Request from our Soldiers - please help if you can


Request from our Soldiers on the front lines – let’s join together and send them these needed supplies.

Greetings! One of our Chaplains who just lost a Company Commander would like packages sent to his Soldiers at a COP that gets attacked daily.

There is no PX there and no way for Soldiers to buy anything.

There is also one female there.

They often ask for Copenhagen, toilet paper, baby wipes, sanitizer and sanitizer wipes, 4-blade razors, and shaving cream, canned goods, raviolis (the kind that peel open - and don't need a can opener) Gatorade singles, Crystal light single packets, cookies, body wash, deodorant, tuna fish packets - (and the kind that has mayo to make tuna salad), travel size toothpaste, chips (Doritos, cheetos, fritos etc), cheezits, mixed nuts, hot chocolate, ramen noodles, soups etc.

They also asked for a hot water boiler so they can make hot chocolate and other things that just need water added. And that reminds me, they also like the mac and cheese bowls and hamburger helper bowls.

It's going to get cold and these guys are in the middle of nowhere with bad guys everywhere. In fact the company commander was killed by gunfire last week.

Please pray for CPT Nehl's family and the other Soldiers of D Co 2-16 IN. The company commander before him, CPT Cowan, was shot and medevac'd back to the states last month.

Thanks for all the support!! These Soldiers will love it!!!

The address is:

Blessings!!!!

Navy Seals Furious With Obama




"The SEALs removed one threat to America, now it's time for the voters to remove the other." - Retired Navy SEAL Brad Nagel
Former Navy SEALs Brad Nagel, Scott Taylor, Ryan Zinke and Benjamin Smith in Veterans for a Strong America's expose.
Veterans for a Strong America has filmed a shocking interview with Navy SEALs who tell the TRUTH about the Obama Administration and the incredible danger it poses to America.

These guys know the facts. They were silenced by their service. But they refuse to remain quiet any longer. The stakes are simply too high.

"Obama's love affair with the Muslim Brotherhood poses a clear and present danger to America, but worst of all are the lies and failure to act, especially in Benghazi, that got my buddies KILLED," says Brad Nagel, 20 year Navy veteran and former SEAL.

Newly released emails indicate that the Obama White House KNEW WITHIN 30 MINUTES of the initial uprising that the American Embassy in Benghazi was under full terrorist attack. An American drone reportedly sent the State Department situation room real time footage of the jihadist assault. As State Department officials watched the bloody, clearly pre-planned and well organized attack unfold; our Commander in Chief refused to take action. It has been further reported that instead of staying in the situation room, the President retired to his quarters for an early bed time, leaving horrified State Department personnel alone with the live feed horrors from Benghazi.

Of the four killed during that 7 hour battle, 2 of the people died in the final hour. Ty Woods, a former SEAL teammate of Nagel's was one of the last to die. "Ty ran his weapon dry and killed 50 jihadists before he was taken down. If this Administration had used the intel they had and sent help, my friend might still be alive" said Nagel.

Other SEALs are just as furious with Obama.

"If Obama sent Ambassador Stephens to a death sentence mission in Benghazi; what will he be willing to do to the American people to appease what appear to be deep Muslim 
Brotherhood ties?" - asked former Navy SEAL Benjamin Smith.

We were silenced during our years in the service. But the oath we took to protect and defend the Constitution DEMANDS that we speak out now, to protect America.

For America,

Joel Arends

Did You Know ?


Did you know that if you sell your house after 2012 you will pay a 3.8% sales tax on it? That's $3,800 on a $100,000 home, etc. When did this happen? It's in the health care bill, -- and it goes into effect in 2013. Why 2013? Could it be so that it doesn’t come to light until after the 2012 elections?
 
So, this is ‘ change you can believe in’? Under the new health care bill all real estate transactions will be subject to a 3.8% federal sales tax. If you sell a $400,000 home, there will be a $15,200 tax.
 
This bill is set to screw the retiring generation, -- who often downsize their homes. Does this make your November, 2012 vote more important? Oh, you weren't aware that this was in the Obama Health Care bill? Guess what; you aren't alone! There are more than a few members of Congress that weren't aware of it either. You can check this out for yourself at: http://www.gop.gov/blog/10/04/08/obamacare-flatlines-obamacare-taxes-home
 
I hope you forward this. VOTERS NEED TO KNOW.......and PLEASE VOTE!!!

