Now that the Iowa Freedom
Summit has officially kicked off
the 2016 Republican presidential
primaries, it’s time that, as a matter of party policy, Republicans
agreed on who is a natural born
citizen and who is not. Three
conservatives… Senator Ted Cruz
(R-TX), Governor Bobby Jindal
(R-LA), and Senator Marco Rubio
(R-FL)… are prominently mentioned as potential candidates.
But the question arises, are they
eligible to serve? And if not, are
conservatives and Republicans
willing to turn their backs on the
U.S. Constitution, cloaking themselves in the specious argument
that, if the Democrats could get
away with it for eight years, why
shouldn’t they? In other words,
are Cruz, Jindal, and Rubio supporters willing to make the case
that two wrongs make a right…
the Constitution be damned?
If Republicans wish to
avoid embarrassment and a potential constitutional crisis midway
through a presidential campaign,
party leaders would be welladvised to resolve the question
before the issue blows up in their
collective faces. By doing so,
they can kill two birds with one
stone: 1) they can prove to the
American people that, unlike
Democrats, Republicans still
honor the words and the spirit
of the U.S. Constitution, and 2)
they can permanently stain the
Obama legacy by shining the
light of day on his ineligibility…
eight years too late, but better late
than never.
Some Republicans may
be foolish enough to think that
Democrats, after nominating and
electing an ineligible candidate
in 2008 and again in 2012, would
hesitate to make a political issue
out of the “natural born” status
of Cruz, Jindal, or Rubio. Those
who make that assumption simply don’t know Democrats. As
former Defense Secretary Donald
Rumsfeld remarked in his book,
Rumsfeld’s Rules, “Never assume
the other guy would never do
something you would never do.”
When the Founders drafted
Article II of the U.S. Constitution,
they were highly concerned that
the chief executive of the United
States should not, under any
circumstance, be even remotely
subject to or encumbered by foreign influences.
On July 25, 1787, John
Jay, a member of the Continental
Congress and the first Chief Justice of the United States Supreme
Court, sent a letter to General
George Washington, president
of the Constitutional Convention,
expressing his concern over the
prospect that an individual with
some level of potential foreign allegiance, however remote, might
be elected to serve as president
of the United States and commander-in-chief of the Army and
the Navy. He wrote: “Permit me
to hint whether it would be wise
and seasonable to provide a strong
check to the admission of foreignSee

they will lead to the fall of the
American republic.
A top federal health official said
Thursday the recent outbreak of
measles that first appeared in
California’s Disneyland probably came from overseas.
“We don’t know exactly how
this outbreak started, but we
do think it was likely a person
infected with measles overseas,”
Dr. Anne Schuchat of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention told reporters.
Popular radio host Michael Savage is not the least bit surprised
by the news.
“Immigrants and epidemics
– I’ve been sounding the alarm
bell on this since I began in
radio in 1994,” Savage wrote to
WND. “The socialist government, media, academic, medical
apparatchiks have looked the
other way or changed the origin
of numerous illnesses which
were once eradicated in our
once-first world nation.”
Savage, who holds a Ph.D in nutritional ethnomedicine, continued: “Measles had been nearly
eradicated until about 15 years
ago. When Clinton busted our
border with Mexico, the floodgates were opened to infected
migrants. Measles, TB, even

Rev. Graham: Secularists Are
‘Anti-Christ’ and ‘They’ve Taken
Control of Washington’
In the Obama years, the lie
became not only a campaign
strategy or a means to enact
damaging policies, but an institution of government; the
Presidency itself, a lie of monstrous proportions guarded by
the complicit and the willingly
ignorant.
In the Obama years, the Congress finally clearly demonstrated that although we have
elections, there is no longer a
government representing its
citizens, but an entity serving
itself, operating outside of
Constitutional constraints and
unaccountable to the American
people for the benefit of the few
at the expense of the many.
By Michael W. Chapman
Secularism followed on the
heels of communism after the
Berlin Wall came down, and the
two ideologies are essentially
the “same thing” because they
are “godless” and “anti-Christ,”
said Reverend Franklin Graham,
adding that the secularists have
“taken control of our country”
and “taken control of Washington.”
“We live in a secular society
led by people that call themselves progressives,” said Rev.
Graham, son of renowned
evangelist Billy Graham, at the
Oklahoma State Evangelism
Conference on Jan. 26. “When
communism, the Berlin Wall
came down, everybody said,
‘we won,’ and [then] secularism
came.”
“Secularism and communism are
the same thing,” he said. “They’re
godless. They’re anti-Christ. So
now we have the secularists
who’ve taken control of our
country. They’ve taken control
of Washington. They’ve taken
control our city governments, our
local governments, our school
boards all across the country,
and we have just sat back. It’s
happened and we haven’t even
realized it’s happened.”
He continued, “Now, you say,
Franklin, your father [Billy
Graham] wouldn’t get on to
these subjects. Wait a second.
My father, when he was going
to school, they had a Bible in
school. When he was going to
school, they had the Ten Commandments on the wall. When he
was going to school, you could
pray in school, and the teachers
would lead in those prayers.”
“Our country has changed.,” said
Franklin Graham. “ We’ve got to
take a stand. We cannot back up,
we cannot retreat.”
The reverend, who oversees the
organization his father founded,
the Billy Graham Evangelistic
Association (BGEA) and the
international relief group Samaritan’s Purse, went on to say that
Christian men and women must
enter the political arena to turn
America in the right direction.
“Let me tell you something, the
church needs to get involved in
politics,” he said. “Now I’m not
talking about Baptist or Republicans and Tea Party – I don’t even
know who they are – but I have
no confidence that any of these
politicians or any party is going
to turn this country around. The
only hope for this country is for
men and women of God to stand
up and take a stand.”
“We need men and women of
God who take these local elections serious, so we can take
back these various offices and
have men and women of God
who believe in the Bible, who
stand on the word of God,” said
Rev. Graham. “And let’s send
to Washington men and women
who believe in God and stand on
the word of God and His Son the
Lord Jesus Christ, who are not
afraid.”
“America has changed and it’s
not coming back unless the
church takes a stand,” he said.
“There are storms that are coming, and we find ourselves in
these storms and many times,
we as a church, we run. And we
run to the wrong place. You see,
Jesus is in the boat [with us]. All
we have to do is call Him.”
“Call on His name,” said Rev.
Graham. “But the secularist
and the humanist, no. You
mention the name of Christ and
they jump all over you. I get
jumped on all the time. I don’t
care. I really don’t. I gave my life
to Christ.”
Rev. Franklin Graham, 62, is married, has five children and lives in
Boone, N.C. He is the oldest son
of Pastor Billy Graham, the most
influential evangelical preachers of the last 60 years, whose
Christian message has reached an
estimated worldwide audience of
more than 2 billion people.
In the Obama years, disseminating either disinformation
or no information, a devoted
media helped create the intellectual darkness and vacant
servitude required to carry
out the strategy of their leftist
Messiah; a country without
any sense of its own history
and traditions, where the lowinformation voter would slouch
towards Obama’s imaginary
utopia through a combination
of governmental coercion and
the hedonist nihilism of a painless, amusement-sodden, and
stress-free America managed
by a nanny-state.
In the Obama years, we see the
resurrection of the economic
feudalism of the Dark Ages, a
system dominated by wealthy
special interests that inhibit the
upward mobility of the poor
and the middle class.
In the Obama years, like during
the Dark Ages, we witness the

