God Bless America and protect all souls from the breath-taking evil of the Obama-Clinton cabal.

There’s something special you can do on this Independence Day, the last one before the cabal backing Barack Obama’s third term through Hillary Clinton gets to change July 4th to ‘Global Citizen Independence Day’.

It starts by opening your windows and letting all negativity go flying out into the summer breeze making it truly gone with the wind.

Mark July 4, 2016 as the one when the heart-rending song, ‘God Bless America’ was turned into a fervent, year-round prayer.

It’s ironic (because she’s Canadian), but, I really really really love Celine Dion’s version best, the one she sang for the concert for victims of 9/11. Brings me chills just thinking about it.

Irving Berlin. Here’s the origin:

From Wikipedia

“”God Bless America” is an American patriotic song written by Irving Berlin in 1918 and revised by him in 1938

“God Bless America” takes the form of a prayer (intro lyrics “as we raise our voices, in a solemn prayer”) for God’s blessing and peace for the nation

Berlin was born on May 11, 1888, in Tyumen, Russian Empire. He was one of eight children of Moses and Lena Lipkin Beilin. His father, a cantor in a synagogue, uprooted the family to America, as did many other Jewish families in the late 19th century. In 1893 they settled in New York City. As of the Census. As an adult Berlin admitted to no memories of his first five years in Russia except for one: “he was lying on a blanket by the side of a road, watching his house burn to the ground. By daylight the house was in ashes.” As an adult, Berlin said he was unaware of being raised in abject poverty since knew no other life.

Tsar Alexander III of Russia and then Tsar Nicholas II, his son, had revived with utmost brutality the anti-Jewish pogroms, which created the spontaneous mass exodus to America. The pogroms were to continue until 1906, with thousands of other Jewish families also needing to escape, including those of George and Ira Gershwin, Al Jolson, Sophie Tucker, L. Wolfe Gilbert, Jack Yellen, Louis B. Mayer (of MGM), and the Warner brothers. When they reached Ellis Island, Israel was put in a pen with his brother and five sisters until immigration officials declared them fit to be allowed into the city.

We need to recognize and be thankful when God does bless US.

Im in South Atlanta Ga. It is extremely hot and dry, very dry. Some fools are praying for rain. No! God knows what he is doing. He is blessing us.

If it rains mosquitos multiply and then Zika multiplies.
We should thank God he knows what is best for us.
