Joe May Publisher Forgetting the enemy? As of this writing on Wednesday afternoon, i have yet to watch any of the republican Ị ational Convention Coverage. And i don’t plan on it, either. the last convention coverage i recall watching was in 1988. i cheered on Pat Buchanan and watched reagan give one of his last speeches. if i have watched any since, i don’t honestly recall. in reading over the coverage of both conventions, though, it’s interesting to see what’s going on in between the political posturing. At the rỊ C, there’s Christian leaders praying, since the core of the GoP is conservative Christians. But over at the democratic Ị ational Convention, set to take place shortly, word is that it won’t be Christians taking center stage. (tell me that you’re actually surprised by that.) if reports are to be believed, it appears that Barack obama’s tent is going to be full of Muslims. the dỊ C plans to participate in a twohour prayer session with thos of the islamic faith. i may be mistaken, but aren’t we at war because of the actions of a certain Muslim sect? Used to be what the dỊ C is doing would be called fraternizing with the enemy. But those were the days. Ị ow, we just call it “let’s say anything and pander to anyone to get elected so we can continue to destroy America.” Preparing for the fair Joe May photo Wednesday found Pike County Sheriff Preston “Pep” Glenn and a crew of prisoners at the Pike County Fairgrounds in Glenwood getting the grounds ready for the fair, which will be September 18-22. the workers were focused on building new turkey cages and cleaning out and repairing other animal pens.

Suspect Kenny ray Yarbrough, 36, of 473 rock Creek road in Glenwood was interviewed by Johns at the Amity Police department. He told the officer that he was at a Kirksey road residence Robbery, assault nets 90-year term By Joe May Editor A man who robbed United Auto Salvage in 2010 and assaulted owner danny Buck was sentenced to 90 years in prison last week. According to a press release from Clark County Prosecuting Attorney Black Batson, a local jury sentenced richard Jackson, 49, of Prescott, to 90 years in prison for robbery, kidnapping and two counts of theft of property in the June of 2010 robbery of the Hollywood business. the jury also imposed a $12,000 fine. in the case, Buck reported having been robbed of his wallet and cell phone by two black males who then hit him over the head and fled the scene. Buck was able to flag down a passing motorist and give chance. the suspects were able to outrun him and at one time were spotted by police in the Amity area. After a jury was selected thursday morning Jackson requested to change his plea to guilty to the charges. “We met with the victims and made a decision to allow him to change his plea and go to the jury for sentencing,” Batson noted. “richard Jackson was an accomplice in this case and was not armed. He ultimately cooperated by giving a statement as to his involvement and the identity of his co-conspirator." “the defendant pled guilty to the crimes he committed and justice was served by the “Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.” col. 3:17 iNSide devotional Corner...Page 8 Editorials...Page 4-5 Mini Page....Page 7 obituaries...Page 2 Police Blotter...Page 3 august 30, 2012 Man arrested after beating young child at knifepoint sentence of the jury,” the prosecutor continued. “this was great work by the Clark County Sheriff's department. this was essentially a cold case. there were no suspects. Sheriff [Jason] Watson and i met on this case right after he came into office. He and his guys were working hard to solve it. Without those efforts and the efforts of the initial investigator Jim Pennington and later investigator Brian daniel, this case would still be unsolved. All the officers that worked this case deserve our praise. this is a very strong message by our citizens who are so willing to serve on juries. this type of conduct will be punished severely." when a young child allegedly began cursing him and his children. He stated that he responded by pulling his belt and giving the child a “spat” on her rear one time.

