Tough Love Verses Gentle Love


On this week's BOB SIEGEL SHOW:

As a general rule, I treat atheists and other skeptics with respect. On the other hand, is there a place for what Christians sometimes call "tough love?" I believe there is, and in the gospels we see examples of Jesus using both. It all depended upon whom He was talking to. Notice the difference between the gentle, merciful way in which Jesus treated the woman caught in adultery and the extremely harsh comments aimed at the Pharisees. (Matt 23)

What kinds of occasions call for alternative approaches? This discussion (inspired by some atheist blog comments) is one of many themes explored.

ALSO...

Theology:


-Are there historical testimonies of Jesus outside the New Testament?
-Will Elijah return before the Second Coming of Christ?
-Was John the Baptist a reincarnation of Elijah?

Current Events:

-Does the constitution really give the Supreme Court the right to interpret the constitution?
-Does the constitution really teach "separation between church and state?"

Pop Culture:

Film critic, Mark Bubien joins us to recommend some of his favorite recent releases on Blue Ray, concentrating on films with Christian type messages.

Finally:

I received an E Mail asking me why I don't run for public office. Hear my response, as if it's keeping any of you up at nights:)

Freedom? Oh, You Mean That Old Fashioned Idea? The Bridge To the Past?


Have you heard the latest?  In the midst of all this talk about Global Warming and Health Care, the House just passed another modest, unknown, bill. It slipped through as easily as "Hate Crimes" (that other freedom suppressor which nobody is talking about). You're going to love this one. It gives our government the right to seize large corporations, not merely companies asking for a bail out, mind you, ANY COMPANY THEY WANT!!!  Well, OK, not just any company. First they have to deem its potential failure as being bad for our economy. Whew! What a relief!  For a moment there, this news story had me worried. Our administration and congress have shown such skill at assessing economic health, I just can't wait to hear what objective criteria they will assemble to to play a game of musical corporation chairs.

Merry Christmas!  This Jack in the Box passed the House. Now Obama is trying to encourage the Senate to wind the music and wait for the POP!!!

Change you can believe in.
  I'll say this: He was speaking the truth. Unfortunately, it's change Thomas Jefferson and John Adams would not have believed in.

It Never Pays To Be On Time: Vol. 2


NOTE:  Although this article is a self contained story, you might enjoy the companion piece which came first:

It Never Pays To Be On Time: Vol 1



Everybody knows how long it can take to park at Disneyland. Well, if not everybody, at least my girlfriend Nancy and I know. Since we have those cheaper, annual passes, the drill is quite familiar to us. On this crisp, chipper morning, we planned on arriving at the "Mickey and Friends" parking structure with enough time to catch the shuttle and arrive at least close to when the Happiest Place On Earth opened its pearly gates.

Much to our irritation and disappointment, all Disneyland parking was closed, with Magic Kingdom traffic being redirected through all kinds of downtown Anaheim streets on a red cone labyrinth that rivaled Mr. Toads Wild Ride.

Like cattle, we (along with hundreds of other automobiles) were herded into the parking garage of a hotel where we were instructed to wait for a shuttle bus back to Disneyland. If you're guessing right now that Nancy and I were curious enough to ask what was going on, then you too, (as Jeff Foxworthy would put it) are smarter than a 5th grader.

Anyway, here's the story: Disneyland anticipated a very busy day and made a special deal with this hotel because they were expecting an unusually large crowd, so big, their own parking structures would not be able to hold all the cars. And so, for the sake of those poor, unfortunate,
fashionably late pilgrims who might arrive in the middle of the day, Disney's parking garages were kept empty and waiting.

It was an extra half hour to be redirected to the hotel, followed by an additional half hour waiting around for the bus with its drive back through traffic.  An hour delay because of our bright idea about showing up early! Exactly why they chose to make things easy on the tardy and punish those who were dumb enough to get there on time, I'm sure I don't know. Perhaps they were taking their cue from typical, present-day America, which seems to reward and bail out every single citizen (or non citizen) except the responsible.

Oh well. Next time I'll follow the example of Alice and Wonderland's white rabbit. I guess by being late, that crafty old critter knew what he was doing after all.