By Neil Carson (CKA Bob McDowell)
An Important Caution
February 1, 2015
Improving VA Access
Early this week, I introduced a
bill to fix problems that rural
veterans may encounter when
using the new Veteran’s Choice
Program. It will serve as the
House companion bill to legislation authored by Senator Jerry
Moran. It’s a privilege to join his
fight to help many of our nation’s
greatest heroes living in rural
America. With this bill, Senator
Moran and I are furthering our
commitment to ensuring that
those who have fought for our
very rights and freedoms receive
the care they deserve.

Ending Human Trafficking
I’m proud to say that the House
passed bills aimed at ending
human trafficking. These terrible acts have grown to the
third-largest criminal enterprise
in the world, which is why it’s
so important that we take action
now. These bills focus on improving methods of identifying
and helping victims, preventing trafficking situations, and
improving law enforcement’s
ability to prosecute the criminals
responsible.

The Conservative View
By Russell Turner
Supply and Demand
Over the past several weeks
we Americans have enjoyed lower
gasoline prices. The lower price is
due to the fact that there is abundant
supply of oil in the world market.
Whether the oil is pumped here in
the United States or on the other
side of the world affects the overall
price. The Saudi Arabians have
maintained increased production
because of their fear of the shale
gas and oil production here in
America. They understand that
many companies here in America
have borrowed huge sums of money to get into business; they know
that if the price of oil stays low
they cannot repay their loans and
they will go out of business. The
lesson to be learned is very simple,
the more supply of any commodity the lower the price will be. It is
sad that the liberals in Washington
cannot understand that simple law
of economics.
A couple of days ago I listened to an interview of a person
who wanted to stop the burning of
coal and oil and even went on to
propose doing away with nuclear
energy. If we Americans want to
maintain our current standard of
living we must have a reliable and
affordable source of energy. Solar
panels and windmills will not

Senate who proceeded to ‘leak’ it

Knowledge of that incident made
it easy for me to accept that such

minor adjustments to the receiving
equipment.
It has surprised me that not
one report in the “news media”
has come to my attention about
this matter. It would have been
preferable to hear back from the
Tulsa County Undersheriff if they
had received any such reports in
Tulsa, or nearby, County to provide
added evidence of the proliferation of such activity in our area,
or the State of Oklahoma. But
this seemed to be so critical that it
called for passing the word on both
electronically and in print to alert as
many as possible to the existence of
such equipment and its uses.
In short, the often repeated
advice of police and others to be
continuously aware of what is
going on around us needs to be
repeated again, and keep up to date
with new developments. My cars

Whether
you are building a bridge or a

are over when the building is completed. Maybe our lawmakers are
so used to the way government creates jobs; when some department

cannot terminate it and they go on
forever.
When government creates
more jobs it is the taxpayer who
is footing the bill for their employment. The Keystone project
is funded by private businesses.
We Americans need to realize that
the increased supply of oil in the

From My Pointless View...by Ruth Bivens Delaware County Co-op announces opportunities for

area youth College Scholarship
Wrapping Up The Conference
Here we are, in Dothan,
Alabama, headed for Enterprize. Today is the last day of
the Alabama Free Will Baptist
annual Mission Conference. I
am sipping my second cup of
coffee, hoping it will get me
through the morning. As in
years past, this has been a time
of special blessing, and a time to
re-connect with some precious
friends.
Wednesday night we
wrapped up our time in northern Alabama with a service in
Berry. Several years ago a group
from that church came down to
Altamira and helped with the
construction of a lovely little
church on the back side of the
Bible Institute property. They
were a fun group, always kidding and laughing while they
worked. Hubby quickly named
one of the men “Billy Bob.”
Who knows why. But, the whole
gang fell right in and began to
call Kenneth Kennedy his new
name. He is a short little man
and can talk a blue streak.
One day Billy Bob decided he would just take a
walk and left the rest of the
gang working. They got together and cut a board in the
shape of a head stone, wrote
“RIP Billy Bob” in large letters
on it, fastened Kenneth’s hammer to it, then set it up in the
church yard. They agreed that
they would call his wife and tell
her he had died.
We all thought the headstone was so funny they decided
to have a funeral. I have a picture of the work crew standing
in a semi-circle around the
headstone, hats in their hands,
heads bowed, and a close up of
the headstone with Kenneth’s
hammer attached.
I have carried those photographs inside the cover of my
Bible all this time. Last week,
when I knew we were going
to the Berry FWB Church, I
showed them to Hubby. He insisted that I had to show them to
our Alabama director, Brother
Rick Cash. So, I did. Brother
Rick borrowed them, scanned
them, and added them to the
slide presentation he gave that
night before they turned the
service over to us.
When that picture of the
funeral came up there was a
gasp, then a roar of laughter.
The person who laughed the
loudest was Kenneth Kennedy.
He has not been in good health
lately, and recently had the flu.
When we arrived at the church
that night his brother told us that
he probably would not come
because he had been feeling
so bad. But, he had been at the
church on Sunday and knew that
we were going to be there, so he
came. It was great to get to see
him again, and know that he is
still up and at’em.
As we have driven through
northern Alabama, from appointment to appointment, we
are always appalled at the number of dead deer we see beside
the highways. At night, when
we were returning to Eldridge
where we have been staying,
we were always driving through
pine forests. I would be praying
all the way that the Lord would
keep us safe. I did not want us
to have to deal with a deer flying
up through our windshield.
Kenneth lives about a mile
north of Eldridge where he has a
good amount of land, with even
some small lakes on the property. He told us that he was out
working with his son one day
not long ago and they saw two
big bucks in one of the fields
where they were making hay.
The next day when they went
back to work he counted 40, yes
that is forty, does in that field!
I know that deer hunting is a
very popular sport here, and we
have even seen deer in Brother
Rick Cash’s yard. Now I have a
better understanding of why the
people complain about there being so many deer, and hunt them
like crazy. It is more than just
for the mounted head, bragging
rights, and the meat. If there are
that many
deer on
Kenneth’s
farm, one
wonders
how many
crops they
destroy
throughout the
state.

