Deen asks the fox to help guard the hen house?

 

This story can not possibly get more ridiculous after this latest revelation. According to Black Voices, Paula Deen has reached out for help from non other than Mr. Race Baiter himself, Jesse Jackson.  According to Jackson “Paula Deen can be redeemed”.  HUH? Why does she need redemption for using the term nigger an aeon ago?

I am officially DONE with this story.  If Paula Deen is this incredibly blind and stupid, then she deserves to be excoriated!

Let’s not forget that during the 2008 elections, Jackson had to do some apologizing (I’m sure it was heart felt) himself for this comment-- "Barack...he's talking down to black people...telling niggers how to behave."   And he apparently wanted to cut off Obama’s nuts.  I'm not sure if he changed his mind on that or if he actually realized that Obama didn’t have any.

Deen used the term many, many years ago; Jackson used it more recently and probably uses it regularly…he just doesn’t get caught, and when he does get caught, the liberal media makes no to-do about it.   And please let’s not get into that foolishness of him getting a pass on the use of nigger or nigga because he’s black….pffffttt!!

Deen asking Jackson for help is like a hen asking the fox to help protect the hen house!  Let’s remember some of Jackson’s racist remarks, shall we?

• Jackson referred to Jews in New York City as “Hymies
• He stated that Dan Gilbert (Cavaliers Owner) had the mentality of a slave owner who viewed LeBron James leaving that team as a  runaway slave (how much was LeBron getting paid again?)
• he said that white men fantasize about sex with black women when he interjected himself in the  Duke rape case. Let’s not forget the fiasco that case turned out to be.
• He criticized Obama for “acting white”.  Apparently, depending on your skin tone, you must act a certain way. Go figure!
• He told Soledad O’Brian she wasn’t black enough.  LOL!
• He warned  members of the Congressional Black Caucus that voting against Obama care makes them race traitors (“how can you call yourself a black man”)
• He accused Birthers of being racist for using “code” words like “birthplace”  LMAO!  He has fallen off the deep end.

I couldn’t care less about Paula Deen using the word nigger a gazillion years ago. We ALL have said or done something that we regret. I don’t even care if she said it yesterday.  Deen nor her words have power over me, so who cares. Neither do I care about the so called slave dinner that Deen purportedly planned.  I’m more appalled at the black folk who took that gig!  Anyone  asking me if I wanted a job where I dressed like a slave to serve white people would be Nat Turnered with the quickness.

Deen, from what I’ve read was a relentless supporter of Obama, so it’s really entertaining to me to watch the liberal media chew up and spit out one of their own. 

Sorry, Paula but you just don’t fit the “image” of a liberal elite.  You fit the image of the dumb southerner who talks funny…. according to liberal standards. But  since you seem to be seeking assistance from that racist, race baiting whore Jackson, maybe the problem isn’t the way you speak….maybe you’re just being flat out dumb!

Call me Paula… I can REALLY help!

Is Tyra Banks evil for firing employees?

 

It’s been recently reported that Tyra Banks wanted to shake up things on her long running show, America’s Next Top Model, due to sagging ratings. In an effort to shake things up, Banks fired multiple people from her staff, including three of the most prominent faces connected to the show: Jay Manuel, “Miss” J. Alexander and Nigel Barker.  Hollywood.com is reporting that the contracts for these three has not been renewed.

After having a successful show for nineteen years, is Ms. Banks being greedy by trying to revamp her show in order to make more money?  Is she greedy and evil like the corporations that liberals complain about all the time? After all, those three cast members have been there with her since the beginning. Some could argue that they helped make the show as successful as it was…so why toss them to the side when the going gets tough?  Why not continue to invest in them and “hope” the show gets better? Or is terminating people and attempting to remodel your brand  only evil when corporations do it?

Oh…since Tyra is a “member” of the one percent, will she soon be occupied by the 99 percent? Ooops… I forgot, Tyra Banks is a liberal, so that good ole double standard applies!

Zimmerman isn’t the racist in Trayvon’s case.

 

We’ve all heard about the murder of seventeen year old Trayvon Martin by now.  He is the young man that was shot dead by a neighborhood watch guard.

The details of what happened are still too sketchy.  Just about the only thing that ISN’T sketchy is the racial overtones devouring this case.  You see, the surname of the shooter is Zimmerman and the victim is Black.  One thing the mainstream,  liberal media loves to do is to sensationalize White on minority crimes. 

