br />
<br />
Over the next hours I sat transfixed watching the news filled with horror,grief,anger,and sorrow. I raged and prayed and wept at what I saw happening to my countrymen.<br />
<br />
It is a day I will never forget. I could write a book about the things I saw and experienced that day alone. The only comfort in the whole day came at Chapel at noon that day. My fellow students and I ,along with faculty and staff gathered in the Chapel to seek God and to pray for the victims of this horrific event.<br />
<br />
There were students there from Africa,Europe,China all over the world,but,on that day, in that hour, we were all Americans. This account barely scratches the surface of that day,and,the days that followed. Time has brought a certain amount of closure,but,the wounds of that day still seem fresh all these years later.<br />
<br />
Flash forward to Sept.11,2012 I don't remember when I first heard about Benghazi. It was probably sometime on the 12 0f Sept last year. One thing I do recall is thinking this is what happens when you have a weak President in the White House. This was the culmination of a President trotting the globe apologizing for all the supposed sins of America. This was the expected outcome from a President that projected an image of weakness rather than strength. I felt as though this would never have happened under George W. Bush,and if it had, it would have been met with a swift and decisive response.<br />
<br />
Instead what we got was a cover up, lies,smokescreens,and out right propaganda from this corrupt administration! And still the smokescreen continues. The latest is this Syrian debacle. It has most assuredly done what it was intended to do,take America's attention off from Benghazi,the NSA scandal, the IRS scandal and all the other scandals of this administration .<br />
<br />
In Benghazi we saw the unbelievable as a President did nothing for hours as an American Ambassador and three other brave American heroes died. Obama,or someone in his administration-told forces that could have helped to stand down while other assets that could have been brought to bear on the situation were never called in.<br />
<br />
If the truth ever comes out while this man is still President I believe it will lead to his impeachment. I was proud of the way George Bush handled 9-11-2001. I have been sickened by what has happened in Obama's America since 9-11-2012!Freedomloverhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08838184555644319220noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3269989001283924998.post-11807087099882990342013-05-17T22:19:00.001-05:002013-05-17T22:19:18.110-05:00I'm mad as hell and I won't take it anymore<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<li>I haven't blogged here for some time. Funny it seems since the communist got in the WhiteHouse conservative blogs like this one have been buried. Perhaps a little collusion between this administration and Google. That's an argument for a different time. What I have to say today is that the government of this country is out of control!</li>
</ol>
<div>
The recent revelations of abuse of power by the I.R.S. and the Obama administration -and don't tell me Obama didn't know about this-is beyond the pale. I have never seen this kind of nonsense. I have listened to these people get up on Capitol Hill and claim they don't know any thing about anything.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
These people claim to be in charge of the largest departments of our federal government and they claim not to know what the hell is going on! Pardon my language but Bullshit!</div>

It is amazing how these people lie to cover their ass! At one point Steven Miller retiring/resigning commissioner is asked a question and he say's I'll have to refer to my notes and then the Congressman say's you have notes? Then this scum bag says well I don't know and something like I think I have notes. These scum bags make me sick! Listen for yourself.<br />

Wow! What an awesome day today in Wisconsin!!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Scott Walker's victory against an all out attack by the Progressive Unions(what a big misnomer progressive is) is a huge victory for America!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is proof positive once again that Conservative policies work!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
When walker took office he faced a deficit of 3.6 Billion dollars. What! A deficit of 3.6 Billion! Since taking office he has turned that state around ,and,now Wisconsin is on track to have a $89.5 million dollar surplus by June 2013. This is what fiscal sanity looks like.!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
He has created a model for America to follow. This nation has got to get it's fiscal house in order. Taxes must be cut,budgets must be examined and waste eliminated,and special interests- like public sector unions- have to make sacrifices for the good of this nation.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The liberal media will never report on how this man has saved the state of Wisconsin. I pray that Mitt Romney will follow his lead on a national scale and set this country back onto the path of economic security. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We all have too much to lose if we don't get this Presidential election right. I earnestly hope that America will follow in the footsteps of Wisconsin and demand that the Wisconsin Model be applied to our national politics and save this nation from economic ruin. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The future of our children and their posterity hangs in the balance. Come November let us all look to Scott Walker -and-Wisconsin-as an example of how to set our National house in order and prevent -what could be- the downfall of America!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Congratulations Scott Walker! Congratulations Wisconsin,and,may God save America!!<br />

