Since Obama and his Justice department want to sue states that are forced to do what he refuses to do, the states should sue the Feds for the huge costs incurred by illegal immigration. If Obama feels that states like Arizona are infringing and interfering with federal laws on illegal immigration, then they should pay the bills caused by the illegals.  Texas is a good example! “Texas spent at least $250 million in the past year for medical care and imprisonment of illegal immigrants and other non-citizens.”

If $250 million is the cost of one year in Texas, what is the cost for all states in only one year? The cost MUST be staggering! It’s amazing what the tax payers have to dish out so the politicians can get the “Hispanic” vote! What other reason is there? If it is “compassion” where is the compassion for all legal citizens, including the Hispanic?

 Muslims seem to get more religious rights than Christians in our government schools lately. Would Obama have anything to do with that? Not sure but something is going on here that seems strange, if not unconstitutional!

“In Dearborn, Mich., where schools are closed on both the day before and the day of Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, the predominantly-Muslim football team has switched its two-a-day summer practice schedule to 11 p.m. to 4 a.m. during Ramadan, so that Muslim players — who fast while the sun is up – won’t be forced to practice in the heat without drinking water.”

“The move received little backlash in Dearborn, because most of the football players are Muslims. But syndicated columnist and Fox News contributor Cal Thomas says he doesn’t see Christian students getting similar accommodations around the country.”

“It is instructive to me that schools are going out of their way to discriminate against Christians by denying them the right to voluntarily pray with coaches and other players before games, but those same schools bend over backwards to accommodate Muslim student athletes for Ramadan,” Thomas told FoxNews.com.

“This is worse than a double standard. It is singling out one religion and giving it priority over all others. And that is, or ought to be, unconstitutional.”

“The 14 crosses erected along Utah roads to commemorate fallen state Highway Patrol troopers convey a state preference for Christianity and are a violation of the U.S. Constitution, a federal appeals court said Wednesday.”

“But American Atheists, Inc., the Texas-based group that sued to have the crosses removed from state property, argued that the crosses could imply that the trooper who died there was a Christian.”

What’s next? N0 crosses for our military men and woman who lost their lives defending our country. Those crosses and stars of David are also on public property. Why is it that a hand full of disgruntled atheists seem to overrule the majority. Those crosses are a memorial to honor the lives of those lost in battle. Likewise, the crosses along the highways in Utah are there to honor the lives of the troopers who lost their lives doing their duty to protect it’s citizens. Those troopers lost their lives on the very spot that the crosses are erected.

It does seem to indicate that there are those that seem to care more about some ill conceived notion that the “separation of church and state” exists in the U.S. Constitution than the lost lives of our men and women who are here to serve us at risk to their lives. Kind of reminds me of the Mosque that Obama believes should be built near the 9-11 site where 3000 innocent people lost their lives due to Muslim terrorists.

Again, a cross and the star of David are there to represent and to remember the lost lives of real human beings, not a religion. This is obviously very hard for those that have no religion to understand. If someone can come up with a marker to represent atheists that have been killed in the line of duty, will they be OK with that? I doubt it! It isn’t the law or the constitution that the Atheists are worried about. They just want everybody to be just like them and to deny the rights and/or wishes of those they disagree with. Many of these people have no class, no manners, are rude, crude, foul mouthed and are unsympathetic to all those that are decent. Did I say uncivil and sometimes violent?

Why is it OK for the reverend Jesse Jackson to use the word Hymie to describe Jews and for Jew hater Farrakhan to say whatever he wants about Jews without the mainstream media making it an issue? Why can blacks use the “n” word repeatedly and no comments form the MSM? The late Senator Bird used the n word twice on television and not a word was said by the MSM.

Dr Laura Schlessinger used the n word several times recently and she is now crucified by the MSM. I am not defending her, she messed up! If anyone needs to be scrutinized, the MSM needs to scrutinized for their double standard and selective choices in who they rant against. They give liberals a pass but not conservatives. No one should get a pass for defamatory statements against a particular race. It is dividing America! So is the Mainstream media!

The quote below is from Drew Mason’s article “The Fed Declares War on America”

“The message, that the government has decided it’s politically acceptable to torpedo the life savings of many Americans, is disconcerting.”

Quoted from Larry Edelson article “Read this now…”

“…as the Dow plunges going into November, the U.S. Federal Reserve will start printing more money to inflate away the problems.  No matter how much it takes.”

