What’s disturbing about this picture?
Posted on Prison Planet-By The Economic Collapse-On February 16, 2012:
“You might not want to read this article if you have a weak stomach. Most Americans have absolutely no idea what is going on in the dark corners of America, and when people find out the truth it can come as quite a shock. Many of you will not believe some of the things Americans are doing just to survive. Some families are living in sewers and drain tunnels, some families are living in tents, some families are living in their cars, some families will make ketchup soup for dinner tonight and some families are even eating rats. Some homeless shelters in America are so overloaded that they are actually sending people out to live in the woods. As you read this, there are close to 50 million Americans that are living below the poverty line, and that number rises a little bit more every single day. America was once known as the greatest nation on earth, but now there is decay and economic despair almost everywhere you look. Yes, money certainly cannot buy happiness, but the lack of it sure can bring a lot of pain. As the economy continues to decline, the suffering that we see all around us is going to get a lot worse, and that is a very frightening thing to think about.
The following is a half hour documentary produced by the BBC entitled “Poor America”. Trust me, this is a must watch. Your heart will break as you hear some American children talk about what they have to do for food….
Wasn’t that video absolutely mind blowing?
Those of us that still live comfortably are often completely unaware of what life is like out on the streets of America at this point.
There are millions upon millions of Americans that have lost all hope and that are living on the very edge of life and death.
And more join the ranks of the hopeless with each passing day. This upcoming weekend approximately 80,000 people in the state of Michigan will lose their unemployment benefits.
So what are those people going to do after that?
They have already been unable to find work month after month. Their savings are most certainly gone. Now the only money they had coming in is going to be eliminated.
Yes, I have written many times about how the U.S. government is absolutely drowning in debt and cannot afford to be giving out so much money. My point here is to show the other side of the equation. There are millions upon millions of Americans that are barely hanging on and there are no jobs for them. The suffering that those families are going through is very real.
Millions of other families are trying to get by on the incomes they pull in from part-time jobs. According to Gallup, the percentage of Americans that are working part-time jobs but that would like full-time jobs is now higher than it has been at any other time in the last two years. The number of the “working poor” just continues to increase, but most Americans don’t have much sympathy for them because they “have jobs”.
Well, when you are making 8 bucks an hour it can be incredibly tough to make it from month to month.
Just look at how much it costs to buy the basic things that we need.
Without gasoline, most of us would not even be able to get to our jobs. The price of gasoline has increased 83 percent since Barack Obama first took office, and it is poised to soar even higher. Right now, the average price of a gallon of gasoline in the United States is $3.51. Never before has the average price of gas gone above $3.50 so early in the year. Many believe that we could set a new all-time record this summer.
But last year was bad enough. In 2011, the average American family spent over $4,000 on gasoline.
So when you are making just a few hundred dollars per week, it can be a massive struggle just to put gas in your car and food on the table.
The article that I wrote the other day about the decline of Detroit really struck a nerve. All over America, people can see similar things happening to their own neighborhoods. People are scared and they want some answers.
Well, the truth is that we should have never allowed tens of thousands of businesses, millions of jobs and trillions of dollars of our national wealth to be shipped out of the country.
Just check out this stunning photo which compares the decline of Detroit to the rise of Shanghai, China.
Do you think that it is just a coincidence that Detroit is falling apart and that cities in China look sparkly and new?
No, the truth is that it is a natural consequence of our foolish economic policies.
There are hundreds of communities all over the country where third world conditions are setting in. For example, the following is how one bloggerdescribes what life is like in a decaying suburb of Phoenix called Maryville….
Crime and gangs are widespread. Most houses have either fallen into disrepair, or been remade with outside walls sporting spikes and ironwork. Many of the front lawns are now just dirt (or worse, gravel), the pools green and lethal.
Now we stand on the precipice of another major global financial crisis. Economic conditions in America are going to become significantly worse. The politicians in Washington D.C. may make sure that the boys and girls on Wall Street are always taken care of, but there will be no bailouts for the large numbers of Americans that are about to lose their jobs and their homes.
If you want an idea of what is coming, just look at what is happening in Greece. 25 percent of the businesses have shut down, one-third of all money has been pulled out of Greek bank accounts and unemployment and poverty are absolutely rampant.
For years, a lot of prominent voices out there were screaming and yelling about the dangers posed by our soaring trade deficits and our soaring budget deficits.
But the American people did not listen. They just kept sending the same politicians back to Washington D.C. over and over.
As a result, soon millions of those same Americans will find themselves doing things that they never dreamed that they would do just to survive.”

I. CBO: Longest Period of High Unemployment Since Great Depression!
Posted on US News and World Report-By ALEX M. PARKER-On February 16, 2012:
“After three years with unemployment topping 8 percent, the U.S. has seen the longest period of high unemployment since the Great Depression, the Congressional Budget Office noted in a report issued today.
[Dems Tout GOP Payroll Tax Plan as Political Victory.]
And, despite some recent good news on the economic front, the CBO is still predicting that unemployment will remain above 8 percent until 2014. The report also notes that, including those who haven’t sought work in the past four weeks and those who are working part-time but seeking full-time employment, the unemployment rate would be 15 percent.
The CBO made its comments in a report examining the long-term effects of joblessness, and possible policy options to boost employment, including unemployment insurance reforms and job training programs. The report came at the request of Democratic Michigan Rep. Sander Levin, but Republicans quickly jumped on the chance to bash President Obama’s stimulus program, which is also reaching its three-year anniversary today.
[Virginia is for Lovers—and Politicos.]
“The stimulus is a stark reminder of how the president got the policies he wanted, and how those policies have failed the American people and are making things worse,” said Texas Republican Rep. Jeb Hensarling.

