They're given over.

The government employees are given over to the progressive agenda. We're further down the road than many realize. Eric holder disregards DOMA. The FBI has "hundreds of agents" looking here and abroad to find the motive of the shootings in Chattanooga. Hello? A guy with a name like that targets military personnel? He didn't do the theater or the mall. Notice too the wording: whether he acted out of his own motives, or was radicalized. His personal finances were failing, or he was motivated by ISIS. How about a third option, it was his own personal Jihad? Point is, that whole agency is completely loyal to the progressive takeover. Wake up, see it for what it is. Not enough? How about Sheriff Joe now being harassed? And the group that made the baby parts for sale video is now the target of investigation. Open suppression of dissent. That to me is a BIG turning point. Before, there would have been a big fake show of concern, a few heads would roll (temporarily reassigned) and the matter would be intentionally forgotten. Mark this day on your calender.

On a related note, I wonder if anyone has made the Distraction Chronicles...keep a record of events damaging to the progressive image, and see if there's a correlation of loud distracting events at those times.

 I am completely for stopping illegal immigration, so don't take this the wrong way. Actually, I was thinking about working in a land where I didn't know the language well. Is an immigrant that doesn't know the language well more attentive to the work process? Not so much assembly line work, but construction. The immigrant won't be able to take orders very well, so he'll be anticipating what step is next.

 It has been said that time began when God made the Earth and Sun; but I'm wondering if we can regard that as the physical beginning of time, and another point as the de-facto beginning of time. Or the beginning of time for mankind. This is just something I was pondering while driving; I think there's a connection with the rest of life. Specifically, if man was eternal at the beginning, well, then time began for man when sin came. The importance is that the clock began ticking when evil came. The clock began ticking for everything and everyone in this world. We get old and die, countries rise and fall. People get in a situation that's better than the awful situation of others, so they want to maintain it. That desire leads to the myth of continuity. I guess my speculation is that time itself has an evil side. Technology brings some good things, but the bad guys are keen to use it. They incrementally consume and corrupt that which is good. They nullify the education of a generation; so they can take -everything- like "taking candy from a baby". Thus, time is a vehicle of evil? I'm not trying to establish a philosophical idea that may not be defensible; but trying to get people away from complacency, away from ignoring  how bad things are. You grow too many roots, and you lie to yourself. Abraham stayed mobile. Lot went to the city and had a house. Be mobile in your mindset.

 Two questions. I have two questions for all those talk show hosts that claim to be Christian, but never acknowledge God or the Adversary as relevant to current affairs.  First question: Is there an omnipresent God who created the heavens and the earth, the God of the Bible? Second question: From what he has revealed of Himself, do you suppose he considers the mandatory teaching in all public schools that there is no God, no standard of morality to impressionable children to be just another passing political incident? I think He would tell you there is no greater offense, and that it's the entirety of future generations. We now have that generation, the Godless generation. Where's the bumper sticker that says: "I'm godless, and I vote"?  I noticed.

 It would be one thing for countries like Russia and China to be buying gold. Economics can be complex, so I don't know all the interactions of one county's decisions. It could be that since those two countries are trying to establish an alternate world currency, they want to hold less dollars in reserve, to weaken the importance of the dollar world wide. The gold is there to offset the decrease in dollars? I guess countries have a reserve so that they can counter difficult trends and events in their own economies. Then again, they really could be expecting a crash of the dollar. As I said, I'm out of my league on this one, but what I'm wondering about is Texas. As a part of a bigger national economy, they might not need a reserve to make the same manipulations and counter measures that a country would. So why are they bringing their gold back to Texas? Do they know something about the near future of the dollar? 

And now, a couple cartoons for your entertainment.
