Obama Has No Birth Certificate

I received this in an email...

 

Finally... a Cure for Too Much Barack Obama!

This is definitely my favorite email of the week!  I know there are plenty of people who would really love to buy some of this stuff.  I need to take some just to watch the news these days!

Barack Obama Empty Rhetoric Award

I know many politicians, both Democrat and Republican, are worthy of this award.  I just can't think of anybody quite as deserving as Barack Obama...

Here's Why You Should Vote Republican...

My favorite email this week offers a good explanation of how Democrats will screw up our economy if we elect Obama, especially if we also re-elect our Democratic Congress.  Enjoy!

"Once upon a time, on a farm in Virginia , there was a little red hen who scratched about the barnyard until she uncovered quite a few grains of wheat.
 
She called all of her Democrat neighbors together and said, 'If we plant this wheat, we shall have bread to eat. Who will help me plant it?'
 
'Not I,' said the cow.
 
'Not I,' said the duck.
 
'Not I,' said the pig.
 
'Not I,' said the goose.
 
'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen, and so she did.   The wheat grew very tall and ripened into golden grain.
 
'Who will help me reap my wheat?' asked the little red hen.

'Not I,' said the duck.
 
'Out of my classification,' said the pig.
 
'I'd lose my seniority,' said the cow.
 
'I'd lose my unemployment compensation,' said the goose.
 
'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen, and so she did.
 
At last it came time to bake the bread.  'Who will help me bake the bread?' asked the little red hen.
 
'That would be overtime for me,' said the cow.
 
'I'd lose my welfare benefits,' said the duck.
 
'I'm a dropout and never learned how,' said the pig.

'If I'm to be the only helper, that's discrimination,' said the goose.

'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen.  She baked five loaves and held them up for all of her neighbors to see. They wanted some and, in fact, demanded a share. But the little red hen said, 'No, I shall eat all five loaves.'
 
'Excess profits!' cried the cow. (Nancy Pelosi)
 
'Capitalist leech!' screamed the duck. (Barbara Boxer)
 
'I demand equal rights!' yelled the goose. (Jesse Jackson)
 
The pig just grunted in disdain. (Ted Kennedy)
 
And they all painted 'Unfair!' picket signs and marched around and around the little red hen, shouting obscenities.
 
Then the farmer (Obama) came. He said to the little red hen, 'You must not be so greedy.'
 
'But I earned the bread,' said the little red hen.

'Exactly,' said Barack the farmer. 'That is what makes our free enterprise system so wonderful. Anyone in the barnyard can earn as much as he wants. But under our modern government regulations, the productive workers must divide the fruits of their labor with those who are lazy and idle.'
 
And they all lived happily ever after, including the little red hen, who smiled and clucked, 'I am grateful, for now I truly understand.'
 
But her neighbors became quite disappointed in her. She never again baked bread because she joined the 'party' and got her bread free. And all the Democrats smiled. 'Fairness' had been established.
 
Individual initiative had died, but nobody noticed; perhaps no one cared...so long as there was free bread that 'the rich' were paying for.
 
EPILOGUE
 
Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs.
 
Hillary got $8 million for hers.
 
That's $20 million for the memories from two people, who for eight years, repeatedly testified, under oath, that they couldn't remember anything.
 
IS THIS A GREAT BARNYARD OR WHAT?"

IRS Tax Audit Joke

Here's a funny IRS joke I received by email.  Enjoy!

The IRS decides to audit Ralph, and summons him to the IRS office. The IRS auditor is not surprised when Ralph shows up with his attorney.

The auditor says, 'Well, sir, you have an extravagant lifestyle and no full-time employment, which you explain by saying that you win money gambling. I'm not sure the IRS finds that believable.'

'I'm a great gambler, and I can prove it,' says Ralph.  'How about a  demonstration?'

The auditor thinks for a moment and said,  'Okay. Go ahead.'

Ralph says,  'I'll bet you a thousand dollars that I can bite my own eye.'

The auditor thinks a moment and says, 'It's a bet.'

Ralph removes his glass eye and bites it.

The auditor's jaw drops.

Ralph says, 'Now, I'll bet you two thousand dollars that I can bite my other eye.'

Now the auditor can tell Ralph isn't blind, so he takes the bet.

Ralph removes his dentures and bites his good eye.

The stunned auditor now realizes he has wagered and lost three grand, with Ralph's attorney as a witness. He starts to get nervous.

'Want to go double or nothing?' Ralph asks. 'I'll bet you six thousand dollars that I can stand on one side of your desk, and pee into that wastebasket on the other side, and never get a drop anywhere in between.'

The auditor, twice burned, is cautious now, but he looks carefully and decides there's no way this guy could possibly manage that stunt, so he agrees again.

Ralph stands beside the desk and unzips his pants, but although he strains mightily, he can't make the stream reach the wastebasket on the other side, so he pretty much urinates all over the auditor's desk.

