I have been informed by all the hard working people of America, that the only person who has done any work in the past 8 years and received all the blame is George W. Bush Jr. So he has earned his presidential salary. As Speaker of the House Pelosi has stated, all the problems and everything that has gone wrong during the past 8 years has been George W Bush’s fault. You sorry Congresspersons and Senators, regardless of party affiliation, have been lackadaisical and derelict in your duties. Based on your failure to perform your appointed duties for the past 8 years, I demand that you return all salaries and benefits that you have received to the US treasury. Because, as you know, the only person who has done anything the past 8 years has been the president, George W Bush Jr.
And dear Ms. Pelosi, I did not forget you, you had the audacity to call George W Bush Jr., the president of the USA, a loser, which showed gross disrespect to the office of the president of the USA. And if you had said that as a member of the military you could have been tried for insubordination to the Commander in Chief of the armed services of the USA and sedition. And furthermore, you at the time you called him a loser, he had a 27% approval rating and you, as the Speaker of the House, only had a 9% approval rating who is the loser?
To all of you sorry left wing bleeding heart liberal Democrats and Republicans who think that we should become a socialistic country, please do me and every patriotic American a favor, move to California and secede from the union and become your own country. Because every one knows that our forefathers created this country based on capitalism. In order to achieve the American dream you have to work hard, study hard and not be one of the lazy ass citizens who feel that the government owes them something. John F Kennedy said it best “It is not what your country can do for you; it is what you can do for your country”. Please let me know what address I can send the first contribution to establish this left wing liberal socialistic country you wish to become because as you all know Americans are very charitable. We just don’t like our hard earned money taking from us by a socialistic leadership and given to the lazy ass citizens who feel America owes them something. America owes you nothing but a safe and secure place to achieve what ever you want.

Angry? Who, me? by JD Pendry
Taken from the Internet.
October 12th, 2008
J. D. Pendry
Mob mentality? Racist? This I hear from the people who have never had a decent or kind word to say about any African-American who holds conservative views. From this foul-mouthed morally deficient garbage who viciously slanders a pregnant seventeen-year-old girl and her mother, I am now called racist for questioning the character of their chosen one. These people wonder aloud why a mother would not abort a Down syndrome baby. I love these selfless and thoughtful attitudes. This collection of reprobates believes that race and gender counts only if the woman is like Madonna or the man some foul-mouthed Ludacris like thug rapper.
I do not like to share much of my private life, but just for the record, I have been one-half of an interracial marriage for going on 36 years. The two men I count as most influential in my 28 years in the Army were a Puerto Rican First Sergeant named Pedro Olivari and a Black Sergeant Major named Jim White. One thing I have learned about the left leaners is they like to project their personalities onto others. The most bigoted are the first to call others bigots. You possess no morals, no ethics and to use your favorite expression, no tolerance for someone whose beliefs differ from yours. So spare me.
They lament the dangers of second hand tobacco smoke and carbon fuel while tossing botched abortion babies into utility closets to die. Yes, I suppose that I am just a tad bit angry. I am angry that the greatest country on earth is being stolen by a morally relativist collection of complete idiots. They have a utopian mindset. Their utopia is one of moral relativism where if it feels good to you do it and virtually anything is acceptable. Their utopia has no higher moral standard to trump their absence of a moral standard. This is why God must be removed from public and private life. They expect me to support and pay for their utopia with my tax dollars. I have breaking news for them. I hereby declare my half acre of hillside its own country and appoint myself as benevolent dictator for life. I could make many improvements to my new country, including my new “green” bunker, with the tax dollars I donated to Fannie, Freddie and their enabling Democrat politicians. Patriots do not pay taxes to regimes they do not support. I expect the William Ayers branded public education system probably removed the lessons of the Boston Tea Party from the curriculum. The education system they hope will enable them to provide America with the change they believe in.
Maybe these intellectually superior people can answer some simple questions for an old country boy. Why does the great American propaganda machine, which is in case you might not be aware is the cabal of major American print and broadcast media, send a legion of dumpster diving Obama sycophants to Wasilla, Alaska yet does not provide anything factual or relevant about their savior except that he makes their legs all tingly. Never has a more dangerous scam been forced on to the American people than the fraud being perpetrated now. In America, I can and should question the character of the man who wants to lead us. Lord knows I was not kind to John McCain in the past when I mentioned my fears that he could be bad for the military. No one called me names for that. Character counts and when I am attacked and called racist for raising legitimate concerns of character and judgment, I am no longer in America. I am in the precursor to some fascist hellhole akin to North Korea or Saddam Hussein’s Iraq, but it is not America.
For eight years, all that we have heard from these purveyors of objective journalism is what a rotten no account scoundrel is George Bush. No mention of the absence of attacks since 9/11. No mention of the successes of our Warriors. Then they run panting to their keyboards to tell us that their polls show that only 39 percent of Americans approve of him. They forget to mention, however, that their version of utopia is led by a left wing Congress that 90 percent of Americans count as a complete failure. They forget to tell us about Barney Frank and his gay lover who worked over at Fannie Mae while Barney was on the Banking Committee. They do not talk about Chris Dodd getting sweetheart mortgage deals and the most campaign funds of anyone from Fannie. They do not point out that Obama is number two on the all-time list of recipients of Fannie campaign dollars. They do not think anything of impeached federal judge, now Congressman Alcee Hastings saying that Governor Palin would not care what she does to Jews or Blacks. No one noticed that Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the Nation of Islam, called Obama the messiah. They do not point out the painfully obvious, which is that the only difference between Bill Ayers and Timothy McVeigh is the body count. They do not talk about Obama’s almost 20-year relationship with ACORN and its direct links to the mortgage and banking meltdown and nationwide voter fraud and that it was paid 800 thousand dollars by him to work for his campaign. No one points out that skewed and fraudulent voter registrations also skew the poll results taken by the pollsters who rely on voter registration lists, which is just another piece of a well-crafted propaganda campaign.
Ayers, Rezko, Odinga, Wright, Davis, ACORN… none of those political alliances matter, but a pregnant seventeen-year-old and a disabled American Warrior who cannot use a computer now those are real issues.
Angry? No not yet, but I am getting there.

545 PEOPLE By Charlie Reese
Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.
Have you ever wondered why, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?
Have you ever wondered why, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes?
You and I don't propose a federal budget. The president does.
You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations.
The House of Representatives does.
You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does.
You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does.
You and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve Bank does.
One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one president, and nine Supreme Court justices 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.
I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress. In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central bank. I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a president to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's responsibility to determine how he votes.
Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party. What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits.
The president can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it. The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes.
Who is the speaker of the House? She is the leader of the majority party. She and fellow House members, not the president, can approve any budget they want. If the president vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if they agree to. It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million cannot replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts -- of incompetence and irresponsibility. I can't think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.
If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair.
If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red.
If the Army & Marines are in IRAQ, it's because they want them in IRAQ .
If they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way.
There are no insoluble government problems!!!
Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power.
Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like 'the economy,' 'inflation,' or 'politics' that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do. Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible.
They and they alone, have the power. They and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees.
We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!

Bail out for the Stock Market
Well, I hope that we have a lot of grandchildren who can make the money to pay back the bail out of the rich. What is wrong with this picture?
1. A hardworking citizen of the United States of America has a small business and is making a living when the economy goes bad and it looks like he is going to lose his business. Who is going to bail him or her out? Answer no one and he or she will lose everything.
2. Rich hardworking citizen of the United States of America has a very big business and is making a killing when the economy goes bad. Who is going to bail out their business? Answer all the citizens of the United States of America including the hardworking citizens who lost their business.
I do not believe that we as the citizens of the United States of America should have to bail out the rich. The stock market is no different then a casino, you buy stock hoping that it will go up and if it goes up your get profit, but if it goes down you lose your money. In a casino you put your money in hoping to hit the jackpot, if you do, you make a profit, if you don’t, you lose your money.

