A Christmas Story 2011

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

2011-11-30T16:19:00.000-08:00

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.

"I'm 76 and I'm tired. If you don't forward this you are part of the problem".

THE PROGRESSIVE'S PERFECT TROJAN HORSE

2011-09-02T14:39:00.000-07:00

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?

2011-09-02T11:36:00.000-07:00

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.

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?

2011-08-27T10:33:00.000-07:00

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.

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.

The FDA wants Americans to remain fat, unhealthy and ignorant.

2011-08-26T16:35:00.000-07:00

I got my September Health News Letter from Bob Livinston and in the section entitled, "Walnuts Belong in Your Medicine Cabinet" it told what the FDA did and it pissed me off even more with our great Loser Federal Government. But I'll let you decide, becasue I might be a bias tick.

So heres part of what Bob wrote in his column:

The Food and Drug Administration sent a warning
letter to Diamond Foods, Inc., because the packaging
“misbranded” the product, causing them to be drugs.

The FDA’s letter says in part: “Based on
claims made on your firm’s website, we have
determined that your walnut products are
promoted for conditions that cause them to
be drugs because these products are intended
for use in the prevention, mitigation, and
treatment of disease.”

The labels cited studies indicating the
omega-3 fatty acids found in walnuts helped
lower cholesterol levels; protect against heart
disease, stroke and cancer; ease arthritis and
other inflammatory diseases; fight depression
and mental illness; and provide other health
benefits.

The FDA ordered Diamond Foods, Inc. to
correct the violations or face seizure of products
or court injunction.

Life Extension Magazine reported on the
letter in its August 2011 edition and cited a
number of published articles highlighting the
health benefits of walnuts. In other words, the
FDA is ignoring the science that proves the
healthful benefits of a natural food.

The FDA, which claims to look out for the
health of Americans, is doing just the opposite.
It obviously wants Americans to remain fat,
unhealthy and ignorant. How else to explain
an agency that ignores the science behind the
health benefits of natural whole foods while
allowing food manufacturers to get away with
the spurious claims they make on the health
benefits of processed foods like potato chips
and breakfast bars with simulated fruit
products they pass off as real fruit.

And it’s not just walnuts the FDA hates.
The FDA hates many natural foods like cherries,
blueberries, pomegranate juice and green tea.
All of these natural foods provide scientifically
proven health benefits, but the FDA ignores the
science and regulates whether and how those
benefits can even be stated on their packaging.

Prescription Drug Shortage Hits U.S. Doctors and Hospitals

2011-08-20T15:58:00.000-07:00

If you though that it hurt when the nurse or doctor shoved that thermometer up your A$$ wait for this drug shortage that BIG PHAMA is gonna shove somewhere... And I believe that this is from this CRIMINAL Political Administration, backed and demanded by Puppet Master Soros.

Prescription Drug Shortage Hits U.S. Doctors and Hospitals
Lack of drugs has caused patient deaths, many at risk

by: Charlotte Huff | from: AARP Bulletin | August 5, 2011

Critical shortages of lifesaving drugs are threatening hospital care in America, delaying patient treatment and limiting the medicines doctors can prescribe and the anesthetics they can use to perform surgery.

In the past few weeks, several pharmaceutical giants have warned doctors not to start patients on some medicines because they can't guarantee a steady supply, and hospitals have begun rationing some vital drugs. The Food and Drug Administration had reports of 180 drug shortages as of July 31, a number that already surpasses the record 178 shortages reported for all of last year.

The ever-increasing shortages particularly affect older Americans because they undergo more surgeries and cancer treatments, doctors say. They also are more likely to have medical conditions that can make it difficult to find a suitable substitute when the drug they need is unavailable.

Recent surveys by hospital and pharmacist groups tell the troubling story. A national survey by the American Hospital Association in June found that 99.5 percent of hospitals have experienced one or more drug shortages in the last six months. Nearly half of the 820 representative hospitals contacted — 44 percent — reported shortages of more than 21 drugs.

Moreover, 63 percent of the hospitals reported that in some cases, patients didn't receive the recommended treatment; 10 percent said that problem occurred frequently.

Because of the shortages, "we've had deaths … we've had medication errors," says Michael Cohen, a pharmacist and president at the nonprofit Institute for Safe Medication Practices in Horsham, Pa. As an example, he referred to the case this year in Alabama where 19 patients were seriously infected and nine died because a standard, premixed solution for IV feeding tubes wasn't available, so a pharmacy mixed its own and it was contaminated.

Drugs now in short supply — often given by injection or intravenously to patients in the hospital — are prescribed for a wide range of medical problems including cancer, allergies, heart disease and infectious diseases. Shortages involve some anesthetics for patients having surgery and "crash cart" drugs for emergencies — like epinephrine injections used to restart the heart — and even electrolytes for patients fed intravenously.

Johnson & Johnson recently warned doctors not to start cancer patients on Doxil, a widely used chemotherapy drug used to treat ovarian cancer and multiple myeloma.

At the nationally known M.D. Anderson Cancer Center at Houston, the supply of the thyroid cancer drug Thyrogen (thyrotropin alfa) was so tight by mid-July that the cancer specialists began triage — giving patients the drug according to the severity of their case, says Wendy Smith, a clinical pharmacy manager there. The Thyrogen shortage, Smith says, "puts us in a new frontier where we are actually delaying [treatment] in situations where there is no drug alternative."

Beth Frank, who lives in a suburb of Dallas, was diagnosed two years ago with a rare and aggressive form of thyroid cancer. In June, she was scheduled for her third radioactive iodine treatment, designed to kill any remaining, scattered cancer cells. But the 50-year-old administrative assistant has been waiting two frustrating months for the procedure — now scheduled for mid-August in a local hospital — because Thyrogen wasn't available. The drug helps thyroid cancer patients avoid the sometimes severe side effects — including depression, fatigue and pain — of hormone withdrawal.

Genzyme, the manufacturer of Thyrogen, said it anticipates supply disruptions to continue into 2012.

Why the shortages of these critical drugs? The FDA says the problems mainly stem from manufacturing issues, such as drug production temporarily shut down because the plant wasn't sterile. Sometimes, though, the shortages are tied to disruptions in the supply of raw materials or to increased demand for some drugs. And, the FDA says, some companies have simply stopped making older, less profitable drugs, particularly older sterile injectable drugs.

When one company has a problem or discontinues a drug, it's difficult for other manufacturers to increase production quickly. The FDA recently asked manufacturers to report production problems or changes that might cause potential shortages.

Remedies vary but the FDA can work with other U.S. manufacturers to ramp up their production of a drug in limited supply or search overseas for suitable companies willing to import the drug. It also can help drugmakers locate new supplies of raw material and certify them for import.

The drug supply glitches, which vary from region to region and week to week, have triggered congressional interest because the FDA is limited in what it can do to solve the problem. Currently, the federal agency cannot require firms to report drug shortages, give the reason for a shortage or even provide an estimate about how long the shortage might last.

Some manufacturers voluntarily report supply problems, says Cynthia Reilly, a pharmacist and a director at the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists. But, she says, a pharmacist may not know until "they open the order they just placed and it's not in there."

That group backs legislation that would require manufacturers to notify the FDA of potential supply problems involving key medicines.

Meanwhile, the FDA is asking health workers and patients to report shortages to the FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research at drugshortages@fda.hhs.gov.

Data caps
Even unlimited access has its limits

Aug 17th 2011, 7:37 by G.F. | SEATTLE

HUMPTY DUMPTY told Alice that "When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less." American telecommunications companies seem to have adopted a similar semantic strategy when they use the word "unlimited". AT&T is the latest to join the bandwagon. It has just imposed a cap on unlimited mobile data plans for the heaviest users, soon to be followed by limits, and fees for exceeding them, on its wired broadband network. The deployment of zippy next-generation 4G networks, too, is hampered by outdated caps on usage many telecoms firms have and will put in place.

Verizon Wireless engaged in doublespeak of its own several years ago with its first-generation 3G offering, which the operator plugged as "Unlimited Broadband Access".

This is just a teaser of what's coming for your "Unlimited Data Plan" so go to the link below to read what's going on:

Where to put Obama's picture

2011-08-17T16:27:00.000-07:00

George Washington, our nation's first president and leader of the American Revolution!

Abe Lincoln, honorable leader pulled our nation through its darkest time!

Alexander Hamilton, founding father, first secretary of the treasure and leader of the constitutional convention!

Andrew Jackson, "Old Hickory " fought the British in New Orleans !

Ulysses Grant, Union army general, lead the North through the Civil War!

Ben Franklin, Genius inventor, political theorist and leading author of the constitution.

Finally, we have someone to put on the food stamp!!!!!!!

Obama's policies will put more people on welfare than any president before him so this placement is most appropriate. Unlike the Nobel Peace Prize, for which he did nothing, this is an "honor" he richly deserves.

Obama clashes with Tea Party member

2011-08-16T15:18:00.000-07:00

As ususal My Commentary comes first and everybody else follows:

Welcome to the government administration of lies...Did you think that I was just limiting this to the lying Obutthead adminstration? Wrong!! We've been lied to by all of the Hate American Politician Organizations (HAPO) since the death of the last Founding Father in the mid 1800's, sad to say.

Here's a quote that fits what I'm talking about and this was stated in 1776:
"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman." --Thomas Paine, The American Crises, No. 1, 1776

It sure is ashamed that only Three Percent of the men and women of the Colonial times stood up to the enemy, and guess what? ONLY Three Percent will do it again, because the other 97% of the people who claim to be Citizens of the United States are chickenshit losers and love the enemies of the United States more than loving the Greatest Country in the World.

How can I say that? WE the United States GIVE MORE to our enemies than to our FRIENDS, and demand NOTHING from our ENEMIES, but DEMAND EVERYTHING from our FRIENDS. Pretty CHICKEN SHIT if you ask me, but then that's the GOVERNMENT THAT YOU 97% love.

Nuff said, here's the story of another LIE from the Government and the moron who thinks his SHIT don't stink:

By David Jackson, USA TODAY Aug 16, 2011

President Obama came face-to-face with the Tea Party last night in Iowa, clashing with a member during and after a town hall last night.

Ryan Rhodes, a group leader in the Hawkeye State, stood up and shouted a question during a town hall, asking the president how he can call for more civility when "your vice president is calling people like me, a Tea Party member, a 'terrorist.'"

Obama, who had not called on the man, said the town hall wouldn't work "if you just stand up when I asked everybody to raise their hand. ... I didn't see you. I wasn't avoiding you. ... Please."

After calling another person, Obama circled back to address Rhodes' question: "First of all, in fairness to this gentleman who raised a question, I absolutely agree that everybody needs to try to tone down the rhetoric.

"Now, in fairness, since I've been called a socialist who wasn't born in this country, who is destroying America and taking away its freedoms because I passed a health care bill, I'm all for lowering the rhetoric."
After the event, Obama came up to speak with Rhodes.

It's hard to quote their conversation exactly because of the music, but Rhodes again raised "the terrorist" comment and Obama defended his vice president, Joe Biden.

Biden has denied calling the Tea Party terrorists. A House Democrat used the term during a group meeting with Biden over the debt ceiling debate, but the vice president denied news reports that he echoed the comment.

Reform, pay cuts likely to widen gap between rich and poor hospitals

2011-08-16T12:57:00.000-07:00

Before you get into this article, I want to say: To those of you who thought you were getting such a GREAT DEAL -- "YES WE CAN!!!" --- I hope that you enjoy the 'end' product, if you know what I mean. Most likely you won't, but this is because of NO Due Diligence. Thank YOU!

NOW FOR THE ARTICLE:

Analysts say physicians also could end up winners and losers, depending on who is affiliated with the larger health system.

By BOB COOK, amednews staff. Posted Aug. 15, 2011.

When it comes to hospitals and their financial health, they are either thriving or wheezing -- with no in-between.

"The gap between the haves and have-nots is getting bigger," said Samuel R. Maizel, who represents financially distressed hospitals as a partner at the Los Angeles-based law firm of Pachulski Stang Ziehl & Jones.

There isn't one official set of numbers that bears out his claim, but analysts say anyone who has seen news reports about hospitals alternately adding jobs or subtracting them is right in thinking that hospitals are either growing or struggling.

Larger, more well-capitalized hospitals always have had advantages over their smaller, less financially stable competitors. But analysts say health system reform, and declining or changing government payments, are making those differences more acute.

With quality-based payments and accountable care organizations a big part of health reform, analysts say the advantage goes to hospital systems that can assemble a network of primary care, specialty care and acute care services, and manage patient information electronically. Those systems that can't accomplish this either will die or be acquired by those that can.

"What is beginning to happen, and it's been happening for the last few years, is healthy systems are becoming aggregators of other hospitals," said Robert Betka, a hospital consultant and owner of Catalyst Management Advisers in Grand Rapids, Mich. "They are making sure they own the full spectrum of preventive care, primary care, specialty care and post-acute care. They are positioning for ACOs, pay-for-performance, and making sure they can keep dollars within the system across the entire continuum."

Also, with budgetary pressure to cut Medicare and Medicaid payments and make them more quality-based, those systems more reliant on government pay are hurting even before the bulk of health reform is scheduled to be implemented in 2014.

In a July 15 report, Moody's Investors Service said its ratio of bond ratings downgrades to upgrades was 4-to-1 in the second quarter of 2011, mostly because of decreased government funding. Moody's said 67% of the downgraded hospitals in the second quarter were those with less than $500 million of revenue, as were 72% of the downgraded facilities in the first half of the year.

Larger hospitals have been more aggressive in recent years about acquiring physician practices, affiliating with them or hiring physicians directly, analysts said. That could create winners and losers among physicians, determined by who is affiliated with the larger hospital system.

The model of a physician splitting privileges between multiple hospitals is changing, said Eric Johnson, senior vice president of Avalere Health's health care network practice. "Those splitters are receding from the marketplace," he said.

Maelstrom within the calm

By some measures, it appears hospitals as a whole are doing OK. The number of mass layoffs -- 50 or more employees cut at one time -- at hospitals was 63 through June, according to the Dept. of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics. At that pace, there would be 126 for the year, fewer than the 137 in 2010 and the record 152 in the recessionary year of 2009. Meanwhile, after a slight decline in June, hospital jobs rebounded in July, going up 14,000 to a seasonally adjusted 4,755,800, according to the BLS.

Also, the Healthcare Finance Management Assn., in an Aug. 1 report, noted that hospitals' collective margin has stayed steady, at around 2.5% every year, since 2005.

Despite those seemingly positive numbers, analysts said, the hospital industry is going through changes that are shaking out financially weaker systems.

For one thing, even before health reform, there has been a long-term decline in hospitals' historic revenue generator -- inpatient care -- as a share of its collections. The percentage of hospitals' revenue that came from outpatient care increased from 20% in 1989 to 40% in 2009, the most recent year available, according to the American Hospital Assn.

The AHA also reported that Medicare and Medicaid payments have not met the cost of care since 1999, and are covering less of that cost every year. Hospitals collected $35 billion less from Medicaid and Medicare in 2009, the most recent year available, than the cost of the care provided, the AHA said.

Since that time, the necessity of collecting outpatient revenue, and the troubles for facilities that rely on government revenue, have grown even more critical, analysts said.

"The large hospitals that are parts of large chains, hospitals that have access to capital, are doing well and will do well under the new health care reform bill," Maizel said. "But stand-alone hospitals, undercapitalized rural hospitals, hospitals that see a high percentage of government reimbursement or those who are presently uninsured -- those hospitals are either going to merge or go out of business."

One of Maizel's clients is Victor Valley (Calif.) Hospital, a stand-alone facility that is in bankruptcy. On July 14, a judge allowed Prime Healthcare Services Foundation to buy the facility for $35 million, a deal awaiting the California attorney general's approval. Meanwhile, bankrupt or struggling nonprofit systems in Massachusetts and New Jersey are being purchased by for-profit systems. Money-losing West Penn Allegheny Health System in Pittsburgh was bought in June by a health plan, Highmark.

Although a few larger systems might trim some nonclinical workers to keep costs under control, in general they are expanding. For example, both IU Health and St. Vincent Health, two large primary-care-to-acute-care systems in Indianapolis, have announced plans to build 40-bed hospitals near the same exit off Interstate 69 in Fishers, Ind., where each already had outpatient locations. IU Health's will open in fall 2011, and St. Vincent's will open in December 2012.

"The ones that are hiring [are] teaching hospitals, large hospitals, well-known, good-name hospitals. Name-brand hospitals," said Mahmud Hassan, PhD, director of the Rutgers University Pharmaceutical MBA program in New Jersey and a professor of finance and economics at the school.

Johnson, of Avalere, said a few small hospitals still will find a place in the industry, particularly if they can burnish their reputations "in a niche-y sort of way." But in general, he said, with the growing emphasis on scale, and bigger hospitals' deeper pockets, "smaller hospitals are going to lose."

Nero in the White House

Three significant historical events have been eclipsed by Obama: 1) Jimmy Carter will no longer be looked upon as the worst president in American history; 2) Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton will no longer be recognized as the greatest liars in presidential history; 3) Clinton's stain on Monica's dress, and what that did to the White House in general and the office of the president specifically, will forever pale in comparison to the stain and stench of Obama.

I need not spend much time on the failure of Obama as president. His tenure has been a failure on every measurable level. So much so, in fact, that some of the staunchest, most respected liberal Democrats and Democratic supporters have not only openly criticized him – some even more harshly than this essayist – but they have called for him to step down.

Richard Nixon's words "I am not a crook," punctuated with his involvement in Watergate, and Bill Clinton's finger-wagging as he told one of the most pathetic lies in presidential history, in the aftermath of Obama, will be viewed as mere prevarications.

Mr. Nixon and Clinton lied to save their backsides. Although, I would argue there are no plausible explanations for doing what they did, I could entertain arguments pursuant to understanding their rationales for lying. But in the case of Obama, he lies because he is a liar. He doesn't only lie to cover his misdeeds – he lies to get his way. He lies to belittle others and to make himself look presentable at their expense. He lies about his faith, his associations, his mother, his father and his wife. He lies and bullies to keep his background secret. His lying is congenital and compounded by socio-psychological factors of his life.

Never in my life, inside or outside of politics, have I witnessed such dishonesty in a political leader. He is the most mendacious political figure I have ever witnessed. Even by the low standards of his presidential predecessors, his narcissistic, contumacious arrogance is unequalled. Using Obama as the bar, Nero would have to be elevated to sainthood.

As the stock markets were crashing, taking with them the remaining life saving of untold tens of thousands, Obama was hosting his own birthday celebration, which was an event of epicurean splendidness. The shamelessness of the event was that it was not a state dinner to welcome foreign dignitaries, nor was it to honor an American accomplishment – it was to honor the Pharaoh, Barack Hussein Obama. The event's sole purpose was for the Pharaoh to have his loyal subjects swill wine, indulge in gluttony and behavior unfit to take place on the property of taxpayers, as they suffer. It was of a magnitude comparable to that of Tyco CEO Dennis Kozlowski's $2 million birthday extravaganza for its pure lack of respect for the people.

Permit me to digress momentarily. The U.S. Capitol and the White House were built with the intent of bringing awe and respect to America and her people. They were also built with the intent of being the greatest of equalizers. I can tell you, having personally been to both, there is a moment of awe and humility associated with being in the presence of the history of those buildings. They are to be honored and inscribed into our national psyche, not treated as a Saturday night house party at Chicago's Cabrini-Green.

The people of America own that home Obama and his wife continue to debase with their pan-ghetto behavior. It is clear that Obama and family view themselves as royalty, but they're not. They are employees of "we the people," who are suffering because of his failed policies. What message does this behavior send to those who today are suffering as never before?