The auditor leaps with joy, realizing that he has just turned a major loss into a huge win. But Ralph's attorney moans and puts his head in his hands. 

'Are you okay?' the auditor asks.

'Not really,' says the attorney. 'This morning, when Ralph told me he'd been summoned for an audit, he bet me twenty-five thousand dollars that he could come in here and piss all over your desk and that you'd be happy about it..

Should I Vote Democrat or Republican? Be Careful How You Vote!

This is my favorite email of the week.  And with the 2008 Presidential election right around the corner, this story has two great lessons we should all definitely remember!

Awsop's Favle told and retold.....

OLD VERSION:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.

Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed.  The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.

MORAL OF THE STORY:  Be responsible for yourself!

MODERN VERSION:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.

Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while others are cold and starving.  CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast.

How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?
Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper, and everybody cries when they sing, "It's Not Easy Being Green."

Jesse Jackson stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the group singing, "We shall overcome."  Jesse then has the group kneel down to pray to God for the grasshopper's sake.  Nancy Pelosi & John Kerry exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share.

Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer.

The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the government.  Hillary gets her former employer, the Rose Law Firm, to represent the grasshopper in a defamation suit against the ant, and the case is tried before a jury comprised of single-parent welfare recipients.  The ant loses the case.

The story ends as we see the grasshopper finishing up the last bits of the ant's food while the government house he is in, which just happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around him because he doesn't maintain it.

The ant has disappeared in the snow.  The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the once peaceful neighborhood.

MORAL OF THE STORY:  Be careful how you vote.

Democrats Reject Democracy in US House of Representatives

First of all, let's get one thing totally clear...SCHIP is a SHAM.

It's truly a shame.  Not only are the Democrats back to their old tricks of trying to hand out government services to every illegal alien they can find.  But they're doing it:

• in a corrupt manner
• at the expense of senior citizens and other hard-working Americans
• behind the backs of their constituents

SCHIP is not about insuring children and poor people.  It's a farce - the Democrats are USING CHILDREN and POOR PEOPLE to gain support for a bill they know would otherwise be overwhelmingly opposed (Remember the Amnesty bill - HELLO?).  SCHIP is really a step towards socialized medicine, and an attempt to give free health care to illegal aliens.  Call your Senators and Congressmen - or you'll be paying for this free illegal alien healthcare before you know it.  And when you get old, you yourself will find yourself with no Medicare.  Since we can't afford to give healthcare to everybody, the Democrats have decided that illegal aliens are more deserving of free healthcare than hard-working American senior citizens who have spent their entire lives paying into a corrupt, sham system that promised them something in return.

Below is another email I received from Congressman John Shadegg.  This really is a sad day for America.

To: Shadegg Insiders
From: Congressman John Shadegg

Last night I witnessed something I never thought possible on the floor of the U.S. House.  Below is the press release I issued about it.

DEMOCRACY OVERRULED
Democrats Abuse Power - Alter Vote Count

WASHINGTON , D.C. - House Democrats last night overruled a clear vote showing that the Republican Motion-to-Recommit on the Agriculture Appropriations bill had passed.  Democrats ruled, instead, that the motion failed.

With the vote total boards at each end of the House Chamber clearly showing the Republican motion prevailing by a vote of 215 to 213 and the word "FINAL" displayed beside that count, the Democrat Chairman gaveled the vote closed, announcing the Republican motion had failed on a 214 to 214 tie.

"I have been here almost 13 years and I thought I had seen it all, but tonight's display of corrupt, raw, partisan political power was stunning," said Rep. John Shadegg (AZ-03). "I honestly didn't think this could happen in America.  This is a sad day for the U.S. House and a tragic day for our nation."

Following a protracted period of chaotic protest and procedural w rangling, Democrats altered the displayed vote total two more times.  However, when Democrats refused to acknowledge their abuse of power and accept the passage of the motion, Republicans walked out en masse in protest.

"If my vote doesn't count, what point is there in voting?" Shadegg said.  "I owe it to my constituents and to this nation to demand integrity and fairness in the operations of this institution."

Democrats Increase Taxes to Expand Government, at the Expense of Seniors Who Rely on Medicare

What a country!  Before the Senate gets around to voting on this, everybody and their brother needs to call, fax, and write their Senators to let them know that the State Children's Health Insurance Program, aka 'SCHIP' is a bunch of SH CRAP!  Below is a copy of an email I received from Arizona's Republican Congressman John Shadegg.  In my humble opinion, Shadegg is one of the good guys - he stands up for conservative values even when it's unpopular with his peers.   In fact, to those Arizona Republicans looking for a true conservative to support financially (you know all you people who used to donate money to Senator Kyl and Senator McCain!), I strongly recommend donating money to Congressman Shadegg.  From what I've seen, he actually represents his constituents as he was elected to do.  He opposed the Amnesty bill while AZ Representative Jeff Flake and Senators Jon Kyl & John McCain caved to the President's shamnesty bill.  Shadegg remained firmly opposed even when Bush and his Washington heavies tried to strongarm amnesty opponents - they even went as far as to label opponents as 'racists'.  Anyway, before I get side-tracked further, here's Congressman Shadegg's email:

To: Shadegg Insiders
From: Congressman John Shadegg

On Wednesday night the Democrats in the U.S. House passed a massive expansion of the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP).  The expansion allows states -- even encourages them - to provide coverage to ADULTS, including CHILDLESS adults.  A bill which will extend SCHIP funding beyond the working poor -for which the program was intended - to not just middle income families making more than $45,000 a year, but also to upper middle income Americans making $60,000 to $80,000 a year.  And the bill has no asset test, so the children of the richest Americans could be eligible. To pay for their expansion of coverage beyond just the uninsured children, the Democrats cut spending for the Medicare Advantage program.  It would eliminate coverage for 3 million seniors across America (more than 50,000 in Arizona alone).

The Democrats rushed this through Congress in barely 8 days, with no committee hearings, no Republican amendments and only three hours of debate on the floor. To try to hold the Democrats accountable, on the day before the vote Republicans attempted to discuss the problems with the Democrat's SCHIP bill while debating the Department of Agriculture appropriations bill. 

The Democrats were none too happy about this maneuver.  And, it actually was a lot of fun to use floor procedure to engage in the debate.  Below you will find my floor remarks and my back and forth with Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. and the Chair as I point out the flaws in the Democrat's SCHIP bill in the context of my support for a cut in the Agriculture appropriations bill.

Congressional Record, July 31, 2007, Debate on McHenry Amendment to H.R. 3161, Department of Agriculture appropriations bill

Mr. SHADEGG. I rise in strong support of the McHenry amendment to reduce the budget of the Office of the Secretary by $101,000.
   
The reason I support that amendment is because I do not support cutting the Medicare Advantage program by billions of dollars and hurting seniors.
   
POINT OF ORDER
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. Point of order.
 
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman from Illinois will state his point of order.
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. Madam Chairman, the majority has accepted the McHenry amendment and the minority continues to engage in irrelevant debate.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman from Arizona has confined his remarks to the pending amendment. The gentleman may proceed.
   
Mr. SHADEGG. Thank you. I would rather cut the Secretary's budget by $101 billion as a way to save money than to cut the Medicare Advantage program because the Medicare Advantage program helps millions of Americans and thousands in my own congressional district. So as the Democrats propose to cut that program in their SCHIP bill, I believe it would be better to cut this program.
   
I rise in support of the McHenry amendment to cut $101,000 from the Secretary's budget because the Medicare Advantage bill will cut 3 million seniors' ability to collect their benefits through Medicare Advantage. That 3 million includes some of the poorest of seniors who are on Medicare Advantage, and I would rather cut $101,000 from the Secretary's budget than cut that money going to Medicare seniors who need it desperately.
   
I support the amendment by the gentleman from North Carolina (Mr . McHenry) to cut $101,000 from the budget of the Secretary of Agriculture because the other cut we are faced with is a $15 billion cut in part A, including a cut in benefits to skilled nursing facilities, as the Democrats propose to do in their SCHIP bill.
   
I would rather cut the Department of Agriculture's budget than----
   
POINT OF ORDER
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. Point of order.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman will suspend.
   
The gentleman from Illinois will state his point of order.
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. The majority has accepted the McHenry amendment and the minority continues to engage in irrelevant debate about the SCHIP program in another bill for another day.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman from Arizona must confine his remarks to the pending question.
   
The gentleman may proceed.
   PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY
   
Mr. SHADEGG. Parliamentary inquiry.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman may state his parliamentary inquiry.
   
Mr. SHADEGG. I presume I can state my reason for supporting the amendment; is that correct?
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman must keep his remarks to the pending question, and there must be a nexus between the pending question and broader policy issues.
   
The gentleman may proceed.
   
Mr. SHADEGG. And I will continue to say that a $15 billion cut in skilled nursing facilities is, from my perspective, a bad idea, much worse than a $101,000 cut from the Secretary's budget. And, therefore, I rise in strong support of the McHenry amendment because I don't want to see skilled nursing cut as the Democrats propose to do in their SCHIP bill.
   
I support the McHenry amendment which would cut $101,000 from the Secre tary's budget because I don't support cutting rehabilitation facilities as the Democrats would do in their SCHIP bill.
   
Indeed, I would much prefer to cut $100,000 from the Secretary's budget than to cut, as the Democrats do in their SCHIP bill, rehabilitation facilities.
   
POINT OF ORDER
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. Point of order.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman will suspend.
   
The gentleman from Illinois will state his point of order.
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. Madam Chairman, the majority has accepted the McHenry amendment and the minority continues to engage in irrelevant debate about a piece of legislation that will come up in a few days. We are discussing the Agriculture appropriations bill.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman must confine his remarks to the pending question.
 
The gentleman may proceed.
& nbsp; 
Mr. SHADEGG. As I believe I have, quite skillfully.
   
