Wishing...

Just sitting here thinking and wishing that I could be among those attending the Restoring Honor rally in D.C. this coming Saturday, August 28, 2010. It was an honor, and exciting for me to be with the 9/12 ers in 2009.
Just a note to let you all know that my heart is with you and Glenn Beck on this historic day. I do hope that this bring the change to dignity, honesty and freedom this country so needs.

I also hope it makes people stop and think about who they are willing to have represent them November when they go to the polls.

God Bless America

An Email from my beloved Aunt...

Explanation:

I have often wondered why the conservatives are called the "right" and the liberals are called the "left."

By chance I stumbled upon this verse in the Bible:
Ecclesiastes 10:2 (NIV)

"The heart of the wise inclines to the right,
but the heart of the fool to the left"

Yep, that's it!

Is Obama a Celebrity that is out of touch with the American people?

I would appreciate any views on this subject. Obama made a speech recently stating that he understands our plight. He referred to the time a few years back when he struggled with his young family. As a man who has never held a real job, and has had assets in excess of $5 million, I am wondering how he can really relate to the average citizen.

Obama has apparently been sheltered his entire life. Too many details have really been obscured. I wonder how he traveled so extensively from the time of his youth, through college and his days of community organizing. Just who did foot the bill? Was it his grandparents or did he have a very wealthy mentor?
The average American has not had the opportunities afforded Obama, so how can he truly relate to the everyday obstacles we are confronted with?

Most of us struggled to get jobs, and pay our own way through college, even taking semesters or years off to be able to afford our education. I do not begrudge anyone who has had to work hard to earn what they have, and Americans are proud of their sacrifices to get ahead. As a people we have become stronger through sacrifice.

Since Obama has never had to sacrifice, I doubt that he has the strength or the fortitude to succeed as most Americans.

So exactly how is he in-touch with America?

Again the Taxpayers will be footing the bill for the Unemployment Benefit extension

The bill has been authorized to resume jobless benefits for our nations long-term unemployed.

I do not begrudge this good news to those affected by this bill, but there will be a price to pay down the line.

The worst part of this extension is that it is not being paid for by funds such as the unused stimulus.

It will be funded by more deficit spending that will add millions, if not more, to our national debt.

The Senate Republicans tried to get the Democrats in the Senate to act fiscally responsible, but it all fell on deaf ears.

So, it looks like we will again be lambasted by the Obama administration, and big government will hand out more cash to people in their weak attempt to prop up the economy. This will naturally hurt the generations to come through increased taxes to pay off the debt of this presidency.

I do support the extension of these benefits, but do not understand why the Democrats felt they had to put us yet deeper into a debt with a budget now exceeding $4 trillion dollars.

All this spend, spend, spend by Obama and the Democratic Congress will, without a doubt bring us into a longer recession and necessarily hurt businesses, both big and small.

The government does not create jobs, and spending on this bill, and other wasteful pork will not put Americans back to work!

Will we have change in November from some new faces in the Senate and Congress who will be accountable in addressing the economy?

Will Obama really listen to GOP concerns?

The president states that he is willing to listen, and is open to bipartisan solutions to the nation's woes. I think it would be wonderful, but actions speak much louder than words. If he really was interested in the views of the GOP, then he should actually listen to them and not just expect them to toe the line.
Mr President bipartisanship does not mean surrender!

Does Our President and Congress Know This To Be True?

it is of great importance to set a resolution, not to be shaken, never to tel and untruth. There is no vice so mean, so pitiful, so contemptible; that he who permits himself to tell a lie once, finds it much easier the second and the third time; til at length it becomes habitual; he tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world believing him. This falsehood of the tongue leads to that of the heart, and in time deprives all it's good disposition....Thomas Jefferson

Do they understand that the majority of American people are not so blind as to see the deceitfulness of their actions. This health care bill is not about politicians caring for our health with the injection of amendments, not concerning our health at all in their bill.
Jeffersons words have never rung clearer when he stated, "When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty"

God Bless America and keep us free!

Rally in D.C.

Wow! What a great couple of days near the capitol with 2 million of my friends. It was hard to describe these mobsters. They certainly believed in their convictions, and not one incident was reported. This was one of the most inspirational events of my time. I know we were heard, but we were not acknowledged to our satisfaction. Instead the president blew us off by stating that we were not representative of the American people.

We came from every state, and those who could not attend the Washington Tea Party, did so with a party of their own in every state in this great nation.

We the people will be heard from again and again, now and in 2010, and again in 2012. We cannot spend our way out of debt and we will rid ourselves of those who are proponents of such idiotic economic strategies.

See you at the next Tea Party!

God Bless
