			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have never heard this said as plain or as well.  Class war at its best.</p>
<p>The folks who are getting the free shit, don&#8217;t like the folks who are paying for the free shit, because the folks who are paying for the free shit, can no longer afford to pay for both the free shit and their own shit,</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>…and the folks who are paying for the free shit, want the free shit to stop, and the folks who are getting the free shit, want even more free shit on top of the free shit they are already getting!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now&#8230;  The people who are forcing the people who Pay for the free shit, have told the people who are RECEIVING the free shit, that the people who are PAYING for the free shit, are being mean, prejudiced, and racist.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>So&#8230; the people who are GETTING the free shit, have been convinced they need to hate the people who are paying for the free shit, by the people who are forcing some people to pay for their free shit, and giving them the free shit in the first place.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>We have let the free shit giving go on for so long that there are Now more people getting free shit than paying for the free shit.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now understand this.  All great democracies have committed financial suicide somewhere between 200 and 250 years after being founded.  The reason? The voters figured out they could vote themselves money from the treasury by electing people who promised to give them money from the treasury in exchange for electing them. The United States officially became a Republic in 1776, 231 years ago. The number of people now getting free shit outnumbers the people paying for the free shit. We have one chance to change that in 2012. Failure to change that spells the end of the United States as we know it.</p>
<p>ELECTION 2012 IS COMING</p>
<p>A Nation of Sheep Breeds a Government of Wolves!</p>
<p>Let’s Take a Stand!!!</p>
<p>Obama:   Gone!</p>
<p>Borders:   Closed!</p>
<p>Language:   English only</p>
<p>Culture:   Constitution, and the Bill of Rights!</p>
<p>Drug   Free: Mandatory Drug Screening before Welfare!</p>
<p>NO  freebies to:  Non-Citizens!</p>
<p>We the people are coming<br />
Only 86% will send this on.  Should be a 100%.  What will you do?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I don&#8217;t care that some troops pissed on some Taliban bodies. The idiot who put it on YouTube should be castrated. Thought you might like to read this letter to the editor. Ever notice how some people just seem to know how to write a letter? This one surely does! This was written by a Canadian woman, but oh how it also applies to the U.S.A. , U.K. And Australia .</p>
<p>THIS ONE PACKS A FIRM PUNCH Written by a housewife in New Brunswick , to her local newspaper. This is one ticked off lady&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8220;Are we fighting a war on terror or aren&#8217;t we? Was it or was it not, started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores on September 11, 2001and have continually threatened to do so since? Were people from all over the world, not brutally murdered that day, in downtown Manhattan , across the Potomac from the capitol of the USA and in a field in Pennsylvania ? Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn&#8217;t they? And I&#8217;m supposed to care that a few Taliban were claiming to be tortured by a justice system of a nation they are fighting against in a brutal Insurgency. I&#8217;ll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East, start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere belief of which, is a crime punishable by beheading in Afghanistan.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll care when these thugs tell the world they are sorry for hacking off Nick Berg&#8217;s head, while Berg screamed through his gurgling slashed throat.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll care when the cowardly so-called &#8216;insurgents&#8217; in Afghanistan , come out and fight like men, instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding in Mosques and behind women and children.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in search of Nirvana, care about the innocent children within range of their suicide Bombs.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll care when the Canadian media stops pretending that their freedom of Speech on stories, is more important than the lives of the soldiers on the ground or their families waiting at home, to hear about them when something happens. In the meantime, when I hear a story about a CANADIAN soldier roughing up an Insurgent terrorist to obtain information, know this: I don&#8217;t care. When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when he is told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank: I don&#8217;t care. Shoot him again.</p>
