Yes, I about choked when I read that one and concluded that it gave real insight to the man's character.
Take heart! The 2012 book on his screwups will be a 'best seller.' It is a measure of our biased media that his screwups scarcely ever get publicized, except on Fox. His VA budget solution ranks right up there with his "punishing doctors who perform unnecessary surgery" and "pediatricians (who don't perform surgery) deciding that they will perform a tonsillectomy because they can make more money." I concluded that he has medical ethics confused with legal ethics.
Another measure of the man. He (and Biden, also) gave practically nothing to charity. BO sprung for $25k the year that he declared for the presidency and made a couple 'mill' from his memoirs published at the age of forty-five. He is giving more now, but Biden, who made about $425k last year, is still giving about 1/10 of 1 percent. Your 'paperboy' may have given more money to charity than 'BFD' Biden.

Most Stupid Statement Ever Made by a President
OPEN MOUTH, INSERT FOOT!!!!!!
THIS HAS GOT TO BE THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS STATEMENT EVER MADE BY A PUBLIC OFFICIAL LET ALONE BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.. AND THIS GUY IS OUR "COMMANDER IN CHIEF".
THIS MOST UNBELIEVABLE PRESIDENT?
HERE IS HIS RESPONSE WHEN HE BACKED OFF FROM HIS DECISION TO REQUIRE THE MILITARY PAY FOR THEIR WAR INJURIES.
Bad press, including major mockery of the plan by comedian Jon Stewart, led to President Obama abandoning his proposal to require veterans carry private health insurance to cover the estimated $540 million annual cost to the federal government of treatment for injuries to military personnel received during their tours on active duty. The President admitted that he was puzzled by the magnitude of the opposition to his proposal.
"Look, it's an all volunteer force," Obama complained. "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice? It doesn't compute.." "I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country, "Obama continued "I wasn't asking for blood, just money. With the country facing the worst financial crisis in its history, I'd have thought that the patriotic thing to do would be to try to help reduce the nation's deficit. I guess I underestimated the selfishness of some of my fellow Americans."
Please pass this on to everyone including every vet and their families whom you know. How in the world did a person with this mindset become our leader?
REMEMBER THIS STATEMENT... "Nobody made these guys go to war. They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the costs of their choice?"
Woudn't you just love to slap that smirk off his face?
If he thinks he will ever get another vote from an Active Duty, Reserve, National Guard service member or veteran of a military service he ought to think it over.. If you or a family member is or has served their country please pass this to them.
I'm guessing that other than the 20-25 percent hardcore liberals in the US will agree that this is just another example why this is the worst president in American history. Remind everyone over and over how this man thinks, while he bows to the Saudi Arabian king and others.

Will Rogers still valid today
Thanks Alma!
I can't find the place in the book, but in my reading of "Happy Trails" a couple of weeks ago, Roy Rogers told of meeting and speaking with Will Rogers the day before the plane crash that killed Will and Wiley Post in 1935. I have always credited Adolph Rupp, Kentucky's basketball coach from 1930-1972 as a wit second only to Will Rogers.
Will was a true sage for the American pulic throughout his life.

Will Rogers was quite the cowboy, with all the wisdom of simple, honest folk. His words still ring with common sense today...
Simple but Brilliant and full of truths! Enjoy!
Will Rogers, who died in a 1935 plane crash with his best friend, Wylie Post, was probably the greatest political sage this country ever has known.
Enjoy the following:
1. Never slap a man who's chewing tobacco.
2. Never kick a cow chip on a hot day.
3.. There are two theories to arguing with a woman . . Neither works.
4. Never miss a good chance to shut up.
5. Always drink upstream from the herd.
6. If you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.
7. The quickest way to double your money is to fold it and put it back into your pocket.
8. There are three kinds of men: The ones that learn by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.
9. Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
10. If you're riding' ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it's still there.
11. Lettin' the cat outta the bag is a whole lot easier'n puttin' it back.
12. After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him. The moral: When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.
ABOUT GROWING OLDER...
First ~ Eventually you will reach a point when you stop lying about your age and start bragging about it.
Second ~ The older we get, the fewer things seem worth waiting in line for.
Third ~ Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me; I want people to know 'why' I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.
Fourth ~ When you are dissatisfied and would like to go back to youth, think of Algebra.
Fifth ~ You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks.
Sixth ~ I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.
Seventh ~ One of the many things no one tells you about aging is that it is such a nice change from being young.
Eighth ~ One must wait until evening to see how splendid the day has been.
Ninth ~ Being young is beautiful, but being old is comfortable.
Tenth ~ Long ago, when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today it's called golf.
And, finally ~ If you don't learn to laugh at trouble, you won't have anything to laugh at when you are old.