II. Unemployment Tricks: Jobs Claim Made by 'Shrinking' Workforce!
Posted on NewsMax.com-By Andrew Henry-On February 6, 2012:
“Last week, the White House claimed that unemployment dropped for the fifth consecutive month to 8.3 percent — the lowest it has been in nearly three years — after adding 243,000 jobs, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
But financial experts are saying the figures may have been manipulated — and that the significant drop in employment was because of the fact that the federal agency charged with computing key economic data has significantly decreased the number of Americans in the workforce.
“If you hold the workforce participation rate constant over the past year, unemployment would be about 8.9 percent instead of 8.3 percent,” GOP economist Matt McDonald of Hamilton Place Strategies said Monday on CNBC’s Squawk Box. “So it is a weird number that is out there, and I think people have to be looking at that carefully.”
The same Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) report that showed unemployment dropping to 8.3 percent showed total workforce participation — the number of people either working or looking for work — declining by 1.2 million people in one month.
The unemployment rate is determined by dividing the number of unemployed job-seekers by the total labor force. By reducing the number of workers in the overall workforce, the Obama administration can show actual unemployment dropping, when, in fact, improvement has been marginal at best.
Many economists feel the official statistics seriously underestimate how bad the unemployment situation really is. They maintain that the key measure is the number of people who would like to have a job, but can’t find one.
When people retire from the workforce because of the aging of the nation’s population or give up looking for work because of prolonged unemployment, the BLS declares the unemployed person a “discouraged worker.”
At that point, the BLS lists them as “marginally attached to the workforce,” and they no longer are considered to be part of the nation’s working population.
Dropping them off the employment calculations keeps the unemployment rate substantially lower than it would be otherwise and has been key to the improvements in the unemployment numbers during the past year.
Tyler Durden of Zerohedge.com writes: “It appears that the people not in the labor force exploded by an unprecedented record 1.2 million.”
In fact, Zerohedge notes that BLS is breaking records in claims about the shrinking workforce. The most recent unemployment number was based on the assertion that the entire U.S. workforce has shrunk to a 30-year low.
An analysis by Joseph Curl of the Washington Times shows the labor force as a percentage of the available population hit 66 percent in October 1988, and remained there throughout the presidency of George H.W. Bush. It then reached 67 percent or better for 40 straight months during President Bill Clinton’s presidency, and was above 66 percent for virtually all of President George W. Bush’s presidency.
But by the end of President Obama’s first year in office, it had dipped to 64.6 percent, before dipping to just 63.7 percent last month — its lowest point in almost three decades.
One analyst who is stridently critical of the BLS numbers is TrimTabs.com CEO Charles Biderman. His firm uses what he considers a more modern and timely measurement, actual tax receipts to the IRS, to calculate employment.
By his firm’s calculations, the economy added only 44,000 jobs in January, not even enough to keep the unemployment rate from growing.
The BLS numbers “are just guesses,” Biderman tells Newsmax. “I don’t know whether they’re politically motivated or not.”
The White House is doing “cartwheels” over the positive jobs numbers being promulgated from the BLS, the Christian Science Monitor says.
“These numbers will go up and down in the coming months, and there’s still far too many Americans who need a job or need a job that pays better than the one they have now,” President Obama said. “But the economy is growing stronger.”
BLS spokesman Gary Steinberg tells Newsmax that the bureau publishes its methodologies for calculating the unemployment rate online. While its tweaks its various formulas to keep them up to date, he states there has been no major change in how the rate is calculated in over a decade.
“The definitions have not changed . . . if someone is not actively looking for work for the four weeks preceding the reference week, they’re not in the labor force,” he says. “That was true years ago, and it’s true today.”

To: Rabbi Dr. Katherine H.
My name is Bob Casper and I am a tea party patriot and a member of the California Tea Party. First things first welcome aboard, and how would you like us to address you (Dr Katherine, Rabbi, or...) and thank you for assuming the California State Tea Party Directorship.
What I would like to know what are your view points and key goals of this establishment. My one and only goal is to remove President Obama from office. Another term and he will have completely destroyed the United States of America. The problem at hand is not Newt, Rick, Mitt, or Ron Paul. Any of them will suite our purpose in the end. It will not be perfect, but it will be light years a head of where we are today. So no more bad mouthing the GOP candidates. We need to up hold them all and only focus of the conservative advancement we are seeking in this years election, with the primary being the eviction of Barrack Obama out of the White House along with all of his socialist czars.
The second and highly necessary objective is to take over the U.S. Senate. We need to get rid of Harry Reid as the majority leader! We need all three branches if we hope to turn this mess around. We need to downsize government, bring back more and more social programs back into the States, and let them govern through these progresses at the State level and let the people at the State level control the fraud and abusing going on.
Let me get one thing very straight! Social Security and Medicare are not welfare or entitlement programs. They were pay by the people to off set retirement and medical cost as they age. While they were never intended to defer or offset all of the costs, they were to be there to ease the process of retirement when income is fixed and unexpected bill would come in. The people paid for this insurance policies to get through the tough time. Both of these programs were to be put in trust funds and they were not! The Federal Government stole this money from the tax payers and never returned. Now the federal government is allowing illegal aliens to steal from it also.
Welfare and food stamps are entitlement programs, the Federal Government was not put in place to provide these entitlements. The States and the communities and churches were put in place to help these people through their charitable contributions. This was a help hand up not a hand out. In the bible the Apostle Paul spokes about that each one should be responsible for them self and work for pay; unless they had physical or mental disabilities that would prevent them from working. It was the communities, churches, and charitable organization were there to provide for these individuals.
So if, I may address you as Katherine, are these your objectives, to get the Country back to this type of governing?
Warm regards,
Bob Casper

The United States now belongs to the invaders. Not just mexicans, invaders from all over. But mexicans are the vast majority of invaders.
The invaders get special treatment. Most pay no taxes. They scarf up food stamps, welfare, education in our public schools,medicaid, free healthcare in emergency rooms, and are exempt from all our laws. They don't get driver's licenses or liability insurance .
I rarely see hispanic names in the arrest reports from either the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff's Office or any town police departments.
