So, after a couple of years I've decided to get back into the blogosphere. I've switched services from Blogger to Wordpress and I don't really feel like transferring my old content over so if you'd like to check out my old blog just click here.

I lift up my eyes to the mountains- where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. |

It is about time. This boy has been unjustly held by his step-father in Brazil for the past 5 and a half years! I will be surprised if his real dad actually gets to take him home. His step-father has been pretty persistent about filing appeals at just the right time to keep the boy in Brazil.
It is hard to imagine that a judge didn’t allow a motion to have this case thrown out of court. A rancher along our southern border has been rounding up illegal immigrants for about 10 years as they cross his property and turning them over to authorities. About 5 years ago he rounded up 16 illegals, and like any land owner might do, he held them at gun point until authorities could arrive. Now these illegal immigrants are suing him for 32 million dollars for infringing upon their civil rights. Absolutely absurd! It sounds to me like the rancher is the one who deserves the money. In the 10 years since he started hauling illegals off he’s rounded up over 12,000 of them. The US Government should be paying him!

The video below is the story of David Goldman and his quest to have his kidnapped son, Sean, returned to him. His son was kidnapped by his wife and taken to Brazil. The most appalling part of the story is the fact that the Brazilian authorities are not helping the situation. They are completely ignoring international law and the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction. This whole situation is just appalling. I cannot imagine what I would do if my daughter was kidnapped and I knew where she was and I couldn’t get any help to get her back.

David Goldman, with the help of New Jersey Representative, Chris Smith, was able to see his son on 9 Feb 2009.
