We have enjoyed the redneck jokes for years. It's time to take a reflective look at the core beliefs of a culture that values home, family, country and God. If I had to stand before a dozen terrorists who threaten my life, I'd choose a half dozen or so rednecks to back me up. Tire irons, squirrel guns and grit -- that's what rednecks are made of. I hope I am one of those. If you feel the same, pass this on to your redneck friends. Ya'll know who ya' are.

You might be a redneck if: It never occurred to you to be offended by the phrase,'One nation, under God.'

You might be a redneck if: You've never protested about seeing the 10 Commandments posted in public places.

You might be a redneck if: You still say ' Christmas' instead of 'Winter Festival.'

You might be a redneck if: You bow your head when someone prays.

You might be a redneck if: You stand and place your hand over your heart when they play the National Anthem.

You might be a redneck if: You treat our armed forces veterans with great respect, and always have.

You might be a redneck if: You've never burned an American flag, nor intend to.

You might be a redneck if: You know what you believe and you aren't afraid to say so, no matter who is listening.

You might be a redneck if: You respect your elders and raised your kids to do the same.

You might be a redneck if: You'd give your last dollar to a friend.

Let's face it. If Obama was any other race with the qualifications he has, he wouldn't have even been nominated by his own party. His qualifications wouldn't even meet the minimum standards to run a Fortune 500 company, needless to say the United States.

With his questionable associations with people of corruption, racism, Muslim belief's and terrorism, this raises additional questions to his ability to "do right" by American citizens.

Obama quote: "When I started this campaign, I wasn't sure that I was going to be the best of candidates. But what I was absolutely positive of was that there was the possibility of creating the "best organization". The way great things happen is when people are willing to submerge their own egos and focus on a common task. That's my old organizing mind-set. It's not just a gimmick, it's not just a shtick. I actually believe in it."

So, here he even admits he isn't the best candidate to run the country. This is a stark difference to the personality he portray's in his rallies and speeches.

His background speaks for itself. He has very little experience in government and allot in organizing a community. The obvious difference is... the United States is not a small community and the same "self interest" policies and principles would not be effective.

I'm making an exception and will respond to your biased, pro-Obama post.
The Obama supporting media is in Obama's tank, just as you are.
Democrat state senator Hollis French, an Obama supporter headed the inquiry. This man is on Obama's web site.
Wait until The FBI investigation into a ten state voter fraud by Obama's organization, Acorn, gives us an October surprise.
So quit trying to smear Palin's name. You can in no way compare with her character.
ACORN? are you nuts? Yuk,yuk,yuk LOL!

Let's take a little trip down memory lane w/ Sara Palin and why she is such a good choice for women:

2006 Gubernatorial Debate at KAKM-TV in Anchorage:

Libby Casey: Suppose Senator John Doe puts forth a constitutional amendment that would outlaw abortion even in cases of rape or incest, and he asked you to attend the announcement and support him in that. Would you do it?

Sarah Palin: You’re, you’re asking if… in front of me were legislation that I would be asked to sign?

Libby Casey: No, if he was going to put forth a constitutional amendment, and he just wanted your support, you know, as a party member, as the leader of the state.

Sarah Palin: Um, I would. I would. And it’s no secret that I’m pro-life and I don’t hide that and nor am I ashamed of that but I am pro-life and yes, a, a proposal like that, I would stand by it."

... And in follow-up in the same debate:

Christopher Clark: Let me ask a question that was raised by a member of the audience on this issue. Let’s say your daughter was pregnant or your son was involved in a pregnancy. I mean, it was before marriage or anything like that. What would your reaction be, your reaction and your advice to him or her?

Sarah Palin: Um, again, I would choose life and certainly I’m quite confident that you’re going to be asking my opponents those same scenarios.

Christopher Clark: I will. But if your daughter had been raped, would that be something you would feel would be…

Sarah Palin: Again, I would choose life."

Sarah Palin would make choices for her or for her daughter, and they would be a “very private matter,” but she would take away the ability of every parent or child around the country to make choices in the matter. Above them, she would place her own Writ controlling every woman’s and every child’s body from the Oval Office in Washington, DC.

Marie, you must be the last standing Progressive in the state of Kansas, but I for one deeply appreciate your willingness to share the horrible truth about Palin.

I'm telling you she and Grampy McSame are the realization of the Manchurian Candidate.

Actually, his qualifications are nearly identical to Abraham Lincoln's prior to his election to the Presidency - except that Lincoln never made it to the Senate at a state or national level.

McCain has never held a job in the private sector. Palin has her own bag of questionable associations.

You have got to be kidding, right? Lincoln? Let's see the comparison here. So, you are saying the country is the same as it was when Lincoln took office?

I am sorry, your comment is really ignorant at best to compare the United States today as it was in the 1860's.

Well here's some ignorance you might like. Name your poison.

Sarah Palin's Pastor Muthee.

http://www.youtube.com/watch ...

This one is where the Pastor excorcises Palin of Witchcraft:

http://www.youtube.com/watch ...

Or perhaps you prefer to have Co-VP Todd Palin,(also a 72 year-old heart away from the Presidency) who's a registered member of the Alaska Independence Party:
During the 1970s, Vogler founded Alaskans for Independence to actively pursue secession for Alaska from the United States. In 1984, he founded the AIP to explore whether the 1958 vote by Alaskans authorizing statehood was legal.
The party quotes Vogler as stating "I'm an Alaskan, not an American. I've got no use for America or her damned institutions."[

Yeah, you're right. Those was simpler times, eh? Just slavery and that little Civil War to deal with - what was it now, just 625,000 dead? Wasn't that just the deadliest war in our history? Oh for the good ole days. Those were simple times.

Your predictions are obviously predicated on your Frame Of Reference.

My predictions are based on scripture.

And while I don't want this for you, I do predict, that if you don't change, and come to the acceptance that Jesus Christ is Lord and Saviour, and you are willing to follow His precepts, and to not just give it lip service, you will be whailing and gnashing your teeth one day.
You can't say Jesus Christ is Lord and not believe what His word has to teach us, based on your personal experiences, including American Indian cultures and beliefs.

There is no middle of the road. You can't straddle the fence.
Jesus said you are either for me or against me. You can't worship God and Satan at the same time.

There can only be one Master, and you have to chose who that Master is.

You can't say you believe Jesus, and also say Muslims, or Buddhists, or Pagans will all go to heaven. For that is complete denial of Jesus.

You can't say you believe Jesus, or believe in Him, but not care about what His word says.

Jesus was before anything else was.

John 1:
" 1. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2. He was with God in the beginning.
3. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.'

14. The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.

John referred to Jesus as "the word."
John also wrote the book of Revelation, and again refers to Jesus as "the word."

Revelation 19:
"13. He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and "HIS NAME IS THE WORD" of God.
14. The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean.
15. Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. "He will rule them with an iron scepter." He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty.
16. On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written: "KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS."

Jesus is the King of all Kings, and Lord of all Lords.

In the end, the scripture says, "Every knee shall bow and every tongue confess, that Jesus Christ is Lord." That will happen, but for some it will be TOO LATE!

Jesus does not want a little piece of your heart, you know, that little piece you are willing to extend, perhaps even reluctantly?
He wants your entire heart. It's all or nothing.

Matthew 10:
33. For whosoever denies me before men, so shall I deny him before my Father which is in Heaven.
