Let us look at the budget.

They keep talking about these cuts that we are going to have.
Can you tell me how we can go from an annual budget of less than a trillion in 1987 to over a 3 trillion dollars in 2012 with a budget
sort fall each year of the past four years of 1.2 trillion if there
is any cuts. A little lesson the way the federal government works on
what is call baseline budgeting. What that means is no matter how
short the money that is being brought into treasury each year even if
it does not pay for everything that is due each year, each department
in the government will get a least a around a 4 percent of an
increase. Now in good years with more money being taken in to the
treasury each department could get less say a 8% percentage increase
in their budget. Then the very next year not as much money is taken
in to the treasury, then that year that department only gets a 4
percent increase, still an increase just not as much as the year
before. These clowns tell us they cut that budget to that department
4 percent. Please someone tell me just how the hell that is a cut.
The budget still grows each and every year, where is the cut. In a
post name Baseline Budget I posted an article that explain baseline
budget and where it came from.

Look how many times they
tell us anymore that if we do not do this or that the whole world
will collapse. Then out of thin air we are saved by something they do
or say. George Bush said I had to abandon my free market principles
to save the free market. Listen to that statement is that not the
dumbest thing we heard but we went right along with it in the
Republican party. Oh my they save us and took more money,dump in to
special interest groups and we though they were just the best they
saved us, along putting money putting our money in their cronies
pockets. Now before you say I didn’t agree with it, well what the
hell did you do to stop it. Oh I know we elected Obama, that will
show them. This president says if we don’t pass the 800 billion
stimulus package then the whole world will fall into ruin.
Unemployment will jump to 15 to 20 percent . It was for green jobs,
roads, shovels ready jobs, it was going to save us again. Well what
happen to all the jobs. Oh I know you do not create jobs dishing out
the money to special interest groups. They pass health care, tax
increases, and so many other thing because of they keep saying we
have too. Once these things are enacted we find out it is just more
money going to certain groups. What do we do, we reelected the same
people to keep right on screwing us. Boy we showed them didn’t we. I
would think it is time to put a very tight hold on the jokers we have
in Washington to get us away from this crap. If they do not want to end
base line budgeting then it is time to swept the place clean and start with
people that believe in God and the constitution.

Remember trust God not the government.

Base line budgeting from Wikipeda

Baseline budgeting is an accounting method the United States Federal Government uses to develop a budget for future years.  Baseline budgeting uses current spending levels as the “baseline” for establishing future funding requirements  and assumes future budgets will equal the current budget times the inflation rate times the population growth rate.

[1] Twice a year—generally in January and August—CBO prepares baseline projections of federal revenues, outlays, and the surplus or deficit. Those projections are designed to show what would happen if current budgetary policies  were continued as is—that is, they serve as a benchmark for assessing possible changes in policy. They are not forecasts of actual budget outcomes, since the Congress will undoubtedly enact legislation  that will change revenues and outlays. Similarly, they are not intended to represent the appropriate  or desirable levels of federal taxes and spending.[2] The genesis of baseline budget projections can be found in the Congressional Budget Act of 1974.

