Character Assassination Time!
October 6, 2008
Is it that time already? For one, I am glad we’ve finally reached this death knell stage because it’s a reminder that the two year drawn out political campaigning for the office of president of the United States is about over. In fact, we’re now under one month to go. So, let the trash-smash mouth talk begin. And who better to get the ball rolling that Sarah Barracuda? In national politics, you always throw the VP candidate under the bus first. Continue Reading »

The question is NOT will the stock market crash? The question is not will the stock market CORRECT. Hey, all of that stuff has already happened. Have you noticed the Friday closing numbers on the three major indexes? But, neither are we facing a depression style stock market decline of 90%. Enough people will commit suicide with Dow 7,000.

October 3, 2008
Now that the Senate has passed the $700 billion bailout legislation, the House will be forced-shamed into doing teh same thing. Thus we have diverted a DEPRESSION, so they say. And lookie here.

Go figure! Continue Reading »

Financial Meltdown Story
September 30, 2008
As we come to the last trading day of the third quarter, it’s hard to imagine things could get worse- but they can and most probably will. Even if Congress can revive a bailout bill, is there enough money to save the world from a serious recession or mild depression? Obama blames McCain, McCain blames Obama, Democrats blame Republicans, and Republicans blame Pelosi. Alot of good all that crap will do us! Continue Reading »
The House Bailout Bombs!
September 29, 2008
The Dow immediately dropped nearly 600 points. That’s right SIX HUNDRED, not SIX ZERO! The House on Monday defeated a $700 billion emergency rescue package, ignoring urgent pleas from President Bush and bipartisan congressional leaders to quickly bail out the staggering financial industry. Would you beleive that Bush no longer has any credibility and that Nancy Pelosi might not have much either. Continue Reading »
Hurricane Ike SOS
September 28, 2008
Most of the people in Houston have their power back. Hard hit areas in the suburbs and surrounding rural areas where many trees and poles are down are next. And then there’s Galveston Island. What can one say about the destuction and catastrophic hit that it and Bolivar Peninsula took. It’s not power that’s missing on the coast but some 400 people who are not accounted for two weeks later. Continue Reading »
America: From Capitalism To Socialism
September 26, 2008
Everyone is focused on the number $700,000,000,000.00 as what it’s going to take to bail America out of its bankruptcy lifestyle. But does anyone think that will change anything? The philosophy is still SPEND! The lifestyle is still to BORROW. And we’ve done it so long that the only way to keep the house of cards from crumbling is to do away with the capitalistic society we were to the socialistic one we’re denying. Continue Reading »
Seven Hundred Billion Bailout?
September 25, 2008
The president has spoken. Ben Bernanke has been before Congress. Christopher Cox has let the SEC run wild. Paulson doesn’t want to be the man at Treasury when all hell breaks loose. Does anyone really know what’s going on? No way. What everyone wants is for the immediate problem to go away and for those that make millions a year to keep on making them and throwing the debt to our children. Continue Reading »
I Got You Babe!
September 24, 2008
How many remember that 1965 song by Sonny & Cher? Upon recording and releasing the song, it became the duo’s biggest single, their signature song, and a defining recording of the early hippie countercultural movement. In 1965, the single reached the number-one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States for three weeks. I am sure many know that song, but homw many KNOW that deeper meaning- to the concept?

Rebuilding New Orleans & Galveston?
September 24, 2008
How far should government go to protect people from their own insanity, risk-taking, and otherwise self-absorbed desires? After Katrina, the question was how smart is it to rebuild a city that’s under sea level, an empty fish bowl waiting to be filled up. In like fashion, how smart is it to build on ANY barrier island that’s sinking into the sea? Is that a fair question or not? Continue Reading »
The Word Became Flesh!
September 23, 2008
We ARE that word! Yes, you and I, and all of us! The simple 1,2,3 step of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is at play with all of us. Jesus is “the Son” and we are “the sons”. Not to trvialize what could not be; however, what Henry Ford (Son) bring into creation, we the sons (managers, supervisors, and line manufactureres) are recreating. All universal realities (not seen things) must come into a manifested form. Continue Reading »
An Earthen Vessel
September 22, 2008
The fact that we’re called earthen vessels doesn’t carry with it some sort of curse! Why would a benevolent Creator who is said to be LOVE, create that which is flawed or of little value. Enough already of the put down and meritocracy steps to free one of such low status. May we continue the journey of life “until Christ is fully developed in your lives (Gal. 4:19).” Continue Reading »
