Greetings from rainy Iraq, yes rainy, lightning, thunder and light showers. What a week, lots going on. As I watch and read the news so much makes me sick to my stomach. I wonder what the country will be like when I get home, definitely different than when I left 2 years ago.
Public Schools: three reports today, one Detroit students, 69% below minimum standards, wow, let’s just throw more money at them! Let’s start teaching the three Rs again and maybe some C (computer)! Quite teaching all this social change stuff and get back to the basics. Also teach true history and government, not the watered down politically correct version. Two an 8 year old is given an assignment, draw something that reminds you of Christmas (surprised she did not say winter holiday) and the student had just got back from visiting a Catholic Shrine and drew a picture of Jesus on the Cross. Well guess what that got him, a trip home and a recommendation for counseling, seems the teacher thinks this shows tendency to violence. Third a third grader in a rest period of some kind, students allowed to sleep, read book, relax play games, the student pulled out her Bible and started to read, the teacher told her to put it away, when the student questioned because it is a book, was told not appropriate reading material. But schools all over the country make students read about homosexuality and their relations. You cannot make this stuff up!
Climate Change: This continues to be a hot topic this week. I believe in climate change, 4 times a year, (summer, winter fall, spring) even here in the desert! This is an unsettled science. There is no way we have enough accurate data to predict where the climate is going. Check out this link for article 100 reasons climate change is natural www.dailyexpress.co.uk/post/view/146138 has very good commonsense reasons. I believe from what I have watched and read that the main reason the underdeveloped countries are pushing so much for this is for the U.S. and other rich countries to give them billions of dollars. It is all about control and world governance. They want to reduce our dependence on foreign oil, “drill baby drill”! Build nuclear power plants, more refineries, wind turbines and solar fields. Funny how the late Ted Kennedy was for green energy until they wanted to put wind turbines in the ocean off his beach, that they want to build a solar farm in a desert in California, but the environmentalist will not let them because it will mess up the eco system. We need to tell the environmentalist to go fly a kite and do the things for this country to help us survive. The environmentalists get their panties in a wad anytime someone wants to build something. We are sending so many jobs overseas and they are part of the reason.
Healthcare: This just needs to stop right now! The Democrats do not want to play with the Republicans and want it their way, expansion of government, take over healthcare, socialize America! They will not entertain any Republican ideas, develop their bill behind closed doors, and expect the American People to rubber stamp their 2000 page joke! They need to start over and listen to the people. Over 9 million pink slips have been sent to Washington, that is over 16,000 per Congressman and Senator, telling them to stop the healthcare bill and stop spending, do you think the Dems are listening, I don’t. The career representatives need to be booted out ASAP! They think they are above us, that we don’t know what is good for us, they it is their money, THEY WORK FOR US! The Dems just passed the 1.1 trillion dollar spending bill with over 5,000 yes 5,000 earmarks better known as PORK, if they were serious about helping the nation they would have been taken out. Look at Senator Schumer, he recently flew a shuttle flight to Washington, hats off to him flying commercial, but it was time to leave the gate, he was asked to end his cell phone call after the announcement was made to the plane, he asked to finish his call, he was politely told to turn his phone off the plane could not leave until he did. He got mad, ended his call and as the flight attendant walked away called her a B----H, is that how you act, that just shows how these career politicians think they are above all rules, and laws. If you or I did that they would have thrown us off the plane which is what they should have done to him.
Florida Senate Seat: Today, reported that Rubio and Crist are even in the polls. Never have been too sure about Crist, seems pretty moderate, I looked up Rubio on his website, looks like my kind of man, a fresh face, pro-smaller government, pro-less taxes, pro-legal immigration, pro-life, pro-gun! Will keep an eye on him.
Out of Control Spending: Just a little while ago the House Dems passed a 155 billion dollar jobs bill, guess the billions in stimulus are not working, Duh! They also passed 290 billion dollar increase in the national debt limit. Is anyone out there getting upset like me with this spending? As I have said before, we are not their ATM machine! This all has to get paid back someday! They need to be stopped!!!
Cool Beans: Today a Independent Senator proposed a 767 page amendment to the healthcare bill, so to slow things down, a Republican Senator required it to be read before it could be voted on. Cool, that way people would know what is in it since the Dems don’t want to play fair an let people read what is being proposed. Well it was being read for three hours, was stopped when the Senator who proposed the amendment withdrew it. Guess it wasn’t too important.
Hope you find these things interesting, thought provoking and mad! Write/call/email your representatives and tell them to stop!!
Pray for our Country!
Pray for our Troops!
What do you think?
