Leave It To An Aussie!
John Howard, unlike many American politico, says what needs to be said. Here is his words I recieved via e-mail. To bad us Yanks can't find a president with some "sack."
John Howard:Muslims who want to live under Islamic Shari
law were told on Wednesday to get out of
Australia , as the government targeted radicals
in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.
Separately, Howard angered some Australian
Muslims on Wednesday by saying he
supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS NOT AUSTRALIANS,MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotismby the majority of Australians'.
'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victoriesby millions of men an d women who have sought freedom'. 'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society . Learn the language!'
'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriateto display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'
'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony andpeaceful enjoyment with us.'
'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunityto enjoy all this. But once you are donecomplaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christianbeliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE!'
'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. Wedidn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOUaccepted.'

Who's Paying For Mama Robinson's Rent?
So Barry's mama in-law is moving in to help care for the children and we the taxpayer is on the hook for the rent and meals. It seems to me it was not long ago Mrs. Palin was taking shots from the lefty ladies about not caring for here kids as she was out looking for a job. Oh, that's right, her hubby did the job! Barry's blunders are already starting and the One has not even started his new job yet.

WSJ: Obama Breaks Pledge on Inauguration Donations
Friday, January 9, 2009 12:14 PM
By: Jim Meyers Article Font Size
A full 90 percent of donations to fund Barack Obama’s Jan. 20 inauguration have come from well-heeled fundraisers — including Wall Street executives whose companies have received federal bailout money.
A total of 207 fundraisers have collected $24.8 million of the $27.3 million in donations disclosed by Obama through Thursday, according to an analysis by Public Citizen commissioned by The Wall Street Journal.
Slightly more than 2,000 donors accounted for the $27.3 million raised, but 378 of those people each contributed the maximum $50,000 allowed by Obama, raising almost 70 percent of the total, or $18.9 million, the analysis found.
Wall Street employees have been the largest single source of private donations, and many of the contributions have been channeled through financial-services executives who have put together bundles of donations worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.
“The preponderance of large donors and the fact that so many come from an industry receiving government handouts comes as the president-elect has sought to keep his inauguration free of special interests,” The Journal observed.
Bundlers from the financial sector include executives from Citigroup Inc. and Goldman Sachs Group Inc., two firms that have accepted billions of dollars each in bailout money from the federal government.
Obama’s presidential campaign smashed all previous fundraising records, raking in more than an astounding $650 million from some 3 million donors.

Author: Grail GuardianComment:
One in the same, Uppity. Really instills confidence, doesn't it? This guy doesn't know where his illegal alien aunt got off to (while he was a sitting US Senator sworn to uphold the Constitution), didn't know his preacher of 20 years was spewing anti-American bile, didn't know Bill Ayers was a domestic terrorist, didn't know Blagojevich was tainted, didn't know his Palestinian buddies were sending him illegal campaign contributions, didn't know his Chief of Staff appointee was negotiating the sale of his former Senate seat, didn't know Tony Rezko was a crook - for crying out loud! When was the last time someone that knows so little and has so little control of his surroundings was elected President of the United States?

Pot Harms The Pothead.....Dude!
Don't let the ganja crew fool you, pot is a gateway drug and pot should not be legalized. Now, I would be open to maybe locking up the dealers and allowing a person to be a user. In other words, grow your own and don't commit any crimes while under the influence and everything will be fine!
http://www.marijuana-detox.com/m-dangers.htm
Because of the drug's effects on perceptions and reaction time, users could be involved in auto crashes. Drug users also may become involved in risky sexual behavior. There is a strong link between drug use and unsafe sex and the spread of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
Under the influence of marijuana, students may find it hard to study and learn. Young athletes could find their performance is off; timing, movements, and coordination are all affected by THC.

5 Of These Guy Belong Together, One Of These Guys Stands Alone!
To look at this picture is to see that America's best and brightest don't usually win the oval office. Not since Ronald Reagan have we had a real man who put America's best interest first. He did not care about his poll numbers. He never soiled an interns dress. He never supported Hugo Chavez. He never broke a promise of no new taxes. He never pandered to the House of Saud.
And he never hung around socialist, terrorist, and anti Semites. And he could produce a birth certificate and he never said his mom was a typical "white" woman
He was not always perfect, but he was consistent and honest and a great Christian man.

Turn Me Loose And Set Me Free
Yes, that is part of a Merle Haggard song..."Somewhere in the middle of Montana." Well, for me, anywhere that is not cold, has a place to park a trailer for me and my dogs, a small church, and a friendly burger and suds joint, and I am there! I am tired of the daily grind of my full time job, though the part time one is great. I am really insanely tired of bills and debt. If anyone knows of a ranch or farm that needs a hard working college grad, who can work as hard with the muscle as well as the brain; give me a shout. Oh, I forgot; a golf course is a must......

So Long Christmas Vacation
And hello to work again! Vacation goes by faster now that I work at a school than it did when I attended it. I had plans to get a lot of chores done around the ol' abode but, as usual, I lagged. So I now have another 80 plus work days to go before summer vacation. And, as usual, I will make a lot of plans and probably not get much done other than a tan and a few bbq's in the backyard.

Diversity Immigrant Visa Program: Invitation To Terrorist?
You bet it is and what a joke of a program. Why is this even needed? And of course, our enemies would never use a program like this to their advantage. In a time of war, this program should not be allowed. If this was 1943, I guess this program would allow Japanese and German in because they were under represented.
http://www.cnsnews.com/public/content/article.aspx?RsrcID=41385
In 2007, the Government Accountability Office issued a report indicating that nearly 9,800 aliens from state sponsors of terrorism have received diversity visas since 2000.
The report, however, indicated that the diversity visa lottery program was "susceptible to fraud" and was a way for terrorists to enter the country – though no incidences have yet been reported.

George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, James Madison, Patrick Henry, Benjamin Franklin. Nearly every schoolchild recognizes them as the Founding Fathers — signers of the Declaration of Independence, framers of the Constitution, heroes of the Revolutionary War.
There were a great many more Founding Fathers, however, even if their names are not so familiar as the above. Several of those lesser-known men who played key roles in the creation of the United States of America were Catholics. Chief among them were three members of the Carroll family of Maryland: Charles Carroll, the only Catholic signer of the Declaration of Independence; his cousin Daniel Carroll; and Daniel Carroll's brother John Carroll, who became America's first Catholic bishop.
Charles Carroll of Carrollton (1737-1832) was the most illustrious and best-known of the Carrolls.
