Add these up one by one and you get a phenomenal score that points to the fact that

Barrack Hussein Obama is determined to turn America into a Marxist-Socialist society.

All of the items in the preceding paragraphs have been put into place. All can be documented very easily. Before you disavow this do an internet search. The last paragraph alone is not yet cast in stone. You and I will write that paragraph. Will it read as above or will it be a more happy ending for most of America?

If you are an Obama Supporter don’t be angry with me because I think Barrack Hussein Obama is a socialist. Far too many facts support he is indeed a Socialist.

If you seek the truth you will be richer for it.

Don’t just belittle the opposition. Search for the truth. Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Constitutionalists, Libertarians all need to pull together or watch the demise of a free democratic society.

Pray for Americans to seek the truth and take action for it will keep us FREE. Our biggest enemy is not China , Russia , North Korea, and Iran our biggest enemy is a contingent of politicians in Washington DC. The government will not help, so we need to do it ourselves.

Question….will you delete this, or pass it on to others who don’t know about Obama’s actions and plans for the USA, so that they may know how to vote in November, 2012 and the ensuing years?

It’s your decision.  I believe it does matter.  How about you?

Say “I Opt Out” of Naked-Body Scanners on National Opt Out Day, November 24

http://wewontfly.com/opt-out-day/

If you have to fly on November 24, opt out of the virtual strip search body scanners for your own health and privacy. Say “I opt out!” Tell your friends, family and community so they know how to protect themselves, too. Be prepared for delays and intimate TSA groping.  At least you will avoid the risk of cornea damage and skin, breast and testicular cancer and the humiliation of a virtual strip search…

How to Opt Out

Say “I opt out”. When/if TSA agents direct you to a full body x-ray scanner, tell them: “I opt out.” Be prepared for screaming, intimidation and groping. Don’t let the TSA agents move you into a back room! Keep an eye on your property and stand your ground. Let every individual see how the TSA is treating peaceful travelers.

“If you or your loved ones are submitted to humiliating, rude, or indecent actions in line, please speak up to defend them. If you are suddenly confronted with an unacceptable grope, please call out loudly enough for others in line to know what just happened. Do not take this silently. I was hurt (and appalled later) that no one spoke up for me; the silence was deafening.” – Anonymous

Liberty vs Safety

The absurdy of we have to sacrifice a little – that we just have to deal.

Take it to the next level -what if the government wanted to keep children safe – find out about crime.

Put cameras in homes- what will it take, when will we listen to Franklin’s wisdom.

“Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

 -Franklin first said this in the Pennsylvania Assembly’s November 11, 1755 reply to the Governor, and it appears in The Papers of Benjamin Franklin v. 6, p. 242 (ed. Labaree).

TN fire department decision: controversial

Bryan Fischer Firefighters Controversy

http://action.afa.net/Blogs/BlogPost.aspx?id=2147499026

I agree with the ideas that legally and morally as a legal entity the city fire dept. was bound by liablity insurance and contractual legalities and such. 

I would not agree with the idea that they were “christian”. The word “christian” should not even be a description here.

This is a link to the Websters defintions of christian http://1828.mshaffer.com/d/search/word,christian
No organization can act christian, they can act within or without the law.  They can follow a moral code.  But they are not christian.  As a legal entity it cannot be saved or born again.  They may be a religious organization under the law, but this was a city fire department not a religious organization. 

If the individuals living on that street wanted to exhibit christian principals of living/doctrines they could have stepped up and helped their neigbor.  But the firemen were part of a legal entity – not this man’s neighbors.  Now I detest all of this legal nest we live in America today.  But that is the result of the sin in the world.

So many times organizations are tied up by legal, insurance, & governmental rules/regs/laws. The ones at fault here – morally and legally is the homeowner.  And morally at fault, any neighbor that did not step up.

Conservatives Have Grace

Grace: Defined on the freedictionary.com a. A disposition to be generous or helpful; goodwill. b. Mercy; clemency. I was reading this interesting article – even though I am not Methodist.  And I was curious about a statement that was made.

http://revdsky.blogspot.com/2009/09/dividing-by-zero.html

Conservatives often (not always) seem to be lacking in grace. Liberals often (not always) seem to be lacking in accountability.

It is possible that the use of the words conservative and liberal were referring specifically to the philosophy’s of the church.  Perhaps it was about conservative Methodist thought vs  liberal Methodist thought.  I couldn’t comment on that because I know nothing of the specific politics within the Methodist Church.  However, if it was a general statement, about general politics,  at least for the many conservatives I know, online and in person, they have grace.  They have what I would term individual grace. 

They do not feel it is the state’s (government, both fed and states) responsibility, using taxpayer monies, to give grace.  They feel its their own personal responsibility to help their neighbor.  But as individuals and groups that give grace we do expect to find ultimate responsibility – we give our resources to help solve the problem behind the symtoms.  We, as conservatives, do not agree with state grace.  So to say conservatives lack grace, is not true.  Even if its prefaced with not always.  Because the current social climate seems to believe in state grace.