Subject: FW: The Ceremony
As a bagpiper, I play many gigs. Recently I was asked by a funeral director to play at a grave side service for a homeless man. He had no family or friends, so the service was to be at a pauper's cemetery in the country.
As I was not familiar with the backwoods, I got lost, and being in a hurry I didn't stop to ask directions. I finally arrived an hour late and saw the undertaker had evidently gone and the hearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers left and they were eating lunch.
I felt bad and apologized to the men for being late. I went to the side of the grave and looked down and the vault lid was already in place. I didn't know what else to do, so I started to play.
The workers put down their lunches and began to gather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no family and friends. I played like I've never played before for this homeless man.
And as I played 'Amazing Grace,' the workers began to weep. They wept, I wept, we all wept together. When I finished I packed up my bagpipes and started for my car. Though my head hung low my heart was full.
As I was opening the door to my car, I heard one of the workers say, "I never seen nothin' like that before and I've been putting in septic tanks for twenty-two years."

Dick Klitch- Northam Wall of Fame Ceremony
Forgive me for bragging so much about my good friend, Dick Klitch, a fellow Mound Park Urchin from the Cultural Center of Our Universe- Portsmouth, Ohio. Dick was honored again May 1 at the Upper Arlington Counsel Chambers on a rainy Saturday morning, May 1.
I hope I can get the brochure and some of the pics added as images.
I guess this one is the best I can currently do. As a caption, Dick is the white haired gentleman with th black jacket in the center, Dick's wife Joan is in the red jacket, and Jeanie, my wife, is in the blue jacket sitting and talking with the lady in the pink jacket. The lady is the widow of Bob Hart, Columbus East's coach of arguably Ohio's best basketball Champions. There were more than a hundred who came to honor this great "Meat and Potatoes" pro, as Dick refers to his teachings.

Thank God for the President!
"THANK GOD FOR THE PRESIDENT"
"Evil is powerless if the good are unafraid."
Ronald Reagan
Subject: THANK GOD FOR THE PRESIDENT!
(Supposedly written by an 82 yr old lady who gives a whole new slant on the "amazing" job Obama is doing.)
That is right - I will say it "THANK GOD FOR THE PRESIDENT."
1. He destroyed the Clinton Political Machine - Driving a stake thru the heart of Hillary's Presidential aspirations - something no Republican was ever able to do. Remember when a Hillary Presidency scared the daylights out of you!
2. He killed off the Kennedy Dynasty - No more Kennedy's trolling Washington looking for booze and women wanting rides home. American women and freedom are safer tonight.
3. He is destroying the Democratic Party before our eyes!
>Dennis Moore had never lost a race - quit
>Evan Bayh had never lost a race- quit
>Byron Dorgan had never lost a race - quit
>Harry Reid - soon to be gone
These are just a handful of the Democrats whose political careers Obama has destroyed! By the end of 2010 dozens more will be! In December of 2008 the Democrats were on the rise. In the last two election cycles they had picked up 14 senate seats and 52 house seats. The press was touting the death of the Conservative Movement and the Republican Party. In just one year, Obama put a stop to all of this and will probably give the house, if not the senate back to the Republicans.
4. He has completely exposed liberals and progressives for what they are. Every generation seems to need to relearn the lesson on why they should never actually put liberals in charge. He is bringing home the lesson very well!
>Leftist-Liberals tax, borrow and spend - check
>Leftist-Liberals won't bring themselves to protect America - check
>Leftist-Liberals want to take over the economy - check
>Leftist Liberals think they know what is best for everyone - check
>Leftist-Liberals aren't happy till they are running your life - check
5. He has brought more Americans back to conservatism than anyone since Reagan. In one year he rejuvenated the Conservative movement and brought out to the streets millions of freedom loving Americans. Name one other time in your life that you saw your friends and neighbors this interested in taking back America!
6. His amazing leadership has sparked the greatest period of sales of firearms and ammunition this country has seen. Law abiding citizens have rallied and have provided a "stimulus" to the sporting goods field while other industries have failed, faded or moved off-shore!
7. In all honesty one year ago I was more afraid than I had ever been in my life. Not of the economy but of the direction our country was going. I thought Americans had forgotten what this country was all about. My neighbors, friends, strangers proved to me that my lack of confidence of the greatness and wisdom of the American people was flat out wrong.
8. When the American people wake up, no smooth talking teleprompter reader can fool them! Barak Obama woke up these great Americans! Again I want to say 'Thank you Barak Obama!' This is exactly the kind of hope and change we desperately needed.
Now, if only God be with us...God bless America!!