Kendrick Barton pleaded guilty in 2007 in Ị evada County Juvenile Court to first-degree murder and was sentenced to the custody of the department of Human Services' Youth Services division. in 2009, Circuit Judge duncan Culpepper found that the 21-year-old had not been rehabilitated and sentenced him to twenty years in adult prison, with an additional 20 suspended. Since that time, Barton has been punished three times for violating prison rules, with the most recent offense taking place on August 15 when he was found to be in possession of a homemade knife. He was sent to punitive isolation for 30 days and had his phone, commissary and visitation privileges revoked for sixty days. in 2011, citing the nature of the offense, the parole board denied Barton's first bid for parole. He could still be granted parole this year, though officials have said that due to his disobedience, they will not act on his request until at least sixty days after he is released from isolation. point cedar News A newspaper article stated hot, dry weather heightened the West Ị ile virus resk. the state epidermiolgist in oklahoma fears that the state is facing one of the most severe seasons since it arrived in 2002. there were eight confirmed cases of West Ị ile infection, with seven being the serious, neuro-invasive form of the disase. this virus is a cyclical disease in humans, apeparing in the summer and disappearing in the winter as carrier mosquitoes die off and hibernate. Most people won’t get sick, but approximately one in 150 infected will develop the severe form of the illness. Symptoms include headache, high fever, neck stiffness, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness and paralysis. Wear insect repellent containing dEEt, picaridin or oil of lemon eycalptus, avoid being outdoors between dusk and dark when mosquitos are biting. drain standing water to eliminate breeding habits. Culex mosquitos are secretive, approaching quickly from behind. recently, i was bitten just after a rain by what i assume was an ordinary pest, so i’ve given up most yard chores since i’m slightly allergic to bites and they take days to get well. there are now many organizations formed by certain groups following a war. the American Legion was founded in Paris, France in March 1919 as an organization of US war veterans by delegates from combat and service unites of the American Expeditionary Force assembled in response to a call by a committee headed by Lt. Col. theodore roosevelt, Jr. A national charter was granted by Congrress in September 1919, amended in 1942 to admit WWii veterans, in 1950 after the Korean War, and again in 1966 to admit veterans of the Vietnam War. A major concern is the care of sick and disabled veterans as well as youth programs and other worthy charities. in 1948, the Soviet Union closed the rails and roads leading from West Germany into the City of Berlin in an attempt to take over Berlin from the American, British and French forces. Allied military cargo planes saved 2.5 million West Berliners from starvation. the airlift officially began in June 1948 and even though the russians lifted the blockade in May 1949, allied supply efforts continued September 30, 1949, almost 64 years ago. the US NoRMa BLaNToN alone delivered 1,789,571 tons of materials, tons of coal and othe miscellaneous goods.

