Class War

Interesting e-mail that I received today. It reflects the feelings of a lot of people.  Class war at its best.  I have never heard this said as simply or as well.

The folks who are getting the free stuff, don't really like the folks who are paying for the free stuff, because the folks who are paying for the free stuff can no longer afford to pay for both the free stuff and their own stuff..

And, the folks who are paying for the free stuff want the free stuff to stop. And the folks who are getting the free stuff want even more free stuff on top of the free stuff they are already getting!

Now... the people who are forcing the people who pay for the free stuff have told the people who are RECEIVING the free stuff that the people who are PAYING for the free stuff are being mean, prejudiced, and racist.
So...the people who are GETTING the free stuff have been convinced they need to hate the people who are paying for the free stuff by the people who are forcing some people to pay for their free stuff and giving them the free stuff in the first place.
We have let the free stuff giving go on for so long that there are now more people getting free stuff than paying for the free stuff.

Now understand this. All great democracies have committed financial suicide somewhere between 200 and 250 years after being founded. The reason?

The voters figured out they could vote themselves money from the treasury by electing people who promised to give them money from the treasury in exchange for electing them.

The United States officially became a Republic in 1776, 231 years ago. The number of people now getting free stuff outnumbers the people paying for the free stuff.

We have one chance to change that in 2012. Failure to change that spells the end of the United States as we know it.

ELECTION 2012 IS COMING1  A Nation of Sheep Breeds a Government of Wolves!   I'M 100% for PASSING THIS ON !!! Let’s Take a Stand!!!
  1. Obama: Gone!
  2. Borders: Closed!
  3. Language: English only
  4. Culture: Constitution, and the Bill of Rights!
  5. Drug Free: Mandatory Drug Screening before Welfare!
  6. NO freebies to: Non-Citizens!
We, the people, are coming.  It is estimated that only 86% will send this on. Should be a 100%.  What will you do?

George Washington's 1789 Thanksgiving Proclamation

Now that all your "turkey" has settled and you are back into your routines, I ran across this posting regarding George Washington and his 1789 Thanksgiving proclamation.  A far cry from what we are hearing in the news today but this is what the First President of the United States believed.  Not only was this HIS belief but he was  repeatedly elected so you know that the "people" believed this same way.  The "people" had a heart for God and founded this nation to be a nation after the heart of God.  If the "people" had a different heart than this, they would have elected someone who represented their hearts.

That is what is going on today, many people have hearts that are far from God so they are electing people with godless agendas and selfish convictions.  God forgive us!


George Washington's Thanksgiving Proclamation, 1789

 "Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor - and Whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me 'to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.'

"Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author  of all the good that was, that is, or that will be - That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks - for his kind care and protection of the People of this country previous to their becoming a Nation - for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his providence, which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war - for the great degree of tranquillity, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed - for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted, for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.

"And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions - to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually - to render our national government a blessing to all the People, by constantly being a government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed - to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord - To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and Us - and generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best."

Chris Matthews on Obama

This is really an interesting interview to me.  If you ever watch Television News Talk shows then you have most likely heard of Chris Matthews.  He is currently the host of Hardball on MSNBC and has worked for many news organizations. A speechwriter during the Carter administration, Matthews later worked for Speaker of the House of Representatives Tip O'Neil, which involved him in many key political battles with the Reagan administration.  He has had an unsuccessful campaign run for the Pennsylvania's 4th congressional district seat in the US House of Representatives in 1974 so he has had a LONG career of politics in America.

So why do we care what Matthews has to say?  Well, normally I would agree with you if you posed that question but what is interesting is this recent interview with him in which he poses MANY tough questions regarding the Obama administration.  Basically Matthews says Obama is not worth electing again as he hasn't done anything for the country and he has no clear-cut plan describing what he will do for the country.  Matthews further rants that people are waiting for direction from Obama and wanting him to give us something to do; in other words, lead!

Matthews speaking of Obama says, "Ask us to do something. There is no Peace Corps. There is no Special Forces. There is no 50 mile hikes. There’s no moon program. There’s nothing to root for."

Matthews goes on in the interview to slam Obama and his credibility to lead.  He talks of how he doesn't communicate with congress and he is off doing what?  He challenges with things like, "What are we trying to do in this administration? Why does he want a second term? Would he tell us? What's he going to do in the second term? More of this? Is this it? Is this as good as it gets? Where are we going? Are we going to do something the second term? He has yet to tell us. He has not said one thing about what he would do in the second term. He never tells us what he is going to do with reforming our healthcare systems, Medicare, Medicaid, how is going to reform Social Security. Is he going to deal with long-term debt? How? Is he going to reform the tax system? How? Just tell us. Why are we in this fight with him? Just tell us, Commander, give us our orders and tell us where we’re going, give us the mission. And he hasn't done it."

This is a clear indication that even the "left" has left Obama.  Matthews poses great questions and his discussion sounds more like something I would say than a liberal like he is.  Wake up America!  Obama is just smoke and mirrors and I want to know who is the puppeteer behind him! Very interesting indeed.