That act required the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to prepare
projections of federal spending for the upcoming fiscal year based on a continuation of the existing level of governmental services.  It also required the newly established Congressional Budget Office to prepare five-year projections of budget authority, outlays, revenues, and the surplus or deficit. OMB published its initial  current-services budget projections in November 1974, and CBO’s five-year projections first appeared  in January 1976. Today’s baseline budget projections are very much like those prepared more than  two decades ago, although they now span 10 years instead of five.
The Budget Act was silent on whether to adjust estimates of discretionary appropriations for anticipated changes in inflation. Until 1980, OMB’s projections excluded inflation adjustments for discretionary programs. CBO’s projections, however, assumed that
appropriations would keep pace with inflation, although CBO has also published projections without these so-called discretionary inflation adjustments. CBO’s budget projections took on added importance in 1980 and 1981, when they served as the baseline
for computing spending reductions to be achieved in the budget reconciliation process. The reconciliation instructions contained in the fiscal year 1982 budget resolution
(the so-called Gramm-Latta budget) required House and Senate committees
to reduce outlays  by a total of $36 billion below baseline levels, but each
committee could determine how those savings were to be achieved. The CBO baseline has been used in every year since 1981 for developing budget resolutions and measuring compliance with reconciliation instructions.
The Deficit Control Act of 1985 provided the first legal definition of baseline.
For the most part, the act defined the baseline in conformity with
previous usage. If appropriations had not been enacted for the upcoming fiscal year,
the baseline was to assume the previous year’s level without any adjustment for inflation.
In 1987, however, the Congress amended the definition of the baseline so that discretionary appropriations would be adjusted to keep pace with inflation. Other technical changes, annual increase of now approximately 3% plus inflation, to the definition of the baseline were enacted in 1990, 1993, and 1997.
Presently, the [automatic annual] Baseline Budgeting increase is about 7%. Baseline budget projections increasingly became the subject of political debate and controversy during the late 1980s and early 1990s, and more recently during the 2011 debt
limit debate. Some critics contend that baseline projections create a bias in favor of spending by assuming that federal spending keeps pace with inflation and other factors driving the growth of entitlement programs. Changes that merely slow the growth of federal spending programs have often been described as cuts in spending, when in reality they are actually reductions in the rate of spending growth.
There have been attempts to eliminate the baseline budget concept and
replace it with zero based budgeting, which is the opposite of baseline budgeting. Zero based budgeting requires that all spending must be re-justified  each year or it will be eliminated from the budget regardless of previous spending levels.
According to the Government Accountability Office, a Baseline is as
follows: Baseline “An estimate of spending, revenue, the deficit or surplus, and the
public debt expected during a fiscal year under current laws and current policy. The baseline is a benchmark for measuring the budgetary effects of proposed changes in revenues and spending. It assumes that receipts and mandatory spending will continue or expire in the future as required by law and that the future funding for discretionary programs will equal the most recently enacted appropriation, adjusted for inflation. Under
the Budget Enforcement Act (BEA), to expire at the end of fiscal year 2006, the baseline is defined as the projection of current-year levels of new budget authority, outlays, revenues, and the surplus or deficit into the budget year and out-years based on laws enacted through the applicable date.

CBO Baseline Projected levels of governmental receipts (revenues), budget authority,
and outlays for the budget year and subsequent fiscal years, which is now approximately 6% increase pr fiscal-year, assuming generally that current policies remain the same, except as directed by law. The baseline is described in the Congressional Budget Office’s
(CBO) annual report for the House and Senate Budget Committees, The Budget and Economic Outlook, which is published in January. The baseline, by law, includes projections for 5 years, but at the request of the Budget Committees, CBO has provided such projections for 10 years. In most years the CBO baseline is revised in conjunction with CBO’s analysis of the President’s budget, which is usually issued in March, and again during the summer.
The “March” baseline is the benchmark for measuring  the budgetary effects of proposed legislation under consideration by Congress.”

Why is it so easy for us to believe in conspiracy, lies and so on? Even if we check out the lie or conspiracy we still have a hard time not believing it. Why is
that? We listen to so called experts and they tell us what they think. These experts could be a Hollywood star that was in a movie
and all of sudden they are experts. Musicians, they sell some records, now they become experts in something. We almost always listen to famous people or someone on a blog, or a politician, or even your faith leaders.

We get some star standing and saying we need to do something about global warning. What are they now an expert because they played one in a movie and now we hang on their every word? Why? We get another so called actor that now says this president is the boss and him and his wife are like our parents and we should listen to them. And what do we do we read his garbage and just think this person is just the best for giving to the peasants some brilliant knowledge, and idiots in the media put it up for us to read. Then we run right out and go to his next movie. Why? We listen to faith leaders and preachers tell us that abortion and homosexuality is a social issue and what do we do sit right there in that church and do nothing or say anything. We just keep putting money in their collection plate. Why?
We set and listen to hypocrites in the news media (no matter which channel we have on) tell us a pack of lies and crap in order to further their agenda and what do
we do set right there and the next day we turn the same ones back on. Why?

Now who’s fault is that? It is ours, we made the choice to re-elect someone, we made the choice to listen to someone, we made the choice to go watch some movie and
support that very actor that just talked about something dumb that we do not agree with. We make the choice to return to that church that is preaching that we know in our hearts is not correct. Why?
How about we just say to hell with political correctness. Let us start talking– let us not be so thin skinned. Let us try not to be offended by someone else’s opinion.

