Once upon a time the government had a vast scrap yard in the middle of a desert. Congress said, "Someone may steal from it at night." So they created a nightwatchman position and hired a person for the job.
Then Congress said, "How does the watchman do his job without instruction?" So they created a planning department and hired two people, one person to write the instructions, and one person to do time studies.
Then Congress said, "How will we know the night watchman is doing thetasks correctly?" So they created a Quality Control department and hired two people. One to do the studies and one to write the reports.
Then Congress said, "How are these people going to get paid?" So They created the following positions, a time keeper, and a payroll officer, Then hired two people.
Then Congress said, "Who will be accountable for all of these people?" So they created an administrative section and hired three people, an Administrative Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.
Then Congress said, "We have had this command in operation for one Year and we are $18,000 over budget, we must cutback overall cost."
So they laid off the night watchman.
One real time example: Does anybody remember the reason given for the establishment ofthe DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY ... during the Carter Administration?
No? Didn't think so! So we've spent several hundred billion dollars for an agency ... the reason for which not one person who reads this can remember!
But we looked it up: It was very simple ... and at the time, everybody thought it to be necessary.The Department of Energy was instituted on 8-04-1977 TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.
NOW IT'S 32 YEARS LATER AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS "NECESSARY" DEPARTMENT IS AT $24.2 BILLION A YEAR. THEY HAVE 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES;AND LOOK AT THE JOB THEY HAVE DONE! THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY, "WHAT ARE WE USING FOR BRAINS?" The night watchman could probably answer that question.
AND NOW WE ARE GOING TO TURN THE BANKING SYSTEM, HEALTH CARE AND THE AUTO INDUSTRY OVER TO THE SAME GOVERNMENT????????
If you read this far, congratulations, You now have another valued example besides Social Security, Medicare and the above that the Government already failed at running. I just had to pass this on and I hope you do too. Don't let the deception keep you from seeing we are making a difference and we need to put these extreme liberals back on the shelf where they belong with their idealist fantasies, no common sense and ability to ignore the failures of the past.
SO dilusional that they think this time it will be different, let them reinvent the wheel on their dollar not ours!
These are politicians, how long does it take for the Government and The American People to realize these are not businessman, they mess up any business they try to do with politics and they need to get out of the businesses in America or Vote them out in 2010.

If all the Congress had to accept the same Health Care they are designing especially for us, do you think this Plan would be the one? Click the Link below and let Congress know that you want them to take this healthcare too..Let your voice be heard, this petition will be given to the Democrats.
Apparently, this is a survey that tells Congress whether you think they should be forced to join the same types of health care plans as every other American and not have a special one of their own.
Do this if you want. Pass it on only if you want to.
When Congressman John Fleming learned that every one of the democrats is seeking via proposed legislation to exempt themselves from government health care (Thats how bad it will be!), he proposed an amendment that would require Congressmen and Senators to take the same health care plan that they would force on us. On Tuesday, the Senate health committee voted 12-11 in favor of the two-page amendment, H.Res 615, courtesy of Sen. Tom Coburn. Senator Coburn and Congressman Fleming are both physicians and Republicans.
The process is very simple. Regardless of your political beliefs, it sure seems reasonable that Congress should have exactly the same medical coverage that they impose on the rest of us. It is critical that you write to your democrat member of Congress as the Republicans have already signed it
H.RES.615. Title: Expressing the sense of the House of Representatives that Members who vote in favor of the establishment of a public, federal government run health insurance option are urged to forgo their right to participate in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP) and agree to enroll under that public option. Sponsor: Rep Fleming, John [LA-4] (introduced 7/8/2009) Cosponsors (49) Latest Major Action: 7/8/2009 Referred to House committee on House Administration.
Please forward this to as many people as possible.

I am for our Troops protecting Our Country and other nations..People get so upset that we are in other countries but what I wish they would understand is it is not about just helping out others for these Wars...
It is about keeping our backyards, neighborhoods and homes safe in America..How can they not understand that if we do not go and help now then we will be fighting these wars in our own backyards instead and our own children and loved ones will be dying because terriorism will spread like wildfire and these country's will be taken over by Extermists..
Get educated People, google Bridgette Gabriel and others that know what we are dealing with and have lost their homelands but are now here trying to save their New Adopted Homeland America!
Support our Troops!

