It takes everyone liberal and conservative to run the politics of the engine we call America! Patrotic American warriors defend with their life the right of pacifists to hold the wrong opinions. The Blogmaster harbors some populist ideas and believes in free enterprise as opposed to corporate monopoly capitalism. This is a mostly GOP friendly blog. jdm
This is Friday evening and with short notice (it is not on Bethany's calender) Saturday at 3Pm the Oklahoma County ( now called Metropolitan) Library System will allow the GLBT to promote their life style in your taxpayer supported library. Methinks they had inside help on this maneuver .It is obvious that the Bethany Library was selected as part of the Gay/Lesbian/Bi-sexual/Transgendered hate campaign against Rep. Sally Kern as it is located in the heart of her district. Surely advance notice of this gathering of gays, lesbians, bisexuals and other sexual preference activists to show off their marketing film for this aberrant life style should have been given. Surely parents have the right to expect that their child will not be exposed to life styles they consider aberrant at a once trusted institution such as a library. Perhaps those days are over and libraries should be privatized. Someone in this system needs to take a deep breath and smell God's common sense roses.

A viewer of the film said... "families held the belief that homosexuality is a sin until they had a child who is homosexual. I wonder if their children were to grow up to be thieves, would it now be ok to steal? What if they were liars or murderers? Jesus said in Matt. chapter 10 verse 37, “He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.” We all want to see our children go to heaven, but we as parents can’t get them there. God will judge them by his standards regardless of much it breaks our hearts. Pray for your children. The Lord is long suffering. He may still bring them to repentance."
Oklahoma Country's Metropolitan Library system needs to remember they are funded by mostly tax paying voting Christians in the heart of the bible belt and get off this Politically Correct Bandwagon they have been on for a decade.
Call them... Now

The time is now!
How can you set there with that smug look on your face ...
eternity comes fast and you don't know your place ...
Fate is standing in the dark shadows playing to your pride ...
and here you are unconcerned like time was on your side ...
The day will come when your ladder of life has no more rungs ...
and all your choices will expire with the breath in your lungs. ..
The nearest Bible can help you make your choice of eternal habitation ...
for you can find Christ Jesus in every book from Genesis to Revelation. ..

Poem of my youth...composed on October 23, 2006
Tracks of a friend in the snow
I have lain on the path of bone chilling fear ...
watched as the death angel hovered near ...
Midnight I rode the trail where black lion stalked ...
my steed snorting his course stayed.. balked ...
I lost my seat and the moon swirled around ...
my head was the first to kiss frozen ground ...
My body bounced down the Arbuckles crag ...
the earth drank my blood and there I laid ...
and dreamed the dream of death’s opening door ...
of life unlived and path’s untracked with joy untasted ...
my future my claim on living gone as I lay wasted ...
but awareness came as light chased away the night ...
My companion grazed close by had kept the cat away ...
snow tracks around my death bed testified to his stay ...
my shirt red soaked with life’s precious fluid staining the ground ...
I drug my pain racked body to the saddle and started down ...
past the still waiting mountain lion eyes peering from thick weeds ...
the smell of my blood kept him waiting to quench his savage needs ...
I looked back as he smelled my blood spilled in the snow where I lay ...
then followed us for awhile before turning to find unguarded prey ...
Danpatch went to equine heaven during the next season’s winter strife ...
But in my dreams I still count the tracks of my friend who saved my life.

jdm10/23/2006 based on a true occurrence with some literary license applied...My dad was a cowboy and Danpatch had been his favorite horse until he was retired to be my horse. At the time of the poem Danpatch was over twenty years old and I was 12.
Don't Tread on My Flag
We must be very concerned about who we elect as President and Commander in Chief...They must be willing to affirm the Christian roots of this country and the heritage of free enterprise and religious freedom. The must disavow any connection to any other world opinion than one that puts American interests first! They must pledge to never be the instrument of American submission to any authority that subverts the High Law of the Constitution of the United States.At the very least as a potential Commander In Chief of United States Armed Forces they must be able pass and receive a personal Top Secret Clearance background check that we demand of our defenders.God Bless the USA Keep us Free!
