Oh Tonk....the traitors refection on the wall makes me ill.
What miserable grandstanders!
BTT!!!!!!!
We hear you LOUD and Clear FRiend. That this MOCKERY of a Senator remains in the Senate is a slap in the face to all who died and served.
The he had the audacity to vote NO on Dr. Rice. He isn't fit to kiss the ground she walks on.
BTW, thought you might be interested in this e-mail we got today. I haven't had a chance to email the chaplan yet. But here you go. He said to distribute it.
Subject: Urgent prayer request from a chaplain in
Iraq
This is an Urgent Prayer Request from Iraq!
Please pass it on to anyone
who will pray:
As a transportation battalion, my unit will be
delivering the voting
machines and the ballots to villages and cities
throughout Iraq during
the
upcoming elections. (January 30/31) Our convoys
are prime targets for
the insurgents because they do not want the
equipment to arrive at
the polling stations nor do they want the local
Iraqi citizens to have
the chance to vote; timely delivery must occur so
that the elections
occur.
Encourage your friends and family members and
those within our churches
to pray specifically for the electoral process.
Historically, the
previous totalitarian regime would not allow
individual citizens to
vote. Democracy will not be realized in Iraq if
intelligent and
competent officials
are not elected to tho! se strategic leadership
positions within the
emerging government; freedom will not have an
opportunity to ring
throughout
this country if the voting process fails.
Announce this prayer request to your contacts
throughout your churches,
neighborhoods, and places of business. Those with
leadership roles
within the local church post this message in as
many newsletters and
bulletins as possible.
There is unlimited potential for God's presence
in this process but if we do not pray then our
enemy will prevail (See
Ephesians 6:10-17) A prayer vigil prior to the
end of the month may be
an
innovative opportunity for those within your
sphere of influence to
pray. This is a political battle that needs
spiritual intervention. A
powerful story about God's intervention in the
lives of David's mighty
men is recorded in 2 Samuel 23:8-33. David and
his warriors were
victorious because of God's intervention. We
want to overcome those who
would stand in the way of f! reedom. David's
mighty men triumphed
over
incredible odds and stood their ground and were
victorious over the
enemies of Israel. (Iraqi insurgents' vs God's
praying people). They
don't
stand a chance.
I will pray with my soldiers before they leave
on their convoys and
move outside our installation gates here at
Tallil. My soldiers are at
the nerve
center of the logistic operation to deliver the
voting machines and
election ballots. They will be driving to and
entering the arena of the
enemy.
This is not a game for them it is a historical
mission that is extremely dangerous. No voting
machines or ballots. No
elections. Your prayer support and God's
intervention are needed to
give democracy a chance in this war torn
country. Thank you for reading
this e-mail. Please give this e-mail a wide
dissemination.
Thank you for your prayer support for me and my
family. Stand firm in
your battles.
