Do not bother to pass this on to those who feel the Muslims are being mistreated, they will say it is all a lie, made up by the Republicans to make Obama and Clinton look bad. THIS IS A TRUE STORY...and a dirty one. You've probably seen this and it will just fire you up again when you were just cooling off, but it’s worth reminding ourselves lest we forget. - Cynthia Lee Meyers – You need to read this true account of what happened to our Ambassador Stevens and the other 3 who died. If this doesn't make you mad...............Cynthia Lee Myers Wanted to share the truth of what happened over in Libya, you will not find this in the media yet but it aired on FNC.....please read... "Here is my story. A week out the Embassy in Tripoli began receiving multiple tips about an Al Queda cell in the area planning an attack on 9/11 in response to the killing of Bin Laden. For the next several days, the State Department and White House (WH) were asked for a security force and were denied at least six times. Ambassador Stevens and his team were given the all clear that the Consulate in Benghazi was safe and there was no need for a security force other than his three personal guards (One being my cousin) and a few Libyans who were not armed. Then the attack and murders occurred. Immediately the WH claimed it was a protest gone bad over a YouTube video. Obama made a quick speech in the Rose Garden on Sept.12 before catching a plane to Vegas to campaign. He made a generic statement at the end of his speech after placing the blame on an overheated protest over the video. He said "No act of terror will shake the resolve of America.” Later that day and over the next 2 days, the liberal media began saying Ambassador Stevens and the other three men died of smoke inhalation. This was not the case. Out of respect for my cousin, I'm not going to be specific about his murder. However Ambassador Stevens was brutally murdered. His genitals were cut off, he was sodomized and beaten and cut and stabbed and burned. He was drug thru the streets and left for dead. This is an eyewitness testimony of a local doctor who found the Ambassador in a ditch and tried to save his life. He had no idea who he was. The other three men, including my cousin, met similar fates. And deaths due to smoke inhalation is a 100% fabricated LIE. The next week I drove my aunt and Uncle and 2 others to DC to receive his body. We met with Hillary Clinton, Leo Panetta, and Susan Rice. ALL of whom apologized and said it was a protest gone bad over a video and exited the area. Next Obama entered with the same story and didn't apologize and wasn't sympathetic. My aunt cried to this man and all he did was hand her flowers and walk away. I tried to get his attention, but didn't. I got upset and yelled liar to him, he kept walking. Then a secret service agent grabbed my arm and led me to a room where I was held till the proceedings were over. America, I saw firsthand how cold this man is. What kind of liar he is. Most of you haven't a clue about this tyrant and yet you support him. And act like every word he says is Gospel. These murders and the fast and furious cover ups make Watergate look like, a kid who told his bff's secret to the class. THIS PART YOU DON'T KNOW, BUT SHOULD. AMERICAN VALOR,BENGHAZI, LIBYA: The stunning part of this story is that Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty killed 60 of the attacking force. Once the compound was overrun, the attackers were incensed to discover that just two men had inflicted so much death and destruction. The news has been full of the attacks on our embassies throughout the Muslim world, and in particular, the deaths of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others in Benghazi, Libya. However, there's a little known story of incredible bravery, heroics, and courage that should be the top story. So what actually happened at the U.S. embassy in Libya? We are learning more about this every day. Ambassador Stevens and Foreign Service officer Sean Smith, along with administrative staff, were working out of temporary quarters due to the fact that in the spring of 2011 during the so-called Arab Spring, the United States cut ties with then president Moammar Gadhafi. Our embassy was looted and ransacked, causing it to be unusable. It is still in a state of disrepair. Security for embassies and their personnel is to be provided by the host nation. Since Libya has gone through a civil war of sorts in the past 18 months, the current government is very unstable, and therefore, unreliable. A well-organized attack by radical Muslims was planned specifically targeting the temporary U.S. embassy building. The Libyan security force that was in place to protect our people deserted their post, or joined the attacking force. Either way, our people were in a real fix. And it should be noted that Ambassador Stevens had mentioned on more than one occasion to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, that he was quite concerned for his personal safety and the welfare of his people. It is thought that Ambassador Stevens was on a "hit list". A short distance from the American compound, two Americans were sleeping. They were in Libya as independent contractors working an assignment totally unrelated to our embassy. They also happened to be former Navy Seals. When they heard the noise coming from the attack on our embassy, as you would expect from highly trained warriors, they ran to the fight. Apparently, they had no weapons, but seeing the Libyan guards dropping their guns in their haste in fleeing the scene, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty snatched up several of these discarded weapons and prepared to defend the American compound. Not knowing exactly what was taking place, the two Seals set up a defensive perimeter. Unfortunately Ambassador Stevens was already gravely injured, and Foreign Service officer, Sean Smith, was dead. However, due to their quick action and suppressive fire, twenty administrative