Which is why these 5 traitors should be accorded removal priority. We need to find out who their most competitive opponents are and start supporting them with donations big time and early.

Someone did, and posted it; for the life of me, I can't find it...and I've been looking for about a half-hour.

I will...but it's almost like it vanished (or I'm just so tired I don't see it); I forget who posted it. Someone you know, though. I'll keep looking. He posted some good observations on it, too.

Three Very interesting Senators still have primaries.

Frist of Tennessee - August 3rd

Chafee of Rhode Island - September 12th

Snowe of Maine - June 13
Imagine the Impact of Frist losing his seat? As well as
Chafee and Snowe.. RINO stampede. This is where to apply
pressure on the Senate to get with the Program. If there are
suitable Conservatives that can get elected we would be so
much better off its crazy.. and we wouldn't have to flirt
with giving over power to the Dems!!!

Now, we need someone from each of the three states (TN, RI and ME) to brief us on the candidates and who has the best chance of defeating each of these traitors.

I agree; that would be a good start. Off the top of my head, I don't know anybody in those states. I'll see if I can figure out who is (there used to be a list for FReepers in different states, but I think that "system" has changed).

I hope this doesn't jangle anyone's theology . . .

Rarely but occasionally I've very definitely had the clear instruction from The Lord to either stop praying for someone or to not start/bother at all--very sternly. And it's a chilling, sobering instruction to imagine someone being past the point of no return with God.

I can say that I've never had that type of impression, but I've had that feeling. But, I always think to myself, where there's God, there's hope and even if it seems futile, there are many for whom I still pray.

I certainly still pray for many for whom it seems futile, too.

But in the rare cases where Father God insists I not, I try hard to obey The Father.

I teach high school economics, history, psychology & sociology. The Psychology text states that the purpose of psychology is to attempt to predict & control human behavior. The sociology text is LOADED with references to globalism. I had my students COUNT the number of times variations on the word global(ism) was stated in a single chapter (approx18 pages) and the count was about SIXTY TIMES. The point I wanted to make to them is that much learning takes place during repitition. The sociology text is state adopted. That means every secondary school sociology teacher is using the same text by mandate. They have no choice.

From speaking to my colleagues in this subject I have determined that most of Miami-Dade County has signed onto the full agenda. OTOH, I'm diverting from the text to teach my students how to SPOT an agenda...ANY agenda when one is run on them. I do this by pointing out that everything is a potential subject. When all sides of a subject are discussed it becomes an issue. But when only ONE SIDE of a subject is discussed, that subject usually becomes an AGENDA.

Typically the fomentor of an agenda only wants to push said agenda because he or she wishes the class to act in a certain way in the future....or not to "act" at all. This can be sharply illuminated when alternative sides or viewpoints are posited only to be met with extreme hostility or derision. This is the common thread in the classrooms of higher learning today. Especially the university underclassmen. However, by that time, the public school curriculum has usually done their job in lockstep except for a few mavericks like myself.

Thanks for opening the minds of your students and giving them a chance to see what's going on. I was reading your profile page and liked seeing this:

"You'd be surprised at the general reactions of students once they see how badly they have been conned by teachers, clergy and even parents their whole lives. I make them do the research and discuss the various agendas in all that we cover. I find that truth often (not always, but mostly) wins."

I thought she was one of the good ones. She probably IS still better than any of the DIMRATS running but, sheesh, to be that on board with the globalist plans is really yucky.

Aiiiiyiyi!!!!

This reminds me of those 4 famous words, "maybe it will go away". How many times have we picked the lessor of 2 evils? I am just glad I won't be voting for her as I don't live in Florida. Do you think the Republicans will always be voting the lessor of the two?

Your post is excellent. No doubt, your students will remember you some day when that agenda becomes a reality. The word globalism or a variation is used 60 times in 18 pages. Unreal!

Just curious, are you teaching the definitions to the words "secretariat and ministers"? Are these words used?

The puppet masters have spent many decades setting it up so that we have little choice but to further their aims regardless of which . . . figure heads we vote for.

I have increasingly been convinced at deeper and deeper levels . . . that the most damage we can do to the enemy is per the following:

1. Establish and maintain the closest possible relationship with Almight God through The Son by His Spirit.

2. Pray for our leaders, our nation, our neighborhoods, our families, ourselves as never before.

3. Not just pray in some sort of mamby pamby way but DO REAL SPIRITUAL WARFARE according to the Biblical pattern of pulling down strongholds of the enemy through prayer . . . . and if led and able, through prayer and fasting.

4. I realize that some folks consider me the height or depth of lunacy hereon. But I've seen plenty to confirm my construction on reality so it rarely effects me THAT MUCH. In any case, I have been QUITE SERIOUS about praying that the likes of Shrillery, Scuba Teddy et al be removed from public life by the hand of God Almighty. Sometimes, I just pray that their reaping of what they've sown will come home to haunt them many times over ASAP. If led, I may pray that certain enemy forces involved with some specific person or issue be bound and silenced unless and until they are remanded by Christ to the pit forever. I may pray that Holy Spirit be loosed in a given situation about a given issue or problem to minister God's wholeness, will, purpose and blessing.

