"Multitudes... in the valley of decision: for the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision" Joel 3:14

Common Sense Commentary: "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow ...." Isa. 1:18

Let me first point out the oddity of false and contradictory testimony. Many people, for their own reasons, believe a thing is wrong but say they think it is OK. They may also believe a thing is true but swear it is false. Be that as it may, it is wrong in secular matters but also eternally dangerous in spiritual matters. We dare not lie where people's souls or the word of God are involved. 

If you give up "creation" in favor of evolution, you give up the first chapters of Genesis. If you give that up, you have no certainty the rest of Genesis or the rest of the Old Testament are true either. To give up the Old Testament is to give up Christ because He quoted the Old Testament often, as true, and so did His Apostles and disciples who penned the New Testament: So your unbelief calls into question their belief, honesty and everything they recorded as God gave it to and through them. To do that is to give up any faith in the New Testament and any hope of salvation unless you exchange your denial for faith, because 2 Tim.3:16 says that "All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness ...."

If you find it impossible to believe Christ arose from the dead, it follows that you cannot believe that either you or anyone else shall arise from the dead either. Without acceptance of Christ and his resurrection, you are without hope of eternal life. "And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised. And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins."  1 Cor. 15:14-17.

If you believe that the willful killing of a baby, in or out of the womb, is acceptable to your god, and therefore to you, you deny Genesis 9:5-6, Ex.20:13, Deut.5:17, Psm.139:15-17, Matt.5:21, Rom.13:9 and many other verses of Scripture, and have no sure faith in the rest of the Bible. If you found one rotten chunk of meat in a bowl of stew, you would throw out the entire bowl. If one verse in the Bible were a lie the entire Bible would be unreliable.

If you deny the above verses, you have no true faith in anything else the Bible says because if there is any verse which is not true, maybe it is all untrue and the very foundation of faith is neutralized to you. You either believe it all or you cannot truly believe any of it, because ..."So then faith cometh by hearing ... the word of God." Rom.10:17. Where there is no faith in the word of God, there is no faith in God. 

If you believe homosexuality is OK, you deny both the Old and New Testaments and cannot, therefore, have true faith in a flawed Bible which, then, cannot be God's word because the Bible clearly says it is wrong and an abomination. Gen.19:1-13, Lev.18:21-22, Lev.20:13, Judges 19:22, Rom.1:24-28. If you can read those verses and still believe homosexuality is OK, you do not believe God's word and cannot now be a Christian. Repent, believe all of God's word and accept Christ as your Savior. That is your only hope. RB

You might say you do not like what I say, or the verses I quote, or the way I put it. Well, I'm not too fond of having to quote those verses to my readers either, but I must not, cannot, had better not reject preaching and teaching the entire "counsel of God" .... all of His word, the entire Holy Bible. RB

When Unimaginable, Unthinkable Things Begin To Happen Continuously ... Look Up

Common Sense Commentary: I don't care if the Pope, Billy Graham, an angel or a resurrected Apostle rises up and says, "I have changed my mind, I now believe in evolution not creationism, and I no longer believe God can do everything".  Nothing and no one will ever change my faith in God or His Word. I believe the Creation account in Genesis and that "With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible." Mk.10:27.  God did it as He said He did it.

Here is a response to my post this morning entitled "The Pope Says He Believes In Evolution" And That "God cannot do everything"  This is a saintly Christian lady, I have known for years, who knows her Bible....

"Oh MY Goodness, that is just plain SCARY  that he thinks this!!!!  This world is spiraling out of control…..I am so thankful to know MY FATHER IN HEAVEN has EVERYTHING UNDER CONTROL.  Good article!!"
______________________________________

The scarier thing is that everything else on earth is imploding, as well, in the same unthinkable contradictions .... at the same time. If we don't see an end-times pattern in this, our senses are fried. However, it is not only the prophecies that are coming to pass .....So are His promises. RB

Here are some of God's scripture  promises to keep His promises and some of those promises too:

Romans 4:21   And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform   For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us

  2 Peter 1:4   Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 

  1 John 2:25   And this is the promise that he hath promised useven eternal life. 

  Psalms 30:5   For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. 

 Psalms 34:19   Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all. 

 Isaiah 43:2   When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. 

John 14:1-3   Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. 


 2 Corinthians 1:20   For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. 

Seek God's face and His Word before you seek men's opinions which contradict His Word. RB

The Pope Says He "Believes In Evolution" And That God Is Not "Able To Do Everything"... Strange Indeed

Common Sense Commentary: The final straw. So now we have the leader of the Catholic world saying he believes in evolution and that God is not a miracle worker.