Board of directors of Centerpoint School district Ị o. 43 of Pike County, Arkansas By Kirk Pittman, Secretary Page 4 the Standard August 30, 2012 Daniel Gardner e D I to r I A L s Burning the Curley Wolf ok. We at Gurdon are hosting the Junior High School Gurdon/Prescott football game at 7 p.m. on thursday, Aug. 30. After the young Go-devils take care of business (yea i know, i work in Prescott too but i live in Gurdon), then the older players get a shot on Friday night to see what they are made of. rather than to predict an outcome of that game, i figure time will tell. it starts here at Gurdon around 7:30 p.m. if you want a seat, come early. But let's back up a minute, the burning of the Curley Wolf should take place around 9 p.m. after the Junior High School game on thursday night. Again, i will not say one way or another how i feel about this burning of the Curley Wolf. i will not admit that Gurdon has been my home for eight years and i want our Go-devils to show their stuff to victory on both of these games. Ị ope. i will not admit that truth at all... So let me tell you about the Burning of the Curley Wolves, a tradition i have not missed since 2004. the bonfire usually gets started about 9 p.m., just after the Junior Go-devils finish their attempt at smashing the Junior Curley Wolves. of course, if our younger players win, the ceremony is a lot more jubilant. if we lose, it still serves to build up the senior squad for the rivalry challenge of the next night. i remember the first time i ever saw them bring in a coffin to burn. it is usually some sort of wooden box that looks like an old western movie coffin, but cheerleaders and football players alike dance in circles while the coffin arrives. then the thing goes up in flames and the spirit of victory for Gurdon mounts up! We in Gurdon realize the odds are against us when it comes to beating the bigger Prescott team. But since the rivalry game is at the start of the year, and our star players are fresh and not beat up from hard playing, Gurdon wins about half of these games. At least that is my recollection for the eight years i have been here. i believe the wins come because of enthusiasm, determination and sheer under dog pride! oK, i admit John Nelson Columnist it. i am a Go-devil fan. And i do like a lot of Prescott folk that i work with these days. But somewhere along the line, the under dogs of Gurdon stole my heart. i wish you good luck fellows. Go get me a Go-devil First down and a Gurdon victory!!! We are healthy so being deep like a big town just might not be necessary. Again, i think it is anybody's guess who will win this one. But whoever wins, i will still be proud of all the players on both sides for their spirits of competition and good sportsmanship. iỊ otHEr Ị EWS i have been enjoying the cooler weather. My old car has been having brake system problems and i may be paying for the repairs a while, yet old Betzie, as i so lovingly call my old 1995 Ford taurus, should be good to go by Monday night and therefore make some time around the local football fields for the next 10 to 12 weekends. By the time i go to my 40th high school reunion, some five years from now in 2017, i plan to have healthy looking teeth, a stomach that is 40 pounds smaller and generally be in much better shape. My daughter Kelley is a personal trainer at a gym so maybe i will seek some advise from her. My folks both lived to be in their 90's so i am planning a good, long, healthy life. And i hope to go to many more Gurdon and Prescott football games. Sure, i will root for Gurdon, but if the good people of Prescott win a few along the way, that will be oK too. the big deal is to keep the enthusiasm and competition going! So here we go folks; football season 2012. i will be on the sidelines shooting photos and dancing out of the way of our players! i hope to see you there and may the best teams win!!! in the meantime, this is Just John. still hanging out at Gurdon.

Labor Day 2012 The drought ruins a few plantings-but not all the first cooler days of August last week—and the rain, plus a dose of nutrients––prompted a rejuvenation in part of the flora that surrounds Couchwood Manor. Showing WHitE were abelia blooms, an airplane plant blossom and, against maroon foliage, shamrock flowers. different shades and hues of PiỊ K turned up in a few Encore azalea blossoms, the long-blooming crape myrtle, oxalis, and Mom’s old hanging begonia. BLUE wandering jew, monkey-grass PUrPLE blooms and beautyberries, FUCHiA dianthus, YELLoW lantana and lance-leaf coreopsis completed the rainbow of colors. Wait! i forgot the various colors of the rose moss/moss rose/portulaca. Also a community of white tent-capped toadstools sprang up in the lower south yard. Ị ot everything in this hilltop acre survived the drought. it was easy to water the front and porch plants, but not so much the back where cannas are still green but have not bloomed. oxalis and monkey grass planted around the yellow ash stump pretty well went dormant/brown or the foliage disappeared, leaving bulbs stacked like miniature minarets. For the second year run- Shades of Home by Pat Laster ning, two property-edged plants on the west died of thirst. only one branch of a variegated privet survived. the neatnik neighbors will like that: they can encroach farther into my yard with their mower. Suits me: less for me to mow. Grandmother’s rock garden/our pet cemetery under a three-tree sassafras grove, is way out of reach of a hose. Earlier, optimistically, i planted lamb’s ear, a coreopsis, oxalis and tansy to the already- growing, single stalk of pink chrysanthemum and an ancient stand of day lilies. i carried water from the rain barrel (a number ten washtub) at the northwest corner of the house. Eventually, with no rain, i also let that bed go. only the lilies and the mum stalk still show green. And a community of wild asters. All the leaves of the volunteer dogwood sapling are half ECrU. (Ecru—now there’s another color to add to the ones above!) the pear tree is so loaded that on one branch each pear touches another all the way down (or up; i took a picture for proof. this tree does its thing without benefit of pruning—except what nature does––or spraying. one fel- Poet’s Corner iSRaeL & THe uS oF a Should the United States ever forsake israel, it will be “the handwritign on the wall.” “Me’ne, Me’ne, te’kel, Up’phar’sin,” daniel 5:2528. “Me’ne: God has numbered your kingdome and finished it.” “te’kel: thou has been weighed in the balance and found wanint.” low stopped by earlier in the month to see if i were going to “do anything” with the pears. if not, could he have them for preserves. i assured him i was. “You can have what’s already fallen,” i said, but he didn’t take me up on that.

