Gay Marriage… Again?

Leave a comment

And so it begins…  And those who say, “You’re taking this too far.  It’s only a wedding.  It’s only fair.  Nothing else will come of it.”  When will America wake up?  I doubt they will before we’re in one hell of a fix and can’t get out of.  I guess that’s what you get with a ‘feel good‘ society.

The following is text from a Blaze report which came out today.

HELENA, Mont. (AP) — A Montana man has applied for a marriage license so he can legally wed his second wife.

Nathan Collier of Billings said Wednesday that last week’s U.S. Supreme Court decision legalizing gay marriage inspired him to try to force the acceptance of polygamous marriages.

He says he’ll sue the state if his application is rejected.

Collier says Yellowstone County Courthouse officials initially denied the application Tuesday. When he told officials he planned to sue, they said they would consult with the county attorney before giving him a final answer.

Collier married his first wife, Victoria, in 2000. He and his second wife, Christine, had a religious wedding ceremony in 2007 but didn’t sign a marriage license.

The trio recently has appeared on the reality cable television show “Sister Wives.”

I assume the next thing we’ll see is, “I want to marry my dog!”..??  It’s no wonder other countries think we’re a sick society..?!

Gay Weddings and Communism

Leave a comment

You’re probably wondering, what has gay weddings have to do with communism??  The gay movement has a lot to do with communism.  It is one of the communist goals for America!  How’s that you ask?

If you read the communist goals for America and focus on goal numbers 24, 25, 26, 27, and 28, you will find they all relate to unnatural sexual behavior and the elimination of religion in our country.  (Click on the link above to read those goals.)  Why?  Because if you establish rules based on man’s laws, there is no outside control of man — he can declare at any moment what he believes at that moment.  (Much like Mohammed when writing what he believed in.  As time changed, so did his mind/view.)  This is unlike if you must (through faith) follow God’s laws (the bible) which remain the same.

The implementation of a communist state in the U.S. has been a goal since 1917 beginning with initial actions by Joseph Stalin.  If you go back and read the above goals, you should see that 42 out of 45 are pretty much completed!!

What you can expect to see next is an even stronger attack on the Christian religion in this country.  Gays will go to churches searching for those who refuse to marry the LGBT crowd.  When they find one, they will sue the socks off of them!!  Then what?  They will lose their 501 3c tax exemption.  THEN, they will go out of business if there isn’t enough money to make up the difference.

America, it won’t be long before you have no rights.  You can stretch that rubberband as much as  you like, but at some point, it will snap!  And when it does, you can bet it will hurt.  We’re getting verrrrryyy close to that day.

Note:  You will find several hits on the internet if you look for these words:  ‘communist goals america’.  The communists went underground decades ago in the U.S. when they were initially discovered.  That’s why a lot of people are unaware of what’s going on and what the objective is for our country..?  In short, that objective is “the fundamental transformation of America”.  Just ask your communist leader…

IBM Layoffs — The Rest of the Story

Leave a comment

The grand old typewriter company has grown over several decades into a huge corporation employing 100’s of thousands of people all over the world.  Before the 90’s IBM was a ‘full employment’ company — you get hired, you’re there for the duration.  But around 1993 that all changed…

With the hiring of Lou Gershner (aka, the hatchet man), IBM decided to trim down a bit.  Having 400,000 employees world wide, one can fairly assume there was some ‘fat’ in the company.  So, they dumped 150,000 people!  As a result, the stock price jumped and the company looked good!  Ultimately however (over several years) they hired people back into the company and they were back up to 400,000 world wide.

Ah, but wait, there’s the rest of the story.  At that time IBM had 250,000 employees inside the U.S. and 150K in other countries.  Until recently (this year), they had 400K again.  But, the employees within the U.S. is now closer to 60,000!!  Why?  Because they can get Russian programmers as an example for 1/4th the cost of an American.  The Indians for 1/8th.  And the Chinese for even less!!  Of course we don’t care about ‘quality’ any longer.?

What is stunning is the fact that IBM refuses to report their layoffs per government order.  And to help hide their actions, they layoff a few at a time so as to not bring attention to themselves.  And from what I hear, they are significantly reducing their ‘sales’ workforce..?  I’m not sure how that works?  But then I’m not a ‘gifted’ corporate executive…

What’s your point you ask?  My point is simply this.  If America is going to reignite this country’s GDP, we’re going to need to start ‘producing something’, a LOT of somethings.  Consuming products does not make for a healthy economy.  Making things does.  It’ll be interesting to see where IBM ends up.??

Communism in The U.S.

Leave a comment

I have talked about this topic before and all too often people think me nuts (again).  I make it a point to watch people’s actions and not their words — this often leads to an entirely different perspective of an individual.

Early on in Obama’s campaign to become president he said that he liked to surround himself with communists, fascists, and anarchists.  Now the one time you’d think people would listen (and believe) to what he said and conclude that he might be a bit out of sync with the American ethos, no.  The public totally ignored those statements.

