jdarnall@*************.com—Jan. 29, 2011—A new political slogan—One of the best lines I've heard came from a shop foreman at an old Buick plant in Flint, Michigan when a young black kid was being laid off. The black kid said to the shop foreman: "You're firing me because I'm black!" The boss replied: "No, we hired you because you were black. We're firing you because you are useless." Sounds like a possible slogan for the 2012 election.

(Editor's Note:) The Obama Administration, the NAACP, and the far left media treats every criticism of Obama's ineptness, his arrogance and his seemingly wanton destruction of the US economy and his mediocre performance in the international political arena as a form of racism.

The criticisms of Obama by the right are in no way based on the color of his skin but on his total lack of sound political judgment, and on the fact that Obama receives counsel from George Soros—whose interests are not our interests. The collapse of the economy of the United States benefits the social progressives who believe world government will rise from the ashes of the free enterprise system.

mary@*************.com—Jan. 23, 2011—On Wednesday, Dr. Oz had a show on the fastest growing thyroid cancer. It was a very interesting program and he mentioned that the increase could possibly be related to the use of dental x-rays and mammograms. He demonstrated that on the apron the dentist puts on you for dental xrays there is a little flap that can be lifted up and wrapped around your neck. Many dentists don't bother to use it. Also, there is something called a "thyroid guard"for use during mammograms. By coincidence, I had my yearly mammogram yesterday. I felt a little silly, but I asked about the guard, and sure enough, the technician had one in a drawer. I asked why it wasn't routinely used. Answer: "I don't know. You have to ask for it. Well, if I hadn't seen the show, how would I have known to ask? We need to pass this on t uughs is, oe al our female friends. Husbands: tell your wives. Now. forward this URL to your family and friends.

cal@*************.com—Jan. 17, 2012—Four Old Italian Ladies—These four older ladies who lived in Italy always sat together outside their church [on right]. They chatted about when they were young. A month ago they pooled their money and bought a laptop computer. Never having been out of Italy but having heard about Florida, they just happened to click on a link to St. Augustine, Florida and read all about the "Fountain of Youth" claimed by the Spaniards when they discovered Florida.

They collected all of the money they had left in the world and sent for four bottles of the water from the fountain.

As soon as the water arrived, they drank it "as directed." The rest of the story will make you a believer because here they are today [on left]..

We have a limited supply of this water available at an incredibly low price of just $1,499.95 a bottle. HURRY BEFORE THE INVENTORY RUNS OUT! Make checks payable to :

Democratic National Committee to Re-Elect Obama. (You can trust us. We would NEVER lie to you!)

(Editor's Note:) There's CHANGE you will see only from sniffing glue.

zollander@*************.com—Dec. 23, 2011—I respectfully disagree that ONLY Ron Paul gets it. Michelle Bachmann also gets it, but in a slightly different way...And then, there is this to consider—(Editor's response to Zollander email:) Actually, Ron Paul DOESN'T get it. Nor does Michelle Bachmann. Strangely, Newt Gingrich does. Gingrich understands there are 85 million Democrats, 55 million registered Republicans (revised number) and 28 million registered independents (revised number, inflated with the addition of about 6 million Tea Party advocates). Do you see the problem? The right cannot put anyone in the White House without several million votes from the left. How many leftwing votes will Ron Paul take? None. Zip. Ziltch. Zero. Zip. Nada. It is numerically impossible for Dr. Paul to get elected. How many leftwing votes can Bachmann take? None. Nada. Zip. Ziltch. Zero. It is numerically impossible for Congresswoman Bachmann to get elected. Gingrich is counting on the same "Rockefeller Republicans" and disillusioned union members who voted for John McCain in 2008.

McCain lost because there physically were not enough center-left/center/center-right votes to elect him. But then, McCain knew that before he agreed to be the designated loser in 2008. Gingrich, the designated loser for 2012, knows that as well. Gingrich can't get elected either since the only votes he will get are about 70% of those McCain-Palin won in 2008. (The McCain voters from 2008 will vote for Gingrich. The 2008 "Palin-voters" from 2008 [two identifiably separate voters] are Tea Party advocates. If a more honestly right-of-center conservative candidate does not win the GOP nomination, they will sit out the election and Obama will win in 2012.) Gingrich can't win. The math isn't there. Mitt Romney—who is not the liberal the Christian Right makes him out to be—will pull moderates and consrvatives who are center-right, center-left and centrist. He stands the best chance of pulling the moderate left (the Reagan Democrats) needed to drain the liberal swamp and take the White House out of the hands of the social progressives (i.e., communists) who are now close to collapsing the free enterprise system. Unless the United States seriously repents and restores this nation to its bedrock Christian principles, jettisoning the princes of industry's abrogation of the 1st Amendment's protection of religious freedom in what can only be described as "deal-cutting" with the Muslim world by granting Islam a franchise to create a global religion enforced by Shariah Law, we are watching the end of prosperity in the United States—and quite realistically, the Scriptural end of the world.

davis47@*************.com—Dec .9, 2011—Corzine: "I don't know where the money is. Spoken like a real Democrat. Democrats don't know where the money went, but insist that the public should still trust that they are the ones with the heart to borrow and spend endlessly for the publc benefit—unlike scroogie Republicans who still possess this annoying vestigal awareness of how "in the outside the Beltway Fantasy Island, real world, checkbooks, business budgets, and family budgets really work. My guess is that after spending years as a US Senator, and New Jersey Governor, Corzine may simply have had a hard time switching channels from the "What, Me Worry?—It's not my money" mentality. [Like all good social progressives, Corzine, like now deceased famous leftwing Democratic Senator Claude "Red" Pepper)—"Come and get your share. There's plenty more where this (money) came from."

ed.werner@*************.net—Dec. 2, 2011—Socialism and it's high taxes—coming to the United States? This is just another reason why we don't want to follow Europe—Ed. Interesting, huh? VAT is a "value-added tax" just so you understand the terminology. In other words, it's just a plain old sales tax.

Since the United States of America is electing leaders who are Socialists, and are allowing them to take us down the fast track to outright Socialism, it would be worth your while to see what other citizens living under Socialism pay in taxes. Yes, they get :free healthcare, but its the worst healthcare in the world.

Get ready. Unless you get involved and "elect differently" more than half of your day's pay will go to "the government." Yes—work until noon every day to pay for Socialist programs. Now that's freedom, right?

Here are the current tax rates in Europe. (Editor's note: Please remember, Europe is literally bankrupt. It was recently reported that Lloyds of London, Europe's largest insurance carrier, just made the decision to move all of its cash assets out of Europe's banks over the fear that the banks in Europe are going to crash in Europe's latest debt crisis. At the same time, England's Parliament is preparing the legislation to withdraw from the European Union. So, expect new tax hikes all over Europe. In the meantime.)

If you've started to wonder what the real costs of socialism are going to be—once the full program in these United States hits your wallet, take a look at the table (above). As you digest these mind-boggling figures, keep in mind that in spite of these astronomical tax rates, these countries are still not financing their social welfare programs exclusively from tax revenues. They are deeply mired in public debt of gargantuan proportions. Greece has reached a point where its debt is in imminent danger of defaulting. That is the reasons the European Union has intervened to bail them out. If you're following the financial news, you know Spain and Portugal are right behind Greece.

The United States is now headed right down the same path. The VAT tax in the table is the national sales tax that Europeans pay. Stay tuned because that is exactly what you can expect to see the Administration proposing after the fall elections (2012). The initial percentage in the United States isn't going to be anywhere near the outrageous numbers you now see in Europe. Guess what? The current outrageous numbers in Europe didn't start out as as outrageous, either. They started out as minuscule— right around 1%-2%—where they will start out in the United States.

(Editor's Footnote: When Congress debated the 16th Amendment in 1908-09, the same discussion came up—with the same fear expressed by several Congressmen and Senators that creating a right to levy a tax on incomes without including a ceiling on the amount that could be levied was too dangerous. The leadership scoffed at their "fear," and pointed out that if future legislators tried to raise the tax over 1% to 2%, they would be voted out of office. We know today that is not the case. Give a social progressive the legal right to tax you without limit and he will steal every penny you possess—and expect you to borrow on your good name to make sure your "less fortunate neighbors" have as many material things as you.)

jezrell@*************.com—Nov. 3, 2011—(Got this in my mail this morning) While hiking along the border this morning, I saw a Muslim extremist fall into the Rio Grande River. He was struggling to stay afloat because of all the guns and bombs he was carrying. Along with him was a Mexican who was also struggling to stay afloat because of the large backpack full of drugs that was strapped to his back. If they didn't get help, they'd surely drown! Being a responsible, law-abiding Texan, wanting to help those in distress, I informed the El Paso County Sheriff's Office and Homeland Security. Well, it's now 4 pm. Both have drowned, and neither authority responded to my plea for help. I'm starting to think I wasted two stamps.

jdarnall@*************.com—Nov. 1, 2011—There is finally conclusive evidence that Osama bin Laden and Muammar Gaddafi are dead. Yesterday, they both registered to vote in Chicago.

morningstar36@*************.com—Oct. 24, 2011—Oh, yeah...anti-semitism and/or political correctness is alive and well in the United States and around the sick world. Please note that Nivea company has removed Israel from the list of countries in the Mideast, and wrote instead: "Palestinian Terrorities." Dear friends, please remove Nivea from our shopping list. Pass this on to everyone you think may purchase Nivea Products.

