So I guess the word “soap box” is appropriate here

I am apprehensive looking ahead to the next presidential election here in the USA.
The worthy candidates that the media will shine a light on seem to be nil. The predicament is because of the state of our society. We (nation/society) have lost our way. Sure there are some “good” people out there but we have allowed the political infrastructure to require people of a different type. Until we address some deep root level cancer in our society we will continue to degenerate.

That said, we are also missing genuine completely sold out to the Lord Jesus Christ Christian leaders and Christians. Ladies and gentlemen we are in a mess. We have allowed the depravity of sin to eat away at the church and by the church is do not mean Rome. Rome (Vatican City actually) is a whole different but closely associated matter. No, what I mean is the church of people such as DL Moody, RA Torrey, WA Criswell, Gipsy Smith, Francis Schaeffer, Billy Sunday, J Frank Norris, Talmedge, etc. That state of the church is essence – gone. Its power certainly is. So is its witness. We – Christians – Jesus said were to be salt and what will one do when the salt has lost its savor? Look around for the answer. Lights, no longer so the darkness permeates just about every nick and corner of living and that includes into the local churches. All that to say, we – Christians – are responsible for the sad state of our society. I think about this just about every day and I can’t think what to do but to “say” something. I know that I am nobody special or a person to look up to etc. but I know what is going on and why and I just have to say something. I am guilty of being part of the problem and I know it and have confessed it and ask God to forgive me for my part. That is all I can do, well that and “say” something to my very small circle/sphere of possible influence and living. If you are a Christian please seek God’s forgiveness and then His strength and wisdom as to what you can do to hopefully be part of the change that is desperately needed.

Don’t miss the point

 

 

 

I think that election results was a repudiation of the leadership of Reid and the Democrats which does include the chief empty suit.

They were given 4 years of all-Democrat leadership when our chief empty suit became president and for that they deliberately iced-out the Republicans and refused to talk budgets while ramming the so-called Affordable Care Act down everyone’s throats. Pelosi was out first. O & Reid spun the dysfunction in such a way that the majority of voting citizens continued to drink the Kool-Aid and gave O another term. With the first two years of the second term Reid continued to ice out Republicans and deliberately cause dysfunction in Congress. Now – finally – his butt is kicked to the curb. He will filibuster and do all he can to disrupt Congress so that nothing gets done. What has to happen is that he is not re-elected in his next election. We have to wait and see if the citizens of Nevada are finally going to wake up and be responsible citizens in the USA.

The voters did not wrestle the gavel out of Reid’s incompetent hands to create a new form of gridlock and dysfunction. He was the toxic key to dysfunction in DC. He was the Igor to O’s Monster. The voters want leadership in Congress. They want bipartisan progression for the good of all the citizens in our nation. That is what the Republicans have to deliver or at least make it publicly well known that they are trying and let the citizens see once again proof positive that the two term elected president should have never received a single vote in his first primary.

Now the Republicans have to put legitimate, good-sense, ethical bills on O’s desk to sign.

Republicans have to show that when in the legitimate good sense of the nation while being fully aligned to our Constitution that they can work with O if allowed. This is the only way that they can keep power in Congress and continue the momentum to a victory in the next presidential election.

Priorities and the Implications

You have a nation that has been having to defend itself from rockets fired into the country by terrorists for a month. Whereas the nation defends itself trying its best to spare civilian lives despite the lack of care by the in power terrorists causing the problems.

You have the chief empty suit president in the US putting more and more pressure on Israel (who by the way is suppose to be an Allie) despite the actions of the terrorists.

Check out the next tactic of the chief loser:

A new report reveals that US President Barack Obama’s administration stopped a shipment of missiles to Israel late last month and tightened weapons shipment procedures to Israel, as tensions between the two nations grow amid Operation Protective Edge.

The report in the Wall Street Journal, released Wednesday night, cites US officials in Obama’s administration, who say they discovered Israel had requested a large number of Hellfire missiles directly through military-to-military channels. An initial batch of the missiles was about to be shipped, according to sources in Israel and the US Congress.

At that point, the Pentagon stepped in and put the transfer on hold. Further, top White House officials instructed various US military agencies to consult with the US State Department before approving any additional requests from Israel.

