Finally
Finally Election 2008 is over. The world seems to be cheering America's choice for President with much fervor. Kenya in particular. Seems these people think that Obama, as President of the United States is going to step in and step up and bring an end to their multitude of problems.
Our country has been going to hell in a hand basket for too many years and other countries seem to think that they should come first? Personally, I think not. President elect Obama had better find the time to take care of his home base (the United States of America) before he decides that he needs to dedicate himself to the restoration of any other locations. Unless and until the problems of the U.S. are sorted out and rectified, I believe that the rest of the world should be put on notice that they are ON THEIR OWN.
Most of these hate the U.S. and badmouth it continually-UNTIL they are faced with droughts, starvation, natural disasters etc. We need to stop the giving until we have enough to keep ourselves solvent.
Too many in our country are in need of the a hand up for us to continue with handing out aid to other countries. So President elect Obama-remember allegiance to the people of the country that has chosen you as their Commander in Chief.

Victims of Ike in Texas?
Call me cynical or unfeeling but seeing the reports of people being rescued after deciding to NOT HEED official warnings to evacuate makes me wonder. Why call them victims when they chose to be where they are? The real victims as far as I can see are those that end of risking their lives by having to go in and find the "die hards" that choose to stay put. I think that if people are told that they should find shelter elsewhere should do so--or be charged a fee for their rescue. Not unlike having an ambulance take you to the hospital...
For the ones that chose to follow the warning and evacuate, help should be given to them FIRST, they are victims and should be helped. As far as the others, staying behind when forewarned? They should be aware that they choose and sometimes they lose.

9-11 Seven Years Later
September 11, 2008
It has been 7 years since the city of New York and our country woke up from our delusion of safety from outside attacks. I think most everyone remembers where they were when they heard the unbelievable news.
It was just an ordinary day, much like today is...
I can only wonder how many Americans today are finding themselves watching the skies and thinking of their loved ones a bit more than usual. Has the passing of time erased the feelings of fear and unease that permeated each of us on 09/11/2001?
If not for the news reminding us with stories of the remembrances being held in New York, Pennsylvania, and the Pentagon-would this have been just another "ordinary" day? I myself believe that in reality there will never be days that can be labeled as ordinary for those that lost loved ones that day, for those that worked the rescues and clean up after the towers fell.

The United States of America is not the safety zone it once was for us. Our eyes were opened to that horrible fact.
I believe that the result of that day still resides in the back of our minds today. As we hold our loved ones a bit closer and say I love you more often than before. Which is a very good thing.

America needs a President like this - A Man with Courage!
America needs a President like this
Prime Minister John Howard - Australia
Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on
Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.
Separately, Howard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques.
Quote: 'IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT. Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians'.
'This culture has been developed over two centuries of
struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom'. 'We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society .. Learn the language!'
'Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian,
right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.'
'We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and
peaceful enjoyment with us.'
'This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom,
'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'.'
'If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't
force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.'
Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves, American citizens will find the backbone to start speaking and voicing the
same truths.

Friday awakening
Good morning world of mine, such as you are. I sit here trying to "come to life" and wonder what the day will bring.
I am hoping for my stimulus check to arrive-but depending on the government to deliver when they say and what? Well, I think we all know not to get our hopes up too high! Although I could use that stimulation...
I am holding onto the good thought and the hope that a fluke has occurred and today's mail will contain that item of good tidings. Fingers crossed!
Hell, I need to get some gas in the car for crying out loud...have a great day.

WEDNESDAY WANDERINGS
Hmmmm after yesterdays political yackity yak, I am just taking my time getting ready for work and decided to pop in. Another gray and chilly day ahead-makes me glad that I will be working since nothing in the out of doors is beckoning me to do otherwise.
Checking out what could be a life saving opportunity for me in the financial arena of my life. If it works as it is laid out to, then I will be sharing it with friends as soon as I have a positive clue that it will do what it is supposed to do! Watch for updates here if you like.
Just in to say have a great day and I wish you all safety and joy in your lives.
