Hey Dr. Laurie, I'm not a pro but I can think. We're all created equal in that way.
Secretary of Homeland Defense Janet Napolitano, the leader of America’s collective effort to stop terrorist threats, as the United States approaches the tenth anniversary of 9-11, warns that it is more difficult to protect the American people because terrorism is becoming more the lone wolf. A terrorist can rent a small plane, load it with explosives, kill a lot of people, get a lot of attention, thus to scare the world into submission.
President Obama doesn’t know whether he is afoot or horseback. Congress is out to feather its own nest. Big labor has declared war on the Tea Party “sons-of-bitches.” Congresswoman Maxine Waters tells the Tea Party to go to hell. Vice-President Joe Biden says the Tea Party is threatening laboring people’s existence. The Tea Party, the scapegoat, in Nazi Germany it was Jews.
Without thinking through my plan, I ended on the rocks. I had planned to make videos of the places boat charterers go in the Virgins to sell to boat chartering companies. Loaded with expensive video equipment, I cast off for the Virgins, and ended on the rocks. I should have hired an experienced boat captain and sailed the route the pros take to the Virgins instead of the island hoping route I took. Live and learn.
What is needed is putting together the vast amount of the information available in a way that makes common sense. I’d lived an unusually active life, winning some of the battles, and losing some. At age 74 and retired, with nothing better to do with my time, in May 2001, I decided to write my memoirs. Two years later I self published An Aquarian’s Bold Venture. My book was critiqued by a professional. I was advised that, besides badly needing editing, my book left great gaps. I was advised to completely overhaul the book.
My book’s critique was most disappointing, but I didn’t give up. I spent the next five years trying to put the pieces together and started rewriting. After a few pages I gave up. My ideas were too far-fetched to sell. On July 11, 2011, ten years after deciding to write my memoirs, and thinking every day about my life, I was informed that the UN, the US, the EU, and Russia, had agreed to decide the fate of Israel, without Israel’s participation. With powers that be who know only war as the solution, and America has not won a war since World War II, sadly, we are looking at a war to end all wars. I decided it was time to rewrite my book. I can say now that I’ve got the pieces put together.
Rapid technological advances leaves the world preoccupied with materialism. With the world in political turmoil, with economies on the brink of collapse, with little sense of direction, empowered bullies having painted themselves into a corner, knowing nothing of the cure and now name calling, with great change inevitable, I promise that you will get a fresh voice in my work that worked for me. I plan to self-publish my rewrite in January 2012.

Thursday is a HUGE day in America. That is because the New Orleans Saints take on the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field.
Are you ready for some football, America?
Oh, and before the start of the football game, President Obama is going to waste valuable television time trying to convince Congress and the American people that he has some magical formula for creating jobs.
My question to the president: If you have any workable ideas for fixing the wretched economy (which you made all the worse) why in Hades have you waited nearly three years to speak up?
After all, in 2009 and 2010, you owned both chambers of Congress and could have passed damn near anything.
Why in the world did you waste close to a trillion dollars on the so-called ‘stimulus’ failure if you had a better plan in your mind?
Of course, the truth is that Obama will serve up 535 plates of rehashed peas that will call for MORE spending, but NOT stimulus, that will raise the deficit even more!
He will promise to reimburse treasury once the economy is ‘jump started,’ a story not unlike that told by an alcoholic uncle who promised to swear off the sauce forever if we could just lend him a $1,000. to get back on his wobbly feet.
Forget it—its called enabling and the last thing ding bat, addicted-to-spending Democrats need is another $300 billion to waste!
There is, however, a way in which Obama can show leadership in righting America’s financial ship.
Specifically, the U.S. Postal Service is about to go belly up, and may default on a $5.5 billion dollar obligation to employee pension funds. Things are so bad that the USPS is talking about laying off 120,000 people!
While a part of the USPS problem is the loss of business to the Internet, the major problem is employee costs as set forth in labor agreements with labor unions.
Those agreements are simply unsustainable in the current environment. USPS management needs to be able to renegotiate with the unions to reflect the new reality.
The devastating impact of outrageous labor costs also drove Ford Motors to announce construction of a billion dollar plant—in India!
