Barack Obama Is A Disgrace To Our Nation
He has no business being President. He does not even know how to give a proper and tasteful gift to a head of State. He has dishonored the oval office by not dressing properly and not requiring others to do so. He wastes tax payer money by taking his wife on a date in airforce one to NYC. That same action shows he is no friend to the environment either. He dishonored our wounded warriors when he took his tour of Europe during the campaign. When he was told he could not have cameras follow him to our hospital in Landstul he refused to go. After all a picture is worth a thousand words but seeing first hand the soldiers who have sacrificed everything for his freedom is apparently worthless. It is my opinion that if he can he will turn us into a socialist nation, and if he can he will start with socialized health care. Socialized medicine is not what we want here in America! Why do you think those with money from other fully developed nations come to America for treatment? Because those nations have socialized medicine and they can't get what they need or can't get it in time. Now see what he has to say about gays and lesbians. Hat tip to Midnight Musings for the link. Let us rise up and condemn his actions while we still have a voice!

Sarah Palin And Her Clothes
Does anyone remember all the accusations running around the news rooms when Sarah Palin was the Republican nominee for Vice President? The ones I'm referring to were about the amount of money spent on clothes for her and the Palin family. They were accusing her of demanding all the clothes and demanding expensive clothes etc. etc. She denied having requested anything except for,"maybe a Diet Dr. Pepper."
Well now the truth has come out. She has been vindicated. I don't get much of American news out here, but I'm betting you don't see this on the news. If you do, please let me know where and what was said. According to this article, the clothes were bought by the RNC (Republican National Committee) and all of the purchases were legal. “The RNC states that it used its own funds to make the expenditures for the clothing and accessories. . . . We have no information to the contrary. As such, no candidate funds were converted to ‘personal use,’ ” it said. Please go to the article and read the entire thing. It isn't long and wont take much time, but is so worth it.
The sad/really annoying thing is that if they had found she had broken the law or lied or something, it would be headline news. All over the internet etc. No, I doubt it makes the news at all.

The Ignorance Continues
Boris you are as ignorant as you are crude. You are welcome to post a comment any time, but you are not welcome to be rude and crude. Websters dictionary defines theory as,"A proposed explanation whose status is still conjectural, in contrast to well established propositions that are regarded as reporting matters of actual fact." "Guess or conjecture."
I defy you to offer any proof. They have never found any missing link. They have never proven to anyone that life evolved from ooze.
I attended a Christian college. They did not teach evolution. It was discussed but only as an unproven theory. I also was a nursing major in a non Christian school. Evolution was not even discussed in any of the many science classes I took. Aside from that you cannot state that every Christian college teaches evolution as you clearly have not researched every Christian college. The Christian academic community, as a whole, has never rejected creationism.
The Bible does not say the earth is flat. Have you even read the Bible? You say,"No Protestant denomination accepted the findings of Galileo and Copernicus until 1835." That isn't true as Columbus had already discovered the world was not flat LONG before that.
You are so filled with hate. Why? No one is forcing anything on you. You came to this blog of your own will. If you don't like what you read don't read it. How simple. How easy! All you have done here is prove your ignorance. You state things that cannot be. You stated, "No Protestant denomination accepted the findings of Galileo and Copernicus until 1835. " You cannot know that as fact. I don't believe that you even know what all the protestant denominations were at that time, and I don't believe for one minute that you bothered to take the time to research the writings of every church. No, you choose to believe what others tell you without seeing for yourself if it's true.

Joy Behar Shows Her Ignorance
Joy Behar of the "View" stated on Tuesday's show that Darwins theory of evolution is "fact". This is not the first time she has run her mouth when she doesn't know what she's talking about. Clearly Behar cannot be bothered to do any research before attempting to claim her opinions are known facts. The theory of evolution is just that. A theory. It is nothing more than Darwin's idea of how things came to be. Evolution has NEVER been proven. I believe in the Biblical account of creation. I am truly happy that Joy left teaching, as ignorant teachers are part of the problems we have in America today. I don't mind ANYONE stating their OPINION about anything. I do however, have a serious problem with so many people in America today stating their opinions as facts, saying that "everyone" feels the same as the speaker or worse that "educated" "inteligent" or "smart" people in America agree with whatever they are saying. If you have an opinion and wish to state it do so, but please don't attribute it to the rest of us.
I also wish to say that I agree with the current (she may not be for long) Miss California USA who when asked stated that she feels marriage ought to be between a man and a woman. That poor woman! Asked her opinion in the Miss USA contest she gave her honest opinion. Now she is being persecuted for it. Was anyone else asked such a controversial question? I found it laughable that some of the people in California say she shouldn't represent their state because that is not representative of the way everyone in California feels. Well, please explain to me how one person is supposed to represent 2 very differing points of view? And didn't California just put gay marriage to a vote and it got voted down? So then doesn't her opinion represent the majority of the people anyway? Seriously, are the leftists in California so open minded that their brains have leaked out?
Back to Behar. The topic they were discussing when this came up was that a teacher in California was successfully sued by a student for making the statement that creationism is nothing but superstitious nonsense. Read the article here. No really, read it. It's short and worth the read. Everyone seemed to be against the teacher belittling the student's religious beliefs, but Behar argued with Sheri who is teaching her son creationism. Behar argued that "they have proof" about Darwinism and not about creationism. "All the scientists in the world" believe in Darwinism. Balderdash! Many of the world's finest scientists do not believe in evolution, because it has not been proven and there is NO proof. It is the fanciful theory of an agnostic. (Yes, I said agnostic. His views of religion seem to indicate that he felt all religions should be equal. Such a person may believe in a higher being, but clearly didn't feel it had much if anything to do with him). While I in my humanness cannot scientifically prove creationism, I look at a baby coming out of his mother and in no way can believe that this whole process began by something crawling out of primordial ooze. I believe the Bible. Everything else in it has been true. The Lord has proven Himself to me. I need no other evidence. It's called faith.

