Pray for those affected by natural disasters throughout our nation (re-post)


Two years ago, I posted the following post entitled, Prayer for those affected by natural disasters – Wallbuilders

Today, I believe is the perfect moment to revisit the Wallbuilders post, as the nation together with the residents of Moore, Oklahoma mourn their loss in the wake of yesterday’s tragic events.

Let us come together in prayer as a nation for those directly affected this season by disasters brought about by the elements.

Let us be mindful of their loss and their suffering.  Please say a prayer for those who perished and for those who lost loved ones.

In addition, many have lost their homes, businesses and livelihood.  Let us be forthcoming in our prayers, support and well wishes for our fellow Americans.

Ask the Heavenly Father to protect, bless, keep, and provide strength along the road back for those living where disaster struck. They need it.

Finally, let us have faith and ask God to protect our great nation from future disasters.

Lord, protect our country from natural disasters

America: Protection Against Natural Disasters
by Michala at 3:52 PM on Mon, Jun 22, 2009

Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and he brought them out of their distress. He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed. -Psalm 107:28-29
O Lord, we come before you asking that you will protect the people of this nation against natural disasters.  Protect us from tornadoes, hurricanes, ice storms, floods, extreme heat, earthquakes, etc.  You are the creator of this earth and the calmer of storms.  Calm the storms around us and protect your people.

He [Jesus] got up and rebuked the wind and the raging waters; the storm subsided, and all was calm.
-Luke 8:25a

If you make the Most High your dwelling- even the LORD, who is my refuge- then no harm will befall you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
-Psalm 91:9-10

IRS’ Lois Lerner to Invoke the Fifth


Lois Lerner

Head of the IRS’ exempt organizations division, Lois Lerner, has informed Darrell Issa through legal counsel, William W. Taylor III, a criminal defense attorney that she does not plan to answer any questions.  Instead Lerner will invoke the fifth amendment.

In the correspondence to Issa, Taylor pointed out that the Justice Department had commenced an investigation and asked that Lerner be excused from attending the hearing.

L. A. TIMES

Lois Lerner, the head of the exempt organizations division of the IRS, won’t answer questions about what she knew about the improper screening — or why she didn’t disclose it to Congress, according to a letter from her defense lawyer, William W. Taylor III. Lerner was scheduled to appear before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday.

‘She has not committed any crime or made any misrepresentation but under the circumstances she has no choice but to take this course,’ said a letter by Taylor to committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Vista). The letter, sent Monday, was obtained Tuesday by the Los Angeles Times….

According to Legal Insurrection, Issa has issued a subpoena duces tecum to Lerner to appear anyway.

I suspect that about now Lerner is regretting planting the question two  weeks ago at a conference 48 hours after failing to mention the targeting of Conservatives in the presence of a Congressional panel.

Hero teacher shields students in bathroom as Oklahoma twister levels school; plus addl footage.

In the midst of all the pain, suffering and loss, there is always room for the heroes, God’s angels and the blessings.

NEW YORK POST

A teacher from the Oklahoma school, wiped out by yesterday’s tornado, is being hailed as a lifesaving hero for throwing her body over kids and sheltering them from the deadly storm.

Twisters leveled Plaza Towers Elementary School, where dozens of students had hunkered down in hopes of riding out the killer tornado…..

…A teacher took cover of us, Miss Crosswhite,” Damian said. “She was covering me and my friend Zachary. I told her we were fine because we were holding on to something, and then she went over to my friend Antonio and covered him, so she saved our lives.”

Crosswhite said she kept telling kids that everything was going to be OK, as 200 m.p.h. winds crushed the Moore, Okla., campus….

…’One of my little boys just kept saying, ‘I love you, I love you, please don’t die with me.’ I never thought I was going to die. The whole time I just kept screaming to them, ‘Quit worrying, we’re fine, we’re fine.’ And I’m very loud, so I just hoped they could hear me because I could hear them screaming. [One girl] was sobbing, and I was like, ‘We’re going to be fine, we’re going to be fine, I’m protecting you.’ And then I said a few prayers. ‘God please take care of my kids.’ ‘

Crosswhite compared the tornado’s sound to a speeding train, barreling through town….

Ignorant Progressives hate Fox News. They just don’t know who, what, when, where or why.


It is only fair to note that the low information voter in this photograph is smarter than many of the others interviewed in the video.

It is only fair to note that the low information voter in this photograph is smarter than many of the others interviewed in the video.

