Life Thoughts

Let me first just say that wireless internet access is a great thing. I can post tonight without even having to leave my bedroom. But I digress. We're now getting down to the wire in the Presidential race. I find that the whole process can really be frustrating at times. I feel very passionate about who I'm going to vote for for President, as I'm sure many other people do. I really believe in my heart that George Bush is the right man at the right point for the job. I know that others think John Kerry is, and I really have trouble seeing why sometimes. But I suppose everyone has their own "world view," and they will vote as they see fit. It's frustrating to watch how things are spun back and forth. It would be almost better sometimes if there were no "Spin Doctors" for either side - just the candidates. Just be real with us. I think Bush does a better job of that, and I understand that things are a certain way in politics for whatever reason, but I wish that it could be different sometimes. We watched the third Presidential debate last night, and I though Bush had his best showing yet. I thought he looked comfortable and confident, and he had a lot of good points to make. From a Christian point of view, I loved what Bush had to say about his faith. It was just another reassurance of why I believe he is the right man for the job. Kerry had some interesting things to say about his faith, and I'm not going to be the one to judge him, but I would just like to point out a couple observations I made. Kerry mentioned that "faith without works is dead," and tried to tie to that Bush's job performance. Funny that the people who push so hard for Separation of Church and State (which by the way is a myth; it was never intended to take the form that liberals have changed it into. The Constitution says, "Congress shall make no law regarding the establishment of religion or the prohibition thereof." It does NOT say that religion can't be involved in government. It's meant to keep government out of religion, NOT vice versa.) will use Scripture to attack someone. Secondly I thought it was interesting that Kerry mentioned that gays and lesbians are created that way. Sorry, John. You're not reading the same Bible I am. It says we are all created in God's image. It also says that the practice of homosexuality is an abomination. Taking that reasoning, God could not create anyone as a homosexual. Plus it just goes against the laws of nature. It shouldn't take too much effort to see that. Kerry wants to play both sides. He wants to quote Scripture, but then he makes statements that are in STARK contradiction to what the Bible says. I just thought it was interesting. Take it for what it's worth.
And those are tonight's thoughts...

Words from a song or a quote from an action movie? Nope. That's what President Bush had to say about John Kerry's less than spectacular voting record during his 20 plus years in the U.S. Senate. I loved that line in the debate last Friday night. I think it accomplished something that President Bush wasn't able to do in the first debate. He was finally able to point out the fact that Kerry's record just doesn't jive with what he stands for. During the debate he said we need better intelligence, and we need to fund that intelligence (which we do). However, after the first WTC attack in 1993, he voted to CUT intelligence spending by over 7 BILLION dollars. He also says that he wants to reduce taxes for the middle class, but he has voted to raise taxes almost 100 times. Please explain to me how that one works.
This is something that just doesn't make sense to me. How can you constantly say you're for something, but deny it by your actions? Kerry has been proven to be a "flip flopper" time and time again, yet he proves to still be wildly popular. Are people just not thinking critically when they look at him as a candidate, or is it that their hatred for George Bush is so strong, it doesn't matter who they vote for, as long as it's not him?
It just seems quite odd to me sometimes. Say what you will about Bush, but he stinks with what he says, isn't afraid to stand up to the rest of the world, and truly seems to care about our country and our best interests. I'd much rather have someone occupying the White House who cares more about what I think than what the leaders of Europe think.
Oh just to add more evidence about Kerry (in an amusing way), check out this link : http://johnkerryads.websiteanimal.com/. It's definitely worth a listen.
Well that's my two cents for the day.