What message does it send to all Americans who are struggling? Has anyone stopped to think what the stock market downturn forebodes for those 80 million baby boomers who will be retiring in the next period of years? Is there a snowball's chance in the Sahara that every news program on the air would applaud this behavior if it were George W. Bush? To that point, do you remember the media thrashing Bush took for having a barbecue at the White House?

Like Nero – who was only slightly less debaucherous than Caligula – with wine on his lips Obama treated "we the people" the way Caligula treated those over whom he lorded.

Many in America wanted to be proud when the first person of color was elected president, but instead, they have been witness to a congenital liar, a woman who has been ashamed of America her entire life, failed policies, intimidation and a commonality hitherto not witnessed in political leaders. He and his wife view their life at our expense as an entitlement – while America's people go homeless, hungry and unemployed.

Deborah seemd to be having one of her down times in believing at this moment. Everytime she turned around, figuratively speaking, she seemed to come up against a brick wall in her life. Trials are a hard thing to go through and we're told that without having to struggle to acheive things in life, we won't appreciate them when they do come our way.

"Well, are you going to help me,Lord," she pleaded. Or are you going to let me do it all by myself so You can watch me stumble some more," she asked. "You know that I'm weak," she pleaded. "Have some mercy on me," she groaned.

Deborah laid there unable to get up after the beating she endured from her tormentor. Her body lifelessly laying there, breathing so shallow that it was hard to know whether she was alive or dead. Her eyes barely open, her pulse very weak, yet she was able to see her favorite palm tree through the open doors of the barn. Deborah couldn't tell if she was in the flesh or in spirit form.

Seals Die In A Helicopter That Was Shot Down

2011-08-07T17:17:00.000-07:00

I believe that this incident was an inside job by our government and you'll see what I mean as you read what the wire news said and by what I point out, and from my conclusion of what will happen. HOWEVER, I could be wrong, since these glasses that I wear -- these High Definitions glasses -- could be tainted just a little, but I've see this scenario played out before by our previous Crooked Political Administrations.

This was the headline news from CNN:

Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) — The U.S. military was reeling Saturday after a helicopter went down in eastern Afghanistan, killing 31 Americans, including 22 Navy SEALs, a U.S. military official told CNN Saturday.

Notice what it says here, "a U.S. military official told..." Who is this military official? Why is he anonymous? Will this person play a role later in this incident? We'll see.

In the single deadliest incident since the start of the decade-long Afghan war, an Army Chinook carrying a team of U.S. special forces and U.S. and Afghan soldiers went down in Wardak province. Insurgents are believed to have shot down the helicopter, the military official said.

Here we are again with an anonymous military official giving information about "Insurgents shooting down this helicopter..." How does this military official know it was done by "Insurgents?" We heard some chatter about the enemy Insurgents claiming responsibility, but then again, who believes what the enemy has to say. They're all liars, and if the weren't they wouldn't have their faces covered. What are they trying to hid? If you cover your face with a rag and you say something, it means that you don't want to become known and get caught,thus you become a liar by hiding and make statements that might not be the truth. A liar always hides what he or she doesn't want known about them to throw off those who are looking for them.

The majority of the Navy SEALs who died belonged to the same covert unit that conducted the raid that killed Osama bin Laden in May, though they were not the same men, the official said.

Here's some truth that someone in our government wants to prove to us about what had happened and that it is true: "The majority of the Navy SEALs who died belonged to the same covert unit..." Interesting. What did these Seals know? Why were these Seals in a helicopter that didn't have any armament? Who knew the route that they were taking? How did the enemy know when and where this helicopter would be so it could be destroyed?

President Barack Obama mourned the deaths of the American troops, saying in a statement that the crash serves as a reminder of the "extraordinary sacrifices" being made by the U.S. military and its families. He said he also mourned "the Afghans who died alongside our troops."

"President Barack Obama mourned...?" I can't see an Enemy of the State mourning for someone he or she hates, especially America's finest -- Seal Team Six.

Do you want to know what I think happened? I think that this Seal Team was killed to prevent them from bringing to light some of the intelligence about what had taken place in the supposedly killing of Osama Bin Laden. Bin Laden's body was never seen by anybody before it was supposedly dumped in the ocean, IF it was ever dumped and/or if he was ever killed.

I believe that these Seals were killed so that down the road,the truth would not surface as to where Bin Laden went and why he was removed. After all, isn't it stated by many that Obama is a muslim too? Isn't it known that Obama has CIA connections with special favors for life?

I think that sometime down the road, the person that caused this helicopter to explode and killing all aboard will also meet the same fate, because he or she is a loose end that needs to be silenced by another covert agent who will also die a strange death.

That's how the Mob does things, that is, until the last loose end is removed or tied and there's no evidence tracing the incident back to the originator of the scheme...The President of the United States. The Enemy of the State.

Obama didn't have the balls

The following is very sad if only half true and I suspect it is all true. I think that one of the main flaws in our democratic system is that too often people in power are more concerned with the political ramifications of some action rather than the necessity of what should be done.

Subject: Leon Panetta made the call?

This how this was received. You be the Judge. The truth is out there somewhere.

White House Insider:

Obama Hesitated – Panetta Issued Order to Kill Osama Bin Laden

by Ulsterman in Issues, May 3, 2011

"What Valerie Jarrett, and the president, did not know is that Leon Panetta had already initiated a program that reported to him –and only him, involving a covert on the ground attack against the compound."

Q: You stated that President Obama was “overruled” by military/intelligence officials regarding the decision to send in military specialists into the Osama Bin Laden compound. Was that accurate?

A: I was told – in these exact terms, “we overruled him.” (Obama) I have since followed up and received further details on exactly what that meant, as well as the specifics of how Leon Panetta worked around the president’s “persistent hesitation to act.” There appears NOT to have been an outright overruling of any specific position by President Obama, simply because there was no specific position from the president to do so. President Obama was, in this case, as in all others, working as an absentee president.

I was correct in stating there had been a push to invade the compound for
several weeks if not months, primarily led by Leon Panetta, Hillary Clinton, Robert Gates, David Petraeus, and Jim Clapper. The primary opposition to this plan originated from Valerie Jarrett, and it was her opposition that was enough to create uncertainty within President Obama. Obama would meet with various components of the pro-invasion faction, almost always with Jarrett present, and then often fail to indicate his position. This situation continued for some time, though the division between Jarrett/Obama and the rest intensified more recently, most notably from Hillary Clinton. She was livid over the president’s failure to act, and her office began a campaign of anonymous leaks to the media
indicating such. As for Jarrett, her concern rested on two primary fronts. One, that the military action could fail and harm the president’s already weakened standing with both the American public and the world. Second, that the attack would be viewed as an act of aggression against Muslims, and further destabilize conditions in the Middle East.

Q: What changed the president’s position and enabled the attack against Osama Bin Laden to proceed?

A: Nothing changed with the president’s opinion – he continued to avoid having one. Every time military and intelligence officials appeared to make progress in forming a position, Jarrett would intervene and the stalling would begin again. Hillary started the ball really rolling as far as pressuring Obama began, but it was Panetta and Petraeus who ultimately pushed Obama to finally act – sort of. Panetta was receiving significant reports from both his direct CIA sources, as well as Petraeus-originating Intel. Petraeus was threatening to act on his own via a bombing attack. Panetta reported back to the president that a bombing of the compound would result in successful killing of Osama Bin Laden, and little risk to American lives. Initially, as he had done before, the president indicated a willingness to act. But once again, Jarrett intervened, convincing the president that innocent Pakistani lives could be lost in such a bombing attack, and Obama would be left attempting to explain Panetta’s failed policy. Again Obama hesitated – this time openly delaying further meetings to discuss the issue with Panetta. A brief meeting was held at this time with other officials, including Secretary Gates and members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, but Gates, like Panetta, was unable to push the president to act. It was at this time that Gates indicated to certain Pentagon officials that he may resign earlier than originally indicated – he was that frustrated. Both Panetta and Clinton convinced him to stay on and see the operation through.

What happened from there is what was described by me as a “masterful
manipulation” by Leon Panetta. Panetta indicated to Obama that leaks regarding knowledge of Osama Bin Laden’s location were certain to get out sooner rather than later, and action must be taken by the administration or the public backlash to the president’s inaction would be “…significant to the point of political debilitation.” It was at that time that Obama stated an on-ground campaign would be far more acceptable to him than a bombing raid. This was intended as a stalling tactic, and it had originated from Jarrett. Such a campaign would take both time, and present a far greater risk of failure. The president had been instructed by Jarrett to inform Mr., Panetta that he would have sole discretion to act against the Osama Bin Laden compound. Jarrett believed this would further delay Panetta from acting, as the responsibility for failure would then fall almost entirely on him. What Valerie Jarrett, and the
president, did not know is that Leon Panetta had already initiated
a program that reported to him –and only him, involving a covert on the ground attack against the compound. Basically, the whole damn operation was already ready to go – including the specific team support Intel necessary to engage the enemy within hours of being given notice. Panetta then made plans to proceed with an on-ground assault. This information reached either Hillary Clinton or Robert Gates first (likely via military contacts directly associated with the impending mission) who then informed the other. Those two then met with Panetta, who informed each of them he had been given the authority by the president to proceed with a mission if the opportunity presented itself. Both Gates and Clinton warned Panetta of the implications of that authority – namely he was possibly being made into a scapegoat. Panetta admitted that possibility, but felt the opportunity to get Bin Laden outweighed that risk. During that
meeting, Hillary Clinton was first to pledge her full support for Panetta,
indicating she would defend him if necessary. Similar support was then followed by Gates. The following day, and with Panetta’s permission, Clinton met in private with Bill Daley and urged him to get the president’s full and open approval of the Panetta plan. Daley agreed such approval would be of great benefit to the action, and instructed Clinton to delay proceeding until he had secured that approval. Daley contacted Clinton within hours of their meeting indicating Jarrett refused to allow the president to give that approval. Daley then informed Clinton that he too would fully support Panetta in his actions, even if it meant disclosing the president’s indecision to the American public
should that action fail to produce a successful conclusion. Clinton took that message back to Panetta and the CIA director initiated the 48 hour engagement order. At this point, the President of the United States was not informed of the engagement order – it did not originate from him, and for several hours after the order had been given and the special ops forces were preparing for action into Pakistan from their position in Afghanistan, Daley successfully kept Obama and Jarrett insulated from that order.

This insulation ended at some point with an abort order that I believe
originated from Valerie Jarrett’s office, and was then followed up by President Obama. This abort order was later explained as a delay due to
weather conditions, but the actual conditions at that time would have been
acceptable for the mission. A storm system had been in the area earlier, but was no longer an issue. Check the data yourself to confirm. Jarrett, having been caught off guard, was now scrambling to determine who had initiated the plan. She was furious, repeating the acronym “CoC” and saying it was not being followed. This is where Bill Daley intervened directly. The particulars of that intervention are not clear to me beyond knowing he did meet with Jarrett in his office and following that meeting, Valerie Jarrett was not seen in the West Wing for some time, and apparently no longer offered up any resistance to the Osama Bin Laden mission. What did follow from there was one or more brief meetings between Bill Daley, Hillary Clinton, a representative from Robert
Gates’ office, a representative from Leon Panetta’s office, and a representative from Jim Clapper’s office. I have to assume that these meetings were in essence, detailing the move to proceed with the operation against the Osama Bin Laden compound. I have been told by more than one source that Leon Panetta was directing the operation with both his own CIA operatives, as well as direct contacts with military – both entities were reporting to Panetta only at this point, and not the President of the United States. There was not going to be another delay as had happened 24 hour earlier. The operation was at this time
effectively unknown to President Barack Obama or Valerie Jarrett and it remained that way until AFTER it had already been initiated. President Obama was literally pulled from a golf outing and escorted back to the White House to be informed of the mission. Upon his arrival there was a briefing held which included Bill Daley, John Brennan, and a high ranking member of the military. When Obama emerged from the briefing, he was described as looking “very confused and uncertain.”

The president was then placed in the situation room where several of the players in this event had already been watching the operation unfold. Another interesting tidbit regarding this is that the Vice President was already “up to speed” on the operation. A source indicated they believe Hillary Clinton had personally made certain the Vice President was made aware of that day’s events before the president was. The now famous photo released shows the particulars of that of that room and its occupants. What that photo does not communicate directly is that the military personnel present in that room during the operation unfolding, deferred to either Hillary Clinton or Robert Gates. The president’s role was minimal, including their acknowledging of his presence in the room.

At the conclusion of the mission, after it had been repeatedly confirmed a
success, President Obama was once again briefed behind closed doors. The only ones who went in that room besides the president were Bill Daley. John Brennan, and a third individual whose identity remains unknown to me. When leaving this briefing, the president came out of it “…much more confident. Much more certain of himself.” He was also carrying papers in his hand that quite possibly was the address to the nation given later that evening on the Bin Laden mission.
The president did not have those papers with him prior to that briefing. The president then returned to the war room, where by this time, Leon Panetta had personally arrived and was receiving congratulations from all who were present.

In my initial communication to you of these events I described what unfolded as a temporary Coup initiated by high ranking intelligence and military officials. I stand by that term. These figures worked around the uncertainty of President Obama and the repeated resistance of Valerie Jarrett. If they had not been willing to do so, I am certain Osama Bin Laden would still be alive today. There will be no punishment to those who acted outside the authority of the president’s office. The president cannot afford to admit such a fact. What will be most interesting from here is to now see what becomes of Valerie Jarrett. One source indicated she is threatening resignation. I find that unlikely given my strong belief she needs the protection afforded her by the Oval Office and its immense powers to delay and eventually terminate investigations back in Chicago, but we shall see.

LET IT REALLY SINK IN, THEN CHOOSE

2011-05-07T11:28:00.000-07:00

John is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, 'If I were any better, I would be twins!'

He was a natural motivator.

If an employee was having a bad day, John was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.

Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up and asked him, 'I don't get it!'

'You can't be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?'

He replied, 'Each morning I wake up and say to myself, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or...you can choose to be in a bad mood

I choose to be in a good mood.'

Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or....I can choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it.

Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their complaining or...I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.

'Yeah, right, it's not that easy,' I protested.

'Yes, it is,' he said. 'Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people affect your mood.

You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. The bottom line: It's your choice how you live your life.'

I reflected on what he said. Soon hereafter, I left the Tower Industry to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often thought about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it.

Several years later, I heard that he was involved in a serious accident, falling some 60 feet from a communications tower.

After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, he was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back.

I saw him about six months after the accident.

When I asked him how he was, he replied, 'If I were any better, I'd be twins...Wanna see my scars?'

I declined to see his wounds, but I did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place.

'The first thing that went through my mind was the well-being of my soon-to-be born daughter,' he replied. 'Then, as I lay on the ground, I remembered that I had two choices: I could choose to live or....I could choose to die. I chose to live.'

'Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?' I asked.

He continued, '...the paramedics were great.

They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the ER and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, I read 'he's a dead man'. I knew I needed to take action.'

'What did you do?' I asked.

'Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me,' said John. 'She asked if I was allergic to anything 'Yes, I replied.' The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled, 'Gravity''

Over their laughter, I told them, 'I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead.'

Who's Got The Stones To Stand And Say They're Next?

2011-05-02T16:12:00.000-07:00

Well with one dumb ass who thought that ali-banana was gonna keep him safe from harm now gone, who's the next dumb ass to stand and puke forth some bullshit about how great his imaginary friend is and how he/she/or IT will kick our ass?

I can hardly wait to hear some dumb ass to stand forth and deliver his or her or its message on how WE the People of America will suffer at the hands of ali-banana or some other stupid object. Hey STUPID, BITE ME.

This was a long and drawn out affair and it should have been done with an overnight military mission, but with the IDIOTS that American has as Keepers of OUR Nation making STUPID decisions, I'm surprised it got done.

If I were in charge of rooting out bin loser, there would have been B-52's loaded with carpet bombs and starting at the country's border and flying inward into the country dropping these carpet bombs until a decision was made by these loser ragheads to give up the booty or become the booty.

But to make this easier to understand, it's not just a raghead ordeal, but ANYBODY who has a tickle up their ass and wants to get it kicked. WE the PEOPLE of the USA will gladly be there to put our foot up your ass to ease any tensions.

Also IF YOU are receiving MY TAX MONEY as a bribe to be OUR friends, BE WARNED, that should be coming to an end shortly. It's either get with it or get FUCKED, because YOU AIN'T gonna get nothing from US unless we KICK your ASS first.

Any Questions? Then talk to our great president, Big “o”

Retirement

2011-04-26T16:04:00.000-07:00

One day a man decided to retire...

He booked himself on a Caribbean cruise and proceeded to have the time of his life, that is, until the ship sank...

He soon found himself on an island with no other people, no supplies, nothing, only bananas and coconuts.

After about four months, he is lying on the beach one day when the most gorgeous woman he has ever seen rows up to the shore.

In disbelief, he asks, "Where did you come from? How did you get here?"

She replies, "I rowed over from the other side of the island where I landed when my cruise ship sank."

"Amazing," he notes. "You were really lucky
to have a row boat wash up with you."

"Oh, this thing?" explains the woman.
"I made the boat out of some raw material I found on the island.
The oars were whittled from gum tree branches. I wove the bottom from palm tree branches, and the sides
and stern came from a Eucalyptus tree."

"But, where did you get the tools?"

"Oh, that was no problem," replied the woman.
"On the south side of the island, a very unusual stratum
of alluvial rock is exposed. I found that if I fired it to a certain temperature in my kiln, it melted into
ductile iron. I used it to make tools and used the tools to make the hardware."

The guy is stunned.

"Let's row over to my place," she says.

So, after a short time of rowing, she soon docks the boat at a small wharf.
As the man looks to shore, he nearly falls off the boat. Before him is a long stone walk leading to a cabin and tree house.

While the woman ties up the rowboat with an expertly woven hemp rope, the man can only stare ahead, dumb struck. As they walk into the house, she says casually,
"It's not much, but I call it home. Sit down, please."
"Would you like a drink?"

"No! No thank you," the man blurts out, still dazed. "I can't take another drop of coconut juice."

"It's not coconut juice," winks the woman. "I have a still. How would you like a Tropical Spritz?"

Trying to hide his continued amazement, the man accepts, and they sit down on her couch to talk.
After they exchange their individual survival stories, the woman announces,
"I'm going to slip into
something more comfortable. Would you like to take a shower and shave? There's a razor in the bathroom cabinet upstairs."

No longer questioning anything, the man goes upstairs into the bathroom. There, in the cabinet is a razor
made from a piece of tortoise bone. Two shells honed to a hollow ground edge are fastened on to its end inside a swivel mechanism.

"This woman is amazing," he muses. "What's next?"

When he returns, she greets him wearing nothing
but some small flowers on tiny vines, each strategically positioned. She smelled faintly of gardenias...
She then beckons for him to sit down next to her.

"Tell me," she begins suggestively, slithering closer to him,
"We've both been out here for many months.
You must have been lonely. There's something I'm certain you feel like doing right now, something you've been longing for, right?"
She stares into his eyes.

He can't believe what he's hearing.
"You mean..." he swallows excitedly as tears start to form in his eyes,

"You've built a Golf Course?"

From the World Affairs Brief by Joe l Skousen

http://www.worldaffairsbrief.com/keytopics/Chemtrails.shtml

CHEMTRAILS: FINALLY, SOME ANSWERS

Canadian investigative reporter William Thomas has uncovered, through tenacious and prodigious research, some answers to the mysterious chemtrail issue. “Chemtrails” are chemical laden vapor trails dispersed at high altitudes by US military tanker aircraft and by some private aircraft under top-secret contracts with the US government. A draft version of Thomas’ report can be read online at http://www.nexusmagazine.com/chemtrails.html. I don’t agree with everything Thomas writes or speculates about, but I will summarize his conclusions and share my analysis of what I think is well founded.

