Godless dollars now worth hundreds

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Wednesday, March 07, 2007 11:53:34 PM
Here is a pretty strange report about the US mint forgetting to strike 300 million new dollar coins with out the words "In God We Trust". So if we do not trust in God who do we trust in? Could it be the "almighty" dollar? Now the dollar is worth more then a dollar by being Godless, ""They're going for around $40 to $60 on eBay now, and they'll probably settle in the $50 range." I found one on e-bay going for over $200.00

Tom Tancredo the next leader of the free world

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Wednesday, March 07, 2007 11:34:58 PM
I quite enjoyed this speech from Tom Tancredo at CPAC on March 2nd. He is a passionate guy, and I do remember another powerful president who once also ran on one major issue. Keep the spirit alive, Tom you really do stand for "truth, justice, and the American Way" I hope this guy go's far.

Tom Tancredo for President

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Sunday, March 04, 2007 12:16:21 PM
The presidential election is getting started earlier and earlier as the years pass. More candidates want to get their name out and need to raise hundreds of millions of dollars before the election ever begins. We are seeing a plethora of candidates to chose from. In the GOP there are a few front runners, but none of them are really standing up for conservative values. None of them are serious about illegal immigration, social security reform, abortion, and so on. If illegal immigration is the most important issue of the 2008 election then there is only one candidate that stands out above the rest, his name is Tom Tancredo. On the MSM, and even talk radio and Fox, there is not much buzz about this guy. Maybe those in charge do not feel he is electable, but he could be with the right backing. Even so with the candidates who are the current GOP front runners they might be electable, but they are not conservatives. They are more like a RINO. Do not get me wrong McCain and Gilulani would do a good job as President, but they won't stand up for conservative values. Forget Democrat vs. Republican, this election needs to be about liberal vs. conservative, or as Bill O'Reilly would call them secular progressives vs. traditional values (T warriors). So if this is the case we need to support those who are supporting our issues and values. I mean come on the left has their warriors, where are our conservative warriors? One of those warriors is Tom Tancredo, please look into what he stands for and his passion. Check out his website

Please check out Mr. Tancredo and find out more about him and what he stands for. If not this may be the GOP presidential candidate in 2008

Bank of America = Bank of Illegal Immigrants

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Sunday, March 04, 2007 11:47:37 AM
As someone who works in the finance industry I am very upset about Bank of America's decision to give credit cards to people who are in America illegally. At the financial institution where I work we no longer accept any Mexican ID's to open accounts, we also are turning away people who do not have entry stamps or visas in their passport. I mean come on how did these people get here if they do not have an entry stamp. In the long run this decision will hurt BOA. Sure they are a big bank and most people do not care, but where is the recourse when an illegal immigrant defaults on their loan? What happens when they are deported back to Mexico or just decide that they want to go back to Mexico? Just as what is going on with the sub-prime mortgage market where defaults and delinquencies are rising and hurting the lenders, so too will this decision will hurt BOA.
Here is an example, "Shares of NovaStar Financial, which makes loans to people with weak credit, fell almost 43 percent on Wednesday after the company announced a surprise loss of $14.4 million for the fourth quarter and told investors that it might not make enough money to pay dividends for the next four years."
 http://www.iht.com/articles/2007/02/22/business/credit.php

I had written a letter to BOA about this decision and here is their response.

Dear Lance,

Thank you for your inquiry dated 2/21/07 regarding the new credit card
program. We value you as a customer and appreciate your business. Your
concerns are very important to us and we will be happy to assist you.

Bank of America created this pilot in Los Angeles to help current
customers who have deposits with us, but little or no credit history,
build a credit history. The program is consistent with our goal of
helping our customers meet their financial needs.

We are careful to comply with U.S. laws and regulations, including the
USA Patriot Act, and use the same criteria to extend credit across our
entire customer base. We require all customers to provide us with two
forms of identification, one of which must be an unexpired U.S. or
foreign government-issued identification card. Our banking center
associates then verify the customer's identity.

