WHO WOULD YOU VOTE FOR!!!

I was driving to school this morning and heard a conversation on the radio about the Presidential election coming up. This lady said you can go to MSNBC's website and find an interview with Obama about his "stance" on the Pledge of Allegiance and some other topics. I went there after lunch and it was gone!!! So I had to hunt it down and find it. I have really been on the fence about who to vote for. There are really,in my opinion,no great option that stands out to me. I would rather not vote for either one of them. Anyway,here it is.

From Sunday's Televised 'Meet the Press' Senator Obama was asked about his stance on the American Flag. Obama Explains National Anthem Stance Sun, 07 Sept. 2008 11:48:04 EST, General Bill Ginn' USAF (ret.) asked Obama to explain why he doesn't follow protocol when the National Anthem is played.The General also stated to the Senator that according to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171... During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. At the very least, 'Stand and Face It'
Senator Obama Live on Sunday states,
'As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides, Obama said. 'There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like To Teach the World To Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute it.'We should consider to reinvent our National Anthem as well as to redesign our Flag to better offer our enemies hope and love. It's my intention, if elected, to disarm America to the level of acceptance to our Middle East Brethren. If we as a Nation of warring people, should conduct ourselves as the nations of Islam, whereas peace prevails. Perhaps a state or period of mutual concord between our governments. When I become President, I will seek a pact or agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity, and a freedom from disquieting oppressive thoughts. We as a Nation have placed upon the nations of Islam an unfair injustice. My wife disrespects the Flag for many personal reasons. Together she and I have attended several flag burning ceremonies in the past, many years ago. She has her views and I have mine'. Of course now, I have found myself about to become the President of the United States and I have put aside my hatred. I will use my power to bring CHANGE to this Nation, and offer the people a new path of hope. My wife and I look forward to becoming our Country's First Family. Indeed, CHANGE is about to overwhelm the United States of America.

WOW!!! This really opened my eyes. This man could perhaps be our next Commander in Chief. These verses came into my mind when I read this:
Revelation 2:16
Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
Revelation 22:20-21
20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. 21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.

This would be a GREAT time for the Lord to come get us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

21 Reasons Why Sarah Palin Should NOT be Elected Vice-President of the United States:

1) She is a Woman.

2) She does not believe in killing babies, born or unborn.

3) She is NOT endorsed by Susan Sarandon, Jane Fonda, Rosie O'Donnell, Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Geraldine Ferrara, Barbara Walters, Helen Thomas, Ellen DeGeneris, Ted Kennedy, Keith Olberman, Chris Matthews, Barbra Streisand, David Letterman, or others who fervently believe in a Woman's Right to Choose (to kill babies).

4) She is married to a Foreigner --a species called 'Native American'--meaning her five children are half-breeds.

5) She has on more than one occasion expressed PRIDE in the United States of America .

6) Unlike decent, self-respecting Democrats everywhere, she has a 17-year-old daughter who became pregnant out of wedlock.

7) She is a member of the National Riflemen's Association/actually owns firearms/ and know how to use them.

8) She has killed a moose, among other animals - and spreads the propaganda that it is hunters, through their license fees, that keep American wildlife from becoming extinct.

9) She often does her own grocery and other household shopping.

10) She drives a car, and flies a plane.

11) She chose to give birth to a defective child, rather than allow a skilled Abortion Doctor to kill it for her.

12) She refuses to apologize for seeking the termination of an Alaskan State Trooper just because he applied a gentle taser to his 12-year-old stepson (who, of course, happened to be Gov. Palin's nephew).

13) She is inexperienced. And she refuses to admit that her duties as the chief executive in the State of Alaska are nowhere near equal to those of a public servant who was once a Community Organizer, or that of a United States Senator who has carried the awesome burden of overseeing a staff of political appointees.

14) She has a son who is in the U.S. . Military, deployed to the Persian Gulf --probably making her prejudiced against all the peaceful Muslims in that part of the world.

15) She is on Oprah Winfrey's 'Do Not Invite' list.

16) She professes to be a Christian, but has no 'Spiritual Adviser'-- even though Rev. Jeremiah Wright, who served Sen. Obama in that capacity for 20 years, is now available.

17) She isn't really a 'beauty queen,' as advertised. She was only the runner-up in the Miss Alaska Contest; and Alaska is not a very populous state, anyway.

18) The Obama-Biden ticket is favored over McCain-Palin, 80% 50 30%, by our friendly allies in France.

19) Her children are not properly trained in hygiene. (Did you see her 7-year-old daughter shamelessly lick the entire palm of her hand at the Convention, then use it to slick down the hair of her little brother?)

20) She is of mixed English, German, and Irish ancestry -- and you KNOW you can't trust the Limey's, Krauts, or Micks.

21) Back to No. 1: This is the one that really galls modern, liberal 'feminists.' Gov. Palin is a woman, a female-type wife and mother, who shaves her legs, wears makeup, dresses smartly, often cooks meals for her family, doesn't give a hoot about the National Organization for Women or the all-powerful Teachers Unions--and obviously will never, ever fit in as a member of the Washington Elite. Do we want a person like this to be the Vice President of the United States? YOU BETCHA!!!!!!!!!!!

I HATE BEING SICK!!!

I would like to confess something to each and everyone today. I hate being sick. I have had the worst sore throat that I have ever experienced. I can't talk. I can't even swallow. My wife(the doctor without a degree) says it is my sinus drainage. I don't care. I hate it!!!! I missed Old-Fashioned Day at our church. I usually like this day because it is pretty funny to see other people, other than you, who look funny in their attire. The kids have all been sick. They have been running a fever and cough and all the junk that goes along with that for about a week. Things are still pretty busy. We have a lot of things going on. We also have another date for a nursing home visit. November 2. She also wants to set up a date with us come back every month. I think that says alot about our group. Let me know what you think. The only thing that I'm scared of is calling her in the next couple of months and canceling because we have lost interest. Let me know what you think and some ideas to do the next time we go. Even if you have an idea about something to take each resident that would be greatly appreciated!!!!