wearing a confining sling on her
right arm the rest of the time.
We considered waiting until Friday to come South, just to keep
her from feeling pressured to
take care of us, but they insisted
we had to get here Thursday.
They were going to a surprise
birthday party for a lady from
their church and the host couple
wanted us to be there. So, after
driving all day, I only had time
to rest for a few minutes before
we headed out to the party.
The hostess had decorated
her living-dining area with balloons and banners, and when the
lady arrived she was thoroughly
surprised. She had thought that
they were just going for a meal
with friends. She had been surprised that several people called
to make sure she was going to
go and no one offered to come
by and pick her up. She wept
as they sang Happy Birthday
to her and draped her shoulder
with a “Birthday Queen” banner. We thoroughly enjoyed the
evening, having the chance to
visit with folks who normally
just see us in the pulpit and don’t
have a chance to ask questions
or share.
Friday Hubby and I did
some errands in Dothan, checking out some information he
needed. Then we met Ricky and
Theresa and went to lunch at a
terrific Mexican restaurant. In
the course of the day we visited
several thrift shops and found
some good bargains.
That night there was a concert at the First FWB Church,
where Ricky and Theresa attend. They took us to a concert
there a year ago when we were
staying with them. The same
group performed, The Perrys.
They sing Southern Gospel
music, and do a fine job. Last
year we were grieved to see
that the father of the group was
confined to a wheel chair, and
did not even go up on stage. He
had a stroke while he was driving his car a year before and it
was nothing short of miraculous
that he survived. His wife explained Friday night that he had
five areas in his brain that were
involved with the bleeding.
She told about standing
by his bedside in ICU for six
weeks, while he was in a coma.
She said she prayed continually
that he would open his eyes and
tell her one more time that he
loved her. Then, in one day he
had three Gran-Mal seizures and
the doctor told the family that
there was not much hope that he
would survive. But, he opened
his eyes. A day and a half later
he spoke, and in a couple of
days he started singing.

Jay Community Center, located
at 429 South 9th Street, Jay.
County Republican Chairman
Robert Carter encourages all
registered Republicans to attend
and stated, “This is a great opportunity for Delaware County
Republicans to participate in
our country’s political structure.
It is important that we hear the
thoughts and opinions of Republicans from all areas of the
county! Regardless of what
some may tell you, true control
starts at the local level. Come
and be a voice for our cities, our
county, our state and our government,” he added.
Delegates elected at the county
convention will represent Delaware County at the Oklahoma
Republican State Convention,
which will be held in Norman
on Saturday, April 11. “Only
registered Republicans may
be elected as a state delegate,”
Carter explained. “To be considered for election, a valid voter
ID must be presented at sign-in at
the county convention. This ID
card includes the voter’s precinct
number, which will be needed to
participate at the County Convention.”

New French law Sets Precedent
Cellular Phone Task Force
Today the French Parliament
passed a law addressing electromagnetic fields and electromagnetic hypersensitivity. While the
new law does not go nearly far
enough, it is the first of its kind in
the world. Among its provisions
are the following:
1. Anyone who intends to build
one or more radio installations
regulated by the ANFR (France’s
equivalent of the FCC) must
submit to the local government,
if requested by the mayor, calculations of electromagnetic
fields that will be generated.
This information must be made
available to the public.
2. A national dialogue committee on levels of public exposure
to electromagnetic fields is created within the ANFR. This
committee will give information
to all stakeholders. The ANFR
will give annual reports to the
dialogue committee on the results of all electromagnetic field
measurements in France as well
as measures taken to reduce
exposure levels at “atypical”
locations where the levels are
greater than usual. The ANFR
will compile a annual census of
atypical exposure locations and
periodically report on measures
taken to reduce exposure at such
locations.
3. Within one year from today,

this report shows the disturbing truth: 1,000 undocumented

Grassley said he will continue
working to ensure that immigration officials are taking criminal
aliens off the streets and sending
them out of the country.
Meanwhile, the senator is still
waiting to hear how many of the