Straight shooters!
I realize that all grandparents are proud of their grandkids, except for the incorrigible 3 % kids. Even they are loved by caring grandparents. Jeanie and I are so proud of each of ours and each for a varitey of reasons.
I recently read "Happy Trails" a book chronicling the lives of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans. We are proud that RR was a native of Duck run , 12 miles west of Portsmouth, 'the city' to Roy. I have also read much about Annie Oakley, the Greenville, Ohio farm girl. Both Annie and Roy became sharp shooters of game to help their families eat.
Our Tobey Kegley, Jay's 13 year old and soon to be 14 in July, doesn't shoot game but she pitches fast pitch softball so well that she strikes out many of the opposing batters and hits the other fast pitch pitchers so well that it feeds us fans who love her so much. She plays all positions assigned to her with moxie a thing my good friend, Dick Klitch, has always had in excess.
God blessed Roy and Dale as they raised many kids of a variety of health issues and he has blessed us lesser grandparents, Sam & Jeanie, with great grandkids such as Morgan, Ida Scout, Will and Daniel Allen (Jeff's wife Suzy's great athletic sons) and we didn't forget Tobey above.

Comments (3)Paul Stagg on May 10th, 2010 7:39 pm So, you're upset because government money comes with strings attached?
The real question "conservatives" should be asking:
Why is the federal government buying old people lunch?
Doug on May 10th, 2010 7:53 pm Why is the federal government buying old people lunch?
I don't disagree, but a similarly intriguing question for me is "Why is the government so threatened by prayers?" I decided to start with the last one first.
Mark1957 on May 11th, 2010 12:49 pm If federal subsidies bar the recipients from their right to pray, then nobody will be allowed to pray. The government subidizes nearly every crop grown in this country. Will those who recieve Medicare be denied their right to pray? Will I have to remove the plastic Jesus from my dashboard if I drive on a public road? The right ( and duty ) to pray comes from God, not from man or the government ! I will pray anywhere that I want to, and if they try to stop me I will beat them senseless, then I will pray again for forgiveness.

The real question "conservatives" should be asking:
Why is the federal government buying old people lunch?

I don't disagree, but a similarly intriguing question for me is "Why is the government so threatened by prayers?" I decided to start with the last one first.
Mark1957 on May 11th, 2010 12:49 pm If federal subsidies bar the recipients from their right to pray, then nobody will be allowed to pray. The government subidizes nearly every crop grown in this country. Will those who recieve Medicare be denied their right to pray? Will I have to remove the plastic Jesus from my dashboard if I drive on a public road? The right ( and duty ) to pray comes from God, not from man or the government ! I will pray anywhere that I want to, and if they try to stop me I will beat them senseless, then I will pray again for forgiveness.