personnel in the embassy were able to escape to safety. Eventually, these two courageous men were overwhelmed by the sheer numbers brought against them, an enemy force numbering between 100 to 200 attackers which came in two waves. But the stunning part of the story is that Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty killed 60 of the attacking force. Once the compound was overrun, the attackers were incensed to discover that just two men had inflicted so much death and destruction. As it became apparent to these selfless heroes, they were definitely going to lose their lives unless some reinforcements showed up in a hurry. As we know now, that was not to be. I'm fairly certain they knew they were going to die in this gun fight, but not before they took a whole lot of bad guys with them! Consider these tenets of the Navy SEAL Code: 1) Loyalty to Country, Team and Teammate 2) Serve with Honor and Integrity On and Off the Battlefield 3) Ready to Lead, Ready to Follow, Never Quit 4) Take responsibility for your actions and the actions of your teammates 5) Excel as Warriors through Discipline and Innovation 6) Train for War, Fight to Win, Defeat our Nation's Enemies, and... 7) Earn your Trident every day (http://www.navyseals.com/seal-code-warrior-creed). Thank you, Tyrone and Glen. To the very last breath, you both lived up to the SEAL Code. You served all of us well. You were courageous in the face of certain death. And Tyrone, even though you never got to hold your newborn son, he will grow up knowing the character and quality of his father, a man among men who sacrificed himself defending others.

Dear Abby, My husband has a long record of money problems. He runs up huge credit card bills and at the end of the month, if I try to pay them off, he shouts at me, saying I am stealing his money. He says pay the minimum and let our kids worry about the rest, but already we can hardly keep up with the interest.
Also he has been so arrogant and abusive toward our neighbors that most of them no longer speak to us. The few that do are an odd bunch to whom he has been giving a lot of expensive gifts, running up our bills even more.
Also, he has gotten religious. One week he hangs out with Catholics and the next with people who say the Pope is the Anti-Christ, and the next he's on his knees 7 times a day with Muslims.
Finally, the last straw. He's demanding that before anyone can be in the same room with him, they must sign a loyalty oath.
It's just so horribly creepy!
Can you help?
Signed, Lost
***********************************************
Dear Lost,
Suck it up and stop whining, Michelle!
You're getting to live in the White House for free, travel the world, and have others pay for everything for you.
You can divorce the jerk any time you want, but the rest of us are stuck with the idiot for 3 more years. Signed, Abby

CATCHING PIGS - THIS IS THOUGHT PROVOKING.
There was a chemistry professor in a large college that had some exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in the lab, the professor noticed one young man, an exchange student, who kept rubbing his back and stretching as if his back hurt. The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had seen shot while fighting communists in his native country who were trying to overthrow his country's government and install a new communist regime. In the midst of his story, he looked at the professor and asked a strange question. He asked: "Do you know how to catch wild pigs?"
The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch line. The young man said that it was no joke.
"You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come every day to eat the free corn. "When they are used to coming every day, you put a fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming. When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn again and you put up another side of the fence. "They get used to that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all four sides of the fence up with a gate in the last side.
"The pigs, which are used to the free corn, start to come through the gate to eat that free corn again. You then slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd. Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon they go back to eating the free corn.They are so used to it that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for themselves, so they accept their captivity."
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what he sees happening in America. The government keeps pushing us toward Communism/Socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for unearned income, tax exemptions, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc. while we continually lose our freedoms, just a little at a time. One should always remember two truths: There is no such thing as a free lunch, and you can never hire someone to provide a service for you cheaper than you can do it yourself.
If you see that all of this wonderful government "help" is a problem confronting the future of democracy in America, you might want to send this on to your friends.
If you think the free ride is essential to your way of life, then you will probably delete this email. But, God help us all when the gate slams shut!
Quote for today: "The problems we face today are there because the people who work for a living are now outnumbered by those who vote for a living."

Leaders are made, not born. Leadership is forged in times of crisis. It's easy to sit there with thumb up your butt and talk theory. Or send someone else's kids off to war when you've never seen a battlefield yourself. It's another thing to lead when your world comes tumbling down. On September 11, 2001, we needed a strong leader more than any other time in our history. We needed a steady hand to guide us out of the ashes. A hell of a mess, so here's where we stand.
We're immersed in a bloody war now with no plan for winning and no plan for leaving. But our soldiers are dying daily.