(Editor's Note:) Nivea is a global skin care company owned by Beiersdorf, a German cosmetic company headquartered in Hamburg, Germany. BDF makes products for both men and women. While Beiersdorf is a German company, its US corporate headquarters is located in Wilton, Connecticut. BDF's primary production center is located in Norwalk, Connecticut. The company's distribution center is located in Cincinnati, Ohio. It's a transnational corporation which posted sales last year of €6.194 billion. The brand names under the BDF umbrella are: 8X4, Atrix, Aquaphor, Basis, Duo, Elastoplast, Eucerin, Florena, Hansaplast, Juvena, Labello (Liposan), La Prarie, Marlies Moller, Nivea, SBT (Skin Biology Therapy), and Slek. Beiersdorf is controlled by Tchibo Holding AG (a coffee conglomerate) which owns 50.49% of BDF. Tchibo is held by members of the Herz family which invests through Maxingvest AG, the Herz family investment vehicle. When you are updating your 401K next year, these are the names you want to look for.

morningstar36@*************.com—Sept. 30, 2011—Subject: Group Names. Finally an explanation. The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for various groups of animals. We are familiar with a herd of cows, a flock of chickens, a school of fish and a gaggle of geese. Less widely known is a pride of lions, a murder of crows, an exaltation of doves and, presumably because they look so wise, a parliament of owls. Now consider a group of baboons. They are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least intelligent of all primates. What is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons? Believe it or not—a Congress. I guess that pretty much explains the things that come out of Washington.

rick_beckrich@*******.com—Sept. 19. 2011—Senior Citizens are constantly being criticized for every conceivable deficiency of the modern world, real or imaginary. We know we take responsibility for all we have done and do not blame others. However, upon reflection, we would like to point out that it was NOT senior citizens who took:

And, we certainly are NOT the ones who eliminated patience and tolerance from personal relationships and interaction with others. And we do understand the meaning of patriotism, and remember those who fought and died for our country. Just as the seniors with years in their eyes and pride in their hearts as they stand at attention with their hands over their hearts. Yes, I'm a Senior Citizen. I'm the life of the party—even if it lasts until 8 p.m. I'm awake many hours before body allows me to get up. And, I'm smiling all the time because I can't hear a thing you are saying. Yes, I'm a Senior Citizen, and I think I'm having the time of my life.

Morningstar36@******.com—Sept. 3 , 2011—From now through November, 2012, this should be required weekly, or at least monthly, reading—by all who vote. Did you notice who Obama threatened when he wasn't getting his way on raising the debt ceiling? He threatened to NOT PAY: social security for retirees, military retirees, social security disability and federal retirees. He did NOT threaten to stop payments to illegal aliens. He did NOT threaten to take frivolous benefits such as Internet access away from violent prison inmates. He did NOT offer to fire some of the thousands of unnecessary federal employees that he hired. He did NOT offer to cut down on his or his wife's frivolous gallivanting at the expense of the taxpayers. He did NOT threaten to stop paying Senators or Representatives or their staffs. He did NOT threaten to take benefits away from welfare recipients. He did NOT threaten the Food Stamp Program. He did NOT threaten to cut back on anything that involves his core voters. Why are we allowing this person to destroy this wonderful country with his greed and his lies? His type of CHANGE is killing our country. He needs to be stopped. And only our votes for someone else CAN STOP HIM. Don't forget his socialist tactics when it's time to vote. Vote NO for Obama in 2012—The End of An Error. — Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote—Benjamin Franklin.

Grnjllybn@******.com—Aug. 27, 2011—BREAKING NEWS: The [Resident] has just confirmed that the DC earthquake occurred on a rare and obscure fault-line, apparently known as "Bush's Fault." The [Resident] also announced that the Secret Service and Maxine Waters continue an investigation of the quake's suspicious ties to the Tea Party. Conservatives, however, have proven that it was caused by the Founding Fathers rolling over in their graves.

ed.werner@******.com—Aug. 20, 2011—Note the "plan" in the lower left corner! This cartoon was in the Chicago Tribune. Remember the adage: "Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it." Milton Friedman once said, "If you put the government in charge of the Sahara Desert, in five years there'd be a shortage of sand." This (cartoon) has been around before. But you still hear some people question when it is said that now is much like the 1930s. Take a good look at this 1934 cartoon and tell me what's different. (Editor's Note: Once again my cyberfriend Ed Werner has found a scary warning from the past that we need to pay serious attention to, although as you watch what's happening in socialist Europe, you know it's pretty much too late.

I wonder how many people have seen this apocalyptic warning from 1934 over the last 77 years, snickered at it and dismissed the ominous truth of the message as a joke. When communism "died" in the Reagan Years, cartoons like this were relegated to the old newsprint dumpsters because, the mainstream communist media told us, they were no longer relevant—no longer politically correct. Only, communism did not die. In fact, the Soviet Union, which is poised today to "repossess" its captive States, is still the Soviet Union in the heart of the Kremlin. Today's Soviet communists are everywhere. In many of the central European governments, in England, France, Germany, the Netherlands; in Iran, Iraq, Egypt, Syria, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Canada, South America and, yes, in the United States. Close to one third of the Congressmen and Senators in Washington, DC are communists—including most of the Congressional Black Caucus. Only you call them Environmentalists or Progressives. If you follow my website beyond a cursory glance every now and then, you know that I call them "watermelons" because they are environmentally green on the outside and communist red on the inside. (While some communists do not pose as environmentalists, and some environmentalists are not communists, communism as a whole has been hiding in the watermelon patch since it went underground during the Reagan-Bush-41 years.)

How can you identity the watermelons? The best clue is look at this cartoon and compare it to how the members of Congress spend your money today. When they spend like this 1934 cartoon— or they spend like they are still FDR New Deal Democrats, or they spend like Lyndon Johnson's Great Society Democrats who created the generational welfare system to control the votes of the welfare class, or they spend the money you no longer possess because Bill and Hillary Clinton sent all of our factories and all of your jobs to the third world; or they spend like Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi [D-CA] and Harry Reid [D-NV] who believe that even though you no longer have a job, a retirement savings account, or the assurances that your children and grandchildren will find a job in America you need to dig alittle deeper because giving is good for the green-on-the-outside, red-on-the-inside soul—you can bet they're communists...even when they tell you its politically incorrect to call them that as they hem-and-haw about what they really are.

The bankers who "bought" Congress and bribed a majority of the State legislators between 1909 and 1913 to orchestrate the 16th and 17th Amendments, committed a fraud on the American people. As the privately-owned Federal Reserve System was foisted on the American people on Dec. 23, 1913, a Christmas present from the 63rd Congress which, like the 62nd Congress were the two most corrupt Congresses in the history of the United States because they, collectively, killed the American Republic with the illegal ratification and certification of the 17th Amendment. That act removed the States from the equation of national governance. The power of the States was arbitrarily surrendered to the federal bureaucracy since the Senate no longer took their orders from the States. The separation of power was reduced by a factor of 48.

On the eve of the enactment of the Federal Reserve Act, Henry Ford, founder of the Ford Motor Company said: "It is well enough that [the] people of [this] nation do not understand our banking and monetary system. For if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning." If Ford was still alive today, watching the communist theft of what is left of the wealth of America, he would be screaming from the rooftop: "It's your money, and money that rightly belongs to your parents, grandparents, children and grandchildren which they have stolen and are still stealing. What is wrong with you? Where's your patriotic pride and national spirit? Put down the TV remote control and march on Washington! There's a whole parcel of politicians, lobbyists, industrialists, bankers, businessmen and federal judges who need to be in prison. Don't sit around waiting for someone else to do it because you're busy watching major league baseball or pre-season football."

susyb @******.com—July 29, 2011—Such is exactly what the Blount County TN Commission attempted to pull over on our citizens. They planned to pass an ordinance requiring a Permit for an individual or group to protest an issue. Of course, there would likely eventually be a FEE involved. They wanted a notice so that they could decide if they would grant such permission, and so they could have adequate law enforcement on hand to deal with any unruly protesters.

I wrote ALL of the Commissioners and told them what they were proposing was unconstitutional. It is a violation of our Right of Freedom of Speech and the Right to Redress. We don't always know long enough in advance what these so called "public Servants" are going to do to us next, in order to have the necessary time to go through a permit process for approval.

At any rate, they backed off of it for now. Keep up the good work for alerting America regarding such egregious abuses of power.

May we all be blessed with wisdom and Holy Spirit discernment of the only true and Living Almighty GOD of the Holy Bible as we face the challenges of coming days. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, my Lord. AMEN.

