It is the Soldier

It is the Soldier, not the minister
Who has given us freedom of religion.

It is the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the press.

It is the Soldier, not the poet
Who has given us freedom of speech.

It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer
Who has given us freedom to protest.

It is the Soldier, not the lawyer
Who has given us the right to a fair trial.

It is the Soldier, not the politician
Who has given us the right to vote.

It is the Soldier who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,
Who allows the protester to burn the flag.

Obama has betrayed Israel and the United States

If the Jews put down their weapons of defense the state of Israel would be destroyed the next day. If instead the Arab states put down their weapons there would be peace the next day. Simply put: Muslims won't stop until the Jews are all dead. Israel just wants to be left in peace. There has never been an autonomous Arab state in the land of Palestine yet this is the 3rd time at least that the Jews have so they more right to the land there than Arabs.

Below is a 5 minute video that explains it perfectly:

After the Muslims Extremists destroy Israel they will not rest until our western way of life is destroyed and a caliphate is installed all over the world. This is their STATED goal. The implications of what Obama did today are catastrophic except that they might bring about the Second Coming sooner than I thought. : )

Fascinating Little Article about Religion and Faith coming instinctively to human beings

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/is-belief-in-god-ingrained-in-our-human-nature-a-new-study-says-so/

An exciting, new Oxford University study has found that faith and religion come to human beings naturally — possibly instinctively. The initiative, entitled the “Cognition, Religion and Theology Project,” took three years to complete and involved more than 40 different studies in 20 countries around the globe. According to CNN, the study has some intriguing findings:

Studies around the world came up with similar findings, including widespread belief in some kind of afterlife and an instinctive tendency to suggest that natural phenomena happen for a purpose.

While the results don’t speak to whether or not God (or gods) exists, Roger Trigg, the project’s co-director, believes that the findings are immensely important to religious freedom and human rights. When considering the idea that some governments restrict religious activities, Trigg said:

“If you’ve got something so deep-rooted in human nature, thwarting it is in some sense not enabling humans to fulfill their basic interests. There is quite a drive to think that religion is private. It isn’t just a quirky interest of a few, it’s basic human nature. This shows that it’s much more universal, prevalent, and deep-rooted. It’s got to be reckoned with. You can‘t just pretend it isn’t there.”

Hopeful thoughts from a "racist Tea Partier"

This is the most hopeful amazing interview I've heard yet that we might really be able to save our country from the damage BO has inflicted on our nation and be able to best him in 2012 with a candidate who actually likes the U.S. I LOVE this interview with the head of the Black Chamber of Commerce on the Laura Ingraham Show who said that voting for Obama is a mistake he will take to his grave. Here's why:

This is my guy for 2012 (and yes, he's a black man) :

As Martin Luther King said, we should judge people on the content of their character not the color of their skin.

It's the Liberal/Progressive/Democrats who can't leave race alone because it's their only strategy against the arguments of the Right. I'm sick to death of being called a racist because I'm a member of the Tea Party.

Obama Slaps Jews in the Face....on Passover!

From Unity Coalition for Israel Website:

"Passover recalls the bondage and suffering of Jews in Egypt and the miracle of the Exodus, but U.S. President Barack Obama says its message is reflected in Muslim uprisings.

From Obama:

" ' In his annual message, prior to his third straight participation in the Passover Seder, President Obama stated, “The story of Passover…instructs each generation to remember its past, while appreciating the beauty of freedom and the responsibility it entails. This year that ancient instruction is reflected in the daily headlines as we see modern stories of social transformation and liberation unfolding in the Middle East and North Africa.' ”

http://www.israelunitycoalition.org/news/?p=6622

This is beyond insensitive. Obama and his cronies continue to snub and fight against Israel. His buddy Bill Ayers and his wife, Bernardine Dohrn will be heavily involved in another Gaza flotilla designed to stir up trouble in the Middle East by provoking the Israelis in the next month or 2.

Zechariah 12:9 And it shall come to pass in that day [The Last Days] , that I will seek to^adestroy all the nations that come against ^bJerusalem.

1 Nephi 22:14 And every ^anation which shall war against thee, O house of Israel, shall be turned one against another, and they shall ^bfall into the pit which they digged to ensnare the people of the Lord. And all that ^cfight against Zion shall be destroyed.

Dem fave Planned Parenthood-an abortion every 95 seconds

Planned Parenthood performed 332,278 abortions in the United States in 2009, according to a fact sheet the group published last month.

That is about as many as the 333,012 people who lived in the city of Cincinnati, Ohio, in 2009, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

The 332,278 abortions Planned Parenthood performed over the 365 days of 2009 equals an average of 910 lives terminated per day–or about 38 per hour, or one every 95 seconds.

Liberal-embraced Socialists choose violence

Violence, coercion, and intimidation are of Satan. That's why I don't like bully unions, socialists, communists, etc. I don't know why the Left does. Oh, wait. I think I do know why. They are blinded by the craftiness of men in the Last Days.

