Taking News By The Steering Wheel

Let's face it everyday there is more news out there than we care to read and most sources have repetition going on to the tee. Who is out there reporting real news and real factual evidence that the reader can actually grab onto instead of rumor mill gossip? A hard question to answer with our country leaning right and left on issues and the media bias becoming harder to overcome. News articles are more opinion based than ever before with spin becoming the natural evolution to the news. Where are the real reporters? Who wants to give us facts without spin or lies or cover up. This last year has shown the corruption so clearly it was actually comical.
Election results were blurted out before they came in? How was this possible and they were almost beaming at the fact they could get the information before the polls put it out. Across the board the government uses the media and the media uses the government. We just need the news reported, reporting the news has become a sport like wrestling with little gratification.  What happened to freedom of speech? What has happened to ethics? What has happened to reporters? They all seek a headline or  story that will make them famous. So now we have actors as news reporters? Yes and it has been this way for a long time. I was actually watching a story on a murder that happened in Iowa years ago a reporter that suddenly ended up missing on her way to work. This was a horrible story because to this day years later there is no end to this. No remains and no evidence and no closure for the family. I was shocked by the news reporters she worked with and the reason is it seemed so unreal to me that in their statements they were so blank like nothing was there behind the pretty face. This story was years ago think of how it is now? How is it that this profession has become so desensitized that we just expect them to be perfect and we trust in them? Folks mostly they are reading teleprompters and written copy to us that they probably didn't even write. We just need to hear the news not the spin and not the pretty faces. We have become enamored as a society with actors and celebrities. It is getting worse just look at duck dynasty.
The most popular shows reflect our intelligence and let's see we have a bevy of shows from "Dog the Bounty Hunter" to "Storage wars." In recent years it's become even worse with "Basketball Wives" and "Keeping Up With the Kardashians"  If you look at these shows the news seems like diamonds in a bed of rocks. The funny part? well that Alec Baldwin actually got a show contract after all of his abuse in the media towards reporters and photographers. News stations are actually hiring movie actors instead of qualified reporters. Yes folks it is that bad and getting worse. I have personally turned to print and independent papers to get my news and facts straight on world situations and it would be nice to have a local news source that would report just the news and not some article saying nothing in three paragraphs, no facts, no names released and no information here folks we just wanted to stop your day to tell you something happened but we have no idea what it was.  This is how bad it is in print because there is nothing to report. Let's just throw stories out there because we have nothing to write! If there is no news how about some good news? Can't we focus on good things? I mean there has to be good things going on despite the political arena and the economy. How about the truth? Is this what we focus on in society? nope. Sensationalism has gotten so out of control that we demand it on large scale. Channels feed to it on large scale. South Park certainly never runs out of material. This needs to change. If we demand quality in our news casters we may just get it.
Supply and demand is how it works. If you like junk reporting keep as you are you are in good company however if you like real news and just the facts, I would suggest reading smaller news sources with real reliability. These guys are getting the stories and the bigger stations are actually reading them to get their stories. Strange but true. In my quest for the evidence of integrity I shall trudge on.

Thanksgiving Day 2013

First I want to say to all who give thanks on this day to have a happy Thanksgiving! Yes it's getting worse out there and times are tough and today is truly a day to give thanks to God for all he has gotten us through despite the people we live around daily. This country is far from the ideals our forefathers dreamed of and people are generally upset that their freedoms go as the unGodly are lifted up and praised. Even on the traditional things like Macys Thanksgiving Parade are corrupted for family viewing. It is far from a perfect life that is for certain. There are no rushes to justice there are just rushes to the store for black Friday madness.

To me this is just another reason to give thanks for all we have because if the forces that be were completely allowed to do their bidding we would not have anything to be thankful for. I am thankful for the years with my mother and all her recipes and that she is in heaven now and not facing this world as it is every day. I am thankful that one day my children will get fed up with praising evil and soon they will come and want the truth. I am thankful for my disabled veteran husband who loves me and keeps me his little wife and hugs me so much. I am thankful my Father is around and healthy for another year and hopefully I can fix the meal as fat free as possible. I am thankful for my brother who drives me crazy but is here to do so. I am thankful for my puppy and bird because without them the world just would not be the same. These are all things I can be thankful for I am thankful my family is alive and doing okay despite the challenges we have all faced in the last few years.