Editor's Note: When citizens, who are no longer taught about their Constitution in America's schools, see their city or county commissions enact ordinances, they assume those ordinances are within the framework of law. Unless those who know the law object, they grit their teeth and tolerate the intrusions to their constitutional rights.

valleypoet @******.com—June 27, 2011—Holding a grudge?—Remember this when you decide to hold a grudge. The only person it hurts is you. Grudges have a way of souring your stomach—and your disposition. Think about that the next time you get mad at someone...especially a loved one. A grudge is something you carry alone and the only person it affects is you.

ddlk22 @******.com—June 26, 2011—Warning: Beware of Terrorist Groups Infiltating Churches. Latest news reports are that five terrorist cell groups have been operating in many of our churches. They have been identified as Bin Sleepin, Bin Arguin, Bin Fightin, Bin Complainin and Bin Missin. Their leader, Lucifer Bin Workin, trained these groups to destroy the Body of Christ. The plan is to come into the church disguised as Christians and to work within the church to discourage, disrupt and destroy. However, there have been reports of a sixth group. It is a tiny cell known by the name Bin Prayin. It is actually the most effective counter terrorism force in the church. Unlike the terrorist cell groups, the Bin Prayin group does not blend in with whatever and whomever disruptive faction that comes along. Bin Prayin does what it needs to do to uplift and encourage the Body of Christ. We have noticed the Bin Prayin cell group has different characteristics than the others. You can spot them if you've Bin Lookin and Bin Goin.

igniting@******.com—June 12, 2011—Damn good article. You went to the root of the problem which is what always seems to be missing. We all see the symptoms fairly easily but are more often than not unable to diagnose the cause. Hence there is never a cure. Until we learn to look deep into the issue, we will just keep putting bandaids on a massive hemorrhage. We have now lost so much blood that there is little hope left except as always, with God. (The article? Dept. of Education S.W.A.T. Team Breaks Down Door)

dr.doo46 @******.com—May 25, 2011—Mr. Ryter: you sure hit the nail on the head. I totally enjoyed the article. I'll definitely pass it to all. I'd even send it via snail mail to every news outlet in the country...and also pass printed copies to anyone who would listen. Hopefully someone will someday wake up. But seeing s how we don't have the government our country's founders began, it is almost too late. Our country isn't the America they wanted for their themselves and future generations. We are now run by the United States of America Corporation for PROFIT. The New World Order is coming quickly. When I was in my "first stage of kid," I never thought it would be like this. Now, I'm in my "third stage of kid," 65, I'm very distraught over what I see. The regressive progressives, the ecowackos as you called them, or environmentalist wackos as others call them, have become so strong its a shame. Many are moving out of this country...Thanks again for the great article. You are one of my favorite writers.

mountain.storage @******.com—May 22, 2011—I have no idea if this actually works, but it was interesting reading and, of course, easy enough to try it next time you get burned.

Editor's Note: Because of the disclaimer from the sender, I decided to Google this before using the material. Both Snopes and Urban Legends claims the story is FALSE. Both are wrong. Their assertions are based on the fact that both the Mayo Clinic and the American Red Cross advise burn victims to treat minor (first or second degree burns) by immersing them in cool water, then covering the burn with a loose, gauze bandage. If Snopes and Urban Legends had done their due diligence they would have realized that covering minor burns with common wheat flour was, in fact, the common protocol for treating burns for about one hundreds-fifty years. The treatment is found in Practical Medicine & Surgery (1848), The American Agriculturist (1854), The Medical & Surgical Reporter (1867), The International Encyclopedia of Surgery (1888) and again in the Manual of Surgical Treatment (1899). If the treatment worked for 100 years—and prevents the skin from blistering, why would anyone want to dowse a burn with cold water and wrap it in gauze?

The email said: Impressive! Why did we never hear of this before? I've always just run it under the cold water tap. A woman's experience with burns...Some time ago I was cooking some corn and stuck my fork in the boiling water to see if the corn was ready. I missed (the corn) and my hand went into the boiling water. A friend of mine, who was a Vietnam vet, came into the house just as I was screaming, and asked me if I had some plain old flour. I pulled out a bag and he stuck my hand in it. He told me to keep my hand in the flour for 10 minutes, which I did. He said that in Vietnam there was a guy on fire, and in their panic to put out the fire, they threw a bag of flour all over him to put the fire out. Well, it not only put the fire out, he never even had a blister. Long story short, I put my hand in the bag of flour for 10 minutes, pulled it out and did not even have a red mark or a blister—and absolutely no pain. Now I keep a bag of flour in the fridge and every time I burn myself. Cold flour feels even better than room temperature flour. I use the flour and have never ONCE had even a red spot/burn mark or blister. I even burnt my tongue once, put the flour on it for about 10 minutes. The pain was gone and no burn.

Editor's Note: While I don't for a minute believe the email happened as described, the burn cure is real. For over 100 years it was the treatment of record for burns. The email was dressing to sell a remedy used for over 100 years before modern science decided that burns needed to be treated by a physician and not the burn victim.

FS SANCHEZ @******.com—Feb. 25, 2011—YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED—This morning a coalition of Muslim leaders warned the United States that if military action against Muslim countries continues, they intend to cut off America's supply of 7-Eleven, Motel 6 and Subway managers. If this action does not yield sufficient results, cab drivers will be next, followed by Dell, AT&T and AOL customer service reps. Finally, if all else fails, they have threatened not to send us any more presidents, either. It's gonna get ugly, people. You have been warned!

ED WERNER@******.com—Feb. 13, 2011—From the looks of this ship, if Walmart goes down, so will America! And, they wonder where the jobs went. The Emma Maersk, part of the Danish shipping line, is shown in the photo below. (Editor's Note: where this email contained several shots of this gigantic freighter that cuts across the Pacific in just 5 days, I chose to show only two photos—one to show the sheer size of this monster ship, and one showing 15,000 cargo containers on its deck because the story should not be about the Danish ship, big as it is, but the storage containers because they affect you.) .

The Maersk Line was commissioned by Walmart to get all their goods and stuff from China. These monster ships hold an incredible 15,000 containers and have a 207 foot deck beam. With a 207' beam, it's too big to fit through the Panama or Suez Canals. It is strictly transpacific. The goods arrive 4 days before the typical container ship on a China to California run. 91% of Walmart products are made in China. The ship was built in five sections. The sections were floated together and then welded. The command bridge is higher than a 10-story building and has 11 cargo crane rigs that can operate simultaneously to offload the entire ship in less than two hours. A recent documentary in late March, 2010 on the History Channel noted that all of these containers are shipped back to China EMPTY. Yep. That's right. We send nothing back on these ships. What does that tell you about the current financial state of this country? Just keep buying those imported goods (mostly gadgets) until you run out of money. Then you may wonder what the cause of unemployment (maybe even your job) might be? 'Nuff said? (Editor's Note: Not quite. As you look at the containers on the deck of the Maersk Line ship, you can see there are a lot of them. But the eye is deceived because you can't see all 15,000 containers—nor do you realize that each of these containers is a the equivalent of a tractor-trailer full of goods. Many of them will transit at least part of their journey to a Walmart, K-Mart, Target, Marshall's or TJMaxx Store near you by tractor trailer. Most will journey most of the way by train (also subsidized by you).

Some of the better looking baubles will find their way into the shelves and display cases your local Macy's, Neiman Marcus or Kohl's Department Store where bargain hungry shoppers won't even look at the country of origin of the products and realize that someone in China made the wrist watch, or the shoes or sweater that Aunt Mary or Uncle Harry used to make in Elmira, New York or Atlanta, Georgia.

Walmart used to pride itself on selling only goods "Made In America." But, that was during Walmart founder Sam Walton's youngr days. Walton wanted to "improve" his company by copying the unique successes of small, regional retailers who were attempting to compete with the new concept stores being launched by S.S. Kresge and F.W. Woolworth (K-mart and Woolco). After spending time with Heck's Discount Stores founder Fred Haddad in Charleston, WV, in 1961 to see how Haddad's fledgling discount empire was succeeding in the Mountain State, Walton opened his first Walmart in Rogers, Arkansas. Using the best ideas developed by other newcomers to the discount store arena, Walmart decided to sell only goods made in America. When you stepped into the checkout lane of your local Walmart, you could not help seeing a wall painting over the doors that said: "Made In America." The sign, discarded in 1992, suggested that everything you bought at Walmart was American made when, even in the early 90s, the percentage of foreign-made to American-made goods was very high. If the American consumer does not get real savvy real fast and stop buying goods made outside of the United States, there are going to be a lot less jobs available in this country next year and the year after. With less workers working, those fewer workers are going to be paying a lot more taxes to keep the "ship of state" from foundering. As long as Americans are willing to trade their future for slave labor goods, they will have no future except as a slave to the economic system they helped create by condoning the theft of America's livelihood by participating in the scheme to redistribute the wealth of the industrialized nations to the human capital-rich third world nations who possess nothing and need everything—especially a job...YOUR JOB.

ED WERNER@******.com—Feb. 4, 2011—Here's a sample for your next neighborhood project. The more signs you make the better the discount. The forwarded email Ed received said: "Ralph, my neighbor is a 'lefty' of sorts (Obama bumper stickers, gung-ho on socialized medicine, 'guns should be banned,' etc.) So, last week I put this sign up in my yard after one of his antigun rants at a neighborhood cocktail party.