Have they been ordered not to arrest invaders? If so, by who? If not, why are all of law enforcement scared of the invaders?
Why have we allowed our country to be overrun with foreigners when there aren't enough jobs for American citizens?
Why are the American people sitting back complacently while foreigners take over our country, aided and abetted by our own national government? Why does our national government consider the American people to be the enemy? To be vanquished and enslaved....It's sad that there's so little protest. It seems the communist have already won.
THATS PART OF THE REASON YOU ARE PAYING $4.OO OR SO A GALLON. THIS SUMMER IT MY GO TO $5.00 OR MORE A GALLON. ICOULD NOT BELIVE IT. BUT ITS TRUE IF FOX SAID SO i BELIVE FOX MORE THAN I DO THE DEMOCRATS.
In 1973, I studied the Constitution with the idea of using it to protect my God-given rights. I took aim at the IRS. Who in this right mind would do that? When I studied the Constitution, I imagined that voices of the past were speaking to me. I had a bigger than life calling. At the time, my world was in ruins. Everyone I knew felt that I brought it all on myself. My wife, who was divorcing me, advised me to see a psychiatrist.
By 1975, I was working on a minimum paying job, living from hand to mouth, and without one friend. The IRS was threatening me with seizure of my property. The only property I owned was a ten year-old car, which I used to go to work. The IRS said, mistakenly, that I owed $1,500 in tax, penalty, and interest. Actually the IRS owed me a $5,000 refund. Not a soul that would listen to me. I was seen as an illegal tax protester. While some may fall through the cracks, we know, it is the good of all that counts. That’s not the law.
I had petitioned the Tax Court on the IRS mistake. The IRS had frozen my $5,000 refund. The IRS offer was that if I agreed to pay the mistaken tax, the remainder of the refund would be sent to me. That isn’t what the law says. The IRS is above the law. But that’s OK. It is the good of all that counts.
I was being treated as a single with no dependents. Twenty percent of my meager wages was being withheld. I had a nighttime job. I arrived at my one room apartment at 1:00 am. The key would not unlock the door. I didn’t have the money to pay my rent. Not a soul in the world cared. I didn’t exit. How many homeless people are the victims of a care-not, hypocritical America?
Job was tested on his faith in the Lord. I was being tested. There was no doubt in my mind that I was going to win. I called the police. Within an hour, I had the new key. My landlord had not gone through the legal procedure to lock me out.
The lawyer that handled the property settlement agreement called to tell me my wife was successful in getting our agreement repudiated. I would have to fight her in a trial. At least I had the money awarded to me to pay my rent while I waited for the trial. The court ordered my wife to pay my living costs. I hired a divorce lawyer. He was confident that I would win. I didn’t have to pay anything up front.
The court awarded me most of the property. In trying to take it all, my wife got little. The IRS lost. I received my $5,000 refund, plus interest. The IRS dropped its $1,500 claim.
In the story of Adam and Eve, the serpent in the tree of knowledge of good and evil told Eve to go ahead and eat the forbidden fruit, that she would surely not die, but would know good and evil the same as the gods. Adam and Eve both ate the forbidden fruit and were ashamed of their nakedness. They covered themselves with fig leaves. God, seeing them covered, knew they had disobeyed. He kicked them out of his garden. Adam was forced to plow the ground.
Authority tells us that since Adam and Eve sinned, all who followed would be cursed. What was wrong about what Adam and Eve did?
My cousin, Reverend William Pruitt, was a Presbyterian missionary in the Congo twenty-five years. On a revisit to a primitive village in the jungle, my cousin found that the elders of the church he established had a problem. An old woman would not give up the idea that God lived in a tree near her hut. Unable to convince the woman that God lived in heaven, the elders cut down her tree. The old woman died of a broken heart.
I say the tree in front of the old woman’s hut was the same as the tree in the midst of the Garden of Eden, and it was not a serpent in the tree, it was God. Everything in the story of Adam and Eve lines up with my idea. Animals know only good. Animals don’t cover themselves. Animals don’t plow the ground.
There is no better way to control people than to make them feel guilty. “Oh, there but for the grace of God go I.” Give the homeless guy on the corner a dollar and feel good. It is a codependency. Reason says cutting down the tree in which God lived was evil. Those good African Christian trustees didn’t know that. Our Creator gave us the ability to know good and evil, and to act accordingly. The Bible is the moral story of man, and full of deceit. It is up to us to read the Bible and decide for ourselves what is true and what is false. The story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden is about a farfetched as anyone could get.
Authority runs into something that is generally unknown. Believing itself the more responsible custodian, these control freaks tell whoppers like the tree of knowledge of good and evil. It is the same in the whoppers being told about UFOs. Our sin is not using the reason with which we were created.
When I read the story of Adam and Eve, with God in the tree and the serpent earth-bound authority, it’s perfect fit. God told Moses to tell the people his name was “I am that I am.” In Genesis 1:26. “And God said, Let us make man in our image.” In Genesis 1:27, “God created man in his own image.” “Higher Law” the background of the U.S. Constitution is the law. Do you like war? The current fraud of the United States of America is the serpent. Before you try to take the splinter out of other eyes you need to take the log out of your own eye. Is it going to take another war?
Reverend Pruitt passed on to me a story that could change the world. It took a primitive African woman to tell us where God lives. With this in mind, I’ve written my personal story of how I made all of my dreams come true. My memoirs will soon be published under the title, In Earth as It Is in Heaven 2012.

“True Biblical Restorative Justice, And Tax Free !!!”

“True Biblical Restorative Justice, And Tax Free !!!”
I am in hopes that in this and the next few articles presented as in a series, I will be able to share and help all of America to understand as well as begin implementing the return of our nation to common sense through Biblical principles. All of the articles will include Bible Scripture quotes to reinforce each area discussed. I pray that not only the “common man” will benefit from these articles but also that of Legislators, those of the Executive Branch and all in the Judiciary will pay close attention to these principles as well. I cannot think of any time in our nation's history other than right now, that we need the Lord Jesus Christ and His help for “We The People.”
