Four More Years?

How many of you know someone who is out of work, struggling to feed their family and pay for housing?  With 15% plus unemployment all of us know people out of work, maybe in our own family or maybe even you the reader.  Before you jump on my percentage of unemployed, remember, that many individuals have fallen off the unemployment rolls and are conveniently not counted by the White House.  Reality is never good in an election year.
Why is it that in a country as great as the U.S.A. there are so many American families jobless and so many kid homeless or going to bed hungry?  Why does Obama and Hillary plan to go through with 1.6 billion dollars in foreign aid to Egypt?  The White House persists on giving aid to countries full of individual who hate America, burn our flag and consider America to be the Great Satan while allowing the American economy suffers.   Americans do not need more welfare handouts, Americans need the opportunity to work and be self-reliant.
Think about what 1.6 billion dollars could do for small business owners across America.  After all it is the small businesses in our communities that provide jobs and help the economy of their communities, cities and states.   Give the small business owner a break by less regulation and a reduction in the cost of hiring employees.  No, Obamacare will not help the small business owner hire more employees, in fact, it may put an end to some small business opportunities.
Obama’s idea of stimulating the economy and helping out Mr. Average American business owner:  Bail out the auto industry, bail out the banks, bail out huge corporations.   It is funny how none of that actually helped the average American.  The truth is that many American companies have been forced to move their manufacturing to China, Mexico or Hong Kong because of the high cost of doing business in the U.S.A.  All of this has added fuel to the already high unemployment fire. 
Do you want four more years of :
ü  broken promises = lies and deceit
ü  companies being forced to move jobs to foreign countries in order to afford to stay in business= even higher unemployment
ü   a greater devaluation of the U.S. Dollar which = high living cost
ü  2013 New Obama tax plan = less money in your pocket
 Then re-elect Obama.
 BUT If that is not want you want, then use your influence with family and friends and vote OBAMA OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE!

Freedom of Speech

Do you stand by our First Amendment rights of freedom of speech?  Do you really believe in freedom of speech for all Americans or just the speech you agree with as is the case with liberal groups in America? Do you believe in the freedom of expression?  In past rulings, the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that pornographic art even if it includes religious symbols is allowable under First Amendment rights. 
Everyone seems to have overlooked the significance of 9/11/12 being the date of the Libyan slaying of U.S. Ambassador Stevens and his staff.   Under the guise of protest against a movie on YouTube that displays Mohamed in a bad light, Al-Qaeda and The Muslim Brotherhood started violent attacks against American Embassies in many of the Muslim ruled countries.  These attacks did not just happen as the movie has been on YouTube for several months..  There was talk on the internet days before the violence began.  Anyone who really believes that the movie caused this “staged rage and violence” is not facing reality.
President Obama managed to state "I strongly condemn the outrageous attack on our diplomatic facility in Benghazi," Obama said, adding the four Americans "exemplified America's commitment to freedom, justice, and partnership with nations and people around the globe." while continuing his extremely important campaign for re-election.  Is this all that Obama can do and say for the murder of four American citizens?
Obama has a quandary since he supports Egypt and its new “democracy” saying "I don't think that we would consider them an ally, but we don't consider them an enemy," Obama told Telemundo in an interview to be aired Thursday night. "They're a new government that is trying to find its way. They were democratically elected” as if this makes everything all right.
The violence and rage over the film also presents a test for Egypt's new Islamist president, Mohammed Morsi, who has not condemned the riot outside the U.S. Embassy in Cairo or said anything about the offending film. The protest was by mostly ultraconservative Islamists.  So much for the “religion of peace moderate” Muslim.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton found it politically correct to blame a movie for the Muslim rioting, rather than The Muslim Brotherhood, Al-Qaeda, Salafists, etc...  Obama’s statement used similar language, thereby marginalizing freedom of speech by depicting it as a form of religious intolerance.
 It may be hard to imagine, after all we live in America where we enjoy freedom of speech.  Currently we are free to say what we think about any given subject but for how much longer?  When will Americans wake up and realize that the Muslim world “hates Americans and sees us as the Great Satan”.  Muslims will not rest until they see all citizens or the world under Sharia law; under which there is NO FREEDOM at all.

