ONE YEAR AGO
Ask yourself, have things gotten better? On June 23 of 2009 the following was the posting made by Linden:
10.4 PERCENT:
This is how far we are through the term of the Obama election. Many really bad things have happened thus far. Lets consider some of them.
Abortion: Obama has lent support to this abomination both within our country and around the world.
ACORN: Much taxpayer money has been funneled to them.
Bailouts: More taxpayer money, few if any positive results.
Card Check: An effort to force unionization is underway.
Defense budget: We grow weaker.
Economy: Stimulus promises made few if any results.
Foreclosures: continue.
Healthcare: Trying to put the inefficient government in control.
Hate crimes: This blow to freedom is being pushed.
Israel: our long term friend is being abandoned.
Inflation: This insane spending has to result in inflation.
Largest budget ever: much spending, no results.
Marriage: being weakened.
Tax cheats: many in the administration.
Taxpayer friends: not nearly enough in government.

LINDEN'S LIFE
Prayer breakfasts at Plainfield Christian on Friday and Kingsway Christian on Saturday. I had some things that I needed to take care of and missed the writers group meeting. In addition, I discovered that a group of singers performance which I thought was on Sunday was actually on Saturday and I missed it too. Nuts.
Sunday brought church and Sunday school attendance. Shortly after I arrived back home, Julie called. She had taken two-year-old Jade for a swimming lesson and called from her car because the power had been out at her home since a storm on Friday. They lost a bunch of refrigerated food.
Shortly after the talk with Julie ended, Brian called. Since I had talked with him several times recently, nothing much new…just a “Happy Father’s Day” call. My kids make me the luckiest father in the world.

REACHING OUT. I normally contribute modestly in a number of areas. Now I also contribute a portion of book sales income to new or enhanced areas of support. I also accept contributions for this effort. I was so pleased with the 2009 results that I’m expanding the effort in 2010. New or expanded recipients in 2010 include:
