He Has Forgiven (yourloans)!

Did you hear the news? Obama(THHO) has shortened the time frame before forgiving the balance on your student loan! Yay! HE’S GIVING AWAY MORE OF YOUR HARD EARNED DOLLARS THAT YOU PAID IN TAXES. Wake the hell up, people! He’s giving away MORE MONEY that the GOVERNMENT DOES NOT HAVE. Student loans that have been GUARANTEED by the government – using TAX DOLLARS collected BY THE GOVERNMENT – are going to be FORGIVEN. That means that you and I, the TAX PAYING CITIZENS of this country, are footing the bill for hundreds of millions of dollars in student loans.

And you know the sneakiest part? He’s using this as an obvious play for student votes in the next election. Yes, he’s BUYING VOTES using MONEY HE DOES NOT HAVE to BUY THE VOTE of the impressionable young students.

This country cannot take another four years of being spent into oblivion.

Chat ya later…

Thank goodness, the election cycle has come to a resolution.

I won’t say that I am happy with the result, but we do have a clear cut result. No one will be talking about how this election was stolen.

I watched one speech this week – it was McCain’s speech at the Biltmore late Tuesday evening – and it was honest, straight forward, and (IMHO) unifying.

But Cary!” you are probably saying, “Didn’t you want McCain to win?”

Not as much as I wanted Obama to NOT win, if you get my drift.

Re-read the tagline under the title of this blog – the one in red, up where the picture is. Done? Good. Conservative by Nature – neither candidate was conservative, so much for that angle; Christian by Choice – as a Christian, I prayed for a peaceful election, for guidance in how to vote, and that the Lord’s will be done (as Christians are directed to pray). I can’t say I agree with how it turned out, but I am satisfied that it turned out the way God wanted it to.

If you have read the Bible any at all, you will realize that there are many times that God uses someone (not necessarily one of His own) to affect a course of action. The best example I can think of is Pharaoh – if he hadn’t persecuted and then chased the Israelites, where would the Nation of Israel have ended up? And, having defeated the Egyptian army, who was crazy enough to stop the Israelites after that?

God uses who He wants, when He wants. I am confident that whatever happens in the near future, God will have already laid it out. After all, Christians know how the story ends – and we know Who wins.

Will it be comfortable? No. Will it be easy? No. Will it be worth working through? You bet your sweet bippy – one thing is for sure, this nation won’t put up with more than four years of Obamunism. I have been asked if I thought there would be an assassination attempt on Obama – my answer is, I wouldn’t bet against it, but it’s not a for sure thing.

Above all, remember that this too shall pass.

You may find this hard to believe, but this will be the last you hear me speak ill of the President Elect. Once he is sworn in, he is the leader of this country. As such, I will not contribute to the division of this country by naysaying the President. I may express an opinion different from his (ok, this will probably happen every time he opens his mouth) but I will not outright decalre that he is not fit for the job. His being in that office is God’s movement, and it will be for the overall good of this country, even if it means this wountry gets torn apart for a while.
