The Constitution and Declaration of Independence of the United States of America

Remember where we have come from this Independence Day 2012

Full text of the Declaration of Independence

The effect of 66 years

What  happened to the radiation that lasts thousands of years?
HIROSHIMA  1945

 
We all know that  Hiroshima and  Nagasaki   were destroyed in August 1945
after the explosion of atomic bombs.
However, we know little about the progress made by the people of that land
during the past 65 years.

HIROSHIMA - 65 YEARS LATER

DETROIT- 65  YEARS AFTER  HIROSHIMA

 
What has caused more long term destruction -
the  A-bomb,
or Government welfare programs created to buy the
votes of those who want someone to take care of them?
Japan does not have a welfare system.
Work for it or do without.

These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read and all applicable to this experiment:

1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.

2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.

3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.

4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it!

5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.

My kind of teacher

This one is dedicated to all my friends who ever taught school, parented children or served their country.

A former Sergeant, having served his time with the Marine Corps, took a new job as a school teacher, but just before the school year started, he injured his back.

He was required to wear a plaster cast around the upper part of his body. Fortunately, the cast fit under his shirt and wasn't noticeable. On the first day of class, he found himself assigned to the toughest students in the school.

The punks, having already heard the new teacher was a former Marine, were leery of him and decided to see how tough he really was before trying any pranks. Walking confidently into the rowdy classroom, the new teacher opened the window wide and sat down at his desk.

When a strong breeze made his tie flap, he picked up a stapler and promptly stapled the tie to his chest.

There was dead silence.

He had no trouble with discipline that year.
(I'm still laughing!)

The Pig And The Horse

There was a farmer who collected horses; he only needed one more breed to complete his collection. One day, he found out that his neighbor had the particular horse breed he needed. So, he constantly bothered his neighbor until he sold it to him. A month later, the horse became ill and he called the veterinarian, who said:

- Well, your horse has a virus. He must take this medicine for three days. I'll come back on the 3rd day and if he's not better, we're going to have to put him down.

Nearby, the pig listened closely to their conversation.
The next day, they gave him the medicine and left. The pig approached the horse and said:
- Be strong, my friend. Get up or else they're going to put you to sleep!

On the second day, they gave him the medicine and left. The pig came back and said:

- Come on buddy, get up or else you're going to die! Come on, I'll help you get up. Let's go! One, two, three...
On the third day, they came to give him the medicine and the vet said:

- Unfortunately, we're going to have to put him down tomorrow. Otherwise, the virus might spread and infect the other horses.
After they left, the pig approached the horse and said:

- Listen pal, it's now or never! Get up, come on! Have courage! Come on! Get up! Get up! That's it, slowly! Great! Come on, one, two, three... Good, good. Now faster, come on.... Fantastic! Run, run more! Yes! Yay! Yes! You did it, you're a champion!!!
All of a sudden, the owner came back, saw the horse running in the field and began shouting:

- It's a miracle! My horse is cured. This deserves a party. Let's kill the pig!

Points for reflection: this often happens in the workplace. Nobody truly knows which employee actually deserves the merit of success, or who's actually contributing the necessary support to make things happen.

LEARNING TO LIVE WITHOUT RECOGNITION IS A SKILL!

THINK THIS GUY HAS IT ALL COVERED

I received this in an email this week thought i should share it.....

I COULDN'T THINK OF  ANYTHING HE LEFT OUT.

I Am the Democratic, Republican Liberal-Progressive's Worst Nightmare.
I am a White, Conservative, Tax-Paying, American Veteran, Gun Owning

Biker. That’s me!
I am a Master Mason. I work hard and long hours with my hands to earn

a living.

I believe in God and the freedom of religion, but I don't push it on others.
I ride Harley Davidson Motorcycles, and drive American-made cars, and

I believe in American products and buy them whenever I can.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and not some liberal

governmental functionary, Democratic or Republican, that wants to share it with others who don't

work!