God and our American Presidents...
I took this from the e-net
George Washington:"The Hand of providence has been so conspicuous in all this, that he must be worse than an infidel that lacks faith, and more than wicked, that has not gratitude enough to acknowledge his obligations." - George Washington's letter of August 20, 1778 to Brig. General Thomas Nelson
"Almighty and eternal Lord God, the great Creator of heaven and earth, and the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ; look down from heaven in pity and compassion upon me Thy servant, who humbly prostrate myself before Thee." - George Washington's prayer at Valley Forge
"Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.... And let us with caution indulge the supposition, that morality can be maintained without religion. Whatever may be conceded to the influence of refined education on minds of peculiar structure; reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail in exclusion of religious principle. 'Tis substantially true, that virtue or morality is a necessary spring of popular government." - Farewell Address, 1796
John Adams:"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion.... Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."
James Madison, the chief architect of the Constitution: "We have staked the whole future of American civilization not on the power of government, far from it. We have staked the future of all of our political institutions upon the capacity of each and all of us to govern ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God."
James Monroe:"The liberty, prosperity, and the happiness of our country will always be the object of my most fervent prayers to the Supreme Author of All Good." - March 5, 1821 in his Second Inaugural Address
John Quincy Adams:"It is no slight testimonial, both to the merit and worth of Christianity, that in all ages since its promulgation the great mass of those who have risen to eminence by their profound wisdom and integrity have recognized and reverenced Jesus of Nazareth as the Son of the living God."
Abraham Lincoln, the 16th President of the United States, led our nation through the Civil War. On March 30, 1863 President Lincoln, in his Proclamation for a Day of Prayer and Fasting, called the nation to find spiritual strength through prayer:
"Whereas, it is the duty of nations as well as of men to own their dependence upon the overruling power of God, to confess their sins and transgressions in humble sorrow yet with assured hope that genuine repentance will lead to mercy and pardon, and to recognize the sublime truth, announced in the Holy Scriptures and proven by all history: that those nations only are blessed whose God is the Lord: "And, insomuch as we know that, by His divine law, nations like individuals are subjected to punishments and chastisement in this world, may we not justly fear that the awful calamity of civil war, which now desolates the land may be but a punishment inflicted upon us for our presumptuous sins to the needful end of our national reformation as a whole people? "We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of Heaven. We have been preserved these many years in peace and prosperity. We have grown in numbers, wealth and power as no other nation has ever grown. "But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious Hand which preserved us in peace, and multiplied and enriched and strengthened us; and we have vainly imagined, in the deceitfulness of our hearts, that all these blessings were produced by some superior wisdom and virtue of our own. "Intoxicated with unbroken success, we have become too self-sufficient to feel the necessity of redeeming and preserving grace, too proud to pray to the God that made us! "It behooves us then to humble ourselves before the offended Power, to confess our national sins and to pray for clemency and forgiveness... All this being done, in sincerity and truth, let us then rest humbly in the hope authorized by the Divine teachings, that the united cry of the nation will be heard on high and answered with blessing no less than the pardon of our national sins and the restoration of our now divided and suffering country to its former happy condition of unity and peace."
Woodrow Wilson:“America was born a Christian nation. America was born to exemplify that devotion to the elements of righteousness which are derived from the revelations of the Holy Scripture.”
Teddy Roosevelt, 1917:"... in this actual world, a churchless community where men have abandoned or scoffed at or ignored their religious needs is a community on the rapid downgrade."
Calvin Coolidge:Unless we cling to the "things of the spirit," Coolidge warns,"all our material prosperity, overwhelming though it may appear, will turn to a barren scepter in our grasp. If we are to maintain the great heritage that has been bequeathed to us, we must be like-minded as the fathers who created it. We must not sink into a pagan materialism. We must cultivate the reverence which they had for the things that are holy. We must follow the spiritual and moral leadership which they showed. We must keep replenished, that they may glow with a more compelling flame, the altar fires before which they worshiped."
Dwight Eisenhower: "Without God, there can be no American form of government, nor an American way of life."
Harry Truman:"The fundamental basis of this nation's law was given to Moses on the Mount. The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teaching we get from Exodus and St. Matthew, from Isaiah and St. Paul. I don't think we emphasize that enough these days. I f we don't have the proper fundamental moral background, we will finally end up with a totalitarian government which does not believe in the right for anybody except the state."
Ronald Reagan: "If America ever ceases to be a nation under God, we will simply become a nation gone under."
"Government growing beyond our consent had become a lumbering giant, slamming shut the gates of opportunity, threatening to crush the very roots of our freedom. What brought America back? The American people brought us back -- with quiet courage and common sense; with undying faith that in this nation under God the future will be ours, for the future belongs to the free." - State of the Union Address, February 4, 1986
George W. Bush: "Freedom and fear, justice and cruelty, have always been at war, and we know that God is not neutral between them."
"I believe all these things because freedom is not America's gift to the world, it is the Almighty God's gift to every man and woman in this world."
"America stands for liberty, for the pursuit of happiness and for the unalienable right for life. This right to life cannot be granted or denied by government because it does not come from government, it comes from the Creator of life."
"Faith gives the assurance that our lives and our history have a moral design."
George Washington:"The Hand of providence has been so conspicuous in all this, that he must be worse than an infidel that lacks faith, and more than wicked, that has not gratitude enough to acknowledge his obligations." - George Washington's letter of August 20, 1778 to Brig. General Thomas Nelson

We must keep replenished, that they may glow with a more compelling flame, the altar fires before which they worshiped."
Dwight Eisenhower: "Without God, there can be no American form of government, nor an American way of life."
Harry Truman:"The fundamental basis of this nation's law was given to Moses on the Mount. The fundamental basis of our Bill of Rights comes from the teaching we get from Exodus and St. Matthew, from Isaiah and St. Paul. I don't think we emphasize that enough these days. I f we don't have the proper fundamental moral background, we will finally end up with a totalitarian government which does not believe in the right for anybody except the state."
Ronald Reagan: "If America ever ceases to be a nation under God, we will simply become a nation gone under."
"Government growing beyond our consent had become a lumbering giant, slamming shut the gates of opportunity, threatening to crush the very roots of our freedom. What brought America back? The American people brought us back -- with quiet courage and common sense; with undying faith that in this nation under God the future will be ours, for the future belongs to the free." - State of the Union Address, February 4, 1986
George W. Bush: "Freedom and fear, justice and cruelty, have always been at war, and we know that God is not neutral between them."
"I believe all these things because freedom is not America's gift to the world, it is the Almighty God's gift to every man and woman in this world."
"America stands for liberty, for the pursuit of happiness and for the unalienable right for life. This right to life cannot be granted or denied by government because it does not come from government, it comes from the Creator of life."
"Faith gives the assurance that our lives and our history have a moral design."

America
I remember as a small child, living on an Air Force Base in South Carolina, a band and a formation of Airmen carrying the flag of the United States marched by; in my child mind I felt happiness and pride and I thought the five hundred airman marching by was the biggest army in the world.
Today after 50 years of time and 20 years serving in the U.S. Army, whenever the national anthem is played or the flag of the United States is marched by me, I get tears in my eyes for all the dead and injured members of the Armed Forces who have given far and beyond what the average American citizen gives in a life time.
I think of all the prayers said over the graves of the dead and all the prayers said before and during the multiple armed conflicts that our service members have fought to keep America free.
I then think of a government without GOD and what it would mean to all of those who died to keep America safe and what would our forefathers think. I have come to the conclusion that there can be no America without GOD.
America was built by people who had their bible in one hand and their gun in the other. America would not be here without GOD and the gun.
The moral fiber of America has changed to where if it feels good, do it, you don’t have to answer to anyone but yourself.
They call themselves the beautiful people of Hollywood. The rich and fames decide what is right and what is wrong. They make a movie glorifying the most vile and disgusting things and want the American people to accept it as normal. They tell us that we are wrong to not want to hear the nasty music lyrics in public.
They tell use that the bible is old fashion and has no place in today’s America. Satan is alive and well in their hearts. No GOD, no peace and no America.

Prime Minister John Howard - Australia
Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.
Separately, Howard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques.
Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.' 'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom' 'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society learn the language!' 'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.' 'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.' 'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.' 'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.'
I would add to this anyone from any country, or any religious beliefs who does not like the American way of living take the freedom of the right to leave.
If you want to be an American learn how to speak English and conform to the American way of life.

