Cold, Hard Facts About Illegal Immigration:

Posted by The Ice Princess on Monday, May 12, 2008 5:33:20 PM
Why aren't we disgusted?
 
MOST of us (legal U.S. citizens) are against illegal immigration and want a serious reform before we lose our country. The future of our nation is at stake! This is NOT a race issue, like the bleeding hearts would lead us to believe. Race is absolutely irrelevant to me, if you are here legally. If you are here illegally, you are a criminal. IT IS CRIMINAL TO STEAL IDs and ID theft is almost impossible to do without if you live here illegally. Do you truly believe that IF somebody steals your ID they will ONLY use it to work and not cause you financial difficulties? If so, I'm sorry, but you are naïve or stupid! Not to mention, there are about 9,000 Americans MURDERED per year by illegals. One or more of every thirty illegal aliens has deportation orders that cannot be carried out, since they cannot be found. These orders are due to criminal activity. These are ONLY the ones that have been caught in a crime.  
 
You hear the Democrats screaming about the American deaths in Iraq, but they unanimously vote in a way that increases illegal immigration. We have DRASTICALLY LESS deaths of Americans in Iraq than we have at the hands of illegals. However, when you go to war, you are a hero, dying for our country. When you are killed by an illegal, you are simply an ignored statistic, shunned by Democrats as if it never happened. Ironically it is costing us more to play all-too-gracious host to these criminals than it is to liberate Iraq. In L.A., 95% of all outstanding warrants for murder (1,200 to 1,500) are for illegal aliens. Why so many? Because the lack of legal registration in our country makes them impossible to track or find.
 
We must stop all of the illegal immigration and return the ones here to Mexico, with our votes in the general election. There is NO REASON to immigrate illegally in a country like the U.S. When somebody does choose to come here illegally, it is usually because: They are convicted felons with no right to leave their country (and we don't need any more criminals); They are wanted in Mexico or the U.S. for other crimes; They don't want to be here legally, because of a lack of intent to follow our laws; They have a contagious disease; They are drug-addicts; OR: They have family members that fit one or all of the prior three. Those are the things that restrict them from getting a green card and applying for citizenship.
 
Contrary to liberal beliefs, illegal immigrants DO NOT PAY INCOME TAXES. There is no way they can pay income taxes without a STOLEN IDENTITY. If they chose to pay taxes with their stolen identity, they would be at risk of being caught and deported. They do not own homes, meaning they do not pay property taxes. In many cases, they live fifty to a small home, which doesn't help the rental market. These homes are often destroyed without any punishment. There is no way to track somebody who isn't registered. They cannot register a vehicle, have a driver's license or insurance in most states and WE pay for it in our insurance prices. When they get pulled over and receive a ticket, they don't need to pay it, because technically they don't exist. They clog our emergency rooms, receiving health care for viruses or small issues, at emergency room prices and never have to pay. Who does pay? Our healthcare costs go up. Our insurance prices go up. Our waiting time goes up. Many (somehow) get food stamps, Medicaid and other welfare. In turn they siphon tax dollars, jobs and other revenue from our system without paying back. They are here COMPLETELY without accountability!
 
My children go to school five days a week for an inferior education, due to the children who are brought here illegally. Their parents are criminals and it is obvious that a criminal's child(ren) usually doesn't understand right from wrong, because their parents don't teach them. The more illegals at your child's school, the more packed their classes will be, the more need for special education programs there will be, the more free lunches there will be, etc., etc. and all without a dime going into the schools from their parents. Have you checked your children's credit scores lately? Of course not. How would they have credit scores as children? Well, in AZ alone there have been more than 1.1 million identities stolen from American children. How do you think this affects us?
 
Many Americans will cry foul on America, claiming that we stole TX, AZ, NM, CA and parts of other states from Mexico. In reality, we acquired these states shortly after Mexico obtained it's freedom from Spain. At that point, Texas decided to secede from Mexico and become a part of America. Mexico waged war on the U.S. To end the war, Mexico offered to sell that territory to America for $15 million. America later bought a small strip of land from Mexico (that they were told they already owned in the first agreement) for $50 million dollars. $65 million for these pieces of land was a LOT of money then. Now many Mexican gang-bangers want to take it back. We live in fear of their violence. We are afraid to speak out in public; making us appear to be the minority in thinking "We must take back our nation!"

A History Lesson

Posted by The Ice Princess on Monday, May 12, 2008 1:00:00 PM
Democrats- The Party of the people throughout American history?? Really??
 
Quite contrary to the claims of the Democrats, from the inception of their party, they have always been about BIG Government, taking complete power, increased taxation and they have NEVER been for true civil rights. They threw civil rights on their ticket, due to being the champions for gay rights, abortion rights and supporters of the sexual revolution. They have also taken up the cause of the Atheist, by saying that the 1-3% of children of Atheists in our nation should not be burdened by hearing even the slightest whisper about God in school. They warped the words of the Constitution and created false doctrine about it's contents. They called this false doctrine- separation of Church and State. There is actually NO such item in the Constitution.
 
