"What we're talking about is the end of our way of life. They want to control you. That's not some wild conspiracy tale —
they already control the banks, the auto industry, mostmortgages in this country.
They will have to ability to control the temperature inside your home with the passage of the cap-and-trade bill. And now they're trying to take control of one sixth of the U.S. economy — health care.
They're talking about taking over the Internet in the name of "neutrality" — who asked them to? Where's the problem there?
They are moving at the speed of light.
We need to get up off of our couches and get into their offices. Call your senators; show up in their office — peacefully and politely, but get there! If we don't stop this now, Obama will succeed in his goal to "fundamentally transform" America. " Quote from the Video
Please I urge you for the last time to watch this video, Realtors this affects our business, our income and our country.
This video shows exactly how and what is being done to take away our Freedom and Capitalism, and how they are managing to throw our constitution in the trash and pass these laws anyway.
Educate yourselves America with this link now!
Call your Senator to tell them to Vote No on Saturday.
We all are sick of this and want to ignore it and pretend this will go away but it will not and we can not stand idle..this is your last chance to Stop these Senators or tell them you will vote them out in 2010.
DO this for all your children, grandchildren and the rest of America. We must stop them now.
If you do nothing else all year pick up the phone and call your senator and tell them to Vote No on Saturday...Evil prevails when good men do nothing so get into action now!

Please pass this on and send help to our wounded heroes. I can not think of any Amercian we owe a bigger debt to than those that fight to keep America Free.
The United States Marine Corps Silent Drill Platoon, if you've never seen them, they are an incredible unit. This is a from a performance at the Aisne-Marne American Cemetery in France, which honors American World War One veterans.The fact that the drills are performed in complete silence with only the click and thump of the rifles is an amazing display of precision, dedication, and the ability of individuals to come together for a greater purpose. We do have the best of the best and Americans should be PROUD!!
As a Birthday gift help support the The Marine Team.
Project Valour IT's annual fundraiser for wounded warriors continues. They are within sight of their 35K goal, but need your help to get there! I can't think of a better way to celebrate the birth of our Corps than to boost the Marine team to its first victory ever.
Valour IT provides adaptive technology to help severely wounded vets recover faster, establish a support system, and regain their independence. Since the program began, every single dollar raised by Valour IT has been used to provide:
· 4,100+ voice activated laptops
· over 30 Wii systems
· and nearly 100 handheld GPS devices to wounded vets at:
Balboa Naval Hospital Naval Hospital, Camp Pendleton Brooke Army Medical Center Robert E. Bush Naval Hospital Madigan RMC Walter Reed AMC National Naval MC (Bethesda) and VA centers nationwide.
The men and women of the United States military have given their all to defend the values we Americans hold dear. For the price of a few sixpacks of beer or some dip and chips, you can tell them that you honor their sacrifices and their service. Please give generously. They did:
Please take the time to also read this great post about a "Great Marine."
You can find me where people, homes, opportunity and a bit of imagination intersect!