Customers who sign up for this particular credit card program must also
have an existing deposit account with us.

This program is being piloted in predominantly Hispanic communities in
Southern California, and offers a secured credit card to existing Bank
of America deposit account holders who have little or no credit history.

Bank of America strives to provide the best products and services to
achieve customer satisfaction.

We are committed to keeping your customer information confidential,
safe, and secure while you are using Online Banking. If you are
concerned about the security and confidentiality of your account, please
send us another message and we will be glad to assist you with any
concerns.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. If we may be
of further assistance, please contact us again by e-mail. Thank you for
choosing Bank of America.

Sincerely,

Sam Patt
Bank of America

I would call for a boycott but that will not do any good, but what I do call for is all Americans who care about their country to do their homework before they do business with anyone. Think about who you are giving your money to and what they are doing with it. There are other businesses who offer the same services and who have different values and confusions, do business with them. Be picky you are the consumer, you are the boss.

Lets Roll

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Sunday, March 04, 2007 11:30:50 AM
In the world of bloging there is so much to say and so few people listening. There are so many people who want to be heard, and thank God we live in a country where we can speak our mind. I personally want to speak my mind about the evils of the world, but get the feeling like no one wants to hear me. Also in my short lived time bloging I became even more polarized and angry at the way of the world, and the direction of our country. I kept my blog up because I thought there were some good posts that should live on, but after a blog friend emailed me and asked me to come back I thought long and hard and said that I must do this. Forget for the world, but for my self. This is a good release so that I can direct my mind and attention to getting out these thoughts and feelings. Even if there was not a single person reading this I do not care anymore, because I am no longer doing this for the world, I am writing for selfish reasons, for myself. So now that I am back for real ... "lets roll"!!!!

Should Madonna be allowed to riase children? I think not!!

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Saturday, November 04, 2006 3:39:02 PM
I think that someone needs to call child services because Madonna should not be raising children especially after this comment, "Madonna said yesterday that she does not want to be a wife and a mother. And she confessed her older children, Lourdes, 10, and Rocco, six, complain that she neglects them." This from an article written in the Daily Mail located at Madonna: Being a wife and mother isn't what I want This comment comes from a interview she did in the UK. Wow it is amazing how foolish the wicked really are, as the bible says Luke 6:45 "The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks." So Madonna if you do not want to be a mother why adopt another child who you will also neglect? If you believe in Jesus like you say believe his words!!!

Just a Thought

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Friday, November 03, 2006 6:14:30 PM
I am a young conservative, I have not been a conservative that long nor have I been alive that long, but I believe that I have a unique perspective on the world based on my past experiences.
Growing up in a liberal Jewish home has had played its roll in my life, along with my amazing conversion to Christianity. I truly was blind, but now thank God I can see. I want to ba a seeker of truth and one who also spreads the truth. I have had many ideas, one that I keep coming back to mind is creating a daily news report from a young conservative perspective.
I am a reflection of the society which the baby boomers have created, many in my generation are waking up, maybe not spirituality but definitely socially. It could be the internets vast database of knowledge or that the folly in our parents ideology is now coming to light, but whatever it is more people my age want to see younger people doing the news and expounding on the days issues.
I was blown away yesterday with an exchange I had with a local political who is running for the Senate. He is a Republican and much older then I am. I noticed him walking around the mall and happened to bump into him. I said "Bob Hough?' he said yes, I said "I voted for you yesterday", he thanked me and then asked me if I was a Republican or Independent. I said that I am kinda a Republican, but then said that I was more of a conservative. He did not ask me anything else after that question and then just walked away to talk to other voters. What made me angry about this exchange is first he won't win, not even by a long shoot, this is Dem Country, so he should not even hold his breath, but it was nice to see him make an effort and fly to my island. Second, it was like he did not care about my opinions, was it because I am 30 years younger then him? My first question to anyone in a different generation who voted for me would be "Why?" I would want to know what was working and what voters thought about my positions, but he did not care, sure to be fair I am sure he was looking to turn around some who are on the fence, but come on I voted for you man! This just shows me how out of touch the older generations are toward us who are younger.
Being a strong conservative is a lonely place to be. If I was into all types of wickedness there would be more of a place for me then in the place of truth. Jesus said to enter through the narrow gate, that is the gate I choose to walk. On that path I desire to help others change their lives through the power of knowing the truth, because it will set you free.
So I believe there is a place for a younger person online commenting on the daily news, and would like to know what others think about this idea? Please leave your comments. But I would also need help with this effort, if you could not tell I am not much of a writer, and would need help writing, if you could lend a hand that would be great too. I would be posting my reports on YouTube and then link them here on my blog, is'nt technology great. But I am nervous because I would be opening myself up more and need support for that decision. Please let me know your thoughts!! Mahalo!!