Everything they started out to represent, they took a giant leap too far. Abortion, for example became legal all of the way through the 9th (YES, that is a nine) month of pregnancy. (The Republican Party has tried vehemently to put a stop to this, except if the life of the Mother is in danger.) They (Democrats) define it to be legal up until the baby is actually out of the birth canal. Well, we can see that they are CERTAINLY NOT the party for the little people!
 
As for the equal rights that were once given to minorities by the REPUBLICAN PARTY, they (Democrats) have taken them to a point where they remove rights from whites and Asians (despite Asians being one of the smallest numbers in the U.S.). They say that the other minorities deserve special privileges due to lower intelligence and Asians are smart, so they don't need hand-outs. I would be greatly offended by the Democrats if I were a minority. They are not only still treating minorities unfairly with that, but they are also treating non-minorities unfairly.
 
Civil rights by definition- A broad range of privileges and rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution and subsequent amendments and laws that guarantee fundamental freedoms to all individuals. These freedoms include the rights of free expression and action (civil liberties); the right to enter into contracts, own property, and initiate lawsuits; the rights of due process and equal protection of the laws; opportunities in education and work; the freedom to live, travel, and use public facilities wherever one chooses; and the right to participate in the democratic political system.
 
Now for a HISTORY lesson:
 

Before our 7th President, the Democrats and Republicans were a part of the Democratic-Republican Party. At the split of the party, the National Republican Party was led by John Quincy Adams. As they do now, the Democrats represented big government and liberal lifestyle. The National Republican Party, later known as the Whig Party, then later again as The Republican Party, were the Conservatives, defending the Constitution as it was written. John Quincy Adams should know what the Constitution was meant to stand for, as the eldest son of John Adams: 2nd president; a strong supporter of The Declaration of Independence, etc., who was originally chosen to author it. He passed the honor on to Jefferson. 


DEMOCRATS and REPUBLICANS throughout U.S. history:

        

Andrew Jackson (7th President- 1st Democrat) -One of his first acts was to come in and fire 2,000 old office holders and replace them with people who would not oppose him. This self-made (or should I say marriage-made man with a 7th grade education, became President, since he married into an elite family with nothing of his own. He fought hard to take power away from individual states and to give more power to the federal government. He was known for dueling and killing his opponents (today known as murder) and when he left office as President, he growled that his sole regret had been his failure to shoot Clay and hang Calhoun. How Classy??
 
Martin Van Buren (8th President- 2nd Democrat)-Two months into his presidency a severe Depression began. In his platform, he stated "... it would be impolite to exercise the power of abolishing slavery in the District of Columbia. and ... I prefer a system of direct taxation to the present one of collecting duties by imposts on goods imported...". In other words, he prefers a personal income tax instead of a tax system that taxes the purchase of goods. Thanks to things like that, we are now taxed on both.
 
William Henry Harrison (9th President- [Whig] 1st true Republican)-A war hero, who recaptured Detroit from Canada, died one month into his Presidency of pneumonia.
 
John Tyler (10th President- [Whig- Sorta'] 2nd official Republican)-Was the elected V.P. of Harrison. Unfortunately, Tyler was a Southern Democrat who changed parties to run with Harrison. He tried to destroy the Whig (Republican) party by vetoing Bills priorly agreed upon and acting like a tyrant. He was the first official RINO (back then I guess it would be a WINO. He was the first president in history that Congress attempted Impeachment proceedings on.
 
James K. Polk (11th President- 3rd [maybe 4th, if you count Tyler] Democrat)-Went to war with Mexico after Texas voluntarily annexed themselves to become a part of America in 1845. There were 1,733 American casualties in this SHORT-lived war. Then, despite winning the war, purchased CA, NM and AZ, along with the extension of TX from Mexico. Also came to an agreement with Britain on Oregon Territory. He was known as being more interested in issues than in people and as a hard worker, but suspicious. Aren't they all?
 
Zachary Taylor (12th President- [Whig] 2nd true Republican)-A war hero, who was known for a big part of the responsibility of winning the Mexican-American War. He Died in office after only 16 months. He fought to have freedoms and governance returned to the states. He was criticized for his opinions on the injustice of slavery.
 
Millard Fillmore (13th President- [Whig] 3rd Republican)-A lawyer, who as president opened trade with Japan. He tried to avoid civil unrest breaking out as the West tried to obtain rights to slavery. He did not allow these rights to slavery in the West and stuck to the Missouri Compromise.
 
Franklin Pierce (14th President- Democrat) -A lawyer, who opposed prior rulings on the matter of slavery in the West. He passed the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1854, which was in direct violation of the Missouri Compromise. It allowed a vote in the Western territories on whether to be free or slave. He also negotiated The Gadsden Purchase. This caused internal fighting amongst the Western settlers. He earned the reputation as a pro-slavery Yankeeand was NOT re-elected.
 
James Buchanan (15th President- Democrat) -After his Presidency, the more Conservative Democrats, who wanted to limit slavery joined with The Whig Party, who wanted civil rights for all and became The Republican Party. Buchanan was a lawyer, who clamed he wouldn't cause further unrest where the slavery issue was concerned. During his Presidency, the Supreme Court said that the legislation of slavery was a state issue and denied the slave Dred Scott the right to plead his case in court. This gave slave states MORE representation within the union. His Vice President tried to have him kidnapped to throw the nation into confusion, so that he may stop the impending civil war and keep slavery, by being able to defeat Lincoln.
 