It chaps my hide that Obama gives Brazil 2 billion dollars to develop their oil and permission to drill in the OUR gulf so that we can be their "best customer" but blocks access to our oil reserves here in the US. This is how he lives his dream of redistributing the wealth to other nations and sticks it to the U.S. I wish we had a president who loved America more and everyone else just a little less.

Obama has sold the U.S. down the river!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Watch this one minute clip of how ticked off the Saudis are at the Obama administration. They are now turning to Russia and China for stability!!!!!!!!!! This could have dire consequences for us. I'm reading a book on the Signs of the Times (by church members named Parry) and it's like having a commentary on the days' news stories. Be prepared for $20 gas if the Saudis say bye bye to us.

Obama Wins!

Yes, Obama is awarded the Transparency Award at a no-press-allowed ceremony. It wasn't even listed on the presidents schedule because they wanted to keep it a secret. So which is more insane: Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize or Obama receives Transparency Award?? I'd say it's a tie.

Obama's relationship with economic terrorist, Steven Lerner

Obama = SEIU (union). Socialist, Steven Lerner = economic terrorism. Steven Lerner is an employee of SEIU. (Confirmed recently that he is still employed there.) This is a simple math equation that most of America hasn't added up yet.

Smart Meters are a Really DUMB Idea

Smart Meters are a really dumb idea for the reasons below. For the full article see link. More Green Big Brother invasions of our privacy and limitations of our freedoms.

"European studies have shown no significant energy savings.

Great potential exists for serious and wide-spread health problems caused by constant bombardment of EMFs.

Loss of personal freedom to consume energy as you see fit is inherent in this kind of metering.

Government now has access to even more information about how you live, with the potential to interfere in your life via control of power.

And, if you choose NOT to have a Smart Meter, you will pay a ‘tax’ for the right to retain your privacy and freedom of choice."

Those Silly Socialists

Did you hear about the AMERICAN Dream (think unions) rallies this weekend all over the country? In D.C. where communist and former Obama Green Jobs Czar, Van Jones, was leading one guess who filed the park permit with the National Parks Service? Yes! The International Socialists Organization. So American.

http://internationalsocialist.org/You should check out their website.

They are basically against capitalism and pro the traditions of revolutionary socialists Karl Marx, Leon Trotsky, and Lenin. Hmmmm, I wonder which interested Being inspired all these guys?? Well, I'm not really wondering.

Some Hawaii Pictures

You know you're in Hawaii when this is the scene at the Budget Rental place. These fowl are everywhere, especially on the island of Kauai. In 1992 Hurricane Iniki set a bunch of them "free" and they have been thriving on their own every since, I think because they have learned how to not get run over.
Valley on Kauai where taro is growing in the "water" fields
Darling LDS chapel where we went to church. Probably built in the 60's or earlier.
Old lighthouse on Kauai
Is this Hawaii? Yes. Dad looking over the "Grand Canyon of Hawaii" on Kauai. I try to sneak a picture of Dad when he doesn't suspect or he won't let me ever get one.
Me not far from our condo on the northern part of Kauai. Sun setting in background.
A poor shot of the inside of our condo but I wanted to show how we could see the ocean from 2 sides of the living room.!
View as part of the Botanical Gardens on the big island. More on the gardens in another post.
Uh-oh. Dad's at his favorite drive-in in all the world. Scott and Kyle will remember Blanes! Can you say spam?

Uninspired Progressive Ideas

These mind-blowing facts were on the radio today: 1/3 of black males born today will end up in prison. 75% of all black children are born out of wedlock. This very tragic state of affairs finds it's genesis in the progressive programs of the most despicable of human beings, President Lyndon Johnson. The result was Black women having children without benefit of marriage.

For government handouts blacks abandoned the party founded by Abe Lincoln, the Republican party, in droves just as LBJ predicted. His foul quote about buying their votes is unprintable here. Blacks continue to support progressive programs that make people slaves to the government and destroy generations of what were supposed to have been intact families. I just don't get it. LBJ was one of the most amoral and disgusting individuals I've ever read about. The ideas he thought up are proof to me that liberal/progressive programs do not come from enlightened inspired minds. Even the most generous biographies contain enough stories about him to convince anyone that he did not have an ounce of the Light of Christ left in him. So naturally he would come up with ideas that destroy families. That is what the progressive movement is all about among other things.

This is a perfect and chilling example of what's wrong with liberal progressivism

Students in England are rioting and threatening the lives of Royals because the government is raising tuition rates. When a people are used to having everything paid for by the government and then the government realizes it can't sustain these programs financially and tries to cut back (or raise tuition) people riot. Once you give someone a handout they won't let you stop without a fight It doesn't matter that the money ran out and this or that just can't continue. People will still riot. These are not thinking people, just feeling people.

Camilla and Charles made a wrong turn in their armored Rolls Royce and found themselves in the middle of a mass of rioting students who then started to beat on their car while shouting "Off with their heads!" and succeeded in cracking a window which I understand is really hard to do.
