The Racism of the DNC

April 28, 2008

The supreme court has ruled in a 6-3 decision that allowing states to force voters to show ID is constitutional. The Democats in all their wisdom, say this is racist because it’s harder for blacks to get proper ID. No punch line, that really is their argument.  The Republicans on the other hand say requiring and ID will prevent fraud. My parents don’t vote, however they are both registered. Without a voter ID, nothing stops me (or anyone else) from voting once for me, and going down the street to my father’s voting precent and voting for him. 

Justice Scalia said,

“The universally applicable requirements of Indiana’s voter-identification law are eminently reasonable. The burden of acquiring, possessing and showing a free photo identification is simply not severe, because it does not ‘even represent a significant increase over the usual burdens of voting.”

For the democrats to suggest black americans are too stupid to get proper ID cards is one of the most racist things I’ve ever heard. They may not phrase it like that, but we all know that is what they mean. Shame on them.

The Sacrifice of Christ - A Parent’s Perspective

April 28, 2008

As Christians we are know the sacrifice Christ made for the sake of our sins is amazing. He came to earth, suffered and died to pay a debt, we owe. But how often do we really stop and think about the sacrifice God the Father made? Since becoming a father myself almost four years ago, it’s something I’ve thought about a lot.

The mystery of the Blessed Trinity aside for the moment, simply because it’s something we may not fully understand until we die. God’s love for us was so strong, that he allowed is only Son to be crucified for the sins of the world. The Gospel of Saint John tells us:

“For God so loved the world, as to give his only begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in him, may not perish, but may have life everlasting.”

Nothing is more important to me then my daughter. The love I feel when I look in her eyes could never be described.  I can’t even begin to imagine a situation, where I would even consider doing what God the Father did for us. When I think the pain and agony  Jesus suffered during his final days, His sacrifice is much more powerful to me. I thank God for the blessing he has given my wife and I with our daughter and thank Him everyday for His Blessed Son, our Savior and Lord. My mind wonders to the stations of the cross we pray each Easter as we contemplate the trials Christ faced during his Passion.

“We adore you Oh Christ, and we bless you. 
Because by your Holy Cross 
You have redeemed the world.”