What we are now finding out about Zimmerman is that he is Hispanic; not White, and is from a multi-racial family.  We are also finding out that the initial reports of him using racial slurs were incorrect. Although the racial overtones are glaring, and he has been labeled a racist, there is no evidence thus far to support the claim of racism.

Don’t get me wrong here; I’m not defending Zimmerman. Based on reports, he continued to follow Trayvon when he had been explicitly told not to. I feel but for that decision, Trayvon would not be dead today.  And also based on reports, I’m of the opinion that the local police investigated the case poorly. Subsequent to the local police ruling the case self-defense, it appears that  important details emerged that contradicts their determination.

I am prepared to allow the special prosecutor and FBI to cross all T’s and dot all I’s in this case. I want to see justice done just as much as anyone else. But because I’m a Conservative and refuse to be propelled by emotions like the vast majority of Blacks, I’ve been accused of being non-caring, not doing enough and standing with Whites (even though Zimmerman is Hispanic) and selling out the Black Community.

It is incredibly unfortunate when ANYONE is murdered. I’m saddened by the death of this young man, and I can not even begin to imagine what his parents must be feeling or their suffering.  In 2010, 2,720 parents felt that unimaginable grief. That’s how many Blacks were murdered.

I still do not understand where the national media attention was for the murders of all those men, women and children;  or Jessie Jackson, Al Sharpton and the mob of angry, protesting Blacks! They mattered as much as Trayvon, right? 

Other than abortion (roughly 15 million Black babies murdered, yes murdered, since Roe v. Wade), loss of life doesn’t get more innocent than that of a child’s caught by the stray bullet of a gang banger or drug dealer as they play in their yards or sit in their home watching TV.

Of those 2,720 Blacks  murdered in 2010, 2,459 of them were murdered by Blacks.  The Black on Black  scenario is not exciting enough for the liberal media; nor is there a racial angle for the likes of Sharpton to exploit. In addition, the murderers of many of the victims go unpunished.  Unlike the angry mobs that mobilize when a non-Black person kills a Black person, those who know anything about inner city murders are suddenly rendered mute. Hey, who likes a SNITCH? Only snitch if the killer is NOT Black!  

Zimmerman may be a racist. It’s just that I have not seen evidence of it thus far. But, the media and the many Black folk ready to hang him without a trial sure seem to be preening some racial feathers.

Have you heard about the thirteen year old Kansas City White teen that was doused with gasoline and set on fire by several Black teens, as they yelled racial epithets?  Probably not many of you have.  It’s not sensational enough for liberal media.

Liberalism must continue racial divide to survive.  Trayvon is sadly being used as a mere tool by the liberal game players, and just as sad and equally disgusting,  his parent’s, and that giant, angry mob of Black folk are definitely being played.

Why Black History Month is an Insult.

 

“African American” History month is an extension of Negro History Week, which was founded by Carter G. Woodson. The first celebration of Negro History Week was in February of 1926. The month of February was chosen so that the celebration would coincide with the birthdates of Abraham Lincoln and Fredrick Douglas.

Carter G. Woodson was born in Virginia, in 1875, to former slaves. He grew up to become a Harvard trained historian who believed that he could only escape poverty through education. He also believed that un-denied truth would prevail over prejudice, so he set out to establish a way to disseminate the historical contributions of “African Americans”. Through his determination, along with the determination of Minister Jesse E. Moorland, the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History (ASNLH) was established. It was this association that sponsored the first Negro History Week in 1926. Today, this association is known as the Association for the study of “African-American” Life and History.

In 1976, the celebration of Negro History week, expanded into “African American” History Month, coinciding with the nation’s bicentennial. Starting with Gerald Ford, every American President since 1976 has officially designated the month of February as “African American” History Month. The United Kingdom and Canada have also designated a month to celebrate this history.

I applaud Carter G. Woodson’s efforts to make sure that the more than substantial contributions made by Black Americans would not be lost. However, by this time, the contributions made by Blacks, from Crispus Attucks to Dr. Ben Carson, should be taught in mainstream education, and be a part of the normal American history curriculum. If this history is not being taught as part of the main curriculum... why not?  If it is being done (I don’t believe that it is), why do we need a month dedicated to Blacks?