I'm in touch with my feelings and I like it that way!

I think owning a gun doesn't make you a killer; it makes you a smart

American.

I think being a minority does not make you noble or victimized, and

does not entitle you to anything. Get over it!

I believe that if you are selling me a Big Mac or any other item, you

should do it in English.

I believe there should be no other language option.

I believe everyone has a right to pray to his or her God when and

where they want to.

My heroes are Malcolm Forbes, Bill Gates, John Wayne, Babe Ruth,

Roy Rogers, and Willie G. Davidson, who makes the awesome Harley

Davidson Motorcycles.

I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor.
I know wrestling is fake and I don't waste my time watching or arguing

about it.

I've never owned a slave, nor was I a slave. I haven't burned any

witches or been persecuted by the Turks, and neither have you!

I believe if you don't like the way things are here, go back to where

you came from and change your own country!

This is AMERICA ...We like it the way it is and more so the way

it was ...so stop trying to change it to look like Russia or China , or some other socialist country!
If you were born here and don't like it... you are free to move to any

Socialist country that will have you. I believe it is time to really clean house,

starting with the White House, the seat of our biggest problems.

I want to know which church is it, exactly, where the Reverend

Jesse Jackson preaches, where he gets his money, and why he

is always part of the problem and not the solution?

Can I get an AMEN on that one?

I also think the cops have the right to pull you over if you're

breaking the law, regardless of what color you are, but not

just because you happen to ride a bike. Or 18 wheeler !!!!!!!!!!

And, no, I don't mind having my face shown on my driver's license.

I think it's good....
And I'm proud that 'God' is written on my money..

I think if you are too stupid to know how a ballot works, I

don't want you deciding who should be running the most

powerful nation in the world for the next four years.

I dislike those people standing in the intersections trying to sell

me stuff or trying to guilt me into making 'donations' to their cause....

Get a job and do your part to support yourself and your family!

I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child, it takes two parents....

I believe 'illegal' is illegal no matter what the lawyers think!

I believe the American flag should be the only one allowed in AMERICA !

If this makes me a BAD American, then yes, I'm a BAD American.

If you are a BAD American too, please forward this to everyone you know...

We want our country back!

My Country..... I hope this offends all illegal aliens.

My great, great, great, great grandfather watched and bled as his

friends died in the Revolution & the War of 1812.
My great, great, great grandfather watched as his friends died in

the Mexican American War.
My great, great grandfather watched as his friends & brothers

died in the Civil War.
My great grandfather watched as his friends died in the

Spanish-American War.
My grandfather watched as his friends died in WW I.
My father watched as his friends died in WW II.

I watched as my friends died in Vietnam , Panama & Desert Storm.
My son watched & bled as his friends died in Afghanistan and Iraq .
None of them died for the Mexican Flag.
Everyone died for the American flag.

Texas high school students raised a Mexican flag on a school flag pole,
other students took it down. Guess who was expelled...the students

who took it down.

California high school students were sent home on Cinco de Mayo,

because they wore T-shirts with the American flag printed on them.

Enough is enough

This message needs to be viewed by

every American; and every
American needs to stand up for

America .

We've bent over to appease the America-haters long enough.

I'm taking a stand.

I'm standing up because the hundreds of thousands who died fighting

in wars for this country, and for the American flag.

If you agree, stand up with me. If you disagree, please let me know.
I will gladly remove you from my e-mail list.

And shame on anyone who tries to make this a racist message.

AMERICANS, stop giving away Your RIGHTS !

Let me make this clear! THIS IS MY COUNTRY !

This statement DOES NOT mean I'm against immigration !

YOU ARE WELCOME HERE, IN MY COUNTRY, welcome to

come legally:
1. Get a sponsor

2. Learn the LANGUAGE, as immigrants have in the past !

 

3. Live by OUR rules !

4. Get a job !

5. Pay YOUR Taxes !

6. No Social Security until you have earned it and Paid for it !

7. NOW find a place to lay your head !



We've gone so far the other way . . . bent over backwards not to

offend anyone.

