Everybody loves a circus but when the sideshow comes to the White House then perhaps it is time we lower the Big Top and end this THREE RING circus.

Carbon Copies
Isn't it refreshing that we have a President who listens to dictatorial world leaders and follows their fine example of governance? Isn't it wonderful that our fine leader wants to keep open a dialog to all radical Marxist regimes? I guess in order to get along you must look like and sound like them. So instead of copying our own founding fathers Obama choices to flock
with birds of a different feather.

Tax Day Has Arrived
And here I thought I lived in a "free" country
Taxes are first mentioned in the bible in the command (Ex 30:11-16) that every Jew from twenty years and upward should pay an annual tax of "half a shekel for an offering to the Lord." This enactment was faithfully observed for many generations (2Ch 24:6; Mat 17:24).
Afterwards, when the people had kings to reign over them, they began, as Samuel had warned them (1Sa 8:10-18), to pay taxes for civil purposes (1Ki 4:7; 1Ki 9:15; 1Ki 12:4). Such taxes, in increased amount, were afterwards paid to the foreign princes that ruled over them.
In the New Testament the payment of taxes, imposed by lawful rulers, is enjoined as a duty (Rom 13:1-7; 1Pe 2:13, 14). Mention is made of the tax (telos) on merchandise and travellers (Mat 17:25); the annual tax (phoros) on property (Luke 20:22; Luke 23:2); the poll-tax (kensos, "tribute," (Mat 17:25; Mat 22:17; Mark 12:14)); and the temple-tax ("tribute money" = two drachmas = half shekel, (Mat 17:24-27; Compare Ex 30:13)).
