As law is not tought in high school(s)majority of the American public being less then laemen cannot fully understand 1a and 1b through 2a etc..Paragraphs with legal terms and blinding contradictions knowingly.We the people need paragraphs of 6th grade grammar stating EXACTLY what and EXACTLY how presented via the internet deemed as published thus who ever makes the most sense gets the vote and yes one can improve the interests of another idea in the interests of America and the worlds health and should the president not fallow through with these drafts whom ever should stand down for treason.A president should write/draft everything on their own and yes be that intelligent having years in preparation and passion No late entries No more blinding arguements as our lives rest in their hands this is by no means to be taken lightly or as a joke.As there are 50 states and 365 days in a year the President is the over see'r of all states cities and counties and to moniter funding of each each state visited is a vacation be it 1! day of golf.As ther is to be a secret to every service it needs re-created in that no media but one selected shal broadcast destinations or even know until that 1 media is chosen in silence and not break silence to the where abouts or become subject to imprisonment.To the presidents you are not a movie star you are a fate holder and America doe's not take that lightly anymore you are destroying us and the world all from the past are literally a joke I'd like to beat the [...] out of you in a ring legally and literally.
Should we leave Iraq the most dominate of numerous countries will take over.WE will be responsible for what happens to the people of Iraq.Under God United we stand as 1 as 1 we fail to uppose our Governments actions and for that we are obligated from start to finish,WE are responsible.Should we leave all other Nations who opposed Iraq will witness the unfortunate and see that the U.S. claiming to be Under God is blasphemy and that we are a selfish Nation counting and broadcasting only our multiple loss'.Should we leave and have to return as it will be our responsibility to return but we will return to a war with many.
Over the Land of the FREE and the Home of the BRAVE?
Does it?
It may still Wave but over the Land of What...? The Oppressed and Over Regulated too Busy buying T.V.s and the Latest Phone to See the Flag Removed from the Pole?
What have we Allowed Ourselves to Become? What Part of Our Soul have we Destroyed or Locked Away that Remembered Freedom and Liberty ?
Is our Comfort, Our Welfare so cheaply Bought with the Death of Freedom? Our Children Sold into Government Bondage for the Price of Liberty? What Evil, What Illness has Blinded the Citizens of this Great Nation to the Destruction of their Rights?
Are We Now ready to accept the Chains of Socialism at the Grave of the Constitution? Does Our Past Mean Nothing? Are there no Ardent Patriots to say,"This Far...NO Farther!!"
I have said that I am not sure we have the Caliber of Great Men today as we did at the Founding of this Country. I have said that we Lack the Pioneer Spirit that has Built this Nation. I have said that We As Citizens Do not Deserve Our Freedom if we Do Not Fight for every Single Scrap!
The person who fights for custody should only be allotted half medical,food and,clothing as they fight for the responsibility they are responsible for their own rent and utilities as they sought full custody they stated they at that moment not only wanted the responsibilty but could afford it as well.For the parent with least amount of custody the court must evaluate actual bills and calculate the exact amount that person can afford without exceeding that persons cost of living as it creates a vindictive personality and a failing of the ability to pay creates future imprisonment.AS FOR TODAY how many people can afford the cost of living and analyze the future sense.If the payee is institutionalized in any way the other due may collect their SSI etc with future with holdings from those times as in half. this is a hypothetical idea where as i write it in fact it is a good idea.
Much like vehicles when regulatory changes were made the Government employed a 500.00 dollar grant to those vehicles that did not pass smog and you have the option to sale your vehicle to the state.Now the same applies to digital transition boxs where in a state or Nation in its entirety is so affected should in fact be supplied.
I do not recall the city but one Cal. city offered sums of money to purchase homes and property and stated if they do not sale their homes may be seized TO BUILD A MALL which will raise property value and again push out low income surroundings which in turn leads to another town fallowing in the footsteps of another the city is not your yard or your home Govenors! Frivolous in nature unless it is a state emergency a home can not be seized without moral and a mall is not an emegency.
A deturrent in place of expantion though in turn population steadily grows these lights have developed into backing up city streets for those waiting to enter the freeway and those on the freeway approaching do to the heavy population and the disallowance of mergers with the speed of traffic which becomes an aspect of contradiction in traffic law.This product needs returned and placed in the Govenors garage.
Our Govenors state to struggle with state funding requests met;As he over see's every county and city this is what i witness1;Antique and relic homes being restored 2;freeway ramps beuatified with colored brick and concrete and,islands of concrete to beautify citys and there streets leaving roads torn and freeways crowded in an attempt to make everything a tourist attraction (that is a [...] to drive to because the roads and traffic sucks).THE NEGATIVE affect estimating the value of neighborhoods by the surroundings raising the cost of rent and value which in these areas known as down town(s) usually base the original homes of the city and that of low income housing and these methods push those into the streets as time continues with these principles city's and towns will be less likely to be tourist attractions but city's of pissed off vagrants and by know means a tourist attraction.
when you purchase a vehicle you own it there is no doubt it is your possesion in these times of a future recession it is time to re-think what is necassary and what is not;When You purchase a vehicle etc. it should be a 1-time transfer and title fee until the date that decide to re-sale then it becomes the new owners responsibilty of fee,s to pay the DMV yearly is to state that you do not still own that vehicle and is not palpable when you hold title.The discontinuance of this will allow America in these troubled times to save 100+ yearly in fee,s and is just one sacrifice that needs to be made in the interests of public and private citizens.Smog checks are completely plausible when considering world health. When a car dealership leases or holds title and as long as they do it is their duty to show the appreciation of business and pay title fee's until it is relinquished in your name/payed off.