Which may happen after i finish the kitchen painting project. the late summer colors are the same as those in spring. the next two months will bring the oranges of pumpkins, striking pots of bronze ‘mums, the multicolors of oak and maple and tulip poplar leaves.

A week before the 1980 election at the end of the last debate ronald reagan asked voters, “Ị ext tuesday all of you will go to the polls, will stand there in the polling place and make a decision. i think when you make that decision, it might be well if you would ask yourself, are you better off than you were four years ago? is it easier for you to go and buy things in the stores than it was four years ago? is there more or less unemployment in the country than there was four years ago?” Since 1980, both sides of the political divide have parroted these questions with their own carefully crafted (dare i say biased) answers, to such an extent voters get easily confused comparing numbers of apples with numbers of oranges. Hopefully we can all agree with James Carville’s perennially pertinent characterization of the driving issue in most elections: “it’s the economy, stupid!” of course this year’s election is all about the economy, but who is this “stupid” James refers to? Voters? We’re not stupid! How has the middle class fared since 2000? According to Sentier research, a nonpartisan economic consulting firm, based on census data real median household income was $55,470 in 2000 before the market crash. Let’s use that as a baseline. How did we fare under George W? At the end of Mr. Bush’s second term that figure was $54,983, so the American middle-class family lost $487 under President Bush’s two terms in office. Ị ot so good. How have we done under Mr. obama’s economic policies? Sentier calculated the real median household income, adjusted for inflation, was $50,964 in June of this year. in three-and-a-half years under Mr. obama’s policies, middle-income families have lost more than $4,000! Some among us have suffered more than others under Mr. obama. real incomes of black Americans have fallen by more than 11 percent. top off these losses with inflation of grocery prices, gas prices, and heath care costs and it’s easy to see why 63 percent of us (according to rasmussen’s latest survey) believe America is on the wrong track. the next two weeks we’ll hear promises from Mr. romney and from Mr. obama, both of whom i expect to make convincing cases to voters. Mr. romney will say we need to grow the economy to create jobs and raise more revenue to deal with our runaway deficits/debt. Mr. obama will say we need to raise taxes on corporations and the very rich among us to offset runaway deficits/debt and to invest in public sector jobs. Mr. romney represents the business side of the economy and Mr. obama represents the government side of the economy. Voters will have to decide whether a centralized federal government can make our economy better, get more businesses to hire more workers, and lower prices of the things we buy most; or whether businesses are key to economic growth, hiring, and competing with other businesses to lower prices of the things we buy most. Voters aren’t “stupid.” We need to vote for the candidate who will put America back on the right track.

