While I realize my blog was created to share fun stories about my children and husband, the problem is, the cares of this world are becoming so great, it's quite hard to concentrate on their adorable antics.
As everyone I know either loses their job or stands on the brink, I find myself wondering what the real answer is. I know that I'm opinionated and tend to brush off the left wing ideas with out a glance, but this situation is not just dire but will define the future of our country. My reason for being so vehemnently against the propaganda that Obama puts out there is not selfish. I feel that so many people voted for him because they thought he would fix the economy. I still don't understand their train of thought but regardless, it's a pretty selfish motive when we as a country have so much on the line, both morally and financially. We have a president that thinks the Constitution is antiquated and needs to be rewritten. This in and of itself is terrifying to me. Take it a step further and look at what just one week in office has brought us. He has announced that he needs to grow government in order to save the economy. In spite of the dire need for a bailout he signs away to give money to organizations that offer abortions all over the world. Great, we aren't just guilty in this country, we're guilty abroad as well. Why do I think that growing government is a bad thing? Because it strips us of our freedom, entreprenureal spirit and creativity. He will tax us more and we will become little robots. When government gets to the point that they think a small body of selfishly motivated politicians can make decisions for us better than we can, we're not on the brink of socialism, we're there. The fatal flaw of socialism is the sinful nature of man. I don't have an eternal fear about this. I know that someday I will cast aside these worries and join my savior in heaven. I just want to let go, knowing I did what I could to preserve the religious freedom for my children that I enjoyed. So, I hope that we can join together and possibly even create a new political party that respects freedom, understands the proper role of government and has the proper respect for the sanctity of life in the womb. Now is the time to act AND pray.
