Texas Girl with a Plan...wish the House & Senate had Same!

 

Wow, this girl has a great plan! Love the last thing she would do the best. This was written by a 21 yr old female who gets it. It's her future she's worried about and this is how she feels about the social welfare big government state that she's being forced to live in! These solutions are just common sense in her opinion. This was in the Waco Tribune Herald, Waco , TX  PUT ME IN CHARGE . . . Put me in charge of food stamps. I'd get rid of Lone Star cards; no cash for Ding Dongs or Ho Ho's, just money for 50-pound bags of rice and beans, blocks of cheese and all the powdered milk you can haul away. If you want steak and frozen pizza, then get a job.  Put me in charge of Medicaid. The first thing I'd do is to get women Norplant birth control implants or tubal ligations. Then, we'll test recipients for drugs, alcohol, and nicotine. If you want to reproduce or use drugs, alcohol, or smoke, then get a job. Put me in charge of government housing. Ever live in a military barracks? You will maintain our property in a clean and good state of repair. Your "home" will be subject to inspections anytime and possessions will be inventoried. If you want a plasma TV or Xbox 360, then get a job and your own place.  In addition, you will either present a check stub from a job each week or you will report to a "government" job. It may be cleaning the roadways of trash, painting and repairing public housing, whatever we find for you. We will sell your 22 inch rims and low profile tires and your blasting stereo and speakers and put that money toward the "common good.." Before you write that I've violated someone's rights, realize that all of the above is voluntary. If you want our money, accept our rules. Before you say that this would be "demeaning" and ruin your "self esteem," consider that it wasn't that long ago thattaking someone else's money for doing absolutely nothing was demeaning and lowered self esteem. If we are expected to pay for other people's mistakes we should at least attempt to make them learn from their bad choices. The current system rewards them for continuing to make bad choices. AND While you are on Gov't subsistence, you no longer can VOTE! Yes, that is correct. For you to vote would be a conflict of interest. You will voluntarily remove yourself from voting while you are receiving a Gov't welfare check. If you want to vote, then get a job.  Now, if you are not afraid of political correctness - PLEASE PASS THIS ON.

 

 

Naughty But Funny: Are you with me, IRS?

At the end of the tax year, the IRS office sent an inspector to audit the books of a local hospital. While the IRS agent was checking the figures, he turned to the CFO of the hospital and said, "I notice you buy a lot of bandages. What do you do with the end of the roll when there's too little left to be of any use?"

"Good question," noted the CFO. "We save them up and send them back to the bandage company and every once in a while they send us a free roll."

"Oh," replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual question had a practical answer.

But on he went, in his obnoxious way. "What about all these plaster purchases? What do you do with what's left over after setting a cast on a patient?"

"Ah, yes," replied the CFO, realizing that the inspector was trying to trap him with an unanswerable question. "We save it and send it back to the manufacturer and every so often they will send us a free bag of plaster." I see," replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the know-it-all CFO.

"Well," he went on, "what do you do with all the remains from the circumcision surgeries?"

"Here, too, we do not waste," answered the CFO. "What we do is save all the little foreskins and send them to the IRS office, and about once a year they send us a complete prick."

Holy Humor....... GOD ENJOYS A GOOD LAUGH!      There were 3 good arguments that Jesus was Black:  1. He called everyone brother  2. He liked Gospel   3. He didn't get a fair trial  But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Jewish:   1. He went into His Father's business  2. He lived at home until he was 33  3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin and his Mother was sure He was God  But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Italian:   1. He talked with His hands  2. He had wine with His meals  3. He used olive oil  But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was aCalifornian:   1. He never cut His hair  2. He walked around barefoot all the time  3. He started a new religion  But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was anAmerican Indian:  1. He was at peace with nature  2. He ate a lot of fish  3. He talked about the Great Spirit  But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Irish:  1. He never got married..  2. He was always telling stories.  3. He loved green pastures.  But the most compelling evidence of all - 3 proofs that Jesus was a woman:  1. He fed a crowd at a moment's notice when there was virtually no food  2. He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just didn't get it  3. And even when He was dead, He had to get up because there was still work to do    Can I get an AMEN!!

A word from the principal architect responsible for the smoke n mirrors libtardian-demo-socialist currently destroying the USA! He's just a babbling idiot...she's the brain!

