God Bless Our Military...

.

A chaplain, who happened to be assigned to the Pentagon, told of an
incident that happened right after Flight 77 hit the Pentagon on 9/11.
A daycare facility inside the Pentagon had many children,
including infants who were in heavy cribs. The daycare supervisor,
looking at all the children they needed to evacuate, was in a panic
over what they could do. There were many children, mostly toddlers,
as well as the infants that would need to be taken out with the
cribs.
There was no time to try to bundle them into carriers and
strollers. Just then a young Marine came running into the center and
asked what they needed. After hearing what the center director was
trying to do, he ran back out into the hallway and disappeared. The
director thought, "Well, here we are, on our own."
About 2 minutes later, that Marine returned with 40 other Marines in
tow. Each of them grabbed a crib with a child, and the rest started
gathering up toddlers. The director and her staff then helped them
take all the children out of the center and down toward the park
near the Potomac.
Once they got about 3/4 of a mile outside the building, the Marines
stopped in the park, and then did a fabulous thing - they formed a
circle with the cribs, which were quite sturdy and heavy, like the
covered wagons in the Old West. Inside this circle of cribs, they
put the toddlers, to keep them from wandering off. Outside this
circle were the 40 Marines, forming a perimeter around the children
and waiting for instructions. There they remained until the parents
could be notified and come get their children.
The chaplain then said,
"I don't think any of us saw nor heard of this on any of the news
stories of the day. It was an incredible story of our men there."
There wasn't a dry eye in the room. The thought of those Marines and
what they did and how fast they reacted; could we expect any less
from them? It was one of the most touching stories from the Pentagon.

It's the Military, not the politicians that ensures our right to
life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It's the Military who
salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is
draped by the flag.
If you care to offer the smallest token of recognition and
appreciation for the military, please pass this on and pray for our
men and women, who have served and are currently serving our
country, and pray for those who have given the ultimate sacrifice for
freedom.
GOD BLESS OUR MILITARY

Resurrection

Resurrection

A pastor was presenting a children's sermon. During the sermon, he asked the children if they knew what the resurrection was. Now, asking questions during children's sermons is crucial, but at the same time, asking children questions in front of a congregation can also be very dangerous.

Having asked the children if they knew the meaning of the resurrection, a little boy raised his hand. The pastor called on him and the little boy said, "I know that if you have a resurrection that lasts more than four hours you are supposed to call the doctor."

It took over ten minutes for the congregation to settle down enough from their laughter for the worship service to be continued.

So making guns illegal will take them off the street?

We should make heroine and meth illegal too!

Please explain to me...

No one has been able to explain to me why young men and women serve in the U.S. Military for 20 years, risking their lives protecting freedom, and only get 50% of their pay on retirement. While Politicians hold their political positions
in the safe confines of the capital, protected by these same men and women, and receive full-pay retirement after serving one term. It just does not make any sense.

Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution: "Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law
that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States ."

Italian Virginity test

The Italian Virginity Test
Mario is planning to marry and asks his
family doctor how he could tell if
his Bride-to-be is still a Virgin.

His doctor says ... "Mario, all the Italian men I know
use three things for what we call
a Do-It-Yourself Virginity Test Kit ~~~
a small can of Red paint,
a small can of Blue paint, and a Shovel."

Mario asks ... "And what do I do with these things, doc?"

The doctor replies ... "Before you climb
into bed on your wedding night,
you paint one of your b...ls Red and the other ba.l Blue.

If she says ... 'That's the strangest pair of ba..ls I've ever seen !',

..........you hit her with the Shovel.

Numbers ... Voter Fraud

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sometimes you just cannot argue with the numbers. If these numbers are correct and true, the USA has bigger problems on their hands other than who was elected President.

From Bill O'Reilly's message board:

Most everyone suspected fraud, but these numbers prove it and our government and media refuse to do anything about it.

As each state reported their final election details, the evidence of voter fraud is astounding. Massive voter fraud has been reported in areas of OH and FL, with PA, WI and VA, all are deploying personnel to investigate election results.

Here are just a few examples of what has surfaced with much more to come.

* In 59 voting districts in the Philadelphia region, Obama
received 100% of the votes with not even a single vote recorded for
Romney. (A mathematical and statistical impossibility).

* In 21 districts in Wood County Ohio, Obama received 100% of
the votes where GOP inspectors were illegally removed from their
polling locations - and not one single vote was recorded for Romney.
(Another statistical impossibility).

* In Wood County Ohio, 106,258 voted in a county with only
98,213 eligible voters.

* In St. Lucie County, FL, there were 175,574 registered
eligible voters but 247,713 votes were cast.

