Questions ??????

How many times have we ever just sat back and watched the world go by and it make your head spin?
How many times have we just sat back and wished we could do something productive that others would appreciate?
How many times can we look back in our lives and feel accomplished at the end of the day?
How many times do we sit back and think about if I had to do things over again we'd go back and change a few things in our past?

Can we look back and remember the first A we got on a project we did totally on our on and to feel that rush of satisfaction. Or remember back at the first time you kissed the guy/girl you'd been trying all through school to get and you finally got him/her and your heart just melted inside of you. These are a few things that we face in our everyday life, and yes only a few of them. We didn't mention graduation day from high school or the college you were accepted to, we haven't mentioned the first job you ever had. What about the first car you ever had, maybe it wasn't the one you wanted, but all together it was a ride and it was all yours. But life moves on from high school and college.

There are things that happen to young and old alike all throughout life. Life to some can be a fantasy world. There are those who meet the love of their lives and marry and live together happily ever after for the rest of their lives. That alone is one of the greatest accomplishments. But then again there are those who find love and seem to be happy until troubled waters arise then happiness becomes devastating. But, never give up there is someone for everyone out there. Can you remember that first fling? Was it love or just puppy love. There are so many scenarios out there that we go through from the cradle to the grave.

There are so many times in our lives that we have looked back and said if I could go back 20 years I'd change a lot of things in our lives, then you have them who look back just to say I wouldn't change a thing. (That is when you truly know your are content with your life.) But there are folks like me at 50 going on 51 that if I were to go back (and 20 years wouldn't help), changing anything, lol.... Again we say there are a lot of different scenarios out there we haven't touched on yet. I know a few people who become devastated not being able to have children, to some that's grounds for divorce so they can find someone who can produce.

Then you have those out there who have hearts bigger than the world that would gladly adopt a child and take them into their life and make them their own. Then there are men and women like my wife, who could not have kids of her own, but gladly and happily took on the role as a mom, and grandma to kids who were not even her own. She has 2 sons and 4 daughters and 9 grandkids and hope I didn't miss any. (plus many more that call her mom and grandma).

But we spoke of something earlier in this blog that happens in our lives from the cradle to the grave. This is a 2 part blog hoping to keep them shorter. Stay tuned to page 2 of this blog.

Save face Obama do something productive.

Here I am again with another beach about the world and the way things are going. If I am not mistaken I remember vaguely that the President 's campaign speeches consisted of creating more Jobs for the American people, fixing the economy and thus and thus and thus and so on, Well America has given him high marks for his first 100 days in office. Well, I say its a bunch of hogwash, or should I go ahead and say bullshit. He has shown what he's all about. I myself believe, (and this is just my beliefs), that you could go down to the poorest part of the Bronx or out to some of the tent cities set up by homeless folk, or even go to some soup kitchen anywhere, to the poor and in general even middle class and find someone who could of done a better job their first 100 days than the President has done in his. And why is this? Well give it a thought, they all have something in common.

I am not an authority on this but have noticed that people who are supposed to have come from a poor, horrible, down trodden background who seems to come not only into the money, but also power have a tendency to forget where they come from and who they were at one time. I applaud anyone who can turn their life around and make something of it, but when you get to level of the President of the United States and beyond and you begin by saying your going to do something, save face and do it! All throughout his campaign all we heard was change you can believe in, and we can really see the change. NOT A FRIGGEN' BIT. Hey Obama save our American automakers please, screw Fiat. Please dont sell them down the river. You do not have the power to save the world but save the most important things, America.

Let's see some of the things that was done in his first 100 days: He set a time table for troop withdrawl from Iraq. That's sorta good I guess, all depends who wins once we leave. We all know, or anyone with common sense knows, there ain't an Arab or Muslim that cares for the United States. WE ARE, IN THEIR EYES, THE GREAT SATAN, and also that we stand beside ISRAEL 100% RIGHT NOW , BUT LOOK FOR THAT, MAYBE THAT TO WILL CHANGE. IF we sell out Israel all hell will break out. Let me show you a passage of scripture that is sorta of unnerving.

Luke 21: 20&26-28---[20] And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. 26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. 27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draws nigh.

Friends it's a scary thing to start making packs with and wanting to sleep with the devil. China, Pakistan, Iran, Palestine, Lebanon, and every other country that doesn't care for us, maybe I shouldn't word it like that but how else would you say it? The bible plainly tells us that when we see Israel compass with armies the time has started. But that's just half the gripe. Just last week OUR illustrious Obama got together with the leaders of Pakistan and Afghanistan and agreed to fight against the Taliban and then not even 3 or 4 days later we're accused of killing innocent civilians, and also using white phosphorus, which is an agent that is used for illumination and marking targets and yes it does cause severe burns once it touches the skin. I seem to believe that the United States has better sense then to use such stuff against civilians but we are always accused of doing things we don't and also targeting civilian targets, and if it is found out we did I will apologize.

