Debt

My question to you is: Just HOW can any responsible Citizen even CONSIDER re-electing our current White House Resident ?!?

The CBO has estimated that the U.S. will be $20 TRILLION dollars in debt by 2020 if something is not done to curb the PRESENT rate of Government spending; imagine what will happen if Mr. Obama is reelected and continues to spend at his current rate...

Remember, over half of the debt that Obama added to our budget is held by China; should China decide to demand repayment tomorrow, the U.S. would be bankrupt overnight.

Do you consider this responsible leadership?

Man of the House

A husband had just finished reading a new book entitled, You Can Be THE
Man of Your House. Finding new courage that he never knew he had, he
stormed into the kitchen and announced to his wife, "From now on, you
need to know that I am the man of this house and my word is the 'Law.'
You will prepare me a gourmet meal tonight, bring it to me, and when I
am done eating my meal, you will clear the dishes and serve me a
scrumptious dessert. After dinner, you are going to go upstairs with me
and we will make love the way I want! Afterwards, you are going to draw
me a bath so I can relax. You will put on soothing music, wash my back
and towel me dry and bring me my robe. You will massage my feet and
hands to relieve any last bit of tension so that I can sleep like a
baby. Then tomorrow, guess who's going to dress me and comb my hair?"

The wife replied, "The funeral director would be my first guess, unless
I have you cremated."

Happy Valentines Day !

I know that Valentines day is just a commercial ploy to force unsuspecting males to invest in chocolate,flowers, and Hallmark cards for their significant others, lest they be viewed as uncaring buffoons that are not worthy of sharing house space with.

That being said, I'm NOT going to be the one to buck the advertising peer pressure. Cards, candy, and all my love go out to all my dear womenfolk.

After all, it's only once a year, and it can't ever really be a bad thing to let your feminine counterparts know that you do have SOME sort of tender feelings towards them, can it? A $4.00 card and a $10.00 box of candy really won't cut THAT much into the drinking budget, and will go at least a short way to earlier forgiveness for your next (unavoidable --You ARE MALE,after all!) transgression of the feminine sensibilities.

This year I'm forgoing the (Red) Roses however, as a small protest of the annual guilt-fest we Males have to endure to keep the peace in our Castles, besides, I forgot about them until the flower shops had already been sold out by my over-eager compatriots....

Love YOU Beth, Joanna, Erin, and Anna

This is what I imagine a Muslim must have to do to keep the gals in his Harem satisfied :)

pResident Obama and the Constitution

I don't know how many of you have been following the Catholic Church/Contraception controversy, but you really should get informed about the issue; for it is the first overt overreach of Government into matters of conscience and is the first small step in the process of forcing all Citizens to become beholden to the State in ALL matters, large or small.

If this overreach is allowed to continue unchallenged; it WILL be the end of a free Citizenry in this Country and we will be halfway down the road to a totalitarian State.

Nancy Pelosi famously stated:

"We have to pass the bill to find out what is in it"

Well, we are beginning to find out just WHAT IS in it, and any person who values his or her personal freedom is livid at finding out that their freedom to choose will be a thing of the past in short order; indeed, they will no longer have the luxury of following their own conscience in their healthcare decisions. The Federal Government will be in charge of that now.

The time is drawing ever closer when it will be necessary to "water the tree of Liberty with the blood of tyrants and patriots"

Invest in copious amounts of precious metals NOW, both Brass and Lead.
