♥Life is funny how you leave something because the spark lights the ball and the ball is rolling down the hill, with more kindling adding fire to the ball. Pride gets in the way and in a two or three years you wake up and find yourself in a position and place that is uncomfortable, and you long for that thing that you left. Don’t listen to your friends as they can be the kindling that makes the fire bigger. 

Listen to yourself. Put aside the hurt and your pride. Pride is a hindrance to many things in our life.                                                                           

That person knows how you work, your faults, your gifts, talents and your moods. Your focus has to be on the other person and not yourself. 

The relationship can be repaired if you want if bad enough. Humble yourself when you need to. Listen and understand what that person is saying to you. Don’t make up scenarios that are not true. If you do not understand what they are telling you, ask again to explain it in another way. You have to talk to each other; you cannot be loud and demanding or be quiet and permissive. Non communication or miscommunication is deadly to any relationship. Actions are much more powerful than words.

 It may take some time for that person to come around. Be patient, it is worth it.  You can have a second chance, so go out and get it.♥

Suck it up Crybaby

  As President Reagan so eloquently said: “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.” 

 This sentiment typifies the precious nature of instructing our young and forms the basis of my utter contempt for the very idea of public education prior to adulthood.

At the heart of education is indoctrination.  Now, this is not inherently a negative thing.  Rather, it is a simple recognition of reality.  The propriety of that indoctrination is wholly informed by who is doing the indoctrinating.  When a parent does it, it is almost universally for the moral betterment of their child.  Even when the ideas the parent are trying to inculcate in their offspring are dubious, the intent is for their good.  Government, however, has no such beneficent moral structure in mind.  Government is an amorphous and amoral entity whose inclination, as history has taught, is to increase its size and employ policies toward that end.  In terms of education, that means instituting curriculums that, instead of providing knowledge so an individual may be self-reliant, subjugates the mind by denouncing individual achievement and notions of objective truth.   Even ex-KGB officials now readily confirm that their infiltration and manipulation of education was a key strategy in their desired conquest of the West. The KGB and the brain washing of the West    UTube

In practical application, I believe there should be virtually no public schooling of the young.  That responsibility falls squarely on the shoulders of the parents to either take care of directly through home schooling or through the market place via private schools.  The latter would instill competition among educators where many different facilities offering a variety of educational methods would vie for the parents’ dollars.  Only those children who’s education has been virtually completely abdicated by their parents should be placed in a publicly run infrastructure.

Commiserate to this must be, of course, must be a new understanding of how schools are funded.  If the vast majorities are to be educated privately, the right of parents to keep their money to pay for this must be recognized.  I am not advocating for school vouchers, though that is a huge step in the right direction.  Rather, the money should not leave their hands in the first instance.  All vouchers would do is create unnecessary bureaucratic overhead and waste money.  The only government involvement should be to insure that children are indeed receiving some type of education and are acquiring skills in reading, math and science due to the inherent national security interests that the next generation be well versed in those subjects.  The only people taxed for primary education are those parents whose children, through their dereliction, must be placed in public schools.  The freeing of capitol would remove the shackles from around the feet of loving parents and provide for an engine of ingenuity and societal advancement unseen in human history.

Calhoun’s Ghost

Do you find yourself shaking your head as you hear news anchors and pundits make vicious jabs about Sarah Palin? This woman has been very successful in career and family.  She started her political life as a mayor of a small town in Alaska and went on to defeat an incumbent Republican Governor of the same state running against the establishment. John McCain picked her as his running mate and she was the bright spot in his failed run for President.

Susan B. Anthony

“I know nothing but woman and her disfranchised.”

Sarah Palin’s family consist of her husband Todd and four children, the youngest being Trig who has Down syndrome. Sarah and her husband new that Trig had Down syndrome and went thought with the birth,   this infuriates some on the left as it goes against their view of children as commodities to keep or toss away at a whim. 

Recently Sarah spoke at the first Tea party convention and awed the audience with her common sense approach to what is the role of Government.  She is going against the current administrations theory that the Government should control all aspects of your life. She spoke from notes on the podium and not a teleprompter.  After her speech she was interviewed and had crib notes on her hand on three subjects.

The CSNBC crew and the ladies from the T V show the View went nuts over this as if only a moron would do this.  Joy Behar and Eve Ensler recently questioned her intelligence.  Just listen to Joy and Eve talk and you get the point. The President had to use a teleprompter last week to talk to a group of 20 children in their classroom.  Sarah so threatens the President that Obama’s press secretary had to make fun of her at his latest press conference and had crib notes written on his hand.  Of all people to make fun of someone, Robert Gibbs has made a fool of himself on a continual basis. Just listen to his press conferences.

Where are the woman’s groups to defend the attacks on this woman as David Letterman is obsessed with defiling her with his mean spirited jokes.  David Letterman should be at odds with woman groups as he was sleeping with his subordinates whom will soon be in the news as the trail of his alleged black mailer will be exposed. I think Letterman has a problem with woman that he can’t control or dominate.

 The silence of the NOW group exposes them for who they aren’t. They have their own selfish agenda and it is not defending women.

The attacks on Sarah Palin are an attack on all you decent upstanding women in this country, who love God, country and family.

You can ask people what they don’t like about Governor Palin.  They do not have an answer or it is a staple response they heard from one of her critics.  Her critics say she does not have enough experience?  All her experience has been  on the executive level.

Sarah Palin was in charge of the Alaska National Guard; she was the mayor of  Wasilla Alaska and last was the Governor of the energy rich state of Alaska.  She excelled all three positions.  President  Obama has no experience at running anything short of his  teleprompter messages and we can see were that has lead this country.

They are attacking your common sense, your right to have a husband and children.  Your right as a woman to be outspoken, intelligent and beautiful.  You’re right to hold a high position in politics.

Please people, you must come to terms that this is not just about Sarah Palin, it is an attack on the values and foundations that this country was built on.  Attacking Sarah Palin is tearing down what this country stands for, Freedom for a woman to work hard and be successful, your faithful marriage, to love and cherish your children even if they are not perfect, as none of us are and to have inner strength to persevere through all the malice things the malcontents throw at you.            

Please if have not heard Sarah Palin’s message put away the negativity of the malcontents and open an ear and listen as it is a positive one of hope , faith and Love.
