A cowboy named Bud was overseeing his herd in a remote pasture in Texas when suddenly a brand-new BMW advanced toward him out of a cloud of dust.
The driver, a young man in a Brioni® suit, Gucci® shoes, RayBan® sunglasses and YSL® tie, leaned out the window and asked the cowboy, "If I tell you exactly how many cows and calves you have in your herd, Will you give me a calf?"
Bud looks at the man, obviously a yuppie, then looks at his peacefully grazing herd and calmly answers, "Sure, Why not?"
The yuppie parks his car, whips out his Dell® netbook computer, connects it to his Apple iPhone4S®, and surfs to a NASA page on the Internet, where he calls up a GPS satellite to get an exact fix on his location which he then feeds to another NASA satellite that scans the area in an ultra-high-resolution photo.
The young man then opens the digital photo in Adobe Photoshop® and exports it to an image processing facility in Hamburg, Germany.
Within seconds, he receives an email on his Palm Pilot® that the image has been processed and the data stored. He then accesses an MS-SQL® database through an ODBC connected Excel® spreadsheet with email on his Blackberry® and, after a few minutes, receives a response.
Finally, he prints out a full-color, 15-page report on his hi-tech, miniaturized HP LaserJet® printer, turns to the cowboy and says, "You have exactly 1,586 cows and calves."
"That's right. Well, I guess you can take one of 'em," says Bud.
He watches the young man select one of the animals and looks on with amusement as the young man stuffs it into the trunk of his car.
Then Bud says to the young man, "Hey, if I can tell you exactly what your business is, will you give me back my animal?"
The young man thinks about it for a second and then says, “Okay, why not?"
"You're a U.S. Congressman," says Bud.
"Wow! That's correct," says the yuppie, "but how did you guess that?"
"No guessing required." answered the cowboy. "You showed up here even though nobody called you; you want to get paid for an answer I already knew, to a question I never asked. You used millions of dollars worth of equipment trying to show me how much smarter than me you are; and you don't know a thing about how working people make a living - or about cattle, for that matter. This is a herd of sheep." now give me back my dog.

"Illinois GOP sends Armed Thugs
to Libertarians Homes
August 22, 2014. Oak Park, IL. (ONN) Illinois Republicans went way too far in their desperate attempt to keep the Illinois Libertarian Party off the November ballot. Imagine your doorbell rings and two giant, threatening thugs with guns tell you you’ve committed a crime by signing the Libertarian Party’s ballot access petition. They then force you against your will to sign a document recanting your original petition signature. It happened across Illinois and it’s a Class 4 felony. Illinois Republicans may go to prison. And they may just lose what was going to be a landslide General Election over it."

The chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Martin Dempsey, has backtracked on his previously issued statement that we must take out ISIS in Syria, and now says that he will NOT recommend U.S. military airstrikes against ISIS in Syria until he determines that they have become a direct threat to the U.S.
Uh…excuse me but didn’t Dempsey just sit alongside Defense Secretary…and known muslim sympathizer…Chuck Hagel a few short days ago in a joint press briefing, and agree with Hagel when he said ISIS is an “imminent threat to every interest we have” and that ISIS is “beyond anything that we’ve seen.” Yeah…he did.
And didn’t both he and Hagel say that ISIS must also be defeated in Syria as well as Iraq. Yeah… he did.
Gee I wonder what changed his mind…do the words ‘Barack HUSSEIN Obama’ come to mind…they sure do for us. Hey, we wonder if they ‘talked’ over one of Obama’s recent games of golf…or if Obama has ‘something’ on Dempsey.
Sorry folks but it’s just too damn convenient that now Dempsey…who was all gung-ho about taking out ISIS in Syria just a few short days ago…suddenly echoes Obama’s words by saying that he believes ISIS is more of a ‘regional threat’ and is NOT currently plotting or planning attacks against the U.S. or Europe. Guess he hasn’t looked at the ISIS conquest maps for starters or all the Iraqi heads rolling for finishers, and thrown in the middle is all ISIS’ threats to attack the U.S. done through social and conventional media.
Islamic State To Chicago: 'We Are In Your Streets'

"Americas must realize that self-scrutiny is not treason. Self-examination is not disloyalty."