Criticism of Religion = Violence

How big is your God?  Is your God powerful enough that He can stand up to criticism or derogatory remarks?  Can your God take care of Himself or does he need violent jihad because he is weak and ineffectual and desires his followers to cause fear, show hatred and perform murder?  It would seem that Mohamed calls for all Muslims to hate non-Muslims (especially Christians and Jews) and there is a NO-TOLERANCE level for any form of criticism of the Koran or Mohamed. 
Can you imagine that scenario in the United States?  This nation, founded on faith, liberty and freedom, allows freedom of speech and freedom of religion.  Our First Amendment rights allow ALL citizens to express their opinions without fear of reprisal.  Every second a U.S. citizen uses the name of God or His son Jesus Christ as a swear word, in a derogatory manor.  Teachers in colleges all across our country slam Christian students’ belief in Jesus Christ and the Bible at every opportunity the teacher gets. As a result of this bullying, how many American teachers have been shot and killed or how many American universities have been blown up? 
To a Christian, tolerance means that EVERYONE is FREE to DECIDE for THEMSELF WHAT THEY WANT TO BELIEVE: it is an individual’s choice.  To an atheist the First Amendment means that they have freedom FROM religion.  In other words, tolerance for atheists means that they do not want to be reminded there is a God; therefore, no Christian should be able to show their faith in public either by displaying symbols, celebrating holidays, wearing faith declaring t-shirts, handing out literature in school or praying in public places.
Muslims on the other hand do not want ANYONE ANYWHERE to speak, write or demonstrate in action on film anything that displays their ideology, the Koran or Mohamed for what it really is.   In other words, they use any criticism of their ideology as an excuse to spew hatred, fight or kill those with a different view. 
The murder of four American citizens in Libya yesterday is horrible and tragic.  A truly senseless killing of innocent Americans for a trumped up cause, MURDER by mob!  The flag destruction in Cairo yesterday and Yemen today should make American blood boil!  Do Christians hate Muslims?  Speaking as an evangelical Christian I can say that NO Christians do not hate Muslims.  I personally feel pity for Muslims as they have been raised with a mindset of hatred for Christians and Jews, brainwashed from childhood to become individuals with the mob mentality easily stirred up by their cleric.  Women fare the worst treatment in the Muslim culture: damned if they do and damned if they don’t.  The slightest provocation is used to react with violence.  Muslims demand that every citizen in the world respect their beliefs, the Koran and especially the prophet Mohammad.  Such respect has to be earned and frankly nothing in the Muslim behavior around the world has thus far earned that respect.  My God can handle anything that humanity throws at Him, I guess the Muslims, followers of Mohamed as not as fortunate with their god.

Dems Use Fear to Gain Women's Votes

Are you Pro-Life or Pro-Choice?  Do you believe that the medical professionals should be forced to perform procedures that are against their conscience?   The Obamacare program is currently at war with the Catholic Church over this very matter since the new healthcare laws force abortion services to be offered by employers.  Employers who do not agree philosophically with the matter of abortion will be forced to provide insurance for abortion coverage. 
The Democratic Convention is using  FEAR and LIES to turn uninformed American women against the  Republican Party and Mitt Romney.  Pro-abortion activist, Sandra Fluke in her Primetime Convention speech claimed that the pro-life Republicans would “allow pregnant women to die”.   She had no facts just her opinion. Her speech was full of lies and many American women will be taken in by her “knowledge” because these women will take Ms. Fluke’s word for it and not bother to check out the facts.
At the same time, the president of Planned Parenthood declared that pro-life advocates are “committed to ending insurance coverage for birth control”.  Again the pro-abortion activists are taking the giant leap from abortion to birth control in an effort to put FEAR of the Republican Party into women voters.
Planned Parenthood commits 40% of all abortions in the U.S. and abortion accounts for 51% of their clinics income.  It is no wonder why they fight every issue that would limit abortion.  The Arizona Legislature passed a bill that would make an abortion after 20 weeks illegal.  Planned Parenthood immediately slapped Arizona with a lawsuit.  The actual reason behind the bill; Abortions performed after 20 weeks are horrendous torture for the BABY (not fetus) because by this point the nerve endings feel pain. 
Planned Parenthood would have women believe they are just exercising their right of birth control or gender selection when selecting abortion.  If ultrasounds were mandated, lots of women would realize that the “fetus” is really a living breathing BABY!  Abortion should NEVER be used for Birth Control since there are many over the counter and prescription options available. 
Republicans are for the most part pro-life; however, they are NOT AGAINST BIRTH CONTROL.  Be sure you know the facts when voting in November.

