From Barack Obama's book titled Audacity of Hope:
"I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."

"The Democrats are for Cradle-To-Grave entitlements.  It's getting to the cradle that's the hard part!"
- Dennis Miller

Women's rights activists claim abortion should be safe, legal and rare.  Well since when should rights be considered "rare"?

Our secret decoder rings

I guess my fellow conservatives and I are going to have to get out our "secret decoder rings" in order to decifer what the liberal/progressive Democrats claim we're talking about.  They're the ones saying we're talking in "code".  It's truly amazing how they interpret what we say.  As the saying goes....Perception Is Everything.  It doesn't mean their attacks on us necessarily have to be true, it's just that their claims have to stick.  It's getting really pathetic.  At least they're not saying we're felons or are the cause of some poor woman's cancer death! 

So the word police is out and about, doing their investigative work on all those dreadful code words the Tea Party, Christian, fiscal and social conservatives allegedly use.  So it's not enough that we've been accused of being intolerant, racist, homophobic bigots who have a war on women.  We're now in the pretend world of Star Trek type science-fiction who speak in coded language to get our points across.  No wonder we have a failure to communicate!

I believe it goes to show that if they don't have a good defense or comeback on the topic being discussed, then the Rules For Radicals kicks in, and that is to attack your rival with some ignorant accusation and hope it sticks.  But I think (and hope) people listening to these debates are able to see right through this.  Liberals like to claim that they are the tolerant ones, yet their tolerance does not seem to apply to the people who disagree with them!  So much for free speech in America.  But I think they should be put on notice that these tactics are not working for them. 

 

Are we being put to the test?

My goodness, this post would have qualified for Twitter because of it's brevity!

I'm back, after almost a year's absence from posting on this blog.  I've made a slight change to the name, from Hyperopic One to Hyperopic View.  Hyperopic means far sighted, if anyone didn't want to take the time to look it up.  I am literally far sighted, concerning my eyesight, but I also like to think my thoughts and concerns are always looking towards the future....and not just here on earth, but it's also my heavenly goal.

My main interests are still religion and politics, so that's what most of my content will be.  Hopefully I will be able to spark some interest in what I have to say.  I don't do Facebook or Twitter, so this is my outlet for spouting off on current events.  I've been accused by my friends and family of getting a little too long winded sometimes, so I could never be on Twitter when I'm only limited to 140 characters!

The story in the news for the last couple of days has been about Todd Akin.  I must say I was a little disappointed at how quickly the Republican big wigs "threw him under the bus".  Granted, his comments were inartfully expressed and misunderstood as being insensitive, but he did apoligize. 

If this was a test for how the GOP party bosses are going to stand with the Christian conservatives, then I believe they failed this test.  They are too afraid of the Dems and the liberal media branding us all as being politically incorrect bigots.  I understand they don't want to risk losing this seat from Missouri, which should be a somewhat easy pick up for them, but what I'm sensing is that there is still some strong support for Akin, despite all the condemnation.  However, we fiscal and social conservatives are fired up and the Republicans should know that they can't afford to alienate this strong voting block.  They should know that we truly do stand for what's good and true.....Life and Liberty.  Let the Dems go ahead and have their convention theme be Death and Taxes.