We're running the biggest deficit in the history of the world, and it's getting worse every day!
We've lost the manufacturing edge to Asia , while our once-great companies are getting slaughtered by health care costs.
Gas prices are going to skyrocket again, and nobody in power has a lucid plan to open drilling to solve the problem. This country has the largest oil reserves in the WORLD, and we cannot drill for it because the politicians have been bought by the flea-hugging environmentalists.
Our schools are in a complete disaster because of the teachers union.
Our borders are like sieves and they want to give all illegals amnesty and free healthcare.
The middle class is being squeezed to death every day.
These are times that cry out for leadership.
But when you look around, you've got to ask: 'Where have all the leaders gone?' Where are the curious, creative communicators? Where are the people of character, courage, conviction, omnipotence, and common sense? I may be a sucker for alliteration, but I think you get the point.
Name me a leader who has a better idea for homeland security than making us take off our shoes in airports and throw away our shampoo? We've spent billions of dollars building a huge new bureaucracy, and all we know how to do is react to things that have already happened.
Everyone's hunkering down, fingers crossed, hoping the government will make it better for them. Now, that's just crazy... Deal with life. Name me an industry leader who is thinking creatively about how we can restore our competitive edge in manufacturing. Who would have believed that there could ever be a time when 'The Big Three' referred to Japanese car companies? How did this happen, and more important, look what Obama did about it!
Name me a government leader who can articulate a plan for paying down the debit, or solving the energy crisis, or managing the health care problem. The silence is deafening. But these are the crises that are eating away at our country and milking the middle class dry.
I have news for the Chicago gangsters in Congress. We didn't elect you to turn this country into a losing European Socialist state. What is everybody so afraid of? That some bonehead on NBC or CNN news will call them a name? Give me a break. Why don't you guys show some spine for a change?
Had Enough? Hey, I'm not trying to be the voice of gloom and doom here. I'm trying to light a fire. I'm speaking out because I have hope - I believe in America ... In my lifetime, I've had the privilege of living through some of America 's greatest moments. I've also experienced some of our worst crises: The 'Great Depression,' 'World War II,' the 'Korean War,' the 'Kennedy Assassination,' the 'Vietnam War,' the 1970's oil crisis, and the struggles of recent years since 9/11. Make your own contribution by sending this to everyone you know and care about. It's our country, folks, and it's our future. Our future is at stake!
Next ELECTION,,,,,,,Are YOU going to VOTE for the "CHANGES" we need or do nothing but pay Homage and TAXES to Queen Hillary??
Share this before there is no way to SAVE OUR U.S.A. !!!

Remember Lee Iacocca
This may be considered 'political' but it is worth reading. Am I the only person who cannot believe how America has declined in such a short time? By the way, the whole 'common core' thing? This country made more innovations than any other in the last 200 years without this screwy approach to education. Henry Ford made it, we went to the moon without it, computers, telephones, tv, farming, the list goes on and on of what we were capable of. Wake up people, stand up for family, decency, common sense and freedom while we still can!!
****************************************** Remember Lee Iacocca, the man who rescued Chrysler Corporation from its death throes? He's now 82 years old and has a new book, 'Where Have All The Leaders Gone?
Interesting to note Iacocca is a Democrat.
Lee Iacocca said:
“Am I the only guy in this country who’s fed up with what’s happening? Where the hell is our outrage with this so called president? We should be screaming bloody murder? We’ve got a gang of tax cheating clueless leftists trying to steer our ship of state right over a cliff. We’ve got corporate gangsters stealing us blind, and we can’t even run a ridiculous cash-for-clunkers program without losing $26 billion of the taxpayers’ money, much less build a hybrid car. But instead of getting mad, everyone sits around and nods their heads when the politicians say “Trust me – the economy is getting better…”
Better? You’ve got to be kidding. This is America … not the damned ‘Titanic’. I’ll give you a sound bite: ‘Throw all the Democrats out along with Obama!’
You might think I’m getting senile, that I’ve gone off my rocker, and maybe I have. But someone has to speak up, I hardly recognize this country anymore.
The most famous business leaders are not the innovator but the guys in handcuffs. While we’re fiddling in Afghanistan, Iran is completing their nuclear bombs and missiles and nobody seems to know what to do. And the liberal press is waving ‘pom-poms’ instead of asking hard questions. That’s not the promise of the ‘America’ my parents and yours traveled across the ocean for … I’ve had enough. How about you?
I’ll go a step further. You can’t call yourself a patriot if you’re not outraged. This is a fight I’m ready and willing to have. The biggest ‘C’ is Crisis! (Iacocca elaborates on nine C’s of leadership with crisis being the first.)