To separate Blacks from AMERICAN history is a major insult in my eyes. Those Blacks WERE Americans who deserve the same recognition of any other American making history. For many Blacks, they were not even considered human, so separating them at this point in history books is not only an insult, it’s unforgivable. It’s a form of segregation. Out ancestors, of All hues, worked to mold this country into the greatest nation on the planet, so, why are we still carving out a month of each year for some? It’s an insult as it suggests that Blacks in history are only a footnote.

I’m not looking for special consideration of Blacks…. that’s what Black History month is.  I’m suggesting that someone like Captain Robert Smalls should be discussed when discussing the Civil War… he certainly earned his spot in the history books. Come on! It’s 2012! Blacks who are happy with anything less than equality in the history books have fallen to the soft bigotry of lowered expectations.

Perhaps the first step towards integrating all Americans in history books is for Blacks and other minorities to stop hyphenating. Stop referring to yourself as ________-Americans. We’re all Americans.  Our ancestors sacrificed a lot for us to be here, so embrace it.

Mr. Woodson was correct when he said “un-denied truth would prevail over prejudice”. It is the opinion of some that truth has been denied; seemingly on purpose. It seems impossible that this copious and rich history has been evaded by accident. Perhaps some are afraid that true history shows Blacks as strong, Christian, fighters, achievers, business owners, military personnel, authors, doctors, lawyers, slave owners, slave traders, and politicians (amongst other things). I guess it would be hard to promote a mentality of victimhood once you know the stock from which you came… and truth!

I believe that if our children were taught that Whites were the first slaves in this country; that the first slave ship was rejected; that slavery was initially determined by religious and class status, not skin color; that Antonio the Negro was the first documented, outright slave owner; that Blacks were more than slaves; that the Republican party was formed to end slavery and that the Democrat party started the KKK to harass Republicans… we would begin to heal as a nation in ways you could not imagine. That prejudice that exudes from many Americans, of every shade these days, would be a rare occurrence. Truth must have it‘s day if we hope to unite as a nation. 

Our history is well rounded. There is a lot of beauty mixed in with the ugly, but to this day, too much focus is given to the ugly parts of our history. Until unadulterated, true history is taught, we will retain the negative impact of racial divide and prejudice in our society, because even if you can teach history in a day, a week, a month or for years… when it’s revised, hidden or stolen… what good is it?

I challenge Black parents to ask your  children who Crispus Attucks, Captain Robert Smalls, Phyllis Wheatley, Elizabeth Keckly, Rev. Jonas Clark, James Armistead Lafayette, Benjamin Banneker,  John Rock or Antonio the Negro was. If they don’t know, not only has the school system and society failed, so have you because the responsibility of educating starts and ends in the home.

What We Have Become

 

We have gone from fighting for our freedom to giving it up to be controlled by the government; specifically, the political party that enslaved and murdered our ancestors.

We have gone from working hard to achieve success regardless of our circumstance,  to using our circumstance as an excuse to not work hard.

We have gone from striving for self sufficiency to being content with and dependent on governmental insufficiency.

We have gone from fighting to keep our families together to willfully creating life for a financial pittance handed to us by the government.

We have gone from fighting and literally dying to be educated, to allowing our children to drop out of school and enter prison at astronomical rates.

We have gone from believing in God or being true to our faith, to believing in and putting our faith in a political party, specifically the one that has and still is committing atrocities against our race.

We have gone from fighting for equal rights to accepting special rights, as if we are incapable of competing based on our own intellectual abilities.

We have become confortable in using slavery as an excuse to do nothing.

We have become comfortable wallowing in a perpetual state of victimhood.

We have become comfortable with excusing away our bad and barbaric behavior, often finding a way to invoke racism, instead of holding people accountable for their actions.

We have embraced a secular culture that is antithetical to our Christian beliefs and as a result, we have lost the ability to be ashamed of our actions. 

What we need to do now is focus on our youth. We need to reintroduce shame, especially in an era of all of these “this and that housewife” shows;  few male role models in the home, and secular churches. 

If we don’t focus on our youth enough  to at least plant the seeds of what decency and morality really is; or to show them how to think critically, I’ll  hate to see what we will become as a nation in the next 20 – 30 years.

