For God and Country Those of you who live in Vermont have a great Representative!
Finally ..... A Sensible Gun Registration Plan That Will Work
Vermont State Rep. Fred Maslack has read the Second Amendment to the U.S.Constitution, as well as Vermont 's own Constitution very carefully, and his strict interpretation of these documents is popping some eyeballs in New England and elsewhere.
Maslack recently proposed a bill to register "non-gun-owners" ; and require them to pay a $500 fee to the state. Thus Vermont would become the first state to require a permit for the luxury of going about unarmed and assess a fee of $500 for the privilege of not owning a gun.
Maslack read the "militia" phrase of the Second Amendment as not only affirming the right of the individual citizen to bear arms, but as a clear mandate to do so. He believes that universal gun ownership was advocated by the Framers of the Constitution as an antidote to a "monopoly of force" by the government as well as criminals.
Vermont 's constitution states explicitly that "the people have a right to bear arms for the defense of themselves and the State" and those persons who are "conscientiously scrupulous of bearing arms" shall be required to "pay such equivalent." Clearly, says Maslack, Vermonters have a constitutional obligation to arm themselves, so that they are capable of responding to "any situation that may arise."
Under the bill, adults who choose not to own a firearm would be required to register their name, address, Social Security Number, and driver's license number with the state. "There is a legitimate government interest in knowing who is not prepared to defend the state should they be asked to do so," Maslack says.
Vermont already boasts a high rate of gun ownership along with the least restrictive laws of any state .. it's currently the only state that allows a citizen to carry a concealed firearm without a permit. This combination of plenty of guns and few laws regulating them has resulted in a crime rate that is the third lowest in the nation.
" America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system, but too early to shoot the bastards."
This makes sense! There is no reason why gun owners should have to pay taxes to support police protection for people not wanting to own guns. Let them contribute their fair share and pay their own way.

_________________________ _________________________ _____ AN OPEN LETTER TO PRESIDENT OBAMA
Dear President Obama:
You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike any of the others, you truly scare me.
You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.
You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive Ivy League education, your upscale lifestyle and housing with no visible signs of support.
You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth growing up in America and culturally, you are not an American.
You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.
You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus don't understand it at its core.
You scare me because you lack humility and 'class', always blaming others.
You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail.
You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the 'blame America ' crowd and deliver this message abroad.
You scare me because you want to change America to a European style socialist country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.
You scare me because you want to replace our health care system with a government controlled one.
You scare me because you prefer 'wind mills' to responsibly capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.
You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of living in the world.
You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics against certain banks and corporations.
You scare me because your own political party shrinks from challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.
You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider opposing points of view from intelligent people.
You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both omnipotent and omniscient. You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything you do.
You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the Limbaugh's, Hannity's, O'Reilly's and Beck's who offer opposing, conservative points of view.
You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.
Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.
Deadlier than Cocaine, Heroin, and the Swine Flu? Dr. Mercola Addiction to prescription painkillers - which kill thousands of Americans a year - has become a largely unrecognized epidemic, experts say. In fact, prescription drugs cause most of the more than 26,000 fatal overdoses each year, says Leonard Paulozzi of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The number of overdose deaths from opioid painkillers - opium-like drugs that include morphine and codeine - more than tripled from 1999 to 2006, to 13,800 deaths that year, according to recently released CDC statistics.
In the past, most overdoses were due to illegal narcotics, such as heroin, with most deaths in big cities. Prescription painkillers have now surpassed heroin and cocaine however, as the leading cause of fatal overdoses, Paulozzi says.
Experts say it's easy to see why so many Americans are abusing painkillers. As Americans age and carry extra pounds, more are asking for pain relief to cope with joint problems, back pain and other ailments.
Commercial from the 50's...You won't believe this!
Killer diabetes drug Byetta has once again been linked to severe organ damage and death... and the FDA has once again made them (can you guess?) change the warning label.
Last year, it was increased risk of hemorrhagic pancreatitis (which caused several deaths) that got added to the label. This year, it's kidney problems - including 62 cases of acute kidney failure - which can be fatal.
What will it take for the FDA to stop messing around with the label and pull this dangerous drug from the market? I hope the answer isn't thousands of deaths.
The liberals are asking us to give Obama time. We agree and think 25 to life would be appropriate. **********************
America needs Obamacare like Nancy Pelosi needs a Halloween mask. **********************
Q: Have you heard about McDonalds new Obama Value Meal? A: Order anything you like and the guy behind you has to pay for it. **********************
Q: What does Barack Obama call lunch with a convicted felon? A: A fund raiser. **********************
Q: What do Vanilla Ice, Eminem and Barack Obama have in common? A: They all made careers pretending to be black men. **********************
Q: What's the difference between Obama's cabinet and a penitentiary? A: One is filled with tax evaders, blackmailers and threats to society. The other is for housing prisoners. ********************** Q: What's the difference between Simba and Obama? A: Simba is an African lion while Obama is a lyin African. **********************
On Halloween you put on a false face and trick people. This year Barack Obama is going as - Barack Obama. **********************
If Nancy Pelosi and Obama were on a boat in the middle of the ocean and It started to sink, who would be saved? .... America ! **********************
Q: What's the difference between Obama and his dog, Bo? A: Bo has papers.
The day finally arrived. Forrest Gump dies and goes to Heaven. He is met at the Pearly Gates, by St. Peter himself. However the gates are closed. St. Peter said, "Well it's certainly good to see you. We have heard a lot about you. I must tell you though, this place is filling up fast, and we have ben adminsitering an entrance examination for everyone. The test is short, but you have to pass it before you can get into Heaven." Forrest responds, "It sure is good to be here, St. Peter, Sir. But nobody ever told me about an entrance exam. I sure hope the test ain't too hard. Life was a big enough test to pass as it was." St. Peter continued, "Yes, I know Forrest, but the test is only three questions. First, what two days of the week begin with T? Second, How many seconds are there in a year? Third, What is God's name?" Forrest leaves to think the questions over. He returns the next day snd sees St. Peter, who waves him up to hear the answers. Forrest says,"Well the first one, which two days begins with the letter T? Shucks, that one is easy. That would be today and tomorrow." The Saint's eyes opened wide and he exclaimed, "Forrest, that is not what I was thinking, but you have a point, and I guess I did not specify, so I will give you credit for that answer. How about the next one?" "How many seconds in a year? Now that one is harder," replied Forrest,, "but I thunk and thunk about that, and I guess the only answer can be twelve." Astounded, St. Peter said, "Twelve? Forrest, how in Heavens name could you come up with twelve seconds in a year?" Forrest replied , "Shucks, there's got to be twelve: January 2nd, Feburary 2nd, March 2nd..." "Hold it, interrupts St. Peter, "I can see where you are going with this, and I see your point, though that wasn't quite what I had in mind ...But Iwill have to give you credit for that one, too. Let us go on to the third and final question. Can you tell me God's first name?" "Sure" Forrest replied, "it's Andy." "Andy? exclaimed an exasperated and frutrated St. Peter. "Shucks, said Forrest, That was the easiest one of all, I learnt it from the song, ANDY WALKS WITH ME, ANDY TALK WITH ME, ANDY TELLS ME I AM HIS OWN." St. Peter opened the Pearly Gates and said, "Run Forrest Run!"