Watch the History Channel..This is a great channel for more facts to put together today's truth.
I just watched a show yesterday Interviewing the people that held the First Global Warming meeting in 1988. Yes Al Gore was invited and attended.
The holders of the meeting said they picked the hottest day of the year and opened all the windows the night before and where happy that the Speaker of the Congress was sweating while presenting his facts.
Now 20 years later there is no global warming so they changed the name to Climate Change cause they had to account for all the Cold Drops in Temperature...We should give them the Big Chill and stop buying the Bull!
Al Gore made a great deal of money on his ideas and books but now the original holders of the meeting can not account for the extreme cold temperatures it said on the History Channel documentary!
Just like it said in the video on the blog I posted on the Copenhagen Treaty- the Original Starters of Green Peace are long gone since it has now fell into the wrong hands...Go Green is not saving the Planet but lining Green in a choice fews pockets...Be Aware America!
Very Interesting information...Pass it on!Picture by nowandthenimaging.com

During these trying times when the Government is trying to take away our free Enterprise, our freedom and our foundation of "One Nation Under God"
You have to wonder- Why is not every American down on our knees all day long praying for this Administration and for Mercy O' Lord?
O'Lord help us, Please hear us as we cry out to you.
God needs to open our ears and Help show America how to stop This Greed,Corruption and Loss of Our Free Enterprise and our Freedom Now.
Just today I heard a Women in Detroit on TV waiting to receiving free money/ The reporter asked these women repeatedly where the money was coming from. This was their answer "From Obama", calling it "Obama Money"
The reporter said, Who gave Obama the money? and these women said we don't know. again the reporter said well someone had to give Obama the money and they said. We don't know where he got it. All the women could say is "That is why we voted for him!"
I pray that these Americans will see that this money is not from Obama Let them see this is not from Obama, but from God. This is from you and me the hardworking taxpayers of America. This is from the working people's Taxpayers dollars.
We also need to pray to "Keep the stimulus money out of the hands of Evil"and give to those in need only.
Let the people see that they are losing their freedom to help who they want to help. I pray that the Government will not dictate who our taxpayer dollars will go to but that we the people will have the freedom to choose who we want to give money to and that they are truly in need not used to expand this government's agenda.
Should we not be able help our neighbor and love one another without the Government dictating who gets our funds?
We should be praying for what God's will is and for God to choose for us? We should be praying for God to Protect his People in America,
We spend much time in prayer this at our church and in my "Pray for America" group praying for this Administration.
Here is somethings that come into pray that are really powerful and I will pass them on and hope you will do the same.
"Dear Lord, You are glorious and faithful, Please forgive us our sins and the sins of all America Lord,
Let them see your Glory Lord, I pray that The White House will be filled with your Love Lord and You will open the hearts and eyes of every one in the White House and fill them with the Holy Spirit. Let them see your will O'Lord for this country and let them drop to their knees in your Glory O"Lord. You are the God of Israel and let them know that these are your chosen people.
Fill President Obama with dreams and visions Lord of your will. Let him fall in love with you, Jesus Fill his dreams with your face and let him seek your face Jesus. I rebuke the enemy and any evil to enter the White House in Jesus Name.
Let them change from any agenda that is not your will O'Lord..Have mercy on your people Lord and make this administration seek your will and your will alone God.Let them see Your awesome Power and Might and fill them with the Peace and Love that only you can bring..The everlasting Love and Peace that you have already given to us, Your Children.
Let the Muslim community see that You are the only God and that The Trinity is Three in One, Let the Muslim people see their confusion in the Trinity and I pray that Jesus you come into their dreams and show them that you are the Son of God and in part with the Holy Spirit, One God.
Reveal to all in the White House the real meaning of "One Nation under God" , shine your divine protection around all those in and about the White House...
Let them fall on their knees in Fear of You and only You God and seek only your will from this day forward. Let them know that their Creator is a good, kind and merciful Maker. Let them know that we are all made to love you and let them see how much you delight in each and everyone of us.
Let Revival start in the White House Lord and flow into all of America. Let them seek your face and know that you are the way the truth,the light and the love in the World that we are all searching for..That only you Lord can fill all our desires and bring us into your awesome Splendor and Glory. In Jesus Name.
"Pass it on!

I heard that Obama is not going to spend time in Copenhagen with the Climate Change (Copenhagen Treaty) but dig deeper and watch this video to be informed..
This does not mean that Obama will not sign this treaty just because they say he is not going to the Climate change at this point...Remember WaterGate Reporters were laughed at and insulted, the story was buried until 9 months later when the truth was revealed and then the Reporters were praised and celebrated.
We must watch everything these days and be a voice to protect Americans and our Freedom.. This is serious threat to our Freedom and we need to be aware of it..
*Subject: Obama to sign over US Sovereignty to New World Order in Copenhagen
This is not a joke. This is not some right wing paranoia scare. This is as real as it gets. This is the shining hour for socialists and don't think for a moment that they are not going to try to pull "end runs" every single day to circumvent the will of the people or to deceive them in any way possible. It's time to stand up to this socialist NAZI Schwartz Teufel and stop him in his tracks before he destroys our country!
