The news of the day was the new Health Care Reform Bill that the Supreme Court found to be in fact constitutional. What a mess that was! What our Chief Justice did in my mind is equivalent to a professor grading a term paper and changing the term paper so he can give the paper an "A". The President knew this Bill had to be a Tax to be upheld in the Supreme Court, he just wanted the courts to say it. The President loves to "Pass the Buck". It frustrates me when I hear The White House officials blame the Bush administration. The "Change" that our President spoke of during the election of 2008 is not what allot of us had in mind. Why is our government so at odds with each other?? The bi-partisanship is nauseating! I understand that the two parties have differences of opinions and a hard time getting things done but it should never be at the expense of the citizens of our great country. This new Health Care Reform Bill to me is equivalent to a person who needs a new car. Their current car works but not great and they know its not going to last them to long. The person can only afford a Hyundai but instead they buy a Mercedes Benz!!
Why did the government buy a Benz when they could only afford a Hyundai is beyond me. To me it feels like the government wants to go bankrupt!! The Hyundai would have been sufficient in my view. This Health Care Bill is going to bankrupt this country. I could understand the President trying something like this when our economic situation is better but to do this now is mind boggling. They should have fixed their current car to last them until they were financially secure to make this bold move to the Mercedes. This other situation with our Attorney General is sickening also! This man is the top law enforcement official in the US and by him not abiding by court ordered subpoena is asinine! What has our great country become?? A law enforcement agent has been killed by someones error and we should know what exactly happened. By some of congress walking out is disrespectful to our law enforcement professionals working hard and putting their lives on the line for our safety. All of congress should stand together and find out why this occurred and work as one in regards to our safety. The bi-partisanship must not be implemented here when a possible cover up or possible crime has or had taken place. There is a time and place for bi-partisanship but since lives were lost the "walk out" should not have taken place. Its a slap in the face to the fundamentals of checks and balances that our founding fathers implemented.
As a country have lost our way and we need to get back to knowing and acknowledged our Lord and Savior! Have people forgotten or know what took place during the War of 1812? In the summer of 1814 the British invaded Washington D.C and while British Admirals were eating dinner inside of the white house they ordered our nations capital burned to the ground. The British troops proceeded to burn the capitol when a massive storm came. The storm produced torrential rains that extinguished the fires and also produced multiple tornadoes that did major damage to the British fleet and troops. It is said that many of the British cannons were raised from the ground and landed on British tents. The storm of 1814 decimated their chances of over powering our capitol. This is not fiction this did happen!(http://www.weatherbook.com/1814.htm). God protected us then from the British invasion. Lets not be arrogant and think we do not need him now. I feel some people think their are no consequences for their actions. This country was great when we stood before the start of every school day and recited the pledge of allegiance to our flag and people went to church on Sunday and said hello to your neighbor and actually placed a call instead of texting or sending e-mails to one another. The world is becoming one big anti-social place and its kind of ironic that we are using multi-media to accomplish this! The more and more I see things and how they are drastically changing the more and more I realize the need of the Lord in our lives.
So much going on in our world today and we must keep up to date to whats going on in our country and our world because we are truly becoming global. The boundaries of countries are slowly becoming obsolete and what affects one affects all and that is very worrisome to me. Lets not turn our back on God! We need to do an about face and turn back to him to receive his blessings! God Bless and stay safe-- Blogger X
