Man's best friend has always been thought of as his dog. But really our best friend is God the father. Shadd and Chico remind me of that every day. We hope we can bring that into your lives every day also. Amen! Amen!

MONDAY'S POST!

By MarketWatch

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) - The White House issued the following statement on Saturday from President Barack Obama on the demonstrations in Iran:

"The Iranian government must understand that the world is watching. We mourn each and every innocent life that is lost. We call on the Iranian government to stop all violent and unjust actions against its own people. The universal rights to assembly and free speech must be respected, and the United States stands with all who seek to exercise those rights.
As I said in Cairo, suppressing ideas never succeeds in making them go away. The Iranian people will ultimately judge the actions of their own government. If the Iranian government seeks the respect of the international community, it must respect the dignity of its own people and govern through consent, not coercion.
Martin Luther King once said - "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." I believe that. The international community believes that. And right now, we are bearing witness to the Iranian peoples' belief in that truth, and we will continue to bear witness."

Please share us the quotes Mr. President. These kids probably don't know who Martin Luther King was. They are dying here and need our help. They need a man like Martin Luther King to stand up to the world and say enough. Enough of this and if you don't stop in two days we are coming in to stop you.

However, that man does not exist any more in this country. If he did we would not have the mess we are in right now. We need them, but where have they all gone. "Where have all the flowers gone? Long time ago!"
