You have made that point in several posts in the past. I never made the comparison in that light until now. It makes good sense to me. Decrease massive defense spending but, increase the budget to SOCOM. I love those black ops, covert, counterinsurgency, sneaky warriors. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Do you think the country is polarized? http://news.yahoo.com/key-west-fla-man-cites-obama-suicide-note-182700284.html A Key West, Fla., man was found dead Nov. 8 of an apparent suicide. A note found close to his body purportedly said, "Do not revive! (Expletive deleted) Obama!" The Associated Press reports police claim Henry Hamilton was distraught over President Barack Obama's re-election and followed through on his threat to kill himself should the president win the Nov. 6 contest.

One member stated that he and his wife were breaking association with former friends that voted for Obama. Several states have submitted petitions for secession.

Of course, the election is over. That was your whole interest in the matter in the first place. Blues, Dave Are you inviting me to keep it going?

I have to give BHO and his bunch kudos for subversion and subterfuge. Following similar tactics used in the Fast and Furious debacle, they have managed to convert the Benghazi cover up from a bravo sierra movie to a full blown sex scandal. Petraeus obviously screwed up, bad. However, by exposing him when they did the issue is now adultery, not the abandonment of Americans in a war zone. Remember, at the beginning Petraeus denied the movie aspect of the terrorist attack. He was ready to hang it on the White House. Well, they showed him. So now he is not expected to testify. But, if he does and he makes derogatory statements against BHO and the bunch, he will be viewed by the media sycophants as a disgruntled and chagrined former employee. It will just be sour grapes. To further cloud the issue they have now implicated GEN John Allen. Who is doing all this. BHO's personal FBI. Nice work BHO, nice work. In closing, I remain in standby, waiting for the total collapse of the America I love. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Nobody's going to secede. This is just being done by a few knuckle heads and a few with an agenda. I agree. This is just an example of the anger and division created by this administration and those in support of it. America is divided and so far no one is discussing unity. They have a couple months to deal with the fiscal cliff and four years to curb Obamacare. Somehow, I don't feel a secure comfort that our Congress is going to figure that out.

I get excited like a little kid when the Holy Spirit gives me or shows me something directly and immediately pertinent to something I am dealing with, like SC postings. It is joy to my soul. Why do you feel the need put down those who have suffered? Self imposed suffering doesn't get as much sympathy from me as that imposed by external events. You did it to yourself, unlike, say, a kid born into poverty to an addicted mother or a distraught worker whose boss dismisses him in a snit over presidential election results. I don't want to bait you into getting thumped again. However consider this, I was born into poverty with an alcoholic father who taught me that part of being a man was getting drunk.

Imagine this, I just read my morning devotional and it directly applies here. From Oswald Chambers: The Changed Life Nov122012 If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new —2 Corinthians 5:17 What understanding do you have of the salvation of your soul? The work of salvation means that in your real life things are dramatically changed. You no longer look at things in the same way. Your desires are new and the old things have lost their power to attract you. One of the tests for determining if the work of salvation in your life is genuine is— has God changed the things that really matter to you? If you still yearn for the old things, it is absurd to talk about being born from above— you are deceiving yourself. If you are born again, the Spirit of God makes the change very evident in your real life and thought. And when a crisis comes, you are the most amazed person on earth at the wonderful difference there is in you. There is no possibility of imagining that you did it. It is this complete and amazing change that is the very evidence that you are saved. What difference has my salvation and sanctification made? For instance, can I stand in the light of 1 Corinthians 13 , or do I squirm and evade the issue? True salvation, worked out in me by the Holy Spirit, frees me completely. And as long as I “walk in the light as He is in the light” (1 John 1:7), God sees nothing to rebuke because His life is working itself into every detailed part of my being, not on the conscious level, but even deeper than my consciousness.

Let go of the ego with its confused value systems and preoccupation with hedonism. God offers a restored way of thinking devoid of the mental attitudes that enslave us and an eternal relationship. ... After many years as a counselor in the field of substance use and dual diagnosis disorder, I have learned one constant about human nature. No one changes their behavior and/or their mind until the pain of change is less than the pain of staying the same. The naysayers in this forum are living the illusion of a self satisfied lifestyle. They do not venture from their comfort zone and so therefore are not challenged with the unknown. In other words, they do not enter an area of consciousness that would overwhelm them with anger, fear, depression or guilt. . Maybe if you spent less time with disfunctional people like yourself you would have a different view of normal. Just because you stewed your brain with chemicals doesn't mean the rest of us have to fight the demons you fight. The fight is over for me. It ended Apr 83. I just want to share the path to victory for those still in the fight. Since what we have to offer is of no interest to you, why do you feel the need to belittle and criticize?
