Wow. It has been only 10 days since The One has been elected and already, our America is changing faster than maybe ever in its history. You’d better fasten your seatbelts as it looks like it is not coming to a complete and safe stop anytime soon:
“The Education of Young Catherine Vogt.”
“Thought police are now political donation police.”
Requiring national service to “give people a sense of what it means to be an American.“
We can be thankful that on the financial front, at least, some congressmen are starting to figure out that giving Sec. Hank Paulson carte blanche to “fix” our finances as he sees fit was not a good idea. (snort!)
*****************************
In the Meloff family, we just wonder where all of this will lead. We’ve read too much of ancient, medieval, renaissance and current history to believe that anything good will come.
Save Christ, Himself.
Maranatha!

Lets Give Our New President Elect a Chance.
Most people who voted for Obama had no idea who he was or what he was. I guess the media did a good job selling him. McCain, although he is a good man, wasn’t picked by republicans to run. He was picked by Democrat crossover voters in states who allow non party members to vote under any ticket they want. After they did that they went back to their Democrat home. McCain is no conservative. He doesn’t seem to realize that when a republican walks across the aisle to work with Democrats they break your leg. If you reach across the aisle they break your arm. Their idea of bi-partisanship is simple. You give up your principals and do what we want. Coming together to them means that you compromise your ideas and accept theirs.
The biggest danger, even if Republicans regain control of congress in two years, will be all the judicial appointments that will be made in that time. I only hope that they will be unable to stack the supreme court with liberal appointments. FDR had 20 years to stack the court and it took a lifetime to turn it around.
Of course we must not be too cruel to our new president. We should not call him a liar.
We should not call him a liar when he said he wanted to bankrupt the coal industry.
We should not call him a liar when he said utility bills would skyrocket because of the coal industry being regulated and taxed to death.
We should not call him a liar when he said he wanted to redistribute the wealth.
We should not call him a liar when he said he wanted to replace the military with a civillian force.
We should not call him a liar when he said he wanted to meet with Iran without preconditions.
We should not call him a liar when he said he wanted to invade Pakistan.
We should not call Biden a liar when he said that supreme court appointments should be made based more on the nominees philosophical views than on their judicial temperment. Can you say litmus test?
Hold onto your money belt we are in for a five ticket ride.
I could go on and on but I think you get the point.
