I made a driving no-no yesterday. I needed to turn around to get back on the previous road. I patiently waited while two cars drove past and then proceeded to make my move. As I was just getting flipped around, a car blared its horn at me. I slammed on my breaks and and waved my hand to signal my apologies. The young girl behind the wheel gave me that all-too-familiar go to you-know-where-look and her mouth opened to reveal some very obvious obscenities. I waved at her again and let her pass. Now, to my own defense, she was not driving down that street when I began my move, but had taken one of those screeching turns onto that road at the last minute, and decided to accelerate at 90 miles an hour. And yet, it became my fault. As I attempted to shrug off my annoyance, and that little lump that forms in the back of your throat as you consider the potential ramifications of such a situation, I hear my 4 year old’s tiny voice ask, “Why was she honking at you?” “I don’t know,” I said, “some people are just very impatient and angry inside.” But, it did get me thinking about why people are so seemingly angry and impatient, particularly in the car. Now referred to as road rage. We’ve all be victims of it and, let’s be honest, have probably laid on our own horns a few times, but my experience on the road is one that has me considering scripture. Matthew 24:12 says ,”Because of the increase in wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.” I think we can all safely say, “The love of most has grown cold,” especially when referring to drivers that often share, or don’t share, the road with us. People leave their houses in the morning, hair-trigger tempers just looking for an opportunity to flare, for a reason to transfer their emotional energy on someone else- perhaps to be released of it, if only for a short time, or perhaps because, “The love of most has grown cold.” Let’s face it, Christian or athiest, liberal or conservative, wickedness has indeed increased. Our viewpoints of what consists as wickedness will most surely differ, but we all are shocked, grieved, and horrified by some of the news realities surrounding us in our culture. I think it’s also safe to say that cynicism has become the order of the day. I’d like to know what reason people would give for this increased wickedness and negativity that surrounds our lives. In a nation that has become increasingly defiant of the powers that be, that has set aside more and more rules, more and more moral absolutes in the name of “pursuing happiness” and “freedom”, we seem to be constructing our very own jail cell. Each affair, each abortion, each shot, each hit, each act of sexual immorality, each child abused, each credit card, each time a prayer is quarantined from the public, each cross that is torn down all represent a bar, and I, along with many others, are starting to feel the claustrophobia of a nation closing itself in. The Bible says in Galatians,”Do not use your freedom to indulge in the sinful nature.” Perhaps, as we seek to engage freedom, we find ourselves held captive by the pain the bondage in our lives creates. If we really can and should act however we will, after all, you only live once, right, then why is it that random acts of kindness, love, and joy are disappearing into the no-holds-barred Abyss? Why is it that this “freedom” everyone thinks is so great comes with such a hefty price tag? Perhaps because freedom is the ability to do what you ought, not the right to do whatever you want. Perhaps true freedom is found only when we establish rules and boundaries and discipline ourselves to live inside them. Discipline? Ourselves? Why would I ever do that? The Bible says that “A person without self-control is like a city with broken down walls.” What good are walls surrounding a city if they are not built up and fortified in order that they may serve to protect those inside? In order that they may establish a boundary line to, in fact, proclaim the city and create a sense of belonging, permanence, and purpose. Crumbling walls represent exhaustion, loneliness, pain and defeat. An established city screams, “Victory!” The Bible also says that those who ignore discipline are “fools…who come to the brink of utter ruin. <They> will die for lack of discipline, led astray by <their> own great folly.” It goes on to say, “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.” To discipline and hold ourselves accountable will be painful initially, but we are promised a HARVEST of rightousness and peace. Peace. Ahhhh. Just typing it is refreshing. And maybe, that kind of peace, is just what this society needs.
Congress To Provide $5 Billion Viagra To A Limp Porn Industry?
January 7, 2009 by mom4truthExcuse the pun. Or don’t excuse it. I don’t care. But are you freaking kidding me? I can’t even say, “How much worse can it get?” because it can’t, I guess unless they actually give it to them. Larry Flynt and Girls Gone Wild CEO Joe Francis are going to muster up the gumption to request a $5 BILLION dollar bailout from you and I. Only you and I don’t get to decide, because we have a VERY liberal congress making this decision. Once on the side of conservativism and anti-socialist policies, Bush’s eleventh-hour move to the socialism side has me afraid that we just might see the day we give money to this filthy, money-sucking, family-wrecking industry. I guess you can tell what I think of this proposal. Fine- this is America, land of the free… to-look-at whatever-you-like and to engage whatever behaviors you do so choose, but I cannot even begin to fathom why taxpayers should have to fund something so taboo and something so contradictory to so many of our morals. Fine- I ‘ll smile and nod as Uncle Sam takes my money to pay for cars that I won’t even drive, and I may even look the other way as they pay for people who buy houses too big for their budget, but this takes the proverbial cake! Socialism for the sake of anything isn’t right, but socialism for sex addicts and dirty old men? Oh, what a wonderful world.