We care, because America will be a better country when all of its children are well educated.
Fellow Texans, we got a challenge that only we as parents can make it a reality. I see an American that needs to be connected by a mutual interest, “our children’s future”. We are a multicultural state divided by race and nationality, with our own agenda and focus only on our own interest; now is the time to change and look toward our future and the economic and welfare of our children.
This is a wakeup call, our family and children must become our first priority. They are the future of our country and it’s up to us to make sure they get an education and the moral principles to get our country out of this mess and on the path of freedom and prosperity.
The U.S. Department of education predicts that this fall, for the first time in American history, there will be more minority students combined than white students in schools. But while Hispanic children make up a large portion of the minority students in the U.S., the problem lies in the fact that many of them don't graduate from high school, 25 percent fail to graduate.
Our job is to change this trend and make history in America. The future of the whole country, depends on our children being educated and give them the equal opportunity to become the best they can be.
We as parents must joined forces to address this problem, as a community it is in our best interest to stand as one in the promotion of education for our children, all parents should be more involved in their child’s education and on a day to day basis review the work done and monitor your child progress.
The strategy for progress by education.
1-Teacher-Parents partnership. The goal is for teachers and parents to work together to make sure the student is getting to curriculum standard and then raise the standard as they progress.
2-Parents and the church can work on programs to help students that need help, tutoring, sports, social events and the development of moral character and principles, Pastors should also speak about education and the congregation should pray for the progress on the education of students. The church and the parents can be a great impact in helping students perform better in the school.
3-Community leaders and the school. Promote incentives for students to focus on education and future jobs opportunities. Schedule talks that will benefit students and promote their education.
4-Business community and the schools. Promote education to help students succeed in the classroom. Sponsor schools on sports, camping, fishing and most important scholarships.
5-News media and the schools. Promote the importance of education and organize fund drives for scholarship through sport events and 4K runs.
6-Politics and the schools. Get politics out of the education of our children’s, common core is toxic; this Federal initiative that push for our country to adopt a set of clear college- and career-ready standards for kindergarten through 12th grade in English language arts/literacy and mathematics is political control on education. Texas stands on our right to self-determination and our constitutional rights.

We are now just two short months away from an election which will set the course for the next two years. Midterm elections historically have much lower voter turnout than do general elections and that is exactly why, in this particular election, we need to come out to the polls.
Numbers are everything.
If your chosen candidate didn’t win his or her primary…get over it and vote for whoever is on the ballot with an “R” behind their name. It may be a RINO, an establishment GOP candidate or someone with whom you don’t agree 50% of the time but believe me, we can hold them accountable much more easily than we can a liberal.
Today, in a nutshell, we’ll be looking at yet another of the REAL issues upon which we MUST focus if we have any hope whatsoever of starting to turn this ship around…
The border and our national security.
Right now…not because of any social issue…not because of any particular religious affiliation…we have neither a southern border not national security because of it.
It is directly because of the policies of the current LIBERAL regime and the liberal ideology…
Obama eligibility case lives!
Supreme Court's own precedent cited in new demand for resolution.
Published: 08/15/2014 at 9:52 PM
http://www.wnd.com/2014/08/obama-eligibility-case-lives/
The question of Barack Obama’s eligibility to occupy the Oval Office under the Constitution’s “natural born”citizen requirement is once again being appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, which has refused to hear a number of previous cases. Judges have ruled Obama’s eligibility is a political question that is not for the courts to decide. They have argued the plaintiffs didn’t have “standing,” the
requirement that they have sustained or will sustain direct injury or harm that can be redressed by a court.
Now, however, a plaintiff has surfaced who claims he has suffered a specific and individual injury, the $90 he is seeking to have returned by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The president’s eligibility is beingquestioned in a friend-of-the-court brief submitted to the U.S. Supreme Court by the constitutional experts at William J. Olson, P.C. and the United States Justice Foundation.
They are asking the high court to take up the case of Christopher John Rudy, a registered patent attorney who paid to the Patent and Trademark Office “fee increases” totaling $90 under the America Invents Act, “purportedly enacted into law in September 2011 by Congress and the president.” Rudy sued for a refund “on the ground that the AIA was invalid, having been signed into law by Barack Obama, a person who, was not a ‘natural born citizen,’ and thus, was
ineligible to hold the office of president of the United States.”