I owned a 1/2 ton pick up truck and the DMV charged me a heavy road tax of 85.00 when i again pay as you do a state and federal tax for these roadways so on that factual basis i have been taxed twice and we should not agree to these illegalities as a whole.
Fast Trak violates equal opportunity and creates indifference these lanes are whats needed to allow the traffic to flow freely and safely within reason.
We pay a state tax in which our roadways are covered, to state the employment of tole roads may be deemed plausible "is legally invalid" when taxs are paid for proper economical planning ,if these freeways and highways are independantly owned it is subject to Government seizure for these failures of up-keep as a state entity.It is an encrouchment of a vast scale when you can estimate the amount of new drivers on the roadway each year.
As long as i can remember when you recieve a ticket you receive a date to appear TO CONTEST the ticket.Cal. now requires you to pay the fine first in order to contest and this is considered an admission of guilt or guilty as charged without findings of fact and is fundamentally unfair which violates the 14th Amen. and is an illegal action of the State(s).
Not allowing America to homeschool reachs inside every home and is an automatic infringement of freedom of choice when raising your child as if the Gov. is raising your child and you have already become subject to child protective services how much further will you allow them to control your home,when educational funding lacks and teachers are being fired in multiples and teacher student molestations seem to never end it is a wise decision to let the people of America decide how to teach their children as these parents and children are not Ward of the state.It is only common logic and good morals to allow those who can, to homeschool their children as it saves the State(s) money but regardless you are your childs parent you make your decisions this IS a tresspass!
IT has been said that the Gov. may tax the internet such as E-bay etc. on goods though when purchasing items you are purchasing whats been bought and the taxs have been paid upon purchase you pay frieght on what is called postage and taxs on transportation come with that postage. Congress has authorized postal agents to regulate the commerce and interstate taxs from one state to another.Therefor the taxs are being paid and are plausible to the Nations original terms but creating a tax on owned personal property where in taxs have been paid for prior to it is for the Gov. to tax twice and is illegal.As for the internet its self much like a phone bill a state tax is applied and considering are financial standpoint is just fine where it is at. (see "private property" clause of Amendment V ).

History tells us that in 1939 and 40 then President Roosevelt wanted to come to the aid of Briton. He was hampered by the Isolationists who thought if we just stayed out of the conflict we would be left alone. They were wrong then and they are wrong now. This is an ever shrinking world and any conflict can be spread easily across the globe by those who are out to do us harm.
In 1941 the Japanese with a yahoo from the Germans brought us straight into the horrors of war. The Germans thought that if we were tied up in the Pacific we wouldn’t be able to come to the aid of England and help in the European theatre. We had one thing going for us back then, pride and an attitude of accomplishment.
We had weathered to Depression after WWI and with American ingenuity picked ourselves up by the bootstraps and proudly worked our way out of the depression. No one was going to put us back in the hole without a fight. Men flocked to the recruiting centers by the millions. Those who were told they couldn’t pass the physical turned around and signed up with another branch of the service and kept doing so until they got in. The country went immediately into a war production mode and started putting out military products. The women took over the bulk of the production jobs as their men went off to war.
Casualties were in the thousands on many days yet the women of America stood tall and fighting back tears of worry about their loved ones built tanks, planes and jeeps by the thousands. Our government was out to win at all cost and little attention was paid to civilian casualties in the process. If there was a call to bring home the troops it wasn’t loud enough to be heard over the roar of industry. The war lasted what seemed like a lifetime to those who waited on the shore and even longer to those who marched in the mud of Italy and the dust of Algiers.
The Pacific war jumped from one bloody island to the next. Each taking a higher toll on our troops and their equipment. Our Navy fought to the death on the seas of the South Pacific finally turning defeat in one victory after another.
Speed forward about 60 years and we find another devastating attack on America, this time on our very shores. Thousands of men raced to the recruiters to sign up for our now all volunteer military. They did so with pride and the country stood behind them until the first casualties that is. The folks in the military knew the risks and were willing to accept the chance of being killed or wounded. It was the folks back home who had grown soft and comfortable in their lives that couldn’t take the heat. The press jumped on the liberal bandwagon and showed only the violence of the war never did you see the soldier helping children or carefully risking his own life to make sure an innocent civilian didn’t get hurt.
