The Best Of The Best Of The Best Video ... Black Fathers Matter
Common Sense Commentary: There are still a few people in America who have not allowed Washington propaganda, through the News Media, to cloud their thinking. We should thank God for honesty when honesty is politically incorrect and hedged, trimmed up, watered down and apologized for. Honesty spoken openly, clearly and boldly by men and women of character who love truth more than peace and a clear conscience above acceptance by their own family and ethnic group. Here is such a man of integrity and courage. This man is my brother. Those who would denigrate him are not. Thanks to Dennis Prager for making this available.

Muslims Say Obama Is A Shiite Muslim As Is Iran
All the evidence verifies he is Muslim,
none indicates he is Christian ....
Common Sense Commentary: It takes one to know one. It takes a thief to catch a thief. Common phrases usually used as a retort to an accusation or criticism. Most of these old adages have at least some element in them. Committed Christians easily recognize other Committed Christian. But a person who wants to make a "religious" impression on them is just as easily recognize as a counterfeit. How? In some cases it is spiritual discernment. But most often it is something less.... they do not know the nuances, key words or right applications. The same is true with a doctor recognizing another doctor, a plumber another plumber, a Mormon another Mormon. Muslims recognize other Muslims, even the particular type of Muslim.
'Yes, Obama is Really a Muslim,' Claim The Muslims...? From the Daily Wire News
Despite the media's concerted effort to declare emphatically that Barack Obama is a devout, practicing Christian, many still believe that behind closed doors Obama is actually a Muslim, or at least more sympathetic to Muslims than Christians. To the great disappointment of those who'd like to blame all Obama conspiracy theories on the "bitter clingers," claims that "Obama is a Muslim" are perhaps most persistent among a surprising group: Muslims in the Middle East.
A 2015 CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll asked Americans if they knew what Obama's religion was. "Is he Protestant, Catholic, Jewish, Mormon, Muslim, something else, or not religious?" asked the pollsters. The results were eye-opening. Over six years into his presidency, a majority of Americans doubted that Obama believed what he publicly said he believed. Only 39 percent said he was a Protestant/Christian, while 29 percent said they believed he was a Muslim (43 percent of Republicans, 15 percent of Democrats, and 29 percent of Independents). (That difference in itself says volumes about the perceptions of Republicans vs. Democrats. RB)
But the theory that Obama is a Muslim is not just an American phenomenon. The Washington Post explains that "Muslim" Obama theories "have mutated as they traveled abroad, adapting in unexpected ways to fit regional arguments." In the Middle East, a "persistent and widespread" theory is that Obama is not just a Muslim, but a particular brand of Muslim: Shiite.
The theory seems to have gained even more traction as of late due to the Obama administration's unflinching devotion to Iran, resulting in Sunni leaders in the region blaming Obama's supposed religious affiliation for his political biases.
"This week, as the Obama administration announced that it was lifting sanctions on Iran as a result of a U.S. led nuclear deal with Tehran reached in July, Dhahi Khalfan Tamim, the head of general security for the emirate of Dubai, suggested that Obama's 'Shiite roots' had helped him get elected in a bid to bring the United States and Iran closer," writes The Washington Post.
This Iranian Deal Is Getting Worse All The time. If nothing else, the popular theory among Sunnis points to "persistent and widespread" frustration and bewilderment over Obama's inexplicable determination to empower Iran at the expense of (former) U.S. allies in the region.

So how can we respond to these Liberal Socialists and ignorant free stuff idiots who voted this Muslim, Counterfeit Christian, into office and turned a mad dog loose on our beloved country? Don't vote for any Democrat or establishment Republican. Don't let Hillary fool you into thinking that because she and Obama don't like each other, she is not like him. 95% of Obama voters will vote for her because they are all of the same Liberal Socialist Politics.

Muslims Consistently Expose Their Intolerance, Hatred And Rear Ends
towards us and their heads and hearts toward Mecca
Common Sense Commentary: After the mass slaughter in Orlando, maybe America and the world will finally wake up to the Muslim Trojan Horse strategy? If so, "waking up" demands that we "follow up", "speak up" and "act up" if our President and Congress won't finally "stand up" to Muslim terrorism.
Even Snopes admits the open letter below is true and correctly attributed. But the Main Street News Networks won't touch it.
It seems to be a typical case of immature, fanatical, Muslim students who take it upon themselves to scream their insult and objection at a little isolated cartoon in Denmark long since forgotten by rational people. So they decide to raise a public protest on the campus of Michigan State University to stir the anger of fellow Muslims and teach non-Muslims a lesson. Their ridiculous effort was far more offensive to one of the Michigan State's professors, of Mechanical Engineering, who sent an e-mail to the Muslim Student's Association expressing his own First Amendment Free Speech.
Professor Indrek Wichman wrote the following....
