Nancy, Harry: Don't You Dare Punish Us!!

Dear Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Most Democrat and a few Independent and  Republican Senators and Representatives:
 
We have, written, signed petitions, blogged, phoned, protested everything but go on a hunger strike, and bleed a vein, and  to this very day, you fail to understand how vitally important it is that we continue to explore and drill for oil in the U.S.  
 
Remember when you cause a problem by raising prices or limiting growth in one area you compound the problem in all other areas as well.  It is called the trickle side-ways effect.  In this case there may be no trickling at all.  
 
Much is at stake here not just the whims of the Environmental Lobbyists, who won't be affected when we can't afford to heat our homes, or feed or families in the winter.  Will they help us when we are freezing?  Will they drive our sick children to the doctors.  Will they supply the fuel for the Emergency Life Flights to the hospital?  Will they invent the new ingredient (replacing petroleum) needed to manufacture pharmaceuticals like topical creams;  medical supplies?  Distillates are used to make kerosene and diesel fuel and other products we take for granted and are a necessity.  Are you willing to pay our heating bills from you own pocket?
 
Until we perfect or fully develop multiple energy sources our reliance on oil and coal, natural gas and their distillates and by-products must continue.  Exploration, drilling and mining must continue in a economically and environmentally responsible manner.  Nuclear power plants must be sustained, continued and new plants must be built.  Windmills, Solar Power, Fuel Cells, bugs that excrete, oil plants that grow oil beans. even ethanol some of these are still new technologies that have limitations and strengths depending on their location. 
 
The problem with biological renewables is that you need much more space and product and appropriate climate conditions like NO DROUGHT, FLOODS in IOWA etc.  Also when you use plants normally used as food you run the risk of starving the very people and animals whose lives depend on NOURISHMENT, which is on-going even as we speak and not just in this country but by other nations in need of our help. 
 
Energy Facilities and Sources are only as safe and as efficient as the folks that run them.   I ask you again to allow our US oil companies to explore and drill petroleum without hindrance or penalization.  Remove the moratorium.  
 
Remember we always need a Fail-Safe in the event one of these technologies fails and trust me they will and they always do and that is why the back-up resources are needed.
 
So please folks have a heart, think of those less fortunate then you who can't afford alternative energy sources, hybrid cars, windmills and solar panels and think of us who still use oil furnaces, natural gas, diesel, kerosene, etc.
 
STOP PUNISHING US!
 
Sincerely,
 
Mrs. LMH

Have You Been Seduced By The Dark Side.

Dear Secular Progressives, Most Marxists, Some Socialists, Lefty Liberals, and Contrary Conservatives:

This is addressed to those of you with whom I have had rather lively discussions and disagreements and those yet to spar.  Please know that I hold no animosity or ill will towards you, on the contrary I look at you guys as brothers and sisters in a large, loving and extremely-dysfunctional, family and you are in my prayers. 

You may think: Has Conservabear mellowed or softened is she feeling a touch of guilt?  NOT BY A LONG SHOT.  I am still the same grouchy old bellowing bear I have always been and will remain that way.  My family is in agreement that I am an equal opportunity bellower just ask them.  I also have my good points.  When you figure them out get back to me.  Having said that I will now continue: 

Some time has passed since I decided to add my bellowings to the legions of voices trying to be heard over the din of the yet other voices trying to be heard.  I have read the news; internet and paper, watched and listened to the talking heads on TV and radio, and read the blogs and comments on many sites.  I have come to many conclusions one of which may offend a certain group.  What group is that you may ask?  I will tell you it is the Secular Progressive View.  Yes once again I am about to show my bias and stick up for the Conservative View though not always right is more sound than Left

The Secular Progressive View:

1. You believe the USA is responsible for most of the worlds troubles.
2. You refuse to acknowledge or support the good we do or attempt to bring to other nations.
3. You do not understand the US is full of decent caring people, individuals, mind you who actually contribute and make a difference in peoples lives whether,  be it one person or many.
4. You have joined the accuse America bandwagon.
5. You may have Christian values but are very judgmental about things that require a more balanced approach.

If you want people to think about the consequences of one's actions that is one thing but to constantly drag your Country into the mud by promoting the godless and deluded is suspect.  There actually exist evil doers seeking to destroy us with their misguided, misconceptions and perceptions of a Holy, Just, Merciful, Forgiving, and Loving God.  Your alignment with our enemies does not help anyone see the light of Jesus.  Yes, there actually exists good people with a just heart. 

Yes, you should pray for your enemies and you should pray God saves the souls of these people.  Pray God convicts these people and throws them from their horses as The Apostle Paul was thrown to the ground. 