Obeying God or Playing God
By Walt Thrun
On the evening of January
20th president Obama delivered
his sixth state of the union address. Many citizens of Rogers
County didn’t get a chance to
hear the speech because they
were attending an exhilarating
prayer meeting at RSU called: A
City on our Knees. At the very
time the president was speaking participants at that meeting
were praying for God to grant
him wisdom.
Many pundits offered
opinions on the president’s
speech noting the omission of
any mention of Islamism relative to the current war in Iraq
and Syria. According to the
most recent polls such unrest
is the top ranking issue facing
this nation and yet the president
minimized its significance.
There are several other
highly relative ‘I’ words that
were similarly omitted including Isaac, Ishmael, and Israel.
The current Middle East conflict
can be better understood by
knowing the history and prophecy relative to the first two sons
of Abraham.
As far as the significance
of Israel is concerned, it needs
to be remembered that Israel is
God’s chosen nation who serve
as the standard for all other
nations.
When reading the Biblical
instructions God gave to Israel,
it is very enlightening to replace
the word Israel with America.
And remember, the Apostle
Paul stated in the New Testament that God’s dealing with
Israel was written as examples
for this current age.
It began when God called
Abraham from the other side
of the Euphrates River to travel
west to a new land that God
would show him.
“Now the LORD had said
to Abram: ‘Get out of your
country…to a land that I will
show you. I will make you a
great nation…and in you all
the families of the earth shall be
blessed.’” Genesis 12:1-3
Fast forward approximately 765 years to just before the
Israelites entered the promised
land of Canaan after the 430
years in Egypt. Israel had just
been given the oracles of God,
i.e. His laws and commandments.
“Now, O Israel (or America), listen to the statutes and
the judgments which I teach
you to observe…You shall not
add to the word which I command you, nor take from it...”
Deuteronomy 4:1-2
“Therefore be careful to
observe them; for this is your
wisdom and your understanding
in the sight of the peoples who
will hear all these statutes, and
say, ‘Surely this great nation
is a wise and understanding
people.’” Deuteronomy 4:6
The instructions were very
plain; the Israelites were to
observe all God’s law with
no man-made deviations or
amendments. The other nations
would witness Israel’s blessings
and attribute
their success
to obedience
to God.
Moses
then enumerated the
blessings for
Walt Thrun
obedience
and curses for disobedience.
“Now it shall come to
pass, if you diligently obey the
voice of the LORD your God, to
observe carefully all His commandments…that the LORD
your God will set you high
above all nations of the earth.
And all these blessings shall
come upon you…because you
obey the voice of the LORD your
God…” Deuteronomy 28:1-2
Now the examples are
numerous; however, consider
the current relevance of the
following:
“The LORD will open
to you His good treasure; the
heavens, to give the rain to
your land in its season…You
shall lend to many nations, but
you shall not borrow.” Deuteronomy 28:12
However:
“But…if you do not obey
the voice of the LORD your
God, to observe carefully all His
commandments…the alien who
is among you shall rise higher
and higher above you…He
shall lend to you, but you shall
not lend to him; he shall be the
head, and you shall be the tail.”
Deuteronomy 28:15, 43-44
Three significant issues
are covered in these Scripture
passages, i.e. climate change,
multiculturalism, and national
borrowing.
God had previously instructed Israel regarding multiculturalism by stating that
Israel’s laws should apply to all
aliens in the land.
“You shall have the same
law for the stranger (alien) and
for one from your own country…” Leviticus 24:22
How much money does
America owe to foreign nations such as China? And why
does America need to borrow?
Could it possibly be related
to America’s disobedience to
God’s word?
More on the state of the
union address next week.

RICH MUST PAY? Obama budget eyes
tax on overseas corporate profits
In new budget, Obama proposing 14 percent tax on overseas
profits to fund infrastructure projects
Fox News
President Obama will on Monday give Congress his $4 trillion
spending plan for fiscal 2016 that
includes a request for billions of
dollars in much-needed public
works projects -- an idea that has
bipartisan support but little backing for the proposed tax increases
to fund such efforts.
Obama will propose a six-year,
$478 billion public-works program for highway, bridge and
transit upgrades, with half of it to
be financed with a one-time, 14
percent tax on U.S. companies’
overseas profits.
The tax would be due immediately. Under current law, those
profits are subject only to federal taxes if they are returned,
or repatriated, to the U.S., where
they face a top rate of 35 percent.
Many companies avoid U.S.
taxes on those earnings by simply leaving them overseas.
The proposal improves on an
idea that the administration
has pushed since the summer
of 2013. The administration’s
budget last year proposed a
smaller four-year bridge-andHowever, he disapproved on the highway fund. While it paid for

Footprints in History
Bill Madole, Master Mechanic
February 01, 2015
By Bill Chupp
The Sunday School teacher asked little Johnnie if he
knew the parables. “Oh yes,” he
answered. “Which one do you
like the best?” asked the teacher.
“I like the one where someone
loafs and fishes,” he said.
Some time ago, Bill
Madole,
one of my
employees in the
service department,
was contemplating retireBill Chupp
ment. He
is already
several years past the age when
he qualifies for Medicare and
Social Security. I knew he
lived a modest lifestyle and was
not working just to make ends
meet. I asked him, “What are
your hobbies? Do you hunt or
fish?” “No,” he answered. “Do
you bowl or golf?” Again he answered in the negative. Finally
I was running out of options and
asked him point blank, “Bill,
what is your hobby?”
I waited expectantly for
him to answer as he paused with
a thoughtful expression on his
face, then he replied, “I guess
it is pulling wrenches!” “Well,
you can stay around here and
do that all you want, as long as
you want,” I told him. He is
still working and still thinking
about quitting, but every time
there is just one more tractor to
repair, one more challenge to
loosen some bolts and see what
is broken, wore out and needs
repairing and adjusting.
Bill Madole began his
mechanic occupation soon after
graduating from high school.
He worked for D.A. George,
the local John Deere dealer
in Pryor back in the late 50’s
when they had a lot of the two
cylinder popping Johnnies to
repair. John Deere was just beginning to produce the four and
six cylinder engine models that
would carry them to the top of
the tractor industry as a strong
competitor with Case, International Harvester, Oliver, Allis
Chalmers, Massey Ferguson
and Minneapolis Moline.
When John Deere produced the 4020 in the 60’s, they
wrote the book on power shift
transmissions. It was available
in power shift and manual transmission. Fifty years later they
are still in demand and bring top
dollar at sales. I’ve heard that
they are still selling for $9,500
at auctions.
Back to Bill Madole, he
left working for D.A. George
and got a job in the Industrial
Park at the fertilizer plant for
over twenty years until it shut
down. Then he came back to
being a mechanic on tractors.
Bill works on all makes and
models and is a specialist on
those older ones. Recently he
tackled repairing the hydraulics
of an old model Massey Ferguson. The lift cover was rusted
and became a major problem
to disassemble. After replacing the worn parts, he carefully
studied the service manual to
follow the adjustment instructions. Then he mounted a bush
hog on it and the lift worked.
The new tractors manufactured today have evolved
into using more sophisticated
electronics. It requires different
tools, including laptop computers and diagnostic equipment.
The cost of repairs is also much
greater and parts and labor are
more expensive. Farmers are
continually trying to cut costs
and increase efficiency. This
had forced them to use larger
machines that can cover more
acreage in less time.
Farm equipment dealers are stressed with the need
to provide competent service
personnel and increase the size
of the shop to accommodate all
the units that they sell. Training
is also a very important aspect
of keeping up with the dealer
standards imposed by the manufacturers.
Customers are becoming more dependent on their
dealer for repairs. Large farms
maintain a shop for the routine basic repairs and service.
They can change oil and filters,
wheel bearings, tire repairs and
batteries and air conditioner
service. But when there is a
serious problem that requires
disassembly, it may need to be
taken in to the dealership with
special tools.
There will always be a
need for service technicians.
We are blessed in Oklahoma
with Vo-Tech Schools and any
youth that applies themselves
can gain master technician status. That will be very important
for a career in mechanics.
My memories as a boy
were watching our mechanics
work. I did my share of taking
things apart. Clocks, watches
and old tube radios were favorites. Back in those days we had
to wind up our watch every day
and the clocks every week.
Yes, there is still a place
for older mechanics around the
shop. They are very dependable, always on time to work
and work hard to get it fixed
right. Like Bill Madole, who
is a proven veteran Master Mechanic and knows how to make
it tick! He is still making his