And so it is all across America: Outlandish pensions and labor costs negotiated by labor unions are bankrupting government municipalities and private business alike, forcing hundreds of thousands of Americans out of work.
If President Obama really wants to tackle unemployment and the economy in a serious way, he should propose sweeping reform of labor agreements to conform to the current reality.
Forget about more taxes and spending, Mr. President! Our nation is being crippled by greedy labor leaders who are not interested in “spreading the wealth” to other Americans.
Reform labor agreements NOW, freeze all new regulations, cut taxes across the board, and just get government out of the way!
That is the way to cut unemployment and rebuild America’s economy.
Obama Plays Political “Gotcha”
With Second Gibson Guitar Raid
The same Obama administration – already threatening to kill thousands of airplane manufacturing jobs in South Carolina for being politically incorrect; and complicit in the 35% unemployment in and around Fresno, California (courtesy of the Environmental Protection Agency’s stupid ban against farm irrigation) -- is now attacking the Gibson Guitar Company, maker of arguably the world’s most desired musical instrument. Gibson is not Stradivarius but its artisan-built, American-made guitars are in more hands the world over than any musical instrument short of the Hohner Harmonica, a mass-produced pocket instrument.
According to Gibson CEO Henry Juszkiewicz, his company, the iconic maker of the Les Paul and Firebird X electronic guitars, is being unjustly harassed by the federal government after an August 24th raid by armed agents from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service on two of Gibson's Tennessee production facilities and its Nashville headquarters. According to Juszkiewicz the feds confiscated nearly $1 million in rare Indian ebony, finished guitars and electronic data the second time in two years that Gibson's factories have been raided by the feds because of unfinished rare woods used to build its guitars. Notably and gutlessly failing to make a presence in the raid were Eric Holder’s@@ Justice Department and the Federal Labor Relations Board who most probably were the initiators of the action . . . almost all U.S. guitar makers other than Gibson are union shops owned by Democratic sympathizers.
"It was a nightmare," Juszkiewicz said, "We had people sitting making guitars. We had no weapons” when the gun-wielding Feds crashed their business sites. Gibson Guitar has always made a good-faith effort to follow the law, he said. Juszkiewicz and virtually all other U.S. guitar makers all use the same woods in their products, there didn’t seem to be any reason for singling out Gibson for the raid. Politics may be behind the raid according to Gibson’s lawyers. Juszkiewicz, who has contributed to a few Democrats in the past, is a vocal anti-Obama Republican and he runs a non-union shop. The National Labor Relations Board loaded down with Obama appointees and union activists has already sought to twist the nation’s fair labor practices law by seeking to prevent Boeing Aircraft Company from creating a new plant and thousands of jobs in South Carolina, a “right to work state” by implying that the new plant would harm Boeing’s union workforce in Seattle, Washington.
It comes down to this: by purporting to uphold an Indian law about shipping unfinished Indian ebony (actually India freely trades in many types of unfinished woods from their country including this one and several variations of this one), the feds are in effect saying that only finished wood from India (creating Indian jobs and killing American ones) may be used in Gibson and other guitars. The federal agents involved have said that the wood involved “is too thick to be a veneer” and as an unfinished wood cannot be brought into the country.
Juszkiewicz and his Gibson attorneys insist the wood is legal under Indian law because it's a finished product -- a fingerboard that gets attached to the neck of the guitar and they have letters from the Indian government to prove it they told CNN. Certainly this appears to be carrying political correctness way too far . . . federal agents with guns raiding a well-respected company instead of using a subpoena to gain the information needed. Let us not forget the disruption in Gibson’s daily business and the confiscation of over $1 million in inventory; and confiscation of records. One other little detail, shutting down Gibson would put more than 700 workers out on the streets. Juszkiewicz is keeping the company running, "We have not been able to make some products, but I'm not going to lay people off," he said. The problem is, we have no recourse," he said. "These guys have investigated us for two years. They came in twice and shut the place down."
According to CNN, Juszkiewicz and Gibson await judgment on the earlier case, which involves rare wood from Madagascar confiscated from Gibson's factories in 2009. Meanwhile, Juszkiewicz has NOT been able to get the wood or guitars confiscated in that raid returned. Even if it were returned would it still be in usable condition after a two year hiatus?
