Having said that, have you been to WorldNetDaily.com lately? Check out some of these headlines. Each one has a link to the story it goes to, and yes, each one is as messed up as it sounds.
2. Alba's seduce-the-vote campaign Actress makes raunchy, topless, bondage ad to get young people to polls "Sexy actress Jessica Alba stars in a raunchy, topless, bondage ad campaign designed to get young people to vote Nov. 4." (Mangdiddles is a rated-G website, so I won't put the advertisement photo on here. If you are so inclined to see it, click on the headline above... it is pretty raunchy for a presidential vote)
"The Times said Gibson "went on to take a second part of her comments out of context. Palin had asked the group to pray 'that there is a plan, and that plan is God's plan.'"But Gibson dropped her reference to praying, the Times said, and instead quoted Palin as saying the war was God's plan."
Amie Parnes reports from Lebanon, VA: Obama poked fun of McCain and Palin's new "change" mantra."You can put lipstick on a pig," he said as the crowd cheered. "It's still a pig.""You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called change. It's still gonna stink.""We've had enough of the same old thing." The crowd apparently took the "lipstick" line as a reference to Palin, who described the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull in a single word: "lipstick."
-----------------------------------------
I would like to think that he wasn’t referring to Sarah Palin, well, because that would not be the “change we need” now would it?
For the record, you can wrap a politician preaching “change” in a nice suit, and even with a flag pin, it doesn’t make him a patriot. A true patriot makes decisions that sometimes go against the majority, simply because it is the right thing to do. A true patriot visits wounded troops – even when the cameras aren’t allowed in. A true patriot knows that sometimes going to war is the right thing to do – not to take lives, though it is an unfortunate byproduct, but to end regimes that are bent on taking the lives of innocent people. A true patriot would never call himself a citizen of the world while giving a speech in a foreign land – especially one that killed 6.5 million Jews – he would call himself an American first... and he would police his official website's blog entries that call for putting the Jews back in the oven.
Like I said, you can wrap Obama in a fish suit, and he will still smell like a pig… or you can wrap a communist up in a suit with a flag pin on it, and he’s still a Communist… or you can wrap a communist up in a donkey suit, and you will have today’s liberal… or something like that.
Biden is coming out of his politically correct closet too, but I gotta go for now...
UPDATE: I guess my comments touched a couple of liberal's nerves. Allow me to address each point, however silly it may be.

Well speaking of pig... I am wondering if you are not on the extreme right side here...
My Reply: Yes, I am on the "extreme right." I am not ashamed to be on the extreme right either. That is why I write about the stupidity and moral deficiency of the extreme left.

Wow! What excellent journalism you conduct. You're quoting a blog that quotes a blog that quotes a blog. Why anyone would take you seriously is beyond me. Stick to the God business. Leave the politics to the experts.
My Reply: I conduct no journalism here, nor do I claim to. I was quoting a blog from Ben Smith from the Politico, that was a direct transcript of what Obama said. I saw it on the Drudge Report, and the whole story is here, on the Wall Street Journal. By the looks of it, I have already done more research than Katie Couric has done in 15 years, and she gets paid to spew her opinion.By the main stream media's standards, I could be a professional.
Coincidentally, your final statement identifies the problem with liberals in America; "leaving it to the experts" is not only a recipe for elitism run amuck, it is nowhere to be found in our constitution. As elected officials, they are my employees as well as yours - lets treat them as such.

McCain is misguided and Palin hates America. Just ask her 'pastor,' who hates it too.
My Reply: ...huh? Are you watching the same race? I think you have the Irreverant Jeremiah Wright (AKA: AmeriKKKa) mixed up with Palin's pastor; who by the way is a respectable man who loves Jesus and our country. I have met his family, and can say this with no regrets.
Wow, I never knew JFK, FDR, Carter, or Clinton, "Free trade maniac creating NAFTA and selling globalization" were commies. You can wrap a blogger preaching about how he came back from the brink and wrap it in religion yet still find nothing but stupid stereotypes.
My Reply: What in the name of intelligent argument are you talking about? The first sentence of your comment makes no sense to me at all. All I can make out of it is that you rightly recognize Carter and Clinton as Commies. As for FDR and JFK, I don't think either one of them was a Commie... and I don't think they have anything to do with my original post. Nor does NAFTA. I am glad that you took the time to read a lilttle bit of my testimony though, and had the courage to put your name on your comment.
In summary, I would like to go over a couple of things that we have learned by this exchange.
1.When the truth is presented, and it makes the opposition look like fools, the opposition lash out at your integrity, your character, your pastor if you have one.
