TELLING IT LIKE IT IS

There should not, under any circumstances, be a re-definition of marriage.  Traditional marriage has for centuries been tied to the belief that joins one man and one woman together to become as one, the basis of which is to procreate.  A natural union.  While in some instances procreation may not be possible that still does not negate the true meaning and intent.   Arguments of those homosexuals who use the inability to procreate is not justification to accept their particular life choice being called 'marriage'.   That does not make me a 'bigot', 'hateful' or 'homophobic' - choice adjectives used as bullying tactics to force acceptance.    

To date, there is no known,  scientific documentation that anyone is born a homosexual or, for that matter, that there is any recognized homosexual gene;  however, I believe that many things in a young person's life may contribute to the eventual move toward homosexuality, albeit misguided.   The American public is not being told the whole truth about this march to make homosexuality an 'acceptable, viable, alternative' lifestyle and  the real truth of 'unintended consequences' is not a pretty picture.

WHAT'S SO 'GAY' ABOUT 'GAY'?

In the 'old' days, 'gay' was used to denote a state of mind such as 'happy', 'joyful', etc.  but somehow, it has morphed into something entirely different.   Now, it's just another word for 'homosexual' - a person who is sexually attracted to people of their own sex.  Sure does take on a different meaning when you say it that way, don't you think?  In reality, 'gay' hides the true identity of the person so identified because how can they really be happy - let's say - when they are so upset with people who can't accept their 'gayness'?

A MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH


To say that I am a diehard advocate of life would probably be a gross understatement.  Actually, I can't recall any point in my life where I would have been an advocate for anything more important.
 
I recall in my early twenties having a friend who found herself in an unwanted pregnancy deciding to rid herself of the 'burden'.  She did not tell the father, who had been trying to get her to marry him, that she was pregnant.  At that time, abortions were not yet legal but somehow she was able to find someone in our city who performed abortions.  I really don't recall how far along she was in her pregnancy or whether she even told me but she asked me to do something that to this day I ask the Lord to forgive me for.  She asked that I drive her to where she needed to go and pick her up afterward.  My immediate response was no that I didn't want to be a part of what she was about to do but she pleaded and begged until I finally said I would drive her there but that she was to get someone else to pick her up.  Up to that point, we had been very close friends since junior high and gone through the usual teenage rigors of growing up.  This was something entirely new to me and I found myself recoiling at the thought of what she was about to do and that I was about to help her.  It would be safe to say that although we remained friends, our friendship was changed from that day forward.  
 
I have been married since the mid-fifties and have four wonderful, healthy children.  Never at any time did I ever fully comprehend the life that was forming in me much less have the opportunity to actually see that child grow.  I believe the best at the time was hearing a heartbeat and actually feeling the movements inside of me.  Today, scientific advancement has greatly improved the ability to not only feel but actually see that little child as he or she develops day by day, month by month and that brings me to the point of this 'story'.

TERRORIST TRAINING CAMPS IN AMERICA? YEAH!

I can almost guarantee that when former United  States Homeland Security Secretary, Janet Napolitano,  spoke of 'domestic terrorists' in her 2009 paper on domestic terrorists* these were not the ones she had in mind.  Hers were more on the order of Tea Party types, conservatives, returning military, and anyone who voiced an opinion about the size of government or disagreed with the politics and aims of the POTUS, Barack Hussein Obama.

To the best of my knowledge the map you are looking at is not recent - that is, not current as of 2014, which means that as of this date, in Virginia specifically, there are at least 5 such training camps.  This is not a myth.   This is all too true; the government knows about them and my question is, since our government knows, why are they allowed to exist? This is the ENEMY training to kill us on our own soil.

THE PRESIDENT'S 'MISSTEPS'

I wrote a letter to the editor not too long ago and the editor chose the above title to place on it.  Needless to say, none of the following  could be considered to be "missteps" by any stretch of the imagination but I'm always appreciative of having my letters printed:
 
"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, Insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."  Preamble to the Constitution.

“Justice”, “Tranquility”,  “defence”, “Welfare”, “secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity”.  This administration has given us ‘turmoil and chaos’, wide open borders, increased welfare/decreased workers and jobs, and our liberty is being threatened everyday by a government that can’t, won’t or doesn’t know how to act with our enemies much less recognize them as such.  Our ‘posterity’ will inherit a debt they may never recover from. We have a government run amuck in every alphabet department you can name – IRS, NSA, ERA, NLRB, DOJ, GSA, VA, HHS, DHS and the list goes on.
