TO SOME IT'S APRIL FOOLS DAY (P)
It was six years ago today that I met my beloved Tammie... It was six years ago today that my life changed for ever and for the better...
The last thing I'm going to do is fill you in on all the details, but I will say that if anyone out there doesn't think that in this world, there isn't someone for everyone, I'm here to disagree with you... If this crazy old fart can find true love, anyone can...
So please allow me this self indulgent moment while I tell my beloved Tammie, "I LOVE YOU" ... (and that's no joke)

THE SHIRT SAYS IT ALL (P)
This is not some shameless attempt at self promotion, but merely what I hope will become a rallying cry for our fight to regain what is being stolen from us every day under the present administration...
I'm a proud member of the S.W. Florida 9/12 Project and feel that through organizations like this, we can win this fight...
Please click on the link below to see what I'm referring to... You can click on photos at the top to see several events that have taken place, even our sign waving yesterday in Cape Coral...
http://www.meetup.com/The-SWFL-9-12Project-Meetup-Group/
As I eluded to in my previous post, this fight for our freedom is not a sprint, but a marathon, with the winning prize being that you get to keep fighting as there will always be those that would try to deny you of you rights as an American...

WHO MOVED MY GOVERNMENT CHEESE? (P)
This is my adaptation of the #1 Best Selling book "Who Moved My Cheeses?" by Spencer Johnson, M.D....
In my adaptation, cheese is an obvious metaphor for entitlement programs... The story revolves around two Marxist, "Barack" and "Nancy" and two Kool-Aide Drinkers, "Lazy" and "No Count"...
Barack is good at "sniffing out or creating cheese" and Nancy is good at "implementing the cheese"... Lazy prefers to cut the cheese, while No Count prefers to use the word "change" when referring to his cheese...
One day Barack, Nancy, Lazy and No Count, find a huge mound of cheese... Lazy and No Count decide that this mound of cheese is so large they never have to think about finding more... They get comfortable and settle down, and are caught by surprise when one day their cheese is gone... Barack and Nancy are ready for this and get back to creating more cheese as they know that this is the only way to keep Lazy and No Count enslaved because cheese is all they know... Lazy and No Count feel that this is wrong, for surely they are worthy of cheese... Lazy screams "It's not fair" insisting that someone put his cheese back... No Count finally decides to venture out to look for cheese, perhaps Barack and Nancy have found their cheese...
Barack and Nancy felt that the only way to make sure that Lazy, No Count and the rest of the Kool-Aide Drinkers always have cheese is to steel from those who refused the "Government Cheese" choosing to work hard, buy cows and make their own "Private Cheese"... There plan was to have the "Government" take over the "Private" cheese makers so they could redistribute the cheese... That way everyone had the same amount of cheese, as only the "Government" could effectively insure that the cheese was shared by all, Kool-Aide Drinkers and Hard Workers alike...
What Barack and Nancy didn't count on was the resolve of the Hard Workers... Soon the Hard Workers joined together and formed the "Wine Party" as they needed to show Barack, Nancy, Lazy, No Count and the rest of the Kool-Aide Drinkers that their "Cheese" was theirs and that if they could work for their "Cheese", the rest of the cheese eaters could as well...
The End
The moral to the story... "Don't whine when someone moves your "Government Cheese"

Where Do We Find A President Like This? (L)
This was an email sent to me by our older brother.
Thanks Bro!
Prime Minister Kevin Rudd - Australia
Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia 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 patriotism by the majority of Australians."
"This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and 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 appropriate to 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 and peaceful enjoyment with us."
"This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, 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. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted."