Dear Moslem Association:
As a professor of Mechanical Engineering here at MSU I intend to protest your protest. I am offended not by cartoons, but by more mundane things like beheadings of civilians, cowardly attacks on public buildings, suicide murders, murders of Catholic priests (the latest in Turkey!), burnings of Christian churches, the continued persecution of Coptic Christians in Egypt, the imposition of Sharia law on non-Muslims, the rapes of Scandinavian girls and women (called "whores" in your culture), the murder of film directors in Holland, and the rioting and looting in Paris France.
This is what offends me, a soft-spoken person and academic, and many, many, many of my colleagues. I counsel you dissatisfied, aggressive, brutal, and uncivilized slave-trading Moslems to be very aware of this as you proceeded with your infantile "protests." If you do not like the values of the West — see the 1st Amendment — you are free to leave.
I hope for God's sake that most of you choose that option.
Please return to your ancestral homelands and build them up yourselves instead of troubling Americans.
Cordially,
I. S. Wichman, Professor of Mechanical Engineering
My Comment:
Professor Wichman tapped the "send" button and his email sailed across the Internet and hit the protesting young Muslims as if it were a ballistic missile and they were innocent kindergarten children. Their retaliation was more explosive than the good professors comments. They demanded Dr. Wichman be fired and mandatory diversity training be enforced on all faculty and a seminar be held on hate speech and discrimination for all freshmen. The Michigan chapter of CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) was notified and demanded retribution. Apparently neither CAIR nor the students recognized Dr. Wichman's Constitutional right to his own free speech in answer to theirs. As usual, this Trojan Horse full of Muslims only recognize their own right to free speech but nobody elses who disagrees with them. They don't seem to see the double standard and contradiction of their inconsistent attitude. They can dish it out ... boy can they dish it out, but they can't even take a two inch square, one line cartoon in Denmark when they are in the U.S.
How long will it take for the rest of America to finally tell Muslims, "That's enough". Maybe somebody will start a movement called the "Wichman Patriots Fed-Up With The 'Ham' in Muhammad". But that might cause a World War.
At least for now the University is standing its ground and will neither punish Dr. Wichman nor "publicly" condemn his remarks. Pressure is probably being put on him relinquish his right to free speech and embrace Political Correctness. since he later said he if he knew his e-mail would cause such reaction, and be made public, he wouldn't have used the same strong language". I liked him better before he recanted that tidbit. What the leadership is missing in today's America has been revealed in Donald Trump's loose cannon, verbal machine gun rhetoric. The average American is starving for some outspoken, shoot from the shoulder, honest, all American attacks against this sort of intolerable nonsense. RB

"Minutemen" And "Sons of Liberty" Were The Seed Of The 2nd Amendment Militia
Just last night a lone Muslim terrorist walked into an Orlando, gay nightclub, murdered 50 and wounded 58 without a single one of them able to defend themselves or the 108 he shot. Under our 2nd Amendment, probably every one in that club, except the Muslim terrorist should have been qualified to get a carry license. But he, a security guard, known by the FBI to be associated with terrorists, wasn't screened out by an inept Administration who blames the guns he carried but allowed him to have them. THERE, my friends is the problem.
I am putting this blog post out three weeks early, before July 4, Independence Day, so that you can pass it along to your email list and they to theirs and maybe it will reach warp speed by July 4, 2016, exactly 240 years after July 4, 1776.
Common Sense Commentary: U.S. civilians are the largest, armed Militia in the world, larger than any organized military or armed citizen militia of any nation. This numerical fact is only true in the United States and is made possible by the Second Amendment to our U.S. Constitution. This Amendment was added to the Bill Of Rights of the Constitution just after our successful, armed rebellion and revolution against the King of England, NOT primarily for the right to hunt or even for the right of self protection, but for the right to protect our freedom from an overbearing, power grabbing government or dictator. At the end of that long, bloody war, the importance of an armed citizenry was more obvious than ever before. This right is said to be the most important of the Bill Of Rights because it protects all the other rights.
When our forefathers declared U.S. independence from England, the first few lines of The American Declaration Of Independence, on July 4, 1776, were ....