There will be those, however who will never see the light, they will turn away from the very truth that seeks to free them from bondage.  I assure you the road is indeed wide and filled with many who travel the road to perdition.  Narrow is the road with few who travel the road of righteousness.  I was one of these people who traveled the road to perdition. It was only by the grace and love of God that I found space on the narrow road. There are still challenges on that road. Challenges that must be overcome.  You see folks I am a person who is really imperfect and I must battle the destructive demons in my own head daily.   I have paid dearly for the destructive thoughts and actions in my own life and would not wish anyone the tortures I have inflicted upon myself due to my own misguided perceptions.  Praise God there are actually days when I can think uplifting thoughts and apply them to my life. 

My challenge to you sir:  Pray for your leaders.  "For the Heart of the King is in the Hand of The Lord."   
My mother always said,   "Do not be so eager for the day to come when you get a new boss.  You may get one who is worse"  My Mom was correct.  There were very few bosses, that I could respect or that I deemed fair.   
 
Yes,  America makes mistakes and we are imperfect but if not for the good and the God fearing, the moral and the just, the kind and the loving, the productive hard working ethical, regular Jane and Joe who make up this country we would not be in the place to help other nations, other people who are most grateful for our help, who desperately need our help.
 
To conclude: Don't be so quick to crucify America, pray for her, and act according to the goodness and generosity of your heart. 
 
"God Bless America ... Stand Beside Her and Guide Her..." AMEN
 
 Sincerely,
 
Conservabear

Yes, I Was Once A Liberal!!

My views have since changed.  I was born a liberal but then don't all babies emerge from the womb with that inclination.  As a teenager I wrote poetry; took trumpet lessons (don't ask) and volunteered for all sorts of causes, from The United Farm Workers to the Audubon Society.  Now this doesn't necessarily shout liberal but I was beginning to think the world revolved around me that the world owed me and so I became jaded and cynical.  I could see, I needed to change. Gradually, I went through a metamorphosis.  I could see that in actuality many of my views were more conservative in nature.  I am pro- Jesus - in all His teachings; the whole died for my sins; resurrection; eternal life and reaching out to others; which needs lots 'o' work deal; pro-life; small government; no income tax; individual responsibility for my happiness; balanced budget; etc.  It doesn't mean that I don't have my causes but they are a little more realistic in my expectations a little more tempered if you will.  As long as I remain alive on this very imperfect planet of ours I will need forgiveness,growth and human outreach.  I am not perfect, just ask my husband and the dog.

Venus Aliens Abduct Conservative Leaders!!

My Fellow Americans,

 It is evident to me that our true Conservative Leaders the ones who would stand-up for what is right, the ones who desire our support, our votes and our rapidly dwindling financial contributions, have been abducted by Illegal Aliens from Venus (whose leader is Al Gore) and are being imprisoned in a Lock-Box.  It appears that the remnants of our Conservative Leaders lack the Golden Stones necessary to properly defend U.S. the American People against the onslaught of radical, left-wing, progressive, unwarranted, Marxist, accusations hurled at US by the Democrat Party, and their greatest representative, Senator Obama.  I ask again : Where are our Conservative Leaders?  We need people who aren't afraid to say the truth, and to do the moral and ethical work, to push through bills that are logical and sound and would benefit the USA.  Someone must here me somewhere.  Help Us Please!  Where are y ou folks hiding?One might ask: "Bear what gives, why so angry?"  Why so UN-trusting ? To these questions, I would have to answer.  I am sick to death of being blamed for the ills of the world.  I am tired of hearing; We don't do enough to help our fellow man.   We use too much energy.  We eat too much.   We Poop too much.   I say Bull-patties!!  Listen folks if the jack-asses that run these various developing nations and third world countries don't have the intelligence, humanity, compassion or moral fiber to help their own people.  What makes one think that we can do any better especially when there are evil dictators who don't want our help in fact these people want US and Israel dead and trust me we are all lumped together on this verdict.  When does it stop?  Mr. Obama I am tired of this.  Quit your d--- whining.  We use fluorescent lighting and it hurts my eyes and interferes with my radio.  We don't drive an SUV, a VCR or a BVD.  We recycle. We freeze in the winter and roast in the summer.  We don't go away for vacations.  We can't afford the gas, the taxes the medical co-pays and the charities. What the h--- more do you want? -  Our blood, well we can't give you that as we are not physically able our blood pressures are too high so the Red Cross said see ya.  How about Mr. Obama you stop trying to figure out how to reason with vipers and sit down with US and tell us how to get more oil out of the our country.   Get this Mr "O" you can't reason with bullies they should be wiped off the face of the earth and I should know bullies endangered my life when I went to a Catholic Grade School no less.  There was a she-devil child in 2nd to 4th grades who used to stab my hands and my arms with a fountain pen until I almost got tetanus.  Was there reasoning with this hag?  I tried and so did my mother.   Give her another chance.  No I said. She should have been thrown into the fires of Hades.  Hopefully today she has changed.  But I don't know and I don't care.   The only time you give people like these the time of day is when they repent of their sins, ask forgiveness, ask Jesus etc. and even then you verify.