The Destruction of America..taken from internet, 2005
Collected on the Internet, 2005
A Frightening Analysis
We all know Dick Lamm as the former Governor of Colorado. In that context his thoughts are particularly poignant. Last week there was immigration-overpopulation conference in Washington, DC, filled to capacity by many of American’s finest minds and leaders. A brilliant college professor named Victor Davis Hansen talked about his latest book, “Mexifornia,” explaining how immigration – both legal and illegal – was destroying the entire state of California. He said it would march across the country until it destroyed all vestiges of the American Dream.
Moments later, former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm stood and gave a stunning speech on how to destroy America. The audience sat spellbound as he described eight methods for the destruction of the United States. He said, “If you believe that America is too smug, too self-satisfied, too rich, then let’s destroy America. It is not that hard to do. No nation in history has survived the ravages of time. Arnold Toynbee observed that all great civilizations rise and fall and that ‘An autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide.”
Here is how they do it,” Lamm said: First to destroy America, “Turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and bicultural country. History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures. It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a society to be bilingual. The historical scholar Seymor Lipset put it this way: The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension, and tragedy. Canada, Belgium, Malaysia, Lebanon all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy, if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons, and Corsicans.”
Lamm went on: Second, to destroy America, “Invent ‘multiculturalism’ and encourage immigrants to maintain their culture. I would make it an article of belief that all cultures are equal. That there are no cultural differences. I would make it an article of faith that the Black and Hispanic dropout rates are due to prejudice and discrimination by the majority. Every other explanation is out of bounds.
Third, “We could make the United States a ‘Hispanic Quebec’ without much effort. The key is to celebrate diversity rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz said in the Atlantic Monthly recently: ‘The apparent success of our own multiethnic and multicultural experiment might have been achieved! Not by tolerance but by hegemony. Without the dominance that once dictated ethnocentrically and what it meant to be an American, we are left with only tolerance and pluralism to hold us together.’”
Lamm said, “I would encourage all immigrants to keep their own language and culture. I would replace the melting pot metaphor with the salad bowl metaphor. It is important to ensure that we have various cultural subgroups living in America reinforcing their differences rather than as Americans, emphasizing their similarities.”
“Fourth, I would make our fastest growing demographic group the least educated. I would add a second underclass, unassimilated, undereducated, and antagonistic to our population. I would have this second underclass have a 50% dropout rate from high school.”
“My fifth point for destroying America would be to get big foundations and business to give these efforts lots of money. I would invest in ethnic identity, and I would establish the cult of ‘Victimology.’ I would get all minorities to think their lack of success was the fault of the majority. I would start a grievance industry blaming all minority failure on the majority population.”
“My sixth plan for America’s downfall would include dual citizenship and promote divided loyalties. I would celebrate diversity over unity. I would stress differences rather than similarities. Diverse people worldwide are mostly engaged in hating each other – that is, when they are not killing each other. A diverse, peaceful, or stable society is against most historical precedent. People undervalue the unity! Unity is what it takes to keep a nation together. Look at the ancient Greeks. The Greeks believed that they belonged to the same race; and they worshiped the same gods. All Greece took part in the Olympic Games.
A common enemy Persia threatened their liberty. Yet all these bonds were not strong enough to over come two factors: local patriotism and geographical conditions that nurtured political divisions. Greece fell.
“E. Pluribus Unum’ – From many, one. In that historical reality, if we put the emphasis on the ‘pluribus’ instead of the ‘Unum.’ We can balkanize America as surely as Kosovo.”
“Next to last, I would place all subjects off limits ~ make it taboo to talk about anything against the cult of ‘diversity.’ I would find a word similar to ‘heretic’ in the 16th century – that stopped discussion and paralyzed thinking. Words like ‘racist’ or ‘xenophobes’ halt discussion and debate.”
“Having made America a bilingual/bicultural country, having established multi-culturism, having the large foundations fund the doctrine of ‘Victimology,’ I would next make it impossible to enforce our immigration laws. I would develop a mantra: That because immigration has been good for America, it must always be good. I would make every individual immigrant symmetric and ignore the cumulative impact of millions of them.”
In the last minute of his speech, Governor Lamm wiped his brow. Profound silence followed. Finally he said, “Lastly, I would censor Victor Davis Hanson’s book Mexifornia. His book is dangerous. It exposes the plan to destroy America. If you feel America deserves to be destroyed, don’ read that book:
There was no applause.
A chilling fear quietly rose like an ominous cloud above every attendee at the conference. Every American in that room knew that everything Lamm enumerated was proceeding methodically, quietly, darkly, yet pervasively across the United States today. Every discussion is being suppressed. Over 100 languages are ripping the foundation of our educational system and national cohesiveness. Barbaric cultures that practice female genital mutilation are growing as we celebrate ‘diversity.’ American jobs are vanishing into the Third World as corporations create a Third World in America – take note of California and other states – to date, ten million illegal aliens and growing fast. It is reminiscent of George Orwell’s book “1984.” In that story, three slogans are engraved in the Ministry of Truth building: “War is peace,” “Freedom is slavery,” and “Ignorance is strength.”
Governor Lamm walked back to his seat. It dawned on everyone at the conference that our nation and the future of this great democracy are deeply in trouble and worsening fast. If we don’ get this immigration monster stopped within three years, it will rage like a California wildfire and destroy everything in its path, especially The American Dream.
Origins: Richard D. Lamm was a Democrat wo served as governor of Colorado for twelve years from 1975 to 1987. Of the above-quoted third person account regarding his speech on the perils of muliculturalism, he told us in mid-June 2005:
"Yes, it is a speech I gave a year and a half ago in Washington D.D. It was a 5 minute
speech, and I am amazed and gratified it has received so much coverage."
He also passed along to us the following “revised version” of his speech:
I HAVE A PLAN TO DESTROY AMERICA
RICHARD D. LAMM
I HAVE A SECRET PLAN TO DESTROY AMERICA. IF YOU BELIEVE, AS MANY DO, THAT AMERICA IS TOO SMUG, TOO WHITE BREAD, TOO SELF-SATISFIED, TOO RICH, LETS DESTROY AMERICA. IT IS NOT THAT HARD TO DO. HISTORY SHOWS THAT NATIONS ARE MORE FRAGILE THAN THEIR CITIZENS THINK. NO NATION IN HISTORY HAS SURVIVED THE RAVAGES OF TIME. ARNOLD TOYNBEE OBSERVED THAT ALL GREAT CIVILIZATIONS RISE AND THEY ALL FALL, AND THAT “AN AUTOPSY OF HISTORY WOULD SHOW THAT ALL GREAT NATIONS COMMIT SUICIDE.” HERE IS MY PLAN:
I. WE MUST FIRST MAKE AMERICA A BILINGUAL-BICULTURAL COUNTRY. HISTORY SHOWS, IN MY OPINION, THAT NO NATION CAN SURVIVE TENSION, CONFLICT, AND ANTAGONISM OF TWO COMPETING LANGUAGES AND CULTURES. IT IS A BLESSING FOR AN INDIVIDUAL TO BE BILINGUAL; IT IS A CURSE FOR A SOCIETY TO BE BILINGUAL. ONE SCHOLAR, SEYMOUR MARTIN LIPSET, PUT IT THIS WAY:
THE HISTORIES OF BILINGUAL AND BICULTURAL SOCIETIES THAT DO NOT ASSIMILATE ARE HISTORIES OF TURMOIL, TENSION AND TRAGEDY. CANADA, BELGIUM, MALAYSIA, LEBANON – ALL FACE CRISES OF NATIONAL EXISTENCE IN WHICH MINORITIES PRESS FOR AUTONOMY, IF NOT INDEPENDENCE. PAKISTAN AND CYPRUS HAVE DIVIDED. NIGERIA SUPPRESSED AN ETHNIC REBELLION. FRANCE FACES DIFFICULTIS WITH ITS BASQUES, BRETONS, AND CORSICANS.
II. I WOULD THEN INVENT “MULTICULTURALISM” AND ENCOURAGE IMMIGRANTS TO MAINTAIN THEIR OWN CULTURE. I WOULD MAKE IT AN ARTICLE OF BELIEF THAT ALL CULTURES ARE EQUAL: THAT THERE ARE NO CULTURAL DIFFERNCES THAT ARE IMPORTANT. I WOULD DECLARE IT AN ARTICLE OF FAITH THAT THE BLACK AND HISPANIC DROPOUT RATE IS ONLY DUE TO PREJUDICE AND DISCRIMINATION BY THE MAJORITY. EVERY OTHER EXPLANATION IS OUT – OF – BOUNDS.
III. WE CAN MAKE THE UNITES STATES A “HISPANIC QUEBEC” WITHOUT MUCH EFFORT. THE KEY IS TO CELEBRATE DIVERSITY RATHER THAN UNITY. AS BENJAMIN SCHWARZ SAID IN THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY RECENTLY”
…THE APPARENT SUCCESS OF OUR OWN MULTIETHNIC AND MULTICULTURAL EXPERIMENT MIGHT HAVE BEEN ACHIEVED NOT BY TOLERANCE BUT BY HEGEMONY. WITHOUT THE DOMINANCE THAT ONCE DICTATED ETHNOCENTRICALLY, AND WHAT IT MEANT TO BE AN AMERICAN, WE ARE LEFT WITH ONLY TOLERANCE AND PLURALISM TO HOLD US TOGETHER.
IV. HAVING DONE ALL THIS, I WOULD MAKE OUR FASTEST GROWING DEMOGRAPHIC GROUP THE LEAST EDUCATED – I WOULD ADD A SECOND UNDERCLASS, UNASSIMILATED, UNDEREDUCATED, AND ANTAGONISTIC TO OUR POPULATION. I WOULD HAVE THIS SECOND UNDERCLASS HAVE A 50% DROP OUT RATE FROM SCHOOL.
V. I WOULD THEN GET THE BIG FOUNDATIONS AND BIG BUSINESS TO GIVE THESE EFFORTS LOTS OF MONEY. I WOULD INVEST IN ETHNIC IDENTITY AND I WOULD ESTABLISH THE CULT OF VICTIMOLOGY. I WOULD GET ALL MINORITIES TO THINK THEIR LACK OF SUCCESS WAS ALL THE FAULT OF THE MAJORITY – I WOULD START A GRIEVANCE INDUSTRY BLAMING ALL MINORITY FAILURE ON THE MAJORITY POPULATION.
VI. I WOULD ESTABLISH DUAL CITIZENSHIP AND PROMOTE DIVIDED LOYALTIES. I WOULD “CELEBRATE DIVERSITY.” “DIVERSITY’ IS A WONDERFULLY SEDUCTIVE WORD. IT STRESSES DIFFERENCES RATHER THAN COMMONALITIES. DIVERSE PEOPLE WORLDWIDE ARE MOSTLY ENGAGED IN HATING EACH OTHER – THAT IS, WHEN THEY ARE NOT KILLING EACH OTHER. A DIVERSE, “PEACEFUL, OR STABLE SOCIETY IS AGAINST MOST HISTORICAL PRECEDENT. PEOPLE UNDERVALUE THE UNITY IT TAKES TO KEEP A NATION TOGETHER, AND WE CAN TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS MYOPIA. LOOK AT THE ANCIENT GREEKS. DORF’S WORLD HISTORY TELLS US:
THE GREEKS BELIEVED THAT THEY BELONGED TO THE SAME RACE; THEY POSSESSED A COMMON LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE; AND THEY WORSHIPED THE SAME GODS. ALL GREECE TOOK PART IN THE OLYMPIC GAMES IN HONOR OF ZEUS AND ALL GREEKS VENERATED THE SHRINE OF APOLLO AT DELPHI. A COMMON ENEMY, PERSIA THREATENED THEIR LIBERTY. YET, ALL OF THESE BONDS TOGETHER ERE NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO OVERCOME TWO FACTORS… (LOCAL PATRIOTISM AND GEOGRAPHICAL CONDITIONS THAT NURTURED POLITICAL DIVISIONS…)
IF WE CAN PUT THE EMPHASIS OF THE “PLURIBUS,” INSTEAD OF THE “UNUM,” WE CAN BALKANIZE AMERICA AS SURELY AS KOSOVO.
VII. THEN I WOULD PLACE ALL THESE SUBJECT OFF LIMITS – MAKE IT TABOO TO TALK ABOUT. I WOULD FIND A WORD SIMILAR TO “HERETIC” IN THE 16TH CENTURY – THAT STOPPED DISCUSSION AND PARALYZED THINKING. WORDS LIKE “RACIST”, “XENOPHOBE” THAT HALTS ARGUMENT AND CONVERSATION.
HAVING MADE AMERICA A BILINGUAL-BICULTURAL COUNTRY, HAVING ESTABLISHED MULTICULTURALISM, HAVING THE LARGE FOUNDATIONS FUND THE DOCTRINE OF “VICTIMOLOGY”, I WOULD NEXT MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO ENFORCE OUR IMMIGRATION LAWS. I WOULD DEVELOP A MANTRA – “THAT BECAUSE IMMIGRATION HAS BEEN GOOD FOR AMERICA, IT MUST ALWAYS BE GOOD.” I WOULD MAKE EVERY INDIVIDUAL IMMIGRANT SYMPATRIC AND IGNORE THE CUMULATIVE IMPACT.
VIII. LASTLY, I WOULD CENSOR VICTOR DAVIS HANSON’S BOOK MEXIFORNIA – THIS BOOK IS DANGEROUS – IT EXPOSES MY PLAN TO DESTROY AMERICA. SO PLEASE, PLEASE – IF YOU FEEL THAT AMERICA DESERVES TO BE DESTROYED – PLEASE, PLEASE – DON’T BUY THIS BOOK! THIS GUY IS ON TO MY PLAN.
“THE SMART WAY TO KEEP POPLE PASSIVE AND OBEDIENT IS TO STRICTLY LIMIT THE SPECTRUM OF ACCEPTABLE OPINION, BUT ALLOW VERY LIVELY DEBATE WITHIN THAT SPECTRUM.” – NOAM CHOMSKY, AMERICAN LINGUIST AND US MEDIA AND FOREIGN POLICY CRITIC.

