Touted as one of the "fathers of talk radio," Rusty Humphries has become one of my favorite talk show hosts of late. His show is on one of our local Dallas stations, and I get to listen--and learn--while drifting off to sleep. |-) Rusty has given many political "predictions" that have come to pass, especially where Obama and our liberal Congress is concerned...as well as liberals in general. He also has excellent guests, like Andrew Breitbart, Joseph Farrah of WorldNetDaily, as well as many political insiders. I always enjoy hearing from the many black conservatives he has on as guests. Nice to know that not everyone drinks from the same water trough.
Rusty's views and opinions have also gotten him into hot water. For awhile, he and his family were in hiding as they had actually had death threats for things he had said about radical Islam. So obviously, he's doing something right! But this week, Rusty put the Obama healthcare issue into perspective for us "lay people:" It's like being forced to board a giant boat...we don't know anyone else on board, we don't know where we're going--no one knows where the boat is going--it's made up of faulty equipment and has a questionable crew that refuse to answer any questions: they won't tell us where we are going, they won't tell us where the life boats are located or the life jackets. Not only that, it's a one-way trip, so there's no way back once we get to wherever it is we're going. Some trip, huh?
Basically Rusty said that if we aren't able to get rid of some of the Liberals in congress and vote in some Conservatives in 2010, and if we can't stop that bill, it'll be OVER--we'll never be able to un-do health care reform--we'll be stuck with it from then on, because it will have passed into law. Our children and grandchildren will be forced into a European style health system that DOES NOT WORK, actually costs everyone more, doesn't give nearly the level of care we have currently, and embraces a culture of death (i.e., suggesting to parents of babies with defects that they be left to die, or to old people that life is no longer worth living, and to take themselves out of the equation because they've become a burden).
I remember reading a book many years ago that talked about these very scenarios, and thinking to myself, "like that could ever happen!" And here it is, happening right before our very eyes, and in my very own lifetime. It's breathtaking...and Christian believers can SEE the breadcrumbs being laid out...we see how the stage is being set for the antichrist's arrival. The scene is not yet completely "set" but the elements--polically, socially, technologically--are there. It's mind-numbing to realize the speed at which everything is happening in the world.
