Westboro Baptist Church Daring to Protest STL!

Westboro Baptist Church is at it again! They have attacked my favorite musicians; Kelly Clarkson, Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert. Now they are coming to my local city St. Louis, to picket the World Series and the Cardinals. I’ll admit I could not give a damn about the World Series or the Cardinals. Not a baseball fan. But that’s not the point.
Who can believe that God punished the Boston Red Sox’s for being a baseball team by having the Boston bombings? Or blame the Cardinals for the Joplin tornado’s back in May of 2011? It is sickening to see that these people are trying to spread such hate. How can they be tax exempted and still be recognized as a Baptist Church? Of all the things the government allows this is a hate group. This is the same as a Black Panther organization or a KKK.
I support our right to demonstrate but the signs the accusations, even as far left field as they are, are just sickening!
“Titan perverts”, is how the Westboro’s are describing the STL Cardinals. Among other things. Saying that the red color of the Cardinal’s and the Red Sox’s are fitting for the sins they have caused and the blood they have spilt.
We as a nation cannot allow people like these to taint our families and attempt to fill them with hate. I do believe that as a nation we are not as religious as we should be but we have the right as America to choose our religion. Although, be reminded the nation was built on Christianity. This isn’t the type of religion our forefathers believed in nor is it healthy for a nation who has been grieving for too much too long.
The Westboro Baptist Church and their accusations and how they speak of the soldiers is the same way the nation of veterans were treated while coming home from Vietnam. The treatment of those soldiers was inhumane and wrong. A nation of beliefs that damn near broke a country in two.
We cannot allow a group, even as publicly hated as they are, like the Westboro Baptist Church to disgrace soldiers, artiest, or even players who have done not a damn thing wrong. (Okay. Drinking and adultery effy lines but nothing like this!)
The atrocities that spew from the mouths and protests of the “Baptist Church” are sickening and should not be allowed. As American’s and just humans in general with a third of a brain, we should see that this cult should not have power and do something about it. Show that here in America homeland we do not take to those who disgrace those we love especially those who give their lives to protect us. We cannot let them think that they can abuse and use the tragedies of the tornado’s and the bombings to their advantage and disgrace those who lost their lives in the tragedies.
On Facebook status I have seen about the “Church” have concluded that they can’t charge 20,000 plus Cardinals fans with murder. But another tragedy (yes to some levels it would be a tragedy) is not the answer my friends. Hate does not balance out with hate.
I may not have the solution for what they are doing but there is something that must be done Saint Louis. America in general these people must be stopped. We cannot let them continue with these atrocities!
Rant Ended!
In Jesus name, as a Christian, Amen!

The American Party

In this next election, there’s always one coming up, I would like to see a new party formed. The American Party. A political party that’s not made up of politicians. I want to see a party of Americans for Americans.
I want to see veterans. Real veterans who have sacrificed time with their families, lost friends in battle, those who are missing limbs that they have lost in the name of America. A man or a woman who has spilt blood in the name of America. Better yet a soldier who has spilt blood in the decisions of political power.
I want to see middle class workers in the capitol. I want to see people who have slaved away to make ends meet in the way of living the American dream. People who have paid mortgages on $40,000 home and not had the money to just “pay it off”.
I want to see those students who had pay off student loans at ridiculous prices and interest rates to have just a hope of getting a job in a bad economy. Those who kept second waitressing jobs and worked seven days a week just so they didn’t drown in the debt.
I want to see farmers in the capitol building. Those who work the land, the herds. Those who feed, fuel and clothe the politicians that are there now. Side note: I don’t even know if those people eat, use or wear anything American anymore.
I want to see school teachers in the capitol. People who understand what it is like to deal with the education system first hand. How to educate children and what is good for them and what’s not.
I want to see people in the capitol who care about the same things and values that built America. Things like family, loyalty, and yes God. We chose to free ourselves from a tyrant we called King. Now we have to free ourselves from other’s who think they are kings.
The main problem that is coming round and round again that we can’t break ourselves of is the fact that people cannot govern a body of people that they have nothing in common with. Politicians especially those who are in the highest elected levels of the American government have very little in common with those of us in the middle class level. But guess what? The middle class is the largest class of America.
No matter our religious, sexual, moral, or color differences we all of something in common, we are effected by the decisions of DC. And those decisions are not the best ones for us. The thing that the politicians have figured out is that the laws they make and attempt to enforce upon us do not include them and their families.
They can’t make rules for our health insurance when we foot the bill for their full coverage. They can’t make decisions for our social security, our unemployment, our anything because majority of DC has never been in the average American’s shoes. People cannot make decisions about my personal life if they haven’t been in situations at least similar. They make their living governing us. Lying to us. It doesn’t matter the political stand point you have, it’s way too easy to see that we have to make decisions that affect people on a different level.
I understand that they cannot make decisions that will be perfect for all people. But right now the government is making decisions for the top maybe twenty percent of America and making it try to fit another seventy percent.
America needs leaders that keep their day jobs. Keep their touch with reality and remember what it’s like to be an American dealing with every day American problems and not just running with the elite.
Is it just me who feels this way?

