Crossroads

Posted by Farmer's Wife on Sunday, August 17, 2008 11:08:58 PM
I can't speak for all Conservatives but this Conservative is very frustrated with the way the Presidential race is playing out.  I have come to the conclusion that I must vote for John McCain.  I have come to this point literally kicking and screaming.  If Obama were a mere Democrat I would have been willing to vote for a third party or just leave blank the Presidential portion of my ballot.

Obama is just a man and while I know that he cannot do everything he puts forth, I also know that if both houses of Congress go majority Democrat, there will be precious little the remaining Conservatives, and we all know that all Republicans are not Conservatives, can do to stop the expansion of entitlements and crippling taxes, the appointment of far left Supreme Court Justices, the dismantling of the military, the legalization of illegals, putting foreign policy in the hands of the UN and of course giving the UN billions of $$$ that will not go to fighting poverty in Africa but into the hands of Muslim radicals assisting them in the genocide taking place in that country.

I do not judge Obama by rumors and inuendo but by his own words.  I can hardly understand how anyone who has read his books could possibly want to turn America over to him.  The words in his speeches do not make me tingle but they do cause the hair on the back of my neck to stand on end.  He overtly accuses America of being an oppressor, not only abroad but here at home too.  His global ambitions are clear and not hidden, yet his supporters still fawn over him.

I do not think he will win this election but if Conservatives don't find their voice and begin now to build a party that stands for the principles established in the Constitution, the next time around will be worse.  If the GOP can't be persuaded to return to Conservative values and be willing to stand on them we will loose the America that we love and become a Socialist backwash nation and a people under the thumb of government.

We are at the mercy of our leaders and it is becoming a scary place to be.  This is a crossroad and the choices are not easy, nor are they simple.  In four short years we will face it again.  The opposition becoming stronger as they lure more and more of the poor and disinfranchised into their net of promised security and fairness.

McCain got one thing right recently when he said "we are all Georgians".  I do feel like the people of Georgia must feel, between a rock and a hard place with no way to assure their future and their freedom.

All things work to the good of those who love the Lord and I pray there are still enough Americans who love him and can see through the rosy lies promised by the likes of Barack Hussein Obama.

Forced to Eat Crow!

Posted by Farmer's Wife on Saturday, August 09, 2008 11:38:34 PM
Anyone who reads my posts knows that I have been adamnantly  against John McCain, so I suppose you can now call me a flip flopper.  It has become crystal clear that Obama cannot be our next President.  He is just too radical and dangerous to allow him to become our leader.  A vote for anyone other than McCain or just staying home is voting for Obama.

Talk to the Animals!

Posted by Farmer's Wife on Saturday, May 31, 2008 5:19:56 PM
We the people have got to step up and take back our government.  They are acting like a bunch of hungry hyenas and seem to be doing everything possible to destroy our liberty.  Tell them what you think, over and over and over again!  There are several ways and several places that will assist you in doing this.

Numbers USA, www.numbersusa.com is a great place that offers and notifies you about all things relating to illegal immigration and every time Congress tries to sneak an Amnesty bill past us.  This site is run strictly on volunteer donations.

American Solutions and it's chairman, Newt Gingrich also has many and various ways for we the people to be heard.  Go to www.americansolutions.com.

The American Conservative Union is another good site.  Please go to www.conservative.org to find out more.

Please visit these places regularly and make you voice hear.  Please post any of your own favorite sites and let others know about them.  I will update when I find new sites or new information.

What Is The Truth About The Energy Crisis

Posted by Farmer's Wife on Saturday, May 17, 2008 10:22:01 PM
I know this is a question that I would like to have answered.  In pursuit of answers I ran across something that I think is worth you time to read, listen to and investigate along with me.  A man named Lindsey Williams is the author of a book named, The Energy Non-Crisis.  In it he has written an amazing story of what he learned while serving as chaplain for the oil camps along the Alaskan Pipeline.  I have no reason to believe him other than the facts and names he gives and the reasons he gives for why we cannot have the oil that is in Alaska and what it would mean for this country if we did.

I googled his name, Lindsy Williams and came upon a U Tube link to an eight part video presentation given by Mr. Williams and I intend to get his book as soon as I can.  I want to find out more and so should we all.  I have long thought that there was a whole lot more to the oil crisis than we were being told and now I am more convinced than ever.

to foreign oil producing countries?  These countries buy much of American debt along with China and others.

Now look at the dollars these countries are realizing from the sale of their oil in relation to today's prices and then look at the dollars being realized by oil companies.  Even the mind boggling amounts these two entities are realizing does not account for all the dollars being used to purchase oil by all the countries buying oil.  It would seem that someone standing between the sources of oil and the companies who buy it and turn it into usable fuels and they would be making money hand over fist.

Do we know if Exxon or any other oil company buys crude oil directly from the producing source or is there some sort of broker in between them?  If such a broker exists, would that not explain why after numerous investigation by the US government that they have found no egregious wrong doing by the oil companies?

