Remember November

I realize the damage has been done, but it still makes me feel better to think about sending some of those lifetime liberal moochers home to get a real job.

The Oath Keeper

Call me a "Birther", a crazy, right-wing nut who actually thinks that Barack Obama should have to comply with the law and show proof of his U.S. birth before being allowed to hold the highest position in the land.

Below is a video made by Lt. Col. Terry Lakin, explaining his actions and reasons for refusing deployment until Obama does what Little League baseball players are required to do to play ball: show his birth certificate (the REAL one, the long form, which he has NOT produced).

Before you criticize Lt. Col. Lakin, perhaps you should research his exemplary record. I've heard criticisms such as, "Obama is our President. He should just accept that and obey orders." But the question is:

Are we a nation of law? Or a nation of popular vote? Just because Obama was elected by the people as President, doesn't mean he is above the law. That's the one thing that has seperated America from all other nations in the world: Lex Rex, the Law is King (vs. the King being the Law). We are not a democracy living at the mercy of 50%+1; instead, we are a Constitutional Republic, that provides the safety net of laws to which even our leaders (especially our leaders) are held accountable.

That's why our U.S. soldiers take an enlistment oath to uphold and defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic, and THEN to obey the orders from the President. A soldier who puts his life on the line has every right, and also an obligation, to question whether the President himself is an enemy of the Constitution. The Consitution is the Law; not the President (despite what Hollywood says.

I'm thankful that there are still soldiers who take this oath seriously, and ask you to join me in praying for Lt. Col. Lakin, as he has been charged with 2 counts by the U.S. Army.

And if you're interested in getting the facts about the birth certificate saga, World Net Daily and Joseph Farah have an exhaustive and well-researched archive:

Study Confirms Link Between Autism and Use of Cells From Abortions in Vaccines

Wow, what a frightening and interesting article. The links provided in this article are the original sources for this hypothesis, including the original study conducted by the EPA. This is certainly something I'm going to follow.

Study Confirms Link Between Autism and Use of Cells From Abortions in Vaccines

(Just f.y.i., the 2 vaccinations that contain aborted fetal tissue cell lines are the MMR and the chicken pox vaccine.)

The Global Whining Crisis

As I'm sure you've heard, today is Earth Day.

I celebrated my first Earth Day in the 10th grade. We were shown "Captain Planet and the Planeteers" and read all kinds of doomsday stories about how terrible human beings are. I was in the Science Club, and we actually got to sit out classes to make posters to hang all around the school, "Please Recycle", "Be Kind to Trees", "Don't Waste", etc. I was a born-again Christian then, and I have to admit the whole thing felt weird, but I didn't have the training, intellect, or the information at that time to realize what was REALLY going on. What WAS going on? INDOCTRINATION! While parents- who grew up hunting, fishing, having babies, using paper plates and pesticides- were at work, their children were in government schools being indoctrinated. How else can you explain, in one generation, the change that has taken place? The change from embracing family and children.....to despising children, even killing them in the womb, and elevating polar bears and spotted owls to a level higher than humans?

I've posted before about sustainable development, the localized plans to implement a U.N. program called Agenda 21. For Earth Day, may I suggest that you take time to research Agenda 21, and what it means for your family (especially in light of the soon-coming vote on cap and trade in our legislature). You may not realize it, but you've surely encountered effects of Agenda 21 already. For example, limits on what you can develop or build on your own personal property (minimum acreage requirements, etc.), over-reaching game and fishing regulations, emissions tests, national education standards, just to name a few.

Here's a great website to start your research into Agenda 21:
Freedom Advocates
To sum it up, Agenda 21 (which is based primarily on the Global Warming HOAX) is the U.N.'s way of forcing Americans (and all other nations) to relinquish our national sovereignty, and submit to global government. It's being aggressively implemented in America by the progressives in Congress and our President. It's a sort of watered down communism called Fabian Socialism, where the change from capitalism to socialism is done peacefully, by evolution instead of revolution. No guns, just inflation, taxes, and regulation. Socialism requires an end to private property. Rather than just come and take your property and business with guns, they'll just regulate what you can do with it (Do you really own it if you can't even build on it and develop it as you want????) and tax you out of business. Pretty soon, you won't even be able to afford to poot , and I SO WISH I was joking about that.

