President Barack Obama’s words from his own life story are under debate, yet should be of interest to all of us. Many conservatives believe that Obama wrote “I will stand with the Muslims,” in his autobiography. While those were not his exact words, his actions indicate it is exactly what he meant. I agree Obama’s remarks are open to interpretation. The problem is his actions today are so toxic, as to convince many of us that he meant the words, “I will stand with the Muslims.” Judge for yourself. Actions speak louder than words.
1. His father was not only a Muslim but a Communist.
2. The Constitutional Requirement for President states:
a. No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States
b. Status as a natural-born citizen of the United States is one of the eligibility requirements established in the United States Constitution for holding the office of President or Vice President. This requirement was intended to protect the nation from foreign influence.
i. Foreign influence to me, includes loyalty to one’s non-citizen parent, in Obama’s case the father was both a Muslim and a Communist and unquestionably NOT a citizen of the United States.
ii. Obama’s mother’s citizenship at the time that he was born was unquestionably as a natural born citizen (born to Communists).
3. Hawaii wasn’t even a state when Obama was born, though it was a US Territory since 1898.
a. Technically Hawaii was not one of the 48 United States when he was born so he cannot be a natural born citizen either. At any rate Obama was believed to have had his citizenship relinquished when he was living with his Mother and her husband Soetero in Indonesia. He is believed to have returned to the United States sometime in his late teens on a foreign passport as Barry Soetero and entered college as a foreign student.
4. Better yet, Why did Obama have an alias? What was his real name? Why is the social security number he uses given to a man who died in Hawaii around the time Obama was born? Is this a true allegation? Were persons of American territories eligible to be President? Were persons of American territories eligible for Social Security? Why would a child have a social security number at birth at the time of his birth? Many questions for and against the determination of his legal status at the time he ran for president.
We can’t know whether or not all of these things are true because they are hidden away with every other record of Barack Hussein Obama at a price of several millions of dollars. Why?
I think it’s time to get some answers.

SNOWFLAKES 2-21-17
SNOWFLAKES
Contemplating all of these “Snowflakes” despairing because President Trump won the election. It is ongoing. Hatred abounds for a man who gave up a plush lifestyle with nothing more to do than be the head of corporations he had groomed his children to run, enjoy his children and grandchildren and his beautiful wife. He gave that life up because he saw what millions of Conservatives and Libertarians were seeing with the erosion of our freedoms. He saw the Socialists and the Communists inside our government trying to rid of us of our Constitutional Rights and freedoms. He saw a President who was raised as a Communist, and who stated he would choose Islam over America trying to do these things. He became a courageous fighter, taking on not only the Liberal Progressive Left but also the Republican Party Elitists who had other ideas about who should be President, as well as the Mainstream Press!
Fortunately with the assistance of Social Media, Facebook, Twitter, and Patriot Journalists who formed their own online networks, he found a way to connect with the Conservative Public. He worked tirelessly to reach (unreported by mainstream media) the thousands of Americans who showed up at his campaign rallies. He endured the fake news, the false attacks, the false accusations of racism and sexism. He learned to say outrageous things on Twitter so that the mainstream news would interview him. It was the only way he could get mainstream news coverage. He continued to draw in huge crowds of people to hear him. The public was overjoyed to hear the words and promises of this man who left successful business lifestyle to take on the enormous job of saving this country from destruction that was well on its way. Much damage had already been done. The Conservatives turned to God, as did Donald Trump, to give him strength and endurance to continue despite the attacks from the Left, the Right Elitists and the Mainstream Media.
On election night about 9:00 p.m., when it appeared that Hillary was going to win, Conservatives turned off their TVs and began to pray en masse. We went to bed with heavy hearts thinking that, once again, voter fraud would triumph over the people and we would wake up to another eight years of destruction of our way of life, destruction of our country. We prayed Thank you God for seeing us through the hard times, looking back on the last 8 to 10 years of Socialist Control of most of our government, and knew God would see us through again. We had experienced the heartache before in 2008 and again in 2012, but we knew we’d survive, we knew we would recover because we had God at our backs, protecting us through all that occurred. We knew Donald Trump had that same reliance on God’s protection for us. We went to sleep thanking God for a good day.
Many of us awoke around 2:00 a.m. on November 9, 2016. I had fallen asleep with the television on mute in my bedroom. I glanced at it and saw the ribbon across the bottom of the screen announcing that Donald Trump was the 45th President of the United States! I did not stop thanking God for days. I’m still thanking God as I see all of the things President Trump has accomplished in the past 31 days, despite attacks from the Left, despite the negative Mainstream News reporting, despite the #NeverTrump GOP haters like McCain and Graham. I pray for President Trump to be kept safe and free from harm, just as I pray the same for my own son.
I understand the feelings of grief the Leftie Snowflakes felt upon awakening to the loss of their candidate. I felt the same way when her husband was elected, and again in 2008 and 2012. But I swiftly recovered. Why aren’t they recovering? Why the Hatred? Why the Violence? Why? Because they don’t have the Power of God behind them. They were raised in schools without prayer. They were taught there was no God. They have no hope because they have no faith. Pray: God bless the Unfaithful and let them find God and the Hope He gives us every day...and God Bless President Donald J. Trump, and God Bless America.