Vote By Democratic Convention Delegates

How many of you watched the Democratic Convention last night?  If so, how did you like the “democratic vote” to amend the party platform to reinstate Jerusalem as the capital of Israel?  Ted Strickland former Governor of Ohio read the amendment to the party platform.  Reacting to Republican criticism, Barrack Obama requested that the party platform add God and Jerusalem as the capital of Israel  by amendment.  Convention Chairman, Antonio Villaraigosa, mayor of Los Angeles, asked the party delegates three times for a yea or no vote.  After the third vote, Mayor Villaraigosa looking puzzled and unsure of what to do finally ruled that the motion passed.   The delegation reacted, showing their discontent.  Listening to the video, one could not honestly tell which vote was louder.  It sure sounded as if the matter should have been put to a paper vote.   It was truly a scary display of Democratic democracy at its best.
Today, the Democratic Party stands for same-sex marriage and homosexual/lesbian rights; abortion on demand paid for by taxpayers regardless of conscience; totally open borders with billions spent on free handouts to illegal immigrants while American citizens go hungry; and since the Jewish vote is needed, the capital of Israel had to be declared as Jerusalem.  All this drama makes one wonder if the wording will be reversed after the election.
Since the Democrats had to “vote” to put God and Jerusalem back into the platform, it certainly gives pause to wonder how any evangelical Christian could vote for the Democratic ticket.  Seriously, if this describes you, give it some thought. 
The Word of God is pretty clear on the issue of marriage, since God himself defined it as between one man and one woman.  The idea was to be fruitful and multiply.  God planned for a mother and a father.  Unfortunately today in America not many homes have both parents raising the children.   Same sex marriage is certainly an abomination to our Heavenly Father and His plan for humanity. 
Under the guise of a woman’s right to choose, millions of babies have been aborted since the Roe versus Wade decision.  Of course, terminology is used to help the woman decide to rid herself of the undesired growth in her body.  Planned Parenthood would never refer to the growth as a baby and they would never call it murder but what an abomination abortion is to our Heavenly Father who states that children are a gift from God. 
The United States has had a long history of supporting Israel.   In the past Israel has depended on the United States for monetary and military support.  The United States has been quick to stand with Israel in times of trouble and relations with Israel have benefited both nations.  Obama’s interest lies with the Muslim regime and he has been quick to snub the Israeli Prime Minister even during visits to the White House.   Can you trust the Democrats with America’s future for the next four years?  Remember their democratic way of passing their own party platform reforms.  Remember the values of the Democratic Party do not measure up to God’s standards.

