I'm a racist!

OK the other day I was called a racist for supporting McCain. I asked for an explanation on how supporting McCain was being racist. And for the first time I got an explanation.
No it makes no sense but it was interesting.
The explanation was
"Obama is so much better than McCain, that the only reason voting for McCain would be because Obama is black".

Uh huh

O.J. Simpson is pretty much done

I see his face, I realize how he is paying the price just like everybody will eventually. He did a bad thing 14 years ago. He got away. He caused a major media ruckus and was acquitted, but now it seems he is on his own and the support from everyone has faded. People are tired of the guy. Even those who supported him then have turned away from him since and want to see him pay the price.
Back then his now deceased friend Robert Kardashian read what sounded like a suicide note, so I would not be surprised if he will wind up taking his own life. It must be hard for his kids to know their father killed their mom. It must be tough to not wanting to see your dad go down, yet being more and more aware of the fact that he is the reason they have no mom.
This is very sad. Whatever your judge or jury may decide, you cannot hide from what is your destiny or doom.
What a way for a former hero to spend the final years of his life. Memories of his accomplishments have been overshadowed by his infamous years following football fame.
Robert Kardashian, a friend who went as far as choosing loyalty over his own conscience has died. So has Johnny Cochran.
What often happens with people who get away with something is that their mindset changes and they expect to get away with something less severe.
Coming back down to reality hits hard when you have once been so high on delusions of grandure and no longer old friends are there to catch you when you fall.
O.J. Simpson is back in the courts and I highly doubt that society or any jury will not make sure that he will pay for what he has done. 13 years ago and what has landed him back in front of a judge now.

Racism

I find it absolutely appalling to hear that there are still people left in this world who will not vote for a candidate because of his color.
I think that people who have those opinions should not be voting at all.
If I was to run for an office, I would not want to win because someone likes my color more than my opponent's.
If you are a racist, then you should not be voting at all. Your vote should NOT count!

Nothing. We are supposed to vote for somebody who we know nothing about?

Obama cannot pass a background check. Where is Fox News?

I am wondering why a person who cannot get a job as a guard is able to run the country. Barack Obama has a dirty past, or his supporters would not be working that hard to cover it up.
Nobody has yet dugg deep enough to give us at least some answers or hints.
I have no doubt that the media knows some things, but why won't they let us know?
This is the election and before we make our choice, we deserve to know what it is that the candidates have done in their past.
The good and the bad.
Fox news or anybody who has contacts there:
We NEED to know what Obama has done in his past. We deserve to know what it is that he is hiding.
We have a right to know if someone is applying for a job, so we have the right to know a job applicant's history if he applies for the highest office on earth as well!

Should politics and business be completely seperate?

Many have advised me that voicing my opinions is not good for business.
Following my Facebook group to help keep America from making a HUGE mistake I have made many new friends but also received messages from friends who even though some of them agree with my posts, don't think it's a good idea and even have told me that they are going to "have to" remove me from their friends, because associating with me may offend some of those they network with.
My comment to this is that you have to respect the other people's choice.
My choice to air my views, and theirs to not mix business and politics.
I personally believe that those with a voice online should go for it if they want to do it.
Voicing your political opinion can help and it can hurt, but regardless, it will bring along headaches.
Am wondering what you guys think?
What do you believe is the right thing to do for someone whose blogs get traffic and who has an opinion.
Share it or lay low?

True World Peace!

You cannot force it. You cannot try to play hero and expect everyone to say "OK, this guy wants us to get along, so I will just drop all my hatred, the hatred installed in me since I was a child, everything, and start loving Jews".
Many who are going to the polls have little knowledge of what the world is truly up against, and I am talking about evil forces.
If you believe that I hate people based on their religion, you are wrong.
It is the poison used to brainwash those people which I hate.
You cannot ignore what 1 Billion people in the world are following and you cannot ignore the messages in the book which will empower many more fanatics to step up and tell everyone that their god wants you to exercise their hatred by quoting what is in the book.
Before you coin a religion as peaceful, you need to take a closer look and know that what people believe in, they are willing to die for and when a religion calls upon its followers to take certain people with them, then this is something that will not stop causing more and more problems in the world and if you ignore those for too long, more and more hate groups are going to feel encouraged to take it to higher levels without any fear of consequences and without governments stepping in to stop it.
Do you see Obama stepping in if elected President? I don't. Not when he accepts major donations from Palestinian groups.
Will he be pro America? The country his wife and reverend have no respect for?
Will he make the right decision?
You have to evaluate those possibilities before you allow your emotions to run wild.
Once America has chosen a President, there will be 4 years suffering the consequences if only 4 years.
This election is crucial.
Blaming America for the world being in turmoil is like allowing anybody in the world to do whatever they want, and when that happens, violence will succeed.
Thruout history whenever a country has been divided, whenever there was anger towards a government, some of the most evil people came into power right after as seen in Red October and getting rid of the old German aristocracy to be replaced by Hitler.
America needs to stay cool, calm and collective.
Americans need to be smarter than falling into the trap.
This is not about buying a car which you may have warranty on.
This is about the future of the world, and if you do not feel comfortable with a choice others try to tell you is the right one to make, then remember that every citizen has one vote.
It has to be yours, one you can stand behind and one you would actually die for.

