Easter Message

Glenn Miller is running for the U.S. Senate in the state of Missouri. He's asking for your write-in vote. Shown below with his family, Miller describes himself on his website as;

"Retired U.S. Army Master Sergeant. 20 years active duty, with 2 tours in Vietnam and 13 years in the elite Green Beret paratroopers. 3 and 1/2 years college - Johnstone Tech College, Smithfield, NC. Married w/5 children. 43 years actively working for rights of white people."

Seems like a nice enough guy, until you go to his website, http://www.whty.org./ There you find photos such as this;


Interestingly, your cursor turns into a Confederate flag when you go on his website!!

You see, Glenn Miller is a white supremacist. He once formed a North Carolina based group called the Carolina Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, which later became the White Patriot Party. Miller gives his side of the story leading up to his arrest and three year prison sentence by saying, "The WPP marched in camouflage uniforms, 400-500 strong through main streets of dozens of towns and cities, carrying confederate flags, while "War Songs of the Third Reich" blared, and while we screamed our truths about niggers, jews, and mongrels in the streets..."

It just amazes me that there are still people out there with these kinds of beliefs. Where do they get this kind of hatred for their fellow man? I tell my kids all the time that we are all cut from the same sheet of cloth. We are all the same living, breathing, organism in just different shades and from different regions. We can never hope to have "world peace" until we learn that we are all the same.

It can't be us and them. It can't be Christian and Muslims, or white and black, or heterosexual and homosexual. It's we. "We the people..."

John Lennon wrote;

Imagine there's no countries,
it isn't hard to do.
Nothing to kill or die for,
and no religion too.
Imagine all the people,
living life in peace.

You may say that I'm a dreamer,
but I'm not the only one.
I hope someday you'll join us,
and the world will be as one.

Let this be your Easter message this year. "We the people."

Wichita, Kansas - Scott Roeder, 52, received a mandatory sentence of life in prison Thursday for killing abortion doctor Dr. George Tiller and won't be eligible for parole for 50 years.

Defiant to the end, Roeder said, "I stopped him so he could not dismember another baby." Roeder added, "Wichita is a far safer place for unborn babies without George Tiller."


You may recall that Roeder walked into the Reformation Lutheran Church in Wichita, Kansas and shot Dr. Tiller in the head from point blank range while Dr. Tiller served as an usher. Roeder was arrested within three hours of the shooting and never denied being the shooter.

I hope this stiff sentence sends a message to other pro-life activists that they can't take the law into their own hands because of their religious beliefs.

This is exactly how I feel after a long bike ride!!!
I was glad to see that the health care reform finally passed and was signed into law. The Republicans seem to be pretty booboo faced over the lose. Let's hope it helps out the less fortunate who really need the help. Karen informed me that Blue Cross just increased it's rates by 39%. So its obvious we need some restraints on the insurance companies.
