A SIMPLE WHITE ENVELOPE
It's just a small white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree. No name, no identification, no inscription. It has peeked through the branches of our tree for the past 10 years or so.
It all began because my husband Mike hated Christmas -- oh, not the true meaning of Christmas, but the commercial aspects of it -- the overspending, the frantic running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and the dusting powder for Grandma -- the gifts given in desperation because you couldn't think of anything else.
Knowing he felt this way, I decided one year to bypass the usual shirts, sweaters, ties, and so forth. I reached for something special just for Mike. The inspiration came in an unusual way. Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling at the junior level at the school he attended.
Shortly before Christmas, there was a non-league match against a team sponsored by an inner-city church. These youngsters, dressed in sneakers so ragged that shoestrings seemed to be the only thing holding them together, presented a sharp contrast to our boys in their spiffy blue and gold uniforms and sparkling new wrestling shoes.
As the match began, I was alarmed to see that the other team was wrestling without headgear, a kind of light helmet designed to protect a wrestler's ears. It was a luxury the ragtag team obviously could not afford. Well, we ended up walloping them.
We took every weight class. And as each of their boys got up from the mat, he swaggered around in his tatters with false bravado, a kind of street pride that couldn't acknowledge defeat.
Mike, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, 'I wish just one of them could have won,' he said. 'They have a lot of potential, but losing like this could take the heart right out of them.'
Mike loved kids -- all kids -- and he knew them, having coached little league football, baseball, and lacrosse.
That's when the idea for his present came. That afternoon, I went to a local sporting goods store and bought an assortment of wrestling headgear and shoes and sent them anonymously to the inner-city church.
On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Mike what I had done and that this was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas that year and in succeeding years.
For each Christmas, I followed the tradition --one year sending a group of mentally handicapped youngsters to a hockey game, another year a check to a pair of elderly brothers whose home had burned to the ground the week before Christmas, and on and on.
The envelope became the highlight of our Christmas. It was always the last thing opened on Christmas morning, and our children, ignoring their new toys, would stand with wide-eyed anticipation as their dad lifted the envelope from the tree to reveal its contents.
As the children grew, the toys gave way to more practical presents, but the envelope never lost its allure. The story doesn't end there. You see, we lost Mike last year due to cancer.
When Christmas rolled around, I was still so wrapped in grief that I barely got the tree up. But Christmas Eve found me placing an envelope on the tree, and in the morning it was joined by three more.
Each of our children, unbeknownst to the others, had placed an envelope on the tree for their dad. The tradition has grown and someday will expand even further with our grandchildren standing around the tree with wide-eyed anticipation watching as their fathers take down the envelope. Mike's spirit, like the Christmas spirit, will always be with us.
May we all remember Christ, who is the reason for the season, and the true Christmas spirit this year and always.

"I'm 76 and I'm Tired" by Bill Cosby
I'm 76. Except for brief period in the 50's when I was doing my National
Service, I've worked hard since I was 17. Except for some serious
health challenges, I put in 50-hour weeks, and didn't call in sick in
nearly 40 years. I made a reasonable salary, but I didn't inherit my job or my
income, and I worked to get where I am. Given the economy, it looks as
though retirement was a bad idea, and I'm tired. Very tired.
I'm tired of being told that I have to "spread the wealth" to people who
don't have my work ethic. I'm tired of being told the government will
take the money I earned, by force if necessary, and give it to people too lazy
to earn it.
I'm tired of being told that Islam is a "Religion of Peace," when every
day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters, wives and
daughters for their family "honor"; of Muslims rioting over some slight
offense; of Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because they aren't
"believers"; of Muslims burning schools for girls; of Muslims stoning
teenage rape victims to death for "adultery"; of Muslims mutilating the
genitals of little girls; all in the name of Allah, because the Qur'an
and Shari'a law tells them to.
I'm tired of being told that out of "tolerance for other cultures" we
must let Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries use our oil money to fund mosques and madrassa Islamic schools to preach hate in Australia , New Zealand,UK, America and Canada , while no one from these countries are allowed to fund a church, synagogue or religious school in Saudi Arabia or any other Arab country to teach love and tolerance..
I'm tired of being told I must lower my living standard to fight global
warming, which no one is allowed to debate.
I'm tired of being told that drug addicts have a disease, and I must help
support and treat them, and pay for the damage they do. Did a giant germ
rush out of a dark alley, grab them, and stuff white powder up their
noses or stick a needle in their arm while they tried to fight it off?
I'm tired of hearing wealthy athletes, entertainers and politicians of
all parties talking about innocent mistakes, stupid mistakes or youthful
mistakes, when we all know they think their only mistake was getting
caught. I'm tired of people with a sense of entitlement, rich or poor.
I'm really tired of people who don't take responsibility for their lives
and actions. I'm tired of hearing them blame the government, or
discrimination or big-whatever for their problems.
I'm also tired and fed up with seeing young men and women in their teens
and early 20's be-deck them selves in tattoos and face studs, thereby making
themselves un-employable and claiming money from the Government.
Yes, I'm damn tired. But I'm also glad to be 76.. Because, mostly, I'm
not going to have to see the world these people are making. I'm just sorry
for my granddaughter and her children. Thank God I'm on the way out and not
on the way in.
There is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us
sends it on!
This is your chance to make a difference.