I WOULD DEVELOP A MANTRA – “THAT BECAUSE IMMIGRATION HAS BEEN GOOD FOR AMERICA, IT MUST ALWAYS BE GOOD.” I WOULD MAKE EVERY INDIVIDUAL IMMIGRANT SYMPATRIC AND IGNORE THE CUMULATIVE IMPACT.
VIII. LASTLY, I WOULD CENSOR VICTOR DAVIS HANSON’S BOOK MEXIFORNIA – THIS BOOK IS DANGEROUS – IT EXPOSES MY PLAN TO DESTROY AMERICA. SO PLEASE, PLEASE – IF YOU FEEL THAT AMERICA DESERVES TO BE DESTROYED – PLEASE, PLEASE – DON’T BUY THIS BOOK! THIS GUY IS ON TO MY PLAN.

What is an American?
Well, things have changed since I was a kid 50 years ago. What was an American then and what is an American now is as different as night and day.
American 1958
Pride - shown in tears that fell from eyes during the playing of the national anthem
Honor - displayed in all levels of government.
Dedicated - Citizens obeyed the laws, new citizens strived to become an American.
Respectful- to the Elderly and Police, remember the Golden rule.
Loyal - A U.S. Citizen could belittle the government, but we would never let foreigner disrespect the country.
Heros - We look up to Parents, Police, Soldiers, Teachers, Clergies', Sport athletes.
Integrity - honesty is the best policy, always tell the truth.
American 2008
Pride - Afraid to display pride in country, instead we display shame.
Honor - No such thing in government, win at all cost.
Dedicated - To ones self, new citizens strive to maintain their old countries ways no longer want to become Americans.
Respectful - only to ones self.
Loyal - don't care about anyone but their selves.
Heros - Convicted felons/athletes, O.J. Simpson, AC Hasting and Martha Stewart.
Integrity - Lie, cheat and steal until you get caught and lie some more - deny, deny, deny.

peaceful Islam
A GERMAN'S VIEW ON ISLAM
This is by far the best explanation of the Muslim terrorist situation I have ever read.
His references to past history are accurate and clear. Not long, easy to understand, and well worth the read.
The author of this email is said to be Dr. Emanuel Tanay, a well known and well respected psychiatrist.
A German's View on Islam A man, whose family was German aristocracy prior to World War II, owned a number of large industries and estates. When asked how many German people were true Nazis, the answer he gave can guide our attitude toward fanaticism.. 'Very few people were true Nazis,' he said, 'but many enjoyed the return of German pride, and many more were too busy to care. I was one of those who just thought the Nazis were a bunch of fools. So, the majority just sat back and let it all happen. Then, before we knew it, they owned us, and we had lost control, and the end of the world had come. My family lost everything.. I ended up in a concentration camp and the Allies destroyed my factories.
' We are told again and again by 'experts' and 'talking heads' that Islam is the religion of peace, and that the vast majority of Muslims just want to live in peace. Although this unqualified assertion may be true, it is entirely irrelevant. It is meaningless fluff, meant to make us feel better, and meant to somehow diminish the spectra of fanatics rampaging across the globe in the name of Islam. The fact is that the fanatics rule Islam at this moment in history. It is the fanatics who march. It is the fanatics who wage any one of 50 shooting wars worldwide. It is the fanatics who systematically slaughter Christian or tribal groups throughout Africa and are gradually taking over the entire continent in an Islamic wave. It is the fanatics who bomb, behead, murder, or honor- kill. It is the fanatics who take over mosque after mosque. It is the fanatics who zealously spread the stoning and hanging of rape victims and homosexuals. It is the fanatics who teach their young to kill and to become suicide bombers. The hard quantifiable fact is that the peaceful majority, the 'silent majority,' is cowed and extraneous.
Communist Russia was comprised of Russians who just wanted to live in peace, yet the Russian Communists were responsible for the murder of about 20 million people. The peaceful majority were irrelevant.
China 's huge population was peaceful as well, but Chinese Communists managed to kill a staggering 70 million people.
The average Japanese individual prior to World War II was not a warmongering sadist. Yet, Japan murdered and slaughtered its way across South East Asia in an orgy of killing that included the systematic murder of 12 million Chinese civilians; most killed by sword, shovel, and bayonet. And, who can forget Rwanda , which collapsed into butchery. Could it not be said that the majority of Rwandans were 'peace loving'?
History lessons are often incredibly simple and blunt, yet for all our posers of reason we often miss the most basic and uncomplicated of points: Peace-loving Muslims have been made irrelevant by their silence. Peace-loving Muslims will become our enemy if they don't speak up, because like my friend from Germany , they will awaken one day and find that the fanatics own them, and the end of their world will have begun. Peace-loving Germans, Japanese, Chinese, Russians, Rwandans, Serbs, Afghans, Iraqis, Palestinians, Somalis, Nigerians, Algerians, and many others have died because the peaceful majority did not speak up until it was too late.
As for us who watch it all unfold, we must pay attention to the only group that counts, the fanatics who threaten our way of life.
Lastly, anyone who doubts that the issue is serious and just deletes this email without sending it on, is contributing to the passiveness that allows the problems to expand. So, extend yourself a bit and send this on and on and on! Let us hope that thousands, world wide, read this and think about it, and send it on - before it's too late.

