I am a person who likes to talk about a little of everything whether it's love, JESUS, the federal reserve to automobiles. Anything goes, that's my motto.

What are they thinking ????

Another daily gripe
I remember reading back in the 30's or 40's that when the stock market crashed that there was al ot of folks who committed suicide. and how it must at that time been pretty tragic to a lot of families, businesses closing down, the folks who had every thing they had invested, that lost everything. The only thing I really can't figure out is how many years did it take for things to bounce back to almost a 50/50 % society. ( what I mean is how long did it take for the Americas to recover from what had happened?) As of May the 8Th 2009, the jobless rate jumped to 8.9%. which multiplies out to a a lot of Americans are still out of work, and the way things are still heading it will reach the forecasted level of 10.9 % by the end of the year.
I have noticed also that the price of gas here in McAlester, Oklahoma has jumped 17 or more cents per gallon in 2 days, heck tomorrow it may be up a dollar. Just this morning I was reading on Msnbc where home foreclosures are still on the rise it said it had jumped 32 % and at least 342,000 people received at least 1 foreclosure notice in April. I was sitting here just now a question popped into my mind, wasn't the economic stimulus package in the past supposed to go to troubled banks to help with the trouble housing market, to buy up all the bad debt, so bank could start lending again? Was it not supposed to help us Americans buy up the bad debt, and mortgage our Grand kids future, so that thing will be better now than then?
I read an article earlier this year where one of the big wigs in Washington said that those who pay their mortgages on time should be treated differently than those who don't. Well I can understand that to a point. But I believe that things happen such as job loss, layoffs, sickness, and yes circumstances beyond mans control, hurts our ability to stay up to par on things such as financial obligations. I didn't read the article but seen the head line where foreclosure had hit the wealthy. I feel for all people who have to go through such a thing, but it is also good to see that it can happen to other than the little people.
Then we have the Automotive Industry that is in the saddest shape ever, It seems to me that the Obama auto task force that he assembled is taking its toll on the industry by setting deadlines for them to follow the receive bailout money. The question that is stuck in my mind is, Is Obama trying to destroy American a little at a time? Sure seems that way to me. The slogan he used to win his campaign, "No taxes and creating more jobs". I knew when I would hear his slick talking to anyone who would listen to him in all his town hall meeting says, we are all about change. WELL THEN OBAMA MAKE SOME CHANGES FOR THE GOOD.I mentioned 2 paragraphs up about how GAS had rose 17 cents in to days, well here we go again,
We can't build new cars because the market just isn't favorable for it, we can't buy new houses because they're not worth what you have to pay for one. we cant afford mortgages, we cant buy new cars because everyone has a fear anymore that the warranty on it wont be covered, and all these are legitimate worries. But the way I see it is from what I read the stock market is so up and down people are scared to do much of anything there anymore, but I can see one thing they seem not to worry about and that is crude oil prices or raising electric bills and natural gas, heating oil all continue to raise. WE can't buy a car or build them, cant buy a house or pay a mortgage, but our Government will let them milk us out of what little we have left. Through the rising cost of utilities.
Friend I write these articles to get peoples opinions and feed back on how they think things are going or should be, so feel free to comment and leave an opinion at any time and if there is a blog, that I have wrote earlier go back and read them also and comment. That will be fine with me.
So til next time

Save face Obama do something productive.
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.
thanks jessebs

Good Morning America Let's Wake Up
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.

My daily gripe
I believe that if the Feds were to call the shots in the states that sell out, then all they would need is a receivership to handle the states, just like when you file for chapter 13 bankruptcy. By listening and reading about this mess it brought a Biblical scripture to mind, and I keep trying not to use biblical scripture in all my blogs by I seem to not be able to get around it.
Revelations 13 :16-17 [16] And he caused all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:[17] And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. The scripture is pretty self explanatory. Now don't get me wrong, I am not saying that Obama is the anti-Christ in anyway, but when he begins to try and call the shots there is definitely something strange about it. As I see it, we are becoming less of a democratic group of United States and more of a communist group of states.
Their agenda already is to take all parental control away except for the feeding and clothing of our kids, and they will control the rest. The Governor of my home state addressed the nation when he stood behind a microphone and begin to talk about the Obama administration wants to come down here and tell us how to run our state. Well, to the Governor of my home state of Texas, I applaud you for standing up for something that isn't right. I believe my home state as well as any other state can survive with the right people in office. Maybe all of us in each state need to go back and look at our elected officials from every state and really examine every thing they've done since taking office and see if they are really doing what they said they would do when elected or are they a bunch of yes men and women.
I can say that living now here in Oklahoma, we have several Senators and congressmen that I really can't see a thing they have done, other than help the McAlester Army ammo plant stay up and running and keep their funding coming in. Other than that, our towns are still the same hasn't any thing changed as far as economics, growth, or anything else, that would cause the state to flourish. I realize that corruption and scandal is everywhere but this is the capital, and the buddy system will always be in affect here no matter what or who takes office. I guess it's because the people here have always been shit on and have become accustomed to it. Oh did I mention that the Obama Federal stimulus package to this city which was either a little over or under $3,000,000,00 for roads and bridges made front page news here. Heck friends that wont even begin to fix the shitty bumpy cratered roads we have here. It was just sickening, the cities mayor and city manager looked like a couple of Cheshire cats on the front page, sickening. A lot of extra money will be found in their pockets, and I know that sounds critical but the truth. Well as I wind down my gripe for the day, maybe we need to look a little closer at the things that our Government is doing to us . Well again I say thanks for listening.

