  • Forefathers Blind Spot

    • From: voidthis1966
    • Description:

      The Constitution, when it was set up, was a beautiful thing.  They divided up the power between the house, the senate and the president.  This was so that no one party had too much power.  It was also to ensure that the Constitution was upheld.  The blind spot is...what happens when the checks and balances are gone?  When the whole government becomes corrupt?  Just by Obama saying the Constitution is an outdated document could be considered words of treason.  It is quite clear where he is headed.  He is doing a total take over of this countries finances.  He is taking over major companies and now health care.  The government is setting itself up with too much power.  All of the acts could be looked at as treason.  But there is no one left in the government itself to stand up against them.  So where do we go from here? That is why the 2nd amendment was put in place.  I hope to God it gets better.  I hope, maybe, somewhere left in our government are some honest people who will step forward and enforce our Constitution.  Only time will tell.  America may be lost forever.

  • FEDERAL JUDGE DAVID HAMILTON

    • From: sgin_NV
    • Description:

      David Hamilton is a hard Left, former ACORN fund-raiser and abortion radical who was rated “not qualified” by the ABA.

      Now, via LifeNews, he is federal judge:

      The Senate voted today 59-39 to confirm a pro-abortion federal judge President Barack Obama appointed to become a new appeals court justice. David Hamilton, of Indiana, is the first pro-abortion judge Obama selected, but he was held up for months because of his extreme views.

      With less than 60 votes, the Senate could have defeated the nomination had lawmakers voted Tuesday to sustain the filibuster pro-life advocates launched against Hamilton.

      The vote saw all but one Republican, Indiana Sen. Dick Lugar, who is nominally pro-life, vote against Hamilton while all Democrats supported his nomination except two who were not present for the vote.

      However, the cloture vote saw no Democrats joining the 29 pro-life Republicans who supported it and a defection of some of the more liberal Republicans in the caucus.

      Americans United for Life president Charmaine Yoest said Hamilton should have been defeated because “judges should uphold Constitutional restrictions on abortion.”

      “As a District Court judge, Hamilton promoted his radical pro-abortion agenda. His promotion to the Seventh Circuit” is a “serious concern to the pro-life community,” she told LifeNews.com.

      Hamilton was tapped by Obama in March to fill a vacancy on the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.

      As he promised he would do, pro-life Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama led the filibuster and said Hamilton should be opposed in part because of his pro-abortion views.

      Sessions noted how Hamilton kept an informed consent measure from being enforced in Indiana, thereby prohibiting women from getting information about abortion’s risks and alternatives so they can find positive alternatives.

      “And for seven years, through a series of rulings, Hamilton kept it form being enforced. This case is a blatant example of allowing personal views to frustrate the will of the people and the popularly elected representatives of the government of Indiana,” Sessions said. “This appeared to me to be obstructionism.”

      Sen. Jim DeMint, a pro-life senator from South Carolina, agreed.

      “Judge Hamilton is the definition of an activist judge and is clearly not qualified to sit on a court of appeals,” DeMint said during the debate. “Hamilton, who spent years working with the ACLU and ACORN, has used his position on the bench to drive his personal political agenda.”

      The pro-life group Susan B. Anthony List objected to Hamilton and said it worries about future Obama nominees.

      “If Judge David Hamilton is considered a blueprint for the next judge President Obama will nominate for the U.S. Supreme Court, America is in trouble,” Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the organization, told LifeNews.com.

  • Car Auction in Washington Stat

    • From: AntonieLivingston
    • Description:

      Want to buy an automobile from a car auction in Washington State? Well, you are not the only one. There are many folks like you searching online for terms like "how to buy a sedan from car auction in Washington" and "where to find cheap car auctions in Washington State". Here are some answers to these questions.

      There are different car auctions you can participate in Washington State. No, we are not referring to the private auctions where only licensed dealers are invited. We are talking about public auto auctions that everyone can participate in. Many of them are free but some require a small entrance fee.