When Van Jones was identified as a self avowed communist and one of Obama’s closest advisers you’d think that the public might assume that ‘he’ was potentially leaning in that direction.  But once again, no.

Well, now we find that his closest adviser is not only a communist, but comes from a long line of them!!  Valery Jarret has finally been taken ‘out of the closet‘ — the one person Obama looks to for all decisions and tactics.

The following link reports on the FBI’s findings!!

I’ve given up on America waking up.  It’s getting to be a tad late for them to take any action.  Besides, I doubt the American public has the stomach for it..?

Daniel Webster Describes the Founders’ Traditional Goal

Leave a comment

Everyone should read the book ‘The 5000 Year Leap’ by Cleon Skousen.  (I highly recommend reading our founding documents also.)  If you think the constitution’s purpose isn’t clear, this book will clarify the intent of our founders — who knew what they were doing!

As you heard our fearless leader(?) once say, “The constitution is an outdated document.”  He believes it does not apply to this country any longer.  (Wishful thinking?)  But the following demonstrates what the founders really believed — which is timeless.  This text was extracted from that book.

… In our own day of accelerating crimes of violence, narcotics addiction, billion-dollar pornography sales, hedonistic sexual aberrations, high divorce rates, and deteriorating family life, the American people might well recall the stirring words of Daniel Webster when he spoke to the New York Historical Society, February 22, 1852:

“Unborn ages and visions of glory crowd upon my soul, the realization of all which, however, is in the hands and good pleasure of Almighty God; but, under his divine blessing, it will be dependent on the character and virtues of ourselves and of our posterity … if we and they shall live always in the fear of God, and shall respect his commandments … we may have the highest hopes of the future fortunes of our country …. It will have no decline and fall. It will go on prospering …. But if we and our posterity reject religious instruction and authority, violate the rules of eternal justice, trifle with the injunctions of morality, and recklessly destroy the political constitution which holds us together, no man can tell how sudden a catastrophe may overwhelm us, that shall bury all our glory in profound obscurity. Should that catastrophe happen, let it have no history! Let the horrible narrative never be written!“

Unfortunately, unless the present generation of American leadership returns to fundamental values, that history is being written right now.

If only our sleepy nation could wake up to the impending disaster they face.?  If only the Christians could lead the way to our more optimistic future based on strong Christian principles..?!  Once in history the leaders of this country had a vision of what is good for all through those Christian principles.  We have apparently, like a child, outgrown those views and obviously know better (than God)..?

Continuing Buildup and Conflict

Leave a comment

I receive several newsletters regarding finance, but often the authors point out world issues which can (and often do) impact finance.  One of those issues is China’s buildup in weapons and other efforts.

The following website reports on a new weapon China is testing (and plans on using).  Traveling at 10 times the speed of sound, it could arrive here in the U.S. within a very short period of time — without traveling into outer space, which shortens the trip.

China’s New Weapon and Their Intent

 

Our concerns over the economy may be short lived.  And replaced with WWIII..??

Smartphones and Your Attention Span

Leave a comment

In my earlier blog I mention the affects of radio waves (RF) to your head/mind.  Well, it appears there is yet more evidence that points to your phone causing a shortening of your ‘attention span’.!!  The following text is from an advisory I receive and is very interesting.

Smartphones and Your Attention Span

For us older folks, we probably spend more time on the computer than on a phone.  Phones are for talking right?  And you thought is was everyone else that’s the problem!!?

Sharia Law in Texas!

Leave a comment

I can understand almost anything happening in California — but here in Texas??

Well folks, we just kicked to the curb the one strong effort to stop Sharia law from being used in Texas.  If you are a person who insists on justice, then this should be a serious issue to you.  What it means is the ability of anyone to use an alternate legal system in lieu of our state or federal law — i.e., Sharia law.  This is in total conflict with our constitution.  You’d think this would be an obvious action — especially in Texas.  But, here we are.  What is even harder to believe is two women were the cause of this new law dieing.!!?  (No explanation was given as to why they backed down on this new bill.)  Why would two Republican sponsors of the original HB 562, Rep Harlessof Harris County (NW Houston) and Rep Riddle of Houston suddenly vote against a bill they had both signed up as being willing to sponsor?

The following video interview of Chris Byrd — an attorney in Boerne, Texas — explains the American Laws for American Courts (ALAC) recent failure to pass the bill necessary to stop this behavior in the current Texas congressional session.  Although you might think that this is of no direct impact on you, it certainly could be in the near future.

The Muslim strategic plan is to get ‘family court’ managed via Sharia law for Muslims.  Then in the future get criminal law in Texas replaced with Sharia criminal law.  If that doesn’t scare you, nothing will.  Honor killings could be a new way of life.?!

Please watch at least the first 8:45 of the video to understand what the action was and how it can affect you — especially if you’re a woman!!
