WHAT CAN WE EXPECT FROM THE LIBERALS???


blog-post-4-electoral-college

If you honestly believe the rhetoric of Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama that the left will or even that they believe they should give Donald Trump a chance you are going to be in for a rude awakening.  That seeming Olive Branch will not be extended long and Rush Limbaugh was right in his prediction of one of their prime tactics against Trump.

What did the Democrats do when Al Gore lost to George W. Bush?  Did they all get behind the Bush presidency and seek reconciliation and unification?  NOPE!  They began almost immediately attempt to ‘delegitimize’ his presidency and after harping on that throughout his first term they succeeded in shifting the thinking of a large segment of the population into believing that he stole the election, was simply a dumb cowboy, and everything he did was corrupt.  He managed to win a 2nd term but it was over the inflammatory rhetoric and outright fabrications of the Democrats.  They are never gracious losers even though initially they may attempt to present that image.  Of course, when they win, they say as did Barack Obama to the Republicans, “You lost deal with it” or “Elections have consequences.”  Graciousness, right? 

They won’t attempt the ‘hanging chad’ effort with Donald Trump but they have already begun attempting to ‘delegitimize’ his election by attacking the Electoral College.  You may think that popular vote should decide the elections but I caution you to consider the incredible wisdom of our Founding Fathers.  They gave us a Republic, not a Democracy and therein lies the problem with strictly utilizing the popular vote.  If we were a Democracy the popular vote would be the only means to determine the outcome.  However, since we are a Republic or a Republican Democracy, not a Pure Majority-Vote Democracy we must remember that we are a Union of Sovereign States.  The founders designed a means whereby each state would have proportional representation in the decision for president.  If we allow the highly populated areas such as California and New York to determine the outcome, the rest of the country loses its voice and representation.  Rarely, does a candidate fail to receive a majority of Electoral Votes and a plurality of popular votes but it can happen and when it does it gives understanding as to the wisdom and purpose the founders had in designing that system!  They sought to preserve the sovereignty and voice of every state giving them proportional representation.

What will the Democrats, Liberals, Leftist, and Socialist Activist do?  They will, riot calling it a spontaneous protest, seek to coerce the Electors to disregard their states popular vote and seek legislation to trash the Electoral College claiming the election was stolen from them and the majority of voters.  But, I contend that the will of the States, which represents the people, was and is done through the Electoral College System.  Are we willing to allow the most populated areas such as New York City, Los Angeles, San Francisco and other cities and/or states determine the direction of the country?  Are we willing to eliminate the 10th Amendment and destroy the sovereignty of the individual states?  Do we want those living in sparsely populated states having a sense that their vote and voice is ignored?  That is a recipe for tyranny and a ‘fundamental transformation’ of America from being the Constitutional Republic into a Pure Democracy which our founders were adamantly opposed.  In a Pure Democracy, the knee-jerk decision of the masses shapes the direction of the nation.  Whereas in a Republic there is proportional representation and a Congressional process by which change is effected allowing time for cooler heads to prevail and reason to do its designed work.

Sadly, there will be some Republican Elitist and a portion of the Never Trump crowd that will join their chorus and if they are successful we will have won the election but forever lost the Republic.  I will fight that with everything in me for I see that path the Road to Tyranny and Anarchy in that path.  I am on the side of the Constitution, Liberty, Freedom and want to preserve, protect, and defend our Republic and thereby preserve our Freedom and Liberty.  You may not like Trump and he may prove to be a bad president, I do not know.  However, the message of the masses in virtually all regions of the nation was a clear rejection of corruption, big government, higher taxes, weakened national security, and the disaster of Obamacare.  There is truly a movement of citizens, not just Whites, that have had enough and have drawn a line in the sand, saying, NO MORE!  We want change but not the kind of hopeless change that Barack Obama brought to the table and Hillary Clinton and the Democrats promote.  We want the Constitutional Republic established by our founders where the three branches of government function as designed and provide true and adequate checks and balances.

I hope you see through their insincere outrage and attack on the Constitutional System we have for electing our president.  I hope you see it for what it is, a ploy to ‘delegitimize’ a Trump presidency to advance their cause and agenda, not in the interest of America and Americans.  They have expressed and demonstrated their disdain for the wisdom and guidelines our Founding Fathers established but we dare not let them steal that from us.  God help us to stand firm in defense of the Constitution and Freedom.

God, bless you and God bless America!

TOMORROW WE DECIDE…


election-2016

I am genuinely and seriously praying that all those who tell me that I am ‘overstating’ the criticalness of this election and to just ‘chill’ are right.  I am praying that those of you who have decided that it is okay to vote in such a way that facilitates the ascension of Hillary Rodham Clinton to the White House are right.  I am praying that those who are going to stay home and withhold their vote in protest to the character of the available candidates and believe it will not help push the Democrats over the top are right.  I do not think you are, but I hope you are!  This is one time I am seriously praying that I am wrong!  I am praying that what I see coming is a simple case of paranoia and after 2-4 years of a Hillary Clinton presidency we have seen the Republic so damaged it is unrecoverable.

My problem with the theory that it is no big deal are the last eight years!  I did not yell from the rooftop that if Barack Obama became president the Republic would be lost or destroyed.  What I predicted and warned was that he would do incredible and possibly irrevocable damage to our Constitutional Republic.  How could anyone not acknowledge that he has done incredible damage to our Republic if not irreparable damage?  How can we not see the erosion of our Constitutional Rights and liberties on many fronts?  How can we not see the damage to our economy, the weakening of our national security and sovereignty, and the increase of terrorist activity throughout the world?  How can we not see the escalation of racial discord in America that has turned back the clock thirty or more years?  How can we not see the disdain for the rights of the Unborn, Christian views and values, the continual increase of the national debt, and the drive to make Political Correctness the law of the land.  How can we miss the willingness to defend the Islamic jihadist and Islam while decrying Christianity?  You may think me still overstating but if you seriously and honestly look at the facts it is impossible to miss the real intent of his promise or threat to FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORM AMERICA.