Famous Presidential Lies – Written by: To The Point News
LBJ: We were attacked (in the Gulf of Tonkin)
Nixon: I am not a crook
GHW Bush: Read my lips - No New Taxes
Clinton: I did not have sex with that woman...Miss Lewinski
GW Bush: Iraq has weapons of mass destruction
Obama: I will have the most transparent administration in history. The stimulus will fund shovel-ready jobs. I am focused like a laser on creating jobs. The IRS is not targeting anyone. It was a spontaneous riot about a movie. If I had a son. I will put an end to the type of politics that "breeds division, conflict and cynicism". You didn't build that! I will restore trust in Government. The Cambridge cops acted stupidly. The public will have 5 days to look at every bill that lands on my desk It's not my red line - it is the world's red line. Whistle blowers will be protected in my administration. We got back every dime we used to rescue the banks and auto companies, with interest. I am not spying on American citizens. Obama Care will be good for America. You can keep your family doctor. Premiums will be lowered by $2500. If you like it, you can keep your current healthcare plan. It's just like shopping at Amazon. I knew nothing about "Fast and Furious" gunrunning to Mexican drug cartels. I knew nothing about IRS targeting conservative groups. I knew nothing about what happened in Benghazi I have never known my uncle from Kenya who is in the country illegally and that was arrested and told to leave the country over 20 years ago. And, I have never lived with that uncle. [He finally admitted (12-05- 2013) that he DID know his uncle and that he DID live with him.] I am not a Muslim from another country. I did not enter college as a foreign student and defraud the federal government of student loans.
And the biggest one of all:
"I, Barrack Hussein Obama, pledge to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States of America.”
I believe we have a winner!

Tuesday, June 3, 2014
Of outrage and treasonThe occupant of the Oval Office Saturday announced the release of Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl in exchange for five of the most dangerous terrorists in custody. The elated father of Sgt. Bergdahl, Bob, took the podium at the White House and said, "I'd like to say to Bowe right now, who is having trouble speaking English, "bism allah alrahman alraheem. I am your father, Bowe." The President smiled his approval. No mainstream media, nor did the White House, translate the phrase. They all just put in parenthesis "(speaks in Pashto)." Father Bob, sporting a traditional Islamic beard, said from the White House: "In the name of Allah, the most gracious, and most merciful." It is the phrase that opens every chapter of the Koran. The details that have emerged since then are alarming. They appear to be pieces of a puzzle that implicate Bergdahl as a deserter and the President as a lawbreaker who may have committed treason. The Administration rolled out their faithful liar for the talk shows — National Security Advisor, the infamous Susan Rice of the Benghazi catastrophe, said, "Sergeant Bergdahl wasn't simply a hostage; he was an American prisoner of war captured on the battlefield." Rice, who had said the attack in Benghazi was a spontaneous reaction to an anti-Mohammad video, was on point spinning another yarn for it seems that Bergdahl actually deserted and converted to Islam. His father would seem to have confirmed such. The UK Daily Mail reports that Afghan intelligence officials say Bergdahl converted to Islam and was training his "captors" in US ambush tactics. The NY Times reports "Sometime after midnight on June 30, 2009, Pfc. Bowe Bergdahl left behind a note in his tent saying he had become disillusioned with the Army, did not support the American mission in Afghanistan and was leaving to start a new life." There are reports that two soldiers were killed in an ambush while searching for Bergdahl. But there is a deeper issue than Bergdahl. The President, according to lawmakers and prosecutors, violated the laws which require him to notify Congress 30 days before any transfer of terrorists from Guantanamo Bay. Rice's admission that Bergdahl was a prisoner of war also means that the President not only violated the law, but may have committed a treasonous act. He traded affirmed enemies of the state for a deserter who aided and abetted the enemy, notwithstanding his alleged conversion to Islam. The president appears to have committed a high crime and misdemeanor--an impeachable offense—and aiding and abetting the enemy during wartime, a treasonous offense. He also bragged about it from the White House, lending an approving smile while Allah was being praised. Is it not obvious what is going on here? Jesus said in Matthew 24:4, "Take heed that no man deceive you." 2 John 7 says, "For many deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh. This is a deceiver and an antichrist." Embracing Allah means denying Christ. No two ways about it. Our nation has suffered a coup. Suspend your disbelief. Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!