"Why is big government spending our tax money to harm ordinary citizens and small businesses?" Juszkiewicz asked online yesterday. As it stands right now anyone in the country owning or selling a Gibson Guitar is in danger of arrest for violation of the law and/or obstructing justice. The Justice Department, through a spokesman said it only goes after the big companies selling “contraband products,” not the individuals or small businesses. Why is Rajjpuut not comforted by their reply?
On another front the TEA Party and other political conservatives opposed to big government interference are citing the two Gibson raids as further evidence that the Obama administration is killing American jobs. In 2009, the TEA Party cited the EPA for playing a role in the 35% unemployment around Fresno, California created by prohibiting vegetable farmers from irrigating their fields (saying they were endangering a three-inch fish, the delta smelt which tended to wander into irrigation piping**). Re-elect Obama for life in prison.
Ya’all live long, strong and ornery,
Rajjpuut
** Let us say for the sake of argument that this is a reasonable thing to do rather than bureaucratic nonsense. Two things come to mind:
1. No such action ought to be allowed without final Congressional approval
2. The EPA ought to be commanded to come up with a feasible, affordable alternative to save the damn dumb fish, for example
a. Installation of a wire or metal grid sufficiently far from the pipe intake that the little guys would run into rather than getting sucked into the pipe, OR
b. Some sort of chemical or audio device that would scare the little fish away: possibly by smelling like or sounding like a larger prey fish.
Killing jobs and driving food prices higher without first seeking a more common-sense cheap alternative is so reprehensible and so stupid that it’s hard to imagine anyone but a progressive nincompoop holding anything but utter contempt for the EPA. And notice that the responsibility must be the EPA’s and not the farmers’ who are NOT deliberately trying to make the damn fish extinct.
@@ Mr. Holder’s justice department is, as you read this,
1. Joined with HUD, also leading an attack upon Westchester County, New York, the most highly-taxed real estate in the country; calling the area “segregated and racist,” the Attorney General and other Feds are seeking to force Westchester banks, etc. to grant sub-prime loans to “racially diverse individuals.” Isn’t that what caused our recent financial meltdown?
2. Denying all knowledge (already proven to be a lie) of the Fast and Furious “sting” program that put 37,000 weapons in the hands of the Mexican drug cartels and allowed them to be taken freely across our southern border where they’ve been implicated in hundreds of crimes. “Justice” Department, Mr. Holder?

By now everyone on the planet knows full well why Nancy Pelosi, former Shrieker of the U.S. House, has never been invited to a Mensa meeting: She no brighter than a mud fence, and not one iota more!
Over the years, including her term as House Shrieker, Pelosi provided a fundamental transformation of the way women politicians are viewed.
Namely, at least in Pelosi’s case, the woman’s place is in the home, most definitely NOT the U.S. House!
As reported, in part, at the reference, Pelosi has outdone her goofy self in bitching about the way Republicans are handling the Obama ‘jobs lecture,’ fictitiously referred to as his ‘plan”:
Republicans have decided they're not going to give a rebuttal to President Obama's jobs speech later this week, a decision House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi took as a high affront to the White House.
Pelosi said the party's "silence" would "speak volumes about their lack of commitment to creating jobs."
"The Republicans' refusal to respond to the president's proposal on jobs is not only disrespectful to him, but to the American people," Pelosi said.
This from the woman who stated that the abortion issue was up in the air because the church Fathers had not decided with finality.
The woman who pushed for quick passage of the ObamaCare travesty so that we could ‘find out what’s in it’!
The woman who, speaking before a group of illegal aliens holed up in a church in San Francisco tried, to comfort the assembled criminal invader by assuring them that enforcing the rule of law was ‘un-American.’
On and on it goes, as Nancy Pelosi continues to embarrass the state of California while making goofy constituents in San Francisco bean with pride at her genius!

Unfortunately, our world is divided between those who have right ideas about making this a better place to live and those who have wrong ideas, who prove themselves right by making it a bad place. I have reference to the inflammatory comments being made by certain people.