The press didn’t get the large shipments of body bags that they anticipated so they took to manufacturing stories of atrocities and violence against civilians. Men who had been risking their lives to protect the rights of these perpetuators of lies were yanked from the field and sent to prisons to await their trials. Stripped of all dignity and pride they were forced to put their lives in the hands of lawyers to prove their innocence. Senators and Congressmen and women charged them with all types of hideous crimes. Congressman Jack Murtha said that they were a disgrace to our country and shouldn’t even be called Marines.
Well they were wrong then and they are wrong now. Each of these men were tried and cleared of any wrong doing. Did anyone hear Murtha or his leftist constituents apologize? Do I sound a little bitter? If I do it is because I find it appalling that anyone in our government would be so twisted as to use something so vile as a political ploy. I have come to believe that the far left in this country will do anything to win the will of the people. Their friends in the media should get an A+ for their effort to destroy our morale.
Thank God there are a few people in this country who haven’t sipped the koolaide they are serving in Washington. To the men who have been cleared I say God Bless you. To those still fighting I say God Speed, to Murtha and his cronies I say eat my shorts.

As hard as I try I cannot understand the fact that people who are normally very intelligent, active in their communities and holding good jobs can be liberals. It doesn’t make any sense to be for higher taxes, to be all for amnesty and the fact that they buy into this crap about we went to war under false pretenses just blows me away. The democrats in the house and senate saw the same Intel that the president and his advisors did and came to the same conclusions. Go back and check out the records if you don’t believe me.
It’s just like Obama now saying he would put more troops in Afghanistan to bolster what we have there now. A few months ago he was all set to bring everyone home immediately. Just wait a few months and he will be known in his own mind as the one who orchestrated the victory strategy. Come on people, we were attacked by people who believe it is their destiny to destroy everything western civilization has built. Getting rid of a bad guy like Saddam was a bonus. I believe the President and his advisors knew that this would not be over quickly. I think they laid a stage for war to be fought in to keep it off our shores.
The losses we have suffered in Iraq are miniscule compare to other wars we have fought for lessor reasons. God knows every life is precious and has life changing consequences for those left behind but had these animals had their way without interference they wouldn’t stop until the world was in their power. Their belief whether you care to understand or not is that we are infidels and have no right to exist on this earth.
The ones who strap bombs full of nails and ball bearings to young women and children do so with the firm belief that they will go straight to heaven and be martyred by Allah. Suppose it was your supermarket that was targeted and your children, wives or husbands were in there standing innocently at the checkout counter, would that change your mind? If you think it wouldn’t happen, think again. They have absolutely no compassion for us or our children.
The people who are still blowing things up in Iraq are not everyday Iraqi’s, they are brainwashed imbeciles. Look at the market places that have opened and are operating freely and the activity of the people in the streets, yes they want their country back but not at the cost of the freedom they have achieved so far. We want our troops out as badly as some of the civilians want us out but just like them we don’t want out at the risk of jeopardizing the gains we have made in their behalf.
Have you noticed that when McCain or the President and his staff go to the war zone they do so in secret? They do not want to put our troops at risk protecting them. We have been hearing about Obama going to Afghanistan for days now, how would you like to be those troops that have the mission to protect him and his entourage ? Now he is planning a speech at the Brandenberg gate in Germany. He is actually comparing himself to Kennedy and Reagan, how egotistically sweet.
Are you liberal’s blind to everything that is going on in the world? Obama is like all the other politicians, he’ll lie and confuse to get what he wants and that’s the presidency. Once he has it, Heaven help us and hope his ego doesn’t get in the way of our freedom. It is the very same tact that Chavez used to get elected in Venezuela now he is running for dictator for life.
I am ashamed that I liked the man at one time and convinced my husband to vote for him. I wish I could take back every single nice and supportive word I ever said about him. He's so wrapped up in OTHER peoples affairs that he doesn't even take the time to worry about Americans.
Remember them Obama? The people whose Nation you're asking to lead? No, why would you. Your own wife wasn't proud to be one, (until you got a little recognition, how convenient) which leads me to think you're not either. Why?
What is it about Americans that bothered and offended Dear Mrs. Obama ,so much, that she wasn't proud to be one?
And what the heck is he doing parading around in the Middle East? Campaigning? What a waste of time and money, doesn't he know all Middle Eastern Muslims and extremists already adore him? Someone send him an fyi.
He should be campaigning in the United States of America, explaining his positions to the American voters, trying to prove to them that he’s got THEIR best interest at heart because he cares about Americans and is proud of them. Oh but wait, that would be flat out lying. So, what’s his next stop, Mexico? Not yet, turns out to be Germany.
"The more basic question is why Obama feels the need to conduct a campaign event among Germans. Meeting with foreign leaders makes sense for a man with no foreign policy experience whatsoever, but that doesn’t require massive rallies among people who aren’t voting in this election. In his rush to look impressive for no one’s purposes but his own, Obama has made himself look ignorant and arrogant all over again."
And to make things worse.....
