I have the same concerns as graywolf, when are the American People going to wake up and do something about Corp. America sticking it to Us(Lets boycott Arizona instead). The last time the gas price went out of sight so did air Fares. When gas prices came down everything else stayed up and now with the gas prices going up, so are the air fairs and everything else. Most wages have taken a cut to about what they were in the eighties, while the cost of living keeps going up, THANKS CORP. AMERICA FOR YOUR CONCERNS ABOUT YOUR LOYAL CUSTOMERS. OBAMA MUST LOVE YOU. Boycott Obama.

I have talked about Obamas private Army(1,000,000 man as he calls it,) many times. One more time it in the news and is real, around the end of 2009 or the first of 2010 Fox News had a short story about the 30 new training camps that are being built around the country at a est. cost of $300,000,000. They claim these camps are to train Fireman, Police, Security personal and other like personal. In reality they are to train Obamas Army and have internment areas for the unruly (tea partiers 912ers and other PO Citizens. Now is the time to start Protesting these camps and there army personal soon to be set out on the streets of AMERICA. Just for your information a Battalion of Men can be as much as 15,000 people. YOU MUST READ THIS.

Homosexuals are Counting on Your Children to Push Agenda

* 4-19-2010
* Categorized in: Constitution, Ethics, Family, Law

"California homosexual activist groups are afraid of the conservative backlash against Barack Obama, and so they didn't want to go on this year's ballot," Randy Thomasson explains. "So the small homosexual activist group that tried to didn't get the funding that they wanted."

As a result, petition signatures fell short of the needed 695,000. But Equality California, the largest pro-homosexual activist group in the state, is shooting for a position on the 2012 ballot. . . . Same-sex "marriage" activist organizations are counting on new graduates, mainly those graduating from school by 2012 who have been indoctrinated in their schools to accept the homosexual lifestyle, going to the polls. That is why Thomasson finds it important that parents teach their children the truth about the lifestyle and traditional family values.

Terse AP Report Avoids Cynical Politics Behind Prop 8 Repeal Failure
By Tom Blumer (Bio | Archive)
Sun, 04/18/2010 - 20:23 ET

In one of those "I guess we have to mention it, but we'll get it out of the way quickly" reports, the Associated Press on Monday, April 12, Tersely told its readers the following about the failure of an attempt in California to repeal California's Proposition 8 (reproduced in full for fair use and discussion purposes):

What AP chose to avoid telling the rest of the nation is why "more established gay rights groups" were not involved in the 2010 repeal campaign. In a Friday OneNewsNow.com item, Randy Thomasson of SaveCalifornia.com explained why:

"California homosexual activist groups are afraid of the conservative backlash against Barack Obama, and so they didn't want to go on this year's ballot," Thomasson explains. "So the small homosexual activist group that tried to didn't get the funding that they wanted."

As a result, petition signatures fell short of the needed 695,000. But Equality California, the largest pro-homosexual activist group in the state, is shooting for a position on the 2012 ballot.

... Same-sex "marriage" activist organizations are counting on new graduates, mainly those graduating from school by 2012 who have been indoctrinated in their schools to accept the homosexual lifestyle, going to the polls. That is why Thomasson finds it important that parents teach their children the truth about the lifestyle and traditional family values.

In other words, "more established gay right groups" made a cynical political calculation that it was more important to avoid hurting Barack Obama and the Democratic Party than it was to try to push their initiative through this year. These groups' constituencies should be upset should be upset by their additional two years of dithering. It would seem reasonable to contend that the AP didn't want the rest of the country to know this.

The political calculation just noted would seem to imply one of two things:

* If we're to believe the conventional wisdom in some quarters, Tea Party activists aren't really on board with the longstanding social issues such as opposition to abortion and same-sex marriage. If so, Prop 8 repeal proponents made a serious miscalculation, because under this logic Tea Partiers would be expected to tip the balance in their direction.
* Tea Party activists are more socially conservative than essays such as this one are letting on, and Prop 8 might have failed by more than it did in 2008 if it were on the 2010 ballot.

I believe it's Door Number 2.

The full text of Prop 8 is, "Shall the California Constitution be changed to eliminate the right of same-sex couples to marry providing that only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California?" It passed in November 2008 by a 52.3% - 47.7% margin, or over 600,000 votes out of almost 13.1 million cast. Since its defeat, as chronicled consistently by Michelle Malkin, sore losers have been targeting people who they know gave money to the Prop 8 effort or who voted for the measure with a wide variety of personal and professional reprisals.

I have received an email this morning from "Vision to America" a conservative Christian organization, and they are VERY concerned about H.R. 3017, Employment Non-Discrimination Act of 2009 (ENDA). This bill is mandated protection for lesbian, gay, bi-sexual, transgender, and gender confused persons in the workplace. Specifically, that employers must allow gender confused men to use the ladies facilities, including showers, or be forced to construct new facilities, and that specifically faith based organization could face government imposed fines if they choose not to hire a person in the aforementioned group. That translates to a church getting fined or sued if the don't hire a gay lay person that applies to help out in the youth program or music program. Aside from the obvious, I am as equally as concerned about the trend of reverse discrimination that is coming out of out current slate of legislators. Why is this legislation necessary, I am not aware of any legislation that says that the United Negro College Fund has to give scholarships to white males, or legislation that prohibits the NAACP from passing up representing a straight, white christian male who was turned down his application to a predominantly African-American University, or the legislation to prevent a "turban" from being worn in public because a Christian might feel demeaned or persecuted by their public display of an obvious religious act.
This is moving quickly from annoying, to concerning, and quickly through concerning into alarming. Is anyone else concerned about this piece of legislation specifically?

Here is the link to the actual bill: http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h111-3017

Let me know what your thoughts are on this is...

If you put your schedule BEFORE GOD, the devil will make sure He doesn't have a place!

But the Lord replied to her by saying, Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things; there is need of only one or but a few things. Mary has chosen the good portion [that which is to her advantage], which shall not be taken away from her. —Luke 10:41, 42

MARTHA, NOT UNLIKE you and me, had an agenda to accomplish. While Mary sat at the feet of Jesus listening to His every word, Martha was overly occupied with much serving. She had put her schedule before Jesus and she was about to let her frustration boil over and miss the blessing of the Lord's presence. It is easy to understand the bitterness of her complaint: "Lord, is it nothing to You that my sister has left me to serve alone? Tell her then to help me [to lend a hand and do her part along with me]!" (Luke 10:40).

Jesus gently showed Martha that her first priority needed to be built around Him, despite the needs of the household that seemed so pressing at the moment. To sit at the feet of Jesus was a feast from which she must first partake. If you work your schedule around God everything else will fall into place.

How to Pollute a Mind: Lessons from John Dewey and Van Jones

By Chuck Rogér

A new Ivy League "fellow" will soon have the opportunity to teach students his belief that white people are "steering poison into the people-of-color communities" and that America should give up its wealth to the American Indians. This June, Princeton University will welcome to its hallowed halls former Obama Green Jobs Czar Van Jones, a self-proclaimed communist. The story of how America started down a path leading to communist instructors in our classrooms begs to be told.