Now, after eight years of his escaping the oversight of Congress, side-stepping the courts, and ignoring the Constitution, and the will of the American people we are at the brink of destruction.  Hillary Rodham Clinton and a Democratic regime will not bring harmony, restore the economy, make our borders secure, protect and defend our Constitutional Rights, and make us safer as a nation.  She will do the exact opposite.  My question for everyone who has not yet voted is, “How Much Can More Can We Endure and Survive?”  A second question that I keep asking myself is, “Can We Take the Risk of a Hillary Clinton Presidency?”  My answer is NO!  As I have been praying the scripture that keeps coming to my mind regarding this election is found in Deuteronomy 20:19 – “This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live 20 and that you may love the Lord your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him.” 

As I write this morning two of the many amazing headlines include the revelation that the FBI Director has announced ‘nothing here, no charges’ against Hillary Clinton.  I find it beyond amazing that the FBI could have thoroughly sorted through 650,000 emails and determined NOTHING TO SEE or NOTHING NEW.  I find that difficult to believe with the new leaks and revelations of the intent exposed, the involvement of so many and the overt assault of the DOJ on the process.  I said initially that if the president was okay with the investigation being reopened the process would play out over time but if he was not this weekend the Director would do what he has done.  Was this a ‘false flag’ or a ‘wag the dog’ to divert our attention or to cause people now to say, “See they are falsely accusing Hillary and vote for her out of sympathy”?  Whatever the reason, it will work in Hillary and the Democrat’s favor tomorrow, I have no doubt.  It is collusion and corruption reaching all the way to the White House.

Drudge has a RELEASED A SHOCKER.   They have released a video of the sitting President Barack Obama not only encouraging illegals to vote but assuring them there will be no repercussions when they do.  That is beyond anything a reasonable and moral person could imagine.  It most assuredly is an impeachable offense if not incarceration offense.  Here the titular head of the Democrat Party in an attempt to guarantee the passing of the torch to the next Democrat, Hillary Clinton, is encouraging people who are already breaking the law to further disregard it and VOTE.  This demonstrates such contempt for America, Americans, the Constitution and our system of government it is beyond belief.  The fact that Hillary Clinton has not condemned this indicates her agreement and disregard for the constitution.  The fact that all Democrats are not decrying this as not only unlawful but Anti-American and unconstitutional indicates their willingness to ‘do whatever it takes’ to secure their objective. AMERICA, if we do not stop this we have lost the Republic.  I did not say that we might lose the Republic I said LOST IT.  Congress, Law Enforcement, Judges, what are you going to do?  BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, America are we going to allow this?

That may not resonate with anyone but me and may simply be the LORD speaking to me alone.  I can accept that but when I consider America and what tomorrow will reveal I tremble for my nation.  Yes, we have survived bad administrations in the past but each time the Left gains ground we move nearer and nearer the Loss of Our Republic.  How near are we to the total destruction of the Republic and can we survive a Hillary Clinton Presidency?  I hope so, but believe that her election will be the worst possible thing for America. If Hillary Clinton becomes president there will be a dramatic increase in persecution of Christians who faithfully stand for God’s truth.  Freedom of Speech will be so trampled and selectively allowed, many of us will face criminal charges for ‘hate speech’ for speaking truth.

God bless you and God bless America.   I would never ask you to do other than follow your conscience and allow your reason to reveal to you where we really stand.  May God guide you in that decision!

 

NO INTEGRITY AND NO SHAME THAT I CAN SEE…


integrity-politics-1

I am specifically addressing the Clinton campaign and Hillary Clinton directly in that statement.  I have long believed that Hillary Clinton was, at best, amoral often demonstrating the character trait of immoral but with some of the newest revelations from various sources many are saying those two descriptors are insufficient and the better term is diabolical.  I will leave that to you and God to sort out but I see no evidence of integrity and certainly no shame in what has been exposed.  Instead, I hear the continual lies even when they know the truth is clear to anyone with even half-hearted honesty and objectivity.

They contradict themselves and when push comes to shove they look for a scapegoat and follow the Alinsky model to the letter in “deny, deny, deny” and “shift the focus”.  We know from leaked emails and videos that operatives for the Clinton campaign were inciting violence at Trump rallies.  Yet, they have attempted to tell us that the individuals spearheading this illegal and highly unethical activity has never been associated with the Clinton campaign and did that before they had a contract with the DNC.  Unfortunately for them, the WikiLeaks email release reveals that Democracy Partners co-founder Mike Lux sent an email in December 2015 to Center for American Progress leader Neera Tanden.  In that email, he clearly identified a connection between Democracy Partners head Robert Creamer and Clinton Campaign Manager Robby Mook.  This refutes and debunks Mook’s assertion that this all took place rogue and without their knowledge or any connection to the campaign.