Under the law, testimony not based on actual personal knowledge or observation of the facts in controversy, but of other facts from which deductions are drawn, showing indirectly the facts sought to be proved, Black’s Law Dictionary under circumstantial evidence, the evidence from which juries may infer to other connected facts which usually and reasonably follow according to the common experience of mankind, since we agree that juries made up of ordinary people is the best way to determine the right or the wrong of things, why would this not be so in all instances? Ask Barack Obama. We don’t know what he has in mind, and we really should. Obama is talking out of both sides of his mouth.
Pythagoras, an ancient Greek, said to be the father of mathematics, gave the world the Pythagorean theorem. The square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the two sides—if this is so, logic associated with numbers, would not numbers be associated with people as well as things? “If this is so that is so,” you have deduction—circumstantial evidence. Why do we limit logic? Why exclude humans, applying numbers solely to things?
Pythagoras studied mathematics under Egypt’s priesthood. He was ordained, and sworn to secrecy. We don’t know much about Pythagoras’ philosophy but we know that he discovered a mystical significance in numbers; that the numbers 1 through 9 stand, macrocosmically, for rational principles that govern and develop the universe. In Christian theology, the divine word or reason incarnate in Jesus Christ (John 1:1), the number 1 the beginning of everything, why would it not apply to the beginning of our lives?
Microcosmically, both Pythagoras and the cutting edge of science reason that numbers stand for characteristics, abilities and events. Pythagoras (and more lately science) knew that reality is of our making.
In the Bible, we read that God made heaven and earth. He made all other life forms and on the sixth day made man. In numerology, 6 stands for conscientious, the desire to bring harmony, truth, and a sense of balance into the environment. Love and compassion are uppermost in the number 6. The number 6 is the teacher, the healer.
In the Bible, on the seventh day, God, knowing he had done good, rested. The seventh day, the Sabbath, is a day of rest and meditation. In numerology, 7 seeks answers. It tries to establish a philosophy by which to live and attempts to penetrate the mystery behind its existence—never before questioned. Because solitude is necessary for analysis, the 7 feels the need to spend time alone, away from the crowds—in touch with nature. Long sought goals, I can tell you, are magically realized when we take time to think about our lives.
We see a connection with Egypt’s priesthood, numbers, and the Bible. Pythagoras saw in the heavens both quantity and quality. While figures represented quantity, numbers represented the spiritual quality in us.
Because every number over 9 reduces to 1 to 9, and these numbers are basic to quantity and quality, with understanding of all that numbers represent, one can understand an orderly progression. Many lives are out of sync with life’s intended progression. It all reverts back to the individual. In order to be in sync with the universe, you’ve got to be in line with the numbers. Once you realize this, you don’t feel threatened. You feel like you are in control. What does this say about name callers? They are more to be pitied than censored.

It was all I could do to refrain from throwing something across the room today when I heard that Obozo has ignored his generals again, and is going to require our troop strength in Iraq be reduced to around 3.000. News reports said that Leon Panetta "acquiesced" with the White House demands, to which an unrepeatable howl of rage erupted in my household. Panetta is linked at the hip to the White House, for God's sake. I reported on, and hounded 7471 elected officials (yes--that number is correct) about Panetta's long history of treason earlier this year, to no avail.
So just in the off-chance you may have missed this nugget (nothing to do with Panetta, YET, and everything to do with the seditious SOB in the White House) here is something to be paying attention to:
Vallely: Iran Goal EMPs on US Coastal Cities in Reach
Bob Beauprez
Given the fact that Iran has been contributing heavily to our casualties in both Iraq and Afghanistan for a long time, and the perceived weakness of a Muslim Anarchist in the White House here in the USofA, there is more going on here than meets the eye.
Take, for example, the thug Jimmy Hoffa Jr. calling Tea Party folks "sons-of-bitches", and that idiot Biden calling us "barbarians at the gate", both of these contemptible totalitarian thugs inciting violence we've never before seen in any political theater in this nation.
