God Bless Us Everyone-Thanks Tiny Tim
God Bless Adam and my family-all of my family. What they have had to endure at the hand of an unstable wife and mother almost causes an insanity in itself.
For all my life, I have been in a war, if you will, with myself. Although thankfully I have caused no bloodshed, I have caused a lot of suffering. In my younger days, for a school assignment, I read a story of how a man is only free when he has destroyed his inner demons-what the author forgot to put in there was how long the fighting or war would persist.
It is my belief that Adam and some of my other family members must think I make things up of the unbelievable based on the fact that I probably do only have a few “marbles’” rolling around here and there.
Something is different about me..I possess a quality of a sense that others may not have. Because of my “sensing”, I am being punished by a demon that cannot be freed no matter how hard I try.
No, I am not possessed by some demon like you might find in exorcisms, but he or it is still there.
As a young child, I had the best and worst of everything. I went to only private schools-only until my 10th grade year had I left the “private” sector. Everyday was a torture to live another brutal day in “weak-minded” society-I can’t even begin to tell you about the name-calling and alienation caused by heartless other kids, all because I wasn’t a string bean pole. I was treated as if I had leprosy.
I don’t know why I didn’t tell a teacher or my mom about the bullying. I figured that each day might get a little better, but sadly, things only got worse. It continued on until, like I said, I left the “private” sector. It is amazing how much better one can be treated when not in the presence of rich kids.
Because of my youth, which I will always blame-I am who I am-I can’t even begin to tell a story of lowest self-esteem. I don’t even know what I look like anymore-society has put numbers and scales to tell us how imperfect we are. Duh, I already knew that.
My own personal war isn’t always about not being a string bean. I battle everyday with fear that consumes me. Man cannot make enough drugs for my condition. “Hey doc, gotta pill that can expunge all of the bad energy?” I didn’t think so.
I feel like Satan is always trying at his best to make curse God and die, in a sense, of course. He makes attacks at family, and if I had many friends, he would seek them out too. He needs me because of my powers, but he will not win. It is in times of pain that I turn to God, not to hate, or Satan, or some other demonic force. This doesn’t make anything easy to come by, and it never will.
So Popeye, I am what I am and I had better get used to that. One day the Heavens and all of God’s glory will make me understand what it was all about.
So again, I thank my family for holding on and not giving me the boot.
One day God will pull me out of the darkness and help me see the lighted clearing. I am remembering that story again…here is the rest of it..it should make sense now:
All honor then to that brave heart
Though poor or rich he be
Who struggles with his baser part
Who conquers and is free
He may not wear a hero’s crown
Or nil a hero’s grave
But truth will place his name among
The bravest of the brave
Thanks Charles J. Barnes, circa late 1800′s.
May God Bless you as well.

Some one who really deserved the Nobel Peace Prize
http://www.snopes.com/politics/war/sendler.aspIrena Sendler
There recently was a death of a 98 year-old lady named Irena. During WWII, Irena, got permission to work in the Warsaw Ghetto, as a Plumbing/Sewer specialist. She had an ‘ulterior motive’ … She KNEW what the Nazi’s plans were for the Jews, (being German.) Irena smuggled infants out in the bottom of the tool box she carried and she carried in the back of her truck a burlap sack, (for larger kids..) She also had a dog in the back that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her in and out of the ghetto. The soldiers of course wanted nothing to do with the dog and the barking covered the kids/infants noises.. During her time of doing this, she managed to smuggle out and save 2500 kids/infants. She was caught, and the Nazi’s broke both her legs, arms and beat her severely. Irena kept a record of the names of all the kids she smuggled out and kept them in a glass jar, buried under a tree in her back yard. After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may have survived it and reunited the family. Most had been gassed. Those kids she helped got placed into foster family homes or adopted.
In 1998 Irena was up for the Nobel Peace Prize . She was not selected.
Al Gore won, for a slide show on Global Warming.
Powerful message, especially the “cartoon.” Let us never forget!