I do rise in very strong support of the McHenry amendment because I believe that cutting the Secretary's budget is a much better idea than cutting skilled nursing facilities.
   
I believe it is a much better idea than cutting long-term hospital facilities, as the Democrats do in their SCHIP bill. And I think it would be much better to cut $100,000 from the Secretary of Agriculture's administrative budget than to cut, as the Democrats do, funding for long-term care by hospitals.
   
It seems to me this is a simple debate: Where do we cut? I would much rather cut $100,000 from the budget of the Office of the Secretary than to cut $9 billion from Medicare plan B, including payments for oxygen, as the Democrats do in their SCHIP bill. It seems to me that kind of cut in their SCHIP bill is a bad idea. I would rather support the gentleman's amendment.
&nb sp; 
POINT OF ORDER
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. Point of order.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman from Illinois will state his point of order.
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. Madam Chairman, the gentleman sounds like a broken record. The majority has accepted the McHenry amendment and the minority continues to engage in irrelevant debate.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman from Illinois will state his point of order.
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. The majority has accepted the McHenry amendment, and the minority continues to engage in irrelevant debate.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. Is the gentleman making a point of order that the debate is irrelevant?
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. I am making the point of order that the debate is absolutely irrelevant.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman is correct. The gentleman from Arizona mu st confine his remarks to the pending question.
   
Mr. SHADEGG. Madam Chairman, I seek a clarification. What was the ruling of the Chair?
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The point of order is correct. The gentleman from Arizona must confine his remarks to the pending question.
   
Mr. SHADEGG. Precisely how did my remarks not----
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The pending question is the amendment by Mr. McHenry of North Carolina to the amendment by the gentleman from Georgia. That is the pending question.
   
Mr. SHADEGG. And I thank the Chairman for her ruling, and I am pleased to say that each of my points have tried to explain that I support, adamantly support the amendment by the gentleman to cut $100,000 from the Secretary's budget because I don't favor these other cuts. I don't favor cutting the funding for end-stage renal disease programs. I would much rather cut the Department of Agriculture ad ministrative budget than do as the Democrats would in their SCHIP bill, cut $3.6 billion from the end-stage renal disease program.
   
It seems to me that the amendment of the gentleman from North Carolina to cut $100,000 from the administrative budget of the Secretary is a much-preferable method to achieve the savings that we need. In each of these instances, I believe that cutting the Secretary's budget would make much more sense than cutting the Medicare program.
   
I have constituents in my district who would much rather see us cut the Ag budget than see us cut Medicare or see us cut end-stage renal disease or than see us cut oxygen therapy as is all done in the Democrats' SCHIP bill. For all of those reasons, I believe it is very important that we support the gentleman's amendment.
   
POINT OF ORDER
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. Point of order.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman fr om Illinois may state his point of order.
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. The minority continues to engage in irrelevant debate.
   
Mr. SHADEGG. There is nothing irrelevant about it.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman from Arizona will suspend.
   
Does the gentleman make a point of order that the debate is irrelevant?
   
Mr. JACKSON of Illinois. I make the point of order that the debate is irrelevant.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman is correct. The gentleman from Arizona must confine his remarks to the pending question.
   
Mr. SHADEGG. I appeal the ruling of the Chair.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The question is: Shall the decision of the Chair stand as the judgment of the Committee?
   
The question was taken; and the Acting Chairman announced that the ayes appeared to have it.
   
RECORDED VOTE    
Mr. SHADEGG. Madam Chairman, I demand a recorded vote.
   
A recorded vote was ordered.
   
The vote was taken by electronic device, and there were--ayes 220, noes 178, not voting 39

PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY
   
Mr. SHADEGG. Madam Chairman, I have a parliamentary inquiry.
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. The gentleman will state his parliamentary inquiry.
   
Mr. SHADEGG. As I understand the ruling of the Chair, it is appropriate for me to say I support the gentleman's amendment because I do not support cuts in skilled nursing facilities or cuts in rehabilitation facilities or cuts in long-term care hospitals or cuts in oxygen, or cuts in brachytherapy, or cuts in end-stage renal disease or cuts in Medicare Advantage; but that I cannot say which appear in their SCHIP bill. Is that correct?
   
The Acting CHAIRMAN. It is permissible to identify as preferable an alternative object for funding. It is not permissible to dwell on the merits of that alternative object.
   
The gentleman may proceed.
   
Mr. SHADEGG. I thank you very much for your ruling.
   
Madam Chairman, I do rise in support of the gentleman's amendment. I believe that we have to find the funding necessary for essential government programs and that cutting the Secretary of Agriculture is much better than cutting such programs as skilled nursing facilities, rehabilitation facilities, long-term care hospitals, oxygen under Medicare, brachytherapy under Medicare, end-stage renal disease funding under Medicare or Medicare Advantage.
   
For those reasons, I rise in strong support of the gentleman's amendment.
   
