I was surfing the interweb (thank you AlGore ) and came across a discussion regarding the relative merits of the information available to all of us on the internet.  One party was decrying the fact that there was SOOOOO much incorrect information regarding the state of the economy during Mr. Obama’s  <sarc>wonderful</sarc> administration and that people should be getting their facts from ‘reliable’ sources.  I most wholeheartedly agree!  One party even suggested that the government would be a good place for factual information and gave us this link:  <a href=”http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/Historicals”>White House OMB</a>

Being curious I did go to the website and  found a list of various ‘Historical Tables’ prepared by the Office of Management and Budget.  My eyes sort of glazed over at the list but somehow focused on one in particular: <a href=”http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/omb/budget/fy2013/assets/hist07z1.xls”>Table 7.1–Federal Debt at the End of the Year: 1940-2017</a>.  As I looked at the information contained in this table I noticed a very disturbing, at least to me, fact in the FY 20

Our church recently became involved with an organization out of Atlanta Georgia called Angel Food Ministries.  It is a non-denominational, non-profit organization that helps people get good food at a very low cost. The program started 14 years ago when the local pastor wanted to help the people in his area feed themselves when the local mills closed.  It has grown tremendously in the last 14 years and the need is still growing.  If you are active in a local organization and you want to help please take a look at this program. Your organization doesn’t have to be church related to get involved! All you need is a desire to help people in need.

We have been affiliated with them for four months now and the response has been amazing, overwhelming and heartbreaking!

I could write pages upon pages of the stories we’ve heard from the people we have taken orders from but my heart couldn’t handle it and it would be hard to type through the tears.

From families that have lost their main source of income through death or accident to those who have just lost a job, the stories just make me aware of just how blessed I am! The expressions of gratitude from these people is just overwhelming and sometimes it takes everything I have to keep from breaking down when I take the orders.The stories of having to chose between food and other necessities is overwhelming!

There are no qualifications to participate in the program, any one can purchase as much as they want. One measure of the need is the fact that the Depatment of Health and Human Services send people to us when they don’t qualify for assistance!

If you have it in your heart to help people and help them keep their dignity please take a look at this program.
The economy is in trouble and the numbers of people needing help will grow.
Many are called to serve but few are willing! I pray that some of you will find it in your heart to help.

From ME to you and now, hopefully, from you to those in need!

An entry in Michelle Malkin’s site [Michelle Malkin - Obama Campaign Fraud] (http://michellemalkin.com/2008/10/22/obamas-donor-credit-card-fraud-problem/)cites a newsmax article by Ken Timmerman chronicling someones successful attempt to fool the system!

Obama Ignores Credit Card Donation Fraud

If this doesn’t raise serious questions about online fundraising I don’t know what will! With the ever increasing amounts of cash required ot mount a political campaign and the ‘ends justifies the means’ attitude of a certain candidate’s political campaign staff it’s not surprising that this is happening.

If this is the “Hope and Change” we’re going to get…I’ll go for the old tried and true!!!

McCain – Palin ’08

Nation could face short election night!

WOW! Why bother voting when the MSM already knows who the winner is????

Guess I’ll stay home on Nov 4……NOT!!!!!!!!

But, he’s still an interesting read!

Unfortunately unions still hold sway in the old paper mill towns, even though the mills are closed!

Ralph Nader Opens Campaign Office

I suppose if we could talk him up and siphon votes away from “The One” we could get Maine to go McCain! (Just a dream, sigh)

How come…the personnel transporting ‘the bombs’ need a security clearance?

How come…the personnel loading ‘the bombs’ need a security clearance?

How come…the personnel doing the maintenance on ‘the bombs’ need a security clearance?

How come…the personnel doing the maintenance on the planes & missiles carrying ‘the bombs’ need a security clearance?

How come…the personnel flying the planes and launching the missiles that carry ‘the bombs’ need a security clearance?

How come…the officer carrying “the football” with the launch codes that authorize the use of ‘the bombs’ needs a security clearance?

BUT ONE OF THE GUYS RUNNING FOR POTUS DOESN’T QUALIFY FOR A SECURITY CLEARANCE BECAUSE OF HIS PAST ASSOCIATIONS???????

(I’m not sayin’, I’m just askin’!)
