This advertisement is so unbelievable...I'm feeling a bit sick now.

Is this what the Obama Administration has come down to?

You have two cows...So many systems, So little time.

DEMOCRAT - You have two cows. Your neighbor has none. You feel guilty for being successful. Barbra Streisand sings for you.

REPUBLICAN - You have two cows. Your neighbor has none. So?

SOCIALIST - You have two cows. The government takes one and gives it to your neighbor. You form a cooperative and tell him how to manage his cow.

COMMUNIST - You have two cows. The government seizes both and provides you with milk. You wait in line for hours to get it. It is expensive and sour.

CAPITALISM, AMERICAN STYLE - You have two cows. You sell one, buy a bull, and build a herd of cows.

DEMOCRACY, AMERICAN STYLE - You have two cows. The government taxes you to the point you have to sell both to support a man in a foreign country who has only one cow, which was a gift from your government.

BUREAUCRACY, AMERICAN STYLE - You have two cows. The government takes them both, shoots one, milks the other, pays you for the milk, and then pours the milk down the drain.

AMERICAN CORPORATION - You have two cows. You sell one, lease it back to yourself, and do an IPO on the second one. You force the two cows to produce the milk of four cows. You are surprised when one cow drops dead. You spin an announcement to the analysts stating you have down-sized and are reducing expenses. Your stock goes up.

FRENCH CORPORATION - You have two cows. You go on strike because you want three cows. You go to lunch and drink wine. Life is good.

JAPANESE CORPORATION - You have two cows. You redesign them so they are one-tenth the size of an ordinary cow and produce twenty times the milk. They learn to travel on unbelievably crowded trains. Most are at the top of their class at cow school.

GERMAN CORPORATION - You have two cows. You engineer them so they are all blond, drink lots of beer, give excellent quality milk, and run a hundred miles an hour. Unfortunately, they also demand 13 weeks of vacation per year.

TALIBAN CORPORATION - You have all the cows in Afghanistan, which are two. You don't milk them because you cannot touch any creature's private parts. Then you kill them and claim a US bomb blew them up while they were in the hospital.

IRAQI CORPORATION - You have two cows. They go into hiding. They send radio tapes of their mooing.

FLORIDA CORPORATION - You have a black cow and a brown cow. Everyone votes for the best looking one. Some of the people who like the brown one best vote for the black one. Some people vote for both. Some people vote for neither. Some people can't figure out how to vote at all. Finally, a bunch of guys from out-of-state tell you which is the best looking cow.

CALIFORNIA CORPORATION - You have a cow and a bull. The bull is depressed. It has spent its life living a lie. It goes away for two weeks. It comes back after a taxpayer-paid sex-change operation. You now have two cows. One makes milk; the other doesn't. You try to sell the transgender cow. Its lawyer sues you for discrimination. You lose in court. You sell the milk-generating cow to pay the damages. You now have one rich, transgender, non-milk-producing cow. You change your business to beef. PETA pickets your farm. Jesse Jackson makes a speech in your driveway. Cruz Bustamante calls for higher farm taxes to help "working cows". Hillary Clinton calls for the nationalization of 1/7 of your farm "for the children". Gray Davis signs a law giving your farm to Mexico. The L.A. Times quotes five anonymous cows claiming you groped their teats. You declare bankruptcy and shut down all operations. The cow starves to death. The L.A. Times analysis shows your business failure is Bush's fault. You then create a clever cow cartoon image called 'Cowkimon' and market it worldwide.

ITALIAN CAPITALISM You have two cows, but you don't know where they are. You decide to have lunch.

RUSSIAN CAPITALISM You have two cows. You count them and learn you have five cows. You count them again and learn you have 42 cows. You count them again and learn you have 2 cows. You stop counting cows and open another bottle of vodka.

SWISS CAPITALISM You have 5000 cows. None of them belong to you. You charge the owners for storing them.

CHINESE CAPITALISM You have two cows. You have 300 people milking them. You claim that you have full employment, and high bovine productivity. You arrest the newsman who reported the real situation.

INDIAN CAPITALISM You have two cows. You worship them.

BRITISH CAPITALISM You have two cows. Both are mad.

IRAQI CAPITALISM Everyone thinks you have lots of cows. You tell them that you have none. No-one believes you, so they bomb the shit out of you and invade your country. You still have no cows, but at least now you are part of a Democracy.