      The public auctions are held to sell off cars from the government agencies like DEA, FBI, IRS and the police departments. Banks and financial lenders too hold public auctions. Sometimes, these auctions are handled by private auction companies on their behalf. Vehicles sold are either seized from criminals, tax defaulters, or even pre-owned by the government agencies.

      All vehicles are sold at huge discounts, sometimes as low as $200 to $300. We are not talking about trash cans here but cars in excellent working condition. Some are BMWs, Mercedes, and your occasional sports cars. Needless to say, competition is hot for these and prices can skyrocket if there are many bids.

      Here are some tips that can help you get a great car deal at a car auction in Washington State.

      1. Search the newspapers both printed and online for news of the latest auctions. Search the advertisement and classified ads of The Daily World, Anacortes America, Centralia Chronicle and other newspapers. Go for smaller publications as well since some smaller and little known auctions could be advertised there.

      2. Go to small and hardly advertised auctions. Though the number of vehicles sold are fewer, very often, few people know about these and the competition is low, so are the prices!

      3. Call the government agencies and banks directly. Ask them when they are holding a car auction in Washington State.

      4. Be early and one of the first at the auctions. This is so that you can view the cars and inspect them first.

      5. Bring along someone who is good at car inspection. It can be a good friend of yours or a qualified auto technician.

      One last golden tip that can save you tons of time, frustration and efforts - use an online car auction search engine. For a very low fee, you can instantly find all the auto auctions taking place at the moment or sometime in the near future.

      You get to see which car auction in Washington State is taking place. Details like the auction venue, operating hours, schedule and car models and makes are available to you.

      Make new discoveries and learn more handy tips about seized car auctions such as where to find such auctions near your home and how to get great bargains for your car deals.

  • Washington State Public Record

    • From: AntonieLivingston
    • Description:

      There are so many reasons why a lot of people want to go through Washington State public records. It is a sad fact that crime rate in the United States of America has indeed risen over the years. And this is precisely why it becomes an imperative for people to go through these public records, not just for their own safety as well as that of their loved ones, but also for the safety of their very businesses and organizations. Many people feel a bit wary about looking into a person's criminal background simply because it implies a certain probe into someone's privacy. However, we all have that inherent right to do such a thing, especially when it comes to hiring employees. And this is not limited to just the hiring process at all! Here are some situations that make going through Washington State public records the ideal thing to do.

      No.1 Changes made in childcare provision

      It is quite common for day care providers to move from one city of Washington State to another, so there are constant changes made here. We all have heard so many disturbing news stories about childcare facilities dealing with molestation allegations. As parents, this is more than enough reason to browse through the publicly-accessible database of private individuals. After all, you are entrusting your child to the care of a total stranger. Even if that childcare provider is employed under a facility you have come to trust, you should still go through Washington State public records for this.

      No.2 Renting or leasing property

      Property is at stake here. No landlord can say for sure that he or she knows just about everything regarding tenants. There will always be some surprises along the way. To ensure the pleasantry of these surprises, it comes as a must to scrutinize your potential tenant before handing him or her over the contract. After all, it is your property that is placed at risk here. Why would you want to allow a criminal to rent your apartment or your commercial building, right? Truth be told, you might even be dubbed as an accessory here, if the situation worsens. Harboring a fugitive is indeed dangerous, which is all the more reason why you should look into Washington State public records.

      No.3 Dating new people

      Online dating has become massive these days, and we all know that the information people share online are not necessarily true. Even if your dating site is a reliable and safe one, you should still exercise your own measures to ensure your safety. Do not feel guilty about pulling a background check on your potential date. Go ahead and conduct your own search through Washington State public records, to make sure your prospect is indeed someone you can trust.

      Run your free public records search now to find records like birth and death, marriage and divorce filings, criminal law, county public records, phone number, address and more.

      Well America, here is a small preview of Obamacare..........No breast cancer screening until you are 50, and even then, only once every 2 years......... There will be more new "scientific breakthroughs",  and "new studies" like this comming....The motive for this crap is simple.......change the giudelines or "recomendations"  NOW, BEFORE OBAMACARE, SO THEY CAN SAY........SEE, IT WAS NOT OBAMACARE THAT KILLED YOUR FAMILY MEMBER, THE GUIDELINES CHANGED BEFORE IT STARTED..........

