WHY A DEMOCRAT? (3)
This is the third in the series of Linden’s postings which are concerned with why, after the continuing disasters that have occurred since the democrats gained control of Congress in 2006, one would still support that party.

The first raised the possibility of being mentally impaired. The next addressed brainwashing, perhaps by a college professor. Now, let us consider the possibility of family tradition. It could be that this ties in with the first posting.

Is it possible that there are those that say things like, “Mama was a democrat so I am one too!” It never occurs to these people that the democrat party of the current time has little in common with the democrat party of fifty years ago. Could it be that many blacks fall into this category? How can one logically explain why, year after year, 90% of black voters support democrats? After all, this is the party that has insured that illegitimate birth will be the standard now for young black girls and that there is little place for a husband in the current black family. This is only the tip of that iceberg in which many black preachers are at fault.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
Friday: Had computer problems. Picked up my mail and did a load of wash. Watched a TV movie in the evening—this new TV is gonna ruin me—I’m even less productive that I once was.

Saturday: Got up extra early and napped later. Went to the post office and by the Mooresville book store—saw Diana and Bob from Secondhand Stories there. Listened to some opera and an I.U. basketball game.

Sunday: Attended church and Sunday school. Watched the Colts game, Bill came by for a minute and I had a very nice evening meal and good conversation at Kent and Donna’s. Sam sent me some pictures of our Thanksgiving get together. I look pretty ugly.
-----
LINDEN'S BOOKS & CD:
Linden’s only distribution source, Secondhand Stories, closed November 20. He will need to find one or at most two new places to offers his one CD and eight books. Until then, if you must have one or more of his productions, I suppose you can contact him at LWDcomment@aol.com .

He still needs to sell a few more items to ensure funding of a fishing boat and net through IDES for some needy family. His 2009 efforts have already funded two goats and a water buffalo.

BIBLE STUDY:
NOVEMBER 27, 28, 29

FOREIGN CONTROL:
Foreign control, as elaborated on in the link to the article below, is not one of the things we should desire for our country. They, in Italy, appear to be resisting as they should.

Linden sees evidences that our own country is moving in that wrong-headed direction. Examples would be in the areas of gun control, court systems, and the effect of man on temperature. These efforts should be resisted to the fullest extent!

LINDEN'S LIFE:
I, as usual, joined the Friedman family for a Thanksgiving buffet at what I still think of as The Officer’s Club at Fort Harrison for a Thanksgiving buffet. I ate until I could hold no more. Everything was delicious. The salmon was the best ever (I intend to make another effort to duplicate that taste) and the bread pudding was also very, very good. Shirley gave me a beautiful South Dakota 2010 calendar and Sam used the computer to show me some pictures of their trip there. The Friedman’s are a blessing to me.
Later, Julie, Kenneth, and Jade came by and we spent several hours letting Jade entertain us. She has a mind of her own, is walking very well, although she fell a few times. She can say “Granddad” very well. All of these things plus a call from Brian provided me with a very good Thanksgiving day.

DANIEL 2:24 – 3:30
Daniel interpreted the dream of the king to mean that a kingdom would come in the future which would last forever. The king gave Daniel a high position and made his friends, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego administrators. These three, later, because they would not worship the golden statue that the king had made, were thrown into a fiery furnace. GOD saved them.

Peter concludes his instructional letter with words about love, service, and the eldership.

GLOBAL COOLING, AGAIN:
Since starting this blogging effort, Linden has posted over 500 different items. Of these, at least five have been on the subject of global cooling.

It is now being reported in all but the lamestream (Sarah Palin’s word) media that there has been unearthed a conspiracy to further the aims of the global warming scientific community and to attempt to hide the truth. If it develops that the reports of global warming are a hoax, consider the effects.

For starters, many of those in positions of importance will be revealed as supportive of the fraud. Also, there would be no need to go to small cars, not drill for oil, pass the cap and tax bill, change from the currently most used light bulbs and who knows how many other items. I wonder when the LSM will start to cover this happy development.