History Lesson on Your Social Security
A History Lesson on Your Social Security Card
1934 -
1934 -
With the elections just a little over 3 months away you'll soon be hearing some Democrats running for political office, warning how the Republicans want to take away the old people's Social Security.
Just in case some of you young whippersnappers (& some older ones) didn't know this it's easy to check out, if you don't believe it. Be sure and show it to your family and friends. They need a little history lesson on what's what and it doesn't matter whether you are Democrat or Republican.
Facts are Facts:
Social Security Cards, issued in 1934, and up until the 1980s expressly stated the number and that card were not to be used for identification purposes. Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the message, NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION, was removed.
Facts are Facts:
Social Security Cards, issued in 1934, and up until the 1980s expressly stated the number and that card were not to be used for identification purposes. Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the message, NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION, was removed.
When Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. He promised:
1.) That participation in the Program would be completely voluntary,
No longer Voluntary
2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual Incomes into the Program,
Now 7.65% on the first $90,000
3.) That the money the participants elected to put into the Program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year,
No longer tax deductible
4.) That the money the participants put into the independent 'Trust Fund' rather than into the general operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program.
Under Johnson, another Democrat, the money was moved to The General Fund and Spent
Under Johnson, another Democrat, the money was moved to The General Fund and Spent
5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.
Under Clinton & Gore, Democrats, Up to 85% of your Social Security can be Taxed
Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month -- and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of the money we paid to the Federal government to 'put away' for us -- you may be interested in the following:
Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the independent 'Trust Fund' and put it into the general fund so that Congress could spend it?
A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the Democratically controlled House and Senate.
Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?
A: The Democratic Party.
Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities?
A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore casting the 'tie-breaking' deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the US
Q: Which Political Party decided to startgiving annuity payments to immigrants?
AND MY FAVORITE:
A: That's right!
Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party.
Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The Democratic Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it!
Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away!
And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe changes will evolve. Maybe not, some Democrats are awfully sure of what isn't so.

Respect for Your Elders!
DO TAKE A MINUTE TO GO THRU THIS....IT TELLS IT LIKE IT IS....
most are all too interested in their careers or "Climbing the Social Ladder" to be involved in such mundane things as patriotism and voting. Many of those who fell for the "Great Lie" in 2008 are now having buyer's remorse. With all the education we gave you, you didn't have sense enough to see through the lies and instead drank the 'Kool-Aid.' Now you're paying the price and complaining about it. No jobs, lost mortgages, higher taxes, and less freedom.This is what you voted for and this is what you got. We entrusted you with the Torch of Liberty and you traded it for a paycheck and a fancy house.Well, don't worry youngsters, the Grey-Haired Brigade is here, and in 2012 we are going to take back our nation. We may drive a little slower than you would like but we get where we're going, and in 2012 we're going to the polls by the millions.This land does not belong to the man in the White House nor to the likes of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. It belongs to "We the People" and "We the People" plan to reclaim our land and our freedom. We hope this time you will do a better job of preserving it and passing it along to our grandchildren. So the next time you have the chance to say the Pledge of Allegiance, Stand up, put your hand over your heart, honor our country, and thank God for the old geezers of the "Grey-Haired Brigade."
Can you feel the ground shaking??? It's not an earthquake, it is a STAMPEDE.