What a powerfull video! "If I wanted America to fail" <a href="http://www.theblaze.com/stories/twitter-suspends-account-of-group-that-created-viral-if-i-wanted-america-to-fail-video-without-explanation/" target="_blank">According to the Blaze</a> this video was banned by Twitter. <br />
<br />
This video hits the nail on the head. It lays out what the liberal progressives have been doing to this country for at least forty years.<br />
<br />
I have said before that the left has declared war on America. If any other country tried to do what we have done to ourselves we would have gone to war against them long ago.<br />
<br />
It's time to wake up America. I something doesn't change within the next 4 years our economy is set to collapses.<a href="http://todayspoliticsfreedomlover.blogspot.com/2012/01/end-of-america-times-are-getting-ready.html?showComment=1329232655591#c4138973982423832510" target="_blank"> The end of America</a> as we have known her will become a reality in our lifetimes and our posterity will ask us why the hell we did nothing to stop it!<br />
<br />
Take time to watch this powerfull video and then share it,blog it,tweet it, and help it to go viral. America needs to hear the message that is contained in this message from <a href="http://freemarketamerica.org/" target="_blank">Free Market America</a><br />

The author presents a very compelling argument that the U.S.A. is on a similar path of the one followed by Russia when the Communist took over in 1917!</div>

I found this interesting article over at the Blaze entitled<a href="http://www.theblaze.com/stories/get-a-load-of-this-slightly-threatening-email-from-the-obama-re-election-campaign/"> " Get a Load of This Slightly Threatening Email From the Obama Re-Election Campaign"</a> in the article they report relates how the Obama campaign is using Chicago style strong arm tactics to pressure supporters into donating to his campaign.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The article states...</div>

<span style="color: red; font-size: large;">As you may have noticed, <strong>we’ve asked you for a donation a few times now.</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-size: large;">But according to our records, you haven’t yet made an online donation to this campaign at this email address. (If our records are wrong, I apologize and thank you!)</span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-size: large;">I’m not writing to ask you for money again. <strong>I’m actually writing to ask your opinion about why you haven’t given</strong><em><strong>,</strong></em> and what you think would inspire you or other Obama supporters like you to decide to take the leap and donate.</span><br />

<span style="color: red; font-size: large;">There’s a good reason we’re asking for your feedback: <strong>The kind of organization we all decided to be a part of only works if people like you pitch in to build it.</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: red; font-size: large;">It’s also the reason no other candidate has been able to match our level of grassroots support. This isn’t the easiest way to run a campaign — but we know it’s the right way.</span><br />

Well I just couldn't resist following the link which takes one to a survey that asks why or why not you haven't handed some coin over to the anointed one yet! I guess they can't figure out that nobody has any money because they have wrecked the economy.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
But I digress. So I decided to take the survey. I came to a button that said "I doo not plan to donate and chose it. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I next found a box that said "If other please specify" followed by a box where you could type in your explanation. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I chose to reply that I could not support a freedom destroying communist for President of the united States.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
What a hoot! I invite any who read this-and oppose Obama- to do the same. </div>

