our current faltering economy is a glimmer of hope if you will for our country to return to its biblical foundations and progress posted this clip from perry's interview and i think in america the. from time to time we have to go through some difficult times and and i think we're going through those difficult economic times for a purpose of the to bring us back to those biblical principles. you know you don't spend all the money you you you you work hard for those those six years and you could have that seventh year in the warehouse to take you through the hard times and and not spending all of our money you know asking for pharaoh to give everything to everybody and to take care of folks because at the end of the day. it's slavery and we become slaves to government. there is just so much and i'm going to clip that is so wrong i don't even know where to begin first of all the reference that he made to the pharaoh's definitely a biblical reference however as thing progress also pointed out today he may ingle the story a little bit in fact he actually just compared the u.s. government to a

biblically.t's an area where i'll let you, you've studied it more than i, even though we may disagree about it. there's a fundamental distinction. i think on this you'll agree with me, between how civil society, not religious society, not you as a pastor, not religions, but how the -- our civil society defined by legislatures in a civil context defines marriage and that is separate and apart from how you as a religious official can define marriage. do you understand that duality? >> no, i don't accept that duality because that tries to intimidate people like me to be silent and assume our views as we walk into the voting place or vote for somebody that somehow our views based by biblical scripture that we somehow kant carry that particular understanding into the voting booth. we happen to be in a democracy. you have the right to vote the way you do. i have the right to vote the way i do. and if in reality mine is framed by scripture then i have the right to vote that way. it's not separation of c

going through those difficult economic times for a purpose and that the to to bring us back to those biblical principles. you know you don't spend all the money you do you if you work hard for those those six years and you put up that seventh year in the warehouse to take you through the hard times because at the end of the day. it's slavery and we become slaves to government right those who would kill values unclear how many hail marys are included in governor rick perry's economic recovery plan and the very very ugly herman cain the pizza shop c.e.o. who wants to be. is that it just can't seem to papa's foot out is mouth when it comes to talking about muslims first cain said he wouldn't let a muslim serve in his administration of the law and he told glenn beck that you we want to consider hiring muslims but only if they took awhile to test the loyalty has the other religions are exempt from then after the republicans debate last night cain was asked whether his stance toward muslims is bigoted since he does not apply the same standard to other religions and this was his response. so it goes

this goes back to biblical times this is something that is not new. the role that women play as willing participants is an interesting conversation to have. because some of the women do they find you know beyonce said it girls run the world. because we can control men. men for whatever reason, women are a weakness for men particularly men in power. and you know, i think some women get off on that and think that is a way for them to gain power using their sexuality which i disagree with. now the other part, too, is yeah, the media what are we doing? we have 9.1% unemployment this is allegedly a recovery without jobs. people ask why people are paying attention because gas is 4.30 a gallon in this country and yet we are having a conversation 24 hours about representative wiener and what he is doing in the congressional gym. that is a problem. >> i think this is unfair to pin this on women that they have anything to do with this. look at mitch daniels and people were concerned if he ran for president his wife went off and had a different marriage and came

solomon and the biblical moses or something like that. crazy guy. our catcher was a wild man from australia and my best friend who was a pitcher was the first israeli to play division one baseball in the united states so i need a little cast of characters there. one of the guys who is probably my best friend or closest of the free but the in the league was jeff hastings and he was also a teacher. the first guy i met and the last guy i would say goodbye to with my friend, jeff. so in the book and mengin with myself not disparagingly we broke about being a red neck jubilees and that sounds kind of funny but my grandma was born on the working ranch, my mom is a jew from new york's we were brought up with books to expose us to both sides, both traditions, and there was a good thing i think they did it right but because of that coming to israel i got to not only explore why was as a pro but as a jew as well and that was important to me as well. so this next passage i'm going to read to you and this will be the last one about my first dinner in

what about a biblical understanding of what honest money is about? what about on as weights and measures and no paper currency and no federal reserve that destroys our currency? there is nothing immoral about our financial system and our monetary stem. this recent breakdown of our system is proof positive of it. it was predictable that there was a bubble out there. many predicted that it would come a that it would burst, and it did. but guess what? washington panicked and they said the end of the world is coming, so what we must do is tax the people and spend more money and are more money and print more money. that is going to get us out of trouble. but they did not ask, how did we get into this trouble? we spend too much, bar to much, and printed too much, and they thought that was going to help. it doesot work that way. honest money means that you cannot counterfeit money. there is a principle that you as an individual, or the government cannot do anything that you as an individual cannot do. but you are not allowed to counterfeit. why do we allow

