no borders~
How can a president of our country say: "In the 21th century, we are defined NOT by our borders, but by our bonds." As funny as it may sound, Obama’s words reminded me of John Lennon’s song that was called: Imagine. The following are the words, with my commentary:
Imagine there’s no heaven (No, I can’t imagine that)
It’s easy if you try (It’s not easy for a believer)
No hell below us (So, what do we say, Mr. Lennon: anything goes in our society; no punishments; no afterlife?)
Above us only sky (You missed the heaven above and all of God’s court)
Imagine all the people
Living for today…
Imagine there’s no countries (Ahhh. That’s when your song, Mr. Lennon: came to mind; when Mr. Obama redefined our country)
It isn’t hard to do (It’s impossible to do, unless we choose to become mystical)
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too (Ah yes, Mr. Lennon. You would continue to feel right at home in our country where the minority continues in attempt to destroy religion/authority that would cast light on their sins)
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace…(Your dream, mr. Lennon: would be a false, godless peace)
You may say I’m a dreamer (Your entitled to dream)
But I’m not the only one (Yet, your philosophy is thankfully, and I believe will always be: only the minority in this country)
I hope someday you’ll join us (No way: your way is death!)
And the world will be as one ( Your philosophy would create more division, chaos and death..and a death of the spirit: than you imagined)
Imagine no possessions (It’s funny, Mr. Lennon: you wrote that sound when you were a multimillionare. So, how much did you really imagined?)
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world…
You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one

Yeah, so it sounds like Mr. Obama would fit right at home in John Lennon’s world. But Mr. Obama apparently doesn’t fit right at home in the world (the country) that he is living in, now. Hey! It’s great to be mystical. Jesus greatest prayer was, "Father, that they may all be one…" And if Mr. Obama wants to preach in a spiritual manner about the brotherhood of God: I welcome it. But he doesn’t have the right to redefine our country. Or maybe Mr. Obama would like to talk to all the veterans of this country and say, "hey, I appreciate your service. But I don’t believe that you were really figthing for this country, because there are no borders, just bonds between one another. In other words, you soldiers are simply citizens of the world. Yeah, you were essentially killing your fellow brother and sister, regardless of what land they had happened to have resided in. They weren’t evil people. It was the system that produces greed, hate, power: that was evil. Eliminate borders and were on a way to creating a spiritual brotherhood of man!"
And maybe if he could, he could speak to the thousand of veterans, starting with the founders of our country:
"You weren’t really fighting and dying for indepedence regarding where you wanted to reside (your country). After all, this land isn’t really ours: it is just God’s gift to us. And so we much share it with all of God’s people. You have hear it say countless times down thru the ages that we are a sovereign nation. But I’m here to tell you today: it’s an offensive term to many people: sovereign. It evokes feelings of great pride; passionate feeling of love for one’s country; and it may appear to others that we are lording it over people; or looking down on other people’s because we have such great power. Therefore, I ban the saying of ‘that’ word."
So……how can it be that President Barack Obama on Wednesday condemned Arizona’s crackdown and pushed instead for a federal fix the nation could embrace. And when he foolishly says: "In the United States of America, no law-abiding person – be they an American citizen, a legal immigrant, or a visitor or tourist from Mexico – should ever be subject to suspicion simply because of what they look like," …it shows his ignorance or his deception. Because the following is what the Arizona law requires:
The Arizona law requires police to question people about their immigration status if there’s reason to suspect they’re in the country illegally, and it makes it a state crime to be in the U.S. illegally. (and let me add: it is already a federal crime to be in the country illegally) People may be questioned about their status if they’ve been stopped by police who are in the process of enforcing another law
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And I want to work in my hero, in respond to another one of our homeland security secretaries.
John Morton, assistant secretary of homeland security for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, made the comment: that his agency will not necessarily process illegal immigrants referred to them by Arizona authorities: during a meeting on Wednesday with the editorial board of the Chicago Tribune, the newspaper reports.
"I don’t think the Arizona law, or laws like it, are the solution," Morton told the newspaper.