Who knows maybe,just maybe, they'll get the message!</div>

Herman Cain may well be out of the Presidential horse race but his 9-9-9 tax proposal is not.<br />
<br />
It is high time for people of all political persuasions to demand <a href="http://cainconnections.com/solutions">real solutions</a> from our elected officials in Washington.<br />
I have spoken here in the past about tax reform. In particular the <a href="http://todayspoliticsfreedomlover.blogspot.com/2009/08/its-american-thing.html">Fair Tax.</a><br />
If you consider yourself a Tea Party person-or are just plain tired of the tax code mess-then you need to get behind this proposal!<br />
<br />
We all need to demand from ALL the candidates that they get behind this simple,common sense,and truly progressive idea for reforming the way we do taxes in America.<br />
<br />
Now some have said that Cain's 9-9-9 plan for tax reform won't work. To that I say bullony! It worked out pretty well in Russia. Yep thats right Russia! And<a href="http://www.cato.org/pubs/policy_report/v29n4/cpr29n4-1.html"> not only Russia but about 19 nations </a>in total have instituted flat taxes,and, in most cases they have had good success with them.<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="274" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/c6LewsTO4HI?rel=0" width="480"></iframe><br />
Maybe a flat tax will work in America,maybe it won't,but I think it is well worth a try. It is my opinion that if we could let every American keep more of his or her own money that is a good thing.<br />
<br />
If we can reduce corporate rates to 10 percent this country becomes a very attractive place for manufacturers to come and do business,and if ,you add in a flat national sales tax on new goods then everybody gets skin in the game because even people in the underground economy start paying taxes<br />

I found this today over at <a href="http://www.theblaze.com/stories/marines-rallying-around-former-pfc-arrested-for-trying-to-check-gun-at-empire-state-building/">"The Blaze .com"</a> it's a story of a former Marine who was arrested-and imprisoned- while visiting New York City!<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Apparently this young man is a loyal,honest,law abiding citizen, whom the city of New York has decided is a threat to society!!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
According to the article on the <a href="http://blaze./">Blaze.</a>..</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">

Yeah you read that right this young man faces at least 3and 1/2 years in prison! Why because he carried a licensed handgun into the Empire State building. As he was buying a ticket to the building he realized he was still packing a handgun and sought to check his gun in-when he did so-he was subsequently arrested and spent two days in the slammer for nothing more than exercising his <a href="http://civilliberty.about.com/od/guncontrol/p/2nd_amendment.htm">Second Amendment rights</a> under the <a href="http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/constitution.html">Constitution </a><br />
<br />
It seems this young man is a jeweler who was carrying gold to New York to be melted down by a gold refiner.<br />
He was carrying a licensed gun for personal protection. Well hell yeas if i were to go to New York with gold I would want a little protection myself.<br />
<br />
What really ticks me off about this story is that this man is a third generation Marine,highly trained in the use of firearms,trusted by the government of these United States,as well as, someone who has honorably serves these United States.<br />
<br />
This is nothing short of an outrage. The second amendment clearly spells out the right of citizens to "HAVE and BEAR arms" hello! How much longer will the people of these United States tolerate having their rights trampled underfoot by theses politically correct assholes?<br />
<br />
Perhaps if New York City-and the entire east coast- would respect the Constitution maybe, just maybe, there would not be the level of crime and violence that plagues that part of the country.<br />
<br />
If this story makes you mad then take action.

Recently I watched a video from stansberryresearch.com. It was a video at<a href="http://www.stansberryresearch.com/pro/1110PSITESVD/6PSIN106/PR"> www.newamerica26.com</a> showing in very simple easy to understand terms that the wheels are about to come off the American bus,and, very soon if something doesn't change real quick.<br />
<br />
In fact it may already be to late. In the words of the video you will see at this site what is about to happen to this nation will threaten our freedom,security, and our very way of life.<br />
<br />
The way we work,where we live,and in essence everything we do is about to radically change because we have spent way more money than we have and are printing worthless money at an astonishing rate.<br />
<br />
Soon we may even see the dollar quit being the reserve currency of the world,at which time, America's money will be worth nothing,and, to put it mildly our asses will be cooked.<br />
<br />
Please take time to visit these links,watch the video,and get prepared for the economic disaster that will rock this nation.Then if you don't like the idea that we may see the end of America check out this link outlining <a href="http://www.harborpublishing.com/reports/ptra.html">"How to stop the end of America"</a><br />