Archbishop of Canterbury submits to Muslims on sharia law
Elizabeth Krantz - 6 March 2008
The loopy Archbishop of Canterbury's recent call for the adoption of parts of sharia, or Islamic law, in Britain graphically illustrates the progress being made in Islam's silent invasion of the West by its Muslim vanguards.
In a speech to the Royal Courts of Justice on 8 February 2008, Dr Rowan Williams, leader of the world's 77 million Anglicans said that adoption of some aspects of sharia law was "inevitable".
"It seems unavoidable and, as a matter of fact, certain conditions of sharia are already recognised in our society" Dr Williams said.
There are 1.6 million Muslims in Britain, 2.7 per cent of the population.
The Archbishop's equally muddled-headed Australian offsider, Perth Anglican Archbishop Roger Herft supported the calls for sharia law.
Emboldened by these statements of capitulation, the Islamic Council of Western Australia said sharia law was already being practiced in a "hidden" fashion. The council is asking the Government to consider giving extra welfare benefits for Muslim men who have multiple wives.
Council spokesman Rahim Ghauri said if the men married their wives under Islamic law before coming to Australia, they should qualify for extra age pensions and family tax benefits.
Consider the hypothetical case of a Muslim man with four wives and ten children under the age of 13 and a further five children aged 13 to 15. His total benefits, according to a Centrelink officer we discussed the case with, would be $117,156 per annum.
Not bad work if you can get it.
And imagine the benefits in old age with five persons all drawing the aged pension and sharing expenses in one house.

I took this off the e-net, author unknown
WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT TO TURN ON THE TV AND HEAR ANY U.S. PRESIDENTAL CANDIDATE, DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN, GIVE THE FOLLOWING SPEECH?
'My Fellow Americans: As you all know, the defeat of the Iraq regime has been completed.
Since congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our mission in Iraq is complete. This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American forces from Iraq. This action will be complete within 30 days. It is now time to begin the reckoning.
Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries, which have stood by our side during the Iraq conflict. This list is short. The United Kingdom, Spain, Bulgaria, Australia, and Poland are some of the countries listed there.
The other list contains every one not on the first list. Most of the world's nations are on that list. My press secretary will be distributing copies of both lists later this evening. Let me start by saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to those nations on List 2 ceases immediately and indefinitely. The money saved during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the Iraqi war. THEN EVERY YEAR THERE AFTER IT'll GO TO OUR SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM SO IT WONT GO BROKE IN 20 YEARS.
The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world Hellholes and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption. Need help with a famine? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France In the future, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this money toward solving the vexing social problems we still have at home. On that note, a word to terrorist organizations, screw with us and we will hunt you down and eliminate you and all your friends from the face of the earth. Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France or maybe China. I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with France, Germany, and Russia. Thanks for all your help, comrades. We are retiring from NATO as well. I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan with more than two unpaid parking tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded and crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to this. You creeps have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those tickets tomorrow or watch your precious Benzes, Beamers and limos be turned over to some of the finest chop shops in the world. I love New York! A special note to our neighbors, Canada is on List 2. Since we are likely to be seeing a lot more of each other, you folks might want to try not pissing us off for a change. Mexico is also on List 2 Its president and his entire corrupt government really need an attitude adjustment. I will have a couple extra thousand tanks and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am going to put 'em? Yep, border security. Oh, by the way, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty - starting now. We are tired of the one-way highway. Immediately, we'll be drilling for oil in Alaska - which will take care of this country's oil needs for decades to come. If you're an environmentalist who opposes this decision, I refer you to List 2 above: pick a country and move there. It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own citizens. Some will accuse us of isolationism. I answer them by saying, 'damn tootin.' Nearly a century of trying to help folks live a decent life around the world has only earned us the undying enmity of just about everyone on the planet. It is time to eliminate hunger in America It is time to eliminate homelessness in America. To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thank you guys. We owe you and we won't forget. To the nations on List 2, a final thought: You might want to learn to speak Arabic. God bless America. Thank you and good night. 'If you can read this, thank a teacher. If you are reading it in English, thank a soldier.

