On no...another controversy

President Elect Barak Obama has asked Pastor Rick Warren to give the invocation at the inauguration. Of course for those on the modern, hip and contemporary left this was certainly a huge no-no. Why, after all, Pastor Rick Warren is anti gay, anti modern and is a polarizing evagelical christian who hates everybody. God forbid he should be given a public platform for hate mongering and offensive rhetoric. A 60 second platform to pray? No Way!

Isn't it something how Rep. Barney Frank and others have completley flipped over this? The media has had a field day reporting how offended the gay community is and Rep Barney Frank himself has stated that many in Congress and the Senate do not agree with Pastor Warren and his ideology.

Amazing. Regardless of Barak Obama's motivation for selecting Pastor Warren it never ceases to amaze me how ridiculous and doubled tongued the left really are. When word started getting around about Barak Obama's Pastor Jeremiah Wright the media covered it but the liberal left were silent. That's right. Where was Rep Barney Frank? Where was Nancy Pelosi and other left minded libs? Nowhere to be found.

Hate speech? Racism? Anti-American speech? Twisted truths? Lies made over to be truth? Pastor Warren? No. Rev. Jermiah Wright? Yes. I will not take the time to rehash the Rev. Jeremiah Wright's garbage other than to say you can find it for yourself. This is all further proof that it really is simple.

The liberal left has no common sense, they hate what is right, they hate Christianity and they hate what this country was founded on: morals and principles. It is about common sense.

Doing a duty

One of the key differences between liberals and conservatives has to do with how each views the military. The last thing I would want to do is politicize the death of a soldier. In no uncertain terms do I want to "use" the death of a soldier or exploit the death of a soldier. I have the highest respect for our military.

I have a cousin in the Marines right now, I could not be prouder of him and he has served a tour in Iraq. I have other friends and family who are serving or have served in the military. I believe in the United States Navy, Marines, Air Force and Army.

On April 22, 2008 Lance Cpl. Jordan Haeter, 19, and Cpl. Jonathan Yale, 21 had just started their shift manning the front entrance to the military compound in Ramadi, Anbar Province in Iraq. The sun had just started to rise when a 20-foot-long truck headed toward their gate, weaving between the concrete barriers. The two sentries tried to waive off the truck. Two Iraqi Police Officers assigned with them turned and ran, other Iraqi Police on the adjacent street ran as well.

Video footage would later reveal what happened this morning of April 22, 2008. Both soldiers opened fire, the truck slowed but kept coming. Within a few dozen feet of the main gate the truck exploded. Military investigators would later conclude the truck was loaded with 2,000 pounds of explosives. The driver was determined to commit suicide and murder several American soldiers and Iraqis who were staying in the compound.

Neither serviceman attempted to run, both soldiers held their ground and never stopped firing their weapons as the truck raced towards them. Major General John Kelly said this, "No time to talk it over, no time to call the lieutenant; no time to think about their own lives or even the American and Iraqi lives they were protecting. More than enough time, however, to do their duty. They never hesitated or tried to escape." The entire incident lasted only 6 seconds.

These two fine and yes, young men, lost their lives. Some will argue "they never should have been there" or "they died for no reason" or "they died for a lie" or "they were too young to die".
Some may argue what they wish about why our American soldiers are in Iraq. Fine. Keep this in mind: they died saving the lives of their fellow American soldiers. They did their duty.

Our American Military men and women are trained to do one thing - put their lives on the line for their fellow Americans. Let us never forget the price that was paid to establish this great country, politics aside. Let us never forget that it is our military that goes before us, regardless of politics to keep America safe and secure.

I pray for the families of Lance Cpl. Jordan Haerter and Cpl. Jonathan Yale. I pray that God will do only what he can do for these families and bring them peace.

There is but one price for freedom and it is paid for in blood. John 3:16

Real Tax Breaks?

President Elect Obama has promised tax cuts for 95% of Americans. Wonderful promise. Like a good accountant he wants to decrease taxes for average America but wants to actually increase government spending. Sounds like a good plan. It is also no secret that he wants to tax big corporations and certainly tax oil companies.

It seems to me, and please for any liberal out there, correct me if I am wrong but...

