"We The People" Stimulus Package Video

A few of you have sent me the 10-minute video, "We The People" Stimulus Package.  I thought it was
important enough that I embedded it on our homepage.  For those of you who *haven't* seen it (it's had
about 6 million views), please go to our homepage (scroll down a little) ... and send the link out to
your friends.  This is an incredible, patriotic video ... very well done.  I disagree with a couple of
Sasso's points, but overall, it's excellent:

Israel to Hit Iran

From: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/132430

(I have yet to be convinced that the "Jews" [they *haven't been* the children of Israel since 70 A.D. if
you understand Scripture and history] are the cause of all our problems. If you're anti-Jew, UNSUBSCRIBE

Israel to Hit Iran 'as Part of Deal including Yesha Evictions'
by Gil Ronen Bushehr-for-Yitzhar Materializes

As two Israeli missile-class warships joined a navy submarine in the Red Sea, an Israeli defense source
made it clear that the moves are intended as a threatening message to Iran.
“This is preparation that should be taken seriously,” the unnamed source told the London Times. “Israel
is investing time in preparing itself for the complexity of an attack on Iran.”

“These maneuvers are a message to Iran that Israel will follow up on its threats,” he emphasized.
The exercises “come at a time when Western diplomats are offering support for an Israeli strike on Iran
in return for Israeli concessions on the formation of a Palestinian state,” the Times said. It quoted an
anonymous British official as saying that if the deal completed, it would make an Israeli strike on
Iran realistic “within the year.”

Diplomats said that Israel had offered concessions “on settlement policy, Palestinian land claims and
issues with neighboring Arab states, to facilitate a possible strike on Iran. “ A senior European
diplomat, also unnamed, said that “Israel has chosen to place the Iranian threat over its settlements.”

Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit said in a news conference Wednesday that the ships passed
through the canal with Egypt’s permission, and that “ships may pass through the canal as long as they do
not threaten the country which controls the canal.” He noted that the international agreements
regulating which ships may pass through the Suez Canal date back to 1888.

The two Saar-class ships, INS Eilat and INS Chanit, sailed into the Red Sea Wednesday in what was the
report described as “a clear signal that Israel was able to put its strike force within range of Iran at
short notice.”

Ten days earlier, a Dolphin-class submarine with nuclear-missile strike capabilities passed through the
Suez Canal into the Red Sea as well. Later reports said it, too, was accompanied by two Israeli missile
boats – meaning that four missile boats have now crossed the canal. Israel has six Dolphin-class
submarines, three of which are believed to carry nuclear missiles, the Times said.
Later this month, the Israel Air Force will hold long-range exercises in the U.S. and will test a
missile defense shield at a U.S. missile range in the Pacific Ocean.

While local Israeli media have played up alleged tensions between Egypt and Israel over past statements
by Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, the Times report says that Israel “has strengthened ties with
Arab nations who also fear a nuclear-armed Iran” and quotes an Israeli diplomat who said that relations
with Egypt, in particular, have grown increasingly strong this year over the “shared mutual distrust of
Iran.”

The report estimates that Israel’s missile-equipped submarines and its fleet of advanced aircraft could
simultaneously strike at more than a dozen nuclear-related targets in Iran.

The Arrow interceptor system that will be tested in the Pacific is designed to defend Israel from
ballistic missile attacks by Iran and Syria. According to Lt.-Gen. Patrick O’Reilly, Director of the
Pentagon’s Missile Defense Agency, this month’s test will be against a target with a range of more than
1,000km. This range is too long for testing in the eastern Mediterranean, where Israel held its previous
tests of the Arrow.

The Israeli Air Force, meanwhile, will send F16C fighter jets to participate in exercises at Nellis Air
Force base in Nevada later this month, and Israeli C130 Hercules transport aircraft will participate in
the Rodeo 2009 competition at the McChord Air Force base in Washington.

“It is not by chance that Israel is drilling long-range maneuvers in a public way. This is not a secret
operation. This is something that has been published and which will showcase Israel’s abilities,” an
Israeli defense official said.



**** URGENT ****

Please call your U.S. Senators ASAP!

As you may recall, earlier this year Senator John Thune (SD) introduced S.845, the "Respecting States
Rights and Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2009".  If enacted, S.845 would allow individuals who have
a concealed carry permit the ability to carry a firearm in all 50 states and the District of Columbia.

As things stand now, some states refuse to honor concealed weapons permits from other states. This bill
will go a long ways towards ensuring the safety of you and your fellow truckers when you are on the
road.

Senator Thune plans to modify the text of S.845 and offer it as an amendment to the Defense
Authorization bill that is currently being debated on the Senate floor.   He needs your help to get
enough votes to pass his amendment and get it included in the Defense bill.

Senator Thune may offer his amendment as soon as today. Please call your Senators IMMEDIATELY and urge
them to support this amendment.  Your message to them and their staff can be as simple as, "I am from
(hometown, home state) and I ask that the Senator votes in support of Senator Thune's conceal carry
amendment to the Defense bill."  

Contact information:

Senator Max Baucus
Phone: 202-224-2651

Senator Jon Tester

You are also welcome to call OOIDA at (800) 444-5791. Association staff will be happy to help put you in
touch with your elected officials in Washington.