The chemtrail phenomenon has been observed for many years in different parts of the US as well as in other allied nations. These chemtrails are primarily characterized by thick trails of white vapor, which persist for long periods of time, gradually dispersing to cover wide areas of the sky. Let’s review some of the major differences between these chemical vapor trails and the normal, harmless condensation trails (“contrails”) often emitted by aircraft. There are several critical distinguishing characteristics between these two types of emissions:

1) Chemtrails often occur at altitudes and in environmental conditions where normal contrails cannot and do not occur. According to NOAA meteorologist Thomas Schlatter, quoted in the article, “At temperatures lower than approx -40 deg F contrails almost always form, regardless of relative humidity. The higher the ambient temperature, the less likely that contrails will form. At temperatures above -40 degrees F, contrails are not expected. The persistence of contrails depends upon temperature, relative humidity, and the vigor of mixing between the exhaust plume and the ambient air. At low temperatures, with high humidity, and with stable temperature stratification (which inhibits vertical mixing of the air), contrails persist for many hours." Chemtrails also occur at altitudes where contrails occur and thus the two are mixed.

2) Chemtrails persist for many hours and spread out continuously until wide areas of the sky are covered. Contrails spread out only slightly and evaporate within 10 seconds to several hours, depending on the upper air humidity and temperature. Contrails can persist under exceptional circumstances, so this is not a definitive criteria.

3) Contrails are always pure white and don’t exhibit much halo effect. Chemtrails have an oily glint to them, with pronounced rainbow-like color effects (reddish or pinkish tint) as the sun shines through. Some of the best photographic evidence of chemtrails is found at http://www.carnicom.com/contrails.htm.

4) Contrails are composed of water vapor combined with a small amount of residue from burned jet fuel. Analysis of chemtrail residues, in contrast, claims to have uncovered a variety of chemicals and other substances, including barium, aluminum oxide, microscopic fibers and oil-based products, none of which are intrinsic to normal jet fuel.

5) Contrails exit directly behind the engines of the aircraft, which produce the moisture. Thus, aircraft will exhibit only 1, 2, 3, or 4 distinct condensation trails, each trailing an engine. Chemtrails, in contrast, are expelled from multiple ports along the entire wing surface, not directly in line with the engines. Once again, see the pictures on www.carnicom.com. These photos are perhaps the most definitive of all chemtrail evidence. Some debunkers use cropped photos of high-G manuevers which gives off aerodynamic condensation from the wing--as a supposed explanation to wing emitted chemtrails. But this is bogus. Aerodynamic condensation doesn’t occur in straight and level flight and never leaves a long contrail. It also shows up within inches of the wing trailing edge, unlike chemtrail spraying.

6) Contrails cannot be shut on and off at will, nor abruptly, as witnesses have seen in numerous sightings of chemical spraying by aircraft. I personally have seen this type of on/off spraying in Utah by two military tankers flying in loose formation. When numerous witnesses called KSL--TV in Salt Lake City to investigate, KSL dutifully parroted the government’s official response: that the aircraft was a government contractor flying a Lear jet and doing experiments on ice crystal formation. Baloney! As one of those witnesses, and an experienced pilot, I can tell you those two huge military tanker aircraft were not tiny Lear jets. The government is lying--but at least, in this case, they didn’t try to outright deny what hundreds of people were watching, as they usually do. They simply tried to take advantage of public ignorance of aircraft recognition, feeding them a phony but marginally plausible excuse.

7) Aircraft dispersing chemtrails always fly back and forth over a set area, creating circular or zig-zag patterns of vapor in the sky. Often many chemtrail aircraft can be seen in one area, flying in crisscross patterns laying down vapor trails before flying off over the horizon. Large airliners operating under Air Traffic Control fly on set airways and do not make such patterns in the sky. Government representatives have tried to pass off reports of crisscross chemtrail patterns as merely the convergence of airliner contrails at normal air traffic intersections, but this is false. For one thing, almost all airways in the US run in straight lines. Neither do airliners fly in close formation with other aircraft. In addition, chemtrail sightings almost never come close to normal airway intersections, lest they interfere with normal traffic or be observed by other airline passengers.

8) All legitimate aircraft at high altitudes emitting contrails will be acknowledged by the FAA. Conversely, the existence of aircraft spraying chemicals is always denied by the FAA, under orders from the government. You can be on a cell phone, in real time, reporting the presence of an aircraft overhead to the FAA and they will tell you that no such aircraft exists on their radar screens. They are flat-out lying. It’s amazing to me how many military pilots and government ATC controllers can so easily justify these lies. Surely some are aware of the damaging health effects reported on the internet. Occasionally, an honest controller will admit there is a “military exercise” blocked out for that area.

Many have long suspected that the government has been using these airborne chemical sprayings to test dispersal methods for mild forms of biological or chemical warfare. Indeed, chemtrail sightings have long been associated with community-wide illnesses reported in the areas of the sprayings. Thomas himself was involved in a case in Espanola, Ontario, in the spring of 1998. Residents there had been complaining of “severe headaches, chronic joint pain, dizziness, sudden extreme fatigue, acute asthma attacks and feverless ‘flu-like’ symptoms over a 50-square-mile area [which] coincided with what they termed ‘months of spraying’ by photo-identified US Air Force tanker planes.” An expert witness in the case, former Ontarion Provincial Police Officer Ted Simola, described the “lingering Xs and numerous white trails, some of which ‘just ended’ as if they had been shut off but remained in the sky,” observations consistent with other chemtrail sightings.

On November 18, 1998, the people of Espanola petitioned Parliament, suspecting possible government involvement in these airborne chemical emissions. They called upon Parliament to “repeal any law that would permit the dispersal of military chaff or of any cloud-seeding substance whatsoever by domestic or foreign military aircraft without the informed consent of the citizens of Canada thus affected.” In response to their petition, the Ministry of Defense eventually replied: “It’s not us.” The government assertion was mostly true: it was not Canadian aircraft, but US Air Force tankers which were conducting the sprayings. Yet the Canadian government was complicit in allowing the US to experiment over Canada .

Thomas did finally get an American ATC controller to talk to him, under conditions of anonymity. The controller works on the US eastern seaboard. Thomas called his contact “Deep Sky.” Deep Sky confirmed that the chemicals being spread in the exercises were acting as electrolytes, enhancing conductivity of radar and radio waves. Additionally, the spread of the material was actually degrading, not enhancing, ATC radars – so there had to be some other purpose behind the sprayings. It is significant that many of the exercises were conducted out of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, in Ohio , which, according to Thomas, “has long been deeply engaged in HAARP’s electromagnetic warfare program.” HAARP is a US government radio wave project in Alaska which could be related to weather modification. HAARP’s huge powerful transmitters and arrays of antennas are, according to the official website, designed to heat up the atmosphere above it. Phasing the antennas can skew the heating effect directionally, and may even interact with reflective layers of metal particles in Chemtrails. What is interesting is that HAARP’s location is at the 65th parallel, just south of the arctic circle. This position corresponds to the atmospheric boundary where relatively moist southern air moving northward collides with cold arctic air coming south. When these dissimilar air mass meet they rise and form new storm systems. Heating the atmosphere directly under this boundary layer would tend to accelerate storm development. Finally, through a series of questions, Deep Sky confirmed that the US tankers were indeed involved in climate modification experiments.

At this point in the article, Thomas launches into a theory that the reflective clouds are being used to reduce the effects of global warming (Edward Teller’s theory). He discusses the Welsback patent, issued in 1994 to Hughes Aircraft, [long involved in government black operations] which involves the use of a reflective blanket of aluminum-laced cloud cover to cool the earth. However, I think Thomas was fed disinformation here. The government often uses phony patents to lead investigators down the wrong trail--especially when dealing with HAARP. Global warming is a fraud. There is no way the US government would engage in this massive a cover-up and risk illness to the US population over a theory with little basis in fact and even less evidence of actual damage. Besides, government sponsored aerosol spraying has been going on before global warming became an issue.

However, the weather modification process is, in my opinion, the best explanation so far as to the widespread use of spraying. The reflective aluminum particles or fibers in the created cloud barriers cause cool spots over normally warm areas, which influence the rise or fall of air masses. These reflective layers may also react with HAARP transmissions in some way. Radio transmissions need reflective layers to channel the energy in specific directions. The creation of sun or radiation shielding may explain why spraying occurs at high altitude, during the daytime, and in cloudless areas--where the reflective shield would be visible and effective for a long time.

None of these characteristics fit a biological or chemical warfare test scenario. If the government was testing delivery methods of biological or chemical agents, it would be more likely to mix the chemicals in clouds at much lower altitudes where it would more easily precipitate downward on the population. The chemtrail sprayings always take place at high altitudes where the materials can linger or drift long distances: hardly an accurate delivery method. The sprayings are also done only in clear areas of the sky--which, again, points to weather modification.

What I’m convinced of now, is that the widespread flu-like and Alzheimer’s symptoms have been mere side effects of the sprayed chemicals, and not the direct purpose of the sprayings. The extensive use of aluminum oxide, found as the primary component of these reflective clouds, does have serious medical side effects and may well explain the upsurge in Alzheimer’s disease in the US --which is reaching epidemic proportions. I think it is also clear that the government has been experimenting with different types and mixes of chemicals, which explains why the observations and effects differ over time. Several years ago, there were many sightings of sticky droplets falling from the sky, trailing spider-web-like strands behind. Upon contact they made people very ill. Later chemical analysis has shown a lot of aluminum oxide and micro fibers, also composed of barium and aluminum. People living under these spray patterns have developed Alzheimer’s-like symptoms.

As expected, the US continues to deny any spraying as well as any experimentation in weather modification. The media is totally complicit in this cover-up as well. The allegations have been widespread over the internet for years. Thousands of inquiries have gone out to the media over the years and not once has the major media ever done a story on this issue. The health consequences are huge. Even the politically correct environmental movement has had no luck in pressing the media for coverage. There is no way to explain the media’s refusal to investigate or give coverage to this story except that they are fully aware of it and are under bogus “national security” orders to spike the story.

A US Air Force Colonel, according to Thomas, told a senator: “The Air Force is not conducting any weather modification and has no plans to do so in the future.” But as Thomas retorts, “In fact, attempts to steer hurricanes by spraying heat-robbing chemicals in their paths began in the 1950s. The recipe for creating ‘cirrus shields’ was outlined in an unusually arrogant US Air Force study. Subtitled, ‘Owning the Weather by 2025,’ the 1996 report explained how weather force specialists were dispersing chemicals behind high-flying tanker aircraft in a process the air force calls ‘aerial obscuration.’” Sounds just like what people are describing as chemtrails. Even members of Congress know about Chemtrails. The term is in the list of prohibited Space activities of Rep. Kucinich's HR 2977 “Space Preservation Act.” Because of the variety of different chemicals used in Chemtrails over the past 10 years and the changing patterns of spraying, I’m convinced the government is still experimenting and hasn’t actually found a predictable way yet to harness the weather. Sadly, this only means the secret experiments will continue and people will suffer.

EMERGENCY HEALTH POWERS ACT SPREADS TO THE STATES
The Neal Knox Report (http://www.shotgunnews.com/knox/knox.dog) mentions that “The Centers for Disease Control, which calls ‘gun violence’ a public health epidemic, has sent a ‘model law’ to state legislatures which would give state agencies unprecedented powers in the event of a public health emergency -- including the power to seize ‘private property.’ The first draft of the Model Emergency Health Powers Act -- the version introduced in some of the 14 states where it has been filed -- specifically includes the power to ‘control, restrict and
regulate ... firearms ....’ Other sections of the bill authorize seizure and destruction of ‘private property’ and exempt the state from liability.” Whenever the government engages in illegal activities they always seek for official immunity.

Here's a reason to stop and think about our current national issues

2011-04-26T15:15:00.000-07:00

A friend of mine sent this to me. Her Daughter in Law, Samantha is very intelligent. I've heard her speak before an audience and she kept everybody spellbound.

The following is from our Daughter In Law, Samantha. Sure gives you reason to stop and think about our current national issues.

Below is a wholesale price index from Germany prior to and leading into the start of the Weimar republic. Given the inflation that we are currently seeing and the trajectory of events in the world I think we are about 7 to 12 months away from the start of hyperinflation. Based on the chart below here is the Sammy theory of Obamanomics and the plan to screw us all.

Lets assume that at the point of time of the 2008 election we are equivalent to Germany in 1914. The price index is one. This is the base line. To make the math easy I'll use a loaf of bread that costs $1.00. So the world is all hunky dorey and the seas will stop rising (cue the bad mock messiah music....)

In 2009 we began to see a little bit of inflation. Ok we the taxpaying consumers saw it but Bernake kept insisting that inflation was low or non - existant. So we are now at the Jan 1919 level of inflation in Germany and our loaf of bread is $2.60. Not really a big deal right??? Go about your business nothing to see folks.

Again the start of 2010 and the Fed insists that there is no inflation - fast forward to our chart and our loaf of bread is now $3.40. Still no inflation, right.....

Fast forward to the end of 2010 and the beginning of 2011. We've had some major crop failures world wide, we're burning corn for fuel and things from December to March have crept up. China is threatening to not purchase any more of our debt. The Japanese will probably be looking to sell our bonds to raise money to pay for the earthquake. Our internal policies are not exactly inspiring confidence here and abroad.
Retailers can no longer hold prices low due to the cost of materials and fuel. Walmart, JC Penney, McDonalds and many clothing and food retailers said that they expect prices to rise dramatically in the next few months - sometime between May to August. Expect a large increase in May - August 2010 of our little loaf of bread to yes $12.60. This will be a huge shock at once or retailers could do this in increments but the end result will be the same.

We will see small increases to $14.40 and even a slight dip - after all if demand drops prices drop somewhat even in hyperinflationary times. So if the time line holds (and I'm fairly certain it will because we are following the Weimar path to a Tee) by January of 2012 we will be at the Jan-July 1921 mark in the chart below.

Given the significance of 2012 (ELECTION) in January (or sooner) we will see another round of Quantitive Easing. This is basically just printing more money. And with the election, I can assure you that a HUGE pile will be printed to keep the party going. Surf's up dude!!!!!! So by Jan of 2012 (or possibly sooner) that loaf of bread will be $36.70.

From then on it is down hill rapidly - that loaf of bread in 6 more months will be $100.60. And one year from that July of 2013 that loaf of bread will be $2785!!!! In six more months a loaf of bread will cost more than most homes in America are currently selling for. Basically prices will double almost daily. By December 2013 prices will be insane.

Now the analogy with the loaf of bread is very oversimplified. Basically we are seeing increases in the last 4 months of roughly 10 - 12% across the board. You feel an increase of that much. And due to the cost of basic commodities rising, we will see a large jump (another 10 - 25% or maybe more jump). This is what the retailers of food and clothing are warning about now.

The straw that broke the camels back in Weimar Germany and will do the same in the United States is the loss of confidence of the investors. JP Morgan ironically enough lost faith in Germany and cut off funds, p
robably around the January 1922 mark in the chart.
Things deteriorated rapidly. What this essentially means for us now is very scary. The downgrading of our future to unstable by Standard and Poore, the threat of China not buying our debt, the "need" to raise the debt ceiling, and the end of QE2 all converge in June of this year. If this is our moment of loss of confidence, like Germany experienced with JP Morgan cutting off funding, we will plunge into hyperinflation. Because our government will have no choice but to print money like there's no tomorrow because there will be no tomorrow with no funding from abroad.

I have done a lot of research on this and I can't seem to find any nation that inflated their way to prosperity. The Mugabe School of Hyperinflation is a road to hell paved with stacks of worthless paper. As you can see from the chart, once a certain threshold is crossed - the jump from 14.4 ~14.3 to 36.7 things just shoot up. This is the exponential function at its finest. 2 becomes 4, 4 becomes 8, 8 becomes 16 and so on. It doesn't take long for the problem to spiral out of control.

Hope this all makes sense. Somehow I don't see how it can add up any other way. The link to one of many articles is below.

Now just rock me to sleep with this one!!!

Love Sam

Egyptian Protester Gear / Fashion Statement

2011-02-24T16:38:00.000-08:00

Seen in Cairo over the past weeks, these are makeshift helmets
made by the Egyptians whilst scrapping in their current predicament.

Here’s a guide through these pieces of registered non-standard army kit:

Your classic 1970’s “green” ‘Tri-bottle Rag’ helmet – a must in any type of combat, made from readily available recyclable materials, and provides a soft, cushioned landing for incoming rounds

A late 80’s ‘boxhat’. The bloke next to him doesn’t appear too sure of its effectiveness

A renaissance period piece of brickwear teamed with a black and cream scarf.

Im not sure that tuna sandwich he is about to lob is gonna cause too much destruction.
Old skool 80’s broken bin helmet.
I personally love the fact he needs to lift it up to see –
does he spend the rest of the time walking in to things?

Textbook saucepaning with lifejacket combo. Defiant - he does not take any CRAP!!

Ancient Egyptian bed pan accented by Palestinian head wrap.
This guy looks like a lefty – keeping his “fast ball” left arm free
for the upcoming assault.

And the winner…
This bloke is going to war with 2 baguettes strapped to his ears and a ham salad roll seran wrapped to his forehead. I definitely wanna be behind him if someone lobs a load of bricks at me.

HOW DID THEY DO THIS IN 1931??

2011-02-18T13:23:00.000-08:00

Let's hope this happens to all of us!

2011-02-18T12:50:00.000-08:00

All golfers should live so long as to be this kind of old man!

Toward the end of the Sunday service, the Minister asked, "How many of you have forgiven your enemies?"

80% held up their hands.

The Minister then repeated his question. All responded this time, except one man, an avid golfer named Walter Barnes, who attended church only when the weather was bad.

"Mr. Barnes, it's obviously not a good morning for golf. It's good to see you here today. Are you not willing to forgive your enemies?"

"I don't have any," he replied gruffly.

"Mr. Barnes, that is very unusual. How old are you?"

"Ninety-eight," he replied. The congregation stood up and clapped their hands.

"Oh, Mr. Barnes, would you please come down in front & tell us all how a person can live ninety-eight years & not have an enemy in the world?"

The old golfer tottered down the aisle, stopped in front of the pulpit, turned around, faced the congregation, and said simply, "I outlived all the sons of bitches."

The Devil Now Owns California - Get Out While You Still Can!

2011-02-15T14:52:00.000-08:00

California laws now mandate that ALL SCHOOLCHILDREN, whether in Public, Private or Church Schools be taught to promote homosexuality and other despicable acts!

What's next? The confiscation of children at birth for government brainwashing farms like the USSR??? The homosexual raping of our children? Open abominations in the street?

What are the next laws? Outlawing traditional God-fearing religions, including the Bible, the Torah and any religious scriptures, then burning down all the churches, synagogues and Temples, or converting them for pagan idolatry??

http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=262485

California usually sets precedent for national laws - the devil loving anarchists are backing us into a corner and daring us to fight our way out. . . will they be surprised when we do!

This may very well be the straw that, "Broke the Camel's Back!"

The list of "Traitors" that voted to renew the Patriot Act

2011-02-15T14:38:00.000-08:00

Before you take a look at this list of who voted to renew the USA Patriot Act yesterday, I want you to take note of how many Republicans are on the "Yea" list.

There were 148 "Nay" votes... Take a look at how many Democrats are on that list.

