From the minister:
We were in slow-moving traffic the other day and the car in front of us had an Obama bumper sticker on it. It read: "Pray for Obama. Psalm 109:8".
My husband's Bible was lying on the dash board & he got it & opened it up to the scripture & read it. He started laughing & laughing. Then he read it to me. I couldn't believe what it said. I had a good laugh, too.
Psalm 109:8
"Let his days be few; and let another take his office. "
At last - I can voice a Biblical prayer for our president! Look it up - it is word for word! Let us all bow our heads and pray.

JFK'S
Secretary of State, Dean Rusk, was in France in the early 60's when Charles
DeGaulle decided to pull out of NATO. DeGaulle said he wanted all US
military out of France as soon as possible.
Rusk responded,
"Does that include those who are buried here?"
DeGaulle
did not respond.
You
could have heard a pin drop.
When in England ,
at a fairly large conference, Colin Powell was asked by the
Archbishop of Canterbury if our plans for Iraq were just an example of
'empire building' by George Bush.
He answered by saying,
"Over the years, the United States has sent many of
its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom
beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have ever asked for
in return is enough to bury those that did not
return."
You
could have heard a pin drop.

There was a conference in France
where a number of international engineers
were taking part, including French and American. During a break,
one of the French engineers came back into the room saying, "Have you
heard the latest dumb stunt Bush has done? He has sent an aircraft
carrier to Indonesia to help the tsunami victims. What does he
intend to do, bomb them?"
A Boeing engineer
stood up and replied quietly: "Our carriers have three
hospitals on board that can treat several hundred people; they are
nuclear powered and can supply emergency electrical power to
shore facilities; they have three cafeterias with the capacity to
feed 3,000 people three meals a day, they can produce several thousand
gallons of fresh water from sea water each day, and they carry half a
dozen helicopters for use in transporting victims and injured to and
from their flight deck.
We have eleven such ships; how many does France have?"
You
could have heard a pin drop.

A U.S. Navy Admiral
was attending a naval conference that included
Admirals from the U.S., English, Canadian, Australian and French
Navies At a cocktail reception, he found himself standing with a large
group of officers that included personnel from most of those countries.
Everyone was chatting away in English as they sipped their drinks but a
French admiral suddenly complained that, whereas Europeans learn many
languages, Americans learn only English. He then asked, "Why is it that
we always have to speak English in these conferences rather than
speaking French?"
Without hesitating,
the American Admiral replied, "Maybe it's because the
Brit's, Canadians, Aussie's and Americans arranged it so you wouldn't
have to speak German."
You
could have heard a pin drop.

AND
THIS STORY FITS RIGHT IN WITH THE ABOVE...
Robert Whiting,
an elderly gentleman of 83, arrived in Paris by plane.
At French Customs, he took a few minutes to locate his passport
in his carry on.
"You
have been to France before, monsieur?" the customs officer asked
sarcastically.
Mr. Whiting
admitted that he had been to France
previously.
"Then
you should know enough to have your passport ready."
The American said,
"The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it."
"Impossible..
Americans always have to show their passports on arrival in France !"
The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then he
quietly explained, ''Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day in
1944 to help liberate this country, I couldn't find a single Frenchmen
to show a passport to."

Quote For the Ages; writer unknown
This should be published Nation Wide
Great quote. To bad we don't know who wrote it....
The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to an electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.” -- Author Unknown

How Appropriate (and scary)
The man on the left is Nikolai Ezhov, the head of the Soviet NKVD from 1936 to 1940 (translated into the English alphabet, the People's Commissar for Internal Affairs, the forerunner of the KGB.) Ezhov was Stalin's right hand man and the architect of the Great Purges of the 1930s. Ezhov was executed on February 4, 1940 in the basement of a smal NKVD station in Moscow rather than the main execution chamber of the Lubyanka to ensure total secrecy, lest Nikolai Ezhov reveal embarrassing secrets about Stalin in a formal trial. He was succeeded by his deputy, Lavrenti Beria.

Those Silly Progressives; This is from a friend who is a DEMOCRAT!!!
The Yard Sign
5 Mar 2010
The yard sign...
Ralph, My neighbor is a "lefty" of sorts (Obama bumper stickers, gung-ho socialized medicine, "guns should be banned", etc.). So last week I put this sign up in my yard after one of his anti-gun rants at a neighborhood cocktail party.
The sign wasn't up more than an hour before he called the police and wanted them to make me take down the sign.
Fortunately, the officer politely informed him that it was not their job to take such action without a court order and that he had to file a complaint "downtown" first, which would be reviewed by the city attorney to see if it violated any city, county, or state ordinances, which if there was a violation a court order would be sent to the offending party (me) to "remove the sign in seven days".
After several weeks he was informed that the sign was legal (by a quarter of an inch) and there was nothing the city could do, which obviously made him madder.
I tried to smooth things over by inviting him to go shooting with me and my friends at the hunt club but that seemed to make him even more angry. I then asked him if he wanted to go to a Tea Party rally but again he declined my outreach efforts to bring about a better understanding between political and social opponents.
I am at a loss how to reconcile our long relationship (notice I did not say friendship), any suggestions would be welcome.

Presidential Arrogance, Low-Class Chicago-thug Style
So now our "president" addresses senators and congressmen by their first names when they have to call him Mister President. It's a typical intimidation tactic used by corporate chieftans, MSM media interviewers, and organized crime thugs. It just illustrates what this "president" is all about: power, control, and dominance over the people of this country. Given half a chance, this man would be a dictator, a third world banana republic dictator and we'd be his "loyal" supplicants. "John, the election's over, you can stop campaigning..." what an arrogant bastard. Mr. Obama you're a thug and no president. In order to be president, one must understand the United States Constitution; something that this man doesn't. He should go back and read articles I, II, and III all of which tell you all about separate but co-equal branches of government. He's the president, not the King, or Emperor or Maximum Leader as Noriega in Panama referred to himself. Mr. Obama is basically a low-class Chicago thug, nothing more, nothing less. Bravo to John McCain for standing up to this thug and not taking any crap from him.