God Bless America and the World.
Peace! :)

There has to be a leader!

This is something I truly believe. I do not believe in communism or the ideology behind it, because it is against human nature.
Every country needs one leader and so does the world.
A lot of people are upset about my posts and in no way am I trying to put down people from Europe. But I have to say that America has been the nation in charge of the world, because all of the other nations including the United Nations have failed to provide reasonable security and solutions for the world.
America and Americans have made mistakes. Many. So what is better, to have European nations argue with each others over who has more control in the European Union while neglecting issues important to the world, or a nation which has overcome so much itelf and exercising experience to try to find solutions for the world?
America has been the country taking charge because someone strong had to and others were not up for the challenge.
America needs to continue set the pace, with the input of everybody in the world who wants to focus on creating a world which he and his family would like to live in.
Simplistic solutions will backfire, and too many Europeans and Americans underestimate the power of hatred which seem to center in the middle east.
Saying the U.S. is the reason for the hatred is bogus. You can look at the Palestinian Israeli issue from many, many angles, and that being THE number 1 issue to the United Arabic Congress (according to their own votes), I have to say that it's a MUST to look at that before one shall open his mouth about oil and other excuses they consider the reason for us getting involved over there.
I am not saying that oil and money is not a motivator for many in power, but I am saying it would be ignorant to state that as THE reason.
From a biblical standpoint, many consider this a holy war. Jerusalem. Christians believe in supporting Jews, and at the same time the Bible states that Jews will be judged harshly, but also be given a second chance to come to Christ.
The standpoint of Christians is not to judge, but to do their part to support Jews and then leave the rest in God's hands.
Support for Israel is at the core of American politics, and of course just like the "It's all about the oil" standard answer, there is the other one "America is full of Jews".
IMO it has nothing to do with either, or rather, whatever other factors may play into it, what the Bible says is what will happen. At least according to many voters. Many with voices and convictions. Many will be upset about me writing this, but why do you believe so many American voters want Israel supported, especially in the Bible belt?
You cannot write those people off at ignorant rednecks. People believe what they believe and saying religion and politics should be seperate sounds good on paper, but reality will always be far from that. What people are willing to die for is what they will also be willing to vote for. Plain and simple!
If YOU believe that God will want you to do something, you do it. Right?
There is a part in the New Testament saying the only unforgivable sin would be to go against the Holy Spirit, and if you go to church, or pray on your own and believe God tells you to support someone who supports the Jews, then why would it surprise you that that person will not vote accordingly?

In 1948 Israel was given to the Jews and the United Nations declared Israel a Jewish state.
There is a passage in the Bible saying "All thing work out for the best of God", not "All good things".
Out of evil comes good at the end, or rather God's will is still intact and the world is running according to His program regardless of all the evil done by humans.
Because of the atrocities of the 3rd Reich, the Jews went back to Jerusalem.
Germans no longer get blamed. Jews get blamed again. I am not saying Israel shouldn't chill, but I am saying that you can now see European nations such as France and Germany go back to pointing their fingers and many Germans have the nerve to say "Look, they are not any better than us, what they're doing to the Palestinians is just as bad as what Germans have done to them."
That is pathetic. One of the poorest and sorriest excuses, and I have read myself in German newspapers how Germans are now excusing their country's history using the current conflict trying to feel proud of their country again.
When I look at America's support of Israel, I feel like the U.S. is creating balance. Europe generally speaking is not in support of the Jews in Israel. Israel was attacked in 1967, unprovoked. Islam is full of leaders using scriptures telling followers to "dig out the Jews underneath each rock" and many other passages calling Muslims to exercise action against Jews (and Christians as well).
"But the Bible is full of violence as well!"
Yes, the Old Testament. But how about the New Testament?
What did Jesus preach?

If there is one issue I have, it is with simplifications, and I myself struggle sometimes when certain problems are brought to me which I cannot answer easily.
Is war the answer?
If it isn't, doesn't the Bible predict wars in the end?
The bottom line is that us judging and pretending to have solutions is wrong.
We are not created to control the world. Is America trying to control the world?
I'm sure many of the politicians at home would like to.
But who is to say that George W. Bush has that in mind when he deploys the troups?
Bush has written about his pilgrimage to Israel with Billy Graham, how Christ changed his life.
Of course, he is a rich Republican, so it's all a lie, correct?

I personally find a lot of flaw in Bush. But is he still the one who is meant to be President right now?
If you believe you can do a better job or that Obama really can create peace in the world, then do express this with your vote.
But if you have doubts, try to look at the world, God, human nature, forces of evil and whatever else you should consider being valid reasons to vote in one direction or another.

Whatever you vote, it has to be YOUR conviction and choice.
Free will. Not something you do because a pastor tells you to. Not something you do because it's "the thing to do" and not something you do out of selfishness because your tax bracket gets a break.