His next-door neighbors had Brucellosis problems and since Jerry shared a common fence, he too, was required to be tested. the neighbors sold out and let the land set the requisite time. Meanwhile Jerry brought in 20 half-Gertrudis heifers to his place. He evaluated them and concluded 2 out of 3 had no brain. the government showed up to test them. they insisted on using their clanging banging government-issue head catch, instead of what the cattle were used to. thus a riot ensued in which all twenty crashed through 4 fences and 3 farms and crossed the Flint river. two of the half-breeds were never found! Six months went by. the neighbor restocked with red Angus cows and a bull. Jerry continued to cruise the county in his spare time searching for his prodigal heifers and, sure enuf, one afternoon he saw one amidst the neighboring red Angus! She must have found her way back and blended right in. Jerry called his neighbors, two older brothers who ran a tight ship and were proud of their operation. He explained about locating his heifer and asked if he could saddle up and cut her out. “Ị ope,” said the brothers, “Ị o, horses. don’t want no horses stirrin’ up our cattle.” “How ‘bout a tranquilizer dart gun?” asked Jerry. “okay, but don’t you be trompin’ around our pasture chasin’ dem cattle. You can shoot from a fence and we’ll carry her over in a bucket loader.” Jerry went to his local vet who outfitted him with a tranquilizer gun. He loaded the dart and gave Jerry the .22 caliber blank cartridge, and verbal instructions. the blank pushes the dart out of the barrel and a plunger injects the tranquilizer upon impact. For the next three weeks he did “drive-bys” morning and night in search of a clean shot at the heifer. He carried the weapon in his truck. one evening after teaching his 6th grade class, he drove ANTIQUES AND COLLECTIBLES ANTIQUE AUCTION FRI., AUG. 31ST - 6:00 P.M.

He pulled off the road, slipped on his coveralls, cradled the rifle in his arms and, army-style, did a low crawl like a sniper through the swamp grass and mud. reaching the fence he observed, once again, how well the brothers built their fences; galvanized woven panels with a strand of barb wire both top and bottom. He never figured they would have put a hot wire on the inside. that was overkill. retaining his prone position, he stealthily pushed the barrel of his tranquilizer gun through the fence. Well, he was wrong about them seeing no need to add hot wire. Being well-grounded he made contact; gun barrel to hot wire. A jolt shot through his body so hard his porch light came on! Even with his soles on fire and his body buzzing like chain saw, he was determined. He slithered in the mud, limped and took his best shot. Unfortunately, the wadding in the blank had been exposed to the humid air so long, when he pulled the trigger, it puffed, popped out about 8 feet and nosed-dived into a hubcap sized cow-pie. the dart poofed daintily and injected 2cc of rompun intrapoopily. “that’s how we do it in tennessee,” he said. read the Standard For up-to-date And Accurate News!

Her writing Thanhha grew up in Vietnam. As in the book, her father was missing in action during the Vietnam War. Her mother had to support the family by herself during those scary times. In real life, Thanhha has six brothers and two sisters. The character in the book has three brothers and no sisters. Thanhha’s family fled to America at the end of the Vietnam War. She had to learn English and a new culture. jacket art © 2011 by Zdenko Basic and Manuel Sumberac, published by HarperCollinsPublishers In “Inside Out & Back Again,” a 10-year-old Vietnamese girl must flee to America at the end of the Vietnam War in 1975. Then she and her family must learn to live in a new world, Alabama. Thanhha worked as a journalist for about 18 months. She said working under deadlines at the newspaper helped her perfect her English skills. She quit her job at the paper and worked raising money to protect the environment, waited tables and edited business people’s writing. But her real job was writing her own book. “Inside Out & Back Again” is her first book for kids. She is now writing her second. photo by Sloane Bosniak, courtesy HarperCollins Vietnam Thanhha Lai, her husband, Henri Omer, and their 6-year-old daughter live in New York City. Thanhha, 47, says, “I read everything.” Advice to kids “Read what you like, not because it’s popular. Read it because you feel something. It’s from feeling something that you’re going to produce your own work. “If you read, it will sink in deep. You can’t get this from playing video games or seeing movies.” Writing background Thanhha had to struggle to learn English. As do many immigrants, she said, she felt dumb for the first two years in America. She said she thought, “If I’m going to have to learn this, I’m going to learn it really well.” So she studied the dictionary. She has always loved to read. And, she said, “Because I went to so much trouble to learn the dictionary, I thought I should do something with the words.” She earned college degrees in English and creative writing.