"After receiving a hailstorm of criticism for considering Brandenburg Gate for a public speech, as well as official German dissuasion, Barack Obama moved the venue to the Siegessäule monument. Obama will speak about “historic” US-German relations, but once again, Obama’s own grasp of history has been proven deficient. Not only does the site contain a monument to Prussian victories over other American allies in Europe, its placement was decided by Adolf Hitler — in order to impress crowds in his idealized version of Berlin called Germania."
omg. What an idiot.
It’s unbelievable. He’s not even the “official” Democratic Nominee, let alone the President. What an arrogant pompous presumptuous moron.
Obama, who has been away from his Senator job for a while is going to have a problem with this crime epidemic in Chicago. Losing more people to murder there than US troop loss in Afghanistan and in the last 10 years more people lost than in Iraq.
Like the 1988 Dukakis Bush attack ad that showed Dukakis and his dirty Boston Harbor while claiming to be a environmental advocate, this Crime and murder in Chicago will come to roost at Obama. While he is after another job, his own city burns.
LIke the Lame politicians you vote in office in LA, Chicago Gov is at least thinking of his own Troop surge to fight Crime of Epidemic numbers.

A day doesn’t go by that I don’t hear the comment, oh if we could only go back to the good old days. That may because I’m getting older and my friends are mostly of my era but either way it’s a comment that needs some explanation. By using the term good old days people are just asking for a less hectic time. A time when neighbors had time to become friends. When kids could play outside till dark without worry. When families sat down to dinner together and discussed the days events. Girls had slumber parties and the boys had sleepovers. We went to church as a family and after church a ride in the family car was in order usually to a place where mom brought out the hidden picnic basket from the trunk while dad found a nice even place to lay the blanket.
You know what’s so funny about this is the fact that everything I have mentioned is still available today. Life is what we make of it and lately it seems we have made a mess of what we have. Few families share the dinner hour, seldom do families attend church regularly especially together. The girls are more interested in boys from the age of 10 or 11 on that they seldom care to be in the company of family. Boys usually don’t start having those thoughts until at least 12 and then watch out. A ride in the country is out of the question, “boring”. If the kids are out till dark it generally leads to a visit from an angry neighbor or the police.
You will notice nothing has been said about money. It’s not the cost of things that have changed it is the attitude. TV and the Internet has taken the place of mom and dad in many homes, what they learn from watching it is that it’s cool to be a bad dude, to carry a knife or even a gun. That their real friends are the punks that they hang out with every day. The boys learn that girls should be treated like some type toy to be played with and then thrown away. The girls learn only too fast that they can get what ever they want by using their bodies.
No, times haven’t changed, we have. We have allowed this corruption to permeate into our society and take over our lives. We send our kids to their room to get them out of our hair and they spend hours watching garbage on TV or chatting on the internet with God knows who. We wonder where they learned the disrespectful language they use and why they treat their parents with such demeaning anger. Kids crave discipline, they will respond to it if it is mete out with love and they understand the reason for it. My Grand Daughter surprised me one day as she told me she knows we love her because we care what happens to her and want her to be smart about what she does.
Once a child is on drugs it is a whole different matter. Drugs have to be dealt with tough love. I have seen the result of some of these so called professional treatment centers. Few if any do what a parent can do but it takes a discipline that few can muster. We have allowed sex to become part of a 12 year olds world in the manner in which they dress and what they watch on TV or the Internet. I’m afraid that the people of Sodom and Gomorrah would feel right at home in this century, kind of scary isn’t it? When you take time to remember what God did to them.
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that our government can track a single cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington? And, they tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 20 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.
The Constitution:
They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq . Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it has worked for over 200 years, and we're not using it anymore.
The Ten Commandments:
The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse is this: You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery", and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges and politicians. It creates a hostile work environment.
Barack Obama's upcoming swing through Europe and the Middle East is now guaranteed to be a major media event, certified by the presence of the three network anchors.
Katie Couric (I thought she was about to get to get the boot) Brian Williams and Charlie Gibson and will travel overseas next week, lured by the prospect of interviews with the presumed Democratic candidate. That means the NBC, ABC and CBS newscasts will originate from stops on the trip and pump the heck out Obama and his travels. So is this warranted coverage of a big story or just plain media super-circus? I figure it’s a big dollop of both.
At any rate “the big three” (if those once exalted positions at ABC, CBS and NBC can still be called that) will certainly get their “exclusive” interviews with the candidate, probably on successive nights in different countries. So you’ve got the idea: the Obama camp is in a win-win-win situation by dragging the anchor trio half way around the world merely by offering access.
Obama has been quite adept at working the media. He is on the cover of this week's Newsweek, again, after star turns on Us Weekly, "Access Hollywood" (with kids—which he claimed to late regret) and, not so happily, the New Yorker. More about that in a moment.
What a contrast between the media feeding frenzy surrounding Obama… and the real lack of coverage John McCain's campaign has been getting. The difference is striking. For instance, when McCain went to Britain, France and Israel and met with their leaders in March, no network anchors tagged along. It was left to the correspondent on NBC and ABC. CBS couldn’t even be bothered doing that. Again it was NBC and ABC that sent correspondents only to McCain’s Columbia trip two weeks ago. CBS? Absent.
