The Definition of Lunacy

Our President, Barack Obama, in my opinion, has become a raving, manical lunatic. I'm not the only one that calls him this, but I thought it might be helpful if I defined what, in my opinion, defines lunacy so that people will understand why I say what I say. So, here goes:
1.Lunacy is believing that, no how many times in the past the Federal Government has failed at trying to do something better than the private sector, just because the new President is "the anointed one", that this time it will work.
2. Lunacy is believing that by spending trillions of dollars and increasing the debt by anywhere from $9 Trillion to $11 Trillion dollars in the next ten years, government spending can save an economy from recession without causing runaway inflation.
3. Lunacy is believing that being nice to a religious fanatic like militant Islamic fundamentalists will keep them from killing Americans anytime they can.
4. Lunacy is believing that doing away with America's nuclear arms superiority will somehow protect the nation from a nuclear holacost, and that the other nuclear nations will actually agree and do as they promise when they say they will eliminate their nuclear arsenals if we do!
5.Lunacy is believing that a bureaucrat in Washington is better equipped to decide what type of health care an individual needs than the individual himself, or the individual's family is.
6. Lunacy is believing that by weakening the U.S. Military we can strengthen our national defense.
7. Lunacy is believing that the average American really believes that the President really believes he can generate enough savings from eliminating waste and abuse in the health care system to offset the additional $9 Trillion dollars in costs over the next ten years.
8. Lunacy is believing that the average America really does not believe that CAP and Trade's impact of increasing the average American's utility bill by $1700 to $3000 per year to pay for the carbon offsets that industry will have to buy under this bill is not really a tax.
9. Lunacy is believing that any American really believes that NOT drilling for additional oil reserves that we know we have is really a smart thing to do.
10. Lunacy is believing that Barack Obama is NOT the most flaming Socialist that American has ever elected to the office of President, and that he is not the most arrogant, dillusional, and corrupt individual in America at this time.
11. Lunacy is believing that political correctness such as demonstrated by the U.S. Post office printing a stamp honoring a Muslim holiday is NOT the most insulting, disingenuous, and blatantly insulting act of insensitivity to freedom loving Americans all over this nation, especially those in New York City who lost loved ones on 9/11.
12. Lunacy is allowing blatant liars and lunatics like Ahmadinejad and Muammar al-Gaddafi to even address the UN, much less ever trying to negotiate anything with them as long as they maintain their lunacy and militant ways.
13. Lunacy is ever believing that Iran's nuclear ambitions are ONLY designed for peaceful purposes.
14. Lunacy seems to me to be believing that Iran, Syria, Lybia, or any country that tolerates, houses, encourages, or even acknowledges that terrorism like that of the Islamic militants is anything but Satanic in nature, would ever agree to co-exist with Israel.
15. Lunacy is ever expecting Israel to stand by and allow Iran to gain nuclear weapons without doing anything required to stop it (I know I would stop it at all costs!)

Need I go on? I did not vote for him, but I tried to give him the benefit of the doubt. But too many things have proven to me this man is a Lunatic and a cold, calculating, power-crazy politician. For example:
* His speech at the UN today where he attacked American, apologized for American, and sucked up to tyrants like Ahmadinejad and Muammar al-Gaddafi
* His blatant attack on free speech by allowing his Secretary of Health & Human Services to issue a cease and desist order against an insurance company (Humana) speaking out against his health care plan
* His demeaning attacks against those millions that have participated in the TEA parties and the Washington TEA Party gathering on 9/12

All these blatantly Anti-American acts have proven to me that this man could care less about the will of the people, and that he considers anyone that does not think like he does un-American, ignorant, and a bigot. Barack Obama will do more harm in the next four years than all Presidents combined in the last two hundred thirty years have done. And what is sad to me...there are about sixty million Americans that have been duped into believing that lying S.O.B. Bill Engval has it right; you just cannot fix stupid!

Nazis in the '30s; right wing extremeists today? I think NOT!

In World War II, the German Nazis took babies of Jewish families and swung them by their heels into brick walls to kill them. The German government under Hitler used their propaganda machine to lable the Jewish people "less than human". They segregated them into gettos and death camps and murdered them by the millions. The German people were convinced of the correctness of their beliefs by a massive attack and propaganda effort by that satanic cult called the Nazi party. They clung to the Nazis because they, by force, pulled Germany from the economic collapse caused by their defeat in World War I to a position of strength and economic power by the beginning of World War II. They, too, lost understanding of eternal truths and history and accepted tyrrany because they saw a significant improvement in their economic well being.