The sign wasn't up an hour before he called the police and wanted them to make me take down the sign. The officer politely informed him that it was not their job to take such action without a court order. And, that he had to file a complaint downtown first, which would then be reviewed by the city attorney to see if it violated any city, county, or State ordinances If there was a violation; a court order would be send to the offending party (me) to '...remove the sign within seven days.' After several weeks, he was informed that the sign was legal (by a quarter-of-an-inch) and there was nothing the city could do, which obviously made him madder. I tried to smooth things over by inviting him to go shooting with me and my friends at the Hunt Club, but that seemed to make him even more angry. I then asked him if he wanted to go to a Tea Party rally but, again, he declined my outreach efforts to bring about a better understanding between political and social opponents. I am at a loss how to reconcile our long relationship (notice I did not say friendship), any suggestions would be welcome. Anyway, that's life in our neck of the woods. How about yours?" (Editor's Note: Of course we know that Ed's email is a spoof. But, it does brighten your mood a bit, doesn't it?)

molehill@******.com—Dec. 13, 2010—The credit for this quote is attributed to an unidentified Czech citizen. Whether it "is or is not" is not as important as the truth in what was said by whomever said it.—Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way you can understand them. This quote came from the Czech Republic. Someone over there has figured it out. We have a lot of work to do.

"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."

Editor's Note: First, as the author of this website, I have reported several times over the last two years, it appears the American people did not elect the "prince of fools." I reported this for the first time in a 2¢ Worth article on Nov. 28, 2009. According to a FEC report posted on the White House website on that date, there were 96,992,000 actual votes cast by registered voters who voted. However, when you did a "hand count" to compute the total votes received by all of the candidates running in 2008, you discover an unexplained anomaly: there were 132,618,580 ballots in the ballot boxes across the United States. Regardless how they got there, when you do the simple math, there were 35,626,580 more votes counted than cast. Now the left can claim they were John McCain votes, but the reality is, no one would steal votes for McCain since no one on either side wanted him. But we know ACORN got caught in several States paying people to cast multiple absentee ballots for Obama (allegations they deny). Thus, based on allegations of vote fraud made against Obama, and naming ACORN, by the Clinton Campaign, it is logical to attribute the ballot "overages" to the Left. So, subtracting the 35,626,580 votes from the 69,456,897 votes counted for Obama, we can conclude that the "prince of fools" only received about 33,830,317 legitimate votes. Since the number of social progressives in the United States total 31,820,000, that's about right.

Social progressives, who controlled both the House and Senate in 1971, proposed lowering the voting age to 18. Their argument was that if you were old enough to die for your country you should be old enough to vote for its leaders. Sounds laudable. They conceived the 26th Amendment resolution on March 23, 1971. Short pregnancy. It cleared the States in 100 days and was ratified on July 1, 1971.

In reality, the social progressives, who had controlled America's schools since the New Deal, needed the newly-brainwashed generation casting votes in 1972 to dump Richard Nixon and end the war in Vietnam. Minds fertilized by the seeds of socialism, ripening in the antiwar years—have now spawned three generations of fools.

To restore integrity to the voting process the People need to do three things. First, they need to not only repeal the 26th Amendment, they need to consider raising the voting age to 25 or 30. People who can name every pop culture icon or sports figure in the United States but can't tell you the name of the mayor of their town or city should not be voting for anything more significant than the new American Idol star, or the People's Choice Award.

Second, we need to repeal the Motor Voter Act (The National Voter Registration Act) which was enacted by the Democratically-controlled Clinton Congress in 1994 specifically to allow vote fraud through registering voters and having them cast absentee ballots at the same time they registered since those votes are neither checked nor challenged.

And, third, we need to enact a law with serious teeth that makes vote theft a first class felony punishable by a mandatory 10-year prison sentence per fraudulent vote cast, with sentences served consecutively. The law must also mandate that the prosecutor cannot mitigate the offense and charge a vote thief with one fraudulent vote when that individual cast 60 or more fraudulent votes. Once imprisoned, the malefactor must be required to serve every single day of his or her sentence with no time off for good behavior. Vote theft must be viewed as one of the most serious crimes in America because those who commit this crime are stealing our right to an honest election.

nancybp****@******.com—Dec. 1, 2010—Many years ago during a stressful time in my life, I began consuming large amounts of diet sodas. I developed a set of "mysterious" and very serious symptoms—temporary paralysis, aphasia, extreme photosensitivity and chronic weakness. {Perhaps there is a connection here with some cases of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.) "Complicated Migraine" was the final diagnosis after ruling out multiple sclerosis. A few months later while seeking alternative treatment to routine pharmaceuticals, a chiropractor mentioned that his sister-in-law had similar symptoms and his wife told her to stop drinking so much diet Coke. Bingo—that was my answer. I stopped drinking the soda and slowly got better. A few months later I tried drinking a little [diet soda] and immediately experienced weakness in my legs and arms. Being stubborn, I repeated this experiment a few more times—each time with the same results. But no more, and now I am well.

Interestingly, I've shared my experience over the years with a few people who suffered from severe headaches and/or some other neurological symptoms. Most of them don't want to give up their diet sodas. Well, I guess they're stubborn, too. Hopefully, someday they will come around.

I'm a maternity nurse—done this for many years. All newborns are routinely tested 24 hours after their first feed for PKU. Their blood is sent to the State lab and positive results reported to their pediatricians. I believe this is practiced in all 50 States (or 57—sorry, couldn't resist that!) Many doctors and midwives still recommend the use of of aspartame for pregnant women with diabetes. What does this mean for the babies who have PKU? Very good article—thank you.

mountain_storage@******.com—Oct. 3, 2010—Quote of the day: Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she will give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of sh*t.

itmaiden@******.com—Sept. 20, 2010—I received this email today regarding Today's New International Version [TNIV] by Zondervan Press (publisher) and a video (not attached to email but found on YouTube) with a Robert Bell (who pastors a church named Mars Hills in Grand Rapids, Michigan which he calls "the epicenter of [social] progressive culture") endorsing TNIV, and using it solely in his (Laodicean) church where there are 3 services that seat 4,000 people each, who [are handed] the TNIV to use in his service. The video was disturbing.

Take a look at this link from bibleresearchers.com that talks about some of the changes found in the TNIV.

A joint statement, signed by 110 ministry leaders and issued on May 28, 2002, refuted the TNIV. Their concern was that the TNIV, riding on the reputation of the NIV, may vie for a place as the church's commonly accepted Bible. The group said "...we believe that any commonly accepted Bible ...should be more faithful to the language of the original." (Editor's Note: Click on this link to see some of the changes made in the TNIV.) The harbingers of Laodicean political correctness need to heed the words of Jesus Christ through His scribe, the beloved Apostle John in Rev. 22:18-19. The words in these two verses apply equally to the editors of all gender-neutral "bibles" and to those who preach a perverted gospel from their pages. Those who have found societal harmony in the social church need to understand they have a scapegoat for a pastor who is leading his flock of sheep to the slaughter.

Forwarded by JezRell@******.com—Sept. 4, 2010—(Editor's Note: In March, 2009 Barack Hussein Obama, who wanted to retard enlistments in the military, proposed that since servicemen volunteer to serve in America's all-volunteer army they should be willing to pay for their own war injuries since they know the risk when they join.) Veterans' Affairs Secretary Gen. Eric Shinseki confirmed on Tues., March 19, 2009 that the Obama Administration was considering a radical plan to force servicemen to purchase private insurance to cover the likelihood of their being shot or maimed by a roadside bomb. The Democrats must be held accountable for the stupidity of the man in the White House that they protect. Remember the statement below, and the social progressives in the House and Senate who protect him on Nov. 2. Pass this around to all of your friends until election day.) This has to be the most outrageous statement ever made by a public official...and this guy is our Commander-in-Chief...Here is his response when he (was forced to) back off from his decision to require the military pay for their war injuries...Obama admitted that he was puzzled by the magnitude of the opposition to his proposal. "Look, it's an all volunteer force," Obama complained. "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn't compute...I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country. I wasn't asking for blood, just money. With the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I'd have thought the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nation's deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my fellow Americans." (Editor's Note: This is one sick anti-American Marxist dude. Surprisingly, it was a social progressive Senator, Patty Murray [D-WA] who told Obama that the legislation he wanted to force GIs to insure themselves would be "dead on arrival" should Obama push his initiative.)

EdithMichael@******.com—Aug. 28, 2010—From the London Daily Telegraph Editor on Foreign Relations, Alex Singleton. Quote: "Let me be clear: I'm not normally in favour of boycotts, and I love the American people. I holiday in their country regularly, and hate the tedious snobby sneers against the United States. But the American people chose to elect an idiot who seems hell bent on insulting their allies, and something must be done to to stop Obama's reckless foreign policy before he 'does the dirty' on his allies on every issue." One of the most poorly kept secrets in Washington is (...) Obama's animosity towards Great Britain, presumably because of what he regards as its sins while ruling Kenya (1895-1963).

One of Barack Obama's first acts as president was to return to Britain a bust of Winston Churchill that had graced the Oval Office since 9/11. He followed this up by denying Prime Minister Gordon Brown, on his first State visit, the usual joint press conference with flags. (Obama) was "too tired" to grant the leader of America's closest ally a proper welcome, his aides told British journalists...The administration went beyond snubs and slights when Secretary of State Hillary Clinton endorsed the demand of Argentine President Cristina Kirchner, a Hugo Chavez ally, for mediation of Argentina's specious claim to the Falkland Islands, a British dependency since 1833...In 1982, an earlier Argentine dictator tried to seize the Falklands by force. The British—with strong support from President Ronald Reagan—expelled them. "It's truly shocking that Barack Obama has decided to disregard our shared history," wrote Telegraph columnist Toby Young. "Does Britain's friendship really mean so little to him?" One could ask, does the friendship of anyone in the entire world mean anything to him?...For the first time in a long time the (occupant of the White House) is actually distrusted by its allies and not in the least feared by its adversaries. Nor is Mr. Obama now respected by the majority of Americans.

elad21@******.com—Aug. 20, 2010—This is incredible. Reported in The Hill: Democrats Vote Down 5 Percent Rule. In a bid to stem taxpayer losses for bad loans guaranteed by federal housing agencies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, Senator Bob Corker [R-TN] proposed that borrowers be required to make a 5% down payment in order to qualify. His proposal was rejected 57-42 on a party-line vote because, as Senator Chris Dodd [D-CT] explained, "...passage of such a requirement would restrict home ownership to only those who can afford it."

