Thanks for Debbie S, for sending me this article.... and what a wake up call !!

'WE ARE NOT COMING BACK.'

Hi Friends,
This is NOT about rehashing some old history, but setting the record straight and finding out the pure truth.... as we knew would wash upon the shore eventually, fter the election.    But here is the true significance and  value of the story.....  "We are NOT coming back !!"   Because we know / have learned that the true nature of the Electorate is stupidity, shallowness, greed, and being UN-educated !!  It's not going to get better, only worse.   Mr. Romney underestimated the populace and the Electorate by playing an honest, straight game -- playing "by the Rules" while Obama was playing fast and loose, lying all the time.  And from my last Blog post, we now know why he purposely delayed AND SLOWED DOWN the "Health care program" so long....  LOL,  because he knew that the people would have NEVER, ever, accepted it if they knew what was in it !!!   It may still be rejected....    but our national goose is already cooked.... AND THE MAJORITY OF AMERICANS WANT IT THIS WAY!   So...  whether you all think that means we should give up hope -- that is not my intention either, but please, let's at least wash away the dirt and film from our glasses and eyes, so that we may see clearly what the Lord HAS ORDAINED, dear friends.   That is my fondest wish and prayer.    

Well, Friends, for most of  you good, smart people who visit my humble Blog more frequently --- much of this truth is academic, thanks to the Faithful who have read the valued book of Revelation.   "The die is cast." [~Julius Caesar]     We look NOT for an American redemption or turn around, but a continued downward death spiral, much like Europe.   Yet, those of us, real, well read Christians can and will still be happy, glad and thankful for this short time ahead that we can do God's Will -- worshiping Him in Spirit and Truth, and sharing the Gospel.   Let's keep it simple.  

For some reason, my humble blog is getting a HUGE surge of readership lately !!  Someone is sharing my stories and writings and that is nice to know.   I could use some feed back and comments in the appropriate area down below -- easy to read, and just follow  the directions.  Many people shy away from this because I demand that folks just complete a SIMPLE ID process.   I tried to relax that program a bit a while back and got a ton of vile, dirty, vulgar people trying to high jack my page for their own back alley BS ring....  so I ended that in tha hurry.  What filthy animals lurk in the shadows....  Ha!!   People don't want to be accountable for their actions....  nothing new, the godless pigs.    Sorry..... but it's the bare truth.   We  can never let our guard down again, now that the 'horse is out of the barn....'   Wickedness, like a horrible virus is now multiplying at such a fast rate -- just like the Congress funnels so much money into slush funds so that they can pay their relatives millions of dollars, on "feather bed projects.....   HELLO OLD ROMAN EMPIRE of corruption.    You see again....  History always repeats itself, and God knows that too...  of course.   The human and demonic wickedness is SO INFESTED that God needs to just destroy the earth and start over, just as Revelation says it will happen.
      SO WHY WORK AND FIGHT AGAINST GOD'S PLANNED SYSTEM AND  PLAN ???    Instead of trying to prop up and  save this old corrupt  system of Satan, why not get with God's anointed, well documented PROGRAM ???    Even well meaning Christians are attempting to do the stupid thing of "fighting against God's Plan' -- wasting precious time, energy and resources in these  Last Days !!    The churches pray for this Satanic system and Gov't to be healed  -- when / while the angels are doing the separating work of sorting out who will be on the jet leaving this totally polluted planet Earth for the safety of Heaven, while God does His cleaning thing.     And I will certainly disagree [respectfully] with my own pastor, if I think or know that I am in the right !!   The Holy Spirit helps ME and all other Christians understand the KJV Bible, I hope  you all know !!   As for a HUGE amount of people in the USA suddenly "seeing the Light" and  converting to pure Christianity in a heart beat --- I just don't see it...   sorry.    I could be wrong, and if I am,  I will let you all know, and concede my mistake.   And that is why it always pays to be humble, dear friends.   

Can you believe that we even got a few snow flakes U.P. here last night, and the winds are strong and cold !!

Warm Regards,

We Are Not Coming Back
 
 
Please take a moment to digest this provocative article  
by a Jewish Rabbi from Teaneck, N.J.
It is far and away
 the most succinct and thoughtful explanation of how our nation is changing 
The article appeared in The Israel National News, and is directed to Jewish readership.  
70% of American Jews vote as Democrats.  
The Rabbi has some interesting comments in that regard. 

Rabbi Steven Pruzansky is the spiritual leader  
of Congregation Bnai Yeshurun in Teaneck, New Jersey
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
"The most charitable way of explaining the election results of 2012 
  is that Americans voted for the status quo - for the incumbent President and for a divided Congress.  They must enjoy gridlock, partisanship, incompetence, economic stagnation and avoidance of responsibility. And fewer people voted.
 
But as we awake from the nightmare, it is important to eschew the facile explanations  for the Romney defeat that will prevail among the chattering classes.  Romney did not lose because of the effects of Hurricane Sandy that devastated this area, nor did he lose because he ran a poor campaign, nor did he lose because the Republicans could have chosen better candidates,  nor did he lose because Obama benefited from a slight uptick in the economy due to the business cycle.
 
Romney lost because he didn't get enough votes to win.
 
That might seem obvious, but not for the obvious reasons.  
Romney lost because the conservative virtues - the traditional American virtues – of liberty, hard work, free enterprise, private initiative and aspirations to moral greatness - no longer inspire or animate a majority of the electorate.
 