Now for some posthumous thanking. I thank God that this year the light will be shown even more on evil deeds and that more people will come to the knowledge of the truth as they see the darkness grow. I thank God that this train that is rolling over us will be stopped in its tracks and people will be rejoicing because evil never triumphs over good. It may cheer for a while but it is always stopped from harming Gods favorite apples who are his kids.

I am thankful that love will conquer the evil that abounds in politics and in false plateaus that stand right now. I am thankful that false prophets and false preachers will come to the realization that they compromise the only thing that saves them which is the gospel of the truth.

I am thankful that even though we are not perfect Jesus loves us and keeps us all and that he longs for every sinner yes even those who are prideful to come to him and have freedom and love and eternal life. I am truly thankful he gave his life for us and that we can be his kids at any stage of our lives even the end.
I am thankful that our enemies will be stopped from harming us and that the president be stopped from disarming us. On all levels we are being disarmed from knowledge to the military. I am thankful that this weapon formed against our country will be stopped and that those who love the Lord will rejoice.

I am thankful for my twitter followers who are wonderful and each day arm me and keep me on Gods precious word and on news articles that show the truth of the situations in our political arena. I am thankful for their precious care of posting and what they do each day to fight the evils that have set against us as a nation and our ideals.

Yes I am truthfully thankful for the food we have to eat and the shelter we have and the love that surrounds me each day. God is good and we will overcome and we should be thankful despite the times and the evils that befall us as a nation. I am also truly thankful for the persecuted and may God grant them the mercy and the strength to get through today despite the horrible things they face in prison and in their homes imprisoned by the tyranny of the enemy. May today be short for them and long for those who are not in this place. May God grant each of them the grace to make it through and for this I am thankful that he will as always be true to his promises with his love which will never end.

Friends despite all these things we must overcome the feelings and emotions and be thankful because being thankful is our weapon against it all. Our praise brings the promise and for this I am so thankful because Gods grace is sufficient for us all.

Happy Thanksgiving and may yours be a wonderful weekend as well!

New Horizon

 Our nation is coming aware that they are not being told the truth and that the hype and "conspiracy" theories are not just that. They are the truth this is the way things are and we must deal with our lack of  dealing. It's high time to come up and do the right things. Senator Ted Cruz did the right thing as well as nameless others who voted "nay" in last night's vote. What were they voting "Nay" about? being held hostage and ransomed for the ideals that this country stands for.
 Most would say this is not a win for the nation but I  among others do not believe this is so because more people now are listening and interested, they are involved in the political scene whether they wish it or not. A healthcare system that is failing and doomed to fail because it is based on monies not made yet and ideals that people deserve something for nothing. Actually people will just be tied to the insurance companies for good. As states began with "no insurance" fees this is the swallowing of a big ole snake headed by someone claiming to be for the people.
 People are involved, their identities, their privacy and their information in general will be in the possession of the tax man. The worst place to trust your health or life is an entity that is about taxing everything that happens to us as a nation and a people. This is shown throughout history. When government becomes "Big" government the people are not a country but in slavery.
 Do we really wish that this becomes what we are? Slaves? If you don't get involved you are still involved and accountable for what happens. Indifference is not a position to take at a time of trouble. Those who claim to be on top are a falling place for us. Was that the dream? Did I read a different version somewhere else that the dream was to be on top rather than to be equal and live in peace?
Socially equal does not mean ridding a nation that thrives on capitalism of it's opportunity to capitalize.
 These are the realities and the way things truly are. We have been a nation of indifference. Does your vote really count? Oh indeed it does even through corruption your vote will count and make a difference because you stood for the right thing. What is the right thing? capitalism? well in a world where you can move up the ladder of success it's a good thing and freedom to make a business thrive by drive is awesome. People who capitalize on others weakness, well no that does not make for a good life in general. Love is giving more and taking less and the world will give more back to you whether its happiness or friends or a wealth of knowledge to use.
  New days ahead of us? Yes I can see a future because all evil men go down in flames eventually and evil will always show it's ugly head no matter how innocent it appears in the beginning. No matter what lovely people it tries to hide behind it will always show its ugly using manipulating head to the surface and people will rebound to see that before they are taken down.
Martyrdom happens yes but people are educated now and realize that they have the choice, the choice NOT to be like everyone else but to be yourself, an original. Originality can thrive anywhere but it's best place to grow is a green full pasture. One with freedom to roam and rest and drive and thrive.
Hope shows its beautiful face on people who do the right thing and a new horizon awaits.