The courts rejected his claim, insisting they had no authority to look into Obama’s eligibility. The law firms’ brief explained Rudy’s argument. “Until now, the question of President Obama’s qualifications as a ‘natural born citizen’ has been dodged by the judiciary because those challenging his eligibility had not suffered any personal injury compensable by a court – and thus lacked ‘legal’ standing. There is no such barrier in this case because the patent
attorney suffered an out-of-pocket loss of $90 because of the new law signed by President Obama.”
No name calling, no hatred, no political agenda. This pilot hit the nail right on the head in his open letter.
A newspaper stated that some Muslim doctor is saying we are profiling him because he has been checked three times while getting on an airplane.
CANADIAN COMMENT APPEARS AT THE END OF THE ARTICLE AND IS MEANINGFUL.
THERE IS ALSO SOME RECENTLY ADDED BRITISH COMMENT.
YOU WORRY ME!
By Captain John Maniscalco, American Airlines Pilot
I've been trying to say this since 911, but you worry me. I wish you
didn't. I wish when I walked down the streets of this country that I
love, that your color and culture still blended with the beautiful
human landscape we enjoy in this country. But you don't blend in
anymore. I notice you, and it worries me.
I notice you because I can't help it anymore. People from your
homelands, professing to be Muslims, have been attacking and killing
my fellow citizens and our friends for more than 20 years now. I
don't fully understand their grievances and hate, but I know that
nothing can justify the inhumanity of their attacks.
On September 11, ARAB-MUSLIMS hijacked four jetliners in my country.
They cut the throats of women in front of children and brutally
stabbed to death others. They took control of those planes and
crashed them into buildings, killing thousands of proud fathers,
loving sons, wise grandparents, elegant daughters, best friends,
favorite coaches, fearless public servants, and children's mothers.
The Palestinians celebrated, the Iraqis were overjoyed as was most of
the Arab world. So, I notice you now. I don't want to be worried. I
don't want to be consumed by the same rage, hate and prejudice that
has destroyed the soul of these terrorists. But I need your help. As
a rational American, trying to protect my country and family in an
irrational and unsafe world, I must know how to tell the difference
between you, and the Arab/Muslim terrorist.
How do I differentiate between the true Arab/Muslim Americans and the
Arab/Muslim terrorists in our communities who are attending our
schools, enjoying our parks, and living in OUR communities under the
protection of OUR constitution, while they plot the next attack that
will slaughter MORE of the same good neighbors and children?
The events of September 11 changed the answer... It is not MY
responsibility to determine which of you embraces our great country,
with ALL of its religions, with ALL of its different citizens, with
all of its faults. It is time for every Arab/Muslim in this country
to determine it for me.
I want to know, I DEMAND to know and I have a right to know, whether
or not you love America..... Do you pledge allegiance to its flag?
Do you proudly display it in front of your house, or on your car? Do
you pray in your many daily prayers that Allah will bless this nation;
that He will protect it and let it prosper? Or do you pray that Allah
with destroy it in one of your Jihads? Are you thankful for the
freedom that this nation affords? A freedom that was paid for by the
blood of hundreds of thousands of patriots who gave their lives for
this country? Are you willing to preserve this freedom by also paying
the ultimate sacrifice? Do you love America?? If this is your
commitment, then I need YOU to start letting ME know about it
Your Muslim leaders in this nation should be flooding the media at
this time with hard facts on your faith, and what hard actions YOU are
taking as a community and as a religion to protect the United States
of America. Please, no more benign overtures of regret for the death
of the innocent, because I worry about who you regard as innocent....
No more benign overtures of condemnation for the unprovoked attacks,
because I worry about what is unprovoked to you. I am not interested
in any more sympathy; I am interested only in action. What will you
do for America - our great country - at this time of
crisis, at this time of war?
I want to see Arab-Muslims waving the AMERICAN flag in the streets. I
want to hear you chanting 'Allah Bless America'. I want to see young
Arab/Muslim men enlisting in the military. I want to see a commitment
of money, time and emotion to the victims of this butchering and to
this nation as a whole.