PUZZLES FOR SMART PEOPLEYou all know I am just a simple man so I need a little help with the following puzzles. I just cannot seem to get my simple mind around how the unfolding Children's Crusade to America works. Any and all help explaining these conundrums is greatly appreciated. p.s. I sent these puzzles to the master illusionist David Copperfield and he had not gotten back to me yet. If he does I'll let you know how HE explains them. *************************************** Puzzle One: Imagine you are a 3 year old to 8 year old child. You are on your own without adults. You are asked to walk from Houston, Texas to Minneapolis, Minnesota on your own with no food or belongs to sustain you. Then you are asked to walk an addition 100 miles past Minnesota. Could you do it? How long would it take you as a 6 year old? That is the minimum distance these poor, helpless little ones have supposedly walked from Central America to the border of Texas, again, on their own. They didn't get lost. And they survived the journey without help (unless you buy in to the notion that a destitute out-of-work family run out of their homes by gangs and living in squalor somehow came up with $8,000 to $10,000 for EACH child to pay a coyote to take them to the border). Puzzle Two Now, on the map above, you must start somewhere in the green area. Let's make it easy and start where green meets orange, (where Central America meets Mexico) so that you had the least mileage by not having to cover the whole green area. Just start where the green meets the orange. Blue, of course, is water. Your task is to figure a route from the green area to the purple area without going into the blue area and while avoiding towns and cities in the orange area. The black line is the distance from the nearest town to Mexico's southern border that touches the green area to Laredo, Texas, one of the CLOSEST purple towns 1,220 miles across desert and mountains with no equipment or food or help. If orange had stopped these innocents where orange touches green, problem would not have occurred. However, what six year old do you know who could walk 1,220 miles (minimum), probably more like 1,500 miles on their own without dying? How many days would it take for a 6 year old to walk 1,220 miles without help, directions, food, sun protection, etc.? I am beginning to think that the truth of all this isn't being given fully to us, folks. Someone created and assisted this, and the media should be figuring out who it is, don't you think?

What really died in Auschwitz?
Here's an interesting viewpoint The following is a copy of an article written by a Spanish writer and published in a Spanish newspaper on January 15, 2011. It doesn't take much imagination to extrapolate the message to the rest 0f Europe - and possibly to the rest of the world.
"EUROPEAN LIFE DIED IN AUSCHWITZ" By Sebastian Vilar Rodrigez "I walked down the street in Barcelona and suddenly discovered a terrible truth - Europe died in Auschwitz ...
We killed six million Jews and replaced them with 20 million Muslims. In Auschwitz we burned a culture, thought, creativity, talent. We destroyed the chosen people, truly chosen, because they produced great and wonderful people who changed the world.
The contribution of this people is felt in all areas of life: science, art, international trade, and above all, as the conscience of the world.
These are the people we burned.
And under the pretence of tolerance, and because we wanted to prove to ourselves that we were cured of the disease of racism, we opened our gates to 20 million Muslims, who brought us stupidity and ignorance, religious extremism and lack of tolerance, crime and poverty, due to an unwillingness to work and support their families with pride.
They have blown up our trains and turned our beautiful Spanish cities into the third world, drowning in filth and crime. Shut up in the apartments they receive free from the government, they plan the murder and destruction of their naive hosts.
And thus, in our misery, we have exchanged culture for fanatical hatred, creative skill for destructive skill, intelligence for backwardness and superstition. We have exchanged the pursuit of peace of the Jews of Europe and their talent for a better future for their children, their determined clinging to life because life is holy, for those who pursue death, for people consumed by the desire for death for themselves and others, for our children and theirs.
What a terrible mistake was made by miserable Europe.
A lot of Americans have become so insulated from reality that they imagine America can suffer defeat without any inconvenience to themselves. Recently, the UK debated whether to remove The Holocaust from its school curriculum because it 'offends' the Muslim population which claims it never occurred. It is not removed as yet. However, this is a frightening portent of the fear that is gripping the world and how easily each country is giving in to it.
It is now more than sixty years after the Second World War in Europe ended. This e-mail is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the six million Jews, twenty million Russians, ten million Christians, and nineteen-hundred Catholic priests who were 'murdered, raped, burned, starved, beaten, experimented on and humiliated.' Now, more than ever, with Iran, among others, claiming the Holocaust to be 'a myth,' it is imperative to make sure the world never forgets.
This e-mail is intended to reach 400 million people. Be a link in the memorial chain and help distribute this around the world.
How many years will it be before the attack on the World Trade Center 'NEVER HAPPENED' because it offends some Muslim in the United States? If our Judeo-Christian heritage is offensive to Muslims, they should pack up and move to Iran, Iraq or some other Muslim country.
Please do not just delete this message; it will take only a minute to pass this along. We must wake up America , (also UK, Australia, Canada, Europe, and Africa) before it's too late.