Pope Francis may believe in evolution, but 42 percent of Americans do not
The Washington Post  October 29 
Pope Francis amassed international popularity through stunning and progressive statements that put him at odds with the conservative wing of the Catholic Church. On Tuesday, he similarly put himself at odds with a significant portion of Americans by saying he believed in evolution, not creationism — an idea 42 percent of Americans espouse.
“When we read about creation in Genesis, we run the risk of imagining God was a magician, with a magic wand able to do everything. But that is not so,” Francis said. “He created human beings and let them develop according to the internal laws that he gave to each one so they would reach their fulfillment.” He added: “Evolution in nature is not inconsistent with the notion of creation, because evolution requires the creation of beings that evolve.” (What kind of "beings"? Amoeba, worms. single cell somethings? That is not what the Bible says. "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness ....So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them." Genesis 1:26-27. "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Genesis 2:7. Obviously the Pope does not believe the Bible record.  RB)
Compare that statement with one in this June Gallup poll: It found 42 percent of Americans believe God created humans “in their present form 10,000 years ago,” disputing scientific consensus that humanity slowly evolved from primates over millions of years.
Despite the deluge of headlines the pope’s comments produced, little was new about his comments. The Catholic Church has been much less conservative on evolution than many Americans, who contend God created Adam from dust and Eve from Adam’s rib. (And, yes, that is exactly what the Bible records. See "dust" in the above verse and Adam's rib in Genesis 2:22 "And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man."  (Clearly, if the Pope or anyone else, who does not believe these verses, does not believe the Bible is God's word and are therefore, according to the Bible, not Christians. The Holy Bible is the only authority of God, Christ, creation, prophecy, heaven, hell and eternity we have. If you do not have the Bible you are no different than Muslims, Buddhists or anyone of a thousand other religious beliefs. RB)
Gallup started asking the question in 1982, when 44 percent adhered to creationism — a rate that rose to 47 percent in 1994 before falling to 42 percent today. “There is little indication of a sustained downward trend in the proportion of the U.S. population who hold a creationist view of human origins,” Gallup said in a release. “At the same time, the percentage of Americans who adhere to a strict secularist viewpoint — that humans evolved over time, with God having no part in this process — has doubled since 1999.” Meanwhile, the percentage of Americans who believe humans evolved over time, but with God’s help, fell from 38 percent in 1982 to 31 percent today.
A final word .... The final authority: RB
"Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.  Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.  It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him: If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself." 2 Tim.2:9.

Listen Up America: Out Of The Smoke, Crime And Political Corruption Of Chicago....Truth Speaks For A Change.

Common Sense Commentary: There is an awaking, an arising, a turning and a changing of honest black voters in places like Chicago and Detroit. Within their ranks are some of the most courageous and determined Americans to change the system which has enslaved us all to some extent, but blacks most of all. There is no movement in this country which has greater potential to defeat the so called Liberals who are in fact greedy, self serving politicians, union bosses, Hollywood and the major news media, than this one. These black Americans have the real answer to racism in America. I have no more respect for anyone in this country than I have for them. God bless and protect them as they speak up for right and truth. RB

Modern Science...Super Computers... Artificial Intelligence are now Compatible To "The Image Of The Beast"

Common Sense Commentary: Be sure to read the three scientific articles, on this subject, at the bottom of the page. RB


Elon Musk: ‘With artificial intelligence we are summoning the demon.’

From The Washington Post

Tesla chief executive Elon Musk warned that AI, Artificial Intelligence could be our biggest existential threat and believes there should be some regulatory oversight at the national and international level, while speaking at the MIT Aeronautics and Astronautics department’s Centennial Symposium Friday. (MIT Dept. of Aeronautics and Astronautics)
Tesla chief executive Elon Musk has warned about artificial intelligence before, tweeting that it could be more dangerous than nuclear weapons. Speaking Friday at the MIT Aeronautics and Astronautics department’s Centennial Symposium, Musk called it our biggest existential threat:
"I think we should be very careful

about artificial intelligence. If I

were to guess like what our biggest

existential threat is, it’s probably 

that. So we need to be very careful

with the artificial intelligence.

Increasingly scientists think there

should be some regulatory

oversight maybe at the national

and international level, just to

make sure that we don’t do

something very foolish. With

artificial intelligence we are

summoning the demon. In all

those stories where there’s the

guy with the pentagram and the

holy water, it’s like yeah he’s

sure he can control the demon.