This Chic-fil-A story is not about racism; it’s about politics!

 

Was the Chic-fil-A cashier stupid for referring to Asian customers as Ching and Chong on their receipts?  Does doing such a thing make that cashier incredibly stupid? Hell yes! Does that make the person a racist? Not necessarily.

How many times have you said something “off color” or inappropriate? If you’re being honest, your answer is many times! I know I have been inappropriate many times, and I’m an equal opportunity offender. My comments made in jest, to a selected group of people that I trust; do not make me racist.  I don’t go around making racially inflammatory comments all willy-nilly, and I certainly wouldn’t do such a thing at work under any circumstance, but around friends and family… yeah, I’ve said some things that would end my campaign if I were running for a public office!

Booooo to that cashier!  What were you thinking, dude? You don’t write that kind of thing on a customer’s receipt! You save those kind of jokes for close friends and family!  How were you raised?

Actually, I think this story is racist! According to “The Source”? Is that the victim… “The Source”… sounds too much like soy Sauce to me!  Did this incident even happen? I’m not convinced!

 
Anywho, given the severe issues we face today, like our economy being in the toilet and Iran being on the verge of getting nuclear weapons, I’m shocked that this story captured the attention of mainstream media. GASP! Could we be seeing this report because the Chic-fil-A Corporation-Person is pro Christianity and pro traditional marriage? Is Chic-fil-A being targeted politically?  I betcha they are!  Attention ill-informed… this is a dot… connect it!

I know one thing…and that is people need to lighten up! I love me a Chic-fil-A chicken sandwich with waffle fries, so BACK OFF liberal media! Don’t make me CLUCK you up!

Is Michelle the Victim of a Racist Stereotype?

 

Gayle King recently interviewed Michelle Obama and the conversation turned towards comments purportedly made in the book “The Obamas”, written by a former White House insider. Apparently, Michelle Obama is being painted as unhappy, frustrated, feeling burdened and angry.

Michelle Obama basically denied that there have been abnormal upheavals between her and White House staff members.  During the interview Michelle stated that from the time Barack Obama announced his candidacy, “that’s the image they have tried to paint me as… this angry black woman”. 

We don’t know what takes place behind those White House doors, but just as with other administrations, juicy tidbits, accusations and facts are bound to come out. We can only take that information and apply our common sense to determine what makes sense to us.

Something that helps us discern what is truth or fiction with these tell-tell books are the actual words of the subjects. In Michelle’s case, she has said some things that could lead some to believe that she probably is angry and frustrated. Remember that Carla Bruini, France’s first lady, disclosed in her book what Michelle Obama said about being America’s first lady “it’s hell. I can’t stand it”.  Are both of these authors lying?  They could probably sell just as many books with a feel-good take on Michelle/The Obamas.

What about Michelle’s public statements?  Remember when she said  “For the first time in my adult life, I’m proud of my country”?  And… “America is a downright mean country”?   Don’t forget the comment “All of this just for a flag?” at a 9/11 ceremony. 

It’s very plausible that Michelle Obama harbors anti-American sentiments after sitting in  Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s church, with her husband, listening to his incendiary comments for so many years. When you sit and listen to hate for so long, it seems reasonable that some of the venom will get into your system and stay there.

My best guess is that Michelle probably can be very difficult to deal with. Her facial gestures and body language is not warm and inviting.  Mix the non verbal communications with the verbal communications and  you get an image of a volatile Michelle.

Playing the race card is certainly not going to help  her. The comments in the book “The Obamas” came from someone on her side of the aisle; so, who is the “they” that she believes is trying to paint her as an angry black woman?  Interjecting the racial element only makes here look “angry”.   Think about it… what does she have to be pissed off about… the multi million dollar vacations?  Why would such a persona be attributed to her out of the blue? I know people lie, but there are many pieces to this puzzle that in my eyes, do not match Michelle’s explanation.

Actually, I can see how all of the parties, vacations and managing personal groomers and other staff  at taxpayer’s expense can be frustrating and burdensome! The stress and exhaustion from the jet-setting and shopping for cheap nine hundred dollar knock off purses would make anyone unhappy!  Leave her alone racist people!  She is a strong Black woman, who has a right and perhaps in her mind, a reason to be angry!

Liberal-Isms

I want to do whatever I want, when I want and I don’t want to be judged for, or made to feel bad about my actions.

