To Save America

In an exit poll of a Massachusetts precinct, a voter was asked which candidate got his vote. His answer was Scott Brown. When asked why he voted for Brown, his reply was, "To save America." What a profound statement! He expressed the fears of millions of anguished Americans who have watched with dismay as the Obama machine set out to dismantle the America our Founding Fathers envisioned. Those who voted for him because he promised "change you can believe in" either didn't hear or understand the rest of his promise to "fundamentally change America."

This past year we have witnessed a steam roller approach to achieving all his goals to make a free America into a socialistic oligarchy. Ignoring the checks and balances inherent in our three branches of government, his cadre of czars and special appointees are now telling auto manufacturers, banks, insurance companies, mortgage lenders, health care providers, small businesses, and even private citizens what they can and cannot do with their businesses, their property, and even their own bodies. Nowhere in our Constitution or existing legislation is there authorization for this kind of takeover. His promise of transparency was abandoned with alacrity. Obama, Pelosi, and Reid have lied through their teeth and are getting away with it.

The miracle in Massachusetts, must be replicated at every opportunity. Only if the people open their eyes and use their rights while they still exist can this train-wreck of our government be stopped.

In the meantime, keep praying, keep working, keep doing all you can "to save America."

Brit Hume's Advice to Tiger

Brit Hume left himself open to intense criticism when he suggested on Fox News Sunday that if Tiger Woods wanted a total recovery from the scandal and forgiveness for his actions, he should turn to the Christian faith. Buddhists were naturally upset along with all the politically correct crowd. Yet when he appeared on the O'Reilly show, Brit did not take the opportunity to recant or change the intent of his advice. The following response was really quite moving (and rather brave): “What I’m saying is, if Tiger Woods were to make a true conversion, we would know it. It would show through in his being and he would know it above all and he would feel the extraordinary blessing that that would be. And it would shine because he is so prominent. It would be a shining light. And I think it would be a magnificent thing to witness.”

I'm not sure how much longer anyone in the broadcast media will be able to give such heartfelt advice or to be so sincerely honest in his assessment of what Christianity offers to a believer. If (or should I say when) the "Fairness Doctrine" is reinstated, there would be dire consequences for reaching out to offer this much needed advice.

When Jesus Christ shed his blood on the cross at Calvary, he paid the only price that could possibly make any of us sinners clean. Non-believers just can't understand the concept. It's impossible until you experience it. Thank you Brit Hume. You are obviously "not ashamed of the gospel of Christ."