A story appeared in national newspapers yesterday spoke of the U.S. Government's Office of Homeland Security publishing a report that, according to The Associated and OneNews Now, "...links people with pro-life, anti-illegal immigration views, teachers of end-time prophecies, and veterans of war with "right-wing extremist" groups." It goes on to say that "...The report says right-wing extremism in the United states can be broadly divided into those groups, movements, and adherents that are primarily "hate-oriented" and those that are mainly anti-government, rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority or rejecting government authority entirely."

What is the state of our nation when, because a group of people disagree with the Federal Government's anti-Christian propaganda, disagree with the U.S. Supreme Court's legalizing the killing of unborn children upon demand, that support the Bible's definition of marriage that every civilized society for over five-thousand years has adopted, they are target by the government at "extremists", and a threat to national security?

My question is, why would anyone believe that a government that has done everything possible to destroy the Constitution as it was intended to be interpreted by the founding fathers deserve to be supported and allowed to continue to govern? That government is the scurge of the planet. It deserves to be overthrown; it deserves to be kicked out of governing decent, Christian people who believe in the sanctity of life, who believe in the Bible's definition of marriage, and who believe that this nation was truly founded as a Christian nation, and that it still is and still should be defined as a Christian nation that allows freedom of worship of God, not Satan.

Americans are going to wake up; either voluntarily, or by act of God. They are going to eventually realize that a nation that turns its back on God cannot endure. They are going to realize that there are consequences as a result of ungodly behavior, and those consequences are sometimes very painful, even when the offender(s) realize the error of their ways and seek forgiveness. Forgiveness is freely given to those whose hearts are truly sorry for their wrongdoings and who confess those wrongdoings. But forgiveness does not mean that the offenders no longer must suffer the consequences of their actions.

America is paying now for those wrongdoings, and it is only going to get worse before it gets better. The outcome is inevitable, but the pain can be greatly lessened if we simply abandon our sinful ways and go back to the beliefs that our founding fathers held to as they fought for our independence, then formed this republic and its constitution. THAT is the kind of change we need; not Mr. Obama's definition of change.

I am sad tonight-I fear my country is dying.

I love America. I wore the uniform of our military for twenty years, flew combat in Vietnam, and commanded a transportation company in the Army in Desert Storm. I have seen Europe, Asia, and the middle east, and I know for a fact that I live in the best nation on earth, at least right now I do.

But I am sad tonight, because I believe that America is going through a period of chastening by God for the way our nation has turned its back on Him for the last sixty years. Our government has confined His worship almost into isolation behind the walls of churches, and has banned His name from the public square. We elect a marketing slogan rather than an individual; we vote for whoever promises us the most "freebies", rather than an individual that will protect our liberties and defend our nation against its enemies. We are more concerned with our pocketbooks and 401k accounts than we are with soldiers fighting terrorism overseas to keep it off our shores.

We don't even put up the slightest resistance or show any real shock and disgust when he is mocked and cursed at by the likes of Bill Moyer and Kathy Griffin. Somehow, most American have been deluded into believing that a woman has a right to kill her unborn child and it not be called murder. We have come to believe that homosexuality, which God calls an abomination is OK, and that we should even legitimize it and elevate it to the same status as marriage between a man and a woman.

Paul wrote about this in the first century AD in his letter to the Romans. In the 1st chapter, he writes: "
God's Wrath Against Mankind
18The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.

21For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.

24Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.

26Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

28Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. 32Although they know God's righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.

Sixty years ago, homosexuality was a crime against nature; sodomy was a crime against nature; soldies were dishonorably discharged when caught in the act. Adultry was extremely frowned upon, as was having a child out of wedlock and a man and a woman living together outside of marriage was scandalous.

Now, what was evil is good, and what was good is mocked and scorned and even considered evil by some. Speaking God's word if it condemns homosexuality is a hate crime punishable by prison, and our Constitution is looked upon as a "living" document whose interpretation needs to be updated in accordance with today's changing social traditions.

But this is NOT the way the founding fathers intended the Constitution to be interpreted. This is NOT the way the founding fathers intended Government to treat God; this is NOT the moral standards that our founding fathers new we should adhear to.

America has lost its way. Our government is a cesspool of socialist and marxists that think they were elected to parce out the taxpayer's money to their sponsors that got them elected. They think America is stupid enough to be bought by false promises that take from the rich and give to the lazy and non-productive. They think America can be kept so divided by continuing to create resentment among the different social, ethnic, and religious groups that we will not be able to come back together, unite, and bring America back together under the banner of a Christian nation ever again. And they might just be correct.

I have tried to keep the hope for these last years when I have seen our nation sink so low into depravity, but it is difficult. My only source of strength is God's promise as reflected in the Old Testament in 2 Chronicles 7:14, where God, through is prophet Jeremiah, tells Israel this: " if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land."