AUSTRALIAN CAPITALISM You have two cows. You invite 200 mates over for a barbie.

NEW ZEALAND CAPITALISM You have two cows. The one on the left looks very attractive

SURREALISM You have two giraffes. The government requires you to take harmonica lessons.

It's Friday the 13th. Why the Superstition?

This all started back with the Last Supper and other cultures added their spin.

Here's the story:

The Superstition Behind Friday the 13th: It's strange how society has come to accept "superstition" so plainly and unquestioning. Go to every hotel in the States and there is almost never a floor with the number 13 in it. However, if you should venture to a hotel in Italy, you will indeed find that 13 is not skipped over. In fact, a gold charm of the number is given to Italian infants to ensure good luck and prosperity in their developing life. Why then, is there such suspicion surrounding 13?

Furthermore, ever wonder what makes Friday the 13th so "evil"? (Note: Friday the 13th was considered a day of bad luck and evil long before the movies came out!) There are various theories surrounding 13.

Since Christianity has had a extremely large influence on all societies as a whole, we shall look there first. At the "Final Supper" or "Last Supper" (whoever you chose to term it) there were 13 guests. Some believe Jesus to be the 13th at feast, occurring just before he was Crucified. This is a largely debatable theory, however. How does one know where to start counting? Many chose to go by the painting "The Last Supper," forgetting that this is an artist's interpretation of an event he did not attend. The painting depicts the disciples and Jesus at a table, but evidence suggests that the last supper was not conducted at a table. Rather the participants were seated on the ground where it was cooler. (The climate in Israel, at that time, suggests they would have stayed on the ground to keep cool.) Furthermore, where to start counting (when assuming the picture is accurate)? If one started with Judas, Jesus became the 13th guest. Conversely, if the count began at Jesus, it was indeed Judas who was 13. Both options would contribute to the mystique surrounding 13: Jesus, for he was killed soon after the feast, Judas for he was the betrayer of Jesus. On an additional, though little proven, note, some have claimed to be a 13th tribe of Israel. The bible proclaims only 12, and a very high percentage of Christians and Jews deny that a 13th tribe even exist. However, a few recognize that a group had, falsely, identified themselves as a 13th tribe. The members of the "13th tribe" were labeled as "witches" and "sorcerers," an evil group who determine to destroy followers of God.

Plainly, this does not lend any favor to 13, and adds more propaganda against Witchcraft. The fact that so many haven't even heard of this 13th Tribe makes the probability of the labeling of "Witches" being accurate extremely low. (Furthermore, the low probability simply further illustrates the false propaganda Christian organizations are willing to put forth in order to label Witchcraft as evil.) Friday the 13th comes into play when it is observed that Jesus was Crucified on a Friday.

Obviously, should one chose to accept this theory, the day associated with the death of the Savior would lend to the supposed bad luck which occupies this particular date. It is said, also, that it was a Friday when Adam and Eve ate the fruit. Furthermore, Friday used to be the 6th day of the week, it was not until more recent times that it became the 5th day. 6, being the number biblically associated with man, relates to the Devil. 3 is the number of the Holy Trinity, therefore with 6 being the number of man, 666 was denoted as the number of the Beast. (A Trinity of Six, signifying the God of Man, Satan) One can hardly find this connection to Satan adding to the "good name" of Friday the 13th.



Also, any month with a Friday the 13th must begin with a Sunday the 1st. Curiosity leads one to ask if a significance lies in the observation that only months that begin with the day God decided to rest (Sunday), after "creating the world," yield a day of such supposed demonic evil and misfortune. To the Norse Friday was the luckiest day of the week, being named after Freya, one of their Deities. Also named after Venus, in Rome and France.

For Mohammedans, Friday after sunset is also the Sabbath. The implications connecting Darkness, and hence Sunset (the transition from light to dark), and Evil would indeed lend to the idea of misfortune which surrounds Friday the 13th, to those who find the Muslim path as evil and heathen. Mohammedans also say that Adam was created on a Friday. It can be seen that it is largely within the Christian ranks that Friday takes on a significant connotation of evil when teamed with the 13th.

