    Serious and sober prayer request:

    Have been notified through pro-life contacts that a young woman in SF, in her second trimester, is seriously considering aborting her twins. Contacts are guessing she is being pressured to do this.

    Please pray for her and for her babies.

      The Clinton’s and their crew did absolutely think Hillary was going to win

      But win through voter fraud

      Trump put voter fraud front and center and drummed it into everyone’s head

      Which lead to the voter fraud getting caught every which way

      Because the people looked for it 😊 and found it

      And PS: a leak from Hillary’s camp

      The night of the election Podesta did the talking because Hillary was in her hotel room drunk 🍸🍸🍸 lush!

    Just after I mentioned the rather small, marginally organized anti-Trump demonstrations in NOLA the 10 PM news shows larger ones that hit downtown into the Quarter spray painting graffiti and breaking windows.
    For those of you with unique speech patterns in your area you know what I mean when I say the rioters the news interviewed did not sound local. Because of NOLA’s rather freewheeling culture we have a lot of transient youth coming through, pre-Katrina we had a thriving homeless youth population that imhabited thecarea around the Quarter, many living under the docks on the Mississippi and sharing squats in crack houses. The infrastructure, including ‘safe’ houses, is already here for external organizations to exploit, let’s see if someone does…or already has.

              I went to a lot of schools too, but most of it was because the boomers were so numerous that they moved us to whatever school had room that particular year. I was in one school from K-2, then two schools in 3rd grade (we moved), one in 4th, two in 5th, one in 6th, one in 7-9, and finally high school in a different state, 10-12.

      A friend at work yesterday mentioned that Trump has no experience in governing.

      I pointed out that Obama was a community organizer, and always in either school or government.

      He said, at least Obama was a Senator, and therefore has experience in politics. (Said as if that was a good thing.)

      If I had a quick wit, I would have told him that Trump built skyscrapers and resorts and golf courses and casinos all over the world, and that to do that effectively, and make a profit, without actually picking up a hammer, a shovel, or the keys to a cement truck himself, that he has to GOVERN.

I haven’t ever had to think of being in the area of a forest fire, since I’d never lived in such an area until we moved here last year, but when we got the alert on the weather last week it really was a reality check as I contemplated our house sitting here surrounded by nothing but woods and forest land on three sides. I’m wondering how citizens are alerted to possible danger in our little rural area…guess I need to find out.

    The Man Who Put Oregon Christian Bakers Out of Business Just Got Beaten at Polls By REPUBLICAN

    http://ijr.com/2016/11/732759-the-man-who-put-oregon-christian-bakers-out-of-business-just-got-beaten-at-polls-by-republican/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social

    For the first time in 14 years, Oregon voters elected a Republican to a state office, but there’s a bit more to the story than simply a surprising win in a deep blue state.

    Lawmaker Dennis Richardson, a respected, though losing, candidate for Oregon governor in 2014, came back to defeat well-known Democrat, Brad Avakian, in the race for Secretary of State.

    Avakian is the state bureaucrat who went after the business of the Christian bakers, Sweetcakes by Melissa in 2013. The owners, Melissa and Aaron Klein, refused to create a wedding cake for a lesbian couple. Though the bakery served gay customers, the couple believed that by participating in the wedding ceremony, they were condoning the marriage, which conflicted with their Christian beliefs.

    Avakian’s Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) went after the Kleins, resulting in them being forced to close their business.

    Aaron Klein tells Independent Journal Review that the state garnished their bank accounts and assets to satisfy a $135,000 fine. In all, he says, the state took $144,000 from them.

    I’m Getting Nervous About All These Calls for Trump to Unify with the Losers

    http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2016/11/10/i_m_getting_nervous_about_all_these_calls_for_trump_to_unify_with_the_losers

    … The time to unify is after we have forced them into surrender just like we did the Japanese in World War II. But the days of unifying with the losers because they’re mad and we don’t want the media saying mean things about us, they lost. And, folks, they have been losing since 2010. Obama would not have won his two elections were it not for his race. I am convinced that his approval numbers — people say, “Rush, how can you say what you’re saying. Obama’s got 53% approval.”

    No, he doesn’t. His policies were unilaterally rejected in this election, folks. The presidency of Barack Obama was sent packing. That is exactly what was on the ballot, and we have with his own words if you recall. Part of his campaign — his ego couldn’t help it — he’s out there campaigning (imitating Obama), “My legacy is all about this. My issues are on the ballot. Hillary Clinton represents a continuation of everything and all the progress we made.”