Liberals claim to know of Dick Cheney, Joe Biden, despise Fox News, its anchors yet they cannot explain what they do, who the anchors are or why the hate.

The mentality of a low information voter is as such.  “Barack Obama says that we should not think about politics or the direction in which this country is headed.  We have our own concerns to worry about.  So we do what Obama tells us to.”

This is why Barack Obama feels so empowered to commit acts of treason against the Republic.

He goes about his nefarious deed aware that a smile, a joke, sounding cool and talking a little bull will provide him leeway towards escalating an agenda whose endgame is to destroy the country and the people.

Through their ignorance, low information voters have allowed themselves to become a party to treason by themselves becoming a danger to the nation.

NYPD Cops Arrest Woman Recording Them, Apparently Stealing Wrong Memory Card (Updated)

" New York City police officers arrested a woman who was video recording them from a public sidewalk as they conducted some type of “vehicle safety checkpoint.”

The officers apparently stole a memory card from a camera, which turned out to be the wrong one, allowing us to view the video.

NYPD has been doing its police state thing for thirty plus years. I remember back in the 70's my sister telling me a recounting an event that she and her husband experienced. The police stopped the young couple as they were traveling from a club one night. The officers told them that they looked like a couple that was going through the neighborhood robbing people and took them in. Actually, I believe they were coming to my house after the club which more than likely meant that they should not be out that time of night in the neighborhood in which I lived. No, I'm not implying race. It is just that where I lived at the time, most people were in the beds asleep at 1 a.m., even on a Saturday night so NYPD made assumptions. The couple was held at the police station almost until daybreak, at which point, the officers informed them that they made a mistake.

ACTION ALERT: Rein in the IRS Rallies, Tuesday, May 21st, Noon!


Received the following email late yesterday from Tea Party Patriots.

reinintheirsrally

Today, Rush Limbaugh inadvertently crashed the Tea Party Patriots web site by inviting the nation to join our nationwide IRS protests tomorrow:

Rush Limbaugh:  “I’ll bet this is gonna be huge.  It’s entirely possible that people are going to see once again just how big and how deep the Tea Party is.”

Show our big, bloated, corrupt and out-of-control government big and deep the Tea Party is.  Show government that we will not stand for them targeting us with the IRS.  Spend your lunch hour saving your country.

UPDATE: Due to the overwhelming response today, our main website has experienced heavy amounts of traffic which caused the site to crash several times. We are working as fast as we can to correct the problem, but in the mean time we have another place you can look to find information as tomorrow gets closer. Please see below for the latest updates.
Tea Party Patriots: Rein in the IRS – Tuesday, May 21 @ Noon
Ever since the IRS scandal broke, we have heard numerous stories from around the country about Tea Party, 9/12, Patriot groups, and even individuals who feel they were unfairly targeted by the IRS. This type of abuse cannot be tolerated and so we are calling for nationwide protests tomorrow, May 21, 2013 at 12pm noon at local IRS offices. We’d like to give a hat tip to groups in Cincinnati who began planning the first IRS protest – due to the Cincinnati IRS location being outed as the division that was heading up the discrimination tactics. We are extremely excited that so many around the country are joining in solidarity. Will you stand with us tomorrow? Click to find the location nearest you.

You can access a page with all of the information at the Tea Party Patriots Citizens Fund website.

Focus on the Reason to Protest Tomorrow
As tomorrow nears, it is important for us to stay focused on the message. With everything that is going on – Benghazi, Amnesty, DOJ/AP scandal, IRS scandal – it is easy to try to point to specifics. What all of this shows us is that BIG GOVERNMENT policies do not work. Dana Loesch wrote an excellent piece on this today at RedState. Click to read the post.
Thanks again for all of your support.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali On Giving Citizenship To Permanent Enemies

Swearing In the Enemy

Hugh Fitzgerald

One of the suspected Boston bombers was a naturalized citizen, and the other was on his way. Ayaan Hirsi Ali, herself a new citizen, asks how we might change the process of becoming an American to exclude those who hate America.

Individuals Used To Matter

Reblogged from NoOneOfAnyImport:

We old-fashioned types are pretty shocked when we hear crazy collectivist talk spewing out of what is at least in theory a mainstream media outlet.  We shake our heads and shake our fists and cry out in despair and confusion, "What the hell is going on here? What is wrong with you people?"

It's hard.  It's hard to understand what has happened to our country.