America is the leading nation in the world, and as such, it's citizens have a responsibility to grow above their own personal agendas when it comes to election day.

Confusion in debates

I spend time on Facebook. I wake up to 100 notifications each day. People talk to me, even to each others on my profile. I love it, but many times I get put on the spot, and today would be a great example.
Rebecca wrote:
"I was reading this today:
"But the debate... Read More’s most telling passage arrived when Biden welled up in recounting his days as a single father after his first wife and one of his children were killed in a car crash. Palin’s perky response — she immediately started selling McCain as a “consummate maverick” again — was as emotionally disconnected as Michael Dukakis’s notoriously cerebral answer to the hypothetical 1988 debate question about his wife being “raped and murdered.” If, as some feel, Obama is cool, Palin is ice cold. She didn’t even acknowledge Biden’s devastating personal history."

...And I wondered what your take on this was. I personally, felt heartbroken for Biden; being a parent myself, I know I would be devastated if I lost my little lady. I would imagine that you would have similar feelings..."

So I responded:

"First off, the worst thing which ever happened in my life, was my first child being stillborn.
It's something I rarely talk about. No offense, but we have heard this story about Biden's family so much, that something I think, wow, why does this have to constantly be brought up again and again in a Presidential election.
I know that what happened in... Read More my case, is something I usually only tell very close friends.
In a VP debate where you have only so much time to answer each question, I think it's not right to bring this up again.
I mean, let me correct this: Yes, it's fine to bring it up, but you cannot expect this to dominate the debate.
I probably would have acknowledged it more, but then again, I can *somewhat* related, and she was there to do her job and you cannot hold against her after having heard about Biden's tragedy so many times and being prepared to do her job that night, to make a switch quickly. I hope I do not come off as insensitive, because my heart goes out to Mr. Biden I fail to see why we have to pay so much more attention to his tragey than 1,000s of similar ones happening to average people in the U.S. every single year.
This is about the 2nd highest office in the world and just like in a business meeting you don't bring your own personal story up again and again, we were watching the debate to get an idea of ... Read Morewhat that person may be like if elected as vice President."

and immediately felt bad adding:

"OK suddenly I feel bad about this post, because personal stories DO matter, but you cannot hold this against Sarah. I mean there is so much pressure on the candidates, I'm sure if she had a private convo with him, she would have been a lot more sensitive and receptive."

My point is that when you hold something like this against Palin, you have to also look at the fact that in politics you don't really want to bring in issues which are so far away from the cold hard world of elections, because it throws people off to the point where they are adrenalized and cannot simply switch emotions within a second.
Whenever Mr. Biden mentions his tragedy, I stand still. It touches me. And I do not like him as a VP candidate and think he would be an aweful choice.
Yes, Sarah should have stopped and acknowledged what he was saying, and then continue with her regular program.
She didn't. Does it mean she has no feelings? No! It may mean she is under pressure or overwhelmed.

Drug Dealers

The world is full of them.
Costa Rica is even fuller.
There are several reasons for that.
1) Cocaine is cheap in Costa Rica. Unlike smuggling it into the United States, brining it from Columbia to Costa Rica provides little risk. In Columbia it's basically free, so once it gets here, a gram sells for about $10 to a tourist and about $7 to a local.
2) In the places where there is a lot of tourists, the parties last all night.
A high demand gets created by tourists.

Last night's Vice Presidential debate

I have to say I love how Palin presented herself, but have to give credit to Joe Biden who has the impossible task to gain credibility after clearly misrepresenting his own convictions and being unable to fit into the machinery by just being who he is.
Biden has appeal to a certain crowd, but he lacks credibility.
He lacks something people can feel comfortable with.
He is a talker, and he is one of the people who only do well while there is somebody up there they can villify.
In his case it has always been the well-to-do.
McCain to some degree, but more people like Dick Cheney who he likes to blame for the struggle of the middle class.
It does get old, but unless he keeps the anger alive, he has nothing that he can stand for and appears shallow and far too much of a politician.
Sarah Palin is one of us.
Biden can tell us all day that he is one of the common crowd, but he comes off like a stiff. He is probably a very nice guy. But he lacks "global view".
He sees the world thru only his eyes.
The issues close to his heart which he is an expert in do not excuse him not putting the right effort and wisdom into areas more important to humankind.
I believe that McCain will win.
We will have an awesome 4 years ahead of us.
Sarah Palin will do well and become President of the United States as well.
May God bless America!

Character

is what matters. You will elect who you consider credible. I am sorry, but Biden is a snakes oil salesman. He is the kind of person who will believe his own illusions. He may think that he is entitled to tell people what he wants them to believe.
Joe Biden is a swindler at heart. He doesn't care what he told you yesterday.
He will change whatever he has believed in to adjust to his present agenda.
He "sells anger" towards successful Americans.
Joe Biden has as much credibility as a child which has been caught in a lie trying to come up with a new one to cover the old one.
He respects McCain, doesn't respect Obama, and whether or not he has any respect for himself has yet to come out.