I SURE AS HELL COULDN'T HAVE SAID IT BETTER (P)
Hyphenated American said...
I've posted this on my blog today. Sorry for the style, English is my second language.
I want my country back!
It seems like the ultra-liberals have been able to bribe and coerce enough congress-scumbags to pass the Obamacare. And as I said before, there would be hell to pay for this monstrosity. Obamacare is the very definition of unlimited government - the threat of which was forewarned by the Founding Fathers more than two centuries ago. The federal government, which is up to its neck in debt and unfunded liabilities, decided to launch the biggest entitlement of all times – the medical care for all. The spending on this new entitlement will surely dwarf many if not most of Federal programs and will make the bankruptcy of federal and state governments inevitable. The time of reckoning is at hand, brothers and sisters. Obamacare is the last breath of the liberal order – and it’s time to take back America from the party of thieves and looters.
All patriots of this nation must stand together and fight back. United we will win! There is no blue or red America anymore – there are only those that believe in America the beautiful, America the free, America the shining city on the hill – and those that believe in welfare socialism and government tyranny. Today, we fight not only for our personal well-being – but for the dignity and honor of this country, for the right to look into the eyes of our children and say – we defended this nation from the perils of socialism. In November 2010, we will answer the crucial questions of our times - are American people worthy of the efforts of the Founding Fathers? Will American people have to right to proudly say “We are Americans” – or they will forever live in infamy and indignity of welfare socialism?
I am glad that the Democratic Party passed the Rubicon. From now on, there is no coming back for the liberal elites, no talks of compromise and middle-ground. Today, it is abundantly clear that we either will live in Obama's America or America that our Founding Father envisioned. You cannot have both.
The November elections will be the most important elections in our lifetime. If you don’t vote for America in November – you don’t deserve to be called an American.
Written by a Russian immigrant who loves America and who loves freedom.

MARCH 21, 2010 A DATE WHICH WILL LIVE IN INFAMY (P)
LADIES and GENTLEMEN, WE ARE AT WAR!!!
There is only one way to defeat the enemy that is poised to destroy our country... You, you, you, and yes even you, need to get off your ASS and take to the streets... This country would never have been, had the colonists sat back on their laurels hoping for the best... It is time for true leaders to take up the cause and realize that nothing short of a revolution is going to bring this country back from the brink of destruction... Where are our George Washingtons, Thomas Jeffersons, and Ben Franklins? We have our Glenn Becks, but it is going to take the Founding Father's willingness to sacrifice their Lives, Fortunes and Sacred Honor from every Red Blooded American to stand up, stand fast and fight to the death (literally or figuratively) to recapture our country and reinstate our Constitution...
You may have noticed that I haven't mentioned the Vote that is going to take place a few hours from now, that is because though it will be more than likely as historic a vote as will occur in my lifetime, the fact remains that "We Are At War"... This is one battle of what will inevitably be many in a "War" that will wage on... Win or lose today's battle, we must neither give up, nor relax our guard... We must continue to fight against progressives and their idiotic notion of a socialist utopia... If history has taught us anything, history has taught us "socialism does not work"...
Lock and Load!!!

In a post script, I must acknowledge my utter and complete shame for the state of Florida to have elected an ASSHOLE the likes of Alcee Hastings... I live in Connie Mack's district and therefore can't be held personally responsible, but feel the shame none the less...

YOU GOTTA LOVE THIS WOMAN (P)
I just returned home from a 9/12 sign waving protest feeling kind of full of myself... That is until I opened my email and received this picture... Kind of makes our little protest seem insignificant, because I had DVR'ed Glenn Beck and my life goes on... We can only pray that this brave soul is still living...
We should all get a sense of encouragement from this photo, and know that freedom is something that can only be enjoyed by the brave of heart...
Please get out of your comfort zone and stand up for your freedom, as it is being stolen from you every time you don't... The progressives and this administration want nothing more than to turn you and me into their slaves... In Iran it is done with an oppressive religion, in our country by entitlement programs... "A slave by any other name is still a slave"...

DAMAGE CONTROL FOR ANOTHER OBAMA SUPPORTER (P)
Who's your buddy Martha?
What's in it for me Creigh?
How's that working out for you John?
General Electric and Jeffrey Immelt are scum puppies and they are using images of Ronald Reagan to try and distance themselves from Barack Obama...
(pardon me while I puke) Well it's not fooling anyone and falls into the category of "Too Little Too Late"...
I have for years used interest free financing from Lowes and other retailers as a way to save capital and not pay any interest... (very important to pay it off in the allotted time) The majority of the time, the payments go to G.E. Money Bank... Although I don't pay interest, I'm sure the retailers pay a percentage to G.E... Well that's not going to happen in my household again...