Madam Chairman, I yield back the balance of my time.

Pedro and Carlos - Go Back to Mexico

Pedro and Carlos are panhandling in Los Angeles. Pedro drives a Lexus SUV, lives in a mortgage-free house and has a lot of money to spend.  Carlos only brings in 2 to 3 dollars a day.

Carlos asks Pedro how he can bring home a suitcase full of $10.00 bills every day.

Pedro says, "Look at your sign. It reads: "I have no work, a wife and 6 kids to support. Look at *my* sign."

Carlos looks at Pedro's sign. It reads: "I only need another $10.00 to move back to Mexico for good."

Dear President Bush & Congress: It's the Border, STUPID!

The past few weeks has been an enormous wake up call to Americans everywhere.  As a result of the immigration amnesty battle in Washington, Americans now realize that politicians cannot be trusted...PERIOD.  If we take our eyes off them even for a second, the Kennedy crowd starts looking for ways to screw hard-working Americans.  And even more disturbing, our so-called "Conservative" Senators jumped right on the immigration bandwagon along with the Dumbocrats.

Here's a link to the names, addresses, phone numbers and fax numbers of several US Senators.  These Senators NEED to hear from you - tell them what you think about their 'Shamnesty' bill.

Below is the letter I faxed to most of them (I also faxed a second page containing only a huge "A" for Amnesty!)  I feel so much better now...you should try it!

Dear Senator [insert your traitor Senator's name here],

If you support the current immigration bill:

1.  You are voting for Amnesty.  Spin it anyway you wish, but the American people are not stupid and Americans, more than two-thirds of whom oppose amnesty, will remember you as part of the A-gang. (“A” is for Amnesty)

2.  While even legalized ‘illegals’ will NOT be eligible to vote for many years, angry Americans WILL BE VOTING AGAINST Amnesty supporters in huge numbers.  All those Americans who called, emailed and faxed your office will be voicing their discontent in the form of a vote for many elections to come.

3.  Ask Senator Kennedy how many FAILED AMNESTY bills he’s helped author to date.  With his track record on amnesty, he shouldn’t even be allowed in the room while an immigration bill is being written. 

4.  Also please ask Senator Kennedy how much our taxes will have to go up to pay for this and how much social security and medicare benefits will have to decrease.  Certainly a responsible politician would NOT propose a bill that will cost Americans TRILLIONS of dollars without first knowing where the money’s coming from.  But wait, nobody thought of that...of course, why worry about how much of OTHER PEOPLE’S MONEY YOU’RE SPENDING?  Americans struggling to make ends meet can’t go shopping without making sure we have money in the bank first.  Yet Congress wants to import tens of millions of welfare recipients without giving any thought to how they will pay for it because it’s NOT THEIR MONEY.
 
5.  WHERE’S THE FENCE that was already approved?  There isn’t one yet - that’s exactly  why Americans do NOT believe you will secure the border even with amnesty.  We are tired of being LIED TO...PROVE YOU CAN & WILL SECURE THE BORDER, and maybe Americans will be willing to swallow the amnesty pill.  But NOT until AFTER the border is PROVEN to be secured because we’ve been tricked into amnesty before.

6.  If you’re lucky enough to be one of the very few who supports amnesty and doesn’t get voted out of office next time you’re up for re-election, have you thought about what you’ll tell your constituents NEXT time the government considers amnesty for the millions of illegals who are encouraged by the passage of this Amnesty bill to illegally cross our still unsecured border in the future?

7.  Time will prove this amnesty bill to be a lie.  Time will prove that the government still has no intention of securing the border.  All who support this bill will be considered liars and traitors by their constituents...actually, I think sell-out is the most common term I’ve heard used.  Perhaps you too will feel betrayed by your colleagues who convinced you that the border REALLY will be secured this time if you just give amnesty first.  Yet still, you’ll be looking for a new job.

But you still have a chance to do the right thing... Don’t be naive - OPPOSE AMNESTY or look for a new job.  SECURE OUR BORDERS NOW, then we’ll talk about amnesty.

Senate Immigration Bill 1639 - List of Amnesty & Cloture Voting Traitors

A vote for cloture is a vote for amnesty.

Here's a list of Senators (Republican & Dumbocrat) who betrayed their constituents by voting for cloture amnesty.

Senators McCain & Kyl - Shame on You for Betraying Arizonans

Although I've voted for both Senator John McCain and Senator Jon Kyl more than once, I no longer consider either of them to be my representatives. The recent immigration fiasco clearly shows they both went to Washington to represent their own agendas, and have no interest in what their constituents want.  As a result, the AZ GOP has been in pure damage control mode for several weeks, trying to defend Jon Kyl's unexpected and unjustifiable betrayal. The AZ GOP obviously realizes that John McCain's political career is over, as they haven't even tried to stick up for him.  Since he has exactly ZERO chance at the Presidential nomination, why doesn't he just go back to Washington and do the job he was elected to do. Over the past 6 months or so, he hasn't even bothered to show up for many important Senate votes, yet he's asking us for a promotion to President? He won't even be re-elected to his Senate seat now.  Arizona has had enough of John McCain.  In fact, America is pretty much fed up with Washington...period.  Our politicians are soooooooooo out of touch with American values it's truly shameful.  Maybe it's something in the D.C. water?