WHY PRAYER IS THE BEST HEALTH INSURANCE
How did healthcare and insurance get in this mess? I remember when I first got married, our family health insurance was paid half by my husband's company and half by us. They took out $6.95 every two weeks for our share. My theory is that GREED is the culprit.
First the Doctors the Hospitals and Care Providers got greedy and said "Oh look the insurance company is paying this, let's raise our charges.
Then the greedy pharmaceutical companies jumped onto the gravy train and raised the prices of their pills under the guise of "research and development" costs. They wanted to have more money too, so they said let's charge $10 for a 10 cent pill.
So they did, and the greedy insurance company raised their rates and began charging more for the premiums. Then to even things out they began declining coverage and giving executives raises for the higher net they received So the Greedy Executives instructed their people to write stricter measures for being eligible for coverage and to decline more....and raise their rates even higher.
In the meantime, the Greedy Doctors and Hospitals and pharmaceutical companies were joined by the Greedy Unions who demanded more and more. And the Doctor bills and Hospital Care went up and up. The Unions demanded more money.
However, If you weren't in a union you didn't get more money unless you changed jobs or got raise from your employer (and if you worked for a lawyer they didn't provide health insurance and you didn't get paid a lot anyway). It suddenly occurs to you that procuring health insurance for yourself is going to cost you more than the mortgage payment on your house each month!
So my solution was to declare Insurance of any sort a Sin of Gambling. I am betting with the insurance company that I am going to get sick (or is it the other way around...oh well, it's a gamble. I might get sick and they might have to pay)...and Gambling is against my religion! So the answer is PRAYER. Thank you God for keeping me safe and healthy. So simple. And much cheaper!

HAVEN'T BEEN BLOGGING LATELY:
After the November election I went into significant mourning for our country.
On April 29, 2013 my Mother died and I have been intensely involved in a combination of mourning and trying to figure out what to do with her things. I'm having a bad time figuring it all out.
I've written specific predictions as far back as 2007 & 2008 about the effects of Obama on our nation, and I'm sad to say these predictions are coming true. Obama is systematically destroying America as much through his inaction as his action

I'll get back to blogging one of these days!

The Sequester Poem - An Understanding
by Amy Payne
He knew spending meant power, so hour by hour, he thought up more spends from
his Washington tower.
“I’ll spend without limits; I’ll spend without blame! Raising taxes to pay—that’s the name of the game.”
Down the street, though, a House filled with thriftier folk had a budget to pass, or the country’d go broke.
“We can’t spend all day; we’ve got bills to pay! Let’s keep deficits and higher taxes away.”
The Senate next door to the House just refused. “We don’t like your budget. We’ve got some bad news:
The President says we can spend all we want, and we’ll simply raise taxes whenever we choose.”
So they spent and they spent and they borrowed some more. And when all that was spent, they spent same as before.
But not everyone thought the spending was nice. In the House and the Senate, some spenders thought twice.
“We’ll cut down on spending. We have a bad feeling…” then—SMACK!—right on schedule, they hit the debt ceiling.
Then the President’s office, confronted with debt: “If it’s cuts they want now, then it’s cuts they shall get.
We’ll threaten such cuts that NO one would take, and show them that cuts are not smart to make.”
“This will make Congress move. We’ll just float out a tester… broad, haphazard cuts that we’ll call the sequester.”
The Senate and even the House said, “Okay! That will motivate us to find a good way.
We’ll figure this out and stave off those cuts—to allow them to happen, we’d have to be nuts.”
So the deadline was set, but the spending went on. A year and a half had soon come and gone.
The House passed a budget; the Senate said no; the President very much enjoyed the show.
“Spend higher! Spend faster! Grow the welfare rolls! Soon, love for the spending will show up in the polls.” He even raised taxes, but it wasn’t enough—the levels of spending grew too fast to keep up.
“Don’t you mind the sequester,” he told Capitol Hill. “You said you would fix it, and I’m sure you will.”
But they could not agree on ways to cut spending, and before they knew it, the sequester was pending.
“Oh no!” they all cried. “We can’t let these cuts stand!”
And the President said, “WHO thought of this terrible plan?”
They didn’t remember his plan all along.
He distracted them with his spending-cut song.
Now he returned to save them from harm,
and to keep them forgetting all but his charm.
So the President said with a glint in his eye, “You tried to cut spending. I saw how you tried.
But it’s just too painful—I’m sure you can see. From the beginning, you should have listened to me.”
“I’ll save you all from the spend-cutters’ axes.
You see, the solution is just to raise taxes.”
On Pennsylvania Avenue, right near the end,
there lived a President who wanted to spend.
“I’ll spend without limits; I’ll spend without blame! Raising taxes to pay—that’s the name of the game.”
Down the street, though, a House filled with thriftier folk had a budget to pass, or the country’d go broke.
“We can’t spend all day; we’ve got bills to pay! Let’s keep deficits and higher taxes away.”