<p>When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a prayer mat, and fed &#8216;special&#8217; food, that is paid for by my tax dollars, is complaining that his holy book is being &#8216;mishandled,&#8217; you can absolutely believe, in your heart of hearts: I don&#8217;t care. And oh, by the way, I&#8217;ve noticed that sometimes it&#8217;s spelled &#8216;Koran&#8217; and other times &#8216;Quran.&#8217; Well, Jimmy Crack Corn you guessed it. I don&#8217;t care!!</p>
<p>If you agree with this viewpoint, pass this on to all your E-mail Friends. Sooner or later, it&#8217;ll get to the people responsible for this ridiculous behavior! If you don&#8217;t agree, then by all means hit the delete button. Should you choose the latter, then please don&#8217;t complain when more atrocities committed by radical Muslims happen here in our great Country!</p>
<p>And may I add: Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering, if during their life on earth, they made a difference in the world. But, the Soldiers don&#8217;t have that problem. I have another quote that I would like to share AND&#8230;I hope you forward All this. One last thought for the day:</p>
<p>Only five defining forces have ever offered to die for you:</p>
<p>1. Jesus Christ</p>
<p>2. The British Soldier.</p>
<p>3. The Canadian Soldier.</p>
<p>4. The US Soldier, and</p>
<p>5. The Australian Soldier One died for your soul, the other four, for you and your children&#8217;s Freedom.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When will the American people wake up????  Hopefully, before it&#8217;s too late.</p>
<p>We must get this dictator out of office !!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It &#8216;s hard to believe that CBS actually said something that wasn&#8217;t flattering to this  President!</p>
<p>Air Force One:</p>
<p>This is from Mark Knoller of CBS&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.</p>
<p>The pilots and crew of Air Force One are flying more hours than a rookie on a beer run.</p>
<p>They are tired of it too, and are adding more crew to Air Force-1, &#8211; I know this for a fact because I&#8217;m one of the instructors that trains the crews.</p>
<p>Our company (Atlas Air) has had the Air Force-1 and E-4 contract for over two years and I&#8217;ve been doing it for about 8 months now.</p>
<p>Last year (2010) Obama flew in Air Force One 172 times, almost every other day.</p>
<p>White House officials have been telling reporters in recent days that the Democrat doesn&#8217;t intend to hang around the White House quite so much in 2011.</p>
<p>They explain he wants to get out more around the country because, as everyone knows, that midterm election shellacking on Nov. 2 had nothing to do with his health care bill, over-spending or other policies, and everything to do with Obama&#8217;s not adequately explaining himself to his countrymen and women.</p>
<p>And with only less than 11 months remaining in Obama&#8217;s never ending presidential campaign, the incumbent&#8217;s travel pace will not likely slacken..</p>
<p>At an Air Force-estimated cost of $181,757 per flight HOUR (not to mention the additional travel costs of Marine One, Secret Service, logistics and local police overtime), that&#8217;s a lot of frequent flier dollars going into Obama&#8217;s carbon footprint.</p>
<p>$80 Million every time it lands &amp; takes off.</p>
<p>We are privy to some of these numbers thanks to CBS&#8217; Mark Knoller, a bearded national treasure trove of presidential stats.</p>
<p>According to Knoller&#8217;s copious notes, during the last year, Obama made 65 domestic trips over 104 days, and six trips to eight countries over 22 days. Not counting six vacation trips over 32 days.</p>
<p>He took 196 helicopter trips, signed 203 pieces of legislation and squeezed in 29 rounds of left-handed golf.</p>
<p>Obama last year gave 491 speeches, remarks or statements.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s more talking than goes on in some entire families, at least from fatherly mouths.</p>
<p>In fact, even including the 24 days of 2010 that we never saw Obama in public, his speaking works out to about one official utterance every 11 waking hours.</p>
<p>His aides indicate the &#8220;Real Good Talker&#8221; believes we need more.</p>
<p>Related: Obama spends nearly half his presidency outside Washington &amp;  plans to travel more.</p>
<p>Related:</p>
<p>Vacationer-in-Chief Spends $1.75 Million to Visit Hawaiian Chums.</p>
<p>Obama has spent over $100 million taxpayer dollars flying around in Air Force One, and probably another $100 million on his entourage.</p>
<p>Obama is just another tin-pot dictator living lavishly at the expense of his subjects</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>And we seniors have to &#8220;tighten our belts&#8221;</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thank God he is just another in a small handful of useless &#8216;one term&#8217; Presidents!</p>
<p>THANKS TO ALL WHO HELPED PUT THIS GREEDY WINDBAG IN OFFICE!! PLEASE BE MORE CAREFUL NEXT TIME!!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Pass this on to all your senior friends &amp; relatives&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&amp; any of those who would be interested in seeing where their dollars are really being spent.</p>