Only AMERICANS seems to care when American Citizens are being

offended !

WAKE UP America ! ! !



Made in the U S A & PROUD OF IT!!!!! 

Gun control

"I have a very strict gun control policy: if there's a gun around, I want to be in control of it." Clint Eastwood

Due to shortage of ammo

THOUGHT YOU MIGHT ENJOY THIS

'Someone asked the other day, 'What was your favorite fast food when you were growing up?' 

'We didn't have fast food when I was growing up,' I informed him. 

'All the food was slow.' 

'C'mon, seriously. Where did you eat?' 

'It was a place called 'at home, ''I explained. ! 
'Mom cooked every day and when Dad got home from work, we sat down together at the dining room table, and if I didn't like what she put on my plate I was allowed to sit there until I did like it.' 

By this time, the kid was laughing so hard I was afraid he was going to suffer serious internal damage, so I didn't tell him the part about how I had to have permission to leave the table. 

But here are some other things I would have told him about my childhood if I figured his system could have handled it : 

Some parents NEVER owned their own house, never wore Levis, never set foot on a golf course, never traveled out of the country or had a credit card. 

In their later years they had something called a revolving charge card. The card was good only at Sears Roebuck. Or maybe it was Sears &Roebuck. Either way, there is no Roebuck anymore. Maybe he died. 

My parents never drove me to soccer practice. This was mostly because we never had heard of soccer. I had a bicycle that
weighed probably 50 pounds, and only had one speed, (slow) 

We didn't have a television in our house until I was 19. 
It was, of course, black and white, and the station went off the air at midnight, after playing the national anthem and a poem about God; it came back on the air at about 6 a..m. and there was usually a locally produced news and farm show on, featuring local people. 

I was 21 before I tasted my first pizza, it was called 'pizza pie.' When I bit into it, I burned the roof of my mouth and the cheese slid off, swung down, plastered itself againstmy chin and burned that, too. It's still the best pizza I ever had. 

I never had a telephone in my room. The only phone in the house was in the living room and it was on a party line. Before you could dial, you had to listen and make sure some people you didn't know weren't already using the line. 

Pizzas were not delivered to our home But milk was. 

All newspapers were delivered by boys and all boys delivered newspapers-- my brother delivered a newspaper, six days a week.. It cost 7 cents a paper, of which he got to keep 2 cents. He had to get up at 6AM every morning.  On Saturday , he had to
collect the 42 cents from his customers. His favorite customers were the ones who gave him 50 cents and told him to keep the change. His least favorite customers were the ones who seemed to never be home on collection day. 

Movie stars kissed with their mouths shut. At least, they did in the movies. There were no movie ratings because all movies were responsibly produced for everyone to enjoy viewing, without profanity or violence or most anything offensive. 

If you grew up in a generation before there was fast food, you may want to share some of these memories with your children or grandchildren
Just don't blame me if they bust a gut laughing. 

Growing up isn't what it used to be, is it?

MEMORIES from a friend : 

My Dad is cleaning out my grandmother's house (she died in December) and he brought me an old Royal Crown Cola bottle. In the bottle top was a stopper with a bunch of holes in it.. I knew immediately what it was, but my daughter had no idea. She thought they had tried to make it a salt shaker or
something. I knew it as the bottle that sat on the end of the ironing board to 'sprinkle' clothes with because we didn't have steam irons. Man, I am old. 

How many do you remember? 

Head lights dimmer switches on the floor. 

Ignition switches on the dashboard. 

Heaters mounted on the inside of the fire wall. 

Real ice boxes. 

Pant leg clips for bicycles without chain guards. 

Soldering irons you heat on a gasburner. 

Using hand signals for cars without turn signals.

If you remembered 6-10 = You are getting older 
If you remembered 11-15 = Don't tell your age,
If you remembered 16-25 = You' re older than dirt! 

