To Katherine re: Whole Lotta Shakin'

B"H

Hi Katherine. I have been looking up sources. I saw the dates of the burning of the capital as 24 Aug 1814. I have a conflicting source from a historical anthology (What So Proudly We Hail, by Kass, Kass & Schaub)that says on p747 , in a piece about the writing of "The Star Spangled Banner", the following :"......Key.....inspired.... by the unlikely success of American troops resisting the British attack on Baltimore's Fort McHenry…

AFP: Don't Miss Your Chance to Comment on NLRB's Proposed Rule Change

Americans for Prosperity provided this information.  This does not appear to be good for the worker but will give the unions a big advantage.  There is a link where you can send comments to the NLRB and let them know how you feel about this proposed rule:

Standard Newswire: Black Tea Party Leader Demands Apology from Maxine Waters

Terrific piece and God bless this very brave tea party leader and paster for his stance on this matter.  Maxine Waters does indeed owe the American people an apology for a lot more than just her comments about the tea party.

 

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 23, 2011 /Standard Newswire/ -- South Central L.A. Tea Party Founder and President, Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson is demanding an apology from…

TU: Nonprofit writes Florida law for its own program

I don't think any special interest group should be writing legislation for anything. The state has a legal department that should be taking any and all proposed laws at the state level and making sure they are written to comply with all state law and written in an air tight manner. To say the legislators do not have the ability or the people to put together "legal" legislation makes it sound like the state is run by yahoos and that just isn't true. I don't like the idea at all that… Continue

Three Part Series: An Insider's View of the White House

We have been reading this series of interviews and it felt something like the Watergate scandal and Deep Throat. 

 

We received this from a Washington, DC insider.  If these interviews are true -- we have a serious problem in the White House.  If these interviews are made up -- this makes for a great novel.

 

The language is bad and you will be trying to figure out who is…

Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On!!!

B"H

 

I will develop this further, but I wanted to put a couple of thoughts down before they get away.

 

I could not help but notice that this very unusual earthquake began in the VA area, went into DC and was felt as far as NY!!  Virginia is basically the "womb" of our nation, NY the "wallet" and DC the "seat" of government.  I can't help but think that SOMEONE is trying to get our attention!!!  And in the three most significant places in America.  It is alarming…

My Humble Opinion

My Humble Opinion

There’s a trend I keep seeing on our national political shows, even FOX. The commentators are saying that Americans are scared and afraid of the Obama experience. Well count me out of that crowd. I’m pissed. I am a hard working taxpayer who sees the lazy and unproductive, that includes our elected officials, taking money from me to fund their lazy and unproductive lifestyles. This economy has taken my job and my home from my family and…

WND; M. Massie: When will Obama crack in public?

TU: Public meetings scheduled on Jacksonville City Council redistricting

People need to get involved in this process.  It is very important to make sure our city is redistricted to allow for proper representation.  I already live in a state district that basically gives me no voice in the state senate, and I have no desire to have the city redistricted to eliminate my voice at the city level.  Folks if you have any ideas about this or want to voice an opinion, it is time to get involved.…

TU: Fewer hours at some Jacksonville libraries as director flies off to Europe

For those who have been staying on top of things to do with multiculturism, we know it does not work and will be the downfall of Europe.  Why would we follow Europe off the cliff.  Right now there are countries that are no longer embracing the concept, because it allows other cultures not to accept the culture of the country they move to.  DA, why would we keep moving our train into the train wreck????  This trip is an outrage at a a time when our city is in deep financial…

September 17, 2011 – US Day of Rage - shutting down Wall Street and banks - be prepared

September 17, 2011 – US Day of Rage



This has been billed as a “non violent” (day of RAGE????) takeover of Wall Street and disruption of banks, the stock market and capitalism. It is real. Do an internet search on US Day of Rage. Look up the involvement of Wade Rathke (founder of ACORN) and Stephen Lerner (affiliated with SEIU). I would recommend you educate yourself about this project and understand those who feel capitalism should be… Continue

ACTION ALERT: City Fees Assessment 83% increase proposed. This is a tax increase!

We need to stay on top of this.  This IS a tax increase and a large one at that on everyone including those out of work and struggling to make ends meet.  This is an absolute travesty and is being done in such an underhanded, sneaky way, the city council and the new mayor should be VERY ashamed!…

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