Hello, everyone -- President Obama was just two years old when Dr. King, along with hundreds of thousands of ordinary folks, inspired the country at the March on Washington. The President is a full generation removed from the heroes who marched across the bridge in Selma, who boycotted the buses in Montgomery, who integrated the lunch counters in Greensboro, but they inspired his commitment to public service. And if his presidency is a symbol of the progress we've made as a nation, his speech yesterday -- a full half century after the March on Washington -- was an impassioned call to continue building on the work of the civil rights movement. It was quite a moment. Take a minute to watch the video, then share it with your friends. We too often forget that when the crowds converged on the National Mall 50 years ago, they were marching for jobs and freedom. The speakers talked about rolling back oppression, but they also demanded equal access to opportunity and a fair shot at economic success. We have made great progress, but these goals remain just as relevant today as they were in 1963. Every American deserves to feel the pride of a hard-earned paycheck and the opportunity to achieve their dreams, regardless of who they are or where they are born. As President Obama said, "The arc of the moral universe may bend toward justice, but it doesn't bend on its own. To secure the gains this country has made requires constant vigilance, not complacency."

SAD NEWS FOR SKIER LINDSEY VONN

This past winter, Olympic champion Lindsey Vonn tore the anterior cruciate ligament and medial collateral ligament in her right knee and fractured her tibia during a harrowing ski accident in Schlamding, Austria. Vonn was airlifted by helicopter to a hospital in Schladming. Concerned that she wouldnbt be ready for the 2014 Winter Olympics, the U.S. Olympic Committee announced today that her spot on the U.S. Olympic Team would be filled by Barack Obama. U.S. Olympic officials said Obama deserved the spot on the team because no one has ever taken a country downhill faster than he has.

But, by the time I got my leotards on, the class was over.

HMMMMMM!

 

Below by David Morris Iran, China, and Russia have all warned us that they would retaliate against the US if we take any action agains Assad in Syria. If Russia or China decide that they want to retaliate against us, they have a world of options...the easiest of which would be to facilitate the crash of the dollar to get even with the US for selling them Treasuries and paying them back with dollars that are worth less money than what they paid in the first place. Iran, though, is the wildcard of the bunch. Enough so that Israelis are buying gas masks in bulk, even though they've been in the crosshairs of chemical attacks for at least the last generation. If Iran attacks us, it's not like we'll stop trading with them like we would with Russia and China. Since we don't have many positive relations with Iran that we can sever, they don't have the disincentives that Russia and China currently do. So what could Iran do...or more accurately, what do we KNOW Iran can do and what have they said they would do? Well, they have been exporting fighters and expertise to Muslim conflicts for decades. Their unconventional/asymetrical warfare tactics are honed and well practiced, as are their instructional methods. And we know that their elite Quds forces have been pre-positioned in the US for quite some time. Conventional thought was that they were pre-positioned here so that Iran could quickly and easily retaliate in the event that we attacked their nuclear facilities or supported Israel in an attack on Iran's nuclear facilities. It's not too big of a stretch to think that now, as Iran is warning us not to interfere in Syria, that these pre-positioned assets would be a big part of any retaliation against the US. So, again...let's not look at what they COULD do...let's look at what they've done in other conflicts and what they've said they'd do: 1. Wildfire attacks. The Japanese was unsuccessful in their firebombing attacks on US forests during WWII, but their strategy provided a roadmap for future generations. 2. Infrastructure failure from wildfires. Wildfires in areas where there are power lines can have a double effect of knocking out the electrical grid locally or regionally. As power lines heat up, they get more resistance and makes them stretch. If the lines stretch too much, they short out. As the resistance increases, not enough power gets to the end of the lines. Ash, dirt, and other sediment in the water can reduce the quantity and quality of water getting downstream for drinking and agriculture. 3. Bombings. Especially bombings combined with radio jamming and denial of service attacks on emergency call centers and first responders by robo-dialers to prevent effective responses. 4. Attacks on schools. (Think "Beslan Masaccre") Cause enough fear and schools close and parents pull their kids out of schools. Until parents figure out childcare, national GDP drops. If schools close, do teachers still get paid? If they don't get paid, their spending is going to drop and investments in the stock market by teacher retirement funds dry up. 5. Attacks on markets/currency. This could be simple kinetic attacks against exchanges, denial of service attacks against web sites or call centers, or it could be a semi-sophisticated bear raid like what triggered the 2008 market crash. It could also be a denial of service attack or full-on hacking attack on credit card networks. 6. Random acts of violence in gun free zones. This has been happening around the globe for decades. Simply declaw and defang the sheepdog and the wolves can eat as many sheep as they want. 7. Oil. Our unwillingness to become energy independent gives Iran a lot of leverage against us. Roughly 20% of the world's oil passes through the Strait of Hormuz and Iran has spent the last several years figuring out tactics to control it...even against a US Naval carrier group. Besides lining the shores and islands with anti-ship missiles, they have developed a "swarming" attack technique with small, fast, manuverable attack boats. In EVERY non-classified US naval exercise, these swarming attacks eventually defeat our ships. 8. Freighter based Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) attacks. Iran has already tested ship based launching systems for EMP-specific warhead delivery. Russian arms dealers even have rocket launchers built to look like a shipping container. Bring one of these sereptuitously across the Atlantic, launch it in international waters, and we've got a serious problem.

