| Class shows up. The doctor had his TV on in his office when the news of the military base shootings at Ft. Hood , TX came on. The husband of one of his employees was stationed there. He called her into his office and as he told her what had happened, she got a text message from her husband saying, "I am okay." Her cell phone rang right after. She read the message. It was an ER nurse, "I was the one who just sent you a text, not your husband. I thought it would be comforting but I was mistaken in doing so. I am sorry to tell you this, but your husband has been shot 4 times and he is in surgery." The soldier's wife left Southern Clinic in Dothan , AL and drove all night to Ft. Hood . When she arrived, she found out her husband was out of surgery and would be OK. She rushed to his room and found that he already had visitors there to comfort him. He was just waking up and found his wife and the visitors by his side. The nurse took this picture :  What? No news crews and cameras? This is how people with class respond and pay respect to those in uniform. I sent my cousin in Fayetteville , NC (Retired from Special Forces) that picture of George W. Bush visiting the wounded at Ft. Hood . I got this reply: "What is even better is the fact George W. Bush heard about Fort Hood, got in his car without any escort, apparently they did not have time to react, and drove to Fort Hood. He was stopped at the gate and the guard could not believe who he had just stopped. Bush only asks for directions to the hospital then drove on. The gate guard called that 'The President is on Fort Hood and driving to the hospital.' The base went bananas looking for Obama. When they found it was Bush, they immediately offered escort. Bush simply told them to shut up and let him visit the wounded and the dependents of the dead. He stayed at Fort Hood for over six hours, and was finally asked to leave by a message from the White House. Obama flew in days later and held a "photo" session in a gym, and did not even go to the hospital. All this I picked up from two soldiers here who happened to be at Fort Hood when it happened. This Bush/Obama/Ft. Hood story is something that should be sent to every voter in the U.S. Those who wanted "change" certainly got it. |

A Man that Cares
Our New National Security Advisor
I read this in todays Wall Street Journal that our new National Security Advisor, Tom Donilon, was the Executive Vice President for Law and Policy at (are you sitting down) Fannie Mae. His servie was during the conpany's accounting scandals. As the WSJ goes on to say "The good news is he will not be in charge of housing policy".
I canot imagine how a President can be so discontcted from public opinion that he will actually believe that the public will see Donilon as the best possible candidate in these troubled times. But then again we are only just citizens………….
If this not make you want to vote, I don't know what it will take.
The Staff: Obama appoints another Crook and the main stream news and Fox say nothing about this dirt bag.

Search for the truth. Democrats, Republicans, Independents, Constitutionalists,
Libertarians all need to pull together or watch the demise of a free democratic society.
Pray for Americans to seek the truth and take action for it will keep us FREE.
Our biggest enemy is not China , Russia , North Korea , and Iran our biggest enemy

need to do it ourselves.

Asshole of the Month - JUDGE STEEH
Judge George Caram Steeh
Everyone needs to remember this son of a bitch for helping King Obama shred the constitution and FORCE all Americans to buy health insurance. Where in the hell does this government get off in forcing us to buy anything? Where the hell are the freedoms from government that our fathers, grandfathers, great grandfathers died for? Has it come to this where these traitors to freedom are going to force upon us whatever they want? When do we say enough? Time is close and we must be ready for whatever comes.
The country has lost its way and it is almost time for Americans to rise up and take back our country. We must restore the freedoms that have been taken by voting the traitors to freedom out, fine. We all know what the other way is and we must be prepared if the call for freedom comes again. Never bend down to the government, never fear your government.
GOVERNMENT SHOULD FEAR THE PEOPLE AS
"WE THE PEOPLE"
ARE THE GOVERNMENT.
I never thought we may have to take action against those who wish to destroy our country from within but we were warned a long time ago this may happen. Communists, socialists, and other groups with various names are trying to change our way of life and it is now time to stop them.
Do I care how they are stopped, yes. The vote is the best way, but based on recent elections, I'm no longer sure this will ever happen as our elections are no longer fair. Fairness in elections died a long time ago and are only getting worse. Remember Al Franken? Prisoners voted this dirt bag in and this was election fraud at its finest. People are voting who are not allowed to vote. Dead people vote and nothing is done. How can anyone trust this government any longer. Now we have this traitor Judge allowing the government to take our freedom of choice.
WHERE THE HELL DOES THIS STOP
&
HOW SOON?

Subject: Fw: Obama Stops Wounded Soldier from Speaking!
SEND THIS ON,DO ALL YOU CAN,Our COUNTRY is in TERRIBLE TROUBLE!!! PRAY!!!!!!!!
*Subject:* OBAMA STOPS WOUNDED SOLDIER FROM SPEAKING!! Sent by Retired Vice Admiral Bob Scarborough, of Arlington , Va.
"I wanted to give you all some disturbing information on our wonderful president. I work with the Catch-A-Dream Foundation, which provides hunting and fishing trips to children with life-threatening illnesses.
This past weekend we had our annual banquet/fundraiser event in Starkville. As a part of our program, we had scheduled Sgt. 1st Class Greg Stube to come; he's a highly decorated U.S. Army Green Beret and
inspirational speaker who was severely injured while deployed overseas and didn't have much of a chance for survival.
Greg is stationed at Ft. Bragg , NC and received permission from his commanding officer to come speak at our function.
Everything was on go until Obama made a policy that NO U.S. SERVICEMAN CAN SPEAK AT ANY "FAITH-BASED" PUBLIC EVENTS ANYMORE.
Needless to say, Greg had to cancel his speaking event with us.
Didn't know if anyone else was aware of this new policy. Wonder what kind of news we all will receive next?
You're just starting to see the Obamanation. Is our religion on the list next??? I don't know about you, but this makes me furious.
This is just how the Nazis did it in the 1930s -- slowly, one step at a time. If you don't see the similarities, you are truly blind.
This should be sent to everyone regardless of party
affiliation!
The Staff: When will Americans wake up and see this traitor for what he is?

