I hope so....
happy birthday !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“So am I... (its my birthday!!)...The best wish for me is that the AMERICAN PEOPLE wise up and demand that ACORN gets hit with RICO, and that the people elect McCain.”
Happy Birthday! And I wish the same exact same wish! :)
This lady reminds me of when I was a single mom teaching at a charter school. The principal who paid my salary and knew how much I made personally gave me the Free and Reduced Lunch form and told me to fill it out for my daughter who also went to school there. I told him my income was too high and that I had already looked at the chart and knew this. He said “Just fill it out anyway. We can get you in.” Of course I didn’t fill it out. A lot of the schools’ funding is based on what percentage Free Lunch kids they have, so they drive up the numbers just like this lady was saying about the WIC program. This particular school had like 85% free and reduced lunch, so I was messing up their numbers.
My bad...lazy left ring finger......didn’t proof closely...just looked for red lines.
What do you think of this:
SPIEGEL: So you think that Germany and other European countries should be setting their hopes on a President Obama and the foreign policy he would bring to the table?
Szabo: Obama was socialized after the Cold War. During the election, there’s been all this talk about experience. But experience with what kind of world? Obama is much more in tune with Europeans because many of them also grew up in this post-Cold War period — including many young top European politicians, like British Foreign Minister David Miliband, for example. That’s why the Germans and Europeans would probably get along best with Obama.
SPIEGEL ONLINE: On what issues do you think we would see the greatest changes?
Szabo: Obama has made it very clear that he’s willing to talk to everybody. He’s willing to engage Iran, and he’s even willing to engage Cuba. He’s willing to talk to people he doesn’t like, and this is a more European point of view. He understands that the US cannot just dominate. He’s also not a black politician, per se — he’s really post racial.
SPIEGEL ONLINE: But isn’t the exact opposite happening in the Democratic primaries at the moment? Aren’t people voting based on race, gender, class and age?
Szabo: Yes, that’s the problem. If the Democrats lose this election, they’ll lose it because they got so hung up on identity politics

I think I’ll take that picture to a printer...It is GREAT!!!
How is work going?
You turned down free lunch? Thats unpatriotic! ask Barama.
50% Marxists 1% Socialists 40% Moderates 8% Undecided and 1% Conservative
OK—they’re actually making me WORK today.
But it’s good that we’re busy. Job security (for now).
Venezuela shut down all the McDonald’s?
Bastards.
And you still got no self service either... right...?
What do I think?
I think its rubbish. Someone IS GOING TO DOMINATE and the Euros dont understand what that means if it is Russia or China or Islam.
USA is the most benevolent Govt ever in the history of the world.
Scrubbing has commenced:
Barack Obama’s Involvement with ACORN Unearthed, Missing Article Recovered
While Barack Obama’s connection with the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) has not gone entirely unreported, it has not been fully explained. Most media background pieces simply note Obama’s involvement in a 1995 lawsuit on behalf of ACORN. Obama’s own website, as well as most major media, fail to reveal the full depth and extent of his relationship with the organization.
Attempts to hide evidence of Obama’s involvement with ACORN have included wiping the web clean of potentially damaging articles that had appeared, and were previously publicly accessible. Unfortunately, those behind the attempted cover-up failed to realize that in today’s day and age, nothing disappears forever. There also exists another layer of the web, the hidden web, which is full of information included in proprietary scholarly databases where these very same “missing” articles can be easily uncovered.
Obama’s campaign website states:
Fact: Barack was never an ACORN trainer and never worked for ACORN in any other capacity.
Is that really a FACT, or just another lie? Let’s take a look at a quote from a 2004 article - Case Study: Chicago- The Barack Obama Campaign - written by Toni Foulkes, a Chicago ACORN Leader, which was published in the journal Social Policy. Did we mention that Social Policy recently pulled this particular article from their website, while leaving links to all other articles up?
“Obama took the case, known as ACORN vs. Edgar (the name of the Republican governor at the time) and we won. Obama then went on to run a voter registration project with Project VOTE in 1992 that made it possible for Carol Moseley Braun to win the Senate that year. Project VOTE delivered 50,000 newly registered voters in that campaign (ACORN delivered about 5,000 of them).
Since then, we have invited Obama to our leadership training sessions to run the session on power every year, and, as a result, many of our newly developing leaders got to know him before he ever ran for office. Thus it was natural for many of us to be active volunteers in his first campaign for STate Senate and then his failed bid for U.S. Congress in 1996. By the time he ran for U.S. Senate, we were old friends.”
Not only does Foulkes boast of Obama’s ACORN leadership training, but also makes it clear that Obama’s post-law school organizing of “Project VOTE” in 1992 was undertaken in direct partnership with ACORN. The tie between Project VOTE and ACORN is also something that Obama and others have attempted to disprove in recent weeks as ACORN has come under fire for allegations of voter registration fraud.
As recently as March 2008, the Los Angeles Times also made reference to Barack Obama’s involvement with ACORN:
“At the time, Talbot worked at the social action group ACORN and initially considered Obama a competitor. But she became so impressed with his work that she invited him to help train her staff.” (LA Times, March 2, 2008)
All this information was easily pulled up with minimal time investment. It took less than thirty minutes to find, despite attempts by some to bury the truth. If I could find this with little effort, imagine what could be dug up with a serious, in-depth investigation. Scary, isn’t it?
Nevertheless, Barack Obama’s campaign website continues to lie and deny the truth about his involvement and association with ACORN. No matter how many times you say it, it does not make it true. The facts do not lie, Senator Obama. It’s time to come clean and tell the truth, and it’s time for the American people to demand it.
