This should be a time of great pride and accomplishment for the United States and the American people at large. We are seeing some nations shrugging off the old wet coat of socialism that caused stagnation in their economy and land, and moving where? Center - right, favoring capitalism.
But, instead of feeling satisfaction in a job well done, by attempting to be that “shining city on a hill” that our founding fathers and President Reagan envisioned , we are busy regressing, and apologizing for not emulating the failed policy of governments in the continents our founding fathers and ancestors left to prove on this continent that there can be a better way. And this is happening while so many in the world are discovering that there is a better way and want it
The United States of America has always been a leader. A leader in religious tolerance, a leader in government for the people by the people, a leader in compassionate force - that fights wars not to conquer foreign lands but to free them. We led in capitalism, technology, healthcare, and military might. Whenever we begin to falter in our areas of leadership, and lose our lead, the roots of that regression can only be found in our losing our way, forgetting what our founding fathers stood for and fought to establish. We forget our Maker, our Providence.
We stood proud with the freedoms fought for and won in World War II, we stood with pride knowing that our President and government stood up for what was right and saw the Berlin Wall fall and saw a mighty blow to communism in Eastern Europe.
Yet, here we are in a pivotal time in world history and while the rest of the world is giving capitalism and freedom a second look, what are we doing? Lighting our Empire State Building in communism red!!!
How are we standing with these wonderful people who are being so badly mistreated by their government by celebrating this governments revolution? And how can we be in the position to feel the pride we should feel at the fire of freedom that our forefathers lit that still burns today, watching our own government be scared of it?
Then we have President Obama giving away more of our sovereignty at the G20 meeting. To quote in my opinion one of the most brilliant men in America, Dick Morris has written “Obviously, we live in a global economy. But the United States is 24 percent of it. We are entitled to more than one-twentieth of a voice, and it is the world that should be following our policies -- not the other way around.” I would go to www.dickmorris.com to read more.
Is this what we really, want America? And I know this has been said many times before, but it bears repeating -- Is this the change America voted for? NO!!!
It is up to us America, because our leaders won’t do it. We must take America back to our God and our principles. (Peacefully) Arm ourselves with our Constitution, our prayers, and our involvement in whatever we can do and let’s make America shine like the leader she is for the good so many have spilled their blood for.
God gave us a priceless gift when He gave us this nation. We are her stewards and its time to make God and our founding fathers proud. Let’s get busy, America, by God’s grace we can do it!
And as always America bless your God!

We Are The World?
This is an email my father-in-law sent me and it deserves posting.
Americans that heard or read Obama's speech to the United Nations General
Assembly should not let him get away with the way he talked about our
country in his disgraceful and dishonorable speech. There is no other way
you can put it. You have never heard of any other American president talking
in such away as he did. In his opening comments he said, "For those who
question the character and cause of my nation, I ask you to look at the
concrete actions we have taken in just nine months." What concrete actions?
Then he proceeded to spout off those "concrete actions," such as prohibiting
torture -- as if to suggest that prior to his ascension to president,
torture had been official U.S. policy. Who is he kidding? It is like he is
saying in a roundabout way, down with America. Why is he always in his
speeches apologizing for America? When is he or his wife every going to say
anything good about America?
Take notice that he didn't say, "For those who question America's character,
I want to mention to you our record of international compassion, kindness,
goodwill, peacemaking and peacekeeping, liberating countries from cruel
tyrants, upholding democracy throughout the world, and leading the world in
industrial and scientific improvements and the very advancement of
civilization." Never once did he say anything about the billions and
billions of "United States Dollars" that was given to hurting and
undeveloped countries. Not once did he say whenever there is a major world
disaster the United States is always there with over whelming man power and
aid. Did he say anything like that? "NO" Instead, he made it very clear
that he shares the view of the world's liberals, socialist, and communist
critics that America has acted "to do what the United States wants to do
without regarding or considering the interests of others," He said that the
American people were "arrogant" and "sometimes dismissive." In other words,
he is saying, that the we are bigheaded, arrogant, and high and mighty. Is
this what we want from the man that was elected to the highest office in our
land? Is this who was voted for and elected to be the leader of the free
world?
For the people that still does not believe that Obama is not particularly
fond of this country's founding values, freedom and our traditions, you can
at least concede that Obama has contempt for American's outstanding and
extraordinary excellence and prefers that this nation not be the world's
sole superpower? He has said it and has showed it in his actions. Or that he
believes Americans possess an large amount of the world's wealth, which is
morally wrong and he is also not especially protective of America's national
sovereignty? We can see all this by the way he speaks and by his actions.
Once again this is the man that was elected to the highest office in this
land.
Obama isn't content merely engaging in a scheme to totally redistribute the
income and wealth of Americans internally (to the tune of some $1 trillion
from the top 30 percent of income earners to the lower 70 percent through
his proposals on taxes, health care and the environment, according to the
Tax Foundation). He also believes Americans should be compelled to
redistribute their resources to the world's poor, as well. This is who was
elected as our president. Do you remember when Obama said the following in
Chicago on Oct. 2, 2007? "In the 21st century, progress must mean more than
a vote at the ballot box; it must mean freedom from fear and freedom from
want. We cannot stand for the freedom of anarchy. Nor can we support the
globalization of the empty stomach. We need new approaches to help people to
help themselves. The United Nations has embraced the Millennium Development
Goals, which aim to cut extreme poverty in half by 2015. When I'm president,
they will be America's goals. The Bush administration tried to keep the U.N.
from proclaiming these goals; the Obama administration will double foreign
assistance to $50 billion to lead the world to achieve them. In the 21st
century, we cannot stand up before the world and say that there's one set of
rules for America and another for everyone else."
True to his word, though it was hardly reported in the news, Obama made this
statement in his U.N. speech: "We have fully embraced the Millennium
Development Goals." I'm not sure where he got the authority to make that
one-sided statement, but needless to say he made it. I guess now since he is
president, he thinks he can do what he wants and say what he wants instead
of having to deal with the legislative process. Obama and his czars rule.
Take a look at why the Bush administration opposed the harmless sounding
"Millennium Development Goals"?
These goals by the united nations has a multi pronged assault on America's
national sovereignty? It also commits contributing nations to be bound by
the International Criminal Court treaty; (you would be tried in a world
court of laws not ours) support regional disarmament measures for small arms
and light weapons; (in others words we would have no second rights
amendment. You would not be allowed to own a gun.) and press for the full
execution of the Convention on Biological Diversity, which Wikipedia
describes as "an international legally binding treaty" that includes among
its goals a "fair and equitable sharing of benefits arising from genetic
resources," the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination
Against Women, described as "an international bill of rights for women," and
the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which purports to be a "legally
binding international instrument" that gives children the right to express
their own opinions "freely in all matters affecting the child" and requires
those opinions be given "due weight." The Millennium Declaration also
affirms the U.N. as "the indispensable common house of the entire human
family, through which we will seek to realize our universal aspirations for
peace, cooperation and development." Where does the family unit come in this
goal.
Without a doubt we are becoming less and less a free nation because under
Obama, "We Are the World."