THE PROGRESSIVE'S PERFECT TROJAN HORSE
A true patriot, may we be so humble as to listen and heed. Folks, read on. No white man could ever write an article like this and live to tell about it.
A Black man's point of view.
By Lloyd Marcus
As millions of my fellow Americans, I am outraged, devastated and extremely angry by the democrat's unbelievable arrogance and disdain for We The People. Despite our screaming "no" from the rooftops, they forced Obamacare down our throats. Please forgive me for using the following crude saying, but it is very appropriate to describe what has happened. "Don't urinate on me and tell me it's raining." Democrats say their mission is to give all Americans health care. The democrats are lying. Signing Obamacare into law against our will and the Constitution is tyranny and step one of their hideous goal of having as many Americans as possible dependent on government, thus controlling our lives and fulfilling Obama's promise to fundamentally transform America .
I keep asking myself. How did our government move so far from the normal procedures of getting things done? Could a white president have so successfully pulled off shredding the Constitution to further his agenda? I think not.
Ironically, proving America is completely the opposite of the evil racist country they relentlessly accuse her of being, progressives used America 's goodness, guilt and sense of fair play against her. In their quest to destroy America as we know it, progressives borrowed a brilliant scheme from Greek mythology. They offered America a modern day Trojan Horse, a beautifully crafted golden shiny new black man as a presidential candidate. Democrat Joe Biden lauded Obama as the first clean and articulate African American candidate. Democrat Harry Reid said Obama only uses a black dialect when he wants.
White America relished the opportunity to vote for a black man naively believing they would never suffer the pain of being called racist again. Black Americans viewed casting their vote for Obama as the ultimate Affirmative Action for America 's sins of the past.
Then there were the entitlement loser voters who said, "I'm votin' for the black dude who promises to take from those rich SOBs and give to me."
Just as the deceived Trojans dragged the beautifully crafted Trojan Horse into Troy as a symbol of their victory, deceived Americans embraced the progressive's young, handsome, articulate and so called moderate black presidential candidate as a symbol of their liberation from accusation of being a racist nation. Also like the Trojan Horse, Obama was filled with the enemy hiding inside.
Sunday, March 21, 2010, a secret door opened in Obama, the shiny golden black man. A raging army of democrats charged out. Without mercy, they began their vicious bloody slaughter of every value, freedom and institution we Americans hold dear; launching the end of America as we know it.
Wielding swords of votes reeking with the putrid odor of back door deals, the democrats landed a severe death blow to America and individual rights by passing Obamacare.
The mainstream liberal media has been relentlessly badgering the Tea Party movement with accusations of racism. Because I am a black tea party patriot, I am bombarded with interviewers asking me the same veiled question. "Why are you siding with these white racists against America 's first African American president?" I defend my fellow patriots who are white stating, "These patriots do not give a hoot about Obama's skin color. They simply love their country and oppose his radical agenda. Obama's race is not an issue."
Recently, I have come to believe that perhaps I am wrong about Obama's race not being an issue. In reality, Obama's presidency has everything to do with racism, but not from the Tea Party movement. Progressives and Obama have exploited his race from the rookie senator's virtually unchallenged presidential campaign to his unprecedented bullying of America into Obamacare. Obama's race trumped all normal media scrutiny of him as a presidential candidate and most recently even the Constitution of the United States . Obamacare forces all Americans to purchase health care which is clearly unconstitutional.
No white president could get away with boldly and arrogantly thwarting the will of the American people and ignoring laws. President Clinton tried universal health care. Bush tried social security reform. The American people said "no" to both presidents' proposals and it was the end of it. So how can Obama get away with giving the American people the finger? The answer: He is black.
The mainstream liberal media continues to portray all who oppose Obama in any way as racist. Despite a list of failed policies, overreaches into the private sector, violations of the Constitution and planned destructive legislation too numerous to mention in this article, many Americans are still fearful of criticizing our first black president. Incredible.
My fellow Americans, you must not continue to allow yourselves to be "played" and intimidated by Obama's race or the historical context of his presidency. If we are to save America , the greatest nation on the planet, Obama's progressive agenda must be stopped.

