Fair Tax - I'm FOR IT!

This just makes too much sense. It's simple and FAIR to all Americans. I'm on board and will support this 100%. To learn more, visit the Fair Tax web-site.

Iraq - A Soldier's Perspective


We all need to thank God for men and women like Doc, fighting for Our Freedom and security.. Don't EVER take our safety and freedom for granted... It IS NOT FREE!


.......If we leave now, it will be a failure for democracy. Iran will contoll Iraq and the end result will be more terrorist attacks on America . The American people don't want soldiers dying over here, but its better than American civilians dying over there. Do NOT forget 9/11. They will do it again. The moment we loosen our grip on the noose, they will do it again. And the only way to root out the evil here is to stop beating around the bush, increase troops and destroy the insurgents once and for all. The Iraqi government cannot do this on their own. The Iraqi security forces are inadequate for this task. We are the only ones who can stop al-Sadr.

Feel free to share this with whomever wants a real soldier's opinion about the war.

In God we Trust

After reviewing acknowledgments of God from all 50 state constitutions, one is faced with the prospect that maybe, just maybe, the ACLU and the out-of-control federal courts are wrong."Those people who will not be governed by God will be ruled by tyrants." - William Penn
GOD BLESS AMERICA !

We Must Win in Iraq or else......

The enemy we are facing is barbaric. If you don't believe me...click here.... Be warned that what you will see is graphic. Nick Berg is an American from Philadelphia, PA... and know that if we lose the war in Iraq, this will be happening more and more. It's hard to stomach watching this happen to a fellow American, but just think about this happening to your brother, sister, husband, son or daughter. It is REAL

Nobody wants war, but we can't be childish, run away and hide our heads thinking that these rabid dogs will leave us alone and they don't want to kill us....they do. We need to crush the militant Islamic movement anywhere, and everywhere we find them.

If you can come up with a better strategy that will protect us from these animals, put it together, detail it out, consider all the consequences and address them. I'm sure the President will listen and respond to a well thought out, mature plan with Action that produces postive results that secure Americans.

If all you want to do is complain and protest without another and better solution to protect Amercans and Kill the enemy.....you're in bed with the enemy and helping them more than America during a time of war.

Be productive with your energy, and intellect. We're at WAR!

The Simple Life....Check this out


Every Friday morning, My Father-in-law, Louie and I meet to read Proverbs and discuss/meditate on the word of God. We have started a series entitled, "The Simple Life" and will post recordings as they are made. This mornings recording was particularly valuable. Our talk focused around Forgiveness and how that is the first step to living a simple, worry free, God's Blessing filled life. Here is the link. Enjoy and be blessed.

Are Illigal immigrants fugitives?
Is harboring an illigal immigrant the same as haboring a fugitive?
Can College administrators that knowingly admit illegal immigrants without reporting them be charged with harboring fugitives...accessories to crimes?

No Drug test....No Money


We need to eliminate ANY distrubution of Federal money to individuals without a "Clean" drug test. Most workers in this country have to take drug tests to be employed, so the same standard needs to be applied to those receiving money for nothing from all of the U.S. Taxpayers.

Minimum Wage - HIKE


Ok, here's an idea. We start a voluntary tax fund, where everyone who clears over $1,000,000 in a year voluntarily pays 20% into the WAR (Working American Reward) Fund. We then sign up companies like Popeye's Chicken, McDonalds, Burger King etc... (typical minimum wage employers) to participate in the distrubution of the money. The WAR fund payments would be a supplement to what the companies are already paying their employees and is distrubuted tax free. It would take a $7.50/hr job and jump it to $10 or $12/hr. The additional money would be used to further stimulate the economy.

With all of the rich Democrats in Hollywood and California etc... we could create a registry of who is participating in the Fund and who is not. We would cross reference the list with which political party they support.

This solution targets bi-partisan objectives by helping the working poor (democratic priority) without un-fairly taxing the people (a republican value)

I'm not trying to Win your Vote

One of the very cool things about our run for President 2008 (and I say this because my wife is just as much a part of this), is that we are here to be a voice for the ignored in this country. I don't want to convince you of anything, but if you believe in Jesus and the Good News, I want to speak for all of us. Not only are the poor ignored, but also, the conservative voice, the truly conservative voice. The voice of those of us wanting to walk the life that Jesus commands us to walk.

It's so evident in the polls regarding our President. When 33% of the people approve of his job performance, I cheer. When the final days come, we'll be lucky if 33% of the people are called by Jesus into eternal salvation. When I get called an, "idiot", we cheer, because we know we're on the right path.

So that's what we're going to do here, speak the Truth, back it up with scripture and let the chips fall where they may. As Christians, we aren't capable of "Saving" or "Winning" anybody..... we can't even save ourselves....only God can do that! We are responsible for sharing the Good News that Jesus is Lord, came down to give us an example to live, died for our sins, got the treatment we deserve so that we would get what He deserves and live the life that He wants from us. It's not a one way street and Jesus demands that we follow his commands, the greatest of which is "love one another", sometimes that means whopping each other on top of the head.

Come back often, comment often and let's grow together in Christ!

Here we go


Well, we're getting our own blog going. I learned about this format through: thenextprez.blogspot.com Where I am answering the candidate questions. I've already been called and "idiot" on the site, so I know I am on the right path.

We'll make this fun, and keep to the message and values that are driving this campaign, which are those of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. If I say anything that violates the Bible, or take a position that is un-deniably Christian, PLEASE call me on it and make it known to me. I am human, simple and will make lots of mistakes, so keep that in mind.

We will see just how far God wants this to go. Buckle up and hang on, this is going to be interesting....and Fun too.

God Bless you always and in all Ways!
