You need to make yourself comfortable, gather your spouse and kids around, sit down and listen to every last word this man has to say. This message is so important to America right now that I am going to post it on all of my blogs.
I talk to people from all around the country every day. I have been listening to the rumble. The angry tempo of America is growing. A massive explosion in our country looms, as if the tinder is dry, the kindling is dry, and the powder is volatile.
We need to act now, before we step into anarchy.

HEALTH CARE ISSUE EXPLODES
Angry Americans have been shouting down Congressional representatives at town hall meetings across the country, fueling charges of partisanship; the Administration is running ads accusing the Republicans of staging “angry mob” protests.
COMMENTS:
This Government Health Care Plan is not a Republican vs. Democrat issue. It is an American vs. Un-American issue. It is about the very basic foundations upon which this country was founded. It is about liberty and freedom. And, it’s about time Americans got damned good and angry.

WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE?
Regis Philbin may be bringing the once popular prime time TV show back to its former glory. He’ll be hosting 11 shows starting Sunday.
COMMENTS:
Geithner and Obama will be waiting just off-stage with broad smiles to personally congratulate the winners and collect the income tax revenues.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. I heard that federal tax revenues are way down. Doesn’t that mean that they have to raise taxes? (Cassie – Silver City, NV)
A. Tax revenues are down because people are out of work and not spending money. The expenses are up due to the need to pay unemployment and all of the spending that Congress has been doing. The problem is that, when you raise taxes, people have less money to spend, which means that businesses have less income and must lay off more people in order to keep from losing money. So, it is possible, even probable, that when they raise taxes, their revenues will go down.
Q. Why don’t we have more nuclear energy plants, like other countries do? (Bruce – Palo Cedro, CA)
A. Big oil and the environmentalists are against nuclear energy. Big oil wants to make the money and the environmentalists like living in the dark.
Q. If God is good, then why did God make flies? (Krissie – Portsmouth, VA)
A. To make the wind blow. There are also “Fly-By-Nights” who run the government. Some people fish for flies, and they are called fly fishermen. There are lots of flies around Burney, which is why so many fly fishermen visit there in the summer.

MIDDLE-CLASS TAX INCREASES: About Face-Twice
The top three Treasury officials, on different weekend television shows, danced and skirted around the direct question of whether or not we are going to have middle-class tax increases, despite Obama’s assurances that we would not. Our pal, tax-cheat Tim Geithner, appearing on Stephanopolos, answered the question by saying that we are spending a lot of money and “We’re going to have to make some hard choices.” Obama came out Monday and said there would be no tax increases for the middle class, but by now the damage was done and polls show that most Americans don’t trust him anymore.
COMMENTS:
I can answer that with nine (9) fingers tied behind my back! And they want to add insult to injury by passing a $1.5 trillion Government-run health boondoggle on top of it?
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Why are they picking on Sotomayor? (Jessie – Rawlins, WY)
A. “They” are predominantly Republicans who have an axe to grind. I wouldn’t vote for her myself, but it’s a liberal judge replacing a liberal judge, so I think the battle really belongs in health care and cap and trade. You can only holler vile language so long before people stop listening to you.
Q. What’s this about Tennessee State Senator Paul Stanley resigning after he got caught having an affair with a 22-year-old intern? (Fran – Dayton, NV)
A. It’s all a matter of mixed-up priorities. Instead of screwing the intern, he should have been screwing the public, like the rest of the politicians. It’s considered to be unethical when you screw an intern.
Q. Why did they run out of money already for the “Cash for Clunkers” program that was supposed to last four months? (Felipe – Port Arthur, TX)
A. Because, like all of the other programs the current administration started, they made a “miscalculation.” Logically, they need to spend $100,000 for new calculators for Congress and the White House… That would be money well spent. Makes you wonder how big their “miscalculation” is going to be for the Government Health Plan, doesn’t it?

