Voters Clobber Ebola Party REPRINT

From November 5, 2014

President Barack Hussein Ebola and Senate Majority Leader Harry Ebola got their disease-importing, open-borders, Global Warming  butts kicked yesterday. A few Democrats survived who would otherwise have been sent packing, thanks to third-party spoilers (shame on you, Louisiana) and the self-indulgent types who voted for them. But by and large, it was a good old country thrashing.

Thank you, Lord.

So we’ve been given a chance, maybe a last chance, to stop the piecemeal murder of our country and its purposeful deconstruction into a socialist, bankrupt, lawless, culturally degraded basket case. (Let me know if I’m being wishy-washy here.)

Now we have to worry about whether the Republicans are up to the job. We’ve put the ball in their hands, and they’d better not have butter-fingers. As Rush Limbaugh put it today, this election does not mean America has, overnight, fallen in love with Republicans.

Republicans must overcome their paralyzing fear of the nooze media, their penchant for venal deal-making, and their addiction to playing it safe and trying to get away with doing nothing. They must realize that we took power away from the Democrats to stop the Democrats, and that’s the job we’ve handed to the GOP. And they’d damn well better do it.

Here’s what we want from you, guys:

*Kill any plan to award any kind of amnesty to illegal aliens.

*Stop the appointment of any more left-wing federal judges and department heads.

*Repeal Obamacare in its entirety; and if that’s not possible, gut it piece by piece.

*De-fund federal policies and programs that are hurting the country.

*Rein in the lawlessness of the IRS, the DOJ, the NSA, the EPA and other federal agencies that have lent themselves to partisan political games, and punish those responsible.

*Take an axe to incontinent federal spending.

It’ll take courage, hard work, and perseverance–qualities foreign to many leaders of the GOP–to undo the havoc which six years of Obamaism have wreaked on the country.

But boy, oh, boy, they’d better do it. Because they will not be given a second chance.

Today’s Big News! REPRINT

From April 4, 2013

Let’s see… There’s a crazy man in North Korea threatening to nuke our military bases. The truth about Obamacare (“You have to pass it to find out what’s in it!”–Pelosi) is coming out bit by bit, all of it worse than anybody ever imagined. The Middle East is in flames. The European Union is about to collapse.

So what’s today’s big news, dominating the front pages of the newspapers, and the canned AP newscasts on the radio every 20 minutes?

The Rutgers basketball coach has been fired! He used homophobic slurs! Full-scale investigation demanded by New Jersey politicians and media!

OK, I live in the New York media market, and on those days Mayor Bloomberg doesn’t get around to banning something, they don’t know what to write about. But this is just ridiculous.

The legendary basketball coach at Indiana, Bobby Knight, frequently–one might say habitually–acted like he was on angel-dust, and the national news media loved him for it. But I guess he never made homophobic slurs.

Gimme a break.

 

My Sabbath REPRINT

From June 1, 2014

I don’t like to address contentious issues on the Sabbath day. (And if your sabbath is Saturday instead of Sunday, that’s not an issue for me.)

For one thing, it’s a way for me to remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy, as God has commanded. For another, I’m up to my eyeballs in abominable news all week, and I need a rest. It’s not that I’m lazy or cowardly, and want to hide from the battle. Josephus records that even Judah the Maccabee avoided battle on the Sabbath, except when the enemy literally forced it on him.

By keeping the Sabbath, we proclaim the Lord’s sovereignty over all things, and His sufficiency for all things.

But what about church? I don’t attend a church. Some would say I was un-churched, but I don’t see it that way.

No–it’s just that the church that I belong to is not in a building. It consists of a large group of fellow Christians, most of them on the Internet, who share a devotion to Jesus Christ Our Lord. We “meet” here, within the social media, in a chat room full of Christians on a popular game site, and even on our respective forum pages on an international chess players’ site. We meet every day of the week, not just on Sunday. We can’t sing hymns together, but we have some mighty good discussions. Many of them also attend a church: but the local church in which I was raised has gone over to the dark side, and I don’t trust any of the others. My old church has a sign outside that says “A Welcoming and Affirming Congregation.” I am sure I don’t want to find out exactly what it is that they’re affirming.

