Ron Paul Warned Us About 9/11

Three years before terrorists attacked... Ron Paul warned us of our interventionist policies...

"Our National Security is more jeopardized by permitting this to happen because we're liable to start a war. We're liable to have our military men killed. We're liable to have more attacks on us by terrorists."



In 2008, Ron Paul was the only Republican saying that we should not be invading countries in the middle east.




In the recent New Hampshire debate, it seems that other candidates are finally getting some idea that Ron Paul has been right all along.

Peggy Noonan of the Wall Street Journal wrote: "Every candidate who was asked took issue with U.S. involvement in Libya. Michele Bachmann asserted no "American interests" were at stake: "We were not attacked. We were not threatened with attack." Newt Gingrich spoke of "fundamentally . . . reassessing our entire strategy in the region." Ron Paul said we should get our troops home. Tim Pawlenty nattered on about something, but even he didn't take an opportunity to ask for patience on Afghanistan. John Huntsman, who was not announced and not present at the debate, told CNN he has doubts about the cost of Afghanistan and the likelihood of U.S. success there...

A flurry of polls this week show the public is on the side of the new sobriety. CNN had 62% now opposing the war in Afghanistan, just 36% in favor. CBS News found 64% want the number of U.S. troops decreased, and 51% said the U.S. shouldn't be in Afghanistan at all. A Washington Post/ABC News poll said 54% of respondents feel the war has not been worth fighting, and 73% said the U.S. should withdraw combat forces this summer. A Rasmussen survey found a combined 56% who said the U.S. should withdraw from Afghanistan immediately or on a firm timetable, up four points since March.
"

Rather than these Johnny and Jenny-Come-Lately folks, why don't we vote for the real visionary? Why not Ron Paul?

The Pro-Abortion Party

The Pro-Abortion Party - WSJ.com: In the budget deal, Democrats make clear their No. 1 priority.

In 2009, Planned Parenthood killed over 330 thousand children. Making his voice perfectly clear, President Obama showed that he would rather shut down the government than take away the taxpayer-funded murders. Unfortunately, but not unexpectedly, the "conservative" politicians agreed with Obama... Sure, let us help you pay to kill these children! No wonder our country is in such trouble.

Pentagon Disinvites Franklin Graham from Prayer Event

The U.S. Army on Thursday withdrew an invitation to a Franklin Graham because he has the audacity to speak the truth. In an interview last year with CNN, Graham said "true Islam" was too violent to be practiced in the United States.

"You can't beat your wife. You cannot murder your children if you think they've committed adultery or something like that, which they do practice in these other countries," he said.

"I don't agree with the teachings of Islam and I find it to be a very violent religion."


How dare anyone disagree with beating your wife? Who knows, they may soon have wife-beating awards to wear on the soldiers' chests... You go ARMY!

President Obama Loved Biden's F-Bomb?

Great... The offices of our United States President and Vice President are getting more vulgar every day. In fact, if you ask Joe Biden, his use of foul language isn't a big deal to the President of the UnVice  President Joseph R. Bidenited States.

Apparently Joe Biden is "laughing off" his use of a profanity on the national stage as it was picked up by nearby live microphones. He used the "f-word" during the White House ceremony surrounding President Obama's signing of the Democratic healthcare reform bill.

After a his introduction of the president, Biden leaned into Obama and stated: "This is a big [expletive] deal." (View video report from Associated Press)

Now... Even worse... On Wednesday night in the vice president told supporters at a fundraiser that Obama was not upset by his use of profanity in the setting. According to the report, Biden quoted President Obama as saying he considered "Joe's comment" as the "best thing" about the nationally televised signing ceremony.

So these are the men who are our leaders? One would at least expect an apology.

Pray for Our Country

Praying for our country as President Obama signs legislation at 11:00 today that will outlaw the teachings of Jesus Christ. Christians and other believers will now become targets for persecution and prosecution because of this law. This ‘hate crimes’ bill will make as many as 30 different sexual orientations into federally-protected minority groups.

Congress Passes Pedophile Protection Act

Happy Pastor Appreciation Month! A wonderful present was given to our pastors yesterday as Congress passed legislation that will criminalize particular thoughts. If passed into law, it will be illegal to have a thought that any sexual orientation is wrong. It will be a federal offense to preach against any sexual orientation.

If signed into law, it will give pedophiles, voyeurs, and exhibitionists special protections, which is why the bill has correctly been called "The Pedophile Protection Act." In fact, during consideration of H.R. 1913, the Democrats made clear the intent not to define sexual orientation at all. In fact, they voted down (on party lines) an amendment offered by Rep. King to exclude pedophilia (sexual orientation toward a child) as a sexual orientation covered by the bill.