EVERY BIGOT’S POSTER
Most Americans really don’t know much about The New Yorker – other than it exists and perhaps that it is has long employed distinguished cartoonists. The mag’s often high handed liberalism came through in one of those drawings week… the cover art, shown here. Wow did this ever stir up the blogosphere, talk radio and water cooler talk!
The cover crudely caricatures Barack and Michelle Obama as Osama bin Laden-honoring terrorists bumping fists in the Oval Office as an American Flag burns in the fireplace. It was tasteless and crude and even though The New Yorkers’ editors claimed their readers would “get it,” most everyone was offended. That included McCain. The Obamas had to be both angry and embarrassed.
The cover plays to the ill-gotten views of 12 percent of Americans who erroneously think Obama is a Muslim. And it’s sure to wind up as a poster on every bigot's wall. CRANKING UP THE CONTRAST
Barack Obama has found something that eluded him during the primary season — contrast. Contrast with John McCain. And Obama is doing a much better job of playing it up. He’s even basking in it.
In McCain, Obama faces an opponent who is the opposite of him in every way — an Iraq war backer who supports free-market economics, opposes abortion rights and is a Republican. Obama delights in pointing out the differences and, so far, is doing a pretty effective job of it.
This isn’t to say that McCain isn’t trying the same tack. But by continuing to link McCain with Bush, Obama is better able to aggressively and enthusiastically go after his foe. This certainly is a turn around from the months when he was squaring off with Hillary Clinton, a fellow Democrat with whom he actually differs little.
These days, Obama assails McCain's position on the issues every chance he gets. He levels his charges with a commonsense tone and lighthearted touch that couches the criticism while making his core argument: McCain and President Bush are the same. And that’s an argument should be making if he is doing to sell himself, especially to Independent and even some moderate Republican voters.
Obama also is taking full advantage of the openings McCain presents. Take his response to McCain ally Senator Phil Gramm’s read that the United States is "a nation of whiners" in a "mental recession," Obama jumped on the Gramm-gram to portray McCain as out of touch.
This audience ate up Obama's criticism of McCain — just like his crowds do every day. McCain and his top people should be learning from that.

When God created this fine earth of ours he did so with many lessons in mind. Much over the decades has been written on his behalf and it is our pure faith that allows us to take the word of the scriptures as his gospel. If you take the time to look out the window of your soul you will see the beauty God bestowed on this earth. The flowers, the trees, the beautiful oceans and the majestic mountains of the west.
Look harder and you will find the lessons of the earth that he left for us to study. By looking at the squirrel we learn that we must prepare for the winter of our lives. It’s a lesson in survival, about planning ahead and storing the necessities we will need to get by. He didn’t teach them that it was okay to take a portion of that which other squirrels had gathered. Each is expected to stand alone and be self sufficient.
By watching the birds and other animals we see that he meant for us to nurture our babies to the point of maturity teaching them to stand on their own and then allowing them their freedom to make a life of their own choosing. We see basically that God wants us strong and self sufficient, able to strike out and perpetuate our species.
The deer teaches us we must be cunning in order to survive the ravages of the world around us. The Lion represents the strength and self assuredness that is necessary for survival. He shows us that with strength we can be safe and secure from our enemies. He gave the wolf a sly wit and sharp teeth for his survival. He taught the birds to fly at a sign of danger.
One thing that is missing from this lesson is what he gave man, he gave man the ability to know right from wrong and the ability to reason and to love. No matter how much the folks at PETA will disagree with me I believe that God intended man to dominate the earth and make it his own. Those with the strength of the lion will grow into the leaders of men. Like the Ram in the wild there will always be someone just around the next bend to challenge for the leadership. As in nature our survival is the result of our strength and our ability to change with the seasons.
The greatest lesson comes from studying the ant. Here there is a strong correlation with man. The center of a hill is populated by workers who service and maintain the family health. There is a scout team that seeks the procurement of food and drink. There is an army that never leaves the hill unless it is attacked by an outside force. God never intended for these creatures to die in vain, he gave them the power to fight when needed and fully expected them to use this force when provoked. It is my belief that he bestowed the same intelligence in man. He himself destroyed and sent thousands to death in the towns of Sodom and Gomorrah to prevent the spreading of their debauchery to other cities and towns.
Man was also given a sense of justice and a dose of charity that animals do not have. When you take away the freedom of a wild animal it generally dies or becomes timid and depressed. When you take away the freedom of man he does the same. The difference is the animal has been taught naturally to fight for his freedom and will do so to the death if necessary. Man has to learn this behavior through experience and once he has a taste for freedom he can never accept the alternative. Don’t get me wrong I believe in a compassionate God, yet like my father it was a matter of deserving his compassion or maybe is some cases suffering his ire when I erred.
My mom, my brother and I immigrated to New Zealand when I was nine. I didn’t know English and I was shy, on top of trying to fit in I had to work harder than everyone else to catch up with homework. I was shy and afraid to talk to people, sometimes to avoid talking more, I would simply agree with others. Just as I was starting to get used to living in New Zealand, we were notified for immigration to the United States. Thus my family moved again, and I was to face a whole different environment in Los Angeles.