This is another one of my opinions: We have a bomb that is just setting idle called the MOAB, but then again we have a bomb even larger then that, that we could pull out and show the TALIBAN, WE'RE tired of screwing with them, and to either surrender or die in the process. If we don't do something soon we are never going to get ahead over there. Back to IRAQ, maybe we shouldn't have ever went over there and started this war and let Saddam continue to kill his own people and rule his own little world. I do have to say that every time we read or hear something from there that things are looking up and they can rule themselves and then a few days later, ain't nothing going right, the police and military aint up to par. So what do we do about IRAQ, WELL HELL I DONT KNOW, WHO DOES. We could just pull all our troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan and let them fend for themselves, fortify our own borders and wait for them to come get us again then take care of them. All this is my opinion. I've aired everything I have to say at this time so now I HAVE TO SAY UNTIL NEXT TIME.

Good Morning America Let's Wake Up

GOOD MORNING AMERICA

Good morning America how are you this morning, the thing I will begin with is this, that opinions are like butt holes everyone has one, and it seems to be true cause I have one to (a butt hole) and I have a opinion. I have come to grips with the idea that we can talk about everything that's going on in the world and that the people who should be listening to us don't give a rats ass about the American people at all. We elect men and women into office to do a job and to work for the American people not for the lobbyist or big money. It really doesn't matter who it is, whether it be the President or down to the Senate or Congress, people just don't do what they say when elected. Hell they can't even have the balls to stand up for their constituents. GOOD MORNING AMERICA, lets wake up.
Let's take Mr Arlen Specter, for example, a Republican all these years then all of a sudden switches sides, now he's a Bonified Democrat, and on top of that they gave him a special seat on their side of the floor, what ever they call the damn place. Well to me he is nothing other than a modern day Benedict Arnold. Friends, please don't take this wrong I'M NOT DISSING ANYONE or JUDGING ANY PERSON WHO IS THIS WAY, its not my place to. But that would be like waking up one morning and realizing after 25 years of marriage or 50 years of living and finding out that maybe all those years there was something in your life that wasn't right, and come to find out you like men instead of women and you liked women instead of men, making it short you are gay. Wow I've never been through that, but wouldn't that really be a kick in the gonads? (NUTS)

You know it is people, all of us, not just one, who elects these people into office and we should have the say what goes and doesn't go. I think for the first time in modern history, everyone from ever race in American should put all their differences aside, whether you be red, yellow, black, white, brown, tan in color and march upon Washington and show them that we as Americans have had enough of the political bullshit and we ain't gonna take it no more, then maybe, just maybe, we could open some eyes to the realization that we ain't playing politics anymore. Now please remember these are my opinions. There must be a way that we can get through to the elected officials we ain't playing their games no more. WE as Americans have some pretty good ideas on how we can fix things if they would just listen to us. Right? I'll answer that, RIGHT. Good Morning Again.

What our elected officials are saying to us by not listening to us, is that this ain't Burger King you can't have it your way. Well how soon do they forget the Boston tea party, the freedom fight with the British. Let us bare up our voices and not our weapons and march on the Capital in Washington and see just what might happen. If we can put the fear of GOD and LET OUR VOICES BE HEARD they just MIGHT DO WHAT WE ASK FOR A CHANGE let us STAND AS ONE NATION. It couldn't hurt anything. I have read over a hundred articles from folks just like us down to journalist who feels the very same way we do, so what are we waiting on? Sorry to say this but the piddly little TEA (or Taxed Enough Already) picketing was just a joke to them. Why do I say that? Well have we heard anything that came out of it? HELL NO. All the politicians did was laugh at all that stood up. Friends it will take more than just a few people standing with signs with TEA on them. Good Morning America it's time we wake up.

There was an e-mail recieved from a very dear friend of mind and it made some pretty good sense, but what sounds good to us is a joke to them. The e-mail goes like this:
This is from an article in the St. Petersburg Times Newspaper on Sunday.
The Business Section asked readers for ideas on "How Would You Fix the Economy?" I think this guy nailed it!



Dear Mr. President,

Please find below my suggestion for fixing America's economy. Instead of giving billions of dollars to companies that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan. You can call it the Patriotic Retirement Plan:

There are about 40 million people over 50 in the work force. - Pay them $1 million apiece severance for early retirement with the following stipulations: 1) They MUST retire. Forty million job openings - unemployment fixed. 2) They MUST buy a new American CAR. Forty million cars ordered - Auto Industry fixed. 3) They MUST either buy a house or pay off their mortgage - Housing Crisis fixed.


It can't get any easier than that!

P.S. If more money is needed, have all members in Congress and their constituents pay their taxes...

If you think this would work, please forward to everyone you know. If not, please disregard.

