WARNING: GROWING CONCERN……

editor — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 15:53:19 +0000

CONCERNED? Some who started from humble beginnings who grew in wisdom and faith and became aware of the ETERNAL ONE who lead them to believe that all are “ENDOWED BY THEIR CREATOR TO HAVE LIFE, LIBERTY, PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS,” etc. Many who believed and shared this openly were and are destroyed emotionally, by reputation, etc. and physcally MURDERED by many who hated them.

It’s been going on since the beginning of human time AND IS SURELY GOING ON NOW: FROM ABRAHAM LINCOLN-
JFK, MLK, etc. IT BEGINS WITH VOCAL HATRED, BEATINGS AND ENDS IN HORROR. It’s happening and growing today. WILL YOU PRAY FOR THE PROTECTION OF OUR PRESIDENT, HIS FAMILY, OUR NATION, etc.? May God have mercy on those who hate with words of fire and untruths!

Who Is Weighing New Tax On Wealthy? Millionaires In Congress : NPR

www.npr.org

President Obama’s “Buffett Rule” would mean a new tax for people who make more than a million dollars a year, who currently pay a much lower rate than an average middle-class American. The president, in fact, proposed this rule to a group of people with a lot of millionaires in it: Congress.

President Obama continued laying what may be more groundwork for his re-election campaign Monday, including a new tax proposal. He calls it the “Buffett rule”: a new tax on people making more than $1million a year, who currently pay a much lower rate than an average middle-class American. The president, in fact, proposed this rule to a group of people with a lot of millionaires in it.

The number of Americans who are millionaires is pretty low — about 1 percent of the population. Members of Congress who are millionaires? Nearly 50 percent.

WE ARE ALL FROM THE ONE……….

HOW SAD IT IS THAT SOME PEOPLE WON’T ACCEPT THAT WE ALL ARE PART OF THE HUMAN RACE AND CAME FROM THE SAME SOURCE, whether from God or some planet. Down in my neck of the woods some say they couldn’t vote for Obama because of his race, or they think he was a muslim. Jesus was a dark skin palestinian Jew. The key to life is to love God with your whole being and your neighbor as yourself.

HALF TRUTHS, LIES, ect. Believed by non thinkers VS FACTS…

My comments from reliable sources and history to an article written by an opinionated person sent to me by a friend.
 
Barack Obama is the best thing that has happened to America in the last 100 years. Truly, he is the savior of America ‘s future. (No, it would be FDR in the last 100 yrs.)  Despite the fact that he has some of the lowest approval ratings among recent presidents (No,it’s about average), history will see Barack Obama as the source of America ‘s resurrection. Barack Obama has plunged the country into levels of debt that we could not have previously imagined (NO, WW I, THE GREAT DEPRESSION, WW II, VIETNAM, ETC., WERE MUCH WORSE AND WERE NOT IMAGINED); his efforts to nationalize health care (ALREADY HELPING THOSE WHO REALLY NEEDED IT) have been met with fierce (BY A FEW) resistance nationwide.
 
TARP bailouts and stimulus spending (TARP APPROVED AND STIMULUS SUPPORTED BY BUSH) have shown little positive effect on the national economy (NO, IT HAS CUT THE HORROR OF WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN BY THE DO NOTHING OPPOSITION IN HALF); unemployment is unacceptably high ( and looks to remain that way for most of a decade; legacy entitlement programs have ballooned to unsustainable levels (TO PROTECT THE INNOCENT ONES WHO WOULD HAVE SUFFERED MUCH MORE), and there is a seething anger (BY A FEW) in the populace.
That’s why Barack Obama is such a good thing for America.  (AN ACCURATE HISTORY WILL TELL).
 
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 
Surely there was waste. More accountability and regulation is needed by all (including our serves, schools, churches, businesses, corporations, governments, THE PENTAGON AND MILITARY COMPLEX, THE ENVIRONMENT, etc.).
 
BUT, THANK GOD SO FAR IN AMERICA, THE MAJORITY REACHES OUT (sometimes slowly, wastefully, feebly, etc) TO ALL PEOPLE TO HELP THEM HAVE LIFE, LIBERTY, AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.

It is truly a never ending story.  More later,-mackie

GOP FACING DIVIDE ON IMMIGRATION….

editor — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 17:16:00 +0000

‘July 7, 2010

Some prominent conservatives are speaking out in favor of the kind of comprehensive immigration bill that many Republicans oppose — one that would include border security and then a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.

As a leading evangelical conservative,

Richard Land’s credentials are impeccable. He heads the public policy arm of the Southern Baptist Convention, and from that influential perch he’s been urging his fellow conservatives to rethink their opposition to the immigration overhaul.