Australia says NO -- This will be the second Time Julia Gillard has done this! She sure isn't backing down on her hard line stance and one has to appreciate her belief in the rights of her native countrymen.
A breath of fresh air to see someone lead with guts and determination.
Australian Prime Minister does it again! The whole world needs a leader like this!
Prime Minister Julia Gillard - Australia Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia, as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.
Separately, Gillard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying she supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques. Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT... Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.
'This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom. 'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language! 'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'
'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.
'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, 'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.
'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country that accepted you.

At 83, died on the 50th anniversary of the Signing of the Declaration of Independence along with John Adams.
Thomas Jefferson knew because he himself studied the previous failed attempts at government. He understood actual history, the nature of God, his laws and the nature of man. That happens to be way more than what most understand today. Jefferson really knew his stuff. A voice from the past to lead us in the future:
John F. Kennedy held a dinner in the white House for a group of the brightest minds in the nation at that time. He made this statement: "This is perhaps the assembly of the most intelligence ever to gather at one time in the White House with the exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone."
“When we get piled upon one another in large cities, as in Europe, we shall become as corrupt as Europe." -- Thomas Jefferson "The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not." ---- Thomas Jefferson "It is incumbent on every generation to pay its own debts as it goes. A principle which if acted on would save one-half the wars of the world." --- Thomas Jefferson "I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them." -- Thomas Jefferson "My reading of history convinces me that most bad government results from too much government." -- Thomas Jefferson "No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms." -- Thomas Jefferson "The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government." -- Thomas Jefferson "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants." -- Thomas Jefferson "To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical." -- Thomas Jefferson Thomas Jefferson said in 1802: "I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property – until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."

Pres. Obama and General Greene who died in Afghanistan
Two star Major General Harold Greene was killed in Afghanistan on August 8, 2014, while serving his country in pride for 34 years.
As of 1972, he was the highest ranking officer in the military killed in action since the Vietnam war. President Obama has not mentioned anything in regards to this highly decorated soldier yet he spoke highly of Robin Williams who committed suicide.
He was buried August 14, in the Arlington National Cemetery. Neither the President, Vice-President, Secretary of State, nor Secretary of Defense attended the funeral. President Obama was on vacation, playing golf at Martha's Vineyard. No flags were ordered to half mast, yet they were for Whitney Houston who also committed suicide. I find this very offensive and disrespectful to the veterans who have served our great country.
Today, President Obama is sending three 'White House representatives" to the funeral of the boy (man) who died in Ferguson, Missouri.
But, then again, why does this not surprise me.
That's about par for that two bit dork & illegal foreigner who got the U S Presidency bought for him by his power seeking buddies. (Only in America... the Chicago way...)

FAVORITE MARINE... CLEANING HOUSE This appears to be true www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/m/Military-Purge.htm#.U-uLDflSY9YIt would have been nice, had he been given the opportunity to meet Obama and tell him off like General Crystall did. My favorite MARINE gets the axe from our #1 Muslim. His last quote is as good as it gets! March 18, 2013 Gen. James Mattis, known to his troops as "Mad Dog Mattis," is retiring after 41 years of military service. The Marine Corps Times is calling Mattis the "most revered Marine in a generation." Mattis has been commander of the United States Central Command since 2010 and led the 1st Marine Division into Iraq in 2003. According to reports, President Barack Obama decided to force the Marine Corps legend out early because he rubbed civilian officials the wrong way, and forced them to answer tough questions regarding Iran .... Mattis was an inspirational leader of men and his powerful words will go down in history. Here are some of the best words the "Mad Dog" has had to offer. 