See link to article —must read:

Both Mason & Edelson state the FED is going to print trillions of U.S. dollars. With Mason saying;

“Washington knows what it’s doing to savers and middle class in particular, but its action shout that it doesn’t care.”

Neither Mason or Edelson have crystal balls that see into the future to make these projections, and of course using what they say as the financial gospel would be a big mistake on my part.  But I could use their information and just ask a simple question.  Will the FED print trillions of dollars and why, with the why as the key part of the question?  If you believe they will print trillions of dollars what is going to happen to the dollar?  The dollar will become worth less if that happens and I think all of us could agree on that.

Maybe OPEC’s Mahmoud Ahmadinejad already knows what the heck is going on for Mason quotes him as saying;

“…refecting on the dollar, OPEC’s Mahmoud Ahmadinejadsaid: ‘They get our oil and give us a worthless piece of paper.’  That’s not a comforting comment to those American savers who are betting their financial future on “worthless piece(s) of paper” in the form of savings accounts, money market accounts, and bond holdings.”

The capitalistic bent toward the financial system breeding freedom is well known and has reached a point to where it is almost put forth as the way to salvation with freedom for all the masses around the globe, including China.  If what is about to happen as Mason and Edelson project it, will hurt the Capitalist middle class here in America, it will not be freedom but control and slavery.  The middle class will be gone, done away with, and we will still have some form of a money system in place but nothing like what we started with, even as it is being sold to us as some kind of capitalistic system.

 “ Authoritian regimes round the world are showing that they can reap the benefits of economic development while evading any pressure to relax their political control.”

“If this is so, why is it that so many political scientists have hither assumed that a rich China will be a free one?”

“ The fact is that Chinese society is explicitly structured to preclude the sort of bottom-up, Liberalization-by-osmosis tendencies assumed by those who predict that political freedom is in China’s future.”

These last quotes are from Eamonn Fingleton book “In the Jaws of the Dragon”  America fate in the coming era of Chinese Dominance copy right 2008 St. Martin’s Press.

The rich “Progressive” understand only to well the means to control and any fool who believes the capitalistic system will lead to freedom is completely void of understanding.  The FED in conjunction with the U.S. government is no longer leading the world to freedom but under the current Progressive movement has done a complete directional shift and is now taking America into and/or toward an Authoritian regime based on the corrupt governments of the world.  The U.S. government has learned from China how to control its citizens.

Mason and Edelson do not indicate the philosophy of these moves and they are only giving us signs that something is about to happen, this something is locking us ever deeper into the transition of this control and authoritian government.

Both sides of the political aisle there in Washington are brain washed into having a “Progressive” view of these times and both have moved and/or are moving away from the Godly, Biblical foundation that our government once had.  The just weights and measures of a money system are not there; it has become nothing but a system of control and now adding to it government authority.  The FED’s controls the governments, the government controls the people and the people will do what they are told.

We Shall See don’t you think?    
 
 

It appears the BASD, City of Bethlehem, the Bethlehem Redevelopment Authority, and the County of Northampton are locked into a dispute over the financial arrangements of projects there on the south side of Bethlehem, were the Bethlehem Steel once produced steel for this great country.  We now have a Gambling Casino, Hotel on the site and soon to come other projects on the backs of the taxpayer.   

The Bethlehem Area School District has sent out a press release dated August 12th 2010 letting the other party’s know were the BASD stands.
Press Release titled: 
RE:   PRIORITIES AND CONCERNS OF BETHLEHEM AREA SCHOOL DISTRICT REGARDING TIF FINANCING

http://www.beth.k12.pa.us/

I am writing this as private citizen and not as a reflection of the Concerned Citizens- Bethlehem Area School District (CC-BASD) board on which I sit, the CC-BASD board are not to be held responsible for the content of this article I placed on my “Blog”.

With that disclaimer and little back ground let me begin.

Over the past 18+months I have tried to impress upon the school board and the school district they do not appear to care for the taxpayer.  I was told by one board member that there was no way they would consider a zero base budget and more then one board member told me there was no way they would consider not voting for a tax increase and could not agree to not raising taxes if needed and I say; when would the tax increase not be needed?  The continual ploy was that they were doing it for the education of the children, all the while I was telling them the taxpayer could not afford these tax increases and they must hold the line.