Well friends what better way for me to forward this than to put into this blog so everyone would have a chance to read it. It really does sound like a good plan, BUT I guess the the President probably doesn't twitter or blog so he'll never see this but we will. Hopefully some one in a high places will see, and pass it on. Well I was told by someone on link referral that my blogs should be 2, 3 or 4 pages long because I put to much on 1 page, so if that is so please let me know and I'LL TRY AND keep my blogs to 2 or 3 sentences ok. Good evening America


Well so long for now, thanks again jessebs
Shalom and Peace to Israel.

Only in a America, Is not America no more.

Good morning, America

Wow, what other country can you wake up to the sound of freight trains shaking your pictures off the wall, the sounds of sirens and not knowing if its an ambulance, fire truck, or police. You can see the sun coming up greeting another beautiful day. You can see a school bus driver stuck in a traffic jam driving down a freeway in L.A, or drive on IH-35 N. from Texas to Missouri, take a ride on a quiet country road in Idaho. Wow, ain't it great knowing you were born in one of the greatest countries there is. The United States of America. Oh how sweet it is.

Did anyone out there know that this very land our feet stands on, or our head lays on was founded, upon a foundation of Biblical principles and standards? Freedom to worship, freedom of speech, rights to what is yours is yours. That your house is your haven. That your family is your family, your property is your property, your gun, your rifle is yours. And that you as an American citizen have the right to stand up for what is yours? Well America, that's the way it once was, once upon a fairy tale, when American was young. Back when everything was plentiful. Back before men began to forget what the Constitution of the United States stood for. Its a very small but big word, and has only 7 letters. F-R-E-E-D-O-M !

I guess freedom began to fizzle in the early 1800's when one of our very well known fore-fathers, Thomas Jefferson, called the Bible nothing more than dung, and took a pair of scissors to it, but wait he was atheist, along with many of his group of colleagues, and were only thought to be (Christian's) because that's how and what the times were like back then. So have we really never had religious freedom at all? Some would say yes we have, but even more will say no. Thinking briefly about prayer in schools, how many thought that when Madayln Murry O'Hare petitioned the Supreme Court she would win? She did win the case of removing prayer from schools and started the movement of removing God from all places. I guess people must have thought to themselves that it was the beginning of the end. But this wasn't even the first case of Church vs State, lets look you can see for yourselves.

"There is no such source and cause of strife, quarrel, fights, malignant opposition, persecution, and war, and all evil in the state, as religion. Let it once enter our civil affairs, our government would soon be destroyed. Let it once enter our common schools, they would be destroyed."

- Supreme Court of Wisconsin, Weiss v. District Board, March 18, 1890

"Leave the matter of religion to the family altar, the church, and the private school, supported entirely by private contributions. Keep the church and state forever separate."

- Ulysses S. Grant, "The President's Speech at Des Moines" (1875)

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof."

- First Amendment, Bill of Rights, U.S. Constitution

Thomas Jefferson, author of the sweeping Virginia Statute of Religious Freedom, stating that no citizen "shall be compelled to frequent or support any religious worship, place, or ministry whatsoever..." and that to "compell a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of [religious] opinions which he disbelieves is sinful and tyrannical."

- President Thomas Jefferson, 1802 letter to the Baptists of Danbury, Connecticut

The Supreme Court Cases Opposing Religious Worship in Schools

McCollum v. Board of Education, 333 U.S. 203, 212 (1948).

Struck down religious instruction in public schools. The case involved school-sponsored religious instruction in which the sole nonreligious student, Jim McCollum, was placed in detention and persecuted by schoolmates in Champaign, Illinois.

Tudor v. Board of Education of Rutherford, 14 J.N. 31 (1953), cert. denied 348 U.S. 816 (1954).

Let stand a lower court ruling that the practice of allowing volunteers to distribute Gideon Bibles at public school was unconstitutional.

Engel v. Vitale, 370 U.S. 421 (1962).

Declared prayers in public school unconstitutional.

Abington Township School District v. Schempp, 374. U.S. 203 (1963).

Declared unconstitutional devotional Bible reading and recitation of the Lord's Prayer in public schools.

Epperson v. Arkansas, 393 U.S., 97, 104 (1968).

Struck down state law forbidding schools to teach the science of evolution.

Stone v. Graham, 449 U.S. 39 (1980).

Declared unconstitutional the posting of the Ten Commandments in classrooms.

Wallace v. Jaffree, 472 U.S. 38, 72 (1985).

Overturned law requiring daily "period of silence not to exceed one minute... for meditation or daily prayer."

Jager v. Douglas County School District, 862 F.2d 824 (11th Cir.), Cert. den. 490 U.S. 1090 (1989).

Let stand a lower court ruling in Georgia that pre-game invocations at high school football games are unconstitutional.

Lee v. Weisman, 120 L.E. 2d 467/ 112 S.C.T. 2649 (1992).

