When God
takes something from your grasp, he's not
punishing you, but merely opening your hands to
receive something better. Concentrate on this
sentence. "The will of God will never take you
where the Grace of God will not protect you."
Something good will happen to you today,
something that you have been waiting to hear.
Please do not break. Just 27 Words, 'God our
Father, walk through my house and take away all
my worries and illnesses and please watch over
and heal my family in your name, Amen' This
prayer is so powerful. Pass this to 12 people
including me. A blessing is coming to you in
form of a new job, a house, marriage or
financially. Do not break or ask questions.
This
is a test. Does God come first in your life?
If
so, stop what you're doing and send it to 12
people now. Watch what He
does.

He has appeared on Fox News Channel, CNN, MSNBC, C-SPAN, NBC, Comcast Cable and talk-radio programming nationwide.

Here is his article about our current First Lady.

What on earth can Michelle Obama possibly be tired from? What has she done since her husband was elected that gives her one reason to be tired? I know that flying, for the proletariat such as myself, can be tiring and, more times than not, a genuine pain - but she flies in presidential luxury, sans the president. And the only checkin' in and full-body scan she goes through at an airport is when she looks at herself in a mirror.

We, the taxpayers of this great nation, demand to know just what it is that has her royalness so worn out and tired, that after just enjoying a lavish 17-day Hawaiian Christmas vacation (that cost taxpayers $4 million), she needs another vacation at one of the most exclusive (and anti-union) resorts in the country.

It cannot be that she is overworked because, if the liberal Los Angeles Times is to be believed, between them, the Obamas have 454 White House aides, at a cost to the taxpayers of more than $37 million annually - and that doesn't include recent pay raises. (See: "No Recession For Obama's 454 White House aides: They'll make $37,121,463 this year"; Andrew Malcolm, July 5, 2011.) And before you ask - yes, that is more than President and Mrs. Bush had, and I was one of the lone voices decrying the small size and cost of Laura Bush's staff.

Could Ms. Obama still be suffering fatigue from the weight of having kept secret, for two years, her extravagant Halloween costume ball? Even though they used military families as a cover in case it got out, the last thing she wanted the public to know was that, while Americans were suffering in the depths of recession, she had the biggest players in Hollywood doing an exclusive costume party just for herself and her family.

Or perhaps it's the lingering effects of taking her mother and daughters to South Africa and Botswana, or the sheer exhaustion of rushing out of Washington, four hours ahead of her husband, so she wouldn't have to share her presidential jet with him on the way to Martha's Vineyard for their annual beach break.

Then again, maybe she was exhausted from her personal $50,000 underwear shopping spree with the queen of Qatar, at Agent Provocateur, the store that bills itself as selling "the most erotic lingerie in the world. Realizing that you're responsible for closing down Madison Avenue can be tiring, and watching staff carry all those bags back to her limousines. Whew! - that would sure wear me out. And after the tiring experience of picking out all of those exotic undies, what better place to recover than an uber-posh Vail resort and the private home owned by Paula and Jim Crown?

Or maybe she's worn out from rolling around on the floor to the delight of Ellen Degeneres, or making muscles on a daytime show, or pulling on a rope on another show, or eating at all of the restaurants where she loves to pig it up. Then again, maybe Ms. Obama is just an arrogant, high-minded person who doesn't give a rat's tail about propriety or how her behavior looks to a suffering public because, after all, her husband claims the economyis improving, and who are we going to believe - the reality of our financial situation or her husband?

Michelle Obama can afford to live life large since every dime she's spending comes on the backs and sweat of others. Nothing, zip, that she spends did she personally earn. And therein is the disgusting elitism of a woman who forgets where she came from, and dares you to remind her.

We are responsible for the billionaire life she lives, and it's time we started demanding that she be accountableto us. It's time we started confronting Obama at every press conference and/or speaking venue about the behavior of his wife. He is spending hundreds of millions of our money, flying around the country to raise a billion dollars for his campaign war chest, and we're paying $4 per gallon for fuel. We've lost our homes, our mortgages are upside-down, our property taxes aren't enough to cover the increasing cost of infrastructure because of the drain of resources by illegal aliens, and all of this is happening as the price of putting milk and cereal on our tables is rising dramatically.