In case you were unaware, the USA has more laws on the books of all the nations in the world yet, we also have the most incarcerated. Many Americans are under control of probation, parole and other types of supervision throughout the U.S., State and of local Governments law enforcement agencies. Statistics via the U.S Bureau Justice Statisticshttp://bjs.ojp.usdoj.gov/index.cfm?ty=pbdetail&iid=2237 specifically shows us that;
- “About 7 in 10 persons under the supervision of adult correctional systems were supervised in the community (4,887,900) on probation or parole at year end 2010, while about 3 in 10 were incarcerated (2,266,800) in local jails or in the custody of state or federal prisons.
With so many Americans increasingly participating in illegal activities, we must take a real and honest look not only at these persons committing the criminal acts but also at the judicial system which punishes people for laws broken and any“illegal infractions” made. Stating as such, let's now have a short overview of American law and it's origination shall we ? We know, and all should be keenly aware that the origination of our nation's laws were designed to have minimal intrusion but at the same time guarantee protection of all it's citizenry from those that would go astray from common law and do us harm. Most of you understanding and probably agree with me with this precept of early American History, we can also most probably also agree that our nation's laws have become a facade for what they were originally intended. They have become a false or fake representation of what our American Founding Fathers presented to us as what was best for the “government of the people.” It would seem that many of our current laws in the USA are no longer designed to protect us but rather they are designed solely for the purpose of the class of profiteering elites such as government officials, judges, lawyers, police officers, and their special interest groups. I believe an appropriate example of such laws passed and utilized for profit gained for these elitists are Traffic Laws. Here, we see that laws that were originally designed so that government agents could be hired to guard our roads and highways In reality however have become “punishment for profit”laws. These laws are solely designed for a financial reward incentives for these elitists previously mentioned. Traffic “tickets” often carry a mandatory fine for the local government/court where the infraction was made plus there is often a mandatory “surcharge”(TAX!) for the state level elitists as well. Many government officials willingly admit to, and without shame utilize traffic law “offenses” to raise revenue for themselves. A local or state government is low on cash ? No problem.... just send the cops out to “catch” people “violating” alleged Traffic Violations. How about this one; were you aware that in New York State and in other states, for every “guilty” plea in Traffic Court, the judge presiding over that court receives a “fee.” I call that coercive justice, others may call it “the law”- you choose the wording you like.
Perhaps placing enough blame here in the article against our government and the many unfair practices of the government elitists, let us not refrain from also taking time now to look within ourselves and see how we also contribute to violating laws that we know are only designed for our benefit(there are some yet still). For not all laws exist to profit a special class of people in the USA, some laws were actually designed to help guide us and truly keep us safe from evilists. Thesecertain laws (that I believe most of you will agree with and that) were looked to as the foundation for all our laws by the Founding Fathers; they are called The Ten Commandments (Deuteronomy 5;1-17). Those are laws we should all abide in.... after all, I don't really think any of us should be involved with murder, adultery, lying, cheating stealing and all the rest of what the Bible declares as evil do you ? Again, our American Founding Fathers knew that the Bible, that is; Biblical principles are what gives us freedom as well as the blessings in following them. These men who wrote our earliest American documents were also keenly aware of the curses associated with not following those Biblical precepts as we can see from James Madison's quote; hear
t“ We’ve staked our future on our ability to follow the Ten Commandments with all of our heart. We have staked the whole future of American civilization, not upon the power of government, far from it. We’ve staked the future of all our political institutions upon our capacity… to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.” [1778 to the General Assembly of the State of Virginia].
Our Republic was made so that there would be fair and Godly justice dispensed and those who violated those laws would be given fair justice. Today, we can see that it is not only our government agents who willingly violate Godly precepts, there are many in the USA who also willingly violate God's mandate to follow His plan for our lives and our nation. We need to restore our own lives and our American Government back to what our very own U.S. Founding Fathers envisioned for our nation and that is to place the God of the Bible at the helm of our nation, families and personal lives so that there may be a clear understanding that following God in all areas brings happiness, blessings and avoids God's wrath upon our nation.
To the degree of true restorative justice, we need first to take the personal responsible act of repentance before Jesus Christ for sinning and turning away from Him and following our own selfish desires. Every American, rich, poor, elitist and other needs to abide in repentance-you cannot purchase or bribe your way with God. Repentance for all is step number 1, the second step is that we need to corporately as a nation, a a society and as a people do the same. This means our leaders must take affirmative action in coming before God and making a change not only in their own personal lives, but also in their man-made laws they have allowed to violate God's precepts and principles. Thirdly, and perhaps lastly, those leaders in our government, churches, anywhere that hold authoritative position over us who refuse to repent, must be removed. One cannot Biblically restore a nation of people without the total removal of evil. 2Chronicles 7:14 states " if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land. “ Upon this last Bible verse quoted in this paragraph plus the faith combined upon the finishing work that Jesus Christ did upon the cross at Calvary is what America needs now. Always has been, and always will be what America and the world needs. We as a people and a nation have drifted far left of God's righteousness and His ways. Justice and government is often corrupted in America and an increasing number of us, sadly, ourselves stand on the wrong side of God. Justice will return to us as we repent and honor God in our lives and nation once again.
Every bible believing Pastor, every Bible believing Christian has the ability today to do what the Bible declares. Each Bible believing Christian has the ability to teach Godly precepts and principles to others, especially in America with so many Christian resources such as Bibles, teaching books, CD's, DVD;s, and many other resources available to us. These resources are not “treasures to keep to our selves”, they are to help others. The Bible declares in Proverbs 27:17 “ Iron sharpens iron; so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend. “ Every church in the USA should have an outreach ministry to arrested, incarcerated men and women across our land. The vast majority of people incarcerated are not first time offenders, rather they are multiple arrestee's who very often also come from fatherless and parent-less homes themselves; http://capaassociation.org/newsletter_N009/Articles/FatherFactor.htm...