A VERY SHORT STORY OF TRAGEDY
The body was lifeless.
I couldn't detect a heartbeat, breathing had stopped.
What are the steps for CPR?
I tilted the tiny head back and gently pinched the nostrils shut.
I blew gently until I saw the tiny chest rise with the air.
I tapped the chest with my fingertips.
I kept this up for several minutes.
When all efforts at resuscitation failed, I carried the lifeless body downstairs, opened the back door and tossed it out into the snow to be recycled.
Pet mice are expendable.

PRIDE AND JOY
I originally wrote this in the 80's on my Selectric typewriter. I'm dejunking (watching "Hoarders" is productive in that it moves us all to clean out our files now and then).
I'm a very special person. My Grandmother told me so, thus it must be true. She told me that I'm also very lucky, so I must believe that as well. She says I was lucky to have been born in the United States of America because bad things happen in other parts of the world.
"But Grandmother, doesn't anything bad ever happen in the United States of America?"
"Yes, sometimes bad things happen. There are bad people everywhere. But in America we have freedom, and freedom is the most important thing in the world to have."
"I have to pick up my toys whether I want to or not."
"There's a difference between duty and freedom." explained Grandmother. "It is our duty to preserve freedom. It is our duty to give people the freedom to be themselves."
"How could people not be themselves?" I asked.
"Some people think we should give poor people things so they won't have to do without."
"That's a nice thing to do. What's wrong with that?" I asked.
"If you give people charity, the people will think you don't have faith in their ability to do for themselves. When you give them charity you take away their pride." said Grandmother.
"What is pride, Grandmother?"
"Pride is Joy. Pride is satisfaction, happiness, pride is dignity and self-respect."
"Grandad's horses are Pride and Joy!"
"Just think how Grandad wouldn't be able to work if you took away Pride and Joy. It's the same with the poor people. You can't give them charity without taking their ability to work. If you take away their Pride and Joy, they have no dignity. They become slaves to those who do for them what they should be doing for themselves."
I'm a very special person. My Grandmother told me so, thus it must be true. She told me that I'm also very lucky, so I must believe that as well. She says I was lucky to have been born in the United States of America because bad things happen in other parts of the world.
"But Grandmother, doesn't anything bad ever happen in the United States of America?"
"Yes, sometimes bad things happen. There are bad people everywhere. But in America we have freedom, and freedom is the most important thing in the world to have."
"I have to pick up my toys whether I want to or not."
"There's a difference between duty and freedom." explained Grandmother. "It is our duty to preserve freedom. It is our duty to give people the freedom to be themselves."
"How could people not be themselves?" I asked.
"Some people think we should give poor people things so they won't have to do without."
"That's a nice thing to do. What's wrong with that?" I asked.
"If you give people charity, the people will think you don't have faith in their ability to do for themselves. When you give them charity you take away their pride." said Grandmother.
"What is pride, Grandmother?"
"Pride is Joy. Pride is satisfaction, happiness, pride is dignity and self-respect."
"Grandad's horses are Pride and Joy!"
"Just think how Grandad wouldn't be able to work if you took away Pride and Joy. It's the same with the poor people. You can't give them charity without taking their ability to work. If you take away their Pride and Joy, they have no dignity. They become slaves to those who do for them what they should be doing for themselves."

