Straight Talk from Marshal Kane
A Kuwaiti Prince Publicly Embraces Christ, Denounces Islam
Fri, 13th January, 2012
The Iranian Christian News Agency, Mohabat News, reports the news from an Arabic Christian agency, Al-Haqiqah, that Abdollah Al-sabah, a Kuwaiti prince, has publicly denounced his Muslim faith and has embraced Christianity. The agency broadcasted an audio file where the prince declared, “First of all, I totally agree with the distribution of this audio file and I now declare that if they kill me because of this audio file, then I’ll go into the presence of Jesus Christ and be with him for all eternity. I’m satisfied with whatever they do to me, because the truth in the Bible has guided me to the right way.”
This proves that Christianity is alive in the Middle East, where it is able to reach even into a royal family. It would also seem to show that God continues His good work on earth, with or without the help of the United States. What do I mean by that statement?
Americans have become a coarse and vile people in many ways. Our language is abusive, we dress like clowns, we have no respect for law or morality. Our elected leaders abuse their powers and rule over us like elitists. Our economy is in a shambles, and we may well return Obama to another term in the White House, which should just about end us as a world leader. Yet God is able to continue His advances in the world. Something for the atheists to consider. They can hoot and holler all they want, but they really can't change a thing that really matters. God is in control, and there's not much they can do about it.
And that's more than just my opinion.

"Islam has always been a part of America's story."
Mon, 9th January, 2012
Barack Obama, during his Cairo speech, said: "I know, too, that Islam has always been a part of America's story."
I did some real hard thinking over that remark...came up with a few thoughts...
Were those Muslims that were in America when the Pilgrims
first landed? Funny, I thought they were Native American Indians.
Were those Muslims that celebrated the first Thanksgiving
day? Sorry again, those were Pilgrims and Native American Indians.
Can you show me one Muslim signature on the United
States Constitution?
How about the Declaration of Independence ?
Maybe the Bill of Rights?
Didn't think so. They ain't there...
Did Muslims fight for this country's freedom from England during the Revolution? No.
Did Muslims fight during the Civil War to free the slaves in America? No, they did not. In fact, Muslims, to this day, are still the largest traffickers in human slavery. Your own half brother, a devout Muslim, still advocates slavery himself, even though Muslims of Arabic descent refer to black Muslims as "pug nosed slaves." Says a lot of what the Muslim world really thinks of your family's "rich Islamic heritage," doesn't it Mr. Obama?
Where were Muslims during the Civil Rights era of this country? Not present.
There are no pictures or media accounts of Muslims walking
side by side with Martin Luther King, Jr. or helping to advance the cause of Civil Rights.
Where were Muslims during this country's Woman's Suffrage
era? Again, not present. In fact, devout Muslims demand that women are subservient to men in the Islamic culture. So much so, that often they are beaten for not wearing the
'hajib' or for talking to a man who is not a
direct family member or their husband. Yep, the Muslims are all for women's rights, aren't they?
Where were Muslims during World War II? They were aligned with Adolf Hitler. The Muslim grand mufti himself met with Adolf Hitler, reviewed the troops and accepted support from
the Nazi's in killing Jews.
Finally, Mr. Obama, where were Muslims on Sept. 11th, 2001? If they weren't flying planes into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon or a field in Pennsylvania, killing nearly 3,000 people on our own soil, they were rejoicing in the Middle East. No one can dispute the pictures shown from all parts of the Muslim world celebrating on CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and other cable news networks that day. Strangely,
the very "moderate" Muslims whose asses you bent over backwards to kiss in Cairo, Egypt on June 4th were stone cold silent post 9-11. To many Americans, their silence has meant approval for the acts of that day.
And THAT, Mr. Obama, is the "rich heritage" Muslims have here in America ...
I forgot to mention the Barbary Pirates. They were Muslim.