Abraham Lincoln (16th President- REPUBLICAN)-A lawyer, said "A house divided against itself cannot stand." Meaning that we cannot have both slave and free states. He felt that keeping a man as property was wrong. After nearly two years of fighting the Civil War, Lincoln issued his Emancipation Proclamation- freeing the slaves. There were 140,414 battle related American deaths of the Union Army, the majority white, in this attempt to protect the rights of blacks. Lincoln was MURDERED by a RADICAL liberal DEMOCRAT actor.
 
Andrew Johnson (17th President- Democrat) -(took over for Lincoln) A tailor, who felt that the South deserved NO punishmentfor taking up arms and fighting against the North on the issue of slavery, was the first President impeached.
 
Ulysses S. Grant (18th President- REPUBLICAN) - A war hero and graduate of West Pointe, helped the North win over the pro-slavery South in the Civil War "Unconditional Surrender Grant". Served as President for 8 years, but was known as too honest and said to be naive about other politicians. In 1872 the REPUBLICAN PARTY came out in favor of WOMEN's RIGHTS, known as The Women's Suffrage Association.
 
Rutherford B. Hayes (19th President- REPUBLICAN)-A lawyer and a war hero, who ran an honest administration.  They were known for practicing what they preached and were very proper Conservatives. He signed an Act permitting women to serve as Supreme Court Lawyers and later addressed the rights of black men to vote. He chose not to run for a second term and returned to his home state to devote his time to social reform, education, and veterans' affairs.
 
James A. Garfield (20th President- REPUBLICAN) -A lawyer, who was the youngest brigadier General in the civil war, became yet another Republican to die shortly after taking office, in about 6 months. His mother was a singing evangelist. He hoped to pass civil service reform, but was gunned down before he had the chance.
 
Chester A. Arthur (21st President- REPUBLICAN) -A lawyer, who once taking over the Garfield administration prosecuted one of the greatest frauds on the Federal Government ever- The Star Route Frauds, where misappropriations within the post office cost the government $4,000,000. He created the Civil Service Commission and completed the civil service reform Garfield wanted to see through. Opposite the Hayes administration they were frowned upon for their social life and the Party did not re-nominate him.       
 
Grover Cleveland (22nd and 24th President- Democrat) -A lawyer, who married a 21 year old when he was 49, was the first elected Democrat, since the civil war. He was believed to be elected because the Republicans chose a bad candidate, who was involved in financial scandal. Therefore many Republicans said they would vote for a Democrat IF they would nominate an honest man. Reformed the government and pushed forward with the civil service reform of the Arthur Administration. He was one of the only Democrats ever to reduce tariffs. Unfortunately, he would NOT do so well in his second term. During which there was a depression, a railroad strike and hundreds of banks failed. He did nothing to improve business or provide employment. During his second term, 4 states gave women voting privileges.  
 
Benjamin Harrison (23rd President- REPUBLICAN) -A lawyer, who was the grandson of the 9th President (The first true Republican). The Party was called the Whig Party at the time. Described as dignified, honest and conscientious, he started Civil War pensions and opened OK for settlement. His administration passed the McKinley Tariff Act and Sherman Silver Purchase Act. He started a vigilant and unrelenting pursuit of the wealthy who hid property to in order to avoid taxes. He brought electricity to the White House. He was known for Faith, long family prayers and bringing dancing back to the White House. 
 

William McKinley (25th President- REPUBLICAN) -A lawyer, who was a Major in the Union Army during the Civil War. He was a devoted husband and father. He was described as moral, strong in character and a man of the people. He went to war with Spain (The Spanish-American War) in Cuba for committing atrocities on Cuba. Only 100 days into the war, Spain indicated willingness to compromise. There were only 385 battle related American deaths, as a result of this war. They granted Cuba Independenceand Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines were ceded to the United States. He worked on uniting the North and the South. AGAIN, another REPUBLICAN was ASSASSINATED and died in office, shortly into his second term. As you are well aware, the people shooting these presidents are the opposition, not their own parties. That proves those liberal in values to be more violent. In one of his speeches, he spoke of what REPUBLICANS today still know "..we should never abandon the simple faith in Almighty Godas recognized in the name of the American people by Washington and the first Congress." he also reiterated Washington's message on foreign policy: "Observe good faith and justice toward all nations; cultivate peace and harmony with all; religion and morality enjoin this conduct." Boy would he and Washington be disappointed today! Does that speech sound like our founding father's wanted a separation of church and state? His Presidency was one of the most flawless in all of history.


Theodore Roosevelt (26th President- REPUBLICAN) -(Teddy Bear), A Harvard graduate, who was known as tender-hearted. He inspired that nickname when he went hunting and refused to shoot a bear cub in his sites.  Stuffed animal companies got the idea of the teddy Bear from him. He took over for McKinley after his assassination and served two terms. He built dams to irrigate the West. He started the departments of Labor and Commerce and fought to preserve FORESTS and WILDLIFE. He is credited for the building of The Panama canal. He strengthened our armed forces. He pushed through his "Square-Deal" program, which was a form of social reform. It broke apart unfair or bad trusts and established good ones. It was done as a way of protecting the working class from exploitation by big business. It also helped to promote small business and stop bribery in contracts with business such as the railroad.