The FBI has a list of over 400 people they want to talk to regarding
the WTC attack. Many of these people live and socialize right now in
Muslim communities. You know them. You know where they are. Hand
them over to us, NOW! But I have seen little even approaching this
sort of action. Instead I have seen an already closed and secretive
community close even tighter. You have disappeared from the streets.
You have posted armed security guards at your facilities. You have
threatened lawsuits. You have screamed for protection from reprisals.
The very few Arab/Muslim representatives that HAVE appeared in the
media were defensive and equivocating. They seemed more concerned
with making sure that the United States proves who was responsible
before taking action. They seemed more concerned with protecting
their fellow Muslims from violence directed towards them in the United
States and abroad than they did with supporting our country and
denouncing 'leaders' like Khadafi, Hussein, Farrakhan, and Arafat.
IF the true teachings of Islam proclaim tolerance and peace and love
for all people, then I want chapter and verse from the Koran and
statements from popular Muslim leaders to back it up. What good is it
if the teachings in the Koran are good, pure, and true, when your
'leaders' ARE teaching fanatical interpretations, terrorism, and
intolerance? It matters little how good Islam SHOULD BE if huge
numbers of the world's Muslims interpret the teachings of Mohammed
incorrectly and adhere to a degenerative form of the religion. A form
that has been demonstrated to us over and over again. A form whose
structure is built upon a foundation of violence, death, and suicide.
A form whose members are recruited from the prisons around the world.
A form whose members (some as young as five years old) are seen day
after day, week in and week out, year after year, marching in the
streets around the world, burning effigies of our presidents, burning
the American flag, shooting weapons into the air. A form whose
members convert from a peaceful religion, only to take up arms against
the great United States of America, the country of their birth. A
form whose rules are so twisted, that their traveling members refuse
to show their faces at airport security checkpoints, in the name of
Islam.
We will NEVER allow the attacks of September 11, or any others for
that matter, to take away that which is so precious to us -- our
rights under the greatest constitution in the world. I want to know
where every Arab Muslim in this country stands and I think it is my
right and the right of every true citizen of this country to DEMAND
it. A right paid for by the blood of thousands of my brothers and
sisters who died protecting the very constitution that is protecting
you and your family.
I am pleading with you to let me know. I want you here as my brother,
my neighbor, my friend, as a fellow American...... But there can be no
gray areas or ambivalence regarding your allegiance, and it is up to
YOU, to show ME, where YOU stand. Until then,
"YOU WORRY ME!"
CANADIAN COMMENTS:
I totally agree with this sentiment. I hope you will forget all about
the 'political correctness' mandate we've had rammed down our throats,
and see if this doesn't ring true in your heart and mind. For Canada,
with all the multiculturalism we've been told is so important.... why
should we not, as Canadians, expect that the millions of new people
immigrating to our country will show their love for our country, their
allegiance to our country, their willingness to obey the laws of our
country, and acceptance that we are a Christian country? Just because
they are able to enjoy exercising their own religion, they should NOT
expect us to be ashamed of ours. They knew Canada was a Christian
country when they came here. Why are we erasing Christianity because
immigrants who are unwilling to adopt our way of life expect us to?
There is just too much insanity in the world, and we have to start
taking a stand. I hope you will forward this, so that
others will feel they are not alone if they are starting to feel the
same.
BRITISH COMMENTS:
At last a clear non-racist example of the concerns that the vast
majority of our Nations population probably share. The pilot's letter
encapsulates all that is fair and just about national
pride and protection of one's national culture. I fear it may be too
late here in UK, BUT we too want our country back in the form that
attracted all these different cultures to come here in the first
place!! In all our conversations with a wide range of friends and
acquaintances we have not met one that disagrees with our own views.
If only we all had the courage of our convictions to pass this on, it
is a statement that should be accepted as the heart-felt feelings of
someone with honest commendable national pride.

"Americas must realize that self-scrutiny is not treason. Self-examination is not disloyalty."
Fellow Americans let’s end this corporate greed.
Fellow Americans, since President Lyndon Johnson waged the war on poverty 50 years ago, Poverty in America is worse. Today more than 50 million Americans live below the poverty line, the poor are worse today than when President Obama took office in 2008.