I believe it costs about $5/barrel to bring oil out of the ground in most oil producing countries.  They do not refine it and it costs them very little to transport the crude to oil tankers transporting it to their customers refineries.

What would happen if there were an enemy of the USA who owned a very large oil supply and decided to bypass the broker between producers and suppliers and flood the market to China and other anti-American countries with cheaper oil than whatever the current market is?

I don't know the answers to these questions.  They are just something I wonder about.

The Best Way to Enslave A Nation

Posted by Farmer's Wife on Friday, May 16, 2008 11:37:36 PM

is to convince people to give up their liberty of their own volition. Al Gore and all the greenies are playing this dangerous game and people all across America are falling for it hook, line and sinker.

Now we hear them talking "climate change" rather than "global warming". Well since climates have been changing since the beginning of time, how can they be wrong?

Carbon credits and "cap and trade" agreements are nothing more than a new way to make money at the expense of the consumer of energy of all kinds. You can go to the following link and click on The Inhofe EPW Press blog or just google EPA Cap and Trade study for more info.

http://epw.senate.gov

Doomsdayers have been around always and used to be dismissed as the crackpots that they were. This new bunch, however, have it down to a science (forgive the pun) because they not only want your freedom, they are gonna get it along with all your money and they don't even have to fire a shot.

Whether you believe the earth is millions of years old or just a few thousand, doesn't it make you wonder how it has survived for so long without Al Gore and all his minions?

Now I have nothing against good stewardship and sensible, commonsense approaches to taking care of and respecting the environment. The radical nonsense we hear today is not being spread by people who are themselves conserving or preserving anything except their own fortunes and bigger ones in the future, nor is there anywhere near a consensus in the scientific community that humans have caused climatic changes.

Nature always has and still does adapt to environmental changes. Places that are covered in ice today, were once green and growing things and places that are green and growing things today were once covered in ice. All these things happened long before Al Gore decided to turn CO2 into a commodity that could be traded and sold and turned into gold in his pocket!

TODAY

Posted by Farmer's Wife on Saturday, February 09, 2008 11:01:14 AM
The moment we live in is always TODAY, and today is the first day of the rest of our lives.  For Conservatives in this election year all of the todays between now and that day in November when we will choose our next president are all very important todays!

As I write this, John McCain is the presumed nominee of the the Republican Party.  I don't need, as I am sure most of you don't, to be told by him, the media, the RNC or anyone else that he has changed.  Actions do speak louder than words and this man's actions a a United States Senator have been deafening over the last few years.  Time and again he has thumbed his nose at us and reached across the political aisle to Democrats.  These gestures have resulted in many betrayals to us and to our party.

I know that you already know how many things he has done from the "Gang of 14", which almost prevented Judge Alito from being confirmed and which makes it more difficult for any Presidential nominee to be confirmed to the McCain/Kennedy Immigration Reform Bill, which Congress tried to force down America's throat this past year, and that behind closed doors in an effort to get it done before we found out what was going on.  Over and over again the "Maverick" has proved that he is not our friend and indeed despises everything we stand for.

As the Republican Chair for my small precinct in Texas I will be working hard to defeat this traitor to our cause of conservatism,  the Constitution and the Bill of Rights because I am unwilling and yes unable to compromise one more time.

Please leave your comments and suggestions!

VOTE NO TO MACAIN IN NOVEMBER 2008
BY WRITING IN SOMEONE ELSE'S NAME AND REMEMBER TO VOTE FOR AS MANY TRUE CONSERVATIVES RUNNING FOR CONGRESS AS YOU CAN!  Personally I am hoping that all of us died in the wool, true RED, WHITE and BLUE conservatives will be able to come together and write in someone who truly represents what we stand for.

Folks vs. Politicians

Posted by Farmer's Wife on Saturday, November 11, 2006 12:28:12 PM
Here I am again, preaching to the choir, myself.  But, I find it very therapeutical.  I seem to be a reasonable person, and I agree with myself more often than not. 

If I believed what Democrats say on TH about conservative Christians, I would have to just shoot myself because of the hate filled, racist, bigot,  hypocrite  they say I have become.  Fortunately for me  I don't  believe  anything  Dems  say, at least not  when they are talking  about  those who disagree with them.  Sometimes though, if you listen carefully, you will hear them being honest about who they really are.

If there ever was a time for just ordinary citizens to stand up and be extraordinary it is now. The Democratic Party has been taken over by extreme Liberals and the Republican Party is being invaded by Moderate Liberals. So where does that leave those of us on either side who are Conservatives.  I know you think, "what conservatives on the Dem side?"  There are some believe it or not, my Mom is one.  She really isn't a Dem anymore, she just doesn't know it yet.

This is the time to hold the people we elect to higher standards. Making our voices heard by calling, faxing, emailing, and letter writing to the folks who hold our futures in their hands.  Make them understand that they are there to serve us, we are not here to serve them and that we are watching and listening to everything they do and say.

As long as we can be sidetracked by all the excuses and name calling, we the people will continue to be the ultimate losers.
