What can we do?

2009-12-05T07:39:00.002-06:00

All the polls tell us that the American people are against Obamacare, more taxes, bigger government, tax funded abortion, etc. What good does it do when our elected officials ignore what we the people are saying? Obama has turned a deaf ear to us i.e when he said he was unaware of all the tea parties taking place. Even our own state representatives aren't paying attention. I'm confident that there are enough conservatives, independents, and moderate democrats to over ride Harry Reid but they won't because they are afraid of their party (dems) and Obama. In the name of their party they are willing to enact laws that they know in their conscience are wrong. I know that all these things must happen before our Lord comes again but I just cannot understand the mentality of people who think they way these people do. I'm from the midwest (bible belt) and I've been raised on the bible all my life and to me it's so clear, it's so obvious what the right thing to do is. I know that we're not meant to understand it all, we're just to have faith in the workings of our Lord. We will all understand by and by. For those who don't believe in God and the Bible....it doesn't matter if you believe or not, it's all true and by the time you find it out, it will be too late you will already have taken up residence in the pit of fire hosted by none other than Satan himself. My prayers are that you come to your senses before you breathe your last breath this side of eternity. God is good and He cares for you.

Go directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect 200.00

2009-11-10T06:11:00.002-06:00

Are you willing to go to jail based on the beliefs of a select few in Washington DC? That's what could very well happen if ObamaCare goes through. He is trying to tell you what he thinks is good for you and if you don't do what he wants you to (purchase his insurance), you could go to jail for 5 years!! When Mr Obama ran for office, everyone was so sure that he would be the one to fix all things wrong with America. How do you like him now??????

What's wrong with America is the government and it's desire to run our lives from cradle to grave and by the way they want to help you along on that journey if you're over 55. There could be a committee somewhere who could decide for you if they think you've over stayed your welcome. Frankly I believe that someone, who shall remain nameless, has made an unholy alliance with the devil and the American people are the ransom. Our freedoms are going away slowly every time Obama signs his name with the stroke of his pen and we are like sheep being lead to slaughter as if our brains have been sucked out of our heads and replaced with mush. I'm telling you people, the day is coming quickly when we will pay for sitting on our hands and doing nothing. Where has our loyalty and pride in the USA gone, certainly Mr and Mrs Obama don't have any, they slam America everytime they have the opportunity, but true Americans should be standing up to the few who want to destroy us and say NO MORE, NOT IN MY COUNTRY!!!!!!!!! Bring God back to His rightful place in our lives and you'll see no more of these false teachers that the Bible warns us about, those who think they're on the same level as Him will find out where the real power lies. All we have to do is cry out to Him in true repentance and He will provide. He promised and GOD DOES NOT break His promises!!!!!!!!

Cry babies............

2009-10-23T07:29:00.005-05:00

Does Obama really believe himself to be above the Constitution????????? Obviously yes!!!!! In my opinion, he continues to slip deeper and deeper into believing that he can rule everybody and everything. I'm so tired of his whining and his threats. When he comes on TV I can hardly bear to look at him, let alone hear him speak. He needs to go somewhere where there is an oppressive form of government and run for Dictator because there's no room in America for his kind of ideas and desires!!!!! He and his hatchet men/women are ruining this country and if he's allowed to continue, I shutter to think where we will be in five years!!!!! I'm so angry and frustrated with him I could just spit nails!!!!!! CHEERS to the rest of the news networks for standing for what's right, we need more of that, much, much more! (In case you didn't hear, the WH wasn't going to allow FoxNews to attend an interview session with the "Pay Czar". The other networks said if Fox can't come, we won't participate either. Way to go!!!!!)

Hush money......

2009-10-17T09:57:00.002-05:00

If I receive a 250.00 "stimulus" check I will tear it up and mail it back to Mr Obama. I may be old but I'm not stupid, I know a bribe when I smell one and this one stinks to high heaven. Why do people offer bribes, to get you to do what they want you to do. For this reason I feel it would be against what I stand for because this money is dirty. All the "stimulus" packages have been bribes and therefore dirty! It's time for the Silver community to show moral values and stand for what's right. Most of us haven't lived all these years without learning something and what's going on now in this country is wrong and I say enough is enough. I've had my fill of it and we need to demand that it stop. By the grace of God, I look forward to 2010 when I can show them who really has the power!!!!

I believe that God is on the side of justice and I believe that He will support those who are trying to do what's right. My prayer is that He will forgive us and be merciful because we are all sinners in need of His blessing. God is good!!!!!!!!!

Sick and tired.......

2009-10-15T08:26:00.002-05:00

I am so utterly sick and tired of these people in Washington, who are suppose to represent us, continue to back this ObamaCare bill. Why can't they see what it really means for us? Of course, we know that it isn't about caring for the people, it's about power and they are all on a power trip that they don't want to get off of. Their concern for what happens to the American people is zero, after all no matter what happens out here in the world, their health care is the best for a very low price (40 something dollars). I get so frustrated and downright afraid! I'm one of those seniors that some want to "just let die", that may get medicare cut, who will receive no social security raise this year and who's medicare payment will be going up. Tell me what kind of future does that sound like? Granted medicare might not have been the best thing that government could have done but it's here now and people who are on it depend on it. Don't any of these people have parents or grandparents that might be effected by all this? I know that the Lord will provide and to worry is a lack of faith but I'm human and sometimes I slip and when that happens I'm terrified!

Venting.........