centres on a roll pin that connects each mower disc to the drive shaft
and that shears off as the disc hits an obstacle. All elements in the cutterbar driveline are protected. While the sprocket continues revolving,
the stopped disc jacks up on a thread and out of the operating area of
the blades on the neighbouring discs, thereby eliminating the risk of damaging these as well.

Thought for the Day by
Corbett Mason
Our leaders continue to
lie to the public, Obama told
the American people that we
weren’t being spied on. James
Clapper, the Director of National Intelligence looked Congress in the eye and told them,
his agency wasn’t spying on
the American people. Out
jumps the rabbit by the name
of Edward Snowden to inform
the American people what was
being done to them in the name
of national defense. The Affordable Care Act was passed
under the premise, the masses
would get to keep their insurance and doctor.
The ignorant unwashed
and unlearned swallows these
stories daily, because they
want to believe. Truth resides
somewhere, but you won’t find
it living on Capitol Hill.
The ole Rancher says,
“Lying to a Federal Agency
is a crime if you are a citizen,
lying to the American public
is not, if you are connected to
those in power.”
In the words of Hermman Goering, “Shoot first and
ask questions later, and don’t
worry, no matter what happens, I will protect you.”
Senator Diana Feinstein
didn’t mind the CIA breeching
the privacy of the American
people. But when she found
out they had hacked her staff’s
computers, she was outraged.
No-one on Capitol Hill trusts
each other, it seems to be a full
time occupation for one agency
to spy on another agency. The
American public has been
spied on since the days of Edgar Hoover. They just weren’t
aware of it.
Some time back, the WSJ
reported , “nearly one of every
three American adults are on
file in the FBI’s master criminal database.”
“Make the lie big, make
it simple, keep saying it, and
eventually they will believe it.”

Our leaders are either unable to guide our country back
to its basic freedoms or choose
not to. Since the Federal Reserve has primed the pump, the
rich have gotten richer, while
the average man on the street
has gotten poorer. Our leaders
from both sides of the aisle
promise to make our life better
with the help of their economists, lawyers and thousands
of government employees at
their fingertips.
The Federal Reserve has
17,015 employees, with this
many clerks and economists
you’d think they could balance
the budget and yet things are
still sliding downhill. And the
national debt continues its up-
ward climb. Have no fear, our
leaders say, “they’re going to
make the working family more
secure in a world of constant
change.”
Yet, we are living in the
day of the disappearing middle
class, how strange. With wages
remaining stagnant for the most
part, while
the needed
essentials go
up in price,
except for
gasoline.
Meanwhile
our governCorbett Mason
ment makes
promises they can’t keep without borrowing more money.
Our lawmakers know the only
way to stop the insidious climb
of debt is to raise taxes or cut
government spending, either
move will get them kicked
out of office. The train will
continue running down the
same track until a major crisis
derails it. Americans seem to
stay asleep until a crisis awakens them. Governments never
waste a crisis, it gives them the
ability to put more draconian
controls on the undisciplined
masses, as they cry for help.
For security, most will sell
their souls and abandon all
rights and freedoms given to
them for a promise of being
protected. You can catch any
unruly animal with a bucket of
feed over a period of time. You
pour the feed on the ground
until the animal you want is
waiting for its daily handout.
Then one day you erect a pen
around where you dump the
feed and the trap is set. The
animal goes in to eat his fill and
finds his freedom was taken for
a few morsels of grain.
A culture depending on
handouts instead of labor is
a recipe for ruin. Our leaders
used 9/11 to get the American
people to accept total surveillance over their every move in
the name of national security.
The more upheaval and strife
found amongst the unbridled
masses, the greater the excuse
for more laws to clamp down
on the rights of mankind.
“The urge to save humanity is almost always a false face
for the urge to rule it.” - H.L.
Mencken Meanwhile they tax
and borrow money to watch
us and fund wars around the
world. Political campaigns are
financed, a polite way to say
those running for office are
bought and paid for.
The ole Rancher says, “
Every life and government has
value; if for no other reason
than to set forth a standard of
what makes a bad example.
In all cases the man or nation
asking for money will find his
hand under the hand of the
man or nation furnishing the
money and will strive to keep
them happy.”