THE AXIS OF IDIOTS
THE AXIS OF IDIOTS....
Too bad we don't have folks on Capitol Hill willing to speak out like this. J.D. Pendry is a retired Army Command Sergeant Major who writes for Random House. He is eloquent, and he seldom beats around the bush!
"The Axis of Idiots"
Jimmy Carter, you are the father of the Islamic Nazi movement. You threw the Shah under the bus, welcomed the Ayatollah home, and then lacked the spine to confront the terrorists when they took our embassy and our people hostage. You're the runner-in-chief.
Bill Clinton, you played ring around the Lewinsky while the terrorists were at war with us. You got us into a fight with them in Somalia and then you ran from it. Your weak-willed responses to the U.S.S. Cole and the First Trade Center Bombing and Our Embassy Bombings emboldened the killers. Each time you failed to respond adequately, they grew bolder, until 9/11/2001.
John Kerry, dishonesty is your most prominent attribute. You lied about American Soldiers in Vietnam . Your military service, like your life, is more fiction than fact. You've accused our military of terrorizing women and children in Iraq . You called Iraq the wrong war, wrong place, wrong time, the same words you used to describe Vietnam . You're a fake. You want to run from Iraq and abandon the Iraqis to murderers just as you did the Vietnamese. Iraq , like Vietnam , is another war that you were for, before you were against it.
John Murtha, you said our military was broken. You said we can't win militarily in Iraq . You accused United States Marines of cold-blooded murder without proof and said we should redeploy to Okinawa . Okinawa , John ? And the Democrats call you their military expert! Are you sure you didn't suffer a traumatic brain injury while you were off building your war hero resume? You're a sad, pitiable, corrupt and washed up politician. You're not a Marine, sir. You wouldn't amount to a good pimple on a real Marine's ass. You're a phony and a disgrace. Run away, John.
Dick Durbin, you accused our Soldiers at Guantanamo of being Nazis, tenders of Soviet style gulags and as bad as the regime of Pol Pot, who murdered two million of his own people after your party abandoned Southeast Asia to the Communists. Now you want to abandon the Iraqis to the same fate. History was not a good teacher for you, was it? Lord help us! See Dick run.
Ted Kennedy, for days on end you held poster-sized pictures from Abu Ghraib in front of any available television camera. Al Jazeera quoted you saying that Iraqi's torture chambers were open under new management. Did you see the news, Teddy? The Islamic Nazis demonstrated another beheading for you. If you truly supported our troops, you'd show the world poster-sized pictures of that atrocity and demand the annihilation of it. Your legislation, stripping support from the South Vietnamese, led to a communist victory there. You're a bloated, drunken fool bent on repeating the same historical blunder that turned freedom-seeking people over to homicidal, genocidal maniacs. To paraphrase John Murtha, all while sitting on your wide, gin-soaked rear-end in Washington .
Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Carl Levine, Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein, Russ Feingold, Hillary Clinton, Pat Leahy, Barack Obama, Chuck Schumer, the Hollywood Leftist morons, et al, ad nauseam: Every time you stand in front of television cameras and broadcast to the Islamic Nazis that we went to war because our President lied, that the war is wrong and our Soldiers are torturers, that we should leave Iraq, you give the Islamic butchers - the same ones that tortured and mutilated American Soldiers - cause to think that we'll run away again, and all they have to do is hang on a little longer. It is inevitable that we, the infidels, will have to defeat the Islamic jihadists. Better to do it now on their turf, than later on ours after they have gained both strength and momentum.
American news media, the New York Times particularly: Each time you publish stories about national defense secrets and our intelligence gathering methods, you become one united with the sub-human pieces of camel dung that torture and mutilate the bodies of American Soldiers. You can't strike up the courage to publish cartoons, but you can help Al Qaeda destroy my country. Actually, you are more dangerous to us than Al Qaeda. Think about that each time you face Mecca to admire your Pulitzer.
You are America 's "AXIS OF IDIOTS." Your Collective Stupidity will destroy us. Self-serving politics and terrorist-abetting news scoops are more important to you than our national security or the lives of innocent civilians and Soldiers. It bothers you that defending ourselves gets in the way of your elitist sport of politics and your ignorant editorializing. There is as much blood on your hands as is on the hands of murde ring terrorists. Don't ever doubt that. Your frolics will only serve to extend this war as they extended Vietnam . If you want our soldiers home as you claim, knock off the crap and try supporting your country ahead of supporting your silly political aims and aiding our enemies. Yes, I'm questioning your patriotism. Your loyalty ends with self. I'm also questioning why you're stealing air that decent Americans could be breathing. You don't deserve the protection of our men and women in uniform. You need to run away from this war, this country. Leave the war to the people who have the will to see it through and the country to people who are willing to defend it.
No, Mr. President, you don't get off the hook, either. Our country has two enemies: Those who want to destroy us from the outside and those who attempt it from within. Your Soldiers are dealing with the outside force. It's your obligation to support them by confronting the AXIS OF IDIOTS. America must hear it from you that these self-centered people are harming our country, abetting the enemy and endangering our safety. Well up a little anger, please, and channel it toward the appropriate target. You must prosecute those who leak national security secrets to the media. You must prosecute those in the media who knowingly publish those secrets. Our Soldiers need you to confront the enemy that they cannot. They need you to do it now.
J. D. Pendry - Sergeant Major, US Army, Retired
Too bad we don't have folks on Capitol Hill willing to speak out like this. J.D. Pendry is a retired Army Command Sergeant Major who writes for Random House. He is eloquent, and he seldom beats around the bush!
"The Axis of Idiots"
Jimmy Carter, you are the father of the Islamic Nazi movement. You threw the Shah under the bus, welcomed the Ayatollah home, and then lacked the spine to confront the terrorists when they took our embassy and our people hostage. You're the runner-in-chief.
Bill Clinton, you played ring around the Lewinsky while the terrorists were at war with us. You got us into a fight with them in Somalia and then you ran from it. Your weak-willed responses to the U.S.S. Cole and the First Trade Center Bombing and Our Embassy Bombings emboldened the killers. Each time you failed to respond adequately, they grew bolder, until 9/11/2001.
John Kerry, dishonesty is your most prominent attribute. You lied about American Soldiers in Vietnam . Your military service, like your life, is more fiction than fact. You've accused our military of terrorizing women and children in Iraq . You called Iraq the wrong war, wrong place, wrong time, the same words you used to describe Vietnam . You're a fake. You want to run from Iraq and abandon the Iraqis to murderers just as you did the Vietnamese. Iraq , like Vietnam , is another war that you were for, before you were against it.
John Murtha, you said our military was broken. You said we can't win militarily in Iraq . You accused United States Marines of cold-blooded murder without proof and said we should redeploy to Okinawa . Okinawa , John ? And the Democrats call you their military expert! Are you sure you didn't suffer a traumatic brain injury while you were off building your war hero resume? You're a sad, pitiable, corrupt and washed up politician. You're not a Marine, sir. You wouldn't amount to a good pimple on a real Marine's ass. You're a phony and a disgrace. Run away, John.
Dick Durbin, you accused our Soldiers at Guantanamo of being Nazis, tenders of Soviet style gulags and as bad as the regime of Pol Pot, who murdered two million of his own people after your party abandoned Southeast Asia to the Communists. Now you want to abandon the Iraqis to the same fate. History was not a good teacher for you, was it? Lord help us! See Dick run.
Ted Kennedy, for days on end you held poster-sized pictures from Abu Ghraib in front of any available television camera. Al Jazeera quoted you saying that Iraqi's torture chambers were open under new management. Did you see the news, Teddy? The Islamic Nazis demonstrated another beheading for you. If you truly supported our troops, you'd show the world poster-sized pictures of that atrocity and demand the annihilation of it. Your legislation, stripping support from the South Vietnamese, led to a communist victory there. You're a bloated, drunken fool bent on repeating the same historical blunder that turned freedom-seeking people over to homicidal, genocidal maniacs. To paraphrase John Murtha, all while sitting on your wide, gin-soaked rear-end in Washington .
Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Carl Levine, Barbara Boxer, Diane Feinstein, Russ Feingold, Hillary Clinton, Pat Leahy, Barack Obama, Chuck Schumer, the Hollywood Leftist morons, et al, ad nauseam: Every time you stand in front of television cameras and broadcast to the Islamic Nazis that we went to war because our President lied, that the war is wrong and our Soldiers are torturers, that we should leave Iraq, you give the Islamic butchers - the same ones that tortured and mutilated American Soldiers - cause to think that we'll run away again, and all they have to do is hang on a little longer. It is inevitable that we, the infidels, will have to defeat the Islamic jihadists. Better to do it now on their turf, than later on ours after they have gained both strength and momentum.
American news media, the New York Times particularly: Each time you publish stories about national defense secrets and our intelligence gathering methods, you become one united with the sub-human pieces of camel dung that torture and mutilate the bodies of American Soldiers. You can't strike up the courage to publish cartoons, but you can help Al Qaeda destroy my country. Actually, you are more dangerous to us than Al Qaeda. Think about that each time you face Mecca to admire your Pulitzer.
You are America 's "AXIS OF IDIOTS." Your Collective Stupidity will destroy us. Self-serving politics and terrorist-abetting news scoops are more important to you than our national security or the lives of innocent civilians and Soldiers. It bothers you that defending ourselves gets in the way of your elitist sport of politics and your ignorant editorializing. There is as much blood on your hands as is on the hands of murde ring terrorists. Don't ever doubt that. Your frolics will only serve to extend this war as they extended Vietnam . If you want our soldiers home as you claim, knock off the crap and try supporting your country ahead of supporting your silly political aims and aiding our enemies. Yes, I'm questioning your patriotism. Your loyalty ends with self. I'm also questioning why you're stealing air that decent Americans could be breathing. You don't deserve the protection of our men and women in uniform. You need to run away from this war, this country. Leave the war to the people who have the will to see it through and the country to people who are willing to defend it.
No, Mr. President, you don't get off the hook, either. Our country has two enemies: Those who want to destroy us from the outside and those who attempt it from within. Your Soldiers are dealing with the outside force. It's your obligation to support them by confronting the AXIS OF IDIOTS.

Share the wealth,
Mr. Obama said we must share the wealth. What does that mean? Does it mean that because I worked my ass off and got an education and worked hard at all the different jobs I have had in the 40 years that I have been working, I should be taxed at a high rate so the money can be given to the poor, uneducated and or lazy of this great country. Well I say horse shit, we have always had the poor and we always will, because 70 percent of them are to damn lazy to get an education or hold a job. Most of the people on our welfare rolls have better vehicles and living conditions then I do. This country was built on the hard work and sweat of immigrants who wanted a free place to work and live. They would not take charity and the result was this great country called United States America. There are several citizens stating that I am embarrassed to be an American and I am no longer proud of America. Well I have always been proud of America and always will be. Giving money to people who are too lazy to get a job does nothing but breed future leeches.
Citizen of the world
What does that mean “I am a citizen of the world”? Well, as far as I am concern it means that you no longer want to be a citizen of your own country.
If we were citizens of the world, will we need to start paying United Nation taxes, to take care of the rest of the world’s problems?
If we were citizens of the world, will we not need passports to travel from one country to another? Would we be able to come and go as we please? I don’t believe so.
If we were citizens of the world, will we have to throw out our countries laws and adopt the UN’s laws? I do believe so.
If we were citizens of the world, just think, you can wake up in the morning to a UN peace force knocking on your door to search for illegal guns.
If we were citizens of the world, the wealth that each and every one of you own would be taxed so that the wealth could be shared by all the world citizens.
I am not a citizen of the world, nor do I want to be. I am an American citizen and damn proud of it.
Yes the world has many problems, shortage of peace, food, water, shelter and too damn many individuals who can not take care of themselves. It is not the job or duty of the United States to take care of the world’s problems. Yes as a charitable jester we should assist in helping the poor of the world, but at the same time we need to understand that charity begins at home.

Ronald Regan
Didn't realize just how much he's missed, until I read and remembered some of the stuff he said...
and stood for.
'Here's my strategy on the Cold War: We win, they lose.'
- Ronald Reagan '
The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.'
- Ronald Reagan
'The trouble with our liberal friends is not that they're ignorant; it's just that they know so much that isn't so.'
- Ronald Reagan'
Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the U.S. was too strong.'
- Ronald Reagan
'I have wondered at times about what the Ten Commandments would have looked like if Moses had run them through the U.S. Congress.'- Ronald Reagan
'The taxpayer: That's someone who works for the federal government but doesn't have to take the civil service examination.' - Ronald Reagan
'Government is like a baby: An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.' - Ronald Reagan
'The nearest thing to eternal life we will ever see on this earth is a government program.'
- Ronald Reagan
'It has been said that politics is the second oldest profession. I have learned that it bears a striking resemblance to the first.'
- Ronald Reagan
'Government's view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it.'
- Ronald Reagan
'Politics is not a bad profession. If you succeed, there are many rewards; if you disgrace yourself, you can always write a book.'
- Ronald Reagan
'No arsenal, or no weapon in the arsenals of the world, is as formidable as the will and moral courage of free men and women.'
- Ronald Reagan
'If we ever forget that we're one nation under God,
then we will be a nation gone under.'
- Ronald Reagan

I pulled this from an e-mail I recieved
Subject: FW: Too true to be funny
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Keep love in the heart and hate out. Worry never; God cares and is alive. Live simply, Work happily, Pray expectantly, Serve sincerely, Deal justly, Speak kindly, Give heartily, Trust restfully.
This is too true to be funny. The next time you hear a politician use the Word 'billion' in a casual manner, think about Whether you want the 'politicians' spending YOUR tax money.
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, But one advertising agency did a good job of Putting that figure into some perspective in One of it's releases.
A. A billion seconds ago it was 1959.
B. A billion minutes ago Jesus was alive.
C. A billion hours ago our ancestors were Living in the Stone Age.
D. A billion days ago no-one walked on the earth on two feet.
E. A billion dollars ago was only 8 hours and 20 minutes, At the rate our government Is spending it.
While this thought is still fresh in our brain...
let's take a look at New Orleans ..
It's amazing what you can learn with some simple division.
Louisiana Senator, Mary Landrieu (D) Is presently asking Congress for 250 BILLION DOLLARS
To rebuild New Orleans . Interesting number...
What does it mean?
A. Well... If you are one of the 484,674 residents of New Orleans
(every man, woman, and child)
You each get $516,528.
B. Or... If you have one of the 188,251 homes in New Orleans , your home gets $1,329,787.
C. Or... If you are a family of four... Your family gets $2,066,012.

