Fw: Why Mitt Romney Is Unlikable

      
    Why Mitt Romney is Un-likeable!
    A lot is being said in the media about Mitt Romney not being "likable" or that he doesn't "relate well" to people. Frankly, we struggled to understand why. So after much research, we have come up with a Top Ten List to explain this "un-like-ability."
    Top Ten Reasons To Dislike Mitt Romney:
    1. Drop-dead, collar-ad handsome with gracious, statesmanlike aura. Looks like every central casting's #1 choice for Commander-in-Chief.
     
    2. Been married to ONE woman his entire life, and has been faithful to her, including through her bouts with breast cancer and MS.
    3. No scandals or skeletons in his closet. (How boring is that?)
     
    4. Can't speak in a fake, southern, "black preacher voice" when necessary.
     
    5. Highly intelligent. Graduated cum laude from both Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School . . . and by the way, his academic records are NOT sealed.
    6. Doesn't smoke or drink alcohol, and has never done drugs, not even in the counter-culture age when he went to college. Too square for today's America?
    7. Represents an America of "yesterday", where people believed in God, went to Church, didn't screw around, worked hard, and became a SUCCESS!
     
    8. Has a family of five great sons .... and none of them have police records or are in drug rehab. But of course, they were raised by a stay-at-home mom, and that "choice" deserves America's scorn.
     
    9. Oh yes . . . he's a MORMON. We need to be very afraid of that very strange religion that teaches its members to be clean-living, patriotic, fiscally conservative, charitable, self-reliant, and honest.
    10. And one more point . . . pundits say because of his wealth, he can't relate to ordinary Americans. I guess that's because he made that money HIMSELF . . .  as opposed to marrying it or inheriting it from Dad. Apparently, he didn't understand that actually working at a job and earning your own money made you un-relatable to Americans.
     
    My goodness, it's a strange world, isn't it?

Fw: The Gold Urinal

    The Gold Urinal

    Before Obama was elected President he went to see Bill and Hillary for some campaign advice, at their spacious home.

    After drinking several glasses of iced tea, he asked Bill Clinton if he could use his personal bathroom.

    When he entered Clinton's private toilet, he was astonished to see that Clinton had a solid gold urinal! Wow!

    That afternoon, Obama told his wife, Michelle, about the urinal. "Just think,' he said, 'when I am President, I too could have a gold urinal.......
    But I wouldn't have something so self-indulgent!"

    Later, when Michelle had lunch with Hillary, she told Hillary how impressed Obama had been at his discovery of the fact that, in his private bathroom,
    Bill had a gold urinal.

    That evening, when Bill and Hillary were getting ready for bed, Hillary smiled and said to Bill:


     

    "Guess what?  I found out who pee-ed in your saxophone."

Fw: Happy 4th of July!....

 


I HOPE THERE ISN'T ANYONE ON MY E-MAIL LIST THAT WON'T KEEP THIS GOING.           Happy 4th of July!....   Let' s get this started, NOW!  
So it will be out there on the fourth!
 





I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE  
FLAG,
OF THE UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA ,

AND TO THE REPUBLIC, FOR
WHICH IT STANDS,
 
ONE
NATION UNDER  GOD
, 
INDIVISIBLE,
 
WITH  LIBERTY
AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!  


KEEP IT LIT!!
KEEP IT LIT! 
For all of our other military personnel, where ever they may be.
 
Please
Support all of the troops defending our Country.



And God Bless our Military
 
who are protecting our Country for our Freedom.
Thanks to them, and their sacrifices, we can celebrate the 4th of July.





We must never forget who gets the credit for the freedoms we have,
 
of which we should be eternally grateful.
 



I watched the flag pass by one day.
 
It fluttered in the breeze.
 




A young Marine saluted it,
 
And then he stood at ease.



I looked at him in uniform;
 
so young, so tall, so proud.
With hair cut square and eyes alert,
he'd stand out in any crowd.
 


I thought how many men like him
 
had fallen through the years.
How many died on foreign soil;
how many mothers' tears?



How many pilots' planes shot down?
 
How many died at sea?
How many foxholes were soldiers' graves?
NO, FREEDOM ISN'T FREE !



I heard the sound of Taps one night,
 
when everything was still.
I listened to the bugler play
And felt a sudden chill.

I wondered just how many times
That Taps had meant 'Amen.'
 
When a flag had draped a coffin
 
of a brother or a friend.
 



I thought of all the children,
 
of the mothers and the wives,
of fathers, sons and husbands
With interrupted lives.
 




I thought about a graveyard
At the bottom of the sea.
 
Of unmarked graves in  Arlington .
 
NO FREEDOM ISN'T FREE



Enjoy Your Freedom
 
and

God Bless Our Troops.

When you receive this,
 
please stop for a moment
and say a prayer for our servicemen.
 

Of all the gifts you could give a U.S. Soldier, prayer is the very best one.