Thanks America
I already know from reading on here that a lot of people put a lot of stock in what other people read and write as prophecy. As example, we can go back to the days of Jim Jones, the koolade man, or David Koresh, the Waco dude. I was reading on the internet and there are thousands of people out there prophesying and babbling and going on. I can see why folks do the things they do and act the way they do. I am not saying that people who prophecy are wrong. But from My understanding of the Bible, there is predicting and prophesying, but there are differences in Apostles and prophets. Just as there is a difference in the church between speaking in tongues and tongues and interpretation.
First of all prophesy is to predict or reveal through or as if through, divine inspiration. Predict is to make a prediction about; tell in advance, indicate by signs. Prophets of old such as Isaiah, Ezekiel, Jeremiah, Joel, Hosea and the others were prophets of God. They foretold of things that would happen not only in their day, but days to come and the distant future. These were God chosen men, men of God not just some ( johnny come lately that momma called and daddy said, son your a prophet). It just doesn't happen that way. Have people been so deceived to think and believe such a thing still happens? Ecclesiastes 1 vs 9, says that which has been, is, that which will be, and that which has been done, is that which will be done. So there is nothing new under the sun. Prophesies of today should in no way be classified as a prophecy. There is no new thingggg. Of the Biblical Prophets what did it say a few sentences back that a prophet is? (gotcha), we hadn't defined a prophet or apostle yet, totally different. A prophet is an authoritative person who divines the future, someone who speaks by divine inspiration; someone who is an interpreter of the Will of God. An apostle is, any important early teacher of Christianity or a Christian missionary to the people. Friends, two totally different callings. There are differences in the gifts and the calling of God, and if you have one of the gifts or callings, feel blessed. God, in no way will repent or say He's sorry because He entrusted you with the gift.
AGAIN I say, Thanks America. People can choose whom they want to believe, whomever you want to follow, God gives us choices, but as for this house, we will trust, serve, believe, and follow God and his word. I know that a lot of people don't care to read about things like this which is fine. Again its that freedom of choice.
If you looked at the gifts and callings of God after Jesus died, these are the gifts to the church that God gave to the church that it may grow and flourish. (1st Cor 12 vs 1-11 ). There is the gift of healing, working of miracles, prophecy, gift of discerning of the spirits, divers kind of tongues, and interpretation of tongues, they work of the same Spirit the Holy Ghost. There I wrote them for you, lol, but the one I want to look at is prophecy, just because you have that gift doesn't make you a prophet who sees hundreds or thousands of years down the road. This gift was given for the edifying of the church. Looking back a minute, there were tongues and interpretation of tongues, it is the spirit of God that moves one to prophesy in tongues, in which in most instances be unknown (unknown tongues) this is where the interpretation of tongues comes in. There has to been an interpreter and not all members of the body of Christ have that gift. Now for prophets true or false.
Now for Nostradamus, hmmm, strange bird if ya ask me. Well where do we start? # 1-He was no prophet, #2-his writing was not prophecy. He was a seer, a soothsayer, a clairvoyant, he had the ability to foretell the future, he was one who predicted the future by using magic and intuition. Before I even wrote anything about Nostradamus and the magic, I read where he changed a lot of his writing to use symbols and left out certain letters so they would not think, (THINK) he used magic, but as a matter of fact in part, he was using partly magic and then was smart enough to be able to hide it from those who would recognize him being a warlock, plain and simple.
Again I say Thanks America. What is so sad about America today is they put more trust in the writing of man, than the very one who created them. Then again, God will not force you, me or any other red blooded person on earth to believe in Him.
I was looking at the 2012 video, that was wild, but good. The only thing that was far fetched on it was the aliens and the giant meteor hitting the earth. Hmm, I haven't read in the bible about that (yet). Guess I'll go back and read some more, but about aliens, I don't know, but angels, yes. Then we have the dilemma of the anti-christ, an antichrist can be anyone who is against the word of GOD and Christ Jesus. John in 1st john 2:8 wrote: (you can read for yourself), the anti-christ we await to appear is he whom shall arise out of the East. A lot of people think it's the Pope, some say Chinese, some say he will of a Arab descent, any of them it could be. But I haven't ask God to show who it will be, I won't, because that's not for me to know until that time occurs. I will put this out there from the way I feel, it could be a muslim born American or should he even be considered American, I don't think so but who am I.
So America Thanks, while the world looks for signs and makes up sign such as 2012 I'll keep searching the Scripture and seeking God the Father and his son Jesus. While so many predict the end, they lead millions down that road to destruction. I guess no one has ever read in the Bible where it says, that NOT EVEN JESUS KNOWS THE DAY HE WILL RETURN, (BOOYAH). WHEN THE FATHER ON THE THRONE TURNS TO HIM, HIS SON JESUS, AND SAYS, SON IT'S TIME, IT WILL BE TIME TO RUMBLE. WOW, just as I set here writing this, can't you just feel the angels in heaven rehearsing their part. FRIENDS it says every eye shall see and every knee shall bow.
Well as I finish this article i guess I'll swallow some of my anger, and say once again, thanks America again for bringing us one day closer in prophecy, to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. I guess instead of using the word anger, I should use some other word such as selfishness, I guess I say it the way I do because he is the very man who is behind the peoples back that voted him in to office, slowly sliding the knife into their backs. But first he will destroy anything and everything that has to do with God and His word, then turn on the very people who elected him.
So Thanks America again, if you can do something/anything else to get us closer to the coming of Jesus pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease do.
Shalom and Peace to Israel.

