I've changed my mind

In an earlier post I said that I didn't believe that Obama IS evil, merely that many of his policy prescriptions spring from evil philosophies. I now believe that Obama is evil. I think he is intentionally trying to destroy everything this country has ever stood for and remake it in his image.

I cannot, for the life of me, find one thing the man has done politically that isn't pure evil.

A modest proposal

Now this is something I could get behind...

On the lighter side...

One of the other things about which I'm pretty passionate is wood working. I just completed a chess table and set I'm pretty proud of...

Gadfly?

John has a new post about politics which I responded to. Maybe I should just stop. I don't want to be a gadfly. He's never responded in any way to my last reply to him, so I'm guessing he's not interested in having a conversation about politics (with me at any rate...)

It just kills me that such an intelligent and decent person is so misguided about such important matters.

The Constitution Party Blues

I find it very difficult to point to any substantive disagreement I have with the Constitution Party platform. However, I think that no third party will play a role more significant than that of a spoiler in American politics for the foreseeable future.

I think it's better to work to educate those around us and within both major political parties so that they understand the importance of adherence to Constitutional principles.

It's tragic that the Dems have become the anti-Constitution party and the Repubs are the semi-anti-Constitution party. We need to work to change that somehow because I just don't think the Constitution party is ever going to have much of an effect...

Constitution Party of the United States

Is this the answer?
Constitution Party of the United States

Dr. Skousen took that approach I think because he despaired at being able to wake even members of the Church who SHOULD already know better to the danger of our present national course. Church members have no excuse for supporting socialism and irresponsible debt accumulation in any form. We, alone of all people on the earth, have been taught that the Constitution is of divine origin, and yet most are completely ignorant of the blatant warfare that has been waged on the Constitution by our own politicians. We now have the anti-Constitution party (the Democrats) and the semi-anti-Constitution party (the Republicans). There is not ONE Democrat at the national level that isn't overtly hostile to true Constitutional principles, and most of the R's are too.

I can't accept that it's time to just sit and pray for the end or "cleansing". Previous generations abandoned the Constitution, and that means that the road back will be difficult and painful, but it doesn't mean it's impossible. I have to believe that while there are increasing numbers of Americans willing to sell themselves and their children into slavery, there are also growing numbers who are coming to understand the evil being done and are not willing to "go quietly..."