To continue on, perhaps extending a bit further in the past than Christian influence, a mythological occurrence presents:

At the banquet in Valhalla, of which there were 12 guests, Loki, God of Deceit, intruded, becoming the uninvited 13th guest. In Norse mythology, Balder was the god of light and beauty. The most beloved of the gods, he was the son of Odin and Frigg and the husband of Nanna, goddess of the Moon. Balder was killed by Loki's treachery during the proceedings. Through Loki's interference, the return of Balder, from the possession of Hel, was an impossible task. To return Balder, Hel demanded that all living things beg for the god's return. All respond except a giantess, Thokk (Loki in disguise), whose refusal to weep forces Balder to remain in Hel's domain. There are 13 members which make up a Wicca/Pagan Coven to fully cast the Circle. 13 was sacred because it represented the amount of lunar months in year (Thirteen Full Moons).




It has also been speculated that 13 was maximum # of people that could fit comfortably in a traditional Circle with a 9 foot diameter. 6 male-female couples and a priest or priestess. Not so surprising is the understanding that 13, being a sacred number to most Pagan traditions, was therefore considered evil by early Christians. It took very little for the religious leaders to invent a dogma to counter the Pagans sacred number.

The question can be posed: If the mystique surrounding 13 is not invented dogma, why then do hotels hold rooms labeled #666? Why is this number not also omitted? For a superstition to spread so far it must be distributed through a largely influential source, such as Christianity. Notice again, 13 is still considered good luck in Italy, home of the Roman Catholic church, which separated from the rest of Christianity due to conflicting political and theological disagreements.

Moreover, Friday was considered sacred by both Norse traditions and Muslims, both which are considered enemies to Christianity. Instituting Friday the 13th as a day of evil worked to prevent losing followers to either path, utilizing fear as a binding weapon. A recent article shows that a new superstition has been 'invented' involving the number 13. Now some serial killers has been bunched under the 13 letter group, and it goes something like this: Jack the Ripper- 13 letters John Wayne Gacy- 13 letters Charles Manson- 13 letters Jeffrey Dahmer- 13 letters Theodore ( Ted ) Bundy- 13 letters

This latest bad press is bound to give the self-respecting normal 13s in the world an even worse time of it. From here on, it can be seen how the "bad luck" attributed to Friday the 13th comes from peoples' assumption that the date carries evil in it's wake. Therefore, anything that goes wrong on the 13th is assumed to be the effect of some supernatural evil.

The luck or unluckiness of any given number resides solely in the mind of the person, and within the realm of the boogie man. All the superstitions built up around Friday the 13th were political maneuvers, largely on the part of Christian religious leaders (but most definitely not the only offenders), to divert their followers minds from other spiritual paths.

They Just Want Their Ice Cream.

We are worried about "the cow" when it is all about the "Ice Cream".

A 3rd Grade Teacher wrote this:

The most eye-opening civics lesson I ever had was while teaching third grade this year.

The presidential election was heating up and some of the children showed an interest.

I decided we would have an election for a class president. We would choose our nominees.

They would make a campaign speech and the class would vote. To simplify the process,
candidates were nominated by other class members.

We discussed what kinds of characteristics these students should have. We got many
nominations and from those, Jamie and Olivia were picked to run for the top spot.

The class had done a great job in their selections. Both candidates were good kids.
I thought Jamie might have an advantage because he got lots of parental support.
I had never seen Olivia's mother.

The day arrived when they were to make their speeches, Jamie went first.
He had specific ideas about how to make our class a better place.
He ended by promising to do his very best. Every one applauded.

He sat down and Olivia came to the podium.

Olivia's speech was concise. She said, "If you will vote for me, I will give you ice cream."

She sat down.

The class went wild. "Yes! Yes! We want ice cream."

She surely would say more. She did not have to. A discussion followed.

How did she plan to pay for the ice cream? She wasn't sure.

Would her parents buy it or would the class pay for it. She didn't know.
The class really didn't care. All they were thinking about was ice cream.

Jamie was forgotten. Olivia won by a land slide!

Every time Barack Obama opened his mouth when campaigning he offered ice cream and fifty-two
percent of the people reacted like a nine year old would. They just want their ice cream.

The other forty-eight percent know they're going to have to feed the cow and clean up the mess...

Just like we'll have to after this pork barrel "stimulus" package goes through.

Please cut the crap. No money for Acorn. Period!

.

Nancy Pelosi...Huh?

500 Million? Isn't anyone working in America?

Considering there's only approx. 305 Million legal citizens, perhaps the rest are illegal.

Just how dumb is this broad anyway?

Obama and his Posse...