Just a little info for you, for everyone of these people that try to blow smoke up your
backside, they are humans just like you or me– none of them is God or Jesus. They put their pants on the same way as you do one leg at a time. They are no smarter than we are if we just use what God gave us (brains) and apply some common sense. What they are telling a lot of time are opinions, and opinion are like rectums , and everyone has one. Do your own homework and make sure you get your information from a good source. Then check them also. If you want the best source read the Bible, everything can be found in there, if you spend some time looking.

LISTEN TO JESUS HE IS YOUR SAVIOR AND LORD HE WILL NOT LEAD YOU OFF  TRACK.

Just thought you might like to know what happened to the men that
signed our Declaration of Independence.
This is part of a speech given by Limbaugh Sr. at one time and Paul Harvey on another occasion.  I am tired of simpletons telling me these men were just old white rich men.  Some people say they were controlled by the Devil or Illuminati. I say that God  had control. Some were not Christians but they wanted to give you the right to worship God as you wished and to be a free agent as God intended and created you to be. They sacrificed everything they had to bring  this great country to life. But in today’s society we have to make them out to be evil old men that only had only their best interest, greed and the want of power on their mind. By what happened to them they sure screwed that one up didn’t they.

What kind of men were the 56 signers who adopted the Declaration of
Independence and who,by their signing, committed an act of treason against the crown? To each of you the names Franklin, Adams, Hancock, and Jefferson are almost as familiar as household words. Most of us, however, know nothing of the other signers. Who were they? What happened to them?
I imagine that many of you are somewhat surprised at the names not
there: George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Patrick Henry. All were elsewhere. at the time of the Declaration was being formed. Ben Franklin was the only really old man. Eighteen were under 40; three were in their 20s. Of the 56 almost half -24- were judges and lawyers. Eleven were merchants, 9 were landowners and farmers, and the remaining 12 were doctors, ministers, and politicians. With only a few exceptions, such as Samuel Adams of Massachusetts, these were men of substantial property. All but two had families. The vast majority were men of education and standing in their communities.

They had economic security as few men had in the 18th century. Each had more to lose from revolution than he had to gain by it. John Hancock, one of the richest men in America, already had a price of 500 pounds on his head. He signed in enormous letters so “that his Majesty could now read his name without glasses and could now double the reward.” Ben Franklin wryly noted: “Indeed we must all hang together, otherwise we shall most assuredly hang separately.” Fat Benjamin Harrison of Virginia told tiny Elbridge Gerry of Massachusetts: “With me it will all be over in a minute, but you , you will be dancing on air an hour after I am gone.

These men knew what they risked. The penalty for treason was death by
hanging. And remember: a great British fleet was already at anchor in New York Harbor.
They were sober men. There were no dreamy-eyed intellectuals or draft
card burners here. They were far from hot-eyed fanatics, yammering for an explosion.
They simply asked for the status quo. It was change they resisted. It was equality with
the mother country they desired. It was taxation with representation they sought.
They were all conservatives, yet they rebelled. It was principle, not property, that had brought these men to Philadelphia.
Two of them became presidents of the United States. Seven of them
became state governors. One died in office as vice president of the United States.Several
would go on to be U.S. Senators.
One, the richest man in America, in 1828 founded the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. One, a delegate from Philadelphia, was the only real poet, musician and
philosopher of the signers (it was he, Francis Hopkinson – not Betsy Ross who designed the United States flag).
Richard Henry Lee, A delegate from Virginia, had introduced the  resolution to adopt
the Declaration of Independence in June of 1776. He was prophetic in his concluding remarks: “Why then sir, why do we longer delay? Why still deliberate? Let this
happy day give birth to an American Republic. Let her arise not to devastate and to conquer but to reestablish the reign of peace and law. The eyes of Europe are fixed upon us. She demands of us a living example of freedom that may exhibit a contrast in the felicity of the citizen to the ever increasing tyranny which desolates her polluted shores. She invites us to prepare an asylum where the unhappy may find solace, and the persecuted repose. If we are not this day wanting in our duty, the names of the American Legislatures of 1776 will be placed by posterity at the side of all of those whose memory has been and ever will be dear to virtuous men and good citizens.”

Though the resolution was formally adopted July 4, it was not until
July 8 that two of the states authorized their delegates to sign, and it was not until August 2, that the signers met at Philadelphia to actually put their names to the Declaration.

