DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE RNC AND THE DNC CONVENTIONS
While the RNC invites Condoleezza Rice to speak, telling about her rise from racial discrimination to become the Secretary of State for the USA, the DNC invites Sandra Fluke, whose claim to fame is testifying before congress regarding her fear of being denied birth control pills for her and her friends. While she may not be promiscuous, this made her appear to be so because it seems to be a driving force in her life. Compare Condoleezza Rice's goals for America against Sandra Fluke's goals. This speaks a lot for what the DNC thinks is important to the average American. The average American wants the old America back, the one that is respected throughout the USA and abroad.

THE GOVERNMENT HAS RIPPED OFF OUR SOCIAL SECURITY
Subject: SOCIAL SECURITY NOW CALLED 'FEDERAL BENEFIT PAYMENT/ENTITLEMENT'
Have you noticed, your Social Security check is now referred to as a
"federal benefit payment"?
Our government gets away with way too much in all areas of our lives, while they live
lavishly on their grossly overpaid incomes!
"federal benefit payment"?
Our government gets away with way too much in all areas of our lives, while they live
lavishly on their grossly overpaid incomes!
RECOMMEND THIS BLOGSITE UNTIL EVERY ONE HAS READ THE FOLLOWING:.
(This was sent to me per email and touches a nerve in me.)
Remember, not only did you contribute to Social Security but your
employer did too. It totaled 15% of your income before taxes. If you
averaged only $30K over your working life, that's close to $220,500.
If you calculate the future value of $4,500 per year (yours & your
employer's contribution) at a simple 5% (less than what the government
pays on the money that it borrows), after 49 years of working you'd
have $892,919.98.
If you took out only 3% per year, you'd receive $26,787.60 per year
and it would last better than 30 years (until you're 95 if you retire
at age 65) and that's with no interest paid on that final amount ondeposit! If you bought an annuity and it paid 4% per year, you'd have
a lifetime income of $2,976.40 per month.
Entitlement my butt, I paid cash for my social security insurance!!!!
Just because they borrowed the money, doesn't make my benefits some
kind of charity or handout!!
Congressional benefits ---- free healthcare, outrageous retirement
packages, 67 paid holidays, three weeks paid vacation, unlimited paid
sick days, now that's welfare, and they have the nerve to call my
social security retirement entitlements?
We're "broke" and can't help our own Seniors, Veterans, Orphans, Homeless.
In the last months we have provided aid to Haiti , Chile , and Turkey
. And now Pakistan .......hideout of bin Laden. Literally, BILLIONS of
DOLLARS!!!
Our retired seniors living on a 'fixed income' receive no aid nor do
they get any breaks while our government and religious organizations
pour Hundreds of Bill ions of $$$$$$'s and Tons of Food to Foreign
Countries!
They call Social Security and Medicare an entitlement even though most
of us have been paying for it all our working lives and now when it’s
time for us to collect, the government is running out of money. Why
did the government borrow from it in the first place? Imagine if the
*GOVERNMENT* gave 'US' the same support they give to other countries.
Sad isn't it?

COPY OF AN EMAIL REGARDING NANCY PELOSI'S CREDENTIALS TO SERVE IN THE WHITE HOUSE
This is a "copied and pasted" email that I received from someone regarding the copy of a letter that was sent by Mr. Gutherie to Nancy Pelosi. His impressive credentials can be viewed at the bottom of this email. They far outweigh Mrs. Pelosi's credentials.
* See Mr. Gutherie's credentials
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Ms. Pelosi:
I write to you out of utter disdain! You are as despicable and un-American as the traitor Jane Fonda.
I am a soon to be 65 year-old who has voted in every state and local election since 1966. I have voted for both Republicans and Democrats alike. I have worked on campaigns for both Republicans and Democrats, white and black. I served the country that I love in Vietnam , as my son did in the Middle East . I was awarded two bronze stars. I have been involved in politics since age 6 when my father was campaign manager for a truly great American Congressman, Charles Raper Jonas, who worked for his constituents and his country, and was to be admired, unlike you, millionaires with much of our fortune being made as a result of your pubic service.
You obviously haven't read the Constitution recently, if ever, the Federalist Papers, or even David McCullough's book on John Adams. You ought to take the time while riding around in your government provided luxury executive jet to do just that. You represent Socialistic and even Marxist principals that our founding fathers tried to avoid when setting out the capitalistic republican form of government represented by our Constitution.
I find it interesting that you and your husband are multi-lic service. You have controlled legislation that has enhanced your husbands investments both on and off shore. At the same time you redistributed the wealth of others. Our system of a free market economy is being destroyed by the likes of you, Harry Reid, and now our President. You ride around in a Gulfstream airplane at the tax payers expense while criticizing the presidents of companies who produced something for the economy. You add nothing to the economy of the United States ; you only subtract therefrom.
I would like to suggest that you return to the city of fruitcakes and nuts and eat your husbands’ canned tuna and pineapple produced by illegal immigrants and by workers who have been excluded from the protection that 90% of the legal workers in the United States have.
I await your defeat in the next election with glee...
Don’t ever use the term un-American again for protesters who love this country and are exercising their rights upon which this country was founded. By the way, while I served in the Army, I was spit on by the same type of lunatics who support you and who you probably supported in the 60s and 70s. You are an embarrassment to all of us who served so that you would have the protected right of free speech to call us un-American. But at the same time, I have the right to write you to notify you that I consider you to be un-American, as do the majority of the people of this formerly great country. You are a true disgrace to most of the people who served this country by offering themselves for public service in the United States Congress.
I feel certain your aides will not share this letter with you, but I intend to share it with many...