Slave, serf, or free man?
It is a truism that freedom is often surrendered for security. Much of Europe and places in the US are in flames because 'they' tried to take back some benefit or the other. Or at least that is the excuse. It doesn't seem to matter much what the actual match was, once the fuse is lit, the riot follows. A member of the current administration has stated that you should never let a crisis go to waste. In England, kids (some from rather well off homes) are in the midst of the looting and burning. A huge crises that the government is meeting on to discuss as I write. They will determine new laws to make sure this never happens again ... until next time!
Well, why not join in the fun? There is almost zero chance of being seriously hurt and they are entitled to full government support for all of their lives. Of course they never seem to think about where that support really comes from. If they do think about it, they just don't care. Even if caught they don't lose their benefits. It has happened here. Gangs in Wisconsin engaged in racial attacks (but not hate crimes because the victims are white, apparently) at the state fair. Helpless people pulled from cars and beaten almost to death because, one of the gang members said, it was safe to target the white fair goers.
Interestingly enough, this Sikh Temple was unmolested - - care to guess why? It is part of their religion to have a nice sharp blade with them. Actually from Wikipedia, the blade is a Kirpan, one of the 5 "K"s - "Kirpan - a strapped curved sword. Symbolizes the safety of all and the carrier's personal duty and responsibility as a Sikh to protect the innocent in the message of peace." Check out this link for a full explanation of the blade.
The point being, the rioters decided to give the temple a pass. A quick look at the photo shows why - the youngsters wouldn't be treated with kid gloves or zero retaliation. Interestingly enough, all the cameras in the UK are now being used to catch these punks. I am glad they may actually see some justice but it troubles me that so much of modern society, ours and others, feel entitled to what they haven't worked to obtain. Secondly, I am very concerned that the cameras that spy on everyone, all the time, are so capable that these kids are being located. Finally, I note that there is a run on baseball bats in the UK since they can't have guns.
Slaves have no weapons at all. Serfs may have a club to use against the marauding horde of sociopath children they have bred. The free man, and in England the Sikhs are free men, have weapons to defend themselves and their loved ones. Were they citizens instead of subjects, they would have guns and the riots might have ended in a few hours, not lasted days.
The question for tomorrow is just how much freedom will the people of England be willing to surrender so that they can be "safe" from the riots? How much further must the US go down that road before it happens in large areas here and martial law is declared? What are you ready to surrender for safety?
Apparently the poet was wrong. The world doesn't end with a whimper; it ends with a conflagration and the noise of rioting.

