YUKKING IT UP: President Barack Obama took a joking and tone-deaf detour -- Daily Mail

During the Presidents press conference after the Munich shooting, Obama slips in a "little humor". You can hear the press laughing. Is this right? Click the link: Munich: Radical Islamist Terrorist Shooting-- President Obama Laughing

The Preacher

Psa 107:9-15

9  For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.

10  Such as sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, being bound in affliction and iron;

11  Because they rebelled against the words of God, and contemned the counsel of the most High:

12  Therefore he brought down their heart with labour; they fell down, and there was none to help.

13  Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, and he saved them out of their distresses.

14  He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and brake their bands in sunder.

15  Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!

I sometimes think all the preacher has to do is read the word of God. I understand this is not all he must do but the Bible has power of its own. When you read the words, and make the connections in your mind, then you begin to understand the great and awesome salvation He has given us in His son, Jesus Christ. 

"Oh that men would praise the LORD for His goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!" 

I'm Staying Out of Poltics, But...

I received an advertisement for a local church last week. On the front of the card there are two photos juxtaposed of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. On the back of the card is says, "Polls would indicate that a vast majority are disappointed with both options."  Then it goes on talking about a "third-party" -- God's Kingdom. Nice segue I guess.

Whether the polls would or do suggest a vast majority are not please with the candidates I don't know. I do know as a conservative I am definitely not please with Trump. I was talking with a friend the other day about how things turned out. He said, "It's almost surreal." I couldn't agree more. So who's to blame? Again, it's is willful ignorance: Ignorance and The Great Books.

Trump is not a conservative any more than Hilary is.

The frustration this primary election, heck, the last 8 years under Obama has cast a foreboding cloud over this great country. It shows. You see it in peoples faces. People form all walks of life talk about what's happening in the U.S and globally with concern, disgust, and dejection under this President. His administration is and has transformed this nation just like he said. And yes, the phony republicans in congress have done nothing to stop him. We are literally and figuratively bleeding out in so many ways. After this I'm done with politics. Well, at least on this blog I am.

Enough of my rant. So is Trump a conservative. No. I doubt he's even read the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution. If he's elected he'll probably need a tutor to bring him up to speed. But don't take my word for it, read "Trump vs. Reagan: What Is a Conservative? by Ken G. Kengor.