NOTE FROM SITE EDITOR: During the early-1990s, community activist and Illinois State Senator Barack Hussein Obama and the US Congressional Black Caucus spiked the Great American Dream by using the racist tactics employed by civil rights activist Jesse Jackson to force community banks to finance mortgages at higher interest rates for minorities with histories of not paying their debts. Adding economic injury to the Obama advocacy, the Clinton Administration pushed to amend the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 (Public Law 95-128, Title VIII, 91 Stat 1147, 12 USC § 2901) to outlaw the practice of "redlining" minority applicants with poor payment histories. Banks that did would face civil and possibly criminal penalties for rejecting minority home mortgage applicants. It is important for voters to understand that the subprime mortgage collapse that Bush-43 tried to solve with the $800 million subprime mortgage bailout bill was not caused by Bush, but by then State Senator Barack Obama and the Congressional Black Caucus. Had the money allocated by the Bush -43 subprime bailout legislation been used by the Federal Reserve as it was supposed to have been used—by the Resolution Trust Company to buy up foreclosed mortgages and get them out of the banks' inventories and free up money to continue loaning to consumer—there would have been no financial crisis and the need for $1.7 trillion in new debt that will cost the children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the nation's current taxpayers $71 trillion in compound interest to repay to the private bankers at the Federal Reserve over the next 50 to 100 years. The crisis was needed to conceal what the Fed bankers were actually doing—raiding the wealth of the American working class not to bail out banks in the United States, but to bail out the cash-strapped banks in the emerging nations where America's jobs have been going since 1994 and where the US mega banks were loaning your deposits. If the banks in the emerging countries collapsed, it would have created a global monetary collapse, toppling the economies of every nation on Earth except those in the Muslim world, China and the former Soviet Union.

rick_beck****l@******.com—Aug. 17, 2010—Check this out. I...was in Lowes the other day. I was looking at the hose attachments. They were all made in China. The next day I was in Ace Hardware. Just for the heck of it, I checked the hose attachments there. They were made in the USA. Start looking. In our current economic situation, every little thing we buy or do affects someone else—even their job. My grandson like Hershey candy (which used to be made in Hershey, Pennsylvania). I noticed, though, that it's marked "made in Mexico" now. I don't buy it anymore. My favorite toothpaste, Colgate, is made in Mexico. Now, I've switched to Crest. This past weekend I was Kroger. I needed 60W light bulbs and Bounce dryer sheets. I was in the light bulb aisle, and right next to the GE light bulbs I normally buy was an off-brand light bulb labeled "Everyday Value." I picked up both types of bulbs and compared the stats. They were the same except for the price. The GE bulbs were more expensive than the Everyday Value brand. But the thing that surprised me the most was the fact that the GE brand was made in Mexico and the Everyday Value brand was made in—get ready for this—the United States, at a company in Cleveland, Ohio. So throw out the myth that you can't find products you use every day that were made right here.

So, on to the next aisle—Bounce Dryer Sheets. Yep. You guessed it. Bounce cost more money than the private label brand and it is made in Canada. The Everyday Value brand was less money and it was made in the USA. I did laundry yesterday and the dryer sheets performed just like the Bounce Free I have been using for years. And the private label sheets were almost half the price.

My challenge to you is to start reading the labels when you shop for everyday things and see what you can find that is made in the USA. The job you save may be your own...or, you neighbor's. Let's get with the program! Stop buying from overseas companies! Help our fellow Americans keep their jobs—and create more jobs here in the United States. I passed this one...will you?

thull@******.com—July 16, 2010—(This email is making the rounds. Keep it going. It's important.) STROKE: Remember the first three letters: S.T.R. My nurse sent this and encouraged me to post it and spread the word. I agree. If everyone can remember something this simple, we could save some folks. Seriously...

STROKE IDENTIFICATION: During a BBQ, a friend stumbled and took a little fall. She assured everyone that was fine (they offered to call paramedics). She said she had just tripped over a brick because of her new shoes. They got her cleaned up and got her a new plate of food.

While she appeared a bit shaken up, Ingrid went about enjoying herself the rest of the evening. Ingrid's husband called later telling everyone that his wife had been taken to the hospital. At 6:00 p.m. Ingrid passed away. She had suffered a stroke at the BBQ.

Had they known how to identify the signs of a stroke, perhaps Ingrid would be with us today. Some don't die. It only takes a minute to read this. A neurologist says that if he can get to a stroke victim within 3 hours, he can totally revere the effects of a stroke—totally. He said the trick was getting a stroke recognized, diagnosed, and getting the patient medical care within 3 hours—which is tough.

RECOGNIZING A STROKE. Thank God for the sense to remember the "3" steps: STR. Read and learn. Sometimes symptoms of a stroke are difficult to identify. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness spells disaster. The stroke victim may suffer severe brain damage when people nearby fail to recognize the symptoms of a stroke. Doctors say any bystander can recognize a stroke by asking three simple questions: S*Ask the affected person to SMILE. T*Ask the affected person to TALK and speak a simple sentence coherently (i.e., "It is sunny out today.") And, finally, R*Ask him or her to RAISE BOTH ARMS If the affected person has trouble with any one of these tasks, call an emergency medical number immediately and describe the symptoms to the dispatcher. NEW SIGN OF A STROKE: Ask the affected person to stick out their tongue. If it protrudes crookedly, or it goes from one side to the other, this is indicative of a stroke. (Note: The odds are if readers of this alert use this procedure on ten people experiencing the symptoms described, they will save the life of at least one of the ten—and the one you save will more likely than not be someone you love.)

p********n@******.com—July 7,5 2010—Sir: I am not an organ donor and never have been. A visiting nurse recently told me of his experience of being present at the scene of an auto accident. Three people needed help badly. The EMT said: "Deal with those two. The other one is an organ donor." This nurse was so shocked he went to the DMV the next day and removed being an organ donor from his driver's license.

FishnBearCottage@******.com—June 25, 2010—I sent out your article on oil but haven't read all of it yet. Our anniversary today. So, if you mentioned this (in the article), just delete. "'According to the Federal District Court Judge who reversed the White House ban. While this judge's decision does not use the word 'lie,' it says the White House was misleading...' The decision goes on to say, 'Although the experts agree with the safety recommendations contained in the body of the main report, five of the National Academy experts and three of the other experts have publicly stated that they '..do NOT agree with the six month blanket moratorium" on floating drilling. They envisioned a more limited kind of moratorium, but a blanket moratorium was added after their final review.'" Editor's note: US District Court Judge Martin Feldman of the US District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana (a Ronald Reagan appointee) vacated Obama's Executive Order that mandated a moratorium on drilling by all 33 American-flagged drilling platforms in the Gulf of Mexico. (The moratorium affected platforms operated by BP, Chevron and Royal Dutch Shell.) Obama, working with environmentalists, issued the moratorium. Obama has appealed Feldman's decision to the 5th US Circuit Court of Appeals. Here are the legal realities of Obama's action: [1] Executive Orders, issued by any President are not binding on any person or organization not employed by the Executive Branch of the government. President's possess no legislative or judicial power. (That's part of the very deliberately-crafted separation of powers between the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of government. Which is precisely why courts cannot constitutionally combine various, unrelated court decisions—and many times the personal views of the Founding Fathers found in their personal correspondences with their friends [like the personal view of Thomas Jefferson that was twisted out of context to create the "separation of church and state."]) When Obama issued his moratorium against drilling the Gulf, he actually made a judicial ruling that only a federal judge has the authority to make. [2] The White House's making knowingly false statements in an Executive Order is not perjury since it is the "opinion" of the official in the Oval Office. However, if that document is used in a court pleading, it becomes a defacto affidavit, and thus a sworn statement to the court. Knowingly presenting false information as evidence in a federal court can and usually is construed as willful perjury or obstruction of justice. Both, I believe, are impeachable offenses. [3] When Bill Clinton was still in the White House, he issued an Executive Order banning all smoking in all federal office buildings nationwide. Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole [R-KS] sent Clinton a curt reply advising Clinton that Executive Orders are nothing more than "interoffice memos" from the boss of the Executive Branch to his employees in the Executive Branch, and that those EOs have no authority outside of his "branch" of the government. Dole reminded Clinton that only the Legislative Branch of government has the constitutional authority to "write law," and only the Judicial Branch has the constitutional authority to adjudicate the laws written by the Legislative Branch. While Dole didn't voice it, his words implied Clinton's job was to make sure the paperwork was filed, the floors were swept and someone turned out the lights when the real workers went home in the evening. Clinton never argued the point.