TEXANS ARE TRUE PATRIOTS AND ALWAYS TELL IT LIKE IT IS
From the Hermit:
This is a special post. It contains a message that is vital for us to read every day and to contemplate while our President and Congress take a brief hiatus from all of the damage they are doing to our country. It's a message well-worth sending on and, due to the tremendous growth of this new blog, I decided to post it here before posting it on "TODAY'S BEST EMAIL."
As one Texan put it well...
Dr. Donald May delivered this message from the courthouse steps in Lubbock. He electrified the audience like I haven't seen in a long time. His delivery was masterful. I am sorry you could not see him in action. Anyway, I thought you might enjoy his words.
"This is A Time For Courage" - April 15, 2009 - 11:49 pm
"We are gathered here today on the plains of West Texas in common purpose. We are here to remind our government that this is our country. We the People are still in charge, and our government is still our servant and not our master. Our Nation's founding document is The Declaration of Independence. It tells us that our rights come from God and NOT from a small group of Elite men and women.
Our Constitution starts with the words "We the People." Our Constitution was written for ordinary Americans like you and me. Our Constitution protects us from our government and from the politicians.
Our President has complained that our Constitution gives ordinary people too much protection. He has ridiculed us for the high value we place on our Bibles, our guns, our personal property, and our Liberty. He tells us we do not deserve to keep the money we have earned. We are told freedom has not worked. Personal responsibility, free enterprise, and Liberty have not been effective. Our government will now make more of our decisions for us.
Other than our military, I can think of not one government agency I have ever found to be helpful. And speaking of our military, how about those Navy Seals blowing the heads off those three terrorist pirates? Don't you just wish our entire government would function with such efficiency, professionalism, and courage?
We watch in disbelief as our beloved United States is weakened economically, militarily, and morally by a
radical President and his eager accomplices. What has taken generations to build is systematically destroyed and replaced with the same Socialist Evil that brought poverty, destruction, and despair to untold hundreds of millions.
The problems we face today have occurred because we have not defended our Nation from Socialism. For too long we have allowed the wrong people to make the worst possible decisions.
The Bible warns us of class hatred. The radical leadership of our government daily fans the evil flames of class envy. Our European and Canadian friends beg us to NOT make the same Socialist mistakes they did.
The President of the European20 Union warned our President that his Socialist economic plans are taking the World down the 'road to Hell.' The path to power for Socialists includes taking God and guns from the
citizens. Without spiritual and physical protection, people cannot defend themselves and their Liberty. They soon become slaves.
We are angered that... our President apologizes for the exceptionalism and heroism of the United States of America. We are deeply troubled that he told others the United States is not a Christian nation. We are angered that... we have been called cowards and racistsbbecause we oppose Socialism. Socialism is not racial. Socialism is an equal opportunity destroyer.
We are angered that... a recent Department of Homeland Security report has singled out our military men and women who are returning home as being radical threats. The report also characterizes you and me as
right-wing extremists and radicals because we favor smaller government and lower taxes. You and I are average citizens who believe just like most of our fellow Americans. We want our government to leave us
alone and to keep its hands off our money, our religion, or guns, our private property, and our lives.
We demand that our government STOP spending money it does not have; STOP confiscating our money and private property; STOP printing money; STOP subsidizing Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the other failed financial institutions and companies.
Mr. President, stop appointing tax cheats to positions of power and influence. Mr. President, secure our borders. Mr. President, do NOT divert money from our missile defense, F-22 Raptors, and other vital military equipment. This gives encouragement, aid, and comfort to our enemies. Protecting us is your
number one job.
Mr. President, do NOT give voting rights to millions of illegal aliens and felons. You have no more right to create new voters for your benefit than you do to use our money to buy the 2010 and 2012 elections..
We gather peacefully here today because there is a growing concern for what our government is doing to us and to our future. We fear for the very survival of our Republic. Yet there is much to make us hopeful and to fill our hearts with optimism and courage. This is still OUR country! The Constitution of the United States belongs to We the People. Our Constitution still protects us from our government.
Call every possible elected official, including our President, Vice President, and the Speaker of the House. Demand that they STOP stealing our money and giving it to ACORN and their other political supporters in
order to buy votes. Call Senators Cornyn and Hutchison, and Representative Neugebauer. Thank them. Urge them to do much more. Remind them now is a time for action and not for campaigning.
Volunteer to work on our 2010 Census. Confront ACORN. Keep our Census honest. We must NOT allow our President to take control of our Census for his political advantage.
We must replace as much of our Far Left Congress as possible in 2010. Get involved. Do NOT let the ACORN control our 2010 Election.
Talk with someone every day who does not understand our nation's history and our great heritage. Tell them why the United States is a good and prosperous nation. It still remains that brightly lit city on the hill. It still is the best hope for all mankind. Talk with all of the young people you can find. They are our future. Many do not understand what they have and that their future is being destroyed.
Encourage your elected State officials to pass legislation that will protect us from our Federal government. This is a time for strong peaceful action. Let us PRAY that We the People can quickly return our government to its Constitutional responsibilities. Our President and Congress were elected to be our servants and NOT our masters.
May God help our President and Congress to quickly realize the error of their ways and stop their reckless and unwarranted spending, cut our taxes, and reduce the size of our Federal bureaucracy. If they do not, may God grant us the courage and determination to vote them out of power next year.
May God richly bless and protect each of you, and our Constitution, as together we pursue Liberty!"