But why shouldn't she be smiling??? For the first time in her adult life, she is proud of America - and why not? She has tens of millions of peons paying for her very own private reparations - now that's enough to put a smile on any elitist's face!

PASS IT ON !!!! (So other taxpayers can see how their dollars are being spent.)

So Clinton is going to tell how he taxed the rich... He yearly increased those paying at least 15% from $36,900 to $45,200 by the end of his term! I still disagree with the fact that those earning over $250K (in 1993) increased to $376,732(by 2001) were taxed at 39.6%!..... Notice how he raised how much you could earn before you were at the max bracket. And that is still not an outrageous 50%!!!!

Clinton started the "negative income tax"! Of course people loved him! He gave people who PAID NO TAXES a REFUND.

Do the math... You pay $0 in taxes and yet you get a check for $2k as a refund. So if 30% of Americans are paying absolutely not a dime in and yet they are receiving at least a $2K check from the IRS as a "refund", how much DEBT does that equal? How much "unapplied" welfare is that?

Of course Obama wants to rape the "more fortunate"?

I understand envy. I would love to have a 10-bedroom home. If nothing else, just to play hide and seek in but I can't. I understand that. I want a car that can run 180mph. I can't afford that. But I don't envy those who can so much to think its ok to take HALF of the income of those who have made themselves successful.

Why are Americans ok with taking from one to give to another? My mother may have taught me to share but she also to not hate others. She said its ok to want what others have but if you want that YOU have to make it happen. She said nothing is free... Or at least it use to be the only thing free was samples at the grocery store. Now, suddenly the less fortunate (and surprise! I am one of those) is entitled to something they didn't break a sweat for, didn't sit up at night trying to consider different plans on how to achieve the goal that would buy that massive home and fast car, and they didn't "risk it all on"?

Give me a break! I want my son learn if you want it then you have to work for it. That NOTHING is free! I want my son to enjoy the fruits of his labor!

I want him to learn to say GOD BLESS THE USA!

Dear Ms. Teacher,

Nathaniel told me he received some Johnsonville cash. I am aware that most parents are ignorant to the fact that they can object and refuse certain policies the school puts in place, such as this, but I am NOT one of those parents.

DO NOT GIVE MY CHILD REWARDS!

I have agreed to allow him to participate in Fun Friday as that appears to be a healthy activity for him. But I absolutely will not tolerate a reward behavior modification program. Such experiments only provide temporary, immediate positive results but many studies show negative long term results. And, of course, regardless of clinical studies, he is my child and I choose how he is taught discipline and manners.

If there is an issue with this feel free to contact me.

Thank you,


The Parent

Have you ever seen a sushi chef use gloves? Have you ever tried to roll food tight with gloves? I can't even make a PB&J while wearing gloves! And I'm allergic to peanuts and the smallest bit of peanut butter touching my hands flares up my eczema!

Gloves for food handlers for businesses that sell prepared food is not just an expensive penalty but its also impractical unless all you do is serve food using a spoon.

Good hand washing with soap and water is what hopefully people use at home and that is sufficient for businesses too!

Food prices are already jacking up. Those price increases are already showing up and will continue increasing at restaurants because of increasing food costs. The glove requirement WILL make the prices at restaurants go up even more!

North Carolina imposing more regulation that increases a business's cost even more is ridiculous!  Increases cost means increase prices which will impact businesses.

Dear Ms. Teacher,

My son told me that he was not allowed to eat his snack today at snack time because he did not bring enough to share. I hope this was just the misunderstanding of a 6-year old and that he won't have any future confusion about this. I have again put his snack in his backpack and I expect he will be allowed to have it at snack time.

Also, I understand Monday he received a "monetary" reward. I have no problem with him participating in Fun Friday but am totally opposed to a monetary behavior modification program and do not want my child being rewarded for doing as he is told or for what is expected. I understand the money is not real but my opposition to this type of discipline/training program is beyond words. I wouldn't use a system like this on a pet so I definitely would not tolerate it being implemented on my child.

If there is an issue with this feel free to contact me.

Thank you,


The Mom

Dear Ms. Teacher,

I received your snack calendar, however, I send my son with a snack to school everyday in the side pocket of his backpack. I have no problem with sending/bringing an item or two for class parties and his birthday but I cannot fathom sending or bringing snacks for the class even once per month.

