You need to get out and VOTE

Feedback…

Even if you have to vote for a third party candidate, you NEED to get out there and vote. Be sure your adult children vote. Help your neighbors to get to the polls so they can vote.

You have a RIGHT to vote, so does every other citizen. I don't know if we can correct the harm done to this nations of ours, but we can at least get a start on it.

Hopefully it can help to stop stuff like this from continuing.

Pay no attention…

This is short and to the point.  Please read and pass along.

  

Charity Hospital run by the Sisters of Charity in New Orleans, along with the Upjohn company developed the plasma system in the 1930's that saved so many lives in WWII, Korea, Vietnam and in the middle east now.

During the Civil War most of the nurses were nuns.

EVEN IF YOU ARE NOT CATHOLIC, THIS IS EYE OPENING.

When the Catholic Church was founded, there were no hospitals. Today, one out of five people in this country receive their medical care at a Catholic hospital.

When the Catholic Church was founded, there were no schools. Today, the Catholic Church teaches 3 million students a day, in its more than 250 Catholic Colleges and Universities, in its more than 1200 Catholic High Schools and its more than 5000 Catholic grade schools.

Every day, the Catholic Church feeds, clothes, shelters and educates more people than any other organization in the world.

The new Obama Health Mandate could end all this and the tax payers would have to make up the loss.

Also, all Catholic adoption services would come to an end; a human disaster.

There are more than 77 million Catholics in this country. It takes an estimated 50 million Catholic votes to elect a president.

I am asking all of you to go to the polls in 2014 and be united in replacing all Senators and Reps with someone who will respect the Catholic Church, all Christians, and all Religions with perhaps the exception of Islam.

Mr. President, you said, "The USA is not a Christian Nation". You are wrong - we are a Christian Nation founded on Judeo-Christian values allowing all religions in America to Worship & Practice Freely. Something Islam will never do.

Oh, by the way, on MUSLIM HERITAGE IN America ...

Have you ever been to a Muslim hospital, heard a Muslim orchestra, seen a Muslim band march in a parade, know of a Muslim charity,ever seen Muslims shaking hands with a Muslim Girl Scout, or ever seen a Muslim Candy Striper volunteering in a hospital?

Have you ever seen a Muslim do much of anything that contributes positively to the American way of life?

DON'T KEEP THIS - please SEND IT OUT TO YOUR LIST!  

Let's circulate this to as many as possible.  And remember the elections coming up in 2014 and 2016!

How is this news?

Could YOU live without toilet paper? Meet the women who choose to wipe with a reusable piece of cloth instead

Seriously? That is what is considered news these days? No wonder this world is in trouble.

More invasions of our Rights

"Cecilia Abadie, a technology entrepreneur, was stopped for speeding in October and handed a second citation by an officer who claimed she violated California law by using a visual "monitor" while driving. However, a judge dismissed the citation after ruling there was a lack of proof her device was turned on at the time."

The first part of the story about the gentleman who was pulled out of a movie theater by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement Agents.  Since when does ICE enforce intellectual property and copyright laws?

We have more and more instances of government agents overstepping their authority and their supervisors in D.C. are doing NOTHING to rein it in.

I think it is a calculated plan, the more they step on our rights without howling like a banshee, the more they will continue to do it, until there comes a time we can't even turn over in our own beds without filing for permits and having environmental impact statements taken.

So contact your representatives and senators and ask them how and why this is happening.

FIREARMS INFORMATION RELATIVE TO MEDICAL INQUIRIES-from the inbox

Checked SNOPES and TRUTHORFICTION and unable to confirm the following.

 

Do you have a gun in the house? Always Answer,"NO"     Read on GOOD TO KNOW!       When I had my gallbladder taken out and spent 10 days in the hospital for what should have been an overnight stay the insurance company kicked me out. I had home nurse visits for two weeks and was asked if I had guns in the house. I responded that if I did I would not tell them. So the below has some merit.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ FYI        I am passing this along... these are comments from two other people who also been asked if they keep guns in the house.  The nurse just kinda slipped it in along with all the other regular questions.     I told her I refused to answer because it was against the law to ask.      Everyone, whether you have guns or not, should give a neutral answer so they have no idea who does and who doesn't. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~     My doctor asked me if I had guns in my house and also if any were loaded.   I, of course, answered yes to both questions. Then he asked why I kept a loaded gun close to my bed.       I answered that my son, who is a certified gun instructor and also works for Homeland Security, advised me that an unloaded, locked up gun is no protection against criminal attack.      The Government now requires these questions be asked of people on Medicare, and probably everyone else affected by ObamaCare !!!           ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~      Just passing this along for your information:      I had to visit a doctor other than my regular doctor when my doctor was on vacation.          One of the questions on the form I had to fill out was: "Do you have any guns in your house?"      My answer was None of your damn business!   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~     So it is out there! It is either an insurance issue or government intervention.      Either way, it is out there and the moment the government gets into your medical records (as they want to under Obamacare) it will become a major issue and will ultimately result in lock and load!      Please pass this on to all the other retired guys and gun owners. Thanks.  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From a Vietnam Vet and retired Police Officer: I had a doctor's appointment at the local VA clinic yesterday and found out something very interesting that I would like to pass along. While going through triage before seeing the doctor, I was asked at the end of the exam, three questions: 1. Did I feel stressed 2. Did I feel threatened? 3. Did I feel like doing harm to someone? The nurse then informed me that if I had answered yes to any of the questions I would have lost my concealed carry permit as it would have gone into my medical records and the VA would have reported it to Homeland Security.   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Looks like they are going after the vets first. Other gun people like retired law enforcement will probably be next. Then when they go after the civilians, what argument will they have? Be forewarned and be aware. The Obama administration has gone on record as considering veterans and gun owners potential terrorists. Whether you are a gun owner, veteran or not, YOU'VE BEEN WARNED ! If you know veterans and gun owners, please pass this on to them. Be very cautious about what you say and to whom. They are coming for us, so unless you're an ostrich, do not stick your head in the sand. Yeah, Eric Holder was overheard at a D.C. dinner by a Washington Post reporter to say, "The sure way to gain control over the terrifying number of firearms owned by the citizens is to start with the Medicare crowd; they'll be the demographic most likely to own a plethora of weapons and will be the easiest to gain information about such weapons from."