. >> the biblical idea that something is up. what is up? do we look at climate change? >> some people are looking at climate change already, and they say that, you know, the more the earth warms unnaturally the more frequent storms we're going to have and the more extreme storms we're going to have. but i think this year in particular, while we've had a lot of extremes, a lot of records broken, tornadoes, floods as well as droutghts, its hard to pinpoint and say that. it's been above average in part of the south. mexico water temperatures have been very warm, so all the moisture has been coming up from the south, connecting with that dryer, cooler air from the north and then we have a very strong jet stream that's been riding in and bringing these storms in. so some of those things together with extreme drought kind of combine to make these major tornado outbreaks we've been having. tuscaloosa, they had five ef-5 tornadoes. >> i don't remember having so many back to back. is that an indication of something here? >> right now my thinking is it has more to do with the fac

[applause] ladies and gentlemen, that experiment changed the world. that experiment in believing in the american people transformed the world. i remind everybody that up until 1776, from the time of jesus christ, life expectancy in the world remained basically the same. but once america believe a new and let you rise to heights without punishing you are criticizing you for being successful, and tolerated failure, tolerated the fall of people so they could learn lessons of the could again succeed -- without that, we would not have changed, and life expectancy in the 200 years of america has doubled. why? cause we believe in you. what is at stake in this election ia president who believes that the

like brown belt, lodge grass, fort peck, rocky boys and elsewhere are confronted with a crisis of biblical proportions on account of the floods. when i was in montana last week i witnessed challenges that confront us and i'm working very hard to ensure that federal resources will be available for those most in need, which is a legitimate object of government, as lincoln observed, this sproefgs one more way to -- this provision is one more way to do that. also we have established a minimum 75% federal share under this bill to help indian tribes, tribes lacking sufficient resources to provide the typical matching share as is often the case in my home state of montana. i want to thank chairman boxer and ranking member inhofe for their leadership in working on the bill. i think the e.d.a. administrator john fernandez for coming to montana to meet with my constituents in butte to help our communities and state and the country. in closing, this is a good bill with backing from both sides of the aisle. i urge my colleagues to support it, support it strongly. we talk a lot about job growth, mr. pr

caller: i would like to discuss a biblical understanding of what this is leading to. there is one of the greatest times there is to be a real christian, not no fly by night. we are witnessing the people rising to deliver this deadly wound to this nation. once they are going to put together this so-called negotiation it is going to act like it is going to work for a while and then the deadly wound will be delivered and satan's childr children, cain's children understand that their father satan is on his way back. so they are doing everything they can to help usher in their father to tell them i have come to fly you away from here and all they are doing is getting ready for this here so-called rise-up. ost: thraeurpbg y-- thank you for the call. john has this comment. the tax hike on the rich would have generated $70 billion a year. this year's deficit is 22 times that. . we have a spending crisis. the other big story in the new york media is the gay marriage law signed into law over the by governor cuomo, passed last week. pride on the march as huge crowds to clear the

the second point biblically to the topic of the hearing is whether we can experience at this point in the u.s. cycle what is sometimes called expansionary contraction meaning if we were to cut spending for a sample immediately this would stimulate the economy and actually help with the growth directly. this is a policy for the simple fact the government of the united kingdom is attempting to pursue at this moment to the expansionary fiscal contractions from experience around the world, and this has been studied carefully by the monetary fund recently such contractions can under some circumstances be expansionary. but i do not think that we currently have those circumstances in the united states for three reasons. first this fiscal contractions to help the economy if they've restore confidence, if there is a high perceived risk of sovereignty or some other concerns weighed on consumer confidence oran the firm's quote foods but i will see interest of that right now. there are certainly plenty of problems with debt overhang from the credit boom and those are difficult problems and that i