(But it) Didn’t work out." 
Musk was so caught up on artificial intelligence that he missed the audience’s next question. “Sorry can you repeat the question, I was just sort of thinking about the AI thing for a second,” he said.
Musk spoke expansively for over an hour, at one point even asking a MIT student what his favorite sci-fi books were. He left to a standing ovation. You can watch the entire interview here.
________________________________
My Comment

When I read what Musk said about high tech scientists "summoning the demon", I had to wonder if he knew what he was saying, in a spiritual sense. The word summon has synonyms such as conjure, convoke, invite and call up. The Greek word "demon" or "daimon", in its various forms is translated in the New Testament as "devil". So Musk was simply saying that they may be "inviting the devil" among us by their "creation" of an all powerful, super human, artificial intelligence combination of human tissue and high tech computer technology.
You wouldn't think this could be done, but who would ever have thought they could create exact clones of animals and humans through means other than sperm.

When I first learned of super computers, I had to wonder if this would somehow lead to the fulfillment of the "image of the beast" in the Revelation.  At the world bank, in Europe, which is built like the Tower Of Babel, and is in fact called the Tower Of Babel,   they are working on a computer program which is so immense and all inclusive it is being called a digital Tower Of Babel. Whether this program can also become the "image of the beast" or not, time will tell. At any rate, here are some of the verses in The Revelation which seem compatible with "summoning the demon".

Revelation 13:1   And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. (He assumes a holy title and name which belong to God alone. Blasphemy)

  Revelation 13:2   And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon (Satan) gave him his power (super human Power), and his seat (world renowned  Position), and great authority (Political authority). This beast is the figurehead of Satan incorporated in a political system and represented by one of its "heads" (rulers).

  Revelation 13:3   And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast(The beast healed of terminal type wound).

  Revelation 13:4   And they worshipped the dragon (Satan) which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him? (This beast's survival appears to be all powerful and irresistible).

  Revelation 13:11   And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. (This beast takes to himself the appearance of the Lamb of God, Jesus Christ, but is a diabolical  impostor, Antichrist)

  Revelation 13:12   And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast (The figurehead first ruler of the system), whose deadly wound was healed. 

  Revelation 13:14   And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. 
I believe this "image of the beast" is a futuristic, super high tech computer and program which will contain every name and information of every person on earth in conjunction with all of the world's vital information, facts of international civics, military, medical, science, media, human necessities, distribution and world analysis which can answer every question, every problem and control any resistance.  This "system" may be programed within the form of a robot, part human, part machine and contain the plot, plan, preferences and politics of the Antichrist.
  
Revelation 13:15   And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. (This is a key verse in understanding who or what the "image of the beast" is. At no time in history, since the beginning of time has this been possible. It is now happening).

  Revelation 13:17   And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 

  Revelation 13:18   Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. (This will become obvious at some point in the future. There is no way, as yet, that this person can be identified.)

 Revelation 14:9   And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, 

Revelation 14:11   And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. 

  Revelation 15:2   And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire: and them that had gotten the victory over the beast, and over his image, and over his mark, and over the number of his name, stand on the sea of glass, having the harps of God. 


Harvard creates cyborg flesh 
that’s half man, half machine 



These cyborg tissues are half living cells, half electronics. 
As far as the cells are concerned, they’re just normal cells 
that behave normally — but the electronic side actually acts 
as a sensor network, allowing a computer to interface directly 
with the cells. In the case of cyborg heart tissue, the resear- 
chers have already used the embedded nanowires to measure 
the contractions (heart rate) of the cells.
To create cyborg flesh, you start with a three-dimensional
scaffold that encourages cells to grow around them. These
scaffolds are generally made of collagen, which makes up the
connective tissue in almost every animal. The Harvard
engineers basically took normal collagen, and wove nanowires
and transistors into the matrix to create nanoelectric scaffolds
(nanoES). The neurons, heart cells, muscle, and blood vessels
were then grown as normal, creating cyborg tissue with a built-in
sensor network.
So far the Havard team has mostly grown rat tissues, but they 
have also succeeded in growing a 1.5-centimeter (0.6in) cyborg 
human blood vessel. They’ve also only used the nanoelectric 
scaffolds to read data from the cells — but according to lead 
researcherCharles Lieber, the next step is to find a way of 
talking to the individual cells, to “wire up tissue and communicate 
with it in the same way a biological system does.”