I want to be told I’ve done a good job even though I have not.

I want a ribbon even if I lose the race so I won’t fee bad.

I want others to pay for my mistakes.

I don’t want to be held accountable for my actions because it would make me feel bad.


I’m a victim of my own mistakes and feel others should be responsible for fixing my mistakes.

I’m a victim of past transgressions and deserve special rights.

I’m different and I deserve special rights.

I feel all of us are victims of something, and therefore, the legal system punishes too harshly.

I feel that Blacks are victims of slavery…. still.

I don’t believe Blacks can be racist.

I feel some people just need more help than others and that help should be provided by the government.

I’m comfortable with the majority loosing rights, if it benefits me.

I’m for making the majority of people feel uncomfortable if it makes a few more comfortable.

I feel it’s unfair that those who work harder than me have more than me.

I shouldn’t have to earn what I deserve.

I’m entitled to great things, at any cost, unless I have to pay that cost.

I feel a human baby growing inside its mother is not a life, but an acorn is.

I feel most people are incapable of making intelligent decisions, so I must think for them.

I believe in God  but, the ideology of my political party is more important than God’s word.

This Conservative does not FEEL or BELIEVE that Liberals hear themselves when they speak.

Stop Tail-Tucking and Ditching Candidates!

 

Now that Rick Santorum is rising in the polls, and since he just rose from  political murk to land a very taut second place finish in the Iowa Caucasus,  the slander and smear machines are already cranking up to start tearing him down. Seems the moment a candidate becomes a blip on the political radar, they become targets.  I knew it wouldn’t take long before the mud started to fly, but now I’m  wondering just how fast it will take Republicans to tuck their tails and run from the controversy and accusations that are inevitable.

It doesn’t seem to matter if accusations are factual or fabricated. Many Republicans will quickly, and undoubtedly scurry off the scene when the going gets tough.  Ask Herman Cain about that.

Liberals know good and well that all they have to do is call the GOP candidate a racist, a homophobe or in Cain’s case, a sex crazed womanizer, and not only will the candidate usually cave, but so will their supporters… with supporters usually being the first to throw in the towel!  It seems we have not learned to hang in there when the going gets tough. I hate to say it, but we can learn a lot from Liberals when it comes to selecting a candidate, and sticking with them through thick or thin. If Obama had raped a toddler in a public square, liberal pundits would have spun the event successfully before Obama zipped his pants up. The voters, media,  and all other Obama supporters would stick by him, and defend him to the bitter end.

I am in NO WAY suggesting that we should support ANY candidate under ANY circumstance. We must always be moral and prudent when choosing candidates for any office, but we should always have PROOF before we start dropping our candidates faster than a pimp drops a useless hoe. Dirty tactics will be employed by the masters of the game… expect it and be ready and most importantly, wait for the facts and demand proof of wrongdoing!

To give you an example of what the dirty Left is capable of, check out what was said about Santorum and how he handled the death of his baby boy, Gabriel. Gabriel was born in 1996, but died shortly after birth.  The Santorums took their deceased baby home with them to make him  a  reality for their other children and to give him a funeral.  Well, Lefty talk show host Alan Colmes stated that Santorum’s popularity would end once people realized some of the crazy things he has said and done. Colmes went on to discuss the 1996 death of  little Gabriel this way…..

“once they get a load of some of the crazy things he’s said and done, like taking his two-hour-old baby who died right after childbirth home and played with it for a couple hours so his other children would know that the child was real…”

Vile words, said in a vile context and with a vile intent, don’t you think?  But I suppose honoring  Gabriel and treating him like a part of the family (which he was) would be crazy to someone who supports killing babies by ripping them out of  the mother’s womb. There’s certainly much, much more to come from the morally destitute Lefties. Don’t believe me? Check out this video of Santorum making a “racist” comment:

Not everything is racism…. please apply critical thinking!

 I realize that the GOP candidates not only run against their liberal opponents, but they are also fighting a liberal media, and the smear-mongers. Let’s not make them fight for our support as well.   When things start heating up, and we know they will because “dung is slung” from both sides of the aisle these days, (ask Newt Gingrich about that),  hang in there until there is  irrefutable proof of wrongdoing, or until it’s clear that the candidate is simply being targeted for a political smack down. 

