Overwhelmed

I have to apologize to my readers for not being more on the ball. With all that’s going on in the world, I think I’m just overwhelmed. All the “change” promised in November is happening at break-neck speed:

*President Obama had repeatedly made himself an international laughingstock--posing and schmoozing with every kook dictator he can find; rushing to apologize for America’s “wrongs”; allowing thugs like Chavez and Ortega to openly ridicule and “correct” him, without a whimper of defense; insulting or ignoring our faithful British and Israeli allies; failing to meet with Israel’s leaders while rushing to apologize to, and bow before, Muslim dictators; giving away our nation’s security secrets … can it get any worse? (I’m afraid it will). Obama only seems to be concerned with nurturing his overweening pride. Just look at when Ortega, at the Summit of the Americas, ranted on for 50 minutes about America’s “sins” in Latin America. Obama’s only response: I’m glad you didn’t blame ME (yes, he actually said that).

*Domestically, we have a few more economic time bombs waiting to go off that can shatter the economy even more (there’s a reason leftist stooges don’t want you to watch or listen to Glenn Beck, who is the only broadcaster addressing these coming economic shocks); a hate crimes bill, under which I can well be hauled out of the pulpit and arrested for “hate speech,” for saying that homosexuality is sin according to the Bible; a Homeland Security chief who calls conservatives terrorists, while making sure she doesn’t insult Islamo-fascist killers … and all this and more in merely three months of the Age of Obama.

You Christian voters who pulled the lever for Obama in November: was THIS the “competence” you voted for (since you claimed you were voting against George W. Bush’s “incompetence”)?

All this, with the lapdog media cheering Obama on, like some Third World press corps that acts as a mouthpiece for the dictator in power. The LDM cheers on any anti-America protests it can find, while openly, and in a perverted fashion, ridiculing the massive Tea Party protests that sprang up around the nation.

Then we have the debacle in the church world, with Rick Warren apologizing for supporting California’s Proposition 8 (he claims he never supported it, but any visit to YouTube will dispel that statement). No, the great mega-church leader can’t speak up in defense of marriage--but a brave Miss California, Carrie Prejean, had no problem doing so, even with the USA crown on the line (I suspect Pastor Warren will change his mind and back Proposition 8 again, when sales of his Purpose Driven Life materials hit the nickel layer of the earth). Check this link here to see Warren’s cowardice and Prejean’s brave stance.

“This happened for a reason. By having to answer that question in front of a national audience, God was testing my character and faith. I'm glad I stayed true to myself,” Prejean told Fox News after the contest, which she more than likely lost due to her response to the idiot judge's pro-homosexual marriage "question." You go girl!

May you live in interesting times, an ancient Chinese curse says. Indeed. I’ll be discussing how Christians can confront our declining climate in this country and, as Paul said in Philippians 2:15, “be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world …” (ESV)

Bad News, Good News Report

First the bad news, which shouldn’t be too surprising but is not largely reported in the MSM (mainstream media, otherwise known as LDM, or Lap Dog Media): President Obama’s foreign tour and the G-20 conference was an unmitigated disaster for American interests around the world. What else can you expect from bowing to the King of Saudi Arabia (the main propagator of the violent Wahhabi sect of Islam worldwide, including in America--and no, Obama didn’t drop his Tic Tac) and endlessly apologizing for America’s actions? And that was just for starters. Read the depressing assessment in the London Daily Telegraph here, and try not to wince at the second coming of Jimmy Carter, who right now is looking more like Thomas Jefferson compared to the GTOIC (Great Teleprompter Orator in Chief). And the LDM complained about Sarah Palin’s lack of foreign policy experience? Gerald Warner, the Telegraph writer, sums it up in the first line: "President Barack Obama has recently completed the most successful foreign policy tour since Napoleon's retreat from Moscow.” For you worshipful Obama fans, don’t strain your thinking cap too much researching that one.

Now for some REALLY good news from Joel Rosenberg in his April 10 blog entry here, on the masses of Muslims turning to the Lord Jesus as their Savior! Have a very blessed Resurrection Sunday! JESUS IS RISEN!