Stalemate

The sun is still shining the birds are still singing. Life goes on amid the crazy media posts that are trying to take us down as a society they roar and wave each day during this shutdown. Kids are still planning their costumes and wanting candy and Mom and Dad are supposed to keep going as if they fear nothing, life keeps walking step at a time.
That my friends is what we need to do, keep rolling on. Hurricane Sandy was a taste of the future with this head on top of things as it stands now. People are standing up and waking up to the haze they have been under all this time. The hangover is astounding the excuses are unreal but this is the reality. I believed in this? That's the question that haunts most people who believed in this. The truth also rolls on. Though the media keeps on spouting news to make people go crazy, to make them lose faith in a future for us all without their supposed savior. Listen folks there is no president or king-like figure that will save this society as it stands. Changes need to be made, our faith has been put in things rather than God. The pledge of allegiance to the flag states unequivocably.  "One Nation Under God."
 Though society says we need no God in our schools, and separation of church and state are what should be, society stands at a stalemate. This nation can't even decide who God is let alone what God is but yet our origins stand in "One Nation Under God" and upon our currency it states "In God we trust." Now I am not Albert Einstein but it seems to me that we are a divided nation and in that we are under "Divided we fall" category. Are we going to pull out? or go down in flames. We are in such a quandary now at this moment, why? Because we left all this behind to go our own way. This nation was built on principles that it has abandoned. It was built on trust in God literally, we print this every day on money. I suspect once that is taken down? If it ever is. it will be our complete downfall as a nation.

This nation was begun on traditions yes traditions like slavery and evil as well as the principles stated we do not trust in God we are not under God but wait, are we?  Even then men were judged they were judged by their actions in this nation or were they? Were they judged on speeches that made them who they were in our eyes? Is this just coming to an end as God decides who is really for him and not against him?  People argue the existence of God as they spend money that says "In God we trust."  They talk about contradictions, contradictions that equal no existence of God but yet they themselves spend money that says "In God we trust."  Who is really contradicting here, is it God or us? A world without God is coming about now because the people wanted a world without God.
Let's examine this shall we? Liars are praised and people are imprisoned for speaking the truth daily, but yet we want a world without God in fact we believe that this world is a mess because of God?
People use God like the money they so grapple to get and use others and use themselves up. Yet they blame God for it. Governments and not just the USA but all governments lie to their people and say this is what we want from you because it takes two to tango.  A country is not a country without its people.
Okay so you say how does this apply to me?  Where and how far are the contradictions in your heart. Where do you compromise? How do you compromise? and with whom do you compromise the things which are the truth. This nation like it or not was built on the freedom to worship God. It was built on this freedom as well as freedom of speech and those who would rant on about speaking freely don't want the freedom to use it in a way that edifies this nation but tears it down. This is obvious. but yet no one seems to catch on that this stalemate is exactly where our country stands morally and spiritually. It is going nowhere.The birds still sing and the kids still play but it is going nowhere and why?  Because  it's not just about this law that is being imposed upon us, those who did not and do not want the taxman handling their health care. The choices are limited in life why because government wants to control every part of each citizen no its not said openly but its truth why? Let's examine it, if a government controls its citizens it has complete control. There is nothing they can't get past its people.
 This country is a contradiction and it will fall because its been said in "Divided we fall." The question is how will it?
What will be the fall? Will it be the citizens who wake up and decide they are tired of contradictions or will it be a complete removal of God. Because even though people want that paper. It still says in God we trust. God set the standard in his word. It's all there in black and white and red. Without that standard this nation will not continue on as it has in prosperity despite its citizens. Let's also examine this.... How many lives are ended daily before they even begin out of the womb?  How many presidents have we voted in that voted for this? Oh and who stands in our way now? A congress who voted this in, laws that kill the innocent but yet no one sees this as a contradiction they see this as a choice. No the choice began and ended in the bedroom. This is not an opinion, a being begins living as soon as it is created inside a mother there is no choice to this it just is the truth. These things these "little" issues are why we are here right now because people who devour our own youth and they don't want to give up their own and feel it's a "choice" for mothers to carry their own babies. Amazing when even the victor that started this whole horrible period for our nation has changed her mind and is now against it realizing she made a horrible mistake. But yet a country rolls on over its youth and God rolls on judging that country.
 I say change is possible I say life is possible in a whole new way as Martin Luther King dreamed out loud against the posturing of liars and was killed for it. Amazing the similarity the pomposity of this society to say its a choice not a privilege to have a child. Yes these are the people who stand in stalemate against our future. I say let's re-examine our own motives before we move forward or this country will be divided by depression never seen or heard of in our history.
Wake up to what you believe in and stand on a side. Middle ground is not an option. The way I see it stalemate is mercy and we should be glad for that mercy not complaining about it. "In God We Trust" is not going away just yet. Take time to think on this and let it change your life today.