I know in our land there is a very large remnant of Christians that are doing just that; repenting of our sins, humbling ourselves before Christ, seeking the face of God, and praying that God will heal our land. Many of us know that our only real hope for America to be saved is that promise of God. And so, we pray, we get on our knees, we confess and repent of our sins, we seek the face of the Father, and we pray for our nation. And we fight; we speak the Word of God and pray that God's heart will be softened, and that he will heal our land.

But we wonder how long God can stand the putrid smell of our nation. We wonder how long God can withhold his hand of judgment against our nation when we continue to reject His word and His laws. We wonder how long God can hold off the chastisement of our nation in order to make us return to Him. We fear that since we did not remember the chastisement of 9/11, we fear what He might allow next, and we mourn for the loved ones and the fellow Americans that must suffer because of our nation's rebellion against God. And we grieve for our children and our children's children that must also suffer because of evil nation we have become. His word says that He will not be mocked. Throughout history, especially in times of prosperity and peace, nations have become arrogant and prideful and have succumbed to the lies of Satan that God was no longer needed; that God was dead; that their citizens, their government, and their businesses did not need God for protection or provision; that they could do it without God. And time and time again, God showed them that He was in control by bringing those nations to ruin or completely out of existance. I fear that America is going down that same path. And I feel powerless to do anything to change it.

And that is what scares me so bad. As POGO, that very wise little cartoon possum said, "We have met the enemy, and he is us!"

God help America. God bless America.

Obama Must Fail in his Socialist Agenda or else!

There is much discussion right now regarding a comment that Rush Limbaugh made about wanting Obama to fail in his attempt to create European style socialism here in America. I agree wholehartedly.

Socialism has been off the radar screen since the mid to late 1980s when the Russia's USSR fell apart and Communism's major threat to the world disintegrated from within.

In the twenty years since the USSR tore itself apart, very quietly the Democratic Party has been moving more and more towards a national policy that seems very reminiscent of that failed effort by the Russians. Now we are hearing it openly advocated under the name of "change" by our President. Creation of a national health care plan where there is no freedom of choice for patients to choose their own doctors or for doctors to decide what treatment is best for their patients. Bureaucrats in Washington will have the final say-so. According to now Vice-President Joe Biden's plan, seniors with life-threatening diseases may be told that they just have to die; that the State will not pay the costs to extend their lives or for any radical or experimental treatments to extend their lives or hopefully cure the disease.

Now they are saying it is our Patriotic Duty to pay higher taxes. That is the biggest crock of B.S. I have ever heard! Why should I be forced to pay higher taxes for a policy that I absolutely detest? Why should I be forced to pay higher taxes so the President can buy the votes of the deadbeats in this nation by sending checks to a bunch of individuals who pay no taxes in the first place? Why should I be forced to pay higher taxes to pay for a health care program that I do not need, nor do I want to participate in? Why should I be forced to pay higher taxes to pay for an $8 billion railroad from Los Angeles to Las Vegas so that Harry Reid's constituants can be the receipients of gambling revenues on the "fast-track", so-to-speak? Why should I be forced to pay higher taxes when my religious beliefs do not allow abortions and I think that act is a criminal offense?

Yes! I want President Obama to fail! I want his tax and spend and grow big government agenda to fail! I want his policies of taxing the rich and giving refunds to deadbeats that pay no taxes and get welfare checks to fail! I want his policy of forcing nationalized healthcare down my throat to fail. I hope he falls on his face politically speaking.

The Declaration of Independence opens with this paragraph:
"When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."
There are some things that are just wrong. What this President is doing to this nation is wrong. What the Democratic leadership is doing to this congress is wrong. It is time for another revolution. Our Congress and our political system is broken beyond repair. It is time the people rise up and throw every one of these hypocrits out of office and start fresh!

History teaches that when a nation reaches the state where we are now; e.g., the political leaders realize that they can buy votes by taxing the rich and those that produce and giving those taxes to the masses who produce nothing, then that nation is soon to be a bankrupt, if not destroyed nation. That is where America is right now, and if we go too far down this road, we will never be able to reverse that trend without another armed revolution like occured in 1776. God help America; God bless America.

Right to Privacy...A Thing of the Past?

What can possibly be the reasoning that could be used to justify taking away a union member's right to privacy when they vote on union matters? For that matter, what could be the justification for ever removing anyone's right to privacy when voting on any matter?
That Obama and the Democrats in general would support such a move is indictative of the lack of understand they have of the original intent of the founding fathers when they wrote the Constitution.
Our founding fathers fought the revolution to get away from a dictitorial central government, the English Monarchy. They fought the revolution to have the freedom to worship Christ (not God; Christ!) in the manner they wished. They fought the revolution to protect the average citizen's inalienable (God-Given; not man-given) right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Now, the government wishes to pass legislation which will make union members vote in a public vote, not a secret vote, on any union issues or a decision to align with the unions or not. What right does the Federal Government have to stick their noses into this issue anyhow. The union members should decide this; not the Federal Government.
The Government usurped much of these intrusional tactics when they misused the intent of the 14th amendment and started implying that amendment gave the Federal Government the right to override a sovereign state's laws if the federal courts thought that state's laws were in violation of the Constitution. Our founders wrote the Constitution to prohibit the Federal Government from doing exactly that, but the idiots on the U.S. Supreme Court that tied the second amendment together with the fourteenth amendment

The Twilight Zone...It's REAL!!!