It Never Pays To Be On Time: Vol 1


This morning, I needed to get a checking account problem straightened out, not the kind of simple situation a teller could take care of. No, this needed one of the heavy guns, somebody from Customer Service. Ever since my bank was bought out by another bank, morning problem solving became as common as the chirping of birds and the dew on a windshield. Because this little scenario had already been repeated with more performances than Broadway's  Le Miserables,  I could easily estimate my time sitting in one of those comfortable chairs while some five people were ahead of me. Determined to beat the system, I awakened early, drove to the local branch (which opens at 9:00) and arrived at 9:02. Only one person was ahead of me. Good job, Bob. No waiting for five people this time. And then, looking around, I realized that only one of the Customer Service representatives was even in yet and he (alas) was assisting the first fellow who, evidently, pressed his face against the door at 8:49, gambling that one of their watches would be a minute fast. Naturally, this "earlier bird" had thirty minutes worth of problems, leaving me with the same, obligatory half hour wait.

No, I was not delayed by a bunch of customers. Instead, I had to wait around for all the bankers to roll in.  Somewhere, in some shady board meeting around a nice, polished, oak table, careful, delicate strategy figures out how to make our banks just as inconvenient to their customers as is humanly possible.

Financial institutions aren't quite as fun as a day at Disneyland, are they? Then again, maybe they are. Don't miss Part Two:

Sure., The Front of The Dollar Bill Looks Good. Now, Turn It Over!


Obama is planning now on using some of that stimulus money to help out small businesses. Sounds good. In fact, it sounds great! Forgive me for being just a little cautious.  After all, this man is an expert at sounding good. Free health care sounds good until we notice the House version of the bill putting people in jail if they do not purchase this "free health care."  Helping  the auto industry also sounded good until the government started telling GM what kinds of cars they could build or not build and how environmentally friendly they had to be. (Translation: how small they had to be)  And yes, helping the banks sounded good until the government placed its nose into discussions of various bank loans; who to give them to and whose unpaid mortgages to renegotiate. (the kinds of shenanigans, incidentally, which sunk our economy in the first place through the fun help of  Freddie, Fannie, ACORN, and other Looney Tunes)

So now, the freest businessmen in our country; small, independent entrepreneurs, will be in that same unenviable position of owing Obama some gratitude.

A crisp, green dollar bill always feels like manna from above until we read the fine print on the back. No, I don't mean that pyramid with the eye which has provoked so many conspiracy theories. I mean the microscopic fine print saying, "Now the government will start controlling your modest little Mom and Pop business." Sweet!

I'm reminded of the first scene in The Godfather, when Vito Corleone agreed to grant a favor:  "Some day, (and that day may never come) you'll be called upon to perform a small service. But until that time, consider this a gift on my daughter's wedding day."

If Only He Was Harry Houdini


Harry Reid claims that anyone opposing health care can be compared to people who did not want to end slavery.

Harry, didn't you listen to Nancy Pelosi's tearful little speech about toning town the rhetoric?  Oh well. Don't worry about it. Nancy didn't listen to her own speech either. She was the one who compared health care protesters to Nazis.

Of course, to be fair, the Dynamic Duo meant well. They were merely trying to provoke "bi-partisanship." Hmm...If only Harry Reid were Harry Houdini, he could magically end all this nasty disunity. But then, it would mean he had succeeded in making himself and Nancy disappear.

Atheist Sign Gains Enough Life To Rival The Living Christmas Tree



On this week's BOB SIEGEL SHOW:

The atheist sign in San Diego, mixed with my brief comments in The San Diego Union, has morphed into a controversy all over the Blogosphere around the country. One atheist blog alone had 500 comments and there were many other such blogs. Not all atheist responses were negative. For example, attached as a comment to my Op-Ed piece for San Diego News Room, you can read a surprisingly positive comment from an atheist.

In any event, many comments, positive and negative are read over the air as we devote the high majority of our show to a very provocative subject.

Birthdays Are Great, But When I Was a Little Younger, They Were a Little Happier


This week, I turned 56. Remember when you were little? Your birthday was exciting for several reasons; the presents, of course, along with cake and ice cream and parties. But you were also thrilled, and I mean literally ecstatic to be a year older.  Try introducing a 6 year old as 6 and watch them correct you, "Six and a half!"  Flash forward. When that same person is 21, but they still get carded at a bar, they find it insulting. Would they believe us if we told them that when they turn a little older, they will love being carded?

Alas, when we are young, we want to be old and want to look old. Then, what happens when we do get older? We want to be young again, or at least hear people telling us we look young, nutty human beings that we are, unable to ever be satisfied.