MASSSSSIVE GOVERNMENT TAKEAWAYS LOOM
You’ve heard all of the headlines:
You’re too fat
Cell phones cause traffic accidents
Guns kill innocent civilians
The Government can provide better Health Care
All of these issues will be firmly in control of the government by December 31, 2009. Thereafter, you won’t have to worry about it, because you’re not going to have any more choices.
COMMENTS:
Welcome to fascism.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. You’re just upset. You can’t really mean that nasty word, “fascism.” (Caroline – Kearney, NE)
A. I’d be less than honest if I dismissed the word “fascism” from the list of probabilities.
Q. Given that we currently have the best health care in the world, and that it’s just not reaching enough people, why don’t they just cap costs, get more providers into the system, cap malpractice damages, and then look for better ways to ensure more people are covered? (Smitty – Kanab, UT)
A. This isn't really about Health Care. The government wants more control over your choices.
Q. How can we get control of our lives back from this government? (Jenny – Gardnerville, NV)
A. You can’t get it by groveling. Maybe, if you’d turn off your headphones long enough to listen to what’s really happening in our country, you’d have a chance.

CONGRESS TO PASS BILL FOR TRIAL LAWYERS TAX BREAK
The Democratic controlled Congress is about to pass legislation that will provide the nation’s trial lawyers well over $1 billion in tax breaks per year. The group is represented by a PAC, (Political Action Committee), which raised almost that much in political campaign donations last year, 96% of which went to Democratic candidates and the rest to Republicans who are screaming charges of “political payback at the taxpayer’s expense.”
COMMENTS:
Those Republicans are such whiners. The tax breaks will incentivize more people to become trial lawyers, and that will lead to more lawsuits. More lawsuits will mean more Court clerks, judges and defense attorneys will need to be employed, investigators hired, and news reporters required to cover the juicy details. This is economic stimulus at its best, the way the stimulus program is really intended to work; and the manner in which it is being accomplished really shows how modern Washington and our elected representatives think, act and legislate.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Why do we keep spending so much money on the Space Station and Space Shuttles? (Bernie – Lodi, CA)
A. A lot of modern day technology that we take for granted was created as a result of and in conjunction with the space programs. Also, Congress lives in outer space and they like to have occasional visitors.
Q. We did Congress put an August 1st deadline on passing the Health Care Bill in the first place? (Charlotte – Williamsburg, WV)
A. They didn’t. They never wanted it done before the summer recess. Neither did the President. Just ask Harry Reid. (My two bits sez he doesn’t dare show his face back in Nevada during the summer recess. He doesn’t want to hear what they have to say about how he is doing his job.)
Q. Why are they talking about ACORN being the ones to “counsel” old people in their twilight years for the new Government Health Ministry? (Bret – Farson, WY)
A. All people, especially the elderly, need guidance and instruction, and they need to come to grips with the fact that their guns and religion aren’t going to do them any good after they get to the crematory.

HOUSE DEMOCRATS PUSH COMPROMISE GOVERNMENT HEALTH BILL
Despite telling the country that there is no way they will have a Health Bill before Summer Recess, House Democrats pushed a compromise health overhaul yesterday, actively seeking success on President Obama's top domestic priority before the recess begins.
"We've got to pass the bill. Not only do we have to, but we're going to," said Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid told reporters during the day that August deadlines were a product of the media, rather than lawmakers or the White House.
COMMENTS:
The spin, the lies, the deception that have become a daily product of Washington have convinced America that we can’t afford to believe one damned word any of those two-faced, numbskull notwits has to say.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. What do you think about Obama having a beer with Crowley and Gates? (Arland – Willard, UT)
A. The only reason Obama decided to have the beer yesterday is because the tax on beer is going up tomorrow.
Q. Why did Obama have a Samuel Adams Light beer instead of a Corona? (Alicia – Yuma, AZ)
A. Because he’s allergic to salt and lime.
Q. I hear they finally have a vaccine against swine flu. Who will be the first ones to get the shots? (Dawna – Lake Oswego, NY)
A. You probably think I’m kidding when I say this. I always tell the truth. Really. The President, Vice President and Members of Congress are consistently at the top of the list when it comes to preventive medicine. Don’t you wish you had that health plan?

