9-11-2009 Commentary

2009-09-13T17:53:00.002-04:00

These words, airing on 9/11/2009, followed a memorial montage of the events of 9/11/2001. I wish the montage had been left attached, but these words ought to stir anyone who cares about this country.

The awakening of the American Spirit.

2009-07-31T00:23:00.002-04:00

People need to hear this again today. What Carter did in 3 1/2 years, Obama has been able to double, even treble, in 6 months.

Happy Birthday America!

Orlando Tea Party Declaration - Part 1

2009-04-16T01:09:00.002-04:00

Too cool. I had a similar idea, that a Declaration needed to be adopted, and they did a GREAT job of writing and delivering it. The panning video was so-so, but its worth it to listen.

Reagan's Speech for Goldwater

2009-04-08T18:39:00.001-04:00

This is the speech that breathed new life into the conservative movement. Regardless of who likes him or doesn't, this man is an absolute HERO.

One Thing more...

2009-04-08T14:08:00.001-04:00

I'm not giving up, but I may be one of the people he talks about who can't find work. This is a good discussion, however, of the folly of not doing anything about Government stupidity.

There is a Reason Why You Are Here

Great message from someone who has overcome difficulties to gain a measure of success.

Aired February 2nd 2009 - Devaluing the Dollar

2009-04-03T16:14:00.003-04:00

This chart should take your breath away, and the spending since this aired has doubled and redoubled again. I'd like to see what the chart looks like again today.

ACORN Investigated - NYTimes Exposed!

2009-04-03T15:08:00.002-04:00

This is truly scary. Dick Morris reveals the underhandedness of the New York Times. The video is a little messed up. Fast forward to 1:40 from the beginning to actually see the beginning.

Daniel Hannon MEP is a hero!

Wake up America! Do not be caught off guard! Please watch the previous video first (below).

It's time to face these fears head-on and prepare our minds for what is coming. Watch this FIRST, then the next post (above).

The Declaration in Modernity

2009-03-30T17:33:00.004-04:00

"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the Powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, having its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. Such has been the patient suffrance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. ... We, therefore... appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name, and by authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right out to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance... ...and that as Free and Independent States, they have full power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the Protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor."

Alan Keyes: Stop Obama or U.S. Will Cease To Exist!

2009-03-28T16:00:00.002-04:00

I could not agree more with Mr. Keyes in this interview. His forthright and honest approach to extremely important topics is refreshing, and I wish he would have been elected President back when he ran for the office.

San Antonio Tea Party Invitation

2009-03-27T18:03:00.002-04:00

This is one fantastic invitation. I have been waiting since the day of 9-11-2001 for someone to realize that the song "Don't Tread On Me" by Metallica is patriotically inspiring and should be used for a purpose just like this. Enjoy!

We The People Stimulus Package

2009-03-18T23:17:00.003-04:00

This is OUTSTANDING. Not everything he says is precisely right, but the overall message that we need to let the Washington elites know that they work for us, and we will fire them, one way or another, is exactly what needs to be done in this country.

Due to “Blogger” giving me trouble with editing and formatting my blogs in Robetron's Rumblings, I have switched to WordPress. You may click this link to find the blog:

Sojourning Here in Fear

1 Peter 1:16 Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy. 17 And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear

God bless.

It Is Still Difficult

2006-09-12T14:35:00.001-04:00

I spent most of the day yesterday (9-11-06) in pursuit of things unrelated to the fifth anniversary of the most horrifying terrorist attack in the nation's history. I tried to treat it like most any other day, preparing clothes and such for another week driving across the country, getting ready to attend a Gospel Meeting at Benton Harbor Church of Christ (with Bro. Tom House). Brother Steve Baisden brought the meeting to my attention, and invited me to dinner with his family before we left on the two hour drive to get there on time. I had to be properly groomed and dressed for the occasion, so most of the afternoon was spent in anticipation of this delightful time spent with brothers and sisters in Christ, worshiping the true God of Heaven together. Indeed, the time was more than worth the two hours both ways, but in all of this, I spent no time watching TV or any of the special dedications, speaches, or memorials for the people and events of 9-11. By the time I arrived home last night, it was nearing midnight. I almost felt a little guilty. I flipped on the tube, and turned to my favorite news outlet to see if there would be any repeats. I cought the last few minutes of a show. It was then that I realized that I knew in advance how those images and discussions would impact me, and that this is probably why I tried to avoid it for the majority of the day. I knew it would all but incapacitate me. Within moments of the minute by minute coverage on that day, tears were streaming down my face. Hearing the cry of people on the street that day caused my chest to convulse and heave. I managed to keep from an outright bawl, but it was not easy. The show ended and I changed to the channel, not looking for anything in particular, but ran across The Late, Late Show with Creig Ferguson, one of my favorite late evening distractions. Rather than a great deal of levety, however, Creig was maintaining a somber atmosphere, interviewing people who were there at the Twin Towers that day. Hearing their voices crack and tremble while re-telling their stories was enough to keep me choked up through to the end. At the end, Creig thanked the audiance for allowing him to take the rout he did with that evening's show. He mentioned the fact that he did not want to talk about those things, and that was a clear indication that he needed to do so. These were my feelings exactly. I changed the channel again, now willing myself to seek out a further outlet for the expression of grief. TLC was airing a 'special' on 9-11. I watched. I wept. It is not "too soon" to memorialize anything regarding that day. I think the country needs to remember that day. The country needs to remember not only the sadness and horror, but also the outrage and the sense of one-ness that that day brought. For a very short time, there was no more Demacrats and no more Republicans, no more rich or poor, black or white, no more hyphenated Americans with another nationality attached. We were all one people under Old Glory, the angry elder brother whose younger subling had just been beaten up by the playground bully. A few weeks after September 11, 2001, the movie "Spiderman" came to theaters, and toward the end, I could not help but notice a very subtle insertion of a patriotic theme. Spidy was battling his enemy in the skies over New York while a cround of New Yorkers looked on and some found themselves theatened by the bad-guy. Just as the bad guy was about to attain a victory, he was pummeled by sticks and bottles from the crowd looking on from a bridge. A rather large burly man with a hardhat and flannel shook his fist a screamed, "We're New Yorkers! If you hit one of us, you hit all of us!" When the movie was over the closing image was that of Spidy perched on a flagpole with a proudly huge, flowing American flag. A lump comes into my throat just remembering that alone. Not nearly long enough after, partizen politics took over, the country became wildly divided again, and the status quo continued. This is yet another reason for mourning that day. We should not only mourn the loss of citizens, feel empathetic for those who went through it, or their families who lost loved ones, but we should also bemoan and lamment the hard-heartedness of a country whose leaders cannot allow a world changing event to change the way things are done in Washington. Of course, this only reflects the citizenry, which is even sadder yet. Maybe it is hard to remember the events of that day, but change is always hard, and things still need to change. -R.