This year, my kids were particularly kind to me, telling me that I still look young, with my full head of dark hair. (Well mostly dark but I'll take whatever bone they throw me.)  When I was 30, everyone told me I looked 20. When I was 40, everyone told me I looked 30. When I turned 50, everyone told me I looked 40. Hmm...Someday I'll be 100 and everyone will tell me I look 90. So, big deal. Somehow I have a feeling the difference will be negligible.

Birthdays. Time to remember the hope of the resurrection where we will look as we looked at our best, even better, and for all of eternity
. No, God does not support vanity. But God does offer hope.

KUSI News has also expressed interest in the story, and on my radio show this week, I will spend a good deal of time reading critical E Mail comments from atheists and responding to them over the air.

Another of Those Marvelous Consistencies


In an earlier blog this week, I commented on how Chris Matthews has turned against his hero, Obama. The article is linked below, so, I will not need to repeat the points I made earlier.

Of course, Matthews is not alone. Many Leftist pundits, including the self-righteous bleeding heart, Michael Moore, are literally pillaging the president for being willing to send more troops into Afghanistan.

Interesting: When people on the Left want to criticise Obama, (and some of us were wondering if we would live to see the day) they do so because the issue of war is important to them. That's fine. I do not agree with their position on war, but they are certainly entitled to their opinion and I can respect their opinion.  I do find it interesting, however, that when people on the Right criticise the very same  president for different reasons, the Left immediately writes it off to "racism." In their minds, we couldn't possibly be concerned about the free market, or the unborn child, or a weakened country in the face of Islamo-Terroirsm. Oh no! If anyone from the Right expresses an issue of concern, he is only masking his true agenda; an unwillingness to appreciate an African-American president! Period! End of conversation! It cannot possibly be anything else!

You see? The Left speaks out of thoughtfulness and careful reflection. The Right is incapable of such nuanced skill. Or so the Left thinks, in the Mother Goose fantasy world they continue to live in.

Do you want to know what's really sad?  How many in our country have even paused to notice this inconsistency? The outspoken Leftist talking heads seem completely unaware of it. They just blissfully press on with their arrogant smiles, unaware of any hypocrisy.

Congratulations Matthews!

Who Said Golf Wasn't An Exciting Sport?


Who said golf wasn't an exciting sport?  Certainly not tabloid news. Ooops...I meant to say "mainstream media."  Actually, this is all over the new media as well (Fox, Talk Radio, etc.)

OK... I may as well follow the pack and offer my own entry. Here we go.  This is what I have to say about Tiger Woods finding himself under a new and different kind of spotlight:

N O T H I N G!

Absolutely nothing! This is between him and his family. It's none of my business. It's none of your business, and let me break it to the media: Just because the man is a famous, talented, golf celebrity, that doesn't automatically make it your business either! You may fall back on the tired cliche', "People have a right to know," but frankly, that's a lot of hogwash. The people only have a right to know when it's news that affects their lives. I don't mean to say this isn't important news. I mean to say this should not be considered news, period!

Apart from the privacy families deserve, it's not like there aren't one or two more important things going on in our country right now, matters that are history making, paths our nation has never traveled down before. And we're going to instead focus on Tiger Woods?  Sad low time for you, America.

A Man For All Seasons (All Directions Too)


What? You say you missed President Obama's speech at West Point last night, even though he broadcast at the same time he always does, during the dinner hour on the west coast, and prime time on the east coast, prehempting everyone's  favorite TV shows? Well, cheer up!  Your ol' pal, Bob is going to carry the day once again by offering some keen, nifty, rad, sweet cliff notes, and not just any cliff notes; the special "read between the lines" edition.

Here we go: Enjoy!