- “Approximately 70 percent of men in prison come from fatherless homes.Additionally, 85 percent of all youths in prison come from fatherless homes “
There is a need for Christians not only in the jails to teach and mentor men and woman Biblical precepts, there is also a need for that connection to a local body of believers in Jesus Christ to government leaders as well as the incarcerated. As the United States Government spends billions of tax payers money on wasted government programs that provide little in the way of stopping jail recidivism, the correct and only taxpayer FREE program that is tested and proven reliable time after time is a person restored Biblically.
To see a person wholly restored through Jesus Christ is one of the most beautiful acts you can ever witness. I have seen where Biblical Christians have acted as a sort of mediator between a criminal and his or her victim to see genuine repentance and lives restored. They understand and are convinced the same Jesus that lives in them also will deliver life to a person who is spiritually and emotionally dead...
2Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. 18 Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation."
For some of you reading this article perhaps you are thinking this is some sort of political liberal “get out of jail free card” or being “easy on criminals”, it is neither. What I am sharing does not reduce a jail or prison sentence nor does it enable a convicted criminal to commit more crime or re-harm their victim. What I am sharing is mostly contingent upon a government agent, convicted criminal’s or our very own heart; whether they or we are truly sorry and also wishing to make right to a victim what has been done wrong. Some victims will never accept repentance from an offender at any stage and that is their right to do so but many victims do want to see their own lives restored after being violated and will receive a truly repentant offender's true cry for mercy and forgiveness. For a victim, true repentance can certainly help in the healing process as well as likely prevent a convicted criminal from re-arrest and incarceration. It's a win-win for everyone involved when there is Biblical justice applied.
To my fellow Americans, we stand at the crossroads of either further cultural disintegration or returning to what our American founding fathers knew worked best. Which would you rather have, continued incarceration and an upsurge in crimes in America coupled by our government participation in the wicked cash making and spending business at our freedom's expense ? or would you rather follow the Bible, and see our freedoms restored ? Personally, I will take the Biblical way every chance I can get.

I am a n American who votes regularly. I pay my taxes as has my family and friends since we we here!
I have studied the economy for 2 years now. As well as watched and lived in ground zero. Las Vegas, NV.
I also had friends in New York during Ground Zero.
DO NOT LOSE TRUE TAX!!! IT WOULD WORK....
Sincrely,

Sometime Sci-fi can come up with some very, very good ideas. In the book 'Starship Troopers', sentencing for people in position of authority were different that normal citizens. A Minor crime done by a Elected offical was automatically a felony offence.
It would be great to have the sentence for any elected official at least 3 times longer or costly than the same offence for a unelected citizen.
Maybe in that case, they will think much longer before they vote for a long list of laws, knowing they could be spend years for a crime that could put us in jail for a few months. This could have a huge effect at state level for sure.
Also any crime that includes any jail time at all, removes them for office as well, and if a Grand jury orders a trail, they are suspended from office until trial is over. If they had every been in Jail, they couldn't hold a politicial office, or even Elected in the first place.
I think that law would empty about half of the US Congress the moment it was passed! LOL!
If we really want to be informed about the candidates, we should know first, do they believe in God, or do they think they will become a god, when they die, and rule a planet, and then marry a mother god, and have "god children".
The Founding Fathers, were all Godly men, and had come over from Britain, to escape religious tyranny. For example, Mitt Romney may have "christian views and possibly family values, but he does not believe in a all-knowing God.
Mormonism in fact is a cult, which has nothing to do with God Jehovah Shalom, creator of all things.
Anybody can say they are a Christian, and hold down a church pew, on Sunday, but, do they know what the Word of God says, and how it pertains to them, and do they have a world-view. Do they believe that Jesus Christ is the Only Begotten Son of the Living God? And if so, Are they Born-Again, by The Holy Spirit, and have they Repented of their Sin, and accepted Jesus as their :ord and Savior?
You should get the book, "The Kingdom of The Cults", from www.christianbook.com, and truly know what the candidates are of.
Also, check out the DVD's, that are at Compass.org.
A couple that really let us know what is going on, are:Artificial Intelligence and the Return of the Nephilim ( Nanotechnology and scientists trying to construct a third strand of DNA); End-Time Prophecy Deception (Satan's throwing more dirt and spreading more lies than we can keep up with); Satan's Top Two Cults (Mormonism and Jehovah's Witnesses; neither believe in The God of All Creation);Answers for Atheists, by Frank Peretti (Have you noticed that atheists are going on the offensive?); In Defense of Israel (If you want to really know what's going on in the world, watch Israel!); Here Come The Muslims, by Chuck Missler (We are in a world war and no one wants to admit it. But pretty soon it will be us vs. them. More facts than you can shake a stick at.); The Dangers of Evolution, by Kent Hovind ( Talks about the lie of Evolution. There is No fossil Record, because the world was not created over Millions of Years. God gave this planet to Adam, 6,000 years ago, and said to Replenish the earth, be fruitful, and multiply thy seed.
There were Dinosaurs here on the earth, from the time of Jesus, up to around the 1200's A.D., but they were called dragons.
From Compass.org, there is a DVD, by Bob Cornuke, that describes an expedition he went on, with Buz Aldren, in search the real Mt. Sinai, and they did find it, but it is not in the Sinai Peninsula, and there are the ritual ashes from the time of Moses, still there.
The Bible is The Holy Word of The Living GOD. There is only ONE GOD. GOD JEHOVAH SHALOM.
Everything that Obama has done, the Nazis did first. Obama is trying to be like Hitler, and in fact, he is an Anti-Christ.
He has done everything he can that is against God. He has no values at all, and is in fact, a muslim, and hosts muslims, on the weekends in private get-togethers.
He is really on the vergew of being a Dictator, and has gotten lessons from Hugo Chavez.
He has pushed all things for the Homosexual Agenda.