Connecting Engineering Science 

with Medical Science

Tissue engineering and nScrypt's Computer Aided Biology/
Computer Aided Machining (CAB/CAM) technology are the
result of connecting the engineering sciences with medical
science. With the natural extension of the CAB/CAM
technology, biocompatible, engineered whole organs will
be realizable in years and not decades. CAB/CAM will
permit developing curative medical treatments and
biological constructs — engineered neo-organs that can
be used to detect, prevent, and cure diseases.
Regenerative medicine is the new frontier, unlocking
the code of how the body repairs itself. Tissues within
the body are complex structures of multiple cell types
and extracellular matrix (ECM) within a dynamic three-
dimensional microenvironment. The specific architecture
of the cells and matrix within a tissue is important in
directing numerous biological functions, such as tissue
development, organ formation, wound healing, and
homeostasis. We imagine being able to lay down cells
and matrix in a defined three-dimensional architecture,
triggering a response to repair a diseased kidney or a
failing heart in the same way that this would happen in
natural biological systems.


This Neuroscientist Is Trying to 

Upload His Entire Brain to a 

Computer

December 18, 2014
by Georgia Rose

Humans, if you hadn't already noticed, have stopped 
evolving. As David Attenboroughrecently reminded us
our species is the first—by our free will—to remove itself 
from the process of natural selection, therefore stunting 
evolution. That, accompanied bySteven Hawking and 
Elon Musk's theories that robots will supersede human 
intelligence and become our biggest existential threat, 
paints a pretty bleak vision of the future.
Neuroscientist Randal Koene has the answer. Instead 
of allowing robots to become our cold, lifeless overlords, 
why don't we just become partially robotic ourselves? 
Koene is currently working on whole brain emulation, 
the process of being able to upload our minds to a 
computer. By mapping the brain, figuring out its 
mechanisms and replicating this activity in code, 
humans could—theoretically—live on indefinitely.

The Body May Die ... But The Spirit Never Dies

Common Sense Commentary: The first time I heard that someone who had died, and was resuscitated, who then told of an after death experience, I was skeptical. But after years of such testimony, given of similar experiences, I changed my attitude to one of ..... "There is nothing in the scripture which refutes the possibility of such experiences", especially when a person who died, then awakes to immediately tell of what they saw and heard.  My years of experience, as a pastor, dealing with people who were sick unto death convinced me that people seldom lie when they are dying or reviving from near death. The reality of death and then the idea of answering to God, sobers, humbles and encourages honesty. I am convinced, as the Bible indicates, that though the body may die, the spirit of the dead person lives on for eternity. God "formed" or molded man out of dirt, in His own image, but then "breathed into his nostrils the breath of life". "And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul." Gen. 2:7.  
The breath of God is eternal and the spirits of those created in his image are also eternal and live on after the body is completely lifeless. So if that body is in the process of passing from life to death, it is not unreasonable that the spirit is also in process of leaving the body and possibly hovering near-by til the body is totally dead, at which time the spirit departs the scene and arrives  at its eternal destiny in a split second. That is the only way I can understand the possible credibility of such experiences in the light of  2 Cor.5:6-8 "Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:  (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)  We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord."  
And then there is the first and second resurrection of dead bodies... but that's another subject. RB


Life after death? Largest-ever study provides evidence that 'out of body' and 'near-death' experiences may be real

Adam Withnall in The Independent



There is scientific evidence to suggest that life can continue after death, according to the largest ever medical study carried out on the subject.

A team based in the UK has spent the last four years seeking out cardiac arrest patients to analyse their experiences, and found that almost 40 per cent of survivors described having some form of “awareness” at a time when they were declared clinically dead.

Experts currently believe that the brain shuts down within 20 to 30 seconds of the heart stopping beating – and that it is not possible to be aware of anything at all once that has happened.

But scientists in the new study said they heard compelling evidence that patients experienced real events for up to three minutes after this had happened – and could recall them accurately once they had been resuscitated.

Dr Sam Parnia, an assistant professor at the State University of New York and a former research fellow at the University of Southampton who led the research, said that he previously believed that patients who described near-death experiences were only relating hallucinatory events.


One man, however, gave a “very credible” account of what was going on while doctors and nurses tried to bring him back to life – and says that he felt he was observing his resuscitation from the corner of the room.
Speaking to The Telegraph about the evidence provided by a 57-year-old social worker in Southampton, Dr Parnia said: “We know the brain can’t function when the heart has stopped beating.
“But in this case, conscious awareness appears to have continued for up to three minutes.
“The man described everything that had happened in the room, but importantly, he heard two bleeps from a machine that makes a noise at three minute intervals. So we could time how long the experienced lasted for.
“He seemed very credible and everything that he said had happened to him had actually happened.”
Dr Parnia’s study involved 2,060 patients from 15 hospitals in the UK, US and Austria, and has been published in the journal Resuscitation.

