Who does Boots work for?

On 1/10/08 State Senator Phil Boots Released a news statement" Boots supports tough illegal immigration measures. Bill punishes those that profit from harboring, transporting or employing below-market cost labor" State senate Bill 335. Not a month later 1/28/08 he votes against and helps defeat that same bill! Who does Boots work for? That bill would have created jobs just by making it Illegal to employ unauthorized aliens in the county. It would punish the perpetrators of illegal employment, and dry up the market for it. This in it's self would be a huge step in stemming the flow of illegals into our country. But no Phil Boots voted against it. If he isn't working for us maybe we need to get someone who is!!

I must retract some of my above statement. Senator Phil Boots voted against an amendment to the bill not the bill. He in fact is still for the bill. I apologize to the Senator and to you!
At least that is what I think.

UP's 'n' DOWN's


Life has it’s up’s and down’s. It can be frustrating and demanding. You don’t have control over how long you will walk this earth, but you do have control over how you walk it. If your life seams like a roller coaster try putting the brakes on and slowing it down so you can look for the cause. Then you can change it. We all have control over our emotions, a lot of the time it seams they have control over us. If we let our emotions govern our lives totally then we are back on the coaster and heading for a bad ride. Try to keep things in perspective.

Using our emotions to flavor our walk in life not control it.

The Great Debate

It sure would be nice if all of the presidential candidates would have a debate or better yet a discussion about solutions to OUR problems. Just let the media broadcast the discussion, no questions, no moderator, no canned format and venue. Just open discussion about how each candidate would fix / solve the nations domestic problems. No foreign policy only domestic. How would they get the Legislative branch of our government focused on domestic solutions and getting the two parties working together for their boss (the people of America). Do you think that the candidates could discuss the pros / cons of their ideas and come up with solution proposals, or would their real selves come out and get in the way and it become a mud slinging contest like it is now. Do we really care what happened years ago or do we want to know the truth about how they will solve todays problems.

IN GOD WE TRUST


California is trying again! An atheist is trying to have "In GOD we trust" removed from US coins and bills. He said "the motto is an unconstitutional endorsement of religion"This same person tried to ban the pledge of Allegiance from the schools!
Congress authorized the reference to God on a two-cent piece in 1864, as stated in a MSNBC article, following a request by the director of the U.S.Mint. The director wrote there should be a "distinct and unequivocal national recognition of the divine sovereignty" on the nations coins.
In 1954 Congress inserted the words "under God" in the pledge of Allegiance, and a year later required all currency to carry the motto "In God We Trust".

As the signers of the Declaration of Independence state in three different areas of this document 1,We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights... 2,...appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions,... 3, And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
The signers of our Declaration of Independence call on a higher power to guide, support, and protect them in their endeavor to start our nation, how can we 2008 years later endeavor to remove this same guidance and protection from our nation?
If the citizens of the United States of America want this country to remain a strong free nation we need to stand up and be counted, stop the removal of God from our nation, and return to our roots of believing, and trusting in God for guidance, protection, and strength!
At least that is what I think.

What God Won't ask...


This was sent to me and I want to share it with all of you.


What God won't ask...

God won't ask what kind of car you drove, but He'll ask how many people you drove who didn't have transportation.

God won't ask the square footage of your house, but He'll ask how many people you welcomed into your home.

God won't ask about the clothes you had in your closet, but He'll ask how many you helped to clothe.
God won't ask what your highest salary was, but He'll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it.

God won't ask what your job title was, but He'll ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability.

God won't ask how many friends you had, but He'll ask how many people to whom you were a friend.

God won't ask in what neighborhood you lived, but He'll ask how you treated your neighbors.

God won't ask about the color of your skin, but He'll ask about the content of your character.

God won't ask why it took you so long to seek Salvation, but He'll lovingly take you to your mansion in heaven, and not to the gates of Hell.
God won't ask how many people you forwarded this to, but He'll ask if you were ashamed to pass it on to your friends.