William H. Taft (27th President- REPUBLICAN) -A lawyer and a Yale graduate, he was known as Big Bill. He kept up with policies of the Roosevelt administration. He admitted the states of AZ and NM into the U.S. They were no longer a part of a territory and their settlement truly began. He established The Tariff Board to limit tariffs allowed on imported goods. He was responsible for 45 indictments under Anti-Trust Law.  There were also 22 civil suits brought against the crooked corporations. During his Presidency, as a result of his pro-Women's Rights stance, many states gave women voting rights. It was seemingly a trial for what's to come. He started the ball rolling for women to vote and thought it better to wait until women were more in agreement and more involved in political process, so that they may better understand what they will be voting for. He was admittedly not interested in the power of the Presidency and wished to retire from office.
 
Woodrow Wilson (28th President- Democrat) -A lawyer and teacher, educated at Princeton, he passed the Underwood-Simmons Tariff Act of 1913, the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Clayton Anti-Trust Act, and the Child Labor Act. He waged war on Germany during World War 1, during his second term, despite promising to keep us out of war, during his first. There were 53,513 battle related American deaths. He dreamed of forming a League of Nations (like the U.N.- what a disaster- and a biblical prophecy). He convinced Europe to create such a league. The United States Senate was LUCKILY dominated by the Republican Party after the 1918 election and voted against the Treaty of Versailles on March 19, 1920, averting American participation in the League of Nations. Wilson collapsed from a cerebral thrombosis and ended up in a coma for days. He was a near invalid during the last 18 months of his presidency. That cost him the chance to battle Senate for a chance to belong to the League of Nations. Thank God! It's a shame FDR would pursue it later. After he was an invalid, the two houses passed through Women's Suffrage. Now women could finally vote, despite the Democrats opposition. 
 
Warren G. Harding (29th President- REPUBLICAN) -An Editor, who became President shortly after WWI. He refused cooperation with The League of Nations. He didn't want to be a part of a bigger unit that could dictate war to a free nation. He called the Washington Arms Conference of Nov. 11, 1921. The Five Power Naval Treaty was the result. Although, his organization had a reputation of corruption, he saved us from the major mistake of joining what would later end up being the U.N. He died half way through his first term, after hearing stories about corruption. He was supposedly an honest man that was so bothered by a media story of his corruption that he went weak and died.
 
Calvin Coolidge (30th President- REPUBLICAN) -A lawyer, who worked to reduce government spending once he was president. He replaced Harding after his death and then served a second term. He was willing to provide assistance for those unable to obtain employment due to inability to work, but felt those healthy and mentally capable should take care of themselves. He attempted to reduce the national debt. He reduced taxes. An agreement between 15 nations The Kellogg-Briand Pact passed to substitute arbitration for war. This was an agreement to get together and talk things over, instead of waging war if anything went wrong. It was not a League of Nations, where we could be dictated into or not to go into war. It was known as "the Roaring 20s" and business was booming. During this boom, people became frivolous spenders, so he opted not to run again for fear of what would come.
 
Herbert Hoover (31st President- REPUBLICAN) -An engineer, who was a multi-millionaire and a truly caring person. After WWI, he personally (with his money) fed and clothed millions of Belgians who were victims of the German invasion in 1914. He got the largest majority of the vote since Washington. As Coolidge warned there was an economic crash in 1929. Many banks closed. The Democrats capitalized on the collapse, in an effort to take back power, just as they do today. Today, they have caused the crashes in our economy with their Overtaking of the two houses. The Great Depression was a direct result of the U.S. aiding European Nations, fighting in the war against Germany and overspending. We were responsible for the lives of 5 million orphans and waifs, in Europe, as a result of WWI entered into under the guidance of Wilson. He cared for the children of every race and nationality with absolute equality.
 
Franklin D. Roosevelt (32nd President- Democrat) -A farmer and a lawyer, who took the liberty as his first act in office to close the remaining banks. Talk about the government taking power. This administration was known as the "New Deal" administration and Bill after Bill was passed. There were so many of these long named Bills, which were shortened to their initials, that critics who said the Bills were useless called them alphabet soup. The national debt increased to HIGHER than EVER before. There had been some military cutbacks in an attempt to fix the economy; meanwhile Hitler was on the march. Despite the national debt, there was a false sense of security about the improving economy. WWII was on the way. On December 7, 1941 we were bombed on our own soil, due to a military with a false sense of security and not enough strength to fight it off, at Pearl Harbor. An entire U.S. fleet of ships, many plains and ground equipment were destroyed. The loss of lives was countless, but typical in a time when America is not watching her borders due to military weakness. 291,557 Americans died in battle as a result of WWII and over a million total deaths and injuries of Americans as a result of the war. 30,314 went missing. Over 60 million people in total, the majority of them civilians, were killed, making it the deadliest conflict in human history. The term "United Nations" was suggested by Franklin D. Roosevelt and Winston Churchill as a way of replacing The League of Nations, during World War II. It appeared in the Declaration by the United Nations where, on January 1, 1942, 26 nations pledged to continue fighting the Axis powers. [The U.N. has been used as a vessel to allow the rein of lesser nations in what they see as American unilateralism, since we were seen as the world super-power. They proved that in their lack of empathy when America was attacked in 2001. The cohesion of the world's super power with nations of much less military power has been a 'short end of the stick' deal for the U.S.] He died at the end of his 3rd term.
 