Read this and leave your comments if you are in agreement with this source of action for America 2009
GLENN BECK: I got a letter from a woman in Arizona . She writes an open letter to our nation's leadership:
"I am a home grown American citizen, 53, registered Democrat all my life. Before the last presidential election I registered as a Republican because I no longer felt theDemocratic Party represents my views or works to pursue issues important to me. Now I no longer feel the Republican Party represents my views or works to pursue issues important to me. The fact is I no longer feel any political party or representative in Washington represents my views or works to pursue the issues important to me. Instead, we are burdened with Congressional Dukes and Duchesses who think they know better than the citizens they are supposed to represent.
There must be someone. Please tell me who you are.
Please stand up and tell me that you are there and that you're willing to fight for our Constitution as it was written. Please stand up now.
You might ask yourself what my views and issues are that I would feel so horribly disenfranchised by both major political parties. What kind of nut-job am I? Well, these briefly are the views and issues for which I seek representation:
One, illegal immigration.
I want you to stop coddling illegal immigrants and secure our borders. Close the underground tunnels. Stop the violence and the trafficking in drugs and people. No amnesty, not again. Been there, done that, no resolution. P.S., I'm not a racist. This is not to be confused with legal immigration.
Two, the STIMULUS bill.
I want it repealed and I want no further funding supplied to it. We told you No, but you did it anyway. I want the remaining unfunded 95% repealed. Freeze, repeal.
Three: Czars.
I want the circumvention of our constitutional checks and balances stopped immediately. Fire the czars. No more czars. Government officials answer to the process, not to the president. Stop trampling on our Constitution, and honor it.
Four, cap and trade.
The debate on global warming is not over. There are many conflicting opinions and it is too soon for this radical legislation. Quit throwing our nation into politically-correct quicksand.
Five, universal healthcare.
I will not be rushed into another expensive decision that will burden me, my children, and grandchildren. Don't you dare try to pass this in the middle of the night without even reading it. Slow down! Fix only what is broken -- we have the best health care system in the world -- and test any new program in one or two states first.
Six, growing government control.
I want states rights and sovereignty fully restored. I want less government in my life, not more. More is not better! Shrink it down. Mind your own business. You have enough to take care of with your real [Constitutional] obligations. Why don't you start there.
Seven, ACORN.
I do not want ACORN and its affiliates in charge of our 2010 census. I want them investigated. I also do not want mandatory escrow fees contributed to them every time on every real estate deal that closes -- how did they pull that one off? Stop the funding to ACORN and its affiliates pending impartial audits and investigations. I do not trust them with taking the census with our taxpayer money. I don't trust them with any of our taxpayer money. Face up to the allegations against them and get it resolved before taxpayers get any more involved with them. If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, hello. Stop protecting your political buddies. You work for us, the people. Investigate.
Eight, redistribution of wealth.
No, no, no. I work for my money. It is mine. I have always worked for people with more money than I have because they gave me jobs -- and that is the only redistribution of wealth that I will support. I never got a job from a poor person! Why do you want me to hate my employers? And what do you have against shareholders making a profit?
Nine, charitable contributions..
Although I never got a job from a poor person, I have helped many in need. Charity belongs in our local communities, where we know our needs best and can use our local talent and our local resources. Butt out, please. We want to do it ourselves.
Ten, corporate bailouts.
Knock it off. Every company must sink or swim like the rest of us. If there are hard times ahead, we'll be better off just getting into it and letting the strong survive. Quick and painful. (Have you ever ripped off a Band-Aid?) We will pull together.. Great things happen in America under great hardship. Give us the chance to innovate. We cannot disappoint you more than you have disappointed us.
Eleven, transparency and accountability.
How about it? No, really, how about it? Let's have it. Let's say we give the buzzwords a rest and have some straight honest talk. Please stop trying to manipulate and appease me with clever wording. I am not the idiot you obviously take me for. Stop sneaking around and meeting in back rooms making deals with your friends. It will only be a prelude to your criminal investigation. Stop hiding things from me.
Twelve, unprecedented quick spending. Stop it now.
Take a breath. Listen to the people. Slow down and get some input from nonpoliticians and experts on the subject. Stop making everything an emergency. Stop speed-reading our bills into law. I am not an activist. I am not a community organizer. Nor am I a terrorist, a militant or a violent person. I am a parent and a grandparent. I work. I'm busy. I am busy, and I am tired. I thought we elected competent people to take care of the business of government so that we could work, raise our families, pay our bills, have a little recreation, complain about taxes, endure our hardships, pursue our personal goals, cut our lawn, wash our cars on the weekends and be responsible contributing members of society and teach our children to be the same all while living in the home of the free and land of the brave.
I entrusted you with upholding the Constitution. I believed in the checks and balances to keep from getting far off course. What happened? You are very far off course. Do you really think I find humor in the hiring of a speed reader to unintelligently ramble all through a bill that you signed into law without knowing what it contained? I do not.
` It is a mockery of the responsibility I have entrusted to you. It is a slap in the face. I am not laughing at your arrogance. Why is it that I feel as if you would not trust me to make a single decision about my own life and how I would live it but you should expect that I should trust you with the debt that you have laid on all of us and our children. We did not want the TARP bill. We said no. We would repeal it if we could. I am sure that we still cannot. There is needless urgency and recklessness in all of your recent spending of our tax dollars.
From my perspective, it seems that all of you have gone insane. I also know that I am far from alone in these feelings. Do you honestly feel that your current pursuits have merit to patriotic Americans? We want it to stop. We want to put the brakes on everything that is being rushed by us and forced upon us. We want our voice back.. You have forced us to put our lives on hold to straighten out the mess that you are making. We will have to give up our vacations, our time spent with our children, any relaxation time we may have had and money we cannot afford to spend on bringing our concerns to Washington . Our president often knows all the right buzzwords like unsustainable. Well, no kidding. How many tens of thousands of dollars did the focus group cost to come up with that word? We don't want your overpriced words. Stop treating us like we're morons.
We want all of you to stop focusing on your reelection and do the job we want done, not the job you want done or the job your party wants done. You work for us and at this rate I guarantee you not for long because we are coming. We will be heard and we will be represented.. You think we're so busy with our lives that we will never come for you? We are the formerly silent majority, all of us who quietly work, pay taxes, obey the law, vote, save money, keep our noses to the grindstone... and we are now looking at you.
You have awakened us, the patriotic freedom spirit so strong and so powerful that it had been sleeping too long. You have pushed us too far. Our numbers are great. They may surprise you. For every one of us who will be there, there will be hundreds more that could not come. Unlike you, we have their trust. We will represent them honestly, rest assured. They will be at the polls on voting day to usher you out of office.
We have canceled vacations. We will use our last few dollars saved. We will find the representation among us and a grassroots campaign will flourish.
We didn't ask for this fight. But the gloves are coming off. We do not come in violence, but we are angry. You will represent us or you will be replaced with someone who will.
There are candidates among us who will rise like a Phoenix from the ashes that you have made of our constitution.
Democrat, Republican, independent, libertarian.
Understand this. We don't care.
Political parties are meaningless to us
Patriotic Americans are willing to do right by us and our Constitution, and that is all that matters to us now.
We are going to fire all of you who abuse power and seek more. It is not your power. It is ours and we want it back. We entrusted you with it and you abused it. You are dishonorable. You are dishonest. As Americans we are ashamed of you. You have brought shame to us.
If you are not representing the wants and needs of your constituency loudly and consistently, in spite of the objections of your party, you will be fired.
Did you hear? We no longer care about your political parties. You need to be loyal to us, not to them.. Because we will get you fired and they will not save you.
If you do or can represent me, my issues, my views,please stand up. Make your identity known
You need to make some noise about it. Speak up. I need to know who you are
If you do not speak up, you will be herded out with the rest of the sheep and we will replace the whole damn congress if need be one by one.
We are coming.coming."Are we coming for you? Who do you represent? What do you represent? Listen. Because we are coming, We the people are comingI cound not believe that this woman has summed up exactly what we want this Administration to do, and if they are smart they will take this action and follow it so they will not be voted out in 2010!
Listen up Washington or be voted out in 2010 or sooner!

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