<p>In God We Trust.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The article below discusses the ACLU not being happy with their liberal presidents decision to sign the NDAA.  Well, while I like to see the people that are normally cheerin everything this leftist does. I may agree with them on this one. Not for the same reasons though. I am scared that he just gave himself the authority to lock up American citizens in Guatanamo, even though I thought he promised to close Getmo. Oh well another broken promise. I for one am glad it&#8217;s still open, but not with him having authority to put people he doesn&#8217;t like in there. Hell that could be me. I know, he says that won&#8217;t happen, but he also said a lot of other things that he has failed to deliver on. Except of course for rammin Obamacarre down our throats.</p>
<p>Read it and make your own decision. Frankly, him with that power freaks me out.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>In a scathing statement, the head of the ACLU, and  other leading civil liberties and human rights groups who were among President  Obama&#8217;s most ardent campaign supporters said the President&#8217;s decision to sign a  sprawling defense bill including controversial detainee provisions would tarnish  his legacy.</p>
<p>While voicing reservations, Obama reportedly signed  the act because it guarantees continued military funding. He promised the  provisions would comply &#8220;with the Constitution, the laws of war, and all other  applicable law.&#8221;</p>
<div>

<div><img src="http://a57.foxnews.com/static/managed/img/Scitech/Sept/156/88/Obama2.jpg" alt="Obama2.jpg" /></div>
<p>President Obama is criticized for his decision to sign a sprawling  defense bill which includes controversial detainee provisions.</li>
</ul>
<div id="qu_story_2"><iframe id="ifr-qu_story_2" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" width="156" height="243"></iframe></div>
</div>
<p><!-- /hmedia --></div>
<p>But human rights groups on the left say future  presidents may apply the law differently, adding the act is a sweeping expansion  of executive power &#8212; beyond what was seen under the <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/topics/politics/george-bush.htm#r_src=ramp">Bush  administration</a>. The ACLU and others slammed the president for putting his  name to this year’s National Defense Authorization Act, or NDAA, out of concern  that it would continue to allow indefinite detention while mandating military  custody for some detainees.</p>
<p>The ACLU and others slammed the president for  putting his name to this year’s National Defense Authorization Act, or NDAA, out  of concern that it would continue to allow indefinite detention while mandating  military custody for some detainees.</p>
<p>&#8220;President Obama&#8217;s action &#8230; is a blight on his  legacy because he will forever be known as the president who signed indefinite  detention without charge or trial into law,&#8221;  ACLU Executive Director  Anthony Romero said.</p>
<p>The national Muslim rights group CAIR slammed the  legislation &#8220;as a stain on our nation&#8217;s history &#8212; one that will ultimately be  viewed with embarrassment and shame.&#8221;</p>
<p>And the senior counterterrorism counsel and advocate  for <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/topics/politics/human-rights-watch.htm#r_src=ramp">Human  Rights Watch</a>, Andrea Prasow, chastised the president even before the act was  signed.</p>
<p>“I think the president really has to veto this bill  because codifying indefinite detention in the U.S., mandating military detention  for all terrorism suspects found inside the U.S., really sets the U.S. back  decades in terms of how we approach terrorism,” Prasow said.</p>
<p>The Center for Constitutional Rights, or CCR, said  the NDAA kills any prospect for relocating detainees and shuttering the <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/topics/politics/iraq/guantanamo.htm#r_src=ramp">Guantanamo</a>  camps because it requires the defense secretary to certify that the transferred  men will not commit hostile acts in the future.</p>
<p>In a statement, CCR said &#8220;the same presidential  signature that ordered the closing of Guantánamo almost three years ago, has now  ensured their release or transfer is practically impossible. &#8221;</p>
<p>On the detention of American citizens, <a href="http://www.lawfareblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/NDAA-Conference-Report-Detainee-Section.pdf"><strong>critics  say section 1021 of the act</strong></a> is overly broad because it does not rule out  indefinite detention and &#8220;&#8230;includes the authority for the Armed Forces of the <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/topics/u.s.htm#r_src=ramp">United  States</a> to detain covered persons.&#8221;</p>
<p>Section 1022, which makes military custody mandatory  for a subset of detainees, does make an exception for U.S. citizens and legal  permanent residents.</p>
