  • WTC: 9/11 Tribute (Music Video - In Reverse)

    Dedication WTC via You tube ^ | Uploaded on August 18, 2006 | DedicationWTC
    Links to both videos: I found this first video several years ago on one of the anniversaries of September 11. Who would not want to do some part of the past in reverse...personal or historical? WTC: 9/11 Tribute (Music Video - In Reverse)This second video was made 11 years prior to September 11, 2001. It features the British band Depeche Mode singing atop one of the towers. Seeing the enormity of both buildings...I can feel it in my heart. It makes me feel apprehensive, but also in awe. They were amazing structures. I revisit these two videos and others...
  • Ivanka Trump bashes Obama (Trump needs to use her as a surrogate)

    Check out this Hannity clip from 2010. Donald really needs to utilize Ivanka as a surrogate and cut some TV ads with her. It is a direct retort to the war on women argument against him when they see this accomplished well spoken woman he raised.

    Facebook | The United States Marine Corps
    The Marine Corps Facebook page has an #AskPOTUS post thing going to solicit questions for Obama to be held tomorrow. It’s up now. It’s pretty plain how it’s going to go. It went up 30 minutes ago. The first question was “Obama , why are you destroying America? #ASKPOTUS”. It’s pretty much going like that. Post count is starting to heat up. It won’t be pretty, but it will be fun. :-)

    Vanity (A good one)
    Our governing system no longer serves its intended purpose, to secure the blessings of liberty. Any casual read of the Constitution reveals our government’s wholesale departure from it. Congress gaffs off or assigns its duties to craft legislation, determine spending, ratify treaties, oversee the executive branch, and regulate the judicial branch. Not being content with rewriting statutes, Scotus increasingly elevates itself above God; its Obergefell v. Hodges ruling is only the latest outrage among many. Executive branch agencies reflect the will of one man, Obama, and not congressional statutes. In response, there is a small but growing minority of Americans...
  • Only a Revival of Christianity Can Save European Civilization.

    09/08/2015 11:11:20 AM PDT · by pinochet · 53 replies
    We are witnessing before our very eyes, the last days of European civilization. The slow collapse of the Roman Empire began in 410, when a group of Germanic barbarians led by Alaric the Visigoth, attacked and looted the city of Rome. The collapse of the Roman Empire finally came in 476. We are now seeing a new barbarian invasion of Europe, this time by third world barbarians. The communists who run the European Union want to invite all of the third world people into Europe, because third world people will vote for the "mainstream" communist political parties in Europe. The...
  • Vanity-Immigration, such an important issue, where do the GOP Candidates stand?

    09/08/2015 9:19:04 AM PDT · by Cubs Fan · 8 replies
    Yes there are many issues and they are ALL important But I believe this is America's most important issue. Since it is, IMO, the one with the most potential to destroy the country in the shortest amount of time. The political process is already poisoned with it, and unless something is done the stituation will only get worse. It's hard to tell which candidate believes exactly what, and whether they can be trusted, or are they just posturing. Maybe people could post here about which candidates have what positions. And whether they are sincere.

    When there was a major civil disobedience struggle going on over a Christian school in Nebraska back in the early 1980's, I remember folks using the 'snail mail' system. I broadcast for a religious radio and television operation reporting on the situation and told listeners about sending empty milk cartons to a jail where seven fathers of the school's students were jailed for contempt of court for 97 days and the pastor of the church for hundreds of days. I went down to the post office and sent one myself. For Kim Davis's unjust jailing, I'm not sure what to...

    Many left wing sites are gloating that Kim Davis will not be able to use GoFundMe to raise money for legal fees and other expenses. As you probably know, Kim has taken a stand, and refuses to issue same sex marriage licenses, as this conflicts with her Christian beliefs. As I pressumed, Ms Davis was ready to go to jail due to the moral teachings of her faith. I would like to help support her cause, but I don't want to be scammed midst all this emotion and turmoil. Are there any legitimate organizations collecting money for this Christian Lady...

    Self ^ | Robert J. Seyko
    THE BIG PICTURE: A PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE OF FIRST PRINCIPLES I’ve always been a “big picture” kinda guy. I would rather read a general overview of history rather than a detailed analysis of the Battle of the Bulge. I would prefer reading a concise, insightful summary of human nature rather than the most in-depth study of child development. I would prefer watching a Discovery Channel program on The Big Bang than one on the solar system. For me, the Big Picture is just more fun to think about than the little stuff. My approach to the presidential debates is no different....

    This is something that has been bugging me for years. Why should English speaking children be held back because the powers that be insist on forcing non-English speaking kids into a class they are nowhere near ready for thereby holding all those who are ready for it; back. It defies common sense. Is there any reason these non-English speaking children cannot go to a separate school for a year or more until they learn English well enough to go to an American school even it takes them more than a year or two to catch up? It's NOT the kids...

    Et Tu Bret Bair? Most of us had been under the impression that he had journalistic ethics. Baier was considered one of the few at Fox who could actually pull off straight news. However we now discover that he had a pre-planned strategy, with an actual script, aimed at physically ejecting Trump from the debate. This proves that the Fox back room had it in for Trump before the debate dust-up where Megyn Kelly tried – and painfully failed - to make a name for herself by using her role as moderator to portray Trump as a misogynist. The...
  • World on track for warming 'far above' 2C target: analysts

    AFP on Yahoo News ^ | 9/2/15 | Mariette Le Roux
    Bonn (AFP) - Inadequate national targets for curbing climate-altering greenhouse gases meant emissions would be "far above" the level required to stave off disastrous global warming, analysts warned Wednesday. Instead of the UN-targeted ceiling of two degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) of average warming over pre-Industrial Revolution levels, the world was on track for 2.9-3.1 C by 2100, according to the Climate Action Tracker (CAT), a tool developed by a consortium of four research organisations. "The climate targets so far submitted to the UN by governments collectively lead to global emissions far above the levels needed to hold warming to...

    Trump and Cruse make a great teem! Trump and Cruz will balance each other. Trump is the more liberal; Cruz is more conservative. Together they will keep the Executive Branch of Government on track! Both want to make America Great Again! They will be fighting certain elitists that have taken control of both the Democrat and Republican parties. You can call them The Trans National elite -- as they 'transcend' Nationality But, whatever name you give them, they ARE the promoters of the open borders policies, that we've been seeing for so many, many years.

    Their martyr, that spawned weeks of looting, arson, and rioting, Mike Brown, was false. He was a criminal thug who tried to kill a cop who defended his own life. In NYC they chanted "what do we want? Dead cops. When do we want them? Now." Two cops were murdered in NYC. At a protest armed New Black Panther members shouted “The revolution is on… Off the pigs,” and “Oink Oink… Bang Bang!,” in Texas, and then a deputy was executed in Texas. Just one day after the white deputy was executed in Texas, at a Minnesota fair BLM memebers...