The original American Colonies, our Founding Fathers, and writers of our U.S. Constitution and Bill Of Rights, were subjects of the King of England and second class citizens in that they had no representation, as did the English, in their Governance. Americans were heavily taxed and treated as vassals and serfs by the King. It was this untenable situation which led America to openly rebel against our English masters with our Declaration Of Independence from England, and the Revolutionary War. That was an internal, Civil War, by American citizens, against our tyrannical English occupiers who maintained a strong, organized army and bureaucracy here to enforce the King's edicts and collect taxes. And contrary to the U.S. pacifists on the Liberal Left, our forefathers did not violate the biblical principle of co-operation and recognition of legal, just, civil government. In today's terms, it would be like Texas or American Conservatives and Christians rebelling against our Leftest political and bureaucratic rulers in Washington D.C. who violate our National, Constitutional Law and seek to subjugate and enslave us. If there was justification for the American Revolutionary War, which won our freedom, including freedom of religion, then there might also be justification for another Revolution against another tyrant, or Socialistic, or Communistic dictatorship arising in Washington D.C. It happened to the Colonists and dozens of nations since then. Let me be clear; I am not proposing one, but that time could come when revolution is preferable to slavery under a dictatorial government .... into which direction we are now headed. The American News Media lauds and justifies the American Revolution and vilifies the English King, but also Lauds the villainous tactics of our now increasingly dictatorial Government and vilifies those who stand against losing our freedoms. This kind of double standard has become the daily diet of those who follow the major "news" media. "As for me, give me liberty or give me death". Those were the words of a "Colonist" planter, attorney and politician named Patrick Henry just before the Revolutionary War. Many other freedom loving Americans felt the same way and took up arms against their tyrannical King. They called themselves Minute Men and Sons of Liberty and went to war for freedom.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." 2nd Amendment of the U.S. Bill of Rights, U.S, Constitution.
The word Militia , according to
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, means .....
A militia generally is an army or other fighting unit that is composed of non-professional fighters, citizens of a nation or subjects of a state or government who can be called upon to enter a combat situation, as opposed to a professional force of regular, full-time military personnel, or historically, members of the warrior nobility class (e.g., knights or samurai). Unable to hold their own against properly trained and equipped professional forces, it is common for militias to engage in guerrilla warfare or defense instead of being used in open attacks and offensive actions.
Minutemen were private colonists who independently organized to form well-prepared militia companies self-trained in weaponry, tactics and military strategies from the American colonial partisan militia during the American Revolutionary War. They were also known for being ready in a minute's notice. They provided a highly mobile, rapidly deployed force that allowed the colonies to respond immediately to war threats, hence the name.
The minutemen were among the first to fight in the American Revolution. Their teams constituted about a quarter of the entire militia. Generally younger and more mobile, they served as part of a network for early response. Minuteman and Sons of Liberty member Paul Revere were among those who spread the news that the British Regulars (soldiers) were coming out from Boston. Revere was captured before completing his mission when the British marched toward the arsenal in Concord to confiscate the weapons and ammunition that were stored there.
The term has also been applied to various later United States civilian-based paramilitary forces to recall the success and patriotism of the originals.

Baseball's Texas Rangers Pick North Florida Christian High School Pitcher, Cole Ragans
Common Sense Commentary: This is the High School on the Campus of North Florida Baptist Church in Tallahassee, Florida. I founded the church in 1963 as Temple Baptist Church (name changed later) and pastored that ministry for nearly 30 years. Dr. Randy Ray is the present pastor. We had a full athletic program, band, the second best Computer Science program in the nation and the best computer teacher, Norm Pettus, heading the department. We were one of the first High Schools in the U.S. with a computer program in its curriculum. We had an exceptional percentage of graduates who went on to college. Our graduates are now in the top levels of Computer Tech, Business, and every other profession ... including Christian Ministry. Add to that some of the very best Coaches of a full slate of athletics. (7 sports).
From our playing fields arose several athletes who went on to college and then to the pros. I think this young man, reported on below, is the first graduate we have had who is going directly from High School into a pro-team schedule. Our schools did have an advantage in sports in that our boy's and girl's teams both played sports, together, from Kindergarten through High School and developed as a team unit from four or five years old with the same kids all the way to H.S. graduation. But NFCS baseball's secret weapon is long standing (30 year) coach Mike Posey coaching a comparatively small school into the big leagues in High School baseball. See it here http://www.nflschool.org/boys-baseball.html
North Florida Christian School has always had the finest educational and athletic programs available and we have the alumni to prove it. Who was behind all that success .... a superb faculty and super superb Principles at every level, Kindergarten through High School.
Why do I report on one of NFCS's athletes being picked up by the Texas Rangers? Their stadium is astones baseball's throw from where I live ..... about 10 minutes away .... and in Texas. Another reason is that our twin sons, Rex and Ron, won a Little League Championship, Rex as pitcher and Ron as catcher back in Tallahassee many years ago. Ron sent me the article which his daughter Julie, who married another baseball champion, sent him. So you see, its all in the family.... the Old Temple Baptist Family. So, all you Templeites, our efforts were not in vain; The harvest continues to flourish till Jesus comes. RB

A Vietnamese Immigrant's Gratitude To America And You Nam Vets
Common Sense Commentary: Our American Soldiers, Marines, Airmen and Sailors have sewn the seeds of freedom around the world, in dozens of wars. Some were less justified than others, but, I think all of those seeds have, in some way, sprung up as a testimony to the world that America, at least in the past, has always been a friend of freedom and an enemy of tyranny. To you Vietnam Vets who paid the price and were betrayed back home by Politicians, beatniks and the news media, your sacrifices were not all in vain. The Korean War slowed the spread of Communism down but you Vietnam Vets stopped it in its tracks. And while Viet Nam has been moving toward freedom ever since, the U.S. is moving toward Communism.