Of those who survived, 46 per cent experienced a broad range of mental recollections, nine per cent had experiences compatible with traditional definitions of a near-death experience and two per cent exhibited full awareness with explicit recall of “seeing” and “hearing” events – or out-of-body experiences.
Dr Parnia said that the findings of the study as a whole suggested that “the recalled experience surrounding death now merits further genuine investigation without prejudice”.
Dr Jerry Nolan, editor-in-chief of the journal which published the research, said: “The researchers are to be congratulated on the completion of a fascinating study that will open the door to more extensive research into what happens when we die.”

"So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God." Romans 14:12

Common Sense Commentary: One of the most unbecoming and unreasonable human traits is the inclination people have, when they make mistakes or get into trouble, is to blame someone else. This human tendency to point the blame finger away from ourselves has been going on since Adam and Eve. "And (the serpent) said unto the woman ...." Gen.3:1.  "And the woman said unto the serpent.."
Gen.3:2.  "And the serpent said unto the woman ..." Gen.3:4. And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat. ....And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him,.... Hast thou eaten of the tree, whereof I commanded thee that thou shouldest not eat? ....And the man said, The woman whom thou gavest to be with me, she gave me of the tree, and I did eat.  And the LORD God said unto the woman, What is this that thou hast done? And the woman said, The serpent beguiled me, and I did eat." Gen. 3:6-13.

I'm sure, at this point, the serpent turned to see who he could blame ... but nobody else was there. 


This human encounter with temptation and sin, which ended in the man blaming "the woman" and God Himself, who gave "the woman" to him in the first place, is typically human. When Adam turned and blamed "the woman" ... and God too, for giving her to him, the woman turned and blamed the serpent for "beguiling" her.

Please notice that after both Eve and then Adam had disobeyed God and eaten of the forbidden tree, God did not "call unto Eve" but He "Called unto Adam" to give account of himself.

The fact is, the man was primarily to blame because God chose to put the man in charge of his own household to protect his wife and children from evil influences, and Adam failed to put a stop to the conversation Eve had with Satan, the serpent.  It is in error to say Adam was not there to take charge and protect his wife. Verse 6 says, he was right there with her ..."....she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat."   I totally understand their not wanting to accept the blame for what they each did. Its bad enough to blame others for our failures and sins .... but Adam  not only blamed Eve, he even blamed God....."The woman whom thou gavest to be with me...."
It is quite common for men who come in drunk to blame their wives and wives to say, "The devil made me do it", but God says, 
"Every one of us shall give account of himself to God..." 
Rom.14:12.  No matter how unbearable your wife or husband or mother or father might have been, it will not justify us before God to blame others for our sins and failures. Every husband, wife, father, mother, friend and employer .... makes some unjust decisions, mistakes, failures and even sins in some of the things they do or say. They will answer to God for all of those things, but YOU will also answer for your own sins .... not them. 

It has come to my attention many times that those who are quickest to blame others for their sins and failures in life are the same ones who have, by their own actions, caused many others to stumble and sin against God. 

As someone once reminded us all; when we point our blame finger at others, we are pointing three blame fingers back at ourselves. RB

We Have A Dictator ! Vote Early! Vote Now!

Common Sense Commentary: If this President declares, by Executive Order, that illegal aliens are, by his decree, citizens of the United States .... we have a dictatorship. Not only that, but under that action
the case will be tied up in court for years, and in the mean time, those illegal aliens will have bogus documentation which will allow them to vote in the next presidential election. You don't have to guess how most of them will vote..... Who has done the most for them, financially?.... Democrats. Even if the courts eventually ruled that his Executive Order was unconstitutional, the damage would already be done. An illegitimate Democrat President would already be in office, District Judges and Supreme Court Justices would already be appointed, legislation would already be in effect and on and on.  It could never be fully corrected and our freedoms would be down the tube with another Democrat dictator.

Order for millions of blank work permits, green cards raising amnesty concerns

By Kenric Ward

A government print order for as many as 34 million blank work permits and green cards is raising concern that the Obama administration could be preparing an executive order for amnesty after the November election.
An online solicitation by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigrations Services seeks vendors that can produce a minimum 4 million cards per year for five years, and 9 million in the early stages.
If the numbers reported by Breitbart.com on Monday are correct, they are vastly larger than official estimates of 12 million illegal residents in this country.
“There aren’t enough federal employees from here to Pluto to do adequate background checks on 34 million,” said Bob Dane, spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform.
Dane told Watchdog.org that President Obama appears “to be getting his ducks in a row” before legalizing illegal residents by executive fiat.
“It’s another petulant display of contempt of Congress,” he said.
A USCIS official told MailOnline the solicitation for green cards was published “in case the president makes the move we think he will.”
But the official said the agency is not yet committed to buying the materials.
