Comments on: A Wall Street Week Of Biblical Proportions

With Talk Of An Impending Financial Armageddon, The Gov't Takes Unprecedented Action. But Where Will It Lead?

Don''t worry folks, even as I post I am waiting for
a pizza order to show up.

I will pay for it on my credit card.

That should boost the economy some and
help the market tomorrow morning.

You can all thank me later.

Oh, I think I hear a knock at the door.

Gotta go.

It is absolutely the height of Republican misrule to decide to bail out the professional financiers and bankers who should have known better than to invest in these assets, while blaming people who hardly know what the word amortization means for taking out loans they could not afford and making them pay every last cent. Utterly reprehensible. The Republicans were responsible for the deregulation that made all this possible. Anyone who fails to see the need to punish the Republicans for starting an illegal war and this financial crisis is a fool.

Obama''s plan makes more sense. Of course, it is not detailed yet. The guy is not running an entire executive branch, he''s running a campaign. He doesn''t have access to all the information that Bush has, or any of the power. However, his braod outline ought to serve as the basis for the response to this crisis. It is far superior to the dead on arrival Paulson-Bush plan.

Just curious, does that include the sinful thieves of Wall Street that have shown greed and sloth at the expense of their fellow man and country?

Only about 13% of the colonists were of the Christian faith when the constitution was written but whatever floats your boat and allows you to sleep at night.

The White House
An inscription by the first president to inhabit the White House, John Adams, is cut into the marble facing of the State Dining Room fireplace. It reads: %u201CI pray Heaven to Bestow the Best of Blessings on THIS HOUSE and on All that shall hereafter Inhabit it. May none but Honest and Wise Men ever rule under this Roof.%u201D

Many other monuments and buildings in Washington proclaim America%u2019s faith in God. On the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery is the inscription: %u201CHere rests in honored glory an American soldier known but to God.%u201D

On the front facade of Union Station three Scripture verses are engraved including, %u201CThou has put all things under his feet%u201D and %u201CThe truth shall make you free.%u201D Lincoln%u2019s words on his memorial exclaim %u201Cthat this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom.%u201D

We ARE a Christian Nation!

The Library of Congress
Within the Great Hall of the Jefferson Building are two cases, one containing a Gutenberg Bible and the other a hand-copied Giant Bible of Mainz. The display of these two Bibles is appropriate because, in the words of President Andrew Jackson, %u201CThe Bible is the rock upon which our republic rests.%u201D Many Biblical inscriptions can be found on the ceiling and walls.

In the Main Reading Room are statues and quotes representing fields of knowledge. Moses and Paul represent religion, with the inscription, %u201CWhat doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy and to walk humbly with thy God?%u201D

You don''t believe it? Go and look for yourselves and then walk humbly with thy God!

The Capitol Building
All of the eight large paintings in the Rotunda present aspects of our Christian history including The Baptism of Pocahontas and Departure of the Pilgrims from Holland which depicts the Pilgrims observing a day of prayer and fasting.

%u201CIn God We Trust,%u201D our national motto, is inscribed in letters of gold behind the speaker%u2019s rostrum in the House Chamber. Also in this chamber, above the central Gallery door, is a marble relief of Moses, the greatest of 23 noted law-givers.

As long as we willfully disregard the foundation stones of nation, we are doomed, even if God has to take it all away, don''t think that He won''t.

The Washington Monument
From the tallest structure in Washington a message of %u2018Praise be to God%u201D goes forth. Engraved upon the aluminum capstone on the top of this 555 foot monument is Laus Deo. Inside the structure are carved tribute blocks with many Godly messages: %u201CHoliness to the Lord,%u201D %u201CSearch the Scriptures,%u201D %u201CThe memory of the just is blessed,%u201D and others.

When we as a nation collectively forget this, everything will come crashing down. What is it going to take to cause the nation to remember and acknowledge God as in the beginning of our great country? It is God that makes anything Good or Great.

One main order of the propaganda system is to be sure the election has no "class warfare"--The war has been over for many years-the middle class is totally defeated.We can now relax & enjoy the result.
