BRAZILIANS

The Secretary of Defense briefed the president
this morning. He told Bush that three brazillian
soliders had been killed in iraq.
to everyone's amazement, all the color ran from
Bush's face, visibly shaken.
finally he composed himself and asked:
"just exactly how many IS a bazillion??"

THE 545 PEOPLE

Politicians are the only people in the world who create
problems and then campaign against them.
Have you ever wondered why, if both the Democrats
and the Republicans are against deficits, we HAVE deficits?

Have you ever wondered why, if all the politicians are
against inflation and high taxes, we HAVE inflation and
high taxes?
You and I don't propose a federal budget. The president does.
You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote
on appropriations. The House of Representatives does....

You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does.
You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does.
You and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal
Reserve Bank does.

One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one president,
and nine Supreme Court justices 545 human beings out
of the 300 million are DIRECTLY, legally, morally, and
individually responsible for the domestic problems that
plague this country. I excluded the members of the
Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created
by the Congres!!
In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to
provide a SOUND currency to a federally chartered,
BUT PRIVATE, central bank.
I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a
sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have
no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a
president to do one cotton-picking thing.
I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars
in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it.
No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's
responsibility to determine how he votes. T

hose 545 human beings spend much of their energy
convincing you that what THEY did is not THEIR fault!!
They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.
What separates a politician from a normal human being
is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being
would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and
criticized the President for creating deficits!!
The president can ONLY propose a budget. He cannot
force the Congress to accept it.
The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land,
gives SOLE responsibility to the House of Representatives
for originating and approving appropriations and taxes.
Who is the speaker of the House? She is the leader of the
MAJORITY party!!
She and fellow House members, NOT the president,
can approve any budget they want. If the president
vetoes it, they CAN pass it over his veto if they agree
to.
It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300
million can not replace 545 people who stand
convicted -- by present facts -- of incompetence and
irresponsibility. I can't think of a single domestic
problem that is NOT traceable directly to those
545 people.
When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people
exercise the power of the federal government, then it
must follow that what exists is what they WANT to exist.
If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair.
If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red.
If the Marines are in IRAQ , it's because they want them
in IRAQ.
If THEY do not receive social security but are on an
elite retirement plan NOT available to "the people",
it's because they WANT it that way.
There are no insoluble government problems.
Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats,
whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish;
to lobbyists, whose gifts(!!) and advice they can reject;
to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate
and from whom they can take this power.
Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that
there exists disembodied mystical forces like
'the economy,' 'inflation,' or 'politics' that prevent them
from doing what they TAKE AN OATH to do.
Those 545 people, and they ALONE, are responsible.
They, and they ALONE, have the power.
They, and they ALONE, should be held accountable
by the people who are their bosses provided the voters
have the gumption to manage their own employees.
We should VOTE all of them OUT OF OFFICE and
clean up their mess!!

What you do with this article now that you have
read it is up to you, though you appear to have
several choices.
1. You can send this to everyone in your address
book, and hope they do something about it.
2. You can agree to vote against everyone that is
currently in office, knowing that the process will
take several years.
3. You can decide to run for office yourself and
agree to do the job properly.
4. Lastly, you can sit back and do nothing, or
re-elect the current "gang".
NEVER VOTE FOR AN INCUMBANT!!!!!!!!!

TO MY BANK

Dear Sirs:In view of what seems to be happening
with banks at the moment, I was wondering if you
could advise me.
One of my checks was just returned marked
"Insufficient Funds".
How do I know whether that refers to me or
to YOU?
Best regards,
Chris

THOUGHTS ON COLORS

When I was born, I was BLACK , When I grew up, I was BLACK , When I went in the sun, I stayed BLACK, When I got cold, I was BLACK , When I was scared, I was BLACK , When I was sick, I was BLACK , And when I die, I'll still be BLACK .

NOW, You 'white' folks.... When you're born, you're PINK, When you grow-up, you're WHITE , When you go in the sun, you get RED, When you're cold, you turn BLUE, When you're scared, you're YELLOW, When you get sick, you're GREEN, When you bruise, you turn PURPLE , And when you die, you look GRAY.
So who y'all callin' COLORED folks??

BUSINESS SOLUTIONS

Dear Fellow Business Owners As a Business owner who employs 30 people, I have resigned myself to the fact that Barack Obama, will be our next President, and that my Taxes and Fees, will go up in a BIG way.
To compensate for these increases, I figure, that the Customer, will have to see an increase in my fees to them of about, 8%. I will also have to lay off 6 of my employees. This really bothered me as I believe we are family here and didn't know how to choose who will have to go.
So, this is what I did. I strolled through the parking lot and found 8 Obama bumper stickers on my employees' cars. I have decided these folks will be the first to be laid off.
I can't think of another fair way to approach this problem. If you have a better idea, let me know.

I am sending this letter to all Business owners that I know.

Sincerely, A Local Businessman