Sharonhilt@******.com—June 5 2010—Remember...cell phones go public this month. What that means is that all cell phone numbers are being released to telemarketing companies. You will start receiving telemarketing calls from hucksters selling everything from widgets to whatnots. AND YOU WILL BE CHANGED FOR THESE CALLS. To prevent this, call the following number from YOUR CELL PHONE: 888-382-1222. (This is the DO NOT CALL NATIONAL REGISTRY. (NOTE FROM EDITOR. When this registry was first started, I registered every phone in the house, three cell phones and even my fax. I also registered my high speed Internet line so I could threaten spammers I was able to identify. What makes fax spamming more irritating than phone spammers is that fax spammers use up your toner or ink jet cartridges. When I used to leave my fax on 24-7, I would get anywhere from 6 to a dozen spam faxes a week. While the number to call to buy whatever the spammer was hawking—from weekend cruises to life, health or disability insurance—the phone number you had to call to "opt out" of more faxes was always one of three numbers. When you dialed the number, the recording assured you that you had been removed per the "Do Not Call" law. That lasted about three weeks. Then the same other fax ads showed up. Because I could not find a "Do Not Call" mail address, I sent the collection of faxes to the Federal Trade Commission which oversees the "Do Not Call List." Since doing that, I've received one spam fax.) Help others with cell phones whose phones will be charged with the minutes the spammers consume trying to sell the phone's owners things they don't want. It's no longer like the days when a telemarketer calls you and you tell him you're interested, but for him to wait while you turn down the TV—and then you go and sit down and watch the program his call so rudely interrupted.

cal@******.com—May 15 2010—The car thieves peer through the windshield of your car or truck, write down the VIN # from the plate on the dashboard, go to the local car dealership and request a duplicate key based on the VIN #. I didn't believe this email, so I called Chrysler-Dodge and pretended I lost my keys. They told me to bring in the VIN #, and they would cut me one on the spot....The car dealer's parts department will make a duplicate key from the VIN # and collect payment from the thief who will return to your car. He doesn't have to break into your car, do any damage to the vehicle, or draw attention to himself. All he has to do is walk up to your car, insert the key and off he goes to the local chop shop with your vehicle.

To avoid this from happening, simply put some electrical or medical tape across the VIN metal plate on the dashboard.

(Editor's Note) In 2003 a car theft ring used this technique to steal vehicles from used car lots. But, its not as easy as the email (above) suggests. It is a complicated process that car theft—without an accomplice at a car dealership—would likely try. It is supposed to be a complicated process with the person wanting the duplicate key having to prove to the satisfaction of the car dealer that he or she owns the vehicle in question. The dealer, theoretically, runs the VIN number to make sure the person asking for the duplicate key is legally entitled to have it. Of course, as I said, it's theoretical. The dealer has an obligation to make sure the person asking for the key owns the vehicle. But, in the reality of life, sometimes car dealers' employees are too lazy and the failsafe system doesn't work because its not implemented.

When the VIN car theft ring was caught their crime publicized on WATE-TV Channel 4 in Pittsburgh. On April 29, 2003 Jim Parsons of WATE-TV aired the story about the theft ring, and also their attempt to get the keys to four vehicles with the permission of the owners. First, they got the keys to a 2003 Chevy Blazer. According to Parsons, it couldn't have been easier.

They gave the dealer a phony story about losing the car to the Blazer which they were driving and which, apparently, was parked in a shopping center or mall parking lot. The car dealer never ran the VIN number nor checked the consumer's identification. The supposed owner, Ed Zito, an auto theft consultant, walked out of the dealership with a key for the Blazer. Zito is a smooth-talker and easily conned the dealerships out of keys. Each of the car dealers told Zito, "...the next time you're thinking about buying a car, come see us." If car dealers will give you keys to any car you want, why bother buying one?

If car dealers take the precautions they are supposed to take—check and verify—this crime could not happen. As long as the car company's employ people only concern is drawing a paycheck without regard for doing their job as best they can, you need to use the tip offered by this reader. While the likelihood of this happening to your vehicle is remote, if you are the one-in-a-million consumers who losses their car or truck to a VIN thief, your vehicle is gone when a penny's worth of electrical tape would have prevented the theft. So, while Urban Legends and Snopes assure you this is not likely to happen to your car, as long as the possibly exists that it could, you need to take precautions.

"By law," Cal@.....com continued, "you cannot remove the VIN, but you can cover it so it can't be viewed through the windshield by a car theft. Simply put some tape (electrical tape, duct tape or medical tape) across the VIN metal plate located on the dash board. I slipped a 3" X 5" index card over the VIN in my vehicle.) Pass this information on to all your family and friends." An penny's worth of prevention is always worth more the price of your deductible and the gap loss you suffer if you lose a late model vehicle.

pqi@******.net—May 3, 2010—Bread Over Freedom? The erosion of the family, the silencing of the church, the disintegration of morality—America is suffering a cultural crisis, but it is not new. These trends also shaped Nazi Germany. Years ago, a cartoon appeared in a Russian newspaper picturing a fork in a road. One path was labeled "freedom," the other path was labeled "sausage." As we might guess, the path to freedom had few takers. The path to sausage was crowded with footprints. When given a choice, people will choose bread and sausage over the free market and individual liberties. The promise of bread gets votes, even if the bread is at the expense of freedom. (Editor's Note: In any society where the governed expect the government to provide them with sustenance, the subjects of the realm will always take sausage over freedom.)

olds44266@******.com—May 3, 2010—This is chilling. In 1992 President Truman established one day a year as "National Day of Prayer." In 1988, President Reagan designated the first Thursday in May of each year as the National Day of Prayer. In June, 2007, then presidential candidate Barack Obama declared that the USA was no longer a Christian nation. This year (April 15, 2010)...Obama canceled the 21st annual National Day of Prayer ceremony at the White House under the rouse of "...not wanting to offend anyone." (Editor's note: when this item hit cyberspace on April 15, it was initially reported that Obama canceled the National Day of Prayer. In point of fact, the national Day of Prayer was a Congressional act and not a presidential act, thus the illegal alien in the White House could not abrogate the National Day of Prayer, which will still take place this year on May 6, 2010. It would be nice if about 10,000 people showed up at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue to prayer for Obama's lost soul on the national Day of Prayer. What Obama, as Resident of the White House could, and did, do was cancel the celebration that every President, including the Great Philanderer, since Reagan has held at the White House since 1981.) On September 25, 2009 from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m., a National Day of Prayer for the Muslim Religion was held on Capitol Hill. There were over 50,000 Muslims that day in DC. I guess it doesn't matter if "Christians" were offended by this event. We obviously don't count as "anyone" anymore. The direction this country is headed should strike fear in the heart of every Christian. Especially knowing that the Muslim religion believes that if Christians cannot be converted to Islam, they should be annihilated.

Keepout5@******.com—Apr. 3, 2010—(Note: this joke goes around with every holiday. I've seen it a hundred times, but if it wasn't so appropriate I probably would not have read it as many times as I have, Too bad it's not true because it really is true. I read it through every holiday season when it resurfaces.) The subject line was FLORIDA JUDGE SETS ATHEIST HOLIDAY.

Tomorrow, April 4, 2010 is Easter Sunday. This holiday, held on the wrong day each spring to separate it from Passover, is celebrated because Jesus Christ rose from the dead after being crucified for our sins. His bodily resurrection affirms to all who believe that by His stripes, His death and His resurrection that those who believe that Jesus died so we might have eternal life with Him in Heaven, will have eternal life with Him in Heaven.The atheist, on the other hand, can spend an eternity in Hell helping countless of confused militant martyrs searching for 72 virgins who are waiting on them, who simply don't exist.

zollander@******.com—Mar. 26, 2010—A McCain presidency may be even more dangerous than an Obama [residency] (note: this website refuses to use the term "president" in describing Barack Hussein Obama since this website, and its author, do not believe non-US citizens (let alone citizens who are not naturally born according to Article II of the Constitution should be according the title of President.) McCain occasionally speaks against a FEW of the left's ideas—enough that he can camouflage himself as a "conservative" before elections. But he voted for the Bush-Obama bailouts (Editor's note: I will comment on this at the end of the article), introduced and supported the unconstitutional McCain-Feingold, which was later declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. McCain pushed hard for amnesty for untold numbers of illegal immigrants (including many criminals) and much, much more...including the miscreant bill (referred to below).

McCain may occasionally oppose Obama, but he is marching to Kenyan war drums—against you and your liberties. If he is reelected in Arizona, that is a bad sign that America will not recover soon from its foray into the far left. Not all leftists are Democrats. As illustrated by the example of "Benedict" Arlen Specter and his shameful switch to the Dems, some hardcore leftists are lurking in the GOP. Check out Enemy Belligerent, Interrogation, Detention and Prosecution Act of 2010 (introduced in the Senate.) B-T-W, McCain is also taking action in AZ to disarm the Minutemen. He wants them stopped because they dare to oppose his reelection.

jjtalbott2002@me.com—Mar. 23, 2010—Goodbye America—"Your multi-trillion dollar healthcaere bill [LAW] continues the Soviet's failed socialist experiemtn. It gives the federal government absolute control over health care in America...