God bless and may God save America<br />

Well, well, well, the lame stream media is at it again. Yes the meisters of spin are in overdrive twisting and taking out of context the words of Mitt Romney who said"I like to fire people".<br />
<br />
It was all over the morning shows...<br />
"Romney makes mistake on campaign trail"<br />
or some drivel like that. Give me a break by now we all know Mitt was talking about firing his insurance company!<br />
<br />
This is what's wrong-not with politics-but journalism! Instead of just reporting the story in its context and allowing people to decide for themselves they chose to try to fool people into thinking Mitt loves nothing better than to fire working people and then laugh at their misfortune.<br />
<br />
What intellectual dishonesty! For the sake of full disclosure I admit right here that I am no fan of Mitt Romney. I think he is a great guy,a good upright moral man,but,I don't want him to be President. With that said neither can I sit idly by while the media distort what Romney said. in regards to insurance companies he was saying he likes to have the choice not to retain their services.<br />
<br />
Hell who doesn't. If the restaurant I go to doesn't serve me well I'll go somewhere else. Oh my God I just fired that establishment!<br />
<br />
Come to think of it it is the same in the real world-as I heard on the radio today- haven't we all worked wit h some jerk we wish we could fire?<br />
<br />
Its time we be honest with each other we all like to fire people. I like to fire people and I can think of three people I would really like to fire,Barack Obama,Harry Reid,and Nancy Pelosi and if I have to vote for Romney for that to happen, I will! I know Mitt will like firing them now lets see if our other candidates want to too.<br />
<br />
Now watch the rest of the story<br />

<br />
<br />
What comes after the Tea Party? Revolution!! So say's Herman Cain in his latest video launching his new campaign "<a href="http://cainconnections.com/video/cain-connections-intro">Cain Solutions Revolution</a>"!! Wow he is back and back big time!<br />
<br />
Herman is inspiring,defiant, and sounding a rallying call for all true conservatives to stand up and be counted!<br />
Cain say's "We the people are coming and we want our power back".<br />
<br />
Well said Herman. We the people are sick and tired of politicians who think they can manipulate us. Who think that we are just pawns in their power game!<br />
<br />
The sleeping giant of the American populace is indeed awake and we want real change. Not the phony change of the Obama regime but the change that will come when we return to the founding principles of this great republic.<br />
<br />
Cain calls for a revolution,for history to repeat,in other words for We The People to stand up and let <u>All the politicians</u>, both left and right, that it is We The People who call the shots.<br />
<br />
His is a clarion call for all those who love this country to put our elected officials on notice that real change in this country comes from the bottom up not the top down!<br />
<br />
We don't need a nanny state telling us what is good for us. Rather we demand a government that will respond to the will of We The People!<br />
<br />
Herman begins this video by saying "they think we are stupid". In other words the liberal media, the Democratic party ,and so called progressives,both left and right. perceive us as mindless sheep who are easily led.<br />
<br />
Nothing is further from the truth! It is indeed time to stand up and demand that our elected representatives in Washington do what we say not the other way around!!<br />
I urge all who read this to visit <a href="http://cainconnections.com/home">http://cainconnections.com/home</a> today and become a part of the Cain Train and participate in this new American Revolution where We The People will stand up to the new dictator in Washington and demand our power back!!<br />
<br />
<br />
P.S. It is patently obvious by now that the Liberal media smear campaign involving the phony bimbos that smeared Mr.Cain was nothing more than tawdry muckraking and character assassination! Period!<br />
<br />
Those women claimed it was not political. B--lsh-t. Where is Madame Gloria Allred and her pack of flusies now? Herman is a man of character and integrity who was lynched by the liberal media. I say Herman get back in the race! You can still win this thing!