William Ellery, delegate from Rhode Island, was curious to see the
signers’ faces as they committed this supreme act of personal courage. He saw some men sign quickly, “but in no face was he able to discern real fear.”
Stephan Hopkins, Ellery’s colleague from Rhode Island, was a man past
60. As he signed with a shaking pen, he declared: “My hand trembles, but my heart does not.” “Most glorious service”
Even before the list was published, the British marked down every
member of Congress suspected of having put his name to treason. All of them became the objects of vicious manhunts. Some were taken. Some, like Jefferson, had narrow escapes. All who had property or families near British strongholds suffered.
– Francis Lewis, New York delegate saw his home plundered and his
estates in what is now Harlem, completely destroyed by British soldiers. Mrs. Lewis was captured and treated with great brutality. Though she was later exchanged for two British prisoners though the efforts of Congress she died from the effects of her abuse.
– William Floyd, another New York delegate, was able to escape with his
wife and children across Long Island Sound to Connecticut, where they lived as refugees without income for seven years. When they came home they found a devastated ruin.

– Philips Livingstone had all his great holdings in New York confiscated and his family driven out of their home. Livingstone died in 1778 still working in Congress for the cause.

– Louis Morris, the fourth New York delegate, saw all his timber, crops, and livestock taken. For seven years he was barred from his home and family.

– John Hart of Trenton, New Jersey, risked his life to return home to see his dying wife.

Hessian soldiers rode after him, and he escaped in the woods. While his wife lay on her deathbed, the soldiers ruined his farm and wrecked his homestead. Hart, 65, slept
in caves and woods as he was hunted across the countryside. When at long last, emaciated by hardship, he was able to sneak home, he found his wife had already been buried, and his 13 children taken away. He never saw them again. He died a broken man in 1779, without ever finding his family.
– Dr. John Witherspoon, signer, was president of the College of New Jersey, later called Princeton. The British occupied the town of Princeton, and billeted troops in the
college. They trampled and burned  the finest college library in the country

– Judge Richard Stockton, another New Jersey delegate signer, had
rushed back to his estate in an effort to evacuate his wife and children. The family found refuge with friends, but a Tory sympathizer betrayed them. Judge Stockton was pulled from bed in the night and brutally beaten by the arresting soldiers. Thrown into a common jail, he was deliberately starved. Congress finally arranged for Stockton’s parole, but his health was ruined. The judge was released as an invalid, when he could no longer harm the British cause. He returned home to find his estate looted and did not live to see the triumph of the revolution. His family was forced to live off charity.

– Robert Morris, merchant prince of Philadelphia, delegate and signer,
met Washington’s appeals and pleas for money year after year. He made and raised arms and provisions which made it possible for Washington to cross the Delaware at Trenton. In the process he lost 150 ships at sea, bleeding his own fortune and credit almost dry.

– George Clymer, Pennsylvania signer, escaped with his family from
their home, but their property  was completely destroyed by the British in the Germantown and Brandywine campaigns.

– Dr. Benjamin Rush, also from Pennsylvania, was forced to flee to Maryland. As a heroic surgeon with the army, Rush had several narrow escapes.

– John Martin, a Tory in his views previous to the debate, lived in a strongly loyalist area of Pennsylvania. When he came out for independence, most of his neighbors and even some of his relatives ostracized him.  He was a sensitive and troubled man, and many believed this action killed him. When he died in 1777, his last words to his
tormentors were: “Tell them that they will live to see the hour when they shall
acknowledge it [the signing] to have been the most glorious service that I have ever rendered to my country.”-

William Ellery, Rhode Island delegate, saw his property and home burned to the ground.

– Thomas Lynch, Jr., South Carolina delegate, had his health broken from privation and exposures while serving as a company commander in the military. His doctors
ordered him to seek a cure in the West Indies and on the voyage he and his young bride were drowned at sea.

– Edward Rutledge, Arthur Middleton, and Thomas Heyward, Jr., the other
three South Carolina signers, were taken by the British in the siege of Charleston. They
were carried as prisoners of war to St. Augustine, Florida, where they were singled out for
indignities. They were exchanged at the end of the war, the British in the meantime having completely devastated their large landholdings and estates.

– Thomas Nelson, signer of Virginia, was at the front in command of the Virginia military forces. With British General Charles Cornwallis in Yorktown, fire from 70 heavy
American guns began to destroy Yorktown piece by piece. Lord Cornwallis and his staff moved their headquarters into Nelson’s palatial home. While American cannonballs were making a shambles of the town, the house of Governor Nelson remained untouched. Nelson turned in rage to the American gunners and asked, “Why do you spare my home?” They replied, “Sir, out of respect to you.” Nelson cried, “Give me the cannon!” and fired on his magnificent home himself, smashing it to bits. But Nelson’s sacrifice was not quite over. He had raised $2 million for the Revolutionary cause by pledging his own estates. When the loans came due, a newer peacetime Congress refused to honor them, and Nelson’s property was forfeited. He was never reimbursed. He died, impoverished, a few years later at the age of 50.