2.When said opposition gets too angry to type, they shouldn’t. Their ability to argue a point with logical rhetoric disappears as soon as the finger hits the key.
3.Three out of four liberals would rather comment under the name “Anonymous” then to risk hearing back from the person they just confronted. This, in my opinion, means that they are not only lacking a real argument, but they are weenies.
I know You're with me You're Spirit breathes in me even when I don't feel you there I know you love me But sometimes its hard to see after all, I'm only a man
Open my eyes, its hard to see am I even close to where i should be should I run or should i stand? either way, just hold my hand
You alone are worthy and I give all my praise to thee You are the Rock on which i stand i know you love me and sometimes its all that i can see after all I'm only a man
You're on my mind constantly You alone have set me free in ways that I don't understand You lead me by the hand You lead me by the hand
(photo from CNN.com) Yes, I've seen her, and yes... she rocks.
If Chuck Norris was a lady, Sarah Palin would kick her butt.
She is not only a spectacular politician, but she is a Christian, she's pro life, a mother of five, a hunter (who knows how to field dress her own kills), she's attractive, and she will be a bright spot in history books for years to come.
...unlike Barack Obama, who according to this guy is more than just a piece of history, he is a miracle.
What kind of headline would you expect newspapers nationwide to trumpet if America won the war in Iraq and destroyed al-Qaida there?
Maybe something like this? "VICTORY IN IRAQ! AL-QAIDA SMASHED!" Perhaps even old-fashioned newsboys on the street corners, yelling "Extra, extra! Vic'try in Iraq! Read all about it!"
Don't hold your breath. You won't see such headlines in American newspapers or leading network news broadcasts – even though, believe it or not, by all credible accounts America has indeed won the war in Iraq!
You see, the "mainstream press" isn't really too excited about America winning the war right now. Why? It's just bad timing: Success in Iraq doesn't fit the media's overriding agenda for the next couple months, which is to further discredit George W. Bush and Republicans, and to assure that Barack ("We must end this failed war") Obama is elected president and as many Democrats as possible are installed in Congress, legislatures and statehouses nationwide.
There is, however, at least one media entity that is telling the whole story of America's stunning success in Iraq, and that is WND's elite monthly Whistleblower magazine, in the inspiring September edition, "VICTORY IN IRAQ!"
Ironically, 2008 is already becoming known as "the year the media died," because of its astonishingly biased treatment of the two major presidential candidates – network anchor groupies tagging along with Obama on his European campaign trip while all but ignoring McCain; the New York Times running Obama's op-ed on Iraq, but refusing to run McCain's response the following week, and so on.
But there's another area in which the media died this year – namely, coverage of the Iraq war.
Sure, while things were going terribly and it looked like America was losing, news coverage was constant – and unrelentingly negative. Bad news – IED attacks, political setbacks, accusations of atrocities on the part of U.S. soldiers, statements by Democrat leaders condemning the "failed" Iraq war – led the evening news night after night.
But recently, Americans haven't heard very much about Iraq. Reason: The news is good. In fact, as "VICTORY IN IRAQ!" dramatically documents, the U.S. is winning – big-time.
When you read "VICTORY IN IRAQ!," you'll find out why:
Ryan Crocker, U.S. ambassador to Iraq, says, "Very clearly, the insurgency is in no position to overthrow the government or, really, even to challenge it.
A rare Associated Press story on America's success in Iraq reveals: "In Baghdad, parks are filled every weekend with families playing and picnicking with their children. That was unthinkable only a year ago, when the first, barely visible signs of a turnaround emerged.
Army Col. Tom James, a brigade commander on his third combat tour in Iraq, says: "We've put out the forest fire. Now we're dealing with pop-up fires.
Gen. David Petraeus' says, "Attacks in Iraq hit a four-year low in mid-May and … Iraqi forces were finally taking the lead in combat and on multiple fronts at once – something that was inconceivable a year ago.
Independent embedded journalist and former Green Beret Michael Yon, reporting from the front lines, says, "By my estimation, the Iraq War is over. We won. Which means the Iraqi people won."
Iraqi citizens who formerly were intimidated by al-Qaida atrocities into joining and protecting the terror group now take up arms and shoot al-Qaida terrorists in their midst, saying they're sick and tired of the terror and are not going to take it anymore.