US President AGAIN Bowing before foreigners!!! Embarrassing his host!!!!! The Significance Of The Bow: Obama Is A House Servant For The Global Elite President's body language proves his fealty to generationally inbred and racist royalty of the world The predictable response to criticism surrounding Obama’s botched bow to Emperor Akihito this weekend has been to claim that the outrage is a contrived creation of the political right-wing. However, the Japanese themselves are obviously just as embarrassed about the whole spectacle. Paul Joseph Watson Monday, November 16, 2009 The predictable response to criticism surrounding Obama’s botched bow to Emperor Akihito this weekend has been to claim that the outrage is a contrived creation of the political right-wing. However, the Japanese themselves are obviously just as embarrassed about the whole spectacle. Despite the fact that Obama was widely criticized for bowing to King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, an incident the White House ludicrously tried to deny even though it was plain as day on video, he again prostrated himself before royalty by awkwardly lurching forward at a near 90 degree angle to show his fealty to the Japanese Emperor and his wife at the Imperial Palace on Saturday. Top Japanese newspapers like Kyodo have refused to print the image out of embarrassment. Video footage of the entire exchange shows Obama profusely bowing like a house servant no less than seven times in the space of under 30 seconds. +++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++++++++++ And this is the Commander-In-Chief of our Armed Forces......... OUTRAGE!!!! The POTUS at Ft. Hood, Nov. 11, 2009..."honoring" the 14 dead (an unborn child...was the 14th!) at the hands of a Muslim home grown terrorist!!!

Weekly...or weakly Funny's How do you decide who to marry? a 10 year old lad was asked "You got to find somebody who likes the same stuff. Like, if you like sports, she should like it that you like sports, and she should keep the chips aNd dip coming."
The business man dragged himself home and barely made it to his chair before he dropped exhausted. His sympathetic wife was right there wilt a tall cool drink and a comforting word. "MY, you look tired," she said. "You must have had a hard day today. What happened to make you so exhausted?" "It was terrible," her husband said. "The computer broke down and we all had to do our own thinking!"
Arthur is 90 years old. He's played golf every day since his retirement 25 years ago. One day he arrives home looking downcast. "That's it," he tells his wife. I'm giving up golf. My eyesight has got so bad...Once I hit the ball, I can't see where it went." His wife sympathizes. As they sit down she says, "why don't you take my brother with you, and give it one more try?" "That's no good" sighs Arthur. "your brother is a hundred and three. He can't help." "He may be a hundred and three." says the wife, "but his eyesight is perfect!" So the next day Arthur heads off to the golf course with the brother in law. He tees up, takes a almighty swing and squints down the fairway. He turns to the brother in law. "Did you see the ball?" "Of course I did," says the brother in law. "I have perfect eyesight" "Where did it go? asks Arthur. "I can't remember."