Harry S. Truman (33rd President- Democrat) -A farmer and a businessman, who served 9 years in office. On April 30, 1953 Hitler shot himself, likely as a result of a major troop surrender. As a result of Hitler's death, Germany surrendered on May 7, 1953. The United States then dropped atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima (August 6) and Nagasaki (August 9). On August 8, the Soviets invaded Japanese-held Manchuria, as agreed at Yalta. On August 15, 1945, Japan surrendered, ending the war. Truman was best known for the President who dropped the BOMB. He dropped an atomic bomb on Japan, killing countless, estimated between 350,000 to 400,000, many were innocent citizens, and as many as 50,000 were in Japan from Korea and making much of the area uninhabitable to this day. There is much speculation that the Muslim world actually studied the affects of the Atomic bomb dropped on Japan in an attempt to have the same affect on Israel and Western civilization. Did this really get them started? The Russians also became more interested in this nuclear power, sending spies to America to steal technology. Then the Cold War broke out with Russia. Shortly after the Korean War started, which was AMERICA becoming involved in a civil war in another country. There were 33,746 American battle related deaths, as a result. 8,177 were missing. Irony: they call Republicans war-mongers.
 
Dwight D. Eisenhower (34th President- REPUBLICAN) -An army officer, who had a nation to rebuild out of the ashes of several recent wars. He ENDED the Korean War. Then he started desegregating the school systems. He said "There must be NO second class citizens." Ironically, you would hear Democrats taking the credit for desegregation. He was said to be the most loved President since Washington. "I like Ike" was the slogan of the day. Ike was his nickname. He officially made Hawaii and Alaska states and added their stars to the flag.
 
John F. Kennedy (35th President- Democrat) -An Author and naval officer, who continued on the civil rights path paved for him by the Republicans of the past. Unlike most Democrats, he encouraged military strategy. He was also big on foreign aide and interested in space exploration. Unfortunately, he was much like Clinton in his habits as a philanderer and he only lasted two years before being murdered. Therefore, nobody knew if he could have finished any of the jobs he started. Could he have gotten us out of or through Vietnam in a better way than his V.P.?
 
Lyndon B. Johnson (36th President- Democrat) -A teacher and navy commander, who continued the policies of Kennedy and pushed through much social reform. During his Presidency, a new Democrat cause arose- ABORTION. It became legal to kill your child and your baby was now considered a tumor, or foreign growth inside of you. About a year after taking office, he got America involved in yet another country's civil war (Vietnam). This got America involved in a battle that would last for 9 years, where 53,402 Americans died in battle, 10,796 died in the war due to non-battle causes, 2,489 soldiers went missing (with rumor of being held as slaves until death) and 153,302 were injured. I subtracted one, because I don't count John Kerry's hangnail as an injury. During the Vietnam War, many soldiers were able to be killed because President Johnson sent them in with orders not to shoot. Many U.S. soldiers were captured, held prisoner and tortured. One example is Presidential candidate John McCain.
 
Richard M. Nixon (37th President- REPUBLICAN) -A lawyer, who became president during the Vietnam War. He ENDED The Vietnam War. He was a well respected Vice President under Eisenhower and was known as very moral. He was elected twice. He made attempts through trips to China and the Soviet Union to make peace in our nation. Unfortunately, there was corruption in his administration. Somebody broke into and stole files from the Democratic National Committee headquarters in the Watergate building. He was recorded speaking to the person who did this afterwards and did not report him, out of fear of scandal. Instead, it created a greater scandal and a threat of impeachment. His Vice-President Ford, had no involvement, so he just retired to save the country the scandal and the money of an impeachment hearing. This was an unselfish move, since most who knew the details thought he'd be cleared of wrong-doing.
 
Gerald R. Ford (38th President- REPUBLICAN) -A lawyer, who took over the remaining years of the Nixon administration. He attempted to restore America's faith in government, with his honesty, warmth and openness. America was still recovering from the recent Vietnam War and even other wars, so there was an energy crisis, inflation and an unemployment problem. He fought hard for and supported the Equal Rights Amendment. He was not able to restore American trust in the party and never served a full term. He lost, despite a tough fight for the presidency against Carter.
 
James (Jimmy) E. Carter (39th President- Democrat) -An idiot, peanut farmer, engineer and scientist, who destroyed our national security. He was known for causing great unrest in Iran and other middle-Eastern nations. Although he honestly tried and was likely a good person, he failed miserably with his approach to foreign policy. The real unrest in the Middle-East began during his administration and he did not know how to deal with it when Iran took many American hostages (52 American diplomats) in the American Embassy and threatened to execute them. He allowed a group of students to take over the American Embassy in Iran and some said he told them not to defend the embassy with force. Carter could not negotiate their release and refused to go in after them. As a result, the Middle-East decided that America was weak, unable and unwilling to defend ourselves when confronted. Before this, the Carter Administration was supplying Iran with weapons, under the rule of the Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi In Iran. Then he was overthrown. When he was overthrown, Carter decided to allow the Shah to come and take refuge in the U.S. He was charged with atrocities in Iran and had a death sentence placed on him. Since Carter allowed him here, he put that same death sentence on the U.S. Hence, we had the Hostage crisis. The crisis is thought to have strengthened the prestige of the Ayatollah Khomeini and consolidated the hold of anti-Americanism and Iranian radicals. They considered this evidence of America plotting the downfall of the Ayatollah. He also got us involved to minor degree in the El Salvador civil war, but didn't know what to do about it. Inflation was at an all-time high. Jimmy Carter has even recently been fraternizing with terrorists.
 