Following are just a few highlights of the many articles – accompanied by amazing photos – in "VICTORY IN IRAQ!":
"How the media bury victory" by David Kupelian, exposing how the "mainstream press" has managed to disguise the story of the year
"McCain's rejected op-ed": Now you can read Sen. John McCain's gutsy editorial on Iraq policy which the New York Times refused to publish
"The surge in Iraq: 1 year later" by Lt. Gen. Raymond T. Odierno, in which America's next senior commander in Iraq reveals how the tides of war turned
"U.S. soldiers befriend Iraqi children" by Matt Sanchez, describing from the front lines how Iraqi kids are unafraid of the "gentle giants" in their midst with body armor, dark glasses and weaponry
"Saddam's forces boasted of moving WMD to Syria before war" by Ryan Mauro, whose interview with the former U.S. overseer of Iraqi prisons reveals that 40 incarcerated ex-military Iraqis confirm transport of Saddam's weapons of mass destruction prior to invasion
"Don't let the Democrats disenfranchise our troops" by Melanie Morgan. Believe it or not, once again America's servicemen and women are in danger of having their votes not count this November. As one Marine official put it: "Thousands of service members who try to vote will do so in vain"
and much more
"I think you will find this issue of Whistleblower enlightening and uplifting," says WND founder and Editor Joseph Farah. "Sometimes it seems the news doesn't give us much to smile about. The turnabout in Iraq should provide every American and every freedom-loving, peace-loving person in the world reason to cheer."
How are we to abide in Yeshua’s words? Were His words new, or was he merely telling us what God the Father had to say? We believe that it is of the utmost importance to know what His words are, especially if we are called to obey and abide in them! In America, obedience and submission have almost become derogatory terms. Our Master, Yeshua demands that we obey Him! We, as disciples (Talmudim) are required to not only know the words of the one we serve, but we are to live them. Our Messiah’s words are to become to us a way of life. We serve a merciful and gracious God, whose love is larger than anything we could ever know. But there is more to our God than His mercy; He demands and deserves our obedience. The gift He has given us as believers is free, but we owe Him nothing less than our entire lives. Yet again, this week our Savior claims to be God. Yeshua told the Pharisees “before Abraham was, I am.” I submit to you today that He STILL IS. Let us all take a moment to think about this, one of the most profound statements in the entire bible. He still is the great I AM. Shabbat Shalom!
In the past, when talking to other believers, I have avoided conversations that involve Messianic or Hebraic Roots topics unless they are brought up by the other person. I have found that most people who bring the subject up intend to argue, or just get hateful and nasty about it. For this reason, I have kept quiet.
Not any more.
There is an urgent need for Truth in the Christian world today. In almost every direction, my wife and I see people who profess to believe in Jesus, yet have almost no visible signs of His presence in their lives; usually because they refuse to acknowledge His instruction. I am not saying that we have arrived, nor am I saying that we are perfect representations of what a Christian marriage should look like. We have struggles just like everyone else. I will say however, that we are surrounded by people who say they love Jesus, and their lives are falling apart at the seams simply because they refuse to obey Him. That is where our problems differ. She and I typically disagree on the details of how to fulfill a commandment in the Torah - not whether we should acknowledge itin the first place.
I had a conversation this week with a person who told me that they actually feel sorry for my oldest child because I have taught him not to eat pork, or any of the other animals God tells us not to eat in the Torah. This person, who is a Christian, told me that there is no reason that a kid should feel guilty for "eating a big hunk of Spam if he craves it – it is sad; he should know that that is OK, and that he is covered by grace.”
Let’s look at this for a moment.
Number one, I will never apologize for agreeing with God’s word, which clearly tells us that eating swine flesh is an “abomination.” God’s food laws in the Torah are never changing, just like the rest of God’s word.
Though my son is covered by God’s grace, I believe that it would be a grave mistake to teach him that it is OK to break God’s commandments because we are “covered by grace.”
I believe that grace is a gift; not a garment used to cover my vices.
This typifies the problem with modern Christianity in America; not only is there is no shame in our actions, but we have transposed our will over that of God Almighty’s. American Christianity has reduced the commandments of God into categories of degree. If we, as Americans don’t think a certain commandment is wrong, it becomes acceptable among Christians to break that commandment. This goes for mainstream topics as well as “Torah related” commands. For example, there is a growing number of Christians who believe it is wrong to spank their children, and just as many who believe they are not supposed to talk about Jesus in public. We have openly gay ministers! Meanwhile, you can hear the latest dirty joke from your “Christian brother,” go to the river boat casino, or even support abortion, and never be confronted by other believers. It has become wrong to call out your brother, even in love.
