Whooaa-bama...

How very professional... Sure does make the U.S look snazzy, right? *sarcasm

National Day of Prayer

So I hear news that President Obama canceled prayer day. I myself have not looked into this, so I don't know the specifics--but I do know this. The absence of a National Prayer Day doesn't mean we can't still pray.

As a matter of fact, this shouldn't be of too much alarm, if you think about it.

It shouldn't be a surprise. America has slowly and surely turned Her back on God, after all.

And really, shouldn't we be praying for our Nation regardless of a set date? I realize that a set, National day of prayer would help bring a sense of unity, togetherness, and a day of focus on the Nation. But why can't we pray for our Country everyday?

Just a thought.

Ohhh-bama

Our president has a statue of himself as a boy in Indonesia. Kinda sounds familiar...






The one on the top is Josef Stalin, the one on the bottom is Sadaam Hussein. Hussein, by the way, is also our president's middle name...

State of the Dazzled

I was able to watch part of the State of the Union address last night. I admit, I only understood about a quarter of what exactly was being discussed. The very fact that I don't understand bothers me. I'm not one to take a stand about something without having at least a general to mid-depth understanding of it first.

Unfortunately, that causes me to shirk away sometimes. Everything appears so complicated and just, well, big. But somehow, I'm still drawn. I don't know why, but I am, and I don't plan on letting the fear of not understanding things drag me down.

I suppose it takes time. There's a lot of issues out there, and there's no way I'll be like Coulter, Palin, or Limbaugh overnight. I'll stick with what I know, maybe start local, and keep my heads in the books-er, computer screen.