And then we find this gem, as if this traitor-in-chief thought anything different would result from his un-Constitutional actions in Libya---we wondered why all of a sudden Libya was so important to this tin-pot American dictator:
Jihadists plot to take over Libya
Jihadists among the Libyan rebels revealed plans last week on the Internet to subvert the post-Moammar Gadhafi government and create an Islamist state, according to U.S. intelligence agencies.
U.S. officials said spy agencies are stepping up surveillance of Islamist-oriented elements among Libyan rebels. A government report circulated Tuesday said extremists were observed “strategizing” on Internet forums about how to set up an Islamist state in Libya after the regime of Col. Gadhafi is defeated.
“Several forum participants have suggested that, following a transitional stage, the battle should turn against secularist rebels and members of the [rebels’] Transitional National Council,” the unclassified report stated.
Some U.S. officials sought to play down the remarks by noting that such Internet postings are not always accurate measures of jihadist plans.
The report said the jihadists’ strength and influence on the ground “are uncertain at this time.”

My question would be, AGAIN, HOW MUCH MORE ARE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE GOING TO TAKE BEFORE THESE BASTARDS ARE REMOVED FROM POWER, EITHER BY DECLARATION OR BY FORCE, OR A COMBINATION THEREOF? There are remedies, but with the courts now stacked also, we're running out of options, and out of time. I believe that Sept. 11 and/or 17 will be a watershed moment in our history. Whether it's a good or a bad one probably depends entirely on us.
We have a Muslim Anarchist in the White House, he is surrounded by the same, and also by violent racists in the Congressional Black Caucus, the Democratic Socialists of America, the Unions, and a great many blacks and latinos in this nation just spoiling for a fight.
I wish I had a better plan than lock & load, but I don't know if we have the time left. Sure, there's lots of plans, lots of options. I just don't believe that we'll be given the time to use them. I know some of these folks look like complete idiots, but remember one thing: It is their kind that have destroyed entire civilizations for thousands of years. DON'T FORGET THAT.
"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners openly. But the traitor moves among those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the galleys, heard in the very hall of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor—he speaks in the accents familiar to his victims, and wears their face and their garment, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation—he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city—he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to be feared." ......Cicero, 42 B.C.E
By John W. Lillpop
America is about to commemorate the 10th anniversary of 9/11. We do so while embroiled in wretched partisan politics, despite the promise of ‘post-partisan’ utopia from Barack Obama.
Given the emotional significance of this anniversary, one would expect candidates from both major political parties to deliver inspirational eulogies on behalf of the 3,000 victims and their families, and to remind Americans of the urgent need to remain ever diligent in fighting Islamafascism.
Unfortunately, delivering uplifting cries of patriotism is simply not in the DNA of most liberals, including the erstwhile community organizer now occupying the Oval Office.
Rather than working to unify Americans in remembrance of that awful September morning and of the wars that must still be waged and won in order to preserve American independence and freedom, President Barack Obama has made statements in the past which suggest that he sides with terrorists.
An example as reported by Aaron Klein at wnd.com:
"Obama's comments about legitimate causes' of terror groups and 'root problems of causes and dangers' seems to echo little-noticed remarks the presidential candidate made eight days after 9/11 in which he said the attacks were carried out because of a lack of "empathy" for others' suffering on the part of al-Quaeda, whose terrorist ideology 'grows out of a climate of poverty and ignorance, helplessness and despair.'All of which proves that, despite his protestations to the contrary, Obama was indeed paying attention during the terrorist-friendly rants delivered by Reverend Jeremiah Wright.
"Obama went on to imply the Sept. 11 attacks were, in part, a result of U.S. policy, lecturing the American military to minimize civilian casualties in the Middle East and urging action opposing 'bigotry or discrimination directed against neighbors and friends of Middle-Eastern descent.'
"Even as I hope for some measure of peace and comfort to the bereaved families, I must also hope that we, as a nation, draw some measure of wisdom from this tragedy," Obama wrote in a piece about 9/11 published Sept. 19, 2001, in Chicago's Hyde Park Herald."
Furthermore, if Obama wants the U.S. to determine the "root causes" for 9/11, then he seems to be implying that ramming jumbo jets into New York City skyscrapers and the Pentagon might be more acceptable if we only knew WHY the terrorists decided to cremate 3,000 innocent Americans.