      IS THIS NOT ONE OF THE BIGGER LOADS OF CRAP TO COME FROM DUMBO EARS AND COMPANY? If he is talking....he's lying...........kind of scary to me.......

      It is quite shameful, what these people in DC are doing; do they really think "we the people" are that stupid?.....and we can't see through the crap and decifer the real truth?

      I find it amazing that the administration can "persuade" such a large number of people to "engage in misinformation" about so many things. What should be done with these fib-tellers after we KICK THIS IDIOT TO THE CURB? I think they should face some kind of consequence for their action, don't you?...after all we ALL have the right to freedom of speech or freedom of silence, right?

  • Crap and Trade

    • From: ExciteM
    • Description:

      The following is some important information on the Cap and Trade Bill that passed the House. If you own a house, better read! 
       
      Obama, this Congress and whoever on their staffs (or PACs) that write this junk are truly out to destroy the middle class of the USA.

      Only the beginning from this administration. They are trying to ram through these huge tax bills before they are tossed out on their rears. 

      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 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 now 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 initial y 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 to meet in a few years. Whoopee! 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, hold on, 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), Application of National Code to State and Local Jurisdictions, 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.

      Subject: Joe and Jose

      You have two families: "Joe Legal" and "Jose Illegal".
      Both families have two parents, two children, and live in California .


      Joe Legal works in construction, has a Social Security Number and makes
      $25.00 per hour with taxes deducted.


      Jose Illegal also works in construction, has NO Social Security Number,
      and gets paid $15.00 cash "under the table".


      Ready? Now pay attention...


      Joe Legal: $25.00 per hour x 40 hours = $1000.00 per week, or $52,000.00
      per year. Now take 30% away for state and federal tax; Joe Legal now has
      $31,231.00.


      Jose Illegal: $15.00 per hour x 40 hours = $600.00 per week, or
      $31,200.00 per year. Jose Illegal pays no taxes. Jose Illegal now has
      $31,200..00.


      Joe Legal pays medical and dental insurance with limited coverage for
      his family at $600.00 per month, or $7,200.00 per year. Joe Legal now
      has $24,031.00.


      Jose Illegal has full medical and dental coverage through the state and
      local clinics at a cost of $0.00 per year. Jose Illegal still has
      $31,200.00.

      Jose Illegal says, "We don't need no stinkin' insurance!" and still has
      $31,200.00.


      Joe Legal has to make his $7,231.00 stretch to pay utilities, gasoline, etc.


      Jose Illegal has to make his $31,200.00 stretch to pay utilities,
      gasoline, and what he sends out of the country every month.


      Joe Legal now works overtime on Saturdays or gets a part time job after
      work..


      Jose Illegal has nights and weekends off to enjoy with his family.

  • Our country deserves better

    • From: dlindberg102
    • Description:

      Am I so out of step with the majority in this country? Why is it that every time I turn on the TV or pick up a newspaper I find myself getting angry? This week I couldn’t believe that our illustrious Attorney General, Eric Holder was there on Television telling us that they were bringing our sworn enemies to New York for a civilian trial. Where in our Constitution does it say we have to give our legal rights to our enemies? In my mind I am asking who benefits from this stupidity, the families of the victims, the fire fighters who lost their brethren, the police and port authority who still hear the screams of the dying in their sleep. How about us, the general public who witnessed planes full of everyday people crashing into the buildings, or the bodies of innocent office workers hurling themselves out of the twin towers to keep from burning alive. None of the above is the answer in case you wondered. There is one answer that comes to mind but I can’t even fathom anyone could be so callous, It’s been stated that Attorney General Holders former law firm, the one that he will surely return to when this country finally regains its senses, represents several terrorists already. Could this be a motive? Are they that arrogant that they would even consider this?