To explain it better: My son is too small to carry that much snack by himself. There really isn't room on the bus for him to "lug" on extra stuff that can't fit in his backpack with the other items he already is carrying. It is completely improbable for me to call in late to take snacks to the class, unless it is something like his birthday. And, whether it makes sense or not, it's uneconomical for me to provide snacks for the class even once per month. I can personally save money and provide better nutrition by making snacks for my son but because of asinine policies I cannot make snacks for the classroom and store bought products are expensive.

I understand this prevents my son from participating in the "class snack" but that is quite fine. Like I stated, he will always have a snack in the pocket of his backpack. He can also eat whatever is left from his lunch.

Sincerely,



The Mom

So apparently I walked too fast pass a group of overweight women because I heard them snickering and one of them actually said "look at that skinny bitch". Omg. I'm sure it pissed her off when I started laughing. At least I didn't break a sweat waking from the parking lot to the store and they parked in the handicap space! This skinny bitch parked in the back of the lot and walked in and out of WalMart in less than 15 minutes. (I stopped to tweet twice.)

This is the second time in a 7-day period some overweight dumbasses laughed at me for being little. Two guys last week mocked me for buying organic and low fat foods.... They were rocking the severely obese flag so hard I was too shock to speak. (Me? Quiet? I know!)

Why does sometimes it looks and sounds like its more acceptable today to be obese than it is to be healthy?!? I'd rather be skinny and healthy any day.

I cried when I took him to Kindergarten and tomorrow is just as heart breaking. I know I'm not the only one who wish my baby would stay a baby. He doesn't like school but he's ready... For recess and lunch. Lol. Seriously, he has talked about the playground and lunch. He doesn't even pretend to be going for any other reason.

Everything that can be ready is ready. Per his request he has a nice shorts outfit ready. His lunch is packed with PB&J, fruit cups, cookies, and fruit/veggie juice. His backpack is loaded with most of the that ridiculous list and signed paperwork.

Only thing not ready... He has to decide which shoes to wear. I'm suddenly wishing I gave him less option. Lol.

I'm not ready. I really wish he could have stayed a baby. I'm betting every first day every year will be difficult.

Ugh tomorrow morning.

Well, come to think of it, instead of doing it for just 1 month why not try to do it all the time.

Halfway into the movie and the ushers have checked the emergency exits twice! My heart and prayers go out to the victims and the families and friends of the victims of the Aurora shooting but it was an isolated incident.

Every night you go to sleep you risk not waking up. Every time you get in your car you risk that being your last breath. To live is to risk the unknowing. To live is to risk death. You can't live without death.

The point is to live. Take advantage of the time you have. But don't stop living.

Don't start demanding double and triple security. We already have created a bubblewrap society for our children and yet we still can't protect them from everything. Teach them stranger danger. Teach them to stop drop and roll. Teach them to avoid danger. Teach them to defend themselves. But don't bubblewrap them any more than they already are.

Let them live. Let yourself live.

And for peace's sake somebody stop the ushers from constantly opening the emergency exits! Thank you!

I would like to ask everyone in remembrance of Mr. Andy Griffith to whistle the theme song o the Andy Griffith show tonight at 9:30. The Andy Griffith Show originally aired for the first time on October 3, 1960 at 9:30PM. Mr. Griffith was more than an icon, here in NC, he made rural small town cool.

God bless Mr. Andy Griffith (June 1, 1926 - July 3, 2012).

One year ago tonight after blowing off one date to replace a damaged iPhone I had dinner with an amazing man. Best dinner ever!

In this year, not every moment was perfect but so many were beyond great, I finally learned to think before I speak, to compromise occasionally, and to not always be right. I don't like every moment but I love every moment together. I'm a lucky girl.

And today, for the first time, he told me loved me. That moment was only 2nd to the moment my son was born.

I wish tonight I could be spending this evening with him. This morning I waited with him until he loaded into the back of a truck and left for Green Ramp. Tonight feels like the longest night I can remember in the longest time. And this is just Day One. I hope today started the 90-day countdown because an extra 2 days seems even more unbearable.

I'll be alright and, more importantly, he'll be back. And when he does get back, we'll do something nice. I don't know what to say other than I miss him and I'm so glad I kept trying.

I love him.