1. "I don't lose any sleep at night over the potential for failure. I cannot even spell the word." (San Diego Union Tribune) 2. "The first time you blow someone away is not an insignificant event. That said, there are some assholes in the world that just need to be shot." (Business Insider) 3. "I come in peace. I didn't bring artillery. But I'm pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you screw with me, I'll kill you all." (said to the Iraqi leadership) (San Diego Union Tribune) 4. "Find the enemy that wants to end this experiment (in American democracy) and kill every one of them until they're so sick of the killing that they leave us and our freedoms intact." (San Diego Union Tribune) 5. "Marines don't know how to spell the word defeat." (Business Insider) 6. "Be polite, be professional but have a plan to kill everybody you meet." (San Diego Union Tribune) 7. "The most important six inches on the battlefield is between your ears." (San Diego Union Tribune) 8. "You are part of the world's most feared and trusted force. Engage your brain before you engage your weapon." (Mattis' Letter To 1st Marine Division) Gen. Mattis in 2006 9. "There are hunters and there are victims. By your discipline, cunning, obedience and alertness, you will decide if you are a hunter or a victim." (Business Insider) 10. "No war is over until the enemy says it's over. We may think it over, we may declare it over, but in fact, the enemy gets a vote." (Defense News) 11. "There is nothing better than getting shot at and missed. It's really great." (San Diego Union Tribune) 12. "You cannot allow any of your people to avoid the brutal facts. If they start living in a dream world, it's going to be bad." (San Diego Union Tribune) Gen. Mattis and Gen. Dempsey 13. "You go into Afghanistan, you got guys who slap women around for five years because they didn't wear a veil. You know, guys like that ain't got no manhood left anyway. So it's a hell of a lot of fun to shoot them. Actually it's quite fun to fight them, you know. It's a hell of a hoot. It's fun to shoot some people. I'll be right up there with you. I like brawling." (CNN) 14. "I'm going to plead with you, do not cross us. Because if you do, the survivors will write about what we do here for 10,000 years." (San Diego Union Tribune) 15. "Demonstrate to the world there is 'No Better Friend, No Worse Enemy' than a U.S. Marine." (Mattis' Letter To 1st Marine Division) 16. "Fight with a happy heart and strong spirit" (Mattis' Letter To 1st Marine Division) And one final quote for returning Veterans... 17. When you men get home and face an anti-war protester, look him in the eyes and shake his hand. Then, wink at his girlfriend, because she knows she’s dating a pussy. Is anybody surprised President Obama forced this man to retire early? In God We Trust

Airline snubs Army Ranger for not being '1st class'Outraged passengers intervene on behalf of decorated soldier linkOfficials with U.S. Airways are under attack by an outraged public for an incident on a Thursday flight from Portland, Oregon, to Charlotte, North Carolina, where a flight attendant apparently refused to allow an Army Ranger with a chest full of medals to hang up his jacket – because he wasn’t a first-class passenger. According to a report from WSOC-TV, other passengers reported 1st Sgt. Albert Marle asked the flight attendant for permission to hang up his uniform jacket to keep it from getting wrinkled. She refused his request because “the service is available only to first-class passengers,” the report said. First-class passenger Cliff Autrey told the station, “She got relatively belligerent with him that was against company policy. I offered to trade seats with him. He had a chest full of medals. Many deployments. All she had to say was ‘yes,’ but she said it was against company policy.” Others on the flight claimed the flight attendant yelled at passengers who tried to ask other attendants to intervene. “The lead flight attendant passed up a good opportunity to do a good deed,” added Autrey. Several other first-class passengers joined Autrey in offering their seats to Marle but the decorated solider declined and remained seated in coach. “I thanked him for his service and I asked him if I could hang his jacket up. I walked back up and hung the jacket simply behind my seat. There’s a difference between policy and doing what is right,” passenger Jon Dahlberg told the TV station. Marle could not be reached immediately, but military officials explained in detail to the station: “According to the insignias on his uniform, he is Ranger qualified (black and gold metal banner on his left pocket flap), he is Pathfinder qualified (metal insignia with the gold wing), he is Air Assault qualified (silver metal insignia with the wings and front view of a helicopter), he is Special Forces trained and most likely in a SF unit (aqua and gold metal banner over the Ranger banner), he is currently serving in an airborne unit (silver jump wings above his ribbons), SF unit crest designating his unit affiliation (metal insignia to the right of his right lapel).” On Twitter, one passenger, identified as Kirbs72, was infuriated, and eventually got a promise from the airline to investigate. He continued, “@usairways the airline that I have flown almost 100,000 miles on this year disgraced a heavily decorated soldier right in front of me. Shame.” And he said, “According to my flight attendant you have a policy to not hang the dress coats of Army Rangers not seated in first class. #antiusair.” And “@usairways I am the first class customer! None of us had coats. What’s the next excuse?” And “@usairways three of us in first class begged your poorly trained associate to hang this heroes decorated jacket. To no avail.” And “!USAirways when the man stepped in the plane your attendant SHOULD have said it would be my honor to hang your jacket sergeant.” And “USAirways not a soul in first class had a coat. Not one! I will share with the chairman that are also upset with me. Oh and the media.” Eventually came a response from US Airways. “@bkirby72 Please DM your record locator and we’ll forward an email to Flight Services for internal review. We’re following you now.” Said Twitchy, “That’s good news, but we wonder how many other soldiers have been treated as shabbily.” U.S. Airways also issued a statement to the TV station. “We’re certainly looking into how the situation was handled and we will be responding internally appropriately. American and U.S. Airways has a long history of supporting our military. We offer pre-checked bags and we work with many military-support organizations.”