Sooooooooo, then one of my heroes, Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-AL, said it appeared the Obama adminstration is "nullifying existing law" and suggested Morton may not be the right person for his post if he fails to enforce federal immigration law.
"If he feels he cannot enforce the law, he shouldn’t have the job," Sessions told Fox News. "That makes him, in my view, not fulfilling the responsibilities of his office."
Sessions said the U.S. government has "systematically failed" to enforce federal immigration law and claimed Morton’s statement is an indication that federal officials do not plan on working with Arizona authorities regarding its controversial law.
"They’re telegraphing to every ICE agency in America that they really don’t intend on cooperating with Arizona," Sessions said. "The federal government should step up and do it. It’s their responsibility."
Sooooo….I say that’s let’s stick to our vision that was seen, some 233 years ago! Let us live with the hope that our leaders will do their sworn duty of upholding our constitution by protecting our people against all foreign invasions. And that above all: that we may embrace freedom! Embrace freedom of religion! And not have our country be destroyed by a handful of people who don’t have the interest in America as their priority. Let us not imagine a new world (godless order, which much of Europe is heading towards) order where America will just be another country…..and maybe without any of our cherish rights as citizens. In the new world order, maybe there will just be ‘rights of world citizens.’ Most Americans: don’t want any part of a new world order, though we know it’s coming; the Bible even tells us that. But we need not give Satan a hand in creating the new world order.

When there are no more borders Christ will have come again, Satan will have been defeated and we will all be sitting at the throne of God.

It’s all unfolding in front of our eyes.. this “new world order”, prophecied thousands of years ago. I can not imagine our beautiful America being no longer the country that we know of. Where is the outrage? All I see is apathy… November 2012 (Election Day) can not get here too quickly.

No Heaven. Can’t even imagine it. Only a believer can feel the true feeling. Can’t even imagine our country with no borders. Its so sad what our country is becoming. And may I add that your last paragraph is so powerful.. And it scares me that it could all come to pass.

I have studied American History before and I couldn’t imagine what’s happening. All the best to your country.

All we can do is to talk to everyone we can, and vote every opportunity that we get to try to change this imbalance of political power in our nation. Obama insists that he wants to reshape America into a nation that we can all be proud of. Well, I am already proud of it, and shudder every time he apoligizes to another country for our behavior. He needs to grow a set, and be a man!
Warning Comment
You get on a high horse when someone tries to do well in the world, and ironically you talk more like Bin Laden than a Christian. Jesus would not have shunned Lennon or Obama, but welcomed them as brothers. Think about that. (oh and finally, when people like you stop insisting that America is a theocracy, then you may accuse everyone who can actually read The Constitution of trying to destroy religion — until then, back off)

During HIS administration we are a nation with no borders, HOWEVER , soon , next presidential election we will have a president who WILL Protect our borders and we willhave borders again. lol that’s the FIRST time he told the truth, …about having no borders ..(dueto his presidency)
Warning Comment
I like Ann Coulter, I don’t agree with every singlethings she says but for the most part I likethat she tells THE TRUTH ..most times
Warning Comment
President Obama did not “re-define” our country, as Bush did with his errant and atrocious lawlessness. Obama was simply saying that we should NOT alienate the world the way the Bush and Cheney did, and that we must work together as a community if we are to get anything done. Ostracizing our allies and ignoring and denying the humanity of our “enemies” is absolutely uncalled for.

I like how several agreeing noters are older people and therefore less likely to agree with change.

RYN lol smiling here. Seems you read ‘between the lines ” which is not what I said lol. I’m not saying that having a new or different adminstration Will close ourborders. What I am saying is that obviously–as proven today, this administration won’t . So, in my thinking, it’s time for new. If NEW doesn’t work, there will always be another election. BY voting them ALL out now, we, the people will show that we mean business! ….Imagine voting them all out , and they will see the power of the vote. THey are seeing it already. Look at what happened in HAWAII this week? A Republican gained, got voted in , for a seat that has been held by democrats for ages and ages. AND this is happening all over our country. So…let’s get out there, show our power. AND , yes, unfortunately, IF this doesn’t work, there will always be another election. But hopefully, since the new guys will see that the voters willcome out and vote, maybe these new guys and gals weill be better, work harder.

I like the idea that people OTHER than politians (career politicians ) are running for elections now. It’s about time. Perhaps we will soon have government by the people not by the career politicians.

I would have voted for John Lennon because I think his intentions would have been far less arrogant.