US TROOPS VS. ISIS?
Walker, eyes 2016 bid, says
he’s open to idea

Report: Federal Government Issued Nearly
5.5 Million Work Permits to Foreign
Nationals Since 2009
By Ryan Lovelace
The Corner
Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker,
a potential 2016 Republican
presidential candidate, said
Sunday he is open to sending
U.S. troops to the Middle East
to defeat Islamic State fighters -- a bold foreign policy
statement in contrast with the
Obama administration’s position.
GOP candidates, according
to a Bloomberg Politics/ Des
Moines Register Iowa Poll
released this weekend. He has
15 percent of the vote, with
Kentucky GOP Sen. Rand
Paul in second with 14 percent,
following Walker’s rousing
speech last weekend at the Iowa
Freedom Summit.
Walker told ABC’s “This
Week” that he wouldn’t rule
out sending troops, as Islamic
State appears to grow and
strengthen despite U.S.-led
efforts to destroy the radical
Islamic group.
“You can make all of the
speeches you want,” Walker
also told ABC. “But people
want new, fresh leadership.”
He also suggested that he or
perhaps Florida Sen. Marco
Rubio, another potential 2016
Republican presidential candidate, could beat presumptive
Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton because they each
are a “name for the future.”
“I wouldn’t rule out anything,”
Walker said. “When you have
the lives of Americans at stake
... we have to be prepared to do
things that don’t allow those
measures, those attacks, those
abuses to come to our shores.” He suggested the Clinton name

The administration is reluctant
to send troops to the Middle
East to fight the militant group,
considering the move would be
unpopular among Americans,
after recent U.S. wars in Iraq

Walker was in Washington this

campaign aides and donors.
And last week, he announced
the formation of a political nonprofit group ahead of a potential

More than 5.46 million
foreign nationals have received
work permits from the federal
government since 2009, according to a new report from the
Center for Immigration Studies.
Data uncovered from the U.S.
Citizenship and Immigration
Services agency reveal that
approximately 982,000 work
permits were given to illegal
immigrants and other foreign
nationals unqualified for admission, most of whom crossed
the border without inspection.
USCIS is the agency within
the Department of Homeland
Security responsible for issuing
work permits and processing
applications related to President Obama’s executive action
on immigration. On Tuesday,
the Senate is scheduled to vote
on a bill that funds DHS, while
blocking funding that would
allow USCIS to implement the
president’s executive action.
The remarkable number
of work permits granted by
the federal government to lawbreaking aliens better explains
how all net jobs growth since
2007 has gone to immigrants.
The government issued approximately 1.7 million work
permits since 2009 to aliens
whose status was not known,
not recorded, or not disclosed
by USCIS, according to the
report. The report says employment is not authorized by
law for approximately 1.2 million immigrants who collected
work permits while having a
temporary visa status. And the
data show that approximately
1,200 new work permits went
to unlawful entrants who were
denied asylum, were suspected
of using fraudulent documenta-
tion, were stowaways, or were
refused at a port of entry.
Approximately 1.1 million legal immigrants and
700,000 guest workers enter
the country every year along
with the millions of foreign
nationals that have received
work permits from the federal
government, according to a
statement from CIS. “I was
astonished at the huge number of work permits that are
being issued by the Obama
administration outside the legal
immigration system through
executive discretion, especially
at a time of high unemployment and stagnant wages,” said
Jessica Vaughan the director
of policy studies at CIS in a
statement. “Besides the effect
on the American worker, it
encourages and rewards more
illegal immigration.”

The National Enquirer, of all
publications, interviewed me on
my analysis, publishing a feature article that largely echoed
my sentiments and concluded,
“Meanwhile, D.C. insiders say
that the only way the Bergdahl
fiasco will ‘disappear’ is if the
U.S. gets involved in an ongoing
crisis elsewhere, which will allow President Obama to ‘redeem
himself’ in not only the eyes of his
critics but the world.”
While the Obama administration has, no doubt, manufactured
many a crisis elsewhere, no such
redemption has been forthcoming. Neither has the Bergdahl
scandal disappeared. Instead, that
which even hard-left Sen. Diane
Feinstein, D-Calif., feared has,
in a few short months, and quite
predictably so, become reality.

Obama media that at least one of

faithful followers of Muhammad
– intends to kill more American
citizens.

According to a September congressional report, “about 17 percent of detainees transferred out
of Guantanamo Bay are confirmed
by the U.S. to have returned to
militant activity. About 12 percent
are in the suspected category,”
noted CNN.
And so as Barack Obama reck-
lessly sows the seeds of a foolish, politically driven campaign
promise, we begin to reap the
poisonous fruit of his incompetence. As intelligence concludes
that nearly one-third (probably
more) of these rabid jihadi dogs
will return to their rabid jihadi
ways, Obama yet races to loose
them from their chains. (Hey, I

rise of Islamic hegemony and
violence, the infiltration of the
US government by the Muslim
Brotherhood and the promotion
of Sharia law in our schools and
judicial system.
Renaissance literally means
rebirth, a celebration of the
human spirit and mankind’s potential for growth; a return to the
ideals upon which the United
States was founded, that is, a
Constitution based on the Judeo-Christian values of Western
civilization. Concomitantly, we
should remember the sacrifices
endured by our forebearers and
reaffirm our commitment to
preserve our way life as Joseph
Story wrote in his 1833 Commentaries on the Constitution:
“Let the American youth never
forget, that they possess a noble
inheritance, bought by the toils,
and sufferings, and blood of
their ancestors; and capacity,
if wisely improved, and faithfully guarded, of transmitting
to their latest posterity all the
substantial blessings of life, the
peaceful enjoyment of liberty,
property, religion, and independence.”
The framework of an American
Renaissance is a restoration of
the Constitution, in particular, 10th Amendment, which
states:
“The powers not delegated to
the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to
the States, are reserved to the
States respectively, or to the
people.”
It is clear that members of Congress have largely not adhered to
their oath to support and defend
the Constitution. The solution,
however, is not simply trying
to elect more “good” people,
who eventually get coopted or
crushed by the system, but to
create circumstances or incentives that oblige bad people to
do the right thing.
The starting point should be
limiting Congressional terms
to a total of 12 years either in
the House of Representatives
or in the Senate or a combina-
tion thereof and abolishing all
special benefits for members
of Congress and government
officials beyond those available
to ordinary citizens.
Free enterprise is the most efficient system for the production of goods and services ever
devised. Government is not.
Federal taxation and regulations
must be reduced to an absolute
minimum to unleash the creative forces of the free market
to power economic growth and
increase jobs.
Succinctly, we have a hopelessly corrupt political-media

