losing my job

losing my job

Guest written by our friend Mason Abbott

Man, getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me. There were massive layoffs at my company which was happening everywhere and I was one of the last to go – they said they loved me but just couldn’t afford to keep me on. I was really devastated at first because I had no idea where to go but once I got my head about me I started looking for another job. I knew it would probably be a long process so I hunkered down and came up with some ways to save money in the meantime so I wouldn’t go broke. I called my credit card company and renegotiated my interest rate and went to texaselectricityPROVIDERS.com and found out I was paying too much for energy. I had a big garage sale and got rid of a bunch of junk I didn’t need and made a few hundred dollars that way. I found a new job after about three months though it doesn’t pay as well as my old one, but it’s a job!

Too Much Government Control

Well the Republicans tried to save us from the evil new light bulb but they were unable to roll back the law that will make light bulbs, as we know them, unavailable after the first of the year.

If you dislike the new bulbs as much as I do perhaps you should start now to stock up on our old familiar bulbs while you still can.

I read an article this morning which says that GE will be introducing a new LED bulb which will be quite improved but it will cost...are you ready for this...upwards of $50.00 each. Now think about this...who will be able to afford to buy these bulbs, even if they do last a long time. Imagine moving into a new house, or apartment, and needing to purchase bulbs at this price for every socket in the house. You know the folks moving out will not be leaving their bulbs.

Where do I sign up for the revolution? Have you thought about all the freedoms this administration has or is in the process of eliminating. If this man were to be re-elected we would not recognize our country at the end of his second term. I am having a problem recognizing our country now and he still has months to go.

Perhaps everyone who cares should just move to Texas. They seem to be making good decisions while many other states are making decisions which in the end will be destructive to all of us.

Speaking of Texas. I just learned something I didn't know. In Texas, and perhaps in other states as well, as a consumer you have a choice as to who you purchase your electricity from.

This information is to be found on a website called http://www.texaselectricityproviders.com/. It appears that there are several choices available from which to choose and even though is seems that it is the same power flowing through your wires each offering company decides on it's own pricing.

Perhaps every state should offer what they are offering at http://www.texaselectricityproviders.com/.

The website is interesting. I'm not sure who provides it but you have the option of filling out a form and receiving competitive pricing from several different providers. Perhaps those of us in all the states where a monopoly exists, and we are stuck with whatever our power company cares to charge us, should start a movement to do away with monopolies. There are laws that keep most companies from forming a monopoly but the government is still protecting select types of companies ie electricity. I think the choices which are shown on http://www.texaselectricityproviders.com/ is a great way to do business and one we should all be able to take advantage of.

Accountability in American Politics

Are you paying attention to the situation in which America finds herself or are you one of the millions of people whose heads are firmly planted in the sand?
It is amazing, to me, that at a time when we are in debt over fourteen trillion dollars (an amount none of us can get our minds around) that still the liberals in congress will state that spending should still be done to specific programs because "it is a good program".

Let's see if you are personally broke and you have a car which is in bad shape purchasing a new car would be a good thing, but does a reasonable person go out and buy one, knowing full well that you can't pay for it?

Is this the way these people, in Washington, run there own lives?

When people vote for a person to represent them they seem to think that personal responsibility and moral responsibility should not be considered in their decision. I would like to say that a person's honesty and morals cannot be separated into a personal life and a political life. We all make our decisions based on our beliefs. It is silly to think that a person can do otherwise. If you are an honest person you will not make a dishonest decision. If you live your life in dishonesty, (ie) Weiner's dishonesty in sending suggestive emails to women, not his wife, is dishonest. Therefore all his decisions and acts can and should be called into question.

It is time we, as voters, stop making excuses for those people running for office. It is time we stop accepting what they say rather than doing our homework to find out what they have done. It is time we hold all elected officials accountable. Then and only then can we expect accountability in Washington, in our state capitals and in our local government.

Wake Up America

Do you understand where our country is headed? If you think things are going along as usual perhaps you are not spending enough time paying attention.
Our country is being run by a bunch of idiots who don't have the collective sense to run a lemonade stand.
Out of all the members of the house and the senate (do you even know how many people this is) there is perhaps a dozen who realize just how serious it is for our country to be in debt 14 trillion dollars. We can't even wrap our minds around that kind of money so how do you think we will ever pay it back.
It is real folks.
Now lets consider what is going on in Wisconsin , in Ohio , in Indiana, in Florida and there is more to come. OOps forgot New Jersey.
For far too long the public workers unions here in America have been running the show. They determine how much they will be paid, how much we will pay for their pensions, how they will run our schools and what will be taught etc etc.
Let's face it, when the unions make demands on our elected official, decisions are being made about what we, the taxpayers, will pay and the decision is being made by the idiots we elect and who will only be in office for a short time. In order to get reelected they will gladly give the unions, the ones who are contributing large sums of money to their campaigns, whatever they want in the way of wages, and benefits. They are not business people, in fact most people in politics have never run a business or paid a payroll or had to worry about the bottom line.
They worry only about getting reelected not about the good of their commuity.
In Wisconsin the union thugs have destroyed the grounds around the capital and done great damage to the interior. They have blocked and threatened the elected officials from entering their offices and they are demanding their rights, which don't exist unless they are given to them by the elected officials.They are now sending DEATH THREATS.
Meanwhile the democrats who lost the majority in the last election, just said we don't like the way things are going so we will just leave the state and go to Illinois. They have been there for over three weeks, preventing the work of the state from going forward and telling the world that this is no way to run a democracy.
Well remember this...we are not a democracy. WE are a republic. That is where we are losing it. WE don't know what we are. Remember "And to the Republic, for which it stands one nation, under god, with liberty and justice for all."