      Are we so intimidated by European opinion that it is really necessary that we close Gitmo? We have been so smothered in political correctness that it is affecting our ability to survive as a world power. Who has earned the right to judge our system of government? What part of Europe didn’t we save from tyranny? What would China be today if we hadn’t stopped the Japanese in WWII? How have our enemies treated our captives, from WWII through Korea, Viet Nam, or in The Middle East? The people held in Guantanamo have it better than they did in their own countries. I call them people only because I am so influenced by political correctness that I find it hard to call them what they really are. In our history we have always been the savior of the world not the bad guy. This administration seems to be of the belief that we have a lot to apologize for. Even though I didn’t vote for him I actually thought that after Obama was sworn in, he would see the world for what it really is and temper his agenda for the good of America. I was wrong, his agenda seems to be to destroy the America we grew up in and remake it into a socialist society. To accomplish this goal he has to break the spirit of our people and render them impotent to his will. He has surrounded himself with a group of people who actually despise our country. Socialist, Communist and some of the loudest voices against American freedom are entrenched in his cabinet and his army of Czars.



      In history we learn what is in our future, if you bother to read the history of Germany and the Soviet Union you will see where we are headed. When the President goes to Copenhagen and signs the treaty on Global Warming, we as a sovereign nation will cease to exist. When we give others the right to make and enforce our laws we will have fought all wars, and left all our battle fields littered with our dead for nothing. America will no longer be the shinning city on the hill that so many have held in reverence. The United States that has been the benefactor to the world deserves better. Shout and shout loud, make these egotistical, narcissists hear your demands. Let them know that this is our land, and we’ll defend it with all we have.

  • WELCOME TO THE NATION OF THE P

    • From: sgin_NV
    • Description:

      obama in his speech in Asia declared to the Asians that America is "a nation of the Pacific.  He went further to say that he is the "first Pacific American President.

      In his trip to Asia he revealed that America will engage them as equal partners in the economy, diplomacy, and security.  

        I find this distrubing myself for several reasons. I dont think of Asia as one of our closest allys for one.

       Is obama working on a World Community? International law?

       Here is what Yamamoto had to say about obama.

       Takehiko Yamamoto, professor at Tokyo's Waseda University, warned that Obama should not forget the challenges China "poses to U.S. and Japanese security."

      "The United States has high expectations for closer ties with China," he said. "But when it comes to national security, China is a major concern and a destabilizing factor for the Japan-U.S. alliance."

      What are your thoughts?

  • No Obama Christmas

    • From: ExciteM
    • Description:

      Hard to believe what Obama is doing, but I checked this out on Truth of Fiction.

      The White House will celebrate "Winter Holiday" this year, not Christmas. I hope the people in this country wake up soon. Thought you might be interested in this information from the White House. This isn't a rumor - this is a fact. 

      I have a friend who is a talented artist. For several years she, among many others, has painted ornaments to be hung on the various White House Christmas trees. The White House sends out an invitation to send an ornament and informs the artists of the theme for the year.

      She got her letter from the WH recently. It said that they would not be called Christmas trees this year. They will be called Holiday trees. And, to please not send any ornaments painted with a religious theme.

      She was very upset at this development and sent back a reply telling them that she painted the ornaments for Christmas trees and would not be sending any for a display that left Christ out of Christmas.

      Just thought you should know what the new residents in the White House plan for the future of America . If you missed his statement that "we do not consider ourselves a Christian nation" this should confirm that he plans to take us away from our religious foundation as quickly as possible.

      It is true.....check out the link & look at the top right corner.....it even says "formerly WhiteHouseChristmas.Com"

  • WE THE PEOPLE.. " Must Read"

    • From: mcb1369
    • Description:

      Politicians are the only people in the world  who create problems and then campaign against them.

      Have you ever  wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?

      Have you ever wondered, if  all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have  inflation and high taxes?

      You and I don't propose a federal budget.  The president does.

      You and I don't have the  Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of  Representatives does.

      You and I don't write the tax code, Congress  does.

      You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does.

      You  and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve  Bank does.