NEW PROGRAM - GIRLS GOLF
IN TULSA
A new program designed
to increase the number of girls
taking up the game will debut in
northeastern Oklahoma this spring.
The LPGA/USGA Girls Golf Club
for Tulsa will begin March 28 at
LaFortune Park, which is serving
as the official host site. LPGA
certified instructor Maggie Roller
will head up the program, which is
being sponsored by the Women’s
Oklahoma Golf Association and
by Pat McCrate, who operates the
Tulsa County-owned golf courses
at LaFortune Park and South Lakes.
Roller, a former University of Tulsa
golfer who has extensive teaching
experience at South Lakes and
other venues, said the program is
for beginning female players ages
6 to 16. It will have 10 clinics in
2015, one the fourth Saturday of
every month beginning in March.
Cost to enroll in the program is $16
with each clinic one attends an additional $10. The girls will get the
opportunity to meet and get tips from
former LPGA golfers such as Stacy
Prammansudh, University of Tulsa
coach Emilee Klein-Gill and First
Tee of Tulsa director Janice Gibson. USGA committeewoman Lew
Erickson will introduce the girls to
the rules of golf. Many other local
golf personalities will assist as well.

it is the person hitting the ball (or
swinging the club) that has more
to do with the result…… than the
club.
Consider this: $200 to $400

This is too simple.
For more club head speed

your knees are flexed the more you

GOLF JOKE of the WEEK
From Jim Simmons:
“For better digestion, I drink
beer. In the case of appetite loss, I
drink white wine, In the case of low
blood pressure, I drink red wine, In
the case of high blood pressure, I
drink scotch, And when I have a
cold, I drink schnapps.” “When do
you drink water?” “I’ve never been
that sick.”
From Jim Darby
WALKING ON THE GRASS
The room was full of pregnant
women with their husbands.
The instructor said, “Ladies,
remember that exercise is good
for you. Walking is especially
beneficial. It strengthens the pelvic
muscles and will make delivery that
much easier.
Just pace yourself, make plenty of stops and try to stay on a soft
surface like grass or a path.”
“Gentlemen, remember -you’re in this together. It wouldn’t
hurt you to go walking with her. In
fact, that shared experience would
be good for you both.”
The room suddenly became
very quiet as the men absorbed this
information.
After a few moments a man,
name unknown, at the back of the
room, slowly raised his hand.
“Yes?” said the Instructor.
“I was just wondering if it
would be all right if she carries a
golf bag while we walk?”
Brings a tear to your eye,
doesn’t it? This kind of sensitivity
just can’t be taught.
KEEP IT IN THE MIDDLE!

Republicanism, from pg. 8_______________________________________
claim to be heirs of Reagan and, thus, Goldwater
while really being heirs of
Nelson Rockefeller. Unfortunately for the GOP,
as it has grown more and
more prone to government
intervention and continues
to grow the size and scope
of the federal government,
its base has thought it was
electing leaders who actually believed the Republican Platform. With the
growth of talk radio and
the internet, it is harder
and harder to keep the base
ignorant of its leadership’s
machinations.
In my twenty years actively in Republican politics, I
have never seen the murmuring discontent of the
base as loud as it is now.
Certainly it goes through
phases and, historically,
this is most akin to the
situation in the mid-70’s
for the Republican Party
as conservatives were ascending again after the
Goldwater collapse and
Nixon reemergence. Currently, the general sense
of grievance and betrayal
is as great or greater than
at that time.
More troubling, a number
of the voices of the GOP
who stood with Reagan
have turned to be table
scrap moocher of the resurgent Rockefeller wing that
the Establishment has become. They use the means
of government to prop up
interests who benefit them
politically as opposed to
disentangling government
from business and allowing individuals and small
businesses the liberty of
self-governance free from
interference. Then they
hide behind their former
proximity to Reagan as
a shield to their current
complacency, corruption,
and condescension toward
the values Reagan extolled ber with more and more
and the base supports.
legitimate grievances.
But this does not have to
be the case. The era of big
government returned with
Barack Obama. The people clearly forgot why it
was so bad. They have now
tasted again that which
prior generations rejected
and they too are rejecting
it. They are rejecting crony
capitalism, though there is
a danger they reject capitalism altogether because
of it. They have rejected
big government and there
is a growing, palpable
sense that they may reject
government altogether for
anarchy or complacency.
They have rejected government intervention, but
they may reject intervention even to protect us
from our enemies.
Only Republicans can
paint a vision away from
what the nation is rejecting, but also away from
larger and more calamitous rejections. But only
Republicans not entangled
in Washington can do that.
The base of the party,
which remains more conservative than the funders,
bundlers, and leaders of
the party, will have a say
in the new Presidential
nominee.

What will be the balance
between Main Street and
Wall Street. If they can
sell the base, coming in
with all their preconceived
notions on the candidates
and various concerns, they
will go a long way toward
solidifying the party.

