Jesus came to set the captives free

Friends,

I attended the One World Festival in Cleveland. I had a terrific time. Yes some of the festival I did not agree with, the part of the warm and fuzzy that we are all one, we all have the same god, peace and love and all that is just to New Age-ish for me.

What I did enjoy was all the different ethnic food stands. The displays of the different countries and nationalities that make up America.

I have no problem what so ever with the hyphen as in Italian-American, Irish-American and so on. I also have no problem with people waving their homeland flag or the flag of their ancestors as long as they realize as my family did many years ago, this is America and to act American apart from their festivals. This is what made America great. Different heritages, nationalities all coming together to form a unified nation.

The most disturbing thing I saw at the festival were the black hooded Islamic women. Do they freak me, YES! It disturbs me beyond words to see women wrapped up in bondage while the men dress how ever they feel. Besides do we know what they could be concealing, do we even know who could be behind that mask or what they could be up to?

I am very vocal when ever I see a woman dressed like that. There is no room in America for such dress or behavior. Before you even try quoting the Constitution you need to read about the history of the creation of this nation and how Islam was viewed.

In the book "Essentials in American History" written by Albert Bushnell Hart, c. 1905 it lists the reason why people came to America. They came to freely practice their Christian faith, to have religious freedom. Churches were of such importance that they were supported by public taxes. Meetings were opened with prayer. And there was a concern that non-believers, pagans and Mahometans could infiltrate our government. They founders of this country and early settlers had high esteem for God and their faith.

Some of the founders wanted to go even further in their restrictions against Mahometans at that time.

So what is it I said to this group of hooded beings? I said as they walked by Jesus came to set the captives free. This is how the brief conversation went.

Jesus came to set the captives free.

Excuse me, what did you say? This was from a fairly safe distance.

You heard me I said JESUS CAME TO SET THE CAPTIVES FREE, you do not need to dress like that, this is America.

I am free.

No you're not.

My ancestors were slaves I am free.

I'll say it again Jesus came to set the captives free, you do not need to dress like that, this is America. .

With that they walked away.

I would of like to engage them further with this question. Who freed the slaves? White Christians, not Muslims, white Christians. But when you have little time and if you want to avoid an argument, keep it simple stay on point and repeat. And without knowing it, they have heard in short the Gospel.

The next person I argued with was a man in a booth with a wheel and sign that said the Golden Rule which is - One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself.

On this wheel it showed many religions with Christianity being down towards the bottom. I asked why do you have Islam up there? He tried to say something about the golden rule. I said Sikhs are peaceful, Buddhists are and so are many others on this list but why Islam? Before he could answer I tore into him and said your Golden Rule is nothing but golden lies, why don't you go live where Muslims dominate, go to the Philippines where they bomb things trying to take over. Do you think they live by the Golden Rule? I just walked away in disgust.

My point is this people, wake up, speak up, or soon you will shut up because they have taken over. I have no fear how I say this. I am not ashamed anywhere to speak my mind. Islam is not a religion of peace, it does not treat their women with respect and it is not American or Godly and it definitely does not belong in this country.

“Oh Republican Party you've done it again!”

Friends,

Mr. Magoo speaking... “Oh Republican Party you've done it again!”

Last Thursday I helped man the Freedom Alliance booth organized by Kathleen Jagodnik at the Geauga County Fair. We had an unexpected visitor join us, State Representative Matt Lynch.

The reason? Matt Lynch's banner that read:

No Common Core

No Obamacare

NO Illegal Immigration

No Compromise

with Matt Lynchs logo above that showing a GOP elephant with a cross on its saddle circled by words Faith Family and Freedom was not allowed in the Geauga Republican Booth.

Rep. Lynch was so upset he joined us and hung his banner in the Freedom Alliance booth with a short note that read: 

This is the banner that was not allowed to be hung in the Geauga Republican Booth.

The Republican Party no longer has to pretend to be a party of the Christian Conservative Right. If the endorsement of the Gay Games by the Cuyahoga County Republican Party wasn't enough, this refusal to hang a sign that stands for what we believe in by the Geauga GOP is the icing on the cake. The GOP is now out in the open.

If they endorse homosexuality, won't openly embrace a hard-line stance with no compromise on common core, Obamacare and illegal immigration, we need to ask what does the GOP stand for?

                                      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Other than the excitement generated by Rep. Lynch I had a great time at the booth. Just about everyone who stopped was receptive and eager to learn.

When you are involved you think everyone has to know by now what our government is doing but that is not the case. I informed more than just a few on Agenda 21 and Common Core. People are fed up and just want their freedom back.

After my time slot was done I found the Geauga Republican booth. I wanted to see what was up with my old party. One volunteer I riled up a bit to the point she needed to do deep breathing exercises.

My conversation teetered on back and forth and going no where real fast. She refused to acknowledge that not allowing Lynch's banner in their tent was wrong. She also squabbled with me on the definition of what is a family. According to her she believes in family but her definition and mine might not be the same. She never did tell me what hers was. And she refused to admit US Rep. Dave Joyces 48% conservative rating was not worthy of her support. All she kept telling me is I support the Republican ticket over and over again with that I left.

Every time I turn around the Republican Party gives me a surprise. As Mr. Magoo might say - “Oh Republican Party you've done it again!”

Tax Dollars Being Flushed

 Hey Gang,
Your tax dollars are being flushed - literally.
Recently I stopped at a rest area on Rt. 86 in Chautauqua Lake New York.

Let me tell you... this has to be the most elaborate rest area I have ever been to. It's way over the top.

What's inside of this beautiful structure nicer than a lot of homes? A empty room where pay telephones use to be, a small room for vending machines, another small room with travel brochures and an information desk with more maps and brochures and an attendant to answer questions about tourism or routes. Oh and of course a men's and women's toilet with a family toilet squeezed between.

The outside is equally as nice. Its beautifully landscaped and cared for with a view of the lake that is awesome.  You could actually spend an afternoon here picnicking, its that nice.

I remember years ago most rest areas were sort of park like, a more natural setting, just a parking lot with trees to park under to get some zzzz's. For conveniences there was a hand pump for well water and pit toilets. Yes I do appreciate the more modern flush toilets but come on, are tax dollars really being wisely spent? Wouldn't a plain brick building with toilets get the job done as easily? After all what I am leaving behind is not a prized possession.

I think our taxes are being flushed away.

Gotta GoGo!!
Carey

ps: I need to add... it is scary that just about everywhere you go they are removing pay phones. Even the attendant here at the Chautauqua rest area agreed with me that removing them is dangerous. Suppose you have an emergency and you have no service or your cell phone fails with no one around? Now what?