Perhaps Mohamed Atta had a disturbed childhood in which he was unfairly denied the opportunity to become a suicide bomber, and 9/11 was his way of acting out against overly strict parents?
Or perhaps the late Osama bin Laden desired to murder tens of millions of Americans because, during his youth, he was molested by a gay mullah in an isolated cave in the mountains of Pakistan?
According to people who think like Obama and Representative Barbara Lee (D-CA), instead of attacking Al-Quaeda conclaves in Afghanistan in October, 2001, President Bush should have offered to meet with OBL and other Islamofascists terrorists to determine the "root causes" for the wanton murders.
Hear ye, hear ye, progressive dim wits everywhere:
Islamofascists attacked America because they want to destroy our way of life and replace it with Sharia law and mandatory conscription into the army of Allah!
Period!
There is no romantic sub-plot here. Al-Quaeda would incinerate every home in America if they were able because they hate Democracy, Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, atheism, feminism--everything that falls short of reverence for, and obedience to, Allah!
Granted that Barack Obama is much too young to know much about Pearl Harbor, another grave attack on America.
However, any man or woman who aspires to the presidency of the United States should make an honest attempt to understand history.
Pearl Harbor 101, for Obama and friends:
President Franklin Roosevelt and the U.S. Congress did NOT waste precious time trying to determine the "root cause" behind the Japanese attack that left 2,500 American sailors dead in Pearl Harbor!
Instead, America declared war on the enemy, took actions necessary to execute that war, remained steadfast in determination to win, and eventually did win the war!
The lesson? When Americans have been attacked and are at risk of being attacked again, to hell with legitimate claims and root causes!
To paraphrase President Bush, who despite all his other failings, prevented a second 9/11 from happening on his watch, "Either you are with us or you are against us!"
Which is it, Mr. President?
Satire by John W. Lillpop
Throughout the ages, America has opened her arms and made room for a diverse mix of people and circumstances. We have overcome prejudices against women, African-Americans, Hispanics, and other racial minorities.
Our big tent has expanded to include gays and lesbians, transvestites, the handicapped, the blind, the stupid (Mostly liberals), Muslims, Buddhists, atheists, agnostics, Jews, Hindus, and other religious minorities.
America has embraced " Our diversity is our greatest strength" as the national slogan in our multicultural potpourri of insufferable tolerance and political correctness gone amuck.
Despite all of the social "progress" that has blessed this land, there is one class of people, despised like none other, for whom the bells of tolerance and acceptance have yet to toll.
That, would be the rich, the most abused, maligned, misunderstood, and persecuted minority in human history.
Being rich is such a wretched offense that, in and of itself, it can mitigate the social advantages that would normally accrue to those who are in one or more of the "protected" categories.
For example, a blind and deaf, non-English speaking, pregnant, lesbian, Hispanic illegal alien who suffers from chronic alcoholism and drug addiction, and who is a practicing Muslim terrorist specializing in IEDs, would normally be a favorite daughter to ACLU and La Raza lawyers, government bureaucrats, and liberal politicians looking for a victim to exploit for cheap political gain.
However, let that same miserable urchin have more than $1,000. in the bank, and be in possession of an automobile more snazzy than a 1990 Saturn with 300,000 miles on it, and you have a veritable Untouchable on your hands.
According to liberals, being rich is one of the most unpatriotic and un-American offenses that one can commit, nearly as unforgivable as blasphemy against the Holy Ghost.
Unless, that is, one's name happens to be Obama, Pelosi, Kennedy, Gore, Rockefeller, Bloomberg, Clinton, Soros, Winfrey, or any number of rich liberals whom are immune from the type of wealth-based character flaws that doom conservatives.
When you think about it, though, the rich should pay LESS, not more, taxes than the rest of us.
After all, the rich do not use public schools, opting instead to send their children to private schools.
The rich do not collect food stamps, welfare payments, disability checks, or unemployment perks.
The rich do not depend on the U.S. military to educate, feed, and house their children, preferring instead to send their kids to Yale, Harvard, Stanford, or Princeton.