 This belongs in the EMAIL HALL OF FAME
How's this for apocalyptic literature.

This was written by a pastor's wife in biblical prose as a commentary of current events. It is brilliant.

And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land Called America , having lost their morals, their initiative, and their Will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that Person known as "The One."


He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning;  
but He Hypnotized the people telling them, "I am sent to save you."

My lack of experience, my questionable ethics, my monstrous ego, and my Association with evil doers are of no consequence.  I shall save you with Hope and Change.

Go, therefore, and proclaim throughout the Land that he who preceded me is evil, that he has defiled the nation, and that all he has built must be destroyed.

And the people rejoiced, for even though they knew not what "The One" would do, he had promised that it was good; and they believed.

And "The One" said " We live in The greatest country in the world. Help me change everything about it!"

And the people said, "Hallelujah! Change is good!"

Then He said, "We are going to tax the rich fat-cats."

And the People said "Sock it to them!" "And redistribute their wealth."

And the people said, "Show us the money!"

And the he said, "Redistribution of wealth is good for everybody.."

And Joe the plumber asked, "Are you kidding me?  
You're going to Steal my money and give it to the deadbeats??"

And "The One" ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe's personal records were hacked and publicized.

One lone reporter asked, "Isn't that Marxist policy?"

And she was banished from the kingdom.


Then a citizen asked, "With no foreign relations experience and having 
zero military experience or knowledge, how will you deal with Radical terrorists?"

And "The One" said, "Simple. I shall sit with them and talk with them and show them how nice we really are; and they will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!"

And the people said, "Hallelujah!! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons Into free cars for the people!"

Then "The One" said "I shall give 95% of you lower taxes."

And one, Lone voice said, "But 49% of us don't pay ANY taxes.

"So "The One" Said, "Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!"

And the people said, "Hallelujah! Show us the money!"

Then "The One" said, "I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell your homes!"

And the people yawned and the slumping housing market collapsed.

And He said. "I shall mandate employer-funded health care for every worker and raise the minimum wage.  And I shall give every Person unlimited healthcare and medicine and transportation to the Clinics."

(And no Muslim shall pay for their share of healthcare.)

And the people said, "Give me some of that!"

Then he said, "I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas."
And the people said, "Where's my rebate check?"
Then "The One" said, "I shall bankrupt the coal industry and
Electricity rates will skyrocket!"

And the people said, "Coal is dirty, coal is evil, no more coal!
But we don't care for that part about higher electric rates.

So "The One" said, “Not to worry. If Your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out.  Just sign up with the ACORN and you troubles are over!"

Then He said, "Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted.
Let's grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches, Free medical care, bilingual signs and guaranteed housing...

" And the people said, "Hallelujah!" and they made him king!

And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and ever-higher taxes, 
raised their prices and laid off workers. Others simply gave up and went out of business
and the economy sank like unto a rock dropped from a cliff.
The banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a crawl.



 and more of the people were without a means of support.

Then "The One" said, "I am the "the One"- The Messiah – and I'm here To save you!  
We shall just print more money so everyone will have enough!"

But our foreign trading partners said unto Him. "Wait a Minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have to pay more...

And "The One" said, "Wait a minute. That is unfair!!"

And the world said, "Neither are these other idiotic programs you have embraced.   Lo, you have become a Socialist state and a second-rate power.  Now you shall play by our rules!"

And the people cried out, "Alas, alas!! What have we done?"
But yea, verily, it was too late.

The people set upon The One and spat upon him and stoned him, and his name was dung. And the once mighty nation was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or shelter or hope.

And the Change "The One" had given them was as like unto a poison that had destroyed them and like a whirlwind that consumed all that they had built.

And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish, 
"Give us back our nation and our pride and our hope!!"


But it was too late, and their homeland was no more.

You may think this a fairy tale, but it's not. It's happening RIGHT NOW


THIS really tells it like it is.
After reading it -- and before you go into the bathroom to throw-up – forward it to your friends and those you know who care about our country and what is happening to it under the rule of Commissar Obamanation.

P.S. --
Yeah, this is too true to be funny.. Tragic, but not funny; 
Tragic but true.

IF YOU CAN'T SEE THIS HAPPENING.... JUST RUB YOUR EYES AND BLINK A FEW MORE TIMES REALLY HARD.

A message from Blue Cross Blue Shield

 A message from Blue Cross Blue Shield

MEDICARE
Look clearly at the 2014 rate compared to the 2013 rate.

For those of you who are on Medicare, read the following. It's short, but important and you probably haven't heard about it in the Mainstream News:

"The per person Medicare Insurance Premium is on the increase as per Obamacare....... 2010 & 2011 

Monthly Fee of $96.40 on the rise and this is not newsworthy by the mainstream news groups :

$104.20 in 2012

$120.20 in 2013

        And

$247.00 in 2014." 

These are Previsions incorporated in the Obamacare Legislation, purposely delayed so as not to confuse the 2012 Re-Election Campaigns. 

Send this to all Seniors that you know, so they will know who's throwing them under the bus.

This ia a MONTHLY FEE  AND THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE THE COST OF YOUR SUPPLEMENTAL INSURANCE

Mexico is Angry


Mexico is angry......

Wow! And make certain you read, at the bottom of this page, the part that says it will take 30 more seconds to read!!! This is what needs to be done, in my opinion! 

Please forward to all you know and ask them to forward to all they know. Maybe, together, we can make this happen!

The shoe is on the other foot and the Mexicans from the State of Sonora , Mexico do not like it. Can you believe the nerve of these people? It's almost funny. The State of Sonora is angry at the influx of Mexicans into Mexico !!!

Nine state legislators from the Mexican State of Sonora traveled to Tucson to complain about Arizona 's new employer crackdown on illegals from Mexico . It seems that many Mexican illegals are returning to their hometowns and the officials in the Sonora state government are ticked off. A delegation of nine state legislators from Sonora was in Tucson on Tuesday to state that Arizona 's new 'Employer Sanctions Law' will have a devastating effect on the Mexican state. At a news conference, the legislators said that Sonora, - Arizona's southern neighbor - made up of mostly small towns - can not handle the demand for housing, jobs and schools that it will face as Mexican workers return to their hometowns from the USA without jobs or money.

The Arizona law, which took effect Jan. 1, punishes Arizona employers who knowingly hire individuals without valid legal documents to work in the United States . Penalties include suspension of, or loss of, their business license. The Mexican legislators are angry because their own citizens are returning to their hometowns, placing a burden on THEIR state government.

'How can Arizona pass a law like this?' asked Mexican Rep Leticia Amparano-Gamez, who represents Nogales . 'There is not one person living in Sonora who does not have a friend or relative working in Arizona ,' she said, speaking in Spanish. 'Mexico is not prepared for this, for the tremendous problems it will face as more and more Mexicans working in Arizona and who were sending money to their families return to their hometowns in Sonora without jobs,' she said 'We are one family, socially and economically,' she said of the people of Sonora and Arizona .

Wrong! The United States is a sovereign nation, not a subsidiary of Mexico , and its taxpayers are not responsible for the welfare of Mexico 's citizens. It's time for the Mexican government, and its citizens, to stop feeding parasitically off the United States and to start taking care of its/their own needs.

Too bad that other states within the USA don't pass a law just like that passed by Arizona . Maybe that's the answer, since our own Congress will do nothing!

***New Immigration Laws***

Be sure to read to the bottom or you will miss the message...

1. There will be no special bilingual programs in the schools.


2. All ballots will be in this nation's language.


3. All government business will be conducted in our language.


4. Non-residents will NOT have the right to vote no matter how long they are here.

5. Non-citizens will NEVER be able to hold political office.


6. Foreigners will not be a burden to the taxpayers. No welfare, no food stamps, no health care, or other government assistance programs. Any burden will be deported.

7. Foreigners can invest in this country, but it must be an amount at least equal to 40,000 times the daily minimum wage.


8. If foreigners come here and buy land... options will be restricted. Certain parcels including waterfront property are reserved for citizens naturally born into this country.