Today Democrats in this House will finally lay the cornerstone [gravestone] of their social utopia on the backs of the American people." This truism was stated in Congress on Black Sunday, a day called by Obama, "This is what 'change' looks like?" The United States I have known for 75 years is gone. It was replaced on Sunday by a totalitarian Marxist insanity ruled by Chicago gangsters. The failed parliamentarian governments of Canada, England, Sweden and othrs are upstaged by the "Big Brother" Obamanation. YHWH God is now free to move the limited warning judgment He has exercised upon the former US into a Biblical full chastisement against a gainsaying and rebellious people. Biblical judgment always follows the same ancient path that is always has throughout history. It's a sure and swift response by the Almighty, as His answer to the rebellious actions of unrepentant people and nations. The exercise of Hegelian Dialectic by puffed up demigods throws the throttle of the Second Law of Thermodynamics, Entropy, into overdrive. Expect it soon. Rav Talbott.

rick_beckrich@******.com—Mar. 8, 2010—The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than the other possibility—German. As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling has some room for improvement, and has accepted a 5-year phase-in plan that would become known as "Euro-English."

In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c." Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k." This should klear up knofusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter. There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f." This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will encourage the removal of double letters wihich have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

By the 4th yer, people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasin "th" with "z" and "w" with "v/" During ze fifz yer, ze unnesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou' and after ziz fifz yer, vevil hav a reil sensibl riten styl.

robert_morningstar@******.com—Jan. 18, 2010—A German's view of Islam. This is one of the best explanations of the Muslim terrorist situation. His references to past history are accurate and clear.

The letter, which was purported in this email to be have been composed by Dr. Emanuel Tanay, MD may have actually been composed by Paul E. Marek, a second-generation Canadian whose grandparents fled Czechoslovakia just before the Nazi takeover of that country. I found the article under his byline dated in Feb., 2006. The first attribute to Dr. Tanay appears on April 7, 2008. Dr. Tanay is a respected clinical psychiatrist at Wayne State University in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Since the original version may have been written months or years earlier by either gentleman, I have no intention of debating authorship.

For the purpose of my dissertation and its inclusion here, who actually wrote it—Marek or Tanay—is irrelevant. Because the comparison I wish to draw from it has nothing to do with either of them, or for that matter, fanatical, extremist Islam. Rather, it has everything to do with the logic of his argument as it applies to the interloper who kidnapped the United States on Nov. 4, 2008 and the lackadaisical attitude of the American people that an illegal alien who is equally as dangerous than Hitler, Stalin and Mao; and more dangerous than Castro and Chavez has, by fraud and deceit, been allowed to steal the reins of the government of the United States of America. Have 'we the people" become as stupid as the peoples of Europe who allowed their nations to be stolen by corrupt tyrants? Sadly, yes. And as the people of Europe and Asia tolerated the interlopers that only a minority of them wanted, they quickly learned—but much too late to save themselves—that these men had also seized the right to end their lives on a whim—and did so without hesitation in order to strengthen their grip on power through political and economic terrorism.

We have made the same life-threatening blunder by placing absolute power within the hands of a small cabal of hardcore communists posing as patriotic Americans. When Obamacare—even without the "public Option"—is signed into law, the elderly of American will discover they have given their government the right to euthanize them if they have any terminal, chronic or catastrophic illness. Listed among the terminal illnesses that can trigger the denial of life saving surgeries or medications is a chronic condition all elderly people suffer from: old age. When the US Senate, without a single GOP vote, bribed their members to vote for the America's Affordable Health Choices Act of 2009, Barack Obama announced, in his press conference that Social Security and Medicare had just been saved. How does passing Obamacare save Medicare and Social Security? Because when the old are euthanized for being "terminally ill," the government is spared the expense of sending them their monthly Social Security checks, and no longer has to bear the cost of their medical care. Kill enough old people and Social Security will be "saved" for another generation.

SDFittal@******.com—Nov. 25, 2009—A very good article! You make the point well that there are too many Obamas, Soros and other useful idiots like Rebecca Peters that wish to destroy the rights we enjoy here in America for ludicrous reasons like "...we shouldn't have those rights because nobody else in the world has them..." Keep up the good writing.

LavenderBlue39@******.com—Nov. 21, 2009— This following is a copy of an article by Spanish writer Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez and published in a Spanish newspaper on 1-15-08. It doesn't take much imagination to extrapolate the message to the rest of Europe—and possibly to the rest of the world.

I walked down the street of Barcelona and suddenly discovered a terrible truth—Europe died in Auschwitz. We killed six million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims. In Auschwitz we burned a culture, thought, creativity, talent. The contribution of this people is felt in every area of life: science, art, international trade, and the conscience of the world. These are the people we burned.

And, under the pretense of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we cured the disease of racism, we opened our gates to 20 million Muslims who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride.

They have blown up our trains and turned our beautiful Spanish cities into the third world, drowning in filth and crime. Shut up in the apartments they receive free from the government, then the murder and destruction of their naive hosts. And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill, intelligence for backwardness and superstition.

We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for hoping for a better future for their children, their determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs.

A lot of Americans have become so insulated from reality that they imagine America can suffer defeat without any consequences. So, to ensure that we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport screeners are not allowed to profile specific peoples. They must conduct random searches..( not on those who fit the geographic and demographic characteristics of those who have sworn Jihad against American but on)...80 year old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification, an 85-year old Congressman with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winner and former Governor Joe Foss, but leave Muslim males between the ages of 17 and 40 alone lest they be accused of racial profiling.

JezRell@******.com—Nov. 11, 2009— This was written by a Metro Denver physician: I was driving home from a meeting this even about 5 .m., stuck in traffic on Colorado Blvd., and the car started to choke and sputter and die. I barely managed to coast into a gas station, glad that I would not be blocking traffic and would have a somewhat warm spot to wait for the tow truck. It wouldn't even turn over.

Before I could make the call, I saw a woman walking out of the Quickie Mart. It looked like she slipped on some ice and fell into a gas pump, so I got out to see if she was okay. When I reached her, it looked more like she had been overcome by sobs than that she had fallen. She was a young woman who looked really haggard, with dark circles under her eyes. She dropped something as I helped her up. I picked it up and gave it to her. It was a nickel.

At that moment, everything came into focus for me. The crying woman, the ancient Suburban crammed full of stuff with 3 kids in the back (one in a car seat) and the gas pump reading $4.95..

I asked her if she was okay and if she needed help. She just kept saying, "I don't want my kids to see me crying." So we moved to the other side of the gas pump out of their direct line of sight. She said she was driving to California and that things were very hard for her right now. So, I asked: "And you were praying?" That made her back away from me a little, but I assured her I was not a crazy person and said: "He heard you. And He sent me."

I took out my credit card and swiped it through the card reader on the pump so she could fill up her car completely. And, while it was filling, I walked next door to McDonald's and bought 3 big bags of food, some gift certificates for more, and a big cup of coffee. She gave the food to the kids in the car who attacked it like wolves, and we stood by the pump eating fries and talking a little.

She told me her name, and that she lived in Kansas City. Her boyfriend left two months ago and she had not been able to make ends meet. She knew she wouldn't have money to pay the rent on January 1, and finally, in desperation, called her parents with whom she had not spoken in about 5 years. They lived in California and said she could come and live with them, and try to get on her feet there.

She said she packed everything she owned in the car. She told her kids they were going to California for Christmas, but not that they were going to live there. I gave her my gloves, a little hug and said a quick prayer with her for safety on the road. As I was walking over to my car, she said: "So, are you like an angel or something?"

Her words made me cry. I said, "Sweetie, at this time of the year, angels are really busy, so sometimes God uses regular people."

It was incredible to be a part of someone else's miracle. And, of course, you guessed it. When I got into my car, it started right away and got me home with no problems. I'll put it in the shop tomorrow to check, but I suspect the mechanic won't find anything wrong. Sometimes the angels fly close enough to you that you can hear the flutter of their wings.

etalbott@******.net—Nov. 7, 2009—Your latest article on the euthanasia plans imbedded in the so-called health care bill is outstanding. Not only have you done your research, but you provide insights and discernment which most articles on the subject are missing. I continue to read each article you post with great interest and forward to my list and save them for future reference. Heaven knows the current health care industry suffers multiple deficiencies in all areas. Now the government wishes to make the failure total, a minus quantity in our lives. This is why I never go to hospitals, clinics or doctors. I use natural supplements, the best diet I can acquire in my circumstances and pray for health. Thanks for writing such a great article that I can share with my list.

syman@******.com—Oct. 16, 2009—A holy man was having a conversation with the Lord one day and said, "Lord, I would to know what Heaven and Hell are like." The Lord led the holy man to two doors. He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked inside the room..

In the middle of the room was a large, round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth water. The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished even though each held eating utensils. They were holding spoons with very long handles that were strapped to their arms. And while each found it easy to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful, the handles of the utensils attached to their arms were simply so long they could not get the spoons anywhere near their mouths. As a result, none of them could eat.

The holy man shuddered at the sight of the misery and suffering of the starving people who, even with an ample supply of food, were nevertheless starving to death.

The Lord said: "You have now seen Hell." They went to the next room and opened the door. The scene was the same as the first one—almost. There was the same large round table. There was that large pot of stew which made the holy man's mouth water. The people were equipped with the same long-handled spoons, but here the people were well-nourished, plump, laughing and talking friendly amongst themselves..