Ruled prayers at public school graduations an impermissible establishment of religion.

Berger v. Rensselaer, 982 F.2d, 1160 (7th Cir.) Cert. denied. 124 L.E. 2d 254 (1993).

Let stand ruling barring access to Gideons to pass out Bibles in Indiana schools.

Santa Fe Independent School District v. Doe, 530 U.S. 290 (2000).

Barred student-led prayers at public school functions.

Have you ever really thought about this? How we cannot stand up in a pulpit and talk about the Government, without them wanting to audit, pull your tax exempt status, and close your doors. Before you can start a legal, tithe receiving Church organization, you have tell them what your beliefs are and what your Church doctrine is, and how it will be set up, BEFORE, you will be approved to become tax exempt status with WHO, none other than THE State Government.

SO see the fight for prayer in school is just one of the things that will always be an endless battle that should be left a sleeping dog . ( pst ) Do you really think God worries about prayer in schools or colleges around the world? I think not. That is the least of His worries. He get millions of prayers a day from children and students alike from around the world saying God help me with this test I'm about to take. Lord Jesus help me make it through the day that I can live up to my abilities. You see they didn't stop prayer in schools. ALL they did was just silence the voices of those who would have prayed out loud. Parents keep teaching your children to pray.

Then there's the right to bare arms, guns, rifles, knives and such that we now have to register and wait for back ground checks to even get a permit to carry. I don't own a gun, my wife won't let me have one (joke). It takes 30, 60, 90 or more days to receive a permit, if you even get approved. Many don't and won't. It bothers me that it is easier for a convicted felon, one day out of prison, to get a gun than a law abiding citizen who just wants to protect their home, family, and possessions. I truly believe in the saying that guns don't kill people, people kill people.

Now they say they may take our right to drive what we want to drive. Mr. President, Congressmen, Senators, before you take our Z-71's, our Ford F-250's or our Dodge quad cabs, consider this; you want to rid our dependence on foreign oil or go green by building more electric cars or trucks, help the O-Zone, save the rain forest, etc. but before you take or even think about taking our trucks and cars, try driving yourself and your foreign dignitaries around in a Yugo. Or, the next time you wanna fly on a surprise trip to Iraq or Afghanistan, or to see the King of Spain, (let's make the list short), anywhere in the Middle East, instead of taking Air Force 1, 2 or 3, (how ever many there may be), try taking a Cessna 303, single engine plane, to save the tax payers money and fuel. Fix what needs fixed and leave the people of America alone while fixing it.

I along with nearly over 303,824,650 people in the United States want change. Mr. President, here are some ways I believe you can help change America, please consider your promise was change. So what are you gonna change? Cut taxes: You already talking increasing them. Create more jobs: you're already cutting jobs. It doesn't take 4, 8, to 10 or more years to fix health care. JUST fix it. You're the Commander & Chief, stand up and be bold, have some balls. Tell the House and Senate this is what you want, then do it! Instead of having to have your press secretary stand before a camera and tell America, "well the measure didn't pass the House and won't make it to the Senate", ( health care), "we'll keep on trying". (Famous words). Next the economy, humm tough subject, go up on Capital Hill, take a good long look, I mean a good longgggggg look. See all the Lobbyist, and the special interest groups hanging around, the big oil companies, the big Energy companies, gas , light, in other words , helllo the Utility companies, they can't be that hard to see. Now be a Man and take that #13 size shoe you wear an boot their butts out of Washington. And while their leaving, have them leave a billion or two dollars in the hat for the economy and American people, and say don't ya come back NO MO NO MO NO MO NO MO, (as the song goes). Now when Washington starts doing what their elected to do, what the people want, then America will be just a hair closer to what she once was. And, before you try to extend the Presidential Term of Office, spend the next eight years proving you or any other President deserves more time.

They can stimulate the economy with their piss poor stimulus checks, lol, then turn right around and charge you taxes on it. Lol, wow their stimulating right before they rape ya again. The way to fix the economy is by, first give back to the people, if the middle class on down to the lower class that works their lives away every day or year, and still owe taxes, and owe more than $25,000, forgive that debt, the Federal Reserve and the World Bank wont miss it. Their not even American owned. Then your next step should be to regulate, regulate, regulate, Banks, Savings and Loan companies, Gas and Oil, Natural Gas and Energy. You may not last to long as President, but neither did Abraham Lincoln or John.F. Kennedy when they stood against them. You're the man of change, well don't just change it, fix it! If that's too tall of an order, resign with Honor, you promised change. THIS would be change.

MAKE AMERICA PROUD AGAIN.

Bring our troops home and fortify our boundaries. Help America FIRST, then help only those who help US, Our ALLIES, Great Britian, and Israel, our True Brothers in Arms.

Sholoam and peace to ISRAEL.