BE VERY AFRAID:
With the news that the Senate is moving ahead with the ill advised health care bill, those of us who have a smidgeon of fiscal sanity are well advise to be very afraid. How did we arrive at a point in the history of our country when so many of those YOU elected have so little regard for the foundational beliefs of the country?

Linden does not have the answer to the above question. Nor, does he have the answers to two of the questions which could be posed as the result of reading two of the links provided below. Such as: how could a patriotic media sell the country on electing someone such as Obama and how could they support the trying of KSM in a civilian court? Perhaps treason is a word that could be applied here. You may wish to direct your friends to these links.

Fortunately, the liberty bell link is uplifting.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
Friday: Men’s Prayer Breakfast at 6:00—Sandi came to clean my living quarters while I was there. As I was on my way to meet Julie, I dropped off some recyclable cell phones I had gotten at Secondhand Stories at Brentwood school. I went to Bob Evans to meet Julie and, after I got seated, remembered that I was to meet her at Cracker Barrel. We had a nice visit.

Saturday: Men’s Prayer Breakfast at Kingsway—talked to a guy there who was in the same relatively small effort that I was part of in my days in the Air Force. Our duties were not remotely similar. Later, went to a writers group meeting and watched or listened to some sporting events. Also, talked to Brian, Sheri and Alison.

Sunday: Church, Sunday school and brunch with friends. Watched a football game and went to church in the evening for a welcome home reception for Jim and Dottie Meyer. They just returned after serving four years at Haus Edelweiss. The reception was nicely done.

THURSDAY'S PAPER:
Linden, although he often wonders why, subscribes to The Indianapolis Star…he enjoys working the Sudoku puzzle but is often irritated with the news content and especially the selection of columnists for the editorial page.

An Associated Press (ugh) article reported that democrats largely supported the administration decision to try terrorist murderers in New York City. A rudderless ship…crazy!

Another article reported that Senator Byrd is now the longest “serving” Senator. Another reason to support term limits!

The Associated Press reported that Johnny Depp (whoever he is) was judged by People Magazine (whatever that is) to be the “sexiest man alive” (whatever that is.) None of Linden’s friends were polled. Tripe!

A 21 year old woman pled guilty to neglect because she didn’t stop her boyfriend from beating her 15 month old daughter to death with a belt. Others were also present! The perils of co-habitation! The boyfriend claimed that the child failed to show him respect. One wonders (among other things) how he earned the respect he felt was his due.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
Another less than perfect night for sleeping. Had our usual Thursday morning breakfast meeting…Paul was absent. I met Sam at The Milano Inn to provide him with his birthday lunch. It, as usual was very enjoyable and I brought some of the food home and ate it in the evening. As I was leaving, I thought, probably because of my many long term friends, of Lefty Frizzel singing “My Old Pal.” I couldn’t find a You Tube video of it but linked to another of his songs for you.

A TRAITOR, A HERO, A WARNING:
Surely there are few in the U.S. and maybe even the world who are not aware of the murders committed by Major Nidal Hasan in Fort Hood, TX. Since the knowledge is so pervasive, Linden will not recap the event but he will share a few of his opinions with you.

In his opinion, Hasan should be tried for treason and, since the evidence is so overwhelming, be quickly executed.
In his opinion, his fellow and superior officers who failed to properly address the situation should be investigated for dereliction of duty.
In his opinion, the current democrat governmental “leadership” will want to walk very softly in pursuing the above two recommendations. They, too, should be investigated for dereliction of duty.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
Had an enjoyable session with my Study Buddy followed by biscuits and gravy at Chick-fil-A. For probably the last time, visited Secondhand Stories—I hope maybe to see Diana sometime after Thanksgiving. Saw one of my doctors in the afternoon—got a not very painful shot and had a nice visit. Dinner and program in the evening at church.