We, as believers are in no position to allocate God’s commandments to greater and lesser degrees; that is, as long as the commandment starts with “Do not” “you shall not” “don’t” or “Think not.” Jesus tells us the two most important commandments, and guess what… both are fulfilled by “obeying God and keeping His commandments.”
I say all of that to say this:
Mainstream Christians typically believe that it is silly to think that eating bacon is a sin. I submit to you today the fact that if Jesus believed that this was a silly commandment, and refused to obey it, we would all be lost in our sins, still seeking a savior. Thank God He was obedient, even unto death.
Let that sink in, Christian…if Jesus had eaten just one pork sandwich, one slice of bacon, a single shrimp, crab leg, lobster tail or alligator tail, we all would die in our sins because he would be DISQUALIFIED FROM BEING OUR SAVIOR. The Torah tells us not to eat those things, thus making it a commandment. “Do not eat” is every bit as serious as “Do not kill” – not because they are equally bad, but because they are prefaced with “Do not.”
It is NOT a silly topic, and we, as believers should never take any of God’s commandments lightly.
“Do not” still means “do not,” regardless of what is written after it.
From a party of liars I guess this is to be expected. Though, I can not for thelife of me figure out why any rational, thinking American would fall for such BULL.
My opinion is this: The Democrat (Communist) Party has made their choice, and the hardliners have to get behind that choice, or face retribution form the party leaders. Of course the party leaders are all powerless, washed up degenerates, but that is beside the point.
------------------ DENVER, Colorado (CNN) -- Sen. Hillary Clinton introduced herself as a "proud supporter of Barack Obama" at the Democratic National Convention on Tuesday as she called on her party to rally behind her former rival.
Read the rest here... if you have the stomach for it.
Nancy Pelosi has been quoted as calling Obama "a leader that God has blessed us with at this time."
Ahem...
Excuse me, but isn't that a lot like having these guys endorse each other?
Has anybody seen the sales for Nancy's new book on Amazon? 2 months, and she has sold less than 6,000 copies. Why has she sold so few copies? Because she has absolutely no integrity in the job she has been given. Though her endorsement is worthless, it is very telling - if she is so positive that Barack is a blessing to us all given by God Himself, then we can safely assume the exact opposite to be true.
Georgia and Russia have signed yet another cease fire.
You'll have to forgive my pessimism;
but I think I just saw a pig fly by...
UPDATE: It looks like they have kept to the agreement... sort of. Evidently, the Russians are still digging in their positions, but they are preparing to pull out on Monday (tomorrow).
I was wondering how long it would take for Mikhail Gorbachev to speak out on the Russian war. He is still alive... looking a bit like Danny Devito, and sharing many of the same political views.
Of course, it was Georgia's fault according to him, but isn't it always the other guy's fault when you are a communist?
I mean really - look at Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the Democrats saying "Lets punish Big Oil; Lets punish the speculators; lets punish the lenders," etc. Never taking into account...
Oh, wait - I was talking about communists wasn't I? Silly me, I always get them mixed up. As I was saying, the communists are notorious for lying to the public. I have a book on my shelf titled "You Can Trust The Communists... To Be Communists" and it is still absolutely true, I might add. You can just as easily throw the acronym KGB in there, or DOC - take your pick. The point is that they have made lying a science, and you can trust them to be just exactly what they are - communists. There is an old saying from the USSR that goes like this; "In the Soviet Union, you can't even trust the past" and with good reason: Even history isn't safe from their lies. Remember the beginning of Orwell's 1984? "He who controls the present, controls the past. He who controls the past, controls the future. This is not limited to the Motherland either, just step into any Liberal Arts college, and you will hear a much different past being presented in the classroom then what you were likely taught.
The sacariest thing about what I am hearing about this war is that Old Russia sounds a lot like the New American Left.
Here in the US, we are getting a trickle of stories with Liberals saying that we can't respond without being hypocrites because we invaded Iraq. That is the mindset of the Left - there is no good and bad, it is all relative. No righteous or evil, just opinions. I don't know who started this newest war, and don't claim to. I do know that I was trained extensively by the United States Army on the Soviet's tactics, and this is right out of their playbook. Right now, somewhere there is a Russian general plotting a way to take the next small satelite country... right after he figures out how to blame the US for it. The Cold War is back, and colder than ever.
I am going to bed. It is yet to be seen if I will get any sleep.
Man, I stop in the office for lunch, only to read the news and see that we have sent an aircraft carrier to Georgia... for humanitarian aid.