In other words folks, don’t tuck your tails between your legs and run like wimpy little puppies anymore.  We’re in a fight here!  We know the swamp gates will be opened, so brace yourselves for the onslaught, but remain strong.

To get the inescapable smear campaign started, I will use a joke that I stole from my friend Mark Forsland:  “Breaking news...... Rick Santorum had an affair with Herman Cain when he was a delivery boy for Godfather's Pizza.”  And…. we’re….OFF!!!!!

The Disadvantaged Wear $180.00 Shoes?

 

Last week, we witnessed people vandalizing property, fighting each other, stabbing each other, stampeding over each other, being tear gassed, and being arrested….at malls from coast to coast. Police even had to rescue two toddlers from a car after they were abandoned by their $200.00 shoe hunting mother! All of this chaos for a pair of shoes! Not just any old shoes… THE NEW AIR JORDANS!! I’m clutching my chest and gasping wildly (mocking the excited consumers of course).

What about the behavior these people displayed? Wow! They looked like wild animals trying to avoid recapture. Trampling what appeared to be children did not cause anyone to pause to help their fellow man. Getting a pair of those shoes was paramount and preserving life apparently was not on any person’s list of priorities.

Did you happen to checkout the makeup of the crowds that was shown on the news? A whole lot of Black folk were out there. We are in a recession, and nationally, unemployment amongst Blacks is greater that 16%. So, what’s really going on? How are these poor, disadvantaged Black folk able to afford $200.00 for a pair of freakin sneakers?  I will get back to this question, so allow me to digress for a moment.

Since this "incident” made national news, of course, the scavenger community leaders (misleaders) smelled the fresh blood of opportunity. Publicity! Black and Hispanic community leaders (misleaders) held a news conference where they basically blamed Michael Jordan and Nike for the ruckus. These “leaders” stated that “those who can least afford the shoes are the ones buying them”….huh??!! If you can’t afford them, don’t buy them. They went on to say “Michael Jordan and Nike should stand up and be a part of the solution”, and “there are public safety issues with children wearing these shoes”. These community folks felt that Nike should lower the prices of the shoes, meet customer demand and that wearing the shoes only causes more crime.

So, make more shoes and sell them cheaper….LOL. I wonder how many businesses have either of those fools ran. They fail to realize that the consumers of these shoes buy them because of the prestige that they (the consumers) have placed on them.

Hey leaders…. mind your own damn business! How about that? As usual, you have no real solutions. You just saw an opportunity to get your mugs on TV. Stop treating Black people as if they are special needs. What you should be focusing on is what’s causing certain mentalities in Black communities. Focus on that and you will see that Nike and Jordan are far from the problem.

And just where are these children getting the money to buy these shoes anyway? I assume it’s from their parents (parent for 70% of them). Who is giving permission to these children to stand in line all night to be first in line to buy the darn shoes? I’m guessing the parents (or parent). Why would parents (or parent) allow their children to wear something that could cause them their lives in certain neighborhoods?

I’m guessing that most of the youth buying these shoes don’t work, don’t know the value of a dollar, do not live in a two parent home and have not had certain values instilled into their psyches. This feral behavior is just a symptom of the breakdown of the family. That’s the core issue… breakdown of the nuclear family. Unless Michael Jordan or Nike are the fathers to all of these kids, the bullseye target can be removed from their backs. As for the adults who bought the shoes…. it’s their damn money!

Back to how can poor and disadvantaged people afford to pay so much for a pair of shoes! Are we seeing a hint that Blacks aren’t as bad off as those on the Left would have you believe? Probably. Liberals love to have victims, even when there are none. I’m sure that there are lots of Black folk that really can’t afford the shoes, but did you see those crowds??!! 

Not many people I know who are working everyday have $200.00 to go plop down on a pair of shoes!

I only hope that no tax dollars were abused during the purchasing of Air Jordans! Hey… who am I kidding! Of course welfare money bought some of those Jordans… duh!

Tebow: “Get Bowed” With Him America!

 

The constant criticism of football player Tim Tebow engaging in a short prayer before games is really beginning to brew a hellish anger in me. I was going to ask the rhetorical question, “what’s the big deal about a man praying”, but on second thought, the question is not so rhetorical after all. The big deal goes beyond Tebow and it is just another example of the Secularists trying to erode Christianity wherever it is displayed. In other words, those that follow the religion of Secular Humanism are unwavering in their efforts to shatter the very foundation on which this nation was founded: Christianity. Connect the dots, and the picture will be clear!