Anarchy & Revaluation

Anarchy. That defines America this week. A place of political confusion of lack of government and political power.
The United States government has shut down. Everyone has their own opinions on it. But the one thing that doesn’t change is the fact that it is something that isn’t good for America. Not from government officials to the poorest of poor. Our soldiers overseas’ are getting IOUs the Department of Agriculture website was taken down due to lack of funds.
The rumor mill can fly quickly surrounding the issue’s at hand. Especially in a day and age of Twitter, Facebook and the like. America’s government shutting down, is just senseless. There is no other practical terminology about it.
America isn’t the nation she once was. The rest of the world see’s that too. See’s that she is a sick and cancerous nation that is struggling. However, it is not a terminal cancer. But it is life altering. It’s something that can be overcame but heart and soul have to be put into it and we have to have a governing body who will treat our fragile nation as just that. Right now our governing body is supposed to be acting like a caring physician who will do everything possible to save their patience’s life. Instead Washington is acting like an abusive, drunken husband. One that claims to love his wife but makes bad decisions, beats her and then sobers up for Sunday morning church telling the congregation that he loves her and will do right by her this time.
History shows that drunken husband will probably beat his wife again. Just as we keep having just enough faith in the current government that they will do right by us.
Right now the America needs a protecting government. The Middle East is still a threat. Syria is quiet stirred up, China is breathing down our necks and that’s just issues from abroad. America cannot afford to be weak at this moment.
With the government shut down it is just showing that we have incapable leaders. If there was to be an attack on America right now would be the ideal time to such. Washington is not functioning making delays in moving military units a sad and scary reality.
I look at Washington and I do see a monkey sitting in a place where real leaders had sat. Obama was at a time a hope for most of America citizens. But then again Hitler was once the idealistic leader for a Post-World War I Germany. Obama makes promises he can’t keep. He courted much of America with a smile and offered things that would make America the new Promised Land once again. He won his office by doing what very few other politicians had done. He made lower class, and lower ethically statured people feel important. In much of the very same way a girl with low self-esteem would fall for a man who could end up in an abusive relationship. For once feeling like she mattered and was important fell for him and married him and when true colors began to show, did not walk away because they are incapable of doing so and don’t want to feel embarrassed by their mistakes and are quite frankly, fearful of what else could happen after that abusive relationship.
Sounds familiar does it not? Obama made an entire group of citizens that did not previously take part in the election of government officials feel important and therefor was able to not only get their vote but get them too vote.
Obama was smart. Obama is smart. There is no denying that. What there is to deny, is his common sense and where his loyalties lie. I don’t believe that Obama’s loyalties lie with America and her people. I haven’t ever believed that.
Being one of the main reasons why the government shut down, is Obama Care. I have the basic insurance I am required by law to have. Automobile insurance and home owners insurance due to my mortgage. I do not have any form of health insurance. Something, I do admit, would be nice to have. I’m a twenty-year-old college student and waitress. Health insurance is not something feasible at this moment. I do plan ahead financially for doctor’s visits and prescription costs though. It would be able to go to the doctor for every slight whim. It’s frivolous I’ll admit but for many people there are many times where having health insurance for all, one that is realistic, would be amazing.
Obama Care is Obama’s attempt to fulfill promises that he made in order to win office both times he ran. It’s a beautiful idea. But so are unicorns and gold at the end of rainbows, fairies, and other fictitious things. That is what the trouble is. So many people heard the idea and thought of how terrific it would be. But they didn’t ask how everything can get from one level to another. And that’s impossible.
America is the land of a million dreams and endless possibilities. But there are something’s that just can’t be done. Like turning back the hands of time, Obama Care is impossible.
For the first in years America has to stand up for what it believes in and for herself. The Patriot movie in the beginning there is a line that Mel Gibson’s character Benjamin Martin says “Why trade one tyrant 3,000 miles away for 3,000 tyrants one mile away.”
When our forefathers freed the thirteen original colonies from the King of England that’s what ended up happening. Our government of elected officials has become in all reality, tyrants. I am not one to propose war. I believe it to be necessary upon occasion and support soldiers always, but, I do not advocate for it. America needs to see that in our government, on every level it seems but, most pressingly the head of our governing body has failed us. It’s time for another revolution. One that shouldn’t cost us blood and lives but one that should in turn be able to free us from such a catch 22. Reform needs to happen in Washington, it has to soon or I feel as much strength and hope I have in such a great nation will not be enough. Washington leaders will not do reform. They will not cut their pay, arrange their own benefits, or erect laws that apply to both us and themselves as a whole nation.
If we, average American citizen, does not take this shut down of the government as a signal as to what it truly is, a failing government, a flat line, then I fear that a sick nation will not survive and that I may be alive to see this nation be buried. That saddens me, because this is the greatest nation on earth still. Nowhere else I would rather live or raise a family.
Anarchy is something that The Sons have popularized. But it’s not something that America needs to follow in suit.