Anyway, up until a couple months ago, I supported Jon Kyl.  I truly believed he was better than most of the other talking heads in Washington.  But I thought wrong...he's clearly ONE OF THEM.  Now that I've realized that, I removed his sticker from my car and mailed it back to him with the short note below (click image below to enlarge)...

Jesse Jackson & Al Sharpton Joke

Here's my favorite email of the week...Enjoy!

The Reverends Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton, while visiting a primary school class, found themselves in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings.

The teacher asked both men if they would like to lead the discussion of the word "tragedy". So the illustrious Rev. Jackson asks the class for an example of a "tragedy".

One little boy stood up and offered: "If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the field and a runaway tractor comes along and knocks him dead, that would be a tragedy."

No," says the Great Jesse Jackson, "that would be an accident."

A little girl raised her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy"

I'm afraid not," explains the exalted Reverend Al. "That's what we would call a great loss." The room goes silent. No other children volunteer.

Reverend Al searches the room. "Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?"

Finally at the back of the room little Johnny raises his hand. In a stern voice he says: "If a plane carrying the Reverends Jackson and Sharpton were struck by a missile and blown to smithereens that would be a tragedy."

Fantastic!" exclaims Jackson and Sharpton, "That's right. And can you tell me why that would be a tragedy?"

"Well," says little Johnny, "because it sure as hell wouldn't be a great loss, and it probably wouldn't be an accident either!"

Three Thoughts - Email of the Week

Here's an email that I received this week...

(1) Zero Gravity:
When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ball-point pens would not work in zero gravity.  To combat this problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion developing a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside-down, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to over 300 C.

The Russians used a pencil.  Your taxes are due again--enjoy paying them.

(2) Our Constitution:
"They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq.  Why don't we just give them ours?  It was written by a lot of really smart guys, and it's worked for over 200 years.  And, we're not using it anymore."
       
(3) Ten Commandments:
The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments in a Courthouse is that you cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery" and "Thou Shalt Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians ... It creates a hostile work environment.

It's a Hillary Clinton - Left Wing Conspiracy!

Here's another Hillary joke I received in an email...I think I could read Hillary jokes all day!

Hillary Clinton goes to a primary school to talk about the world.  After her talk, she offers question time.  One little boy puts up his hand, and the Senator asks him what his name is.

"Kenny," came the reply.

"And what is your question, Kenny?"

"I have three questions, Ma-am:

• First - whatever happened to your medical health care plan?
• Second - why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?
• And third - whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?"

..Just then the bell rings for recess.  Hillary Clinton informs the kiddies that they will continue after recess.  When they resume Hillary says, "Okay where were we?  Oh, that's right, question time.  Who has a question?" This time a different little boy puts his hand up; Hillary points him out and asks him what his name is.

"Lonnie," he said.

"And what is your question?"

"I have five questions:

• First - whatever happened to your medical health care plan?
• Second - why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?
• Third - whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?
• Fourth - why did the recess bell go off 20 minutes early?
• And fifth - what happened to Kenny?"

Harsh Immigration Policy is Okay by Mexico?

Here's an email I received this past week.  I can't say the information in this email is 100% true because I didn't verify it, but it certainly wouldn't surprise me if some or all of it was true.  But no worries...if any part of it's even slightly inaccurate, I'll get nasty comments from the pro-illegals crowd!

"HARSH, YOU SAY??

1.     There will be no special bilingual programs in the schools, no special ballots for elections, and all government business will be conducted in our language.

2.     Foreigners will NOT have the right to vote, no matter how long they are here.

3.     Foreigners will NEVER be able to hold political office.

4.     Foreigners will not be a burden to the taxpayers. No welfare, no food stamps, no health care, nor any other government assistance programs.

5.     Foreigners can invest in this country, but it must be an amount equal to 40,000 times the daily minimum wage.

6.     If foreigners do come and want to buy land that will be okay, BUT options will be restricted. You are not allowed to own waterfront property. That property is reserved for citizens naturally born into this country.

7.     Foreigners may not protest; no demonstrations, no waving a foreign flag, no political organizing, no "bad-mouthing" our president or his policies.  If you do you will be sent home.

8.     If you do come to this country illegally, you will be hunted down and sent straight to jail.

Harsh, you say?

The above laws happen to be the immigration laws of MEXICO!"

U.S. Border Patrol Agents Go to Prison for Apprehending Illegal Alien Drug Smuggler at Border

The email below is definitely the most important email I received all week.  It may seem like this couldn't possibly happen in America, but it's true and it did happen.  Please visit the link at the bottom and help these two agents who I consider to be heroes.

