Subject: SAD & TRUE A REAL EYE OPENER
We're "broke" and can't help our own Seniors, Veterans, Orphans, Homeless etc.?
In the last month, we have provided aid to Haiti , Chile , and Turkey .
Our retired seniors living on a 'fixed income' receive no aid or get any breaks while our government and religious organizations pour Hundreds of Millions of $$$$$'s and Tons of Food to Foreign Countries!
We have hundreds of adoptable children who are shoved aside to make room for the adoption of foreign orphans.
USA -- a country where we have homeless without shelter, children going to bed hungry, elderly going without 'needed' meds, and mentally ill without treatment etc, etc. YET...................They have a 'Benefit' for the people of Haiti on 12 TV stations, ships and planes lining up with food, water, tents clothes, bedding, doctors and medical supplies.
Imagine if the *GOVERNMENT* gave U.S. citizens the same support they give to other countries.
Sad isn't it? When is Congress going to wake up?
99% of people won't have the guts to forward this.
I Just Did!

I have seen very few scientific studies of homosexuality. Diversity is ok for those who feel they must practice those types of sexual behavior and I am not to judge, but I found this bit of research interesting:

Lesbianism linked to upbringing
Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 11/22/2010 3:35:00 AMA recently released study shows a link between childhood family structure and the rate of female homosexuality -- undermining the claim that sexual orientation is genetic or biological.
Family Research Council (FRC) looked into the family lives and worship rates of 7,643 women between the ages of 14 and 44. Pat Fagan, senior fellow and director of the Marriage and Religion Research Institute at FRC, co-evaluated the data and tells OneNewsNow about the findings.
"Once the girl grows up in a home in which her father is not present, it's about three times" more likely she has had or will have homosexual partners, he says -- but when she is raised by parents who are married and "always intact, it's about a four-percent rate." Moreover, he explains that rate is "slightly higher in the always-intact-but-cohabitating parents -- that's parents who never married."
Statistics are also higher with step-families, the cohabiting step-family, and the single divorced parent, adds the FRC spokesman.
"The big take away from this study is that clearly, this [type of sexual behavior] is not genetic," Fagan points out. "The different rates of homosexuality among women are very reactive to the family structure within which they grow up. If it was genetic, you would find pretty much the same rates all across."
He further notes that, according to the results of the study, women who claim to worship weekly or monthly have a lower rate of lesbianism, while those who rarely or never worship are at a higher rate.

Now, that’s the kind of “negotiations” that Teddy Roosevelt understood. What was it he said? Walk softly and carry a big BOOM! There certainly won’t be any repeat offenders among those pirates, will there?
This should be the U.S. policy for dealing with the pirate problem. The problem would cease to exist.
I guess it beats reading an indignant letter to the UN General Assembly...Think how quickly this was handled by the Russian's.
RUSSIAN NAVY CAPTURES SOMALIAN PIRATES
http://true-turtle.livejournal.com/85315.html
This videotape shows Russian Navy commandos on a Somalian pirate ship shortly after the pirates had captured a Russian oil tanker. The Euro Union navy that patrols these waters would not interfere because they feared there could be casualties.
All explanations are in Russian with a single exception of when a wounded pirate says something in English and the Russian soldier says "This is not a fishing boat.". All conversations between the commandos are in Russian. If you don't understand Russian, the pictures speak for themselves.
The soldiers freed their compatriots and the tanker. The Russian Navy Commandos moved the pirates back to their own (pirate) ship, searched the pirate ship for weapons and explosives, and then they left the ship and exploded it with all remaining pirates hand-cuffed to it.
The commandos sank the pirate ship along with the pirates and without any court proceedings, lawyers etc. That is, they used the anti-piracy laws of the 18th and 19th centuries where the captain of the rescuing ship has the right to decide what to do with the pirates. Usually, they were hung.
I would think from now on, Russian ships will not be targets for Somalian pirates.

Yet there remains some controversy in the lyrics as shown in the above links. For Christians it is great to hear the chorus of "King Of Kings and Lord of Lords echo throughout the Macy's building. I love the original lyrics of that Chrtistian hymn.