Bilderderg Group and the Cfr

If the two names in the title of this article are not familiar to you then be assured that you are not alone.

I have become aware of the two, quite separately, in the last few days. The first was when I stumbled upon a youtube video entitled The Obama Deception. It turned out to be an almost two hour video, not particularly about Obama but rather about the CFR and a group called Bilderberg.

I watch the complete video because, quite frankly, I couldn't pull myself away from it. It's theme was very simple. A very large group of wealthy and influential individuals and corporations plan to take over the world and run it as they see fit.

I'm sure you have heard bits and pieces about One World Order maybe under that name,maybe under another but the same idea.

Since the election of Obama we have heard much about his moving us toward socialism but after watching the video and then connecting it to other information I feel his threat is as nothing compared to the bigger threat from much more dangerous groups.

The video also indicates that it matters not, in most cases which candidate wins, they almost all fall under the influence of this group and another.

My second exposure came just a day or so later when I picked up a little book entitled "The CFR" At the top of the cover it says "America's Unelected Rulers. The book was first published in 1968 and the author is Phoebe Courtney.

I googled Phoebe and found that she had been considered a right wing radical in the 60's. She wrote several books, many of which are available online some in PDF format and some available for purchase. I would strongly advise anyone interested in our country and it's welfare to begin your own research into what has been going on for many years. Secretly.

The book goes into great detail about people and events, publication, speeches etc regarding how the CFR members had become, since the early 50's totally immersed in our government, in our schools, in our media and how they had begun, even then to turn this country the way they wanted it turned. To dumb down our educational system and through the control of the new public television stations.

They made the decision to keep the American citizens in the dark as to what they were planning and to keep from us as much information as they could about the decision making in Washington.

In 1966, despite all that was going on with Russia and with Viet Nam the following publication was released. Publication 8117, August 1966 stated.

"At the direction of the President, secretary of Sate Dean Rusk on May 11,1966 sent to the Congress purposed legislation to provide the President with authority necessary to negotiate commercial agreements with the Soviet Union and other Communist nations of Eastern Europe, to widen United States trade in peaceful goods...."

The State Department publication goes on to state that "in no case does our policy permit trade with Communist countries in war material and other strategic items".

It was a lie.

The book "CFR" follows up with a list of materials, all of which are used in making war equipment.

The list of countries to which these goods were sold include U.S.S.R., Romania,Bulgaria etc. eight in total.

On January 26, 1967 Congressman Glenard P. Lipscomb (R-Calif)revealed how the Johnson Administration is actually granting export licenses for the shipment of strategic material to the Communist bloc.

On March 18, 1968 Senator Karl Mundt (R-S.Dak) declared that while some 400 items had been previously de-controlled for export "of far more significance to the Communist bloc countries has been the adoption of a more permissive review of some 1900 categories of items still under export control as strategic materials.

Senator Karl Mundt then revealed the following:

"included among the shipments of to the Communist countries which have been specifically approved for these 1900 permissive items, are items such as the Worden gravity meter, and diethylene glycol, an ingredient used in the manufacture of explosive and liquid rocket propellants.

According to an editorial in the Richmond News Leader of August 24, 1967. The Worden gravity meter "made of quartz fibers, Worden meters require such skill that fewer than a dozen experts - all Americans - can put one together. The primary purpose of a device of such accuracy is to provide date for guided missile trajectory determinations'.

This and many more decisions which literally sent to the Communist the equipment to kill our soldiers in Viet Nam and which forbade bombing in places which could have won the war for us, happened because the decision was being made, not by officials working for the good of America but made by the "Unelected officials" who have infiltrated our government.

This is just one example among many in the book,all referenced and substantiated which occurred in that period. I guarantee you will be amazed and shocked at the things which have been going on. I personally feel like a total fool for having been negligent in my duty as a citizen as to having been totally unaware of these things.

If it was bad in the 60's it has only become far worse in the year 2010.