MESS IN SYRIA

After two years of trying to avoid involvement in a conflict that he fears could easily become a long-term quagmire, that has little popular appeal at home, and that his own Pentagon chiefs have essentially called a losing proposition, President Barack Obama stands on the edge of a unilateral military commitment in Syria.

The reasons the situation has come to this are many and varied, but the most complex one can be summarized in one word: Iran.

As the force behind the Syrian regime, Iran is the country most responsible for fueling the regime's fight, and the nation whose influence will be most enhanced if President Bashar al-Assad prevails.

Of more immediate concern, Iran also is the country with a dangerous nuclear program, and therefore the one most prone to draw the wrong conclusions if Syria's alleged use last week of its own weapon of mass destruction—chemical arms—stands unchallenged.

The Iran factor, in short, is the elephant in the room, creating an exquisite dilemma for a president who might otherwise find plenty of good reasons to keep his distance.

The Syrian fight and the killing and displacement of civilians it has wrought present big humanitarian concerns, as did the conflict in Rwanda in the 1990s. Syria's fight also presents big worries about who holds the balance of power in an important region, as did the conflict in Kosovo in the same decade. In Rwanda, the concerns didn't prompt U.S. military involvement; in Kosovo, they did, in the form of a 77-day NATO air campaign.

But largely because of Iran's role, Syria's conflict falls into a different category, one in which America's global interests are engaged. Syria has become essentially a proxy war pitting an Iranian-led axis—Iran, President Assad and their allies in the Hezbollah movement—against virtually everybody else in the Middle East.

What now makes it a broader question is the move of weapons of mass destruction to the center of the conflict. Monday's declaration by Secretary of State John Kerry that the Syrian government's use of chemical weapons against its own people is "undeniable" will make it harder to avoid at least the perception of linkage to the even more serious struggle to contain Iran's nuclear program.

Mr. Obama has said it wouldn't be acceptable for Syria to use chemical weapons, just as he has said it wouldn't be acceptable for Iran to develop nuclear weapons. He now must ponder whether the credibility of the first statement will affect the credibility of the second. That question burns particularly hot as the administration considers entering nuclear talks with the government of Iran's new president, Hasan Rouhani, even as Iran continues to deny it has nuclear-arms ambitions.

At the same time, if American force ultimately helps oust Mr. Assad, that outcome might merely increase Iran's sense of isolation and fuel its desire for a nuclear weapon as a kind of security blanket.

All those considerations will be cranked into American decision-making on whether to launch a cruise missile strike against Syrian targets. Such a strike would be limited, designed to make the point that chemical weapons use comes at a price, rather than aimed to magically turn the military tide against Mr. Assad. Still, even a limited action would involve considerable short-term and long-run risks.

In a letter sent a few days ago to Democratic Rep. Eliot Engel of New York, who had asked for an analysis of military options in Syria, Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, bluntly analyzed the effects of military action. He said that while the U.S. has the ability to knock out Syrian air power with limited strikes, such a move would do little to clean up the Syrian mess.

"It is a deeply rooted, long-term conflict among multiple factions, and violent struggles for power will continue after Assad's rule ends," he wrote. "We should evaluate the effectiveness of limited military options in this context."

Any action would carry immediate risks. Tensions with Russia, Syria's other big benefactor, would rise instantly. The chances of terrorism directed by Syria's allies against American targets would increase. Any military escalation carries the danger of expanding the war around the region.

Similarly, the long-term risks that have persuaded Mr. Obama to try to stay on the sidelines are no less real now than before. The president's biggest concerns have been twofold: First, when the U.S. gets involved in such a conflict, it would be expected to inject enough force to prevail. It's hard for a superpower to get involved halfway in any conflict. Again, the question of credibility would arise.

Second, once the U.S. wades in, it's more likely than any other country to own the mess that would follow a victory—defined here as the downfall of President Assad's regime. The forces trying to take his place include many unappetizing Islamists who share few other interests with the U.S.

Sorting through the rubble could take years.