Dear America

As I sit today on Monday writing this blog. I think of the American dream. A place where we could dream and do whatever we wanted within our means to accomplish. People could start their own business and become their own employer without worrying about answering to anyone but their customers. You could be as large or as small as you choose depending on the work you put in. Things in this country are changing this dream. I am forty five years old and I have dreamed and done my dreams but now its becoming impossible to do them without penalty.
Our children deserve a chance to live this dream of freedom. If they thrive and strive to do the things they wish to do, they should be able to do them. Government is taking this dream and smashing it with laws that would shun the small business owner. For those who would go it on their own in this country and make as much or as little as they choose, this dream is being hampered by forced laws that do not make sense. If you want to do your own thing now you have to consider having healthcare imposed on you. A healthcare you did not choose to pay for but one that is implemented upon you. This is the death of the small business owner. Fees and fines and taxes that do not belong instead of being larger and facing larger problems as these the dream is being squelched now in the beginning phases. If you have an idea or a plan to become your own these laws immediately hamper overhead costs.
Starting out that is the major factor in being your own is the start up costs and now we have this added on the pile. Making this dream a near impossibility. Profit margins are lowered as you estimate your dream on paper. Any employees must be covered by healthcare now instead of that becoming a freedom and a privilege as the company grows it's now a right and a mandate. When did this happen?
When was our freedom taken? It was voted in at the polls.
Not only has this freedom been taken by this law others are being infringed upon. The right to free speech, these rights to say what is on your mind are what made this country. Our forefathers built this country upon the constitution which gives men and women the right to speak their minds. These freedoms have been taken from us based on a select few who abused the right. This is a travesty. Not only this but our rights to be free and to walk free without harassment also to drive free without harassment.
To be free without Big Brother watching over every move you make. When did it become okay for the government to read email? when did it become okay that you could not even have a private conversation on your own phone? When did become okay for these things to be allowed? When fear took this country. Fear is taking this country, when fear rules people react they do not act they react to the fear they face every day upon waking.