Between you and me, this makes me a little nervous to say the least. Last week's Torah portion ended with the words, "Ye shall not fear them: for the LORD your God he shall fight for you." Of course, in its context, Moses was speaking of the enemies of Israel as they were preparing to take the Promised Land, but I find it comforting none the less. Isn't it good to know how the story ends? The good guys always win.
As you all know (all four of you), I am a big supporter of Charles Johnson at the Little Green Footballs. I think that there is no better place to find a balanced view of Islamic terrorism and the lack of coverage of it by Main Stream Media. However, I believe he has "thrown me under the bus" so to speak when it comes to my adherence to the Word of God.
Charles has taken an almost militant stance on the subject of Intelligent Design, and those of us who believe that we were created by a loving God, and not evolved form nothing like Darwinism's proponents would like us to think.
Though I highly admire Charles' ability to find and blog important stories, I am a bit disappointed with where his anti-Creationist stance is taking his site. I go there 3 or 4 times a day... or at least used to, to see what the 'Big Three' refuse to report. I do not need to be attacked for my beliefs each time I want to see the news, so I have chosen to delete the link from my Firefox toolbar. Of course it is his blog, and his right to blog as he seems fit. It was a hard decision to make, but in the end my patronage is not worth it.
I don't know about all of the people that support Creationism - I had no idea that Muslims were Creationists, yet I have been lumped in with the likes of terrorists and freaks because I believe the words of the bible. When I think about it, it makes sense that Islamic people would be Creationists, because they claim to believe the Torah; that is beside the point though. As a Messianic believer, I believe what the bible says - God created everything in 6 days, and rested on the 7th. That is the heart of the issue; I believe it, and Charles does not. For one reason or another, he has chosen to slam each of us who take the Word of God at face value, and I refuse to apologize for it. Muslims do not believe in abortion... but that shouldn't condemn all Pro Life people.
Here are some points on the issue from my perspective:
1. The God of Israel (LGF supports Israel, just as I do) claims in His Word to be the one that created mankind in the form of a man and a woman. They were formed from the dust of the earth (Adam) and given the breath of life from God Himself. 2. The fact that Muslims believe and even support Creationism does not make the concept evil any more than Hittler's like for chocolate makes Hershey's bars evil. 3. Despite the media's attempts to make it fact, evolution is still a theory, and should be taught as one. It is represented as fact; from science text books to math books, "millions of years" is the mantra. 4. Scientific evidence for the transmutation of species is a myth... unless you count things like the donkey, which can not reproduce. You will never see an ant evolve into a bumble bee, or a mole, or a flower, or a monkey. 4. Scientific laws, if that is what evolutionists are basing their argument on, condemn the theory of evolutin and the Big Bang. Entropy and the second law of thermodynamics in particular deny the plausability of such occurances. 5. The laws of mathematics and information still say that nothing times nothing equal nothing. All information has to have an informer. If you see a neetly kept garden in the middle of the forest, logic and science tell you that it had to be planted and tended to. 6. The fear of admitting that there is a God is ordinarily the #1 roadblock to admitting these truths, because with that admissin comes a responsibility to put God in His proper place in our lives - at the top. 7. I will ere on the side of God's Word any day of the week - even if it means getting rid of my link to a favorite news source. In the end, I do not have to defend God - He is fully capable of taking care of that Himself, which coincidently is the very reason that there is a state of Israel today in the first place - His Word is True.
Wow. I have been gone for quite a while. I have been working long hours in the field, and haven't been able to post for a couple of weeks - it looks like i have missed:
Obama crying 'racism' for Mccain using Hilton and Spears,
and the list goes on.
There were some good things that came out of the last two weeks though - the release of the most recent "The Word Is Grace" Podcasts on John chapter 7 and the first 11 verses of chapter 8. You can download them here:
So there - you can not accuse me of withholding the good news form a stack of dismal reports.
I have a retraction to make also - not one that I blogged about, but one I mentioned to some friends. I said that I believe that Russia was possibly luring Israel into attacking Iran while they were tied up into another war-front, thus opening the door for Russia to legitimately attack Israel in the future. This of course would line up with Ezekiel 38 and 39, but it doesn't seem to be the case. I have said before, and will say again that I am a little paranoid when it comes to world politics. I do not think it is in Israel's or America's best interest to trust Russia, or any of their allies. Perhaps what we are seeing is the beginning of Daniel chapter 7, where the Bear has three ribs in its mouth saying, "Go, kill and devour." Is Georgia the first of three ribs? At any rate, that is typically how my brain functions in matters like these. Bear with me, I am merely speculating, and posting my thoughts - I am not prophesying or claiming to know what will happen.