If Obama indeed taxes big companies and big oil companies, where do you think they will pass on their expenses? Let's see, Obama cuts taxes for us, creates greater taxes for industry all across America, creates greater government spending and where will that leave average Americans?

We will still carry the brunt of excessive government spending, maybe indirectly but rest assured if industry and corporate America see increases in their taxes it will get passed on to the consumer. Wonderful.

Folks, this isn't nuclear science it is simple economics. It doesn not take a degree to figure this out. Greater government spending means one thing = higher taxes period.

Lobbyists or Hollywood Libs?

On Tuesday September 16th Barak Obama attended a Hollywood Dinner Fundraising event in his honor. It was a $25,000 a plate event with Barbara Striesand in concert for an additional $2,500. Many of Hollywood's liberal left favorites were there, Steven Spielberg, Eddie Murphy, George Clooney, Jennifer Anniston. Barak has also received campaign contributions from Paramount Pictures studio chief Brad Grey and Richard Cook who is chairman of Walt Disney Studios and Ron Meyer of Universal Studios.

The Hollywood liberals love their social candidate Barak Obama. You see, Barak has been airing an add basically stating that several of John McCain's top advisor's are lobbyists. Yet who is Barak listening to? Money talks, that's for sure and when Hollywood's best libs come out and endorse Barak who is he going to listen to?

It is about common sense.

The Hollywood libs have no problem slamming christianity or the church, they have no problem allowing fiith on prime time tv and force feeding their political or otherwise ideology down our throats through the media and through their social candidate. But they sure do not want to hear it from the other side.

Actor Matt Damon siad the following in regards to Gov. Sarah Palin, "I need to know if she really thinks dinosaurs were here 4,000 years ago...becasue she is going to have the nuclear codes."
Is he serious? Do you know what he is really saying? What he is really saying is if she believes in a young earth or creationism she is a nut case. See, morals and values have everything to do with politics.

The libs simply do not want any conservative morals or values in the White House. HOwever, they do want thier brand of morals and values in the White House. Just who is Barak OBama going to listen to?

It's about common sense.

143 Days

A perspective on experience...

You could not get a job at McDonald and become district manager after 143 days of experience.

You could not become Chief of Surgery after 143 days of experience of being a surgeon.

You couldn't join the military and become a 4 star general after 143 days of experience.

You couldn't become Chief of Police after being a beat cop after 143 days of experience.

143 days of experience is not even 6 months...yet...

Barack Obama formed a Presidential exploratory committee after serving in the Senate after 143 days of experience.

Barack H. Obama feels that he is ready to take his place in history behind the likes of JFK, Abraham Lincoln and Ronald Reagan. What could possibly cause Americans to think that he is ready to lead the greatest country on earth?

Experience? He has none. His only political office was as a Senator. For three quarters of that time he has spent it pursuing the Office of President.

This is about common sense. The liberal left has none. Commons sense dictates the Barack Obama has no experience to run this country. What part of this does America not get. Barack may be a good speaker, and excellent one when he has a teleprompter, he may have a great personality. He may even have some good ideas, although I have yet to see any.

Barak Obama has absolutely no experience to be Commander in Chief. Responsible for the economy, our military, our nuclear arsenal and the list could go on. Does it make sense to elect him as President?

Absolutely not. It's about commons sense. Gov. Sarah Palin? Not only has she held office but has acutally worked in those elected offices doing her job.

Gov. Sarah Palin

Proof that the liberal media doesn't like Gov. Palin. ABC's Charles Gibson obviously has a problem with her. When he tried to pin her down about if it is right for us to cross into Pakistan or not she repeatedlly answered his question. His tone changed, he got nasty and asked for a yes or a no. Instead of a yes or a no, she, in complete sentences answered his question.

He was upset because she was unscripted and prepared for him and he could not pin her down.
The fact of the matter is Charles Gibson could not pin her down and trap her. It boggles the mind how the liberals think and work.

Here she is: in self control, charting her own destiny in politics, independent and strong willed. Just what liberal women want, right? Yet they can't stand her. Why? Because she is principled? She has morals?

This is an example how liberals work...double minded. More to come...