BLUE OUT OBAMACARE (P)
I'm sorry that I didn't come up with this sooner and realize that it's going to take everyone with an email account to hasten to spread the word... If you find any substance to this, I urge you to spread the word...
The capitalists out there feel free to print the T-Shirts... "I Blew Out Obamare" "The Wind of Change Stopped Blowing 3/17/10"
CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE (P)
The preceding was to the best of my ability recalling the dream I had last night... I'm pretty sure it was after reading in "The 5,000 Year Leap" about former black panther Eldrige Cleaver who after years of exile and running from the law came back to the United State, turned himself in and proclaimed "I'd rather be in prison in America than a free man in a socialist country"

A LICENSE REQUIRED FOR YOUR HOUSE? (P)
HERE'S YOUR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT STABBING MIDDLE CLASS AMERICA IN THE BACK, OR PERHAPS MORE ACCURATELY IN YOUR WALLET!!!
A License Required for your HOUSE?
If you own your home you really need to check this out at the end of this email is the Google link to verify. If the country thinks the housing market is depressed now, wait until everyone sees this no one will be buying homes in the future.
We encourage you to read the provisions of the Cap and Trade Bill that has passed the House of Representatives and being considered by the Senate. We are ready to join the next march on Washington ! This Congress and whoever on their staffs that write this junk are truly out to destroy the middle class of the U.S.A ....
A License will be required for your house...no longer just for cars and mobile homes....
Thinking about selling your house. Take a look at H.R. 2454 (Cap and trade bill). This is shocking!
Only the beginning from the Obama administration! Home owners take note & tell your friends and relatives who are home owners!
Beginning 1 year after enactment of the Cap and Trade Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with the energy and water efficiency standards of this Act. H.R. 2454, the "Cap & Trade" bill passed by the House of Representatives, if it is also passed by the Senate, it will be the largest tax increase any of us has ever experienced. The Congressional Budget Office (supposedly non-partisan) estimates that in just a few years the average cost to every family of four will be $6,800 per year. No one is excluded.
However, once the lower classes feel the pinch in their wallets, you can be sure these voters get a tax refund (even if they pay no taxes at all) to offset this new cost. Thus, you Mr. And Mrs. Middle Class America will have to pay even more since additional tax dollars will be needed to bail out everyone else..
But wait. This awful bill (that no one in Congress has actually read) has many more surprises in it. Probably the worst one is this: A year from when the bill becomes law, you won't be able to sell your house. Yes, you read that right. The caveat is (there always is a caveat) that if you have enough money to make required major upgrades to your home, then you can sell it. But, if not, then forget it. Even pre-fabricated homes ("mobile homes") are included. In effect, this bill prevents you from selling your home without the permission of the EPA administrator. To get this permission,
you will have to have the energy efficiency of your home measured. Then the government will tell you what your new energy efficiency requirement is and you will be forced to make modifications to your home under the retrofit provisions of this Act to comply with the new energy and water efficiency requirements. Then you will have to get your home measured again and get a license (called a "label" in the Act) that must be posted on your property to show what your efficiency rating is; sort of like the Energy Star efficiency rating label on your refrigerator or air conditioner. If you don't get a high enough rating, you can't sell. And, the EPA administrator is authorized to raise the standards every year, even above the automatic energy efficiency increases built into the Act. The EPA administrator, appointed by the President, will run the Cap & Trade program (AKA the "American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009") and is authorized to make any future changes to the regulations and standards he alone determines to be in the government's best interest. Requirements are set low initially so the bill will pass Congress; then the Administrator can set much tougher new standards every year.
The Act itself contains annual required increases in energy efficiency for private and commercial residences and buildings. However, the EPA administrator can set higher standards at any time. Sect. 202 Building Retrofit Program mandates a national retrofit program to increase the energy efficiency of all existing homes across America . Beginning 1 year after enactment of the Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with the energy and water efficiency standards of this Act. You had better sell soon, because the standards will be raised each year and will be really hard (I.e., ex$pen$ive) to meet in a few years. Oh, goody! The Act allows the government to give you a grant of several thousand dollars to comply with the retrofit program requirements IF you meet certain energy efficiency levels. But, wait, the State can set additional requirements on who qualifies to receive the grants. You should expect requirements such as "can't have an income of more than $50K per year", "home selling price can't be more than $125K", or anything else to target the upper middle class (and that's YOU) and prevent them from qualifying for the grants. Most of us won't get a dime and will have to pay the entire cost of the retrofit out of our own pockets. More transfer of wealth, more "change you can believe in." Sect. 204 Building Energy Performance Labeling Program establishes a labeling program that for each individual residence will identify the achieved energy efficiency performance for "at least 90 percent of the residential market within 5 years after the date of the enactment of this Act."
This means that within 5 years 90% of all residential homes in the U.S. must be measured and labeled. The EPA administrator will get $50M each year to enforce the labeling program. The Secretary of the Department of Energy will get an additional $20M each year to help enforce the labeling program. Some of this money will, of course, be spent on coming up with tougher standards each year...
Oh, the label will be like a license for your car. You will be required to post the label in a conspicuous location in your home and will not be allowed to sell your home without having this label. And, just like your car license, you will probably be required to get a new label every so often - maybe every year. But, the government estimates the cost of measuring the energy efficiency of your home should only cost about $200 each time. Remember what they said about the auto smog inspections when they first started: that in California it would only cost $15. That was when the program started. Now the cost is about $50 for the inspection and certificate; a 333% increase. Expect the same from the home labeling program. Sect. 304 Greater Energy Efficiency in Building Codes
establishes new energy efficiency guidelines for the National Building Code and mandates at 304(d) that 1 year after enactment of this Act, all state and local jurisdictions must adopt the National Building Code energy efficiency provisions or must obtain a certification from the federal government that their state and/or local codes have been brought into full compliance with the National Building Code energy efficiency standards.