We can add November 5, 2009 - the slaughter of American
soldiers at Fort Hood by a Muslim major who is a doctor and a psychiatrist who was supposed to be counseling soldiers returning from battle in Iraq and Afghanistan ...
That, Mr. Obama is the "Muslim heritage" in America. You really are pretty stupid to comment like you did.
But that's just my opinion.

Leesburg, Florida, wakes up in a police state
Fri, 6th January, 2012
The people in Leesburg, Florida, woke up Tuesday morning to a chilling sight. Blue and white SUV's belonging to the Federal Protective Service, a branch of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, showed up at the Social Security Administration office in downtown Leesburg. at least one official was posted on the door with a semiautomatic rifle, randomly checking identifications. Other officers, some with K-9s, sifted through the building. According to one Homeland official in the Washington, D.C. office, Operation Shield is an effort that uses routine, unannounced visits by FPS inspectors to test the effectiveness of contract guards, or protective security officers -- "detecting the presence of unauthorized persons and potentially disruptive or dangerous activities."
Bet you didn't know that the federal government controls a Federal Protective Service, did you? Well, they do now. But we can relax, they are only detecting the presence of unauthorized persons committing disruptive and dangerous activities. I'm sure our federal government can be trusted to properly make the distinction between an unauthorized person and a regular citizen, one who is not engaged in disruptive or dangerous activities, right?
I for one am terrified at the ambiguous wording. "Potentially disruptive or dangerous activities." Who is the elected official or representative of the citizens of the United States who has the power to point a finger and pass judgement on a perpetrator of disruption? What exactly constitutes an "unauthorized" person? I thought at one time an illegal alien would fill that description but it ain't so, is it? Our benevolent government has already accepted illegal aliens as acceptable, so who's left? Or, if I was to engage in conversation someone outside of the Social Security office concerning the theft of Social Security money by the government, would that be a dangerous activity? Who makes the call? We are witnessing a complete breakdown in liberty and freedom. The people of America are now shackled and the chains are tightening every day. It's time to sharpen the pitchforks, folks, Prepare to march. But that's just my opinion.

Tebowing
Wed, 4th January, 2012
It seems like everybody wants a piece of Tim Tebow these days, including Tebow's fellow football players. According to Terrell Suggs, "With all due respect we don't need God on our sidelines. Once again God had to save Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos. He couldn't even give them two drives?"
That seems to me to be a pretty stupid thing to say. It shows Suggs' lack of knowledge about who God is and exactly what God's abilities are. If you are among the people who believes God created the universe and everything within it, that makes the entire universe God's personal property...including YOU, Mr. Suggs. It also means God is the sole owner of that sideline which you would like to ban Him from. Anyway, I really don't believe Mr. Tebow exhibits his love for God solely for the purpose of winning a football game. In fact, I don't think the purpose has anything to do with "winning the game." There are thousands of reasons every day each and every one of us has to show our gratitude to God for His love and blessings. The only thing different for Mr. Tebow that separates him from the majority of us is his willingness to exhibit that gratitude. Here's an example. How many of us take the time to thank God for the food we eat while dining in a restaurant? If I were to take a moment to say a proper grace and you were to witness it, would I be accused of "Tebowing" and you, as the offended, would claim that God has no place at the dining table? Win or lose, Tim Tebow has a lot to be thankful for. He made it through the previous game without serious injury, he is the quarterback of a professional football team, he has national recognition, he makes a lot of money. It seems to me that it is pretty stupid for atheists to complain about forms of gratitude to God. After all, they think He doesn't even exist, so why not just laugh it off? They can't do that though, and there's a sound reason why they can't. It's the same reason why the old cliches are true...there are no atheists in a foxhole, and there is a whold lot of praying being done on a crashing airliner. Give that some thought. But, that's just my opinion.

The Ant and The Grasshopper
Thu, 29th December, 2011
**** OLD VERSION ****
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.
The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.
Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.
MORAL OF THE OLD STORY: Be responsible for yourself !
