WHERE'S THE MONEY FROM THE FIRST "STIMULUS"?

In the infamous words from the movie
"Jerry McGuire", "show me the money"!
People in Washington, D.C. are starting to talk
about a "second stimulus plan", when no one
seems to know what happened to the funds from
the first stimulus!? ARE YOU KIDDING?
Our national debt is now over a TRILLION $s!
Can you cipher that? Larger than it's ever been!
How has the stimulus plan helped?
HAS THE STIMULUS PLAN HELPED ANYBODY
other than those who "took the money and ran"
straight to bankruptcy court? How many jobs
have been created? Obama promised 3 million
new jobs, remember? Where are they?
People that I talk to are disgusted, angry, and
confused, and others are so perplexed that they
don't want to talk about it, or they don't know
what to say. I'M ANGRY!! Aren't you?
The staggering figure of 787 BILLION DOLLARS
is where? Who or what has it helped? How much
of it has been doled out? I've heard only 10 %
of it went "anywhere", wherever that is.
If the $250 checks that some of who are on
Social Security and/or who filed tax returns for
last year were a part of the "stimulus", then
WHERE, OH WHERE IS THE OTHER
786 BILLION, figuring that 200 million people
got those checks?
Obama has no problems taking "junkets" with
his family to various places around the world!
Congressmen and women are still going out on
"fact-finding missions" with your and my money!
Do you remember another president taking his
family out on "dates" and "vacations" with the
money that could be helping the jobless, the
sick, the veterans who have been physically
and emotionaly wounded, and even small
businesses to survive or start up?
THERE IS NO COMPASSION IN D.C.!
THERE IS NO CONSCIENCE IN D.C.!
Let's lean on our "career politicians" to have
some sanity and good sense, and cut out all
the "pork" in our government, when millions
of our citizens are hurting - NEEDING THE
STIMULUS MONEY NOW!!
Please call or write now - I'll help you to get
the phone numbers and addresses, many of
which I have.
GOD HELP AMERICA!

Say "Goodbye", America!

It's happening daily, right before our eyes and
ears - our precious country is being decimated
little by little, piece by piece, freedom by freedom.
Subtly and gradually, those who sit in seats of
power are changing everything about our once-
great nation, and they won't stop until all we
are is a memory.
The recent "accord" between Obama and
Medvedev of Russia only robs us of the needed
power to protect ourselves from the upstart
third-world dictators and madmen who are
obsessed with destroying us. That's only a
small part of the "puzzle" that many of us
fail or refuse to see. These subsersives won't
stop until we are annihilated or made slaves
of their demonic regime(s).
Weaken our defenses, stretch our military
beyond its proper capabilities, apologize to
our self-proclaimed enemies of Arab and
Muslim governments, disarm our citizens,
take over our manufacturing facilities, assume
control of the financial industry, control the
internet, limit the amount of energy each
person or family unit uses, "bug" our
communications, and stifle free speech and
dissent.
Sound familiar? Sound like America?
Never.
I'm convinced in my heart and mind that the
forces behind the actions being taken both
nationally and globally are meant to bring
about the demise (death) of our country.
The current government wants total control!
Sound familiar? Sound like America?
Never.
But the odds are against us. IF WE DON'T
SOON BEGIN TO STAND UP, SPEAK UP,
AND VOTE OUR CONSCIENCES, we will be
"accessories to the crime" of the ages - the
death of America!
We know we can't trust Russia. They haven't
changed from the same people who have broken
every treaty we've ever signed with them. Duh!
And what do we do when we suddenly find
ourselves attacked from various directions, as well
as the attacks that we are suffering within?
LISTEN! Hear the voices of Glenn Beck, Michael
Savage, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Newt
Gingrich, Bill O'Reilly, and others who are, like
modern-day Paul Reveres, "sounding the alarm"!!
Learn what's happening in the House of Repre-
sentatives, the Senate, the Oval Office, the
Cabinet. Notice the innuendos. Read between
the lines and interpret the mean-spirited,
hell-bent directions we're being taken into.
Call or write your legislators. Call or write the
White House. I've done so often, and will continue.
HOPEFULLY, IT'S NOT TOO LATE!!
If Obama leaves enough of our country at
the end of his first term, WE PATRIOTS
MUST RISE AND REGAIN OUR PRIDE
OUR VALUES, AND OUR UNITED STATES
OF AMERICA!!

GIVING PROPER HONOR TO OUR MILITARY

It's "Freedom Day", as I like to label it, and we
who are still free owe a continuing debt to every
woman and man who has served in any capacity
in our military's ranks.
Having only served in "the Lord's army", I can
only imagine the privations and costs that these
true American patriots endure to maintain and
preserve the quality of life that I fear you and I
take for granted too often.
For example, to have to be away from one's
loved ones, both family and friends, for an extended
period of time must take an emotional toll on our
precious guardians! To be away for so long, not
seeing, hearing, touching those who we value and
love most has got to be traumatic. Those of us
who have never endured such stress need to pray for
and support our troops with our letters and gifts.
It doesn't matter where they are, or what their
MOS (job description) is, they have surrendered
the daily privileges that you and I take for granted,
namely sleeping in our own beds, having a choice
of breakfasts, going to school or work or club,
watching our favorite TV shows, reading the
newspapers or magazines that we prefer, etc.
AT WHAT COST FREEDOM?
Those precious souls that are on the front lines
of battle face even more sacrifices than those
listed above. Fearing injury or loss of their lives
daily! Obeying orders that they may not like
or understand or agree with. Being asked and
expected to take the lives of other human beings
that may or may not be their (our) enemies!
Seeing their comrades suffer the stress of the
war, not only from physical harm, but the
invisible emotional damage that will affect them
for their entire lives, and that has caused many
(thousands we've been told) to take their own
lives.
OH, THE HELL OF WAR!
Heat. Dirt. Sand. Sweat. Limited foods. Cots
or bunks to sleep on, if indeed they can sleep.
Noise of artillery and rifle fire. Enemies all
about, with the closest "friends" being your
fellow-soldier who lives in daily fear just as you
do! Limited contact with home and the rest of
the world. Uncertainty about your next day,
hour, minute, assignment! Wearing clothes
longer than you want to, shaving less often than
you've been used to, bathing and applying
body scents and deodorants infrequently.
AND WE TAKE THEM FOR GRANTED!
We must honor them. We must lift them up
in prayer daily! We must show them respect
when we pass them on the street or sit near
them in a public or private place! We should
send letters, cards, emails, and gifts as the
occasion presents itself. Phone calls and
pictures must help if we get the chance to
do so.
OUR MILITARY HAVE SAVED US TO
CELEBRATE ANOTHER "FREEDOM DAY"!
America is a great nation, and has been since
its inception. Let's hope, fight, and pray that
she stays GREAT! In spite of problems within
and troubles without, we still have a large
majority of the populace that loves its country,
and who do not want us to lose those precious
rights and blessings that we've enjoyed for
233 years!
Freedom of speech! Freedom of assembly!
Freedom of worship! Freedom to bear arms!
Freedom to vote! Freedom of ownership!
EVERY GOD-GIVEN FREEDOM THAT HAS
BEEN OURS IS BEING THREATENED, AND
IT'S FOR THOSE FREEDOMS THAT OUR
GREAT ARMED FORCES HAVE FOUGHT
AND DIED FOR OVER TWO CENTURIES!
In all of our celebrating and commemorating,
with our picnics, family get-togethers,
fireworks and concerts, etc., let every one of
us take moments to individually and collectively
GIVE THANKS, HONOR, AND PRAY FOR
EVERY MEMBER OF OUR MILITARY!
God continue to bless America!
