In the past I've brought up Agenda 21 (here and here). Today, Dan Riehl has provided links to videos detailing the rise of the concept of "sustainable development" from its UN roots, and the dangers this poses to our liberty.
I know today many of you are planning on kicking back, eating guacamole or hot wings (or both), and watching the Super Bowl. Take a few moments and bookmark these sites. Plan to spend 30 or 40 minutes every day in reading and viewing material that will help you connect the dots. And don't forget the power of prayer.
Have a fun day and may the the best team win...

Conservatives and The Butterfly Effect, or, Why Chaos Is Better Than Control!
History has shown us that one person with an idea can change the planet. Whether the planet changes for good (Jesus, Galileo, Bach, Jane Austen, Einstein) or ill (Napoleon, Marx, Houston Chamberlain, B.F. Skinner) depends on the idea. In the 1959 epic Ben-Hur a Roman commander wonders aloud how one fights an idea, “especially a new idea.” (In that scene he is referring to the preaching of Jesus.) The character Messala replies that the only way to fight an idea “is with another idea!”
Today Conservatism must remind America of an idea that is being drowned in the socialist cesspool of conformity, passivity, and ceding power to government. As socialist group-thinking tries to convert ever more people to letting a central power address ever more things, which can and should be handled without government interference, this idea tragically fades from us daily.
The idea is that you –the single individual – have the freedom and power to change the Universe for good…or for ill. read the rest at Red State
Yesterday I had good intentions to link to a great post by Ruby Slippers but, as we ADD'ers are prone to do, lost my focus. It may have been a shiny object...
But not to worry. Today Ruby has posted a wonderful article "Barack the Blameaholic Falls Off the Wagon." which was the first thing that caught my eye this morning (must have been shiny)
Ruby, whose real name is the rather angelic sounding Mary Sue, which goes along with her rather angelic blond appearance, is testimony to the fact that blond jokes are just that - jokes. My advice? Don't mess with Mary Sue!
This speaks to real hope...the closing 2 minutes of Sarah Palin's speech
Perhaps before you settle down for the big game today, you could gather your guests around to watch the entire Sarah Palin speech. Once again, Left Coast Rebel has done a wonderful job of providing us the video.
A Special Prayer Request
Dean, a good friend of ours in Tennessee, is having surgery for a malignant kidney tumor on Thursday, February 11. The doctor is 95% sure they will be able to remove all of the cancer. Nevertheless, prayers are always helpful.

You are so sweet Adrienne, thanks so much for that link and your very kind words. I will keep your friend Dean in my prayers. I have a natural affinity for anyone still Catholic and conservative, so their prayer requests get high priority.
Prayers for Dean...I'm a SuperBowl agnostic...or maybe atheist...it doesn't exist as far as I'm concerned, but then again, I'm just plain weird and out of it!
Blameaholic...that's just right...is there a rehab center we can send His Highness to? (Bad English, I know)...
He needs something drastic, no doubt about it!
MarySue (is it MarySue without a space?) - I hate to misspell names...
Thanks...
Nazareth Priest - I hate football (so does hubby) or most any televised sports. I like to play tennis and that's about it. But - if others want to kick back, eat chips, and screech at the TV - that's ok with me.
I would even go to a Super Bowl party if I knew there would other like-minded souls to sit in the kitchen and talk...
