God Will Not Be Mocked

God will not be mocked
Praise God for the preachers who are not unafraid to oppose this radical change to the America we love! While listening to Coral Ridge Ministries this morning, I learned that Saul Alinsky's book, Rules for Radicals, is dedicated to Satan:

"From all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins – or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom – Lucifer."

It is chilling to think that our President taught this book at the Saul Alinsky Institute. Or to realize that Hillary Rodman Clinton's honors thesis was about Saul Alinsky, who believed in instituting fundamental change. This marriage of Marxism and black supremist theology is what Obama learned at Trinity Church at the feet of Reverend Jeremiah Wright.

How can our leaders believe it is okay to celebrate the establishment of the kingdom of Satan? Can it be that they wish to change America into a humanistic disbelieving society where Christianity and Judaic beliefs are suppressed and mocked?

I quivered before the election when Obama mocked the Bible. On June 26, 2008 Senator Obama asked "Which passages of scripture should guide our public policy?
Should we go with Leviticus which suggests slavery is okay? Or we could go with Deuteronomy which suggests stoning your child if he strays from the faith? Or we could go just stick with the Sermon on the Mount, a passage which is so radical it is doubtful our own defense department could survive its application. Folks haven't been reading their Bible.

The video is on you tube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnmS_vULPxw.

Let us pray for our leaders- that the scales may drop from their eyes before it is too late. Let us pray for the citizens of America that we "stand as a watchtower" against the evil plans which arise while half of the electorate is sound asleep.

Is Your Child's Safety More Important than Teacher's Union Pay?

School Cutbacks or Endanger Your Child? Save R.O. School Buses
The Royal Oak School District decided to eliminate buses for children, beginning in September of this year. I wonder...Did the board or the superintendent consider the inconvenience for parents who may have to quit their jobs in order to transport their children to school? Did they think about how hard it is to get a job these days. How hard it is to arrange a new schedule with an employer. More importantly, did they think about how unsafe it is for children to walk unescorted these days?

I venture to guess they did not consider that a child from my house would have to cross Woodward Avenue, a six lane thoroughfare....in Michigan....during winter. I guess they did not consider that cars may slide off slippery roads and a child could become seriously injured. (Just ask the residents of Hilliard, Ohio as two teens were seriously injured this year) I guess they never considered that child predators would love the opportunity to snatch one of these darlings.

It seems it is more important to keep the six figure salary of Dr. Tom Moline and to keep intact the pensions and salaries of the teachers, than to protect Royal Oak's children. The superintendent and the school board chose to maintain the status quo of the teacher's union, over the general welfare of the students.

Though I no longer have a child at home, I remember a very serious situation when my daughter was in grade school. Despite writing a note in my daughter's personal file in the principal's office asking that my daughter not be dismissed from school without my knowledge, she was sent home anyway, across six lanes of traffic. There was no crossing guard at Woodward. Six inches of new snow had just fallen. I was at work and knew nothing of the school dismissal. Without the keen eye of a neighbor who spotted her freezing outside, my child might of died.

I formed a new Facebook group today: Save Our School Bus. Please join this on line group and join me in person at 6 p.m. March 11th to protest this decision at the next school board meeting. The very safety of your children is at stake.

On the Hunt for True Conservatives, Part 2

We don't have a choice anymore. The progressive policies of Jennifer Granholm and Kwame Kilpatrick have taxed business and their employees right out of Michigan. It is nigh on impossible to travel south on I-75 and not see a u-haul. Homes in my modest neighborhood have now lost 75 percent of their value. My only option if I want to move, is to rent now and hope to sell later. Homes are not selling unless you are willing to lose all of your investment just to get away.

I'm fortunate that I live in the suburbs of Detroit. Many parts of the inner city look like a third world country. If you were blindfolded and saw the houses you might mistake Detroit for Bagdad or another war-torn city.

So how did it happen? This video with Steve Chowder, released by PJ TV explains how it happened:

This mini-documentary traces the history of progressive policies in Detroit. Once the progressive politicians have emptied everyone's pocketbook, they leave the state and move to their multi-million dollar mansions in some southern resort area. They played for your money, and like a con artist the skip town after robbing you blind.

So what do we do with those who are left in office? How do we determine those candidates who want to serve us (the taxpayers) or in politics to profit themselves? Let's begin by looking at incumbents.

The Repork Card, produced by the Club for Growth gives us a listing of which representatives voted for pork and which didn't:*

U.S. Rep. Pete Hoekstra, R-Holland 97 percent
U.S. Rep. Thad McCotter, R-Livonia 85 percent
U.S. Rep. Vern Ehlers, R-Grand Rapids 78 percent
Median score for Republicans nationwide 69 percent
U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Brighton 66 percent
U.S. Rep. Fred Upton, R-St. Joseph 53 percent
U.S. Rep. Mark Schauer, D-Battle Creek 43 percent
U.S. Rep. Candice Miller, R-Harrison Twp 31 percent
U.S. Rep. Dave Camp, R-Midland 24 percent
U.S. Rep. Gary Peters, D-Bloomfield Twp 1 percent
Median score for Democrats nationwide 0 percent
U.S. Rep. John Conyers, D-Detroit 0 percent
U.S. Rep. John Dingell, D-Dearborn 0 percent
U.S. Rep. Dale Kildee, D-Flint 0 percent
U.S. Rep. Carolyn Cheeks-Kilpatrick, D-Detroit 0 percent
U.S. Rep. Sander Levin, D-Southfield 0 percent
U.S. Rep. Bart Stupak, D-Menominee 0 percent

Anyone scoring 1 percent or lower is a pork-barrel spender. These politicians are very dangerous to our nation's survival. This is a harsh conclusion for me to come to. But look at Detroit.....