What is Hamas?

Cowards, that's what they are. Hiding behind masks. Hiding behind women. Hiding behind children. Hiding in hospitals and schools. And in my opinion worst of all, Hiding behind their "Religion of Peace".

They've started a war they have no chance of winning. Theirs is a cult of death.

No saying to them "Can't we all just get along?". There is no getting along with Radical Islam. Their only goal is the propagation of their hideous faith. A faith that teaches that if you aren't one of them, you'll either be killed or enslaved.

Freedom...

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.
We can't pass it to our children from our bloodstream.
It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.

...Ronald Reagan.

Should Islam be regarded as a religious terrorist enabeler?

Many things are going to be happening in the Mid-East in the following weeks.

Are we to ignore the fact that Israel is coming under attack not only from the Islamofacists, but also from the American Media? We are seeing images every day on TV that show the damage Israel is putting forth on the criminals of Hamas. But where were the same images shown on our televisions of the over 6,000 rockets fired into Israel in the past few years?

Where was Katie Couric on those?

How about Chris Matthews? Maybe he was still excited from the tingling feeling he had down his legs when he heard Barack Obama speak.

Keith Oblowmann? Another apologizer for the Islamists. After all "We just don't understand"! What's to understand about honor killings? What's to understand about stoning women for the simple reason that they've talked to a man who wasn't their husband? Can any of you explain how this is acceptable?

On to the Gaza conflict.

Is Israel starving and denying the "Palestinians" food, water, power and medical treatment? I think not. The Israelis have not just allowed, but insisted upon relief supplies be transported to the Gaza zone. These efforts have repeatedly come under fire from the criminal Hamas organization. Hamas and their minions have built tunnels to supposedly to get their supplies for living. You know, stuff we take for granted in America. Instead they transported weapons through those same tunnels. Hell, they got enough guns and missiles through the tunnels, but couldn't get food and meds? It's all a bunch of shit. No one wanted the land where Israel now stands before they got there. The so-called "Palestinians" just wandered around. In fact there was never a country called "Palestine". It was considered a region, much like how we call the Sahara Desert a region. Only when the Jewish people were able to conceive and build a state were any of the "Palestinians" interested in that plot of land. The Israelis made that once desolate area bloom with life. Now that there was something there worth having, the nomads wanted back in. Yeah guys, you want it when it's good but no interest when you were there the 1st time. Bye Bye.

What kind of person hides and fires their weapons from places where children are at school?
A cowardly "Hamas murderer" does that.

What sort of soldier stores their missiles in hospitals?
No honorable military person would do that, but Hamas does

Go for your (what was it, 72 virgins) guys. I can't help you. But for God's sake, just leave us alone. We don't need, want or desire your way of life. In America, we have people who don't want this crap here. Just keep it there. You guys obviously just can't get away from it.

Please check out the slide show in the following link. There are many things that are happening in Europe that are making their way to our shores.

This is not a racist attack on Muslims. This is a wake-up call to America that needs to be said.

We deserve our way of life. We should not go quietly toward a world of multi-culturalism. Our way of life should be upheld. Nothing is perfect, but theirs is not the way only because for them it's the only way.

America's Constitution says we all have the right to live our lives as we see fit, as long as our lives do not infringe upon our fellow citizens.

Please look at this. You might not agree on every point, but there are some "thinking points" here instead of "talking points" that liberal progressives like to bamboozle us with.

There's "Global Warming" and then there's "Man Made Global Warming". What's the difference?

There's "Global Warming" and then there's "Man Made Global Warming".

Two different things. The earth goes through cycles just like humans do. Humans change with age and the Earth changes due to its own internal processes and from solar activity. To say that man is the cause is the epitome of arrogance. We are no more able to control the Earth and it's weather than we can control what the next lottery numbers are going to be.

Earth has been hot. Earth has been cold. In the grand scheme of things the Earth has thrived when it's warmer. More types of plants and animals develop. It's the "Man Made Global Warming" bullshit that's shown as being a lie.

More and more scientists are coming forward and saying the data just doesn't add up. The scientists stayed silent until now because if they didn't go along this the scam, they'd be out of jobs, out of their grant money and out of the business due to the overwhelming pressure the scammers like Gore are putting on our places of higher learning.

Here are some real Scientific facts on Co2:

1. Carbon dioxide is not the major greenhouse gas (water vapor is)

2. Carbon dioxide accounts for less than ten percent of the greenhouse effect, as carbon dioxide's ability to absorb heat is quite limited.