Fear doesn't overcome it stifles. When you wake everyday it should be a new day with new challenges with new opportunity. Fear stops opportunity. This election to put this president in is the key and the cause to it. Fear elected him now fear rules the majority. Or does it? We still have a chance to speak our minds as this shutdown is a pause from all that runs us. The government has taken us over in fear and fear is the enemy. Fear in a healthy way is always good but this is not healthy and never was. Fear let one president run us in the cave and the next put us under it. Now we have to come out and take our heads out of the sand and stop saying he knows what is best for us let him do it when we run things we are a democracy NOT a monarchy  The reason I say it"s this election is because we run our country and now we have let it go to fear and we have let reason go for fear of this or that or the other thing. Fear is not a way to run a country or a business or a house. Fear is a protective thing to keep men and creatures from harm. There is no harm that we can not face and overcome. Fear is meant to be one of many emotions in our responses it is not something to live in and stay in because if you are afraid as a rule in everything you will do nothing. Fear did not elect our president in the first election it elected him in the second. To keep us from moving on from him and trying a new thing. In his first four years many promises were made including to remove wire tapping from the executive orders and nothing was done. Nothing is being done now as the shutdown moves forward the media pimps us all into thinking we are run by a government instead of we should be running it. America is a business and our CEO needs to go and we are the shareholders and we are NOT making profits. We are in a spending hole of  ridiculously high amounts and as the house votes in spending they are going carefully about it
while we have a CEO who is drunk with power and refusing to move. It's up to you America it is all in your hands.
 Now remember no one is protecting you by listening in on your phone calls and emails. No one is protecting you by making every citizen have health care. Are people refused care? yes they are even with money they are refused why? Insurance companies. Insurance companies are another topic for another day but they are part of the problem not part of the solution.
"Big government" Who runs that government? you do and now they are making the average citizen pay for healthcare they may not even use ever in their lifetime. Why? because of fear and the premiums are going to skyrocket once they get you in there. This should be the fear but it isn't because for some reason someone has told the majority to trust insurance companies. This makes me laugh having worked for an insurance company. I can tell you for certain. They do not care about you. In fact you are nothing but more money to them. You are nothing but a profit margin, but wait,  didn't we face this with telephone companies? and also electricity? This is the biggest monopoly ever. But wait, they care about you. Isn't care in the title of this law? My my deceptions loom large over a sleeping nation who trusts in government and fears its own people. The beginning of the constitution is, "We The People" and until we get it in our heads again that we run this and stop letting greedy little men run our company into the ground we won't be the land of the free the home of the brave any more.
This is you America its all in YOUR hands as we pause for this non negotiating tyrannical shutdown its your baby your ball and your life. No side business now because that extra money goes down the black hole of the government's debt. Time to pull in the reigns. pull up the anchor and set sail into the future by taking fear off of the helm of our ship. Time to sail into a bright sunset instead of a black cloud. Time to get these law breaking tyrants out of power and get us back to making laws that matter and change things to give freedom instead of taking it. Time to lay hold on the future with brave eyes and hands and hearts. Dear America, its time for change.

Waking Up

As I sit watching Cable last night which is a new experience for me in years. I have not bothered with it because I love the interactive format of the computer. If I don't like it I turn it off. I notice that our society has slipped into the housewife mentality. Now don't get me wrong because I was a housewife for years and raised two beautiful kids. It was my main job in life.  I did however as all housewives do fall into the drama of TV.  Soap Operas back in this time were at an all time high as people couldn't wait to see what happened to Luke and Laura on General Hospital. The bad thing is we get into these soap operas now and call them "reality."

Folks the Kardashians have never had a reality they lived in luxury they have not had to worry if the bills were paid or if they were going to have enough money to fix the car or groceries in the cabinet. This is not reality if you had reality shows showing us real reality no one would watch. Now we have the government speaking to this same mentality on a large scale. Here we are all worried Housewives "will the bills get paid" and "who will pay them" and I say "People snap out."  We have worked and put into the coffers for years, so much so, that this should be our retirement and at the last minute a double talking Wall Street bandit has met at the door and said "I have the healthcare plan for you."
Really? Who in their right mind decided that the IRS who already breaks laws by collecting on taxes that do not belong to them. The IRS  has harassed the public at large for years. Now we want them running our children's healthcare and our healthcare as we age? Wow.

Amazing how most of Hollywood voted for this guy you know why? Most of Hollywood has lived on entitlement and each job has been starvation to feast and the roller coaster moves on. You can always see it in the tabloids. Another flash in the pan star is selling a ten million dollar home they can't afford anymore because they thought "Oh I hit the big time."  This is who voted this administration into office with their roaring applause.  Obama hit T.V.  so much and not in political ads but in person on shows like "The View." Can you see my point?

An angry husband says "It's my way or the highway" when did we become like this?  We employ this guy but he has spies watching us?  This guy has used everything to his advantage, including the race card. Which is hardly a way to win a nation over. Most white people are scared of even thinking racially biased thoughts. Generation X did not buy into the bullcrap our parents might have. Racism exists alright but its reversed. So that noise doesn't even fly nor did the stupid set ups they expected us to believe people were doing against him. This administration has shut us out of the house we paid for and said we were not giving enough money to go through on tour? See anything strange?
Yes my friends it's a bad marriage and we have to get out now so what's the answer? Well I didn't want this marriage and all those who did deserve the blame if there is any to blame. Looking at cable I am frightened by the amount of people watching shows that have absolutely nothing to do with anything positive or reaffirming or learning.  An informed mind is an alert mind. We need to be alert and listening to the double talk to see who is speaking it. This is our wake up call before our society hits the toilet and the president says "flush."

