Attoreny General Eric Holder

Apparently we are a nation of cowards.

Apparently we aren't confronting the race issue head-on.

Apparently Eric Holder hates whitey and wants to blame whitey on the fact that our nation is "voluntarily socially segregated." AG Holder, think about that statement--VOLUNTARILY RACIALLY SEGREGATED. That's about choice and not racism.

Apparently I'm not asking the right questions or pursuing enough relationships with black people.

So am I supposed to walk up to every black person I see and ask "Will you be my friend?" Maybe I should apologize for being white? Maybe I should apologize for the fact that white folks enslaved black folks? Maybe I should be a part of repenting for this collective sin that my family had nothing to do with. My people came from Europe as immigrants and worked their collective asses off to make it in the New World. They didn't own anybody. They were God-fearing hard workers. Yet I'm supposed to apologize for that.

I'm supposed to apologize for my straight hair and my hatred for hip hop because it sucks. I'm supposed to apologize for my college education which I PAID FOR and WORKED FOR.

Screw that. I'm tired of apologizing. I don't burn crosses. I don't call people "niggers." I don't judge someone on the basis of the color of their skin. But Holder and his hate Whitey group would say that I do--that secretly I am racist because I don't have any black friends. I don't hang out with the Brothers on the weekends so therefore I have a white elitist problem. They'd probably have a thing or two to say about the fact that I didn't date a black man when I had the chance, and accuse me of saying "no thanks" based on the color of his skin and not the fact that he was a sexist asshole.

Forgive me AG Holder if I think you are stirring up trouble. This issue has been beaten to death. Let it go and deal with real legal issues that affect all of us.

Pray Obama Fails

http://wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=86469

From the above article:
I want Obama to fail because his agenda is 100 percent at odds with God's. Pretending it is not simply makes a mockery of God's straightforward Commandments.
So you will not see me joining in the ritual of affirming Obama and his mission in public or private prayer this week – or any other week.
Instead, I uphold the words of Jesus in Matthew 15:14: "Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch." And I take warning from Isaiah 9:16: "For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed."
And please don't tell me about "rendering unto Caesar."
It's important to consider the circumstances and the audience behind Jesus' instructions to "render unto Caesar." The Sadducees were attempting to trap Jesus into advocating open contempt for Caesar. He recognized their wicked and hypocritical little game and answered them with a totally truthful response that astonished everyone.
But think about it. There are two components to Jesus' words. We are to "render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's," but we are also to "render unto God the things that are God's." Well, everything ultimately belongs to God. But, most of all, this injunction by Jesus instructs us that government laws cannot trump God's laws – ever.
If government commands you to do evil, as a Christian you must resist. There is no alternative. Citing the "render unto Caesar" line is an apologetic for accountability to God – nothing more, nothing less.
Furthermore, it needs to be pointed out that in America we don't have a Caesar. Never have, never will. You see, our system of government is called a free republic, and it is based on the concept of constitutional self-government. We have no "rulers" in America – except ourselves and our God. We believe in the rule of law, not the rule of men.
This is an important distinction, not a semantic one.
Nowhere in the Bible does it teach us to obey evil rulers. Nowhere.
This is a time for principled biblical resistance, not phony Christian appeasement.
13 minutes late

Obama and Company are running late this morning. Held up services at St. Johns. Apparently an official prayer service isn't as important as the last minute make-up, lint check. I'm hoping that he doesn't pull this later on. You are taking the oath in a few hours. You don't be late for anything now.