Birth Control
The one thing that is needed in this world is birth control. We are beyond over populated and are going to have food wars in the future, if we don’t stop the population growth. When we send food to the hungry without birth control there will be more people hungry next year to feed. So in reality we are not helping the hungry person we send food too, we are just prolonging the hungry without changing their environment so they can grow or hunt their own food. Stop feeding the hungry without birth control.
A Destroyer or a Saver
Well, I have come to the conclusion that we as a race are on our way out of existence if we don’t change our ways and stop being Destroyers instead of Savers. If we don’t learn to live with and protect the earth there will be a very short history of the Human race. We will disappear in the wink of an eye as time goes. The earth was not created for man, man was created by the earth along with all of the other creatures that tunnel, crawl, swim, fly and walk the earth.
Being a Destroyer mean hunting and fishing for more then we need. Destroyers create excuses to start wars against other countries, in order to obtain their land, minerals and other resources. Making more money then we need and we are using religion to assist us in this mission. The Bison is an example of Destroyer ways, attempting to kill off all of the Bison and we came very close to doing that.
Being a Saver means living within nature, taking only what you need and leaving the rest for the other creatures of the earth including other humans. Living within nature does not mean living like an animal, it means keeping the earth’s life first in any planning of humans engineering. We can still go to the moon and the stars without destroying the earth.
I am now a saver and will do what I can to save the earth for my future relatives.

Why we get screwed
I was listening to Bill O’Rielly when he explained how OPEC keeps production down to drive up the price of oil. How our oil company keeps refinement down to drive up prices and how speculators buy large quantities of Oil at high prices, which again drives our oil prices through the roof. We are screwed by our own people who sit back and laugh at us as we struggle to make ends meet. We have kept the same Congressmen and Senators in office year after year and they have not done a damn thing to make it better for us.
I believe that the right to reasonably priced housing, medical care, electricity, safe water, gas and food is a citizen's right by birth and it is the job of our Governors, Congressmen, Senators and President to ensure that we receive the above human needs at a reasonable price.
It is time that we as citizens instill in our elected officials that we the citizens of the country come before the rich and their own needs. I say again, what has your elected official done for you lately?

Brain Damaged Humans
I honestly believe that the U.S. Government uses the entertainment industry to divert our attention away for the major issues of life. I truly cannot believe that we as a civilization get so wrapped up over who will be the next American Idol, best dancer or sport player. We are having major problems with citizens losing their homes because the mortgage companies gave out loans they knew that the citizen could not pay back. We are at war in Iraq and the price of gas has gone through the roof. We are in the middle of an election and the most important thing that we are talking about is who we think will be the next American idol. What ever happens to us, we deserve. May God forgive us for our ignorance.

Politic and Leeches
Why do we as citizens, allow our Congressmen, Senators and our Presidents pass laws which give billions in tax breaks to the riches companies and individuals, while the average citizen struggles from paycheck to paycheck?
The government system in place today is broken and must be fixed.
We have Leeches sucking the life out of our country. Leeching is inherited.
The Rich Leeches get tax breaks they don’t deserve from our government.
The Welfare Leeches who never do anything to get off of welfare, starts with the Great-Great-Grand Mother, Great Grand Mother, Grandmother, Mother and Daughter.
The Fraud Leeches make false claims through our government systems which are suppose to help the truly needy: Welfare, Social Security, Medical, Taxes, Insurance and Workman Comp.
The Father Leeches leave home long enough for welfare checks to kick in, then return home and live off the welfare checks.
The Religious Leeches, who you see on TV telling you to send them money so they can have grand houses, cars and wear $5000.00 suits and gold and silver jewelry. They tell you that GOD will bless you for the money you send them and you believe them. Most of them are no more religious then my toilet and they don’t even pay taxes on the billions of dollars they get.
Men with no honor, Leeches who impregnate a woman and not pay for the child support.
The above is happening because there are no longer any morals in our country. It is OK to lie, cheat and steal as long as you don’t get caught. We look up to felons as if they were our heroes.

We all are going to be killed by:
21 Dec 2012 Mystery
Nuclear Explosions
Mega Volcanoes
2000 foot Tsunami
Mega Earthquakes
World Pandemic
Global Warming
New Ice Age
Asteroid Assault
Comet Assault
Magnetic shift of Poles
GOD destroys earth
Aliens destroys earth
Sucked into a black hole
Our sun goes supernova
Makes you wonder now a days, why can’t we and the earth last at least twice as long as the Dinosaurs did?

Where will it stop $10.00 a gallon Gas.
Our government does not care about its average citizen. The price of gas is going through the roof and our senators and congressman and president are sitting on their asses and doing nothing. The average worker in the state of Florida, makes $38,000.00 a year and are having a hard time making it from one pay check to the other. There is no shortage of oil, the oil industry says that it is refineries that we are short of, but they shutdown 7 refineries so that the price of gas would go up. Our government allowed this to happen. Last year the oil industry reported the largest profit ever record. So what do we do, well I think that it is time we get off our asses and starting telling our government leaders what we think and what we want. If we just do nothing then we deserve what we get.

No Love of Fellow Man
God looks down on this earth and sees the pain and sorrow of its inhabitants and cries. No love of fellow man exist, small children die and no one cries, the pain and suffering all over the world is so common place that the wealthy of the earth no longer see it, as if a blind has been closed in their minds. What will it take for all of us to see, that when someone dies of hunger, thirst or the lack of medical attention, we all die a little each time. How easy we wake in the morning to an air conditioned house and use the toilet, shower and kitchen without thinking about what a privilege it is, when one billion people on this earth must search for food and water on a daily basis.

Time Out
Even the shadows knew the hurt of the world as the last song bird dies. As the last leaf falls and the ground cracks, mothers clutching their children to their empty breasts. Dust covers the bible that could not help. No clouds to cry in sorrow as the last child dies. Sand has become our home. Great oceans and seas give up their useless treasures as the last drop of moisture evaporates in the sweltering sky. We, the old will cry and blame to no one. We are but a plague upon this earth and our time has ended.
I am madder hell and I won’t just standby and do nothing.
What has your Congressman or Senator done for you lately? I would say nothing. We elect them to office based on what they promise us that they are going to do and when they don’t do it what do we do? There is no process in place which we as the citizen can recall a senator or congressman for failure to perform as promised. Contact your Congressman and Senator and demand a process be put into the U.S. constitution or Bill of Rights which will allow the citizens to recall a congressman or senator who failed to keep his election promises.

Why is it?
Why is it, that the average American Marriage does not last five years?
Why is it, that the products made by Americans don’t last like the product made by other countries?
Why is it, that we paid people to have children on welfare?
Why is it, that we have so many illegal immigrants on our Health and welfare system?
Why is it, that our school system is rated below the rest of the world?
Why is it, that we allow our elected representatives violate the law and then re-elect them?
Why is it, that we pay such high salaries to athletes and minimum wage to our teachers and childcare providers?
Why is it, that so many citizens are against the individuals right to bear arms, when the Supreme court ruled that the citizen has no right to police protection as an individual?

I have always wondered:
Why is it, when they say it won't hurt, it hurts like hell?
Why do they have brail on the drive up windows of a bank ATM machine?

Why You Should own and train with a Firearm
Think about this: you and your wife are laying in bed; it is 2 O’clock in the morning, when you hear your front door being kicked in. You lock the bedroom door and pick up the phone and dial 911, the intruder is now standing outside of your bedroom, as you scream into the telephone telling the 911 operator that someone has broken into your house. The 911 operator tells you that she is sending the police to assist you. The intruder kicks in your bedroom door and you attempt to fight with him, he knocks you unconscious and 10 minutes later, you wake up and your wife has been beat and raped and your property has been stolen and the police still have not arrived to assist you. They arrive at 2:20 to take a report, twenty minutes after the initial call.
Police aren’t required to protect you. In Warren v. District of Columbia (1981), the D.C. Court of Appeals ruled, “official police personnel and the government employing them are not generally liable to victims of criminal acts for failure to provide adequate police protection. . a government and its agents are under no general duty to provide public services, such as police protection, to any particular citizen.” In Bowers v. DeVito (1982), the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals ruled, “[T]here is no constitutional right to be protected by the state against being murdered by criminals or madmen.” Isn't that comforting??

