The Petition to New York City regarding the Firefighter Memorial
protesting the originally proposed Ground Zero Flag Raising Statue and seeking that the as yet unstated plans for a memorial be non-political and historically correct, has surpassed the 250,000 signature mark. It now stands at:
250,650 Signatures
The First 120,000 signatures have been sent to New York firefighters for delivery to the Mayor's Office.
The next 130,000 signatures will be on their way as soon as they are extracted, printed and bound. We will keep doing this until it is clear that plans for the memorial are not politcally driven and are not revisionist. That being the case, please continue to point others towards the petition site at:
http://www.petitiononline.com/flgraise/
to sign and forward the petition on to all they know. We can win this fight and in the process see many of our fellow Americans awakened to the PC-BS going on all around them which they in turn will question and then fight.

On the day he was admitted, his mother asked, "Doctor, could you please circumcise him while he is asleep."
The doctor agreed. The boy woke up and was very sore "down there" for several days.
After about a week he got to see his playmate again. The playmate informed him that he was also going to have to have his tonsils out soon. He asked his friend to tell him about the surgery.
The little boy replied, "All I can tell you is that your tonsils ain't where you think they are."
He rang the police, but they told him that no-one was in his area, so no-one was available to catch the thieves. He said, "OK," hung up, counted to 30 and rang the police again.
"Hello. I just rang you a few seconds ago because there were people in my shed? Well, you don't have to worry about them now, I've just shot them all."
Within five minutes there were half a dozen police cars in the area, an Armed Response unit, the works. Of course, they caught the burglars red-handed.
One of the policemen said to this man: "I thought you said you'd shot them!"
He replied: "I thought you said there was no-one available!"