The rich do not urinate in public and make pests of themselves outside Home Depot stores while waiting for a $5.00 "job opportunity" to appear.
The rich do not rely on public defenders to work their way out from under silly scrapes with the law.
The rich do not send their pregnant, unmarried daughters to Planned Parenthood or other public infanticide outlets, preferring instead to whisk their 'child with child' off to a castle nestled discreetly in the Swiss Alps where the whole sordid affair can be handled with dignity and sans unwanted attention.
Only a morally bankrupt institution, like the Democrat Party for example, would consider it acceptable to force people who use the least services to pay the most taxes!
This gross injustice must not stand. The American sense of fairness and equality demands that the yoke of discrimination not burden those, who through no fault of their own, are rich.
We must pass a constitutional amendment to extend the protection and dignity of equality to the most vulnerable minority in our society--the filthy rich.

How about this? A breath of fresh air! Meet Maine 's New Governor --- In case you haven't heard about this guy before, his name will stick in your mind! The new Maine Governor, Paul LePage is making New Jersey ’s Chris Christie look like an enabler. He isn't afraid to say what he thinks. Judging by the comments, every time he opens his mouth, his popularity goes up. He brought down the house at his inauguration when he shook his fist toward the media box and said, "You're on notice! I've inherited a financially-troubled State to run. Observe...cover what we do...but don't whine if I don't waste time responding to your every whim just for your amusement." During his campaign for Governor, he was talking to commercial fishermen who are struggling because of federal fisheries rules. They complained that 0bama brought his family to Bar Harbor and Acadia National Park for a long Labor Day holiday and found time to meet with union leaders, but wouldn't talk to the fishermen. LePage replied, "I'd tell him to go to hell and get out of my State." The Lame Stream Media crucified LePage, but he jumped 6 points in the pre-election poll. The Martin Luther King incident was a political sandbag which brought him National exposure. The 'lame stream' media crucified him, but word on the street is very positive. The NAACP specifically asked LePage to spend MLK Day visiting black inmates at the Maine State Prison. He told them that he would meet with ALL inmates, regardless of race, if he were to visit the prison. The NAACP balked and then put out a news release claiming falsely that he refused to participate in any MLK events. He read it in the paper for the 1st time the next morning while being driven to an event and went ballistic because none of the reporters had called him for comment before running the NAACP release. He arrived at that event & said in front of a TV camera, "If they want to play the race card on me they can kiss my ass", and he reminded them that he has an adopted black son from Jamaica and that he attended the local MLK Breakfast every year that he was mayor of Waterville. (He started his morning there on MLK Day.) He then stated that there's a right way and a wrong way to meet with the Governor, and he put all special interests on notice that press releases, media leaks, and all demonstrations would prove to be the wrong way. He said any other group which acted like the NAACP could expect to be at the bottom of the Governor's priority list! He then did the following, and judging from local radio talk show callers, his popularity increased even more: The State employees union complained because he waited until 3 P.M. before closing State offices and facilities and sending non-emergency personnel home during the last blizzard. The prior Governor would often close offices for the day with just a forecast before the first flakes. (Each time the State closes for snow, it costs the taxpayers about $1 million in wages for no work in return.) LePage was CEO of the Marden's chain of discount family bargain retail stores before election as governor. He noted that State employees getting off work early could still find lots of retail stores open to shop. So, he put the State employees on notice by announcing: "If Marden's is open, Maine is open!" He told State employees: "We live in Maine in the winter, for heaven's sake, and should know how to drive in it. Otherwise, apply for a State job in Florida !" Governor LePage symbolizes what America needs; Refreshing politicians who aren't self-serving and who exhibit common sense Sounds like someone we could use running this country!!!! | |

I awoke and became annoyed when I discovered Mary forgot to pay the water bill. That was the extent of my problems September 11, 2001. Meanwhile, many of my fellow Americans in the twin towers were faced with the unimaginable horror of deciding whether to leap to their deaths or be consumed by fire. Dear Lord.
Ten years after 9/11 Mayor Bloomberg banned prayer from the New York 9/11 Memorial Ceremony. And yet, Bloomberg supports the building of a mosque at Ground Zero.