Benghazi Heroes - a Poem
A tribute to those left out there to die"
Written by Col. William Bauer, USMC.
“The Battling Bastards of Benghazi”
We're the Battling Bastards of Benghazi,
no fame, no glory, no paparazzi.
Just a fiery death in a blazing hell,
defending the country we loved so well.
It wasn't our job, but we answered the call,
fought to the consulate, 'n scaled th' wall.
We pulled twenty countrymen from the jaws of fate,
led them to safety, 'n stood at th' gate.
Just the two of us, 'n foe by th' score,
but we stood fast to bar th' door.
We called for reinforcement, but it was denied,
so we fought, 'n we fought, 'n we fought, 'n we died.
We gave our all for our Uncle Sam,
'n Obama didn't give a damn,
just two dead SEALS, who carried the load,
no thanks to us, we were bumps in the road.

ANY WAR, ANY TIME by Zachary A. Shellman
A short story written by my son, Zach.
It is quiet, it is so quiet. Everything seems to stop for the sunrise. Everything seems to become quieter until the sun breaks over the mountains in the East, as if the world were holding its breath.
As the sun rises it bathes everything in a rich orange light.
I think it strange how something so beautiful could happen here, in this place of death and destruction.
Some people take these things for granted, but not me. I see the beauty in these things, because I know it may be the last time I ever see them.
Nature is very persistent, you know. Nature knows when things aren’t right, and she tries to compensate for it in her own small way. For example, when the old building, the one I used to go to when I needed to think, was hit by an artillery shell, it was totally leveled, but, a month later there were flowers. They weren’t large and abundant. They were small and barely surviving, but they were there, and they were growing from the rubble.
Some other people don’t notice these things, like my brother. The only thing he notices is his rifle needs to be cleaned. He is a soldier, following his beliefs. Everyone has a right to their beliefs, but he is almost fanatical. He holds his beliefs in higher regard than sleep. He is only 16. He should not be concerned with fighting. He should be involved with girls, not worrying how much ammunition he should carry.
It’s all too crazy.
A gunshot. From where? Another one, coming from down the street. I see two people running down the street trying to dodge sniper fire.
I remember a time of peace, a time of quiet before the violence and the suffering. I remember a time when my Anka and I were walking down the road, just enjoying each other’s company. We were so happy. She was the most beautiful, the most gentle, the sweetest creature in the world. I loved her more than anything else. But she is gone now. She was killed during the first explosions of the artillery shells that hit this once peaceful city. I think that she was the lucky one, she died before she could learn how cruel human beings could be to each other.
It all seems so far away now, a thousand years away, the memories are like ghosts that fade out of the present time.
I see more clearly now the people running from the gunshots. They are almost directly below me in the street now. One of them has fallen, no he’s been shot. Who is he? I make my way down from the top floor of the deserted building. I reach the bottom floor now, but he has his back to me. I can’t tell who it is. He is trying to move into the cover of the building across the street. I yell, "Hey!" to get his attention. He rolls over and points his pistol in my direction. I see his face. It’s my brother! He recognizes me and the most sorrowful look comes to his face. I run to him, forgetting the bullets for a moment, and drag him to the other side of the street.
We are almost there when I am knocked to the ground, and an intense burning sensation rips through my chest. I ignore it, my only thought to get my brother to safety. I pull him to the doorway of the building and examine him. He has been shot through the thigh. As I remove my shirt to use as a tourniquet, the pain in my chest comes back and forces me to stop. I look down and my shirt is covered in blood. I don’t know how, but I grit my teeth through the pain and tie my shirt around my brother’s leg.
I am able to sit back now. I notice my mouth has gone completely dry, and the pain in my chest is worse with every breath. The ghosts of the past are coming back now, my tenth birthday, the day I first met my Anka, the day I graduated from high school. So many days past. So many days yet to come. Everything is suddenly growing darker, the pictures are fading from my eyes, everything is quiet once again. A light grows before me, I can’t look, it’s too bright. And then I am standing next to Anka, and my parents are there saying I saved my brother’s life. He will live a long life, because of me. We walk toward the light and I know I will be happy here.

NO PRAYER IN SCHOOLS - REDUCED TO THIS
There is no attribution other than "BY A 15 yr. OLD SCHOOL KID who got an A+ for his entry....."
Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer are not allowed in
most public schools anymore, because the word 'God' is mentioned, a kid in
Arizona wrote the attached NEW School prayer:
"New Pledge of Allegiance"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.
If scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.
Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene..
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.
For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all..
In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.
We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks...
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong..
We can get our condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles..
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd.
It's scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen
Jesus said, 'If you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you
before my Father. '
If you aren't ashamed to do it, please pass this on.