* The National SEAL Museum, a polling location in St. Lucie
County, FL had a 158% voter turnout.

* Palm Beach County, FL had a 141% voter turnout.

* In Ohio County, Obama won by 108% of the total number of
eligible voters.

NOTE: Obama won in every state that did not require a Photo ID and lost in every state that did require a Photo ID in order to vote.

Imagine that!

Mark Levin...

Mark Levin: "I Can Barely Contain My Fury At What Is Going On"

MARK LEVIN: You know folks, I'll be honest with you. I just told a friend of mine -- even though I sit behind this microphone and I try to be civil and so forth -- I can barely contain my fury about what's going on in this country. I'm just being honest with you. I can barely contain it. I'm so frustrated by this tyranny, you have no idea. Now we can analyze it, we can intellectualize it, we can parse it and so forth and try to unravel it. But I'm just telling you, from an emotional point of view, it is just so <snip>ed infuriating to see the greatest country on the face of the earth run by a bunch of lilliputians, who are constantly attacking it from within.

No discussion on the news programs about an imperial president exercising an authority he does not have under our constitution. Nothing. No discussion about all the lives saved and all the people protected as a result of the Second Amendment. Nothing. They continue to perpetuate the lie, the big lie that somehow, some new regulation, some new government

Subject: Math teacher detained by government

IT WON'T BE LONG NOW !  First the guns, then our freedom !!

A public school teacher  was arrested today at John F. Kennedy

International airport as he  attempted to board a flight while in

possession of a ruler, a  protractor, a compass, a slide-rule and a

calculator. At a morning press  conference, Attorney General Eric

Holder said he believes the man is a  member of the notorious Al-Gebra

movement.

He did not identify  the man, who has been charged by the FBI with

carrying weapons of math  instruction.

'Al-Gebra is a problem for us', the Attorney General  said. 'They

derive solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off  on

tangents in search of absolute values.' They use secret code names

like "X" and "Y" and refer to themselves as "unknowns" but we have

determined that they belong to a common denominator of the axis of

medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philosopher

Isosceles used to say, "There are 3 sides to every  triangle."

When asked to comment on the arrest, President Obama  said, "If God

had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction,  he would

have given us more fingers and toes." White House aides told reporters

they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement  by the

President. It is believed that another Nobel Prize will  follow.

The Tiny Cabin...

THE TINY CABIN

A social worker from a big city in Massachusetts recently transferred to the mountains of West Virginia and was on the first tour of her new territory when she came upon the tiniest cabin she had ever seen in her life. Intrigued, she went up and knocked on the door.

"Anybody home?" she asked.

"Yep," came a kid's voice through the door.

"Is your father there?" asked the social worker.

"Pa? Nope, he left afore Ma came in," said the kid.

"Well, is your mother there?" persisted the social worker.

"Ma? Nope, she left just afore I got here," said the kid.

"But," protested the social worker, "are you never together as a family?"

"Sure, but not here," said the kid through the door. "This is the outhouse!"

Government workers are so very smart. Aren't you overjoyed that they'll soon be handling all our financial, educational and medical dilemmas?

Quote for the day!!!................

"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed, lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work instead of living on public assistance." - Cicero , 55 BC

So, evidently we've learned nothing in the past 2,067 years.

The new priest...

A new priest at his first mass was so nervous he could hardly speak. After mass he asked the monsignor how he had done. The monsignor replied, "When I am worried about getting nervous on the pulpit, I put a glass of vodka next to the water glass. If I start to get nervous, I take a sip."

So the next Sunday he took the monsignor's advice. At the beginning of the sermon, he got nervous and took a drink. He proceeded to talk up a storm. Upon return to his office after mass, he found the following note on his door:

1. Sip the Vodka, don't gulp.

2. There are 10 commandments, not 12.

3. There are 12 disciples, not 10.

4. Jesus was consecrated, not constipated.

5. Jacob wagered his donkey, he did not bet his ass.

6. We do not refer to Jesus Christ as the late J.C.

7. The Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are not referred to as Daddy, Junior, and Spook.

8. David slew Goliath, he did not kick the **** out of him.

9. When David was hit by a rock and knocked off his donkey, don't say he was stoned off his ass.

10. We do not refer to the cross as the Big T!

11. When Jesus broke the bread at the Last Supper he said, "Take this and eat it, for it is my body", he did not say, "Eat me."

12. The Virgin Mary is not referred to as the, "Mary with the Cherry".

13. The recommended grace before a meal is not: "Rub a dub dub, thanks for the grub, yeah God"

14. Next Sunday there will be a taffy pulling contest at St.Peter's, not a peter pulling contest at St. Taffy's.