The Secularists yelp and bark about Tebow incessantly, saying that he should keep his faith to himself. Really? Ok… what about the rappers who thank God for winning awards? Should they keep that to themselves? The answer to secularists is no. Would you like to know why? It’s because most of them don’t really mean it. They know it’s not sincere coming from that crowd, so there is no harm done. This crowd will not go out and exalt God in there everyday lives. They are simply grandstanding to give the  impression of a person of faith. Look at many of their lives…. does it reflect a faith driven person?

To the keen eye, it is obvious that some of these entertainer’s words and actions do not match. Many of them have arrest records longer than their arms and legs combined. They have multiple kids out of wedlock and take pride in portraying a lifestyle that revolves around money and whores, and whores and money.  They live secular lifestyles so, this crowd actually works towards destroying Christianity, and that keeps them  safe from criticism.

How about Muslims who wear the hijab, or fall down like drunks praying to Allah every four hours (or however often they pray)?  If they are wearing the hijab in public or are being allowed to pray in the work place, or any other public place, are they keeping their religion to themselves? What about the atheists who want every vestige of Christianity removed from wherever they can have it removed? Are they keeping their beliefs to themselves? No… they are not, but different rules apply to the liberal faction.

Have you noticed that you never see  Secularists attack Hindu, Buddhism, Scientology or any other “religion”? Only Christianity! I guess that’s the price to pay for being the real deal.

When Muslims are made to remove hijabs and burkas in public because wearing them will betray their religious preference, then come and talk to me about Tebow praying before a game. And when atheists are not allowed to publicly profess that there is no God, we can have this chat again!

Secularists should really adapt rules to the game that apply to everyone “fairly” (a favorite word for the liberal minded folk). As it stands, Liberals use a set of rules that oscillate. This way they can constantly change their stance to defend a liberal offending party or situation, or degrade if conservative. In other words, Liberals (same as Secularists for the intellectually challenged- all part of the Democrat Party) are some of the biggest hypocrites on the planet. Some even pretend to believe in God, but their lifestyles and actions paint a very different picture- like many of those rappers and other performers who thank God for winning an award, but then go out and get wasted drunk; rape or shoot someone, or break the law in one way or another.

To my knowledge, Tebow is true to his faith. And that just chaps some liberal hides! You see, he CAN bring others to Christianity! This is why he is so targeted! He is counterproductive to the secular movement.

Instead of beating this man down for being a Christian in a Christian nation, there should be knees bowed right along with his. I’m not saying to bow and pray for a football game… just bow and pray!

I’m not a sports fan at all, but I might have to find out which team Tebow plays for so I can watch, bow and pray with him. I encourage every Christian to do the same. Support your brother in Christ…defend your faith… “get bowed”.

What Christmas is Not

Many probably wont see this post until after Christmas, but that’s fine. Hopefully it will give you something to think about moving forward.  What does Christmas mean to you these days?  I’m not looking for your programmed answer, I’m looking for the answer that comes from your spirit… your true answer. I’m not looking for the obvious answer. Put some thought into answering the question. What do you do the other 364 days to bring your answer to life?  Are you teaching the true meaning of Christmas to your children and grandchildren? If not, you are not living the true meaning of Christmas .

I can tell you what Christmas IS NOT.  It isn’t a happy holiday or a season to be greeted. It isn’t a chance to get gifts or to go shopping to catch sales. And while festive decorations are nice to look at and makes the heart happy (at least it does that for me) decorated trees and fancy lights do not define Christmas.

Christmas IS NOT an excuse to gorge ourselves with stuffing, ham, cakes, pies, candies, cookies, eggnog and all of those other goodies that are oh so very good…  yum!  It’s NOT an excuse for parties or get-togethers to partake in adult beverages or to show off the brand new outfit bought just for the occasion.


What about Santa Claus? Nope, Christmas IS NOT about Santa Clause, Rudolph or the other reindeer. And it’s not about elves making toys, or talking snowmen. These things are nice fantasies for children if you so choose to teach it to them, but these things should only be taught if teaching the true meaning of Christmas supersedes.

