Vote D if…you want Deception, the Father of Destruction, to control Washington DC

The most fundamental relationships in life are destroyed by deception!

For example, marriage is destroyed by deception. What marriage can last when one partner continually deceives the other? How long will a marriage last, when one partner cheats on the other and constantly hides that behavior in a cloak of lies?  Why is the divorce rate in America over 50%? Deception! And what does the guilty party so often do? They falsely accuse their partner of doing what they are doing! They try to cover their deception with more lies!

It is a prescription for disaster, yet this is the political ploy being used by the Democrats. Deceive and cover their dastardly deeds with more lies and then smear the opposition with even more lies.

By the way, who is in the forefront of destroying the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA)?  Democrats, liberals, and Rhino Republicans!

Vote D if…you want Deception, the Father of Destruction, to ruin America!

The Bible in the News

Every week a hundred stories, if not a thousand, illustrate the truth that the Bible is the most relevant and reliable book on the school’s library shelf.  Having been a preacher for almost 50 years, it is my purpose to pick a story each week that illuminates the impact the Bible has had, could have, or should have on “modern” mankind. 

The battle for homosexual rights won another victory in Arizona when Governor Brewer vetoed a bill that guaranteed the right of business owners to exercise their religious beliefs. The bill was an attempt to restore some lost religious freedoms.[i]

However, the homosexual rights advocates claimed it would give business owners the right to discriminate.[ii]  Besides using the age old technique of vilifying the enemy, the homosexual rights advocates threatened economic boycotts.[iii]  In addition, Eric Holder announced that the Justice Department will recognize that same-sex spouses should have the same legal rights as all other married couples.[iv]

What does the Bible have to say about homosexual rights?

The Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, made headline news. Bob Costas made news when he described Russian Communism as a “pivotal experiment.”  PIVOTAL?  How about FAILED experiment!  How about DISASTROUS experiment!  This “experiment” cost around 50 million lives, plus millions sent to Siberia.[i] The Soviet Socialist experiment failed at every level to produce the “paradise” it had promised. So, great was the failure that a literary supporter wrote Animal Farm to ridicule the failures of the Russian experiment—the pigs are in control! The Russian “pivotal experiment” proved that Marxists are mad, Socialists are shams, and liberals are lunatic.

The Olympics at Sochi give a glimpse inside communism—where the water looks like urine and the bathrooms don’t work—and an elaborate fireworks display and closing ceremony conceal the “blessings of utopia.”  Every liberal should have to spend 10 years in a Russian gulag, 10 years in a Chinese slave shop, and 10 years in a Cuban hospital. Every American student should have to read Animal Farm and spend a semester studying the reality of communism.

Over the years many liberals have said that Jesus was a socialist/liberal and that the Bible teaches communism. Exactly, what does the Bible say about this “pivotal experiment” in history called socialism/communism/Marxism?

This week it is the State of the Dissed-Union Speech.  All of the “talking heads” have analyzed Obama’s speech and have summed it up in four words: BLAH…BLAH…BLAH…BLAH

An investigative reporter of this blog has a secret source within the White House and has obtained a copy of the 2015 State of the Union speech.

Without further ado, I am going to reveal the salient points and give some Biblical analysis.

Lone Survivor and the Rules of Engagement

The movie Lone Survivor brings into sharp focus the stupidity of liberal politicians who have never been on the front lines. An entire group of soldiers are wiped out, except for one lone survivor, because of the liberal rules of engagement.

These soldiers were sent on a mission, but the mission was compromised by some Afghan goat herders. The rules of engagement said that they were not enemy combatants and had to be set free. When released, these Afghans went immediately to warn the village, who sent out combatants to surround and kill them. A senseless tragedy caused by liberal ineptness.

Fortunately for the lone survivor, friendly Afghans saved this hero’s life. The rules of engagement should not be blind. They should recognize those friendly to our troops while at the same time countering the real threat.

Common sense would have tied each goat herder to the trees so that our men could have either completed their mission or returned to safety.

However, common sense in liberal politicians is as rare snow in Hades.

This year marks the 50^th anniversary of President Johnson’s War on Poverty.[i]  Does any student of history remember the 100 year war?  I wondered how stupid could people be—well… Johnson proved there is always a bigger idiot. His War on Poverty could last a thousand years if it doesn’t bankrupt America first.[ii]

There is no bigger idealistic idiot than someone who thinks mankind can solve poverty. Entering the ring at 2 trillion pounds of hubris—Barrack Obama with his plan to create “Promise Zones.”[iii]  And—how much will these zones cost? Can anyone say “TRILLIONS?”  The government already spends one trillion dollars annually on 80 programs designed to defeat poverty.[iv]  Will more government spending really end poverty?

Since Johnson’s declaration of war, the government has spent over 20 trillion dollars to wipe out poverty.[v]  Strangely, the rate of poverty has not gone down, although spending has gone up.[vi]

So, what does the Bible have to say about poverty?

Unintended Consequences

Many articles have been written about the unintended consequences of Obamascare.[i] Five million people, like me, have lost their insurance—which we liked.  Millions have lost a good doctor—and I wish I could have kept mine. Can you imagine the consternation of the cancer patients who have lost their insurance coverage?  They face months of doctor bills without insurance, and they must navigate a questionable website.

The horror stories of Obamascare are like Mt. Vesuvius—literally destroying millions of lives—and the news media ignores the eruption.  Will they scream when their employer provided policies are cancelled next year?

Volunteer fire departments’ futures hang in the balance because Obamascare says they must provide insurance, but they cannot afford it.[ii]

Americorp teachers lose their coverage…and it was government insurance.[iii]

Millions of unintended consequences!

On the other side of the equation, entrepreneurs are finding affordable and legal ways around Obamascare.  One interesting development is concierge doctor services.

Short and Pity

I received this email from a friend. It cannot be better stated or illustrated. Read and enjoy!

During the 3-1/2 years of World War 2 that started with the Japanese bombing of Pearl Harbor in December 1941 and ended with the Surrender of Germany and Japan in 1945, the U.S. produced; 22 aircraft carriers, 8 battleships, 48 cruisers, 349 destroyers, 420 destroyer escorts, 203 submarines, 34 million tons of merchant ships, 100,000 fighter aircraft, 98,000 bombers, 24,000 transport aircraft, 58,000 training aircraft, 93,000 tanks, 257,000 artillery pieces, 105,000 mortars, 3,000,000 machine guns, and 2,500,000 military trucks.

We put 16.1 million men in uniform in the various armed services, invaded Africa, invaded Sicily and Italy, won the battle for the Atlantic, planned and executed D-Day, marched across the Pacific and Europe, developed the atomic bomb and ultimately conquered Japan and Germany.

It's worth noting, that during the almost exact amount of time, the Obama administration couldn't build a functioning web site.

Last week the story of the Catholic nuns—Little Sisters of the Poor—made headline news.[i]  The nuns are suing the Obama administration because the Obamascare law mandates that they, as employers, must offer their employees birth control, which violates their faith and conscience. These nuns will be forced to pay draconian fines if they refuse to comply with the law.[ii]

The Obamascare law is a clear illustration of the Bible truth about conscience versus government.
