IF THIS TEACHER HAS THE NERVE TO SEND THIS, WE SHOULD HAVE THE NERVE TO FORWARD IT. SHE WILL PROBABLY LOSE HER JOB. DO WE AMERICANS HAVE THE NERVE TO STAND BEHIND HER, IF WE AGREE, OR DO WE JUST LET HER AND OTHERS LIKE HER CARRY OUR LOAD? INTERESTING QUESTION.
This 4th grade teacher has said it all, and she was brave enough to attach her name to it. April 17, 2009 The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20500
Mr. Obama:
I have had it with you and your administration, sir. Your conduct on your recent trip overseas has convinced me that you are not an adequate representative of the United States of America collectively or of me personally. You are so obsessed with appeasing the Europeans and the Muslim world that you have abdicated the responsibilities of the President of the United States of America. You are responsible to the citizens of the United States. You are not responsible to the peoples of any other country on earth.
I personally resent that you go around the world apologizing for the United States telling Europeans that we are arrogant and do not care about their status in the world. Sir, what do you think the First World War and the Second World War were all about if not the consideration of the peoples of Europe? Are you brain dead? What do you think the Marshall Plan was all about? Do you not understand or know the history of the 20th century?
Where do you get off telling a Muslim country that the United States does not consider itself a Christian country? Have you not read the Declaration of Independence or the Constitution of the United States? This country was founded on Judeo-Christian ethics and the principles governing this country, at least until you came along, come directly from this heritage. Do you not understand this?
Your bowing to the king of Saudi Arabia is an affront to all Americans. Our President does not bow down to anyone, let alone the king of Saudi Arabia. You didn't show Great Britain, our best and one of our oldest allies, the respect they deserve yet you bow down to the king of Saudi Arabia. How dare you, sir! How dare you!
You can not find the time to visit the graves of our greatest generation because you don't want to offend the Germans but make time to visit a mosque in Turkey. You offended our dead and every veteran when you give the Germans more respect than the people who saved the German people from themselves. What is the matter with you? I am convinced that you and the members of your administration have the historical and intellectual depth of a mud puddle and should be ashamed of yourselves, all of you.
You are so self-righteously offended by the big bankers and the American automobile manufacturers yet do nothing about the real thieves in this situation, Mr. Dodd, Mr. Frank, Franklin Raines, Jamie Gorelic, the Fannie Mae bonuses, and the Freddie Mac bonuses. What do you intend to do about them? Anything? I seriously doubt it. What about the U.S. House members passing out $9.1 million in bonuses to their staff members on top of the $2.5 million in automatic pay raises that lawmakers gave themselves? I understand the average House aide got a 17% bonus. I took a 5% cut in my pay to save jobs with my employer. You have not said anything about that. Who authorized that? I surely didn't! Executives at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac will be receiving $210 million in bonuses over an eighteen-month period, that's $45 million more than the AIG bonuses. In fact, Fannie and Freddie executives have already been awarded $51 million not a bad take. Who authorized that and why haven't you expressed your outrage at this group who are largely responsible for the economic mess we have right now?
I resent that you take me and my fellow citizens as brain-dead and not caring about what you idiots do. We are watching what you are doing and we are getting increasingly fed up with all of you. I also want you to know that I personally find just about everything you do and say to be offensive to every one of my sensibilities. I promise you that I will work tirelessly to see that you do not get a chance to spend two terms destroying my beautiful country.

5 Things You Never Knew Your Cell Phone Could Do
For all the folks with cell phones. (This should be printed and kept in
your car, purse, and wallet. Good information to have with you.)
There are a few things that can be done in times of grave
emergencies.
Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for
survival. Check out the things that you can do with it:
FIRST
Emergency
The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112. If you find Yourself
out
of the coverage area of your mobile network and there is an Emergency,
dial 112 and the mobile wi ll search any existing network to Establish
the
emergency number for you, and interestingly, this number 112 can be
dialed
even if the keypad is locked. Try it out.
SECOND
Have you locked your keys in the car?
Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy
someday.
Good reason to own a cell phone: If you lock your keys In the car and
the
spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their cell phone from
your
cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot From your car door and
have
the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the
mobile phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone from
having
to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be hundreds
of
miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other ' remote '
for
your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).
Editor ' s Note: It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car
over a cell phone! '
NOTE from KAREN: Gary and I tried this and it does really work.
THIRD
Hidden Battery Power
Imagine your cell battery is very low. To activate, press the keys
*3370#.
Your cell phone will restart with this reserve and the instrument will
show a 50% increase in battery. This reserve will get charged when you
charge your cell phone next time.
FOURTH
How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?
To check your Mobile phone ' s serial number, key in the following
Digits
on your phone: *#06#. A 15-digit code will appear on the screen. This
number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere
safe.
If your phone gets stolen, you can phone your service provider and give
them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if
the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You
probably won ' t get your phone back, but at least you know that
whoever
stole it can ' t use/sell it either. If everybody does thi s, there
would
be no point in people stealing mobile phones.
And Finally.....
FIFTH
Free Directory Service for Cells
Cell phone companies are charging us $1.00 to $1.75 or more for 411
information calls when they don ' t have to. Most of us do not carry a
telephone directory in our vehicle, which makes this situation even
more
of a problem. When you need to us e the 411 information option, simply
dial: (800)FREE411, or (800) 373-3411 without incurring any charge at
all.
Program this into your cell phone now.
This is the kind of information people don ' t mind receiving, so pass
it
on to your family and friends.

Interesting o's healthcare costs
HOW MUCH OBAMACARE COSTS THE AVERAGE FAMILY
By DICK MORRIS & EILEEN MCGANN
Published on DickMorris.com on October 19, 2009
Whether or not you now have health insurance, Obama's healthcare bill will cost you dearly. If you don't have insurance, you will be required to buy it. The legislation specifies how much you will have to pay for the coverage before any subsidy kicks in. All during the campaign, Obama kept speaking about affordable coverage. Now it appears that his definition of "affordable" might be a bit elastic.
* If your household income is $66,000 a year, slightly above the national average, Obama's healthcare bill will require you to spend 12 percent of your income -- about $8,000 a year or almost $700 a month -- to buy health insurance before you get any federal subsidy.
* Even those making less will have to reach deep into their meager resources to satisfy Obama's statutory requirement. Families scraping by on only $44,000 a year will have to pay 7 percent of their income (about $3,000) on insurance.
* Even those making just $33,000 will have to ante up 4.5 percent of their income (about $1500) for health insurance.
* The required payments reach so far down the scale that those who are living at the federal poverty level of $22,000 will have to shell out 2 percent of their totally inadequate incomes ($440) for insurance. That Obama is charging premiums to those living at or on the border of poverty is absolutely incredible! And this from a candidate who pledged that he would not tax the middle class! If you have insurance, you will get hit by his proposed 40 percent tax on insurance premiums.
* When the tax -- and the legislation -- takes effect in 2013, all families making about $120,000 or more in combined household income (14 percent of all families or one in seven) will have to pay the tax.
* By the next year, 2014, the tax will hit every family making more than $100,000 (about 18 percent of all families or one in six)
* By 2019, 10 years hence, the tax will reach down to effect every family making more than $75,000 a year (31 percent of families or one in three).
The tax will take 40 percent of all premiums above $21,000.
So if you don't have insurance, you will be socked with a mandate to buy coverage and pay a hefty proportion of your income to do it and if you have insurance, you will be hit with an excise tax on the coverage.
(In theory, it is the insurance companies that have to pay the tax, but the Senate Finance Committee "assumes" that they will pass the tax along to their policyholders.)