**** MODERN VERSION ****
The ant works hard in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.
The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.
Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving.
CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food.
America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?
Kermit the Frog appears on The View with the grasshopper and everybody cries when they sing, 'It's Not Easy Being Green'. Occupy the Anthill stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the SEIU group singing, We Shall Overcome. Then Rev. Jeremiah Wright has the group kneel down to pray for the grasshopper's sake, while he damns the ants.
President Obama condemns the ant and blames President Bush 43, President Bush 41, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and the Pope for the grasshopper's plight.
Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reid exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay “his fair share,” ignoring the fact that ants, although only comprising 17% of the population, pay roughly 40% of the taxes, while grasshoppers typically pay no income tax. Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Discrimination Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer.
The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, not having enough remaining to pay his new retroactive taxes, has his home is confiscated by the President’s ‘Green Czar’ and given to the grasshopper.
The story ends as we see the grasshopper and his free-loading friends finishing up the last bits of the ant's food while the government house he is in, which, as you recall, just happens to be the ant's former house, crumbles around them because the grasshopper doesn't maintain it.
The ant has disappeared in the snow, never to be seen again. Rumor has it that he and his fellow ants have discovered other lands where business is welcomed and bugs still get to keep what they work so hard to produce.
The grasshopper is later found dead in a drug-related incident, and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the ramshackle, once prosperous and peaceful, neighborhood.
The entire Nation collapses bringing the rest of the free world with it.
MORAL OF THIS VERSION: Be careful how you vote in 2012.
Communism is still alive and well and living in Washington , DC.
But that's just my opinion.

Mr. Obama finds himself in an awkward situation...
Tue, 27th December, 2011
It seems American officials are evaluating an awkward request from Yemeni strongman and longtime U.S. counterterrorism partner Ali Abdullah Saleh. Seems Saleh wants to come to the good ol' USA to use our heathcare system instead of his own. I have to scratch my head over that. Why not eliminate the entire problem and just ship him off to Cuba? Liberals are always crowing about the wonderful medical plan enjoyed by their happy citizens and how we need to model American healthcare after theirs. Or, better still,may I suggest Ali Abdullah Saleh needs to come into the USA from Mexico. He wouldn't need a visa or anything. Then he'd even be eligible for free medical care, a driver's license, all the food he could eat, stay as long as he wants and even send a bunch of money home to the folks left behind!!! All his kids could get a free college education he wouldn't have to pick a single piece of fruit to get all those wonderful benefits. That's the least Obama could do for a fellow Muslim terrorist. But, that's just my opinion.
My interview with Mr. Santa Claus!!!
Thu, 22nd December, 2011
I've been out of town for a couple of days on a secret mission to the North Pole. I was invited to a very busy workshop in order to interview Santa Claus. He is very busy right now, but he graciously allowed me a few minutes of his time. Here are his comments:
Marshal Kane: Good morning, Mr. Claus. Ummm, may I call you Santa?
Mr. C: Good morning, Marshal Will. Sure, most people know me best as Santa.
Kane: Thank you, Santa. I know that this is your busy season, and I want to thank you for taking time out from your schedule to join us today.
Mr. C: My Pleasure, Marshal. Yes, this is usually my busy season, but things have been slowing down over the past few years, so it was no problem being here today.
Kane: Slowing down? How can that be? Environmentalists are always screaming about the rise in population in the world. I would think that you would actually be much busier each year.
Mr. C: That's true, the population is growing. But, unfortunately, so are the atheists and non-believers in the world. Did you know that I spent most of my summer this year defending myself in court for wishing "Merry Christmas" to a Shaman in Oklahoma? Oh, yes, he claimed that I offended him so bad, he accidently stomped on his peyote crop. He sued me for over a million dollars in damages. He won't have any mescaline for at least a year.
Kane: That's a sad story, Santa. But that must be just plum bad luck.