Think that Republicans are exempt from being part of the "Progressive" movement?... are you that caught up in the "left/right" paradigm to think that our country's salvation rests in the good nature and platform of the Republican Party? ... This is a vivid demonstration of how willing the Republican party is to sell your freedoms and liberties out to their handlers... and you just got sold out.... They have renewed their authority to enter your home without a constitutional search warrant signed under Oath and penalty of perjury, without probable cause, without judicial review, and to seize anything you have under "gag rules" and without penalty for violations of constitutional law, all in the name of a phantom "war on terror'.

You need to watch Judge Andrew Napolitano's "Freedom Watch" on the Fox News Channel today... He reveals this list, and you will get schooled on why this act should have been rejected by Congress with a unanimous "no vote"... You will see that no one can do justice in summing it up better than "The Judge"...

If any of these Representatives that voted "Yea" on this renewal are in your district, you should make contact with him or her immediately, and give them a piece of your mind, and promise them that you will be a catalyst in seeing to it that they get thrown out of office, or that this is the last term they will serve in your district... These people are Traitors!

Do you recognize any of their names? No?

None of them starred in a movie or made a record album, hit a homerun or scored a 2 point conversion or did a celebration in the end zone after scoring a touchdown.

None of them brags about "showcasing their talents for their fans" while being paid millions and millions of dollars.

Did that help? No?

Well then I should tell you that they are all Marines who gave their lives for YOU this week. They died for honor and country. They are all heroes of the highest magnitude. How much did you read about them?

Honor THEM by forwarding this. I just did!

We are asking everyone to say a prayer for "Darkhorse" 3rd Battalion 5th Marines and their families. They are fighting it out in Afghanistan & they have lost 9 marines in 4 days.
IT WOULD BE NICE TO SEE the message spread if more could pass it on..

CANCEL My Allowance

2011-02-15T08:38:00.000-08:00

My daughter just walked into the living room and said "Dad, cancel my allowance immediately, rent my room out, throw all my clothes out of the window, take my TV, and stereo, and iPhone, and iPod, and my laptop.

Please take all of my jewelry to the charity shop. Then sell my new car, take my front door key away from me and throw me out of the house.

Then disown me and never talk to me again. Oh yea, dont forget to write me out of your will and leave my share to my siblings.

Well, she didn't actually put it like that... she actually said... "Dad this is my new boyfriend, Mohamed."

WWII - VERY IMPORTANT HISTORY

When I was a kid, I couldn't understand why Eisenhower was so popular. Maybe this will explain why.

General Eisenhower Warned Us.

It is a matter of history that when the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces, General Dwight Eisenhower, found the victims of the death camps he ordered all possible photographs to be taken, and for the German people from surrounding villages to be ushered through the camps and even made to bury the dead.

He did this because he said in words to this effect:

'Get it all on record now - get the films - get the witnesses - because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened'

This week, the UK debated whether to remove The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it 'offends' the Muslim population which claims it never occurred. It is not removed as yet.. However, this is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving into it.

It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended. This article is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the, six million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians, and 1,900 Catholic priests Who were 'murdered, raped, burned, starved, beaten, experimented on and humiliated' while many in the world looked the other way!

Now, more than ever, with Iran , among others, claiming the Holocaust to be 'a myth,' it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets.

This aricle is intended to reach 400 million people! Be a link in the memorial chain and help distribute this around the world.

How many years will it be before the attack on theWorld Trade Center
'NEVER HAPPENED',

because it offends some Muslim???

Do not forget this message; it will take only a minute to pass this along.

THE NEW AMERICAN and CPAC

2011-02-12T12:41:00.000-08:00

Author William Norman Grigg convincingly shows that the fulfillment of UN objectives would mean not only an end to nationhood, but the destruction of traditional morality, culture, and values, and the supplanting of the family with the totalitarian state.

Selwyn Duke

Many say that objection to homosexual group GOProud’s participation in the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) convention is much ado about nothing. And while these critics aren’t necessarily proud of GOProud, they often say that the conservative ranks shouldn’t be creating unnecessary division. I would agree — but necessary division is a different matter.

The question we’re confronted with here is this: If you have a cause, is it moral and wise to take support from wherever you can get it? The answer is: not enough data. And the first thing we have to consider is what form that support will take. For example, if I’m running for office and members of CAIR (the Council on American-Islamic Relations) want to vote for me (hard to imagine, I know), I won’t take the podium and indignantly say that I only want votes from devout Catholic males of half German, one-quarter Russian and one-quarter Polish ancestry who grew up in NYC. I won’t even demand that those casting ballots agree with me on one solitary issue. After all, accepting anonymous

support doesn’t compromise principle. But if I hold a convention and allow CAIR to sponsor it, it’s a different matter. Its members aren’t then just “supporters of Selwyn Duke”; they are parading under the banner of something that contradicts a significant part of my agenda. There is a profound difference between appearing as a generic supporter of a cause and claiming to support it in the name of another cause.

Now, some will point out that all sorts of groups support CPAC, and not all of them are doctrinaire conservative. This is true and is where a moral judgment must be made. If the Tea Association of the United States of America wants to support CPAC, hey, drink deeply. But we have to ask: Why are we locking arms with a group defined by sexual behavior? And before you get non-judgmental on me, think for a moment. What if it was a group that represented Nevada prostitutes, polygamists or those engaged in bestiality? It’s just a “lifestyle” choice, right? What’s the difference? I’ll tell you: Decades of social conditioning that started with shows such as Soap. There is something called being “inured.”

As to GOProud’s ideological soundness, some say that it doesn’t matter if the group supports faux marriage because it embraces the constitutional principle that the issue is for states to decide. But this ignores the fact that man does not live by legality alone; issues also have a cultural dimension. It is by far the more important one, too, as the politics eventually will follow the culture no matter what you do. And by supporting faux marriage, GOProud contributes to the twisting of the culture to a point where the states will decide wrongly. Of course, constitutionalists will always disagree on what should be done within the confines of the Constitution. But marriage isn’t state-issued food stamps; we’re talking about a foundational institution that is the nucleus of civilization’s central building block: the family.

As for the conservative family, it should also be pointed out that homosexuals represent a miniscule percentage of its vote. And most of those folks, I suspect, aren’t going to break ranks because GOProud is cast from the barracks.

If GOProud members really cared about anything resembling traditional conservatism, they would, in the least, leave faux-marriage feelings in the closet.

Remember that many of us have causes close to our hearts that, because they’re considered fringe, we don’t bring to a cause like CPAC. People with homosexual inclinations should be welcome at conservative gatherings just as they are in traditional churches’ pews, but they should be there as Americans — nothing else.

Americanism demands it.

Tale of the Donkey

2011-02-12T09:27:00.000-08:00

One day a farmer's donkey fell down a well.
The animal cried piteously for the farmer tried to figure out what to do.

Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the well needed to be covered up anyway; it just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.

He invited all his neighbours to come over and help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the donkey realized what was happening and cried horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he quietened down.

A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally looked down the well. He was astonished at what he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit his back, the donkey was doing something amazing..

He would shake it off and take a step up.

As the farmer's neighbours continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it off and take a step up..

Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped up over the edge of the well and happily trotted off!

Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of our troubles is a stepping stone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping,
never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up.

NOW .........

Enough of that crap. The donkey later came back, and bit the farmer who had tried to bury him. The gash from the bite got infected and the farmer eventually died in agony from septic shock.

MORAL FROM TODAY'S LESSON:

When you do something wrong, and try to cover
your ass, it always comes back to bite you.

HE WOULD'NT TAKE FLAG DOWN

2011-02-11T09:46:00.000-08:00

(fROM jOHN ANGELL)

Remember the Mr. Van Barfoot, the guy who wouldn't take the Flag down in his yard? See below:

On June 15, 1919, Van T. Barfoot was born in Edinburg -- probably didn't make much news back then.

Twenty-five years later, on May 23, 1944, near Carano, Italy, Van T. Barfoot, who had enlisted in the Army in 1940, set out to flank German machine gun positions from which fire was coming down on his fellow soldiers. He advanced through a minefield, took out three enemy machine gun positions and returned with 17 prisoners of war.

If that wasn't enough for a day's work, he later took on and destroyed three German tanks sent to retake the machine gun positions.

That probably didn't make much news either,given the scope of the war, but it did earn Van T. Barfoot, who retired as a colonel after also serving in Korea and Vietnam,a Congressional Medal of Honor.

What did make news last week was a neighborhood association's quibble with how the 90-year-old veteran chose to fly the American flag outside his suburban Virginia home. Seems the rules said a flag could be flown on a house-mounted bracket,but,for decorum,items such as Barfoot's 21-foot flagpole were unsuitable.

He had been denied a permit for the pole, erected it anyway and was facing court action if he didn't take it down. Since the story made national TV,the neighborhood association has rethought its position and agreed to indulge this old hero who dwells among them.

"In the time I have left I plan to continue to fly the American flag without interference," Barfoot told The Associated Press.

As well he should.

And if any of his neighbors still takes a notion to contest him, they might want to read his Medal of Honor citation.

It indicates he's not real good at backing down.

Van T. Barfoot's Medal of Honor citation:

This 1944 Medal of Honor citation, listed with the National Medal of Honor Society, is for Second Lieutenant Van T. Barfoot, 157th Infantry, 45th Infantry:

"For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of life above and beyond the call of duty on 23 May 1944, near Carano , Italy . With his platoon heavily engaged during an assault against forces well entrenched on commanding ground, 2d Lt. Barfoot moved off alone upon the enemy left flank. He crawled to the proximity of 1 machinegun nest and made a direct hit on it with a hand grenade, killing 2 and wounding 3 Germans. He continued along the German defense line to another machine gun emplacement, and with his tommygun killed 2 and captured 3 soldiers. Members of another enemy machine gun crew then abandoned their position and gave themselves up to Sgt. Barfoot. Leaving the prisoners for his support squad to pick up, he proceeded to mop up positions in the immediate area, capturing more prisoners and bringing his total count to
17. Later that day, after he had reorganized his men and consolidated the newly captured ground, the enemy launched a fierce armored counterattack directly at his platoon positions. Securing a bazooka, Sgt.Barfoot took up an exposed position directly in front of 3 advancing Mark VI tanks. From a distance of 75 yards his first shot destroyed the track of the leading tank, effectively disabling it, while the other 2 changed direction toward the flank. As the crew of the disabled tank dismounted, Sgt. Barfoot killed 3 of them with his tommygun. He continued onward into enemy terrain and destroyed a recently abandoned German fieldpiece with a demolition charge placed in the breech. While returning to his
platoon position, Sgt. Barfoot, though greatly fatigued by his Herculean efforts, assisted 2 of his seriously wounded men 1,700 yards to a position of safety.
Sgt. Barfoot's extraordinary heroism, demonstration of magnificent valor, and aggressive determination in the face of point blank fire are a perpetual inspiration to his fellow soldiers."

Mexican trucks to be rolling across U.S. in 6 months

2011-01-23T14:35:00.000-08:00

Great, now we don't need the Border Patrol watching the Southern Border, because the illegals will becoming across by the truck loads.

I'm probably crazy here, but NOW there will be more competition in the trucking industry?

How does this fit in with Oliar's MORE JOBS FOR AMERICANS?

Mexican truck drivers will be taking over the US Trucking industry and the American roadways? Great!! It's not like most illegals know how to drive a car -- they don't because they're scared of getting stopped, and now they're going to be driving Big Rigs?

Yeah, I can see how Oliar is give WE the People more jobs -- NOT!! Well maybe we'll be too busy burying the dead that we won't notice the difference.

But you read this and tell me where I went wrong.

The Weekend Interview with Walter Williams: The State Against Blacks - WSJ.com

2011-01-23T14:05:00.000-08:00

"Sometimes I sarcastically, perhaps cynically, say that I'm glad that I received virtually all of my education before it became fashionable for white people to like black people," writes Walter Williams in his new autobiography, "Up from the Projects."

Guess what Mr. Williams? While your autobiography may be correct to YOUR point of view, it quite different to what really happened to the African-American still being held in slavery.

If you were as educated on the subject as Mr. Wayne Perryman is in his book "Unfounded Loyalty" every African-American would be standing up to the KKK-Democratic Party and making their demands known.

It was the Republican Party that set your ancestors free NOT the Democratic Party of whom most of its members were made up of the KKK.

If anyone wants to be educated in Black History, I would suggest you find this GREAT book, "Unfounded Loyalty" and read it to become educated on the subject.

I can now see the left refuting this book and some leftwing wacko writing a book to refute Perryman's documented facts.

On Roe V. Wade Anniversary, Abortion Foes Increasingly Confident of 'Cultural Shift' - FoxNews.com

2011-01-23T12:19:00.000-08:00

Too bad that the real truth of the matter of abortion isn't told unto the American People. Who in the abyss of fire is responsible for abortion to begin with and what was the goal of this person?

Let's take a look at who she is and some of what she said to make people fall head over heals to follow after her ideology:

Margaret Sanger, the alcoholic and Demerol addict, who spawned the International Planned Parenthood Federation, was a proponent of forced eugenics, segregation, abortion, birth control and sexual immorality.

The main goal of this hateful person was her determination to rid the world of all black babies, and to do that she founded an organization funded by YOUR TAX DOLLARS...Yes she was that hateful.

Here are some of her quotes.
"The most merciful thing that a family does to one of its infant members is to kill it."

"Birth control must lead ultimately to a cleaner race."

Margaret Sanger, Founder of Planned Parenthood

What if 20 Million Illegal Aliens Vacated America?

2010-08-27T16:04:00.000-07:00

This info was forwarded to me and from what I've read, you don't have to be an idiot politician to figure this out. To begin with, I was thinking along these lines a long time ago, but that was before I became a writer with something to say. And now that I am, I'm posting everything that I like and then adding some of my own wit, to boot.

So here's the article:

I, Tina Griego, journalist for the Denver Rocky Mountain News wrote a column titled, "Mexican Visitor's Lament" 10/25/07.

I interviewed Mexican journalist Evangelina Hernandez while visiting Denver last week. Hernandez said, "illegal aliens pay rent, buy groceries, buy clothes. What Happens to your country's economy if 20 million people go away?" Hummm, I thought, what would happen, so I did my due diligence, buried my nose as a reporter into the FACTS I found below.

It's a good question it deserves an honest answer. Over 80% of Americans demand secured borders and illegal migration stopped. But what would happen if all 20 million or more vacated America?

The answers I found may surprise you!

In California, if 3.5 million illegal aliens moved back to Mexico, it would leave an extra $10.2 billion to spend on overloaded school systems, bankrupt hospitals and overrun prisons. It would leave highways cleaner, safer and less congested. Everyone could understand one another as English became the dominant language again.

In Colorado, 500,000 illegal migrants, plus their 300,000 kids and grand-kids would move back 'home', mostly to Mexico . That would save Coloradans an estimated $2 billion (other experts say $7 billion) annually in taxes that pay for schooling, medical, social-services and incarceration costs. It means 12,000 gang members would vanish out of Denver alone.

Colorado would save more than $20 million in prison costs, and the terror that those 7,300 alien criminals set upon local citizens. Denver Officer Don Young and hundreds of Colorado victims would not have suffered death, accidents, rapes and other crimes by illegals.

Denver Public Schools would not suffer a 67% drop-out/flunk-out rate because of thousands of illegal alien students speaking 41 different languages. At least 200,000 vehicles would vanish from our gridlocked cities in Colorado. Denver's 4% unemployment rate would vanish as our working poor would gain jobs at a living wage.

In Florida, 1.5 million illegals would return the Sunshine State back to America , the rule of law, and English.

In Chicago, Illinois, 2.1 million illegals would free up hospitals, schools, prisons and highways for a safer, cleaner and more crime-free experience.

If 20 million illegal aliens returned 'home', the U.S. Economy would return to the rule of law. Employers would hire legal American citizens at a living wage. Everyone would pay their fair share of taxes because they wouldn't be working off the books. That would result in an additional $401 Billion in IRS income taxes collected annually, and an equal amount for local, state and city coffers.

No more push '1' for Spanish or '2' for English. No more confusion in American schools that now must contend with over 100 languages that degrade the educational system for American kids. Our over-crowded schools would lose more than two million illegal alien kids at a cost of billions in ESL and free breakfasts and lunches.

We would lose 500,000 illegal criminal alien inmates at a cost of more than $1.6 billion annually. That includes 15,000 MS-13 gang members who distribute $130 billion in drugs annually would vacate our country.

In cities like L.A., 20,000 members of the '18th Street Gang' would vanish from our nation. No more Mexican forgery gangs for ID theft from Americans! No more foreign rapists and child molesters!

Losing more than 20 million people would clear up our crowded highways and gridlock. Cleaner air and less drinking and driving American deaths by illegal aliens!

America's economy is drained. Taxpayers are harmed. Employers get rich. Over $80 billion annually wouldn't return to the aliens' home countries by cash transfers. Illegal migrants earned half that money untaxed, which further drains America 's economy which currently suffers an $8.7 trillion debt.

At least 400,000 anchor babies would not be born in our country, costing us $109 billion per year per cycle. At least 86 hospitals in California, Georgia, and Florida would still be operating instead of being bankrupt out of existence because illegals pay nothing via the EMTOLA Act.

Americans wouldn't suffer thousands of TB and hepatitis cases rampant in our country-brought in by illegals unscreened at our borders.

Our cities would see 20 million less people driving, polluting and grid locking our cities. It would also put the 'progressives' on the horns of a dilemma; illegal aliens and their families cause 11% of our greenhouse gases.

Over one million of Mexico's poorest citizens now live inside and along our border from Brownsville, Texas to San Diego, California in what the New York Times called, 'colonias' or new neighborhoods. Trouble is, those living areas resemble Bombay and Calcutta where grinding poverty, filth, diseases, drugs, crimes, no sanitation and worse. They live without sewage, clean water, streets, roads, electricity, or any kind of sanitation.

The New York Times reported them to be America's new 'Third World' inside our own country. Within 20 years, at their current growth rate, they expect 20 million residents of those colonias. (I've seen them personally in Texas and Arizona; it's sickening beyond anything you can imagine.)

By enforcing our laws, we could repatriate them back to Mexico. We should invite 20 million aliens to go home, fix their own countries and/or make a better life in Mexico. We already invite a million people into our country legally more than all other countries combined annually. We cannot and must not allow anarchy at our borders, more anarchy within our borders and growing lawlessness at every level in our nation. It's time to stand up for our country, our culture, our civilization and our way of life.

Interesting Statistics!

Here are 14 reasons illegal aliens should vacate America, and I hope they are forwarded over and over again until they are read so many times that the reader gets sick of reading them:

1. $14 billion to $22 billion dollars are spent each year on welfare to illegal aliens.(that's Billion with a 'B')
http://tinyurl.com/zob77

2. $2.2 billion dollars are spent each year on food assistance programs such as food stamps, WIC, and free school lunches for illegal aliens.
http://www.cis.org/articles/2004/fiscalexec.html

3. $7.5 billion dollars are spent each year on Medicaid for illegal aliens. http://www.cis.org/articles/2004/fiscalexec.html

4. $12 billion dollars are spent each year on primary and secondary school education for children here illegally and they still cannot speak a word of English!
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0604/01/ldt.01.html

5. $27 billion dollars are spent each year for education for the American-born children of illegal aliens, known as anchor babies. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0604/01/ldt.01.html

6. $3 Million Dollars 'PER DAY' is spent to incarcerate illegal aliens. That's $1.2 Billion a year. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0604/01/ldt.01.html

7. 28% percent of all federal prison inmates are illegal aliens.
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0604/01/ldt..01.html

8. $190 billion dollars are spent each year on illegal aliens for welfare & social services by the American taxpayers. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0610/29/ldt.01.html

9. $200 billion dollars per year in suppressed American wages are caused by the illegal aliens.
http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0604/01/ldt..01.html

10. The illegal aliens in the United States have a crime rate that's two and a half times that of white non-illegal aliens. In particular, their children, are going to make a huge additional crime problem in the US. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0606/12/ldt.01.html

11. During the year 2005, there were 8 to 10 MILLION illegal aliens that crossed our southern border with as many as 19,500 illegal aliens from other terrorist countries. Over 10,000 of those were middle-eastern terrorists. Millions of pounds of drugs, cocaine, meth, heroine, crack, Guns, and marijuana crossed into the U.S.from the southern border. The link to support this point has been removed due to incriminating evidence on the part of those who originally published this fact.