England
We went to England for 10 days in April. We stayed at the Strand Palace Hotel. The hotel is in a good location. Only 2 blocks from covent garden. We went to the London Hard Rock Cafe of course. Saw Buckingham Palace, Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, the town of Bath, the Tower of London and took a cruise on the Thames. Here are some pictures from our trip.

Belgium
We went to Brussles in March and had a great time. Here are some pictures. I had a lot more fun than I thought I would. We went down town to the open air market area and the square. There were lots of shops and eating places. We had Belgian waffles of course. Much better than Belgian waffles in the states. Alan got to use his French and Alaina just took it all in.

I'm Back
Sorry I've been gone so long. We've been pretty busy lately and as my family takes priority, my blogging as lagged. Anyway, today Alaina and I mixed a cake up and she licked the spoon! It was a first and we had a blast. We've taken a few trips. We went to Brussles in March and London in April. I'm going to post about those and put up some pics in the next few days. I had a nasty case of the flu. It was odd. Real influenza. I haven't had the flu for years and I got a flu shot too. Well it worked I guess. I got it. Anyway, having the flu stinks but if you get to the doctor within 48 hours of the symptoms starting you can get on a drug called Tamiflu. That stuff works and fast! Praise the Lord for pharmaceuticals! Well, I'm off. Lots to do. We are off to the Alps this weekend and my sister is coming in May. I have to get ready for moving and trips to Normandy, Paris, Italy and Austria. Along with all the things you have to do to live it keeps me pretty busy. I see the spell check still doesn't work on here. Why don't they fix that?

Busy Day!
So, yesterday I kept busy. Not that I sit around like a lump on a log every other day, however.
I got up and got dressed, got Alaina up and dresssed. Made and fed her breakfast. Made my decaf coffee. Did my Bible study. Studied my Spanish. Blogged. Cleaned up the kitchen. Unloaded the dishwasher and reloaded it. Ironed, folded and put away a load of laundry that was already dry. Played with Alaina. Made and fed her lunch. Put her down for her nap. Put a load of towels in the dryer. Changed the linens on my bed and Alaina's bed. Put my sheets in the washer. Changed the linens in the bathrooms. Got Alaina up from her nap and rocked her for a while. She just loves to cuddle! Alaina played with her upstairs toys while mommy straightened up our rooms. Made and fed her dinner. Had her pick up her toys downstairs and then upstairs. Got Alaina ready for bed. Cuddled with her while she had her bottle. Put her to bed. Read a magazine. Ordered some things online. Read some blogs. Went to bed.
Now mind you this is not the exact order everything happened in, but it got to Alaina's supper time (7 pm) and I couldn't believe it! It was time for supper and the evening routine! Amazing. Today seems to be going the same way.

Winter Blues
I'm looking out my window,
The snow is falling fast,
Discouragement is coming on,
I thought the snow had passed.
Take heart my soul!
I cheer myself,
This snow will not last long,
Spring will come
With new green grass,
And Winter lose its icy grip,
on Germany, at last.
I wrote this poem this morning as I looked out the window and found the ground covered with snow and more falling.
The snow is falling fast,
Discouragement is coming on,
I thought the snow had passed.
Take heart my soul!
I cheer myself,
This snow will not last long,
Spring will come
With new green grass,
And Winter lose its icy grip,
on Germany, at last.
I wrote this poem this morning as I looked out the window and found the ground covered with snow and more falling.

Food For Thought
A friend sent me this story in an email.
Take My Money, PleaseIn a local restaurant my server had on an 'Obama '08' pin on his work uniform. Not sure how much the server knows about the Obama plans for the country. But, this is a good time to do some practical study, and see how the Obama plan resonates with the real people of the world.When the bill came I decided not to tip the server and explained to him that I was exploring the Obama redistribution of wealth concept. He stood there in disbelief while I told him that I was going to redistribute his tip to someone who I deemed more in need--the homeless guy outside. The server angrily stormed from my sight.I went outside, gave the homeless guy $10 and told him to thank the server inside as I've decided he could use the money more. The homeless guy was grateful. However, he was no closer to getting a job, or a home. Just bought some smokes, and some alcohol.At the end of my rather unscientific redistribution experiment, I realized the homeless guy was grateful for the money he did not earn, but the waiter was pretty angry that I gave away the money he did earn even though the actual recipient needed the money more.I guess redistribution of wealth is an easier thing to swallow in concept than in practical application. I wonder what the server is going to think when Obama gets elected, and the redistribution is done by force of law?