Dear PM Benjamin Netanyahu
Dear PM Benjamin Netanyahu,
I do not know if anyone from the United States has apologized to you and the great nation of Israel for the great insults that were leveraged at you and all Jews at the United Nations this week. If none of our officials have apologized than they should be ashamed.
I apologize to you on behalf of my country. I know that you and your nation our greatly respected by America's silent majority. The problem is we're silent and the vocal minority is shameful.
I greatly repect you and Israel. I may be just a common, everyday American citizen ( and I am proud of being an American ), but I know real leadership, and a capable man who loves his people when I see it. Instead of these so called "cool" new leaders
trying to press their "new" and "modern" ideas on your nation, they should sit down and take notes from a real leader.
I have read the Good Book, and I know which side wins when the curtain finally falls on time as we all know it. And Israel is on the winning side, actually its at the top of the list. Just remember one of your Tehillim(Psalms) 46:2-3,8
"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we are unafraid, even if the earth gives way, even if the mountains tumble into the depths of the sea...Adonai-Tzva'ot is with us, our fortress, the God of Ya'akov."
Your people are always in my prayers. God bless.
Though I doubt this will be read by the Netanyahu administration, still I could not rest without an apology from somewhere being issued from an American.
Of all the apologies being given for Americans whether we are actually sorry or not the only apology that should have been given, wasn't. I guess the only two nations that Obama won't apologize to is Israel and the United States.
America Bless God!

What Makes A Real Leader
The media and elite alike want people in office who read the "correct" books and go to the "prestigeous" universities. Little clones of themselves. God help us...
A person in office should not have to be any of those things. They should be a normal blogue, who goes to Walmart, and the local grocery store. Someone you see in your local park with their children and in your church. Why? Because that is America.
Americans governing Americans the way Americans want to be governed.
What makes a wise leader is not someone who thinks they have all the answers. It is someone who knows they don't have all the answers, could never have all the answers.They do know to go to Someone higher then themselves for wisdom and direction,to seek out men with character and wisdom and experience,and seek out the average American walking down the street.Seek out, Listen to, Apply wisdom from: God,and intelligent, experienced men with wisdom, and the American next door-- don't hide, ignore, or impune them, or you may find you are no longer the chosen leaders.
A personal aside---If I were an elected American the three main men I would seek out for guidance (after God) would be Dr. James Dobson, Dick Morris, and Dick Cheney. Actually, there is a fourth, Glenn Beck, who in my opinion is proving to be an effective American leader. You do not need to hold an official office to lead people.
Keep up the good work Mr. Beck, you never know how God will use you for the good of this nation.
I believe despite all our foibles and vices and extremely poor voting choices in recent election cycles God still loves America and wants to bless us. I believe America will always hold a special place in His heart. That is why I end this with America Bless Your God.

Our Children's Education Is Not "Ceasar's"
"Render to Ceasar Ceasar's"...our children's education and the tax dollars that fund it are not Ceasar's.
100% of tax money that is allocated for education should be given to taxpayers in the form of credits for the school of the parents choice.
Totally abolish public school system as we now know it and with it all the teacher's unions.
Bad teachers... find other employment.
Good teachers... be rewarded.
Liberals can teach liberally at liberal schools for liberal parents.
Moderates can teach moderately at moderate schools for moderate parents.
Conservatives can teach conservatism freely at conservative schools for conservative parents.
The tax money allotted for education is returned to the tax paying parent to choose the best education for their child. Those below the poverty level also get credit to place their child in a school of their choice. It will be far more profitable than other standard welfare help.
Schools compete, which means better education.
Government won't control curriculum.
ACLU lawyers will find it harder to sue the now private enterprises.
Parents will be back in control.
Even the poorest districts will have the best education and schools, which will raise people up decreasing poverty levels and increasing their self worth and the American way.