Let's go back to the race card for a second shall we? A mentally ill woman hits the capitol building with a baby in the car is she called irresponsible? Is she slammed in the press? hell no. Why? when Adam Lanzas mother was dealing with mental illness for his whole life she was slammed for having protection in her home and bearing arms. But this lady who uses her car as a weapon with her own child in the car was given the excuse of depression and mental illness in such a way I almost felt sorry for her. See the light yet?  The press speaks to a housewife mentality and I for one do not like the condescending way the government is speaking down to the public at large. I say wake up! We employ these people and why are they getting back pay when we wouldn't for missed days? Most jobs don't pay jack  if you miss work. You earn your hard earned pay but these guys get a week off and paid to boot.

No one out there is actually creating their lives now they live according to what cable says what the news says and what politically correct society says. It is a frightening thing and these people do not call themselves patriots they say throw out the agreement we have to run the government. Of course! why? because then the government runs us.  The reality however is we run the government. Without your tax dollars it doesn't run period. It's time to run this like a business instead of letting our greedy little employees run us. Newsflash, a housewife runs the house and so do we. But we aren't even allowed into the house we pay for now.  Refinance your mortgages because we want part of that too we want all your money and all the control and we run this. No Americans run this and its time to tighten the strings of this purse and get going on reform and get your words heard and say things that matter. I say NO back pay if you did not earn it. Police are out of control as it is. We do not need to pay them if they did not protect us! Especially on a federal level. Petition your Reps do the right thing and get going on your free speech because a mute leader is not a leader at all and that is what we are as a nation "We The People."

Coming Out Of The Darkness

One day we as a country will look back on this period and realize how much we had been had during all this. All the media hype all the lies and all the coverup going on daily on a large scale. This country is about the people and has been from the beginning. We started out colonists and now we are fighting again against the tyrannical rule of a monarchy. How is this possible?

The people cried out for a king to save them once again. The people looked to the left and here we are. Fear brought this all about, the fears of a nation swimming in the drama-trauma press. People have no common sense now. It's amazing you see them asking for help just to maintain in this society of sadness and depression.  It's been going on for years and now as our youth screams out in ways we never thought of. They are given everything their heart desires but yet they are not happy, not content. Why is this possible?

Our social media outlets are full of pics of food and outfits and things. People saying how they have found the happiness they looked for only to be in a dark tunnel the very same day if something hits that they can not comprehend. Kids are not taught to look up now they are taught to look down to the ground and hide their heads in meds. We send them to the psych and expect them to come out feasible and unharmed by the backlash of depression in the air.  Why is their so much anxiety?

People have hiding places they hide in alcohol they hide in sex they hide in all sorts of ways to cope.Yet if someone says I am tired of this I want change they are called  mental. Change is needed we need to get our kids out,we need to get change going, real change not some lie we are handed by a politician.  Our youth feels the sadness that they won't have a world to run because these generations have run it into the ground.  Green will not fix what we have done it will only help for a moment.

The Nuclear age has killed our hope we have nothing to look forward to as a world because of cancer, ozone layer etc. Technology can't keep up with the destruction. Life is nothing to live for  real change begins in the home. Look forward despite not being able to see light.

Turn off the television make it a nothing in your life, create don't destroy your neighbor, who says we won't need them? Create in your life make it this way make it yours don't go with the sheeple mentality. Dream and move your mountains. Move past people who tear you down. Move past people who tear others down. Don't be a part of it, be different.  Help people if you can, don't let them drag on your life there are those who would seek to destroy by doing this keep a boundary to them.

Be a constant for your kids and be there. Don't expect them to raise themselves its a bad world and there is no guarantee for them or you. Be in your own life, don't abandon your dreams despite how it looks keep going forward fight the negatives and be the positive. It starts every morning change your life by NOT turning on the morning news. These outlets get way too much attention and we forget what's important. You and your family that is what is important. Start small and watch it grow large.
Start coming out of the darkness.
