He plagiarized that from Calvin Coolidge, who said it in overconfidence right before the great depression. Following his inauguration in 1980, Ronald Reagan redecorated the Oval Office by taking down the portrait of Democratic President Harry Truman and replacing it with a portrait of Republican Calvin Coolidge, who once declared that "The business of America is business." The number of Americans earning at least $1 million a year increased by more than eightfold during Ronald Reagan's presidency. http://www.shmoop.com/reagan-era/trivia.html Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Since one of my degrees is in business I say, Right On! Mitt Romney and Bain Capital were successful in business. That is what they are supposed to do. BHO was successful organizing poor people and defending those who profit from the poor. That is what socialists do.

It is not a question of fault. It is about God's will for the nation. This makes sense to me. I know people who pray for "God's will," and I can understand that more than praying for specific things. Even for someone who doesn't believe in God, I see this practice as a form of acceptance - an active and perhaps ritualistic approach to acceptance. And I can't really argue with that. We need a certain level of acceptance whether we believe in God or not, and I think we all have different ways of finding it. Sometimes I wonder why you post this stuff in here - if it simply amuses you to get the negative feedback. I mean, it's not exactly a pro-religion forum. But perhaps it's more of a "What's the point of preaching to the choir?" sort of thing? "Welcome to Speaker's Corner! This forum is intended for discussions outside skydiving, and was created after certain types of discussions in the Bonfire area (primarily concerning politics, guns and religion) became overly contentious and began driving people away from Bonfire. We recognize that some people want to discuss some of these more-contentious issues, and thus Speaker's Corner was created." I am the founder of the Christian Skydivers Association along with Mike Lewis and four other original members of the board. I was given that vision in 1984 and I have remained obedient. It is my duty and responsibility to bring forth the message of salvation, Scripture from the Word of God and, direction from the Holy Spirit to bring skydivers closer to a relationship with Jesus Christ. Right now believers are greatly concerned about the future of America. Thus, we pray. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Back in the day, I lived in Taos, NM, just NE of Espanola. If ever there was a state that needed a purge of the voter registration it is NM. You can get away with almost anything in NM. I drove a pickup truck for several months with a tag I found in the Taos County dump. No one ever questioned it and it was on the truck when I sold it.

Pray The Week Sunday September 23rd: Malachi 3:18, “So you will again distinguish between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve Him.”; Father, we pray that the American people will once again distinguish between the righteous and the wicked, between those who serve You and those who do not. We pray that we will choose righteous rulers, that we may live in peace with man and with You the One True God. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

So if the state of Florida went back an investigated all gun permits, at a cost of million of dollars, and found only 198 illegal ones out of millions, you would think that is a fine way to spend tax payers money.

You need to understand, it won't make too much difference whether BHO or Romney is in the White House. Remember it is two heads of the same snake. What does make a difference is that Romney has a track record of positive business management experience and BHO has a record as a failed President. Keep in mind, prior to 9-11, it was the Democrats that taught us the value of war and the military industrial complex. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

We had a Muslim Brotherhood … member elected to the presidency of Egypt. Twenty thousand people have been killed in Syria. We have tumult in Pakistan and of course Iran is that much closer to having the capacity to build a nuclear weapon,” Romney told about 1,600 people at a rally on the tarmac here. “These are not bumps in the road, these are human lives, these are developments we do not want to see." http://www.npr.org/2012/09/25/161730977/obama-at-the-u-n-in-shadow-of-campaign-politics?ft=1&f=1001 "This is time for a president who will shape events in the Middle East, not just be merciful or be at the mercy of the events," Romney said Monday.

Real News on the Blaze TV is on fire tonight discussing BHO's lack of empathy concerning the death of our Ambassador and three other Americans in Libya. Also included in the debate is his reference to Netanyahu as "noise." He had the opportunity on 60 Minutes to show executive leadership but, to him this is just a bump in the road. No leadership, no outrage, no priority, his focus is being on "The View" and getting re-elected. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Really? Then why all the focus on what Obama did in grade school and college decades ago? Romney clearly doesn't support the Bible as you understand it. How can you vote for him if that's your position? Um, which is it? Supporting the Bible, or practical fixes to the economy? BHO's background clearly determines where he is headed and what he wants to do to this country. I'm not voting for Romney on a religious basis. I am voting against BHO. When Christians vote they need to use the Bible as their guide. A lot of Christians will support BHO, I won't. Look for the shiny things of God revealed by the Holy Spirit.
