For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

The interview

Jorge Ramos: in his first interview for a half in Spanish, accompany us here, in the Studio, Robert Zimmerman, brother of George Zimmerman. Thanks for being with us.

Robert Zimmerman: Many, Jorge, thank you.

Jorge Ramos: and via satellite, his mother, Gladys Zimmerman, who for security reasons does not want to show his face. Mrs. Zimmerman, thanks for being with us.

Gladys Zimmerman: Anything, good morning George.

Jorge Ramos: Let me start. You certainly Peruvian and speaks the Spanish perfectly, and this is going to be much easier this interview with you. The first question is, where George is at the moment. (more…)

Obama Worshipper Jamie Fox: “I Get To Kill All The White People … How Great is That”

(Via GWP) The racist Hollywood Actor/Comedian who recently proclaimed President Obama as “our lord and savior“, appeared on NBC’s Saturday Night Live proclaiming his thrill at getting to kill whitey in the opening monologue;  and like good little indoctrinated white-guilt liberal idiots the New York crowd roars with approval…..

 “I got a new movie coming out ‘Django Unchained’. And in the movie I got to wear chains.  But don’t be worried about it because in the movie I get out of the chains.  I get free.  I save my wife and I kill all the white people in the room.  How great is that?”

Reverse the races and can you even imagine if a white actor said how great it was to kill all the black people in a room? (more…)

S.P.E.N.D.I.N.G P.R.O.B.L.E.M. – Feds Deficit Spend/Borrow $4,800,000,000.00 per day ($4.8 Billion)

Humor in NatureYet for some insufferable reason the truth of this fiscal insanity cannot penetrate the blood brain barrier of infected congresscritters.

(CNSNews.com) – The federal government ran a deficit of $292 billion for the first two months of fiscal year 2013 – October and November 2012 – amounting to $4.8 billion of borrowed money each day.

“The federal budget deficit was $292 billion for the first two months of fiscal year 2013, $57 billion more than the shortfall recorded in October and November of last year,” CBO said in its Monthly Budget Review Friday.

This means that the government borrowed $4.8 billion for each calendar day so far in 2013.

If the Treasury Department restricted its borrowing to only weekdays, its per day average would jump to $6.5 billion per day thus far in fiscal year 2013. CBO reported that federal revenues rose by $30 billion – a 10 percent increase over last year, but spending increased more, going up by $87 billion or 16 percent.  (more)

The Second Sunday Of Advent

Advent-wreath-wk2-mGospel Lk 3:1-6

In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar,
when Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea,
and Herod was tetrarch of Galilee,
and his brother Philip tetrarch of the region
of Ituraea and Trachonitis,
and Lysanias was tetrarch of Abilene,
during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas,
the word of God came to John the son of Zechariah in the desert.
John went throughout the whole region of the Jordan,
proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins,
as it is written in the book of the words of the prophet Isaiah:
A voice of one crying out in the desert:
“Prepare the way of the Lord,
make straight his paths.
Every valley shall be filled
and every mountain and hill shall be made low.
The winding roads shall be made straight,
and the rough ways made smooth,
and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.”

Mailboxes and Old Barns: Christmas Past

Dad included this Christmas thought in a letter to Mom dated December 15, 1925, as they were anticipating their marriage in April of 1926:

“Now we are nearing the beautiful Christmas time when we shall pause and see our Christ as the little child who came to save us.  May we be as children and accept Him in our hearts, to dwell there through the years that may come for us.  Christmas always means more to children than to grownups, so I guess we should all be children again for a day or two in order to receive the true Christmas gift.”

Sixty-five years after he mailed that, I mailed the following to Mom, now 85 years old in 1990: (more…)

Knockout – Pac Man Knocked Out Cold !!

Marquez took care of all of his business Saturday night with a thunderous right hand that left Manny Pacquiao face first on the canvas with his remarkable career in question.

Unable to win a decision in their first three fights, Marquez won the old-fashioned way with a huge right hand that put Pacquiao down for the second time in the fight at 2:59 of the sixth round.  […]

Pacquiao was down for about two minutes before his handlers managed to get him up as Marquez celebrated and the sold-out crowd at the MGM erupted.

After being helped to his corner, Pacquiao sat on a stool, blew his nose and stared vacantly ahead as his handlers cut his gloves off. It was a stunning end to a furious fight, and Pacquiao was later taken to a hospital for precautionary examination. (full story)

Tax Fail: California Tax Revenues Lowest EVER even after massive tax hike……

To quote Forest Whitaker: “Hey eddie, do you think I need to lose some weight“?

Forest WhitakerCALIFORNIA – California State Controller John Chiang has announced that total state revenue for the month of November 2012 fell $806.8 million, or 10.8%, below budget.

Democrats thought they could hammer “the rich” by convincing voters to pass Proposition 30 to create the highest state income tax in the nation. But it now appears that high income earners have already “voted with their feet” by moving themselves and their businesses out of state, resulting in over $1 billion shortfall in corporate and income taxes last month and the beginning of a new financial crisis.

The guy is totally looped, he just threw 3 lbs of fresh meat into a red hot cast iron skillet. He’s frying bacon naked.

Firstly, We know ABC’s Matt Gutman recorded the entire interview with no issues. Therefore if the copy provided to FDLE contains starts and stops it’s because The Scheme Team “started and stopped it”, ie. THEY EDITED IT. (more…)