Too Many Religions No Peace
After living on this earth for the past 57 years, I have come to the conclusion that there are too many religions, which causes dead and hurt all over the earth. We have Christians, Judaism, Islam, Confucianism, Buddhists, Hinduism, Jainism, Shinto, Sikhism, Taoism, Vidun and all these and other religions have really screwed up this world. Through the centuries we have killed our own people for violations of our beliefs and then we decided that we are the only religion that GOD truly created. We then decided that we must push our beliefs on the rest of the world. Since the start of religion, we have killed millions if not a billion of citizens of the earth because they did not conform to our religion.
I do not believe for one second that the true GOD would want innocent men, women and children killed just because they did not believe in that religion that was being forced on them.
GOD is real to me, GOD created everything seen and unseen. The true GOD is not the little deity which all the different religions claim as theirs. GOD created everything that now exist or will ever exist. No matter where we go in this universe or the next, GOD will already be there waiting for us.

Myths About Gun Control

Myths About Gun ControlMyth No. 14: People don't need guns for self-protection because they can rely on the police.One of the most prevalent myths is that people don't need firearms because law enforcement officers can protect them. But just how much protection against criminals can citizens expect? Protection from Ordinary Crime. There are about 500,000 police officers in the United States. Adjusting for three shifts per day, vacations, desk duty, etc., leaves about 75,000 police on patrol at any moment to protect 250 million Americans.78 That's one police officer for every 3,360 potential victims. And experience shows that's not enough:79 Every year nearly five million people are victims of violent crimes - murder, rape, robbery or life-threatening assault. 98 percent of the time, violent and serious property crimes do not result in a prison sentence. The median sentence actually served by state prisoners declined from 21 months in the 1950s and early 1960s to 13 months in 1988. The expected punishment for all serious crimes, taking into account the low probability of going to prison, declined from an estimated 24 days in prison in 1950 to 8.5 days in 1990. "‘Saturday Night Specials' are used in only 1 to 3 percent of all violent crimes. "Riots and Civil Emergencies. After the Los Angeles riots, Korean-American merchants said they had no choice but to defend their stores and, in some cases, shoot at looters. Police, they said, ignored pleas for help that included attempts to flag down patrol cars and dozens of calls to the 911 emergency number80. Men with guns also defended Mann's Chinese Theatre and nearby businesses through the first night of rioting. At midnight the following night, a squad of National Guardsmen arrived, but, after talking with the defenders and looking over what they were doing, the commander concluded that his men could be of greater use elsewhere, and they left.81 After Hurricane Hugo devastated the U.S. Virgin Island of St. Croix in 1989, National Guardsmen and local police did nothing to stop the looting. Some even took part in it. Only one shopping center was spared - because the owner had heavily armed men patrolling the roofs.82 Lack of a Right to Government Protection. Gun control laws implicitly assume that the criminal justice system has the duty and the ability to protect individuals. Our judges have ruled otherwise.83 For example, New York State's highest court ruled in 1968 that a victim who was attacked after seeking police protection to no avail had no right to protection. The court refused to create such a right, saying it would impose a crushing economic burden on the government.84 For the most part, federal courts have agreed. The Supreme Court held in an 1856 case85 that local law enforcement officers had a general duty to enforce laws, not to protect a particular person.
In 1982,86 a federal court of appeals said:. . . [T]here is no constitutional right to be protected by the state against being murdered by criminals or madmen. It is monstrous if the state fails to protect its residents against such predators, but it does not violate the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment or, we suppose, any other provision of the Constitution. The Constitution is a charter of negative liberties: it tells the state to leave people alone, it does not require the federal government or the state to provide services, even so elementary a service as maintaining law and order. These rulings are probably consistent with the original intent of the founding fathers. Some legal scholars argue that the framers of the U.S. Constitution assumed that law-abiding people would largely be responsible for their own safety.87 They note that under English common law, which is the basis for U.S. law, the sheriff's main jobs were collecting taxes and enforcing government decisions. Keeping public order was a secondary duty.

No RACE and NO SEX
I think that we have come to the point in our country that we should stop using race and sex as a divider of the country. We should just be American Citizens and no longer be identified as our ethic groups or sex. I know a lot of you will say that I like being a Hispanic American, Black American, White American, Indian American, Oriental American and/or male or female. What I am saying here is we are being pulled apart by the divisions that are created by race and sex. When we look at each other we should only see a fellow citizen, who has equal rights to our country. The only time we should see a female citizen is when motherhood is evolved. Restroom should be designed so that they are individually enclosed so that we don’t need Male and Female restroom. If we don’t find a way to stop the divisions, then we as a country will stop to exist. The United Nations wants to become the world law and does not want individual countries with their own laws. It is time for us to say we are American citizens, our country is the United States of America and we do not want to become citizens of the United Nations.
Proud To Be White
Someone finally said itHow many are actually paying attention to this?There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans, Arab Americans, Native Americans, etc....And then there are just -Americans.You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction.You Call me "White boy,""Cracker," "Honkey,""Whitey," "Caveman,"...And that's OK. But when I call you Nigger, Kike, Towel head, Sand-nigger, Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink,...You call me a racist.You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you, so why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live?You have the United Negro College Fund. You have Hispanic History Month. You have Martin Luther King Day. You have Asian History Month. You have Black History Month. You have Cesar Chavez Day. You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi. You have Yom Hashoah. You have Kawanza. You have the NAACP and you have BET.If we had WET(White Entertainment Television)...We'd be racists. If we had a White Pride Day...You would call us racists. If we had White History Month...We'd be racists. If we had any organization for only whites to "advance"OUR lives,...We'd be racists.We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce. Wonder who pays for that? If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships...You know we'd be racists.There are over 60 openly-proclaimed Black-only Colleges in the US , yet if there were "White-only Colleges"...THAT would be a racist college.In the Million-Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights. If we marched for our race and rights,...You would call us racists. You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and red and you're not afraid to announce it. But when we announce our white pride...You call us racists.! You rob us, carjack us and shoot at us. But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug-dealerwho is running from the LAW and posing a threat to ALL of society...You call him a racist.I am proud....But, you call me a racist. Why is it that only whites can be racists?
America - Love it or Leave it.
Mom’s apple pie and the American way of lifeAmerica has changed a lot since my childhood and today we are no longer the America of my dreams. We have become a country of the world and are now so worried about being politically correct that simple childhood memories are history.
We can no longer have God in our schools or say the Lord’s name in our pledge of allegiance to our own country.
We can no longer say Merry Christmas because so many non-believers in Jesus Christ or even the Lord God almighty are now citizens of our country and are offended when you say Merry Christmas to them.
Halloween was a fun time to dress up as any thing you wanted to be, get as much candy as you could, eat it, get sick and dream about when it will come again next year. Today we no longer have Halloween because immigrants’ from other countries do not believe in it and their religious beliefs think that it is an evil day.
We have individuals in political positions that feel that the rights afforded us under our constitution are not the rights that the United Nations wants and they are trying, and sometimes succeeding, in changing this law.
We, as Americans, are afraid to speak our minds for fear of being called a redneck or religious fanatic.
Our government has decided that we must accommodate all faiths, languages and political beliefs even from illegal immigrants or persons who advocate the destruction of the United States of America.
Based on this beliefs, it has created a large crack in the fiber of this country.
What happened to believing in America and learning to speak the language and obey her laws?
Right wing liberals are destroying this country with their belief that we should comply with the world laws and not be an individual country.
I do not advocate any one being killed, hurt or denied their basic human rights because of their beliefs in religion, sex, morals, and/or political views, but I do believe that if their beliefs are not in line with my beliefs, I have the right to say so and do not have to conform to their way of thinking and should not have to worry that I am becoming a stranger in my own country.
Immigrants come to this country and try to change our ways to suit them, instead of trying to become an American. They still want to be Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Mexican, Jewish, Haitian, Jamaican, Cuban, Canadian, Russian, etc. These immigrants from other countries have the belief that they will become a US citizen just for the benefits it affords them, but their true home is their country of origin.
We now have Muslims in the country that follow a belief that if they cannot convert us to Islam then they must kill us. Islam is a bloody, innocent life taking religion and is used to suppress woman and keep men in control.
As Americans, we cannot allow this to occur; it is time that we take back our country. If any one of our new citizens does not like our laws, they need to find a new place to live.
There are several cities and counties in this country that do not speak our country's language, English, and you are lost and feel like an intruder in your own country.
