We must all hang together, or assuredly we shall all hang separately. Ben Franklin

Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. Ben Franklin

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?

It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace--but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! March 23, 1775 Patrick Henry

"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty." - John F. Kennedy, Inaugural Address, Jan. 20, 1961


One ought never to turn one''s back on a threatened danger and try to run away from it. If you do that, you will double the danger. But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Winston Churchill

%u201CAdmittedly there is a risk in any course we follow other than this, but every lesson in history tells us that the greater risk lies in appeasement, and this is the specter our well-meaning liberal friends refuse to face--that their policy of accommodation is appeasement, and it gives no choice between peace and war, only between fight and surrender.%u201D (President Reagan, 1964. Rendezvous with Destiny)

"Ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country." - John F. Kennedy, Inaugural Address, Jan. 20, 1961

"Today we need a nation of minute men; citizens who are not only prepared to take up arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as a basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom. The cause of liberty, the cause of American, cannot succeed with any lesser effort."-- President John F. Kennedy, January 29, 1961

How''s Operation Chaos doing nowadays?

Being Nancy pretty much ran the country FOR Ronnie those last few years(spiritual "adviser/psychic aside)- maybe the "john" is letting a few of his puppet-masters get to know the SECRETIVE Cindy better.
Enquiring minds want to know....

Whatta SOAP Opera all the way around.

The ONE thing I DO know is that between the increasingly UNBALANCED ECONOMY and MOTHER NATURE showing HOW ticked off this planet CAN be - WE''RE ALL (rich and poor alike) facing the BIGGEST CHALLENGE to our survival as a species since WWII or even further back.

What''s it going to take? A Giant HAND and booming celestial voice shouting GROW UP and BEHAVE or else?

Any possible civilization elsewhere in the universe has NOTHING to fear from us - at this rate we''ll destroy OURSELVES long before we ever meet them.

"Yes, there have been appeasers in the past, and the president is exactly right, and one of them is Neville Chamberlain", Mr. McCain told reporters on his campaign bus after a speech in Columbus, Ohio.


"There are of course those who do not want us to speak. I suspect even now, orders are being shouted into telephones, and men with guns will soon be on their way. Why? Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn''t there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who''s to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you''re looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn''t be? War, terror, disease. There were a Myriad of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. Fear got the best of you".......

snakes on the plane airforce one,,,
snakes in the whitehouse,,,

Once upon a time there was a serpent who was badly injured in a fight with another animal. It managed to slither away to safety but would have surely died if a benevolent man had not seen it suffering by the side of the road. The goodly man carefully wrapped the snake up and took it to his house, where he bestowed the kindest and gentlest care on the snake until it was healed and could return to the wild. Just as the man was releasing the serpent back into the grass, the ungrateful snake turned and bit him on the hand.

"What did you do that for?" cried the man, who knew that the bite of this particular snake was usually fatal. "Didn''t I take care of you when no one else would?"

The snake shrugged (no small feat for a snake!) and replied to the benevolent--and now doomed-- man, "What did you expect? You knew I was a snake when you picked me up."

Part 1:

One day John McCain was sitting in a bar
when someone sat down beside him and
ordered a beer.

The barman served the beer when
all of a sudden the small man jumped
out of his jacket pocket and nocked
over the beer.

John Apologized to the man and
ordered him another beer.

When the barman served up the
beer, the little man jumped out
of McCain''s pocket and nocked the
beer over again.

John Apologized to the man and
ordered him another beer. And the
same thing happened again.

So the man next to John asked him,
"I''m sorry, but, can I ask you about
the little man in your pocket"?

John said sure - I would like to convey
the story. When I traveled to Iraq at the
beginning of the "War on Freedom"
started with the Iraqis, I travelled to
Iraq on a "Fact Finding Mission" and
while there we visited the market place
where some of my companions found
GREAT deals on some Persian Rugs.
Well, I ventured off for something more
treasured and I found the Brass Lamp.