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid told reporters during the day that August deadlines were a product of the media, rather than lawmakers or the White House.
COMMENTS:
The spin, the lies, the deception that have become a daily product of Washington have convinced America that we can’t afford to believe one damned word any of those two-faced, numbskull notwits has to say.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. What do you think about Obama having a beer with Crowley and Gates? (Arland – Willard, UT)
A. The only reason Obama decided to have the beer yesterday is because the tax on beer is going up tomorrow.
Q. Why did Obama have a Samuel Adams Light beer instead of a Corona? (Alicia – Yuma, AZ)
A. Because he’s allergic to salt and lime.
Q. I hear they finally have a vaccine against swine flu. Who will be the first ones to get the shots? (Dawna – Lake Oswego, NY)
A. You probably think I’m kidding when I say this. I always tell the truth. Really. The President, Vice President and Members of Congress are consistently at the top of the list when it comes to preventive medicine. Don’t you wish you had that health plan?

HOME-GROWN TERRORISM REARS ITS UGLY HEAD
Seven men have been arrested in South Carolina in connection with a plot to conduct terrorist activities abroad and, perhaps, in the United States. At least one of those arrested has evidently taken terrorist training in Afghanistan and Pakistan. The group had accumulated a significant amount of firearms and explosives, according to news reports.
COMMENTS:
See the blog post of July 25th. My guess is that this is only the tip of the iceberg. I have reason to believe that dozens of similar “cells” already exist in the United States, and that the odds of such a “cell” being within 100 miles of where you live are about 80%. We need to be aware of the “enemy within,” and to be constantly aware of the possibility of such activities going on right under our noses. If we see unusual activities, we need to promptly report them to law enforcement officials. These activities underscore the real need for American citizens to have the right to bear arms.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. I heard something on the news about there being a move on to get rid of hot dogs. Can that be true? (Cathi – Rochester, MN)
A. Yes. Due to global warming, the ASPCA is recommending that you air condition your dog house or that you allow your dog to camp out in your refrigerator next to your husband. Also, the Cancer Project, a non-profit group, is suing to demand that warning labels be placed on hot dogs, bacon, and other processed meats to the effect that eating them increases your risk of cancer. Let’s see, now…. Back in the cave days, they ate their meat raw and unprocessed and people lived to be in their 30’s. Today, we eat processed meats and live into our 80’s. Sure sounds to me like they are on to something.
Q. They were going to have the Government Health Care Plan passed by Friday, then decided to wait until September, and now they’re on a Chinese fire drill to get it done by Friday again. Why the rush? (Doyle – Fairfax, VA)
A. Whenever there’s a huge amount of pressure to rush something through, you can safely bet your last dollar that Congress is up to no good. That seems to be the case, because the orders have been given to get it passed by Friday…”or else.” Nancy Pelosi has issued orders to the House Post Office and the Congressional Printing Office that representatives cannot mail any literature to their constituents that talks about the details of the bills. Up here on the mountain, we call that "illegal censorship." Bend over and grab the Vaseline.
Q. Will Michael Vick actually be allowed to play football again? (Amy – Santa Maria, CA)
A. Yeah, it looks as if professional football is going to the dogs.

TWO SENATORS KNEW THEY WERE GETTING UNETHICAL LOAN DEALS
Democratic U.S. Senators Kent Conrad and Chris Dodd were told up front that they were getting “VIP” mortgage discounts from Countrywide Financial, according to Robert Feinberg, the official who handled their loans. Countrywide went on to lose billions of dollars in loans to poorly qualified and money-strapped borrowers and allegations surfaced that Dodd and Conrad had benefited from loan deals that gave them favorable rates, discounts and loan fees. Dodd heads the Senate Banking Committee.