12. The National Policy Institute, estimates that the total cost of mass deportation would be between $206 and $230 billion, or an average cost of between $41 and $46 billion annually over a five year period and nbsp; The link to support this point has been removed due to incriminating evidence on the part of those who originally published this fact.

13. In 2006, illegal aliens sent home $65 BILLION in remittances back to their countries of origin, to their families and friends. http://www.rense.com/general75/niht.htm

14. The dark side of illegal immigration: Nearly one million sex crimes are committed by illegal immigrants in the United States! The link to support this point has been removed due to incriminating evidence on the part of those who originally published this fact.

Total cost a whopping $538.3 BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR!

No, because 9-11 woke us up but we got lulled back to sleep by the Domestic Enemies in power, in politics, in our favorite political party...Joseph McCarthy was trying to tell us this way back when, but the Domestic Enemy got to him and silenced him because he was getting too close.
Generation by generation, the Domestic Enemy has been brainwashing the school kids by taking away the truth and filling their heads with the crap that immoral is better and freer and you can better express yourself. Brainwashed or water boarded it's all the same in the end.
And to think that we, the United States, was a country where you can practice your religion freely and openly. See how freely and openly these religious people practice.
This video tells it better than I can, because a picture is worth a thousand words.

Cap and Trade This America

2010-01-01T08:06:00.000-08:00

For those who voted this NARCISSISTIC, IDIOTIC administration into office, YOU deserve what YOU get, and here it is and I hope you love what you wanted.

You wanted to be like BACK home in Europe or Africa or China or Russia, NOW you got it and we'll see how happy you're gonna be as you loose everything you ran away from.

If you own your home you really need to check this out – at the end of this email is the Google link to verify…..If the country thinks the housing market is depressed now, wait until everyone sees this – no one will be buying homes in the future.

We encourage you to read the provisions of the Cap and Trade Bill that has passed the House of Representatives and being considered by the Senate. We are ready to join the next march on Washington ! This Congress and whoever on their staffs that write this junk are truly out to destroy the middle class of the U.S.A ....

A License will be required for your house...no longer just for cars and mobile homes....

Thinking about selling your house – Take a look at H.R. 2454 (Cap and trade bill) This is unbelievable!

Only the beginning from this administration! Home owners take note & tell your friends and relatives who are home owners!

Beginning 1 year after enactment of the Cap and Trade Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with the energy and water efficiency standards of this Act. H.R. 2454, the "Cap & Trade" bill passed by the House of Representatives, if it is also passed by the Senate, it will be the largest tax increase any of us has ever experienced. The Congressional Budget Office (supposedly non-partisan) estimates that in just a few years the average cost to every family of four will be $6,800 per year. No one is excluded. However, once the lower classes feel the pinch in their wallets, you can be sure these voters get a tax refund (even if they pay no taxes at all) to offset this new cost. Thus, you Mr. and Mrs. Middle Class America will have to pay even more since additional tax dollars will be needed to bail out everyone else.

But wait. This awful bill (that no one in Congress has actually read) has many more surprises in it. Probably the worst one is this: A year from now you won't be able to sell your house. Yes, you read that right. The caveat is (there always is a caveat) that if you have enough money to make required major upgrades to your home, then you can sell it. But, if not, then forget it. Even pre-fabricated homes ("mobile homes") are included. In effect, this bill prevents you from selling your home without the permission of the EPA administrator. To get this permission, you will have to have the energy efficiency of your home measured. Then the government will tell you what your new energy efficiency requirement is and you will be forced to make modifications to your home under the retrofit provisions of this Act to comply with the new energy and water efficiency requirements. Then you will have to get your home measured again and get a license (called a "label" in the Act) that must be posted on your property to show what your efficiency rating is; sort of like the Energy Star efficiency rating label on your refrigerator or air conditioner. If you don't get a high enough rating, you can't sell. And, the EPA administrator is authorized to raise the standards every year, even above the automatic energy efficiency increases built into the Act. The EPA administrator, appointed by the President, will run the Cap & Trade program (AKA the "American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009") and is authorized to make any future changes to the regulations and standards he alone determines to be in the government's best interest. Requirements are set low initially so the bill will pass Congress; then the Administrator can set much tougher new standards every year.

The Act itself contains annual required increases in energy efficiency for private and commercial residences and buildings. However, the EPA administrator can set higher standards at any time. Sect. 202 Building Retrofit Program mandates a national retrofit program to increase the energy efficiency of all existing homes across America . Beginning 1 year after enactment of the Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with the energy and water efficiency standards of this Act. You had better sell soon, because the standards will be raised each year and will be really hard (i.e., ex$pen$ive) to meet in a few years. Oh, goody! The Act allows the government to give you a grant of several thousand dollars to comply with the retrofit program requirements IF you meet certain energy efficiency levels. But, wait, the State can set additional requirements on who qualifies to receive the grants. You should expect requirements such as "can't have an income of more than $50K per year", "home selling price can't be more than $125K", or anything else to target the upper middle class (and that's YOU) and prevent them from qualifying for the grants. Most of us won't get a dime and will have to pay the entire cost of the retrofit out of our own pockets. More transfer of wealth, more "change you can believe in." Sect. 204 Building Energy Performance Labeling Program establishes a labeling program that for each individual residence will identify the achieved energy efficiency performance for "at least 90 percent of the residential market within 5 years after the date of the enactment of this Act."

This means that within 5 years 90% of all residential homes in the U.S. must be measured and labeled. The EPA administrator will get $50M each year to enforce the labeling program. The Secretary of the Department of Energy will get an additional $20M each year to help enforce the labeling program. Some of this money will, of course, be spent on coming up with tougher standards each year..

Oh, the label will be like a license for your car. You will be required to post the label in a conspicuous location in your home and will not be allowed to sell your home without having this label. And, just like your car license, you will probably be required to get a new label every so often - maybe every year. But, the government estimates the cost of measuring the energy efficiency of your home should only cost about $200 each time. Remember what they said about the auto smog inspections when they first started: that in California it would only cost $15. That was when the program started. Now the cost is about $50 for the inspection and certificate; a 333% increase. Expect the same from the home labeling program. Sect. 304 Greater Energy Efficiency in Building Codes establishes new energy efficiency guidelines for the National Building Code and mandates at 304(d) that 1 year after enactment of this Act, all state and local jurisdictions must adopt the National Building Code energy efficiency provisions or must obtain a certification from the federal government that their state and/or local codes have been brought into full compliance with the National Building Code energy efficiency standards.

Time to Clean House, Both House and Senate

2009-12-31T16:08:00.000-08:00

On December 19, 2009, Senator Ben Nelson, democrat, from Nebraska was granted immunity by the democratic Senate leadership from Medicaid funding mandates that all other states will be required to pay in return for his vote to pass the Senate Health Reform Bill. Two weeks ago, Senator Mary Landrieu, democrat from Louisiana acquired $300,000,000.00 from the Senate democratic leadership for the State of Louisiana in return for her vote to save the Senate Health Care Reform Bill. Would you consider this blackmail, bribery, corruption at its highest level?

Certainly an option very worthy of your consideration!

Pass It On For Our Country

And the memory of our Founding Fathers

At least read this. Form your own opinion, even if you disagree with this issue, but at least read it.. You and I owe that to our country

All I ask is that you consider the suggestion here.

The entire Congress of the United States is corrupt.. And I mean both Houses and I mean both major parties.

I realize that a few Members of each House are trustworthy, but, as a group they are absolutely the most corrupt bunch to ever disgrace our Nation.

In November of 2010 the entire House of Representatives will stand for re-election; all 435 of them. One third of the Senate, a total of 33 of them, will also stand for re-election.

Vote every incumbent out.

And I mean every one of them. No matter their Party affiliation.

Let's start all over in the House of Representatives with 435 people who have absolutely no experience in running that body, with no political favors owed to anyone but their own constituents. Let's make them understand that they work for us.

They are answerable to us and they simply have to run that body with some common sense.

Two years later, in 2012, vote the next third of the incumbents in the Senate out.

We can do the same thing in 2014 and, by that time we will have put all new people in that body as well.

We, the People, have got to take this Country back and we HAVE to do it peacefully.

That's what the Framers of our Constitution envisioned.

I am also suggesting term limits on the NEW BUNCH --

8 YEARS FOR REPRESENTATIVES.

AND 12 YEARS [2 terms] FOR SENATORS.

NO EXCEPTIONS.

THE LONGER THEY STAY INOFFICE THE MORE POWER THEY GET AND THEY LOVE IT AND WILL DO ANYTHING TO GET RE-ELECTED..

WE HAVE TERM LIMITED THE PRESIDENT –

NOW LET'S TERM LIMIT THE LEGISLATORS.

And we do away with their Special Retirement system and their health program (they should have same health programs everyone else in America does). When they are through serving their country they go back to being private citizens. They should view their service as a privilege; after all it was designed to be a part time job to represent the voice of the people, NOT the special interest groups and those who can do favors for them.If they don’t like this proposal then don’t run for office…

Please, if you love this Country, send this (as I have done) to absolutely everyone whose email address appears in your address book.

This thing can permeate this Country in no time.

Let's make it happen.

THIS MOVEMENT IS A RAPIDLY GROWING GRASS ROOTS MOVEMENT TO TAKE BACK CONTROL OF OUR GOVERNMENT.

Trumanisms

2009-12-30T17:51:00.000-08:00

I'm not a fan to Harry Truman, but this could make me one very quickly.

Harry Truman was a different kind of President. He probably made as many, or more important decisions regarding our nation's history as any of those other 42 Presidents preceding him. However, a measure of his greatness may rest on what he did after he left the White House.

The only asset he had when he died was the house he lived in, which was in Independence Missouri. His wife had inherited the house from her mother and father and other than their years in the White House, they lived their entire lives as a couple there.

When he retired from office in 1952, his income was a U.S. Army pension reported to have been $13,507.72 a year. Congress, noting that he was paying for his stamps and personally licking them, granted him an 'allowance' and, later, a retroactive pension of $25,000 per year.

After President Eisenhower was inaugurated, Harry and Bess drove home to Missouri by themselves. There was no Secret Service following them.

When offered corporate positions at large salaries, he declined, stating, "You don't want me. You want the office of the President, and that doesn't belong to me. It belongs to the American people and it's not for sale."

Even later, on May 6, 1971, when Congress was preparing to award him the Medal of Honor on his 87th birthday, he refused to accept it, writing, "I don't consider that I have done anything which should be the reason for any award, Congressional or otherwise."

As president he paid for all of his own travel expenses and food.

Modern politicians have found a new level of success in cashing in on the Presidency, resulting in untold wealth. Today, many in Congress also have found a way to become quite wealthy while enjoying the fruits of their offices. Political offices are now for sale. (e.g. Illinois )

Good old Harry Truman was correct when he observed, "My choices in life were either to be a piano player in a whore house or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference!

These folks have the right idea!!!

FT. HOOD vs. ISRAEL

Israelis Baffled by News of Defenseless US Soldiers

Many Israelis want to know: why didn't the soldiers attacked by a U.S. Army major-turned-terrorist return fire?

When a Muslim goes, well, Muslim in Israel he is typically shot to death by someone--say, a reserve soldier--within seconds of screaming "Allah Akbar."

In contrast with the Israeli experience, it took 10 minutes before a civilian police officer at Fort Hood was able to shoot and stop Muslim fanatic Nidal Malik Hasan.

How could that happen? How could so many people trained in the strategies and tactics of modern warfare be so defenseless?

The answer--and this may astonish many Americans--is that the victims were unarmed. U.S. soldiers are not allowed to carry guns for personal protection, even on a 340-acre base quartering more than 50,000 troops.

So it goes in brain-dead, liberal America .

Fort Hood is a "gun free" zone, thanks to regulations adopted in one of the very first acts signed into law by anti-gun President Bill Clinton in March, 1993. Click here for the file.

Contrary to President Obama's crocodile tears, his administration is bent on further disarming the U.S. military, and all Americans. Obama and his people will not rest until every American is a sitting duck..

POSTscript: Israeli teachers, from kindergarten on up, are also armed; so, a Virginia Tech-type slaughter is highly unlikely at an Israeli university.

Israelis, who have had to combat terrorism all their lives, are not afraid of guns. They are an armed people, ready, willing, and able to defend themselves and their country.

Unlike indoctrinated Americans, paralyzed by fear and political correctness, Israelis understand that people, not guns, kill people.

When will we ever learn?

VERY EMBARRASSING!!!

2009-12-30T17:28:00.000-08:00

- Obama Crotch Salute -

Remember: Re-Elect No One!

The POTUSA (President of the United States of America) at Ft. Hood, Texas on Nov. 11, 2009... "Honoring" the 13 dead Obama refuses to salute, come to attention or even place his hand on his heart as the honor guard passes at the Memorial Service for those killed by a fellow Muslim terrorist at Fort Hood.!!

If this does not offend you nothing will!
I'm embarrassed that the World would see this.

ALL AMERICA NEEDS TO SEE THIS, BECAUSE OBAMA
IS AN IDIOT WHO WOULD RATHER PLAY WITH HIMSELF
THAN HONOR OUR MILITARY.

Domestic Enemy

2009-12-30T04:51:00.000-08:00

We as Oath Keepers at one time or another swore or affirmed our oath to support and defend the Constitution of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic, did we not?

So, I decided to find out what a particular phrase in this oath meant to the people who swore this oath.

My question was presented to active and retired firefighters, EMTs, law enforcement, military, politicians, civilians and to women who were not associated with the above groups.

It was amazing to hear the answers to my question, and that one would think that the enemy could be recognized hands down.

My question was, “Who is a domestic enemy?”

Most of the answers were on the order of: Anyone who lives within the borders of the United States and tries to disrupt or take over our government (most of the groups of the ‘alphabet soup’ came into play with this explanation).

Other explanations were along the same line of thought where a person or persons become a threat to disrupt our Constitution and our Freedoms such as where they threaten the civility and stability of the United States of America.

The second most popular answer was: ‘Any traitor to the United States who would sell State secrets to enemy countries, identity thieves, or a person like a rapist, an arsonist or a murderers who commits crimes against other people.

My second question that I asked was, “Would you be able to recognize a domestic enemy walking down the street or through your neighborhood?”

The puzzled looks that I got spoke louder than their words. Everyone stated that they could not recognize a domestic enemy, and one person stated that only a trained behaviorist could make that identification.

In a blog by Connor Boyack entitled, ‘Domestic Enemies of the Constitution’ he states: “How, then, can so many people swear to defend the Constitution from its enemies, yet remain unaware as to who such enemies are…?”

So as Oath Keepers, how does the issue of knowing who a Domestic Enemy is affect us, both individually and collectively if we are unaware of who he or she may be?

We can't be unaware, but we must diligent in order to support the Front Line Members of the Oath, for the enemy as does a thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy.

Remember, NOT ON OUR WATCH!

Martial Law and the Detention of American Citizens

2009-12-30T04:48:00.000-08:00

I was speaking to an individual the other day and the conversation came up about being ready for a disaster and what he and I would do if something like this were to happen.

Immediately, Katrina came to mind and how the people there were not ready for such a thing to happen, but what if something like that were to happen again in the United States, today?

Well what can I say, because we just had an underwear bomber who was going to enter into his believed netherworld as a eunuch to mesmerize his many virgins.

Back on point, we spoke about having ‘to go bags or emergency boxes’ that were already prepared for such an emergency, and I know that there are some people who have such prepared just in case, as do I.

It’s not that I’m expecting something to happen; it’s just that no one really knows when a disaster or an emergency will strike.

But the bigger question is, ‘Where do we go and what do we do if a disaster were to happen?’

Is the city where we live prepared to respond to such an incident or greater catastrophe at a moment’s notice?

New Orleans was supposed to be, but as it turned out, it was far from being prepared. I know that the First Responders in our cities do practice drills as does the military, BUT..?

Will our local ‘First Responders’ be there to direct the traffic out of town or will they direct us to a staging area out in the middle of nowhere to a ready prepared site, much like the people were directed to the ‘Super Dome’ of Katrina? Not that the Super Dome was out in the middle of nowhere.

Will FEMA come in and take control of the situation and make our local ‘First Responders’ step down because FEMA is supposed to be more ready to handle emergencies than First Responders?

Will all who refuse to cooperate with FEMA be designated as ‘Enemy Combatants’ if we refuse to cooperate with FEMA?

Will all of the men and young boys be forced to handle the clean-up of the mess from the holocaust, under the direction of FEMA guards?

Will the women and young children remain interned in that desolate area somewhere to clean, and keep the place prepared for the returning workforce in the evening?

The next question is would all of our personal belongs, food, currency, and weapons (should we have one) be confiscated from us and the food and clothing rationed back to us as a group of interned individuals?

In these situations, the President can order Marshal Law, since it has precedence already from the 1987 Iran-Contra Scandal.

What happened at that time was a plan was devised that the Constitution would be suspended and martial law would be imposed, internment camps set up and the government turned over to the President and FEMA.

Again in 1987, it was reported that FEMA had plans to combat a national uprising by African-American militants, and was able to provide detention for at least 21 million people.

Even plans were in the process for the military to be deployed on American streets, and that’s why the U.S. Military had created a Northern Command to aid Homeland Security.

You say it couldn’t happen? What happened in 1941? Japanese-American citizen were rounded up and placed in detention or concentration camps.

What happened in New Orleans in 2005 when Katrina struck?

Today there are rumors about military training in California for the coming incarceration of American citizens.

Talk about Interpol being exempt in some circumstances; yet the United Nations is exempt from all, because the U.S. is a member and therefore their troops can come on UN soil, which we are, and take control.

Rumors are running rampant and spreading like wildfire, and each have to be checked out naturally, but make sure it’s a reliable source.

Are you ready? Will it be in 2010?

Remember, it’s our job as Oath Keepers to make sure that those who enforce the law know what the law is, because those who are sworn in may not know the fullness of their oath, because the domestic enemy is hidden within.

Remember, some of these Oath Takers may not know that the Constitution of the United States prohibits the internment of Americans without charges or trial.

Furthermore, they may not care that it states that this internment would be acts of war and treason against the American people, regardless of the legal pretext that the domestic enemy insist is Constitutional.

What would we as citizens of the United States do if this would happen to us? Could it happen to We the People is a better question.

There are many naysayers out there trying to play this down, and if we are unaware, tomorrow we could be…

As Oath Keepers, we must reach out to our local First Responders, our National Guard, our local Military personnel so they know that they do not have to obey an unlawful order, according to the Constitution, because our socialist public school system doesn’t want We the Free People to know the truth.

Let it not happen on our watch.

Freedom Fighters Still Live in the 21st Centry

2009-12-21T18:54:00.000-08:00

I used to write for my local newspaper here in Mesquite, Nevada until I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. It was at that time, that I gave the editor my resignation notice due to my situation, for I wanted to spend that time to study what I had and what could be done on my part for this type of cancer.

So, it was during this time that in March of 2009 that I came across an article in the WorldNetDaily online edition about Oath Keepers. I read the article by Bob Unruh entitled, "Soldiers Pledge to refuse disarmament demands." Needless to say, I was amazed at what I read.