Here is just one example of what you Nam Vet's sacrifices bought. RB
Vietnamese Immigrant Says Thanks
It looks like you Viet Vets did some good after all!
On Saturday, July 24th, 2010 the town of Prescott Valley, AZ, hosted a Freedom Rally. Quang Nguyen was asked to speak on his experience of coming to America and what it means. He spoke the following in dedication to all Vietnam Veterans. Thought you might enjoy hearing what he had to say:
35 years ago, if you were to tell me that I am going to stand up here speaking to a couple thousand patriots, in English, I'd laugh at you. Man, every morning I wake up thanking God for putting me and my family in the greatest country on earth. I just want you all to know that the American dream does exist and I am living the American dream. I was asked to speak to you about my experience as a first generation Vietnamese-American, but I'd rather speak to you as an American.
If you hadn't noticed, I am not white and I feel pretty comfortable with my people. I am a proud U.S. citizen and here is my proof. It took me 8 years to get it, waiting in endless lines, but I got it, and I am very proud of it.
I still remember the images of the Tet offensive in 1968, I was six years old. Now you might want to question how a 6-year-old boy could remember anything. Trust me, those images can never be erased. I can't even imagine what it was like for young American soldiers, 10,000 miles away from home, fighting on my behalf.
35 years ago, I left South Vietnam for political asylum. The war had ended. At the age of 13, I left with the understanding that I may or may not ever get to see my siblings or parents again. I was one of the first lucky 100,000 Vietnamese allowed to come to the U.S. Somehow, my family and I were reunited 5 months later, amazingly, in California. It was a miracle from God.
If you haven't heard lately that this is the greatest country on earth, I am telling you that right now. It was the freedom and the opportunities presented to me that put me here with all of you tonight. I also remember the barriers that I had to overcome every step of the way. My high school counselor told me that I cannot make it to college due to my poor communication skills. I proved him wrong. I finished college. You see, all you have to do is to give this little boy an opportunity and encourage him to take and run with it. Well, I took the opportunity and here I am.
This person standing tonight in front of you could not exist under a socialist/communist environment. By the way, if you think socialism is the way to go, I am sure many people here will chip in to get you a one-way ticket out of here. And if you didn't know, the only difference between socialism and communism is an AK-47 aimed at your head. That was my experience.
In 1982, I stood with a thousand new immigrants, reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and listening to the National Anthem for the first time as an American. To this day, I can't remember anything sweeter and more patriotic than that moment in my life.
Fast forwarding, somehow I finished high school, finished college, and like any other goofball 21 year old kid, I was having a great time with my life. I had a nice job and a nice apartment in Southern California. In some way and somehow, I had forgotten how I got here and why I was here.
One day I was at a gas station, I saw a veteran pumping gas on the other side of the island. I don't know what made me do it, but I walked over and asked if he had served in Vietnam. He smiled and said yes. I shook and held his hand. The grown man began to well up. I walked away as fast as I could and at that very moment, I was emotionally rocked. This was a profound moment in my life. I knew something had to change in my life. It was time for me to learn how to be a good citizen. It was time for me to give back.
You see, America is not just a place on the map, it isn't just a physical location. It is an ideal, a concept. And if you are an American, you must understand the concept, you must accept this concept, and most importantly, you have to fight and defend this concept. This is about Freedom and not free stuff. And that is why I am standing up here.
Brothers and sisters, to be a real American, the very least you must do is to learn English and understand it well. In my humble opinion, you cannot be a faithful patriotic citizen if you can't speak the language of the country you live in. Take this document of 46 pages - last I looked on the Internet, there wasn't a Vietnamese translation of the U.S. Constitution. It took me a long time to get to the point of being able to converse and until this day, I still struggle to come up with the right words. It's not easy, but if it's too easy, it's not worth doing.
Before I knew this 46-page document, I learned of the 500,000 Americans who fought for this little boy. I learned of the 58,000 names scribed on the black wall at the Vietnam Memorial. You are my heroes. You are my founders.
At this time, I would like to ask all the Vietnam veterans to please stand. I thank you for my life. I thank you for your sacrifices, and I thank you for giving me the freedom and liberty I have today. I now ask all veterans, firefighters, and police officers, to please stand. On behalf of all first generation immigrants, I thank you for your services and may God bless you all.

Vietnamese Immigrant Says Thanks
It looks like you Viet Vets did some good after all!