LETS PUT AN END TO OBAMACARE ONCE AND FOR ALL (P)
"ObamaCare basically means that every time you are sick or injured, you will have a clerk from the Department of Motor Vehicles telling your doctor what he can and cannot do." - Ben Stein
The following is from a quarterly newsletter that the company I work for receives from our bonding company Neilson & Company, Inc. written by Charles J. Neilson...
The people already know that Mr. (you can tell I didn't write this because I'd never use the word Mr. in front of this jerks name) Obama's plan to lower health care costs while expanding coverage and bureaucracy is a myth, a promise of something that never was and never will be...it is and always has been a myth that a bureaucracy will lower cost in a free society. Either the cost will go up or the free society will go away.
DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT... lets take a look at history:
- The U.S. Post Office was established in 1775. We have had 234 years to get it right and it is broke.
- Social Security was established in 1935. We have had 74 years to get it right and it is broke.
- Fannie May was established in 1938. We have had 71 years to get it right and it is broke, and broke the nation along with it.
- War on Poverty started in 1964. We have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor" and they are still poor and want more.
- Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. We have had 44 years to get it right and both programs are broke.
- Freddie Mac was established in 1970. We have had 39 years to get it right and it is broke.
- The Department of Energy was was created in 1977 to lessen our dependence on foreign oil. It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a budget of $24 billion a year and we import more oil than ever before. We had 32 years to get it right and it has been an abysmal failure.
We are now hearing rhetoric from the White House, Congress and Senate that a 2,000+ page bureaucratic nightmare to take over 1/6th of our economy in the name of health care is going to be something we can pay for? As with every other program that the government runs, the cost to the next generation will be astronomically than the government is now projecting. The truth of it is we can not afford this program and it will bankrupt our country.
Again this may be preaching to the choir... You have Obummer making his $8 billion math mistake yesterday saying "this bill would save $1 trillion in the first decade" (gee that's not what the CBO says) along with his Thug-of-Staff, Rahm Emanuel, railroading congressmen out of office because they wouldn't vote for this P.O.S. bill... (think real hard, you'll figure out what P.O.S. means)
I never thought I'd use this word in one of my posts, but "COLLECTIVELY" we must do everything humanly possible to stop these bastards from destroying Health Care and our country with it...

HAMSTER NIPPLES (P)
- If the left thinks we're wrong, why do they call us "The Right"?
- Were there any Muslims on the Mayflower? (I mean, did one Pilgrim jump off that ship, throw down a mat, face east and praise Allah)
- The above being true, why don't you find your own "New World"... (you've taken over Europe, Africa and Asia, I hear Antarctica is beautiful this time of year... If you don't believe me, just ask Al Gore)
- If Obama care is so good for us, why is it that the progressives have to cram it down our throats? (even Mary Poppins can't make this crap taste good)
- If the Obama administration is so eager to create or save jobs, why are they scrapping the space program? (could it be that John Holdren is afraid that their "Global Warming" scam will be proven to be just that... oops, there goes "Cap & Tax"
- Does anyone in their "RIGHT" mind think that Charlie Crist is a "Conservative"?
- With ears the size of Obama's, wouldn't you think he could hear us?
- If God wasn't a Florida Gator, why did he make the sky "Blue" and the sun "Orange"?
OK, I had fun with that... Although I did catch some beautiful sunshine and drank a few beers yesterday, I didn't use the pad because I was intoxicated, I used the pad because I'm getting older and I have that dreaded disease CRS... Can't Remember Stuff!!!