I was in the US Navy from 1963 until 1967, and I don't remember taking such an oath, but that's been many moons ago, and things like that to a young buck generally gets overlooked due to the state of mind that one's in at the time.

I was raised in a disciplined family from a young age, and that gave me direction and understanding of what I wanted to do with the rest of my life. I don't regret joining the Navy and serving my Country even when it was unpopular, but the unpopular were really the ones with no direction in life.

I don't regret the disciplined home that I was raised within, but I'm sad that many a young man and young woman has missed such a great opportunity and even opted out not to become military oriented as I and my generation, even though there was much descent.

But back to where I first heard about the Oath Keepers. I remember reading this article and it came at the right time that I needed it, for I was writing an article at the time that went right along with this WorldNetDaily article's ideology: Oath Keepers, Not On Our Watch!

And so, I began to talk about the ideology of the Oath Keepers at that time and the FEMA Death Camps, and how that our military would NOT guard the camp's entry gates to keep the citizens hostage.

But then one day at work this month, I was walking past a news stand and the headline in the Las Vegas Review Journal News Paper read, "Ready to Revolt" caught my eye, and I couldn't go any further until I read the article.

I knew then that I would join this organization to support the law enforcement officers and the military personnel who would not intern my fellowmen and women who were innocent bystanders in a government that could explode into turmoil.

In reading the LV Review Journal, I noticed that a usual Hate America group was there throwing comments bombs around which seem to only come from their mouth. Lies of racism, hate, and everything else negative.

This just emboldened me the more to become an Oath Keeper, just because of the lies and undocumented and unsupported proof and the propaganda of what the enemy states and stands for.

I then began to talk to people where I work and my family and friends about the Oath Keepers, and low and behold, the people whom I talked to began to join, and others just scoffed at me; however, that was expected.

To me, having a group like Oath Keepers means that never again will people be subjugated like they were during Katrina and enslaved within the locked 'Superdome' on our watch.

It's going to take time, I know, because many have been brainwashed into thinking that the lie is the truth and vice versa.

However, NOT ON OUR WATCH!

President George H.W. Bush Walks on His Namesake

2009-12-21T18:53:00.000-08:00

May 26, 2009, namesake former President George H. W. Bush was airlifted aboard the USS Bush. - Did you read it in papers or see it on TV?

On May 26, 2009, namesake former President George H. W. Bush was airlifted aboard the USS Bush for a one day visit. It had been his greatest wish to watch flight operations from the flight deck of the navy's newest nuclear powered aircraft carrier and to meet the Sailors. As a decorated former naval aviator in World War II, this has a special significance for him. He was accompanied by his daughter (and the ship's sponsor) "Doro" Bush Koch.

They observed flight ops from the flight deck and the bridge, dined with officers in the Flag Mess and watched night flight ops from the Flag Bridge . The next morning he dined in the Chief's Mess and was escorted around, meeting and greeting Sailors. Finally, we had the crew assembled in hangar bay 2. The CO pointed out that June 12th is his birthday (he'll be 85 years old) and nearly 2,500 Sailors sang happy birthday to him. He then swore in re-enlistees and read the promotion orders to all recently advanced Sailors (and there were a bunch of them). Lastly, he spoke to the crew. It was quite a moment - at the end of his short remarks, he looked up, paused for a second, and said "This ship means the world to me.." and he then broke down for a few seconds. There wasn't a dry eye in the hangar bay. He then continued on and thanked every one of the crew for their service to the country and for making him proud as one of 'his' Sailors'.

This may have been the first time in US Navy history that a ship's namesake (certainly an aircraft carrier) not only was alive at the time of commissioning, but was healthy enough to go aboard when the ship was at sea.

Tea Party Kickoff Rally a Huge Success

2009-12-21T18:46:00.000-08:00

Hi everyone! We've now launched the Tea Party Express II: Countdown to Judgment Day with a giant rally in San Diego. It was incredible!! The crowd was huge - numbering in the thousands! The sun was shining on this naval town with our rally on the water and the U.S.S. Midway serving as the backdrop. Sorry Keith Olbermann and any critics of the Tea Party Express - but "We The People" came together in San Diego today and our voice was heard!
I can't begin to tell you how exciting the event was and how meaningful it was for all of us. If you were there you know the energy that radiated through the crowd.
The speakers at the rally were great - including nationally syndicated radio talk show host, Roger Hedgecock and California conservative hero, Chuck DeVore, who is challenging Barbara Boxer for Congress. The musical performers were great. It just doesn't get any better than this.

We'll be posting continuous updates on the tour at our blog:

Barney Frank present during Marijuana bust

2009-12-21T18:26:00.000-08:00

Rep. Barney Frank admitted Friday that he was sitting on the porch of his partner’s Maine home when police came to arrest his partner for marijuana possession.

Frank, responding to new reports that he was present during the Aug. 2007 arrest of James Ready, said in a statement he was unaware Ready had marijuana plants.
According to a police report obtained by MyFoxBoston, Maine police arrested and charged James Ready with marijuana possession, cultivation and use of drug paraphernalia. He pleaded guilty to civil possession and paid a fine. The remaining charges were dismissed last year.

Frank is the author of a medical marijuana bill that would outlaw the prosecution of persons who use marijuana for medicinal purposes.

Frank was not charged.

My question is why Frank was not arrested as an accessory after the fact? He was siiting on the porch while the perp was committing the crime.

Breaking News: Not All Racial Profiling Is Un-American

2009-12-21T18:22:00.001-08:00

By John Lillpop Tuesday, November 10, 2009

In post-rational America, racial profiling has become the ‘go to’ defense for those who are as guilty as hell but need some way to escape justice.

The lengths to which some minorities will go to exploit racial profiling are both maddening and mind boggling.

An example, as reported, in part, at discriminations.com back in 2004:

“OAKLAND—Oakland police officers have stopped setting up roadblocks to check whether drivers are under the influence because of a rash of complaints from the Latino community and City Council President Ignacio De La Fuente.
“The checkpoints, which allow officers to demand licenses and proof of insurance, are an effective way to get drunken drivers off Oakland’s streets, city leaders agree. But the checks also have ensnared dozens of illegal immigrants who are not licensed to drive yet otherwise obey the law.”

Why would any responsible, thinking adult conclude that protecting illegal immigrants is a greater priority than getting drunken drivers off the road? What would motivate such stupidity?

The answer: Hispanic racism.

Ignacio De La Fuente was so obsessed with protecting fellow Hispanics that he lost sight of the needs of the community at large.

Unfortunately, De La Fuente is hardly alone in his willingness to sacrifice the greater good in order to carry water for illegal aliens because those criminals happen to be Hispanic.

As reported, in part, at rollcall.com, the Hispanic caucus in the House of Representatives threatened to sabotage Nancy Pelosi’s health care blowout in order to advance the cause of illegal aliens:

“Congressional Hispanic Caucus Chairwoman Nydia Velázquez (D-N.Y.) warned President Barack Obama on Thursday that 20 members of her caucus are prepared to vote against the House Democratic health care plan if language restricting the rights of illegal immigrants to buy insurance is added to the bill.

“Velázquez met with Obama at the White House with a handful – you’ll have to go here to read the rest of the article from the Canadian Free Press http://bit.ly/2DJ5VB

The Misnomer of Radical Islam America’s Security Blunder

2009-12-21T18:13:00.001-08:00

June 27, 2008
by Martel Sobieskey

Before this article is read by you, here is what qualifies Mr. Sobieskey's statements which by the way I agree with wholehartedly.

Martel Sobieskey has 35 years research experience in the field of religious conditioning and its relationship to warfare. He is greatly alarmed that American politicians, educators, and security personnel have failed to comprehend the deeply entrenched Jihadist religious conditioning inherent in Islam.

There is the erroneous assertion that Radical Islam is not connected with mainstream (moderate) Islam in any way, that the religion of Islam has been “hijacked by a few extremists” that the vast majority of Muslims do not agree with the Islamofascists. Such thinking is a terrible error and a grave threat to America’s national security, especially in this age of nuclear terrorism.

So what is Radical Islam and what should it be properly named? Radical Islam is actually the Islamic Military. The so-called radicals are not a fringe element; they are fully supported by the worldwide Islamic community (Ummah). If they were a fringe element, they would have been defeated long ago. The fight rages on because of strong support from the moderates both covertly and overtly. This means the Islamic Military (wrongly labeled radicals) is intimately connected with moderate Muslims who we have mistakenly labeled as innocent bystanders.

Moderate Muslims are not innocent bystanders. Moderate Muslims provide the base of operations which makes it possible for the Islamic Military to continue their terrorist operations. Hate America, demands to replace constitution with the Koran, and outbursts for Sharia law are preached openly from nearly every Mosque in America under the guise of freedom of speech and religion. Freedom of speech and religion has morphed into a weaponized tool of Islamic psychological warfare which is defeating America’s will to protect her national security. Any American who says Islam is less than perfect may become the victim of an unfair lawsuit by a “moderate” Muslim organization.

Why can one be so certain about this fact? The answer is the Koran. The Koran fuses together both moderates and their military. No Muslim dares to contradict the Koran because the penalty is — death and loss of personal salvation. The moderate Muslims of every nation, including those in America fully support their Islamic military because worldwide conquest is the primary religious duty of all Muslims. Fellow Americans if you believe that your local Muslims are not secretly harboring in their hearts an agenda for the conquest of America by Islam then you are dead wrong, and understand nothing about the Koran.

Moderate Muslims may not carry weapons and murder innocent people hands on, but they play the role of “wolves in sheep’s clothing”. Moderate Muslims use two primary strategies to make conquest for Islam. The first is dawa, which is influence peddling, “wining and dining” and manipulation. You make conquest by “pleasing” your opponent, “buttering them up” — bribery and back room dealings are common place. There is a “ton” of Muslim oil money buying preferential treatment for Islam in America. The second is taqiyya, which is outright deception and lying. Deception and lying to infidels as a strategy of conquest is one of Islam’s most valued “weapons”, a precedent set by the prophet Mohammed himself. Americans hear this deception everyday with proclamations that “Islam is a religion of peace.” This phrase is an excellent example of successful psychological warfare which has caused Americans to let down their guard, and made us very vulnerable to future terrorist attacks, even possible nuclear attacks as several experts have pointed out.

Recent history proves that the “so called peaceful Muslims” work as a team with their Islamic Military. They immigrate to a country touting what peaceful law abiding citizens they are, establish themselves, build mosques, increase their numbers and “bingo” terrorists acts start occurring in the host country. Do the attacks in Spain, England, France, Thailand, Bali, the Philippines, Holland, Sweden and the USA ring any bells here? All these attacks have been preceded by the establishment of moderate mosque communities which in turn became footholds from which the Islamic military could launch their terrorist attacks. The larger the percentage of Muslims that occupy a country the greater the havoc they wreak. The situation is directly proportional. Reducing the percentage of Muslims that dwell in the host country is the most effect way of stopping terrorism. Western governments must evaluate this fact very seriously if they wish to win the war against Islamofascism long term.

Have we Americans become gullible fools? As long as we fail to deal aggressively and comprehensively with the intimate Koranic connection between the moderate Muslims and their Islamic military we can never stop the terrorist attacks. Have you ever wondered why, so numerous the complaints worldwide, that Muslims are not assimilating into their host nation? It is because they are not there to assimilate — they are there to conqueror the host country for Islam as their Koran requires. Fellow Americans please read the Koran for your self. Don’t take my word on it. You will learn first hand that anyone who tells you that Islam is a religion of peace is insulting your intelligence. The Penguin Classic edition, The Koran, translated by the Arab Scholar N. J. Dawood is a well respected version having sold over a million copies worldwide.

The best description of the symbiotic Koranic relationship between the moderates and their military comes from the Muslims themselves. They have a saying, “the poisonous fish swim in the sea”. The “poisonous fish” are the militants and the “sea” is the moderate mosque community. For example, for their 9/11 operation, the Islamic Military (poisonous fish) used the Al Farouq mosque in New York as the “sea” from which they “swam” to pulverize the trade towers. The next poisonous fish may be swimming from the sea of your local Mosque community with a nuclear explosion. Wake up Americans we are not fighting with bows and arrows anymore. We must take aggressive preventative measures to stop the Islamic military’s “euphoric” obsession to make a nuclear attack on American soil.

It is a great mistake to continue calling the Islamic military radicals because the term “radicals” has blinded us to think that the moderates are not in cahoots with their Islamic Military. In so doing we have violated the primary dictum of warfare which is to know and understand one’s enemy. Consequently, we have failed to understand that the Islam of Osama Bin Laden is main stream Islam – not a radical fringe. Osama Bin Laden is one of the generals of the Islamic military which is fully supported by the worldwide community of moderate Muslims, including American Muslims. Both moderate Muslims and their military have the same goal which is the Islamic conquest of the entire world — this is the primary religious duty of all Muslims as required by the Koran. Americans desperately need to understand this fact if they wish to protect their country from great harm.

Our Government at Work

2009-12-21T18:12:00.000-08:00

You've got to be kidding!!! Other folks would get fired if they did this on the job...time to fire them all!!!

House Minority Leader Lawrence F. Cafero Jr., R-Norwalk, pictured standing, far right, speaks while colleagues Rep Barbara Lambert, D-Milford and Rep. Jack F. Hennessy, D-Bridgeport, play solitaire. This happened when the House was in a night session to vote on the new budget. (AP)

The guy sitting in the row in front of these two is on Facebook. The guy behind Hennessy is checking out the baseball scores.

These are the folks that can't get the budget out by Oct. 1. Now we know why!
So, they voted to approve a 30 day budget extension. With these clowns in charge, 30 days from now we will be in the same boat, and these 2 yo-yo’s will still be playing SOLITAIRE!

No further proof is needed. It is time to dump them all, and reduce all elected officials to two terms.
No more lifelong tenure, free healthcare, exorbitant pensions, voting in their own pay raises, etc.

Rules for Radicals

2009-12-21T18:08:00.001-08:00

Knowing this rules helps one to combat the enemy. If you know your enemy, you know how to defeat your oppressor. Therefore I have posted these here to help us overcome -- fighting fire with fire.

Get to know Them....

In 1971, Saul Alinsky wrote an entertaining classic on grassroots organizing titled Rules for Radicals. Those who prefer cooperative tactics describe the book as out-of-date. Nevertheless, it provides some of the best advice on confrontational tactics. Alinsky begins this way:
What follows is for those who want to change the world from what it is to what they believe it should be. The Prince was written by Machiavelli for the Haves on how to hold power. Rules for Radicals is written for the Have-Nots on how to take it away.
His “rules” derive from many successful campaigns where he helped poor people fighting power and privilege
For Alinsky, organizing is the process of highlighting what is wrong and convincing people they can actually do something about it. The two are linked. If people feel they don’t have the power to change a bad situation, they stop thinking about it.

According to Alinsky, the organizer — especially a paid organizer from outside — must first overcome suspicion and establish credibility. Next the organizer must begin the task of agitating: rubbing resentments, fanning hostilities, and searching out controversy. This is necessary to get people to participate. An organizer has to attack apathy and disturb the prevailing patterns of complacent community life where people have simply come to accept a bad situation. Alinsky would say, “The first step in community organization is community disorganization.”

Through a process combining hope and resentment, the organizer tries to create a “mass army” that brings in as many recruits as possible from local organizations, churches, services groups, labor unions, corner gangs, and individuals.

Alinsky provides a collection of rules to guide the process. But he emphasizes these rules must be translated into real-life tactics that are fluid and responsive to the situation at hand.

Rule 1: Power is not only what you have, but what an opponent thinks you have. If your organization is small, hide your numbers in the dark and raise a din that will make everyone think you have many more people than you do.

Rule 2: Never go outside the experience of your people.
The result is confusion, fear, and retreat.

Rule 3: Whenever possible, go outside the experience of an opponent. Here you want to cause confusion, fear, and retreat.

Rule 4: Make opponents live up to their own book of rules. “You can kill them with this, for they can no more obey their own rules than the Christian church can live up to Christianity.”

Rule 5: Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. It’s hard to counterattack ridicule, and it infuriates the opposition, which then reacts to your advantage.

Rule 6: A good tactic is one your people enjoy. “If your people aren’t having a ball doing it, there is something very wrong with the tactic.”

Rule 7: A tactic that drags on for too long becomes a drag. Commitment may become ritualistic as people turn to other issues.

Rule 8: Keep the pressure on. Use different tactics and actions and use all events of the period for your purpose. “The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition. It is this that will cause the opposition to react to your advantage.”

Rule 9: The threat is more terrifying than the thing itself. When Alinsky leaked word that large numbers of poor people were going to tie up the washrooms of O’Hare Airport, Chicago city authorities quickly agreed to act on a longstanding commitment to a ghetto organization. They imagined the mayhem as thousands of passengers poured off airplanes to discover every washroom occupied. Then they imagined the international embarrassment and the damage to the city’s reputation.

Rule 10: The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative. Avoid being trapped by an opponent or an interviewer who says, “Okay, what would you do?”

Rule 11: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, polarize it. Don’t try to attack abstract corporations or bureaucracies. Identify a responsible individual. Ignore attempts to shift or spread the blame.

According to Alinsky, the main job of the organizer is to bait an opponent into reacting. “The enemy properly goaded and guided in his reaction will be your major strength.”Delete Comment

Murdoch: Glenn Beck Right on Obama 'Racist'

2009-12-21T18:06:00.000-08:00

Newsmax.com Wednesday, November 11, 2009 3:28 PM

In an interview with his own Sky News Australia, News Corp. chief Rupert Murdoch said he agreed with Glenn Beck's view that President Barack Obama's has made racist comments.

“He did make a very racist comment about blacks and whites, etc, which, he said in his campaign he’d be completely above,” Murdoch told the interviewer. “And, that was something which perhaps shouldn’t have been said about the president. If you actually assess what he (Beck) was talking about, he was right.”

Beck made the comments in July after the arrest of Obama’s close friend, the scholar Henry Louis Gates, by a white Cambridge police officer. Beck was making the larger point that instead of letting the facts speak for themselves, Obama immediately drew the most sinister interpretation of the police officer’s motives.

"This president, I think, has exposed himself as a guy, over and over and over again, who has a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture," Beck said. "I don't know what it is."

"I'm not saying he doesn't like white people," Beck said. "I'm saying he has a problem. He has a -- this guy is, I believe, a racist."

On Wednesday, a News Corp. spokesman stressed to Politico that Murdoch “does not at all, for a minute, think the president is a racist.”
If Obama was a racist how does he live with himself, since he is both white and black? I think that Obama does have a problem and it's because of his education from a bunch of Idiots. Just a monkeys beget monkeys so do idiots beget idiots.

Dick Morris: Obama Handcuffs Terror Probers

Veteran political analyst Dick Morris tells Newsmax that the Obama administration is "deliberately mischaracterizing" the Fort Hood massacre by refusing to admit it was a terrorist attack.

Morris also said the failure to recognize the danger posed by Major Nidal Hasan, the Army psychiatrist accused of the killings, points to "Obama's failures in the war on terror."

What the hell is wrong with our President? Is he an idiot? Doesn't he know what's what or is he hiding something? If he's hiding something, he's hiding his intelligence from his brain or is it that George Soros is pulling Obama's ears so the hurt and thus Obama is brainwashed. That's my opinion.

How Long O Lord Until You Avenge Our Blood On Them

2009-12-21T18:03:00.000-08:00

Well, here we are nine years after the original 911, and we have another attack on American soil.

How long, O Lord, until You avenge our blood on them?

The first attack on America took us into World War 2, and we devastated the enemy. On September 11, 2001, we were attacked again and we were all united and were ready to kill the enemy, except for some Liberal Stupidly reason we didn't, and now we're still paying for it, NINE YEARS LATER.