The burning issues can wait until tomorrow. For now, I think I’ll go back outside and enjoy more of this beautiful, cool, sunny spring day that the Lord has made.

Hawking: Only World Government Can Save Us REPRINT

From March 10, 2017

Science is always right about everything. Stephen Hawking is a prominent man of Science. Therefore Stephen Hawking is always right about everything. Or so the liberal logic goes.

Having jettisoned his belief in God, Hawking has climbed aboard the Doom & Gloom Express. First he says we’re all gonna die unless we colonize other planets. Global Warming gonna kill us. Then he says there might be aliens who’ll wipe us out. Or else Artificial Intelligence (created by blockheads) will do it.

This week, during a visit to India, he opined that we’re all gonna die unless we get a world government, which will prevent war and rein in “our aggressive instincts,” which are “hard-wired into our genes by Darwinian evolution,” blah-blah-blah ( http://zeenews.india.com/science/stephen-hawking-issues-warning-says-only-world-government-can-save-humanity-from-destruction_1984947.html ).

Why do scientists seem to know so very, very little about anything outside their special field of science?

World government–because everybody knows that the more power you give your rulers, the more wisely, humanely, and responsibly they will use it!

That’s their belief in a nutshell. And if you believe it, too–well, you need to get out more.

Australia’s Mystery Cats (Big and Scary) REPRINT

 

From February 18, 2013

In recent years, more and more Australians have been seeing big black cats prowling around the countryside. Many amateur videos of these creatures have been posted on the Internet.  Thing is, big cats are not native to Australia.

The cats are usually identified as black panthers–that is, leopards born black. That’s what a black panther is. Theories abound. They escaped from zoos or circuses. Men released them from U.S. warships during WWII. People are getting scared: supposedly the cats have killed cattle, horses, sheep, and other large prey. So far the Australian state and federal governments have declined to take any action.

There are a few problems with the leopard theory. 1) Leopards habitually stash their prey in trees instead of trying to eat it all at once. These Australian cats never haul their kill into a tree. 2) Black leopards are rare, but all the Australian cats seen so far are black. How come no one has seen any ordinary leopards? 3) Leopards in Africa and Asia get used to living near human habitation and often attack people. The Australian cats haven’t attacked anyone… yet. 4) A few of the witnesses, including some who managed to film a cat, have said they thought there was something not quite right about it. I have seen some of those videos online, and I concur: especially from a distance, there seems to be something funny about these cats, especially the head.  5) Very oddly indeed, no one has yet shot or trapped one of these cats. That would certainly settle the controversy, if we had an actual specimen to examine. People are always bagging leopards, but not one of these mystery cats has yet been killed or captured.

I wonder, just wonder, if they’re not leopards at all–or not even cats.

Could Thylacoleo be making a comeback? Thylacoleo, the “marsupial lion,” a nasty-looking, cat-like predator, supposedly went extinct during prehistoric times.

But did it? Did it really? I can’t help wondering.

 

 

America’s Mayor

I have always liked Rudi Giuliani.  He cleaned up New York City after years of Democrat misrule.  Manhattan had become horrible.  He did a monumental job of making New York City what it had been.  It was cleaned up, fixed up, and made into a place you would want to visit.  His medical condition now is exacerbated because of all the time he spent at the site of the  World Trade Center right after the bombings.  I truly wish him a speedy recover.

Ferocious Scary Kitten! REPRINT

From  January 20, 2017

Well, all right, maybe not that scary–but certainly pumped up to give that hanging label the what-for. These cuddly little critters were born to hunt: God created them that way. But He also made them cuddly–for which we give thanks.

God’s stuff–always good for us.

Baby Horses & Mamas

This was a test–I seemed to have fixed the problem.  Hallelujah!
