You Tube video

There were times in this society when men would hide their sins. We now flaunt it as jewelry. I was not shocked by the You Tube video of some of the Memorial High School students dancing provocatively before an elderly teacher; neither should the person who brought this video to your attention.

Our kids have become a product of what we as parents, preachers and teachers did and are still doing in those “clandestine places.” The Lord Jesus Christ Son of God said, “What is done in the dark will come to the light.” A very close friend of mine once said, “The things that make you laugh will make you cry” (what brings pleasure sometimes brings pain). We as a nation must first admit that we have a problem in our society and not just in one high school.

We must ask ourselves when did the problem start and how can it be fixed or if it can be fixed? Personally, I think that we are at the point of no return and the only reason God has not destroyed America is because of his grace and mercy. As the Amorites, of the Old Testament times, the iniquity of America is not yet full or complete.

  • Should Obama get credit or blame?

    In a long Saturday Nov. 12 feature column, the writer suggested that President Obama "could only take credit or blame for those things that are the result of his ideas."  He then listed twelve items for consideration in making that assessment.  An only slightly edited version of those twelve items will make them more useful for that purpose and that version follows.  (1) President Obama inherited Bush's Great Recession....which had actually been created, not by Bush, but by a failed seventy year experiment in socialism.  (2) He stabilized the banking system....using borrowed money.  (3) He extended unemployment benefits....using borrowed money. (4) He reduced taxes....using borrowed money.  (5) He signed a health-care law....funded by borrowed money.  (6) A nuclear arms treaty was signed with the Soviet Union....which had been defeated by Ronald Reagan twenty years ago. (7) Job loss steadily decreased and eventually has resulted in job gains....among government workers and funded by borrowed money. (8) Obama saved the three American auto companies....using borrowed money.  (9) He passed a stimulus plan....using borrowed money.  (10) Several Al Qaeda leaders were killed....by our remarkable military teams trained during the Bush Administration.  (11) The President is trying to solve the nation's short and long-term economic problems....using borrowed money.  (12) President Obama has been willing to compromise....in order to raise taxes or borrow more money.   
    Based on the writer's list, does President Obama deserve credit or blame?