"I want to remind everyone about what an important war we have going on in Afghanistan. The Taliban harbored those horrible terrorists who authorized the attack on 9/11. And remember, should this dangerous, evil movement overthrow the government of Pakistan right next door, they will acquire a nuclear weapon and we know people like that would not hesitate to use such a weapon and this is simply not acceptable (although I'm not doing much about Iran's nuclear weapon in the hands of a man who denies the holocaust and threatens to wipe out all Jews). Therefore, because Afghanistan is the good war, instead of that mean and nasty and unnecessary war George Bush got us into, I am going to send in 30.000 more troops. But I will only send them in such a way that we make plans now about bringing them home. Hear that kids?  Good news and bad news! You're shipping out! You're coming home! We need a timetable, so our troops will definitely withdraw in 18 months, although, that will only begin the withdrawal. We won't complete the exodus without assessing the situation and I won't call it an exodus because that word sounds kind of Jewish and would offend our Muslim friends (not the ones trying to kill us, the others) but whatever we call it, we will leave (or not leave) so I guess that really isn't a time table after all, but it kind of sort of is. To those on the the Left, remember we are withdrawing in 18 months! Come on guys, chill out! So you're against this war. You can hang with me for 18 months, can't you? It's just 18 months for crying out loud! I mean, that's nothing! And for you on the Right, don't worry. We are only beginning to leave in 18 months! In fact (Heh Heh) We might not really leave anyway. You see, on one hand we need to increase our deployment, but on the other hand we need to decrease our deployment. There are always two hands, a left hand and a right hand and that's why I take care of both of my hands, especially since 18 months brings us just a few months shy of my reelection bid and I can read the polls at that time and see how people feel about the war before I start debating new challengers. Pretty cool how I figured out that 18 month number, isn't it?  And you all thought I just pulled a number out of a hat. A lot you know! But, anyway, that election is a long way off. Meanwhile, for now, let me tell you how I feel about the war: It's an extremely important cause because not only are our national interests at stake, the interests of THE ENTIRE  WORLD are at stake, so we absolutely, positively must defeat this enemy unless we have not defeated them in 18 months in which case we may or may not stay but even if we leave, they are not totally our responsibility anyway, despite the fact that they hate us and have sworn to destroy us even if they have to die in the process and receive 71 virgins taboot. After all, the peaceful Muslim governments of Pakistan and Afghanistan need to take care of the not so peaceful Muslims who have hijacked this great world religion founded by a man who taught Jihad. You see, instead of paying attention to what Mohammad actually taught, those Taliban and al-Qaeda dudes are twisting his words and preaching, well, I guess they're preaching what he taught, but remember, Islam is a religion of peace. And so, my fellow Americans, on the one hand, we send more troops.  On the other hand, we plan now to have less troops. And folks, just quit fighting about all this. Our country as been too divisive lately. Well , not everyone. Not the Democrats. Just those Republicans. If they would simlply do everything my way, we could stop all the bi-partisanship. Did I mention that I inherited their mess? Yeah, I inherited it from them and their leader, George Bush, the guy I ran against in the last election and the guy I'll run against in the next election. (McCain? Who's that?) Because if my strategy works in Afghanistan, I will take a bow, but if the situation is still problematic, remember, George Bush started this mess, although I agreed with him about the Afghanistan thing but we are doing poorly in Afghanistan because he brought us into Iraq and that will still be the reason we have problems over there in 18 months if we happen to have them.  Oh yeah. One more thing. Don't forget, America with all its faults has done more to help the world financially and militarily than any other nation. We are the best country in the world, even though I recently traveled around the world apologizing for what a bad country we were. But I had to do that. After all, our reputation was bad before I took office because, (like I keep telling you) I inherited this mess from GEORGE W. BUSH!!!!!!!!!!!"

As The Beatles Once Put It: "Listen! Do You Want To Know a Secret?"


If you strain your ear just a little, drown out all immediate noise in the room, and quietly listen, you can hear voices from across the ocean accompanied by joyful music and the sounds of utter jubilee. Try it! Just listen.  Hear them? It's the al-Qaeda operatives talking to each other: "Hey guys, all we have to do is hunker down for a while and lay low until 18 months pass. Then America will start withdrawing their troops. Meanwhile...We build and re-arm!"

Congratulations Matthews!


MSNBC Hardball host,
Chris Matthews was very critical last night of President Obama's decision to send an additional 30 thousand troops into Afghanistan.

Congratulations Matthews!  I didn't know you had it in you!  I thought this was the president who sent a chill up your whenever he spoke. I guess this time, you actually listened to the words instead of fawning over Obama's smooth speaking style.

Only one thing, Chris; (and I guess we really have to see the irony here) In this particular case, your objectivity is misplaced. Our president made the correct decision and even campaigned with a claim that Afghanistan was the essential war as opposed to Iraq. Weren't you paying attention back then? Oh, that's right, your leg was distracting you.

Don't get me wrong, there were other things Obama said last night that I have serious problems with, but such will be a subject for a different blog.

In the meantime, Matthews, this is a start:  I mean, wow! You are actually capable of disagreeing with Obama! Now, if you could only show some critical analysis toward his Marxist policies, or his world appeasing, America denigrating speeches, or the virtual euthanasia associated with health care, or his terrorist friends, or his racist pastor, or....Well, time does not permit me to list all of them. You get the idea.
