Good morning, everybody! I hope that our northerners are keeping warm! It’s 17* this morning, and we’ll be lucky if we get that warm tomorrow. I am thankful for my warm and dry little house, good food to eat, and my fuzzy-faced companions.
Anticipating the first signs of Spring (let’s face it – those are still several weeks away), I am trying to remember that without winter, spring and summer would not be as sweet. It’s a time of dormancy for plants and some animals too, and perhaps a time for reflection and renewal of spirits.
In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer. – Albert Camus

It’s not quite that cold here, but cold enough. It was 25* when we headed outside this morning, frost on everything and had to break ice for the livestock. It’s warmed up now to 28*.

It’s always a guessing game. We can breed them for February babies and it will be bitterly cold, so then the next year we breed for March babies and it’s warmer in February than March. Same thing when we’ve tried for April babies, April will be cold and if they had been born in March it would have been warmer.
So we’ll just have to wait and see if we guessed right this year.
It always lifts my spirits though to watch all the babies running around playing.
Calves are fun to, but not anything like baby goats, they imo are the cutest animal babies, especially the fainting babies because they can’t control their falling over like adults can.
We’re all excited to watch the human baby with them this year now that he can chase them.

Good morning Stella. That quote reminds me of something that kind of dropped into my spiritual ponderings lately. I believe we should thank God not only for what we consider our blessings, answered prayers, the so called good things in our lives, but even the trials and tribulations. Not just because those trials may later bear fruit we cannot see, but just because they are a part of our path in life, a part of what we ultimately become, what we do, what we offer back to God.
I have never read stories of any great saints who lived charmed lives. Most became saints whose lives are gifts, blessings to the world through great toils, some even martyrdom.
Right now I am trying hard to practice that theory with good heart in very difficult times.

Chelsea Clinton on why she left the Baptist church at the wise old age of 6.
http://www.lifenews.com/2016/02/11/chelsea-clinton-i-left-the-church-when-i-was-6-because-it-opposed-abortion/
“I find it quite insulting sometimes when people say to my mom, my dad or me . . . that they question our faith,’ said Chelsea. “I was raised in a Methodist church and I left the Baptist church before my dad did, because I didn’t know why they were talking to me about abortion when I was 6 in Sunday school — that’s a true story.”
“My mother is very deeply a person of faith,” Chelsea said. “It is deeply authentic and real for my mother, and it guides so much of her moral compass, but also her life’s work.”
“Give me a child until he is 7 and I will show you the man.”

“I left an organization because I didn’t know why they were talking to me about something.”
What a strong, independent woman. “I don’t know. So I have to leave.”
Hey, Chels. You could have asked. The answer has to do with the concept of evil.
That’s why she left, and she knows it. They oppose evil that Mommy supports, and in whose founder’s name Mommy receives awards and accolades.
Then again, I think most Dems who leave the church do it because the church opposes evil.

Yes Taqi, Over my years of service too this great Nation, I have seen many faces of Evil. This following passage is my rock, my center, my moral compass, my peace: The Armor of God
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

I meant to bold the Aristotle quote to differentiate from the article :sigh:
Anyhow it is easy to see how malformed Chelsea’s conscience is.
If the story is even true, any which way Chelsea sees it as a positive and believes that her mother is living her life in accordance with a deeply held faith.
I wonder what that faith is?
A faith that promotes baby butchering. A faith that promotes lies, destroying people lives, a faith of unmitigated greed, a faith that promotes winning at any cost, a faith that promotes a sham marriage where your husband relationship with you is more like a naughty boy and his mother, a faith were you malign women that your husband has abused in one way or the other, and I could go on.
What a curious “life defining” faith.

There are problems with this article. First of all, you didn’t need a passport to travel from Canada to the U.S. in the 1970’s. I didn’t need one when I went to and from Canada in 2006, via car. I have been going to Canada, and returning to the U.S., since I was born in the 1940’s, and the passport requirement is really new; I think the past four or five years.
Since Cruz was entering the U.S. with his mother, a U.S. citizen, there would not have been a problem. Possibly his mother didn’t file the correct paperwork, but it is a huge stretch to say that he entered the country illegally, especially since he was what – four years old?

My dear husband (who is known to my internet friends as Dutch) had an interesting comment last night. Something was mentioned about Hilary, and he said “you know, they could hold a contest for worst Secretary of State ever, and it would be 3-way tie between Clinton, Madeline Albright, and John Kerry.” And now Albright is out there telling young women that if they don’t support Hilary, they are traitors to their gender. The sad thing is that way too many will buy into that krap.