Has the term conflict of interest ever entered your mind??? if there were a fair bidding process, then the term “conflict of interest” wouldn’t even be a concern, but it all seems unfair and corrupt in my book. “All of us have enjoyed reducing our business and home owner’s insurance cost insurance costs…..” Mr. Wallace, the city did that without the tax increase. Mr. Wallace, the city police, specifically, has not responded to why crime has spiraled out of control over the last decade in Glenwood. the Chief, randy reid, doesn’t want us to know what the actual crime stats are because then we would know what a failure he has been as our chief. “Put their names (naysayers/those who voted against the tax) down in bold letter, laminated it, and be sure to thank the naysayers and gripers when the above happens. Scotch tape it to your refrigerators.” that, Mr. Wallace, sounds a bit like those who voted against the sales tax should be in the scope of someone’s hunting rifle to me. there were just over one hundred citizens who voted against the sales tax. do you have room on your refrigerator for all those names? i suggest you make some room because i’m encouraging them to call you with their names so you can act accordingly. You took my money as well as others who put ads which support you and the newspapers staff’s payroll for the ads against the new sales tax. does that not come across as a little hypocritical??? Mr. Wallace, even with your paper as the spokesperson of Glenwood’s city government you lost. Ị ext time you guys (you, the mayor, and the council) ask for money you need to have a better plan than the last one. i will see you at the council meetings. Sincerely, Buddy Green turnip Green Hill tea Party Coalition Glenwood photo by Kevin Estrada dear Editor, An open letter to Mr. Mike Wallace. recently someone pointed out to me comments you made about the people who voted against the sales tax after the election. Whatever happened to freedom of speech and freedom to vote for what you believed in? So i went back and read your editorial for thursday, July 19, 2012. i will quote a few of your comments then respond to them. “When Mayor ron Martin and the four councilmembers asked for help from those in the opposition’s corner and where those cuts should be made – all they received was silence.” You are a storyteller like our mayor. obviously, you were at the council meeting, but only in body, not mind. there were numerous suggestions from citizens for ideas to save the taxpayer from more taxes. in my opinion the council, mayor, and yourself could give a hoot about what the citizens in Glenwood want but rather only care about what benefits you. the term, “i don’t have a dog in this hunt” was used by one of my Sergeants Major, when describing what battles should be fought and which should not. Well……Mr. Wallace, i personally don’t have a dog in this hunt (i don’t profit from the citizens of Glenwood), but i do care about what’s right or wrong and fair when it comes to Glenwood. it is clear that you (through advertisers), some city council members, the mayor, and anyone on the payroll do have a dog in the hunt. in this town the mayor can spend up to $20,000 dollars wherever he wants at a time without a bid process. How can the city save money with that? How many hundred dollar hammers would that buy? recently a female person who is part of a local hardware/lumber/plumbing business suggested that if i hated Glenwood so much i should consider moving. it’s not that i hate Glenwood it’s that i don’t care for some aspects of Glenwood’s city govern- the Standard, August 30, 2012 Page 7 I]ZB^c^EV\Z 7dd`d[HiViZh The Mini Page’s popular series of issues about each state is collected here in a 156-page softcover book.