<p>On New Year&#8217;s eve, in a 1,800-word signing  statement, the president seemed to emphasize the point, claiming: &#8220;my  administration will not authorize the indefinite military detention without  trial of American citizens.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama&#8217;s socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.�</p>
<p>The professor then said, &#8220;OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama&#8217;s plan&#8221;. All grades will be averaged and everyone will receive the same grade so no one will fail and no one will receive an A&#8230;. (substituting grades for dollars &#8211; something closer to home and more readily understood by all).</p>
<p>After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.�</p>
<p>The second test average was a D! No one was happy.�</p>
<p>When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.�</p>
<p>As the tests proceeded, the scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.�</p>
<p>To their great surprise, ALL FAILED and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because�when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great, but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.�<br />
It could not be any simpler than that. (Please pass this on)</p>
<p>�<br />
Remember, there IS a test coming up. The 2012 elections.</p>
<p>�<br />
These are possibly the 5 best sentences you&#8217;ll ever read and all applicable to this experiment:</p>
<p>1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.</p>
<p>2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.</p>
<p>3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.</p>
<p>4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!</p>
<p>5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.</p>
<p>Can you think of a reason for not sharing this? Neither could I.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Jewish Boycott &#8211; Brilliant</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>A short time ago, Iran&#8217;s Supreme Leader Grand Ayatollah Ali urged the Muslim World to boycott anything and everything that originates with the Jewish people.</p>
<p>In response, Meyer M. Treinkman, a pharmacist, out of the kindness of his heart, offered to assist them in their boycott as follows:</p>
<p>&#8220;Any Muslim who has Syphilis must not be cured by Salvarsan discovered by a Jew, Dr. Ehrlich. He should not even try to find out whether he has Syphilis, because the Wasserman Test is the discovery of a Jew. If a Muslim suspects that he has Gonorrhea, he must not seek diagnosis, because he will be using the method of a Jew named Neissner.</p>
<p>&#8220;A Muslim who has heart disease must not use Digitalis, a discovery by a Jew, Ludwig Traube.</p>
<p>Should he suffer with a toothache, he must not use Novocaine, a discovery of the Jews, Widal and Weil.</p>
<p>If a Muslim has Diabetes, he must not use Insulin, the result of research by Minkowsky, a Jew. If one has a headache, he must shun Pyramidon and Antypyrin, due to the Jews, Spiro and Ellege.</p>
<p>Muslims with convulsions must put up with them because it was a Jew, Oscar Leibreich, who proposed the use of Chloral Hydrate.</p>
<p>Arabs must do likewise with their psychic ailments because Freud, father of psychoanalysis, was a Jew.</p>
<p>Should a Muslim child get Diphtheria, he must refrain from the &#8220;Schick&#8221; reaction which was invented by the Jew, Bella Schick.</p>
<p>&#8220;Muslims should be ready to die in great numbers and must not permit treatment of ear and brain damage, work of Nobel Prize winner, Robert Baram.</p>
<p>They should continue to die or remain crippled by Infantile Paralysis because the discoverer of the anti-polio vaccine is a Jew, Jonas Salk.</p>
<p>&#8220;Muslims must refuse to use Streptomycin and continue to die of Tuberculosis because a Jew, Zalman Waxman, invented the wonder drug against this killing disease.</p>
<p>Muslim doctors must discard all discoveries and improvements by dermatologist Judas Sehn Benedict, or the lung specialist, Frawnkel, and of many other world renowned Jewish scientists and medical experts.</p>
<p>&#8220;In short, good and loyal Muslims properly and fittingly should remain afflicted<br />
with Syphilis, Gonorrhea, Heart Disease, Headaches, Typhus, Diabetes, Mental Disorders, Polio, Convulsions and Tuberculosis</p>
<p>and be proud to obey the Islamic boycott.&#8221;</p>
<p>Meanwhile I ask, what medical contributions to the world have the Muslims made.</p>
<p>Shalom, jerry golden</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>FDR: Great President Or Socialist Disaster?<br />
By <a href="http://americandaily.com/author/72">Warner Todd Huston</a>  (04/21/04)</p>
<div>A new, monumental biography of Franklin D. Roosevelt has been released penned by Conrad Black that once again lionizes the WWII president. Naturally it ignores his failures and over emphasizes his achievements. So, it is time to remind everyone of the things that <a id="KonaLink0" href="#"><span style="color: brown;">FDR</span></a> did that damaged this country so badly that we are still dealing with the results today.</p>
