"I will fundamentally change the United States"... Yes you have and that is not a good thing.

As I reflect on our country and nation, I can't help but think that President Obama has been a successful president. Now you may say, what the H - double toothpick are you talking about, our nation is a mess. I remind you that he ran on the premise of fundamentally changing our nation. In this he has been a great success.

No longer are we the United States, that has been fundamentally changed.
No longer are We the People, that has been fundamentally changed with a pen and phone.
No longer are we a people who look for the good in our countrymen, but a people that don't trust each other, our government, the media, and have become skeptics.
No longer are we a people that blend together, embrace each other, but now are a people who see things as Black and White, deteriorating decades of progress and trust, to bigotry, hate and venom.
No longer are we a people that have faith in God, but a people that have turned our backs on everything that has virtue.
No longer can we claim our place in the world as a nation of help and respect, and strength but now as a nation of contempt, mistrust, and ridicule.
No longer do we feel safe, We feel it not only a right to bear arms, but now we feel it a necessity to our safety to exercise our second amendment rights.
Yes Mr. President, you have been successful in your term as President. But sadly at least to me its been in all the wrong ways. You had the opportunity to do good, you didn't. You had the opportunity to unite, You divided! You had the highest office in the land, and you brought it to new low standards.
As we go forward as Americans, and I hope we do go forward. Not as a book mark of a once great nation in the annals of history of the world. But as a leader in trust, honesty, truth, benevolence, and in doing good to all men, having a hope for the future, being able to continue to endure in all situations. Hopefully we can seek after good virtues, lovely things, things that we are happy to report about, and certainly earn respect and be praiseworthy. Those are the things that will make a difference for good.

If we an strive to be good honest people, electing like minded people maybe, just maybe we can Fundamentally, restore the vision that our founders had.

God Bless you all, and may God Bless America

Its a scary election year

Term limits .... We the People

Currently the U.S. Constitution allows for U.S.Senators and Congress to serve virtually an unlimited amount of terms in office. This practice has proven to lead to the lack of leadership and has promoted "Good Ole Boy" politics. This Practice also limits the introduction of new ideas and opportunities. Making them nearly impossible unless you are a political insider.
We the people have the responsibility to elect noble men and women to these posts. The current system hinders the vision of our Founding Fathers.

Proposed Two term limit for U.S. Senators

Proposed Five term limit for U.S. Congress

If this wasn't so true I'd chuckle

By Jeff Foxworthy:
If plastic water bottles are okay, but plastic bags are banned, — you might live in a nation (state) that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots WE DO LIVE IN SUCH A DUMB COUNTRY!!

If you can get arrested for hunting or fishing without a license, but not for entering and remaining in the country illegally — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If you have to get your parents’ permission to go on a field trip or to take an aspirin in school, but not to get an abortion — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If you MUST show your identification to board an airplane, cash a check, buy liquor, or check out a library book and rent a video, but not to vote for who runs the government — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If the government wants to prevent stable, law-abiding citizens from owning gun magazines that hold more than ten rounds, but gives twenty F-16 fighter jets to the crazy new leaders in Egypt — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If, in the nation’s largest city, you can buy two 16-ounce sodas, but not one 24-ounce soda, because 24-ounces of a sugary drink might make you fat — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If an 80-year-old woman who is confined to a wheelchair or a three-year-old girl can be strip-searched by the TSA at the airport, but a woman in a burka or a hijab is only subject to having her neck and head searched — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If your government believes that the best way to eradicate trillions of dollars of debt is to spend trillions more — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If a seven-year-old boy can be thrown out of school for saying his teacher is “cute” but hosting a sexual exploration or diversity class in grade school is perfectly acceptable — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If hard work and success are met with higher taxes and more government regulation and intrusion while not working is rewarded with Food Stamps, WIC checks, Medicaid benefits, subsidized housing, and free cell phones — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If you pay your mortgage faithfully, denying yourself the newest big-screen TV, while your neighbor buys iPhones, time shares, a wall-sized do-it-all plasma screen TV and new cars, and the government forgives his debt when he defaults on his mortgage — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

If being stripped of your Constitutional right to defend yourself makes you more “safe” according to the government — you might live in a nation that was founded by geniuses but is run by idiots.

THINK BEFORE YOU VOTE IN ALL UPCOMING ELECTIONS. MOST OF THE IDIOTS RUNNING THIS COUNTRY SAY ONE THING AND DO THE OPPOSITE KNOWING THAT THE PEOPLE WHO VOTED THEM IN DO NOT PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT THEY DO BUT ONLY WHAT THEY SAY.