Ten years later I am now a 2nd year architecture student at the University of Southern California. Not only have I adapted to the new environment, I have become a cheerful person and constantly trying to make people around me happy too. In architecture studio we are sometimes split into groups to build models together. Under stressful situations, people started fighting over how to fix a problem on the model. I stayed calm and helped people communicate better, and suggested that we try to cooperate better. We were able to finish the project on time. My friends would ask me how I am able to stay calm when everyone is fighting over how to solve the problem. It is because of the ying and yang philosophy and wisdom I have learned from Tai Ji Men Qigong Academy. My parents took me there since I was little; at Tai Ji Men we learn to be physically health, Chinese traditions, and how to treat people with respect.
When I was in high school I had an opportunity to enter in a competition held by the Orange County Department of Education. The objective was to encourage young people to stay away from drugs and violence. The title was “Follow me- Drug and Violence free” I won first place out of 45 different high schools. All of the winning posters were sent to the President of the United States, so that more people could get inspired by the posters.
When I was designing my poster I wanted to be very influential, to be able to encourage young people to stay away from drug and violence. I decided to draw the backs of two elephants, an adult and a baby. I wanted to create an image that people would be attracted to and want to find out what drawing is about. Elephants travel in a line, and seem cooperative. All the elephants would have to trust the leader because the elephants in the back would not be able to see where they are going. This image was inspired by my relationship with my Master at Tai Ji Men Qigong Academy. I have learned from him to teach myself, he has led me onto the right path in life, and also to use wisdom to overpower any negative temptations. I am thankful that I am able to learn early in my life, under my Master’s positive influences.
As an immigrant, I have to worry about fitting into the new crowd, and constantly think about what to do to be accepted by others. A friend once asked me if I had tried marijuana before, at first I was worried that if I said no, he would make fun of me; but then I remembered that my Master has always encouraged me to have the courage to do what’s right. Thus I told my friend, “No I haven’t, and I won’t” He asked me why, and I replied “It’s just not how I want to live my life.” I realized that the more relaxed and confident I am when I reply, the more people will respect me.
I am now no longer the shy little girl I once was. At Tai Ji Men, I have had the opportunity to follow the footsteps of Dr. Hong Tao Tze to spread the idea of love and peace all over the world. Recently the Federation of World Peace and love has been promoting the “Endorsement of Declarations for Human Rights of World Citizens and Peace.” in hopes that the world will be filled with love, peace and human rights. We also wish that everyone can join in this movement, just spend a minute to go on the website, www.taijimen.org and or www.fowpal.org and click the endorse button. Write down you name, title, nationality and leave a message, and send a positive thought for yourself, your family, the world and the earth, and do a good deed.

Thus everyone in this world is very important. Just spend one minute, it will benefit ourselves and others, everyone will be happy. Please join me to experience the joy from positive actions.
So you have had enough with illegal ALIENS from Mexico and central America. With our open border Presidential candidates, it will get far worse if either clown is elected to office. 30 million south of the border specialties are nothing to the immigration you will soon see if this federal government doesn't fix it now and fast.
There is a country called China and believe it or not, it will be nothing for them to flood our borders with 100 million people. Think I am kidding, they have 1.3 billion so that is less than 10 percent of their populace and what better place then America and its vast lands. But that will be just the start as our frauds like Barak and John sell us out on Illegal ALIEN control. Next will come the poorest of poor from India, perhaps 50,00 million or more coming through the open Mexican and Canadian borders. People are already braving rafts and shanty boats across the vast Pacific; and Illegals from other parts of Europe and the Middle East have already been documented through the open borders, that George Bush has so vigilantly maintained, against the well being of the American people, and it won't stop there.
If this sold-out, thoroughly corrupted federal government doesn't fix its borders, language and culture it will have none, and just as they sold out what was America, so the residents of that time will sell them out.

And now our next babbling idiot who is known for being a Maverick ( Or a Mercury Comet when he's feeling frisky) the Presidential Candidate from Arizona who occasionally needs to be reminded who the bad guys are-Let's just skip the applause-Senator John McCain
And here is McSames two cents regarding nuclear power and oil:
SEN. JOHN McCAIN: My dear friends, nuclear power must be part of
any equation that leads to addressing climate change and also leads to
addressing reduction of our dependence on foreign oil. You know, we
always love to imitate the French. The French, 80 percent of their
electricity in France is generated by nuclear power. We either got to
reprocess it or store it.
We always love to imitate the French?????? I'm sorry-what the hell does he mean by that? In 2003, we were told to hate the French. And how are we supposed to imitate a people in a country that we always have to bail out of a war? WWI, WWII, and the mess they started in Vietnam! Do any of you imitate the French? Well, if one shops at Target-I guess that would apply.
Is he referring to the French again? Can someone ask Leiberman to make sure John McBush is talking about the Nuclear waste please.

