Isn't it interesting that President Obama vowed for a more transparent Gov't and has failed to do so with his own administration, but is now looking to loosen the grip on our nations past secrets? 

Happy Birthday Jesus!

Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.

“the American people will have the vote they deserve” - President Obama

This is what we get for not paying attention, and believeing a lie.

John 3:19 "This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil."

 Our "representatives" will be voting for a "healthcare bill" after midnight Sunday...

"The compromise gets Reid to the 60 votes he needs to move ahead with health reform, but it’s going to be a long weekend. The first vote right now is set for 1 a.m. Monday"

USA Today had a report on how federal salary figures have exploded. they have looked at the Office of Personnel Management's database which included the salaries of 2 million+ federal employees, excluding "the White House, Congress, the Postal Service, intelligence agencies and uniformed military personnel." They found that these employees on average make $30k more than their civilian counterparts.

"The growth in six-figure salaries has pushed the average federal worker's pay to $71,206, compared with $40,331 in the private sector."

Why does the gov’t pay better than the private sector, or more like, why do we allow it?

 If we take the 2 million federal workers and reduce the average pay by $30,000 (from $70,000 to $40,000) the gov’t would save $60,000,000,000 of OUR tax dollars a YEAR.

 That familiar passage is from John the Baptist (John 3:30), saying as how he must become lesser in the eyes of man, so the glory of the Christ could be revealed.

In a way America is in the same situation, but we aren't doing it willingly. For God's glory to be revealed Israel can't hide behind the skirt of the greatest nation on earth. Israel has to be, for all intents and purposes, completely vulnerable.

Another thing to consider is that the US would not bow to the Anti-Christ, at least not yet. We are still a mostly Christian nation, though a pretty pathetic one at this point.

So one one front we have our President doing everything he can to weaken our country, (whether deliberately or not, it doesn't matter) by putting us deep in debt and strangling the economy with Cap and Trade, & Health Care.

Then on the other front we have Iran's President Ahmadinejad saying "They (The USA) have devised all these plans to prevent the coming of the Hidden Imam (the Anti-Christ?) because they know that the Iranian nation is the one that will prepare the grounds for his coming and will be the supporters of his rule," 

In order to get the ball rolling on the end times, I believe the USA has to decrease, so he can increase... both the Anti-Christ and the true Son of God.

Last night I installed Windows 7 onto a machine that I had built for a friend. Besides a issue with some RAM the building of the machine was a snap.

So I go to install the 64 bit version of Windows 7 upgrade, since this was a new machine, I didnt want to have to go to the trouble of installing his copy of XP, then do a clean install of Windows, so I wanted to see if Win 7 behaved the same way previous versions of Windows upgrade versions workd, which is: Windows looks for a copy of the OS, if it isnt present, then it will ask for you to put a copy of the old OS software in the floppy drive or CD.

It didnt ask instead it asked if I want to upgrade or do a custom install. I choose custom and spend the next hour installing the software. All went well until it asked for the product key. I entered in the key on the box and it said invalid key. I entered the XP key in, same thing. After a bit of searching I find out I have to install XP first. It would have been nice to know that ahead of time so I woulnt have to install an OS three times on one machine in a span of 3 hours.

My guess is the disks that come in the "upgrade" package are full installs, and only the keys are different depending on if the "windows.old" directory is on the hard drive.

On a positive note, if found all the drivers nessesary for the machine to run properly, though I will probably upgrade the video drivers.
