Root of Evil

What is it that can cause a person to steal from friends and relatives. What is it that can drive us to risk the well being of ourselves, our friends, our community and our nation.

Some have indeed abandoned oath of office and the good of constituents. It has caused judges and upstanding citizens disgrace and ruin.

I am sure, by now, most of you have figured it out. It is as Jesus said. The root of all evil is the love of money.

Indeed, when a man loves money more than than his brothers, then his brothers are not safe from him. When a president loves money more than his country, you get someone who looks a lot like Old Joe.

When a husband loves money more than his wife and family, he loses that which he has in casinos because of sicknessof greed. Moreover, he will steal so as to lose even more.

The love of money will drive a soldier or sailor to betray his country and the nation that loves money more than God will fall suddenly. For the one citizen will not trust the other.

Money causes man to do ugly things such as selling his fellow man into slavery and the woman into evil so as to increase his wealth. t will destroy the guilty man’s conscience so he knows no guilt.

In a strange ugly way, there are those evil men who seek money by distortion of God’s word, by promising wealth to those who will only have faith.

The I problem

Many have lately been saying that Old Joe has an I problem. Certainly, to some degree, the problem Old Joe has with Israel is real. Just how he will keep the Israelis vote without losing the Palestinian vote has created a thin line for him to walk.

I do believe his real problem is an H problem. He really should have had a talk with his HAMAS leader friends a long time ago. It’s far too late now. If HAMAS had held off until after November, it would have been a bunch smoother for Joe.

Then again, HAMAS might not have waited if Old Joe had gotten down on his hands and knees and begged. The H problem may have been unavoidable.

That Which is Cultured

In general, we know that, that which is cultured grows. That which is not cultured might still grow, but not as much.

Take the farmer and his corn. He plants it, fertilizes it, waters it. He removes weeds and pests. He watches for molds and when it comes time, if all goes well, he’ll harvest a bumper crop.

The farmer is not the only one that cultures. Cultures are used for vaccines and to identify illnesses. You go into a doctor with a really bad sore throat. He might take a swab to your throat and soon, after he runs a culture, he’ll hopefully be able to give you a shot in your backside and send you home to heal.

Recently, as a nation, we have been culturing something else. Liberalism, communism, thieves, killers and mostly controllers. For those who have not read my prior posts, controllers are people who seek control of people, places or countries. Those controllers who are not stopped, seek world control.

They go by different names, kings, rulers, senators, and representatives. Most who are in the House hope to become senators. Those in the Senate hope to become president. They seek control, not for the benefit of the nation, but for themselves and their friends.

In their efforts to gain control, they will frequently culture the worst part of society.

Oddly, when voters vote for a culture (controllers), those voters seem surprised. I mean, it is what they voted for. Why should they be surprised when it is what they get.

Think. The farmer is not surprised at his crop of corn. Why should we be surprised when we culture communism. The doctor is not surprised when his culture grows staff infection? Why should anyone be surprised after culturing crime, when we find our streets full of thieves and killers?

Really, it shouldn’t be a surprise. We put power hungry leaders in charge. Why is it that we should be surprised when they abuse that power?

Why Can’t My Son Go to the 4 Grade

WRONG QUESTION!!

I was watching news last night and I heard a woman complaining, Why can’t my son go to the 4th grade?

I understand her grief. I understand her desires. My older son spent time in a California school. He also spent some time in a Memphis school. It is the primary reason we moved to Desoto County.

My advice to that woman or to anyone who has his child in Shelby County schools, get them out! just as fast as they can.

Many things can be done to improve the schools, but that would take time. You don’t have time. Besides, I don’t think they want to improve the schools. Their purpose is to take your money and gain power. Some teachers try, but, for them, they are swimming upstream. When they make the other teachers look bad, the union reps have words with them.

At this point, I’m not sure Desoto County schools are that good. I saw signs of degrading the last few years my sons were there, decades ago. Today, I would do what I could to keep my dependents out of any public schools completely.

