Obama: October 9th, 2009, a premature not-quite-nine months into his first term. That's all I have to say about the spirit behind the Nobel "Peace" Prize.

Yeah, that was just ridiculous. It actually meant something back in TR's day though.

I can't imagine trying to negotiate by telegram... doing so by texting is bad enough!

I truly admire Theordore Roosevelt. Thank you for sharing this story. He did have his personal failings, however his contributions to NYC and the US far outweigh his personal shortcomings.

Wow...perfect example of scripture to pin point where I currently find myself. Remember my niece...I'm using the "shrewd as snakes and innocent as doves" strategy as she posts liberal ideology and slurs about Trump in her Snapchat. She said to me and I quote "if Trump is God's pick, then God was always bad". So in my next article I'll be introducing the scriptural truths on witchcraft which I believe she's totally under the spell of. She's not reading my Substack...yet. But I'm saving this article and it's scriptures for my challenge. Epic article AGAIN! I wanted you to know because I took your comment that I can't force her to heart... because she's really lost to the dark side . And I thrive on challenges. What a blessing your writing is to personally help me!🙂

Thank you, Deb. I'm so glad you're finding the articles helpful. Remember to pray for God's direction on how to approach your niece. Sometimes we get caught up in the challenge because we want so badly to help someone. But if our approach is wrong or they view us as overbearing our passion sometimes has the opposite effect. Don't forget, it's not you she's rebelling against, it's God. I'll keep praying for you both.

Yes... and thankfully my husband is alot like you and keeps me in check. When she said God was always bad...he said just tell her you love her and you're always here for her. She just said yeah.. Don't worry.
