Something Smells...
I grew up across the road from a pig farmer. Some days the smell was unbearable. Today something smells. And I can't blame the pigs this time.
Today the administration declared a national emergency because of the H1N1 (Swine Flu). This is your government in action, folks. They've had months to get ready for this thing. They had the media telling us that this is a 'crisis', everyone needs to get immunized, and if we don't it will be the end of civilization as we know it.
Well, they don't have enough vaccines. Big surprise. They won't until late November. Flu season is in full swing.
Seems like the health care crisis came just in time to ramp up the battle over health care reform. People this is what we get when the government is in charge. Do you really want them in charge of all health care?

Hey NFL...
Michael Vick can play for the NFL but Rush Limbaugh can't be an owner of an NFL Team. You are kidding, right?

Repeal 1913 by 2013..
Keep on the look out for a new movement to repeal the year 1913 by 2013. What happened in 1913? The constitution took a big hit that year. In 1913, the 16th and 17th Amendments were ratified and the Federal Reserve Act was enacted by Congress.
The 16th Amendment gave Congress the power to collect income taxes. This modified Article I, section 9, of the Constitution. This led to the creation of the IRS and the creation of the ‘FED.’
The 16th Amendment gave Congress the power to collect income taxes. This modified Article I, section 9, of the Constitution. This led to the creation of the IRS and the creation of the ‘FED.’
The 17th Amendment modified Article I, section 3, of the Constitution. Before this Amendment, State legislatures selected two U.S. Senators and those Senators were accountable to the states. This ensured that the states were represented in the Senate. The people were represented in the House. The Founding Fathers had the insight to see that the States needed to be represented in the Federal Government.
We need to get behind this and take our government back.
See Amendments and Articles below.

To the Congress:
Got this in an email. Had to share this.
The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775 - you have had 234 years to get it right; it is broke.
Social Security was established in 1935 - you have had 74 years to get it right; it is broke.
Fannie Mae was established in 1938 - you have had 71 years to get it right; it is broke.
The "War on Poverty" started in 1964 - you have had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our money is confiscated each year and transferred to "the poor"; it hasn't worked and our entire country is broke.
Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 - you've had 44 years to get it right; they are broke.
Freddie Mac was established in 1970 - you have had 39 years to get it right; it is broke.
Trillions of dollars were spent in the massive political payoffs called TARP, the "Stimulus",
the Omnibus Appropriations Act of 2009... None show any signs of working, although
ACORN appears to have found a new pot of gold, the American taxpayer.
And finally, to set a new record:
”Cash for Clunkers" was established in 2009 and went broke in 2009! It took cars
(that were the best some people could afford) and replaced them with high-priced
and less-affordable cars, mostly Japanese. A good percentage of the profits went
out of the country. And the American taxpayers take the hit for Congress' generosity
in burning three billion more of our dollars on failed experiments.
So with a perfect 100% failure rate and a record that proves that "services" you shove
down our throats are failing faster and faster, you want Americans to believe you can
be trusted with a government-run health care system?
20% of our entire economy?
With all due respect,
Are you crazy, are you just stupid, or do you just think that we are crazy or stupid?
