A week after the election...
Instead of posting stories of my normal daily life here in Sun City, AZ such as my Dance for Fitness class, visiting with RV friends, my motorcycle rides, the fabulous estate and yard sales I go to every week, my new effort to sell my condo and purchase a house, or my adventure of loosing my purse and phone and everything else in my one of my motorcycle bags and how I retrieved almost everything, I decided to post some of the issues facing our country that have me concerned.

Fairness Doctrine
Pelosi wants to reinstated the fairness doctrine in an effort to silence the conservative talk radio folks. She and other liberals believe even more liberals would have won their races on election day if it weren't for conservative talk radio. What ever happened to freedom of speech? Enjoy it while you have it Americans!!!

Pelosi Supports 'Fairness Doctrine'
by John Gizzi
The speaker of the House made it clear to me and more than forty of my colleagues yesterday that a bill by Rep. Mike Pence (R.-Ind.) to outlaw the “Fairness Doctrine” (which a liberal administration could use to silence Rush Limbaugh, other radio talk show hosts and much of the new alternative media) would not see the light of day in Congress during ’08........
“So I don’t see it [the Pence bill] coming to the floor,” Pelosi said.
“Do you personally support revival of the ‘Fairness Doctrine?’” I asked.
“Yes,” the speaker replied, without hesitation.

Dollars lining up for 'civilian national security force'?
Report cites Frank's proposal to cut military 25%

Sen. Barack Obama
President-elect Barack Obama raised questions during an election campaign stop in Colorado Springs when he asserted the U.S. needs a "civilian national security force" that would be as powerful, strong and well-funded as the Army, Marines, Navy and Air Force, but few of those questions have been answered.
But now one report is proposing a possible solution for part of the equation: From where would the money for such an organization come? Democrats in Congress now are floating the idea of cutting U.S. military spending by 25 percent, or $150 billion a year, and according to a report from blogger Jay Tea, that could be used for the new "security force."
The idea to cut the military, proposed by Rep. Barney Frank, already is being opposed by Republicans.

Originally Obama's web site said the following:
"The Obama Administration will call on Americans to serve in order to meet the nation's challenges. President-Elect Obama will expand national service programs like AmeriCorps and Peace Corps and will create a new Classroom Corps to help teachers in underserved schools, as well as a new Health Corps, Clean Energy Corps, and Veterans Corps. Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year. Obama will encourage retiring Americans to serve by improving programs available for individuals over age 55, while at the same time promoting youth programs such as Youth Build and Head Start."
After negative comments, the Obama web site changed the wording in the paragraph containing the word "required" to: "setting a goal that all middle school and high school students do 50 hours of community service a year and by developing a plan so that all college students who conduct 100 hours of community service receive a universal and fully refundable tax credit ensuring that the first $4,000 of their college education is completely free."
Geeeesh!! What ever happened to volunteerism being voluntary?

Court unlikely to toss 'illegal alien' term.
Claiming that the terms are inflammatory, the president of Arizona’s Hispanic Bar Association, (known as Los Abogados) has asked AZ state Supreme Court Chief Justice Ruth McGregor to stop using them at trials or hearings because they create perceptions of judicial bias.
In a strongly worded letter to the chief justice, Los Abogados’ president says attaching an illegal status to a person (in the country illegally) establishes a brand of contemptibility, creates the appearance of anti-immigrant prejudice and tarnishes the image of courts as a place where disputes may be fairly resolved.
It further points out that no human being is illegal (but they can be in a country illegally) and that a national Hispanic journalism association has roundly criticized the reference for dehumanizing a segment of the population. The letter goes on to criticize the state’s High Court for using the term “illegals” in at least two opinions and the term “illegal aliens” in dozens of others.
It concludes with a list of acceptable and unacceptable terms relating to illegal immigration. Among those the group wants banned are; immigration crisis, immigration epidemic, open borders advocates, anchor babies and invaders. Among the acceptable terms are foreign nationals, unauthorized workers and human rights advocates.

ACTION ALERT ON PELOSI TO STOP WORKSITE ENFORCEMENT RAIDS BY ICE
House Speaker Pelosi has touched off a new round of fighting over whether the Homeland Security Department should continue to stage controversial raids of work sites around the country. That may foreshadow a dispute that could move front and center when the new Congress convenes in January. Pelosi indicated at a news conference Wednesday that she supports an end to work site enforcement
operations nationwide by Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which is part of Homeland Security Department. She said the urgency of putting together comprehensive immigration reform legislation has been intensified by the raids. "How do we end the ICE raids, have a situation where we can end the ICE raids as we put together the comprehensive immigration reform?" she asked.

When is the US Government going to start being more concerned about the out-of-work American citizens than they are about Foreign Nationals who are undocumented workers who are not illegal but in our country illegally? Did I get that right? I don't want to offend anyone. :-)
And, why does she want them stopped? BECAUSE THEY WORK!!!

Ten Reasons Why Mexicans
Captured America

10) By 2050, Mexican Population to Triple in U.S.
http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/200 ... tudy_N.htm
Alderete said, "Good luck with your White.....errrr....I mean "American" (wink wink) revolution."
Alderete reminds me of a class highbrow who can use his brute force to frighten everyone around him. He doesn't enjoy brain power so he can only express himself with his 'strength' rather than intellect. He uses his countrymen by overrunning U.S. borders. He 'takes' without lawful regard.
If Mexico's current misery for its citizens causes them to flee by the millions, those immigrants provide us with a glimpse of our own future. Because as already observed in immigrant dominated areas of the USA in 2008, they recreate their former country within America.
Additionally, Mexico expects to grow from 108 million to 153 million in the next 40 years. Estimates of their migration numbers run from 12 to 15 million within the U.S. in 2008. That number could rise by as much as 30 million within 40 years. Whether they constitute economic or environmental refugees, U.S. society will not survive their pressure on infrastructure, water systems or environment.
Once they dominate our country with their inability to run a successful society-where will Americans flee?

How Long Do We Have?
About the time our original thirteen states adopted their new constitution in 1787, Alexander Tyler, a Scottish history professor at the University of Edinburgh , had this to say about the fall of the Athenian Republic ( Athens ) some 2,000 years earlier:
'A democracy is always temporary in nature; it simply cannot exist as a permanent form of government.'
'A democracy will continue to exist up until the time that voters discover they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury.'
'From that moment on, the majority always vote for the candidates who promise the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that every democracy will finally collapse due to loose fiscal policy, which is always followed by a dictatorship'
'The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years'
'During those 200 years, those nations always progressed through the following sequence:
1. from bondage to spiritual faith;
2. from spiritual faith to great courage;
3. from courage to liberty;
4. from liberty to abundance;
5. from abundance to complacency;
6. from complacency to apathy;
7. from apathy to dependence;
8. from dependence back into bondage'
I'd say we are getting close to #7.