AMERICA NEEDS A CANDIDATE WITH THIS PLATFORM!!
I love sentements of this, but with my7 usualfact checking I have found it to be a fack. If I knew who really wrote this I might vote for them. I might also run for president with this platform myself, but I think I might just be a bit too honest for politics.
http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/platform.asp
Bill Cosby has a great way of “distilling” things. Looks like he’s done it again!
AMERICA NEEDS A CANDIDATE WITH THIS PLATFORM!!
I HAVE DECIDED TO BECOME A WRITE-IN CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT IN THE YEAR 2012.
HERE IS MY PLATFORM:
(1) Any use of the phrase: ‘Press 1 for English’ is immediately banned. English is the official language; speak it or wait outside of our borders until you can.
(2) We will immediately go into a two year isolationist attitude in order to straighten out the greedy big business posture in this country. America will allow NO imports, and we’ll do no exports. We will use the ‘Wal-Mart ‘s policy, ‘If we ain’t got it, you don’t need it.’ We’ll make it here and sell it here!
(3) When imports are allowed, there will be a 100% import tax on it coming in here.
(4) All retired military personnel will be required to man one of the many observation towers located on the southern border of the United States (six month tour). They will be under strict orders not to fire on SOUTHBOUND aliens.
(5) Social Security will immediately return to its original state. If you didn’t put nuttin in, you ain’t gettin nuttin out. Neither the President nor any other politician will be able to touch it.
(6) Welfare. Checks will be handed out on Fridays, at the end of the 40 hour school week, the successful completion of a urinalysis test for drugs, and passing grades.
(7) Professional Athletes — Steroids? The FIRST time you check positive you’re banned from sports … for life.
(8) Crime: We will adopt the Turkish method, i.e., the first time you steal, you lose your right hand. There is no more ‘life sentences’. If convicted of murder, you will be put to death by the same method you chose for the victim you killed: gun, knife, strangulation, etc.
(9) One export of ours will be allowed: wheat; because the world needs to eat. However, a bushel of wheat will be the exact price of a barrel of oil.
(10) All foreign aid, using American taxpayer money, will immediately cease and the saved money will help to pay off the national debt and, ultimately, lower taxes.. When disasters occur around the world, we’ll ask The American People if they want to donate to a disaster fund, and each citizen can make the decision as to whether, or not, it’s a worthy cause.
(11) The Pledge of Allegiance will be said every day at school and every day in Congress.
(12) The National Anthem will be played at all appropriate ceremonies, sporting events, outings, etc.
My apology is offered if I’ve stepped on anyone’s toes ….. nevertheless……
GOD BLESS AMERICA.
Sincerely, Bill Cosby
Please forward this to everyone you know, no matter which side of the fence they’re on.

The American Flag Banned
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,566341,00.html?test=latestnews
An Apartment Complex in Oregon has ban the flying of the American Flag on dwellings and cars. The reason given for the ban was that people might get offended. Well guess what; if you are offended by the American Flag get the hell out of America.
The only rule against flying the flag that I could understand would be not mounting a flag pole on the building. It is a common rule within apartment to not allow mounting items to walls or fences. If I can set up a satellite dish in the yard out side my window, I should be allowed to plant a flag pole in the same spot.
I also do not feel the apartment complex has any right to say weather a flag can be flown on a privately owned vehicle. The cars and motor cycles are not their property and should not be viewed as such. I will fly what ever I want on my car, weather it is a flag or a flag magnet.
We are Americans; you will not see other countries disallowing their flag within residential areas for fear of offending some one. Why are Americans so afraid of being proud to be an American? Be proud and fly your flag.
If I was living at that complex I would get evicted when I heard this new rule. As soon as it was put out that the American Flag was not allowed to be flown, one would be placed on each of my cars, within my apartment windows and anywhere else I could get them up.
This is wrong and should not be allowed by law. Flying the American Flag should be look on as good, not as a threat to the establishment where it is seen.
Update:
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,566740,00.html?test=latestnews
Flag ban was overturned when the Complex owner got national media attention for the ban. I don’t know weather to be pleased that it was overturned, or be appoled by the fact that the owner did not stick to her position.
Fly your Flag, its your right.

A man for Peace by war?
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/10/13/iran-plan-b-wants-bunker-buster-fast/
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,564921,00.html?test=latestnews
The man claiming to be the leader of the American administration, who won the Noble Peace Prize, is quickly funding wars with U.S. tax payer money. He started out his career as President on a highly ambitious “World Peace†crusade. With Promises to pull our Military out of Iraq, peace talks with Muslim nations. He publicly denounced our nation’s Christian heritage, and proclaimed the U.S. the world’s largest Muslim nation.
He alienated out Israel align by siding with the Palestinians. Now not even the Palestinian leaders have faith in his Promises. They have seen him back-peddle on their key issues.
He has prompted Iran into admitting to having nuclear development that could be used to make weapon. Now we see this ‘Man for Peace†and his administration planning on Bombing Iran if they do not comply with our demands. This came months after he announced on International television, that America will not stand for stronger Counties “Bullying†weaker ones.
This man has campaign his entire career. Now it looks as if he has forgotten his early speeches and promises. It looks as if many in our nation who were duped into the “Hope and Change†band-wagon are begging to see the truth.
I do not contest all of his actions, but one does need to be more truthful about his plans. He talks about Peace and equality, and funds the ongoing war and instigates more animosity toward America.
Are Americans not watching what our “Leader†is doing? Are we blinded by the hype? Can we not see what is happening to our Nation and the world?
Our nation and the American people need to put the Presidential position back in the seat of its power. The President of our nation has the power to Veto bills. That is the power he was granted in the constitution, not the power to declare America a Muslim nation. He is not a Miracle happening to our nation. He is a man that was voted into a seat of power on promises that he can not fulfill. He does not deserve rewards for giving people hope for peace while he fosters wars with other nations.
He is just a man, not a god. Reward him for what he has accomplished, not what he might. No other president was rewarded until after they had made a real impact on the world. All he has done to this day is put our nation farther into debit faster then any president before him. It is not his money he is spending to fund the tax credits, healthcare reform, or any other proposed bill that he thinks this nation needs. It is your tax dollar he is spending.
Does he really care about America, or is he just padding his presidential retirement with the awards he has not truly earned?
