IT’S FRIDAY… LIGHTEN UP, FRANCIS

The preceding quote was by Warren Oates as Sgt.Hulka in “Stripes.”
If you knew that, you’ve led a good life.

Thinking about today and reflecting on where we were and where we’re headed I just had to lighten things up a little.

There’s a chill in the air. Fall’s coming. Time to trek to the apple orchard for some apple donuts and cider. I enjoy the fall. It’s what comes just after I’m not too fond of.

Must Add by CtH:  My dd told us recently that she and hubby were trying to clean up their language now that they have a very verbally precocious toddler copying everything they say. But it ain’t easy, what with all the years in the military where cussin’ is just part of the culture. One of my kids mentioned once that coming home was kind of hard, because words she uses every day at work aren’t allowed in my house. I smiled sweetly and told her my delicate princess ears appreciated her efforts on their behalf. Anyway, back to my toddler grandson, who recently hollered from his car seat, “What does that hole tuckus think he’s doing?!”

FOURTEEN YEARS AGO TODAY

Everybody remembers where they were and what they were doing. It’s one of a handful of significant events in one’s life that stand out.

November 22,1963…. I was in 8th grade science class when the principal made the announcement over the loudspeaker

July 20,1969… I was in summer class at Jr.college watching a small black and white TV the professor brought in to watch Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon.

Sept.11,2001… I was gathering dirt uniforms and listening to Don Wade on my portable radio when the newsman broke in to say a plane had hit one of the towers. At first, reports indicated it was accidental. The truth was brought home as we watched the second plane head into the second tower and burst into flame.

For a brief moment the nation came together as we suffered a horror heretofore unknown to us.I thank God we had a strong,moral leader to see us through this heart-wrenching trauma.

It took almost two weeks for the press to get back to their business of smearing the president in every possible way, starting with the video of him reading to a grade school class when an aide came in and whispered about what was happening. He was criticized for not jumping up and running out screaming, for flyimg on Air Force One to a safe location. Did he know about the attack beforehand? Was it an inside job? It must have pained them to hold their tongues for a few days while the nation mourned its lost.

Fast forward 7 years. An unknown mulatto who had no experience doing anything except getting high, doing some streetcorner hustling and having everything handed to him becomes the object of the media’s unbridled passion, who hoisted him on their shoulders and whisked him into the White House with the help of a Republican party who ran as poor a candidate as they could find, who expended more effort destroying his own VP nominee than fighting for the presidency.

Straightaway this America-hating Muslim announced to the world that the lives and treasure sacrificed to try to stabilize the Middle East meant nothing as he planned to turn tail and run as fast as he could.

Cue ISIS, commanded by Saddam’s former military leaders who spread blood and destruction, first to the Kurds and the Yazidis, then spread like a plague. They knew they had nothing to fear from their fellow Muslim who lied to the American people about how we were fighting the enemy.

I firmly believe he tipped off the Taliban to the transport helicopter that was carrying Seal Team Six after they killed bin Laden. You’ll never convince me otherwise.

Then came Sept.11, 2012. I can’t rightly recall where I was but I know where that sad excuse for a human was. He’d gotten word the attack in Benghazi was underway. He turned his back and walked away. He had a big fundraiser in Las Vegas the next day.

Now he’s telling us we have to take in at least 10,000 Syrian “refugees.”

THESE ARE NOT REFUGEES. THESE ARE MUSLIM MEN COMING HERE TO WAGE JIHAD ON OUR SOIL AND HE’S WELCOMING IT!

Signs in the Sky and the 4th Harbinger

A few days before He was crucified, Jesus said that “awesome sights and mighty signs will come from the sky” (Luke 21:11) to alert us to the coming End Times.

Sept 10, 2011: By Jewish reckoning, a new day starts at sunset.  I’m not sure where this photo was taken, but the photographer says the only change she made was to enhance the color slightly. N.b., the 2012 date on her signature is the year she published, not the year she took the photo.  She had it for sale somewhere on the internet, but I’m sorry to say, I’ve lost the link.

Sept 10, 2014: Again, by Jewish reckoning, a new day starts at sunset.  I know this was definitely not photoshopped, because four different people posted their own snapshots of the sunset flag over Richmond, Virginia.

2015_09 TIME misquotes Pope

I am not holding my breath for the pope’s remarks on marriage to be reported by any of the Left’s agitprop “news” organs.