5. The weapons of our warfare are not carnal--Scripture so instructs us. The most horrendous aspects of the fierce battles we are in are truly spiritual battles. Satan and his forces are gearing up to spread as much death and destruction as he can get away with upon God's favorite Creation. He knows his appointed time is short. He's been setting this stage for millenia. Fighting his forces with carnal means just helps him.

6. Of course we must vote as rightly as we can discern to do. Of course we are right to work hardest in the primaries. Of course we are right to keep as many HYPER-true-believer-GLOBALISTS--i.e. THE DIMRATS out of power as possible. Those on the otherside--the RINOS are quite bad enough.

7. But let us not delude ourselves that our puny carnal efforts--no matter how massive, well intentioned or even well funded--let us not fantacize that they will win the day. They won't. These battles will be won first and foremost and finally in the prayer closests of countless spiritual warriors. AND SUCH BATTLES ARE ALSO WON IN THE RIGHT LIVING CHOICES OF THOSE WHO CALL GOD THEIR GOD. When we behave and choose as God would have us behave and choose, we do the enemy camp great damage. And, we are also then blessed with God's best guidance, provision and protection.

9. (TO ANY that feel it fitting): The light is getting brighter and more intense. And the darker is getting darker. If you have not consciously chosen--it's getting late--choose this day whom you will serve:

--God or the fallen angel lucifer.

--God or your hedonistic pleasures played like a piano by lucifer and his goons.

--God or satan's incarnation in the world ruler.

--God or your own delusions of independence and personal power--also manipulated masterfully by the dark lord and his goons.

Good, or evil.

Light, or darkness.

Life, or death.

The battle, the real battle left the field of DIMRATS vs GOP long ago. It's still worth it to throw as many DIMRATS out as possible and keep as many conservatives as possible in any realms of power by supporting the GOP. There's no alternative. But let us not be deluded that doing so will restore Constitutional government in the short run. They are too outnumbered within the GOP as well as in too many power centers and institutions outside of "normal" politics.

I believe that the next two elections--2006 and 2008--with possibly 2010 will be the last "normal" elections this nation will see in anything like it's present form. We'd best do our best to stand up and be counted on the side of right and righteousness while there is opportunity.

And, many times, we would be wise to speak the truth to those we know will not be able to hear it when spoken. Events will, at some point, start happening so rapidly and dramatically that individuals, families, communities will be swept into a moment of decision like never before in their lives nor the lives of anyone they know. Your words of truth may be all that rescues them from death, destruction and the pit as Holy Spriit in that cirsis situation reminds them of your words of truth.

This is not a time for cowardice. We must stand up and be counted--for the Constitution, for our Nation--but especially for whatever God calls us to stand up and be counted for at a given moment.

The enemy's camp through feminism has shredded the balls of far too many men in our Nation and world. Too few seem to know how to stand for anything except another beer and their divine right to the remote control.

But this era begs for men to be men and for women to be mighty women of valor like Queen Esther, as well.

All are being weighed in the balance. Coming up short must increasingly be NOT AN OPTION.

And yet, on our own; in our own strength, we can do no better than to come up short. But with Christ's Spirit within us; doing His will; aided by His angelic host--WE CAN OVERCOME EVERY TIME, BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB AND THE WORD OF OUR TESITMONY.

Some have wistfully commented on occasion that they wish they could have been born in simpler times yet more dramatic times--perhaps Roman times or the times of knights and ladies etc. when there was a real chance to be a man more actively, dramatically, making a real difference by their own hands. Idealized fantasies of bygone eras are not overly fruitful.

But this era will increasingly have opportunities aplenty to stand up and be counted a man--a true man; a woman--a true woman, of valor, of true stature, to shine as never before in the true service of the True King.

The mighty exploits of our era will herald down through countless ages as those who Love God give their all for Him and His Kingdom. Nothing else will matter. We must, as Christ said, lose our lives for Him to save them IN HIM and by Him.

I have had someone I respect a lot and am inclined to trust, to assert that President Bush is very firmly, if not always overtly, on the side of right and justice against the puppet masters. I pray so. But certainly we can strengthen his hand toward doing right for the Constitution and our Nation by our prayers for him and for our Nation.

But most of all, we can do so by walking as close as possible with God and obeying Him to the letter. Then our prayers--IN HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS--WILL AVAIL MUCH.

In any case, while there is any light left at all in a darkening world . . . let us work diligently, faithfully, wisely, efficiently . . . the night is coming.

A greater dawn will follow. But first, a rather horrible night is lurking on the horizon.

Agree, this has been going on for years and years. My goal in the next election is to find a "conservative" regardless of party affiliation. I just don't want to be duped again.

I wholeheartedlyl agree with #1, in maintaining the closest possible relationship with Almighty God through the Son and Spirit. Yes, I agree with you about prayer and the power of prayer and the need to pray for our leaders, nation, families, neighbors and ourselves as never before.

Your post is very powerful. I agree that Satan and his forces are at work but our best weapon is prayer.

This is not a time for cowardice. We must stand up and be counted--for the Constitution, for our Nation--but especially for whatever God calls us to stand up and be counted for at a given moment.

This bears repeating. Thank you ever so much for your post.
