STOP BEING BULLIED ~ TODAY IS THE DAY

DO MEN THINK CARRYING A GUN IS SEXY?  THE SHOOTING OF INNOCENTS
"The shooter, dressed in para-military gear, targeted kindergartners and first graders." ~ CNN
 Do men think guns are sexy?


Should the government allow everyone to have a stash of Anthrax or a personal nuclear weapon or a missle in their closet, just in case ya'll need it to kill a group of people with?  You think a weapon that can kill 30 people in rapid succession is a normal weapon?  Is it really fear driving you or "eye for an eye" renegade justice? Or is it talk radio amping up the "survivalist mentality" out of fear of the so--called Apocalypse? 


First of all, America worships violence. I am so sensitive lately I can't even watch a James Bond movie. I was so upset over my husband and stepson's immunity and lack of feeling over the last violent movie we saw together, I had to get out of the car and walk home. Violence is not normal to the human soul. My stepson actually got mad at me and said he was annoyed that I was making him "have a conscience" and making him think. He just wanted to enjoy the killing in the movie without being reminded that human lives were spent.

Anger and fear are a deadly combination, no matter what "mentall illness" bad mood, or depression someone is going through. Words cannot describe the pain and grief these families are feeling right now. Our hearts go out to everyone who has lost a child, parent, brother, sister or loved one. God Bless the families of Newton, Connecticut, Aurora, Colorado and Happy Valley, Orgeon — and all the others from Gabby Gifford's shooting, to the Virginia Tech shooting to the Unity Church shooting (egged on by Rush Limbaugh and the other fear mongers who hate liberals for being peacemakers) and the Colombine massacre, and all other mass shootings of innocents throughout our history.

 The time has come. Providence has stepped in, as was the case with Hurricane Sandy. There is no mistaking the evidence, and what we have to do as a nation.

 Remember Glen Beck screaming on CNN: 'Obama's gonna take your guns!!" ~ which resulted in a young man being so fearful and angry (a deadly combination) that he gathered all his semi-automatic weapons and aimed them at the front door and killed the police officers who entered the home at his mother's behest? '

 In China a man took a knife and injured 20 school children. "Injured" is the operative word. The children are still alive. But in America, we have 20 dead children. Remember the Timeline of the insurrection -- hundreds of right wing killings based on the NRA promoting FEAR of liberals taking your gun rights away? In the Constitution, our forefathers NEVER wrote the Second Amendment thinking we would ever need semiautomatic weapons in our homes. Any person with a mental disorder, an anger issue -- or even momentary angerm or a bad mood, or suicidal thought -- can pick up a gun and make a deadly mistake. Why on earth would we, a so-called 'Christian nation" go against everything the Great Peacemaker stated in the Bible? Why would anyone promote ownership of military assault rifles? What a sick nation we are But LOVE will heal us. Don't be alone. What has happened in a strange way, is Divine Providence trying desperately to get our attention. Whethe you believe in a deity or simply "God as Love, which is what I believe -- then we must realize that our higher selves (where the Bible says the Kingdom is, "within us' -- our higher selves are screaming out in pain and desperation; we need to comde together and discuss this without being bullied by fearmongers like the NRA. I am sick and tired of knowing the truth, knowing the Christ Truth, and being called a communist or socialist for wanting peace and love to reign.


You don't find it a bit eerie that Sandy Hook and Superstorm Sandy share a common name? One may have had a hand in turning the tide for Obama's election win because it makes sense that disaster victims receive government help via FEMA funding. Who else is going to step in out of the philanthropy of their heart (aside from the American people?  Red Cross donations, which we all contribute to I'm sure, can't possibly cover all the losses in a major disaster like Hurricane Katrina or Supertorm Sandy.)  This is where Federal Emergency Aid has to come through.  
What a bizarre time to be greedy. And Obama's desire to help disaster victims with federal aid (FEMA) helped him win the election. It was common sense. It also seemed to be providence moving earth and sky. Then with Sandy Hook -- a horrifying sacrifice of lambs in displaying the most innocent victims of gun violence in order to wake us up! How can anyone in Congress -- Democrat or Republican -- vote against their conscience? How can anyone vote against common sense gun control? How can anyone vote against universal background checks and a limit on military assault weapon sales?