The CFR and the Bilderberg group are closely related, very closely with members of one group being members of the other as well. The banking industry is the basic controllers and the Fed is theirs to do with as they like. And look who is in charge, big time, in this administration. It is not Wall Street...it is banking.

Check these out:

The video, The Obama Deception http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7886780711843120756#

At http://333crucible.wordpress.com/2010/02/23/bilderberg-group/

You will learn about the Bilderberg group, several short but informative videos.

These groups have been in place since the early years of the 20th century. More people are learning of this every day and perhaps this is the reason the Tea Party groups are growing by leaps and bounds. The time has come when we must "take back our country" or lose it forever.

I'll close this with a paragraph from the book CFR:

But the CFR's plans can be thwarted!

How ? In the American way - political action at the grass-roots level by independent thinking Americans.

Inasmuch as the Constitution provides that the American people shall elect the President of the United States, it then becomes incumbent upon every liberty loving American to vote in presidential elections only for a candidate who is truly independent. A man that the CFR cannot control. And, of course, this presidential candidate must be a man who recognizes the Communist menace at home and abroad.

I hope everyone who reads this will do the research, get the information and decide to stand up for the Freedoms which our Founders fought and died to leave us. We can do no less.

The deed is done

Well the deed is done. I don't want to give Obama and his minions any credit so the deed I am speaking of is the first lawsuit has been filed against a horrible take over of our rights. This takeover took place this AM as Obama put pen to paper to sign into law the biggest crime against the Constitution to take place since the days of FDR's New Deal. It should have been called Raw Deal.

As each new entitlement has been enacted more and more citizens have become weaker and weaker. Anyone who believes that people are made stronger by being cared for by government, by having less and less responsibility, has certainly been drinking the kool-aid.

Just look at children. The child who is brought up in a home where responsibility is expected from an early age and where discipline is brought to bear if that responsibility is not taken seriously grows into an adult who is capable of being a wife or husband, a mother or father, a good employer or employee and a good citizen.

The child brought up in a home where nothing is expected, no responsibility is handed out or required that child has a rough time accepting responsibility in all walks of life.

The results of the signing of the healthcare bill are beginning to show themselves. While Obama is running around the country, still trying to sell this to the citizens and extolling the virtues of his bill the real facts are beginning to be known.

He's telling everyone that as of the signing of the bill there would no longer be any restriction on existing conditions on children. They would be totally covered. Well someone forgot to put it in the bill. Pretty big mistake I would say. Of course most children were already covered under the SCHIP bill which was greatly expanded just last year.

Large businesses are coming out saying how much tis will cost them and how they will probably need to put their retirees on the government plan because of costs and it will preclude hiring because of the added costs.

We have angry people taking pot shots at politicians. The liberals have been blaming the Republicans because they haven't come out hard enough against the violence. Personally I believe some of it is being staged to use as a tool against the Tea Party groups. Today however, Eric Cantor, minority whip for the Republican party, announced his office was fired on. Cantor is now charging the liberals with using these events to flame the fire and saying, while it is too bad that this is happening, these things happen all the time to people involved in public life.

I believe this is just the beginning of the problems which we are going to see thanks to the Obama administration's targeted takeover of our country.

Tell me what you think...will things get better or worse.

Do you believe in the tooth fairy

If you believe in the tooth fairy you'll believe in this bill

This bill will put us into bankruptcy. I know there are people for the bill as well as people against the bill. Did you know that almost half of the 32 million people who will receive healthcare will receive it through Medicaid ? Medicaid is an expense to the states in which the people live and most of our states are almost bankrupt now.
Do you really believe that an additional 30 million people can be insured without costing the government money...do you believe it could save the government money?
Do you really believe that the government gives us rights? Our constitution says our rights come from God.
States cannot go into debt like the Federal Government and so if they are required to pay out millions or billions more for medical insurance they will have to cut services in other places.

I encourage everyone to look seriously at this bill and how it will affect you.
Did you know the IRS will be in charge of dertermining that everyone has purchased Insurance?

Did you know that there will be an additional 15,000 employees added to the IRS Ranks.

Did you know that your personal financial information will be shared with Health and Human services at the Federal level.

Did you know that within this bill there is the takeover of all student loans by the Federal government? That the government will determine who gets loans and who doesn't. It will then be in the position to determine what schools teach and to whom.

I know health care for everyone sounds like a good and a charitable thing but the government is not a charity and while the bible requires us to be charitable it is the individual not the government who is to fulfill charitable actions.

Just please look into this yourselves, don't believe me or anyone else but do your own research.

If you believe as I do that this is an unconstitutional bill

Then I want to draw your attention to this important petition that I recently signed:

"Repeal the Health Care Bill !!!"

http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/repealhealthcarebill/

I really think this is an important cause, and I'd like to encourage you to add your signature, too. It's free and takes just a few seconds of your time.

Thanks! Donna