Did you know, that 90% of Hitlers SS troops, who were in charge of the concentration camps, including torture and gassing of over 6,000,000 Jews, were HOMOSEXUALS. Hitler had grasped the Evolution Lie, that said that only the White skinned people, were meant to live, and that all others came from apes, and are sub-human; This is the same as the Democrats are doing in the world right now.
The Democratic Platform is one of a Godless society, in which the government has complete control of everything.
Obama is pushing for complete equality of Gays, and yet, when a man and a woman get married, they are destined to be together, by God, and it is Until Death Do We Part; But with Gays, they will always have sex with over a thousand guys a year, and most of them, even if they have AIDS, will still have sex with other men, and will not tell them, so they will get aids from them, and they also will die. They have no morals, and life means nothing to them, because, even if they are infected with aids, they will still have sexual relations, and not tell the guy that they now have aids.
We could stop; AIDS from spreading, just by stopping Homosexuals from having sex with up to a thousand partners a year.
Just because they are married, does not mean that sex is between the two of them. I have a friend, who is Gay, and he had a party at his home, a number of years ago. He had four guys over there, and they all got drunk, and they all had sex with each other. I was there the next day, doing some Electrical work, and they asked me if I would like to hop into bed with them. Each of these guys had other partners, who did not come to the party, and some lived in Guerneville, Calif., and some in San Francisco.
A true Believer in Jesus, is a Follower of Jesus. The only person ('s) in the running, who have true values, are Michelle Bachman, and Rick Santorum. Remember, the Democrats are for Communism, which is against all gods.
Go says: If you are not for ME, then you are against ME; and if you are against ME, then you are for your father, the Devil, who is the FATHER of LIES.
EVERYTHING THE DEMOCRATS TELL US IN THE MEDIA, IS ALL LIES; THERE IS NO TRUTH IN THEM.
YOU SHALL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUITS.
Another place you can go, is Truth in Action Ministries, and get the DVD, titled: Global America, Rebuilding The Tower Of Babel.
Also, did you know that the Democrats were the ones that had the slaves, and they were, and still are the Ku Klux Klan. They have always been against God, and are in fact for making this country go bankrupt. The want a godless, one-world government.
Pay attention to the lasttrumpetministries.com. The Lion is the head of the Tribe of Judah, and about three months ago, radioastronomers heard a loud roar, like that of a lion.
If you watch the Word of God, and Prophecy in Daniel, Zechariah, Psalms, and Revelation, you will see that God's return, is really close.
If you have not accepted Jesus as you Lord and Savior, then you better, because he coming back any day now.
Once you are dead, it is too late.
If you are a Catholic, then Compass has a DVD called "What Catholics Don't Know", and also one called, "What Catholics Should Know".
Catholics sins have NEVER been FORGIVEN, because it is done by a Sinning Priest. It has to be done be the spilling of blood, by a SINLESS person.
Jesus was beaten and tortured, and then was hung on a cross, and then died there. He then went into Hades, and conquered Death, and then after three days, he rose from the dead. JESUS IS THE HOLY ONE< and THE SON OF GOD. Mary never was holy. There iis no Pergatory. If you have not accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, before you die, then you will go to hell forever.
In their isolated inside the beltway arrogance, it appears the Obama administration did not anticipate the huge “blow back”, resulting from Obama's decree that Catholic institutions provide birth control, abortion drugs and other contraceptive services.
This latest attack on the unborn is simply more of the same from Obama. As an Illinois Senator, Obama voted against the Born-Alive Infants Protection Act which authorized hospital staff to give medical assistance to babies who survived failed abortions. Before the Born-Alive Act, hospitals were legally forced to leave an unsuccessfully aborted baby to die. Some died quickly, some clung to life for several hours. Obama voted against Born-Alive Act three times. http://blackgenocide.org/planned.html
But folks, Obama is not alone in his callousness towards the most innocent of human life.
Think of the Secular Progressive Movement as a pro-abortion patchwork quilt of various anti-America groups. These people hate everything about America from the light bulbs we use, to our consumption of beef, to our love affair with the automobile. They believe America is the greatest source of evil in the world; everyone else in the world has too little because America has too much.
Now get this folks – a large number of these environmental zealots are mega-wealthy Hollywood people and democrat politicians who live in mansions and travel everywhere in limos and private jets. They consume more fuel and resources per month then most of us will consume in our entire lifetime. I was shocked when I picked up a government funded brochure at my local library which laid a huge guilt-trip on young couples instructing them not to have a baby to “save the planet”.
Abortion is the thread which joins each wacko anti-America patch of their Secular Progressive quilt together. Why? Why is the left so fanatical about killing human babies? If it is about “choice” as they claim, why are they infuriated when a woman “chooses” to have her baby? Case in point, the left's hysterical outrage over the Super Bowl ad in which Tim Tebow thanked his mom for not aborting him.
“Colored people are like human weeds and are to be exterminated.” Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood. Seventy eight percent of Planned Parenthood clinics are in black neighborhoods. Blacks only make up 12% of the population, but 35% of America's aborted babies are black. Half of black pregnancies end in abortion. Is this an intentional genocide?
“The most dangerous place for an African-American is in the womb” Pastor Clenard Childress, Jr.
Blacks are the only minority in America experiencing declining population.
So, why would Obama, the NAACP, Rev. Sharpton and other black leftists be passionate supporters of Planned Parenthood? Why did Al Sharpton threaten to protest a pro-life billboard which exposed the devastatingly high number of black abortions? http://bit.ly/ed7XL9
Why? Why are these leftist blacks more loyal to their Holy Grail of abortion than they are to their fellow blacks; all the while claiming rich white Republicans and the Tea Party are the enemies of black America?
Why are so-called African-American activists, all democrats, at odds with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr's niece, Alveda King who is a committed Christian pro-life advocate? http://bit.ly/A6pPXF
What is up with these people on the left? Why do the same folks who passionately defend the life of a whale, spotted owl, baby seal, a toad and a death-row serial killer, get extremely angry at the mere suggestion that a woman consider not killing her baby? Why?
