Won’t happen until Christ cleans up at the literal Armageddon.

. . . which is looming closer . . . though to be preceded by 7 years of hell on earth, first.

Sure, three sixes embedded in the center!

But it will billed as three 9's so as to not cause alarm. and to make it handy for people with out pockets lets just inscribe this card on our foreheads, yeah that's a good idea. /sarc
Scary times we are living in.

I don’t think so.

I don’t think OThuga is the real AC . . . just an also ran forerunner preparing the way.

I think the real bloke will be overtly crowned or revealed on the world stage at the beginning of the 7 years.

OThuga has too much baggage, is too stupid, too clumsy etc. etc. to fill the role.

No way can OThuga convince the Jews that HE is their true MESSIAH.

. . . just . . . imho . . .

If OThuga were to suffer a serious Biblical wound and display a miraculous resurrection live on prime time, I might have to reconsider.

You must develop a plan to destroy tyrants. When tyrants are disallowed and extinguished tyranny will abate

The two problems should not be linked. you should not stop a heartbeat to relieve bleeding

Trouble is, the tyrannical nature is in the heart of man.

. . . until . . .

THE RETURN OF THE KING . . . WHEN HE writes HIS law on our hearts.

And when they are returned to wherever they came from, they should have a deep RFID implant so they set off border alarms when they try to sneak back in.


I have no problem RFID or chipping the Illegal Aliens that are deported.....they are the ones breaking American law....and will break it some more

But, as much as the pro-illegal/anti-American crowd wants to force Americans to carry a nat’l ID card.....the same ones will biatch if we did anything like that to the Illegal Alien lawbreakers.....it will be the Graham/McCain crowd, the Liberal Media, the La Raza/Hispanic Ku Klux Klan crowd that will whine if those tactics are used on Illegals.....of course, they support such for American citizens

“I still think the cure is worse than the disease.”

Congress is also pushing through piecemeal legislation while we’re not looking by way of ‘Ag jobs’.

UFW, growers push for path to citizenship for undocumented farmworkers
BY COURTENAY EDELHART, Californian staff writer
cedelhart@bakersfield.com | Monday, Mar 08 2010 05:34 PM

Supporters of immigration reform are making another push to pass a
congressional bill that would give undocumented farm workers a path to
permanent residency and ultimately citizenship.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein is the sponsor of the AgJobs bill in the Senate, and
representatives Howard Berman, D-Van Nuys, Calif., and Adam Putnam,
R-Bartow, Fla., are backing it in the House.

“We’ve been close to getting it passed for years, but we feel like this is
really the year to do it,” Arturo Rodriguez, president of United Farm
Workers of America, told The Californian’s editorial board Monday.

The cause has united farm labor advocates and agricultural interests,
groups that in the past have lobbied on opposite sides. But this is one
issue the longtime rivals strongly agree on.

“To the credit of the UFW, they’ve gone to their traditional allies and
said, ‘We have a window, here, we can’t waste it waiting for the perfect
bill,’” said Bryan Little, director of labor affairs for the California
Farm Bureau.

That window is a president and congressional leadership that want to
reform an immigration policy that isn’t working.

“UFW is working on their people, and we’re working on the people we can
bring to the table, generally Republicans,” Little said. “That’s not to
say it will be easy, but we’re trying to do everything we can to make
folks understand that we’ve got to do something.”

The proposal would allow illegal immigrants who have worked in agriculture
for at least two years to get a new “blue card” that would give them
temporary permanent resident status if they commit to continue working in
agriculture for another three years.

During that time, their spouse and children would also be eligible to work
in the United States, and they would be able to travel freely between the
United States and their home country.

After their years of service in agriculture, they would be able to apply
for a green card and permanent resident status, but only after paying a
fine of $500, showing that they are current on their taxes and passing a
criminal background check.

The United States hasn’t created an amnesty program for undocumented
immigrants to legalize their status since 1986.

Subsequent efforts to do so have been met with heavy resistance from those
who say it rewards people who have entered the country illegally.

Moreover, with a massive federal deficit and an unemployment rate of 9.7
percent, the last thing the country needs is millions of low-skill,
low-wage workers who would depend heavily on government services, said Ira
Mehlman, spokesman for the conservative Federation for American
Immigration Reform.

“There’s no evidence of any sort of labor shortage,” Mehlman said. “If
there were, farm worker wages would be through the roof, but there
continues to be high unemployment among farm laborers.”

Plus, he said, the last amnesty did nothing to help growers. “As soon as
they got their green cards, they got out of agriculture and took jobs in
other sectors of the economy because they pay better,” Mehlman said.

Rodriguez said it’s in everyone’s best interest for a broken system to
change, because for the first time, the United States is importing more
food than it’s exporting.

“That doesn’t help growers, it doesn’t help farm workers and it doesn’t
help consumers,” he said. “It’s very hard to control pesticides, how
workers are treated and food safety when food is produced overseas.”

What is our alternative?

1. Stop "entitlements". Stop the handouts, and people will stop coming to collect them. Remember Boone: "not yours to give".

2. Secure the border. We have troops for that purpose, use them on OUR borders, not on other continents.

3. Let states handle the issue. NY does a fine job of voter verification by comparing signatures. No need for a uniform easily-abused national final solution.

4. Deport. Find 'em, send 'em home. After a prolonged stay at the Graybar Hotel first.

5. Stop compelling businesses to solve the problem. They're in their own business, not the Border Patrol business.

He didn’t bring up the National ID, just the immigration thing. Graham said if they push healthcare through using reconciliation, the immigration thing is dead. Graham also said that this administration is not protecting our borders. So some stuff he says makes sense, other actions though, like this, are ludicrous.

I agree. They are costing tons to our system, I don't care how much it costs to send them packing.

READ THEIR GOALS HERE:

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/religion/2130557/posts?page=81#81

THEY WILL NOT

tolerate any of those patriotic things.

They are in a literal rush—in the opposite direction—literally to hell.

They have the power.
They have the money.
They have the technology to enforce their will.
They have the demonic assistants.
They are led by the king of hell.

literally.

Ah, so we’re doing the impossible right now? Yes, they can be identified & deported without a National ID; happens every day.

Now, what happens when YOU don’t have your NID with you? “Papers, please” leads to “oh, you don’t have one? well, that’s presumptive evidence that you’re an ‘illegal’, so we’re going to toss you in a cage until you can find yours.” Haven’t read much history, eh? National IDs become a license to exist, an internal passport, the official version of you. Harassing 100 people just to identify 1 (who won’t be cooperating anyway) leads to oppression of the 99, as you’ve just made it really easy for would-be tyrants to track, indict, and prosecute everyone for darn near everything.

You want a National ID.
I don’t.
Who’s willing to push harder? Guess.