Part 2:

So, I bought the lamp along with some
other items and brought them back to my
Arizona Ranch - you know because
we republicans don''''t own property or
farms - we own Ranches!

Just before I after I decided to run for
the Presidency I found the lamp - it was
a long holiday weekend and my
female lobbyest was at home with her
family so I was bored to tears when I
happened upon the lamp again. So, I
decided to clean it up. So I grabbed an
old t-shirt that the female lobbyest that
I didn''''t have Sexx with to clean the lamp -

WHEN - POW - All of a sudden
a genie popped out of the lamp and
said - "I am the Genie of the Bottle and
I will grant you three wishes" . Well
John was dumbfounded - more then
usual - and had to sit back to gather
his thoughts - and came up with his
first wish.

For my first wish John said: " I
would like to be nominated for
The Republican National Candidate
for President of the United States"
Ring, Ring - the phone call came
stating that John had just took
the delegate lead for the Republican
candidate over Mitt Romney.

Part 3:


Well, McCain said, " I just about
fell out of my expensive leather
lounge chair onto the floor". So
I thought about it and thought about
it and came up with my second wish"

For my second wish, John said, "I would
like three Female lobbyist for my whims
and Pleasures". The Genie quizzically looked
at me and stated "John, you are a Republican,
are you sure you want Female lobbyist?". I
stated that "I did indeed want Female Lobbyist
and that even thought I''''ve been a
Republican in the Senate there were time
that I enjoyed Democratic tendancies and
tastes, like women once in a while".

So the Genie granted John''''s second wish and
"POOF" - three gorgeous female lobbyist appeared
out of thin air and sat on John''''s lap and started
caressing and fondling John. And John started to
sexxually react to the women but the women
noticed that John''''s Privates were of a
Republican size and not a True Democrats
length - I think you get the meaning - and
started to giggle at Johnny''''s little Republican
constituency and this upset John very much.

So for my final wish - John exclaimed to the
other man I told the Genie that "I wanted
a 12 inch Prickk and - POOF - there stood
Lindsay Graham". "Well, John stated. -
he''''s been doing this everytime I go somewhere."

"Lindsay Grahm - the little prickk! He''''s everywhere
I go these days - making a Prickk of himself!"

"So, my Friend", John said. Now you
know the story of my 12 inch Prickk!

Since he accused Obama of being elitist, I wonder which of his seven mansions McCain is holding this little party at?

I hope the public did not MISS the photo of McSameBush and his "candy-wife". It must be really nice to be UNCONCERNED about the $4+ gallon price of gasoline and at the same time to be CHAUFFEURED to and from each of his 8 or 9 homes! Nothing like being married to the woman worth MILLIONS.

Well j, the reason the U.S. is in the situation its in now and Condi alluded to it a few days ago is the U.S. basically had 2 options after 9/11, treat it as a one time event or treat it as the pretext to a greater attack and war against the U.S.! The Bush administration decided to treat 9/11 as a worst case scenario and went to an extreme it now appears it didn''''t have to go to, breaking rules and laws and emptying the U.S. Treasury in the process! As crazy as a lot of those actions seem now, the Bush administration argument that no expense will be spared defending and saving the U.S. and no obstacle or Law will stand in our way made sense to some right after 9/11, but the further we moved away from 9/11 without any further attacks the more Pres. Bush took heat, the old catch-22, but in a balanced observation, had the U.S. continued to be attacked not many would have cared how Pres. Bush decided how to handle it! Monday morning quarterbacking.

*** My only problem with what Bush has done over the past 8 years is giving the Walmart Execs and wallstreet execs too many tax breaks! They did NOT create jobs! Do you really think some stock broker is going to create jobs by getting tax breaks?? NO! Do you think Walmart is going to hire more people at a better rate...NOOOOO! Walmart hires based on sales growth, NOT TAX CUTS.. I know, I worked for them. Also I hate Bush because he is too chicken to start deporting illegals! I hate Bush!
