For Christian American readers of this blog:


I wish to incite all Christians to rise up and take back the United States of America with all of God's manifold blessings. We want the free allowance of the Bible and prayers allowed again in schools, halls of justice, and all governing bodies. We don't seek a theocracy until Jesus returns to earth because all men are weak and power corrupts the very best of them.
We want to be a kinder and gentler people without slavery or condescension to any.

The world seems to be in a time of discontent among the populace. Christians should not fear. God is Love, shown best through Jesus Christ. God is still in control. All Glory to our Creator and to our God!


A favorite quote from my good friend, Jack Plymale, which I appreciate:

"Wars are planned by old men,in council rooms apart. They plan for greater armament, they map the battle chart, but: where sightless eyes stare out, beyond life's vanished joys, I've noticed,somehow, all the dead and mamed are hardly more than boys(Grantland Rice per our mutual friend, Sarah Rapp)."

Thanks Jack!

I must admit that I do not check authenticity of my posts. If anyone can tell me of a non-biased arbitrator, I will attempt to do so more regularly. I know of no such arbitrator for the internet.

History Lesson Your social security Thanks Ron Walters!



Subject: History Lesson on Your Social Security Card



Just in case some of you young whippersnappers (& some older ones) didn't know this. It's easy to check out, if you don't believe it.



Be sure and show it to your family and friends. They need a little history lesson on what's what and it doesn't matter whether you are Democrat or Republican. Facts are Facts.



Social Security Cards up until the 1980s expressly stated the number and card were not to be used for identification purposes. Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the message,



NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION, was removed.



(http://blog.kir.com/archives/images/social+security.gif) An old Social Security card with the "NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION" message.



Our Social Security



Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. He promised:



1.) That participation in the Program would be Completely voluntary,



No longer Voluntary



2.) That the participants would only have to pay

1% of the first $1,400 of their annual Incomes into the Program,



Now 7.65% on the first $90,000



3.) That the money the participants elected to put into the Program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year,



No longer tax deductible



4.) That the money the participants put into the independent 'Trust Fund' rather than into the general operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program, and,



Under Johnson the money was moved to The General Fund and Spent



5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.



Under Clinton & Gore Up to 85% of your Social Security can be Taxed



Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month -- and then finding that we are getting taxed on 85% of the money we paid to the Federal government to 'put away' -- you may be interested in the following:



------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ----



Q: Which Political Party took Social Security from the independent 'Trust Fund' and put it into the general fund so that Congress could spend it?



A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically-controlled House and Senate.



------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ---------

--



Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding?



A: The Democrat Party



------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ---------



Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities?



A: The Democrat Party, with Al Gore casting the 'tie-breaking' deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the U.S.



------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- -



Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants?



AND MY FAVORITE:



A: That's right! Jimmy Carter and the Democrat Party. Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The Democrat Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it!



------------ -- ------------ --------- ----- ------------ --------- -------



Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away!



And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!



If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of awareness will be planted and maybe changes will evolve.



It's certainly worth a try.



How many people can YOU send this to?



Actions speak louder than bumper stickers.