OBAMACARE OBITUARY (P)
As busy as these patriots are, I 'm sure if asked, they would help you in your efforts to start a group in your area... Here again is a link to S.W. Florida 9/12 Project...
http://www.meetup.com/The-SWFL-9-12Project-Meetup-Group/
Dear SWFL 912ers and Friends,
As you know, this week has been horrendous for the furtherance of the Obamacare legislation. Our President is pulling out all the stops, promising judgeships, ambassadorships and anything he can for a YES vote. They are feinting and faking us out with reconciliation threats while the White House drags in every opposing Democratic Congressman for the house to pass the senate bill on their desk now for the President to sign by Easter.
Our healthcare and personal freedoms have never faced a greater attack. The complete government takeover of one of America’s largest segment of business has never faced so dire a time from the progressives who seek to own everything.
To combat this, SWFL 912 with the help of the Naples Tea Party will be hosting a candlelight vigil from 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM at NCH Main Downtown hospital tomorrow night in front of the parking garage on U.S. 41 in downtown Naples along the sidewalk in front of the Naples Community Hospital parking garage and every Sunday night after tomorrow until we kill Obamacare.
You can pick up a candle for this purpose at Target or Christian Book Store.
This rally format was announced on FOX News and will be held nationwide.
We are also putting the following Obituary or Special Notice in the Naples Daily News and the Ft. Myers Free Press to dramatize this effort!
For those of you not RESIDING in Florida, we request you plan the same in front of your hospitals.
Please read the following notice and gather all your friends to come to Naples NCH tomorrow night.
Jamie, Cheryl, Terri, Barry and the SWFL912 and Naples Tea Party Teams.
Announcing the Imminent Death of American Healthcare
American Healthcare has been given her death sentence. She will die of a disease called Socialized Medicine, better known as “Obamacare”. The President and our legislators tell us her death is to occur on or before Easter 2010. Like the Christmas Eve vote; once again they determine to remove not only the joy of our Christian holiday, but the hope of our future health.
American Healthcare has provided her citizens and the citizens of all nations with comfort and healing throughout generations. She has given renewed health to the infirm, made the lame to walk, healed the uninsured accident victim, and enabled the cancer victim to walk away cancer free on untold occasions. She has done so without question, regardless of the ability to pay. A miracle worker every day, her hallowed abilities will be sorely missed by all. American Healthcare surely is a hero loved by all.
American Healthcare has treated Kings not as fortunate for medical advancement within their own borders as well as the lowliest and sickest of humanity throughout the world. Prime Ministers from socialist countries enter her beds for premier heart surgeries; just as the downtrodden, found beaten and left for dead in Anywhere Alley, USA have received the same care. Untold Millions have exited her doors in restored health - whole and healed. The sick child from Haiti, the Leukemia patient from England, the brain tumor victim from Canada, the Siamese twins from India and we are always welcome in her beds. Indeed, American Healthcare, along with her helpers, our physicians and nurses, repeatedly open their beds to treat the masses from all walks of life. American healthcare is blind to station, but never to those desperately in need of world class treatment for life threatening conditions – oftentimes at no cost to the patient.
Now we citizens are told they will install panels to decide what treatment we can receive. If we are not of prime age or perfect health, we will be given over to death panels whose job it will be to provide us with counseling to end our lives, to order lesser care, or perhaps a letter offering to pay for the drugs for our suicide – all to “insure” 30 million people. What else will they do? We know they will enter our checking accounts for auto withdrawals, track our health through the IRS, and tax or jail us if we refuse to buy their insurance. As was proposed in the American Mecca of socialized medicine (Massachusetts) just Thursday; should we also expect that our faith-based and deeply personal circumcision decisions be outlawed for cost containment reasons?
Once American Healthcare dies, there will be nowhere else in the world for anyone to go for premier care and the newest advancements in medicine. Where will we go that we are assured the best care in the world regardless of our wealth or ability to pay? No other country will offer us what America offers now. Rather, we are warned by 45% of the doctors that they will no longer be able to afford to practice. They will be forced to retire. Our taxes will increase, we will receive substandard care, our choices will no longer be our own, and our own doctors may very well choose to close their doors.
Please join us to pray for American Healthcare’s miracle – the very miracle she has given so many of us - renewed health and reprieve from certain death. A candlelight vigil for the wellbeing of American Healthcare is scheduled for Sunday, March 7th at NCH Main Hospital in front of the parking garage at 7:30 – 8:30 PM. We will meet there this Sunday and every Sunday evening thereafter until we see this big government American Healthcare death panel fail. Bring your candles, your bibles to “cling to” and the words to the song “We shall Overcome”. We will pray fervently for the death of the Obamacare in order to save the life of American Healthcare.

