This will make you sick!
JOE vs. JOSE
You have two families: "Joe Legal" and "Jose Illegal". Both families have two parents, two children, and live in California...
Joe Legal works in construction, has a Social Security Number and makes $25.00 per hour with taxes deducted.
Jose Illegal also works in construction, has NO Social Security Number, and gets paid $15.00 cash "under the table".
Ready? Now pay attention....
Joe Legal: $25.00 per hour x 40 hours = $1000.00 per week, or $52,000.00 per year. Now take 30% away for state and federal tax; Joe Legal now has $31,231.00.
Jose Illegal: $15.00 per hour x 40 hours = $600.00 per week, or $31,200.0 0 per year. Jose Illegal pays no taxes. Jose Illegal now has $31,200.00.
Joe Legal pays medical and dental insurance with limited coverage for his family at $600.00 per month, or $7,200.00 per year. Joe Legal now has $24,031.00.
Jose Illegal has full medical and dental coverage through the state and local clinics and emergency hospitals at a cost of $0.00 per year. Jose Illegal still has $31,200.00.
Joe Legal makes too much money and is not eligible for food stamps or welfare. Joe Legal pays $500.00 per month for food, or $6,000.00 per year. Joe Legal now has $18,031.00.
Jose Illegal has no documented income and is eligible for food stamps, WIC and welfare. Jose Illegal still has $31,200.00.
Joe Legal pays rent of $1,200.00 per month, or $14,400.00 per year. Joe Legal now has 9,631..00.
Jose Illegal receives a $500.00 per month Federal Rent Subsidy. Jose Illegal pays out that $500.00 per month, or $6,000.00 per year. Jose Illegal still has $ 31,200.00.
Joe Legal pays $200.00 per month, or $2,400.00 for car insurance. Some of that is uninsured motorist insurance. Joe Legal now has $7,231.00.
Jose Illegal says, "We don't need no stinkin' insurance!" and still has $31,200.00.
Joe Legal has to make his $7,231.00 stretch to pay utilities, gasoline, etc.
Jose Illegal has to make his $31,200.00 stretch to pay utilities, gasoline, and what he sends out of the country every month.
Joe Legal now works overtime on Saturdays or gets a part time job after work.
Jose Illegal has nights and weekends off to enjoy with his family.
Joe Legal's and Jose Illegal's children both attend the same elementary school. Joe Legal pays for his children's lunches, while Jose Illegal's children get a government sponsored lunch. Jose Illegal's children have an after school ESL program. Joe Legal's children go home.
Now, when they reach college age, Joe Legal's kids may not get into a State School and may not qualify for scholarships, grants or other tuition help, even though Joe has been paying for State Schools through his taxes, while Jose Illegal's kids "go to the head of the class" because they are a minority.
Joe Legal and Jose Illegal both enjoy the same police and fire services, but Joe paid for them and Jose did not pay.
Do you understand, now?
If you vote for or support any politician that supports illegal aliens... you are part of the problem!
It's time to take a stand for America and Americans!

WW II Trivia ... Thanks Judi Cole!
WW II Trivia
This is from Col D. G. Swinford, USMC, Ret. and a history
buff. You would really have to dig deep to get this kind of ringside
seat to history:
1. The first German serviceman killed in WW II was killed by the
Japanese ( China , 1937), the first American serviceman killed was
killed by the Russians ( Finland 1940); highest ranking American
killed was Lt Gen Lesley McNair, killed by the US Army Air Corps. So
much for allies.
2. The youngest US serviceman was 12 year old Calvin Graham, USN. He
was wounded and given a Dishonorable Discharge for lying about his
age. His benefits were later restored by act of Congress.
3... At the time of Pearl Harbor , the top US Navy command was called
CINCUS (pronounced 'sink us'), the shoulder patch of the US Army's
45th Infantry division was the Swastika, and Hitler's private train
was named 'Amerika.' All three were soon changed for PR purposes.
4. More US servicemen died in the Air Corps than the Marine Corps.
While completing the required 30 missions, your chance of being
killed was 71%.
5. Generally speaking, there was no such thing as an average fighter
pilot. You were either an ace or a target. For instance, Japanese
Ace Hiroyoshi Nishizawa shot down over 80 planes. He died while a
passenger on a cargo plane.