On Saturday, July 24th, 2010 the town of Prescott Valley, AZ, hosted a Freedom Rally. Quang Nguyen was asked to speak on his experience of coming to America and what it means. He spoke the following in dedication to all Vietnam Veterans. Thought you might enjoy hearing what he had to say:
35 years ago, if you were to tell me that I am going to stand up here speaking to a couple thousand patriots, in English, I'd laugh at you. Man, every morning I wake up thanking God for putting me and my family in the greatest country on earth. I just want you all to know that the American dream does exist and I am living the American dream. I was asked to speak to you about my experience as a first generation Vietnamese-American, but I'd rather speak to you as an American.
If you hadn't noticed, I am not white and I feel pretty comfortable with my people. I am a proud U.S. citizen and here is my proof. It took me 8 years to get it, waiting in endless lines, but I got it, and I am very proud of it.
I still remember the images of the Tet offensive in 1968, I was six years old. Now you might want to question how a 6-year-old boy could remember anything. Trust me, those images can never be erased. I can't even imagine what it was like for young American soldiers, 10,000 miles away from home, fighting on my behalf.
35 years ago, I left South Vietnam for political asylum. The war had ended. At the age of 13, I left with the understanding that I may or may not ever get to see my siblings or parents again. I was one of the first lucky 100,000 Vietnamese allowed to come to the U.S. Somehow, my family and I were reunited 5 months later, amazingly, in California. It was a miracle from God.
If you haven't heard lately that this is the greatest country on earth, I am telling you that right now. It was the freedom and the opportunities presented to me that put me here with all of you tonight. I also remember the barriers that I had to overcome every step of the way. My high school counselor told me that I cannot make it to college due to my poor communication skills. I proved him wrong. I finished college. You see, all you have to do is to give this little boy an opportunity and encourage him to take and run with it. Well, I took the opportunity and here I am.
This person standing tonight in front of you could not exist under a socialist/communist environment. By the way, if you think socialism is the way to go, I am sure many people here will chip in to get you a one-way ticket out of here. And if you didn't know, the only difference between socialism and communism is an AK-47 aimed at your head. That was my experience.
In 1982, I stood with a thousand new immigrants, reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and listening to the National Anthem for the first time as an American. To this day, I can't remember anything sweeter and more patriotic than that moment in my life.
Fast forwarding, somehow I finished high school, finished college, and like any other goofball 21 year old kid, I was having a great time with my life. I had a nice job and a nice apartment in Southern California. In some way and somehow, I had forgotten how I got here and why I was here.
One day I was at a gas station, I saw a veteran pumping gas on the other side of the island. I don't know what made me do it, but I walked over and asked if he had served in Vietnam. He smiled and said yes. I shook and held his hand. The grown man began to well up. I walked away as fast as I could and at that very moment, I was emotionally rocked. This was a profound moment in my life. I knew something had to change in my life. It was time for me to learn how to be a good citizen. It was time for me to give back.
You see, America is not just a place on the map, it isn't just a physical location. It is an ideal, a concept. And if you are an American, you must understand the concept, you must accept this concept, and most importantly, you have to fight and defend this concept. This is about Freedom and not free stuff. And that is why I am standing up here.
Brothers and sisters, to be a real American, the very least you must do is to learn English and understand it well. In my humble opinion, you cannot be a faithful patriotic citizen if you can't speak the language of the country you live in. Take this document of 46 pages - last I looked on the Internet, there wasn't a Vietnamese translation of the U.S. Constitution. It took me a long time to get to the point of being able to converse and until this day, I still struggle to come up with the right words. It's not easy, but if it's too easy, it's not worth doing.
Before I knew this 46-page document, I learned of the 500,000 Americans who fought for this little boy. I learned of the 58,000 names scribed on the black wall at the Vietnam Memorial. You are my heroes. You are my founders.
At this time, I would like to ask all the Vietnam veterans to please stand. I thank you for my life. I thank you for your sacrifices, and I thank you for giving me the freedom and liberty I have today. I now ask all veterans, firefighters, and police officers, to please stand. On behalf of all first generation immigrants, I thank you for your services and may God bless you all.

Muslims ... You Worry Me. Tell Me Why I Should Not Be Concerned
Everyone God created, He gave the right to choose or reject His biblical Christian faith in Christ. But He also reserves His right to judge and hold accountable every human being for their own free-will choice to accept or reject God's only plan of salvation which is in Christ alone. And only within that circle of faith, within the Kingdom Of God, there is no race difference, no status difference, no sex difference but we are all one in Christ Jesus. Everyone outside of faith in Christ still carries their race, their religion, their sex and their sins with them to hell."There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. Gal.3:28.
So do as you will, make your choices, follow your heart and pursue your dreams, but know this; You will answer to your Creator for all those things and bear the responsibility for your choices and decisions. "Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment." Ecc.11:9.
