Lehigh Valley Conservative

I’m sure you are wondering why in the heck does this guy want to start yet another Blog?

Don’t we have enough information? As a matter of fact don’t we have so many facts that we can no longer tell the truth within this information?

That may well be the truth. Having so many bits of facts does not get you anything but a whole lot of information. I would submit to you, that if this information is not presented in a logical fashion, with the intent of getting to understanding and the answer, it is worth nothing. In fact it will hinder and confuse ones’ efforts in understanding what is truly going on. If after gathering of the so called facts, one can not organize the understanding of those facts into a series of questions, it will not help you in arriving at an answer and if you can not get to the answer what good is this information. We will be forever locked into a situation were the issue is framed in such a fashion as to create nothing but confusion with no resolution of the problem.

I would submit to you that is exactly what has happen, with the Politicians, Neo-conservatives, and Liberals framing the debate in such a fashion as to benefit their cause. And I would further submit that the so called Conservative such as the Talk Show Hosts, and the so called Conservative Politicians have locked us into a falsely framed argument either by choice or because of a lack of truly understanding of the problem and its’ solution. One quick example is the debate of: “stay in Iraq” or “pull out of Iraq” this framing of the argument, adds nothing to the understanding and/or resolution of this problem. It only gives the American people a choice and a poor one at that. If you want to gain some understanding of the magnitude of the problem there in the Middle East read Michael B. Oren’s book “Power, Faith, and Fantasy” America in the Middle East 1776 to the present.

My hope is that we can start to ask questions that will lead us down paths to some understanding and answers. If we find the issue being presented with false premises and/or lies we must cease in forcing the issue forward through some compromise. We must immediately stop and focus on the falseness of their position and address it, with the intent of not going any further until that falsehood is exposed and corrected. To compromise truth and continue will only lead to destruction, so let us understand the truth of their position before we continue on.

Where is the Republican Leaders who are the Statesman we so desperately needed? 1st. Chronicles 12:32 tells us the type of Statesman we need, one who understands the time.