The email in December 2015 stated, “Just wanted to pass along this note I sent to Bob Creamer, who as you may know is consulting for the DNC and is close to Robby Mook.”  Oops, Mr. Mook, your pants are on fire!  Mook walked back his statements slightly and said that those individuals no longer have any relationship with the DNC and never had a relationship with the Clinton campaign.  That assertion he made on October 23rd on CNN.  He then said, no matter what was on the video it was released to damage Clinton.  He did not condemn the action or even truly deny it was not with their approval only that it was released to damage Hillary.  That is how they’ve addressed WikiLeaks claiming this is the Russian Government and namely Putin trying to prevent Hillary from being President.  Rather than acknowledge accountability and take responsibility they cry “Victim” and blame, blame, blame.  That should wear thin with all Americans but the crowds they draw the most support from have the same mantra so I guess birds of a feather truly do flock together even or especially in politics.

integrity-politics

The result of the WikiLeaks revelations has caused Robert Creamer to declare that he was “stepping back” his efforts to elect Clinton after the release of the undercover, edited Project Veritas video in which Democracy Partners subcontractor described a push to incite Trump supporters to violence.  A second video has surfaced in which Creamer twice bragged that Clinton personally approved plans to place Donald Duck-suited activist at Trump rallies.  We also know that Creamer made hundreds of visits to the White House, and these emails and videos offer pretty substantial evidence of the link between his organization the inciters and the Clinton campaign and the DNC.

Hillary has lied on so many fronts and issued so many misrepresentations she exhibits traits of a pathological liar but I am afraid it is not that simple to explain but falls into the area of diabolical.  She knows she is fibbing and it is not simply to lie for the sake of lying it is designed to achieve an objective and that objective is electoral victory and control of the federal government.  She claims her plan to expand ‘background checks’ and ‘close the gun show loopholes’ will reduce gun violence in America.  She knows that there is no true ‘gun show loophole’ and that documented evidence exposes the fallacy of more stringent gun restrictions for the Law Abiding.  Criminals do not honor the law however in areas where ‘gun laws’ now on the books are enforced and severe sentences given to the perpetrators of crimes with guns, gun violence has been reduced.  Virtually every proposal she offers will damage America, reduce or Constitutional rights and liberties, increase the size and scope of the federal government and do so at an astronomical cost to the taxpayers.  DO YOU REALLY WANT THAT?

America, it is time to pray and seek God’s face not only as to whom we should vote but for the nation.  We need God’s help.  My prayer is, “LORD, please guard us, guide, us, and preserve us.  I ask that you bless America and her people again.”

God bless you and God bless America!

THE AMERICA OUR FOUNDING FATHERS FOUGHT FOR…


the-america-of-our-founders-1

I have heard the declaration from the president, the Democrats, and Hillary Clinton when someone opposes something they want to do, “That’s Not What America Is All About?”  Somehow that has effectively sent many Republicans into the shadows cowering in fear that if they firmly stand for what is right on that issue they will be negatively viewed by the public.  They misunderstand, as they have frequently, the heart and mindset of the American people but if they take a stand the media might not like them.  News Flash Republicans, the Media, and Democrats will not like you regardless of what you do short of becoming a liberal Democrat.  They only support the liberal leftist progressive statist cause and ideology and anything else, to them, is ‘not what America is all about.’

What is the America as the Founding Fathers envisioned and our Constitution prescribes all about?  What is that America?  The Founding Fathers viewed one of the critical factors in the success of the Republic a moral society, citizen representatives, and men of integrity serving in elected positions.  They considered America’s Sovereignty, her Borders, National Defense, Frugality in spending, and the right of all American citizens to keep and use their personal property as they saw fit unnegotiable guarantees.  They never sought to evict God and the Bible from all things public as is the trend today.  They wanted a clear separation of powers between the three branches of government where none of the three had unlimited power.

John Adams gave a speech to the military in 1798 sounding a clear warning, “We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion…Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people.  It is wholly inadequate for any other.”  That sentiment and view is anathema to the leftist of today and their expressed view is that NOTHING of the Bible or Christianity is allowable in our civic deliberations and decisions.  James Wilson, a signer of the Constitution and a Supreme Court Justice argued, “Human law must rest its authority ultimately upon the authority of that law which is divine…Far from being rivals or enemies, religion and law are twin sisters, friends, and mutual assistance.  Indeed, these two sciences run into each other.”  Imagine that!  Per the revisionist of today, that view should be profoundly rejected and that justice would become the target of the media and much of Congress and there is a real possibility there would be an effort to impeach them.

Robert Winthrop, served as Speaker of the House of Representatives, stated, “Men, in a word, must necessarily be controlled by either a power within them or by a power without them; either the Word of God or by the strong arm of man; either by the Bible or by the bayonet.”  Does that even remotely sound as though he and the other founders considered God, the Bible, and Christianity poisonous to civic governments?  Does it not rather sound as though the valued the moral fiber found in God and the Bible and wanted it incorporated into society and government?  Benjamin Franklin contended, “Only a virtuous people are capable of freedom.  As nations become corrupt and vicious, the need more masters.”  The Continental Congress in 1778 issued this decree, “Whereas true religion and good morals are the only solid foundations of public liberty and happiness…it is hereby earnestly recommended to the several States to take the most effectual measures for the encouragement thereof.”

the-america-of-our-founders

Today, we are faced with political candidates that embody none of those characteristics.  We have one candidate and the party that has divorced itself from God and the Bible, no longer considers the biblical position on marriage valid and places no value on the life of the unborn in the womb.  That party and candidate place less value and importance on legal American citizens and our veterans than they do on illegal immigrants and people from other nations.  That party emphasizes the rights of certain groups over the rights of everyone and fails to value the Constitution or recognize our inalienable rights.  If we contend for our rights they chide us saying, “That is not what America is all about.”  We are branded bigots, racist, suffering from some phobic condition, insensitive, uncaring, and only interested in the super-rich, not every American.  The America they desire is all powerful and, in their view, a virtual god which grants rights failing to recognize our inalienable rights.  In the words of our First President, George Washington, “Religion and morality are the essential pillars of civil society.”