It's amazing that they are making up this "crisis." According to FBI data (Crime in the United States, 2006, and Hate Crime Statistics, 2006), anti-homosexual "hate crimes" account for a miniscule fraction of total crimes in the United States:
  • None of the recorded 17,034 murders that occurred in 2006 (0 percent) occurred as a result of "bias motivation" because of the sexual orientation of the victim.
  • None of the recorded 92,455 forcible rapes that occurred in 2006 (0 percent) were reported as being a result of bias motivation because of the victim's sexual orientation.
  • Of the recorded 860,853 aggravated assaults in 2006, 267 (.03 percent) were classified as bias motivation because of the victim's sexual orientation.
Also note that they attached this legislation to H.R. 2647, which is the "National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2010" which will almost assuredly be passed. Yes, the purveyors of pedophilia are quite shrewd.

I have already contacted my Senators to vote against this bill will continue to pray that it does not become law. I urge my friends and all Christians to take action: Contact your Senators and please pray for our pastors.

Be Heard!



Our President is continuing to push his policies of death and hate. The latest onslaught on our children is by way of removing the "Conscience Clause" from the way that our medical personnel are allowed to do business. The "Conscience Clause" was passed by the U.S. Congress which required that hospitals not be penalized for failing to engage in abortion procedures. The legislation passed easily. But now, President Obama wants to require all medical professionals to participate in the destruction of children or face criminal charges.

Please, speak out against this action by our pro-abortion President!

Killer On the Loose

Eighteen and pregnant, Sycloria Williams went to an abortion clinic outside Miami and paid $1,200 for Dr. Pierre Jean-Jacque Renelique to terminate her 23-week pregnancy.

Three days later, she sat in a reclining chair, medicated to dilate her cervix and otherwise get her ready for the procedure.

Only Renelique didn’t arrive in time. According to Williams and the Florida Department of Health, she went into labor and delivered a live baby girl. Sycloria watched the baby "moving and making noises for approximately five minutes," according to an affidavit in support of Gonzalez's arrest warrant.

What Williams and the Health Department say happened next has shocked people on both sides of the abortion debate: One of the clinic’s owners, who has no medical license, Belkis Gonzalez, entered the room, used a pair of shears to cut the baby's umbilical cord, then "scooped up the baby and placed the live baby, placenta and afterbirth in a red plastic biohazard bag, which she sealed, and then threw bag and the baby in a trash can."

Police recovered the decomposing remains in a cardboard box a week later after getting anonymous tips.

After the outcry of many citizens throughout our country, authorities in Florida have finally filed charges against Belkis Gonzalez. She faces a second-degree felony count of unlicensed practice of a health care profession resulting in serious bodily injury and a third-degree felony count of tampering with or fabricating physical evidence, authorities said Tuesday.

She was arrested and taken into custody, prosecutors said. If convicted, she faces a minimum sentence of a year in jail.

HOW CAN THIS NOT BE MURDER?!?!?

Nine Hours of Hope - DASHED by Obama

It took less than nine hours for President Obama to put down
"that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness."
It took less than nine hours for his staff to affirm that ALL DO NOT DESERVE A CHANCE. And to believe that I had hope in this president . . . I had prayed that he was an honest and truthful man. Even when many said "we will see," I really tried to believe him and trust him . . . But it took less than nine hours to dash all my hope for our children to get a fair chance.

Apparently, officials with the new administration have revealed that President Obama will repeal a ban on U.S. taxpayer funding of foreign abortions on his first day in office. World Net Daily reports: "Fed coffers to be opened for worldwide abortions."

I followed up on this and looked his "agenda" at www.whitehouse.gov to find that President Obama has already announced that he "will make preserving women's rights under Roe v. Wade a priority in his Adminstration." (Note: Apparently in a hurry to get this published, his staff skipped the spell-checking and correction of Administration.)

How could the man be so bold to tell us that everyone deserves a chance and then so quickly turn around to destroy that chance for millions of Americans? I know that's what he had promised before the elections, but I was praying for a change of heart. I was praying for an ethical man of compassion . . . Not some monster who is salivating at the prospect of killing our children. Dear Lord, help us.

Obama Invokes God's Promise of Life

"The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness." - President Barack Obama

So begins the Obama legacy . . . I thank God for the words that our new President has chosen. I know that the words were carefully chosen and studied . . . They were not just spouted without thought. Those words have never rung truer than during this week: National Sanctity of Human Life Week.

I take this opportunity to thank our new President and to give him credit for great words. I am praying that this man follows through on his statement ALL DESERVE A CHANCE! I am praying that he has the courage to end abortion now and ensure that Americans actually DO have a chance. What a great day for the United States . . . Finally a president who will bring an end to the killing of pre-born children.