Ronald Reagan (40th President- REPUBLICAN) -An actor, who surprised our nation by taking the Presidency with an electoral vote of 489 to 49. He started negotiating the release of the hostages BEFORE even taking office. The hostages were released on his inauguration day January 20, 1981. By 1984 he SLOWED inflation to a crawl. The average American's spending power increased by 10%, but the national debt climbed. That was partly due to his need to rebuild our military, because of a middle-East and Soviet threat. He also started the Star Wars program in an attempt to defend our country from space. Reagan was shot by John Hinckley Jr. in an assassination attempt in 1981. He surprised the nation and pulled through to lead our nation like none other before and to help us insure a time of peace. 1983 U.S. Embassy bombing was a suicide bombing against the United States Embassy in Beirut, Lebanon on April 18, 1983 that killed over 60 people, 29 Americans. A pro-Iranian group calling itself the Islamic Jihad ("Holy War") Organization took responsibility for the bombing in a telephone call to a news office immediately after the blast. The anonymous caller said, "This is part of the Iranian revolution's campaign against imperialist targets throughout the world." [They are currently still operating in Iran and making threats on our nation and others. They are responsible for the influx of violence in Iraq. If we pull out of Iraq now, they have already said they will bring the violence to America.] On April 18 Ronald Reagan denounced the "vicious terrorist bombing" as a "cowardly act," saying, "This criminal act on a diplomatic establishment will not deter us from our goals of peace in the region." Later in 1983 241 marines were killed by terrorists in Lebanon, at a marine barracks that was bombed. Thanks Jimmy! Despite all of this, he went on to peace negotiations with the Soviet Union, ending the Cold War He was also credited with the negotiations that liberated Russia, ending the communist rule within the next few years and other actions leading to the fall of the Berlin Wall and the end of Communism in Germany in the beginning of Bush's Presidency.
 
George H. W. Bush (41st President- REPUBLICAN) -A Businessman and Yale graduate, who had a tough actor to follow! However, he continued peace talks started by Reagan and the Berlin Wall fell. Then within 2 years the Soviet Union dissolved. As a result, it ended communism in Germany and Russia. Foreign policy was important to the Bush administration. He conducted a successful operation in Panama. In 1990, Iraq (led by Saddam Hussein) invaded Kuwait, in a greedy desire for oil. King Fahd, of Saudi Arabia requested US military aid, fearing possible invasion of his country also. Kuwait and Saudi Arabia are both allies to America. The U.N. Security Council opposed to Iraq's violence, Congress authorized the use of military force. We entered the Persian Gulf and attacked Iraq, with VERY FEW (148) American casualties. Iraq surrendered and at the insistence of the U.N., we did not go after Saddam for his war crimes. Instead he agreed to U.N. regulations, inspections and to stop his manufacturing of WMD. America wanted to go forward and stop his cruel reign, prosecuting him for his war crimes and prior human rights violations, but instead cooperated with the U.N. He lost his chance at re-election, due to far right Conservatives, like Newt Gingrich, who were not interested in his Moderate Republican style. He wanted a peaceful world and without trashing our American value system, he worked with both side. The far Right did not like this and threw Robertson and Perot into the mix. This caused a split in the Republican vote and handed the election to:
 