Hillary, Mr. Obama, Mr. Reid, Ms. Pelosi, Donna Brazile, mainstream media, and liberal leftist, the America that our Founders envisioned and established demands that we respect the rights of all citizens.  It demands that we have a secure border and a strong national defense.  It demands that we elevate no group above other groups in society.  It demands that we are frugal in our spending.  It demands that we expect people to earn what they receive and makes no provision for the massive entitlements you seek and desire.  It demands those seeking high office demonstrate a moral fiber and character honoring the constitution.  That is what America is all about not what you seek to transform her into.

November 8th, we must decide who will entrust the reigns of our government.  This election is not a vote on individuals as much as it is a vote for Freedom and the survival of the Constitutional Republic we were given and have enjoyed.  I ask that you seriously pray and carefully consider the cost and consequences of our decision.

God, bless you and God bless America!

MAINTAINING FOCUS IS IMPERATIVE…


blog-post-3-focus

Focus is a vital ingredient in success in life, athletics, relationships, spirituality, and politics.  I fear that some of the things recently being introduced into the political mix will have the intentional or unintentional effect of causing us to lose or misdirect our focus.  Rush Limbaugh might be right that it is a ‘false flag’ and a ‘wag the dog’ type scenario for the Director of the FBI to reopen the Clinton Email Case.  It could well be a designed effort to shift the focus from the startling revelations found in the WikiLeaks releases and the problems in a Hillary Clinton presidency in multiple areas.  Regardless of the reason, WE MUST NOT LOSE FOCUS.  The future of the Republic is hanging in the balance and we dare not lose focus. 

I used to play competitive golf, participating in numerous tournaments and leagues where there was friendly but spirited competition.  I observed, often, how people would lose focus or become so singularly focused on winning they forget to focus on the shot before them and shipwrecked their own cause.  I see that in athletics where teams will be focused a few plays or series of downs and then inexplicably lose focus either because they became overconfident or thought the battle was the war and lose the game.  I have seen people in relationships lose focus and drift doing incredible damage to those relationships.  I have witnessed it in business and even in the Church where loss of focus was incredibly costly and damaging.  Focus is critical in life and politics so in 2016 with the election just days away we MUST NOT LOSE FOCUS.

blog-post-3-focus-1

One of the most revealing and frightening statements I have heard from the leftist came from Bill Maher regarding this new FBI investigation.  He said: “I don’t know what they’re going to find, and I don’t care. She’s got a server in her basement. I don’t care if she’s got JonBenét Ramsey in her basement, I’m still not voting for Donald Trump.”  That, in my view, is descriptive of how so many on the left and even some who are supposedly conservative and constitutionalist feel regarding this election.  Mr. Maher is not losing focus, he wants to STOP TRUMP and he is willing to take concede that, in his view, nothing Hillary does or has done including murder would move him from his focus to STOP DONALD TRUMP.  That is frightening!

The Left are focused on shifting the focus and, as usual, are hypocritical in their attempt.  The Clintons demonstrate the belief that LYING is not only acceptable but profitable, especially in politics.  The myriad of lies she has told on virtually everything has not gotten her booted from the race, it has often facilitated her efforts and entrenched her more in the minds and hearts of the Left as the savior of their cause.  Her aide Huma Abedin is now saying that the emails ‘magically appeared’ on the Laptop she considered her husbands.  She cannot imagine how they might have gotten there.  Could it be Ms. Abedin that you either used that computer or you gave your husband access to your email?  Either way, surely you do not think we will just sigh and say, “Oh, Well…” 

Hillary is arguing that it is ‘Unprecedented’ that the FBI would, at this stage of the political race, reopen the probe into her lawlessness and corruption.  Wait just a second.  Does anyone remember when George H.W. Bush was appearing to close the gap on Bill Clinton and suddenly a special prosecutor raised new charges against Bush in the Iran-Contra probe?  The Clintons seized on that and declared that they were running against a “culture of corruption.”  Imagine that coming from the Clintons!  Republicans then, like the Democrats now viewed the charges and probes as nothing more than a political move.  It likely cost Bush any shot at winning the election and shortly after the election the indictment was thrown out.

blog-post-3-focus-2

But be all that as it may, a real key is to ensure that WE DO NOT LOSE FOCUS in this election.  The major issues are still pertinent and possibly even more pertinent than any potential indictment and conviction of an incredibly corrupt politician in Hillary Clinton.  There is the issue of the Supreme Court which would shape America’s political future and destiny for generations if not permanently.  The issues of National Security and our Borders are still powerfully important issues.  The issue of the Economy is a pressing issue as are spending, taxes, regulations, and our constitutional rights including the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 10th amendments.  Our Religious Liberty is still a significant part of this equation and we dare not lose focus.  The pressing questions are and must remain, “What happens to America if Hillary Clinton becomes President?”  Also, “Can We Survive Four More Years of the Ideology and Agenda she embodies and will pursue?”  “What Will Happen to Our National Sovereignty?” 

America, if you have not voted I plead with you to COUNT THE COST and CONSIDER THE CONSEQUENCES of your vote.  This election is not a personality contest or a beauty contest we are voting on the FUTURE of the Republic.  We are voting on America!  Please, please DO NOT LOSE FOCUS!  Beyond, November 8th we must maintain FOCUS and work to shift the shape of Congress and move the needle to Constitutionalism in Washington.  We must remain focused on the real prize and that is THE REPUBLIC.  America is the prize and she is worth fighting for!  Will we stay focused and stay in the fight?

God bless you and God bless America is my prayer!

