Condolences to David Cameron and his Family
By: c17wife (Diary) | February 26th at 08:28 AM |
David Cameron’s young son, Ivan, has died. Parents should never have to bury their children. Especially a child as young as Ivan. I commend the Cameron family for seeing the value in Ivan’s life and for raising him as their “beautiful boy” despite the difficulties they faced with his illness. If only all would value the life of an innocant child as much. You | Read More »
The Family BBQ Just Went South
By: c17wife (Diary) | November 6th at 05:46 AM |
Kat-Mo over at Ace of Spades sums this whole “Sarah Palin, the backwater rube, screwed us all” nonsense. Go read it. All of it. And then laugh at the sheer truth of it all. WARNING-Language alert. Just to tease you- “…In the first episode at the family BBQ, everybody had just shown up and were standing around until Cousin Sarah appeared. In today’s episode, we | Read More »
Is Barack a Modern Day Jacob?
By: c17wife (Diary) | October 24th at 10:44 AM |
Needing something to read this week as I did my daily running of children all over the German countryside, I picked up Paul Powell’s Feet of Clay. I had read this book several years ago as part of a small group study. In the book, Powell takes a look at 13 emotions that make us stumble. He uses examples of biblical people to make his | Read More »
Duty is Ours, Outcomes Belong to God
By: c17wife (Diary) | October 23rd at 11:34 AM |
I cribbed my title and my tag line from Mike Pence. He used this line in a letter to his colleagues that he posted on Human Events on 9-28-08. It was an eloquent letter explaining why he was not going to saddle our children with our mistakes. You can read it in its entirety here- http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=28751&keywords=Duty+is+ours This diary really isn’t about Mike Pence though. It | Read More »
This Is Why I Cry and Pray Every Night
By: c17wife (Diary) | October 20th at 02:21 PM |
Why, oh why, haven’t they been more forceful? It just boggles my mind and rips at my gut all day every day. And, it is what will drive me to full blown Obama Derangement Syndrome should the unthinkable happen in 14 days. Mark Salter has given a candid and forceful interview to Jeff Goldberg of The Atlantic. He touchs on all the points we so | Read More »

By: c17wife (Diary) | October 14th at 03:30 PM |
Starting tomorrow morning, the Our Country Deserves Better PAC will begin its Stop Obama National Tour. They will make their way across this great country of ours holding 2-3 rallies a day in critical battleground states. If you are on their route, go out and join them to show your support for McCain/Palin and America. If you have a little cash, I’m sure they appreciate | Read More »
Senator Jon Cornyn Seeks Federal Criminal Probe of ACORN
By: c17wife (Diary) | October 14th at 03:12 PM |
Via my favorite ACE OF SPADES, we have this latest news. Given these allegations, as well as the well-documented fraud convictions in recent years of ACORN employees, I urge you to launch a nationwide criminal probe into ACORN’s voter registration activities. As you know, federal law prohibits an individual from (1) providing fraudulent voter registration information; (2) conspiring to encourage false registration or illegal voting; | Read More »
Bocephus Sings for McCain/Palin
By: c17wife (Diary) | October 13th at 05:07 PM |
Ya’ll know I’m a southern girl by birth, so I’m a sucker for Hank. I spent many college nights with a beer in hand dancing to the original version of this song. Go on over to http://hotair.com/archives/2008/10/13/video-the-mccainpalin-tradition/ and give it a peek. I think Hank needs to record this and it needs to play with John Rich’s song at every rally McCain, Sarah, or Todd | Read More »
A PUMA Rant Worth Reading
By: c17wife (Diary) | October 11th at 07:23 PM |
I will confess that being on RS depresses me these days as does Malkin. It seems like we are losing our fire in the belly and are quick to b*tch about Johnny Mac for the heck of it. Well, I want to win and I sure wish we could get that fire back. I read NoQuarter daily to gauge the PUMAs. Honestly, they have more | Read More »
Ace of Spades vs. Barack’s Truth Squad
By: c17wife (Diary) | September 28th at 04:38 PM |
As I have become more cynical about this whole election, I find myself at http://www.ace.mu.nu/ home to Ace of Spades more and more. I just wandered over there to check in before heading to bed and found this waiting for me. Truth Squad this. If prosecutors are going to threaten those who “lie” about Obama, I guess we’ll just have to start preparing the truth-is-a-defense-to-libel | Read More »
Mike Pence is My Hero Today
By: c17wife (Diary) | September 28th at 02:02 PM |
Mike Pence has an article up on Human Events. Go read it all. Now. And know that America needs more just like him. Economic freedom means the freedom to succeed and the freedom to fail. And to this I just say-Preach it brother. Oh how we often forget. Duty is ours, outcomes belong to God. Indiana, you have something special in that man. Don’t ever | Read More »

Dear God, the AP has unearthed a game changer for us all. We are doomed to four years of Barack and the most ethical executive branch EVAH!!! AP reports they have found some potentially damaging information on Sarah Palin- WASILLA, Alaska – Though Sarah Palin depicts herself as a pit bull fighting good-old-boy politics, in her years as mayor she and her friends received special | Read More »
How the Palin Family Makes Decisions
By: c17wife (Diary) | September 2nd at 04:20 AM |
I must admit, I was reeling yesterday with the news of Bristol Palin’s pregnancy. Not that it would change my vote or anything, because it won’t. But I did still have questions. My big questions were- Did John McCain really know this in advance? All indications are that he did know about this and Todd’s DUI that took place before the Palins were married in | Read More »
In Which Steve Schmidt Rocks
By: c17wife (Diary) | August 30th at 04:57 PM |
As I have watched the reaction to Sarah Palin’s new place on the McCain ticket, I have been shocked by so many different things. I don’t know why though. Lord knows the left has spent the last 8 years villifying anything Bush or Republicans have tried to do or stand for. I did hold out some hope that there would be some type of moratorium | Read More »
Dobson Is On Board Now!
By: c17wife (Diary) | August 29th at 04:53 PM |
I know many of you here think James Dobson is a quack, detriment to the cause, etc… But we can not deny that he is a vocal force for Evangelical Christians and that many, many people listen to what he says and take it to heart. Via Townhall- Dobson: You know, Dennis, the things that concern me about John McCain are still there. I made | Read More »