Saying Thank You just isn't enough.
We are supposed to be a nation, a country which stands for something other than our own needs. A country which our young and old alike have stood for down through the annals of time. It's not about red, yellow, black or white any more. And no matter what I think I am just one voice out of millions, a voice that will never be heard or a body that will never be seen. My dream again I say fell by the way. They say that when children are young, they dream and think of what they want to be when they grow up. Some want to be policemen, some firemen, others, Doctors and some big time lawyers, not bad dreams for being so young. But I don't want to stray to far from the title. Saying Thank you just isn't enough. We are a nation of many but deep down a nation of one. As it looks right now, the way things are, if America finishes falling, we all fall, no matter race, gender, origin or religion.
Some gave some, some gave all. Saying thank you just isn't enough. My grandfather serv
ed in the Army in Germany, Korea and a short term in Nam, and lived to tell about. My Dad also served in the Army in Korea and Nam and Germany. He finished his tour in the Army and then finished his career in the Air force. Thanks Dad and Pops for serving, keeping America and other countries safe from aggression and the aggressors. For thousand of years battles and wars have occurred seemingly one right after another. And as long as there are humans running things, there will continue to be wars. Remember that the Word of God says one thing and One thing Very loudly, that when they begin (meaning the world begins) to say there is peace and safety, the Bible says, then there will come sudden destruction. Mr. President Obama, Mr. Secretary of State Clinton, (and I said Mr., not joking in stating it she would rather be a man, we've already had 8 years of her as president)sorry but it takes more than a village to raise a child. And to every other leader under the sun, moon and stars, keep pushing for peace and we'll all get to go home soon.And as I said, some gave some, some gave all. Saying thank you just isn't enough. My dream as a child was to be one of the best. And what I'm about to say is nothing to down grade any of our service men, whether they are the Army, Navy, Air force, Coast guard or any branch of the national guards that serve to protect our freedom and freedom of others, our Sovereignty. Thank you, I know its not enough. I myself wa
nted to be a Marine, a jar head, I wanted to be one of the few, the proud, the Marines known for being the first in and the last out. And at that time if they would have taken me, not saying I could have seen into the future back then, I would have given my all for the Corp. I could of gone Army, I could have probably gone navy, but I didn't want to be either of those, for me it was Marines or none and the Marines wouldn't take me, #1 my eyes were to bad and nerves were shot, and I had no diploma. I think that if you can carry a gun, hoist a rifle, shoot and hit a target, (supposedly the enemy) that ought to be good enough to serve.Peeps I didn't write this article or blog to be about me. It's to all the Proud men and women, young boys and every girl that has ever stood up for the Red, White, and Blue. The U.S. of A. that took and takes that oath to serve and protect, not only this great country but interests abroad, where diplomacy and democracy may have a chance to be a way of life. We salute you from the bottom to the top of our hearts. I say Thank You even though it will never ever
I could sit here all night long and blab on and on, and I must repeat it again, some gave some, some gave all, but saying Thank You will never ever be enough.
God please Bless America again, just the way you did back then, Lord, keep your hand I ask upon all the service men and women here and abroad. Lord and thank you for being Our GOD. We Praise and Thank you (and thank you will never be enough).
SHALOM AND PEACE TO ISRAEL

Only in a America, Is not America no more.
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 wa
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-sponsore
d 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.

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 pra
yer 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. Preside
nt, 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.
