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.

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.

Facing the debt collector

AP article today:

35% in USA facing debt collectors

Amid the constant story lines that the economy is recovering is the unreported story of depitalism.  And now again a story bubbles to the top pointing to the driver behind any gains (however small) that are actual is buying on credit. See when the economy started falling I had wrote that what was going on was the idea of households living within their means. They were taking rebates and other shenanigans and either saving it or paying off debt. But with a society that’s entertainment industry is funded by MARKETING to the audience (a.k.a. consumer) stuff they don’t have and often stuff that they don’t need, it was only a matter of time than the belt was gonna snap under the pressure. (Heck of a monkey on there back day in and day out!)

Wait for it, soon another so called bubble is gonna bop and then all the market correction and contrived rhetoric will go into spin.

The government who so desperately wants to be everyone’s parent (i.e. dependent on them) has well taught everyone that living beyond your means is okay as well as the antiquated idea of generations past use of a tool called a budget. Why would the dependents be expected to do something that the leadership of our country can’t do?

The big question here: Why does our governmental leadership align with Hamas?

Mr. Krauthammer wrote this week about the vacancy in the presidency in the USA. While he is “spot-on” I would add that considering what is going on in Israel and Gaza that it is a good thing he is vacant and that actually Barak Hussein Obama needs to butt completely out as well as pull his administration out of tampering the situation. I know I posted recently about this belief but a week has past and this nation’s president continues to meddle in the affairs like an overweight, ignorant Monday morning quarterback of a sport he knows nor understands next to nothing about. The tragic thing of this scenario is that he unfortunately has the power to push his ignorance into the actual field of play unlike the normal Monday morning quarterback.

The president and his administration do not have the correct morals, principles and values in 99.9% of the situations and issues that have occurred during his presidency. (I am sure that is the case for before his terms and will be so in the after as well).

Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah exist because of a supernatural evil and hatred of Israel. Don’t listen to our administration’s or MSM view of the matters, read these organizations and governments own words. This hatred has existed for thousands of years under different names.

But over here in America I would  also offer this thought to consider. What does it say about the media (MSM and entertainment industry etc) and our own governmental leaders that so many if not the clear majority often side in beliefs and values with the organizations such Hamas, Iran and Hezebollah? What does it say that they take up the cause of the Palestinians when the Palestinians elected as their government in Gaza the leadership of Hamas? What are we saying about the state of the matter here in our own country?