So, Happy Earth Day to all the tree huggers! And good luck cooling down that sun (after all, it's only 93 million miles away and 10,ooo degrees F)! And even better luck getting the animals and the human race to stop passing gas! Of course, with a genius like Al Gore as your leader, how could you fail? (I know he invented the internet, but even he will have a hard time inventing anything that's funnier to my boys than passing gas and burping. Wish him luck!)



And just as a side note, Doug Phillips has a great blog post about the radical environmentalism in the movie Avatar:

So cute!

Here's a short clip of our little kittens. It's one of the prettiest litters I've ever seen! 4 beautiful calicoes and 1 marmalade tabby. You can hear Seth in the background, and there at the end, he says, "Well, I have to go harvest!" For all you TapFarm people out there, you know this is serious business! I wonder how many 6 year olds play TapFarm!? :-)

Home Sweet Homeschool

I know President B.O. has plans for my children (and yours!) from cradle to career, but I'm so thankful to have mine at home and still running around in pajamas mid-morning. It just breaks my heart to see a nation of little children who have to kiss their mama's "bye" before breakfast every morning. What precious times and experiences and opportunities are being missed!

Hear that rumbling sound?

No, it's not another earthquake. It's the Founding Fathers rolling over in their graves.

Court Rules National Day of Prayer "Unconstitutional"

The framers of our Constitution, the architects and builders of this great nation, would not even recognize it today.

“Hold on, my friends, to the Constitution and to the Republic for which it stands. Miracles do not cluster and what has happened once in 6,000 years, may not happen again. Hold on to the Constitution, for if the American Constitution should fail, there will be anarchy throughout the world.”

— Daniel Webster (1782-1852) Author, Lawyer and Patriot

Medusa had a good nap!

Help?

KK and Sis have help practicing their duet.

The Manchurian Candidate?

"Surely something must be terribly wrong with a man who seems to be far more concerned with a Jew building a house in Israel than with a Muslim building a nuclear bomb in Iran." ----Columnist Burt Prelutsky

It's scary. We have a president who hates Americans and Jews, and who loves our most violent enemies.

Summer Melody

Summer's new passion is singing. It's so precious to watch her walking around the house with a book in hand just singing her own little melody. She now climbs up to the piano and accompanies herself! Above our piano, I have a picture collage of her first year hanging on the wall. As she is singing, she pauses occasionally to look up and say, "Bubba", "Sis,", and "baby". (Ignore me in the background there at the end helping KK with a math problem. "I told you, you cannot skip steps!" LOL)

My Blahg

Sorry my blog has been so "blah" this week. We changed our school schedules around a little, and I've been like a drill sergeant with the poor kids LOL. The little guys got a few more responsibilities added to their daily routines, and we spread things around a little differently with the big kids. I'm happy to report that we've had an extremely productive week, and even managed a play day with our best friends! I was so worried about adding Bubbie to our schedule this year, but praise God we are right on track. I can feel the negative vibes I get from people when they find out that I homeschool and they skeptically look at the 5 kids I have. (I find that funny when you consider that most public school classrooms have 25-30 kids, but anyway....) I have learned through the years, however, that "school" is easy. The hard part of homeschooling is discipline and time management. It's an ever-evolving process and an act of grace that helps me stay one step ahead of my children! And, most importantly, I can truly say that we have enjoyed this week, fractions and all. Life is so much more pleasant when you aren't living under the tyranny of the urgent, but function under a schedule and routine.

Here are a few shots of what we've been doing this week.

Our cat Dixie had kittens! Summer absolutely loves the "babies".

This is Butterscotch, the one we're going to keep:

Couldn't you just eat that grin up?

Sis took this picture:

My pink lady apple tree is blossoming!

I know this is a terrible shot, but aren't they a handsome group?