Notes After New Hampshire
I live in northern New Hampshire, where every town that isn’t a ski resort is dead. They were pleasant, sleepy places in genteel decline 20 years ago. Now they’re hollowed out by heroin and meth, and offering no economic opportunity beyond casual shifts at the KwikkiKrap. And when you listen to the Dems they’re worried about micro-aggressions and transphobia and when you listen to Congressional Republicans they’re talking about the Trans-Pacific Partnership. The two-party one-party state has nothing to say to tens of millions of Americans.
Trump won because he put real-world issues on the table. Nobody needs to be told that he “isn’t a real Republican”. That’s the point of Trump. The Republican base loathes the Republican leadership far more than they love the vessel they’ve chosen to express their loathing.

With him we have his king stuff, awaken the Body of Christ, his wife saying he’s showing the face of God, all over the top imo and just a little creepy to me and I have heard and saw a lot in my lifetime and that kind of talk always came from Churches that made me uncomfortable and that something wasn’t right.
With his supporters we have them saying he’s the only man of God running, which again for me I cannot judge who is a true man of God, only God can do that, all I can judge is their fruit.
Which brings me to the fruit part of him and many of his supporters, he lies, he cheats, he acted one way in Iowa and another in NH and now another way in SC, he does many questionable things imo such as who he chose to run his campaign, willing to invade the privacy of unsuspecting people. His supporters who also scream their Christian and can only vote for a Christian call anyone and everyone who doesn’t worship him rude and vulgar names.
His and their fruit is just a little rotten.

Has anyone ever seen the face of God? seems blasphemous she say this. Most would say other see the Jesus love in others or jesus loves through others or we see the heart or live of Jesus in someome. But see His face? Are worthy enough to see Jesus’s face? What does Bible say about this? (Excluding when Jesus was here as man as that was His human face but not God, the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost). Very strange phrasing, to me at least.

I told him that he reminds me of a liberal, and that his comments weren’t very Christian. He also called me stupid, dead from the neck up and a liar. This is because somebody retweeted one of my posts from a month ago.

I just recently started blocking some people on FB. No reason to put up with obnoxious people that you aren’t friends with (FB) or following (twitter).

I didn’t read this article and my best guess it is not worth the time but I laughed out loud at the correction that heads the piece.
This story has been corrected to clarify the 10th and 11th paragraphs. An earlier version incorrectly implied that President Obama was not a “change-maker.”

Can’t remember if I told you that I actually had those in Dearborn one year on Fat Tuesday, and yes they were delicious.
I have developed an interest in European baked goods, breads etc., recipes in the last two or three years. And I can eat none of that most of the time.
I browbeat a kid who used to work for me into getting his Czech grandmother’s bread recipe that she served with a Christmas Eve dinner every year. It has become my family’s favorite. And as you know, I went nuts over aebleskivers a few months ago. I love thos ethnic treats and breads!

Ya think parents will start realizing anytime soon that their kids are going to commie schools?
They do crack me up though with their excuse at the end; Ankeny schools’ chief operations officer Matt Adams, meanwhile, insists the district’s food rules are designed to promote equality.
“It is important to us that students with dietary and/or financial restrictions not be excluded from school parties, and have an equitable experience to that of their peers,” he said.
I don’t know how the commie schools do it these days but when I was baking cookies and cupcakes for school parties I baked enough for the entire class, it wasn’t a bring your own cookie and cupcake party, neither did I tell the teacher to not give the poor kid in the back a cookie. Now if a child has a dietary issue then can’t their parent send them with dietary treats for themselves and other kids if they choose?
My goodness the poor kids can’t play ball, tag, pretend shootouts or even run at recess anymore and they have to eat lunches that a dog wouldn’t eat and be fed commie bs all day, can’t they a few times a year get to have a little fun and eat an evil cookie?

Yes, it was a company tied to Ted Cruz who placed the robo calls in SC. He lied.
Barrett said she found the call — which continued to say negative things about Rubio before taking shots at Donald Trump for being a supporter of eminent domain — to be “negative” and “unfair,” but she couldn’t figure out right away who it was from. The voice said the poll was conducted by some place called Remington Research.
She told her Rubio-supporting friend about the call; her friend told the campaign. They said they knew exactly what Remington Research was: a consulting firm started by Sen. Ted Cruz’s campaign manager, Jeff Roe.
“These tactics are becoming all too common in this race and indicative of our opponents’ campaigns that are willing to say or do anything to win an election,” Rich Beeson, Rubio’s deputy campaign manager, said. “This is nothing more than a deliberate effort to peddle false information in the hopes of deceiving voters.”
Of course, Cruz campaign denies that it is them.

Was he this deceiving when running for Senate and we somehow missed it?
Without the communist and Muslim ties he reminds me more of Obama every day.
I honestly do not get it, he is ruining his reputation, he keeps this stuff up and he’s liable to find himself unelectable for a second term as Senator.