The simplest reason why Romney lost was because it is impossible to compete against free stuff.
 
Every businessman knows this; that is why the "loss leader" or the giveaway is such a powerful marketing tool.  Obama's America is one in which free stuff is given away:  
the adults among the 47,000,000 on food stamps clearly recognized for whom they should vote, and so they did.  
The lure of free stuff is irresistible.
 
The defining moment of the whole campaign was the revelation of the secretly-recorded video in which Romney acknowledged the difficulty of winning an election in which "47% of the people" start off against him  
because they pay no taxes and just receive money - "free stuff" - from the government. Almost half of the population has no skin in the game - they don't care about high taxes, promoting business, or creating jobs,  
nor do they care that the money for their free stuff is being borrowed from their children and from the Chinese. They just want the free stuff that comes their way at someone else's expense. In the end, that 47% leaves very little margin for error for any Republican, and does not bode well for the future.
 
It is impossible to imagine a conservative candidate winning against such overwhelming odds. People do vote their pocketbooks. In essence, the people vote for a Congress who will not raise their taxes, and for a President who will give them free stuff, never mind who has to pay for it.
 
That engenders the second reason why Romney lost:  
the inescapable conclusion that the electorate is ignorant and uninformed 
Indeed, it does not pay to be an informed voter,  because most other voters - the clear majority – are unintelligent and easily swayed by emotion and raw populism.  That is the indelicate way of saying that too many people vote with their hearts and not their heads.  
That is why Obama did not have to produce a second term agenda, or even defend his first-term record. He needed only to portray Mitt Romney as a rapacious capitalist who throws elderly women over a cliff,
when he is not just snatching away their cancer medication, while starving the poor and cutting taxes for the rich.
 
During his 1956 presidential campaign, a woman called out to Adlai Stevenson: "Senator, you have the vote of every thinking person!"
Stevenson called back: "That's not enough, madam, we need a majority!"
Truer words were never spoken.
 
Obama could get away with saying that "Romney wants the rich to play by a different set of rules"  
- without ever defining what those different rules were; with saying that the "rich should pay their fair share"  
- without ever defining what a "fair share" is; with saying that Romney wants the poor, elderly and sick to "fend for themselves" 
- without even acknowledging that all these government programs are going bankrupt,  their current insolvency only papered over by deficit spending.
 
Similarly, Obama (or his surrogates) could hint to blacks that a Romney victory  would lead them back into chains and proclaim to women that their abortions and birth control would be taken away.  
He could appeal to Hispanics that Romney would have them all arrested and shipped to Mexico  and unabashedly state that he will not enforce the current immigration laws.  He could espouse the furtherance of the incestuous relationship between governments and unions  - in which politicians ply the unions with public money, in exchange for which the unions provide the politicians with votes,  in exchange for which the politicians provide more money and the unions provide more votes, etc., even though the money is gone.
 
Obama also knows that the electorate has changed - that whites will soon be a minority in America  (they're already a minority in California) and that the new immigrants to the US are primarily from the Third World and do not share the traditional American values that attracted immigrants in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is a different world, and a different America .  Obama is part of that different America , knows it, and knows how to tap into it. That is why he won.
 
Obama also proved again that negative advertising works, invective sells, and harsh personal attacks succeed.  That Romney never engaged in such diatribes points to his essential goodness as a person;  his "negative ads" were simple facts, never personal abuse - facts about high unemployment, lower take-home pay, a loss of American power and prestige abroad, a lack of leadership, etc.  As a politician, though, Romney failed because he did not embrace the devil's bargain of making unsustainable promises.
 
It turned out that it was not possible for Romney and Ryan - people of substance, depth and ideas -  to compete with the shallow populism and platitudes of their opponents. Obama mastered the politics of envy – of class warfare - never reaching out to Americans as such but to individual groups, and cobbling together a winning majority from these minority groups.  If an Obama could not be defeated - with his record and his vision of America, in which free stuff seduces voters - 
it is hard to envision any change in the future.
The road to Hillary Clinton in 2016 and to a European-socialist economy 
- those very economies that are collapsing today in Europe - is paved.
 
For Jews, mostly assimilated anyway and staunch Democrats, the results demonstrate again that liberalism is their Torah.  Almost 70% voted for a president widely perceived by Israelis and most committed Jews as hostile to Israel.  They voted to secure Obama's future at America's expense and at Israel's expense - in effect, preferring Obama to Netanyahu by a wide margin. A dangerous time is ahead. Under present circumstances, it is inconceivable that the US will take any aggressive action against Iran and will more likely thwart any Israeli initiative.  
The US will preach the importance of negotiations up until the production of the first Iranian nuclear weapon - and then state that the world must learn to live with this new reality.
 
But this election should be a wake-up call to Jews. There is no permanent empire, nor is there an enduring haven for Jews anywhere in the exile.  
The American empire began to decline in 2007, and the deterioration has been exacerbated in the last five years.  This election only hastens that decline. Society is permeated with sloth, greed, envy and materialistic excess.  It has lost its moorings and its moral foundations. The takers outnumber the givers, and that will only increase in years to come.
The "Occupy" riots across this country in the last two years were mere dress rehearsals for what lies ahead  years of unrest sparked by the increasing discontent of the unsuccessful who want to seize the fruits  
and the bounty of the successful, and do not appreciate the slow pace of redistribution.
 
If this election proves one thing, it is that the Old America is gone 
And, sad for the world, it is not coming back."

The problems we face today are there because  
 the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living.
