John McCain - American Hero

John McCain was a Prisoner of War for 5 and a half years during the Vietnam War. He is an American Hero. He loves this Country and has alway placed it first! That's why McCain is the right man to be our next President.

I cry when I think about the horrors they endured in Hanoi.

Please Watch this recount of his POW days by his cellmate and one of the most decorated war veterans, Bud Day:


Barack Obama does not place hand on heart during National Anthem

Here is the video of Obama - not placing his hand over his heart during the National Anthem. I think it is very concerning - especially when you can see his connections with others (even former terrorists) who are very Anti-American.

I saw this event live on C-Span when it first happened. I know it is true.



It's evident by those standing next to Obama... that this is how we Americans respect the song and our country when our Anthem is played. We don't make up our own rules. We honor the flag, our troops, and America according to the standards and traditions that we are taught as children. You rise, remove your hat, act reverently, and place your hand on your heart!

Obviously, when Obama was growing up in Indonesia they didn't teach him this.


Sarah Palin -- my view on the VP candidate + Who I'm Voting for...



Today, I'm veering off of the usual subject of Family Movies. Even though, I just updated the Christmas TV Schedule, I'm not going to discuss that today.

I'm very excited to share with you all... that I attended a Sarah Palin Rally and it was wonderful! I went with my family and just had the best time. We wore red to show our support- to make our state stay RED! Sarah's message rang out loud and clear and I am proud to be a McCain Palin Supporter... a true Conservative.

I met wonderful kind people at the rally and was able to wave outside, alongside my family, as her motorcade went by - about 10 feet away! It was an awesome moment... a part of history I'll cherish forever.

Some of you who read this may also support the McCain Palin ticket (that's Great!) and others may not, but I'd like to share with you all why I support John McCain and Sarah Palin for President and Vice President of the United States.

1. I am Pro-Life

I believe Life begins at conception, as John McCain and Sarah Palin believe. Barack Obama's answer to when life begins: It's above his pay-grade.

Also, as a State Senator in the state of Illinois- Barack Obama voted 4 TIMES against providing medical care for babies who survived abortions and were fully alive and out of their Mother's womb. Instead, these babies were left to die in soiled utility rooms. He supported infanticide. This matter is very upsetting and horrible. These poor innocent lives were left to just die - often alone. It's sad and cruel to think there is any human being who could support such a thing - yet Barack Obama did. (You can read more about it at BornAliveTruth.org.)

Obama is Pro-Abortion to the extreme. Barack Obama supports Partial Birth Abortion... this is the procedure where they stabb half-born babies (with their head still in their Mother's Womb) in their neck with scissors, suctioning out their brains and crushing their skulls. President Bush signed a law to pro-hibit this action... Obama wants to reverse it.

Barack Obama opposes parental notification of minor girls before they abort their baby.

Barack Obama has stated “the first thing I’d do as president“ would be to sign the Freedom of Choice Act, which would overturn every local, state, and federal abortion law passed in the past 35 years.

The Bible says this....
"I knew you before you were in your Mother's Womb." - Jeremiah 1:5

Wake up America... we cannot keep killing the weakest among us! We cannot continue to slaughter 5,000 babies in this Country everyday and look the other way.

What will God say to you...

Thank You for Voting and standing up for my Babies

or will he say...

Why did you Vote to kill my Babies?


2. I believe in Less Government

Conservative values say Government get out of the way... I can handle it myself... I'll work hard, love my neighbor, and provide for my family.

A Liberal view is that we are helpless and we need their hand-out... thus the reason why John McCain supports TAX CUTS for everyone and why Barack Obama believes, as he shared with Joe the Plumber, that we need to "Spread the Wealth Around". Sounds like socialism to me, too, Joe.

My family owns a small business... (we are a family of hardwoking generational farmers) and we work hard for every penny. We live the American Dream, but higher taxes would hurt us.

It's important that we keep America and businesses - (big and small) strong especially in this tough economy. Business is what this country is founded - where our people are employed and where we get our goods and services. They have to have tax cuts to keep this Country Strong!

3. National Security
I agree strongly with John McCain and Sarah Palin... we need VICTORY in Iraq. Barack Obama wants to pull out as soon as possible.

And nevermind the fact that Obama wants to sit down with dictators like the Iran, Cuban, and Venezualan Preidents without pre-conditions. This is unprecendented in American History.

Obama has also said that Iran is a small country and not a threat to us... yet they are busy building up their weapons against us.

