Right is right, Wrong is wrong

On Tuesday Sneed from the Sun-Times wrote the the new Archbishop Blase Cupich on Sunday Mass at Holy Name Cathedral encouraged all to join him in a prayer and to raise their hands to show support for the misdirected #protesters – guess he and the so-called Rev. Michael Pfleger will be getting along real good. Didn't know that the church sees nothing wrong with people stealing and burning another persons property. Guess the church is not teaching the Ten Commandments anymore. There are three that come to the top of my head - #7 Thou shall not steal, #8 Thou shall not bear false witness and #10 Thou shall not covet your neighbor's goods. And we can add the big one # 5 Thou shall not kill – which is what they did to most of the store owners and their families when they did away with their their businesses.

Pandering Panda

Obama calmly said the Libya attack was due to a YouTube movie trailer when everything pointed to a terrorist attack.   The pandering of terrorist is as bad as their pandering of illegal aliens.

The more we find out what was happening in Libya before the deadly attack, the more it leaves you to believe the lying and cover-up was on the agenda. 

We learn that repeated requests were made by Ambassador Chris Stevens for increase security and was denied even though they knew his life had been threaten.  Then we learn that 24 hours after the fact Obama and other departments in charged had reports that it was indeed a terrorist attack and they still came out and lied about what happened.

The lying by all that were to protect this man and other Americans there should not be forgiven.  All the lying, twisting of words, and deceiving that has come out of this White House should not be forgotten. 

Clinton was impeached because he had lied about his relationship with 22-year-old White House intern Monica Lewinsky.  Nixon faced certain impeachment for obstruction of justice in the Watergate burglaries.  When has lying and deceiving become acceptable with our leaders?

Stupid is, as Stupid does

Anti-war demonstrations hit the Chicago Air and Water show in a stupid protest against our military.  Who do they think fought so they could be born in a free country or even have this right to protest? 

Most people would agree that war is not a nice thing but some wars are necessary to ensure peace.  What an insult to our wounded warriors that have give up limbs to protect those that are protesting.  There senseless protest and political theater acts benefit no one and ruins the day for those who just wanted to watch the air show.   Stupid is, as Stupid does!

Protest away

As protestors hit the streets of Chicago they fail to realize that the only ones interested in what they are doing is the media.  NATO leaders, Obama, the Mayor and Governor have more important things on their mind then what protestors think, want or do.   For the most part, leaders are shielded from seeing or coming in contact with protestors.  News media are there to pick up a breaking news story, hopefully one that will have blood and guts in it. 

The protestors seem to forget that Chicago is now the home of protestors; everyone and everything is protested in Chicago, it is a every day occurrence, nothing new.

If there is something to protest, it is protested in Chicago.  City does what City has to do, police do what police have to do and the in my own world protestors do what they have to do.  Nothing is ever fixed or changed because of these protests, mental health centers are still being closed, shootings are still happening, city is still spending money they do not have, state is still doing what they have done over and over for years and years.