Who are all those CRAZY kids that are clowning around ?

This was taken at The Comedy Barn while on vacation . Who does these kids belong to, anyway ? ? ?


Now on a little bit of a serious matter. I find it crazy how fast the boys have grown. When finding my clowning around pic for foto friday I always seem to go to the ones of the boys when they were babies. It makes me almost cry to see some of the pictures of them when they were shorter than me . Now Langdon is almost taller than me . And Cameron and Parker are right behind him.

Until next time, ( NOT SURE )

Lost

Oh my gosh, Im so far behind with the lastest post. I feel lost and left out. So let me tell you i have not been able to get on blogspot at work ( I guess they didn't like me getting on there) maybe I got a little obsessed. Anyway , We dont have internet at home so I have had to come up with other options to get on. As I post this I'm at my sisters house . I have been having withdrawals and I have not had time to look at all the post that I have missed.

FOTO FRIDAY

Today is Foto Friday. Todays theme is Fall. The boys have been out of school for fall break and they have been staying with their Granny. She always has some little project for them to do in order to keep them occupied. Wednesday & Thursday they spent their days carving pumpkins. Here is a picture of the finished product.

I have been going thru some old pictures that have been on my computer and I've been trying to transfer them to Cd's so I can free up some space on the laptop. I thought I would share some of these with one. The first picture is of all the boys. I know you can't see Parker in this picture but he is in there!!! Hopefully you can figure that out on your own!!

Now here is a picture with all of them. This is probably one of the first ones we tried to take with all of them together.

I am going to try to post some of each of them as a baby later on. Its fun and sometimes funny to go back and look at these pictures. Time flies so fast!!!

Here are the six random things about Jeff

1. Don’t like change (unless its at church)- I usually don’t like change. If there is a plan, I like to try to stick to it. Now church, that’s a different story. This past Sunday we changed the whole “program” around. It was GREAT. It keeps you on your feet. Let me try to give you an example of change I don’t care for. It on Monday we are planning something fun for the weekend and for some reason we can’t do it, it drives me crazy.

2. I don’t like it when people talk about my wife and children(even if they are joking). I don’t know why this drives me crazy but it does. My family is all I’ve got and no one will talk about them if I can help it. I know that’s a little deep but it’s the truth.

3. I don’t like losing. I love to win, even with my kids. If we are playing any random sport outside or game inside I have to beat them. I know that is weird but I figure in a couple of years they will be able to beat me in everything so I better take advantage of my ability to beat them now. There will come a day when I wont be able to hold a candle to them and it is fast approaching!!!!!!

4. I love going to the zoo. I know that is weird. I am not a member of PETA. I don’t think animals are human beings. But I love loading the family and a picnic and spending the day at the zoo. As a matter of fact ,we go to the zoo so much during to year that they informed us that it would be cheaper if we became members. And believe it or not we did. We are actually members of the Memphis Zoo!!! Ask my wife about it. She hates it!!!!

5. I have a hard time meeting new people. I am not the type of person that will run up to someone and say hello. It is a weird quirk of mine. I am really working hard on getting better at it so pray I will. I think I am so self conscience of my weight and appearance, I try to avoid people. PRAY,PRAY,PRAY!!!

6. I have to drive . If my wife and I are going on a trip to ANYWHERE(I mean anywhere)I have to drive. If we go to Wal-Mart, I have to drive. If we were to drive to California, I would drive the whole way. I am scared to death when she drives. It is stressful on all of us. I’m yelling at her, she’s yelling at me, its tough. I have tried. It was just way to stressful. I get real close to the Lord on these drives. Let me give you an example. Every time I ride with her I feel like I’m delivering mail. She drives so close to the right side of the road that I can stick my hand out the window and check their mail. As a matter of fact, she has actually hit a mailbox and knocked the mailbox completely off the post and knocked her passenger side mirror completely off her car!!!! Then she told me “I never ran off the road” . To which I said “Either you ran off the road or the mailbox dug itself out of the ground and ran right in front of you” . Pretty simple right!!! Now I thought that would be the end of conversation. But then she says “ All I know is I never ran off the road”. Even now she says the mailbox was too close to the road. But she took this road everyday for about a year before she finally took the poor mailbox out. This story still comes up about once a week!!!!

Here are the six random things about Carre

1. At work I have to have things in certain a place. I have a certain order that I turn on my lights, my computer and even the a certain order that I open programs. I also have to have things neat at my desk. Unlike at home I don’t care if things are not where they are suppose to be.

2. I don’t care for change. It takes me awhile to get comfortable to the changes. Needless to say I don’t change things very much.

3. I have a loud mouth. When I get excited my voice gets louder. It is like I can’t help it and I don’t even realize that it is even happening. I’m so like my mom and sister it’s not even funny.

4. I don’t like anyone that I know to be mad at me. I will worry myself to death thinking about if I said something or did something to make someone upset with me.

5. I let little things annoy me . I have a short fuse when it comes to that. I might not say anything about it but it crawls all over me like white on rice. And sometimes it causes me to be short and rude to people.

6. This is almost like a quirk of mine! Every night Jeffrey likes to have ice cream before bed. Hey says “ Carre can you lay out the NEOPOLITAN ! But guess what kind of ice cream that we buy! Not Neapolitan, we always buy SHERBERT. It drives in INSANE . One night I told him that I would not lay it out until he called it by the correct type that we had.