Mr. C: Oh, no, most every Liberal in America today wants a piece of me! Used to be, I had a side job that started a few weeks before the big day. I'd help all sorts of towns and villages set up their nativity scenes and my flying reindeer would be a big help wrapping lights around really tall Chrismas trees...oops, I'm sorry, please strike that from the inteview. I have an injunction against me. I can't say that any more. It's a "holiday" tree. I can't seem to remember to stop saying that word...
Kane: Santa, YOU can't say the word, "CHRISTMAS?"
Mr. C: Stop it, Will, you're not helping me at all here! I've been saying that word for thousands of years. Do you have any idea how HARD it is to try to change after all that time? There are people out there that follow me with microphones all day long, just waiting for me to mess up! Darned lawyers, anyway!
Kane: That's incredible, Santa! I had no idea...
Mr. C: You're not alone, Will. Most Americans have taken the birthday of Jesus for granted for so long, they don't know the sheer hatred that is out there. Did you know that my elves conducted a study last year, and they found that less than 10% of Americans are causing trouble, but the stupid government is stuck on this "diversity" crap, and now this small number of people carry more importance than the vast majority. It's enough to make me put them all on the "Bad Children" list.
Kane: Santa, why don't you get yourself a good lawyer, and sue them for defamation of character?
Mr. C: I looked into doing just that. Won't work. They have this organization called the ACLU on their side. They have so much money behind them, if you try to sue, they drag it out and cost you thousands and thousands of dollars. Do you realize, with this new raise in minimum wage the Libs are talking about, that if I have to pay that to my elves, I may not be in business next year anyway?
Kane: Don't you pay your elves better than that, Santa?
Mr.C: I can't! Do you have any idea what it costs me just to keep my factory warm at the North Pole? If we were allowed to pipe in petroleum from that wildlife refuge place, we could cut our heat bill in half. Then I could afford to pay them better.
Kane: Sounds like you have it tough up there, Santa.
Mr. C: You don't know that half of it! Last June, during an unusual warm spell, I get a knock on the door. This goofy woman comes storming into my living room, saying she represents PETA. Some animal rights group or something. She demands to see my barn where I keep my reindeer. Hey, I got nothing to hide. In fact, I'm pretty proud of my setup here, and Dancer says the food is always good. So, I made the mistake of taking her over to see the reindeer. As soon as she stepped inside, she starts coughing and sneezing. Says the air is filthy, and accuses me of trying to smother my reindeer. Before I can call her a nut, she slaps me with a subpoena to show up in court for cruelty to animals. She says reindeer were never meant to fly, and what I am doing to them has to stop immediately. She doesn't believe in magical deer, but says she's a Wiccan. Go figure...
Kane: What a horrible year, Santa. How can the people of America help you get over these problems?
Mr. C: Common sense. I just wish you people would use some common sense. Christmas should be a time of happiness and joy. It's the birth of Christ Jesus, ya know? Why is it no one seems to remember that this is the greatest gift anyone ever, EVER received? Nothing else under a Chistmas tr... uh, Holiday Tree, can ever be as important.
Kane: (Looking at my watch) Well, Santa, I want to thank you for joining us today. I know you have to get back to your work. Chrismas is only a few days away now!
Mr.C: Thank you, Marshal, for giving me a chance to speak my peace. Look, people, you don't know the slippery slope you are on right now. If you allow the miscreants in America to take Christmas away from you, what will they take next? You have had your freedom and liberty for quite some time. I know what the world was like before there was an America, and it wasn't a very nice place. Don't take for granted what you have! You better start fighting for what is right, and you better start right now! Time is a lot shorter than you think. (Glances around the room...) What the heck... MERRY CHRISTMAS, everyone!

Newt Gingrich or Mitt Romney?
Wed, 21st December, 2011
There is an old saying, never discuss politics or religion. I never put much stock in that idea, because if you don't have some moral foundation based upon a religious belief, you are probably going to be immoral and easily bribed. Electing a new leader for your church is not the same thing as electing a new leader for your nation, but both offices require certain amount of character and ethics. Obama has proven to be completely empty on both requirements.