HOSTESS TWINKIE RECIPE - HOMEMADE
Hostess Twinkies
a bottle about the size of a Twinkie
twelve 12 x 14 inch pieces of aluminum foil
pastry bag
toothpick
CAKE:
4 egg whites
One 16-ounce box golden pound cake mix
2/3 cup water
Nonstick spray
FILLING:
2 Tbsp butter
1/3 cup vegetable shortening
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup evaporated milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 drops lemon extract
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Fold each piece of foil in half twice. Wrap
the folded foil around the bottle to create a mold. Leave the top open for
pouring the batter in. Make twelve of these molds and arrange on a cookie
sheet. Spray the inside of each with nonstick spray.
Beat the egg whites until stiff. Combine with cake mix and water, and beat
about 2 minutes until thoroughly blended. Pour batter into molds, filling

WHO IS MITT ROMNEY?
A lot
is being said in the media about Mitt Romney not being "likable" or that he
doesn't "relate well" to people. Frankly, we struggled to understand why. So
after much research, we have come up with a Top Ten List to explain this
"unlikablility."
Top
Ten Reasons To Dislike Mitt Romney:
1. Drop-dead, collar-ad handsome with gracious, statesmanlike aura. Looks like every central casting's #1 choice for Commander-in-Chief.
2. Been married to ONE woman his entire life, and has been faithful to her, including through her bouts with breast cancer and MS.
3. No scandals or skeletons in his closet. (How boring is that?)
4. Can't speak in a fake, southern, "black preacher voice" when necessary.
5. Highly intelligent. Graduated cum laude from both Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School...and by the way, his academic records are NOT sealed.
6. Doesn't smoke or drink alcohol, and has never done drugs, not even in the counter-culture age when he went to college. Too square for today's America?
7. Represents an America of "yesterday", where people believed in God, went to Church, didn't screw around, worked hard, and became a SUCCESS!
8. Has a family of five great sons....and none of them have police records or are in drug rehab. But of course, they were raised by a stay-at-home mom, and that "choice" deserves America's scorn.
9. Oh yes.....he's a MORMON. We need to be very afraid of that very strange religion that teaches its members to be clean-living, patriotic, fiscally conservative, charitable, self-reliant, and honest.
10. And one more point.....pundits say because of his wealth, he can't relate to ordinary Americans. I guess that's because he made that money HIMSELF.....as opposed to marrying it or inheriting it from Dad. Apparently, he didn't understand that actually working at a job and earning your own money made you un-relatable to Americans.

