A Frightening Analysis This is a speech given about 2 years ago but still worth repeating. Have you heard this? We all know Dick Lamm as the former Governor of Colorado. In that context his thoughts are particularly poignant. Last week there was an immigration-overpopulation conference in Washington, DC, filled to capacity by many of American's finest minds and leaders. A brilliant college professor named Victor Hansen Davis talked about his latest book, "Mexifornia," explaining ho...
Ok, here's another. I'm writing a lot today especially for me. The reason being is I'm housebound. We are supposed to get like two feet of snow. I'd say we've got about 15-18 inches already. We are having a good ol' fashion nor'easter. It's been a long time since we had a storm like this one. Everything in the state I think has been canceled. Good day to just sit home and relax. So let's see, the wood stove is cranking. The tea kettle is full on the woodstove. My Clorox jugs are ...
“ I recognize we are meeting here today to consider a bill to protect chickens, but isn’t protecting our nation’s young women … equally, if not more important, than our dinner entrée?” -- Rep. James Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., commenting after Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee approved a measure earlier this week to stop animals from being transported across state lines for fighting, but rejected his amendment to stop young girls from being secretly taken across state lines for ab...
Ok, I got another news flash from the Journal. It looks like there's a big meeting planned in Atlanta next year in what is being described as a call for compassion. Several Baptist groups will be involved in this gathering. Leaders of 40 of them will meet with former Presidents Carter and Clinton. The meeting will focus on many social issues. You know stuff like, ecology, racism, poverty and AIDS. Looks like the only missing Baptist group is the Southern Baptist Organization which ...
I received this today via email and was shocked at the number of deaths surrounding the Clintons and had to ask myself.... is this normal? Yes they are in the spotlight, and they do have alot of contacts. But is this normal to have sooooo many people die some in very mysterious ways, or is it just another Clinton basher trying to make a mountain out of a molehill. Is this a "right wing" conspiracy? You decide. Food for Thought--------- Just a quick refresher course lest we forget wh...

Dear Terrorists, I am a Navy Aviator. I was born and raised in a small town in New England . I come from a family of five. I was raised in a middle class home and taught my values by my mother and father. My dad worked a series of jobs in finance and my mom took care of us kids. We were not an overly religious family but attended church most Sundays. It was a nice small Episcopal Church. I have a brother and Sister and I am the youngest in my family. I was the first in many generat...
Much has been said here lately about taxes so I'd like to share a story I heard a long time ago. You're either gonna love it or hate it. Depends on which you relate to.....the Ant or the Grasshopper? THE ANT & THE GRASSHOPPER Old Version: The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks he's a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fe...
When I went to pick up my mail today, I was sure glad to see a trash can within reach. I hate bringing junk mail home with me. It just doesn't seem right that I'm forced to, in some cases, pay for mail I didn't solicit or want in the least. Today I had quite a handful. Then I get home and read the paper to see that our looking-out-for-our-best-interest-lawmakers are spending our money sending us junkmail. This is to the tune of $20.3 million dollars a year. They call it governmen...
I heard on the news this morning, as I was getting ready for church, that Huckabee is now in the lead. Let the fun begin. Wha-hoo!!!! I knew he'd come through!!! Too early to celebrate yet, but he's coming from behind. I love underdogs!!! Now I'm starting to wonder if it might not be Huckabee against Obama in the final dance? I've gone on record way back now saying Huckabee against Hillary but it looks like Obama could nip Hillary in the end. I've given up on Rudy and the ...
I just found out that Mike Huckabee is going to be at my son's school tomorrow. Shoot..... I hope David sees this. I didn't know ahead of time to tell him. He is going to be the convocation speaker. There is going to be a Q & A following. Three times a week they have a convo speaker at Liberty. Alot of times they are well known speakers from all walks. Well usually they are conservatives or Christians but they run the gamit as far as vocation goes. When Jerry was alive I believ...
Well here you go for those who didn't see this op-ed in the NY Times. It's the beginning of organizing the evangelical vote at a meeting in Salt Lake City. The purpose was to discuss what would happen if Giuliani or another GOP candidate who doesn't represent them is elected to be the nominee. It was titled "The Values Test." by James C. Dobson, Ph.D., founder and chairman Dr. Dobson says winning an election is important, but not at the expense of our core beliefs. Reports ...
I've already gone on record to say I believe possibly the presidential election could come down to Huckabee vs Hillary. Of course we still have a ways to go and time will surely tell. I think he's the GOP's only hopeful. My opinion. At the Values Voter Summit in Washington DC a week or so ago Huckabee came out strong and was received as such. His speech was interrupted at least 20 times with applause and had at least a dozen or so standing ovations. He also won, by a large margi...
With a year left to think about the presidential election, I'm at this point zeroing in on Huckabee. Actually I think I've pretty much decided. I think President Huckabee has a nice ring to it. My number one criteria for President is integrity and he qualifies. He was the candidate who won hands down the Values Voter Presidential Debate in September. So many others feel the same about his fine character. He's a pro-family, pro-marriage, pro-borders, less government, strongly against ...