Over the next several months we're going to be hearing an endless stream of complaints about Gingrich's so called baggage. This will hinge upon his making a lot of money managing a consulting firm after he left Congress as Speaker of the House, and his failings as a married man. The question I have to consider is, how much weight do we put to these things when we are talking about the very survival of our nation? Looking back over the past three years of broken promises, demagoguery, trashing the Constitution and destroying our economy, there is one promise he made that he kept to our dismay. That was his boast on the eve of the 2008 election: "We are going to change the United States of America." Most Americans today, myself included, sadly claim that they hardly recognize America as the same nation they grew up in. Obama has embarrassed our allies, crawled before our enemies, bowed to foreign dictators, and has no idea how to keep Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. Balanced against this we have a choice between Gingrich or Romney. Grover Cleveland, first elected as President in 1885, was publicly castrated over having fathered a child out of wedlock and to which he freely admitted to. While it is true that he was lacking in morals and character, he still went on to become one of our better presidents, from a political point of view.
Do we lament over the lack of having another Ronald Reagan to pull our chestnuts out of the fire? Sure, We can hope and dream all we want. But God has not seen fit to provide another man of his caliber at this time. So, we have to make do with what we have to choose from. Which is most likely going to be either Gingrich or Romney.
The recent television debates have provided Newt with a huge boost in the polls. But we must not forget his real accomplishments in the past as Speaker. He led the Republican Party to the first successful takeover of the House in 40 years and gave us our first balanced budget in those same 40 years. The left wing media applauded what they called the Clinton tax surplus, but we must not forget one important aspect to that surplus that the Democrats wish we would forget...all spending bills start in the House of Representatives, and Newt Gingrich was Speaker of the House.
Newt made some powerful enemies while serving as Speaker, and it cost him the position. But he also proved he could get things done the right way.
Now lets look at Romney. He has served as Governor of Massachusetts and he is a smoooooooth talker. But, what, exactly, did he accomplish as Governor? Can you think of one positive thing? I can't. So if you don't cause waves, you don't make enemies. But is that what we need at this most important time in our history?
And of course, there's the question of Romney's religious beliefs as a Morman. Personally, I have no problem with him following any religion he chooses, that's what freedom of religion is all about. But I do have the right to consider his common sense in his choice of which religion he practices. I can only speak from a personal perspective, and personally, I consider members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints to belong to a cult. I have a perfect right to hold that view. So, if I believe he belongs to a cult, I also have to question his common sense values. It seems illogical to me that someone who can belong to a cult could have the basic common sense necessary to be President of the United States.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and over and expecting a different result. If we reelect Barack Hussein Obama to a second term as President, and we expect a different outcome, than who is the real crazy one, us or Obama? I don't think it's hard to see that another 4 years of Obama will just about destroy us as a nation. And I also don't think it's hard to choose Gingrich over Romney as the next POTUS. But, that's just my opinion.
Over the next several months we're going to be hearing an endless stream of complaints about Gingrich's so called baggage. This will hinge upon his making a lot of money managing a consulting firm after he left Congress as Speaker of the House, and his failings as a married man. The question I have to consider is, how much weight do we put to these things when we are talking about the very survival of our nation?

Washington Congressional Ethics, or lack of them
Mon, 19th December, 2011
This just in...
WASHINGTON (AP) — Congressional investigators said Monday that four House members received VIP discounted loans from the former Countrywide Financial Corp., the lender whose subprime mortgages was largely responsible for the nation's foreclosure crisis.
Then it was also revealed a couple of weeks ago that there have been multiple cases where members of Congress have made outrageous gains in the stock market by trading on information available only to them. Ordinarily, that’s called “insider trading” and it’s highly illegal. Yet, somehow, Congress is able to get away with it. Added together, we see a pretty clear picture of why our nation is in the sad condition we have today. We are suffering from a severe case of ME-ism, and it is killing our nation.