I wonder how many families have watched stories about the birth of Christ. I wonder if Christ was discussed everyday, as we frenzied our way to December 25th. I wonder how many minutes families spent praying together during this “season”.  Was there more talk of gift giving, Santa and baking in your home than about Christ?  If so, then that’s the legacy you are building for your children. 

I’m not trying to be holier than thou. I have spent time reflecting on my own actions and what I can do differently to carry the spirit of Christmas in my heart everyday of my life. After all, we are celebrating the birth of Christ today; the son that God sacrificed for our salvation because we are so weakened by our wicked hearts.

Christmas is  faith. It is a lifestyle. It spawns a desire to live a life that is worthy of the gift of salvation.  It is your generous spirit. Christmas is to be celebrated every day of your life because it represents truth, love, hope, sacrifice and the gift of eternal life. Christmas is the day we set aside to celebrate the birth of our savior, Jesus Christ, so why not celebrate his existence everyday… in small ways?  Anywho, that’s my goal. I can always do better…. always! 

Happy Birthday, Jesus….. and  Merry Christmas to everyone, all year long!

The Power of Women

        I’m not quite sure what some of us women have devolved into, but I do know that it‘s anything but good. It seems that meeting someone, courting them (remember that word…courting) and getting to know them well enough to determine compatibility is a thing of the past. I find that reality to be incredibly sad. Today, it’s all about hook-ups, gettin’ wit’ someone or smashin’. I’m baffled at the ease that most women will give up their bodies to men that are so unworthy of them or that they barely know. Women have either forgotten the scope of their power or they have never realized it.
        The power of women is unimaginable. We have the ability to create the atmosphere in our homes and to create the environment of our neighborhoods, and ultimately, to an extent, we create the atmosphere in our communities and our nation. Our role in this world is incredible, but sadly, we have allowed too many influences such as feminism and liberalism to lead us away from God’s design for relationships and marriage. These influences have left us severely misguided.
        Those most affected by this misguidance are Black women. In 1960, only 28 percent of black females between the ages of 15 and 44 were never married. Today, that number is approaching 70%. In 1940, the illegitimacy rate among blacks was 19 percent; in 1960 it was 22 percent, and today, it's 75% and even higher in some communities. Liberal politicians started to push welfare and entitlement programs on Blacks as early as the 1930’s under President Roosevelt.  Sadly, Rosevelt reverted to the principles of the Progressive Party, which was his party before he belonged to the Republican Party.

         By the late 70’s, the government had all but replaced Black men as the bread winner in many  homes. The government became "daddy" to many Black children while Black women were constantly being counseled against marriage.  If they married, they would lose their welfare benefits. While my focus is on Blacks, the numbers for illegitimacy are pretty scary across cultural lines. Ladies, ALL of us need get it together!
        I believe it’s high time that we recover both our power and dignity… and with the quickness! The good news is that we can recover. It will take tenacity and hard work, and in my opinion, it will take a generation to see substantial and sustainable results, but as my father used to say, “if it ain’t worth workin’ for, it ain’t worth nothin’.”
        If you’re wondering if I blame women for the out of control illegitimacy rate …the answer is yes... at least for the most part. Men have to ask us for sex, but we don’t have to say yes or accept uncommitted relationships. Moreover, why would you want to have sex with someone who has absolutely no interest in marrying you? Furthermore, there is an AWESOME amount of power to be gained from accepting and owning your part of any problem.
        Women, we are the gatekeepers of morality. We lost our power because we gave up our post. Now, it’s up to us to redirect our relationships back to God’s design and live biblically principled lives. This is how we regain our power! The man will follow what the woman dictates, or he'll end up awfully lonely.  It’s up to us to have enough self respect and a sense of knowing how we want our families to be structured to lead the way on this issue. Real men will applaud us for our efforts and more beautifully, real men will marry us because of our efforts! It’s time to kill the supply of easy sex and re-establish a sense of virtue. Only then will we attract men who will love, cherish, and respect us. We are worthy of a men who will honor us through marriage, but only when he is financially able to support a family.
        Ladies, please realize that you are worthy of a happy, functional relationship that culminates in marriage. A woman who knows her worth knows all she needs to know.  Nothing is more powerful than knowing you are worthy of a beautiful life!