9. Foreigners may have NO protests; NO demonstrations, NO waving of a foreign flag, no political organizing, NO bad-mouthing our president or his policies. These will lead to deportation.


10. If you do come to this country illegally, you will be actively hunted and, when caught, sent to jail until your deportation can be arranged. All assets will be taken from you.

Too strict?
The above laws are current immigration laws of MEXICO !

This will take less than thirty seconds to read. If you agree, please pass it on. An idea whose time has come: Somehow, that doesn't seem logical. We do not have an elite that is above the law. The self-serving must stop. This is a good way to do that. It is an idea whose time has come. Have each person contact a minimum of twenty people on their address list, in turn ask each of those to do likewise.

In three days, most people in The United States of America will have read the message. This is one proposal that really should be passed around.

***Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution***

"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to all members of Congress, Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to all members of Congress, Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States.

You are one of my 20.  If you don't have twenty, pass it on to whatever number you can!

The President is a King


The President Is A King

September 27, 2012 by  
After years of bristling under the rule of a monarchy, Americans were loath to create another. Antifederalist Philadelphiensis warned that the U.S. Constitution was creating an executive with even more power than a king.
In Antifederalist 74 he wrote: “[T]hat the President is a King to all intents and purposes, and at the same time one of the most dangerous kind too — an elective King, the commander in chief of a standing army, etc. And to those add, that he has a negative power over the proceedings of both branches of the legislature. And to complete his uncontrolled sway, he is neither restrained nor assisted by a privy council, which is a novelty in government. I challenge the politicians of the whole continent to find in any period of history a monarch more absolute.”
Now we have perpetual war, a growing Homeland Security apparatus that has compiled enough ammunition to shoot every American five times over and a President who ignores Congress and rules by executive order. It seems Philadelphiensis had it right.

New rules make it easier for ATF to seize guns without due process


New rulesmake it easier for ATF to seize guns without due process

The Justice Department granted power to the ATF to seize guns without due process in substance abuse cases.

The Obama administration, apparently by executive decree, has enacted new rules that make it easier for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) to seize the guns of citizens without due process of law. A Washington Times report issued on Thursday provides the details.

Under normal circumstances a citizen must be convicted of a crime, or at least charged with a crime, in order for law enforcement to seize their firearms. But the Justice Department granted authority to the ATF to "seize and administratively forfeit property involved in controlled substance abuses."

According to the Times, this gives the federal government the power to seize the guns of citizens even if they are merely suspected of substance abuse. These citizens do not have to be officially charged or arrested.

Due process of law, under the mandate of the U.S. Constitution, requires among other things that citizens have rights that cannot be violated even if they are suspected of crimes. Historically this has meant that citizens who are not charged but are mere suspects cannot be deprived of any of the rights afforded to any other citizen. And even if they are charged with crimes, they still have certain rights that cannot be violated, such as the right to a fair trial, the right to face one's accusers in a court of law, and the right to qualified legal counsel. Any violation of that person's rights after they are charged must be done according to accepted legal process and not on the whims of prosecutors or law enforcement.

But prior to formal charges being issued, the government has operated under the restrictions placed upon it by the Constitution that prevent it from treating citizens as if they are charged prior to actually being charged with crimes.

Gradually these time honored mandates have been under assault as law enforcement has skirted the boundaries of the law by engaging in activity that violates both the spirit and letter of due process. The assault kicked into high gear after the 9/11 terror attacks.

But civil forfeiture of property is a dangerous new step in the assault on due process in that citizens can be deprived of their property, as well as their rights, even if it is never proved that they committed a crime.

The concept behind civil forfeiture of property is simple but baffling. Inanimate objects are placed on trial and treated as persons. And since objects have no rights, prosecutors can simply dispense with constitutional rights in these trials. 

But the citizen or citizens who are caught in the crosshairs are considered guilty until proven innocent and are burdened with the task of proving their innocence.
In the meantime such citizens are deprived of their Second Amendment rights. 

And all of this comes as the ATF and the Justice Department operate under a heavy cloud of suspicion in the wake of the biggest political scandal in U.S. history -- Operation Fast and Furious.