6. It was a common practice on fighter planes to load every 5th
round with a tracer round to aid in aiming. This was a mistake.
Tracers had different ballistics so (at long range) if your tracers
were hitting the target 80% of your rounds were missing. Worse yet
tracers instantly told your enemy he was under fire and from which
direction. Worst of all was the practice of loading a string of
tracers at the end of the belt to tell you that you were out of
ammo. This was definitely not something you wanted to tell the
enemy. Units that stopped using tracers saw their success rate
nearly double and their loss rate go down.
YOU'VE GOT TO LOVE THIS ONE...
7. When allied armies reached the Rhine , the first thing men did was
pee in it. This was pretty universal from the lowest private to
Winston Churchill (who made a big show of it) and Gen. Patton (who
had himself photographed in the act).
8. German Me-264 bombers were capable of bombing New York City , but
they decided it wasn't worth the effort.
9. German submarine U-120 was sunk by a malfunctioning toilet.
10. Among the first 'Germans' captured at Normandy were several
Koreans. They had been forced to fight for the Japanese Army until
they were captured by the Russians and forced to fight for the
Russian Army until they were captured by the Germans and forced to
fight for the German Army until they were captured by the US Army.
AND HER IS THE BEST FOR LAST...
11. Following a massive naval bombardment, 35,000 United States and
Canadian troops stormed ashore at Kiska, in the Aleutian Islands, 21
troops were killed in the assault on the island. It could have been
worse if there had been any Japanese on the island.

''The Most Transparent Dictatorship in US History''
During the campaign, then-candidate Obama promised the American people that, if they elected him, they would have "the most ethical and transparent administration in American history."
Don't take my word for it. Take his.
If you took the time to watch the linked video, you heard him accuse every preceding administration, going all the way back to the Founders, of being less ethical and less transparent than his.
"We have put in place the toughest ethics laws and toughest transparency rules of any administration in history. By the way, this is the first administration since the FOUNDING of our country where all of you can find out who visits the White House. . . the first time in history, and that's just one example of how we're trying to constantly open up the process. So long as I am president, I won't stop fighting to cut waste and abuse in Washington, to eliminate what we don't need to pay for what we do."
Finally, the obligatory shot at George W. Bush. . .
". . . to rein in exploding deficits that have been accumulating, not just in the last year, but in the last ten."
That was then. This is now. . .
Dateline October 14, 2011: Politico "The Obama administration is appealing a judge's ruling that Secret Service records of visitors to the White House complex are subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act.
The Justice Department filed a formal notice of appeal Friday afternoon regarding U.S. District Court Judge Beryl Howell's August ruling rejecting arguments that the so-called WAVES records belong to the White House even though they are maintained and used by the Secret Service."
So much for the promise to open up the records so that the American people can see who is visiting the White House. (And, to quote the president, "that's just one example.")
Politico, which makes no pretense about its left-leaning worldview, went so far as to note that the position being taken by Obama was "essentially the same one" taken by the Bush administration. (Ouch! That's gotta hurt!)
While appealing the court ruling requiring it to be more transparent, the administration is also demonstrating how ethical and honest it is by sending out Joe Biden to warn that unless Congress ponies up $30 billion for the teacher's unions and $5 billion for the police and firefighter's unions, then rapes and murders will "continue to increase."
Biden claimed the city of Flint, Michigan was literally under siege by criminals; rapes had tripled and murders were not far behind, according to the Veep.
Even the Obama-friendly Annenberg Foundation's Factcheck.org couldn't find a polite way of calling Biden a liar:
". . . the vice president misrepresented the extent of the city’s crime problem — flagrantly so, in the case of rapes. He also ignored the fact that crime this year is down, based on the city’s own crime figures, despite cuts in the police force and in direct contradiction with his larger point that Flint’s staffing cuts resulted in rising crime."
That covers the administration's exceptional honesty. Now what about its claim to be the "most ethical" in history?
A Human Events reporter, Jason Mattera, managed to get close enough to Biden to ask him a question, to wit: "Do you regret using a rape reference to describe Republican opposition to the president's bill?"
Biden's response? First, he lied, denying that he had made any such reference. Then he doubled-down on his first lie, reiterating that rapes and murders had tripled, only seconds after denying he had even said that.