Lives, fortunes, honor Of those 56 who signed the Declaration of Independence, nine died of wounds or hardships during the war. Five were captured and imprisoned, in each case with brutal treatment. Several lost wives, sons or entire families. One lost his 13 children. Two wives were brutally treated. All were at one time or another the victims of manhunts and driven from their homes. Twelve signers had their homes completely burned. seventeen lost everything they owned. Yet not one defected or went back on his pledged word.

Their honor, and the nation they sacrificed so much to create is still intact. And, finally, there is the New Jersey Signer, Abraham Clark. He gave two sons to the officer corps in the Revolutionary Army. They were captured and sent to that infamous British prison hulk afloat in New York Harbor known as the hell ship “Jersey,” where 11,000 American captives were to die. The younger Clarks were treated with a special brutality because of their father. One was put in solitary and given no food. With the end almost in sight
with the war almost won, no one could have blamed Abraham Clark for acceding to the British request when they offered him his sons lives if he would recant and come out for the King and Parliament. The utter despair in this man’s heart, the anguish in his very soul, must reach out to each and one of us down through 200 years with the answer: “No.”

The 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence proved by their every deed that they made no idle boast when they composed the most magnificent curtain line in history.

“And for the support of this Declaration with a firm reliance on the
protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.”

PAUL HARVEY
‘IF I WERE THE DEVIL’
Mr. Harvey gave this speech in 1965

If I were the devil … If I were the Prince of Darkness,
I’d want to engulf the whole world in darkness.

And I’d have a third of it’s real estate, and
four-fifths of its population, but I wouldn’t be happy
until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree — Thee. So
I’d set about however necessary to take
over the United States.

I’d subvert the churches first
I’d begin with a campaign of whispers.

With the wisdom of a serpent, I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve:

“Do as you please.”

To the young, I would whisper that ‘The Bible is a
myth.’ I would convince them that man created
God instead of the other way around. I would confide that
what’s bad is good, and what’s good is square.

And the old, I would teach to pray, after me,

Our Father, which art in Washington…

And then I’d get organized. I’d educate authors in
how to make lurid literature exciting, so that anything else would appear dull and uninteresting.
I’d threaten TV with dirtier movies and vice versa.
I’d pedal narcotics to whom I could.
I’d sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction.

I’d tranquilize the rest with pills.

If I were the devil I’d soon have families that war with
themselves, churches at war with themselves,
and nations at war with themselves; until each in its turn was
consumed.

And with promises of higher ratings I’d have mesmerizing media fanning the flames.
If I were the devil I would encourage Schools to refine young intellects, but neglect to discipline emotions
— just let those run wild,until before you knew it, you’d have to have drug sniffing dogs and metal detectors at every schoolhouse door.
Within a decade I’d have prisons overflowing, I’d
have judges promoting pornography.

Soon I could evict God from the courthouse, then from the
schoolhouse, and then from the houses of Congress.

And in His own churches I would substitute psychology for religion, and deify science. I would lure priests and pastors into misusing boys and girls, and church money.

If I were the devil I’d make the symbols of
Easter an egg and the symbol of Christmas a bottle.

If I were the devil I’d take from those, and who have, and
give to those wanted until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. And what do you bet? I could get whole
states to promote gambling as thee way to get rich? I would caution against extremes and hard work,
in Patriotism, in moral conduct. I would convince the young that marriage is old-fashioned, that swinging is more fun, that what you see on the TV is the way to be. And thus I could undress you in public, and I could lure you into bed with diseases for which there is no cure.
In other words, if I were the devil I’d just keep right on doing on what he’s doing.

FOR EACH ACTION I TAKE– HOW WILL I ANSWER GOD.

There are a lot of us who would like to have peace on earth and good will towards all men.
Will how do we get there?