LINDEN'S BOOKS & CD:
Linden’s only distribution source, Secondhand Stories, is scheduled to close November 20. He will need to find one or at most two new places to offers his one CD and eight books. Until then, if you must have one or more of his productions, I suppose you can contact him at LWDcomment@aol.com .

He still needs to sell a few more items to ensure funding of a fishing boat and net through IDES for some needy family. His 2009 efforts have already funded two goats and a water buffalo.

SARAH, OPRAH, BARBARA, & RUSH:
Linden never expected that he would watch an Oprah show, let alone an ABC broadcast featuring Barbara Walters. But he did! The occasion was their interviewing Sarah Palin. The Oprah interview was particularly well done and the one by Barbara was also acceptable. Linden had expected them to be unfriendly interviewers and they were not. Each of them complimented Sarah after the watched segments concluded.

Linden has never made a secret of the fact that he considers Sarah Palin the star of the Republican party at this time and throughout the past year. Questions covered a wide range of subjects and she quickly and completely answered each one. Didn’t use a teleprompter.

The Oprah interview was on Monday afternoon and the one by Barbara Walters was Tuesday morning. On Tuesday afternoon Rush Limbaugh also conducted an interview of Sarah--it went well and he continues to be favorably impressed by her.

At different times throughout the day, some others expressed opinions both favorable and unfavorable. It is difficult for Linden to understand some of those who claim to be conservatives who are extremely unfavorable toward Sarah—to the point where one could question their belief system.

DARE TO DISCRIMINATE:
All choices we make in life are a form of discrimination. For example, Linden loves to eat and very few, maybe only one, foods are considered unfit for human consumption. Cucumbers are not fit for hogs! This is an example of discrimination.

Our federal government has taken the wimpy (oops that’s probably outlawed) approach that using reasonable caution when dealing with a possible unfriendly situation is discriminatory. There is at least one “religious” group that has a large number of members who feel that they should kill non-believers. There is a large social group that has an inordinately high percentage of criminals and those who are incarcerated. It is probably a “hate crime” to name either of these groups.

Please discriminate to the extent that you attempt to replace all democrats in the next election. Permission is also granted to find a worthy Conservative to oppose those who are considered to be Republicans in name only.

FAINT HOPE:
Linden does not have the words to express his contempt for this democrat administration that is in the process of transferring the trial of WAR ON TERROR type captives to a civilian court! How could America have become such a den of vipers. GOD save us from our leaders.

Since this feckless administration is intent on saddling taxpayers with an undesirable “healthcare” bill, it would seem that our only hope, faint though it is, is for a number of democrat Senators to refuse to consider any aspect of this bill until the decision to try these killers in civilian court is abandoned. I feel secure in thinking that Republican Senators would overwhelmingly support this approach.

Feel free to copy and paste the above and send it to your Senators.

Friday: Two men from Poland spoke at our Men’s Prayer Breakfast.
Saturday: Donated some of my clothes and worked two hours in our clothing drive for The Ukraine—almost filled a semi trailer. Was tired and took a nap when I returned home. Listened to and/or watched football and basketball games plus a little opera. Resumed looking for the chili recipe that Caroline gave me probably 25 years ago—found a note from her and her recipe for trifle but am striking out of that really good chili recipe.
Sunday: Morning church and Sunday school. Went home and took a nap—still tired. Evening church services then watched Colts football.

THE NATIONAL DEBT:
Linden listened to just a bit of the Rush Limbaugh radio show in the late afternoon. One of the callers asked what would happen if China called for repayment of the huge debt we owe them. Then, having a very full stomach, he drifted off to a half-sleep condition and had the following dream like thoughts:

What if all of the rich and hapless D.C. leadership we have who voted for TARP, the stimulus rip-off, the hate crime mistake, the healthcare tragedy, and who will vote for the cap and trade major tax and other freedom-busting legislation, were, to pay toward our national debt, assessed 90% of their net worth plus their pension plan as partial repayment of this debt?

This group would include all of the democrats and perhaps as much as 10% of the elected Republicans. I know, I know it is but a dream but how nice it would be to penalize those responsible for the harm they have done present and future taxpayers. Those responsible for these tragedies desperately need to pay some penalty for their ongoing attack on our country.