JayWalking and Education
How many of us have watched the Jay Leno show and couldn't believe just how stupid so many people are. If I was to guess the percentage of correct answers, it may not exceed 10%. This is from collage students, teachers, actors (I understand that), painters, bank workers and I found these folks covered all walks of life. There was a greater percentage of people from their mid forties and down that had no idea as to h.
Some of the questions were very hard such as "Who is the Vice President? Person being asked had no clue. Other questions were "who is this a picture of? George Washington was the correct answer but again, no clue. This went on and on until I started to realize some of these idiots may become a leader of our country and they were as smart as a "Pet Rock". Remember a Pet Rock could be told to "Sit" and it would, FOREVER.
Our education system is and has been broke ever since we allowed the inmates to take over along with the bed wetters from the 70's. A number of years ago I was working in Daytona Beach, Florida on the remodel of the Volusia County Mall and met a very attractive young lady in the construction trailer. She was the secretary for the contractor and I inquired why she was working here. She said she was a teacher but quit because some pencil neck principle had attempted to FORCE her to pass some students who had failed. She refused and left the teaching profession because these students were not able to read and write correctly. She stated she was not alone in being forced to pass children who couldn't read and write.
What makes this very sad is her mother was a teacher and she wanted to follow in her footsteps in teaching the children what they were going to need in life. The Volusia County School Board decided it was easy to replace her and move along kids that weren't ready and would only move along to fail again.
Our government wants to spend more money on education but that has not helped in 20+ years. Until the teachers are held responsible for quality teaching nothing will change. Until the teachers are tested to learn IF they are qualified nothing will change.
We can't place all the blame on teachers as a great deal rests with the parents. So many are no longer involved in the kids schooling until something has gone wrong. I hear talking heads like Geraldo and others say the teacher better not lay a hand on his little darling if they are misbehaving. I know many of us old folks remember being swatted in elementary school and most of us turned out very well. I bet even Geraldo was swatted and he didn't turn out to bad. No, I don't believe in beating kids but some times a swat can be useful.
How many of you went to a Catholic school? I had many friends that did and some of those Nuns beat the hell out of some kids. Based on what some said back in the day, it sounded pretty bad. Once in seventh grade I had a music teacher knock me out of my desk because a number of us were disrupting his class. He crossed the line that day and another student challenged him as the teacher was going after him next.
Something like I mention above crossed that line from corporal punishment to beating a child. The classroom has become a battle ground and the students who want to learn can't because of the very few who want to cause trouble. Money thrown at this IS NOT GOING TO HELP until the teachers can control the classroom again.

The classroom has become a battle ground and the students who want to learn can't because of the very few who want to cause trouble. Money thrown at this IS NOT GOING TO HELP until the teachers can control the classroom again.
Remember, to get the schools working again is pretty simple.
Get qualified teachers and help them stay current in their qualifications
Get the classrooms under control
DO NOT PASS ALONG STUDENTS JUST TO GET RID
OF THEM OR MAKE A QUOTA
What's an infidel?
Been around before, but worth remembering.
| This is a true story and the author, Rick Mathes, is a well-known leader in prison ministry. The man who walks with God always gets to his destination. If you have a pulse you have a purpose. The Muslim religion is the fastest growing religion per capita in the United States , especially in the minority races!! Last month I attended my annual training session that's required for maintaining my state prison security clearance. During the training session there was a presentation by three speakers representing the Roman Catholic, Protestant and Muslim faiths, who each explained their beliefs. I was particularly interested in what the Islamic had to say. The Muslim gave a great presentation of the basics of Islam, complete with a video. After the presentations, time was provided for questions and answers. When it was my turn, I directed my question to the Muslim and asked: 'Please, correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that most Imams and clerics of Islam have declared a holy jihad [Holy war] against the infidels of the world and, that by killing an infidel, (which is a command to all Muslims) they are assured of a place in heaven. If that's the case, can you give me the definition of an infidel?' There was no disagreement with my statements and, without hesitation, he replied, 'Non-believers!' I responded, 'So, let me make sure I have this straight. All followers of Allah have been commanded to kill everyone who is not of your faith so they can have a place in heaven. Is that correct?' The expression on his face changed from one of authority and command to that of a little boy who had just been caught with his hand in the cookie jar.' He sheepishly replied, 'Yes.' I then stated, 'Well, sir, I have a real problem trying to imagine Pope John Paul commanding all Catholics to kill those of your faith or Dr. Stanley ordering all Protestants to do the same in order to guarantee them a place in heaven!' The Muslim was speechless! I continued, 'I also have a problem with being your friend when you and your brother clerics are telling your followers to kill me! Let me ask you a question: Would you rather have your Allah, who tells you to kill me in order for you to go to heaven, or my Jesus who tells me to love you because I am going to heaven and He wants you to be there with me?' You could have heard a pin drop as the Imam hung his head in shame. Needless to say, the organizers and/or promoters of the 'Diversification' training seminar were not happy with my way of dealing with the Islamic Imam, and exposing the truth about the Muslims' beliefs. In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in the U.S. to elect the President! I think everyone in the U.S. should be required to read this, but with the ACLU, there is no way this will be widely publicized, unless each of us sends it on! This is your chance to make a difference... The Staff: Remember, Obama loves the Muslims and wants us to trust them. Yep, all the way to OUR graves. |