I VOTED FOR AMERICA – Let Me Explain…


blog-post-3-vote-for-america

I’ve listened to and read so much rhetoric, spin, and reasoning by people on both sides of the political aisle as to why they prefer Hillary Clinton to Donald Trump and find myself, at times, wonder.  Yes, wondering, for reason, history and logic seem to be missing in many, if not most of the equations.  I have heard people who say they are Republican and/or Conservatives declare that Trump needs to lose massively to preserve the Conservative movement and party. I am not sure how one arrives at the conclusion but, alas there are more than a sprinkling of those out there.  What I am going to say will award me the ‘left foot of fellowship’ from many and involve me being banned from some Social Media Groups, I’m sure.

I have already voted and am not ashamed to say that I voted against Hillary Clinton and the Leftist, Liberal, Socialist, Progressive, Statist ideology and agenda that she espouses and the Democrat Party characterizes.   No, I did not vote Third Party or Write in some obscure name, I voted for the Republican nominee Donald Trump.  If that causes you to cease listening to me, that is your choice, but let me explain why I voted that way and why I believe it is a terrible tragedy to withhold support for the Republican ticket.

To those who say they believe we might survive a Clinton administration and would be better served to have her as President than Donald Trump please answer the following questions if you will.  Do you want Obamacare as a permanent fixture or the precursor to a National Health Insurance Single Payer Program where the government makes your health care decisions?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it with Hillary Clinton.  She has guaranteed it.  Do you want Open Borders where illegals are given amnesty and a fast-track to citizenship which allows them to vote and vote as a Liberal Democrat Block?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it with Hillary Clinton.  Do you want higher taxes?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it with Hillary Clinton.  Do you want Sharia Compliant Zones in major cities in America?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it with Hillary Clinton.  Do you want stifling government regulations that cripple entire industries and a weakened economy?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it with Hillary Clinton.  Do you want an expansion of the policies of Barack Obama?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it with Hillary Clinton.  Do you want a Supreme Court that is packed with Liberal Activist Jurist who legislate from the bench, ignore the Constitution, and are a rubber stamp for the Leftist Agenda?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it with Hillary Clinton.  Do you want abortion on demand regardless of the stage in the pregnancy?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it under Hillary Clinton.  Do you want more stringent gun control laws and even gun bans?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it under Hillary Clinton.  Do you want your religious liberties to be infringed and mandated by the government when you can stand by your convictions?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it with Hillary Clinton.  Do you want to see government expanded, entitlements increased, and spending go even higher?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it with Hillary Clinton.  Do you want to cede more of our sovereign rights to the Globalist United Nations?  NO!  Well, you are going to get it with Hillary Clinton.  Minor bump in the road?  IN YOUR DREAMS!

blog-post-3-vote-for-america-2

Honestly, Donald Trump is way down on the list of reasons I voted Republican.  I do not consider him a true conservative or even conservative on many issues.  I consider him abrasive and lacking polish most of the time.  However, while I do not fully know what I will get with Donald Trump I have ZERO DOUBT what I will get with Hillary Clinton and unless you want more of the same of what we have endured for the past eight years you cannot say she would be better than Trump.  I do believe that Mr. Trump wants a restored America whereas Hillary wants a ‘transformed America’ into her Globalist Utopian image. A Total Disaster for America and Americans!  For Trump to lose massively would mean that we lose the House and Senate as well, is that something you are comfortable with in order to, as some say, ‘preserve the conservative party.’  WHAT?  There will likely be nothing left for us to aspire to if we allow Hillary Clinton to take the reins of government for the next four years or possibly eight years.  Please don’t tell me you think Hillary more moral than Trump.  I consider neither of them examples of morality.  I did not vote hoping to cast a ballot for a Moral Candidate I voted for a Cause and that Cause is THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA as the Free Constitutional Republic.  My preference on personality was suppressed in the interest of what I believe best for the Republic and I believe that STOPPING HILLARY CLINTON is the best for America.

Love me or hate me, agree or disagree with me all I ask and all I have asked from the beginning is for you to Pray about the matter, carefully consider the costs and consequences.  I ask that you try to move past any personal biases and personality preferences and honestly evaluate the incredible danger of allowing Hillary Clinton to become the 45th President of the United States of America. I believe if we do that, we will see with absolute certainty that Hillary Clinton is the worst possible thing that could happen to America.  Again, if you look at my questions you will see that Donald Trump is not my major reason for voting Republican, Hillary Clinton is!

God bless you and God bless America!

HOW MUCH HAS HILLARY CLINTON REVEALED or SOLD TO OUR ENEMIES???


blog-post-3-espionage

I am very serious and while some may discount my concerns, one of the things she did in the final presidential debate was unbelievable to me and to many of our military leaders and I’m sure was of particular interest to our enemies.  What did she say?  Among the many questionable assertions, she made while trying to make Donald Trump look like a raving lunatic who would plunge the world into a nuclear war was stunning.  She said, “There is a four-minute delay between the time the president gives the order to fire and the launching of our nukes.”   Even if our major enemies knew or thought they knew, that was a revelation to some of our lower level enemies and something that should never have been uttered by someone who will possibly be charged with the ‘football’ and our ‘nuclear arsenal.’  An old saying from WWII is appropriate, “loose lips sink ships…”  In my view, that was such a lack of thoughtful responsible judgment it should bring more than a little concern about Hillary as Commander in Chief.

Each time there is a question springing from the WikiLeaks revelations in her emails she attempts to divert the attention to the factual revelations to the Russians or some other enemy or potential enemy of the United States.  Before anyone questions whether or not I object to and condemn spying by our enemies, I must ask, “Isn’t that what enemies do?”  “Do we not spy on our enemies?”  That is cannot be a justification for her actions and those aligned with her as revealed in the emails and not a basis to discount them.  The WikiLeaks revelations are pulling back the curtain on the corruption, deviousness, and danger of a Hillary Clinton administration.  The additional question should be, “How much do our enemies know through their espionage and hacking Hillary’s emails, many of which were on a private unsecured server.”  How many secrets has she revealed?  How many things has she done to compromise her ability and ours, were she to be President, to effectively and properly deal with the outside threats?  Genuine questions and reasons to be incredibly concerned if she becomes the Commander in Chief.

