Sometime around either 1963 or 1964, one of the members of the Gospel Echoes left the group because she married an evangelist. As a result of Shirley Bivin's departure, that created a void for a soprano in the group. Buck and Dottie brought in Pat "Jones" Green to replace Shirley Bivins. However, there was a huge problem: Pat couldn't sing the parts. Buck and Dottie would be rehearsing with her the parts she was to sing time and time again. They rehearsed for weeks. They were scheduled to be singing in an upcoming concert with the Statesman and the Goodmans. On one particular day, Reba, Buck and Dottie's daughter, told them that she knew their songs and she knew how to sing them. So Reba demonstrated before Pat how the part was to be sung. It was through that process that Buck and Dottie recognized how talented Reba was in singing. Buck had finally asked Reba to consider singing as a replacement for Shirley Bivins for temporary. Reba consented. As it turned out, a replacement never was found and Reba sang with Buck and Dottie on a regular basis until sometime around the mid-70's. However, there was one change they needed to make. Buck and Dottie never was satisfied with the group titled, "Gospel Echoes." They decided since they were Rambos to call their group "The Singing Rambos." Then approximately 6 years later they shortened it and later called themselves "The Rambos." They started singing as The Singing Rambos around 1964 when Reba was 12. A year later, they recorded their first album with Benson Company in Nashville, Tennessee with the Heartwarming label. It was around 1964 that they moved to Nashville. I would guess they moved there because they wanted to be close to the recording studio where they recorded their albums. Over the years they would record several albums with Benson.
In 1964 The Singing Rambos were singing in churches at the time. They weren't a very well-known group yet. The Rambos sang in churches when they first begun as the Gospel Echoes in the early 1950's. However, they didn't sing nationwide in major concerts. Dottie started gaining publicity for her songwriting when Jimmie Davis paid Dottie $3000 dollars to publish her songs. Her songs were in demand when singers became aware of her songwriting. But the group as a whole wasn't a major southern gospel group until 1964 when The Singing Rambos visited the National Quartet Convention for the first time in Memphis, Tennessee. They came as spectators not expecting to sing. However, J.D. Sumner from the Blackwoods, if my memory is correct, said, "I hear you can all sing a little bit." Dottie replied, "They say we can sing a little bit. He said, "Let me hear you sing a little bit." So they stood of in a corner and sang acrapella and Sumner was impressed. So later the Rambos performed on a stage with a crowd of hundreds of people for the first time ever. They sang one of Dottie's brand new songs entitled, "He Looked Beyond My Fault and Saw My Need." The crowd enjoyed their singing. What was so marvelous about their singing was the fact the Rambos didn't use a bass singer in the group. Theory had it that in order to be classified as a genuine southern gospel group, you needed a bass singer. The Rambos consisted of Dottie, Buck, and Reba. However, they harmonized exceedingly well. They would become one of the biggest powerhouses ever in gospel music. Their sang using inverted harmony. They helped each other out. Whenever the lead became too high for Dottie, Reba could pick up where Dottie left off. There were times they would switch parts, too. They all sang together and it provided a melodious harmony among the trio.
As a result of their performance on the National Quartet Convention in 1964, they were booked at all types of singing conventions and other types of singing outlets. They would even sing in State Fairs. Life for the group changed. As a result of that convention, Buck booked concert dates for the next year for this new group.
Next week I'll be discussing the background behind two of Dottie's songs, "He Looked Beyond My Fault and Saw My Need" and "In the Valley He Restoreth My Soul."

Sarah Palin Says She's Not Running for President
Ending months of speculation, Sarah Palin says she won’t run for president - The Washington Post
Former Alaska Governor and vice-presidential candidate has made it official that she's not running for president. In a statement to reporters, the 2008 vice-presidential nominee says she won't seek the Republican nomination for president by already entering what is already a crowded field. Palin says she can be more effective by helping other Republicans win office "from the nation's governors to congressional seats and the presidency."
