Kevin Lee: My 2 Cents
E Day - March 2, 2010
I know you've all been anxiously awaiting my decision for Texas governor. So without further adieux, and even though my mother says I'm throwing my vote away,(sorry Ma) I'm going with Medina. I was almost persuaded to vote for Perry because I read that Medina was opposed to the Federal Marriage Amendment in the Free Voters Guide.
However, her website says "Debra supports the Texas Marriage Amendment Act of 2005, which clearly defines marriage as "a union between a man and a woman". However, as there is no provision in the US Constitution for the federal government to be involved in marriage, it is and should properly remain a state sovereignty issue to be resolved by the states."
I can't keep voting for the same old politicians and expect different results, so I am voting Medina.
The Dallas Morning News online has a voters guide that compares candidates side by side here.

Why People Aren't Homosexual - February 17, 2010
This is from an article written by Kevin Carden over at Hymn Lyrics.Org

Homosexuality: Danger and Deliverance
Even though the Bible never says or suggests that homosexual behavior can be attributed natural causes, such as heredity or genetics, there are many who claim that sexual orientation is a trait that we are born with and have no control over it. I personally have a difficult time accepting this theory for several reasons.:
· The concept of homosexuality goes against the grain of natural order. Men and women are not anatomically designed for sexual intercourse with members of the same gender. Without going into unnecessary detail, parts of the body that are not designed for sexual activity are a necessity for homosexual intercourse. Homosexual intercourse is merely mimicking the act of heterosexual intercourse, rather than something new all-together. If homosexual orientation was a genetic trait on the same order of eye color or height, it would appear to be more of a defect rather than an normal hereditary trait.
· Homosexual relationships cannot produce children. The primary function of sexual intercourse is to produce an offspring. Two men cannot produce a child, nor can two women. The primary purpose of intercourse cannot be achieved through a homosexual relationship. Again, if this orientation is genetic in nature, it appears to be more of a defect than anything else.
· Animals and other wildlife are not homosexual. Animals generally follow the natural order of reproduction, a male with female to produce an offspring, although scientists have been able to mutate the genes of certain creatures to yield a homosexual behavior. 7 But it is to be noted that the homosexual trait created by scientists was within a long list of other traits that they were also able to manipulate, and all of those traits were disadvantageous in nature (flies born without wings, etc).
· If evolution is true, homosexuality would be counterproductive. If homosexuality were a normal genetic trait, then evolution is moving in a terrible direction. Since homosexuals are unable to reproduce, the worldwide births would decrease dramatically as homosexuality increased. And eventually, if homosexuality were to be the dominant sexual orientation around the world, the human race would be in danger of extinction. That is, of course, unless the homosexual persons were forced to use egg and sperm donations in order to keep the species going. However, that would again be mimicking the act of heterosexual behavior in order to achieve the desired result. When you find yourself in an unnatural activity and forced to do something completely natural in order to survive, hopefully that will be the realization that something is not right.
· Finally, if there was a homosexual gene, how would it be passed from generation to generation? As mentioned earlier, homosexual partners do not reproduce, and thus they cannot carry their "gay gene" on. A homosexual male could donate his sperm to a homosexual female's egg, and hypothetically produce a homosexual child, but that's not a very common practice nor is it where most homosexuals arise. The majority of homosexuals come from two heterosexual parents, because only heterosexual intercourse can produce a child.
There is hope...
What now? If you are a homosexual and you desire to be free of the burdens, guilt, and pain, then you do have a hope. If you have never accepted Jesus Christ as your personal Savior from your sins, I would plead that you do so. Pray a simple prayer like this: "Dear God, I have lived my life without you. I have done many things in my life that I know are not right and that you do not approve of. Today I want to accept your Son, Jesus Christ, who You gave as a sacrifice for my sins. Please come into my heart and help me to begin following Your will. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen." If you just prayed that prayer, welcome to the family of God! However, if you are a Christian and have been born again, but still struggle with the temptations of homosexuality...you are still not without hope. God understands your situation and will give you the resources to fight this evil. Ask for forgiveness of your sins frequently, and pray for guidance on how to avoid being tempted in the future. Seek out accountability partners, Christian counseling, and church staff. Read your Bible often, especially the chapters that deal with temptations. Remember Joseph and how he avoided committing sins with the mistress? The Lord will always be at your side helping you become free of the homosexual lifestyle. It will never be an easy fight, especially with such a foe as the devil. But we can be confidant in our Savior. He defeated death, and through Him we have been made more than conquerors in all things.

Remember Our Troops - February 15, 2010
I would just like to remind everyone to continue to pray for the troops. Especially those on this new offensive who are fighting with one hand tied behind their back. God Bless Them and Protect Them...
The Truther Will Set You Free - February 15, 2010
I finally got around to listening to the Beck/Medina interview and I’m afraid Medina has just shot herself in the foot. When Beck asked her about being a 911 truther, Medina began dancing around the question. Which to me made her sound too much like a career politician and allowed Beck to make her look like a conspiracy kook. But his lame metaphorical homo humor left me wondering who was the kook.
I hate it when politicians avoid giving a direct answer to a direct question. It makes them look dishonest.
On her website she says in response to the Beck interview “I have not seen any evidence nor have I ever believed that our government was involved or directed those individuals in any way.” Why didn’t you just say that in the first place? I’ve listened to the interview repeatedly and it sounds like Medina may buy into some of the 911 conspiracy theories.
I’ve seen some of the 911 conspiracy videos and I just can’t accept that our government, as corrupt as it is, has sunk to the level of depravity that it would take to allow thousands of Americans to die for a political agenda. Then again they don’t mind sacrificing soldiers?
Anyhoo, I don’t believe Medina is some radical conspiracy kook but I think she probably just lost any chance she had of winning. It’s a shame too because she seems to be a true conservative on the issues. Will I vote for her? I don’t know yet. Even a kook might be better than politics as usual…

God Gives Al Gore The Finger - February 12, 2010
I can't believe people are claiming this is caused by global warming!
The same people who claim there is no God...
and that we evolved from cosmic goo...
and that oil is bad...
and killed the two stroke engine...
and caused the price of vehicle inspections to quadruple...
and energy prices to rise...
and have our liberties in a stranglehold...
But God is still in control and Jesus is coming soon!

I Can't believe It - January 20, 2010
Sarah Palin is campaigning for Rick Perry
Maybe She doesn't know there is a true conservative in the race? Maybe She doesn't think Medina has a legitimate chance? Maybe She isn't rogue anymore?

Medina, "Eliminate Property Taxes!" - January 19, 2010
Medina is right, Perry paints a rosey picture of Texas but... He lies.
Ad Wars - January 19, 2010
Perry and Hutchison are at each others throats and I have to agree with both of them...neither is fit to be Governor! Although I think Perry is a little better than Hutchison, I believe they are both sellouts!
That is why I'm voting for Debra Medina... who by the way is up in the polls and has been invited to join round 2 of the debates.
Here is Medina in the first debate saying we need to nullify the EPA! Yeah Baby!!!