Vatican City, Sep 10, 2015: Pope Francis told couples, “The family – as God wants it, composed of a man and a woman for the good of the spouses and also the generation and education of childrenis deformed by powerful contrary projects supported by ideological colonization.”

Never forget?

Most of us mean “Never Forget” in a good way.  But some people cheered the 9/11 attacks.  Remember Barack Obama’s pastor, screaming about chickens coming home to roost on AmeriKKKa? (Never mind that all the racist bastards under those white hoods were Democrats.)

Is Chrissie Hynde Right About Women Sometimes Being Responsible for Rape?

Short answer: No. But the feminist response to her common sense words were just as ridiculous as her claim that she “took full responsibility” for being gang raped decades ago.
Plenty2j
Rock and roller mom, Chrissie Hynde, has been interviewed several times recently about her controversial assertion that our culture has become overly pornographic and that women need to pull the plug on that by changing their behavior and “stop acting like prostitutes.”

1C9D61D100000578-3227086-image-m-50_1441753191689That seemingly common sense position has provoked a stinging backlash from feminists on both sides of the Atlantic. As Julia Hartley-Brewer from the Telegraph put it, “Chrissie Hynde has committed the ultimate sin for a former feminist icon: She has offended the sisterhood.” That is certainly true, and for that, I applaud Hynde. The feminist notion that the behavior of women can never be criticized, either for local incidents or for more widespread degradation of the culture, is bizarre, and it needs to be confronted.

Furthermore, many of the things she’s stated recently in her interviews are very reasonable. When she criticized pop performers like Miley Cyrus and Rihanna, for example, for behaving like “sex workers” and doing “a great deal of damage,” that can hardly be refuted.

“Since our president won’t say it, since he still won’t call off the dogs. We’ll say it. Police officers and first responders across this great land, we got your back.”

Pope Francis has reformed the annulment process

On September 8, the Holy See released a pair of documents by Pope Francis which reform the way in which the Church handles annulments.

1) What is an annulment? Is it the same thing as a divorce?

A CHURCH annulment (formally known as a “declaration of nullity”) is a ruling that something was so gravely wrong at the time of the wedding that no SACRAMENTAL marriage came into existence. A CIVIL divorce dissolves a CIVIL marriage.

2) Why are annulments an important issue in the Catholic Church?

Jesus Christ expressly taught that if two people divorce and then remarry, they are committing the grave sin of adultery (Mark 10:11-12). Because of this teaching, the Church cannot simply give divorced people permission to remarry. To do so would be to give them permission to commit adultery.

Pope Francis blessed marriage

3) How does the annulment process work?

When a man and a woman have divorced, they can contact the appropriate diocese and have their marriage investigated to see if it was valid. This process could be simple or lengthy, depending on the nature of the case and the forms of evidence available.  A SACRAMENTAL marriage is only valid if both man and woman were free of coercion and fully capable of fully committing to the union at the time the vows were made.   Pregnancy might be one reason a couple felt coerced.  Addiction might be one reason a couple was not capable.

4) What has Pope Francis done?

He has issued two motu proprio documents. A motu proprio is somewhat similar to a presidential executive order in that it is issued on the pope’s initiative for the purpose of establishing or clarifying matters of church administration. Just as a presidential executive order is not supposed to create or change federal law, so too does a motu proprio not deal with church doctrine.

5) Why has Pope Francis done this?

He did so out of a desire to make the annulment process more efficient. In many parts of the world, the process has been notoriously slow and difficult.

6) What changes did Pope Francis make to the process?

Unless you’re familiar with the annulment process, you wouldn’t understand the significance of the changes. But if you care, you can read more at the link below.  These changes take effect December 8, 2015, which will be the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

YOU WERE WORKING, I WAS WATCHING

There was a massive rally in DC today to stop the Iran Deal. Noted conservatives Mark Levin, Ted Cruz, Phil Robertson, Sarah Palin, and The Donald, whose party is unclear. There were thousands of pissed-off patriots in attendance, although the news outlets will put it at “hundreds” or a “sizable’ crowd. In the end, it will make little difference since we are largely ignored by the DC gasbags who want our money and votes but not our voices. They’d just as soon we sat down and shut up. Not gonna happen.

I have posted the videos so you can view the ones you want.
No additional charge

THIS IS THE ENTIRE RALLY… IT RUNS 4 HOURS
