Prayers going out for the shooting victims and their families

I wasn't going to post or comment this weekend, but on this stormy Saturday, I just listened to some of the most powerful words from the families of the Charleston victims. They said: "I will never be able to hold her again, but I forgive you," a daughter of Ethel Lance said. "And have mercy on your soul. You hurt me. You hurt a lot of people but God forgives you, and I forgive you." Felicia Sanders -- mother of victim Tywanza Sanders and a survivor of the church shooting herself -- ...

Upon awakening this morning I turned on news and could not believe what I was hearing. I thought at first maybe this was the anniversary of Columbine shooting. Then on further listening and waking up, I realized this was entirely different setting and present day. Tragically enough, 12 had died at a theater in Aurora, Colorado while watching Batman sequel Dark Knight Rising. Strangely the audience in theater thought this was part of the showing and were not alarmed at fir ...

My daughter's college roommate lost both of her parents on Flight #93 a month before her wedding. Truly said even though we did not actually know them. My daughter has kept in touch with this roommate. They live close to one another and their kids go to the pool together a lot. When my daughter was watching some of the 9/11 memorials yesterday she became a little teary and her son asked her what was wrong. She tried to explain things to him on his level.& ...

Obama said there would be no red tape... no one left behind... blah blah blah. Just more of his lies to make sure he was reelected. Oh well, he got his photo op and LOOKED like a hero. Admit it, Dems, if Bush was still in office, you would be villifying the man over and over again, hypocrites ! ...

Prayers are asked for the residents of Pateros, WA and other communities in North Central Washington State. Due to dry weather, winds and ligthning, we are having the worst fire season in years. Many homes have been destroyed by fire and people have been left homeless, other communities in our area are threatened. Hopefully we will get rain and the firefighters will get a break. Also, ask God to bless the men and women on the front lines working to keep us safe, thank you ...

My family has been struggaling financially for a long time. My husband has worked hard at terrible jobs to keep a roof over our heads. Part of it is our own choices and part just trying to find a good steady job. I stay at home with the kids and am trying to get a work from home job as an MT to help out and still not send our kids to the babysitters. I am not complaining because we are so blessed. My husband just has an immense burden and I do not know how to help h ...

My heart goes out to the victims of the storm. If any of you are reading this my prayers are with you. More than I can say for a someone who claims to care. Here's a video calling attention to how President Obama abandoned those who are recovering from Hurricane Sandy to go back on the campaign trail: http://weeklystandard.com/blogs/video-sandy-victims-beg-help_660345.html If he at least cared maybe he'd get more votes. ...

The parents of two of the four Americans who died in the Benghazi attack in 2012 filed a lawsuit Monday against Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, alleging her "reckless handling" of classified information contributed to their deaths.

Yes. (This is from the Washington Post. The "through W's terms" are my words. His are below. Note the graph--that vertical axis is our debt as we try to maintain, not yet realizing that falling or stagnant wages are not just a temporary aberration.) TRUE. President Obama: "By 2008, we had seen nearly a decade in which families struggled with costs that kept rising but paychecks that didn’t; racking up more and more debt just to make the mortgage or pay tuition; to put gas in th ...

Bloomberg's ban prohibits 2-liter soda with your pizza and some nightclub mixers The city Health Department last week began sending brochures to businesses that would be affected by the latest ban, including restaurants, bars and any “food service” establishment subject to letter grades. And merchants were shocked to see the broad sweep of the new rules. “It’s not fair. If you’re gonna tell me what to do, it’s no good,” said Steve DiMaggio of Caruso’s in Cobble Hil ...

This is a video and print link from San Diego's CBS affiliate. Note the last sentence, "They will have 15 days to report to an ICE agent." They won't report. They never do.

SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - Protestors are planning additional demonstrations on both sides of the immigration debate, as more undocumented migrants are set to arrive Friday. Supporters gathered outside the San Ysidro ...

My brother died from Crack addiction 30 years. Now my son has the same problem. This is a living hell to go through for the families. Instead of just asking for prayer for me and my family I ask that you pray for all the drug addicts and their families. If it could help any of them it would be so great. I see no end in site for my family and I know there are probably families going through worse than mine. If there was a cure for this the person who invented ...

Thank you for your service in honoring and protecting America and her people. Happy Veterans Day and may God bless you always. ...

As I sat crying while watching Francine Wheeler give the White House Weekly Address, I tried to put myself in her shoes and imagine what I would do in similar circumstances. Probably just curl up in a ball and want to die myself, but if I ever came out of it, I would imagine that I would put whatever energy I had into exactly the same kind of efforts that she and her husband and other Sandy Hook families are now doing. It is indeed a "disservice" to these families to imply they are mere pr ...

Just got word from my sister that her husband's 2 nephews were in that school. They were not injured/killed. They witnessed the shootings, however. Some children in their neighborhood will not be coming home ever again. How tragic. Keep them in your prayers. ...

How tragic at least 15 day in a school shooting at a community college in Oregon. When will it stop and how do WE make it stop. These kids just started school the 28th and had their whole lives to look forward to. Now, they some wack job has taken that away from them. How utterly heartbreaking. My prayers and love go to those who have to endure the pain of this tragedy. ...

If you want to find stable two-parent families, bypass Palin country and go to Pelosi territory. by Jonathan Rauch Saturday, May 1, 2010 Can it be? One of the oddest paradoxes of modern cultural politics may at last be resolved. The paradox is this: Cultural conservatives revel in condemning the loose moral values and louche lifestyles of "San Francisco liberals." But if you want to find two-parent families with stable marriages and coddled kids, your best bet is to bypass S ...

Just FYI there is going to be a meteor shower tonight with an estimated peak time of 6 am for ET and 3 am for PT.