</tbody></table>
That is how I feel bowed under the burden of concern I have for our nation. The recent events with OWS-as well as-the shannigans of Berry and the Dems in Congress show that this country is on a headlong "progressive" course to European style socialism!<br />
<br />
These are perilous times. Our economy remains in shambles,Europe is on the brink of economic collapse,and China is rising, and,yet Berry and his minions dawdle and do nothing but propose more of the socialist nonsense that got us here.<br />
<br />
We -the conservative movement-need a candidate with the principles and philosophy of Ronald Reagan. And yet -since Cain was forced out -I see no one,absolutely no one,who fits the Bill.<br />
<br />
Mitt Romney supported socialized,mandated, insurance as Governor. His tax program does not contain any real reform, he seems to be just telling people what he thinks they want to hear,and, in my opinion ,he comes off a little phony. In short he is a prepackaged box of marketed soap!<br />
<br />
Ron Paul? one word Crazy!<br />
<br />
Rick Santorum: Hah! He doesn't appear to stand a chance at this time.<br />
<br />
Bachman: Really solid conservative-as well as Tea Party candidate-but not ready for Prime time.<br />
<br />
As for Gingrich. He is nothing more than a Conservative Progressive and he will always favor big government over smaller limited government period.<br />
<br />
The rest don't even deserve mention. So where do we go from here? Prayer. It seems that is the only solution left. Pray that God will raise up a person who will stand up for individual freedom, reform taxes,stand for a strong United States,and seek to limit the power and scope of government.<br />
<br />
P.S. A short word about Herman Cain. I sincerely wish he would reignite his campaign. I was appalled at the savagery of the coordinated liberal attack against Cain. These women that were trotted out were nothing more than a political assassination team.<br />
<br />
Their disingenous claims that they were not politically motivated is hogwash!<br />

<br />
<br />
"Hope and change ain't working"! "We don't need to rewrite the Constitution"! "We need to reread the Constitution"!<br />
<br />
So says 2012 Presidential hopeful Herman Cain. Cain is a true American. A man cut in the mold of Ronald Reagan! Like Reagan, Herman comes from humble circumstances. Ronald Reagan came from a struggling poor white family in the great depression. Cain came from a struggling poor black family in the same time period.<br />
<br />
Both men, convinced that in America you can achieve anything, grabbed the bull by the horns, and took control of their own destiny! They didn't see their poverty as a hindrance, but rather a strength that propelled them forward to success.<br />
<br />
Both men had a strong and abiding faith in the truth of America; that anyone can achieve what they dream if they are willing to work, persevere, and believe!<br />
<br />
Go Herman Cain!!

What a wonderful late August day I enjoyed today! Humidity low,temp in the 80's,clear blue bowl sky,very much like that fateful day,Sept.11,2001, when our world changed,and,life would never be the same.<br />
<br />
This afternoon I finally came inside and logged online and found some really good articles about 9/11. What struck me most-as well as angered me-is how much progress has been made -not only at Ground Zero- but in the War on Terror as well-and the M.S.M. isn't saying a damned thing about it!<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Consider for example this link <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/photos/9-11-memorial-site-at-ground-zero-1309390482-slideshow/regeneration-ground-zero-lower-manhattan-20110804-084958-808.html;_ylt=AljnHry4lZkZH9zLiBQu1JzSc.J_;_ylu=X3oDMTNyamt2OTNiBHBrZwM2NmQ4MDY3My02ZTIxLTM4MTQtYjI0My1jZjA5Y2MxNWJhNTEEcG9zAzYzBHNlYwNNZWRpYUNhcm91c2VsUGhvdG9HYWxsZXJ5Q0FYSFIEdmVyAzY5MWFkNTkwLWJlYjEtMTFlMC1hZGJkLWUwMDg2YjE3MjZmNA--;_ylv=3">9/11 Memorial Site at Ground Zero</a>. I was astounded by how much progress has been made in rebuilding the W.T.C. complex and memorial-and yet-I haven't seen anything on N.B.C,C.B.S,or A.B.C, about it! Why? Why haven't theses networks-that claim to be "news organizations" been having regular updates on the progress at "Ground Zero"?</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
As I pondered this-with tears in my eyes- I actually became angry. It seems to me that many of these "so-called" journalists want you and me to forget what happened on that horrific day back in 2001. They want us to forget that we were attacked by a band of Islamic Fascists who would see us all dead,they want us to forget about the strong and determined leadership of our -then President-George W.Bush, and they want us to be kept in the dark about the progress we have made -not only in rebuilding the W.T.C-but also in the "War on Terror"!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Take a moment to think about this,since 9/11 we have deposed Saddam Hussein, we liberated Iraq and have given them a chance to forge their own Democracy, we have stomped Al-Qaeda into the ground across the globe,and most of all cut the head off the Al-Qaeda snake,by killing Osama Ben Laden may he rot in hell!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
At the site of the World trade center we have made substantial progress in rebuilding-as well as memorializing-that tragic event. We have seen the Arab world respond the George W. Bush's call to seek Democracy, in Egypt, Syria,Libya and other places. This is a repudiation of the Al-Qaeda doctrine that freedom and democracy are incompatible with Islam! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
While Bush was President we were asked time and time again what victory in the war on terrorism would look like. I say it looks a lot like what we are witnessing today! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We have driven Al-Qaeda to their knees, we have witnessed the Arab spring,and we are showing the dogs who attacked us on Sept.11,2001,that we will rebuild,we will fight,and we will prevail.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Well that's all for today,but, I will be blogging about this more in the days ahead. Until then God bless you and yours and may God bless America.</div>