Scary? I believe.... yes!

During the Tom Harkin Fish Frye where the National Anthem was sung - Obama was the only candidate there - who did not place his hand over his heart. This action is disgraceful, in my opinion.

I was always taught - when the anthem played- you show respect and place your hand on your heart. This is another reason why I like Sarah Palin - she said she still gets a lump in her throat whenever she hears it.

I love my Country, our Troops, and I cherish everything about America!

John McCain is an American Hero! He has served our country since the age of 17. He was a Navy Pilot who survived a terrible fire on his aircraft carrier where many men perished. He was shot down in his plane and became a POW for over 5 years. He was beaten severely... near death many times... nearly every bone in his body was broken. Yet, John McCain survived and came home in honor and continued to serve his country.

Well, that's three reasons... but I have plenty more -- including Energy Independence, The Definition of Marriage, and Experience- I believe John McCain has the experience and knowledge to be a Great President!

Well, now you know where I stand...

with the unborn, our veterans, our troops, our small business owners, and with you, my fellow American....

Choose Life -- That you might Live!


Until next time...


God bless you all,

Fireproof

I was so blessed by the Behind the Scenes Making of Fiireproof, which aired late last week on TBN. What an amazing Christian atmosphere went into making this movie... why it is certainly more than just a movie - it's a ministry.



The movie stars Kirk Cameron... a favorite actor of mine going back to his days as Mike Seaver on Growing Pains. I have enjoyed following his career and life story. The Way of the Master Program that he and Ray Comfort have developed together is a powerful and amazing tool to lead non-believers to Christ.


It was so interesting to see all the details that went into making the movie... in the Behind the Scenes Making of Fireproof... and how all the people participating weren't paid a penny - they were all there to serve! I was especially taken and blessed by one scene where a car is stuck on the train tracks and a train is coming and they have to get the car out of the way fast ... well in order to make this scene happen they needed a backhoe to move the car around- and amazingly enough the man who lived next door to the train tracks where they were filming - not only had a backhoe, but was such a fan of their other movies - Flywheel and Facing the Giants (I like those movies, too!) ... that he offered his services and the backhoe for free.




Here's the Description of the Movie from the Official Web-site - http://www.fireproofthemovie.com/:




At work, inside burning buildings, Capt. Caleb Holt lives by the old firefighter's adage: Never leave your partner behind. At home, in the cooling embers of his marriage, he lives by his own rules.

Growing up, Catherine Holt always dreamed of marrying a loving, brave firefighter...just like her daddy. Now, after seven years of marriage, Catherine wonders when she stopped being "good enough" for her husband.

Regular arguments over jobs, finances, housework, and outside interests have readied them both to move on to something with more sparks.

As the couple prepares to enter divorce proceedings, Caleb's father challenges his son to commit to a 40-day experiment: "The Love Dare." Wondering if it's even worth the effort, Caleb agrees-for his father's sake more than for his marriage. When Caleb discovers the book's daily challenges are tied into his parents' newfound faith, his already limited interest is further dampened.

While trying to stay true to his promise, Caleb becomes frustrated time and again. He finally asks his father, "How am I supposed to show love to somebody who constantly rejects me?"

When his father explains that this is the love Christ shows to us, Caleb makes a life-changing commitment to love God. And with God's help he begins to understand what it means to truly love his wife.

But is it too late to fireproof his marriage? His job is to rescue others. Now Caleb Holt is ready to face his toughest job ever...rescuing his wife's heart.




I am so looking forward to seeing this movie. The Rating is PG-13, but I suspect that it is due to the violence of the firefighting scenes. I just thought I would pass along to you all how wonderful the Making of the Movie was and encourage you to see it, if you have the opportunity.
The Making of the Movie airs again tonight-

Making of 'Fireproof'
TBN -- 09/27/2008 2:00 AM
Hope you all can catch it!

Yay! I'm so excited!!!! I actually have my very own web domain now on the internet. It's http://www.itsawonderfulmovie.com/. Please feel free to pass it on...

I created the title: It's A Wonderful Movie based upon my ultimate favorite movie - "It's A Wonderful Life"! Since my web-site is about Family Films and Christmas Movies and a place where I review movies suitable for family viewing - I think the name fits it perfectly! So It's A Wonderful Movie was born out of that... my love for family and film!

You will also see a revised banner on my web-site with the new name and logo. You can check it out here: http://www.itsawonderfulmovie.com/ .