2009-10-10T07:53:00.002-05:00

I have a new little guy coming into my life very soon. He is very special and I can't wait to meet him. I worry, I should say I get concerned, about his future and that of his big sister. I know that God is in control but the devil is working overtime too. At time it feels like Satan is winning but I know that's just my momentary lack of faith. I want to pray for Obama and his henchmen, I really do but when I do I find it terribly hard to be sincere. The Lord tells us that we must pray for our enemies, for their change of heart and I will even when I sure don't feel like it.

I have a very hard time trying to figure out how the liberals can believe what they believe. Even if they don't have a spiritual belief, where is their common sense? I wonder if they run their personal financial affairs the way they want to run ours thru the spending of our tax dollars? It just amazes me how absolutely stupid they sound when they are trying to justify their actions and whats more amazing, they think we're buying it! I get so frustrated and angry sometimes!!!!!!

What's going to happen when the government takes over our health care, what will be next....education, property, check books, how often and when we may use our bathrooms? That sounds silly I know but the whole thing is just incomprehensible to me.

I'm not even going to get started on the Nobel Peace Prize farce! What a sham!!!!!

WHAT?!?!?!?!?.....

2009-10-09T06:34:00.001-05:00

OBAMA?????........NOBEL PEACE PRIZE????? YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING!!!!!!!!!! Somebody needs to dump the kool-aide jug, people are going crazy with drink!!!!!!!

ObamaCare not the answer

2009-09-04T06:07:00.003-05:00

Some obviously uninformed people are saying that others shouldn't die because of the lack of Obamacare. That would be a very sad but what do they think is going to happen when health care is rationed because there aren't enough doctors? You can die while you wait for treatment. Obama is on a power trip and he's said that he'll do whatever it takes to get his plan passed. I shutter to think how he defines "whatever"! How many times does this man have to pick your pocket before you say no more? We need a change in the system, I agree but we don't need the government in our business anymore than it already is. This is so clear, why can't people see this?

We the people.....

2009-08-31T08:15:00.002-05:00

If the people of America don't start taking back our country now, there's no end to the extent that Obama will go to intrude in our lives, making as many decisions for us as we will allow. A home schooled child has now been ordered to public school because her mother is to rigid on matters of faith. In other words, she is a Christian mother who's teaching her daughter Christian values. This runs in direct opposition to what the government thinks is good for us. If moral values win out government doesn't stand a chance. All it takes is for good people to rise up and make themselves heard, loud and clear. We don't want a dictator in the White House!!!!!!!! Barack, Nancy, Harry and all those who agree with them....go home, we don't need what you're pedaling in our lives! Our loudest voice can be heard when we go to the polls in 2010, we have a choice and we'd better make the right one.

Obama brain......shorted out

2009-08-21T20:36:00.002-05:00

If anyone is still under the mistaken impression that Obama gives a flip about America, consider this.........why is he willing to BORROW money in order to drill for oil in BRAZIL!!!!!! Everyday I think I've heard everything where this man is concerned but he's over the top, again. He isn't going to be satisfied until he's broken the back of this country and it's people. I still haven't figured out just what he's trying to prove except that he's boss and he's going to do whatever he pleases regardless of how stupid. I think all the power has gone to his head and short circuited his brain!

Government without God

2009-08-14T06:47:00.004-05:00

In reading my Bible this morning, I came across what the Bible says our government should be. It is to uphold the good and punish evil and God has delegated authority to our human government. We are to obey our government as long as what is ask of us doesn't violate God's word. Our leaders serve by virtue of God's appointment and are His servants in their offices. Our elected officials are to actively uphold the good. As Christians, we are to be active in the affairs of our government so it's values are consistent with God's word.

Christians, it's time for us to stand and be heard! Our government leaders have failed miserable at their appointed positions. They are trying to impose on the American people their ideas of what is right and wrong without consulting the Word of God. One of the Ten Commandments says, Thou shalt not kill, yet there are thousands of little ones murdered everyday in this country in the name of choice! Does anyone else feel as I do that we've elected the wrong kind of people to run America? Abortion is wrong, there is absolutely no way it can be justified (except life of the mother) and for all those who are willingly involved in this industry of killing will face the consequences unless they are on their knees begging for the Lord's forgiveness. Today, right now, wouldn't be too soon to stop what you're doing, repent and start pleading for mercy! God is good, He is great and He will forgive those who are sincere in their willingness to turn from their sin. Do it today!

Enough is enough....

2009-08-06T06:58:00.003-05:00

I am so tired of the liberals whining when America says no to them. Obama can't stand it when all do not bow before him and say "Yes, Your Lordship" I'm part of the "mob" that wants Obamacare stopped! It's wrong and it's hurtful to those it's pretending to help. I'm a senior citizen and I don't want a committee of medically uneducated men and women telling me that I'm too old to receive any kind of treatment that my doctor thinks I should have. My Lord will tell me when it's time for me to leave this earth, not some left wing kooks who think they know everything. They have enough blood on their hands without adding mine. Continue to stand up and say what you mean America, we can't depend on our representatives to speak for us. It's time for the killing of innocent babies to stop and for the government to get out of our private lives. It's also time for Americans with moral consciences to take over.

Put your money where your mouth is

2009-07-23T08:23:00.005-05:00

Question.....If Mr. Obama, thinks his healthcare plan is so good for America, why doesn't he lead by example and show his good faith by being first in line to sign up? Followed by every member of the House and Senate who also thinks it's exactly what this country needs? (I hope no one is hurt in the crush to get in line.) I wouldn't want to trade HIS benefits for what he wants to saddle the people of this country with either. There will be a day when the American people will speak again at the ballot box and he and all his supporters may have to suffer the consequences for all these wasteful and hurtful things they are doing in Washington DC.
