Six Year Old "Criminal" Gets Expelled: More Public School Goofiness!

This is what liberalism leads to: nuttiness. The "gun" sounds like the kind of water pistols we have in our pool for the kids to play with -- "clear plastic." What is in the mind of an adult to expell a six-year-old, ban her from school property, and threaten her with arrest if she dares to set a toe on school grounds even when her parents pick up their other children. Good grief! Can you imagine the hysteria if a child made a "look alike" gun out of his hand and aimed at the teacher? They'd probably wrestle the kid to the ground and put him in handcuffs! Two thumbs down to the South Carolina school district. If I were the teacher of that Kindergarten class, I would have taken the gun from the child and sent a note home to the parents explaining that they aren't allowed in school and asking them to pick it up. And that would be the end of it. Does no one have any common sense any more?

Black Helicopters May Be Coming to your Neighborhood!

Exactly why is the military running black helicopter drills in our neighborhoods?





Could it be they are getting ready for domestic rebellion against an increasingly draconian federal government? Will states passing laws against gun confiscation, for example, be invaded by the FEDS?

Liturgy of the Hours Increases Hope

For the past few weeks, I've been praying Morning and Evening Prayer from Liturgy of the Hours. I'm finding it gives me a big infusion of hope despite my pessimism for the future of the United States. Take today's Morning Prayer. The first psalm (87) reminds us that it's the Lord who builds the city and gives each of us our place in it. The psalm prayer harks back to Jesus weeping over Jerusalem,  "soon to be destroyed for its lack of faith." But Holy Mother Church doesn't leave us with that gloomy picture. She tells us, "He established the new Jerusalem firmly upon rock and made it the mother of the faithful" leading us to "rejoice in [our] Church."

The Canticle (Isaiah 40) shows us the power of God "who rules by his strong arm." He is no tyrant like so many worldly leaders, but a loving God. "Like a shepherd he feeds his flock; in his arms he gathers the lambs." We have nothing to fear because it's He "Who has cupped in his hand the waters of the sea...Who has held in a measure the dust of the earth....Behold, the nations count as a drop of the bucket, as rust on the scales; the coastlands weigh no more than powder." Yes those blue "coastlands" on our eastern and western shores and all the nations of the earth "are as nought, as nothing and void he accounts them."

So, let us never stop fighting the Culture of Death, but neither should we let the state of the world get us down. As Psalm 99 and its antiphon remind us today, "The Lord is king....He is throned on the cherubim; the earth quakes....He is holy, full of power."

And for the faithful who persevere, "The Lord, the mighty conqueror, will come; he will bring with him the prize of victory."

God will never abandon us and so, "Let us joyfully cry out in thanks to God the Father whose love guides and nourishes his people." Amen!

If you need an infusion of hope, pray the Liturgy of the Hours. 

Blacks Doing Worse Under Obama...

...and that doesn't even take into account the genocide of black babies by abortion! Black women are FIVE TIMES MORE LIKELY TO ABORT than white women. Do black women really care less about their babies or are they being targeted by the Culture of Death? Is the economic depression of blacks a strategy to encourage them to kill their children? Is that why Planned Parenthood locates abortion mill in black centers?  Obama has done a good job of fooling blacks into thinking that he's their man while he works hard to make sure their biggest killer increases the body toll. Wake up, black citizens, and rebel against your exterminator!

NAACP president: Black people worse off under Obama

What's Your Favorite Old Movie?

I'm reading bits and pieces from Frank Capra's autobiography, Frank Capra: The Name Above the Title. His movies have always fascinated me and I absolutely love a few of them. I think my favorite is Lady for a Day, a black and white picture about an apple peddlar in New York who's spent any money she's ever made (along with donations from her fellow "godparent" beggars) to send her illegitimate daughter to boarding school in Spain and keep her scandalous beginning secret.  Capra remade the film several decades later as Pennies from Heaven with Betty Davis and Ann Margaret, but the original was the real gem.

Capra had a Jimminy Cricket in his background, a hulking fighting Irishman named Myles Connolly who told him early on that he was the "best director in Hollywood" but wasted his efforts creating "picture postcards" when he could be making films like the "Sistine Chapel and the Mona Lisa." Here's how Capra describes one exchange between Connolly and himself:

Shocking Obama Scenario....Will Military Fire on Americans?

According to this video interview with Dr. James Garrow, Obama is creating a litmus test for military leaders. They must be willing to order troops to fire on Americans or be purged. In his second inaugural speech, Garrow says, Obama dropped all pretense of moderation in favor of collectivism"Now what you are seeing are the beginning signs of a despot. What he did in that speech is remarkable because he threw aside all the niceties and proclaimed very clearly that he was a progressive socialist....I think you no longer have a warning of what he could be, you now have full in-your-face a declaration of what he is."

Note the information about China in the video. The Obama administration is exchanging our debt for Chinese rights to American resources. Read about it here. Bush blocked it, Obama welcomes it. Why, when we import so much energy are we selling our resources to the Chinese? To keep Chinese money rolling in to fuel Obama's massive spending.

One other thing that makes this seem feasible is the massive ammo buy by government agencies. Back in March 2012, the Department of Homeland Security bought 450 MILLION rounds of .40 hollow point ammunition, a type of bullet banned for use in international warfare. Since then, they've stockpiled even more. Check it out. So what exactly does DHS plan to do with all this ammo and who will be the targets?

"You Have a Duty to Protect Yourself and Your Family"

This message is from Sheriff David Clarke of Milwaukee. Law-abiding citizens need to partner with the police to protect themselves and others. The function of the police department is primarily to investigate crimes and catch criminials AFTER THE FACT. Police aren't mind readers. They cannot be in every house in the country guarding people. Rich folks hire bodyguards and have expensive security systems to protect themselves, their families, and their property. What do you have?

I Couldn't Make the March Due to a Bout with Strep Throat...

....but our family was well represented. Only three of the adults in the photo were born before Roe v. Wade. All the rest of these dear ones are survivors of the abortion holocaust. If you are a survivor, how can you be pro-abortion? It's only by God's grace and your mom's decision to let you live that you didn't end up like one third of your spiritual brothers and sister - in the landfills and sewage systems of this once great nation!

The Survivor Generation Will End Abortion!

Pray for them! And may abortion become the unthinkable crime against humanity it is among all those who survived the holocaust.

Getting a New Hobby: Guess What

I'll give you a hint. It involves LOTS of new friends. We'll be spending more time doing it in the spring, summer, and fall than in the winter. We'll use some special equipment while we do it. And it's completely out of our current experience. If you're curious and want to see what it is, go here.
