Ted Cruz Is The Zodiac Killer?!?


But I Saw It On The Internet!! By Eric Power


The similarity is striking....! Ok no, not really.
I take back everything positive I've ever said about Ted Cruz. To think that he is so diabolical that he could actually be the Zodiac Killer, who started his murder spree in 1968, (some say as early as 1964) when Cruz was born in 1970. I mean, really, you just can't get any more evil than that! Killing people before you were even a twinkle in your Daddy's eye. I mean, isn't that the Republican way, after all??
Bad, Cruz, bad!!!



Okay, clearly, this story is preposterously and obviously false.

The Case For A Constitutional Revival



I'm going to cut right to the chase. In a nutshell, I think that Donald J. Trump is a living, breathing nightmare. If it comes down to Trump and Hillary or Sanders, I am stating unequivocally and without regret, I will not vote for the Donald. I cast my last vote for the (slightly) lesser of two evils for the last time in 2012. Never again.

9-11-2001: A Remembrance; A Look Forward

A Reckoning is Coming by Eric Power

14 years. 9-11-2001 was 14 years ago today. At times it seems like it was a thousand years ago and other times, like it was yesterday. God bless all those who perished and the families they left behind. God bless our soldiers who still fight to this day, this never-ending war against Evil. An evil, like ISIS, that has distilled itself into a demonic purity. Raping women. Children. Crucifying them.
Drowning Christians in shark cages, while videotaping their deaths. Immolation, decapitation; nothing is taboo for these cretins. This battle has never been more clear than it is today, yet it seems so muddy in the way that we compromise and negotiate and turn our heads from what we should be taking notice of. It's the epitome of irony that on this anniversary of 9-11, we are on the precipice of a deal with Iran, which will effectively hand to them the nukes to vaporize Israel, all the while claiming it will stop them from reaching that goal. Our "government" is crafting this suicide pact while the Iranians are publicly screaming for the death of our nation, as well as Israel's.

Defund Planned Parenthood! How Can This Continue?!?

Normally, I take great enjoyment in producing my articles. From the formatting, to finding pictures, blending humor with my written word and my picture captions, and providing links for the evidence that I've researched. With the topic today, I just can't do my usual production. There is no humor to be found in this issue, and no related pictures that I care to caption. I can only write of the raw emotion that comes from learning of this particular subject.Here is a link to the Center For Medical Progress, the organization that has done the investigative exposé, to see the videos in question. This is something I was strongly compelled to write, from a few different sources; I wasn't about to say no. Please take something away from this! I've never really been one to ask people to share my posts; I'm asking you to please share this one.  It's vitally, crucially important on a national scale that this conversation starts happening, sooner rather than later. Thank you!

Update: 8-20-15 I've recently created a Pinterest board for my blog; apparently the only way to pin something is for there to be a picture within the link for it to "pin". So I've added one picture to appease the Pinterest devil. Ugh. 

Lions Over Lambs by Eric Power


     
The recent events involving Planned Parenthood and the video documentations of the vile practices that occur there have, quite frankly, left me thoroughly despondent about the future of our society and mankind. I just can't fathom how to combat this perfect, pure evil that would make Hitler and Stalin envious.
Furthermore, the pitifully tepid response that the videos have gotten from our country, as a whole, is horrifying and quite revealing of the downward spiral into Hell that our culture finds itself in. If something such as this cannot pull us back from the brink of darkness, then I surely don't know what will. The videos are unspeakably horrific, each one released more grotesque (either in word or deed) than the last. I can't imagine how it could get any worse; are they puréeing them for smoothies?? Soylent Green??? (I apologize for that mental image...but what could possibly be left?!?) We can't be bothered to care about babies being chopped up by these vampires and sold to baby part ghouls, but somehow the national fur flies when a lion in Zimbabwe is killed during a hunt by some dentist from Michigan. If it didn't involve such a ghastly, macabre state of affairs, it would be laughable. When I recently came back from my self-imposed exile of news/current events and all things political, I thought it was bad then! It has deteriorated rapidly since September of 2014 and continues to do so with no sign of slowing, let alone halting. ISIS torturing and slaughtering Christians by the thousands, mass riots in America, movie theater and church massacres; it is quickening to a breakneck pace towards absolute damnation.

We Interrupt This Regularly Scheduled Programming...

A Throwback Article


***So literally 3 days after I launch the blog, I received some life-altering news that has completely turned my family's whole world upside down; and not in a good way, I might add. So, as you might imagine, blogging has really been just about the last thing on my mind. Whenever I attempt to sit down and pound something out on the keyboard, I slam straight into the impassable wall - WRITER'S BLOCK. It's a thousand feet tall and made of Adamantium (for all of you Wolverine fans out there). I hope, someday, to actually use my love of writing to assist me in my therapy and healing; unfortunately, that time has not yet come. Until it does, I hope it may suffice to post some past articles that I have written, mainly for Facebook. For the time being, until I put some semblance of my world back together, I hope these articles (somewhat beefed up to make them more blog-worthy) will give you some reading enjoyment! Please pray for my family and me as we work through this difficult time. Thank you!***

 This particular piece that I wrote was in response to an actual news story! The University of Colorado Springs had posted some rape defense tips which had come to be noticed during the gun control debates that occurred last year, after the December 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary that was responsible for 26 senseless, awful murders. The University defended these tips as a last resort method when all other tactics have failed. I'm not sure what they are referring to with "all other tactics". It's peculiar, though, that they left out the ONE strategy that would be the most effective deterrent to a rapist: a GUN.

**************************************************************************

These are some actual helpful tips from the University of Colorado
Springs for women facing a possible rapist. These people are so smart it's no wonder they are college administrators. I feel so dumb in their presence. I've added my own highly uneducated responses after the tip.

Welcome!

The Birth of a Blog 





Welcome! Some of you may be seeing me for the first time, while others may know my writing from my guest posts over on The Ratrace Losers blog. I wrote a number of articles as a guest author over there, and Chad, the blog owner, was so kind and gracious to allow me an outlet for my thoughts. I have always wanted to strike out on my own, and due to some life circumstances (nothing bad) that have occurred, I finally have! So I want to take the opportunity to properly introduce myself to you and tell you what I'm all about.

A Father's Retrospective of September 11th

My Daughter Won't... by Eric Power


Twelve years have passed since that terrible, fateful Tuesday in 2001, when 19 Muslim extremists perpetrated the worst terrorist attack on American soil in the history of our country. They killed nearly 3000 innocent civilians, and brought down or heavily damaged the symbols of economic prosperity, freedom and military might, ideals that have put this country at the top of the list in world history. They may have done more if not for a group of patriots on United Flight 93, who chose to fight and ultimately perish for their country, rather than dying to further the twisted goals of their hijackers. We didn't know it at the time, but the terrorists did something else that day. Whether intentionally or by accident, they set in motion an inexorable change in our nation from which we've yet to recover. Ever since 9-11-2001, our country, in particular our government, has changed to the point where I barely recognize it. What has disappeared in the last dozen years, we may never reclaim.
