I really enjoy poetry...seems spiritual thoughts find their expression in it.

Thanks for checking in. Hope your back is better. Have you been able to walk your dog?

Outstanding! Happy Easter
We take so much for granted.
I can't help mentioning, on the topic the way global warming gurus set themselves up like prophets. They call for an awakening, to the apocalypse coming. (The pride of Nebuchadnezzar and all) They use kids in ads to appeal to our "spirts". Enuf.

But the spiritual awakening, that I believe continues, is out of their grasp and goes ignored by MSM as unreal or unimportant. If we could just garner politicians’ attention like modern "prophets" have.
Have a happy Easter.

No I haven't been walking him the past couple of days. I had to work on Thurs and came home feeling half crippled. I've spent a good deal of time on the heating pad which helps.

Your comment on my blog about RedNanny having her own freak show is too funny. She is making the biggest fool of herself. The pictures of her are beyond belief. She looks like she's standing attention to the Arab flag in the one on TH. Gunny has a picture of her in a scarf. She should have covered her whole face in order to not embarrass everyone.

Yes, Global Warming has become the religion of the Left. They ignore the Creator and worship the creation. The future of planet earth is in the Creator's hands, not man's...

Happy Easter, and God bless!

Ode to RedNanny

There once was a woman named Nanny,
Who said she was the world's best Granny.
She went to visit Assad and kiss his fanny,
Now, she's just a dummy named Nanny.

She lost her cool and grabbed for power.
But, she made a terrible slip by this trip.
She no longer is the sweetest granny,
But, a crone who needs a spanking on her fanny.

Not my best but it's late. Trying to make a funny.
LOL

Don't you wonder what Hill is thinking of all this? She's got to be wondering if this is helping her cause, and then there's Obama raking in the dough...I bet she is quite nervous about things.

Ha! She looks like a fool, she's the enemy tool.
That's good Sheila.

Hill must be wailing in the mansion at night seeing all the attention Nan is getting and taking the spotlight away from her. I love it. And, oh yes, Obama raking in so much money must have given her an Excedrin headache.

This has got to be one of the funniest races for POTUS I've ever seen. So much going on and so much foolishness.

I think with Nan making such a dunce out of herself she is not doing much to further the cause for women in high places. So, Hill might not like that.

Condi conducts herself in a respectful manner but these women haven't taken any notice of her and how she handles herself I guess.

Ah, the dims and their idiocy. I will say they provide some good laughs. At first I was burned up about Nanny going to Syria, but she has come under fire from everywhere so now I just laugh.

Rules of Hilleiress

Number one: Don't stand in her light (or upstage anywhere)

Number two: Don't interfere with her money sources.

3-And don't stand too close downstage either.
Obama broke `em all
But we do know everyone else gets rules or regulated. None apply to her. (She can absorb anyone’s light or money she chooses, whenever she wants)
Last rule: everything I say is the final word.

I hope his light will continue to shine upon you, until we are all in his presence.

Pelosi wants to become the one who makes policy, but she is only one of 535, the President is the one who makes foreign policy not any of them.

Could be that if they don't continue to deny him it might make their lot in life better.

I saw your comments over at Pep's about schooling...I worked hard for vouchers out here on the Left Coast...but it failed...and even if it had made it some ACLU fanatic would have taken it to court.

We need to get out and vote in droves all over the country and win back a majority, and get the White House so we can get the job done for our kids...even though I don't have any of my own, I worry about this issue...the government schools are indoctrinating future global warming fanatics...I admire those who are homeschooling their kids. They do an awesome job!

Those on the left, in the left blogs, the Democrat Senators and Congressmen, are to invested in their Bush hate to see that anything he does [or might do-or has done] could be good for the country or the world.

They believe that only they have the answers onlt their policies can help us.

Their BDS is blinding them that the economy, and the country is doing good.

Think how the Dems and their MSM allies would carry on if a Republican Speaker did what Nancy did. He-- look how they reacted to Newt, when he said or did anything.

Beaten republicans stay beaten.!...in only 2 years, Kerry can accuse the Swift boat vets of lies. Hillary Clinton said "i don't recall" over a hundred times..and she's a viable candidate for President..The American public forgets sooo fast.And DEMS are shameless. achhh.

It is a comfort to know there is more than the here and now, and that Easter means hope for the future, joy and peace, in the midst of turmoil...

It truly is amazing what these people on the Left get away with, when the Repubs get thrown out of office, or resign over lesser things...

Maybe this is a wake up call for our side, that we can't afford to hand the reigns of power over to the enemy within...

Yes, the proverbial contrast, as I see it. I don't slap the term evil on many in particular. (I realize it is over used) But in her, I think it applies.

But we are reminded that there is nothing new under the sun. I do think she'd soon substitute herself as god. And then there is that pride, like Nebuchadnezzar. But we may all loose - big time- if He removes his hand from us.
They've chased the real Savior away, huh?

I don't know how much you know about the National Popular Vote Bills that are being introduced around the country.

It would be an agreement among the states to elect the president by national popular vote, if passed by enough states [enough=states with over 270 electoral votes]. If your state votes for one person and the national popular vote is for another person [and your state signed on to this agreement]
then your state would cast its electoral votes for the person who won the national popular vote.

Check their site
http://www.nationalpopularvote.com/index.php
in California a Carole Migden is set to introduce SB37 in the 2007 session. I feel this is a terrible idea. You can check the site to see the progress of this idea across the nation.

This should be opposed at all costs.

A small nation which gave birth to the Messiah is at the center of controversy in the world...and her enemies are legion, but God has protected her for a reason.

Only God knows the future, but we can certainly see the signs of the times...