ers into the administration
of our national government;
and to declare expressly that
the commander-in-chief of
the American army shall not
be given to, nor devolve on,
any but a natural born citizen
(italics added).”
On March 12, 1788, in
Federalist Paper No. 68, Alexander Hamilton expressed
the widely held fear of foreign influence on the president of the United States.
He wrote, “Nothing was
more to be desired than that
every practicable obstacle
should be opposed to cabal,
intrigue, and corruption.
These most deadly adversaries of republican government
might naturally have been
expected to make their approaches from more than one
quarter, but chiefly from the
desire in foreign powers to
gain an improper ascendant
in our councils. How could
they better gratify this than
by raising a creature of their
own to the chief magistracy
(presidency) of the Union?
It should be noted
that the Framers did not require the president and vice
president to be devoid of all
friends and acquaintances in
foreign lands; they did not
choose to limit the presidency and the vice presidency
only to those without living
relatives in foreign lands; nor
did they limit the presidency
and the vice presidency only
to those without material
offshore assets. But they
did produce language in
Article II, Section 1 of the
Constitution requiring that
all candidates for president
and vice president must be
“natural BORN.”
Accordingly, the final
product of the Constitutional Convention contained
the following language, unchanged and unchallenged in
the past 227 years. Article
II, Section 1, Clause 5 of
the Constitution reads as
follows: “No Person except
a natural born Citizen, or a
Citizen of the United States,
at the time of the Adoption
of this Constitution, shall
be eligible to the Office of
President; neither shall any
Person be eligible to that
Office who shall not have
attained to the Age of thirtyfive Years, and been fourteen
Years a Resident within the
United States.”
As the Constitution
was being drafted, southern
Democrats demanded, as a
means of increasing their
representation in the U.S.
Congress, a provision that
allowed each slave to be
counted as three-fifths of a
person. However, nearly a
century later, the states ratified the 14th Amendment, a
Republican-sponsored proposal granting full citizenship to all persons born on
U.S. soil.
While the amendment
was designed to give full
citizenship to emancipated
slaves, the authors could
not have foreseen an age in
which international travel
would be so commonplace
that expectant foreign wom-
en could travel to the U.S.
just to have their babies born
on U.S. soil, creating a class
of citizens known as “anchor
babies.” Had they been able
to predict the future, they
would likely have limited
the amendment to full time
legal residents of the United
States, almost all of whom
were emancipated slaves.
The 14th Amendment
does not confer, nor was it
ever intended to confer, “natural born” status on children
of emancipated slaves or
on today’s “anchor babies”
because, like our first seven
presidents… Washington, J.
Adams, Jefferson, Madison,
Monroe, J.Q. Adams, and
Jackson… none of whom
were “natural born” citizens,
those infants were born to
parents who were not U.S.
citizens at the time of their
birth. And while none of
our first seven presidents
were natural born, all were
“citizens” on the day the
Constitution was ratified and
were “grandfathered” under
the phrase, “…or a Citizen
of the United States, at the
time of the Adoption of this
Constitution.”
Most Obama apologists, while insisting that
Obama is a “natural born”
citizen, even though he was
born to an American mother
and a Kenyan father, will
agree that Arnold Schwarzenegger, for example, is
not a “natural born” citizen because he was born in
Austria to Austrian parents
and became a “naturalized”
citizen after emigrating to
the U.S.
When an alien seeks to
become a naturalized citizen,
he/she must demonstrate
that they have been of good
moral character for the statutory period prior to filing for
naturalization. Then, upon
being found suitable for U.S.
citizenship, applicants must
swear the following oath:
“I hereby declare, on
oath, that I absolutely and
entirely renounce and abjure
all allegiance and fidelity to
any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty,
of whom or which I have
heretofore been a subject or
citizen; that I will support
and defend the Constitution
and laws of the United States
of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic;
that I will bear true faith and
allegiance to the same; that
I will bear arms on behalf
of the United States when
required by the law; that I
will perform noncombatant
service in the Armed Forces
of the United States when required by the law; that I will
perform work of national
importance under civilian
direction when required by
the law; and that I take this
obligation freely, without
any mental reservation or
purpose of evasion; so help
me God.”
As a “citizen of Kenya
by birth,” under terms of
the August 4, 2010 Kenyan
constitution, Barack Obama
has failed to renounce his
Kenyan citizenship and is
required to obey the laws of
Kenya whenever he happens
to visit that country. Therefore, he has not “absolutely
and entirely renounced and
abjured all allegiance and
fidelity to any foreign prince,
potentate, state, or sovereignty…” Nor has he shown
himself to be a man of good
moral character.
Any investigation into
who is natural born and who
is not, must have as its starting point, a realization that
there are only two jobs in the
entire United States, public
sector or private sector, that
require the incumbents to
be “natural born” citizens.
Those who are naturalized
citizens or regular citizens
can serve in state and local
office, in state courts, in the
U.S. Congress, and in the
federal courts. They are even
eligible to serve on the U.S.
Supreme Court, but they
may not serve as president or
vice president of the United
States.
The Framers obviously intended the qualifications
for president and vice president to be far and above the
qualifications for any other
office in the land. As such,
those who insist that the
terms “citizen” and “natural
born citizen” are synonymous have an obligation to
explain to the rest of us
exactly what they see as the
exclusivity factor that make
eligibility requirements for
president and vice president
different from those of all
other offices.
The acid test for those
who claim natural born citizenship involves two factors, and two factors alone.
The first is “place” and the
other is “parentage.” Individuals born in a foreign
land, to alien parents, can
become “naturalized,” but
never “natural born” citizens; “anchor babies” born
to one or more non-citizen
parents on U.S. soil can be
“citizens,” but never “natural born” citizens; and those
born anywhere on Earth
to one American citizen
and one who is not, can be
American “citizens” with
dual nationality, but never
“natural born” citizens.
In January 2009 and
again in January 2013, it was
the obligation of congressional Republicans to question
Barack Obama’s eligibility
when they met in joint session to certify the votes of
the Electoral College, but
they lacked the courage to
do so. Nor did they have the
courage or the political will
to hold public hearings on
the question. Now they have
the opportunity to shine the
light of day on the question
of Obama’s ineligibility by
openly questioning the eligibility of three Republicans.
Such hearings will show that,
in terms of eligibility for the
highest office in the land,
Barack Obama, Ted Cruz,
Bobby Jindal, and Marco
Rubio are all “birds of a
feather.”
Treason, from pg. 7
I wish it could be said that
this man is simply an incompetent fool, but I fear it’s
much more complicated than
all that. At best, Barack Hussein Obama is a full-blown
dhimmi (one who surrenders
to Muslim dominance). At
worst, he shares with Muslims the sworn enemies of
both the Quran and “progressivism,” namely Israel and
Christianity.