The Clinton Foundation has and does receive millions if not hundreds of millions, from foreign entities, individuals, and governments that are not truly our friends and have atrocious records in human rights.  Those type people do not suddenly become philanthropic and want to reach out to their fellow man.  NO, they are always seeking to buy, influence, or gain a position of leverage.  Therefore, the question must be asked, “How much influence did they buy?”  She claims that 90% of the funds collected by the Foundation go to charitable causes but revelations and reports of independent agencies looking into this and calculating the expenditures reveal that between 5-7% actually goes to charitable causes, not 90%.  Therefore, the questionable associations of their private foundation which many deem nothing more than a ‘slush fund of corruption’ for the Clinton’s and their political machine.  That reality should give us great concern about a Hillary Clinton Administration.

What is there about Hillary Clinton that gives us a sense of assurance that under her administration we will be safer, able to combat our enemies on whatever front we face?  What is there about Hillary Clinton that gives us hope that she can resurrect our economy when she wants to pursue the policies of Barack Obama with such total commitment that they will be Obama on steroids?  What is there about Hillary Clinton that makes us think our Armed Forces will be stronger, better equipped, and allowed to function as they were designed to function?  What is there about Hillary Clinton that makes us feel our 1st and 2nd Amendment Rights will be safeguarded and protected?  Her own the record, statements, proposed agendas, and ideological stances suggest she will do the exact opposite and we will be less safe, in a worse economic condition, and find our Constitutional Rights and Liberties in jeopardy.  The Supreme Court question was asked and she NEVER answered if she believed the Constitution should be interpreted as the Framers intended.  Rather she skirted the issue and revealed an ideology that would take us in a direction for decades, if not permanently, from that which the Founders Originated and Intended.  If that is not a source of sufficient concern to reject her then I guess my words fall on deaf ears.  I fear that nothing short of a direct and divine revelation from God cause some people to truly and objectively review and evaluate the danger she poses to America.  I did not mention taxes and the unavoidable increase in spending and the debt but hope you take the words of Albert Einstein to heart, “The definition of insanity is to continue doing the same thing expecting a different result.”

America, will we entrust the reigns of our nation in the hands of Hillary Clinton knowing her corruption, demonstrated bad judgment, and views contrary to the Constitution and the intent of our Founding Fathers?  So, I only ask that on November 8 or before if you vote early, you seriously pray, examine the positions and possible results of the candidates.  If we will pray God will guide our hearts.   The cry of 2 Chronicles 7:14 must become our cornerstone once again.

God bless you and God bless America!

WHAT DIFFERENCE DOES IT MAKE?


blog-post-6-what-difference

I have some who seek to challenge my concerns that if Hillary Clinton and the liberal leftist continue in power as President and possibly reclaim the Senate and make inroads into the House of Representative that we could or will LOSE THE REPUBLIC.  Their view is that America has survived in the past and four years will make little difference.  To that assertion, I have to ask, “Have the past eight years been simply a ho-hum period or has it be incredibly detrimental to the condition, position, and future of our Republic?”  I would also ask, “Have we witnessed any erosions of our inalienable rights and constitutional liberties?”  I must ask, “Can you honestly say the past eight years are inconsequential and have not been incredibly detrimental to the Republic?”  If you can, then elect Hillary Clinton and we will all likely go down together and you can apologize later, but your apology won’t be of any value or comfort.

What difference does it make who is on the Supreme Court?  It is the difference between a rubber stamp court that enables, empowers, and expands the leftist agenda stripping us of various constitutional rights.  It is the difference in maintaining our freedom of speech, religion, and other rights or becoming subjected to an all-powerful overreaching federal government that forces political correctness upon us.  It is the difference in having a government of the people, for the people, and by the people or an oligarchy or tyranny that is dictatorial.  What difference does it make?  In my view, it makes all the difference in the world.

What difference does it make who is Commander in Chief?  It is the difference in a strong national defense, secure border, and a military capable of protecting and defending America.  It is the difference in a strong standing in the world where we are respected if not feared or both or adopting such a corrupt and inept foreign policy that our friends do not trust us and our enemies do not fear us.  It is the difference in remaining a free sovereign republic or simply a member of a world without borders where national sovereignty is a historic memory rather than a reality.  What difference does it make?  In my view, it makes all the difference in the world.

What difference does it make who controls the Senate and House of Representative?  It is the difference, or should be, in maintaining a valid and proper separation of powers in Washington and providing the constitutional ‘checks and balances.’  It makes a difference in whether our right to Freedom of Speech and Religion are maintained as inalienable rights or subjected to governmental decrees and edicts.  It makes a difference in our Right to Keep and Bear Arms and the right and ability for ‘self-defense.’  It makes a difference in the Right to Life and addressing the rights of the unborn.  It makes a difference in how we deal with the ever increasing push of Washington to become our lord and master.  What difference does it make?  In my view, it makes all the difference in the world.

If the Supreme Court were packed with liberal activist jurist the constitution would become meaningless and the leftist would have a free pathway to the “fundamental transformation” that Barack Obama has begun and Hillary Clinton has acknowledged she not only wants to continue but expand.  Can we lose the Republic because of this election?  NOT BECAUSE OF ONE ELECTION but as the result of a culmination of years of the leftist agenda to completely reinterpret and invalidate our Constitution.  YES, we can lose the Republic after this election and YES, we can lose it in four years.  Once this snowball begins rolling down the hill there will be nothing in its way to prevent it from happening short of a full blown 1776 type rebellion and resistance.  DO I WANT THAT?  No, I do not.  I want to see us restore the Republic to its constitutional status and fully believe with the history, stated policy and probable agenda and actions of Hillary Clinton and the Democrats we will see such destruction to our Republic it becomes unrepairable.  THEREFORE, call me whatever you please and accuse me of overstating my position and concerns but please at least consider the real problems faced in a Hillary Clinton presidency.