Common Senses Commentary: The pilot below expresses, in his open letter to Muslims in America, exactly what most or our citizens are thinking. Most of us know that almost all "racism" in our country is no longer about white people discriminating against "innocent" people with a darker skin. Yes, I know, at least half of dark skinned people still think that's the problem, but today, dark skinned prejudice against whites has become an even bigger problem. That racist pendulum has swung to the other side of the clock, dark against white, and may, indeed, swing back again if all races do not stop it in the middle. Most prejudice among Americans today, however, dark or white, is not about color of skin, but is a result of the extreme "political" and "religious" differences. Such things as the hatred expressed in the 911 Muslim terrorist's attack against TheWorld Trade Center ... all humanity, who are not Muslims. I mean by that ... that Muslim fanatical terrorists, by their horrific, vicious and indiscriminate murder of 3000 of our people in the name of their religion, has resulted in a distrust of their religion, which is what motivates them to continually commit such atrocities. I am not ashamed to admit that I do not trust Muslims who, though they are not terrorists, will not openly condemn those of their religion who are. If professing Christians were killing innocent people, of any faith, you know I would condemn them openly, and take up arms against them if necessary. Harmless Muslims should... no, must do the same. Otherwise, no matter what the cost of doing so, to them might be, they will not deserve our trust. RB
YOU WORRY ME!
Please, no more benign overtures of regret for the death of the innocent, because I worry about who you regard as innocent.... No more benign overtures of condemnation for the unprovoked attacks, because I worry about what is unprovoked to you. I am not interested in any more sympathy; I am interested only in action.
What will you do for America - our great country - at this time of continuing crisis, at this time of war?

Here is a Politically Incorrect Pilot's Open Letter to Muslims....
A newspaper stated that a Muslim doctor is saying we are profiling him because he has been checked three times while getting on an airplane. The following is a letter from a pilot. This well – spoken man, who is a pilot with American Airlines, says what is in his heart, beautifully.
YOU WORRY ME!
By Captain John Maniscalco, American Airlines Pilot
I've been trying to say this since 911, but you worry me. I wish you didn't. I wish when I walked down the streets of this country that I love, that your color and culture still blended with the beautiful human landscape we enjoy in this country. But you don't blend in anymore. I notice you, and it worries me.
I notice you because I can't help it anymore. People from your homelands, professing to be Muslims, have been attacking and killing my fellow citizens and our friends for more than 20 years now. I don't fully understand their grievances and hate, but I know that nothing can justify the inhumanity of their attacks.
On September 11, ARAB-MUSLIMS hijacked four jetliners in my country. They cut the throats of women in front of children and brutally stabbed to death others, hacking their necks, over and over, with box cutters. They took control of those planes and crashed them into buildings, killing thousands of proud fathers, loving sons, wise grandparents, elegant daughters, best friends, favorite coaches, fearless public servants, and children's mothers.
The Palestinians celebrated, the Iraqis were overjoyed as was most of the Arab world. So, I notice you now. I don't want to be worried. I don't want to be consumed by the same rage, hate and prejudice that has destroyed the soul of these terrorists. But I need your help.
As a rational American, trying to protect my country and family in an irrational and unsafe world, I must know how to tell the difference between you, and the Arab/Muslim terrorist.
How do I differentiate between the true Arab/Muslim Americans and the Arab/Muslim terrorists in our communities who are attending our schools, enjoying our parks, and living in OUR communities under the protection of OUR constitution, while they plot the next attack that will slaughter MORE of the same good neighbors and children?
The events of September 11 changed the answer..
It is not MY responsibility to determine which of you embraces our great country, with ALL of its religions, with ALL of its different citizens, with all of its faults. It is time for every Arab/Muslim in this country to determine it for me.
I want to know, I DEMAND to know and I have a right to know, whether or not you love America ...... Do you pledge allegiance to its flag?
Do you proudly display it in front of your house, or on your car?
Do you pray in your many daily prayers that Allah will bless this nation; that He will protect it and let it prosper? Or do you pray that Allah will destroy it in one of your Jihads? Are you thankful for the freedom that this nation affords? A freedom that was paid for by the blood of hundreds of thousands of patriots, who have through our history, given their lives for this country? Are you willing to preserve this freedom by also paying the Ultimate sacrifice? Do you love America?? If this is your commitment, then
I need YOU to start letting ME know about it.
Your Muslim leaders in this nation should be flooding the media at this time with hard facts on your faith, and what hard actions YOU are taking as a community and as a religion to protect the United States of America.
Please, no more benign overtures of regret for the death of the innocent, because I worry about who you regard as innocent.... No more benign overtures of condemnation for the unprovoked attacks, because I worry about what is unprovoked to you. I am not interested in any more sympathy; I am interested only in action.
What will you do for America - our great country - at this time of continuing crisis, at this time of war?