Every American in this country has hopes and desires, from the rancher in Wyoming to the teller at a bank in Chicago. From the surfer in Malibu, to the stockbroker in New York City. Of course they are all different and seldom do all wishes come true for any of us who venture through lives pathway. The point is that we each in our own way work towards our goals whether our interests are a lifestyle or the accumulation of wealth and property. We are so extremely fortunate to live in a free society that allows us to pursue these dreams. When it comes to politics and selecting a leader or leaders we will always have differences of opinion just as our goals and ambitions are different. For you who are still young and finding your way in this maze of confusion called electioneering I offer this advice;
Your vote is precious and should be considered an honor. When you vote you are exercising a right that men and women for generations have fought and died for. It is so much more than just a cliche these words I’m leaving with you, they are truth in the first degree. Imagine the young lad of eighteen who finds himself charging up Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima. A year ago he was a senior in school with his only dream that of marrying his high school sweetheart. His love for his country now out weighs the fear that is coursing through his body as a determined enemy is bent on killing him. He is no longer just a boy from Kansas, he has given that part of his life as a gift to you who have not even been born yet. He knows that he may die or be mutilated by war but to him it is more important that his family back home will live on in freedom. He doesn’t even know you but if he did he would tell you to be strong and care for this gift of freedom that has been bestowed upon you.
Don’t ever let your vote be bought with words as words never won the battle for our freedoms. Don’t ever let your vote be bought with promises of good times and easy living because good times and easy living have never faced the tempest that may be in your future. As you mature you will find that the world is really a small and fragile place. A place where people of all types and mentalities must live in some type of harmony to co-exist. You will find that no matter how kind and giving you are there are some who wish to do you harm. There are some in our country who think that if we are peaceful and kind to all we will be treated in a like manner. Ask the people of Poland, France or more recently Kuwait what it is like to one day wake up to tanks and bombs blowing apart everything you ever cared for. They didn’t mistreat their neighbors, they just happened to be in the way when trouble in the form of a madman came calling. Pacifism is like hiding your head in the sand while the bully kicks you square in the butt over and over. You won’t find an argument from me about being kind and peaceful, but when reality is thrust upon you like happened with 9-11, it is time to put away the pacifier and find a gun. With some people turning the other cheek is just giving them another easy target.
Our first contestant is a man who is determined to stay the course-even thought there may not be a complete plan , we stay the course anyway -Unless of course it's a Golf Course, of course . Ladies and Gentleman, Boys and Girls, and to all America-Introducing Our Very Own President George W. Bush ( Applause!!!) hello? I said APPLAUSE!!! Thank you...
On Tuesday July 15, 2008 President Bush addressed nuclear power at a news conference Tuesday and
hailed it as a way to reduce American dependence on oil and protect the
environment.
PRESIDENT GEORGE W. BUSH: This is just a transition period. I
mean, all of us want to get away from reliance upon hydrocarbons, but
it’s not going to happen overnight. You know, one of these days, people
are going to be using battery technologies in their cars. You’ve heard
me say this a lot, and I’m confident it’s going to happen. And, you
know, the throwaway line, of course, is that your car won’t have to
look like a golf cart. But the question then becomes, where are we
going to get electricity? And that’s why I’m a big believer in nuclear
power, to be able to make us less dependent on oil and better stewards
of the environment. But there is a transition period during the
hydrocarbon era, and it hasn’t ended yet, as our people now know.
Gasoline prices are high.
I have a couple comments, statements, questions, and a couple head scratching "HUH?'s"
1) Correct me if I am wrong but, haven't we been using these "Battery Technologies" already? Every car has a battery, electric cars have been in use for many years-we just have not chosen to take advantage of them. Oh! there are the hybrid cars that until recently, most Americans snubbed their noses at until Gas hit 4.50 a gallon. The Buses I take are also hybrid-they came out in 2002. 2) I knew it -he hasn't stopped playing golf. 3) Please correct me IF I am wrong but, according to my SCE electric bill statement, the power they generate comes from Natural Gas, Nuclear, Hydro, Solar, and Wind. Other parts of the Country also use Coal. So, how will more nuclear power plants make us less dependent on oil? 4)"As our people now know"? They just figured this out all by themselves? Kudos! 5) I think someone brought to his attention that gas is approaching $4.00 a gallon. Mr President, when was the last time YOU filled up YOUR tank with YOUR money? was this statement for us to show that you empathize or was it a statement to the stockholders at Exxon/Mobil?
Stay tuned for part two when I review Senator John McCains opinions on Nuclear Power and his French Connection
Senator Barrack Obama yesterday made mention of a "tough, smart and principled national security strategy, one that recognizes that we have interests beyond Baghdad, in Kandahar and Karachi, in Tokyo and London, in Beijing and Berlin."
I don't get it, if Obama is so dead-set against the war in Iraq because we have no business there... why would he think we would have any business in these other regions? Maybe Obama is a warmonger after all, I don't know, but based on that comment it doesn't sound too good for London, Tokyo, Beijing, Berlin, Kandahar and Karachi. You never know he might just impose marshal law and disband congress. I know that's a little far fetched right, I think that's what they said about the charismatic Adolph Hitler, didn't Hitler campaign on change and reform, promises of greatness for the country, only to deliver death, destruction and attempted annihilation.