But what's said about this Terrorist Attack at Fort Hood? And many will say that I'm off point on calling this a Terrorist Attack, but what did the Associated Press print? On November 6, 2009, the AP stated, "...soldiers who witnessed (it) reported that the gunman shouted, "Allah Akbar!" before opening fire at the Texas post."

To me, that's a terrorist cry to the death.

But what does NBC news say on the subject? "Army Lieutenant General Robert Cone said, 'there are firsthand accounts" as to Hasan's "Muslim religious chant." This Army psychiatrist, Hasan, is described as a devout Muslim according to media reports on Friday.

Furthermore, it's stated that: 'investigators and the FBI have not ruled out the possibility it was a terrorist attack...' I guess with all of the witnesses, where it was done, and who committed this terrorist attack needs more investigation.

I’m wondering that maybe after 10 years from today, as they drag their feet, we all will have forgotten that it was a domestic terrorist who killed the Americans at Fort Hood.

The oath that's taken by the military states that they will, "Defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic...." did I miss something? I don't know, but the media spin stated, 'evidence indicated it was not likely a domestic terrorist attack." Interesting!

Who added that part about the FBI or the investigators? Have they already concluded that it was just a accident? There was an unholy yell prior to the firing of the murderous gun which must have went off accidently when Husan pulled the trigger killing innocent bystanders.

What makes this matter worse is that the "Great and Holy" president Obama called it a "tragic" and "a horrific outburst of violence." To me, this wanna be president is afraid to say that his mosque-brother committed a TERRORIST ATTACK. Wake up Mr. president, it was a terrorist attack on American soil. An attack that happened on your watch and that makes YOU responsible.

What adds insult to injury is how the Muslim people responded to this. Nadar Hasan, Major Hasan's cousin, said that his family was "filled with grief for the families of today's victims", according to NBC. He continues to say, "Our family loves America. We are proud of our country..." My questions WHICH country? If the Muslim population wants to be part of America, let them integrate as Americans.

Here's what members of the Texas mosque had to say, according to the New York Times: "Leaders of the vibrant Muslim community here expressed outrage on Friday at the shooting rampage being laid to one of their members..." and, "the military command should be held accountable..."

My question is why weren't Hasan's brothers-in-religion in tune to him? They should be held accountable for not doing or saying something to prevent his anger or his holy jihad from happening.

After all, Muslims don't want to be part of the American culture, they just want the country to be theirs and not responsible for what happens in the American culture as it is now.

Did I miss something again?

The NY Times continues, “The Islamic community strongly condemns this cowardly attack, which was particularly heinous in that it was directed at the all-volunteer army that protects our nation,” Dr. Farooqi said.

But again why weren't these people paying attention to their own, because the Army knew, and Hasan was under Army surveillance.

Want insult to injury? "Nihad Awad, the national executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), said, “We reiterate the American Muslim community’s condemnation of this cowardly attack."

CAIR, in my opinion, HATES America because it's not a Muslim nation, yet. Muslim's do NOT like Infidel nations like the United States of America, and the Democratic party is right there kissing their butt and telling them that they're right in their consensus.

More to the real story about the Muslim loving the USA: "Duane Reasoner Jr., an 18-year-old substitute teacher whose parents worked at Fort Hood said, 'In the Koran, you’re not supposed to have alliances with Jews or Christian or others, and if you are killed in the military fighting against Muslims, you will go to hell.' And I guess that's more important than being an American.

I still must be missing the point somewhere here, ain’t' I?

Posted in the WorldNetDaily.com on November 06, 2009, Bob Unruh wrote this: 'A website run by radical Muslims today honored Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, the man accused of killing 13 people at Fort Hood in Texas, as an "Officer and a Gentleman," saying his actions should not be denounced.

The massacre yesterday, which also left more than two dozen injured, was called a "pre-emptive attack" by supporters of the Revolution Muslim website'

But wait, what's this? 'Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, the alleged shooter in yesterday's massacre at Fort Hood, played a homeland security advisory role in President Barack Obama's transition into the White House, according to a key university policy institute document.' WHAT??

Here’s a good ole boy's liberal press quote from the Koran a book that each of them have in their desk drawer: 'a tenet of Islam says, “We do have the right to retaliate,” Duane Reasoner Jr. said. And Reasoner Jr. continued, “but he who does not is twice blessed.'

No one has the right to retaliate, because that's why we in the United States of America have laws by which we are judged and not some whacked out tenet.

If anybody doesn't like America, leave. You won't be missed.

A New Global Currency System

2009-12-21T18:01:00.000-08:00

There are many other videos on YouTube.com regarding this Anti-American, Scumbag Soros for you to watch and listen to what HE plans to try and bring about.

By Michael E. Telzrow, who is Executive Director of the National Railroad Museum and a Contributor to The New American magazine.

“George Soros advocated a “new global currency system,” and called the decline of the dollar necessary.
He stopped short of predicting the end of the dollar but characterized a managed decline in the value of the dollar as a "healthy, if painful adjustment," citing the United States as a drag on the world economy.”

If Soros, loves the USA, he wouldn’t have all of his money off shore and he would be paying his fair share of taxes. This guy is an enemy of the United States and he’s pulling a lot of Washington strings.

I don’t think that he should be allowed to do his underhanded manipulating of OUR government, since he’s not even an American Citizen. I would even bet that this scum is an ‘Illegal.’

An Officers Outrage Over Fort Hood

2009-12-21T17:59:00.001-08:00

By Major Shawn Keller

As an officer in the United States Army, I'm angry for so many reasons over what happened at Ft. Hood. I'm angry that twelve of my fellow soldiers and a contractor were murdered. I'm angry that over thirty people have suffered life altering injuries from which they will never fully recover. I'm angry that the lives of so many families have been forever ruined. I'm angry that this happened on an Army post on American soil where soldiers should be safe. And I'm angry that the murderer was a terrorist who masqueraded as an Army officer for half a dozen years.

But as angry as I am at what happened, I'm even angrier that it was allowed to happen. Apparently, there was no shortage of warning signs that Hasan identified more with Islamic Jihadists than he did with the US Army. From speeches, writings, conversations, affiliations and postings on Jihadist websites, there were more than enough dots to connect that should have exposed Hasan as someone inclined to attack innocent people in the furtherance of a political, religious and ideological agenda. There were more than enough red flags raised that, at a minimum, should have gotten Hasan kicked out of the Army.

But just like September 11, those agencies and individuals charged with keeping America and Americans safe failed to connect the dots that would have saved lives. Jihadist rhetoric espoused by Hasan was categorically dismissed out of submissiveness to the concepts of tolerance and diversity. The Army as an institution has been neutered by decades of political correctness and the leaders in Hasan's chain-of-command failed to act accordingly out of fear of being labeled anti-Muslim and receiving a negative evaluation report. The counter-terrorism agencies knew Hasan was communicating with Al-Qaeda and dismissed it as academic research instead of delving deeper into the probability that a terrorist had infiltrated the ranks.

Even four hours after Hasan stood on a desk yelling Allahu Akbar! and opened fire, the FBI stated that they were not investigating the attack as an act of terrorism even as there were still reports of other gunmen on the loose. Meanwhile, the Army continues to dismiss it as a "tragedy" and an "isolated incident by a lone gunman" while the media has invented the psychological condition of post-traumatic stress disorder by proxy. There is more concern for promoting the appropriate information operation campaign and maintaining the illusion of safety than there is for actually exposing the weaknesses and faults in the system that allowed this to happen. We're even being told that damage to the Army's efforts at diversity would be a greater tragedy than the murder of the twelve soldiers -- how ironic the week of Veterans' Day.

This has nothing to do with being anti-Islamic. After numerous tours to Iraq and working with countless cultural advisors on Ft. Bragg, I know dozens of Muslims who I respect and admire greatly. This has everything to do with force protection and security being trumped by the concepts of political correctness and diversity. This has everything to do with a hypocritical system and culture that breeds timidity and dismissiveness in the interest of career advancement. If I preached a white-supremacist ideology or described Timothy McVeigh as a hero to the cause of freedom and liberty, how long do you think I would still be in the military drawing a salary, receiving educational benefits and getting promoted like Hasan did?

Hasan's radical ideology grew to the point that he committed mass murder because too many leaders were too afraid to lead out of fear of harming their career or the image of the Army. If those leaders don't have the intestinal fortitude, moral conviction or personal courage to stand up, speak up and protect soldiers, then retire, resign or get out of the way and let somebody else do it for you.

Shawn Keller is a Major in the United States Army stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

This is a good example of political correctness and lack of balls that has become prevalent not only in our military but in our civilian lives as well. All of our senior military leaders, our political leaders, and we as well are all afraid to make any comment that might be identified as racist or prejudicial of any other religion, and unfortunately that is a direction that has intensified during the later years of my military career and is still getting worse today. And yet we let a few people dictate whether we can say a prayer in public or have anything of this nature printed on our public buildings. We just go along with it sort of like the Jews did in Germany until they all found themselves in the concentration camps and it was then too late.

And if anyone thinks that the Moderate Muslims are on OUR side, you're kidding yourself and believe everything that our Idiot Preisdent thinks and believes.

Also, I don't think any of us have really thought about the consequences that will very likely result from national bankruptcy that we are letting ourselves get led into. If at some point, other countries, such as China, decide that they can no longer afford to keep our economy afloat, then what happens???

A 9th Cavalry Poem

2009-11-06T14:04:00.000-08:00

He was getting old and paunchy

And his hair was falling fast,
And he sat around the Legion,
Telling stories of the past.

Of a war that he once fought in
And the deeds that he had done,
In his exploits with his buddies;
They were heroes, every one.

And 'tho sometimes to his neighbors
His tales became a joke,
All his buddies listened quietly
For they knew where of he spoke.
But we'll hear his tales no longer,
For ol' Bob has passed away,
And the world's a little poorer
For a Soldier died today.

He won't be mourned by many,
Just his children and his wife.
For he lived an ordinary,
Very quiet sort of life.
He held a job and raised a family,
Going quietly on his way;
And the world won't note his passing,
'Tho a Soldier died today.

When politicians leave this earth,
Their bodies lie in state,
While thousands note their passing,
And proclaim that they were great.
Papers tell of their life stories
From the time that they were young
But the passing of a Soldier
Goes unnoticed, and unsung.

Is the greatest contribution
To the welfare of our land,
Some jerk who breaks his promise
And cons his fellow man?

Or the ordinary fellow
Who in times of war and strife,
Goes off to serve his country
And offers up his life?

The politician's stipend
And the style in which he lives,
Are often disproportionate,
To the service that he gives.

While the ordinary Soldier,
Who offered up his all,
Is paid off with a medal
And perhaps a pension, small.
It's so easy to forget them,
For it is so many times
That our Bobs and Jims and Johnnys,
Went to battle, but we know,

It is not the politicians
With their compromise and ploys,
Who won for us the freedom
That our country now enjoys.
Should you find yourself in danger,
With your enemies at hand,
Would you really want some cop-out,
With his ever waffling stand?

Or would you want a Soldier--
His home, his country, his kin,
Just a common Soldier,
Who would fight until the end.

He was just a common Soldier,
And his ranks are growing thin,
But his presence should remind us
We may need his like again.
For when countries are in conflict,
We find the Soldier's part
Is to clean up all the troubles
That the politicians start.

If we cannot do him honor
While he's here to hear the praise,
Then at least let's give him homage
At the ending of his days.

Perhaps just a simply headline
In the paper that might say:

"OUR COUNTRY IS IN MOURNING,

A SOLDIER DIED TODAY."

Chicago-Style Intimidation

2009-11-06T14:03:00.000-08:00

I was reading an article by Phyllis Schlafly when I noticed something that I had read before by another author. Even when I had seen it on TV, the incident didn't grab my attention until I read it in Ms. Schlafy's article entitled, "Obama's Chicago-Style Intimidation."

Ms. Schlafy was talking about how Obama's 'goon squad' the SEIU (Service Employees International Union) had punched, kicked and brutally beat an African-American by the name of Kenneth Gladney, who had attended one of the infamous town hall meetings.

However, this still didn't jog my memory about what this other author had said in his book entitled, "Unfound Loyalty" which is authored by Wayne Perryman. If you want a primer in 'Black History' this is the book.

But back to Ms. Schlafy's article. She stated that these 'goons' treated Mr. Gladney like this, because he was and African-American, and the 'Left' does NOT tolerate 'Conservative African-Americans.'

Mr. Perryman states in his book that, "From 1870 to 1930, the (Democratic) party used fraud, whippings, lynching, murder, intimidation, and mutilation to get their (the black) vote.

And upon doing this 'Goon-Style' intimidation from 1930 to 1960, the African-American people surrendered to the Democratic-KKK Party, thus making the African-American people again as slaves of the 'Old South.'

Today, we hear the term 'Racist' being thrown about by the Democrats, white and black, because if the African-American refuses to follow suit of the White KKK-Democrats, I'm sure that we will again see the 1870's again in the 21st Century.

The New Youth Corps

2009-11-06T14:01:00.000-08:00

I’ve only heard stories of how one German Leader had convinced the youth of his country to become the leaders of Tomorrow’s Germany.

But today, there’s an organization called, “Organizing For America” (OFA) where Obama has hoodwinked our young college students into thinking that they, other than ‘earn college credits,’ can make extra spending money.

However, I’m sure that these students weren’t told that they would be the next ‘goose-stepping’ youth group the world hasn’t seen since the days of Hitler.

Am I calling Obama another Hitler?

No, and should you insist that I am, then you have already believed the lie and will most likely be my prison guard.

Just like the infamous Hitler, Obama too is a community organizer and a silver tongue sage, and he too will most likely lead a large number of our already indoctrinated college students further into the abyss of deceitfulness.

If anybody knows the Old Testament of the Holy Bible, specifically the Book of Proverbs, one remembers the maxim of chapter 22 and verse 6, which states: “Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it.”

By the time that these young men and women have graduated, they will have become full-fledged anti-capitalist, anti-Christian, anti-Constitutionalist, and goose-stepping Leftist / Communist as Van Jones, like Obama buddy and once ‘Green Job Czar.’

As parent-teachers of our youth, we must guide them in the ways of Truth and the American way, for I see many educationally neglected children walking with their parents trying to look like somebody else and not as an individualist.

As an individualist, one is not brainwashed into believing every lie that the supposed sage movie stars, musicians, and political leaders indoctrinate them with, even the TV programs to which our young babies sit and watch all day long condition the young mind, unaware.

Infringement upon the right of Free Speech

2009-11-06T13:58:00.000-08:00

I was mad when I heard that the Obama Administration tried to place a ‘gag order’ upon the Humana Insurance Company to stop them from telling their policy holders about company benefits, a week or so ago. Anyway, the ‘gag order’ was not enforced, which was great news. However, I didn't realize how great a victory this was until today as I was eating lunch and heard the Humana commercial.

The Obama Administration told Humana in the Q.T. to, "SHUT UP!" But during their commercial today, I heard another voice, one that rang through out the United States as the commercial was running that said, "SHUT UP OBAMA!" Yes, Freedom of Speech is costly, even when it goes against a tyrannical government that doesn't respect the individual States Constituions, private companies or We the People's personal freedoms, but considers them as worthless words, fodder to be cast away.

Yet this Freedom of Speech needs to be kept free at all cost as does our Constitution, both Federal and State.

But beware of this fact, Freedom of Speech is a Double Edged Sword that cuts both ways and that's not freedom. And that's dangerous.

Hey Federal Government, "Don't Tread On ME!"

Great idea! One light bulb at a time...

2009-11-06T13:55:00.000-08:00

First off let me say this, last week Dorothy and I went grocery shopping and it made me mad when all I saw were products that looked cheap and my brand named products were gone from the shelves.

The products that I saw were registered brand names called, "Great Value." Where it came from I have no idea. All I know is that the products were called 'Great Value.'

As I write this, I went to the refrig to look at the milk that we bought, since that was a 'Great Value' product, and to my surprise, I might have made a better choice of product that I thought.

Now the milk that we bought before was a cheap brand, because milk is milk, right? NOPE! And I don't care what the name is anymore, after I found out this information about cow’s milk.

The day before I was reading my health newsletter and it asked this question: "Know What's Really in Your Milk?" And the ingredient that it was talking about is called 'recombinant bovine somatotropin' or 'rBST'.

Okay, now that I've thrown around some big unrecognized words, what am I saying? This rBST is a genetically engineered variant of a growth hormone.

Okay, so? What's the big deal? Most of us all drink milk and we don't look at the label as we drink it, so what's your point?

Here's my point that I learned from my news letter: It states that, "Studies have shown that there could be a link between consuming this type of milk and an increased risk for breast, colon, and prostate cancers."

I know what you gonna say, 'Great!' 'Thank you, Mr. Reed.'

But here's the good news. MY new milk has a label that states:

"Our farmers have pledged to not treat any of their cows with any artificial growth

hormones. According to the FDA, no significant difference has been shown between milk

derived from rBST treated and non-rBST treated cows."

So, if there's not a significant difference between milk derived from rBST treated and non-rBST treated cows, what's the point?

This enetically engineered growth hormone helps the cow give more milk production and THAT IS ALL. Nothing more, just more milk produced by the farmer's cow.

Thus, it pays to know not only what you're buying as well as knowing where it was made; therefore, the information below was sent to me and I read it and it made sense to me, so I'm passing it on.

Why pay more for the same item that may even be inferior to the more expensive.

I was in Lowe's the other day for some reason and just for the heck of it I was looking at the hose attachments. They were all made in China. The next day I was in Ace Hardware and just for the heck of it I checked the hose attachments there. They were made in USA.

In our current economic situation, every little thing we buy or do affects someone else, even their job. So, after reading this email, I think this lady is on the right track. Let's get behind her!

My grandson likes Hershey's candy. I noticed though, that it is marked made in Mexico now. I do not buy it any more. My favorite toothpaste Colgate, is made in Mexico now. I have switched to Crest. You have to read the labels on everything.

This past weekend I was at Kroger. I needed 60W light bulbs and Bounce dryer sheets. In the light bulb aisle right next to the GE brand I normally buy, was an off brand labeled, "Everyday Value". I picked up both types of bulbs and compared the stats. They were the same except for the price. The GE bulbs were more money than the Everyday Value brand but the GE brand was made in Mexico and the Everyday Value brand was made in a company in Cleveland, Ohio.

So throw out the myth that you cannot find products you use every day that are made right here. So on to another aisle for Bounce Dryer Sheets. Yep, you guessed it, Bounce cost more money and is made in Canada. The Everyday Value brand was less money and MADE IN THE USA! I did laundry yesterday and the dryer sheets performed just like the Bounce.

My challenge to you is to start reading the labels when you shop for everyday things and see what you can find that is made in the USA - the job you save may be your own or your neighbors!

If you accept the challenge, pass this on to others in your address book so we can all start buying American, one light bulb at a time and stop buying from overseas companies!

Let's get with the program. Help our fellow Americans keep their jobs and create more jobs here in the USA.

Obama Gags Freedom of Speech, Just the Beginning

2009-10-17T16:17:00.000-07:00

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, under the direction of 'The Socialist Department of Health and Human Services Secretary' Kathleen Sebelius, has ordered Humana, a private health benefit company, to stop disseminating information critical of President Barack Obama’s health reform plans.

Well, well, well. I've been wondering how long it would take for our Socialist Governmental Idiots to begin setting a precedent to disassemble our Living Constitution.

Not only has this American hating, lying, muslim loving president destroyed our freedom of entrepreneurialship by taking over companies that have nothing to do with his position as president, he is on the q.t. destroying the foundation of this Country.

He has already spent more money than all of the preceding presidents before him, and he hasn't come close to stopping yet. Why? Because the United Nations wants a One World Economy and they’re pushing Obama-idiot to accomplish this for them.