In just a little over thirty days, we have seen a trillion dollar "stimulus" bill passed by Congress and signed by the President, a seven-hundred billion dollar plan announced to rescue the flailing financial industry, all on borrowed money, and now yesterday he announced that he plans to cut the U.S. Budget deficit by one-half in his first four years in office.

I feel like I have been transported into a parallel dimension where facts are irrelevant and the truth is whatever our fearless leader says it is, even if it defies all the laws of economics, physics, math, and common sense combined!
He says that he will do this by repealing the Bush tax cuts, increasing the tax rates on anyone making more than $250,000 a year, and increasing the capital gains tax rate.

Ok...look back at history and tell me one time in our nation, or really ANY nation's history where increasing taxes has done anything but REDUCE the total amount of revenue a government collects. The answer...NEVER!!! Why? People and businesses stop spending. When they stop spending, people get laid off, businesses loses sales, revenues drop and tax revenues to the government drop!

Oh...I forget. This is the anointed one, the boy genius, the savior of America that can do no wrong. And he has such a winning team behind him! Barney Frank, the architect of the fall of the financial industry. Joe (alias foot-in-the-mount) Biden, Harry (alias Rail Man) Reid, and the best of all, Nancy (I'll get you, my pretty) Pelosi.

Talk about an axis of evil! We have it sitting in the White House and the halls of Congress. Button up your billfolds, my children, the government is coming to help you!

Wall Street has a lot smarter people than Washington, and it has gone down over five-thousand points since it became evident Mr. Obama would win the White House.
I hope I am wrong; I pray I am wrong, because I love my America, unlike Nancy, Harry, Mr. John (the traitor) Murtha, and our President. I'm afraid that as the old addage goes "those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat its mistakes", we have put our children's and our children's children's fate into the hands of idiots.

"Scotty, beam me up back to the mothership! I've been transported into the realm of nothing but village idiots!!!"

God help us, and God bless America.

The Only Thing we have to Fear is Fear Itself...and the Federal Government!

In FDR’s first inaugural address.03/04/1933, he said this: “So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself—nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance…” Now, nearly 76 years later, we face the same demon again; fear. We fear recession, we fear depression, we fear loss of our assets, we fear being unemployed, we fear losing our houses, our jobs, and all the material possessions that we have acquired. That fear causes us to withdraw from society with regard to buying anything but absolute necessities. We sock away as much as we can in savings for that “rainy day” we fear might come at any time.

FDR also said in that same inaugural address as he spoke of the evil behavior of the financial industry giants that had failed America then: “…Happiness lies not in the mere possession of money; it lies in the joy of achievement, in the thrill of creative effort. The joy and moral stimulation of work no longer must be forgotten in the mad chase of evanescent profits. These dark days will be worth all they cost us if they teach us that our true destiny is not to be ministered unto but to minister to ourselves and to our fellow men.

Recognition of the falsity of material wealth as the standard of success goes hand in hand with the abandonment of the false belief that public office and high political position are to be valued only by the standards of pride of place and personal profit; and there must be an end to a conduct in banking and in business which too often has given to a sacred trust the likeness of callous and selfish wrongdoing. Small wonder that confidence languishes, for it thrives only on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of obligations, on faithful protection, on unselfish performance; without them it cannot live.”

I can’t say it any better: The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. Now is not the time to cower down to the political gods of gloom and doom. Now is not the time to shrink away from challenge or put off your dreams Vince Lombardi once said “…It's easy to have faith in yourself and have discipline when you're a winner, when you're number one. What you got to have is faith and discipline when you're not a winner.”

America has lost the discipline, the courage, the patience, and the determination that brought us out of the Great Depression and into a nearly sixty year period of unprecedented growth, prosperity, and improvement of quality of life. As FDR said so eloquently years ago, it is time for courage, for faith, for discipline, and for boldness.

Jesus said it nearly 2,000 years ago. “But seek ye first the Kingdom of God and all these things shall be added unto you.” It is time to get our priorities straight, put on our big boy (and girl) britches, and take our country back from the pundants of fear, dependency, and big government, and to be all that God intended us to be. Big government is NOT your friend; it is the worst enemy a free person ever had. Once we get that though our thick skulls, maybe America can get on the road back to being the greatest nation on the planet.
