Head in the Sand?

Several friends and myself were having a lively exchange on Facebook the other day about George Bush and President Obama. I made my usual point that one was Progressive and the other Progressive Lite and I did not really care for either. One girl with whom I went to high school made the usual text book put down of GWB and said "Obama is A-OK with me!" I cannot help but wonder if she really believes that or whether her head has been in the sand for the past year. Even if you are not conservative, I do not see how any logical thinking person cannot see that the current leadership (not just the executive branch) in Washington is bad for our country.

Restoring Honor

Best wishes to all attending the Restoring Honor Event at the Lincoln Memorial on Saturday. My friend Wes is en route as I type. Contrary to what the lame stream media is reporting, this is not a political rally. As Glenn Beck has said, leave your signs at home...just bring yourself, your children and celebrate and honor God and America.

Good Feeling to Know

I understand as a Christian that simply attending a local church does not make one a Christian anymore than walking into a garage makes you a car, but I am happy to say that, at least at this point, all my children, their spouses and their children are attending churches. Only God knows the heart, but I believe my kids are in the faith, and it is a good feeling to know that their families are in situations where they will learn about the Lord and the grandkids are learning a lifestyle where God and church are included. We tried to raise our children the best we knew how at the time, and maybe some of the hard work and heartache paid off.

Another Tidbit

Disease and mental disorder is of Satan.

Today's Tidbit of Truth

Islam is a disease and liberalism is a mental disorder.

Pet Peeve of the Day

Time now for “Pet Peeves” or “Things that Really Tick Me Off”.  On any road or highway of at least four lanes width, the inner or left lane is considered the passing lane.  In other words, in theory, faster traffic uses this passing lane while slower traffic uses the right lane.  So why is it almost every morning on my daily commute to work I am stuck behind someone in the “passing” lane who obviously wants to travel slower than me?  The only logical answer I can come up with is that most of these individuals have a left turn in their future and I assume they feel the need to stake a claim on the inner lane miles before their destination.  I am looking for a left turn myself, but I travel at the posted speed limit or just above.  Of course they are moving at 10mph less than that or slower.  Do I pass these NASCAR experts on the right?  No, I patiently ride their bumpers until they make that inevitable left turn or until I reach my destination…whichever comes first.  Call it stubbornness or insanity, but in the left lane I stay!