Looking forward to the Presidential Order to end abortion this week . . .

George W. Bush: Bible Not Literally True

We have seen it through his actions, have heard him mention it, but now George W. Bush has made it very clear that He DOES NOT hold the same Christian beliefs of many of his supporters. His interview on Nightline focused on his religious beliefs and interpretation of the Bible. Of course, anyone with an ounce of discernment should not have been surprised to hear him say that he does not take the Bible's words literally, that evolution and Christianity can co-exist, and that people of other religions probably pray to the same Supreme Being he claims to pray to.

During these last days of his Presidency, he seems to have given up on trying to pull the wool over Christian eyes, loosening his lips and his politically charged mindset enough to allow such devastating words to become public. His actions over the past eight years weren't enough for many to recognize that his words outlining peace and compassion were empty. His economic conservatism was exposed after our economy collapsed under his open wallet policies, now his social conservatism ploy is under scrutiny. In fact, now he's turning socialist as he's doing his best to governmentalize as many businesses as he can.

So, what are his Christian supporters saying now? Will any of them rebuke their "Christian" President for his apostasy? If they choose to back a man just because he CLAIMS to be a Christian, but does not act according to the Lord's values, why not support Barack Obama the same way? He claims to be a Christan. Why? He is a Democrat. You see, it's not principle; it's partisan politics that matters, after all.

For an excellent article concerning this interview, I encourage you to read Chuck Baldwin -- Where Are Dobson And PCC Now?

Stop Being USED by the Republicans

I am so tired of the Republicans USING Christians just for elections and never doing what they promised. For six years, they controlled the White House, the Senate, the House of Representatives, the Supreme Court . . . And what did they do?

They raised our taxes, they increased federal regulations, they got us deeper and deeper in debt, and they did NOTHING to stop the killing of our children. Year after year Ron Paul, has proposed the Sanctity of Life Act four times and George W. Bush has never promoted the passage of a bill that would protect our children.

This bill, which unfortunately always died in committee, declares that: (1) human life shall be deemed to exist from conception, without regard to race, sex, age, health, defect, or condition of dependency; and (2) the term "person" shall include all such human life. Recognizes that each state has authority to protect the lives of unborn children residing in the jurisdiction of that state .

It further amends the federal judicial code to remove Supreme Court and district court jurisdiction to review cases arising out of any statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, or practice, or any act interpreting such a measure, on the grounds that such measure: (1) protects the rights of human persons between conception and birth; or (2) prohibits, limits, or regulates the performance of abortions or the provision of public funds, facilities, personnel, or other assistance for abortions.

Surely, no thinking Christian could possibly believe that the Republicans are going to change their ways. It is just another lie to get their vote. If elected, Chuck Baldwin will stop the killing of pre-born children. That is why I am praying for his success!

Lesser of Two Evils?

For several years, as my children can attest, we worked hard for the Republican party and for conservative American values that we cherished. We saw candidates who spoke with conviction about the God they served and the Bible they believed. Those men were easy to support.

As the years passed, I began to see the candidates change. The Biblical conviction was lacking and the public record of "doing the right thing" was thin. I started to see that the Republican candidates, in spite of much rhetoric, were a lot like the Democratic candidates. They were both headed the same direction on most issues. (Just one was going there faster than the other.) As I worked the polls, I also saw something else . . . Those voters who were once so happy to cast their vote, were leaving the polling place without any zeal or excitement about their candidate. The problem is, they were voting for "the lesser of two evils."

The right to vote is a great privilege, not to be taken lightly. A vote for a bad candidate is a vote that has been squandered. There are many issues which must be weighed; including the bailout failed business with our tax money, a time to bring our soldiers home, the protection of our countries borders, the use of our resources for the United Nations . . . But of highest importance to me is the saving of human life. I have reviewed the candidates, their positions, and their records. Their record and words speak very clearly. On the question of saving the children, I have three choices . . .
  1. A man who will allow many children to be killed -
    abortion for any reason.

  2. A man who will allow some children to be killed-
    some abortion and embryonic experiments.

  3. A man who will protect all children -
    ending legalized abortion.
I am accountable every opportunity made available to me. James 4:17 tells me that "one who knows the right thing to do and does not do it, to him it is sin." So I ask, is it right to vote for the man who will end abortion, or is it right to vote for one of the others who will not?

Chuck Baldwin is the man who will honor things which I know are true. While leaning that direction for a while, I became fully convinced this week when he was endorsed by Ron Paul for President. This year, I'm not choosing the lesser of two evils; I'm choosing Chuck Baldwin.