Cowboy rules for the Wild West are as follows:
1. Pull your pants up. You look like an idiot.
2. Turn your cap right, your head ain't crooked.
3. Let's get this straight: it's called a 'gravel road.' I drive a pickup truck because I want to. No matter how slow you drive, you're gonna get dust on your Lexus. Drive it or get out of the way.
4. They are cattle. That's why they smell like cattle. They smell like money to us. Get over it. Don't like it? I-10 & I-40 go east and west, I-17 & I-15 goes north and south. Pick one and go.
5. So you have a $60,000 car. We're impressed. We have $250,000 Combines that are driven only 3 weeks a year.
6. Every person in the Wild West waves. It's called being friendly. Try to understand the concept.
7. If that cell phone rings while a bunch of geese/pheasants/ducks/doves are comin' in during a hunt, we WILL shoot it outta your hand. You better hope you don't have it up to your ear at the time.
8. Yeah. We eat trout, salmon, deer and elk. You really want sushi and caviar? It's available at the corner bait shop.
9. The 'Opener' refers to the first day of deer season. It's a religious holiday held the closest Saturday to the first of November.
10. We open doors for women. That's applied to all women, regardless of age.
11. No, there's no 'vegetarian special' on the menu. Order steak, or you can order the Chef's Salad and pick off the 2 pounds of ham and turkey.
12. When we fill out a table, there are three main dishes: meats, vegetables, and breads. We use three spices: salt, pepper, and ketchup! Oh, yeah ... We don't care what you folks in Cincinnati call that stuff you eat... IT AIN'T REAL CHILI!!
13. You bring 'Coke' into my house, it better be brown, wet and served over ice. You bring 'Mary Jane' into my house, she better be cute, know how to shoot, drive a truck, and have long hair.
14. College and High School Football is as important here as the Giants, the Yankees, the Mets, the Lakers and the Knicks, and a dang site more fun to watch.
15. Yeah, we have golf courses.. But don't hit the water hazards - it spooks the fish.
16. Turn down that blasted car stereo! That thumpity-thump ain't music, anyway. We don't want to hear it anymore than we want to see your boxers! Refer back to #1!

Is YOUR Doctor on Drug Commissions?
Of course I already knew this, but no one would believe me when I said it. When one has the ability to discern and understand what the signs on the roadways say, it's not hard to determine what awaits you up ahead. It's like walking down the street and being able to avoid any undesirable situation, like a personal confrontation with a criminal and you lose your wallet, identification, and possibility even being shot and injured in the process.
And so here's the verification by Bob Livingston:
In Birmingham, Ala., some doctors get paid
handsome sums when they prescribe certain
drugs. UAB Hospital now requires physicians to
report payments from drug companies including
speaking engagements.
Partial disclosures for yearly commissions:
Dr. William Bailey $250,365; Dr. William Geisler
$201,570; Dr. Warner Huh $91,275; Dr. John
Northrock $78,000.
So doctors are peddling drugs legally.

Is America the Land of the Free?
I wrote that the Criminal Federal Government people are NO WHERE near DC at this most crucial time when Katrina's Sister, Irene is ready to destroy everything in her path, even Washington DC. They all are hiding under their desk or dinner table thousands of miles away shaking in their panties afraid to show themselves. They're pushing their responsibility off on the States like they always do when they don't want to be part of the disaster and then blame everybody else for the tragedy.
I found this ariticle that verifies what I say which was written by someone who is more recognized as a published writer that I am. Not that I'm not a published writer, I'm just not "WELL Known", yet my writings have been found in other States than the one in which I write or have written. :P
So here is what Bob Livingston had to say:
The President and all 535 members of Congress
take oaths to uphold and defend the
U.S. Constitution. One has to wonder how many
have ever read it. They certainly seem hell-bent
on disregarding it.
Article 1, Section 1 says all legislative powers
are vested in Congress, which consists of a Senate
and a House of Representatives. That’s apparently
no longer the case, although I can’t find where
that was legally changed through an Amendment.
The Environmental Protection Agency
believes it holds legislative power. According
to U.S. News & World Report: “Two new EPA
pollution regulations will slam the coal industry
so hard that hundreds of thousands of jobs will
be lost, and electric rates will skyrocket 11 per -
cent to over 23 percent, according to a new study
based on government data.”
There is no Constitutional authority for an
EPA, nor is there Constitutional authority for
Congress to cede its lawmaking powers to the
EPA. But apparently, Congress doesn't’t care.

I found this ariticle that verifies what I say which was written by someone who is more recognized as a published writer that I am. Not that I'm not a published writer, I'm just not "WELL Known", yet my writings have been found in other States than the one in which I write or have written. :P
So here is what Bob Livingston had to say:
The President and all 535 members of Congress
take oaths to uphold and defend the
U.S. Constitution. One has to wonder how many
have ever read it. They certainly seem hell-bent
on disregarding it.
