a little perspective

"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path."
Psalm 119:105


Unfortunate timing

posted Friday, June 29, 2007 :: 1:25 PM

Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid annouce a new effort to end the war just as London police diffuse a deadly car bomb filled with gasoline, propane, and nails, reminding everyone that the terrorists are still out there and are still trying to kill us. (On a side note, racial issues top the Democrat debate agenda? And that is not a joke?)

 

In positive news, the immigration bill went down in flames; this is terribly relevant because we just learned that Al Qaeda is paying a Mexican gang $50,000 a head to smuggle its operatives into the U.S. Now is hardly the time for amnesty. World Net Daily asks its readers what the government should do now that the bill has been defeated. Here's an idea: how about enforce the immigration laws we already have? Stop rewarding people for breaking the law, and stop jailing border patrol agents for doing their job.

I am researching the holy days which were instituted by God as a celebration of the Messiah, instead of celebrating the holy days which were instituted by man to honor nature in place of nature's God.