Ban on Sex for Soldiers Lifted

Single Soldiers and civilians working for the U.S. military in Afghanistan can now have sex legally. So rather than encourage good and moral behavior, our government is now encouraging sin in this area too. Please pray for our soldiers . . . Things are not getting better.

Terri Schiavo: My Sister's Regret

"Senator Obama said that his biggest regret was allowing Congress to try to help my sister. I wish I could ask Terri about her biggest regret, because as things turned out I’m certain that hers would have been that she was born in an America where life is no longer viewed as precious and worthy of protection."


March 31 marks the third anniversary of the death of Terri Schiavo. While Terri was indeed brain damaged, family members and friends still speak of meaningful interactions with her up to the point of her death. A death that was caused when our government would not protect her right to food and water. Terri starved to death and Senator Obama now speaks of his regret for allowing Congress to try to help her. God, help our country!

Obama contends belief in Jesus Christ not necessary for salvation

Obama contends belief in Jesus Christ not necessary for salvation (OneNewsNow.com): "GREENSBORO, N.C. - Senator Barack Obama has told an audience that although he believes Christ died for his sins, those who reject that teaching can also be children of God."
(This is really sad, but a common belief today.)

Ron Paul Joins March for Life

Rep. Ron Paul (R-Texas) was the only GOP presidential candidate to make an appearance at the 35th annual March for Life on Tuesday, the anniversary of the U.S. Supreme Court's Roe v. Wade decision giving women the right to abortion on demand. Ron Paul Joins March for Life ( CNSNews.com ) In other events of the day, Norma McCorvey endorsed the only true pro-life presidential candidate, Ron Paul, saying that "he has never wavered." Ron Paul endorsed by Jane Roe, yes, THAT Roe ( LA Times)

Ron Paul beats Rudy and Fred - AGAIN

"Ron Paul thumped two reputed Republican heavyweights in the Michigan primary -- former Sen. Fred Thompson of Tennessee and former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani." -- Top of the Ticket : Los Angeles Times : Ron Paul, beats Rudy and Fred - AGAIN

So why am I a supporter of Ron Paul? Number one, Ron Paul is a Christian man. I should never vote to put someone who does not serve my Lord into power. It is wrong to attempt to put a server of Satan into power. I was reading, just this morning in Matthew where Jesus reminds us that "He who is not with Me is against Me."

For those who would recommend Mike Huckabee, I had to earnestly look into his record as governor of Arkansas. Not only did he move for taxpayers to pick up the bill for the children of illegal alien college funds, he NEVER did anything to stop one abortion. Both Huckabee and Paul have public records . . . Huckabee's shows no pro-life action, even though he was empowered . . . Ron Paul, however, introduced the Sanctity of Life Act four times.

This bill, which unfortunately always died in committee, declares that: (1) human life shall be deemed to exist from conception, without regard to race, sex, age, health, defect, or condition of dependency; and (2) the term "person" shall include all such human life. Recognizes that each state has authority to protect the lives of unborn children residing in the jurisdiction of that state .

It further amends the federal judicial code to remove Supreme Court and district court jurisdiction to review cases arising out of any statute, ordinance, rule, regulation, or practice, or any act interpreting such a measure, on the grounds that such measure: (1) protects the rights of human persons between conception and birth; or (2) prohibits, limits, or regulates the performance of abortions or the provision of public funds, facilities, personnel, or other assistance for abortions.

If elected, Ron Paul will stop the killing of pre-born children. That is why I am praying for his success!

Virginia GOP Abandons Loyalty Pledge

Praise the Lord! I can now vote for Ron Paul in the primary without making promises to support a pro-abortion candidate. The UPI has reported that the GOP in Virginia has abandoned loyalty pledge. Now, if we can just get a candidate, then president, who will do what is right . . . In the mean time, I'M PRAYING!

Loyalty Oaths?

The Daily News Record and other news agencies have begun reporting that the Virginia GOP will be asking presidential primary voters to sign an oath that we will vote for the republican nominee next fall without exception.

This is TOTALLY MESSED UP! I am a conservative voter who loves my country in spite of some of the stupid things we do. In most of my local elections, I can usually find a republican candidate that I can support; but I haven't voted for a republican presidential candidate in years. This time, however, I would happily vote for Ron Paul and was planning on voting for him in the primary; but I cannot knowingly become a liar to vote for Ron Paul. I suppose I will show up at the polls and refuse to sign the oath . . . We will see if they will let me vote or not. (I think this is probably a ploy specifically to discourage Paul supporters, knowing that most who would vote for Paul are honest men and women.)