According to USA Today, most Republicans hadn't expected Palin to run for president since Republican Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota tossed her hat into the ring and soared to the top in the Iowa straw poll. However, Bachmann's appeal has dropped considerably since the Iowa straw poll. However, Palin's path to the Republican nomination would've been complicated by the presence of Texas Governor Rick Perry, as well as other candidates such as Michelle Bachmann, Ron Paul, Rick Santorum, and Newt Gingrich. Palin's entry would've more than likely split the conservative vote within the GOP.
Prior to being picked by Senator John McCain to be his vice-presidential nominee in 2008, Palin was an obscure first-term governor of Alaska. She was the surprise vice-presidential candidate in 2008 on the even of the 2008 Republican National Convention. Click on the above link from the "Washington Post" to read the full story.

Is House Speaker John Boehner the Polar Opposite of President Barack Obama?
ESPN Cuts Hank Williams From Monday Night Football Over Obama 'Hitler' Remark Fox News
Hanks Williams 'Hitler' comment on Fox and Friends
Country music singer Hank Williams Jr. was a guest on Fox News' "Fox and Friends" early morning show on Monday October 3, 2011. The "Fox and Friends" panel, which consists of Steve Doocy, Gretchen Carlson, and Brian Kilmeade, were asking Williams to give his views on the GOP candidates for the 2012 presidential election. One of the points he was making during his discourse with the panel was that it was a huge mistake for House Speaker John Boehner and Ohio Governor John Kasich to play golf with President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden earlier this year. He compared Boehner and Obama playing golf to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and German Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler playing golf. As a result, the liberal Progressive media went crazy and said that Hank Williams Jr. was comparing Obama to Hitler. That wasn't Williams' point. Williams was stating it doesn't make sense for supposed political enemies such as House Speaker Boehner and President Obama playing golf together when they supposedly don't have anything in common politically. He was saying both Boehner and Obama were polar opposites.
I want to draw your attention to the phrase "polar opposites." The online definiton of polar opposite is that which is conspiculously different in most important aspects. House Speaker John Boehner would like to make us think that the vision Barack Obama has for the country vs. the vision the Republicans have for the country is starkly different. The question I'm going to pose is are John Boehner and Barack Obama polar opposites? Are there any obvious distinctions between the Republicans and Democrats in Congress in general? Are there any distinctive differences between Boehner and Obama? When I pose that question I'm not referencing the political rhetoric that John Boehner uses during the election season, such as the 2010 midterm election. Boehner knew that he was just an election away from becoming House Speaker if the Republicans regained the House. He knew the political climate was ripe last year so he campaigned like he was a conservative who believes Congress needs to rein in federal spending. He also promised that Obamacare would be repealed as well. He even presented the document entitled, "A Pledge to America" stating what Republicans would do once they regained the House. He knows how to use political rhetoric. Consequently, you can't guage the sincerity of a politician just by words only.
In examining the actions of House Speaker Boehner, his actions tell a different story. John Boehner is a RINO. He's nothing but a go-to-guy for President Obama. Boehner is a go-along-to-get-along man. He hasn't done anything to stop the Obama administration's socialist agenda. When he replaced former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay as the new House Majority Leader in 2006, Boehner never stood for anything. He never opposed the excessive spending under the Bush administration. He just filled in a position. However, he wasn't influential as House Majority Leader.
Nevertheless, the House Republicans have a golden opportunity to defund several spending programs from the Obama administration. The House hasn't made any moves to defund Obamacare. Early this year Congress held a symbolic vote to repeal Obamacare, but Boehner and House Majority Leader Eric Cantor knew that Obamacare wouldn't be repealed with a Democratic Senate and a Democratic president. It's nothing but a game. The House hasn't used their power of choking off funding to drastically reduce the size of government. Right before the 112th Congress began its session in January, Boehner promised that he was going to start cutting spending by reducing Congress's budget. I seriously doubt that's happened. Congress has done nothing to eliminate wasteful spending. Instead, both Houses of Congress compromised and voted to raise the debt ceiling, create a supercommittee of 13, and make promises to reduce spending over a 8-10 year period. The Republicans are just going through the motions. They aren't serious in drastically reducing spending and the size of government. It just a good campaign issue for them.