I want to see Arab-Muslims waving the AMERICAN flag in the streets.
I want to hear you chanting 'Allah Bless America'.
I want to see young Arab/Muslim men enlisting in the military.
I want to see a commitment of money, time and emotion to the victims of this butchering and to our returning wounded and to this nation as a whole.
The FBI has had a long list of people they’ve wanted to interact with Regarding the threats that they believe to be ongoing. Many of these people live and socialize right now in Muslim communities. You know them. You know where they are. Give the FBI a heads up as to where they maybe. Better yet, hand them over to us, NOW!
But I have seen little even approaching this sort of action.
Instead I have seen an already closed and secretive community close even tighter. You have disappeared from the streets. You have posted armed security guards at your facilities. You have threatened lawsuits. You have screamed for protection from reprisals.
The very few Arab/Muslim representatives, like CARE, that HAVE appeared in the media were defensive and equivocating. They seemed more concerned with making sure that the United States apologize and take responsibility for actions defending our own people. They seemed more concerned with protecting their fellow Muslims from violence directed towards them in the United States and abroad than they did with supporting our country and denouncing 'leaders' like the late Khadafy, the late Hussein, Farrakhan, and the late Arafat.
If the true teachings of Islam proclaim tolerance and peace and love for all people, then I want chapter and verse from the Koran and statements from popular Muslim leaders to back it up. What good is it if the teachings in the Koran are good, pure, and true, when your 'leaders' ARE teaching fanatical interpretations, terrorism, and intolerance? It matters little how good Islam SHOULD BE if huge numbers of the world's Muslims interpret the teachings of Mohammad incorrectly and adhere to a degenerative form of the religion.
A form that has been demonstrated to us over and over again.
A form whose structure is built upon a foundation of violence, death, and suicide.
A form whose members are recruited from the prisons around the world.
A form whose members (some as young as five years old) are seen day after day, week in and week out, year after year, marching in the streets around the world, burning effigies of our presidents, burning the American flag, shooting weapons into the air.
A form whose members convert from a peaceful religion, only to take up arms against the great United States of America, the country of their birth.
A form whose rules are so twisted, that their traveling members refuse to show their faces at airport security checkpoints, in the name of Islam.
We will NEVER allow the attacks of September 11, or any others for that matter, to take away that which is so precious to us -- our rights under the greatest constitution in the world.
I want to know where every Arab Muslim in this country stands and I think it is my right and the right of every true citizen of this country to DEMAND it.
A right paid for by the blood of thousands of my brothers and sisters who died protecting the very constitution that is protecting you and your family.
I am pleading with you to let me know. I want you here as my brother, my neighbor, my friend, as a fellow American...... But there can be no grey areas or ambivalence regarding your allegiance, and it is up to YOU, to show ME, where YOU stand. Until then, "YOU WORRY ME!"

"God So Loved The World". Can I Not Love The Few Who Pass Near Me?
Common Sense Commentary: Love and a kind word cost not a penny. I should never miss an opportunity to make the people around me feel they are important to God and valued by me. If I forget to make each one feel they have value and that I know it, I have failed as a minister ... and maybe as a Christian. No one should ever have to endure the trials of life without someone there to say "You have great value to God; He has a purpose for your life and I care about you." We should never let a dying friend pass through the "valley of the shadow" without going to them to express our love for them and be a final witness, for Christ, to their fading life and to pray with them. Speak through me, Lord. RB
THE LAST CAB RIDE
I arrived at the address and honked the horn.
After waiting a few minutes I honked again.
Since this was going to be my last ride of my shift I thought about just driving away, but instead I put the cab in park and walked up to the door and knocked..
'Just a minute', answered a frail, elderly voice. I could hear something being dragged across the floor.
After a long pause, the door opened.
A small woman in her 90's stood before me. She was wearing a print dress and a pillbox hat with a veil pinned on it, like somebody out of a 1940's movie.
By her side was a small nylon suitcase. The apartment looked as if no one had lived in it for years. All the furniture was covered with sheets.
There were no clocks on the walls, no nickknacks or utensils on the counters. In the corner was a cardboard box filled with photos and glassware.
'Would you carry my bag out to the car?' she said.
I took the suitcase to the cab, then returned to assist the woman.
She took my arm and we walked slowly toward the curb.
She kept thanking me for my kindness.
"It's nothing', I told her. 'I just try to treat my passengers the way I would want my mother to be treated.'
'Oh, you're such a good boy, she said.
When we got in the cab, she gave me an address and then asked, 'Could you drive through downtown?'
It's not the shortest way,' I answered quickly..
'Oh, I don't mind,' she said. 'I'm in no hurry. I'm on my way to a hospice. '
I looked in the rear-view mirror. Her eyes were glistening.
'I don't have any family left,' she continued in a soft voice.. 'The doctor says I don't have very long.'