“I didn’t use — no, no, no,” Biden told Mattera amid a crowd of onlookers on Capitol Hill. “What I said — let’s get it straight, guy, don’t screw around with me. Let’s get it straight.”
“I said rape was up three times in Flint, [Mich.],” Biden continued. “There are the numbers. Go look at the numbers. Murder’s up, rape is up and burglary’s up. That’s exactly what I said.”
After Mattera's question exposed Biden as an unrepentant liar, the most honest, ethical and transparent administration in history demanded that Mattera's press credentials be investigated and if possible, revoked.
But according to all observers, Mattera never misrepresented himself. He told Biden staffers who he was and who he worked for. And in the videotaped exchange, Mattera's press credentials were clearly visible the entire time.
But Mattera questioned the Dear Leader. How dare he?
Assessment:
"Shall the throne of iniquity have fellowship with thee, which frameth mischief by a law?" (Psalms 94:20)
In addition to being the most ethical and honest administration ever to bless America with its benevolence, Obama also promised that it would be the most transparent.
In keeping with that promise, the Department of Justice is seeking a law that would allow it to reply to Freedom of Information requests by lying about the documents being sought.
Mike German, Policy Counsel with the ACLU, authored a lengthy letter to the Justice Department expressing the ACLU's opposition:
"It's shocking that you would twist what is supposed to be a statute -- that's supposed to give people access to what the government is doing -- in a way that would allow the government to actually mislead the American public."
Shocking? Absolutely not, says the director of the DoJ's Office of Information Policy. According to the DoJ, "the entire consideration process for the proposal" (to lie to the public when convenient for the government) "has been open and transparent."
(I'm not kidding -- read down to the sixth paragraph from the end).
"To ensure that the integrity of the exclusion is maintained, agencies must ensure that their responses do not reveal the existence of excluded records," noted the DoJ's Melanie Pustay.
In other words, in order to lie effectively, it is necessary in their responses not to reveal that they are lying.
Carried to the extreme, this would allow the government to withhold evidence that might exonerate the innocent or cover up evidence that might convict the guilty.
All that is necessary is for some government official (even if he is the one under investigation) to classify the information as "too sensitive" to release and the Freedom of Information Act is effectively suspended. Not to mention the Constitution.
"For the mystery of iniquity [lawlessness] doth already work: only He who now letteth will let, until He be taken out of the way." (2 Thessalonians 2:7)
The only thing truly transparent about this administration is its lawlessness, which it doesn't even try to hide. When questioned, they either criticize the questioner or they lie.
Last week, Obama announced that he "can't wait" for the Congress to pass new stimulus programs so he has decided to ignore the Congress and rule by decree.
“I’m here to say to all of you and to say to the people of Nevada and the people of Las Vegas, we can’t wait for an increasingly dysfunctional Congress to do its job. Where they won’t act, I will,” Obama said.
And not just one time, either. Obama announced his intention to simply ignore the Congress whenever he found it convenient.
“I’ve told my administration to keep looking every single day for actions we can take without Congress, steps that can save consumers money, make government more efficient and responsive, and help heal the economy. And we’re going to be announcing these executive actions on a regular basis . . ."
Can he do that? Legally, I mean? Well, if he DID have the authority to take action, then why did he wait as long as he did? The answer is obvious. He does NOT have the Constitutional authority, or he would have.
The Washington Times published an editorial entitled "Obama's One Man Show" that succinctly summarized the issue in its' subtitle: "President Unveils Lawless Scheme To Bypass Congress With Executive Orders";
"President Obama officially declared Congress irrelevant on Monday. Instead of following the proper legislative process, he’s going to rule by executive orders issued once per week for the rest of the year. “We don’t have to wait for Congress, we’re just going to go ahead and act on our own,” said Mr. Obama. "
"The president is upset that his Democratic Senate balked at his $467 billion American Jobs Act both as a whole and broken up into smaller tax-and-stimulus bills. So he’s going to bypass democracy and try to rule by fiat."
Rather than being the most ethical, honest and transparent administration in the history of the United States, what we ended up with was the most lawless.
Obama unlawfully used TARP money so that the government obtained ownership interests in Chrysler and General Motors. He ignored the War Powers Act in deploying the military machine to Libya. When Congress refused to pass the DREAM Act, he implemented portions of it via executive order.
