LINDA 2010! NOT!

April 19, 2010 By: Ray Category: Front Page, New England News, US POLITICS

Isn’t it just simply confusing that most of the candidates running for office in Connecticut do not put which party they are affiliated with?

Take for instance, Linda McMahon (r) running for the US Senate. Visit her site, www.linda2010.com and see if you can find what party she belongs to. After some digging you will eventually find it.

She is a REPUBLICAN that wants us to return back to the days of the Bush era. She said she is able to put jobs in Connecticut as the Chairman of the WWE (formerly WWF). What she doesn’t say is her husband was the one that built the company and that it was glorified in productions when she was elevated to Chairman. But do not be fooled folks, she was merely the housemaid for a fanatic show.

Lets face it, why would anyone want to go see a staged competition between 2 monstrosities in a roped off ring with fake punches. At least with the octogan (UCF) the blood is real and the punches are real, at least with boxing it is real. But WWE is not real. Neither is her leadership real and I for one do not welcome her to be my Senator.

She has already proven that she is sneaky by not answering a question posted to her website as to which party does she represent. You think she will be forthright in representing us in our US Senate?

I don’t think so.

YES, We Noticed…

April 13, 2010 By: Ray Category: Front Page, US POLITICS

This was written by Sherry Hackett, wife of the late Buddy Hackett, is a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat.
I would hope that there are many other Democrats who share her position …

President Obama:
Today I read of your administrations’ plan to re-define September 11 as a National Service Day.

Sir, it’s time we had a talk.

During your campaign, Americans watched as you  made mockery of our
tradition of standing and crossing your heart when the Pledge of Allegiance
was spoken. You, out of four people on the stage, were the only one not
honoring our tradition.

YES, “We noticed.”

During one of your many speeches, Americans heard you say that  you intended to visit all 57 states. We all know that Islam, not America has 57 states.

YES, “We noticed.”

When President Bush leaned over at Ground Zero and gently  placed a flower on the memorial, while you nonchalantly  tossed your flower onto the pile without leaning  over.

YES, “We noticed.”

Every time you apologized to other countries for America ’s position on an issue we have wondered why you don’t share our  pride in this great country..
When you have heard foreign leaders  berate our country and our beliefs, you have not defended us. In  fact, you insulted the British Crown beyond belief.

YES, “We noticed.”

When your pastor of 20 years, “God-damned America ” and said that 9/11 was ” America ’s chickens coming home to roost”  and you denied having heard recriminations of that nature, we  wondered how that could be. You later  disassociated yourself  from that church and Pastor Wright because it was politically expedient to do so.

YES, “We noticed.”

When you announced that you would transform America , we wondered why.
With all her faults, America is the  greatest country on earth.

Sir, KEEP THIS IN MIND, “if not for  America and the people who built her, you wouldn’t be sitting in the White House now.” Prior to yourelection to the highest office in this Country, you were a senator from Illinois and  from what we can glean from the records available, not a very remarkable one.

YES, “We noticed.”

All through your campaign and even now, you have surrounded yourself with individuals who are basically unqualified for  the positions for which you appointed them. Worse than that, the  majority of them are people who, like you, bear no special allegiance, respect, or affection for this country and her traditions.

YES, “We noticed.”

You are 14 months into your term and every morning millions of Americans wake up to a new horror heaped on us by you. You seek  to saddle working Americans with a health care/insurance  reform package that, along with cap and trade, will bankrupt this nation.

YES, “We noticed.”

We seek, by protesting, to let our representatives know that we are not in favor of these crippling expenditures and we are  labeled “un-American”,”racist”, “mob”. We wonder how we are supposed  to let you know how frustrated we are. You have attempted to make our protests seem isolated and insignificant. Until your appointment, Americans had the right to speak out.

YES, “We noticed.”

On September 11, 2001 there were no Republicans or Democrats, only Americans. And we all grieved together and  helped each other in whatever way we could. The attack on 9/11 was carried out because we are Americans.

And YES, “We noticed.”

There were many of us who prayed that as a black president you could help unite this nation. In six months you have done  more to destroy this nation than the attack on 9/11. You have failed us.

YES, “We noticed.”

September 11 is a day of remembrance for all  Americans. You propose to make 9/11 a “National Service Day”.  While we know that you don’t share our reverence for 9/11, we  pray that history will report your proposal as what it is, a disgrace.

YES, “We noticed.”

You have made a mockery of  our Constitution and the office that you hold. You have embarrassed and slighted us in foreign visits and policy.

