Obama and Public Allies - Scary Stuff

Per Glenn Beck, check this out...

Investors Business Daily has a report about a group called Public Allies that Obama helped found and who's wife was executive director. It's a community program that supports non-profit work, but it's methods are questionable, let alone disturbing.

It's a must read!

One of the recruits stated:

"It's a lot of talk about race, a lot of talk about sexism, a lot of talk about homophobia, talk about -isms and phobias."

One of those -isms is "heterosexism," which a Public Allies training seminar in Chicago describes as a negative byproduct of "capitalism, white supremacy, patriarchy and male-dominated privilege."

The government currently helps fund this program through Clinton's AmeriCorps! And Obama has stated:

"We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded" as the military."

He's talking about funding Public Allies to the equivalent levels of the military. He also states:

"Individual salvation depends on collective salvation."

Doesn't sound Christian to me, does it?

Anti-American, anti-capitalist indoctrination paid by our tax dollars? That's the future if Obama is elected.

And the liberal media knows about Palin's daughter's boyfriend's hobbies, but they haven't investigated Obama after all this time about this???? No agenda there.

Either way, it's scary... very scary.

Purgatory, USA - Done... for now.

I finished the last edit of the first four episodes of Purgatory, USA last night... right before heading off to draft players for Fall Little League Baseball.

Talk about timing. God is good!

Does God want us to make more? Don't know, yet.

Palin Changes Everything

My wife and I sat down to see how Sarah Palin would handle the media spotlight with her speech at the RNC. And boy, did she kick some butt! Her speech was funny and real and prodding and feisty and right on the money. She made it look so effortless.

Granted, we never vote in a Presidential election because of the Vice-President, but because of who she is and where she came from, she can say with confidence so many things most Americans have wanted said.

Here are some snippets of her speech last night that I found particularly effective...

*****

I had the privilege of living most of my life in a small town. I was just your average hockey mom and signed up for the PTA.

I love those hockey moms. You know, they say the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? Lipstick.

Before I became governor of the great state of Alaska I was mayor of my hometown. And since our opponents in this presidential election seem to look down on that experience, let me explain to them what the job involved.

I guess -- I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a community organizer, except that you have actual responsibilities.

I might add that, in small towns, we don't quite know what to make of a candidate who lavishes praise on working people when they're listening and then talks about how bitterly they cling to their religion and guns when those people aren't listening.

No, we tend to prefer candidates who don't talk about us one way in Scranton and another way in San Francisco.

Our opponents say again and again that drilling will not solve all of America's energy problems, as if we didn't know that already.

But the fact that drilling, though, won't solve every problem is no excuse to do nothing at all.

Starting in January, in a McCain-Palin administration, we're going to lay more pipelines, and build more nuclear plants, and create jobs with clean coal, and move forward on solar, wind, geothermal, and other alternative sources. We need...

We need American sources of resources. We need American energy brought to you by American ingenuity and produced by American workers.

*****

And now, I've noticed a pattern with our opponent, and maybe you have, too. We've all heard his dramatic speeches before devoted followers, and there is much to like and admire about our opponent.

But listening to him speak, it's easy to forget that this is a man who has authored two memoirs but not a single major law or even a reform, not even in the State Senate.

This is a man who can give an entire speech about the wars America is fighting and never use the word "victory," except when he's talking about his own campaign.

But when the cloud of rhetoric has passed, when the roar of the crowd fades away, when the stadium lights go out, and those Styrofoam Greek columns are hauled back to some studio lot...

When that happens, what exactly is our opponent's plan? What does he actually seek to accomplish after he's done turning back the waters and healing the planet?

The answer -- the answer is to make government bigger, and take more of your money, and give you more orders from Washington, and to reduce the strength of America in a dangerous world.

Here's how I look at the choice Americans face in this election: In politics, there are some candidates who use change to promote their careers, and then there are those, like John McCain, who use their careers to promote change.

They are the ones whose names appear on laws and landmark reforms, not just on buttons and banners or on self-designed presidential seals.

*****

This world of threats and dangers, it's not just a community and it doesn't just need an organizer. And though both Senator Obama and Senator Biden have been going on lately about how they're always, quote, "fighting for you," let us face the matter squarely: There is only one man in this election who has ever really fought for you.

There is only one man in this election who has ever really fought for you in places where winning means survival and defeat means death. And that man is John McCain.

The real test will be when she spares with Biden during a debate. But, right now, wow, I wouldn't want to face her.