Sobiech embraced music as a way of bidding farewell to his friends and family.

HAUNTING "CLOUDS" ~ A TEEN SAYS GOODBYE ~ (BLESS YOU ZACH SOBIECH



PLEASE listen to this AMAZING, beautiful song written by 17-year-old Zach Sobiech who suffers from bone cancer and is facing his last Christmas. Let's give him a million hits on Youtube to help children with bone cancer.

GOD BLESS YOU ZACH, Please stay. You are a shining light. We need you here. Let's make sure this kid sticks around. Don't give up before the miracle

Love you
xoxoxo

After battling bone cancer for three years, Minnesota teenager Zach Sobiech was told this past May that the disease had spread and that there were no longer any effective treatments available. In response to this disheartening diagnosis, Sobiech embraced music as a way of bidding farewell to his friends and family. The resulting song, titled "Clouds," is an inspirational and courageous message of hope in the face of a harrowing future. You can hear Sobiech's "Clouds" and learn more about his story on YouTube http://youtu.be/sDC97j6lfyc ___________________________________________________ And then there's THIS song "TAKE A WALK" is the saddest, most haunting song I've heard in years. This song is so sad, so haunting. It describes what's wrong with the American Dream, and with America. It reminds me of "Death of a Salesman" which I saw when I was little. (Lee J. Cobb killed!) I love this song. So profound. Wow. Worf, Volt, Moo, FF Mike, Clif and Will Tell me what you think the lyrics mean "This song...floored...me. Haunted, almost. There's lots of pop sh*t out there but this one rings true in unsettling ways, and if you let your imagination drive for a few blocks...it'll probably seem just as 'real' as anything you'll find out there on any street in America" Read more at http://www.songmeanings.net/songs/view/3530822107859431339/#dBzxBqxmPE8ucR9j.99

LARRY HAGMAN'S SILENT SUNDAYS IN MALIBU

I am shocked and saddened at the death of Larry Hagman, who passed away yesterday. But I just heard the news that Deborah Raffin died too, and I can't believe it! I just worked with her on a talk show in Las Vegas.   
I remember being at Larry Hagman's home in Malibu Colony, during "silent Sunday" when he fasted on words and wouldn't speak. He sat in a Tee-pee on the deck by the ocean, and we all took a jacuzzi in the living room. His wife Maj was amazing. Then upstairs in the study we each got million dollar bills signed by J.R. Danny Bolin of Bolin Belt company was there - silversmiths who made all the Dallas belts. Amazing stuff. I have silver heart belt buckle with my initial "L" Rest in Peace Larry, Love and blessings.




Note on last posting: The only reason I put my website up for DVDs of "Too Close for Comfort" was because I saw them on Amazon going for $999.98 and $59 on up, and was shocked! I only sell these in conjunction with a charity and a percentage goes to another company. So for any "Too Close for Comfort" fans who asked me about the show, where it's playing, etc... I just wanted you to know that it's for sale on my website for much less, and autographed too. I always include photos and free gift. I can't reduce or change the price or get into my website until we get our technology back but it's a great deal. DO NOT FEEL OBLIGATED just because you're my friend here. I am just letting everyone know they can get them on my site, and photos too. Love you all. I certainly don't expect you to buy anything. Love and HAPPY THANKSGIVING ALL YEAR LONG!!

LINCOLN: BEST MOVIE

Spielberg's masterpiece "LINCOLN" blew me away. Daniel Day Lewis, one of the best actors on the planet, was the essence of Abraham Lincoln — as far as we know him from history books. A deeply fair man, he radiated the best qualities of mankind.

