JACK MURTHA SPEAKS OUT

Do you believe that a veteran who dares to speak out against the Bush administration forfeits his or her right to be honored for service to America?
Of course not. But people who do are spending millions of dollars right now spreading lies and smears against veterans.

Help The Patriot Project expose and stop anti-veteran hate groups.

I've seen first hand the good work that The Patriot Project has done. When the so-called "Vets for the Truth" started attacking me, my record, and my right to speak the truth about the war in Iraq, The Patriot Project fought back. They exposed how "Vets for the Truth" had been set up and who was behind the funding of it. (Here's a hint: the group is really run by a man who describes himself as "good friends" with Karl Rove.)

When these scumbags organized a rally here in Pennsylvania, The Patriot Project went to work again.

They take on the people who think that, in a tough political spot, outright lying about a veteran's record is fair game.

Let's give The Patriot Project the help they need to give these characters a swift kick.

Help The Patriot Project expose and stop anti-veteran hate groups.

The Patriot Project is a smart, determined initiative to expose and stop shadowy groups that pop up and callously disparage the records of veterans with outright lies.
They're up against people with big budgets and no principles. And their work has never been more important than it is right now. I urge you to take a stand against anti-veteran hate groups right now.
Let's go get 'em.

PUT YOUR EYE ON THE PRIZE

I got an email from a friend today. She was upset about making English the national language and illegal aliens collecting social security. Addressing that issue . . . America has been the melting pot of the planet forever. As people immigrated here they spoke their separate languages since our first immigrants. By the above logic we should be speaking a Native American language as our national language.
On the social security issue -- we have around 12,000,000 illigal aliens in this country. Did they come here over the last week, month, year? No. We have allowed this to happen over decades. They clean our homes, groom our lawns, baby sit our children, etc. We've allowed them to be embedded into our society . . . we really can't do without them. They have been paying into social security for years with no opportunity to collect.
My point is - why is this an issue now? Answer - to take our attention off the real issues that threaten our very existence, such as . . . .
Global warming . . . which this administration won't even acknowledge.
The debacle in Iraq . . . does it bother you that 650,000 civilians have died there since we invaded. Who's the threat to their existence, us or Sadaam? We've got close to 3,000 dead troops, not to mention more than 20,000 wounded . . . by wounded I mean paraplegics whose benefits have been cut by this administration.
Anybody remember a storm called Katrina and this administration's response? What if it was a terrorist attack that didn't have a week's worth of warnings?
How about being warned that Osama bin laden wanted to attack the U.S. The warning came more than a month prior to 9/11. They moved a G8 meeting a year earlier for fear of a plane into building attack, but they claim they couldn't imagine that sort of attack.
I can go on and on about this administration's incompetence, but one thing they are completely competent in is the shell game. If they don't want you to be concerned about the real issues they scare the shit out of you with something meaningless.
WAKE UP AND INFORM YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MONDAY MORNING FUNNY

When George Bush first got elected President and was spending his first night in the White House.
The ghost of George Washington appears, and George says "How can I best serve my country?
Washington says: "Never tell a lie"
Ouch says George, "I don't know about that"
The next night, Thomas Jefferson appears... George says "How can I best serve my country?"
Jefferson says "Listen to the People"
"Ohhh! I really don't want to do that"
On the third night, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln appears....
George says, "How can I best serve my country?"
Lincoln says, "Go to the Theater."
