OBAMA AND CONGRESS DECLARE WAR ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!

March 22, 2010

Yesterday, Barack Obama announced a "historical event." One hundred nineteen Democrats voted to openly violate the will of the American people.  Nancy Pelosi wanted the health care bill passed so she could see what was in it. She will soon find out!

GRAVITY AND THE LAW OF DEATH

March 26, 2010

The Path of Least Resistance

Small children get whatever they want simply by acting cute, begging or throwing a tantrum. When kids go to school, they soon learn to cheat. Before they graduate from High School, they have already had sex and taken drugs. They listen to music that that blasts their ear drums and play video games to get their adrenalin flowing. Their heroes are people who have gotten rich or famous with the least amount of effort, through immoral acts, or by criminal, unethical and non-productive means.

Following graduation, the same philosophy continues to permeate people's lives. They want to do the least amount of work for the best pay. Relationships are easy come and easy go. Life is all about entertainment, enjoyment, and having things. It is evidenced in shopping habits - looking for sales, bargains and freebies. Advertising executives feed these cravings with slogans like, "No interest until...," "Everyone does it," "Everyone has one!"

Just go with the flow; jump on the bandwagon; follow the path of least resistance!

Because the end is so all-important, the means used to achieve those ends are not. Greed is no longer evil; trickery, sneakiness and dishonesty can be beneficial in achieving the desired ends. Pay to play and notes for votes are the name of the game in politics. The general populace has caught on. People vote for the one who promises them the most, and then feel entitled for handouts.

Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, suggested a "deem and pass" solution to get her way with the health-care bill. President Barack Obama told Congress, "I don't care how you do it, just do it!" On TV, he said emphatically, "I don’t spend a lot of time worrying about what the procedural rules are in the House or Senate.”

After the bill passed, Vice President Joe Biden celebrated with the kind of vulgarity that has become commonplace in Democratic circles these days. It shouldn't really surprise anyone, however. Why should we expect decent language from people who are responsible for blatant lies, want taxpayers to pay for the slaughter of infants and cater to the wishes of homosexuals who go around bragging about their sexual preferences?

The final stage of this godless and deadly philosophy is entitlement. The old name for entitlement was socialism or communism.

Gravity, our Enemy

There are many natural laws, but the first law that every human being, animal, bird, sea creature or plant gets acquainted with, is probably gravity.

From the moment of conception, a person begins his or her life-long struggle with gravity. Shortly before birth, a baby "drops" in the mother's womb and is soon downing nourishment and filling diapers. Fortunately, babies are born small and don't have far to fall when learning to walk.

All life strives constantly against gravity, pushing upward, seeking air, sun and growth. Man has always wanted to defy gravity and fly. Gravity will assist you in flying - just jump off a tall building! But you will need other resources to land safely, or gravity will claim another victim!

All living organisms eventually succumb to the law of gravity. It may take thousands of years, as with the Sequoia and Joshua trees, but gravity always wins. The word "grave" comes from gravity. Gravity is the law of death, but only if we yield to its will.

Gravity, our Friend

Astronauts withstand extreme gravitational forces measured in "G"s to escape the law of gravity. And when they arrive in outer space, they discover that it difficult to function and survive without gravity. We can not only overcome gravity but also derive great benefit from gravity by putting it to productive use.

Gravity works for us. Farmers sow seed and Rain falls on it to make it grow. When we drop something, we can usually find it again, but what if it went up instead of down?

Life is learning to coexist with gravity, overcome gravity and use it and other natural laws for productive purposes. We call this work or exercise. Gravity is a primary player in the workplace and in sports. Our struggle with gravity is what keeps us alive and healthy and if we stop struggling, we are following the path of least resistance. It is the way of decay and death.

Large ships are made of steel and other materials that don't float. Add to this, the weight of atmospheric pressure (14.7 pounds per square inch) that presses down on a vessel and one would expect the ship to sink. As improbable as it sounds, it is the forces of gravity and atmospheric pressure which keep the ship afloat! The hull is placed under tremendous pressure that could easily be relieved by drilling a hole in the bottom of the ship, but then the vessel would follow the path of least resistance and sink to the bottom of the sea.

I like to sail and find it fascinating that sailors can use gravity, wind and waves to move a boat forward, even against contrary elements. Using a rudder, sails, keel, knowledge and skills, the sailor puts natural laws to work and guides the boat safely into the harbor.

Throughout history, many have followed the path of least resistance and died. The sum total of their life's worth can be read on their tombstones. It is the minus symbol between the date of birth and date of death.

Great men and women, however, attempt to harness nature for productive purposes. Sailing, windmills, waterwheels and even solar power have been used for centuries. These people are industrious, creative and dare to swim against the current of popular opinion. They have displayed great character and discipline in the face of extreme difficulty. They were honest, committed, dependable and credible. It has always been men and women of faith, integrity, ethics and high moral standards who made the world a better place to live. You don't need to read their tombstones to discover their worth. Their inventions and accomplishments can be seen everywhere in the world around us.

In times of natural and man-made catastrophes, great men and women have stood out for their heroic and selfless acts. Those who seek the path of least resistance are the ones who pillage shops and take advantage of hapless victims.

Our nation is experiencing difficult times. Unemployment is high and many are losing their homes and their life's savings. We may see some great men and women emerge from these catastrophic conditions, but the pillagers and looters are already busy and clearly recognizable.