In your Press Release you make statements like, “BASD and its Board of Directors are stewards of taxpayers dollars.”  I don’t ever remember hearing any of the Board saying something like that.  I counted 6 times in your press release were you stated your concern for the taxpayer and so state that, you included words like “Proper”, “Necessary” uses of the taxpayers money.

I have no idea or clue as to what woke you up to be concerned for the taxpayers and in fact I find those words somewhat disingenuous.  Your care for the taxpayer was hidden all these 18+ months I have attended the school board meeting and to have them burst on to the scene is surprising, pleasing and comforting if in fact I could believe you were sincere.  What I think you are doing is strengthening your position using the taxpayer, it is quite obvious the children nor the teachers can re-enforce your position so why not use the taxpayers as the pawn or should I say “Knight” to buttress your defense.

This whole scheme is putting the future generation of citizens/children into debt and it doesn’t really matter how you slice up the pie.  You are only going to be concerned for the taxpayer until the slice of the pie seems right to the board, so let’s not give too much of an elusion the board cares for the Taxpayer.

Your Press Release makes it very clear, if this pie is sliced correctly as the board would like it to be, you have all intentions of moving ahead, so the press release states in the last sentence.  Let me say, not so much for myself, but future generations, they will want to know how much this is going to cost them.  Why don’t you tell the future taxpayers how much “Principal” and “Interest” this scheme will cost them and for how long?

We Shall See what is to happen, and shortly             

Obama says: “Ramadan is a celebration of a faith known for great diversity and racial equality … a reminder that Islam has always been part of America and that American Muslims have made extraordinary contributions to our country.”

What contributions? Blowing up the twin towers and killing 3000 innocent Americans? Didn’t Obama once say that we were no longer a Christian nation? Yes he did! He said that in Turkey in April of 2009. Here is another thing he said that same day:

“We will convey our deep appreciation for the Islamic faith, which has done so much over the centuries to shape the world — including in my own country.” Arguably, this is a true statement — if by his “own country” Obama was referring to Kenya!”

Here is the truth:

“The primary contact our Founding Fathers had with Islam occurred during their struggles with the Barbary pirates, who from 1500-1800 carried over a million European Christians — including some Americans — into Muslim slavery. For centuries the Knights of Malta protected Europe from the Barbary pirates, but after their demise the European powers decided that paying tribute to the Barbary rulers in exchange for protection was easier and cheaper than fighting them. But this galled the Americans. In 1786, while Thomas Jefferson and John Adams were in Europe, they asked the ambassador from Tripoli by what right Tripoli could claim tribute from nations which had done his country no injury. Jefferson and Adams reported the ambassador’s response:

It was written in their Koran that all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet [Mohammed] were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of the faithful [Muslims] to plunder and enslave; and that every muslim who was slain in this warfare was sure to go to paradise.”

Is it any wonder why so many people believe that Obama is not a born in America citizen? It’s no wonder he won’t produce a valid birth certificate. I can’t prove he wasn’t and Obama won’t prove he was! Which would be easier?

Democrat Charles Rangel and Maxine Waters, members of the Black Caucus, are in “ethical” trouble. The Ethics board claims they suspect “alleged” ethics problems with the 2 senior black members of the Democrat party. Maxine Waters claims she did nothing “inappropriate”! Charles Rangel claims he is here to stay. I guess that would be the typical response from persons that belong to an all black only group like the Black Caucus. They are nothing less than the “Black Panthers” dressed up to look important, hiding behind their political rank in the Democrat party and thinking they are carrying on the good work of Martin Luther King. That’s bogus! They may not be carrying nightsticks but their influence and power is far more harmful to the people they claim to represent. The party and the mainstream media has given them cover for their misgivings, ever since the Black Caucus began in 1969. These people are treated as royalty simply because they are black and seem to think they are somehow, special and untouchable by the law or anyone that questions their dubious behavior. Only they can be victims of oppression, they claim!

The mainstream media outlets claim that Maxine Waters should be excused because she spent her whole political career helping the poor. They won’t mention that she has helped herself get rich off the taxpayers during this time. If anyone questions her, she raises the question of race discrimination. The residual look of hate on her face for whites is so apparent, not to mention her past remarks when her honesty is brought into question.

Rangel thinks he is too important to be questioned about anything. “How dare you question me”, he says in defiance! “If I am guilty, hang me now or shut up” he seems to be saying to the Ethics Committee.