The left supports Sharia Law while President Obama canceled the traditional National Day of Prayer at the White House for fear of offending Muslims.
Remarkably, thanks to the grace of God and the efforts of George W. Bush, America has not suffered another terrorist attack. And yet, the Obama administration is still seeking to prosecute CIA heroes who helped to protect us.
Terrorists caught on the battle field detained at Guantanamo Bay are treated with kid gloves; special concessions made out of respect for their religion, Islam, which includes meal choices from five menus, served at a specific temperature or thrown out and prepared again.
Muslim detainees are given prayer beads, a prayer mat and a Quran which can not be touched by non-Muslims because we are considered infidels. Thus, a Muslim interpretor gives the detainees their sacred items. At Guantanamo, arrows painted on the floor pointing east informs detainees in which direction to pray.
Meanwhile, three U.S. Navy Seals are facing court marital for allegedly giving a terrorist a fat lip.
Clearly, ten years after the horrific 9/11 attacks, America has two enemies seeking her destruction; Al-Qaeda and the American left who reside mostly in the Democratic Party lead by Barack Husein Obama. To save America, BOTH must be defeated.
The Bible documents on numerous occasions how God raised up a remnant. The modern equivalent of God raising up a remnant is the Tea Party movement; no leader, no figure head and no single governing organization. The Tea Party is simple We The People; individuals following their gifts and passions to turn our country around back to the principles and values which have made her GREAT!
The left is in panic mode to counter the Tea Party. Because their philosophy is so flawed, they can not win on it's merit. Thus, the left must resort to lies and ginning up class envy and racial hatred. Totally despicable.
I will spend 9/11 on Tea Party Express V national bus tour at our rally in Deltona, FL.
With forces on both sides of the political aisle fighting to maintain the status quo; crony-ism, bigger government and even increasing out of control spending, the tea party is the last hope for America; God's remnant to save America and restore her to her former glory.

SOMEWHERE I HEAR ORWELL CRYING
An Interview with Author Charly Gullett
Excerpts from the interview with my husband on his new book BEIRUT ARIZONA...you won't see this on Hannity tonight. AJ
=========
COVERT: The provisioning of cartels with weapons from the US has been informally characterized as an act of war against Mexico; do you agree?
GULLETT: No, I don't think it rises to that. But the ATF wasn't exactly acting in the role of peace-giver either. It is easy to see why some Mexican officials are calling this a violation of sovereignty and demanding that the individuals in the ATF/DEA/FBI, etc. responsible for the deaths of several Mexican officials, more than 150 police and probably hundreds of innocent Mexican citizens as a result of Operation Fast and Furious be turned over to the Government of Mexico for trial. Good luck on that. US Attorney General Eric Holder won't even give up documents to our own Congress.
COVERT: In your book (BEIRUT ARIZONA), you charge that an unholy alliance among renegade agents of our government, Mexican drug cartels and Islamic Jihadists in the Middle East exists and is aiding Mexican drug cartels. Why do you believe that the drug cartels would aid terrorists in physical attacks within the border of the United States, attacking their own customers?
GULLETT: I don't think this is any more complicated than the old adage "...the enemy of my enemy is my friend". In the end, I think the perception by American liberals of Mexican drug cartels as businessmen victimized by antiquated American drug laws, and the view that Islam is peaceful religion is entirely erroneous and we suffer the consequences of this psychological denial.
These are two competing criminal gangs composed of thugs; one secular, the other mystical but both are criminal organizations and if successful will eventually compete over the same turf. In the mean time, they work together in order to position themselves for this final reckoning. Like Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy during WWII, each believes themselves powerful enough to withstand the partnership.
COVERT: If your thesis is true regarding Hezbollah, do you think this nexus between cartels and Hezbollah, the arms trafficking are also an act of war against Mexico?
GULLETT: Absolutely. Hezbollah and the Mexican drug cartels are not just running a few guns or selling a few bags of dope to aging American hippies; these are enormous international criminal syndicates who are violating not only international drug and weapons trafficking laws but in the case of Islam are clearly intending on taking over the world and absorbing it into the new world caliphate so that "...Allah's religion is made victorious over all other religions..."