VETERANS DAY
The day had its good points and, in general, left Linden feeling much more positive than he had been the previous day. Not more positive about our Washington leadership—maybe just more accepting of their shortcomings.

The day brought Linden several words of appreciation for his service to our country and the words themselves were appreciated. The words came through personal contact, phone calls and emails.
He will now share two of those email messages and a word or two about each one. The first, from Katia, was short but uplifting. She has seen firsthand the problems associated with the wrong form of government. Here are her words:

“Happy Veteran's Day! Thank you for what you have done and what you are doing for this Great Country! God bless you and all your comrades!”

The second came from our democrat Indiana Senator—he always becomes more conservative as the election nears but is not ever among the very worst of the democrat Senators. We will see how strongly he opposes the healthcare and cap and trade monstrosities. Here are his words:

"Today, we pay tribute to the valor of those who have honored our state, crossed an ocean, left their families behind and answered the call to serve. And we pay our solemn respects to the 118 Hoosiers who have made the ultimate sacrifice in Afghanistan and Iraq.As we honor the fallen and start to bring our heroes home, it’s imperative that Congress invest the resources needed to address the terrible strains that have been placed on our service members, our veterans and our military families.As an elected official representing Indiana, I am particularly concerned that members of the Indiana National Guard who were exposed to deadly chemicals on the outskirts of Basrah, Iraq, receive the medical care they deserve—a case I recently made before the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee. (View testimony here.)To understand Indiana’s heritage is to know there are no words sufficient to express how proud we are to live in the midst of so many real-life heroes. None except these: Thank you."

Now for links to two videos Linden enjoyed.

Linden also received a note from Cheryl saying that Sarah Palin will appear on the Oprah show this coming Monday. He will break down and watch it.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
Had a very pleasant session with my second grade Study Buddy. This was followed with biscuits and gravy at Chick-fil-A and a visit at the book store that sells my books and CD. She is closing in about a week and I will have to try and find another outlet—I have really enjoyed our association. Had a good dinner and evening program at church.

STUMPED!
Linden knows that on Veterans Day he should not be brooding about an incompetent President and an anti-American majority party in Congress ramming horrible legislation down our throats. He is so disgusted that he will write no further regarding political matters today. Do read the approved link to a Palin piece below and go down to the LINKS section and check out the Nov. 10 kissesfromkatie piece—it made Linden feel unworthy.

CHASING ROSTENKOWSKI:
Being much concerned about the actions of the governmental leadership and being reminded of a 20 year old incident involving another powerful (at that time) legislator, Linden started doing some “what if” thinking. In that long ago incident, Rostenkowski was followed by an incensed crowd of oldsters.

Linden believes that our world today is less tolerant than it was only 20 years ago. What if those who voted for this healthcare monstrosity are given the same type of attention, except perhaps more violent, than Rostenkoski received at that time.

What if this attention extended to the legislators wives, children, mistresses, and grandchildren? Linden believes this situation is called anarchy. Scary thought! Possible!

The night light at the Mission House presented a problem which I simply do not understand. Rectified it later but still am puzzled. Had several phone calls and did a mess of paperwork – or should I say that I worked in a mess of paper? Had Chick-fil-A take out for dinner.

APPROPRIATE PUNISHMENT = ?
In the early days of our republic there were several forms of punishment meted out to those who failed miserably in performing their duty. That is why they are called, “THE GOOD OLD DAYS.”

Those punishments which come to mind are, being locked up in the stocks, tar and feathers, and horsewhipping. I suppose there were forms of more terminal punishment but, since the group of congressional nuts passed the hate crime legislation, Linden is a bit nervous about appearing to be overly biased.

Linden believes that the healthcare related legislation that passed the House will come to be known as one of the major loss of freedom days and those that voted for it will become known as treasonous snakes.