MY GOODNESS IT'S A STRANGE WORLD ISN'T IT!
*****************************************************
Personal
Information:
His full Name is: Willard Mitt Romney
He was Born: March 12, 1947 and is 65 years old.
His Father: George W. Romney, former Governor
of the State of Michigan
He was raised in Bloomfield Hills , Michigan
He is Married to Ann Romney since 1969; they five children.
Education:
B.A. from Brigham Young University,
J.D. and M.B.A. from Harvard University
Religion:
Mormon - The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints
Working Background:
After high school, he spent 30 months in France as a
Mormon missionary.
After going to both Harvard Business School and
Harvard Law School simultaneously, he passed the Michigan
bar exam, but never worked as an attorney.
In 1984, he co-founded Bain Capital a private equity
investment firm, one of the largest such firms in the
United States.
In 1994, he ran for Senator of Massachusetts and lost
to Ted Kennedy.
He was President and CEO of the 2002 Winter Olympic
Games.
In 2002, he was elected Governor of the State of
Massachusetts where he eliminated a 1.5 billion deficit.
Some Interesting Facts about Romney:
Bain Capital, starting with one small office supply store
in Massachusetts, turned it into Staples; now over
2,000 stores employing 90,000 people.
Bain Capital also worked to perform the same kinds
of business miracles again and again, with companies
like Domino's, Sealy, Brookstone, Weather Channel,
Burger King, Warner Music Group, Dollarama,
Home Depot Supply and many others.
He was an unpaid volunteer campaign worker for
his dad's gubernatorial campaign 1 year.
He was an unpaid intern in his dad's governor's
office for eight years.
He was an unpaid bishop and state president of
his church for ten years.
He was an unpaid President of the Salt Lake
Olympic Committee for three years.
He took no salary and was the unpaid Governor of
Massachusetts for four years.
He gave his entire inheritance from his father to charity.
Mitt Romney is one of the wealthiest self-made men
in our country but has given more back to its citizens
in terms of money, service and time than most men.
And in 2011 Mitt Romney gave over $4 million to charity,
almost 19% of his income.... Just for comparison purposes,
Obama gave 1% and Joe Biden gave $300 or .0013%.
Mitt Romney is Trustworthy:
He will show us his birth certificate
He will show us his high school and college transcripts.
He will show us his social security card.
He will show us his law degree.
He will show us his draft notice.
He will show us his medical records.
He will show us his income tax records.
He will show us he has nothing to hide.
Mitt Romney's background, experience and
trustworthiness show him to be a great leader and
an excellent citizen for President of the United States.
You may think that Romney may not be the best
representative the Republicans could have selected.
At least I know what religion he is, and that he won't
desecrate the flag, bow down to foreign powers,
or practice fiscal irresponsibility.
I know he has the ability to turn this financial debacle
that the current regime has gotten us into. We won't
like all the things necessary to recover from this
debt, but someone with Romney's background can do it.
But, on the minus side, he never was a "Community
Organizer", never took drugs or smoked pot, never
got drunk, did not associate with communists
or terrorists, nor did he attend a church whose pastor
called for God to damn the US.

The Obama Fairy Tale
And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land
called America , having lost their morals, their initiative, and their
will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that
person known as "The One."
He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning; but He
hypnotized the people telling them, "I am sent to save you." My lack
of experience, my questionable ethics, my monstrous ego, and my
association with evil doers are of no consequence. I shall save you
with hope and Change. Go, therefore, and proclaim throughout the
land that he who proceeded me is evil, that he has defiled the nation,
and that all he has built must be destroyed. And the people rejoiced,
for even though they knew not what "The One" would do, he had promised
that it was good; and they believed. And "The One" said "We live in
the greatest country in the world. Help me change everything about it!"
And the people said, "Hallelujah! Change is good!"
Then He said, "We are going to tax the rich fat-cats." And the
people said "Sock it to them!" "And redistribute their wealth." And
the people said, "Show us the money!" And the he said, "
redistribution of wealth is good for everybody.."
And Joe the plumber asked, " Are you kidding me? You're going to
steal my money and give it to the deadbeats??" And "The One"
ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe's personal records were hacked and publicized.
One lone reporter asked, "Isn't that Marxist policy?" And she was
banished from the kingdom.
Then a citizen asked, "With no foreign relations experience and
having zero military experience or knowledge, how will you deal with
radical terrorists?" And "The One" said, "Simple. I shall sit with
them and talk with them and show them how nice we really are; and they
will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!" And the people
said, "Hallelujah!! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons
into free cars for the people!"
Then "The One" said "I shall give 95% of you lower taxes." And one,
lone voice said, "But 40% of us don't pay ANY taxes." So "The One"
said, "Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!"
And the people said, "Hallelujah! Show us the money!"
Then "The One" said, "I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell
your homes!" And the people yawned and the slumping housing market
collapsed. And He said. "I shall mandate employer-funded health care
for every worker and raise the minimum wage. And I shall give every
person unlimited healthcare and medicine and transportation to the
clinics." And the people said, "Give me some of that!"
Then he said, "I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas."
And the people said, "Where's my rebate check?"
Then "The One" said, "I shall bankrupt the coal industry and
electricity rates will skyrocket!" And the people said, "Coal is
dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don't care for that part
about higher electric rates." So "The One" said, Not to worry. If
your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out.
Just sign up with the ACORN and you troubles are over!"
Then He said, "Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let's
grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches,
free medical care, bi-lingual signs and guaranteed housing..." And
the people said, "Hallelujah!" and they made him king!
And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and
ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers. Others
simply gave up and went out of business and the economy sank like unto
a rock dropped from a cliff.
The bank banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a
crawl. And more of the people were without a means of support.
Then "The One" said, "I am the "the One"- The Messiah - and I'm here
to save you! We shall just print more money so everyone will have
enough!" But our foreign trading partners said unto Him. "Wait a
minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have
to pay more... And "The One" said, "Wait a minute. That is
unfair!!" And the world said, "Neither are these other idiotic
programs you have embraced. Lo, you have become a Socialist state and
a second-rate power. Now you shall play by our rules!"
And the people cried out, "Alas, alas!! What have we done?" But yea
verily, it was too late. The people set upon The One and spat upon
him and stoned him, and his name was dung. And the once mighty nation
was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or
shelter or hope. And the Change "The One" had given them was as like
unto a poison that had destroyed them and like a whirlwind that
consumed all that they had built.
And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish,
"give us back our nation and our pride and our hope!!" But it was too
late, and their homeland was no more.
You may think this a fairy tale, but it's not. It's happening RIGHT NOW
THIS really tells it like it is. After reading it -- and before you go into the bathroom to throw-up -- forward it to your friends and those you know who care about our country and what is happening to it under the rule of Commissar Obamanation.
P.S. -- Yeah, this is too true to be funny.. Tragic, but not funny; tragic but true.
IF YOU CAN'T SEE THIS HAPPENING.... JUST RUB YOUR EYES AND BLINK A FEW MORE TIMES REALLY GOOD.

