Gitmo Detainees
January 26, 2009 – 12:24 am
The simple solution of what to do with the Gitmo detainees is to relocate them to San Francisco. The majority of the people in San Francisco probably consider the detainees to be Freedom Fighters and Political Prisoners therefore they should welcome them with open arms.
I think they would be great “Grand Marshall’s” for the next Gay Pride parade.
Question For Obama Supporters

What Really Happened to Social Security
April 7, 2008 – 11:46 pm
Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social
Security (FICA) Program. He promised:
1.) That participation in the Program would be
completely voluntary,
2.) That the participants would only have to pay
1% of the first $1,400 of their annual
incomes into the Program,
3.) That the money the participants elected to put
into the Program would be deductible from
their income for tax purposes each year,
4.) That the money the participants put into the
independent ‘Trust Fund’ rather than into the
General operating fund, and therefore, would
only be used to fund the Social Security
Retirement Program, and no other
Government program, and,
5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.
——————————
————————————-
Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are
now receiving a Social Security check every month –
and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of
the money we paid to the Federal government to ‘put
away’ — you may be interested in the following:
————————————————————-
Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the
independent ‘Trust Fund’ and put it into the
General fund so that Congress could spend it?
A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically
controlled House and Senate.
——————————————————————–
Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax
deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?
A: The Democratic Party.
———————————————————————–
Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social
Security annuities????
A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore casting the
‘tie-breaking’ deciding vote, as President of the
Senate, while he was Vice President of the USA.
——————————————————————-
Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving
annuity payments to immigrants?
This is MY FAVORITE:
A: That’s right! Jimmy Carter! And the Democratic Party of course!
Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65,
began to receive Social Security payments! The
Democratic Party gave these payments to them,
even though they never paid a dime into it!
————————– ——————————————–
Then, after doing all this lying and thieving and violating
of the original contract (FICA), the Democrats
turn around and tell you that the Republicans
want to take your Social Security away!
And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!
Joke of the Year
January 12, 2008 – 8:58 pm
This was nominated for best joke of the year – worth sharing.
A Somalian arrives in Minneapolis as a new immigrant to the United States.
He stops the first person he sees walking down the street and says, “Thank you Mr. American for letting me in this country , giving me housing, food stamps, free medical care, and free education!” The passerby says, “You are mistaken, I am Mexican.”
The man goes on and encounters another passerby.
” Thank you for having such a beautiful country here in America !” The person says,
“I not American, I Vietnamese.”
The new arrival walks further, and the next person he sees he stops, shakes his hand and says,
“Thank you for the wonderful America!
“That person puts up his hand and says,
“I am from Middle East , I am not American!”
He finally sees a nice lady and asks,
“Are you an American?”
She says, “No, I am from Africa !”
Puzzled, he asks her,
“Where are all the Americans?”
The African lady checks her watch and says…
“Probably at work!!!!!!!

Free Speech?
September 27, 2007 – 11:09 pm
The basic problem is that America’s liberals no longer really believe in free speech for any but themselves. Members of Congress go around threatening to criminalize global warming “deniers”; the management of The New York Times leads the charge to pass restrictive campaign finance reforms outlawing advocacy speech and then violates the very laws they sought for the benefit of their left-wing allies, all while seeking to shut down “right-wing talk radio” because they find themselves unable to compete with the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity.
Christians and Jews are discouraged from even mentioning their religious views on many campuses and in most public schools, lest by doing so they offend non-believers or those who find their religious views offensive, but we are urged to listen carefully to those who attack their religions lest we appear close-minded or bigoted. We have created in our drive for “political correctness” an elite society that encourages those who want to shut up their opponents for saying things they don’t like.
The Founders would, I suspect, have been shocked by the direction in which we are moving, because it is clear that those who cannot win a debate in the public arena are doing here what they have done elsewhere with great success: restricting access to the arena to those with whom they disagree.