TESTING AT 96 OREGON SEWAGE PLANTS SHOWS ILLEGAL DRUGS
Last year, researchers at Oregon State University, the University of Washington and McGill University took one-day samples from 96 Oregon sewage treatment plants that volunteered to participate. Cocaine showed up in 80% of the plants tested. There were easily detectable levels of meth and ecstasy in almost all systems tested.
COMMENTS:
The theory is that the drugs got passed through urine into toilets and then into the system, which means that a relatively high number of Oregonians use the illegal drugs. I can’t help but wonder how their numbers would compare to results of similar testing in Washington, D.C. Some of the things those lawmakers are coming up with are beyond wacko.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. My husband suffered from some unexplained spell, where he passed out and collapsed. At first, we thought it was a stroke, but that has been ruled out. Now, he has to go through a battery of tests and see the cardiologist next week. Someone told me it’s just all a game to get money out of the insurance companies? (Anne – Ogden, UT)
A. Well, the good news is that you're not in Canada where, at his age, they might not even let him see a cardiologist. The more I read and see about this proposed health care plan reform, the more I am against it. Why do we want to tamper with the best health care in the world? Yes, we need to cover more people, but we also need more doctors and nurses. Yes, costs are rising, and so are malpractice awards. I think we're going about trying to "fix" things the wrong way. We need incentives for people to go to med school and we need caps on malpractice damages and we need to allow Canada to compete in our drug market to drive prices down to reality. Those are the things we need to start with while we debate the remaining issues.
Q. Did anyone every get the lowdown on that flight of the White House’s 747 around New York City? (Blanche – Brownsville, TX)
A. The so-called flight that supposedly scared the hell out of New Yorkers and made national headlines for days never actually occurred. It was simply a matter of mass hysteria and has been categorized by the Air Force Project Blue Book as an “Unidentified Flying Object.”
Q. Whatever happened to Pee-wee Herman? (Al – Hoboken, NJ)
A. I heard that, after serving jail-time he changed his name and became a “helping hand” at the Mustang Ranch.

CITY MANAGER LOSES JOB OVER WIFE’S OCCUPATION
Fort Meyers Beach, Fl fired its manager after learning he is married to an adult video actress. The town council voted to terminate the contract of its manager, Scott Janke, and then held a meeting Wednesday night to explain its actions to town residents. The town council says her profession brings an inappropriate and negative image to a place that prides itself on being family-friendly.
COMMENTS:

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. I don’t know why, but I have this persistent feeling that this isn’t the same country it once was. (Darla – Ketchum, ID)
A. It’s not. It has been drastically changed in the past 20 years, most significantly in the last six months. We’ve come to expect and accept crime and corruption in politics, our fundamental social structure and its mores have been eroded, and we’ve seen an enormous transfer of power from the people to the White House. It is indeed a new country, and I for one do not like it one damned bit.
Q. I understand there was a big scare in India that the solar eclipse would be the end of the world. Obviously, it didn’t happen, so what do they have to say about that? (Marla – Newport News, VA)
A. I don’t know but, have you tried to get Customer Service on the line about your computer lately?
Q. I heard that Senator Harry Reid said that the Health Care Plan vote won’t take place until at least September. Is that true? (James – Yonkers, NY)
A. Maybe. What amazes me is that his statement is the first intelligent thing he’s said since he went to Washington.

PRESIDENT ADDRESSES NATION ON HEALTH CARE PLAN
The President went before the nation, (again), to push his Health Care Reform Plan. He started by informing the public that the various economic plans his administration have put into effect have saved the country and that the crisis is over. He did admit that unemployment is high, but says that’s to be expected. Then, he went on to say that the urgency to get the "Plan" passed comes from the multitudes of Americans who are besieging his office to hurry up.
COMMENTS:
He must be from a different planet. No one that I know of is saying that the economic crisis is over or that his plans worked. Americans are trying to slow this process down so that they can have a chance to read and understand the Plan; they do NOT want it rushed. And, I know less about his “Plan” now than I did before I watched his press conference. Please pass the gray poop on.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. What ever happened to that Korean ship with all of the nuclear stuff on it? (Gary – Tukwila, WA)
A. What Korean ship?
Q. Is it true that the Health Plan will include 12 million illegal aliens who shouldn’t even be here? (Helen – Paso Robles, CA)
A. Yes, but it will not include Native Americans who have been here since the beginning of time. On the other hand, they’ll still have the worst health care in the world, so what’s wrong with that?
Q. What would happen if some terrorist or some other nation was successful in crashing the Internet? (Cyrus – Providence, R.I.)
A. The porn industry would go out of business.

OBAMA DEFENDS “MOM” JEANS
President Barrrrrraaawck Obama was on the pitcher’s mound last week to throw the first ball in the All Star Game, and he was wearing a pair of “less-than-designer” jeans. The fashion gaffe stirred up so much flap that all of his critics came out of the woodwork and his jeans became the headline of today.

Do you suppose he’d do us all a favor and wear a copy of his Health Care Reform Bill to the next game? Cap and Trade? Stimulus? List of Czars?

