Dear Congress: Are you INSANE?

October 29, 2009 · 6 Comments

To the Congress:

One of the definitions of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting to get different results the next time.

I don’t know the origin of this piece but it is absolutely right!

  • The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775 – you have had 234 years to get it right; it is broke.
  • Social Security was established in 1935 – you have had 74 years to get it right; it is broke.
  • Fannie Mae was established in 1938 – you have had 71 years to get it right; it is broke.
  • The “War on Poverty” started in 1964 – you have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to “the poor”; it hasn’t worked and our entire country is broke.
  • Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 – you’ve had 44 years to get it right; they are broke.
  • Freddie Mac was established in 1970 – you have had 39 years to get it right; it is broke.
  • Trillions of dollars were spent in the massive political payoffs called TARP, the “Stimulus”, the Omnibus Appropriations Act of 2009… none show any signs of working, although ACORN appears to have found a new source: the American taxpayer.
  • And finally, to set a new record: “Cash for Clunkers” was established in 2009 and went broke in 2009! It took cars (that were the best some people could afford) and replaced them with high-priced and less-affordable cars, mostly Japanese. A good percentage of the profits went out of the country. And the American taxpayers take the hit for Congress’ generosity in burning three billion more of our dollars on failed experiments.
  • So with a perfect 100% failure rate and a record which proves that “services” you shove down our throats are failing faster and faster, you want Americans to believe you can be trusted with a government-run health care takeover system? 20% of our entire economy?

With all due respect Congressman;

ARE YOU NUTS ????

Obama, Schumer Amnesty and the National Association of Evangelicals

October 13, 2009 · 6 Comments

Thanks to a good friend Sandi, I received this disturbing info this morning. Not entirely surprising since most of these are liberal denominations and have veered far from Biblical Christianity.

Obama, Schumer and other extreme liberals are pushing for total amnesty for ILLEGAL aliens..

The NAE (National Associaltion of Evangelicals) is unanimously and in a loud voice in support of amnesty for 15-20 million illegals. I presume we can believe the President of the NAE when he made his statement.

I quote from the article at NumnersUSA.com

Check and see if your denomination is included.

Leaders of most of the nation’s evangelical Christians made a shocking endorsement of illegal-alien amnesty today in Senate testimony.

Their spokesman — the head of the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE) — said high immigration is increasing membership in evangelical churches and is good for the economy.

Polls have shown that evangelical Christians in the pews are the MOST likely to OPPOSE amnesty. If you are one of them, you may want to contact your church leaders immediately.

The NAE phone number is:  202-789-1011 —   Fax number is 202-842-0392

The NAE email address is:  executivedirector@nae.net and  govaffairs@nae.net

Please be respectful and thoughtful in your comments to the NAE. I would suggest that only evangelical Christians make the contacts.

NATIONAL EVANGELICALS PRESIDENT SAYS PRO-AMNESTY SUPPORT WAS UNANIMOUS

Rev. Leith Anderson, president of the NAE, was invited by Sen. Schumer (D-N.Y.) to testify in favor of the Senate immigration chairman’s push to create amnesty legislation this fall.

Sen. Schumer asked Rev. Anderson if many of his colleagues agree with his support for legalizing 12-20 million illegal aliens and increasing the legal immigration far higher than the 1 million a year current level (the two key components of “comprehensive immigration reform”).

Rev. Anderson answered that there was no dissent in adopting the pro-amnesty resolution on the 75-member NAE board of directors.

ZERO dissent!

SOME OF THE DENOMINATIONS & ORGANIZATIONS BEHIND THE AMNESTY PUSH

Rev. Anderson described the NAE as:

. . . a network of 40 denominations comprising more than 45,000 local churches located in every congressional district and every state. The NAE membership also includes evangelical universities, seminaries, ministries, local congregations, and individuals.Here is the list of the denominational members:  http://www.nae.net/membership/current-members

Notable among the members are:

  • With a few exceptions, most of these groups will likely disagree with the Biblical  Salvation message here: Eternal Life For You

    The United States Has Given Up Control Of The Internet

    October 4, 2009 · 9 Comments

    This should shake everyone out of apathy.

    //

    As of September 30, 2009, Christians,, Jews and conservatives of all stripes who write or post to the Internet will be under the gun – so to speak – since the Obama administration has relinquished control over the Internet (developed by American ingenuity and not AlGore).

    Imagine Russia, China, Islamic nations, and all manner of evil empires – large and small — having a say in the administration of the Internet. Read it and weep. Thanks to my good friend “Always on Watch” blog,

    The United States Has Given Up Control Of The Internet

    Please Believe in Christ and then share the Gospel of Jesus Christ NOW, The time is short!!