“I’ve had some of them appeal to me. They say, ‘Richard, you’re going to divide the conservative coalition.’ And I said, ‘Well, I may divide the old conservative coalition, but I’m not going to divide the new one.’ ”

Land adds, “If the new conservative coalition is going to be a governing coalition, it’s going to have to have a significant number of Hispanics in it, that’s dictated by demographics, and you don’t get large numbers of Hispanics to support you when you’re engaged in anti-Hispanic immigration rhetoric.”

Last week, when President Obama gave his speech on immigration, Land was in the audience. In fact, he had urged the president to make the speech. Obama called on both parties to rise above petty politics to fix the country’s broken immigration system.

Land says that will be very hard because, for both parties, there’s a short-term political advantage to doing nothing.’

Taxes at Lowest Level in 60 Years

editor — Sat, 17 Apr 2010 23:22:40 +0000

I’m sure the teabaggers in DC today will be thanking Obama and the Democratic Congress for overcoming GOP obstructionism and lowering taxes to their lowest level in 60 years?

“The American people need to be reminded that 98 percent of Americans got a tax cut last year,” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Wednesday.

Reid was referring to the impact of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, otherwise known as the stimulus — essentially, the only Obama policy to really impact people’s 2009 tax returns. In fact, tax refunds reached an all-time high this year in part because of the stimulus, the president said in his weekly address on Saturday. Meanwhile, taxes are at their lowest levels in 60 years, according to William Gale, co-director of the Tax Policy Center and director of the Retirement Security Project at the Brookings Institution.

“The relation between what is said in the tax debate and what is true about tax policy is often quite tenuous,” Gale told Hotsheet. “The rise of the Tea Party at at time when taxes are literally at their lowest in decades is really hard to understand.”

RADICAL ATTACKS ON OBAMA MORE HEATED..

editor — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 12:30:05 +0000

With the selection of Barack Obama as the first black Democratic nominee for president seeming more possible by the day, racists and white supremacists are posting increasingly ugly and even threatening remarks on the Internet.

[1] “OBAMA WILL DIE, KKK FOREVER,” concludes a [2] Feb. 15 post by “Rodney” to a blog run by a person identified only as Strider333. Above that signoff, Rodney wrote: “The KKK or someone WILL assassinate Obama! If we get a NIGGER President all you NIGGER’s [sic] will think you’ve won and that the WHITE people will have to bow to you……….”

CHECKING FOR RELIABLE SOURCES; NOT OPINION…

editor — Mon, 03 Aug 2009 17:48:28 +0000

Truthorfiction.com, snopes.com, and factcheck.org are websites you can use to try to verify something. They are not infallible but try to get at the source of whether it is true or not.  Sometimes they give their own opinions which may or may not be true.
 
I sent you the website because there are some answers that we all are looking for.  OBAMA ONLY GAVE A BROAD OUT LINE, BUT IT IS THE CONGRESS WHO IS WRITING THE BILL.  It has input from democrats, republicans, and independents.
 
MOST IMPORTANTLY, THE BILL WILL NOT BE FINAL UNTIL IT GOES THROUGH BOTH HOUSES OF CONGRESS, IS DEBATED ON, AMENDED AND AGREED TO BY BOTH HOUSES.
 
Remember, our congresspeople are our employees.  I hope we all will call or email them and 
 
LET THEM SPECIFICALLY KNOW WHAT WE LIKE AND DON’T LIKE ABOUT THAT PART OF THE BILL.  IF WE DON’T THEN IT WILL BE A LONG TIME BEFORE WE GET ANY HEALTH-CARE REFORM. WITHOUT UNIVERSAL HEALTH-CARE THE 50 MILLION AND GROWING UNINSURED WILL CONTINUE GOING TO THE EMERGENCY ROOMS WHICH RAISES ALL OUR PREMIUMS WHICH WILL COST US MORE THAT PROVIDING HEALTH-CARE FOR EVERYONE, RIGHT?

GOP DENYS APPROVAL OF UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE TO RECEIVE MILLIONS FROM FOR PROFIT INSURANCE COS.

editor — Wed, 29 Jul 2009 23:00:23 +0000

LORD, HELP THOSE WHO BELIEVE THE LIES OF THOSE (mainly politicians) WHO ARE PAID MILLIONS TO SAY THAT WE DON’T NEED A NON-PROFIT HEALTHCARE SYSTEM THAT COVERS EVERYONE, TO SUPPORT A 30% PROFIT SYSTEM THAT CAN RAISE OUR PREMIUMS AND NOT ALLOW THE COVERAGE WE NEED.

HELP THEM TO UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS BETTER TO HAVE SOME KIND OF HEALTHCARE THAN BEING DENIED ANY.
