Finally someone talking sense about the rising gas prices. What you hear on the news is so distorted it borders on lies. I’ll resist the urge to rant on the real reasons for why gas prices are going up so high. Watch this video, Newt’s got a smart plan that actually makes sense: There is a follow up one here: He mentions over 25,000 signers, it is now over 1.2 million. Americans are tired of the backwards thinking that is control
OK, as a peace offering to all my friends (and Canadians) who don’t share all my conservative Republican views, here is a tribute I think we can all agree with! GOD BLESS AMERICA… ALL OF US! (even the weirdos) HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY! Thanks to Tannerman on Twitter for the link!
Why are Christians afraid of politics? Getting Christians to discuss politics is harder than getting non-Christians to discuss Religion. I know the old saying, “Don’t discuss politics and religion,” but that saying comes out of the fear that we shouldn’t talk about things of which we might disagree. But Christians, of all people, are the very ones who OUGHT to MODEL talking about what we disagree about. I mean, don’t we celebrate how well different denominations can get along and often work together even though they have very sharp differences when it comes to theology? So why can’t we discuss politics nicely? Every time I do a post about politics I get e-mails about them – and very few comments on the post. No one ever e-mails me in response to my blog posts (except a few relatives that don’t know how to do the comments – I love you guys, and its ok!) But when it comes to politics, I get e-mails. And I don’t mean all the e-mails are negative, most aren’t – but I find it interesting that they are sent privately via e-mail instead of posted live on the blog. If Christians stay silent, we surrender…
It seems that I see a lot of Obama bumper stickers, so I’ve been thinking of getting one for myself so I can join the crowd, but I don’t see anything on the stickers that describes Obama’s political philosophy. Yeah, I know “Change” but he offers nothing of real change, only more extreme liberal solutions to problems that liberal “solutions” have created to begin with. (unless you only listen to the mainstream media who have forgotten how to research and report.) And can I just say, I LOVE to hear this man speak! He is the master at saying nothing so well! I always find myself agreeing with him since he says nothing of substance. How do people not see that he is hiding what he truly plans to do? It’s so obvious, it’s like a kid answering his parents questions truthfully when they are trying to get to the bottom of who broke the cookie jar. “Yes, the Cookie Jar is broken. There are far too many broken cookie jars in America today! Something must be done about the lack of cookies in this house. Who is going to clean up the broken the glass? And what about the…
Was checking out John McCain’s Website and enjoyed playing Pork Invaders! I thought this was a pretty creative way to get a message out – especially the fact that John McCain has a record of $0 in ear marked pork compared to over $740 million to Obama. That’s a slight difference. Play it here on my site: (my score was 13,030. Put your score in comments!) OR CHECK IT OUT ON JOHN’S SITE