MYSTERY BLOB IDENTIFIED
A huge, dark, gooey floating mass in the Arctic Ocean has been identified. It was fibrous and hairy and scary, but test results have identified it as an enormously large miles-long bloom of algae.
COMMENTS:
Thank God that’s all it was. I thought for a moment that maybe Nancy Pelosi had laid another bad egg.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. Is it true that the new Health Care provides for Federal-paid abortions? (Brittany – Gilbert, AZ)
A. Yes and no. There s a loophole in the proposal that would allow for Federally-funded abortions and there was a request by several Congressmen to have the loophole closed, but the authors refused, saying that they would deal with the Christians and Jews later.
Q. Is it true that there are many Members of Congress who have flat-out refused to read the new Health Care Bill before they vote on it? (Hyram – Bronx, NY)
A. It goes further than that. A group has asked Members of Congress to both sign a pledge not to vote until they have read it and also to give the American taxpayers at least 72 hours to read it before the vote. As of yesterday morning, less than 70 out of almost 600 agreed to sign on.
Q. What’s the skinny about the Apollo 11 moon landing being faked? (Janet – Lexington, OH)
A. If you watched any of the recent footage on the subject, you would be tempted to say that it had to be a fake. The problem is that the astronauts brought back rocks that were definitely from out of this world. And, who knows: Maybe Nancy Pelosi was hatched underneath one of them?

ISLAMIC SUPREMACISTS CONVENE IN CHICAGO
"Islamic Supremacist Group Holds First U.S. Conference," by Diane Macedo for FoxNews, July 17. (Excerpts):
"A group committed to establishing an international Islamic empire and reportedly linked to Al Qaeda is stepping up its Western recruitment efforts by holding its first official conference in the U.S.
"Hizb ut-Tahrir is a global Sunni network with reported ties to confessed 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and Al Qaeda in Iraq's onetime leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. It has operated discreetly in the U.S. for decades. Now, it is coming out of the shadows and openly hosting a July 19 conference entitled, 'The Fall of Capitalism and the Rise of Islam,' at a posh Hilton hotel in a suburb of Chicago.
"Some terrorism experts say it may be even more dangerous than many groups that are on the terror list. 'Hizb ut-Tahrir is one of the oldest, largest indoctrinating organizations for the ideology known as jihadism,' Walid Phares, director of the Future of Terrorism Project at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, told FOXNews.com.
"Phares said that Hizb ut-Tahrir, rather than training members to carry out terrorist acts like Al Qaeda, focuses instead on indoctrinating youths between ages of 9 and 18 to absorb the ideology that calls for the formation of an empire — or 'khilafah' — that will rule according to Islamic law and condones any means to achieve it, including militant jihad...."
COMMENTS:
This is truly the enemy within and we must find a way to rid ourselves of it immediately. The next time Bin Laden calls for a Jihad could be their call to action.
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. What do you call a male ladybug? (Javier – National City, CA)
A. That’s a question for Barney Frank.
Q. What does the word “jihad” mean? (Al – Arlington Heights, IL)
A. In the Islamic Muslim sense, it means a holy war. Several radical Muslim groups with hundreds of underground “cells” in the United States are allegedly waiting for orders to come out in the open in a Jihad against us and our government.
Q. If we make guns illegal, how would domestic terrorists be able to conduct a Jihad against us? (Victor – Tooele, UT)
A. If guns were made illegal, all criminals and terrorists would immediately turn them in, and only members of the NRA would refuse?

VOLUNTEERS SEARCH FOR OLD CIVIL WAR PLANES
COMMENTS:
PLAN TO RUN FOR CONGRESS IN 2010?
TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. They say that 9.5% of the workforce is unemployed as of the end of May. But, I hear higher figures being floated around and that the people who are no longer eligible to collect unemployment benefits are not being counted. I don’t know what to believe. (Chondra – Honolulu, HI)
A. The Department of Labor says that full employment at the end of May would have been about 145 million. According to a U.S. NEWS editorial, the real number of unemployed in May was about 24.7 million, making the real unemployment rate about 17%. Then, the average number of hours worked by those who are employed has shrunk to 33.2 hours, the lowest ever recorded. That means that another 10 million or more people are underemployed, working part-time in an effort to at least get some money coming in the door.
Q. What is the fishing limit in northern California? (Bernice – Washoe Valley, NV)
A. They run it the same as Congress runs things… The limit is as many as you can catch before the Game Warden shows up.
Q. What ever happened to drive-in movies? (Eugene – Paragould, AR)
A. When nudity and virtually explicit sex scenes started to infiltrate the movie industry, the number of automobile accidents near drive-in movies shot way up and their liability insurance got to be too high to afford. The rest got condomend.