Broadway in Glenwood Medicines for this Heart Condition Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HC) is an inherited condition characterized by an abnormally enlarged and thickened heart, which compromises the heart’s capacity to pump blood normally. In HC, the left ventricle of the heart becomes enlarged. Shortness of breath, chest pain, dizziness, and fainting during exercise may be symptoms of the condition. However, many persons affected by the condition may not experience any symptoms. The condition carries an increased risk of arrhythmias, and rarely, sudden cardiac death. Persons with HC should remain aware of their hydration status, and take measures to ensure adequate fluid intake to prevent dehydration. Additionally, high-intensity physical activity should typically be avoided, and a physician should be consulted to determine appropriate physical activity for individuals with the condition. Beta-blocker medications, such as atenolol (Tenormin) and metoprolol (Toprol XL), work to decrease the heart’s demand for oxygen, thereby alleviating chest pain. Verapamil (Calan, Verelan) is a calcium channel blocker that works to slow the heart rate and relax blood vessels, and also decreases chest pain symptoms. Disopyramide (Norpace ) is an antiarrhythmic medication that works to slow the heartbeat, and may be prescribed with a beta-blocker. way to approach it, and his dad advised, “Make sure that what ever draw you select to go up has good water coming down. Several springs will still be active and you surely don't want to be up there without water. Ị ow boys, when you come to a good clear spring, drink plenty of water up close to where it's coming out. Make sure that something else that can bite you isn't there already. don't eat your provisions on the way up, wait 'till you get on top. if you don't dilly-dally around, your breakfast will get you there.” Johnny Harding was a wise man. He had been up there many times hauling down rich heart pine for his gigging boat's fire jack and he knew it wasn't an easy hike we were undertaking. i don't think he was worried about his boys too much as he was about me. But being the kindly gentleman that he was, he was willing to go along with it just on my account. A wasted day in one respect, but a benevolent act in another. the next morning 'way before daybreak, Charles got us up and Mrs. Harding and Bernice (their sister) had a big breakfast all cooked up and we were encouraged to eat plenty because we were going to need it. the left over biscuits were made into egg and sausage sandwiches and each of us were fit up with a book satchel to carry them in. Charles came up with a not yet worn out pair of tennis shoes that Johnny ray had outgrown. “You can't go up there bare foot. it's rough and dangerous,” he said.

God’s kingdom has to come first, every time, every day (Matthew 6:32-34), for discipleship is a daily total renunciation (Luke 9:23). religion is not an accessory, but the main thing and, from an eternal perspective, God’s true religion is the only thing. With the Way of Faith, there is no negotiation, no compromise (Galatians 2:5). Everybody knows that religion is not a proper topic of discussion anywhere, any time. You have your religion, i have mine, and any attempt at persuasion or comparison is unwelcome. Except that Christ did not send his people into the world to make friends and influence people. He sent us to proclaim the message of eternal salvation, to speak truth to a world in the power of the father of lies, to change lives by portraying Christ crucified. We do not move the ancient landmarks to please people, but we seek to move people toward the true and living God. to do that, we preach the message, “whether it is convenient or not” (2 timothy 4:1-3 Ị Et). or as Marshall Keeble said, “When they like, and when they don’t.” Most of what people think they know about religion is wrong.

District 26 Supreme Court Justices should never play politics with the Constitution! if this indeed was his motivating decision, then he should be censured and removed from office as any other political figure should be. Justice roberts’ statement that “it is not our (the Supreme Court’s) job to protect the people from the consequences of their political choices” is shocking to say the least. this is exactly the job of the Supreme Court! our Constitution protects individuals from a tyrannical majority. Political choices of the majority can never violate the God-given rights of even one person. the Constitution was written to protect this principle. Ị ow he tells us that it is not the Court’s job to protect the people from the political choices of the majority. Anyone that attempts to justify Justice roberts’ opinion by claiming that it was a brilliant political move has completely missed the point of our entire system of government. our Constitution is the only thing that can prevent our government from falling into absolute despotism. in order for it to function, the must be Constitution enforced by a Supreme Court that does not bend to political whims. Constitutional limits on authority must be absolute, or they are not limitations at all. Chief Justice roberts sacrificed the Constitution to political considerations. this is unforgivable. it’s bad enough when politicians think like politicians with no consideration of right or wrong. if the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court thinks like a politician, then all is lost. i thank God that Justices thomas, Scalia, Kennedy, and Alito wrote a scathing dissent. they summarized the roberts’ opinion very well: “the fragmentation of power produced by the structure of our Government is central to liberty, and when we destroy it, we place liberty at peril. today’s decision should have vindicated, should have taught, this truth; instead, our judgment today has disregarded it.” this Supreme Court opinion has now approved unlimited government upon the American people. As i’ve said time and time again to my constituents: “the more government you get, the less liberty you have.” it will now be up to the electorate to decide if Lady Liberty lives or dies. Will we choose Capitalism or Socialism? Federalism or despotism? Madison or Marx?