These days we need all the heroes we can get. And I don't mean sports stars. Lincoln's wit, innate goodness, quiet wisdom and deep reasoned reflection — elevated him to an almost superhuman figure. But this is what we should all aspire to be: ego-free, humble, wise, compassionate and smart.  He seemed to glow from within.

What a difference when you think of braggarts like Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, certain candidates or any shallow self-promoter.

What impressed me the most was his humility, and the way he turned to his own internal codes.  He was a true leader, with moral courage. He won the popular vote twice, but didn't care about being popular. He didn't indulge in people-pleasing, and refused to be swayed by others' opinions — even of those in his cabinet. He wasn't insecure or indecisive -- though he did have gut-wrenching, complex moral dilemmas.  What I loved the most was his turning to his inner code.

Lincoln was a real man: quiet, soft-spoken, never egotistical, never petty. 

And the cast was insanely great: such an array of faces we all love!  Tommy Lee Jones, hilarious and raw and feisty as the most liberal abolitionist of the Republican party, could hardly contain himself when called upon to be "moderate." 

And James Spader was never more fun to watch with his walrus mustache and mercenary vote-buying goodness. 

I loved Sally Field, even though her bitchiness and self-centered nagging made me cringe. 

This movie got me back on tack with my own mission. It inspired me to stop wasting time. I really want to help change the world for the better. All these years, I've been afraid to speak out too much, so I've kept one foot in the doorway. I should have blasted Ann Coulte for her bigotry and hate speak -- in much louder ways. But Lincoln knew that timing was everything. 

The time is now.

LIPA, SANDY VICTIMS, ELECTION, FREE-FOR-ALL

I'm sorry for not posting a blog on the devastating loss, destruction and wreckage back east. We are not paying enough attention to our east coast residents affected by Hurricane Sandy and the noreaster.

Please donate to the Red Cross, and pray for them all.

http://redcross.org

Donate just one dollar $1.00 if that is all you have.

What is going on with LIPA   - Long Island Power Authority?

What do you think the truth is>

Also, Please leave your comments here on Dick Morris' admission that he just made up the "good numbers" on Romney winning because he wanted Mitt Romney to feel better.

Hmmm

We are starting our new show soon, just getting the new equipment tested.

Love and Peace,
Luv xo

Lydia

This is going to be a great year!!

PLEASE VOTE! THIS IS AMAZING! AND EVEN MORE GOOD THINGS ARE ON THE WAY!

PLEASE don't forget to VOTE on Tuesday. It is your right and privilege as an American Citizen. 

WOMEN must come out and vote tomorrow. Obama is your only choice and the BEST choice.

President Obama PASSED THE EQUAL PAY FOR WOMEN ACT - after Republicans stopped it for years. 

And remember: Two women were chosen by President Obama to serve on the Supreme Court: Kagan and Sotomayor, the first female Hispanic Supreme Court Justice

President Obama has stopped credit card companies from illegal fee hikes, protected the Consumer int the most comprehensive CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT in history. He got heal care for over 4 million underprivileged children and He stopped predatory lenders. He has been moving this country forward. He's rescued our economy from the brink of collapse. He's passed health reform and ended the war in Iraq. He's fought to help women get equal pay for equal work, make sure students can afford college, ensure that our seniors can retire with dignity, and that our veterans can get the benefits they have earned. 

I wonder why Obama didn't tout his amazing accomplishments?

Mitt Romney is a curious fellow. He does not tell the truth at all. He has no integrity. I'm sorry but this is a fact. 

Mitt Romney has promised to:

Puts bosses in charge of whether women can get birth control included in their medical insurance
Overturn the right to have an abortion in first 8 weeks: Roe v. Wade
Overturn Affordable Health Care
Overturn PBS
Overturn Women's Health Care
Let Banks take over home foreclosures so homeowners can "rent" their homes back from the banks.