Obama Thinks He Deserves a Second Chance

Should Americans Give Obama A Second Chance?  Remember the White House represents “We the People” and the President works for us.  So let’s look at it from the viewpoint of an employee merit review.
When Mr. Obama took office in 2008 the Democratic Party controlled Congress.  President Bush had to struggle with this issue his last two years in office.   When Obama became President in 2008:
Ø  National Debt $9 trillion
Ø  Unemployment rate was 5.27%
Ø  15% unemployed workers out of work 52 weeks
Ø  32 Million on Welfare
Ø  23.5 million Americans on Food Stamps
Ø  Drilling permit approved at 116%
Ø  Gas price per gallon $3.02
Ø  Tax Cuts for American Middle Class
Ø  Congress Controlled by Democratic Party
By the ninth month of Obama’s fourth year in office:
Ø  National Debt $16 trillion
Ø  First U.S. Sovereign debt downgrade in American History
Ø  Unemployment rate at 8.3%  (23 million unemployed, 9 million have left the workforce)
Ø  30% unemployed workers out of work 52 weeks   (1 million no longer looking for work)
Ø  46 million on Welfare
Ø  48 million Americans on Food Stamps
Ø  1.2 million fewer jobs past four year, small business failures due to government regulations
Ø  Drilling permit approved at 36%
Ø  Gas price per gallon $3.83
Ø  Forced Tax of National Healthcare Program

Yet according to President Obama the private sector is doing ok.   President Obama’s own words condemn his performance in office.  Follows is a portion of Senator Obama’s speech to Congress on March 20, 2006 “The fact that we are here today to debate raising America’s debt limit is a sign of leadership failure. It is a sign that the U.S. Government can’t pay its own bills. It is a sign that we now depend on ongoing financial assistance from foreign countries to finance our Government’s reckless fiscal policies. … Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that “the buck stops here. It is too bad that he forgot his own wise words once he became President.

Can Americans – “We the People” afford to allow the advance of big government, out of control spending, and lack of concern for the U.S. Constitution to continue for another term?  According to the Democratic Party, America is better off today than four years ago.   Oh Really?  Show us the proof!  Obama is attempting to make abortion rights, gay marriage and immigration his campaign focus.  What happened to National Security, Jobs, and relaxed regulations on drilling and small business start-ups?

 After four years of blaming President Bush for everything, Obama wants us to forget that the “Buck Stops Here” and that he failed the leadership test and he has had it easy with a Democrat controlled Senate!   “We the People” deserve better leadership than Obama can provide.

Obamacare, Women's Healthcare and Seniors

Women of Arizona do you really think that Romney is out to destroy your healthcare?  Obama is at a loss to stand on any of his failed programs and since he has nothing to show for his four year term he is trying to scare the average American woman into believing that Romney is bad for their health.   This could not be farther from the truth. 
Do you want to be forced to go against your conscience?  Religious freedom is at stake!  Should employers (including hospital, schools and churches) be forced to provide for healthcare procedures that are contrary to their religious beliefs?  Up to now, these institutions have not provided these services to their employees, so where has women’s health care been compromised?   Romney believes in religious freedom and the right to say no to providing procedures that are against one’s conscience.  Obama and his healthcare plan forces all to participate.
Recently Obama removed BILLIONS from the current Medicare program in order to fund his Obamacare program.    Obama has “promised” that you will be able to keep your doctor.   What if your doctor does not want to keep you?  What if you doctor STOPS practicing medicine when Obamacare takes effect?   Thousands of excellent and caring physicians have stated that they plan to leave healthcare rather than have a government non-medical panel tell them the best care plan for their patient.
Radiologist Dr. Jill Vecchio stated that Obamacare goes against the American Cancer Society guidelines.  As a practicing radiologist under Obamacare, she will not be able to offer yearly mammograms to women over forty.  Obamacare will allow mammograms every other year up to the age of 74 THEN NO MORE.  Obamacare will indeed ration care for seniors over 74.  Anesthesiologist Dr. John Ammon stated that in order for you to get the care you really need a NON-MEDICAL government panel will review the expense of your care versus how many “good” years you have left.   It would seem that mid-seventies is pretty much the cut off for spend big bucks to keep you alive and well.   If this does not scare you then you must be deaf, blind or living in fantasy land.
Using the Fear and Smear tactic Obama is trying to scare American women in order to win them over to his side in this election.   Do not be deluded into thinking Obamacare is best for this nation.  Vote NO on OBAMACARE and vote YES for ROMNEY.