I can only conclude, it is a spiritual thing. I know what some of you are thinking. There you go again Lloyd bringing God, good and evil into the mix. Well, there is something extremely evil and godless about the left's obsession with killing babies.
Obama's obsession is so strong he is willing to risk reelection. How else can you interpret Obama basically giving Catholics the finger, of which, a majority supported him last election? I once thought Obama voted against the Born-Alive Act and passionately supported Planned Parenthood to secure the hard core radical feminist vote. I was wrong. Obama's commitment to abortion goes far deeper. Limbaugh nailed it, “Abortion is the sacrament to the religion of Liberalism”, of which I, Lloyd Marcus, believe Obama is a zealot.
Arrogant ego maniacs have a tendency to overreach. Who was the guy in Greek mythology who flew too close to the sun despite being cautioned not to do so? Oh yeah, Icarus was his name. The wax which held his wings together melted and Icarus fell to his death.
Mr. President, you may have flown a bit too close to the sun with your latest in-your-face attack against people of faith. Even the “superglue” of your race will not be able to hold your wings together this time. I pray that come November, your fall will be great.

Today money was taken out of social security once again,but how many people will notice,not many.
The true is money has been taken out every year,that's why we are 2billon short. But who really cares.
how can we just sit here and just write about every thing that go on in Washington DC, the reason why is because we put the very people in office that said they will listen to us but again when the job gets hard they give in. It is time that we really look at the person or persons we may went to put in office. we need to see if they really do care.It will be hard to do but it can be done. we do not need to know how he walks with God ,we do not need to know how he is with his family,or we need know is the person. I went him or her look me in the eye and not till me another lie.
Can one allow our country that is so precious to be destroyed with oppression and reppression of the freedom of speech? Answer please
Miracles are associated with the supernatural, and the supernatural with external control. From the supernatural, we’ve seen Salem’s burning of witches at the stake. We’ve seen the World Trade Center brought to the ground and thousands of people killed.
What is it that causes miracles? In my case, it wasn’t external. My good fortune is all internal. The mass of a body is a measure of its energy. Out of a release of energy came the universe. From releases of energy, from the explosions of supernovas, came the elements on which we depend. Releases of energy—cyclic, orderly, changing all—but the space-time universe is not all that is. Our human reality is relative to a great many factors we don’t see, at least at this time.
From the Big Bang came stars. Exploding stars gave us the elements that go to make our planet. The elements provided a place for life, making the statement that there is order in the universe—an orderly release of energy—but something more has come to the mind of science, something responsible for order. The universe is both quantitative and qualitative. First comes quality. In all, from the smallest excitations, there is the quality of consciousness. Consciousness, the substance of the newfound reality that defines the observer, says quantum physicist Evan Harris Walker, has fundamental existence. We observers interact with matter.
Everything falls under natural law. Miracles are not supernatural. They just haven’t been explained yet. While at sea, I saved seven lives, one of them being my own. The signs keep showing up. After thinking and going over my life these many times, I’ve come to realize how important we are, beginning with the individual, potentially creators of reality. Knowing this, it makes utterly no sense to allow external control freaks to make our reality.
You know that from nothing you get nothing. For something to exist, it requires consciousness. Consciousness is eternal. When Bell’s theorem was put to experimentation, photons, tiny packets of energy, once connected, no matter how far separated, instantly communicated, giving rise to a holographic universe—the idea that it is the same information no matter where you are.
Consider that the universe is more than the space time dimension. The evidence is there. Consciousness, the substance of the newfound reality that defines the observer, has fundamental existence, says cutting edge of science Evan Harris Walker in the Physics of Consciousness.
Various orthodoxies preaching the supernatural hold that we get only one chance. What better way to maintain control? “Lord, send them to hell if they don’t do what I tell them.” Say I, “to hell with them.” I cut from the establishment, went on my own, and miracles occurred. When everything should have gone wrong, everything went right.
What kind of a world would this be if everyone looked within for his or her answers? Would we be killing one another? I don’t think so. There are those who think I’m a nutcake. I think we are killing one another for the control freaks of the world. When have you heard even one of them ever hint what I say? Why aren’t we all struggling to gain control of others? Listen to them with that in mind. Why is my life as good as it gets and their lives not so good? The answer: we are not sick in the head. They and their following are sick in the head.

Willie Nelson: Occupy The Food System
February 17, 2012 by Sam Rolley
I was sent this info in an email.
UPI
Willie Nelson has been a longtime advocate of family farmers.
Country star Willie Nelson is joining the fight against corporatism in America, though his focus is not on the banksters on Wall Street.
Nelson is calling on Americans to occupy the food system, saying that corporate control of food production is destroying soil and putting millions of family farmers out of business.
Nelson writes in a recent statement:
From seed to plate, our food system is now even more concentrated than our banking system. Most economic sectors have concentration ratios hovering around 40 percent, meaning that the top four firms in the industry control 40 percent of the market. Anything beyond this level is considered “highly concentrated,” where experts believe competition is severely threatened and market abuses are likely to occur.
Hundreds of citizens joined Occupy the Food System groups outside the Federal Courts in Manhattan on Jan. 31 to support organic family farmers in their landmark lawsuit against agribusiness giant Monsanto. Arguments were heard that day concerning the lawsuit by 83 plaintiffs representing more than 300,000 organic farmers, organic seed growers and organic seed businesses.
The suit alleges that Monsanto has attacked organic farmers, threatening patent infringement lawsuits if the farmers have any genetically modified seeds on their land. But the organic farmers really want nothing to do with the genetically modified seeds in the first place. The organic farm community contends that Monsanto’s lawsuit threats are simply a ploy to put small, family-owned farms out of business, thus further monopolizing agribusiness. A judge will decide whether the farmers’ suit will go to trial on March 31.
MR. CONGRESSMAN THE APOLOGY YOU REQUESTED.