Our founding fathers would be ashamed of us today if they were alive to see what we've allowed to happen to the government they bequeathed to us. Members of Congress were never intended to become permanent fixtures in Washington, they were never intended to be millionaire elitists who would become our masters. Congress was meant to be a place where patriotic Americans sacrificed a few weeks out of their lives to go to Washington, correct the nation's problems, make a small amount of money for their efforts, and go back to being regular working citizens. Not in today's America. The average Senator today considers himself the equal to Julius Caesar, and if you don't like it, well, they'll find a nice dark cell for you to rot in after they hang a hate crime verdict on your sorry butt. No member of Congress intends to live by the laws they enforce upon you. They are the elite! They are above the law. We're approaching the day soon when internet sites like this one will be forced to close down, along with taking our guns away from us, because weak, silent sheep have no political power. Washington knows what's best for you, so take your tyranny like a good little kid and keep your mouth shut. Keep your guns oiled and sharpen your pitchforks. We're going to be marching on Washington soon. But that's just my opinion.

What Happened to Herman Cain?
Sat, 17th December, 2011
Ya know, I really liked Herman Cain and the way he spoke and the ideas he had. Seemed to me he was just the feller we were all looking for to replace the dead wood presently taking up valuable space in the White House. Seemed funny to me how the whole media world jumped him like he was a fox in the hen house. Kinda got me to thinking on some past stories out of Washington. Stories like Sandy Berger and his sticky pants that suddenly scooped up classified documents and whisked them out to his car without his knowin' about it. Or Vince Foster, and how he showed up dead in a small park outside of Washington and how Hillary Clinton was the last one to see him alive. Or, there's Robert Bork, who became a feeding frenzy for the media to devour, and became a verb in Americanese...to be borked. And we can't forget Clarence Thomas and how he was torn to shreds by our reporting seekers of truth. Seems kinda funny how the media sorta picks and chooses who to crucify and who to give a free pass to, doesn't it? It would seem that Cain was considered to be a major obstacle to Obama's reelection plans, so the best thing to do would be to destroy him and his family. Worked awfully well, didn't it. Hmmmm...yep, same thing happened to Sarah Palin, too. Following the news over the past couple of days, looks to me like the present target for assassination in the media is ol' Newt. Isn't it funny how reporters seem to be having a field day pitting Romney against Gingrich. Kinda like killing 2 chickens with one quick draw. But, that's just my opinion.
My fellow lawman, Joe Arpaio
Fri, 16th December, 2011
Seems fitting to me that my first post should concern my fellow lawman, Sheriff Joe Arpaio, out in Maricopa County, Arizona. Joe was legally elected to be sheriff, and as such, he has the responsibility to uphold American law. Please note, I clearly said "American law," not Sharia law, which is being spoon fed to us by today's crop of lowlifes infesting the Capitol Building in Washington. For any of you not too familiar with geography, Arizona happens to be a border state with Mexico, and as such, Arizona has a horde of illegal invaders crossing into that state at an enormous rate. Joe's first responsibility is to protect the lives and property of the people of his county. It is not his job to put out a welcome mat to every drug smuggling, law breaking person from the great nation of Mexico. (Even the Constitution backs Joe up on that. Mr. Obama needs a lesson on Constitutional law.) What we are witnessing here is the reason why we as a nation were forced to accept such crappy legislation as hate crimes. It gives our beloved members of Congress complete control over who is found guilty of this shadowy misdeed. If the government wants to take you out, well, you are a racist bigot guilty of behaving in a mean manner. Washington knows Sheriff Arpaio is right, but he isn't following the game plan, so just hang a felonious title like "minority hater" or "racist" and boot him out. It works because too many people in America today are too lazy and too stupid to realize what's going on. The national election in 2008 proves that to be true. But that's just my opinion.