According to the United States Census Bureau, it reported that the income inequality between the richest and poorest people grew to its widest in 2012, as the census recorded 46.2 million people living in poverty, today is 50 million and more. According to Michael Cembalest, the chief investment officer of JPMorgan Chase, as of 2011, corporate profit margins have reached levels not seen in decades and reductions in wages and benefits of the American worker’s compensation is now at a 50-year low relative to both company sales and US GDP. From 1992 to 2007 the top 400 earners in the U.S. saw their income increase 392% and their average tax rate reduced by 37%. The share of total income in America going to the top 1% of American households after federal taxes and income transfers increased from 11.3% in 1979 to 20.9% in 2007.
The 2013 study by Thomas Piketty and Emmanuel shows that the rise in the share of total annual income received by the top 1%, which has more than doubled since 1976, has had a significant effect on overall income inequality in America. Also in 2013, the Economic Policy Institute noted that even though corporate profits are at historic highs, the wage and benefit growth of the vast majority of Americans has stagnated. The fruits of overall growth have accrued disproportionately to the top 1%.
Who are the top 0.1 percent; they are executives, managers, supervisors, city managers, Police chief, Fire Dept. Chief and financial professionals. More than half of them work in closely held businesses; the five most common professions being managers, physicians, administrators, lawyers, and financial specialists. Doctors are more likely than any other profession to be in the 1 percent. According to PolitiFact and others, the top 400 wealthiest Americans have more wealth than half of all Americans combined.
Rising income inequality has been linked to the political polarization in Washington DC. Corporate USA control Washington. According to a 2013 study published in the Political Research Quarterly, elected officials are more responsive to corporate influences and the upper income bracket and ignore lower income groups.
Fellow Americans, the big picture is the enslaver of the American working class, the monetary incentive to protect the concentration of wealth on the rich, is aimed to the government, key lawyers, the Army and law enforcement. Americans need to wake up and see this ill economic strategy to control the US and world economic. We need to connect the dots, since Ronald Reagan they start this aggressive take over by the use of military intervention, free trade treaties, the outsourcing of jobs and control of foreign government by bribery and corruption, for the purpose of controlling the natural resources of the third world nations. We become the world’s bully and the economic predators of the world and deprive Americans and the world working class of a humane living wages.
Fellow Americans, Let’s end this shameful history of American exploitation we must demand a just compensation for the people that create wealth for the rich capitalist sector. The truth is that wealth is created by labor and capital, 70% labor and 30% capital, labor comprises of physical energy, intellectual input and life of the worker, money is the means to capitalized capital equipment and infrastructure. To provide an environment for peace and prosperity we must value humanity and introduce a minimum wage, this will countervail a decline of wages in the low-pay workers. A minimum wage could also be good for the economic because the poor will expend in goods and services and re-store the dignity of the American worker, let’s face it; Americans do not want charity they want to be self-sufficient; this is an opportunity for the government to limit payments for welfare benefits. Moreover, a minimum wage would, motivate employees to be more productive.

"Americas must realize that self-scrutiny is not treason. Self-examination is not disloyalty."
This is Ferguson, Mo. in August 2014.
This is the terrible reality of what happens when authority goes wrong. Ferguson, Mo. Police become an armed force in August 2014. Even if the killing of Michael Brown, a black man; was a case of justified armed violence, we are left with the same nasty taste: policing in the US has become a beast of terrifying burden, a dark promise of local brutality. The real story has been the sight of overpowering police forces confronting unarmed protesters who are seen waving signs or just their hands.
The case of Ferguson, with its police forces resembling an armed force, suggests that under the pretense of establish security; the protections of the people is being place in jeopardy and their constitutional rights trashed by an unruly policing manual, stacked to the brim with military kit. This militarization of the police forces in our country is the result of the patriot act. Our Bill of Rights is being demise under the pretense of “war on terrorism”. The Department of Homeland Security, that creature of feigned protectiveness, has been getting police authorities drunk with military grade hardware via “anti-terror grants”. We must stop the militarization of our police force; this military police force is inflicting terror on a civilian population that should be free of police brutality and abuse of power. We the people that should be protected by our police, become the victims of the police military manual that no citizen wants.