William J. Clinton (39th President- Democrat) - A lawyer, who was a well-known philanderer. He brought perversion and immorality to the forefront of the highest office in the world and made a mockery of the United States. One of his first acts as president was to order the invasion and an open-fire strike against a religious cult of a radical branch of seventh day Adventists in Waco TX.  Instead of doing what is necessary to protect the women and children, [like they are currently doing in El Dorado] he ordered a raid, led by General Wesley Clark (`04 Democratic Presidential candidate). 82 people were killed, most were women or children led astray by a sick man. He cut our military during a time of MUCH threatened terrorism, but hid these threats well from the United States citizens, in his normal dishonest, charismatic style. This left us with the appearance of safety and economic stability. He passed through NAFTA, which garnered criticism, due to lower standards of goods like food that would enter the U.S. without our inspection standards. He legalized PARTIAL BIRTH ABORTION and found it to be a woman's right[?] to abort a viable baby clear through (9th month) the time of labor.He then attempted to allow those who are openly gay to serve side by side with straight men and women in the military, which would go against the reason they split men and women in the first place. It prevents sexual distractions. Gays in the military would cause dissension among the straight men, especially in a time when they have no pricy, like showers, etc. Therefore, even liberals could not allow this and in compromise adopted a "Don't ask, don't tell" policy. He issued Executive Order 13011 -Federal Information Technology, ordering the heads of all federal agencies to fully open information technology to make the information of the agency easily accessible to the press and the public. This was criticized because of a threat to national security. Clinton signed the Brady Bill, which goes against our 2nd Amendment rights. Let us not forget that 9/11, didn't need to happen. Osama bin Laden had been responsible for several terrorist attacks on the U.S., here and abroad (which I can't get into, due to the number of Clinton atrocities) during the Clinton administration. He was given three chances to either take out bin Laden or have him turned over to him from Sudan. He turned down every chance. Bill and Hillary were accused of a real estate scam, nicknamed Whitewater-gate, where the investors and the government were both defrauded. The term Whitewater is also sometimes used to include other controversies from the Bill Clinton administration, especially those such as Travelgate, Filegate, and the circumstances surrounding Vince Foster's death, that were investigated by the Whitewater Independent Counsel. Travelgate was the first major scandal of the Clinton administration, where seven longtime employees of the White House Travel Office were fired supposedly due to financial improprieties in the office operation. However, it was later proven that it was to allow personal friends to take over the positions and there were accusations that it was done as a way to embezzle money. First Lady Hillary Clinton gradually came under scrutiny for allegedly having played a central role in the firings and making false statements about her role in it. There was insufficient evidence to prosecute her. The White House FBI files controversy of the Clinton Administration, often referred to in the press as Filegate, came to light in 1996. It was improper access in 1993 and 1994 to FBI security-clearance documents. Craig Livingstone, the director of the White House's Office of Personnel Security, illegally requested and received FBI background reports without permission of the individuals and information may have been leaked or used in a destructive way against the subjects. Estimates range from 400 to 900 unauthorized file disclosures. The incident caused much criticism, because many of the files covered employees from previous Republican administrations. This was MORE invasive than the original Watergate scandal and the Clinton's were involved from the beginning, but destroyed evidence and therefore never indicted. Vince Foster was a Deputy White House Counsel during the first term of President Bill Clinton. He was also a law partner and friend of Hillary. His death was ruled a suicide, but remains a subject of interest among conspiracy theorists. He was a confidant, who was set to meet with Kenneth Starr regarding his investigation of the Clintons the next day. His wife claimed there was no way he was suicidal and was not even depressed. However, he had confided in her that he was scared that the Clinton's would have him murdered. He tried to send his family away to keep them safe. Before he could meet with Starr, he was found outside his home with a gun in his right hand and a bullet at a very awkward angle in his head.  He was LEFT handed. Hillary was said to have requested files and used them for political gain. William Kennedy, rapist and now politician was one of the people who were given access to these files. Despite all of the controversy, they were re-elected. On May 7, Clinton ordered a bombing in which, his bad information caused NATO bombs to hit the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade, killing three Chinese journalists and outraging Chinese public opinion. This nearly made an enemy of the Chinese and a war with China would destroy us. In his second term he was impeached by the U.S. House for perjury and obstruction of justice, but was subsequently acquitted by the United States Senate and completed his term. However, I'm uncertain why. He did not put the needs of the citizens above his own in the style of Nixon. His presidency was scandal after scandal, yet America bought his charisma hook, line and sinker. I haven't gotten into the number of military deaths during the Clinton administration being higher than the 2nd Bush administration in a time of war, nor other accused murders, or names of the multiple women he had sex with during his marriage and presidency, or the multitude of other evils he and HILLARY were involved in. There isn't enough time in a week to touch on it all. Unbelievable that America could consider electing his wife!
 
George W. Bush (43rd President- REPUBLICAN) -A businessman, who came into a presidency after the military had been torn apart by Bill Clinton. Shortly after, he was thrown into war. Clinton tore down the military so badly that we no longer had the capabilities to protect us during a time of attack. Unfortunately, Clinton left office without telling Bush of recent threats from Osama on the Twin Towers, White House and Pentagon. We went into Afghanistan in search of our attacker. We reformed the corrupt government and have not yet been able to find this cave dweller, who hopes for the fall of the Western world. Meanwhile, Saddam Hussein had not fulfilled the obligations entered into at the end of the Gulf War in 1991 to rid Iraq of all WMD. A series of inspections by the IAEA failed to find conclusive evidence that either proved or disproved that Iraq was developing or hiding them. The findings were conveyed by the leading weapons inspector, Hans Blix of Sweden, who noted Iraq's failure to cooperate with the inspections on several counts. There were rumors of an impending attack on the U.S. from Iraq. These rumors came from people who were seeking asylum, after being forced to help develop WMD for Saddam, at threat of their families lives. The U.S. replied by saying that the responsibility of proof of disarmament was upon Iraq, not on the UN or the U.S. Unfortunately U.N. deliberations about the impending war gave Saddam adequate time to move his weapons to a nearby country or to bury them in the many open areas in Iraq. We went in and successfully captured Saddam. The entire country was behind the war. Despite the country's approval of the war, the Democrats have used it as a tool against the GOP in the latest elections.  He reduced our taxes, lowered unemployment and revitalized our economy, despite being in a time of war. Unfortunately, our Congress and Senate were turned over to the Democrats and they have since destroyed any good legislation that has passed by them, in order to tear down the GOP in an attempt at the presidency in `08, with no regard for the people they are harming. If you take the time to look into what is going on in both houses, you would see the intentional sabotage. There were scandals during the presidency of the mistreatment of prisoners suspected of or guilty of terrorist acts. Bush has done more for Africa and the AIDS crisis than any other president. Unfortunately, they have tried to stop this too, saying that Africa does not need the STD education, but they need abortion clinics and condoms instead. He also fought for the rights of parents to be able to send their children to the school of their choice, instead of forcing them to accept inner city educations. It is the school voucher program. He added prescription drug coverage to Medicare, saving the elderly from choosing between prescriptions and food. In 2006 Bush declared the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands a national monument, creating the largest marine reserve to date. Bush announced that the U.S. would commit $2 billion over the next three years towards a new international fund to promote clean energy technologies and fight climate change. He banned Partial Birth Abortion, except in cases of danger of maternal death when the baby cannot be saved. In the last year of this presidency, things are starting to go downhill in the U.S. Bush has taken the blame very humbly and in the spirit of his father, without finger-pointing. Unfortunately, his kindness is causing more dissention in the party. He is not the cause of this. Until 2006, when the Democrats took over both Senate and Congress, we were doing better as a nation than ever and we were optimistic. Now this party was hijacked and as usual, the media would lead the nation to believe that we are the cause of the problems. If you don't vote RIGHT in 2008, enjoy your LAST stimulus check and get another job, you'll need it to pay the new taxes.
 