Let me repeat the question I asked earlier. Is John Boehner the polar opposite of President Barack Obama? What does it mean to say that two individuals are polar opposites? If two politicians are polar opposites, then it means there are distinct differences between the two in both words and deeds. I hear a lot of political rhetoric from those who tout the conservative label on the Republican side, but their deeds don't indicate they're polar opposites. In order to be a polar opposite from another individual, your words and actions must be noticeably different. For example, since President Obama is a huge spender, then in order for Boehner to be a polar opposite of Obama, he must go the opposite direction and eliminate every unnecessary spending item on the budget. He will push House members to defund any spending bill that's unconstitutional. In other words, only necessry items will be on the spending budget. Instead, Boehner has caved in and compromised on his principles. Congress still continues its spending ways. The House has done nothing to choke off funding for Obamacare. That's not being a polar opposite. Mr. Boehner, if you cave in to your principles and become compromised, then how can you label yourself as being drastically different from President Obama? If you're doing nothing but bailing out the president, you're not standing up to your "convictions."
To give an honest assessment of both political parties, there's hardly any distinction between either political party. The Republicans stand for nothing. They have done nothing to stop President Obama's socialist agenda. I can recall how key Republicans were complaining about the health care bill that was pushed through Congress in 2009. The question I have to ask Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell is why didn't you Republicans stage a filibuster to block the monstrous health care bill from being passed? It's because you weren't serious about stopping the Obama-Reid-Pelosi agenda. You're co-conspirators with the Democrats. You Republicans are worthless. You'll allow President Obama and the communist Democrats to run roughshod over the American people and you Republicans won't take a decisive stand against the globalist agenda. You are all puppets on a string being manipulated by the puppetmasters. Polar opposites aren't stand-for-nothings. If I was a genuine conservative Republican Congressman and I stood true to my convictions, then I would stand out like a sore thumb to the socialists in Congress. I would utilize all my powers to stand against the forces of Nimrod that are trying to push a new world order agenda upon the American people. I would utilize all my resources to oppose that which is anti-God and unAmerican. I would do that providing I'm a genuine Congressman that stands up to my guns. Of course I'm not a Congressman and I don't think I have what it takes to stand. That's why I don't entertain the thought of running for Congress. You can't be a polar opposite unless you take a stand and take the hit. I believe a Congressman that is a genuine patriot will be ridiculed, ostracized, and probably even killed. Former Georgia Congessman Larry McDonald was one example of a Congressman that stood for his convictions and eventually he was killed on a plane fight to South Korea on September 1, 1983.
I don't believe that House Speaker John Boehner is ideologically driven. I for one don't believe if left to himself Mr. Boehner would ever push for and vote for the Affordable Care Act of 2010 or Obamacare. However, he's a go-along-to-get-along guy. He doesn't stand his ground and take his hits for what he claims he believes in. You can't cave in and become compromised and be a polar opposite. A polar opposite is just that--a polar opposite. A polar opposite stands their ground in both words and deeds. They'll do what it takes to stand for truth regardless of the personal costs. The tragedy today in Washington is there aren't any polar opposites. Both parties have their talking points but when it comes to substance, but there's no substantive difference between either party. John Boehner sadly is a compromised politician. It's time for a Republican to oppose him in next year's primary in Ohio's 8th Congressional District.

Apple CEO and Founder Steve Jobs Dies at 56
Apple's Steve Jobs Dies At 56 Fox News
Former CEO and Apple Founder Steve Jobs with a laptop (Courtesy of Fox News)
Former Apple CEO and founder Steve Jobs died Wednesday of pancreatic pancer. He had been in poor health for some time. He invented and masterfully marketed gadgets that transformed everyday technology such as the personal computer, ipad, and ipod, to name a few. Apple gave the announcement that he died but didn't give a specific cause. They said he died peacefully, according to a statement from family members who were present. Jobs had battled cancer in 2009 and had a liver transplant in 2009 after taking a leave of absence for unspecified problems. In January of this past year he took another leave of absence, his third and then in August he officially resigned. He resigned as CEO six weeks ago and handed over the reins to his hand-picked successor, Tim Cook.