Protect your God given constitutional rights; contact your city mayor and councilman’s and stop the militarization of your city police force, their job is to protect the citizens not terrorize and abuse them

I have been engaged in a series of interviews, radio/TV discussing the topic, “Is The Tea Party Dead?” Because I am black, every interview has begun with me being asked my take on Ferguson before discussing the Tea Party.
Talk about the excrement hitting the fan; liberal interviewers are outraged when I say blacks are not routinely shot by police and that the MSM is promoting a deplorable, divisive and irresponsible false narrative.
One radio interviewer laughed at me saying she was looking at stats on her computer screen which proved otherwise. During another radio interview the host cited stats that say one hundred thousand people are shot by police every year in America. Bill O'Reilly stated the true FBI stats. Out of 12 million arrests only 400 fatal shootings; many justified.
Clearly, the Left is using lies to spread their despicable evil lie that blacks are targeted and murdered by police. I am struck by the liberal interviewer's passion behind spreading their lie. They act as if their belief is as true as there is a sun in the sky. The liberal media’s attitude is, of course the police murder black males. The media will slap around anyone who states otherwise.
The MSM's shameful coverage of Ferguson is as criminal as yelling fire in a crowded theater. Remember the outbreak of black flash mob attacks on whites? No one in the MSM is talking about the “Knock Out Game” also known as “polar-bear hunting”. Mostly black youths bet whether or not they can knock out an unsuspecting innocent white person with one powerful punch; women, seniors and more.
My God, what is wrong with these people in the MSM? Furthering the socialist/progressive agenda and bolstering Democrat voter registration and turnout has trumped all sense of decency and morality. If dividing Americans along racial lines and selling millions of black youths the lie that whitey (Republicans, Conservatives and police) are out to get them will further the Left's cause, the Left says so be it. This truly is spiritual wickedness in high places.
After several rounds of verbally beating me up side the head, realizing they can not force me to agree with their claim that cops are shooting blacks at will, the liberal interviewers move on to gleefully proclaiming the death of the Tea Party.
They cite how numerous Tea Party candidates have been defeated in primaries by GOP establishment candidates. As chairman of The Conservative Campaign Committee, my team, my wife and I have been boots on the ground in Mississippi, Tennessee and other Senate races. We are away from home so much that upon our return, Sammy our greyhound only gives me an acknowledging glance and retires to his bed. I think the pet sitter has conspired to steal Sammy's affection from me. But, that's another story.
In every Senate race, we (CCC) have witnessed the intense involvement, commitment and enthusiasm of the local Tea Party groups in support of our candidates. Every race has been a David vs Goliath scenario; highly qualified grassroots funded Tea Party conservative candidates vs deep pocketed GOP establishment and big business funded and MSM supported Democrat-Lite GOP primary candidates.
While Dave Brat's stone launched from his Tea Party slingshot, struck and defeated his GOP Goliath, we have lost several races. Our most recent disappointing loss is Joe Miller's run for U.S. Senate, Alaska. Several great patriots in our Tea Party family came together to endorse Joe; Sarah Palin, Mark Levin, Dr. Dobson of Focus on the Family, Conservative Campaign Committee and others.
I point out to interviewers that the Tea Party is more fired up than ever; more sophisticated, schooling and honing conservative candidates to perform well on the big stage. Several Tea Party groups have targeted various aspects of the electoral process which include addressing rampant voter fraud. Other TP groups have focused on reaching out to and educating low info voters. My patriot brother, Michael Holler (Mr Constitution) has been passionately educating and spreading the gospel of the Constitution for several years via his book, “The Constitution Made Easy” and lecture tours.
No, the Tea Party is not dead, nor will it ever die as long as there are those of us who love, God, family and country.
Without a doubt, we in the Tea Party have a very high mountain to climb. With all due respect, I say that is Okay. Our cause is just and God is on our side. We have lost battles, but the war is far from over. Our mission each day is to wake up every morning with faith and hope in our hearts which empowers us to faithfully continue fighting the good fight for that which we know is right. Faithfulness is the key to our victory.
We at Conservative Campaign Committee are planning our next mission. That's what I'm talkin' about! http://nws.mx/1mrL9Y1
