Just Whose Side Are You On Anyway

THE THEN SENATOR BARACK OBAMA DISPLAYS HIS DISRESPECT
FOR THE NATIONAL ANTHEM AND THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES. 
I was watching television that day back in 2008 and I though there was no way this man could be elected president of the United States displaying that much disrespect for our National Anthem and The Flag of the United States. Oh, How wrong I was, not once but twice.

From Sunday, September 7, 2008, televised 'Meet the Press' Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag. 

Sun, 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, General Bill Ginn' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain why he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.

The General also stated to the Senator that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171... During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. At the very least, 'Stand and Face It'. 

Senator Obama Explains his stance on the flag and America in general, “As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides, Obama said. There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute it. We should consider to reinvent our National Anthem as well as to redesign our Flag to better offer our enemies hope an love. It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we as a Nation of warring people, should conduct ourselves as the nations of Islam, whereas peace prevails. Perhaps a state or period of mutual concord between our governments. When I become President, I will seek a pact or agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation have placed upon the nations of Islam an unfair injustice. My wife disrespects the Flag for many personal reasons. Together she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past, many years ago. She has her views and I have mine'. Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put aside my hatred. I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path of hope. My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First Family. Indeed, CHANGE is about to OVERWHELM the United States of America.”

He does not want to be perceived as taking sides? Just what country is he the president of. If he ran for the presidency of the United States of America he surely chose to take sides. If not, then he should not be president. The president of the United States of America should be on our side!
  
I spent eight years in the United States Air Force and was proud to face the flag and salute during retreat every evening at 5 p.m. I have no respect for people who don't respect the flag for whom hundreds of thousands of men have died fighting our and our allies enemies from the revolution of 1781 to the Wars we are presently conducting in the middle east against those peace loving, suicide bombing Islam, Christian Killers and Jewish Killers. Peace loving....the north end of my plowing mule when he's on a southbound row.

Rage, Rage against the dying of the light

By Ray Rogers

Because I love the light my hearts sinks as I look across the twilight sky and see the darkness coming.

Then there are those who love the darkness. They yearn for it, they can't wait for it because it hides their sins. The lovers of darkness feel so much bolder when darkness covers the world. They rejoice together feeling confident in their ungodliness.

Yet still we lovers of the light become angry at those that rejoice in the darkness. Being angry doesn't mean that you hate someone. Quite the contrary, it is those that you love that make you the most angry.

We who have been led by the Spirit of Truth know what is good and when we see the goodness being taken over by the status quo it breaks our hearts and makes us angry.

Another Christian institution has fallen to the darkness of the world. I'm of course talking about the Boy Scouts of America. An institution that was created to help build a child's character. What I want to know is why would an 11 year old boy be obsessing over sex and whether he was gay or not when he should be learning about first aid and earning merit badges. 
I'm sure that it wasn't a child who made being gay in the scouts an issue. It had to be someone who had a beef with the fact that they can't stand anything in this world that is pure and wholesome.

God's word does tell us that there will be those that will call good evil and evil good. Light darkness and darkness light.

Those who love darkness become angry with us because we who love the light get upset at the dying of the light. They say hateful things, they laugh at us, and mock us when the courts choose their side.

Dylan Thomas said it best with the poem he wrote for his father at his death bed that states: Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

As we watch our country fall into darkness in our government, our schools, and our sacred institutions. We begin to shout out against it. Seemingly to no avail, nevertheless we will always rage against the dying if the light, but remember at the end of every darkness there comes a new light.

Knowledge comes from study, but wisdom comes from God.
