- The Senate Armed Services Committee told me today that
the national defense authorization bill, with hate bill attached, will
definitely not be considered for final approval until Monday. If approved,
it could be sent to the President for immediate signing. Next week Republican
Senators will probably attempt to strip the hate bill off the defense bill.
But their efforts are likely as doomed as the valiant maneuvers by Republicans,
such as Louie Gohmert and Randy Forbes, to strip it off in the House. The
numerical power of the Democrat majority is too powerful.
-
- Could Republicans persuade Pres. Obama to veto the defense/hate
bill-thus honoring his promise to veto $100 billion for extra F-35 engines?
Unfortunately, virtually all House Republicans who oppose the hate bill
also support F-35 production. As soon as the Senate passes the defense
bill, effective Republican efforts will end. Who's left?
-
- God and the American people!
-
- It is not too late to email the President and hold him
to his promise to veto any defense bill he and the Pentagon say contains
unnecessary military "pork." It is still possible to flood the
White House with these messages:
-
- · Mr. President, I will vote out Democrats
at midterms if you sign the freedom-destroying federal hate crimes bill.
-
- · Mr. President, I expect you to keep your
promise to veto any military authorization bill that wastes $100 billion
of taxpayers' money on unnecessary F-35 jet engines.
-
- Send these two messages in separate emails. You may
cut and paste them at HYPERLINK "<http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/>http://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/"

-
- It is time to call to Almighty God for deliverance. The
Bible is charged with stories of how God's people and their godly leaders
repeatedly faced overwhelming, impossible obstacles. Yet when the Hebrews
cried to Him and stopped sinning, God always sent a way of deliverance.
-
- It is no different today. If we turn to God in faith
and repentance, He can make "a way where there is no way."
-
- This summer, after leading the hate bill fight since
January, I was stunned by hate bill passage in the House and Senate. I
was afraid I would have to accept defeat at last. Yet in early August I
was encouraged by town hall protest and especially Obama's warnings that
he would veto a defense/hate bill package requiring $100 billion for F-35
engines. I encouraged listeners to influence the upcoming conference between
House and Senate to do exactly what Obama forbade: demand $100 billion
for extra engines. For most, such congressional rebellion was a long stretch.
Yet it happened! Now all that may be lacking to empower Obama to actually
keep his word is overwhelming support from the American people. Thousands
have emailed their support for Obama and his veto promise. Thousands more
must email before Monday.
-
- God is still a God of miracles-last minute, astonishing
deliverances. That's because He's a God of love and faithfulness, the same
yesterday, today, and forever.
-
- Do your part through faith (repentance and prayer) and
works (emailing) to make such deliverance as easy as possible for God and
Obama.