His contempt for the rule of law has had a trickle-down effect into federal administrative bureaucracies such as the Environmental Protection Agency and the National Labor Relations Board. Even his Department of Justice has shown contempt for the rule of law.
There are members of Congress advocating for more lawbreaking because they know they have a president who is willing to break -- indeed, has broken -- the law governing his office and limiting its powers. So much for our system of checks and balances.
They also know that the patsy liberal media don't care about these things unless the unconstitutional lawbreaking is done by Republicans.
The Constitution is broad in its sweep, but is specific about certain functions of government. Congress makes the laws. When Congress doesn't pass a law, the president can't pick up his bat and ball like an angry juvenile.
Obama's unqualified embrace of the lawless "Occupy Wall Street" movement is another demonstration of the administration's contempt for the rule of law.
Why else would he applaud it while he repeatedly slammed the Tea Party demonstrations that obtained lawful permits, behaved in a lawful manner, and even cleaned up after themselves?
After all, it was Obama that gave them their marching orders. Obama was the one to call for class warfare against the "fat cats" on Wall Street, the millionaires, greedy corporations and their Republican allies, etc.
A dictatorship is defined as "an autocratic form of government in which the government is ruled by a leader or leadership unrestricted by law, constitutions or other social or political factors within the state.
By that definition, America officially became a dictatorship on Monday.

Genius ... thanks John Massey!
Subject: Fw: GENIUS?
Is this man truly a genius?
An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had recently failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.
The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan"..
All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A...
After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy. As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.
The second test average was a D! No one was happy.
When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.
As the tests proceeded, the scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.
All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great, but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.
Could not be any simpler than that. (Please pass this on)
Remember, there is a test coming up. The 2012 elections.

All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great, but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.
Could not be any simpler than that. (Please pass this on)
Remember, there is a test coming up. The 2012 elections.
Government investigates rancher ... Thanks John & Yvette Massey!
John & Yvette Massey
Subject: Government Investigates Rancher
The Montana Department of Employment, Division of Labor Standards claimed a small rancher was not paying proper wages to his help and sent an agent out to investigate him.
GOV'T AGENT: "I need a list of your employees and how much you pay them."
RANCHER: "Well, there's my hired hand who's been with me for 3 years. I pay him $200 a week plus free room and board.
Then there's the mentally challenged guy. He works about 18 hours every day and does about 90% of all the work around here.
He makes about $10 per week, pays his own room and board, and I buy him a bottle of bourbon every Saturday night so he can cope with life. He also sleeps with my wife occasionally."
GOV'T AGENT: "That's the guy I want to talk to - the mentally challenged one."
RANCHER: "That would be me."

Hi Lord ... Thanks Nita Elliott!
~~Hi Lord ~~~Simple but true.
Hi Lord, it’s me.
We are getting older and things are getting bad here.
Gas prices are too high, no jobs, food and heating costs too high.
I know some have taken you out of our schools, government and even
Christmas, but Lord I'm asking you to come back and re-bless America .
We really need you!
There are more of us who want you than those who don't!
Thank You Lord,
I Love you.
If you agree, send it on---if not just delete. Only you and the Lord will know.
AMEN
A really cute one ... Thanks Judi Cole!
These are cute!
*I have been in many places, but I've never been in Cahoots.
Apparently, you can't go alone. You have to be in Cahoots with someone.*
* *
*I've also never been in Cognito. I hear no one recognizes you there.*
* *
*I have, however, been in Sane. They don't have an airport; you have to be
driven there. I have made several trips there, thanks to my friends, family
and work.*
* *
*I would like to go to Conclusions, but you have to jump, and I'm not too much on physical activity anymore.*
* *
*I have also been in Doubt. That is a sad place to go, and I try not to visit there too often.*
* *
*I've been in Flexible, but only when it was very important to stand firm.*
* *
*Sometimes I'm in Capable, and I go there more often as I'm getting older.*
* *
*One of my favorite places to be is in Suspense! It really gets the adrenalin flowing and pumps up the old heart! At my age I need all the stimuli I can get!*
* *
*I may have been in Continent, and I don't remember what country I was in. It's an age thing.*