I quietly reached over and shut off the meter.
'What route would you like me to take?' I asked.
For the next two hours, we drove through the city.
She showed me the building where she had once worked as an elevator operator.
We drove through the neighborhood where she and her husband had lived when they were newlyweds.
She had me pull up in front of a furniture warehouse that had once been a ballroom where she had gone dancing as a girl.
Sometimes she'd ask me to slow in front of a particular building or corner and would sit staring into the darkness, saying nothing.
As the first hint of sun was creasing the horizon, she suddenly said, 'I'm tired. Let's go now
'We drove in silence to the address she had given me.
It was a low building, like a small convalescent home, with a driveway that passed under a portico.
Two orderlies came out to the cab as soon as we pulled up. They were solicitous and intent, watching her every move. They must have been expecting her.
I opened the trunk and took the small suitcase to the door. The woman was already seated in a wheelchair.
'How much do I owe you?' She asked, reaching into her purse.
'Nothing,' I answered.
'You have to make a living,' she said.
'There are other passengers,' I responded.
Almost without thinking, I bent and gave her a hug. She held onto me tightly.
'You gave an old woman a little moment of joy,' she said. 'Thank you.'
I squeezed her hand, and then walked into the dim morning light. Behind me, a door shut. It was the sound of the closing of a life..
.
I didn't pick up any more passengers that shift. I drove aimlessly lost in thought.
For the rest of that day, I could hardly talk. What if that woman had gotten an angry driver, or one who was impatient to end his shift?
What if I had refused to take the run, or had honked once, then driven away?
On a quick review, I don't think that I have done anything more important in my life.
We're conditioned to think that our lives revolve around great moments.
But great moments often catch us unaware - beautifully wrapped in what others may consider a small one.
PEOPLE MAY NOT REMEMBER EXACTLY WHAT YOU DID, OR WHAT YOU SAID. BUT THEY WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW YOU MADE THEM FEEL.

World Champion POTUS Of National Divisiveness Turns On Himself
The Potus is calling the kettle black
(President Of The United States)
Common Sense Commentary: The phrase "The pot calling the kettle black" is an idiom used to claim that a person is guilty of the very thing of which they accuse another. Wikipedia
The very source of national division in America, the master of race baiting and religious hate, lost his brain in a recent speech like the Emperor who lost his dignity in his new, invisible suit. Emperor Obama was elected on the mantra (slogan repeated frequently) of "HOPE and CHANGE". What he has actually done since his election, by the nation's brainless, free stuff followers led by Left-wing Socialist conspirators, is invisible "hope" and a parade of racial animosity as his legacy of "change".
Barack Obama: "If we turn against each other based on division of race or religion. If-if-if-if-if-if-if-if-if-if-if we fall for, you know, a bunch of okie-doke, just because, you know it-it-it. You know, it-it-it-it-it-it sounds funny or the tweets are provocative."
When I began reading those words of the President, I first thought he was apologizing to America for his own sins and mistakes and having a hard time doing it. What I really want to know is what exactly is, as he says, "The Progress that he started".

Why Is Simple Common Sense So Rare And Often Rejected When It Is So Obvious
Common Sense Commentary: The most logical answer to that question is that Common Sense is among that short list of golden gifts inspired of God. Others are Truth, Honor, Agape Love, Faith, Courage, Honesty, Endurance, Logic and Respect. Those divine attributes come, like a laser light from the heart of God to the receptive hearts of seekers of God. It is God, those He created in His image and likeness, especially believers, as well as those godly attributes which Satan hates, attacks, conspires against and turns the world against. How else can one find a reason for a world majority hating one small race of people more than any other, the Jews, the people of the Bible through whom Jesus came? How else can you explain the deep hatred and death wish doctrine of a "religion" such as Islam? How else can you understand how the most wicked of men could gain such power and wealth as George Soros? How else to comprehend a thing like Political Correctness being embraced at the sacrifice of Common Sense and reason? God spoke of such contradiction many times in His word....
Isaiah 1:4 Ah sinful nation, a people laden with iniquity, a seed of evildoers, children that are corrupters: they have forsaken the LORD, they have provoked the Holy One of Israel unto anger, they are gone away backward.
Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!
Here is one of my heroes ...
Today I listened to a radio interview of my friend and fellow Chosin Few member, Dr. James Nicholson, by the host of America Armed And Free on Radio KBOI out of Idaho. Dr. Nicholson is known by Marines as Jim the BARman because he carried the heaviest personal weapon a BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle), a machine gun, in the Korean War. Dr Nicholson gave a magnificent overview of Communism, Marine warriors, women in ground battle units and related topics. If you want to hear some real "Common Sense" and what many American men once were and what made them heroes, listen to this all American patriot and hero, Jim the BARman, Dr. James Nicholson.