Jobs began Apple with a high school friend in a Silicon Valley garage in 1976. He was forced out a decade later and then returned to the helm in 1997 to rescue the fledgling company. During his second stint it grew into the most valuable technology company in the world with a market value of $351 billion. Most of that wealth was created since Jobs returned to Apple in 1997. He transformed computers from a hobbyists' obsession to a necessity of modern life in work and at home. He also played a major role in the cellphone and music industries as well.

Democrat Tomblin Edges GOP's Maloney In West Virginia Governor's Election
Democrat Tomblin Edges GOP's Maloney In West Virginia Governor's Election Fox News
Acting West Virginia Governor Earl Ray Tomblin win's Tuesday's gubernatorial special election.
Acting Governor Earl Ray Tomblin held back weeks of Republican attack ads to win the special primary in West Virginia Tuesday to successfully win the governor's race Tuesday, holding off Republican challenger Bill Maloney in a state where President Obama is wildly unpopular. Tomblin, who has been acting governor the past year since former Governor Joe Manchin resigned to become U.S. Senator, finally held off Bill Maloney in a special election to finish up Manchin's term. However, Tomblin will have to run again in 2012 because Manchin's term will be completed next year. Machin was a very popular governor in West Virginia. Tomblin will have to run for governor again next year if he desires to win a full four-year term.
According to Fox News, the race was filled with negative campaign ads from both sides and narrowed within the final weeks. The national parties spent millions of dollars on this campaign. With 96% of the precincts reported, Tomblin had 50% of the vote compared with Maloney's 47%, according to unofficial results. Tomblin campaigned as the rightful heir to Manchin claiming they both helped shaped policies that produced pain-free balanced budgets and revenue surpluses at the time when states across the nation continued to struggle during the recession. Democrats outnumber the GOP in West Virginia by 2:1. However, the Democrats in this blue-collar state are more conservative on issues such as gun rights, cutting taxes, and social issues as well.

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie Once Again Declines to Run for President
N.J. Gov. Christie: 'Not my time' to run for president – USATODAY.com
I have a question for you Gov. Christie: What kind of game are you playing? You've been saying throughout the year at least 800 times that there's no way whatsoever that you'll run for president. For the last 2-3 weeks you've been going back and forth saying that you're reconsidering your position on running for president, then you say you won't run. Last Saturday you made the statement once again that you're reconsidering retracting the statement you made last week that you aren't running for president. Tuesday you just announced that you aren't running for president because there's plenty of work that needs to be accomplished in the Garden State. How long will that last? Will a Republican operative persuade you once again that you need to run for president in 2012? How long will this latest announcement yesterday that you won't run for president last? It's a joke. You've said your work in New Jersey isn't done and that now isn't the right time to run for president. Just wait, you'll have a "change of heart" and give the impression that you're mulling a run for president once again. I wouldn't be surprised if you decide to "reconsider" a run for the presidency in 2012 before it's over with again.
Joseph Farah, founder of World Net Daily, posted an article on World Net Daily on Thursday September 30, 2011 posing the question what are Gov. Chris Christie's accomplishments? I think it's a great question. There are all kinds of conservative pundits such as Sean Hannity who believe that Christie would make a great president someday. They're saying Christie would make a great president because of his tough anti-union rhetoric. However, he hasn't eliminated one state employee according to Farah. Farah lists some of his progressive ideas such as his support for cap and trade, amnesty for illegal aliens, the Ground Zero mosque, and strict gun control. Why do many "conservatives" favor a Christie candidacy in the GOP? His policies aren't compatible with the national Republican Party platform. He's not a conservative. Many of the Progressives in his cabinet would be comfortable in an Obama cabinet. Republicans shouldn't be giving Christie the time of day. It disturbs me media pundits such as Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter think a Christie candidacy would be a great thing for the GOP. What does he stand for? What legislative achievements have been accomplished as a result of him that's turning New Jersey around? I've heard the old adage that everything that glitters isn't gold. I believe we can say the same thing about Gov. Christie.