French Families Rise Up to Say a Loud "No!" to Government Interfering with Traditional Marriage
Half a million march in Paris in support of the natural family.
Paris, France) Half a million people of all ages, including many families with children, took to the streets of Paris once more on Sunday to protest the French government's "anti-family" policies and to express their anger over legalization by stealth of surrogate motherhood.
Incredibly, the "Manif pour tous" (demonstration for all) continues to attract gigantic crowds who will not be deterred either by past failure or by governmental soothsaying. For the seventh time running, despite the legalization of same-sex "marriage," which brought hundreds of thousands into the French capital last year in protest, what seemed impossible two years ago came true once again: families are rising up to say "no."
The rally departed at 1 p.m. from the Porte Dauphine in the west of Paris and Covered over 4 miles to reach its endpoint as fixed by the police authorities: a relatively small square at the meeting point of several thoroughfares in front of Montparnasse train station where a podium had been installed. This was seen as an initial and calculated annoyance: not only was the venue far too small to contain the immense crowds but the course offered no good vantage point for photographers to give a realistic impression of their numbers.
According to police figures the rally attracted 70,000 people, slightly less than the official expected figure released on the eve of the march.
As an eyewitness it is difficult to believe these statements: I saw hundreds marching past, at least 20 or 30 abreast, many with small children, in dense formation, for several hours. The whole march covered a full 5 km from end to end (roughly 3.5 miles); many joined along the way and even more returned home upon reaching Montparnasse to allow the upcoming waves of protesters to complete the course. Two or three hundred thousand participants would seem a conservative estimate and probably 500,000 is much nearer to the truth.
And that is surprising. Mobilizing such numbers to protest against a clear-cut proposal with an imminent risk of execution such as the legalization of same-sex "marriage" was already an astonishing feat in secularized France. This time round, the rally's focal point was the condemnation of artificial fertilization and surrogate motherhood for same-sex couples: both were deliberately left out of the law last year by the socialist government, probably under the "Manif pour tous" pressure. And Francois Hollande has repeated that he has no intention of legalizing either under this term of his presidency.
But French families are more and more wary about Hollande and his team's promises. A circular sent last year to birth registrars and tribunals by the justice minister, Christiane Taubira, required the authorities to facilitate the inscription of children born of surrogate mothers abroad from French "customers" as French citizens in registries, without question, even though surrogacy is illegal in France.
While the French Constitutional Court resisted this measure last June, several decisions not to recognize this type of filiation that reached the European Court of Human Rights last month were criticized by the European judges for not having recognized homosexual couples' right to "private and family life." Courts are expected to follow the ECHR's ruling. A few weeks ago, the Constitutional Court gave its opinion that lesbian couples obtaining artificial insemination abroad should not be punished for this illegal action and that the female partner of the biological mother should be allowed to adopt the child without question, "in the child's best interest."
This was sufficient to trigger the massive response we saw on Sunday, in what is probably the only major demonstration in the world to have centered a protest on the ills of deliberately dissociating biological parenthood from "social" parenthood.
Other factors also played a role: the nomination of Najat Vallaud-Belkacem, a supporter of gender equality, as France's new education minister in August, a slap in the face for the "Manif pour tous" public, certainly prompted many not to lay down their blue and pink flags and take to the streets again in sweatshirts bearing the march's distinctive logo: a childlike drawing of a father, a mother, a boy and a girl. Many protesters had identity checks and were even kept in custody for wearing the sign last year. It has become a rallying sign all over France. The mention of her name by Ludovine de La Rochre and other speakers on Sunday prompted vigorous booing.
Sunday's event was also an occasion to say "no" to gender ideology, which is becoming more and more pervasive in the French school curriculum with which all public-funded schools including the Catholic ones must comply.
Government ministers such as Najat Vallaud-Belkacem frequently insist that "gender ideology" does not exist. Several websites in France keep track of its multiple appearances in the media, schools, and universities.
De La Roche made it clear she has no hope of seeing the same-sex "marriage" law or "Loi Taubira" repealed by this government, but she insisted that it should be a major theme during the presidential election coming up in 2017. Up to date, the few politicians who have agreed to dismantle homosexual "marriage" have announced that they will seek to "ameliorate" the existing civil union contract or "pacs" (civil solidarity pact) tailored for homosexual couples in 2001, but which is attracting ever-increasing numbers of "heterosexual" couples because of its simplicity and flexibility (it can be unilaterally ended without notice), to the detriment of marriage.