God bless you and God bless America!

SANCTIMONIOUSNESS – What Are They Protecting?


blog-post-3-hiding

 

I have hesitated for days to actually post these thoughts because I know they may be misunderstood or considered unforgivably offensive to some.  Yes, I am talking about the recent attacks on Donald Trump and the Republicans who are distancing themselves from him claiming the moral high ground.  I personally am having difficulty not viewing their actions and words as sanctimonious and wonder what is the motivation behind their actions.  Why this? Why now?

Congresswoman Kay Granger from Fort Worth said that the video of Donald Trump recently to surface was so offensive to women that she could only call for him to remove himself from the presidential race.  I carefully weighed her words and actions and wondered how she could find Donald Trump’s words more offensive than Hillary Clinton’s lies to Congress, the FBI, and the American people regarding Benghazi, her emails, Bill Clinton’s sexual escapades and Hillary’s attack on his accusers, and much more.  I wondered how Hillary Clinton’s position on partial birth abortions did not offend Ms. Granger’s moral sensibilities.  I wondered how the ongoing revelation of the dirty tricks of the Clinton camp and the Democrat Establishment to stack the deck on Bernie Sanders and the collusion with some of the debate moderators was not offensive.  I thought, Ms. Granger if you are so fragile that you would take the stance that the country was less important than some appearance of your moral stance message why don’t you resign from Congress and get out of the dirty business of politics.

NO, the language of Donald Trump is not defensible and I have never nor never will attempt to do so.  However, that is not the biggest issue in this election.  America is the biggest prize on the table.  How could anyone even remotely consider taking actions that would facilitate the ascension of Hillary Clinton to the White House and the presidency?  The stance of Congresswoman Granger, Congressman Paul Ryan, the Bushes, and countless other Republicans many declaring they will vote NO on Donald Trump or vote YES on Hillary Clinton smacks with Sanctimony for it places personal preference, egos, and grudges over the nation.  You may totally disagree and that is your God-given and Constitutional Right to do so.  But, please do not tell me that it is the only moral position you can take and somehow paint the Clinton’s as moral.  That would be offensive!  The Clinton’s are, in my opinion, beyond amoral and are immoral, unethical, diabolical, and dangerous to America and Americans.  Therefore, it is impossible for me to view any Republican who claims to be a Constitutionalist and/or conservative as taking a moral and principled stance to prevent Donald Trump from winning the election as justifiable.  There are no MORAL CANDIDATES in this presidential election and either Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton will be the next president.  That leads to the question, “Is, it moral and principled to turn the republic over to a person who espouses views that are anathema to our Constitution and Founding Father’s America?” 

blog-post-3-sanctimonious

I keep wondering, why there is so much hate toward Donald Trump that is not equally shared by Hillary Clinton by many Republicans?  What is it about a Donald Trump Presidency that makes Hillary Clinton palatable or desirable?  Why was there not a moral outrage by those Republicans, Democrats, Media, and Americans when Bill Clinton’s sexual escapades were revealed as there has been with regard to Mr. Trump?  Unfortunately, we heard, “It is his private life and therefore should not be considered.”  We also heard the argument, “Well, it’s only sex and not something significant enough to disqualify him for being president.”  Hillary lies about Benghazi and her emails and there is no outrage, on moral grounds, for her lack of ethical behavior and her character failure in those and other things.  NO, the Clinton’s are exempt, it would seem, and I cannot imagine any Republican truly believing that what Donald Trump said, as offensive as it was, is worse than the Clintons and the prospect of four more years of the destructiveness of the Obama policies.  Therefore, I can only conclude it is more than being Sanctimonious.  There is something the Establishment Politicians are hiding  and are attempting to protect and defend against.

blog-post-3-hypocrisy

When Republicans demonstrate a willingness to lose one or both Houses of Congress and the White House to keep Mr. Trump from becoming President, I ask why?   Is it their fear of the ‘ole boy system’ being dismantled?   Is it fear of losing the ability to operate in the shadows and build their empires and networks on the backs of the America people while claiming to be fighting for us?  Is it fear of losing control?  Is it fear of losing power?  Is it fear they might actually have to take a definitive stand that would enable the American people to rightly interpret their actions and intentions?  WHAT IS IT?  It is either misguidedly sanctimonious or it is diabolical and either way, America loses.  Republicans and all who love Freedom and the Constitutional Republic if you are willing to allow Hillary Clinton and the Democrats keep the White House and reclaim the Senate and possibly the House, for whatever reason, I fear you have abandoned your commitment to Conservative Principles, the people, and the Constitution.  Let me say it more nicely.  I believe you have overlooked the incredible danger and destructiveness of a Hillary Clinton Presidency!

Regardless of how disturbed I am over some of the things Mr. Trump has said and done, America is more important to me than personality.  Do I trust Donald Trump 100%?  Absolutely Not!  However, he is, in my view, our only option between the two because Hillary Clinton will pack the Supreme Court with liberal activist judges, destroy the economy, wage war on our constitutional rights, eliminate our border, weaken our military, and jeopardize our national security.  That is unacceptable to me on any level.  My moral principles are disturbed over the candidates but America’s survival and future have to take top priority to me.  Therefore, I am not voting for Donald Trump as a MORAL VOTE but a NECESSARY VOTE. 