Back to the news at hand, a Senate Republican statement said, “America’s seniors and the health plans that serve them (seniors) deserve to have their free speech rights respected.”

I think that it's about time these 'scaredy-cat' Republicans get some "BALLS" and stand up to these RED, Goose-Stepping, Brown Shirt Democrats.

And I think that the Radical Right will begin to grow weary of both clowns, the right and the left and take matters into their own hands, and American will look like Iran did this past Summer.

I hear constant rumors of this, but until I see it happen, they remain rumors.

Continuing, 'the precedent determined that stifling this communication “would violate basic freedom of speech and other constitutional rights of the Medicare beneficiary as a citizen.” Since reform-leading Obama took office, this precedent has apparently been overturned.'

“Now, the Obama administration has reversed this longstanding HHS decision — in the midst of a critical debate about the future of health care services in our country — to shut down communication between private companies and America’s seniors on an issue that has a direct impact on their health care,” Senate Republicans said.

“Your department has done this by imposing an industry-wide gag order without apparent justification or basis in law, contradicting your past public guidance and the plain language and spirit of the First Amendment, among the most sacred tenets of our democracy,” Senate Republicans continued.

Congressman Dave Camp (R-Michigan), the top Republican on the House Ways and Means Committee, has written a letter to CMS, asking the agency to explain why it issued the “gag order”, and why the order only applies to opponents of President Obama’s healthcare plan.

Camp continued, “It really is unprecedented that you would say seniors don’t have a right to know, that you would prevent them from getting the kind of information they need to be informed about what’s going to happen to their benefits. And according to the Congressional Budget Office, their benefits are going to be reduced, or they’re going to have higher co-pays if in fact either the House or Senate healthcare bill passes.”

In my point of view, this is a day late and a dollar short as is usual for the Republican Party.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services said, “(W)e are concerned that, among other things, the information in the letter is misleading and confusing to beneficiaries.”

Yeah, go ahead you Democratic liars, who do you think you're fooling? Grandma and Grandpa who's already in the Democratic Gulags? Those you have already brainwashed?

Rep. Bob Bethell, R-Alden, and chair of the House Aging and Long-Term Care Committee, said, “It seems strange to me that we would have a government entity trying to do just the opposite of that by saying we will give care to certain people and not to others so we can broaden the entire process.”

And Bethell continued, “This is a country built on freedom of speech, so I do not think that is an appropriate process either.”

This takes balls to stand and say things like this or the call the Idiot in the President's chair a liar, and I think that it’s about time.

Don’t Tread On ME

Wake Up White Boy

2009-10-17T09:16:00.000-07:00

This will make you sick! Justice is somewhere, right?!?!?

The description of the attack is very gross, do not go forward if you have a delicate stomach. this is no joke.....

The text description is very horrific !!!!

As horrific as this is, it needs to circulate!!!

The animals pictured below car-jacked then raped Christopher Newsom, cut off his penis, set him on fire and fatally shot him several times while they forced his girlfriend, Channon Christian, to watch. An even more cruel fate awaited her!

Channon Christian was beaten and gang-raped in many ways for four days by all of them, while they took turns urinating on her. They cut off her breasts and put chemicals in her mouth... and then murdered her.

VICTIMS: Photo omitted out of respect for their privacy, something the Hate-Amercian Group doesn't understand until it happens to their family - Hypocrites.

PERPS: Photos omitted because the Left and Hateful Democrats and Idiot Republicans would be calling me out and then Armageddon would begin

Knoxville (WVLT) - The District Attorney General of Knox County announced the list of charges facing now five suspects in the double murder of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom.

The District Attorney General Randy Nichols is not saying whether or not he will seek the death penalty, but he does say the State will seek conviction for all charges filed in a 24-page indictment from theKnox County Grand Jury.

Lemaricus Davidson, 25 , faces a total of 46 charges..

Letalvis Cobbins, 24 , faces a total of 46 charges.

George Thomas, 24 , faces a total of 46 charges.

Vanessa Coleman, 18 , faces 40 Tennessee state charges.

Eric Boyd, 24 , also arrested in connection with the fatal car jacking, only faces federal charges as an accessory after the fact.

SO!!!!!

Where's Al Sharpton, O and Jesse Jackson? Are they providing counsel and help to the families of the victims?

Oh, that's right, they don't care about their Religious upbringing and Ministry to the lost sheep of America. They only care about how they can SCAM America with their Liberation Theology.

What's Liberation Theology?

It's a HATE teheology that knows only socialism as its god, and how everybody but black people are of no concern.

Hatred over something they can not change and that they had no part in that time of History. These two CLOWNS think that only the African people were slaves and nobody else.

Too bad that their IGNORANT thinking is so CORRUPTED that they can't see the truth of who was and who weren't slaves. Research on the subject shows that MORE NON-BLACKS were slaves than blacks. That's RIGHT!! WHITE SLAVES.

And so nothing will be done by these two Racist hate mongers because the victims were white.

Why hasn't this received National coverage by the news media like the Duke 'rape' case?

Oh, that's right - the victims were white

Why hasn't the RACISIT HATERS, the NAACP, ACLU, New York Times etc., called for an investigation?

Must be cause the victims were white.

Why hasn't the FBI been called in to investigate this as a hate crime?

Oh, that's right - the victims were white.

So, if a white radio shock jock uses the phrase 'Nappy headed', it gets 2 weeks of constant news coverage.

If two white people are tortured, raped, and murdered by a group of black people, it barely gets a blip in the news.

Pass this around, and maybe, just maybe, it will land in the hands of someone in the media or politics, that has the guts to stand up for the white people!!

But I doubt that any Political or Media SCUM will bother, because their cause is divide and kill.

Or don't pass it around or make any noise about this because you don't have the guts either, just like your politico buddies and media buddies!!

Obama and Cheney are Cousins

2009-10-08T19:02:00.000-07:00

COUSINS? Obama and Cheney? Couldn't be. Oops!! It is, BIG TIME.

This ain't no joke. No Wonder everything is screwed up in Washington.

This all happened when Lynne Cheney uncovered the cousin ties between the Obama and Cheney while researching her ancestry.

And when the Obama camp heard this, spokesman Bill Burton responded for Obama, who wants to be the first black U.S. president, offered a tongue-in-cheek response. “Every family has a black sheep,” ’

Just let a white person say this and BANG, you're a RACIST. And guess who will be playing the "Race Card?" You're right, the hateful Democrats. I haven't heard any of the Republicans nor Independents calling each other RACIST nor have I heard either of these two calling the Democrats that name.

What I find ironic is that the Democrats were the politicians who didn't want the blacks to be set free from slavery. That's why the Civil War was started, and in the end the Northerner's won the war and set the slaves free.

Still, it wasn't the regular run of the mill Republicans, it was the Radical Right. The same Radical Right who are out protesting what's going on in Washington at the Tea Parties. These are the people who manned the "Underground Railway," who gave their lives to move the black slaves from the hateful KKK governed South, Northward.

But I'm sure that's not why the Democrats call the Republicans 'Racist.' The Democrats are calling the people who fled from the KKK backed Democratic Party to the Republican party -- the 'Dixiecrats' -- racist.

I believe this to be true only because the 'TRUE BLOOD' KKK-Democrats didn't have the guts to be human and see every person to be a freeborn person under the US Constitution. In other words, they were hypocrites.

But let's get back to the story of the 'Eight Cousins.

Lynne Cheney told MSNBC in an interview, “This is such an amazing American story that one ancestor ... could be responsible down the family lines for lives that have taken such different and varied paths as Dick’s and Barack Obama .”

But that's not necessarily true, since a family can have different political standings and bicker all day and night over something as stupid as these two already do.

Ginny Justice, a spokeswoman for Lynne Cheney said, "Senator Obama, D-Ill., is a descendent of Mareen Duvall. This French Huguenot’s son married the granddaughter of a Richard Cheney, who arrived in Maryland in the late 1650s from England."

From sources, it's noted that Lynne Cheney did not reference the ancestral ties between her husband and Obama in the book.

And I personally don't blame her. Who would want to be associated to such a loser as Obama who isn't qualified to wipe a pig's butt.

Entitlement Mentality

2009-10-02T08:53:00.000-07:00

This post was sent to me and when I read it, I decided to post it to my blog because of the point that it makes. And because I know how some people are with their cloistered minds, I will qualify this for you. I find it amazing that the hateful Left (QUALIFIER: NOT ALL FROM THE LEFT ARE HATEFUL) fill this void among the cloistered few as they speak their hate, their racist ideology, their immorality, and demand others walk the mile with one leg tied as if they were a hostage or terrorist, and they the hateful left somehow think that they are exempt or refuse to be transparent, like our present narcissistic president thinks that he is -- EXEMPT and special.

But when the Right speaks out, they're considered TERRORIST, THREATS to AMERICA or is it that the Democratic Party feels inferior? My research on the political parties shows that the Democratic Party should be placed on the terrorist list and be watched continually.

Now I'm not saying that the Republican Party is so Pious that they are above criticism, because we're not all blind and deaf as the Democratic Party thinks everybody is and should be under their ruling thumbs. Those of the Republican Party are still like the Democrats; POLITICIANS. Can the Republicans be trusted more than Democrats? NO! A politician is a politician. Go back to the Founding Fathers, and one will see that even tho they were great and had the foresight to create a Republic as great as any in the world, they too were PLOITICIANS.

That's why WE the PEOPLE are the government and not the politicians. The politicians are accountable to WE the People and not the other way around. The other way is Socialism or the brain dead brother Communism.

Unfortunately, the Right, when they speak up and it rubs the fur of the Democratic Party the wrong way, the Right just shuts its mouth like a child who got caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

We the PEOPLE want the Right to speak up when confronted by the adversary. So by now, everybody is saying that I'm a Republican and hate the Democrats. YOU GUESSED WRONG!! I'm not even an Independent. I'm and INDIVIDUAL who holds allegiance to NO party, because MOSTLY ALL politicians are CRIMINALS one way or another. This is evident of our present Administration. Was the past Administration any better? No, they had their faults too, but to hear the Democrats talk, they (the Democrats) are Angels compared to the Republicans.

You see, the Independents have nothing when it comes to politics. It's like they have no leader, foundation, or say one way or the other. Just, "I don't know what I want to be when I grow up".

So let me step aside here and let you read what Rush Limbaugh said, and I agree with what he said 100%. And if you who don't like the way this Right Winger talks and says, it's because you've cloistered your mind. Better put by saying that you have allowed yourself to be brainwashed and not water boarded. With the previous, you voluntarily gave up your right to think, the latter you kept your mind and think for yourself, and you just got wet.

By Rush Limbaugh:

I think the vast differences in compensation between victims of the September 11 casualty and those who die serving our country in Uniform are profound. No one is really talking about it either, because you just don't criticize anything having to do with September 11.

Well, I can't let the numbers pass by because it says something really disturbing about the entitlement mentality of this country.

If you lost a family member in the September 11 attack, you're going to get an average of $1,185,000. The range is a minimum guarantee of $250,000, all the way up to $4.7 million.?

If you are a surviving family member of an American soldier killed in action, the first check you get is a $6,000 direct death benefit, half of which is taxable.

Next, you get $1,750 for burial costs. If you are the surviving spouse, you get

$833 a month until you remarry. And there's a payment of $211 per month for each child under 18.. When the child hits 18, those payments come to a screeching halt.

Keep in mind that some of the people who are getting an average of $1.185 million up to$4.7 million are complainingthat it's not enough.?Their deaths were tragic, but for most, they were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.?

Soldiers put themselves in harms way FOR ALL OF US, and they and their families know the dangers. (Actually, soldiers are put in harms way by politicians and commanding officers.)

We also learned over the weekend that some of the victims from the Oklahoma City bombing have started an organization asking for the same deal that the

September 11 families are getting. In addition to that, some of the families of those bombed in the embassies are now asking for compensation as well.

You see where this is going, don't you? Folks, this is part and parcel of over 50 years of entitlement politics in this country.

It's just really sad. Every time a pay raise comes up for the military, they usually receive next to nothing of a raise. Now the green machine is in combat in the Middle East while their families have to survive on food stamps and live in low-rent housing.? Make sense?

However, our own US Congress voted themselves a raise. Many of you don't know that they only have to be in Congress one time to receive a pension that is more than $15,000 per month. And most are now equal to being millionaires plus..

They do not receive Social Security on retirement because they didn't have to pay into the system. If some of the military people stay in for 20 years and get out as anE-7, they may receive a pension of $1,000 per month, and the very people who placed them in harm's way receives a pension of $15,000 per month.

I would like to see our elected officials pick up a weapon and join ranks before they start cutting out benefits and lowering pay for our sons and daughters who are now fighting.

My final words:

When do we finally do something about this? If this doesn't seem fair to you, it is time to tell others about this. Tell it to as many people as you can...

How many people CAN YOU tell this to? How many WILL YOU tell? If you don't tell anybody, why did you bother to read this? Was it to criticize or speak evil of me, someone who's tired of the political crap?

Meet The Soetoros

2009-09-29T17:45:00.000-07:00

I would like to claim responsiblity for breaking this story but I CAN'T. It was leaked to me by SOURCES.

Meet the Soetoros, my friends.

Left to Right: Lolo Soetoro, Stanley Ann Dunham Soetoro, baby Maya Soetoro, and 9 year old Barry Soetoro. Anybody look familiar? No, not yet? Keep reading.

Below is the registration document that was made available on Jan. 24, 2007, by the Fransiskus Assisi school in Jakarta, Indonesia. It shows the registration of Barack Obama under the name Barry Soetoro made by his step-father, Lolo Soetoro.

Name: Barry Soetoro

Religion: ..... Islam

Nationality: ..... Indonesian

How did little INDONESIAN, Barry Soetoro, (A.K.A. Barack Obama) get around the issue of nationality to become president?

Well, check this out and do check the weblinks.

In a move certain to fuel the debate over Obama's qualifications for the presidency, the group "Americans for Freedom of Information" has released copies of President Obama's college transcripts from Occidental College.

Released today, the transcript indicates that Obama, under the name Barry Soetoro,
received financial aid as a foreign student from Indonesia as an undergraduate at the school.

The transcript was released by Occidental College in compliance with a court order in a suit brought by the group in the Superior Court of California.

The transcript shows that Obama (Soetoro) applied for financial aid and was awarded a fellowship for foreign students from the Fulbright Foundation Scholarship program.
To qualify, for the scholarship, a student must claim foreign citizenship.

This document would seem to provide the smoking gun that many of Obama's detractors have been seeking.

Along with the evidence that he was first born in Kenya and there is no record of him ever applying for US citizenship, this is looking pretty grim.

The news has created a firestorm at the White House as the release casts increasing doubt about Obama's legitimacy and qualification to serve as president.

When reached for comment in London , where he has been in meetings with British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, Obama smiled but refused comment on the issue.

Britain 's Daily Mail has also carried the story in a front-page article titled, "Obama Eligibility Questioned," leading some to speculate that the story may overshadow economic issues on Obama's first official visit to the U.K.

In a related matter, under growing pressure from several groups, Justice Antonin Scalia announced that the Supreme Court agreed on Tuesday to hear arguments concerning Obama's legal eligibility to serve as President in a case brought by Leo Donofrio of New Jersey.

This lawsuit claims Obama's dual citizenship disqualified him from serving as president.

Donofrio's case is just one of 18 suits brought by citizens demanding proof of Obama's citizenship or qualifications to serve as president.

Gary Kreep of the United States Justice Foundation has released the results of their investigation of Obama's campaign spending.

This study estimates that Obama has spent upwards of $950,000 in campaign funds in the past year with eleven law firms in 12 states for legal resources to block disclosure of any of his personal records.

Mr. Kreep indicated that the investigation is still on-going but that the final report will be provided to the U.S. attorney general, Eric Holder. Mr. Holder has refused to comment on the matter.

Let other people know this news the media won't let it be known!

Neither one of the Obama pair had time to get a real job and work for a pay check. We paid the balance on their education and travel.

Now could this be another liberal lie so they can blame the Right for something else to keep the citizens from knowing the truth of the Federal Government’s Matters of Concern?

But you can always go here and celebrate if it wasn't true. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3KDmEvNmJ0

America is NO longer OURS

2009-09-29T07:47:00.000-07:00

On Monday, September 28, 2009 at 3:21 pm ET, AFP.com, an unheard of news source from the Yahoo! News page posted this article.

"NEW YORK (AFP) – New York's iconic Empire State Building will light up red and yellow Wednesday in honor of the 60th anniversary of communist China."

Read the article at: http://tinyurl.com/yl5egpe

What I want to know as a Patriotic, Free Born, American Citizen, why are these CORRUPT American politicians selling out my Country?

Most of whom, I'm sure, have NEVER set foot on the battlefield to protect our GREAT Country from foreign TERROR, NEVER enlisted in the Military, and yet put up a facade by sending our young men and women into the face of danger for their political GAIN.

Was there a question about what I just said about politicians doing things for their own personal political gain, and not toeing the mark?

Take Senator John Kerry, for example. He, in my opinion, is a lair, a fraud, a charlatan, and a 'gold digger', who, if were give the opportunity would sell our freedom for 30 pieces of fake silver, just to say that he put himself out for the 'Cause'.

Is he the only politician? NO! Pick one and you found the prize.

Some how these political CLOWNS think that they are the government and are the supreme rulers of our GREAT Country, but that's another LIE they believe. WE the PEOPLE are the GOVERNMENT, and SOMEONE like YOU and ME needs to inform this IDIOTS of that fact.

Let me shut up so you can read the article of how OUR politicians have given our Country over to our enemies to do whatever they please. Let the ENEMY stay home and celebrate. Gr-r-rr-r-rrr!!

Talking about kindergarten, look up the word and see what it means and where it came from.
Writer Steven Yates who has doctorate in philosophy and has taught the subject at a number of Southeastern colleges and universities and who writes for Newswithviews.com wrote, "It, kindergarten, means roughly, child garden—a reference to the growing of children as if they were vegetables in a garden, to be tended, nurtured and directed down the path the owners of the garden want them to follow."

Storyteller of black America - Washington Times

2009-09-26T17:13:00.001-07:00

Lonnie G. Bunch III said about his Black American Museum, "It is to bring issues like slavery and segregation down to a human scale so you feel like you are in somebody's backyard hearing personal stories of the past."

I say that's fine as long as he shows how the Blacks were hated and coerced by the KKK led Democrats to remain their slaves.

What do I mean?

It's very simple. It all began with the The Emancipation Proclamation January 1, 1863. All blacks were free to live as the rest of the known States United of that time. Of course, as politicians hold true to their deceptive roots, the slaves were not truly free as the whites, because they like the women were not allowed to vote.

Yet it was a step in the right direction. The reason this was like that was because of the KKK and their buddies of the Southern Democrats. They are the same today. It's hard to get rid of the ghost in your closet. Today, it’s the commie or socialist democrats and their buddies the socialist and commie unions.

In the beginning the unions were needed to help the nation grow, but the KKK and Democrats grabbed a hold, like they've done thu the years to all good things and turned it into CRAP.

I've gotten off track a little, but background info is always important to show who's who and all of the dirty laundry. If it hadn't been for the RADICAL RIGHT -- those know as DOMESTIC TERRORIST -- thanks to the Obama Criminal Administration's belief, the blacks would still be slaves.

Today, the Radical Right is still trying to keep America free, but most of the people in the USA today are brainwashed into believing that black is white and white is black and the color grey doesn't exist unless it's the area where the KKK-Democrats can hide.

To get on with Lonnie G. Bunch III's dream let me shut up so that you can read the article. Click on the link and it will take you to the Washington Times and the article. Enjoy your reading.