It disturbs me media pundits such as Sean Hannity and Ann Coulter think a Christie candidacy would be a great thing for the GOP. What does he stand for? What legislative achievements have been accomplished as a result of him that's turning New Jersey around? I've heard the old adage that everything that glitters isn't gold. I believe we can say the same thing about Gov. Christie.

Candidate Obama Appeared And Marched With New Black Panther Party in 2007
» Shock Photos: Candidate Obama Appeared And Marched With New Black Panther Party in 2007 - Big Government
Presidential candidate Barack Obama speaks before the New Black Panthers in 2007 (courtesy of Andrew Breitbart)
Andrew Breitbart on the BigGovernment.com website presents a photo of then Senator and presidential candidate Barack Obama sharing the podium at the New Black Panthers rally as he campaigned for president in Selma, Alabama in March 2007. He also marched with members of the New Black Panthers Party. The photos were captured from a Flickr photo-sharing account before it was scrubbed. The reason why it was scrubbed is because the media wants to conceal President Obama's ties to radical groups such as the New Black Panther Party, etc.
Breitbart was pointing out that the new images raises questions about the Obama administration in its infamous decision to drop the prosecution of the Panthers for voter intimidation in Philadelphia during the 2008 presidential election. The images also raised doubts about the transparency of the White House's guest logs in particular, whether or not Black Panther Party National Chief Malik Zulu Shabazz is the same "Malik Shabazz" listed among the Obama administration's early visitors. J. Christian Adams, the whitleblower in the Black Panther Party case will unveil his new book entitled, Injustice: Exposing the Racial Agenda of the Obama Justice Department. The book exposes the Obama administration corruption far beyond the Panther dismissal. It reveals how the Institutional Left has turned the DOJ into an ideological weapon. Adams' book also describes in detail the Selma march in which then Senator Obama marches with the Black Panthers when campaigning for president.
With then-presidential candidate Barack Obama campaigning and marching with the New Black Panthers, it reveals the radical ties President Obama does and has had with Leftists groups such as the New Black Panthers, for example. The New Black Panther Party is very racist. They've made statements about killing "cracker babies" for example. It's very troubling to see President Obama aligning himself with such a racist organization. It says much about the President. When he dresses in Muslim garb and hangs out and calls terrorists his friends such as Bill Ayers, for example, it says much about what kind ideology Obama espouses. He's a radical socialist who is completing the radical transformation of this country. Click on the above link from BigGovernment.com to read the story.

Songs Sung by the Rambos That Weren't Penned by Dottie
Throughout the 74 years of her life's span, legendary singer and songwriter Dottie Rambo penned over 2500 songs. Many of her songs are well-known and sung by many Christian artists. Some of her most famous songs she penned throughout her lifetime are "He Looked Beyond My Fault and Saw My Need", "Sheltered in the Arms of God", and "I Go to the Rock" to name a few. Many of the songs that she recorded on the numerous albums both solo and with her husband and daughter in the famous singing group "The Rambos" were written by her. However, there were also a number of songs that she and her family sang that she didn't pen down. She did a wonderful job singing many of the songs that she personally didn't write. Some of those songs were hymns. I'm going to post some of the songs that she personally didn't write but did a great job recording them.
How Great Thou Art
Leaning on the Everlasting Arms
Pass Me Not
The Unseen Hand
I Must Tell Jesus
Ten Thousand Years
Precious Jesus
One More River
This Ship is Going Home
Then I'll Know
When the Great Trumpet Sounds
The Pilgrims Have Gone
Up the Golden Highway
How Great Thou Art
Leaning on the Everlasting Arms
Pass Me Not
The Unseen Hand
I Must Tell Jesus
Ten Thousand Years
Precious Jesus
One More River
This Ship is Going Home
Then I'll Know
When the Great Trumpet Sounds
The Pilgrims Have Gone
Up the Golden Highway