My prayer is that America will cease allowing the media and leftist dictate how we should feel and what we should think.  My prayer is that America will cease allowing the manipulation by the leftist force us into such political correctness we ignore the real prize and objective.  I hope we have not come to the place where it is okay to sexually assault women, lie to the public, endanger national security and do harm to the republic is okay but if you use offensive words you are toast.  I am offended by Mr. Trump’s words and I am offended by the Republicans deserting the Party and I am offended by the Sanctimoniousness in this matter.  Now, I will get down off my soap box and take whatever heat comes to me for my rant.  But, know this, for me it is AMERICA FIRST and PERSONALITY LAST in the presidential election.  As always I stand for FAITH, FAMILY, and FREEDOM! 

God bless you and God bless America!

 

TOP TEN CONCERNS FOR AMERICANS IN 2016…


blog-post-4-top-ten-fears

According to a poll released by USA Today, I am stunned that Hillary Clinton could still be in the race and even leading according to most polls.  If this poll is even remotely accurate, I can only conclude that millions are not voting based on their genuine fears and concerns but along emotional or political party lines.  They are not using reason, connecting the dots, and using any semblance of cognitive judgment in their voting.  If that is the case, we are way up the proverbial creek and the stuff is too thick to paddle in.  WE ARE IN DEEP TROUBLE!

Let me give you the poll and make a few comments and you can decide for yourself which candidate would best alleviate or address these fears.  I will take the list from the number one to the number ten concerns or fears.

  1. Corruption of Government Officials (Same top fear as 2015) – 60.6%.  Imagine that.  Corruption of government officials and yet Hillary Clinton one of the most corrupt politicians of modern times is still considered the frontrunner in this election.  You cannot attribute or connect Donald Trump to the corruption presently in government because he has not been there.  He has contributed to politicians but he has not been a part of the DC Corruption but Hillary has!
  2. Terrorist Attacks – 41%.  Now, I ask which candidate has a more definitive approach to dealing with terrorism?  Hillary Clinton was part of the Obama administration that largely created the vacuum from which ISIS originated.  They weak-willed and pussy footing around the issue of Islamic Terrorism not Donald Trump’s comments has facilitated, emboldened, and often empowered terrorist.  The Iran deal has funneled huge sums that are going directly to terrorist organizations.  So, again, how are people still considering Hillary?
  3. Not Having Enough Money for the Future – 39.9%.  Amazing, Hillary wants to continue the War on Fossil Fuels, continue and increase stifling government regulations, push forward with the TPP a bad trade agreement, continue Obamacare, and increase Taxes.  That would cripple the economy and push millions more into the unemployment lines.  Trump, on the other hand, has expressed a desire to lower taxes, reduce stifling regulations, repeal Obamacare, and redo the TPP and other bad trade deals.  Yet, Hillary is still being seriously considered for President.
  4. Being a Victim of Terror – 38.5%.  How can that be, since millions are going to vote for Hillary who, along with Barack Obama tell us that the massive influx of refugees largely unvetted, an open border, and an unwillingness to address the issue.  Can’t figure that one out either.
  5. Government Restrictions on Firearms and Ammunition – 38.5%.  This is a slam dunk.  Hillary is on the record wanting more and more gun control even though she claims to be strongly in favor of the 2nd Amendment.  Her record and rhetoric do not match.  How could anyone, wanting to preserve the 2nd Amendment cast a ballot for her?  Impossible to comprehend.
  6. People I Love Dying – 38.1%.  Other than Obamacare’s impact this is not something that either candidate can alleviate.
  7. Economic or Financial Collapse – 37.5%.  If you believe in the failed policies of the Democrats that involve higher taxes and more spending, then Hillary is your Huckleberry.  However, if you understand basic economics and factual history you know that by lowering taxes across the board the economy gains impetus and becomes stronger.  Only one choice in this category and it is not Hillary.
  8. Identity Theft – 37.1%.  Hello, Life Lock.  This is a genuine concern and with Obama’s giving our control of the Internet and Hillary’s agreement and complicity, how is this not a NEVER HILLARY issue?
  9. People I Love Becoming Seriously Ill – 35.9%.  Again, other than the impact of Obamacare this is not something that either politician can address.  It is part of life.
  10. The Affordable Health Care Act – Obamacare – 35.5%.  That alone should guarantee that Hillary Clinton never becomes President.  She will not only expand Obamacare but transform it into a Single Payer System.  She said as much in the 2nd debate when she alluded to Medicare as being Single Payer.  She said, “And it is working pretty good.”  Actually, it isn’t and with the expansion of Medicaid in conjunction to Obamacare, we are burying ourselves in red tape and a cost factor we can no longer calculate.  Yet, millions will pull the lever for Hillary Clinton in November.  The very person who will guaranteed your fears are realized.  HOW CAN THAT BE?

 

Therefore, I reiterate what I said in the beginning.  If these concerns are factual and this poll is even remotely accurate, people are voting with a blind loyalty that is illogical and irrational.  They are voting based on the rhetoric, spin, and manipulation by the Media, the Leftist, Liberals, Progressives, and finding willing partners in the Republican Establishment.  America is being sold down the river because politicians want power and have no concern for America.  God help us if we cannot somehow communicate these realities to the voters.  Mr. Trump, please focus on what you will do to CHANGE what is wrong and resist the tendency to get into Twitter Wars the left continually tries to bait you with.  ARTICULATE YOUR POSITION and you can win.  I am convinced if you would or could do that, you would see a Reagan type victory because AMERICANS ARE FED UP WITH POLITICS and POLITICIANS.   This is America we are fighting for!

God help us wake up and step up.  God bless you and God bless America again is my prayer and desire!
