The Vifl

Ok its time for me to stop sitting idly by and slam the iron curtain on the political arena.I’m married and have a job so all my life consists of is wake up, work, news, and bed. I am no expert but I know what is going on in my country. Oh and Jacob here comes the real condecending so hang on to your fissured ass crack. First off its unfair to use the term “smartest Christians” towards this subject because its not just a “Christian” problem. If we were getting run out of our chruches sure “JEsus thing” but its an American thing. So all of us as responsible Americans and Christians should be informed but not having a formed opinions as a Christian shouldn’t be a fault. If you remember some dude was once asked the question should we pay taxes…. and he said “Give to cesar what is cesar and to God what is God’s”. I think that guys name was OH YEAH JESUS. Ok thers my into now for the body and eventually the conclusion maybe even a climax in there if you guys are luck (I love you MRS B).

So lets talk about Abortion, The Economy, War on OIL, Foreign Policy, and Homeland Security

Abortion.

He is opposed completely to partial birth abortion and merely wants to reduce regular abortion.
He opposed RU-486 then accepted its approval by the FDA in 2000.
He supports adoption tax credits. (Reduce abortion more pple adopting)
He wants minor notification. Tell ur parents suzy if your 12 and wanna kill a baby basically.
And finnaly he is commited to not spending a dime of tax payer money on abortion

Economy

Basically hes like any other president all he can do is spend or not spend cut or not cut. If you spend taxes you need more taxes but you get more jobs. If you cut spending less taxes and less jobs. Kinda a catch 22. What this lazy ass country my not understand this is a country of capitalism. Make something of yourself. All to often we look to the great power of gov’t to lick our economic wounds. Tell me this how many times in your own life have you been just too tired to go into work, now mutiply that by over 100 million people when you’ve got 80 million mexicans chomping at the bit to work our jobs. So our president created over 4 million jobs over the course of 2 years in the same year 2 million jobs were lost.Some say well we’re shippin jobs off to India. Yeah I think Bush is in control of ever economic and corporate entity in the country. I’m sure Bush makes all fo Gates decisions as well as Turners and as well as Eisners. As far as economy goes bush has cut taxes and spending. So there is less money going out of our pockets but there is less “FREE” money out there. GO EARN IT AMERICA jeez.

OIL (bum bum buuuuummmmm)

Oh my gosh the world cant run without oil its getting so exspensive its well over 50 bucks a barrel what will we ever do I know we’ll oppress peace loving oil countries like Kuait and the Sauidi’s. Wait no we took a dictator out in the 3rd lowest OPEC country. Fact check alaska and Canada have more oil than IRAQ. IN FACT canada may have more oil than the entire world. How’s that Ryan your crazy. Let me tell you little ones. Oil SHale my friends. Basically Oil soaked rock not coal but shale, call vikki beumer if you don’t remember what shale is. Oil shale has never been processed because it would cost close to 50 dollars a barrel to produce and thats when oil was like 25 dollars a barrel. Now its over 50 hmmm, But wait there’s more its projected oil will drop to under 40 dollars a barrel and we will enjoy 2 dollar gas once again this summer. How did it drop so fast all of the sudden did they find more. Nay I tell you the whole oil thing is about as crooked as CCS parent meetings. Smoke and mirrors and all a President can do is try to be nice to the ones that give us oil so we all don’t freeze to death in feburary. But little ones don’t forget Canada has enough oil in its oil shale till 2850. We might just might find alternative sources by then. I can’t sit here and not think that OIL and money doesn’t make the world go round. Sucks but is a fact. Would you rather have a president who sits on his laurels and runs out of energy or one that doesn’t and does politically what every other president has done…. keep oil in the country cheaply. I personally don’t think the war was for oil or to take our eyes off of not finding bin laden but a genuince pre-immanent strike cuz we didn’t want a second 911. ok I”m getting of oil

Finnaly Homeland security

I have one point to make. I fly alot and I’m not scared not once because the guy as the security check point owes me a dinner after that. But in all seriousness its easy. We were attacked and it sucked. Has it happened again…. no, so Bush did his job.Bush’s job is to protect me my family you guys all Americans. He’s doing an incredible job don’t think you can deny that.

No president has faced so much adversity with so little support. When pearl harbor was bombed (military mind you not civilian) We all rallied behind the president and fought the Germans and Japanese etc etc and men died and women started working in factories and we rallied around our gov’t. So when terrorist take down several civilian planes and kill innocent non military lives (military know they may die in duty not too many stock brokers think that) and we only rally around him for a year at best please America. Who cares if you think saddam had weapons or not he sucked he was a total murderous deutche. There was barely enough energy and water in iraq for the middle class and he live in gold lined palaces and tested mustard and nerve gas on civilians just to see its effects. If somebody just killed my mom and pointed what looked like a gun at my dad and I had a gun I’d shoot first and let God sort it out. So here to maybe the most under appreciated president of all time good job giving the world a united front america.

Remember this above all the other bantering I’ve done. The most important thing is to love God and support Him fully. Remember the whole passage about if a nation will humble themseves before God He’ll fix everything that sucks. Yeah I subscribe to that. So I’m gonna feel safe traveling and I’m gonna go out and take advantage of our robust economy cuz I’m not lazy and I”m gonna put 2 dollar gas in my car this fall. Booya