I might be older than dirt but those memories are some of the best parts of my life.

They did WHAT!!

Land of the Free (blue angles)

 

Blue Angels (New)

This is really good.
Did you know that the pilot on the right of the formation is always a Marine
This is one of the best Blue Angel videos you'll see!! Great perspective with much of it filmed from the cockpit.
You see the formation then see it from the pilot or camera view. This was recorded in FL. And El Centro, CA

Only 49 more states to go!!!!!!!

Hooray for Florida !

I-95 and I-75 will be jammed for the next month or so with druggies and deadbeats heading North out of Florida, because this is the first state in the union to require drug testing to receive welfare!

Hooray for Florida ! In signing the new law, Republican Gov. Rick Scott said, "If Floridians want welfare, they better make sure they are drug-free".

Applicants must pay for the drug test, but are reimbursed if they test drug-free.

Applicants who test positive for illicit substances won't be eligible for the funds for a year, or until they undergo treatment.

Those who fail a second time will be banned from receiving funds for three years!

Naturally, a few people are crying this is unconstitutional.
How is this unconstitutional? It is a legal requirement that every person applying for a JOBhas to pass drug tests in order to get the JOB, why not those who receive welfare?

Let's get welfare back to the ones who NEED it, not to those who WON'T get a JOB.

Be Proud To Be White....

Michael Richards makes his point... and whether we like it or not, he is telling the truth. 

Michael Richards, better known as Kramer from TVs Seinfeld, does make a good point. 

This was his defense speech in court after making racial comments in his comedy act. 

He makes some very interesting points... 

Someone finally said it. How many are actually paying attention to this? 

____

There are African Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans, Arab Americans, etc. 

And then there are just Americans. You pass me on the street and sneer in my direction. 

You call me 'White boy', 'Cracker', 'Honkey', 'Whitey', 'Caveman'... and that's OK... 

But when I call you, Nigger, Kike, Towel head, Sand-nigger, Camel Jockey, Beaner, Gook, or Chink ... You call me a racist. 

You say that whites commit a lot of violence against you...
So why are the ghettos the most dangerous places to live? 

You have the United Negro College Fund.

You have Martin Luther King Day. 

You have Black History Month. 

You have Cesar Chavez Day.

You have Yom Hashoah. 

You have Ma'uled Al-Nabi. 

You have the NAACP. 

You have BET... 

If we had WET (White Entertainment Television), we'd be racists. 

If we had a White Pride Day, you would call us racists. 

If we had White History Month, we'd be racists. 

If we had any organization for only whites to 'advance' OUR lives, we'd be racists.

We have a Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, a Black Chamber of Commerce, and then we just have the plain Chamber of Commerce. 

Wonder who pays for that?? 

A white woman could not be in the Miss Black American pageant, but any color can be in the Miss America pageant. 

If we had a college fund that only gave white students scholarships... You know we'd be racists. 

There are over 60 openly proclaimed Black Colleges in the US ... yet if there were 'White colleges', that would be a racist college. 

In the Million Man March, you believed that you were marching for your race and rights.
If we marched for our race and rights, you would call us racists. 

You are proud to be black, brown, yellow and orange, and you're not afraid to announce it. 

But when we announce our white pride, you call us racists. 

You rob us, car jack us, and shoot at us. 

But, when a white police officer shoots a black gang member or beats up a black drug dealer running from the law and posing a threat to society, you call him a racist. 

I am proud...... But you call me a racist. 

Why is it that only whites can be racists?? 

This my kind of bumper stickers

2 photos say it all!

 These two photos say it all. Just look at the paraphernalia that Obama’s "aides" have to carry into a school in order for him to speak to a classroom of kids..... 

Still needs to have the podium, the teleprompters, the lights, the monitors, and the secret service guy in back to be on the look-out for any terrorist type 8 year olds with tea partying parents.

Here's what the last guy needed.
You remember...the dumb one.