<br />
Well, I say, Washington needs to up its game!! We the people have the drive, the foresight,and innovation to get the job done.<br />
<br />
What we need is for clowns like Obama, Reid,and Pelosi to get out of the way and let the creative genius and force of the American people have it's way.<br />
<br />
We need Washington to quit thinking they can control the economy with taxes,=regulations,and, sigh,Obama care, and get out of the way and let America work like this nation was intended to work.<br />
<br />
What we need is for Washington to up it's game and allow our oil companies to drill in Anwar,in the Gulf,and off both coasts. We need these clowns to cut spending and corporate-as well as-individual taxes!<br />
<br />
In short it is time for our Government to go back to providing a stable and safe place for people to work and business to flourish rather than try to micro manage every aspect of our national life!<br />
<br />

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Beware the coming zombi Apocalypse!</td></tr>
</tbody></table>Put this done under truth being stranger than fiction. In what can only be termed a bizarre-yet creatively funny-post at the CDC's blog "<a href="http://blogs.cdc.gov/publichealthmatters/">Public Health Matters</a>" assistant Surgeon General Ali S Khan explores the possibility of a coming "<a href="http://emergency.cdc.gov/socialmedia/zombies_blog.asp">Zombie Apocalypse</a>" and gives guidelines for surviving a zombie disaster.<br />
Much of it is just plain old fashioned common sense ideas for any disaster it does however contain a breif but informative "History of Zombies,a preparedness plan,as well as,a link to your very own survival kit from the CDC.<br />
<br />
Quite often we criticize bureaucrats for their lack of imagination but I have to say I find this a funny breath of fresh air from one of those bureaucrats we love to make fun of!<br />
One thing I did notice in all the great advice for surviving a zombie attack was the lack of any advice about weaponry. I guess that's in keeping with the liberal orthodoxy about guns and such that we are all to well acquainted with.<br />
However there is a link in the article to a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page">Wikipedia </a>entry called "<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Zombie_Survival_Guide">The Zombie Survival Guide</a>" that does advise using M1 carbines and other weapons for self defense against the blood drinking brain eating monsters<br />
<br />
Well I never thought I would blog about zombies,but,this one was too good to pass up. Follow the links and enjoy a fun and frivolous adventure into the madcap world of zombies and our all to often boring federal bureaucracy.