Think about it!
 
Who can we really trust to protect our civil rights and to defend our country from terrorism in `08 and can we afford to risk a party split just to avoid a candidate who has voted liberally on 20% of issues?
 
God Bless!

Why would any Christian, black or white, male or female vote for a Democrat today?

Posted by The Ice Princess on Monday, May 12, 2008 12:00:00 PM

Why would any Christian, black or white, male or female vote for a Democrat today?

Bible Verses and facts to consider:

Isaiah 5:

20- Woe to those who call evil good
       and good evil,
       who put darkness for light
       and light for darkness,
       who put bitter for sweet
       and sweet for bitter.

Barack Obama- Abortions should be legally available in accordance with Roe v. Wade. He voted against banning partial birth abortion. He voted against the rights of parents to be notified if their minor child receives an abortion. He opposed a bill similar to the Born Alive Infant Protection Act, which prevents the killing of infants mistakenly left alive by abortion. Obama claimed he would not want his daughters to be "punished with a baby" because of a crisis pregnancy. He voted NO on constitutional ban of same-sex marriage. He voted to support granting driver's licenses  and social security benefits to illegal immigrants.

~Obama is rated 100% by the AU, indicating support of church-state separation

~Obama is rated 0% by the National Right to Life Commission (NRLC), indicating a 100% pro-choice stance.

He admittedly smokes cigarettes now; smoked some pot in high school and college.

There is MUCH more to tell!

Hillary Clinton- "I am and always have been pro-choice." She came down against Lacy's Law, criminalizing harm to a fetus during an attack on the mother. In other words if somebody murders a pregnant woman, the loss of the baby does not matter. She opposed a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage. She voted NO on notifying parents of minors who get out-of-state abortions.

~Hillary Clinton is rated 0% by the Christian Coalition: an anti-family voting record.

~Hillary Clinton is rated 100% by the AU, indicating support of church-state separation.

~Hillary Clinton is rated 0% by the National Right to Life Commission (NRLC), indicating a 100% pro-choice stance.

There are many other sinful deviant behaviors to speak of with her.

21 Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes
       and clever in their own sight.

22 Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine
       and champions at mixing drinks,

 23 who acquit the guilty for a bribe, (<CLICK HERE)
       but deny justice to the innocent.

The link has many criminal associates of the Clintons. Obama also has known association with criminals, such as Rezko, who raised over $150,000 for Obama's campaign.

McCain has been known for running a clean campaign and fighting for campaign finance reform to avoid future government office-holders from taking bribes as donations.

I Peter 2:12, "Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us." (NIV) 

Christians are supposed to do their very best to be better than the worldly liberal pagans, which is only one reason why I am fervently disagreeing with the way even the best of the GOP writers and bloggers have torn McCain to shreds with rhetoric and even false accusations of liberalism. He has his weak points, but he rates 80% Conservative, which is much better than the alternative. PLUS, he is a truly great person, with very high moral standards. You must also know that there will only be two choices on election day. A vote for a 3rd Party is a vote handed to the Democrats.

James 2:18, "But someone will say, 'You have faith; I have deeds.'Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do."(NIV)

That verse very clearly states that when your deeds are immoral you cannot truly be a person of Faith! Voting for a pro-abortion candidate is a deed, a bad deed.

To those who follow the Democrats and claim to share ideology and values of MLK- The generation of Hubert Humphrey and Martin Luther King spoke of building a beloved community that cared especially for the elderly, the weak, the disadvantaged and the young. He was not for the killing of the young. So when you support the Democrats of today, YOU DO NOT support the values of KING or the values of CHRIST in any way. To vote for somebody based on sex or color alone makes you a bigot and to vote for somebody who supports abortion and even infanticide is an Abomination.