YOU should note that 176 Republicans voted against it and 219 democrats voted for it. Disappointing as it is, the lone Republican who voted for it comes from an overwhelmingly liberal area and, I suppose, could be thought of as having almost no choice if he wants that district to have anything resembling a voice of sanity in the days to come. Linden would prefer that he sacrificed himself.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
On Friday I attended our Men’s Prayer Breakfast at 6:00, went to the post office and book store. Spent a portion of the day looking for notes I had misplaced.
Saturday I attended the men’s meeting at Kingsway church and then took my books and CD to a craft fair at an elder care facility. While there, heard that my cousin, Bill, and his wife, Kathy, were residents there. They were not in their room when I checked after the craft fair closed. When I arrived back home, I had a note from them telling me of their new address.
Sunday brought church services and Sunday school, brunch with friends, newspaper reading and watched a televised Colts football game. In the evening, I went to the annual congregational meeting at church.

HOPE FOR WORTHWHILE CHANGE:
Thanks to the earlier Tea Party and Town Hall events coupled with winning the New Jersey and Virginia Governorships, the good showing of David Harmer in California District 10, the close race by Doug Hoffman in New York District 23, the one week effort Michelle Bachmann and others made to educate Congress on November 5 (and after), Linden is feeling a strong push against the Socialist movement evidenced by the democrat leadership.

Since Linden composes his posting the evening before the posting takes place, he is not fully aware of the total Nov. 5 crowd size but early reports that at least 20,000 attended. Pretty good for a quick effort! Mike Pence also put together a 12 hour effort on this date. The following links are presented in part to show that those who say the Republicans are too silent and are not doing anything are not availing themselves of available news.

THE DAY AFTER:
Linden had unrealistic hopes for the four major elections which occurred November 3. He hoped for a Republican sweep of three races and that the Conservative would win the fourth.

By winning the New Jersey and Virginia Governorships he was assured of being happy with the two most important of the four races. The 10th District Congressional race in California was a very long shot, at best—and sure enough, we lost it. But the margin gives us hope for the future. The 23rd Congressional District in New York was expected to be close and it was—but we still lost. Hope for the future is warranted there.

When Sarah Palin endorsed Conservative Doug Hoffman for the New York seat, he was in a distant third place, behind the democrat and the extremely liberal republican nominee. Palin’s support helped him to knock the republican out of the race and to become a definite contender for the win. Good job Sarah!

The following link provides a better analysis than anything that Linden could write.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
My sleep failures led to me being a dead head all day. Met with my Study Buddy at 9:00 then went on to the credit union and post office. Had a doctor appointment after lunch. Back home, did a couple of small tasks at the Mission House, had a good meal and attended a good program at church. Almost fell in the dark as I returned home. Lucky me!

LISTEN HARD!!!
In recent days Linden has heard many complaints that the Republicans are doing nothing, saying nothing and are accepting of whatever the democrats put before them. Rubbish!! These complainers forget or fail to grasp just how hard it is for the minority party to make progress legislatively and the disadvantage that the highly biased main stream media puts them in.

Appearing below are three easily found Mike Pence newsworthy efforts and another, equally newsworthy, by Lloyd Marcus. As a bonus there is a fun link.

LATE (OR EARLY) BREAKING:
It appears that the Republicans won the gubernatorial elections in New Jersey and Virginia. The news appears to be not so good in the New York District 23 race and Linden found no early morning news regarding California District 10.

LINDEN'S LIFE:
I took my recyclables to Kent’s container, went to the post office and then had biscuits and gravy at Chick-fil-A. John came by in the afternoon to discuss the goldfish pond—we had coffee and a nice long talk. I did a load of wash and noticed that Ray had fixed the defective porch light at the Mission House. Sometime during the day I found time to send the following message to the Indianapolis Star:

Dear Editor,
It is possible that the "Obama's Quick Start" column by Eugene Robinson which appeared in your November 3 issue is not a new low for your editorial page. After all, his chief competitor for worst of the worst is Ken Bode.
Regards,