Boycott Wal-Mart speak with your money not your mouth

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Friday, November 03, 2006 3:40:43 PM
On the Wal-Mart story... The Baptist Press has reported that Wal-Mart is flaunting their embrace of radical diversity, through their support of homosexual activities. Please support a boycott of Wal-Mart, they do not need our money if they do not want to stop supporting an anti-family practice. In the article they bring up the point how citizens rising up to boycott another company who has been supporting homosexual agenda.
See the full article at Wal-Mart: 'gay-friendly' & proud of it
“Corporate America has paid royally for offending values voters,” Perkins said in the FRC Action Update e-mail Oct. 24. “In the last few months, the Ford Motor Company -- which refused to change its pro-homosexual stance -- has announced double-digit losses. Under pressure, NBC, which considered airing a concert where Madonna hangs from a crucifix, decided not to double-cross viewers and pulled the scene.

Want a job? Keep Republicans in power

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Friday, November 03, 2006 12:33:22 PM
So how much will we be hearing about the new unemployment rates? My guess not at all, unless you read the news online. This is a huge news story because it bolsters the fact that the Republican lead government has accomplished another goal. But you can be sure the MSM will not give credit where credit is due they will find something else to give credit to this great news. Unemployment rates are the lowest they have even been in 5 1/2 years. That means more people are working and providing for their family and we still have room for low wage illegal migrant workers, this is amazing!! Keep the Republicans in power, even though they are not perfect they are the lesser of two evils.   
Read the story here Unemployment rate lowest in nearly 5-1/2 years

Thank You

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Friday, November 03, 2006 12:26:30 PM
This is a thank you to the many local and federal law enforcement agents who participated in last weeks operation Falcon III. This operation captured 10,733 fugitives, including gang members, sex offenders, murders, and other evil people. This operation and others like it is a product of the Adam Walsh Act signed in 2006. It is sad to see something good come from something evil, but as Joseph said in the book of Genesis "what you ment for evil God ment for good".
It is nice to see our law enforcement communities working together to protect our citizens. With operations like this and the ones that ICE are carrying out we will be living in a more safer America. Lets hope that these operations can continue and that the coming changes in the House and Senate will not repeal these good things that came out of the Bush adminstration.

Illegal Immigrants out of Control

Posted by Conservative in Paradise on Thursday, November 02, 2006 2:33:55 PM
Here is a story I found interesting the title is 12-Year-Old Baby Sitter Fights Off Naked Intruder In N.Y.
now if that title does not get you interested and angry, I think what the report says about the suspect is even more interesting. Found in the fifth paragraph the article reports, "The suspect, whom police identified as Rigoberto Perez, 33, fell into a stream and was arrested. Police said Perez was a homeless illegal alien from Guatemala." Obviously this was written by a liberal because why did they not add this fact into the title, it is important to know what illegal immigrants are doing in our country. Liberals just want us to think they are all honest and hardworking "migrant workers", and this is not always the case. That is why we need to protect our borders and immigration laws. These type of things are going on more and more, either their immigration status is not reported or it is berried with in the story, as is the case in this article.