Both claim to help the poor. What they really mean is that they only help the poor blacks who vote Democrat. What kind of help are they giving to the poor blacks? Well, how about welfare in it’s different forms? How about Aid For Dependent Children, most of which have no fathers to hold accountable. The illustrious Maxine Waters has been involved in “pressuring” banks to make housing loans to poor blacks that really can’t afford a home. Over 75% of these loans default after a short time. The taxpayers are left holding the bag! Material gain is not the same as character gain. Martin Luther King said: “Judge us by our character, not the color of our skin.”

Are these Black Caucus members really helping the poor blacks or are they making things worse? That’s easy. Look around. Obviously, it has made the poor even poorer and is giving the poor a false sense of security. It has also made many of the poor blacks feel “entitled” to other people’s money and to commit crimes in the name of “getting even”. The black communities all over are in serious trouble from a moral standpoint. Out of wedlock babies, crime and unemployable unemployed are a few of the problems. There are more but these are the most obvious to those of us that are affected by these “unintended” consequences. The Democrats seem to want the poor to have everything material except a proper and politically balanced education which is the key to escape from the bad circumstances many find themselves in. I would like to know just one good thing the Democrats have done for the poor that allows them to compete in our diverse society. Without the “poor, helpless victim” vote, the Democrats lose! Blacks are just as successful as whites when they refuse to be classified as victims and put in the required effort.

In summary, the left, such as the Black Caucus and the Democrat party has been giving the wrong kind of help to the poor. Instead of making them more self reliant, they are making them more dependent on government entitlements. In other words, our tax money. The dreams of the poor are wiped out and the pride of the once proud black communities is gone. Equality should be for all but we must strive to earn it!

I often wonder why we need a Black Caucus or the NAACP. We don’t, no more than we need a White Caucus or a NAAWP! Reverse discrimination must be stopped if we are to be healed as a country. Don’t look for that to happen anytime soon, not under Obama and the Democrats, whose main objective is to “help” blacks only, at the expense of all tax payers and to divide and conquer for political gain.

There are serious problems out there and unless there is an elevation of the intensity in purpose, changing of direction from which the corrections are coming, we shall not stand or make it for another generation.  That comes from, a person blowing his trumpet and one that has watched the last 50 year of deterioration in the Social Fabric and Culture, the Education, the Church, the Ethics and Morals and finally the Government and its policies.  We have become a Socialist/Welfare State and any Fool that thinks this type of government will have compassion on the citizens is indeed a simpleton and a fool.

The so call “Socialist” and Money Changers of the Elite class want nothing more then to have the people at one level, that being under them and all poor, relying on their hand out.  I have come to the conclusion that as quickly as they (the Elitist) can figure out how to control the crowds without the good guys being in place; they will destroy America and all the good guys.  What they have not figured out is; how are they going to keep from devouring each other when the United States is no longer in place to give the elusion of some Good Guys fighting the Bad Guys.  They are well aware of what happen to Robespierre and the complete break down of the law.

If you think me bordering on some kind of sickness, think again, if in fact there is no goodness that can be defined and all government is in one form or another corrupt, what are they going to do to control the level of badness?  Is there going to be a gauge to make that judgment call, saying its to hot (bad) or not to worry that behavior is OK and we can stand more badness.  Why we have lost the gauge already here in the good old USA and we have not truly turned bad YET.

Without God, the Bible and Jesus Christ there is nothing in the way of a gauge to tell us how bad we will be or have become, remember that.  So all you ungodly “Socialist” keep that in mind as you March toward Hell.  As it gets worse here on earth, this will only be the tip of the iceberg as to how really bad it is going to get.  There is Hell, after death, think long and hard on that, and it will not be a place you will want to be spending your time at or in.

We Shall See don’t you think?  Where is the Church and will God have mercy on us?

Here you go folks—-just received this.  Doesn’t look like the lesser magistrate is going to do anything—-at least this person does not think they will.  Sad isn’t it??????
 
“The bad guys actually think they are the good guys and they think the good guys are the bad guys. They also think they are smarter. The only reason they think they are smarter is because the media gives them a free pass to succeed in whatever they want to succeed in.
As for the lesser magistrate, most of them are cowards and afraid to step forward to lead. That could be that we haven’t been “pushed” hard enough by the evil men that control our government right now. Take away all the perks of the politicians and put them on our level and they will change their minds soon enough. Most politicians live in their own little world and have little concept of what we face every day. Good article,”
