When others express so eloquently what is in our hearts then there is only one thing to do... spread their word. I love Ben Stein! He is an awesome American and his words ring true! I was sent this article by my dear friend since I came to the USA, Louise Freeman:

Why is President Barack Obama in such a hurry to get his socialized medicine bill passed?
Because he and his cunning circle realize some basic truths:
The American people in their unimaginable kindness and trust voted for a pig in a poke in 2008. They wanted so much to believe Barack Obama was somehow better and different from other ultra-leftists that they simply took him on faith.
They ignored his anti-white writings in his books. They ignored his quiet acceptance of hysterical anti-American diatribes by his minister, Jeremiah Wright.
They ignored his refusal to explain years at a time of his life as a student. They ignored his ultra-left record as a "community organizer," Illinois state legislator, and Senator. The American people ignored his total zero of an academic record as a student and teacher, his complete lack of scholarship when he was being touted as a scholar.
Now, the American people are starting to wake up to the truth. Barack Obama is a super likeable super leftist, not a fan of this country, way, way too cozy with the terrorist leaders in the Middle East, way beyond naïveté, all the way into active destruction of our interests and our allies and our future.
The American people have already awakened to the truth that the stimulus bill -- a great idea in theory -- was really an immense bribe to Democrat interest groups, and in no way an effort to help all Americans.
Now, Americans are waking up to the truth that ObamaCare basically means that every time you are sick or injured, you will have a clerk from the Department of Motor Vehicles telling your doctor what he can and cannot do.
The American people already know that Mr. Obama's plan to lower health costs while expanding coverage and bureaucracy is a myth, a promise of something that never was and never will be -- a bureaucracy lowering costs in a free society. Either the costs go up or the free society goes away.
These are perilous times. Mrs. Hillary Clinton, our Secretary of State, has given Iran the go-ahead to have nuclear weapons, an unqualified betrayal of the nation. Now, we face a devastating loss of freedom at home in health care. It will be joined by controls on our lives to "protect us" from global warming, itself largely a fraud if believed to be caused by man.
Mr. Obama knows Americans are getting wise and will stop him if he delays at all in taking away our freedoms.
There is his urgency and our opportunity. Once freedom is lost, America is lost. Wake up, beloved America.

A NATION IN DISTRESS... SANITY AT LAST?
After pushing through an $857 billion dollar spending bill, taking over the major banks and 2 of the big 3 auto makers all in just over 100 days it seems that sanity may have actually returned to Congress.
As Obama’s popularity falls, Democrats are feeling less like goose stepping to the President's orders and more like listening to their constituents. After all these are the people who elected them and if these people no longer agree with Obama then continuing to support his programs will surly spell an end to their political careers.
The proverbial straw in this case is healthcare reform. Obama has been pushing for a quick passage of his plan ,setting an August 7th deadline for Congress to act.
The reason for this push has nothing to do with how much Obama cares about his fellow Americans. He doesn’t want Senators and Representatives going home for the August break and hearing from the voters about how much they dislike this proposal. The more negative input they get the less likely they are to vote for this plan.
Another reason is that with midterm elections on the horizon and his popularity on a downward slide Obama’s ability to polarize Congress and get the Democrats to stand behind him on more of these ridiculous spending plans is going away fast.
As more Americans are becoming aware of the waste in the "Stimulus Package" and the economy continues to drag midterm elections and the reemergence of conservative Democrats hold at least a glimmer of hope that we will be able to weather the storm caused by Obama, Pelosi and the rest of the tax and spend gang.

FEMA (NLE09) Exercise in late July '09, is it compromising our national security?
NLE 09 FEMA Exercise:
http://www.fema.gov/media/fact_sheets/nle09.shtm
White House - DIRECTED, Congressionally - MANDATED
I think we all need to take a good look at this, I am having some issues with this, I mean this is a big deal! Basically we are showing these four countries how, what, where, and when. The WHERE is AR, LA, OK, TX, & NM!!!!
This is not a normal exercise:
"National Level Exercise 2009 (NLE 09) is scheduled for July 27 through July 31, 2009. NLE 09 will be the first major exercise conducted by the United States government that will focus exclusively on terrorism prevention and protection, as opposed to incident response and recovery." This means that we will share information conscerning our domestic information dissemination protocols and mitigation in the prevention and protection of our nation against terrorism with a foreign presence and participation in this exercise!
I was doing my normal surfing the Twitter and Blogosphere and I came across this, I mean c'mon! This is scary!!!! I want you to particularly look at the wording in the 1st and 3rd paragraph on the FEMA LINK ABOVE, then look at the states they have chosen and the countries that will participate. READ IT PLEASE!!!! What this says is the US Gov is bringing in military and intelligence agents from Australia, Canada, Mexico and the United Kingdom. The FOCUS:
"NLE 09 will focus on intelligence and information sharing among intelligence and law enforcement communities, and between international, federal, regional, state, tribal, local and private sector participants."
Geez, why don't we just give them our missile codes for crying out loud!!!! How do they know the parties participating can be ENTRUSTED with this information, and Mexico!!!!
Mexico doesn't even respect our national border!!!!!
You tell me what you think!!!!