I'm not saying that Obama is a repeat of Hitler, but we would all be fools if we believe that promises made in a campaign push would come to any fruition. Let's face it, politicians promise the world to their constituents in order to be elected to office. Somehow it doesn't make sense to promise to bring home the troops only to redeploy them to Afghanistan, Tokyo, Berlin or anywhere else for that matter. The promise is to bring them home so they won't die in a unwanted needless war that we supposedly have no business being in. Let me ask this then... if we haven't caught up with Bin Laden in the years since 9/11 then that should mean that we have no business in Afghanistan then right? I mean, the CIA is more than capable of covertly going into Pakistan or any other country that he may be hiding in and assassinating him, so then it doesn't make sense based on Obama's philosophy of needless unwanted wars to keep any of our troops in the region.
Somebody set me straight if I am wrong on this, And please don't call me unpatriotic... the post is about Obama contradicting his policy on bringing home the troops, not if I agree with him, because I don't.
SENATE COMMITTEE ADDS AMNESTY FOR ILLEGAL AG WORKERS TO IRAQ SPENDING BILL
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE— May 20, 2008 CONTACT: John Unger, 610-624-1199
PHOENIX, AZ — On behalf of citizens nationally the
Minuteman Civil Defense Corps (MCDC) calls attention to a backdoor
attempt by the U.S. Senate to use a supplemental appropriations bill –
intended to provide funding for this nation’s bravest fighting the war
effort in Iraq – to essentially sneak illegal aliens and their families
over our country’s borders while the American people aren’t looking.
The Senate Appropriations committee is doing just that this week; they
are smuggling a vote by the full Senate on Wednesday with controversial
Amnesty provisions for over a million illegal aliens as an addendum to
the Iraq War Supplemental Spending bill.
The addition of two amendments to the Iraq spending bill means that
in order to provide emergency funding for our courageous troops in
Iraq, Senators will be forced to approve this open borders stealth
strategy, and provide illegal aliens amnesty and expand guest worker
programs. Among other gratuitous liberties, this Ag - Jobs amendment
sponsored by Senators Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) and Larry Craig (R-ID)
would grant a five year Amnesty to over 1.3 million undocumented
illegal aliens working in the agricultural industry.
Carmen Mercer, Vice President and Director of Governmental
Relations of MCDC comments, “An open door Amnesty policy by the Senate
is a clear welcome mat forever – there is no instruction on what
happens after five years with these millions of illegals now in our
country living off our citizens.”
There is no reason for an Amnesty bill to provide growers with
workers. Already in place is the H-2A foreign worker program that
provides growers with an unlimited number of temporary workers – so
long as the growers agree to pay a decent wage and ensure that laborers
go back home at the end of the season. The H-2A visa program has been
implemented successfully by the North Carolina Growers Association,
which opposes all efforts at Amnesty for illegal alien ag-workers.
For the past four years claims have been made that we will fail to
harvest crops and feed the world without Amnesty for illegal aliens,
but with Amnesty legislation staved off, somehow the harvests have
still happened. “We don’t need Amnesty for law breakers; we need
secure borders for law abiding citizens,” states Mercer.
“Attaching Amnesty to the Iraq War Supplemental spending bill,
likely paving the way for legal status being awarded to millions of
aliens who entered our country illegally, is an egregious act of
disrespect for our men and women in uniform and to the citizens of this
country,” Mercer continues.
“With economic conditions as they are, unemployment rates going up,
and industries across the country eliminating both skilled and
unskilled positions, shouldn’t our government be championing
law-abiding citizens rather than sneaking to vote Amnesty and special
citizenship that protects law-breaking illegal aliens?” Mercer
concludes, “The politicians will talk; the liberal media and the ‘Hate
America’ crowd will offer amnesty to lawbreakers; the Minutemen will
act in defense of America to halt Amnesty and secure America’s borders
now.”
The Minuteman Civil Defense Corps (MCDC) is a
peaceful, law-abiding and citizen-led initiative organized to stand
watch at our borders and in our neighborhoods, report illegal
activities to the proper authorities, and aid in the construction of
border fencing on private lands using private donations. Additionally,
MCDC seeks to urge local and federal officials to enforce our
immigration laws in order to keep our families and country safe. MCDC
conducts border watch operations that assist the activities of the U.S.
Border Patrol, reports employers of illegal aliens, and advocates to
keeps tax dollars from being used for illegal alien benefits.
Why is it that Jesse Jackson shot himself in the foot and jeopardized the potential election of the first black man as president? One can only guess that there are members of the black community that have a deep-seated fear of success. They subconsciously self-defeat themselves before they give themselves a try at being successful. Those that do succeed in sports, entertainment, science, etc., do so by creating a positive image of themselves as being already successful and a winner. Jesse Jackson is of the mindset that black people are already doomed to failure, so why even try. He would say that the playing field needs to be leveled in order for black people to compet
