Awaken

Country that I love, awaken. This is not play time. Our nation

was founded on Godly principles, truly. There is a reason

why we have enjoyed what we have here. ONE NATION UNDER GOD, yes the USA, has been blessed because of its beginning. THERE is NOW great threat to every

freedom we have enjoyed being taken over by our government

to the degree that LAWLESSNESS is trying to be legitimized. It is not the wealthy that are our enemies. It is those who would

take everything we WHO ARE AMERICANS hold sacred. WE HUMBLY say no...Divided, there is only one banner we can rally under

and it is not a man who holds the key to healing the soul of this nation. BTW, Not everything reported in media

holds true integrity. We need to pray to the one true God, Creator.

democratic party

Do you really beleive Mr. Obama is for the people of this country? my friends this whole plot has been in the makeing for years, this is an absolute take over of our society! people use the word control very often but I'm telling you it runs much deeper than that, it's also about extreme wealth, power and domination. the democratic party are oportunists, they will sieze every moment and situation as a means to there end they will also go whichever way the wind blows as long as it suits there needs. People mistakeingly see the democrates as the party of the poor, the minorities the hopless and helpless, civil rights activists etc.. the fact is the republican party are the ones that put a stop to slavery!! these people are useing minorities (Hispanic illegals]and have been for decades they are useing them for a voting base promising them everything under the sun and it appears it has worked. Ounce they achieve power absolute these people will be left in the dust. to achieve this power and control they must take control of our industrial might and finally our healthcare system, ounce they have that they have evrything, there is no going back, that's why there is such a feverish fight going on soon we all will live and breath for the government! make no mistake about it, there goal is to obtain unimaginable wealth and power for the few, not you, unless they are stopped!! Is it just a bad mistake they did not use 100% of the stimulous money to put people back to work now? No, they need the unemployed to create a need, you loose your job you loose your health insurance!! OH! yes I suddenly need the public healthcare option! You might reflect back on this letter 10 years from now.

Obama's Friends and Foes

Just use the "Union" and "Non-Union" concept to get the answer or, use the "Union" and "Confederate" setup to get the answer. There are "two" ally's that have different ideas about how they should CONTROL the American citizens and How they will take our money, the concept is really easy to figure out. Why is it so hard for everyone to understand? Look back at America's history and one should see how "Controlling" these politicians really are. They control your income, retirement, savings, home mortages, loans, credit cards,home fuel, gasoline and or any other item that is feasible for tax. Can anyone tell me what is not taxed and why we should not have another tea party at our town meetings for our representatives and senators. We don't need to send them a message, show them the message in person the next time you vote for a person that is not an incumbent. And start thinking about what it cost to support a senator, you probably don't want to know what the cost is,so go ahead and stick your head back in the sand, your butt will be in the air for the kicking.
