Democrats: Stubborn or Stupid

 http://usbacklash.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/obama-milking-us-economy-dry.cow_.jpg

Is it just me or are there people out there who, no matter what is said or what evidence there is to discredit their beliefs, will continue to walk in error. This election season has evidenced this truth to me in such a profound manner that I feel confused and perplex and a bit frustrated at those who hold their ground, despite it sinking beneath them. So, I wonder... are they being stubborn or are they just plain stupid.

Remember that stupidity is worse than ignorance. Being ignorant is one thing because you don't have knowledge of the facts. Stupidity is worse because you do have the knowledge of the error and you are able to identify the problem and repair it, yet you choose the status quo.

This typifies the Democrat today. They know that Obama has unsuccessfully spent record amounts of tax dollars on "plans" to fix the economy. They know that Obama over-rided the people's will and shoved Obamacare down our throats. They know he has not made a single Presidential visit to Israel, our most-coveted ally. They know his plan to tax the rich doesn't make any sense (because the rich are the ones who employ 90% of America). They know he is an immoral man who promotes the murdering of unborn babies, homosexuality, gay marriage and a variety of other socially immoral issues. They know he lacks any kind of military knowledge/strategy (Benghazi). They know he is purposely deceptive (Benghazi cover-up, broken campaign promises, current campaign lies, and hot mic incident involving his promise the Russian prime minister that "he will have more flexibility after his election.") They know he is fiscally irresponsible ($16 trillion debt over last 3 1/2 years, government sponsored bailouts and misappropriation of funds to companies like Solyndra). They know that unemployment and underemployment is still at record highs. They know people are making less than they did four years ago.

All these are facts not just circulated by the right-winged conservatives and FoxNews. These are all obvious facts anyone can gather from minimal observation. Even the left-wing liberal media won't deny these common facts about our current President.

I guess the answer to the stupid or stubborn question isn't all that hard. They are both. Stubbornness is stupidity. They are stupid for having the knowledge without taking corrective action (voting out Obama) and stubborn for digging in and holding their ground (party loyalty). What is truly stupid is their trying to dig in to get a foothold while their eyes are staring at the sign that reads: Caution: Sink Hole Area.

God's Word - The Moral Compass

A few weeks ago, I was out in my garage organizing a bunch of unwanted items for a garage sale. To kill the silence, I turned on the radio. One of my favorite things to listen to is talk radio, usually on the AM dial. I also like listening to Crosstalk on CleanAirFM, which is what I tuned in to that day. The topic of the discussion that day entailed a photography company being tried in a discrimination case involving their refusal to provide services to a homosexual couple. The photography company clearly stated they reserved the right to withhold services at anytime if the event or business opportunity violated their religiously held beliefs. This is a stipulation many businesses, especially Christian businesses, adopt to protect themselves and their moral standards. The host of the show laid the groundwork for discussion by siding with the photography company saying that it was their right to withhold services and that it was wrong for the courts to proceed with discrimination charge...

"And We Esteemed Him Not"

During a recent Sunday evening service, Pastor Bickelhaupt asked what it was that is so important as to keep church members from attending church when they know the doors are open and services are being held. He went on to say that people willfully reject the prospect of meeting with Christ Himself (as His presence is promised when the church meets together in His name). Jesus promises in Matthew 18:20, “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.”  Pastor implied that there are too many professing Christians who find it preferable to attend the weekly Sunday morning worship hour, but find gracing the church building outside of that service to be merely optional, an inconvenience, or just not that important.   It got me thinking. What could possibly be more important than meeting with the Savior?! Here is Someone Who gave everything for us. He literally sacrificed a heavenly abode for an earthly bed mat, for scripture reveals ...

Making the Case for "Assault"-Style Weapons: It's a Heart Issue

In the wake of the recent school shootings in America, many have asked, "Why do we need access to "assault"-style weaponry as private citizens?" So... here's my take on the Second Amendment. Not to be argumentative... just posing a logical explanation. Let's say our government does begin to radically infringe upon our rights. Let's say a dictatorship does arise. The sole intent of the Founding Fathers to arm its people was to protect against a rogue government.  "But they never envisioned the type of guns we have today." This is the argument of many, which in my estimation falls flat on its face. Though they're right and it's true, the Founders could never have imagined the realm of destruction and devastation our modern-day privately-owned weapons wield. But they also never envisioned a government that has the military weaponry ours does today either. Can you imagine a suppressed citizenry trying to defend with single-s...