YES, “We noticed.”

We have noticed all these things. We will deal with you. When Americans come together again, it will be to remove you from office.

Take notice.

Cheap Tomatoes

March 23, 2010 By: Ray Category: US POLITICS

THIS HAS GOT TO BE PASSED ALONG TO AS MANY
AS POSSIBLE OR WE WILL ALL GO DOWN THE DRAIN
BECAUSE A FEW DON’T CARE.

This English teacher has phrased it the best I’ve seen yet.
Tomatoes and Cheap Labor
This should make everyone think, be you Democrat, Republican or Independent

From a California school teacher – - -
“As you listen to the news about the student protests over illegal immigration, there are some things that you should be aware of:

I am in charge of the English-as-a-second-language department at a large southern California high school which is designated a Title 1 school, meaning that its students average lower socioeconomic and income levels

Most of the schools you are hearing about, South Gate High, Bell Gardens , Huntington Park , etc., where these students are protesting, are also Title 1 schools.

Title 1 schools are on the free breakfast and free lunch program. When I say free breakfast, I’m not talking a glass of milk and roll — but a full breakfast and cereal bar with fruits and juices that would make a Marriott proud. The waste of this food is monumental, with trays and trays of it being dumped in the trash uneaten.

I estimate that well over 50% of these students are obese or at least moderately overweight. About 75% or more DO have cell phones. The school also provides day care centers for the unwed teenage pregnant girls (some as young as 13) so they can attend class without the inconvenience of having to arrange for babysitters or having family watch their kids.

I was ordered to spend $700,000 on my department or risk losing
funding for the upcoming year even though there was little need for anything; my budget was already substantial. I ended up buying new computers for the computer learning center, half of which, one month later, have been carved with graffiti by the appreciative students who obviously feel humbled and grateful to have a free education in America ..

I have had to intervene several times for young and substitute teachers whose classes consist of many illegal immigrant students, here in the country less than 3 months, who raised so much hell with the female teachers, calling them “Putas”(whores) and throwing things, that the teachers were in tears.

Free medical, free education, free food, free day care etc., etc, etc. Is it any wonder they feel entitled to not only be in this country but to demand rights, privileges and entitlements?

To those who want to point out how much these illegal immigrants contribute to our society because they LIKE their gardener and housekeeper and they like to pay less for tomatoes: spend some time in the real world of illegal immigration and see the TRUE costs.

Higher insurance, medical facilities closing, higher medical costs, more crime, lower standards of education in our schools, overcrowding, new diseases. For me, I’ll pay more for tomatoes.

Americans, We need to wake up.

It does, however, have everything to do with culture: It involves an American third-world culture that does not value education, that accepts children getting pregnant and dropping out of school by 15 and that refuses to assimilate, and an American culture that has become so weak and worried about”political correctness” that we don’t have the will to do anything about it.

If this makes your blood boil, as it did mine, forward this to everyone you know.

CHEAP LABOR? Isn’t that what the whole immigration issue is about?

  • Business doesn’t want to pay a decent wage.
  • Consumers don’t want expensive produce.
  • Government will tell you Americans don’t want the jobs.
  • But the bottom line is cheap labor. The phrase “cheap labor” is a myth, a farce, and a lie. There is no such thing as “cheap labor.”

    Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children. He takes a job for $5.00 or 6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he files an Income Tax Return, he gets an “earned income credit” of up to $3,200 free.

    He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent.

  • He qualifies for food stamps.
  • He qualifies for free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care.
  • His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school.
  • He requires bilingual teachers and books.
  • He qualifies for relief from high energy bills.
  • If they are, or become, aged, blind or disabled, they qualify for SSI. If qualified for SSI they can qualify for Medicaid. All of this is at (our) taxpayer’s expense.
  • He doesn’t worry about car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance.
  • Taxpayers provide Spanish language signs, bulletins and printed material.
  • He and his family receive the equivalent of $20.00 to $30.00/hour in benefits.

Working Americans are lucky to have $5.00 or $6..00/hour left after paying their bills and his.

Cheap labor? YEAH RIGHT!
THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS WE SHOULD BE ADDRESSING TO THE CONGRESSIONAL MEMBERS OF EITHER PARTY. ‘AND WHEN THEY LIE TO US AND DON’T DO AS THEY SAY, WE SHOULD REPLACE THEM .

Please pass this on to as many as possible. Immigration legislation is to be considered in 2010. This is important to working Americans, our economy and our American culture and heritage..
