Good evening.
Really out of touch here with the news, but in talking with some relatives last week about the current mess we find ourselves in, and wondering how we could advance and accelerate O's fall in popularity, it occurred to us to get folks to think about their standard of living, past, present, and likely future if O & the Dems continue to run the country.
Most people get used to their habits, the things big and small they count on or would like to count on if they had more success and a little extra money in their pockets.
But...O and the Left are fond of a little, but important phrase: We Americans consume too much of the world's resources.
Now what exactly do they mean by that??? Hmmm.....Could it, could it just mean we should have less money to spend, do without the "extras" we like to have??? Depend on the government to make the choices for us???
Is that what the Left means?? Is that what the American public really wants???
Is that the Hope and Change O promised???
Please post your comments, news, opinions with taste and decorum ;-))
Yes and yes.
Is that what the Left means??Yes.
Is that what the American public really wants???
"Baaaaa, where's the closest public tit? baaaaa...."(/sheeple imitation)
Is that the Hope and Change O promised???
Yes, indeed, to anybody not blinded by the cynicism of liberalism and with two brain cells to rattle together.

Oh my....chocoholics look out!
Good morning!
I thought I smelled chocolate !!!!!!! :) :) :) Good morning!
Good morning!
Molly, now that you mention it, I do remember you posting about your previous mininster and your thoughts about collective salvation.
Almost time to fix me ‘sumtin ta eat’, have plenty of eggs, no bread for toast, lots and lots of grits and a couple slices of cheese, maybe a couple over the latter will do.
lysie, the kids have found my hiding place for my candy I keep for them, all three of us had a ‘meeting of the minds’
yesterday, they promised to be honest with me and stay out of the stash. Got to keep a promise I made with them, stock more tasty drinks for them in the fridge. Looked like a board meeting as they sat on the floor and me in my chair, cute as bugs on a peach.

We had Tstorms last night. They may continue throughout the day.
Our a.c. which wasn't working it seemed like, is now producing enough cold air, and the repairman's scheduled to appear this a.m....oh well...may be best to check it out.
Byron York talking golf on Bennett's show...for starters....I'm sure it'll get better :-))
I have got to get to Walmart, kids going camping (in a travel trailer) next week and out of most everything. I am not going, like my ‘shack in the back’ and MY bed, funny how a person gets in love with their bed.
lysie, watching the boys grow, seems like so fast. learning to swim (the little one) and loves it. Got to get my baseball glove out and start teaching them how to play catch, etc.... want them to get them a BB gun but momma won't let me....yet, I am working on it being we live in the country and want to teach them to hunt....small things like bears, tigers, lions, you know what I am talking about.

The coming crusade Ralph Peters on rising Christian population in Africa, etc...
However, I am alarmed by the rise of islam. While I agree that Christianity is on the rise in many, many countries, I also have seen that islam is on the rise, too. I think this is largely in part of the failure of Christians to evangelize and present the forgiveness available to all in Jesus.
Brothers and Sisters, it isn't enough to live the Christian life, i.e. "walk the walk. You must also "talk the talk." It is akin to seeing a drowning person and jumping in the river to demonstrate how to swim. We have been given the duty to haul the drowner out of the river, to save them, and then to teach them how to swim so it won't happen again.
In plain english, some people cannot just watch our lives and see the way to Jesus. They must be told and taught. Evangelize vocally and live your lives at the same time in such a way that others give glory to God, the Father.
Back to islam, we must evangelize them, also. They need Christ and that is the only way their murderous belief can be stopped. To repeat a cliche, if not us, who? If not now, when?
THANK YOU!!! More should be spoken of this....
That reminds me...are you familiar with D.A. Carson? I've ordered and will soon be reading a book of his about spiritual reformation.
And that further reminds me that the church which I found 14 months ago and joined in Dec. has most probably found its new minister. The head of the search committee gave a report to the congregation yesterday announcing the news, explaining the procedures and events we'll be following in the days ahead, and it was so intentional and faith -full ..the news so welcome and needed... that I started to cry.
This congregation has been thru a lot, separating from a mainline church recently to remain true to doctrine and God's way.
Praise the Lord for the new pastor. It is hard, almost impossible, for a congregation to remain intact during a prolonged pastoral search. I am very happy for you.
No, I’m not familiar with D.A. Carson. I’m out of touch with so many trends. I’ve just now learned of a “new” pastor within our denomination, but he has written many best-sellers. It is obvious that the only person for whom he is new is me! I really need to get out more.
Jem, Jem, why did you post those yummies. I LUUUUV chocolate. Now I’ll probably make those. Then I’ll have to give most away, cause of my Atkins.