Then I ask you for one more favor. Help me find candidates who are sincere about cutting the budget. Find people who will not vote for a bill that contains special privileges for some states and not for others. If you find a candidate committed to living a pork-free life in Congress- let me know. I'll post their names here.

Jay Riemersma on Super Bowl Sunday Ad

Jay Riemersma, is off and running on a new field this time- and is standing strong in the 2nd Congressional District Race. It could be this field- politics- is dirtier and muddier than any he has traversed before in his football career. He was recently endorsed by AFP, and has served as the regional director of the Family Research council. Listen in his own words as he proudly takes a pro-life stance and stands with his "team-mate in Christ" Tim Tebow's Superbowl Ad by Focus on the Family: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3FCoFj8vCZQ

State of the Union

Barack Hussein Obama pointed a lot of fingers last night. But as my mother taught me... if a man points a finger at you, look at the three fingers pointing back at himself.

Our president pointed out the lack of bi-partisanship. How about all those close-door meetings crafting the failed health care plan? Republicans were not even let in the door. He pointed at the lobbyists. Yet the pharma lobbyists were present during every health care meeting.

He pointed at earmarks, yet the bailouts and stimulus funds were nothing more than one giant fat pudgy finger full.

He pointed at the out of control spending during the Bush administration. Yet under his watch the national debt is on course to double in five years and triple in ten.

Our president pointed at the Supreme Court justices, saying their recent decision will allow foreign monies to influence elections. Yet the foreign investment laws were left in tact. It was an unfactual point, not befitting the office of the Presidency.

He pointed at the banks and said we will tax those big bonusses. Any employer knows that taxing business means business just passes the tax on to the consumer. Do we really need higher interest rates and fees?

He pointed to the need for "cap and trade" -albeit surreptitiously hiding it behind the need to protect our planet. I don't know anyone who thinks we can sustain a triple increase in our energy bills.

I liked the part about exploring clean coal technologies, nuclear plants, and drilling off-shore. It was a way to point us out of this mess. We need a lot more of this type of pointing, and less of the other.

One reason why I like Governor Mike Huckabee so much is that he has ideas which could guide us out of this economic moross. "Balance, Cut, and Save." "Enact the fair tax". Taking this direction could bring in 15 trillion dollars of off-shore business. Our country needs business as business creates jobs.

The Governor also speaks to protecting life and securing the rights of the unborn. He speaks to protecting our second amendment. He is for a strong national defense and not treating terrorists as citizens with rights. Thats what we need in a leader. We don't need a leader who points fingers, but a man who can see a prosperous, safe America and lead us there.

The failed policies of Barack Obama

If Huckabee were to run against Obama today, he might very well win as he beat Obama in a Presidential popularity poll. Obama has given Huck a plethora of material. I can almost hear Huck beginning his campaign with these words: "The failed policies of Barack Hussein Obama over the last four years have produced skyrocketing unemployment. The failed policies of Barack Hussein Obama over the last four years have grown the federal government to a monstrous level. The failed policies of Barack Hussein Obama have made the womb the most dangerous place for a baby to live."

Feel free to add more failed policies to this list.

Protect Life

This will take a moment of your time. It sends a letter to your Senators and Representatives, encouraging them to vote pro-life. Since my representatives are not listening, I'll spend a moment and write to them.

Gary Peters had the audacity to ask the police to cordon off his office. Read what the chair of the MIGOP District 9 said:

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Glenn Clark
01-20-10 mi9thgop@gmail.com

TROY, MICHIGAN --- Yesterday, January 19, 2010, the staff of U.S. Congressman Gary Peters (D-MI09) were complacent with building management at Peters’ congressional district office in Troy, Michigan, by standing by after signs were posted at the property entrance which stated “parking for tenants only”. This happened after a local, homegrown tea party was organized to show up at Peters’ office to tell his staff that they are urging Peters to vote no on the Obama-Pelosi-Reid effort to takeover 1/6 of the U.S. economy by nationalizing our healthcare system. Peters’ staff stood in close proximity to the signs which effectively shuts citizens off from his office which is a taxpayer-funded pubic entity. If the public parking lot of his office is for “tenants only” and no parking is permitted on the street outside the building via Troy traffic ordinance, then Peters’ and his staff are in clear violation of congressional mandates on open access for the public to their Representative’s office.

In response to the news of said violation, Chairman Glenn Clark of the 9th Congressional District Republicans stated, “Clearly Congressman Gary Peters and his liberal staff are trying to close themselves off from the working families of Oakland County. They were complacent in having handwritten, temporary signs erected and placed basically telling citizens and voters to stay the heck out of his office because they knew tea party movement activists where coming to visit. Yellow police tape was lining the property boundaries and a police squad car and officer were present as well. We simply urged citizens to petition Peters on their thoughts on the Obama-Pelosi-Reid-Peters healthcare takeover scheme. Peters and his staff must be held accountable for this infraction of congressional guidelines, rules and policies. This creates a dangerous precedent for future efforts of citizens trying to make their voice heard within the halls of Congress.”

Clark went further by saying, “I saw the signs posted telling people that unless they have office space in the building, they could not park or enter. Peters’ had numerous staff members standing there in silent support of shutting out the public --- the actual voters of his district. I understand that Congressman Gary Peters is afraid of the tea party movement that stands against his big government voting record and his support of the ultra-leftwing Obama-Pelosi agenda, but the good people who came to his office yesterday were peaceful citizens of our district and our state. Shame on Peters for erecting “Fortress Peters” right here in Troy, built and paid for by our very own tax dollars. We demand an apology and an investigation by the Government Accounting Office (GAO) of this violation immediately.