I believe we have to start on the individual level.
Which means each one of us has start looking inside ourselves. In other words we must take the planks from our own eyes before we start trying to remove a splinter from someone else eye.
You we all have a lot of crap inside we have to flush out. I know I did and found that out after I lost my oldest son. It was not easy and I still got along ways to go, but I have started.
The first thing is to try to think of all you have said and done. Then be honest with yourself
and ask God forgiveness in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Do not try to hide any of the crap because God already knows and the only one you are misleading is yourself. Get it out and start fresh just like you are a new born baby.

Why do we do the things we do now? All of us are looking for fame, to be noticed,
to leave our mark on the world. Well I hate to tell you maybe that is not what God wanted for you. I see people all the time do some of the dumbest things to get noticed, like little children do to get their parents’ attention. We make up disorders to get attention. We want to wear what is in style in clothing and sometimes we cannot afford it, but we buy it anyway. We want the new car to impress the people that see us in it. We want people to think of us that we made it. We have to have the nicest things to be impressive. Why can’t we be who God wanted us to be  just a person willing to go the extra mile to provide a helping hand to someone in need.
Why do we look down at someone that does not have the things we do, or looks nice and neat clean, or maybe be a little over weight, or is in our presumption to be ugly or not good looking with a great body. We have a materialistic view of everything. We worship fame and wealth. I know this because not to long ago I was in that boat. I am trying very hard to stay away from that now, but it is not easy. But with each passing day it does become easier. Why? Because I have turned to God. I am flushing the crap out and asking for forgiveness through Jesus Christ, my Lord and savior.

I do not understand why people today have such a hard time believing and coming to God.
I believe if there is just small chance of eternal life why would you not take it?
Oh I know because you might not be able to do something now that feels good.
Grow up hippie you are not a child now. It is a real harsh world and if you want
to change it you had better change it in you, inside. God through Jesus is waiting
with open loving arms. Stop trying to be everyone’s nanny. You have enough just getting
yourself right with God. Stop listening to news pundits and politicians,
stars of screen and stage, pot agitators, and anyone else blowing smoke up your backside.
Listen to your gut and heart God is talking to you. If you believe in God/Jesus
just a little then maybe you should fear God because it is the beginning of knowledge.

“Do not be afraid of those who kill the body, but cannot kill the soul,
rather be afraid of the ONE who can destroy both the soul and body in hell.” Matthew 10:28.

Have you ever ask yourself where we jumped the tracks and let these fools
in Washington DC and the state capitals take control and screw our lives up. I am ready to take the plank from my eye– are you?

I believe when we started letting politicians  tell us that it is not politically correct and that we have to take God or anything to do with Christianity out of public view and If we do not do this we may offend someone. You can pray in school or work 5 times a day as long as it is to Allah. Well you know something Allah is the God of Ibrahim, as Christians we worship The God of Abraham. For all the idiots that do not open a Bible or a Quran, Abraham and Ibrahim is the same guy. So that would make it the same God. It is a different way to worship Him but He is the same God in both religions. But this I will save to another post.

When will you say enough,is enough. When will you take a stand on God’s
principles and standards. When will the over 6 million so called
Christians that voted for this president stand on God’s principles.
When will the over 50 percent of Catholics that voted for this
president stand on God’s principles. When will we as Christians tell
our faith leaders to stop with the social issues and stand on God’s
principles.

I know I have from August 20,2013 on and will be a lot stronger for God
/Jesus. I will not let anyone take me off the tracks of God and My
Lord Jesus Christ. Will you become a Watchman for God?

On November 22 1963 John Kennedy Died in Dallas Texas. On that day in
Texas he was to give a speech, This is part of that speech:

“We in this country in this generation are, by destiny rather than choice,
the watchman on the walls of world freedom. We ask therefore, that we
may be worthy of our power and responsibility, that we may exercise
our strength with wisdom and restraint, and that we may achieve in
our time and for all time the ancient vision of “peace on
earth, goodwill toward men.” That must always be our goal. For as
written long ago, Except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in
vain.”

This part of the speech comes from The Founders Bible, which you can get at:

http://www.wallbuilders.com
This is a Bible I would highly recommend to you.

Pick up your Bible and read it, find out just how the political and faith
leaders have twisted and usurped the Bible. Find out for yourself
what they call social issue is actually Biblical issues. Find out
for yourself that everything in your life is Biblical. From your
birth to your death your life can and should be guided in the Bible,
It is all in there. The only way for you to know the truth is for you
to pick up the Bible yourself and read it the study it. Because
without God/Jesus we are never going to get this train back on the
tracks.