<br />
Why do I say this? Why do I make such an outlandish claim? Because of <a href="http://www.nwitimes.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/article_ec169697-a19e-525f-a532-81b3df229697.html">this outrage</a> that I have learned about in Indiana. An outrage against your Constitutional rights-and-the Constitution itself.<br />
<br />
Where did I learn of this? From a link posted by a <a href="http://www.6foot2inhighheelshoes.com/">friend on Facebook</a> to <a href="http://hotair.com/">HotAir.com</a><br />
<br />
It seems that the Indiana Supreme court has decided that....<br />
<br />
<blockquote><b><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; line-height: 18px;">"I</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; line-height: 18px;">n a 3-2 decision, Justice Steven David writing for the court said if a police officer wants to enter a home</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; line-height: 18px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; line-height: 18px;"><span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">for any reason or no reason at all</span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; line-height: 18px;">, a homeowner cannot do anything to block the officer’s entry."</span></i></b></blockquote><br />
What? an officer can enter my home for "any reason or no reason at all"?!! This is an outrage!! As far as blocking the officers entry that is a mute point. This court has decided that the cops can enter your home for any or no reason WITHOUT a WARRANT. Hell if your not home to block their entry-which this court has decided you can't do anyway-the way I read it they still would have the right to ENTER your home!!!<br />
<br />
This is EXACTLY the kind of bulls%$t by government that prompted the framers of the Constitution to put in the fourth amendment to that great document which says ....<br />
<br />
<blockquote><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; line-height: 18px;">“</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; line-height: 18px;"><em style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized</em></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; line-height: 18px;">.”</span></span></blockquote>Did you notice the part about "unreasonable" searches?? The framers intended that law enforcement have a "reason" to enter your home,and,that they obtain the permission of a judge to do it!!<br />
<br />
It does NOT say that the police can "enter your home for any reason or no reason at all"<br />
<br />
You can read more about this at the link to <a href="http://hotair.com/archives/2011/05/14/indiana-supreme-court-rules-hoosiers-have-no-right-to-resist-unlawful-entry-of-their-homes-by-police/">HotAir</a> and <a href="http://www.nwitimes.com/news/local/govt-and-politics/article_ec169697-a19e-525f-a532-81b3df229697.html">the article</a> they linked to bring this outrage to light.<br />
Folks it is incumbent upon all of us to get informed about this anti-constitutional bull and speak out as loudly as we can against it after all the only thing necessary for evil-and this is evil-to triumph is for good men-and women-to do nothing.<br />
<br />
If you blog I encourage you to blog about this-let your voice be heard-don't let this go without challenge!!<br />

Usama bin Laden dead!! I almost did a jig when I heard the news this morning. One of the first thought s that came to mind was that this is reason for jubilation and celebration,and,soon enough I saw the footage of Americans celebrating this great victory in the war against Al Qaeda.<br />
<br />
The second thing that came to mind was the song from the wizard of Oz about "the wicked old witch is dead" except I was thinking it ha ha the bastards' dead the wicked old bastards'.<br />
<br />
Finally- at long last- George Bush's promise that bin laden would be brought to justice has been brought to fruition.Yes Obama was at the helm,and gave the final order to kill bin laden,but,make no mistake this would not have happened without the commitment,determination,and dogged persistence of all our military,and, intelligence assets that were ordered into action by then President George W.Bush.<br />
<br />
Bush was relentless in his pursuit of Al-Qaeda all over the world-and ironically-was opposed in his desire to take the fight to Al-Qaeda by the one who has sought to take credit for getting bin laden-Barack Obama.<br />
<br />
I do give credit to Barack Obama for at least coming to his senses and realizing that this diseased maniac needed to be taken out. I applaud the fact that he gave the order to go for it,and, I especially applaud our brave Navy Seals for pulling this operation off with no American casualties despite one helicopter malfunctioning and having to be blown up. Job very well done to all involved!<br />
<br />
Now to world reaction. I was intrigued to see what <a href="http://www.aljazeera.com/your_views/americas/2011/05/201152122427274638.html">AlJazeerra</a> had to say here is a sampling...<br />

</tbody></table>This momentous achievement marks a victory for America, for people who seek peace around the world, and for all those who lost loved ones on September 11, 2001.<br />
The fight against terror goes on, but tonight America has sent an unmistakable message: No matter how long it takes, justice will be done.</blockquote><br />