Swine Flu Bioterrorism

I don't know how accurate this is, but it scared at least one reader. (I gave up on organics-making-me-
live-forever back in the early '70s, though that's *not* what this article is about. bh)

General James E Cartwright USMC, VCJCS
General George W. Casey, Jr. USA
Admiral Gary Roughead, USN
General Norton A. Schwartz, USAF
General James T. Conway, USMC

Gentlemen:

We are now in a situation where those who desire to extricate themselves from the War On Terror, or any
other military obligation, may do so by challenging their orders. All one needs to do is question the
legitimacy of the alleged president, Soetoro, and they are immediately released. What will you do if all
the military want to know the truth? What will you do then? Should not they expect their orders to be
legal? Every person in the military should resist, barring absolute proof. If only our military had
hundreds of thousands of others with Major Stefan Frederick Cook’s bravery.

Show us, gentlemen, that you, too, have that bravery. Show the American People that you are not just
armchair generals, fat and incompetent, happy to collect your paychecks, waiting to retire. Show us that
you indeed have some testicular fortitude and the ‘guts’ for which our military is known. Show us you
give a damn.

You cannot allow this wound to fester. It is Soetoro, at the top, who must prove himself. Not the other
way around. With every damn ‘i’ dotted, and ‘t’ crossed; all the way back to August 4, 1961, from Kenya,
to Hawaii, to Indonesia, the passports, the Selective Service application, through school. All of it.
ALL OF IT.
....

To keep this drip from becoming a torrent, you must demand that Soetoro prove his legitimacy, once and
for all. First, he should be a citizen of the United States, incredibly, even that is questionable. But,
to be president, he must have two citizen parents. He can be given the benefit of the doubt on the other
two requirements. World leaders and intelligence agencies know he is a fraud. Foreign populations have
been informed by their media, and know him to be a fraud. Our own CIA and FBI know he is a fraud.
Millions of Americans know he is a fraud. Major Cook knows he is a fraud. I’m of the opinion you
gentlemen also know he is a fraud.

Honduras. Could this tiny, poor, third world DEMOCRACY be a model for the United States of America? I
can’t believe I just wrote that down. Yet that country was not going to allow a president to usurp power
he did not constitutionally possess, as we have. The Honduran Army was forced to step in and correct the
situation, and immediately turn over the reins of power to legitimate officeholders. Their military were
true leaders. A coup?  No. A correction.

You could achieve the same thing by demanding honesty, truth, and transparency of Soetoro. Demand his
bona fides. Prove to the American People that you are leaders. Prove to the American People that you are
patriots worthy of the medals and ribbons on your chests. Or return them as undeserved.

We learn, today, that DOD’s Defense Security Services Agency has demanded that Simtech CEO, Larry Grice,
terminate Major Stefan Frederick Cook, and that his security clearances have been revoked. Despicable
mistreatment of a true hero. What about the very idea that the military must follow legal orders? How
the hell do they know the orders are legal if they don’t ask? Doesn’t this violate the whistle blower
protections afforded anybody who works for the government? Yes, soldiers who work for the military work
for the government.

This hero, Major Cook, swore to uphold the Constitution, not a phony president. For doing his job, for
protecting the Constitution, he is felled, as if by an enemy bullet, but it turns out to be friendly
fire. The despicable coward who ordered this treatment of him should be hanged. By destroying Cook, an
illegal order is executed; exactly what Cook was trying to avoid.

Major Cook is the hero, the patriot, you gentlemen will never be.

Yours very truly,

Rob Lamb

Enough Is Enough

MORE on "Healthcare" (I mean, 'Coming Holocaust' bh)



When Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and John Edwards all discussed their versions of univeral healthcare
(which were all basically the same program), I wrote this article.  The date?  Aug. 16, 2007.  The plan
all three of them were putting together would simply copy Canada.  Each of them believes the Canadian
healthcare system is the best in the world.  The Canadians, of course, didn't.  When they needed
healthcare they came to the United States ... even though it meant paying 100% of the cost out of their
own pockets ... without insurance.  Even as Canadians died for lack of care, their government tried to
prevent them from leaving the country for care.  In fact, in Canada, they could not "jump to the head of
the line" by paying cash to healthcare providers.  Because, if their government refuses them treatment,
they are not allowed, by law, to have it.
 
Whether you're a liberal, a conservative, a libertarian, a Christian or an agnostic, if you're  a
"working class American," (whether low, middle or upper middle class), you are going to find yourself
trapped in a system that plans to euthanize its aged because the government cannot afford the upkeep of
its elderly citizens.
 
If you want to live past your first serious heart attack or stroke, or pneumonia, then you need to fire
every liberal in both the US House and Senate in 2010.  And, whatever you do, don't call it "politics." 
Call it self-preservation.  Our government has decided to wage war on working class America.  It's time
we took the battle to Pennsylvania Avenue.

Sheese, I've gotta find some light-hearted humor, somewhere, to send out....

Oh, wait, here's one!

MEMO TO ALL EMPLOYEES...

    As the CEO of this organization, I have resigned myself to the fact
    that Barrack Obama is our President and that our taxes and
    government fees will increase in a BIG way. To compensate for these
    increases, our prices would have to increase by about 10%.

    But since we cannot increase our prices now, due to the dismal
    state of the economy, we will have to lay off sixty of our employees
    instead. This has really been bothering me, since I believe we are
    family here and I didn't know how to choose who would have to go.

    So, this is what I did. I walked through our parking lots and found
    sixty 'Obama' bumper stickers on our employees' cars and have
    decided these folks will be the ones to let go. I can't think of a
    more fair way to approach this problem. They voted for change, I gave
    it to them.

    I will see the rest of you at the annual company picnic.

Have a good day, Comrade (if there's such a thing as a good day left....)
