This is meant to be a very fair talk about how Our Great Country of the United States Of America! The Revolutionary War, Civil War, WWI, WW2. Korean War ( called Action), Vietnam War. Gulf war, The War on Terror! and not after freeing 100,000's of people in the world we: apologize to the world for being the one country keeping the world free. Sorry, but I have always loved my country, until this now, when we have turned our backs on citizens of the world, who count on America to help them be free. Iran's people looked for help, We turned our backs! So why am I and so many U.S.Citizens so worried about what is happing to Our country? Does it scare me for the first time in my lifetime that my own country is checking me and my own feeling about freedom. Yes!
Am I safe or is my neighbor turning me in?
Please wake up this is for Real!

Only In America
Can we give up our freedom,
Or have we fought for freedom all of our history, just to be taken down as Rome was from within. Have Americans ever just sat back when challenge?

One Question ?
Do any of our leaders today remind you of our Forefathers ?

Do you want to have insurance for yourself or do you want non-americans to have free insurance while you lose your own? I love most of God's children's of the world as I am sure that you do! However,should I migrate to Rushia , China, or you name the country. Is the first thing they are going to worry about is if I have Cancer? Well I do and I do not think they care. Now I find out my own government doesn't care! Four of my brothers served in WWII, my sister and I served in the late 50's and 60's! In the words of President John Adams "Does any one care?"
I always felt that George Washington did. And always felt priviled to serve in the same Army that he lead to such a great victory.
I was lucky to service in the opuration of Berlin, Germany from 1958 to 1960 just before Russia built the Berlin Wall.
every time I could go on leave, I had to take the train from Berlin to Frankfort in the middle of the night!Why? They didn't want us to see the East German Guardspattroling the stations along the way. German women were forced to work the fields all night long! Why Southern East German Guards? We would not want to have East Berlin Guards as they might be too slow to Shoot first and ask no questions?

The following was written by Ben Stein and recited by him on CBS Sunday Morning Commentary.
My confession:
I am a Jew, and every single one of my ancestors was Jewish. And it does not bother me even a little bit when people call those beautiful lit up, bejeweled trees, Christmas trees. I don't feel threatened. I don't feel discriminated against. That's what they are, Christmas trees.
It doesn't bother me a bit when people say, 'Merry Christmas' to me. I don't think they are slighting me or getting ready to put me in a ghetto. In fact, I kind of like it. It shows that we are all brothers and sisters celebrating this happy time of year. It doesn't bother me at all that there is a manger scene on display at a key intersection near my beach house in Malibu ..... If people want a creche, it's just as fine with me as is the Menorah a few hundred yards away.
I don't like getting pushed around for being a Jew, and I don't think Christians like getting pushed around for being Christians. I think people who believe in God are sick and tired of getting pushed around, period... I have no idea where the concept came from, that America is an explicitly atheist country.. I can't find it in the Constitution and I don't like it being shoved down my throat.
Or maybe I can put it another way: where did the idea come from that we should worship celebrities and we aren't allowed to worship God as we understand Him? I guess that's a sign that I'm getting old, too. But there are a lot of us who are wondering where these celebrities came from and where the America we knew went to.
In light of the many jokes we send to one another for a laugh, this is a little different: This is not intended to be a joke; it's not funny, it's intended to get you thinking.
Billy Graham 's daughter was interviewed on the Early Show and Jane Clayson asked her 'How could God let something like this happen?' (regarding Hurricane Katrina ).. Anne Graham gave an extremely profound and insightful response. She said, 'I believe God is deeply saddened by this, just as we are, but for years we've been telling God to get out of our schools, to get out of our government and to get out of our lives. And being the gentleman He is, I believe He has calmly backed out. How can we expect God to give us His blessing and His protection if we demand He leave us alone?'
In light of recent events..... Terrorists attack, school shootings, etc. I think it started when Madeleine Murray O'Hare (she was murdered, her body found a few years ago) complained she didn't want prayer in our schools, and we said OK. Then someone said you better not read the Bible in school. The Bible says thou shalt not kill; thou shalt not steal, and love your neighbor as yourself. And we said OK.
Then Dr. Benjamin Spock said we shouldn't spank our children when they misbehave, because their little personalities would be warped and we might damage their self-esteem (Dr. Spock 's son committed suicide). We said an expert should know what he's talking about. And we said okay.
Now we're asking ourselves why our children have no conscience, why they don't know right from wrong, and why it doesn't bother them to kill strangers, their classmates, and themselves.
Probably, if we think about it long and hard enough, we can figure it out.. I think it has a great deal to do with 'WE REAP WHAT WE SOW.'
Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell. Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the Bible says. Funny how you can send 'jokes' through e-mail and they spread like wildfire, but when you start sending messages regarding the Lord, people think twice about sharing. Funny how lewd, crude, vulgar and obscene articles pass freely through cyberspace, but public discussion of God is suppressed in the school and workplace.
Are you laughing yet?
Funny how when you forward this message, you will not send it to many on your address list because you're not sure what they believe, or what they will think of you for sending it.
Funny how we can be more worried about what other people think of us than what God thinks of us.
Pass it on if you think it has merit.
If not, then just discard it..... No one will know you did. But, if you discard this thought process, don't sit back and complain about what bad shape the world is in.
My Best Regards, Honestly and respectfully,
Ben Stein