I'M LEAFING OVER A NEW TURN IN MY LIFE (P)
I don't know about you, but I'm not going down the road to socialism without one hell of a fight... I have three children and four grandchildren so far (no pressure Mat) and I refuse to leave them with this mess... I'm not capable on my own of enacting a huge amount of change, but through joining with like minded people, change (the good kind) can and will take place...
I'm fortunate enough to live in S.W. Florida and we have just such a group... What I'm hoping to achieve with this post is to give you an opportunity to see the inner workings of The S.W. Florida 9/12 Project http://www.meetup.com/The-SWFL-9-12Project-Meetup-Group/ This is part of a national group and if there is not one in your immediate area, perhaps you could look into starting one... The people at the heart of our group have dedicated themselves to educating the public and being proactive in the election of local, state and federal public servants... (they may forget, but they work for us, hence no reference to politicians)
I'll continue to blog, (gives me something to do since my doctor made me quit using heroine) but I'm going make an effort to become more involved in the day to day, nuts and bolts, front line war on the evil that is attacking our country...
Thus ends another episode of "As the Turn Leafs"...

QUOTE OF THE WEEK (P)
Who would have thought that the LA TIMES would even allow it on their pages??
Quote Of The Week:
"Frankly, I don't know what it is about California, but we seem to have a strange urge to elect really obnoxious women to high office. I'm not bragging, you understand, but no other state, including Maine, even comes close. When it comes to sending left-wing dingbats to Washington, we're number one. There's no getting around the fact that the last time anyone saw the likes of Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, and Nancy Pelosi, they were stirring a cauldron when the curtain went up on 'Macbeth'. The three of them are like jackasses who happen to possess the gift of blab. You don't know if you should condemn them for their stupidity or simply marvel at their ability to form words."

UNDOCUMENTED GUESTS (P)
This is priceless, especially coming on the heels of Desiree Rogers stepping down as the Whitehouse social director...
Perhaps Janet Napolitano should take Mrs Roger's lead... The issue of illegal immigration is one that progressives choose to overlook, as they tend to be their future entitlement slaves...

CAPITALISM VERSES FREE SPEECH (P)
Mine:
Subject: On-Line Dating for Affairs...
I’m writing to express my outrage over an advertisement I heard on 94.5 on my way into work this morning… I heard the disclaimer proceeding the ad for an on-line dating service for those wishing to cheat on their spouses… I will be the first to champion your right to air the commercial, however I feel very strongly about whether if you continue if I shall continue listening to your station… I know all too well that these are tough times financially, but I’m pretty sure the fallout from listeners will far outweigh any financial benefit your station may gain by continuing to air this vile and contemptuous advertisement…
You may have noticed that I have C.C. many others and this is only a fraction of my email address book… My next action will be to post this on my blog which is read all over this country… The S.W. Florida 9/12 Project could have a field day with this, so please consider removing this ad ASAP…

Hi (P),
Unfortunately this commercial got by our screening of new advertisers including myself. They have tried multiple times to get on the air before by submitting requests through different advertiser names which disguise their commercial content. Thank you for listening and reporting this. We have deleted this commercial and will no longer air on any Meridian Broadcasting station.
Please do not hesitate to contact me in the future about any issues you may hear arise.
Regards, Jim