Moreover, my advice to this and all parents in Shelby County is to ask the right questions. My question, above all, is why is it that OUR children can’t read. I emphasize OUR, because we aren’t talking 2 or 3, or 5 or 6. We are talking thousands. Shelby County schools are some of the worst performing in Tennessee and the US.

If it were individuals, we could say the child is the problem. The fact is, it isn’t the failure of the students I’m concerned with. It is the failure of the system, one which has money flooding in, and failure flowing out.

The long term solution, vote Republican. Get those dems out of there just as fast as you can. Fire teachers who can’t or won’t teach. Better to have 8th graders who can teach than a PhD who can’t.

Finally, minimize control by teachers unions.They have no business at all in the control of the schools, teaching methods or what is being taught.

Lest We Forget

Every time I turn on the news, it seems the first words are something to the effect, First president to stand trial….

May I remind one and all, Clinton admitted to felonies while still in office. Quite possibly, the only reason he was not removed from office was a number of hard-headed dems who did not want to admit the truth.

Moreover, the FBI director effectively told the whole world that Mrs. Clinton committed crimes for which she should have been permanently placed behind bars. Then she was let go. She had 2 things going for her, her name and her political party.

Then there is the granddad of them all, literally. Old Joe is escaping prosecution cause he’s too senile to stand trial. This is on record from the special prosecutor, though he put it a little more politely.

A Brief Look Back at German History

I say this with great caution. It will make it so I can easily be misquoted. And to be sure, we do live in a society that loves to misquote intentionally for personal gain.

There is one part of German history that the dems would love for the world to forget forevermore. During the time that Hitler was making his move, the communists were already well on their way to establishing themselves in the leadership of Germany and many other European countries, as well as the US.

Many would like us to forget that the communists were well on their way to dominance in Europe when Hitler put a stop to it. Had he not done that, it might have been the Soviets we fought in WWII.

Don’t get me wrong. I am no fan of Hitler. I certainly have no desire to build a statue for his memory. However, I am no cheerleader of the communists either, as are the dems.

Unconstitutional? So What!

It is Old Joe’s attitude and the dems are right behind him.

He decided to forgive student loans. The Supreme Court said you can’t do that. It is UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Now we all know, he did it anyway.

Did anyone slap his hands? Old Joe does something really illegal and does he get taken to court. Does he pay any fine? Nope. Everyone looks the other way. They are too busy going after Trump, who they know to be innocent.

Now, before the Court, the issue of government affecting free speech. If Joe wins, if Old Joe loses, what’s the difference. There will be no penalty, leastways not as much I can tell. My best guess, Old Joe will say, “So what!” and he’ll keep doing what he wants to.

It would appear that the court has all but lost its true power to as umpire, and Old Joe knows it. He just goes off and does as he wants and the Court feebly waves their arms and say, “You can’t do that.”

Old Joe really is a Friend Of Criminals. The Criminals don’t pay their loans, and Joe helps them.

Wicker was looking over his shoulder.

Over a quarter of the Mississippi Republicans voted against Wicker. Considering that he is the incumbent, Considering the money he put into his campaign, I’d say he did pretty poorly.

The problem is, we must wait another 6 years to do anything. My guess is, we can thank the crossover dems and rinos for what we will again have to put up with.

At least we do have one thing to hope for. Age is the ultimate term limiter. I suspect he will not run after this term.

Then again, I am old enough that I won’t likely be around to see it.

Rare Agreement

I rarely agree with any said by Old Joe. However, in this case I must. In the state of the union address, Old Joe said, “Freedom and Democracy are under assault.” I agree. It is casual to the most obvious observer that freedom and democracy are in substantial danger. Moreover, so are the Constitution and Bill of Rights. This is especially true for freedom of speech, freedom of religion and right to bear arms.

The dems are doing their best to destroy every bit of it.