      One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one  president, and nine Supreme Court justices equates to 545 human  beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally,  and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague  this country.

      I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve  Board because that problem was created by the  Congress.  In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty  to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central  bank.

      I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a  sound reason.. They have no legal authority.  They have no  ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a president to do one  cotton-picking
      thing.  I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash.  The  politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what  the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's responsibility  to determine  how he votes.

      Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy  convincing you that what they did is not their fault.   They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.
      What  separates a politician from a normal human being is an  excessive amount of gall.  No normal  human being would have the gall of a  Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating  deficits..  The president can only propose a budget.   He cannot force the Congress to accept  it.

      The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the  land, gives sole responsibility to the House of  Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes.  Who is the speaker of the House?   Nancy Pelosi.  She is  the leader of the majority party.  She and  fellow House members, not the president, can approve any budget they want.  If the president vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if  they agree  to.

      It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million can  not replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts -- of  incompetence and irresponsibility.  I can't think of a  single domestic problem  that is not traceable directly to those 545 people.  When you fully  grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal  government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to  exist.

      If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it  unfair.

      If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in  the red ..

      If the Army &Marines are in  IRAQ ,  it's because they want them in IRAQ

      If they do not  receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available  to the people, it's because they want it that way.

      There are no  insoluble government problems.

      Do not let these 545 people shift  the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can  abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to  regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can  take this power.  Above all, do not let them con you into  the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like "the  economy," "inflation," or "politics" that prevent them from doing  what they take an oath to do.

      Those 545 people, and they  alone, are responsible.

      They, and they alone, have the  power.

      They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the  people who are their bosses.

      Provided the voters have the  gumption to manage their own employees.

      We should vote all of  them out of office and clean up their mess!

  • Taxpayers may again receive St

    • From: WJC55
    • Description:
      Sometime later this year, we Taxpayers may again receive an Economic
      Stimulus Payment. The Obama Administration is very excited about this
      new program. Let me try to explain to you how it works using a simple
      Q and A format:

      Q. What is an Economic Stimulus payment?
      A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers.

      Q. Where will the government get this money?
      A. From taxpayers.

      Q. So the government is giving me back my own money?
      A. Only a smidgen.

      Q. What is the purpose of this payment?
      A. The plan is that you will use the money to purchase a
      high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy.

      Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China?
      A. Shut up.

      Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the US economy by
      spending your stimulus check wisely:

      If you spend the stimulus money at Wal-Mart, the money will go to China.
      If you spend it on gasoline, your money will go to the Arabs.
      If you buy a computer, it will go to India.
      If you buy fruit and vegetables, it will go to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala.
      If you buy a car, it will go to Japan.
      If you purchase useless stuff, it will go to Taiwan.
      If you pay your credit cards off, or buy stock, it will go to
      management bonuses and they will hide it offshore.

      Instead, keep the money in America by:

      1 Spending it at yard sales
      2 Going to ball games
      3 Spending it on hookers
      4 Buying beer
      5 Getting tattoos

      These are the only American businesses still operating in the U.S.,
      so, the best suggestion is you go to a ball game and drink beer with a
      tattooed hooker that you met at a yard sale.

  • DIVORCE AGREEMENT

    • From: zcat
    • Description:

      American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists et al:

      We have stuck together since the late 1950's, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce.... I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course.
      Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

      Here is a model separation agreement:

      Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

      We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military.
      You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore andRosie O'Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them).

      We'll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies,Wal-Mart, and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens. We'll keep the hot
      Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO's and rednecks. We'll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood ..

      You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us.. You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.

      We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values.. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N... but we will no longer be paying the bill.

      We'll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

      You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors. We'll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a
      right. We'll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem. I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute Imagine, I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the World.

      We'll practice trickle down economics and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot. Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name, our flag, and "In God We Trust".

      Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

      Sincerely,
      John J. Wall
      Law Student and an American

       

      P.S. Also, please take Ted Turner, Sean Penn, Martin Sheen, Barbara Streisand, &
      Jane Fonda with you.
