What does Ted Baxter and Barak Obama have in Common?


I am simply amazed how Liberal Progressives are so willing to find excuses for Presidents who have shown that they are utter failures! Jimmy Carter is a prime example of this and it looks like before President Obama gets kick out of office, they are already willing to resurrect his image.

\They are scambing to do so because how would it look if the very first black President of the US is a failure in nearly everything he touches. President Obama policies, he very nature seems to follow something started along time ago, when President Johnson and Democrats started the Great society.

Now in effect we have the product of that Great society in the person of Barak Obama. He is the Michael Jackson of Presidents. The first black President with no accomplishments and no real motivation to do anything, but play golf, have concerts and mingle with the very rich and famous. His talent is giving speeches and looking good.



He reminds me of a black Ted Baxter from the old Mary Taylor Moore show and he seems incapable of saying anything without the teleproter. His hope Presidency rest upon being able to make a great speech which it seem he beginning to faultier.

The American people are being to get tired of this poor excuse for a anchor man costume as a president. The General McChrystal affair show she disengage in the process of President. He seems from the Rolling Stone article to be so willing to run to gold course rather than doing the country’s Business. From what the staff told Rolling Stone Magazine McChrystal said told his staff about the President:

“Their first one-on-one meeting took place in the Oval Office four months later, after McChrystal got the Afghanistan job, and it didn't go much better. "It was a 10-minute photo op," says an adviser to McChrystal. "Obama clearly didn't know anything about him, who he was. Here's the guy who's going to run his f@%king war, but he didn't seem very engaged.”

Can we really expect more from this President who seems to not be engage in anything other than shooting hoops or running down the fairways of Golf Course? This President loves being President , but not really the job of being President.

Always Repent to the Lord



I don’t know,what make me reach out recently to write to a ole friend, except maybe I wanted to reconnect with friends I knew in college and rediscover them , but then I remember what Thomas Wolfe said in the book “October Fair” that " You Can't Go Home Again!"

I don’t understand alllot of things in life and after careful consideration, I am not sure what to make of this friendship. In contacting this friend, and still consider her a friend, I wanted to relay to her that I may have done wrong to her and others, but I repented.

So often we think people will except that as a given, but it is not to be. Mormon Church Elder Neal Andersen of the quorum of Twelve Apostles writes that:

”the invitation to repent is rarely a voice of chastisement but rather a loving appeal to turn around and to “re-turn” toward God.” :

I have come to that point in my life and I have spend allot of times wondering if I would receive forgiveness from my friends, who I offended in not realizing that forgiveness will not come from the them, but the Lord. They often times use friendship as a weapon to exact punishment, when they cannot in anyway use it as such!

Paraphrasing what would Elder Ansersen would say: The Lord’s has desire for us to come to Him and be wrapped in His arms is often an invitation to repent.

“Behold, he sendeth an invitation unto all men, for the arms of mercy are extended towards them, and he saith: Repent, and I will receive you.” Alma 5:33.

What I discovered is that sometimes friends are fair weather and the Lord is not. I not perfect, and I not willing to sit and cry because I can get forgiveness from a friend. Their unwillingness is their problem, not mine. I am amazed that the Lord has embrace me and has shown mercy to me, no matter how selfish the sin was. I know that the Lord has forgiven me and he is eager to forgive my sins.

As marvel at the privilege for me to turn away from my sins I most say that I value real forgiveness and fruits of the gospel, and removing and the pain my heart. Jesus declares,guilt

“Will ye not now return unto me, and repent of your sins, and be converted, that I may heal you?”3 Nephi 9:13.

My ole friend may not forgiven me and the walls to that friendship was up to her. I may have not made myself clear to her, but I discovered that it friends do not forgive they themselves have to answer to the Lord. I have done my part forgiven them, and that is all I can do! I’ve done my best I was a true friend to them. I remember what the Lord has asked us!

Not sure they can say the same thing? I willing to asked for forgiveness, , but I come to realized it really isn't important who the reply comes from, either the person I done wrong too, or from the Lord? It really doesn't matter!