3. Only about 0.03 percent of the Earth's atmosphere consists of carbon dioxide (nitrogen, oxygen, and argon constitute about 78 percent, 20 percent, and 0.93 percent of the atmosphere, respectively).

4. The sun, not a gas, is primarily to "blame" for global warming -- and plays a very key role in global temperature variations as well.

5. Most of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere does not come from the burning of fossil fuels. Only about 14 percent of it does.

6. Human activities contribute slightly to greenhouse gas concentrations through farming, manufacturing, power generation, and transportation. However, these emissions are so dwarfed in comparison to emissions from natural sources we can do nothing about, that even the most costly efforts to limit human emissions would have a very small - perhaps undetectable - effect on global climate.

This chart explains the amount of man made (produced) elements contributing to our atmosphere. The green areas show it and the numbers are the percentage of each element.



Big Brother Al Gore wants to control how you live, work and spend your free time.

Don't let this scam become any worse than it has.

Remember, Man Made Global Warming/Climate Change is a lie and a scam!

ps: If you want to waste money on the so-called "Carbon Credit" scam, I wish you'd send your money to the USO or the Toys for Tots programs. That way at least the money won't be going into the pockets of scam-artists like Gore, but to a genuine charity.

What does socialism bring us? Obama knows the answer and you won't like it!

I used to assume that most Americans understand socialism is an evil, immoral system of economics and government.

But then I'll have a conversation with a younger person who has been taught throughout their life that only the government can spread wealth fairly or that market economics is inherently corrupt.

So, let’s ask the real question: "What does socialism bring us?"

Here are a few things you might like to think about:

-Do you believe in private property?
-How would you feel if someone took yours?
-Where has socialism ever succeeded?
-What does the government do well?
-What does the Bible have to say about economics?
-What did America's founders have to say about economics?
-Is socialism constitutional?

If you answer these questions honestly, you’ll see that socialism is an unmitigated disaster.

Most people believe in private property – especially their own.

Most people don't like having their things stolen. In fact, it's government's job to protect you from theft, not to be the thief.

Most people will be unable to point to a single successful socialist experiment – unless they choose some relatively new Western nation with a "mixed economy." Those include Canada, formerly Great Britain, France and other European countries. Those countries are more aptly described as “Social Democracies” You might even say that America fits this category. It's important to recognize that mere survival as a nation over a period of time does not make for a successful experiment. Socialism, for instance, aims to eliminate or reduce poverty. In none of these nations has poverty been eliminated or reduced as a result of socialist experiments.

Most people recognize that government is necessary, but inefficient. What they might not recognize is that it is also poses the greatest threat to freedom. The more power it has, the less freedom individual citizens have. Government is a necessary evil – something that should be tolerated as a limited nuisance, not counted on for your basic needs.

Most people don't realize the Bible countenances private property. It holds it up as honorable – as long as it does not become a diversion from God, as long as it does not become man's god.

Most people apparently forget what our founders had to say about property. They forget that our Constitution expressly limits the power of the federal government. You could say constitutionally limited government is the opposite of socialism.

It's going to be a painful awakening when Americans see how the country will be under the new Obama administration.

-Wait until you see how expensive "free" health care really is.
-Wait until you see how little wealth you have after they spread it around.
-Wait until you see what it's like to have to ask a government bureaucrat for permission to do things you once took for granted.

That's what socialism brings us. People have to see it for themselves.

They have to experience the misery and the control the government will exert over their lives.

They have to see it with their own eyes to believe it.

Maybe then, we will have a chance to get America back on track.

Maybe then, we will have enough courage and desire to fight to regain what we have lost.

Maybe then, our experiences will protect us, for awhile, from the freedom-stealers.

Maybe then, we will have enough sense to educate our young people as to the inherent evils of socialism – so they won't be fooled, again.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Have a great day and be thankful we live in America.

We just had an election. Whatever side you were on doesn't matter now. Now it's time to make sure our country gets back to where it should be.

You know, in The United States we have a unique situation that's never before been done in history.
America is able to have a change in power, by the People through election, without resorting to violence and military force.

Think about it. We've never had a military coup, a dictatorship or an outright seizure of the government by any outside force. That's unique in the history of the world.

And that's something we all should be grateful for!