<p>It should be remembered that FDR is far from the &#8220;Greatest <a id="KonaLink1" href="#"><span style="color: brown;">American president</span></a>&#8220;. In fact it is difficult to claim him much of an American at all seeing as how he despised and worked to undermine nearly every institution that makes America America. Here are some of the facts:</p>
<p>Assault on capitalism</p>
<p>-The top tax rates were 91% on personal income and 95% on corporations1 this prolonged the Great Depression by decades and cynically confiscated the wealth of the working class and investment class alike.</p>
<p>- On April 7th, 1942, FDR declared that no one in America should be allowed to earn over $25,000 annually (equivalent to $260,000 in 2004 money).2 This was a typically socialist/communist inspired steal from the rich program. It also assured that the rich would not be able to invest in their businesses, save for the future, invest in the stock market or build homes much less spend on luxury items.</p>
<p>Social Security, just another vote pandering exercise</p>
<p>FDR admitted that the Social Security Act, which we are burdened with trying to &#8220;fix&#8221; now, was nothing but a vote pandering device. FDR said, &#8220;I guess you&#8217;re right on the economics, but those taxes were never a problem of economics. They were politics all the way through.&#8221; 3 This was a quote from FDR in reply to the fact that Social Security Payroll Taxes were a drag on the economy.</p>
<p>To illustrate the instability of this program the first person to get Social Security for the rest of her life was Ida fuller of Ludlow, Vermont. She garnered $20,000 in benefits but the amount she paid into the system before hand was $22 â€¦ TOTAL4.</p>
<p>Socialist &#8220;Work&#8221; Programs did NOT go to the poor</p>
<p>-The top 14 states that got WPA money were Western states NOT the states in the South that were poorest. Why? Because FDR needed western state votes and he already had the southern vote. 60% more New Deal money went to Western states than it did to Southerners. 5 So, the money of these New Deal Work programs never went to the Americans who needed it the most.</p>
<p>Blacks hardest hit</p>
<p>-FDR&#8217;s FLSA bill (Fair Labor and Standards Act- June 14th, 1938) put more than 40,000 African Americans out of work upon its passing6. And most of FDR&#8217;s other sweetheart deals for the various unions of the country similarly put blacks out of work because most of these unions worked exclusively to keep blacks out of their work force to support the white worker.</p>
<p><a id="KonaLink2" href="#"><span style="color: brown;">The New Deal</span></a> prolonged the Great Depression by decades</p>
<p>I can sum up the effects of FDR&#8217;s New Deal policies no better than Jim Powell â€¦.</p>
<p>&#8220;Regardless of the role of domestic versus international factors in ringing on the Great Depression, the New Deal did plenty to prolong high unemployment. New Deal policies were dubious when considered from the standpoint of their effects. After Americans had suffered through a catastrophic contraction for three years (1929-1933), FDR supported policies like the <a id="KonaLink3" href="#"><span style="color: brown;">National industrial Recovery Act</span></a> that promoted further contraction. His executive orders helped enforce higher consumer prices when millions of Americans were unemployed and needed bargains. FDR approved the destruction of food when people were hungry. FDR signed into law higher taxes for everybody, so consumers had less money to spend, and employers had less money with which to hire people-during the worst depression in American history. New Deal labor laws empowered the most racist unions to exclude blacks and had the effect of making it illegal for many employers to hire blacks. The power of the Federal Reserve became centralized, but this meant that the mistakes of a few people (members of the federal Reserve Board) were likely to harm millions across the United States; and indeed the Fed&#8217;s mistakes were a major cause of the depression of 1938 as well as the monetary contraction of 1929-1933. After having throttled competition with the <a id="KonaLink4" href="#"><span style="color: brown;">National Industrial Recovery</span></a> Act, Agricultural Adjustment Act, Bituminous Coal Conservation Act, Robinson-Patman Act, Retail Price Maintenance Act, Federal Communications Act, Civil Aeronautics Act, high corporate taxes, and other measures, new Dealers posed as defenders of competition and filed a record number of antitrust lawsuits against private employers, one effect of which was to further discourage investment needed for growth and jobs.&#8221; 7</p>
<p>And I am not even bringing up his fore knowledge of the attack on Pearl Harbor, his deportation and imprisonment of thousands of ethnic Americans and his mishandling of the Soviet issue. Suffice to say, his best achievement seems to be his ability to get people to continue voting for him despite his constant failures on the economy, the law, the war and his ignorance of <a id="KonaLink5" href="#"><span style="color: brown;">the Constitution</span></a> of the United States.</p>
