NOT LETTING GO OF IT
Re: George H. Wittman’s Obama Couldn’t Be Cleared :
I have been saying this since William Ayers came to light.
I have been through this process twice in the United States Air Force. I received a TOP SECRET on a Background Investigation (BI) and later an Extended Background Investigation (EBI). These take time and even back then were quite expensive to do.
Some I have told this to dismiss this as not important. I think this is most critical.
I think the next president should as a minimum be able to meet or
exceed the same high standard that I did and can still do.
Senator Obama FAILS that test.

A man of faith in a godless age is hitting Americans where it hurts.
Mr. and Mrs. American Spectator Reader, let P.J. O’Rourke talk sense to your kids.
In Britain, defending your property can get you life.
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.
It won’t take long for conservatives to scratch this presidential wannabe off their 2008 scorecard.
The American Christmas, like the songs that celebrate it, makes room for everybody under the rainbow. Is that why so many people seem to be hostile to it?
Was the President done in by the economy, or by the politics of the economy?

Great comments (as usual) from Ira, Christopher, Melvin and Jay especially. And some other thoughts, from a variety of sources, possibly worthy of some consideration?
The US House of Representatives was bogged down in dealing with leftist hate crimes legislation in 2009. The irony of it all: Congressman Rooney offered an amendment to include veterans as a protected class in hate crimes legislation, but the Democrats voted down the amendment. Democrats did, however, extend hate crimes protection to pedophiles. Recalling the “peace” zealots who often were seen spitting on military types, some of us are awaiting a defense of that argument/distinction, if, indeed, one exists…
Read somewhere that the Liberal Left's adherents are not interested in reason or truth. These neo-Marxists fight instead with an almost “religious” fervor that reflects blind faith in socialism -- and what they are after is nothing less than Total Power to implement their view. They are not the slightest bit interested in facts or logic, and dismiss any counterargument with scorn. No, they’re so busy implementing their own dogmatic style of Inquisition, or the Salem Witch Trials, and refuse to consider any new ideas, thoughts, or real world results. Facts rarely matter to them. The very visible Hate (of Bush/Chaney/virtually anyone who disagrees with their agenda; and often the Hate transcends an agenda – it’s secondary, if they know it at all) illustrates a number of very unhappy people, incapable of enjoying ‘most anything.
Our major problem, however, is that they want to impose their policies nationwide. They want everyone to live by their rules. The definition of that is Socialist Fascism. They may dislike that term, but it’s accurate; look it up in your Funk & Wagnell…
Yup. Something is deeply wrong with Americans who oppose a former president of the United States more strongly than they oppose the enemies of the United States.

Re: Mr. Ira Kessel's remarks above: Thanks for the good points you raise. I would expand on one, however -- a true Christian must believe not only that Jesus died for man's sins and is the only way to God, but also that He IS God. He made this clear in John 14:1, 7, 9 and 11; John 8:58; John 10:30-33 and other verses. Jesus' Jewish opponents understood that He was claiming deity for Himself, as recorded in John 5:17-18. His resurrection proved that He, and they, were right about it.

KyMouse, SLG and any who enjoy my posts,
Thank you for your kind responses.

This is silly. Zen meditation is not a religion but a meditation technique... one that thousands of Christians embrace because the Christian churches have all but abandoned any attempt to teach, much less to cultivate and encourage and celebrate, contemplative or mental prayer. When the churches once again embrace the mystical traditions that lie at the very heart of Christianity, spirit-starved Christians will no longer have to resort to Zen, TM or any other Asian spiritual practice that feeds their souls.