The US decision to tighten down on arms transfers to Israel comes as the UK is threatening similar actions. On Tuesday, the British government threatened to suspend 12 arms export licenses to Israel if fighting resumed in Gaza.

Why strong arm the people that have shown great restraint in defending their nation?

Dear mister president go back to playing golf and taking vacations and leave the governing and leadership to people who are qualified and have the values and principles to make the right decisions.

I can hear the man saying “Wait, (pause) wait for it…”

Despite the current administration’s spinning and the general support of MSM, all is not well here in the USA financially and/or economically.

Don’t even get me going about politically or spiritually.

*not shocked*

I am waiting for war crime charges to be leveled against our current administration for the fact that some innocent civilians have died in Afghanistan because of our drone technology and specifically for the fact that we have not shared this technology with the Taliban and the Afghanistan government.  Sounds a bit crazy don’t you think? (If it doesn’t then please quit reading because you must clearly lack common sense.)

Yet these threats are being spewed by the top human rights official at the UN. No – really, read the article. See Israel has not shared their technology of the Iron Dome with the aggressors. Really! *not shocked* See anti-Antisemitism is a very real catalyst in much of society and politics. The hatred is supernatural in its core and, trust me, it is only going to get worse. In the near future Jews will be hunted and slaughtered by powers much bigger than Hamas and Iran. It will happen. You can roll your eyes but that does not change the reality that it will soon be fact. Surely if you have any common sense and are an open minded individual you must wonder why there is a supernatural hatred for them. Do you remember anytime when Israel unprovoked decided to attack Jordan, Syria or Egypt just to wipe them off the face of the earth? How about against Iran? The truth is – no that hasn’t happened. Then why such supernatural hatred?

Next question again offered, why does the current president of the USA and his administration constantly put Israel in harm’s way? If you decide it is because they are ignorant then you must realize they don’t think they are. In fact they feel they are wiser and more reasonable than all parties involved. So are they delusional?  Hmmm how does that make you feel then about the current administration? Again, what does that say about our society here in the United States. (I agree with something I read the last couple days about the reality that we ceased to be America we are simply the united States and truth be told that is not accurate either. But that is fodder for a different post.)

So we now learn where all the cement went that was funneled into Gaza. It wasn’t for roads and buildings, it went for tunnels to move terrorists and weapons. Again, remember that Hamas is the ELECTED government of the Palestinians.

90 minutes into a cease fire and Hamas breaks the pact by murdering two soldiers and kidnapping another one. Netanyahu then tells our government to quit second guessing him and Obama does his usual and musters what is being called as “strong words”. Lets be honest here, the so called strong words is not really because two soldiers are dead and another missing it is because he is not pleased with publicly displaying him with yolk on his face.

Meanwhile CNN (aka MSM) spins an article that is biased (*no shock*) painting the whole Gaza matter sympathetically for misunderstanding the muslim brotherhood. Really! If you read the article carefully word for word and not put what you think he is saying into it but leave it as it is written you see that Gaza is a war of aggression against them not against Israel.

I give it about a week at the max and Obama and his cronies will again be putting pressure on Israel to negotiate a ceasefire instead of allowing them to finally rid as best as possible the whole Hamas cancer correctly.

The modern day Nero

Debka reporting today that Netanyahu is debating which route to go under the apparent delusional premise that the current presidential administration of the USA has Israel’s best interest in mind. Meanwhile Uri Ariel has a clear and ACCURATE message for our president “Leave us alone!”

Mr. Netanyahu for crying out loud wake up! Wise up! Quick looking at USA funds or whatever it is you fear losing. This current administration DOES NOT CARE about the nation of Israel as you do. Nor do they have interests that are of such value as you do in your own HOMELAND. You have the backing of your Arab neighbors for crying out loud to rid the stronghold of Hamas in Gaza. The USA does not have your back at this moment. Hopefully the next administration will but as the situation with Iran should have surely shown you and as well as the red-line of Syria should have shown you and as for the rhetoric and bad blood the current administration has stirred in their relationship with Israel ==== wake up! Look at what transpired in Libya, Iraq and Afghanistan under this current administration – look at Iraq now! With knowledge that “Islamic State” was rising and poising for striking Iraq —– the current administration DID NOTHING!!

Obama is merely Nero fiddling while the Middle East burns.