A Liberal’s Dream
November 3, 2008 by mom4truth‘You have to pinch yourself – a Marxist radical who all his
life has been mentored by, sat at the feet of, worshiped with,
befriended, endorsed the philosophy of, funded and been in turn funded,
politically promoted and supported by a nexus comprising black power
anti-white racists, Jew-haters, revolutionary Marxists, unrepentant
former terrorists and Chicago mobsters, is on the verge of becoming
President of the United States. And apparently it’s considered impolite
to say so.’

Obama and Khalidi
October 31, 2008 by mom4truthI watched, jaw-dropped, this week as another Obama association was exposed- this time Khalidi, spokesman for the PLO- that’s the Palestinian Liberation Organization. Not just an association- friends. This man, an absolute anti-Jewish, anti-American, hate-filled person, frequent dinner partner with Obama, a recipient of funds from Obama, and a fundraiser for Obama. Now one must ask himself, what motive would an anti-American, PLO member have in supporting an American candidate? Now imagine if McCain were to have the same connections come to light- he would be ripped to shreds. I don’t care who you’re voting for, but the obvious bias that allows Obama a permanent “get out of jail free” card is stunning. Wake up you guys! You are preparing to elect a man who has shown strong leanings that are anti-Israel, anti-Christian, anti-life, and anti-American. Quick, someone inject these people with a shot of eye-opener! I believe that if we elect this man, we are ensuring an absolute rejection of Israel when the crap hits the fan, not to mention he will surely encourage, possibly require land-for-peace deals. For any of you who appreciate democracy, you can understand the danger this would pose as we would further distance ourselves from our one friend in the middle east and break our promise to support democracy throughout the world. For those of you who believe the Bible, you understand the certain judgment sure to come on this land according to Genesis 12:3. Either way- trouble is brewing. For more information on this subject, I would recommend reading ‘Two Nations Under God’. This will help all understand the importance of supporting Israel.
Follow-Up to McCain Backer Victimized
October 24, 2008 by mom4truthSo, I write this blog last night expressing my concern over the fact the Obama had not reached out to the McCain supporter ”victim” that had been attacked, and I wake up to the same story this morning that everyone else is hearing- she made the whole thing up! Isn’t that wonderful. She certainly isn’t representing those of us who genuinely support McCain and those of us who call ourselves conservatives, but this is a bipartisan issue. It does no one any good for extremists on any side to do such abhorent things. I’m disappointed in her actions, but, to the dismay of many of my lovely commentators, I am not sorry! None of us last night knew this was a lie, and Obama did not contact her when we thought this was factual. So- still he is still a disgrace, right along with the girl who perpetrated this whole ugly ordeal.
By the way, for those of you who continually call me racist because I do not support Obama, I think you might want to look in the mirror. Is it not possible for me to be both black and a McCain supporter? Imagine that.

McCain Backer Victimized
October 24, 2008 by mom4truthJust a short post about the cess pool that is the group supporting Barack Obama. I realize not every Obama supporter would commit this violent attrocity, most are just misguided and, to be blatant, ignorant, but the notice that we do not have McCain supporters carving ‘M’s’ in people’s faces. For those of you who are unaware of the story, a lady was mugged at an ATM, and when the attacker noticed a McCain sticker on the back of her vehicle, he carved a ‘B’ on her face! Now, McCain has already been in contact with this lady and her family, but Obama? Nope. This is proof he has blue blood running through his veins and has no ounce of humanity in him. Why could he not come out and say, “I do not condone this or anyone who would commit such an act. I am not interested in the support of those who are capable of such hate and my prayers are with this girl and her family at this time. Thank you for your commitment to the political arena of our country by serving the McCain campaign and please get better. We will find this criminal and prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law!” Why would Barack condemn these actions when his very best friend is William Ayers, a national terrorist, right? He has no moral code! Just another reason he makes my stomach churn!