Two U.S. Border Patrol Agents have been sentenced to decade long prison terms for apprehending an illegal alien at our border!

Almost as outrageous is that the illegal alien drug smuggler, who was given immunity for testifying against the agents is now suing the U.S. for $5 million, claiming he was permanently injured!

I have just signed a petition calling for the President to pardon these two Border Agents and I’m asking you to join with me by clicking below for the full story and the petition:

Politically Correct Holiday Greetings

As usual, I've had very little time to post lately.  But I at least need to say Happy Holidays to my friends in the blogosphere.  So I'm killing 2 birds with one stone by using this one post as both my holiday message and my favorite email of the week!  In the spirit of political correctness, here it is:

For My Democratic Friends:

Please accept with no obligation, implied or implicit, our best wishes
for an environmentally conscious, socially responsible, low-stress,
non-addictive, gender-neutral celebration of the winter solstice holiday,
practiced within the most enjoyable traditions of the religious persuasion
of your choice, or secular practices of your choice, with respect for the
religious/secular persuasion and/or traditions of others, or their choice
not to observe religious or secular traditions at all.

We also wish you a fiscally successful, personally fulfilling and
medically uncomplicated recognition of the generally accepted
calendar year 2007, but not without due respect for the calendars of
choice of other cultures.

For My Republican Friends:

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!

How to Become Illegal

Sorry I've been really busy lately and haven't posted.  Here's my favorite email of the week!

"Dear Senators Kennedy & Kerry,

As a citizen of Massachusetts and excellent customer of the Internal Revenue Service, I am writing to ask for your assistance. I have contacted the Department of Homeland Security in an effort to determine the process for becoming an illegal alien and they referred me to you.

My primary reason for wishing to change my status from U.S. Citizen to illegal alien stems from the bill, which was recently passed by the Senate. If my understanding of this bill's provisions is accurate, as an illegal alien who has been in the United States for five years, all I need to do to become a citizen is to pay a $2,000 fine and income taxes for three of the last five years.  I know a good deal when I see one and I am anxious to get the process started before everyone figures it out.

Simply put, those of us who have been here legally have had to pay taxes every year -- so I'm excited about the prospect of avoiding two years of taxes in return for paying a $2,000 fine.  Is there any way that I can apply to be illegal retroactively?  This would yield an excellent result for my family and me because we paid heavy taxes in 2004 and 2005.

Additionally, as an illegal alien I could begin using the local emergency room as my primary health care provider.  Once I have stopped paying premiums for medical insurance, my accountant figures I could save almost $10,000 a year.  Another benefit in gaining illegal status would be that my daughter would receive preferential treatment relative to her law school applications, as well as "in-state" tuition rates for many colleges throughout the United States for my son.

Lastly, I understand that illegal status would relieve me of the burden of renewing my driver's license and making those burdensome car insurance premiums. This is very important to me given that I still have college age children driving my car.

If you would provide me with an outline of the process to become illegal (retroactively if possible) and copies of the necessary forms, I would be most appreciative. Thank you for your assistance.

Your Loyal Constituent,

Joe Martin
(Soon to be Jose Martinez)"

Cheney Hunting Accident - Email of the Week

This may be a little outdated, but it's still really funny.  So I've made it my email of the week:

WASHINGTON, D.C. - A white house source stated that Congress is considering awarding Vice-President Dick Cheney the Medal of Freedom, the national highest civilian commendation, for his act of bravery in shooting an attorney.

The source was quoted to say " All Americans have wanted to shoot a lawyer at one time or another and Cheney actually had the balls to do it".

In a related story, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, which issues hunting licenses, said that it will start requiring hunters, wishing to bag a lawyer, to have the new "lawyer's stamp" on their hunting license. 

Currently Texas hunters are required to carry stamps for hunting birds, deer, and bear, at a cost of $7 annually.  The new "lawyers stamp" will cost $100, but  open season will be all year long.

The department further stated that although the "lawyers stamp" comes at hefty price, sales have been brisk and it is believed it will generate annual revenues in excess of $3 billion dollars the first year. 

Other states are considering similar hunting license stamps.

President Bush Meets Iranian President

This email is great...enjoy!

The Iranian Ambassador to the UN had just finished giving a speech, and walked out into the lobby where he met President Bush.   They shook hands, and as they walked the Iranian said, "You know, I have just one question about what I have seen in America.

President Bush said, "Well, anything I can do to help you, I will."

The Iranian whispered "My son watches this show 'Star Trek' and in it there is Chekhov who is Russian, Scotty who is Scottish, and Sulu who is Chinese, but no Arabs. My son is very upset and doesn't understand why there aren't any Iranians on Star Trek."

President Bush laughed, leaned toward the Iranian ambassador, and whispered back, "It's because it takes place in the future."

ACLU - Anti-God, Anti-Soldier & Anti-American

This came to me in an email - the ACLU truly has no shame...