"It's simple," said the Lord. "It requires but one skill. You see, in Heaven, they have learned to feed each other. The greedy think only of themselves. When Jesus died on the cross, He was thinking of you." The lesson of Philadelphia is that a man who helps his brother and the woman who helps her sister will find the love of God among them. And, when man shares this love with his fellow man, all men prosper in the eyes of God.

Jezrell@******.com—Sept. 24, 2009—Asparagus—who knew? My Mom had been taking the full-stalk canned style asparagus that she pureed and took 4 tablespoons in the morning and 4 tablespoons later in the day. She did that for over a month. She is on chemo pills for Stage 3 lung cancer in the pleural area, and her cancer cell count (her CA-125) went from 386 to 125 as of this past week. Her oncologist told her she does not need to see him for 3 months.

Several years ago, I knew a man who was looking for asparagus for a friend who had cancer. He gave me a photocopy of an article entitled ASPARAGUS FOR CANCER that was printed in the Cancer News Journal, Dec., 1979. I will share it here, just as it was shared with me.

Editor's note. There were a couple of additional examples given and the type of canned asparagus the patients theoretically used. I stopped short of using all of that email because the much forwarded email suggests the article is a reprint from an article in the CANCER NEWS JOURNAL If you have ever read a medical journal, you know you pretty much have to be a Ph.D to understand it. The language in that email did not come a from a medical journal. That is not to say the Journal did not write an article in 1979 and that the content of this email is paraphrased from those case studies. I opted to cite the email for two reasons. First, there are scores of home remedies that are as curative and, perhaps, more curative (and safer) than some of the pharmaceuticals used today. Just remember, God would not put us on this planet and then unleash a horde of vicious diseases to wipe us out without providing natural cures to eliminate every scourge that can take our lives. Second, I honestly believe the cure to every disease known to man will be found in natural ingredients we use every day in every walk of life. If you recall, in 1535 when Jacques Cartier was exploring the St. Lawrence seaway, his ship got locked in ice for the entire winter of 1534. His crew began dying of scurvy. Unlike previous sailing masters who many times lost their entire crews to scurvy, a friendly Indian (probably a Chippewa since the Iroquois were at war with the white-eyes) taught them how to make a tea out of white cedar (Anneda) bark and pine needles. The brew saved the lives of those members of Cartier's crew who had not already succumbed to scurvy. Cartier brought samples of the bark and cuttings back to Europe. His botanist isolated a compound in the bioflavonoid and patented it as "pycnogenol." How did that save Cartier and his crew? Because it was 50 times stronger than Vitamin E and 20 times more powerful that Vitamin C. Vitamin E is an element that acts as a transporter to carrying other nutrients to their needed destinations in the body. Do I think asparagus cures cancer? I'm not a doctor. I have no idea. Do I think asparagus may retard cancer growth by retarding cancer cell development? There seems to be a growing concensus in the medical community that it might. I suspect that various researchers around the world would not be spending vast amounts of money analyzing asparagus if they thought asparagus had no potential curative benefits. One India government report cites a study done by Dabur Research who is working on a peptid-based anticancer drug for the treatment of colorectal cancer includes a patent application for a "...oligospirostanoside from Asparagus racemosus." Their research convinced them that asparagus contains ellagic acid, and that the vegetable is a potential anticancer agent that is a potential immuno-dulatory agent. Oh, and by the way—for you drinkers out there—eating asparagus the "morning after," may get rid of your hangover.

etalbott@******.net—I want to let you know that I went to your website, read your testimony, and was blown away. It was marvelous. I have some pretty awesome experiences with that same Jewish Rabbi, Yeshua (Jesus), and I am always thrilled to hear or read something as powerful as your testimony. Thank you for all the great articles you post on NWV. Blessings, Erlene Talbott.

mmahoney@60plus.org (From Jim Martin: 60 Plus Association)—SUGGESTION FOR HEALTHCARE DEBATE: (...) OBAMA SHOULD FOLLOW THE ADVISE OF CANDIDATE OBAMA. Presidential candidate Barack Obama repeatedly stated on the campaign trail that any overhaul of healthcare should be negiotiated publicly and televised for all to see. In his stump speech he would say it should be televised with a big table and seats filled with doctors, nurses, insurers, and other interested parties. Then he would joke...he would get the biggest chair. Not behind closed doors, candidate Obama said, but he would bring all parties together and broadcast those negotiations on CSPAN. We suggest the President keep his pledge.

Mr. Obama, deep six this unread, misunderstood piece of gobbledegook that scares seniors, and start over. Send a message that you are going to live up to (your) oft-repeated campaign promise.

(From a friend in Australia)—Hey, There: to be honest, most of us didn't notice (the outage). The shutting down was explained to be "technical difficulties" with the gateway from Australian to International connection. Those of us smart enough to still have dial-up weren't affected. Well, I wasn't, anyway. A few of us suspected from the start that they were adding or taking something to (or from) the mix, but we really are all over the censoring and the "we know all you do" state of mind. The new "terrorism laws" were broken the minute they existed. Conveniently enough, most were in capital cities. We, who are "out in the sticks" can't really be bothered to take over this country. It has gone down hill so fast that we wouldn't have much to take over. The government is doing nicely enough, undermining a country that many people died sweating and slaving to make.

mayers4004@******.com—Aug. 26, 2009—As a proud member of the Lakota tribe, I can hardly begin to describe how angry it makes me to have any native peopled used to bolster your arguments. (http://www.jonchristianryter.com/Video/090820.html) The truth about Indian health care has nothing to do with socialism; it is all about genocide and an uncaring non-Indian population. You sir, are as full of bull-sh*t rhetoric and opinions as any politician I know. You are just another liar, just another undesirable in what was once a free country—before 1637. Go back to the land of your ancestors, who couldn't even get along with each other; and take your superstitious, poisonous religious views with you.

My reply: Since I made no unsubstantiaed claims, and used two government reports and two videos made by a native American to show what happened to the promise of health care for the Six Tribes, I'm puzzlede by your anger. Must be you think the "Great White Father" in Washington really is all things to all people. If you want a preview of what Obamacare will be like, ask an Indian—that is..except you, apparently.

tmcaputo@******.net—July 4, 2009
Here's another "goodie" from Ms. Stupid (Nancy Pelosi). Just add this one to the list—Pelois said this one TWICE (when the Democratic leadership was attempting to pass their "stimulus bills.") "If the Stimulus (Spending) Package is not passed quickly, then 500 million people will lose their jobs." Since there are approximately 280-300 million people currently living in the US, total, I would assume the remainder she is referring to are illegal Mexicans. (To Ms. Pelosi: Hey stupid, there are approximately 304 million people living in the USA!" We suppose the jobs the stimulus bill will protect are those we have already exported to China.)

Grnjllybn@******.com—June 30 , 2009
The actress Natasha Richardson died (at 45 years of age) after falling while skiing in Canada. It took eight hours to get her to a hospital. If Canada had our healthcare, it is felt that she would be alive today. We now have helicopters that would have gotten her to a hospital in 30 minutes. Obama wants to make our healthcare just like Canada's and England's. In England, anyone over 59 cannot receive heart repairs or stints or bypass because it is not covered as being too expensive—and not needed. I bet if Obama's parents needed the best of healthcare, they would damn well get it. (Editor's note: Obama's mother, father, suspected father and step-father are all dead.)...If Obama's plans in other areas don't scare you, this should since everyone who doesn't die young gets old. (Editor's note: Buried in one of the stimulus bills that has been enacted was a provision to create a healthcare czar and a commission that will establish the guidelines which determine when surgical procedurres and medical treatment will be deemed to be not cost-productive and refused to patients seeking medical attention. Procedures which are denied to recipients covered under government healthcare plans will not be allowed to them even if they agree to pay 100% of the costs themselves. The Democrats' best solution to cut Social Security and Medicare costs is to eliminate the recipients of benefits under those plans.)

Looks like Obama is keeping his word—CHANGE. We better have our funerals paid up. We may be needing them sooner rather than later with no doctors on our side to keep us healthy. What will this world be like in another 20 years when our kids are ready for retirement? Sad. Although with such a miserly healthcare system, they may never reach retirement age. Please...do not let Obama, this enemy of America, sign senior death warrants. Everyone on this mailing list is either a senior citizen, is getting close, or know someone who is.

Most of you know that the Senate version of the stimulus bill includes...extensive rationing of health care for senior citizens. The author of that part of the bill, former Senator and tax evader Tom Daschle is credited by Bloomberg with the following statement: "Healthcare reform will not be pain free. Seniors should be more accepting of the conditions that come with age instead of treating them. That means the elderly will bear the brunt." That's really of a lot of gall since his "conditions" will be treated as though he were royalty no matter how old he gets. I think he means we should drop dead and get out of Obama's way.

Editor's Note: The seniors in States like Florida, New Mexico, Arizona and California that vote for Democrats because the AARP (which receives about $85 million per year in taxpayer dollars to lobby on behalf of the US government's position on aging) has been brainwashed to believe that Democrats advocate on behalf of the elderly. They advocate for senior votes and legislate against the seniors they profess to help. If America's seniors actually took the time to read the legislation that will affect what's left of their lives instead of believing the Democrats who are voting to end their lives in order to save Social Security and Medicare by eliminating the drain caused by those seniors, they would never vote for another Democrat.