One lone reporter asked, "Isn't that Marxist policy?" And she was
banished from the kingdom.
Then a citizen asked, "With no foreign relations experience and
having zero military experience or knowledge, how will you deal with
radical terrorists?" And "The One" said, "Simple. I shall sit with
them and talk with them and show them how nice we really are; and they
will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!" And the people
said, "Hallelujah!! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons
into free cars for the people!"
Then "The One" said "I shall give 95% of you lower taxes." And one,
lone voice said, "But 40% of us don't pay ANY taxes." So "The One"
said, "Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!"
And the people said, "Hallelujah! Show us the money!"
Then "The One" said, "I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell
your homes!" And the people yawned and the slumping housing market
collapsed. And He said. "I shall mandate employer-funded health care
for every worker and raise the minimum wage. And I shall give every
person unlimited healthcare and medicine and transportation to the
clinics." And the people said, "Give me some of that!"
Then he said, "I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas."
And the people said, "Where's my rebate check?"
Then "The One" said, "I shall bankrupt the coal industry and
electricity rates will skyrocket!" And the people said, "Coal is
dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don't care for that part
about higher electric rates." So "The One" said, Not to worry. If
your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out.
Just sign up with the ACORN and you troubles are over!"
Then He said, "Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let's
grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches,
free medical care, bi-lingual signs and guaranteed housing..." And
the people said, "Hallelujah!" and they made him king!
And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and
ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers. Others
simply gave up and went out of business and the economy sank like unto
a rock dropped from a cliff.
The bank banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a
crawl. And more of the people were without a means of support.
Then "The One" said, "I am the "the One"- The Messiah - and I'm here
to save you! We shall just print more money so everyone will have
enough!" But our foreign trading partners said unto Him. "Wait a
minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have
to pay more... And "The One" said, "Wait a minute. That is
unfair!!" And the world said, "Neither are these other idiotic
programs you have embraced. Lo, you have become a Socialist state and
a second-rate power. Now you shall play by our rules!"
And the people cried out, "Alas, alas!! What have we done?" But yea
verily, it was too late. The people set upon The One and spat upon
him and stoned him, and his name was dung. And the once mighty nation
was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or
shelter or hope. And the Change "The One" had given them was as like
unto a poison that had destroyed them and like a whirlwind that
consumed all that they had built.
And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish,
"give us back our nation and our pride and our hope!!" But it was too
late, and their homeland was no more.
You may think this a fairy tale, but it's not. It's happening RIGHT NOW
THIS really tells it like it is. After reading it -- and before you go into the bathroom to throw-up -- forward it to your friends and those you know who care about our country and what is happening to it under the rule of Commissar Obamanation.
P.S. -- Yeah, this is too true to be funny.. Tragic, but not funny; tragic but true.
IF YOU CAN'T SEE THIS HAPPENING.... JUST RUB YOUR EYES AND BLINK A FEW MORE TIMES REALLY GOOD.