Do You Remember Sept 29, 1959?

                     

     

DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN RUSSIAN NIKITA KHRUSHCHEV APPEARED

AT THE U.N. AND BANGED HIS SHOE ON THE PODIUM?     

(Yes)

THIS WAS HIS ENTIRE QUOTE:

"Your children's children will live under communism. You Americans are so gullible.  No, you won't accept communism outright; but we'll keep feeding you small doses of Socialism until you finally wake up and find that you already have Communism.  We won't have to fight you; WE'LL SO WEAKEN YOUR ECONOMY, until you fall like overripe fruit into our hands." 

Nikita Krushchev, 1959

"The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are

willing to work and give to those who would not."-- Thomas Jefferson

"How to Create the Social State" (because socialism leads to communism) by Saul  Alinsky:

There are 8 levels of control that must be obtained before you are able to create a social state.

The first is the most  important.

1) Healthcare - Control healthcare and you control the  people.

2) Poverty - Increase the Poverty level as high as possible,  poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing  everything for them to live.

3) Debt - Increase the debt to an  unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will  produce more poverty.

4) Gun Control - Remove the ability to  defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a police  state.  

5) Welfare - Take control of every aspect (food, housing, income) of their lives because that will make them fully dependent on the government.

6) Education - Take control of what  people read and listen to and take control of what children learn in  school.

7) Religion - Remove the belief in God from the Government  and schools because the people need to believe in ONLY the government knowing what is best for the people.

8) Class Warfare - Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor.  Eliminate the middle class.  This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to tax the  wealthy with the support of the poor.

She may lose her job!-from the inbox

At last someone has said what should be printed in EVERY news media and over all TV stations Fox news etc. As well as to everyone on your e-mail list.  I have, will you?  HER JOB  ??.............. This teacher has more guts than our entire Congress, Supreme Court and the Obama administration.  GOD bless the teacher.   A TEACHER FROM THE GREAT STATE OF MISSOURI WILL LOSE HER JOB FOR STANDING UP FOR ALL OF US. Give this teacher and true American a standing ovation.  This 4th grade teacher has said it all, and she was brave enough to attach her name to it. The White House 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington , DC 20500 Mr. Obama: I have had it with you and your administration, sir.  Your conduct on your recent trip overseas has convinced me that you are not an adequate representative of the United States of America collectively or of me personally. You are so obsessed with appeasing the Europeans and the Muslim world that you have abdicated the responsibilities of the President of the United States of America . You are responsible to the citizens of the United States .  You are not responsible to the peoples of any other country on earth. I personally resent that you go around the world apologizing for the United States , telling Europeans that we are arrogant and do not care about their status in the world. Sir, what do you think the First World War and the Second World War were all about, if not the consideration of the peoples of Europe ? Are you brain dead?  What do you think the Marshall Plan was all about?  Do you not understand or know the history of the 20th century? Where do you get off telling a Muslim country that the United States does not consider itself a Christian country? Have you not read the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution of the United States ? This country was founded on Judeo-Christian ethics and the principles governing this country, at least until you came along, come directly from this heritage.  Do you not understand this? Your bowing to the king of Saudi Arabia is an affront to all Americans.  Our President does not bow down to anyone, let alone the king of Saudi Arabia .  You didn't show Great Britain , our best and one of our oldest allies, the respect they deserve yet you bow down to the king of Saudi Arabia . How dare you, sir! How dare you! You can't find the time to visit the graves of our greatest generation because you don't want to offend the Germans, but make time to visit a mosque in Turkey !  You offended our dead and every veteran when you give the Germans more respect than the people who saved the German people from themselves.  What's the matter with you? I am convinced that you and the members of your administration have the historical and intellectual depth of a mud puddle and should be ashamed of yourselves, all of you. You are so self-righteously offended by the big bankers and the American automobile manufacturers, yet do nothing about the real thieves in this situation, Mr. Dodd, Mr. Frank, Franklin Raines, Jamie Gorelic, the Fannie Mae bonuses, and the Freddie Mac bonuses. What do you intend to do about them?  Anything?  I seriously doubt it. What about the U.S. House members passing out $9.1 million in bonuses to their staff members on top of the $2.5 million in automatic pay raises that lawmakers gave themselves?  I understand the average House aide got a 17% bonus.  I took a 5% cut in my pay to save jobs with my employer. You haven't said anything about that.  Who authorized that?  I surely didn't! Executives at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will be receiving $210 million in bonuses over an eighteen-month period, that's $45 million more than the AIG bonuses. In fact, Fannie and Freddie executives have already been awarded $51 million not a bad take.  Who authorized that and why haven't you expressed your outrage at this group who are largely responsible for the economic mess we have right now? I resent that you take me and my fellow citizens as brain-dead and not caring about what you idiots do. We are watching what you are doing and we are getting increasingly fed up with all of you. I also want you to know that I personally find just about everything you do and say to be offensive to every one of my sensibilities.        I promise you that I will work tirelessly to see that you do not destroy my beautiful country. Sincerely, A real American Ms Kathleen Lyday Fourth Grade Teacher Grandview Elementary School 11470 Hwy . C Hillsboro , MO 63050 PS: I rarely ask that emails be passed around ...but PLEASE SEND THIS TO YOUR EMAIL LIST...it's time for all Americans to wake up ! (This woman may lose her job for this letter.  I believe we owe it to her for expressing the outrage that we feel, but fail to address.) Please pass this on.

COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT BETTER !!!! - from the inbox

Should I Really Join Facebook?

Read it all the way through! It's a good laugh! AND really quite true!!
 

When I bought my Blackberry, I thought about the 30-year business I ran with 1800 employees, all without a cell phone that plays music, takes videos, pictures and communicates with Facebook and Twitter.  I signed up under duress for Twitter and Facebook, so my seven kids, their spouses, my 13 grand kids and 2 great grand kids could communicate with me in the modern way.  I figured I could handle something as simple as Twitter with only 140 characters of space.

My phone was beeping every three minutes with the details of everything except the bowel movements of the entire next generation.  I am not ready to live like this. I keep my cell phone in the garage in my golf bag.

The kids bought me a GPS for my last birthday because they say I get lost every now and then going over to the grocery store or library.  I keep that in a box under my tool bench with the Blue tooth [it's red ] phone I am supposed to use when I drive.  I wore it once and was standing in line at Barnes and Noble talking to my wife and everyone in the nearest 50 yards was glaring at me.  I had to take my hearing aid out to use it, and I got a little loud.

I mean the GPS looked pretty smart on my dash board, but the lady inside that gadget was the most annoying, rudest person I had run into in a long time. Every 10 minutes, she would sarcastically say, "Re-calc-u-lating."  You would think that she could be nicer. It was like she could barely tolerate me.  She would let go with a deep sigh and then tell me to make a U-turn at the next light.  Then if I made a right turn instead.  Well, it was not a good relationship...
When I get really lost now, I call my wife and tell her the name of the cross streets and while she is starting to develop the same tone as Gypsy, the GPS lady, at least she loves me.

To be perfectly frank , I am still trying to learn how to use the cordless phones in our house.  We have had them for 4 years, but I still haven't figured out how I lose three phones all at once and have to run around digging under chair cushions, checking bathrooms, and the dirty laundry baskets when the phone rings.

The world is just getting too complex for me.  They even mess me up every time I go to the grocery store.  You would think they could settle on something themselves but this sudden "Paper or Plastic?" every time I check out just knocks me for a loop.  I bought some of those cloth reusable bags to avoid looking confused , but I never remember to take them with me.

Now I toss it back to them.  When they ask me, "Paper or plastic?"  I just say, "Doesn't matter to me. I am bi-sacksual." Then it's their turn to stare at me with a blank look.  I was recently asked if I tweet.  I answered , No, but I do fart a lot."

P.S. I know some of you are not over 70. I sent it to you to allow you to forward it to those who are.

Not me I figured your sense of humor could handle it....

We senior citizens don't need anymore gadgets. The TV remote and the garage door remote are about all we can handle.

 

Friends-from the inbox

Look carefully in each picture for the cat as it makes its way down from the roof to the dog. Then, check the explanation at the end.

The story behind this picture is this:

Every day - at the same time - she waits for him.

Sometimes she barks to call him.

He comes; they rub and greet each other

And they go for a walk.

They have done this for 5 years

And no, they don't belong to the same owners.

The owners didn't know until neighbors, seeing them together so frequently,

Commented to the cat's owner, who then followed the dog home

And discovered it was a distance away, not in a house close by or next door.

How it started no one knows.

Wouldn't it be great to have friends like this

Always there, no words needed, they just intuitively recognize

The value of each other in their lives and act accordingly.

Live, Laugh, Love
Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.
The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

A wise person once said ...There comes a time in life, when you walk away from all the drama and people who create it.

You surround yourself with people who make you laugh, forget the bad, and focus on the good.

So love the people who treat you right, pray for the ones who don't.

Life is too short to be anything but happy.

Falling down is a part of life, getting back up is living.