Apologize, why should I? Until you contacted me I really hadn't considered it, what's more, I can't think of any logical reason why I should. Simply because I'm not shy about the fact I have no admiration or respect for Baraka, most of his administration and many in the house and senate. No, I will not apologize for it. However I will say, I completely lack any respect for them, you and I offer the following in support of the contempt you and they have earned.
I'm not a "touchy feely" kind of guy like liberals and progressives. If someone acts like an idiot or behaves like a fool I am not going to entertain their ignorance and stupidity. I have no difficulty letting them know they are either an idiot, a fool or stupid and often, as with this administration, all three..
A large part of my ancestry is Native American mixed with a little Irish, German and I've been told some black. I claim my Native American blood more than the rest, it fits best with the way I think. I consider myself fortunate to be of mixed breed because it gives me a better chance of having some beneficial character traits than a pure breed might have. I mention this only so you have some idea with regard to my point of view.
Because of my heritage some might believe I should have less pride in our country than someone who's ancestors came here from Europe. Nothing could be further from the truth. When I reflect on the sacrifice and struggle that "brought forth upon this land a new nation" I understand the desperate need of mankind to be free. My God given right to be a free man is a powerful emotion I hold dear. When I contemplate the reality that there are those who seek to remove my freedom, tell me how I think, raise my children, where I may and may not go, etc an instant rage overtakes my very spirit.
America, because of the vision of a few courageous, wise, and loyal men, became the greatest achievement of mankind in the history of the world. This achievement came at a very high price for those who struggled and fought to make their vision a reality. On September the twelfth, seventeen eighty seven, a single document, inspired by God and forged by the blood of patriots, gave birth to the greatest nation on earth. This document, nothing more than words on a piece of parchment, became the most powerful utterance of mankind in the history of the world, and it remains so today. Originally thirty nine men signed the Constitution Of The United States Of America, each staking their fortunes, their sacred honor and their very lives on it.
America became beacon to those living under tyrannical governments and totalitarian regimes. It became a beacon of hope offering every man woman and child the dream of freedom, liberty and justice. By the thousands they came, all willing to accept the rules and laws necessary to become a part of this glorious experiment in human dignity. It wasn't easy for them, but then what worthwhile thing is easy.
They struggled to make their lives in America and all were rewarded for their sacrifice. Almost every one of them became outstanding citizens and never complained about the hard work or that the government didn't feed, clothe and house them. All they felt was gratitude, because they were at last free.
The United States of America is very different now. Far too many America's citizens have been manipulated, cheated and robbed of their dignity. Millions of our citizens have been enslaved by ultra rich people calling themselves Liberals and Progressives who hide behind the guise of being Democrats. These Liberals and Progressives created the most destructive programs to human dignity ever devised. They disguised their scheme as a compassionate humanitarian effort called welfare and food stamps. They knew once they had a large segment of the population accepting their poison it would be like an addictive drug. They would then control their victims lives. The most immoral part of their scheme is the how it destroys its victims individual identity and dignity. Those caught up in the welfare and food stamp scheme will never know the pride and dignity of knowing individual responsibility. Their lives will always be limited by the attitudes of filthy rich Liberals and Progressives who decide how much or how little the "disadvantaged" should receive. Welfare, food stamps and almost all government assistance programs have evolved into permanent chains of slavery for those who receive it. Every time I find myself in need I never seek assistance from any government program. The only place I ever seek assistance is inside myself, there is always a way I can succeed in America without selling my dignity and honor to some politician. Anyone receiving government assistance is not free, they have simply accepted slavery.
So, Again Mr. Congressman, apologize? Never, why don't you apologize for your inhumanity, corruption, disloyalty and abuse of our Constitution and your position? I'll be glad to accept your apology here on Face Book as well. No, I won't publish your name, though I should, you simply have too much company amongst your peers to single only you out. There is more Congressman, if you can handle truth keep reading, I will be surprised if you have read this far. I continue:
America Is and has been from its founding the greatest nation on earth. The undisputable and only reason our Republic is in trouble at this time is a direct result of dysfunctional leadership, misguided and corrupt welfare programs, and a great lack of ethics and morality in the Whitehouse and halls of congress. The United States will again be the great nation is has always been. However, congressman, it will have nothing to do with you or anything you say or do. It will be because Freedom loving people will see to it that you and those like you are removed from your positions. You already know this, you can see the contempt most have for you, you no longer enjoy the respect or positive regard you once did.
Hopefully when you are out of office we won't be bothered by you again, if you have any self respect you will simply fade into obscurity and keep your dishonest mouth shut. I would hope many of you are tried for the theft, treason and other crimes you have committed against our people and our Constitution. Apologize? Hell no!
Not too long ago we were Honored and privileged to have a president known as Ronald Reagan, now we are cursed with a tyrant known as Baraka Obama along with the two most incompetent congresses America has ever known. We have come to a point where intelligence has been replaced by intellectual ignorance, intellectual narcissists and credential worshipers. Our highest positions are held by elected officials many of whom are ignorant of ethics, devoid morality, and completely incapable of performing the duties and responsibilities of their offices. Because they are unable to do their jobs and they lack even a small amount of courage they are willing to allow the most destructive unconstitutional president in history destroy what millions sacrificed and died for.
And finally I want to let you know one thing your Liberals and Progressives have given us where our society has broken down. It makes sense that there would fewer women becoming Lesbians if fewer men were of the "touchy feely" kind. For sure there would be fewer homosexual men if society would allow boys to be boys and grow into men. I know it seems I am off subject, but I think you see the connection. I can't speak for anyone but myself, but when I hear people say a child abuser or molester is simply misunderstood or "youth attracted" as though they are "expressing their love", well... I simply want to puke, that is your world not min.
Mr. Congressman, I hope this will fulfill your request that I apologize, if not, I don't know what you expect considering what you have given me to work with, your reputation.
Respectfully,
Art Phillips
