Another Season Of Thanksgiving

In
the days leading up to the election, Obama said that the best “revenge” was to
vote. Well, I guess he and others like
him are reveling in their revenge as we speak – those who voted for him at least. I still haven’t figured out the “revenge”
part of that statement. Revenge is not
the reason Americans should vote at all, but if anyone deserved revenge in that
election, it would be Obama’s opponents – certainly not his supporters to whom
he was speaking.
The
list of grievances against the president’s regime is lengthy, to say the least,
and keeps growing on a daily basis, but revenge is not the answer to relief
from those grievances. The American way
is to defy and oppose anything that threatens American tradition, heritage, and
freedom. This is a concept that is
being lost on too many of those officials and elected representatives that fall
into the category of the Obama regime’s opposition. You cannot reach across the aisle or compromise with
tyranny. Until said leaders of the
opposition realize that, we are in big trouble.
It
has been said that the best revenge is happiness or living well – this from the
cup half full crowd – and they have a very good point. To that, I would add another component. Live free!
That is truly the best revenge to grievances perpetrated by socialist
and communist propaganda that would have us believe the founding of our country
was driven and even allowed by anything less than a miraculous victory in the
pursuit of freedom and happiness. If
you live free, you truly will live well and pursue happiness all the days of
your life.
I
cannot improve on last year’s message about The Season Of
Thanksgiving,
so I would simply ask you to review it again and don’t forget to count any
blessing, no matter how small or seemingly obscure. This Holy season of thanksgiving is ingrained in our culture and
heritage. Let’s do everything in our
power to see that it remains intact.
