Has Extremist stolen the Soul of the Republican Party

According to history, Abraham Lincoln was a Republican and he as well as so many others fought to free the slaves. What happened to this party? The Republican Party used to serve the people and was especially mindful of over-taxation but now they are pushing budgets like the one Paul Ryan has proposed. What happened to this party? The republican party used to stand strong for equality and would compromise but never ever on principals. They would defend their positions and vehemently debate but would never tolerate lies being told on their opponents. What happened to this party? One thing we can be sure of, the information contained in this article and the silence of those who sit by while Mitt Romney lies, avoid filling out the full application for the job he is seeking and refuse to disclose any and all information requested by the voters are not the same caliber of Republican that is spoken about above. Judge for yourself, the article is below; Could 2012 be America's Last Pr

Colorado Movie Theater Gunman has other Plans

Normally I do not consider myself a conspiracy theorist but the actions of the Colorado Movie Theater shooter, Mr. James Holmes does gives me pause.  No one has to try hard to imagine the cowardice it took to attack unarmed citizens as they embarked on a night of entertainment but try, if you can, to follow my thoughts on why he took those actions and why he may have acted as he did after being captured. Now remember, he was not caught as reported, he surrendered and that alone makes me wonder.  Many who feel justified in their actions and are resolved to give their lives to whatever cause, will not surrender unless they know that they will be released or they have other scenarios that they want to see play out.  Mr. Holmes surrendered peacefully and quietly even offering to warn law enforcement about the booby traps left in his apartment.  Either he is extremely weak or there is something else he wanted to see the results of. Given what we know about his background, what if he wan

RON’S POOR MAN’S POT ROAST

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Line roasting pan with aluminum foil large enough to cover all sides and top of meat.   Spoon into the pan your margarine or butter and let melt in the preheating oven.   Once margarine or butter has melted, remove pan from oven and set aside. While margarine or butter is melting, cut up some potatoes to your particular liked size and place them into a large bowl.   Slice up one small onion or half of one large one, making sure to peel it first before cutting and placing it also in the same bowl.   Add in as many baby carrots as you desire to the bowl then pour your melted butter or margarine over the top of them.   Sprinkle in your salt, pepper, paprika, sugar and vanilla flavoring.   Stir and mix well. Wash your chuck roast well to remove any manufactured and packaging residue.   Place your roast into the pan making sure that you left a little bit of melted butter or margarine to line the foil.   Slowly pour the contents of your bowl over the m

Breaking News When Predators and Scammers Attack

With the economy being so very sluggish, you would think that intelligent people would be spending more of their time making all attempts to help instead of hurt but not according to an article written by The Associated Press titled Thousands fall victim to scam disguised as Obama utility bill relief.   The article reports that “as much as President Barack Obama wants your vote, he's not actually offering to pay your monthly bills.   But thousands of Americans have been persuaded otherwise, falling victim to a fast-moving scam that claims to be part of an Obama administration program to help pay utility bills in the midst of a scorching summer.   The scam benefits from being cleverly executed and comes at a time when air conditioners in much of the country are running around the clock to tame record-high temperatures.   Here's how it works: Victims typically receive an automated phone call informing them of the nonexistent utility program that will supposedly pay up to $1,000.

More Bad News for Mitt Romney-Housing Bust is over

And hits just keep coming for Mitt Romney and the Romney Team who seems to have bet on the economy getting so bad that the American voters have no choice but to vote Barack Obama out and him in.   Personally I can’t say that I am sorry that the economy is making a slow but steady comeback despite the major lending institutions sitting on trillions of dollars instead of putting country first.   Despite those in Washington so determined to undermine this administration at all cost even if it means sinking the entire nation to do so.   Despite those who just can’t stand seeing a Black man in the White House unless his title is janitor.   Despite those whose hatred of this man has clouded their better judgment and made them so determined to chase him away from Pennsylvania Avenue that they are willing to accept any kind of lie to make them feel better.   For those of us who truly pay attention, we know that the lagging indicator of any policy and this economy is housing.   We know tha

Class Warfare, Really

For as long as any of us could remember, there has always been a gap between those who fared well and those who didn’t.   Those who have, enjoy the pleasure that comes with being able to buy when and whatever they wish while those who haven’t could only dream of such expenditures.   What began as a spark to ignite those who were good in sports to get better or for those who dreamed of improvements to existing products was the drive to reach that level enjoyed by those who fared well.   With the growing divide and the selfishness and greed of those who have, this is becoming more and more difficult. The poor and the middle class had an avenue to getting up on their feet through homeownership but greed from those who have so much has managed to partially destroy that.   The poor and the middle class had an avenue to getting up on their feet by securing jobs with retirement savings but those who have so much has managed to almost destroy that.   The poor and middle class had an avenu

The Escalation of Addressing Violence against Women gives Rise to Another Issue

Many of us can recall the day when a man was allowed to beat his wife and nothing would ever happen to him.   We are also aware that many Christian men still follow the “a woman’s place in society is to be subject to her husband” philosophy which means so many things the least of which “women should be seen and not heard”.   Some still find themselves struggling with this concept which may explain why so many men feel that it is their place to tell women what she can and can not do with their bodies but to the majority of men, we all know that this is not and should not be the case today.   We know that women carry the bulk of the burden when it comes to the effects and affects of this world.   We know that they have a mind and should have a voice in the decisions made.   We know that they have just as much right to pick and choose their destinies as men do.   We know this and now it’s time for us to not only stand up for them but stand up for ourselves as well because whether we wish

When did Client and Customer Service become Self-Service

Now I know that I can not be the only one asking this question but it appears that I am the only one addressing it.   One has got to wonder when this all changed from a society where those who can, help those you can’t into a world where those in a position to help dwell so deep within their own selves that they refuse to extend and share their knowledge and expertise to anyone or anything unless it can be done for a price.   I cast this light upon our justice system and those entities associated with it whose primary task would be to help control or eliminate desires to cause harm or injury to ourselves or our fellow man. As many of you may already know, my nephew is the victim of this trend.   He is a young 15 year old with a very bright future ahead of him but quite a troubling past behind him.   Back in the past entities and families used to band together in order to help these lost souls find their way.   Each having their place and their assigned tasks.   Families attempted