If you look closely at the picture above, you will note that all the Marines pictured are bowing their heads. That's because they're praying.

This incident took place at a recent ceremony honoring the birthday of the corps, and it has the ACLU up in arms. "These are federal employees," says Lucius Traveler, a spokesman for the ACLU, "on federal property and on federal time. For them to pray is clearly an establishment of religion, and we must nip this in the bud immediately."

When asked about the ACLU's charges, Colonel Jack Fessender, speaking for the Commandant of the Corps said (cleaned up a bit), "Screw the ACLU." GOD Bless Our Warriors, Send the ACLU to France.

Please send this to people you know so everyone will know how stupid the ACLU is Getting in trying to remove GOD from everything and every place in America. May God Bless America, One Nation Under GOD!

What's wrong with the picture?  ABSOLUTELY NOTHING... AMEN!

Soldier's Prayer:
"Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. I ask this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen."

Prayer Request: When you receive this, please stop for a moment and say a prayer for our troops around the world.

The Dipsticks Forgot to Check the Oil

Here's a real simple explanation as to how we could become short on oil :)  It is my favorite email this week!

A lot of folks can't understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in our country.  Well, there's a very simple answer.  Nobody bothered to check the oil.  We just didn't know we were getting low.  The reason for that is purely geographical.  Our OIL is located in:

• Alaska
• California
• Coastal Florida
• Coastal Louisiana
• Kansas
• Oklahoma
• Pennsylvania
• Texas

BUT our DIPSTICKS are located in Washington D.C. !! 

As always, this was sent to me in an email, so ORIGINAL SOURCE UNKNOWN!

How Old Is Grandpa?

Here is my favorite Email of the Week:

How old is Grandpa???

Stay with this -- the answer is at the end.  It will blow you away.

One evening a grandson was talking to his grandfather about current events.
The grandson asked his grandfather what he thought about the shootings at schools, the computer age, and just things in general.

The Grandfather replied, "Well, let me think a minute, I was born before:

• television
• penicillin
• polio shots
• frozen foods
• Xerox
• contact lenses
• Frisbees
• the pill

There were no:

• credit cards
• laser beams
• ball-point pens

Man had not invented:

• pantyhose
• air conditioners
• dishwashers
• clothes dryers
• the clothes were hung out to dry in the fresh air
• man hadn't yet walked on the moon

Your Grandmother and I got married first, . . . and then lived together. 

Every family had a father and a mother.

Until I was 25, I called every man older than me, "Sir".
And after I turned 25, I still called policemen and every man with a title, "Sir."

We were before gay-rights, computer- dating, dual careers, daycare centers, and group therapy.

Our lives were governed by the Ten Commandments, good judgment, and common sense. 

We were taught to know the difference between right and wrong and to stand up and take responsibility for our actions.

Serving your country was a privilege; living in this country was a bigger privilege.

We thought fast food was what people ate during Lent. 

Having a meaningful relationship meant getting along with your cousins. 

Draft dodgers were people who closed their front doors when the evening breeze started. 

Time-sharing meant time the family spent together in the evenings and weekends-not purchasing condominiums.

We never heard of FM radios, tape decks, CDs, electric typewriters, yogurt, or guys wearing earrings. 

We listened to the Big Bands, Jack Benny, and the President's speeches on our radios. 

And I don't ever remember any kid blowing his brains out listening to Tommy Dorsey. 

If you saw anything with 'Made in Japan ' on it, it was junk. 

The term 'making out' referred to how you did on your school exam. 

Pizza Hut, McDonald's, and instant coffee were unheard of.

We had 5 &10-cent stores where you could actually buy things for 5 and 10 cents.

Ice-cream cones, phone calls, rides on a streetcar, and a Pepsi were all a nickel.

And if you didn't want to splurge, you could spend your nickel on enough stamps to mail 1 letter and 2 postcards.

You could buy a new Chevy Coupe for $600, . . . but who could afford one?
Too bad, because gas was 11 cents a gallon. 

In my day:

• "grass" was mowed,
• "coke" was a cold drink
• "pot" was something your mother cooked in
• "rock music" was your grandmother's lullaby
• "Aids" were helpers in the Principal's office
• " chip" meant a piece of wood
• "hardware" was found in a hardware store
• "software" wasn't even a word.

And we were the last generation to actually believe that a lady needed a husband to have a baby. No wonder people call us "old and confused" and say there is a generation gap... and how old do you think I am?

I bet you have this old man in mind...you are in for a shock!

Read on to see -- pretty scary if you think about it and pretty sad at the same time.      

    .....

         ......

This man would be only 59 years old!

I don't know why, but for some reason I laugh every time I hear them say on the news, "...the man that Dick Cheney shot...".  I know, it's awful to laugh at someone getting shot, and I totally feel for Harry Whittington.  But it just sounds too funny for some reason!

Anyway, with that in mind...here is my favorite email of the week!   

                   

The title of this email was, "Democrats & Republicans Can Be Friends!".