We don't need anymore of this.

If you're under 50 you really need to read this. If you’re over 50, you lived through it, Amazing to me how much I had forgotten!

When Bill Clinton was president, he allowed Hillary to assume authority over a health care reform. Even after threats and intimidation, she couldn’t even get a vote in a democratic controlled congress. This fiasco cost the American taxpayers about $13 million in cost for studies, promotion, and other efforts.

Then President Clinton gave Hillary authority over selecting a female attorney general. Her first two selections were Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood – both were forced to withdraw their names from consideration. Next she chose Janet Reno – husband Bill described her selection as “my worst mistake.” Some may not remember that Reno made the decision to gas David Koresh and the Branch Davidian religious sect in Waco, Texas resulting in dozens of deaths of women and children.

Husband Bill allowed Hillary to make recommendations for the head of the Civil Rights Commission. Lani Guanier was her selection. When a little probing led to the discovery of Ms. Guanier’s radical views, her name had to be withdrawn from consideration.

Apparently a slow learner, husband Bill allowed Hillary to make some more recommendations. She chose former law partners Web Hubbel for the Justice Department, Vince Foster for the White House staff, and William Kennedy for the Treasury Department. Her selections went well: Hubbel went to prison, Foster (presumably) committed suicide, and Kennedy was forced to resign.

Many younger votes will have no knowledge of “Travelgate.” Hillary wanted to award unfettered travel contracts to Clinton friend Harry Thompson – and the White House Travel Office refused to comply. She managed to have them reported to the FBI and fired. This ruined their reputations, cost them their jobs, and caused a thirty-six month investigation. Only one employee, Billy Dale was charged with a crime, and that of the enormous crime of mixing personal and White House funds. A jury acquitted him of any crime in less than two hours.

Still not convinced of her ineptness, Hillary was allowed to recommend a close Clinton friend, Craig Livingstone, for the position of Director of White House security. When Livingstone was investigated for the improper access of about 900 FBI files of Clinton enemies (Filegate) and the widespread use of drugs by White House staff, suddenly Hillary and the president denied even knowing Livingstone, and of course, denied knowledge of drug use in the White House.

Following this debacle, the FBI closed its White House Liaison Office after more than thirty years of service to seven presidents.

Next, when women started coming forward with allegations of sexual harassment and rape by Bill Clinton, Hillary was put in charge of the #$%$ eruption” and scandal defense. Some of her more notable decisions in the debacle were:

She urged her husband not to settle the Paula Jones lawsuit. After the Starr investigation they settled with Ms. Jones.

She refused to release the Whitewater documents, which led to the appointment of Ken Starr as Special Prosecutor.

After $80 million dollars of taxpayer money was spent, Starr's investigation led to Monica Lewinsky, which led to Bill lying about and later admitting his affairs.

Hillary’s devious game plan resulted in Bill losing his license to practice law for 'lying under oath' to a grand jury and then his subsequent impeachment by the House of Representatives.

Hillary avoided indictment for perjury and obstruction of justice during the Starr investigation by repeating, “I do not recall,” “I have no recollection,” and “I don’t know” a total of 56 times while under oath.

After leaving the White House, Hillary was forced to return an estimated $200,000 in White House furniture, china, and artwork that she had stolen.

What a swell party – ready for another four or eight year of this type of low-life mess?

Now we are exposed to the destruction of possibly incriminating emails while Hillary was Secretary of State and the “pay to play” schemes of the Clinton Foundation – we have no idea what shoe will fall next.

But to her loyal fans (supporters) - I guess in her own words “what difference does it make?”

Please Believe again!

From the refuge FBI Siege

Warning some graphic language! You can make your own conclusions about who's is right and who is wrong. The folks under Siege are tired and under a lot of stress. They are scheduled to leave tomorrow.

Great little paragraph

This is a quote from 1931. It was true then and it is still true today. The problem with our government is that they have lost faith in the people. Good men and Women exist today. The feeling that they can legislate and correct all problems is the problem itself. If given the chance, the great people of these United States will aid their fellow man. Yes there are those that are selfish. There are those that lie. But I believe that most people are looking for ways to help others, Many times the restrictions or regulations and legislations get in the way of good people helping. Lets take back our right to lift. 

May God help us as we strive to live as he would have us.
