ENGLISH SPOKEN HERE

This may get me comments of being bigoted, racist, or hatemongering, but that's all right.  In today's America, that's what one gets for standing for what is right.  It's seems peculiar to me that when we expect immigrants other than Hispanics to obey the law in coming here and to learn our language, everything's alright.  But, when we expect Hispanics to do the same, it's racist and bigoted.  Wonder why?  Personally I don't have a problem with ANYONE immigrating here as long as they obey our laws in so doing and assimilate as generations of immigrants have before them.  Anyway, I wanted to share the names of the thirty-three Senators who voted AGAINST designating English as the official language of the United States.  This was sent to me in an e-mail with an open letter to these Senators:

33 Senators Voted Against English as America's Official Language June 6, 2007

Senators,
Your vote against an amendment to the Immigration Bill 1348, to make
English America's official language is astounding. On D-Day no less when we
honor those that sacrificed in order to secure the bedrock character and
principles of America . I can only surmise your vote reflects a loyalty to
illegal aliens.

I don't much care where you come from, what your religion is, whether
you're black, white or some other color, male or female, democrat, republican or
independent, but I do care when you're a United States Senator, representing
citizens of America and vote against English as the official language of the
United States

Your vote reflects betrayal, political surrender, violates your pledge
of allegiance, dishonors historical principle, rejects patriotism, borders on
traitorous action and, in my opinion, makes you unfit to serve as a United
States Senator... impeachment, recall, or other appropriate action is warranted.

Worse, 4 of you voting against English as America's official language
are presidential candidates: Senator Biden, Senator Clinton, Senator Dodd, and
Senator Obama.

Those 4 Senators vying to lead America but won't or don't have the
courage to cast a vote in favor of English as America's official language when
91% of American citizens want English officially designated as our language.

This is the second time in the last several months this list of Senators
have disgraced themselves as political hacks... unworthy as Senators and
certainly unqualified to serve as President of the United States.

If America is as angry as I am, you will realize a back-lash so stunning
it will literally rock you out of your panties... and preferably, totally out of
the United States Senate.

The entire immigration bill is a farce... your action only confirms this
really isn't about America ; it's about self-serving politics... despicable at best.

The following senators voted against making English the official
language of America :

Akaka (D-HI)

Bayh (D-IN)

Biden (D-DE) Wants to be President?

Bingaman (D-NM)

Boxer (D-CA)

Cantwell (D-WA)

Clinton (D-NY) Wants to be President?

Dayton (D-MN)

Dodd (D-CT) Wants to be President?

Feinstein (D-CA)

Harkin (D-IA)

Inouye (D-HI)

Jeffords (I-VT)

Kennedy (D-MA)

Kohl (D-WI)

Lautenberg (D-NJ)

Leahy (D-VT)

Levin (D-MI)

Lieberman (D-CT) Disappointment here.....

Menendez (D-NJ)

Mikulski (D-MD)

Murray (D-WA)

Obama (D-IL) Wants to be President?

Reed (D-RI)

Reid (D-NV) Senate Majority Leader

Salazar (D-CO)

Sarbanes (D-MD)

Schumer (D-NY)

Stabenow (D-M)

'Congressmen who willfully take actions during wartime that damage
morale, and undermine the military are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled or hanged.'

~ President Abraham Lincoln ' Amen ' "

I just thought I needed to share this with you so you would be better informed come election time. I really hope people in these Senators' districts will see this.  There's no way they can deny it or spin it because it's right there in black and white, no two ways about it.  These people need to be voted right out in the next election.

VETERANS DAY 2007

Here is an exerpt of the history of Veterans Day which was orignally known as Armistice Day taken from the U. S. Department of Veterans Affairs website:

"World War I – known at the time as “The Great War” - officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven months earlier when an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. For that reason, November 11, 1918, is generally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars.” "In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day with the following words: "To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those

who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations…"

Today we honor our veterans for defending our freedom.  We owe a debt that can never be repaid to our veterans who sacrificed and fought for the greatest country this world has ever seen and the freedom we enjoy today.  Most Americans have absolutely no idea what kind of a sacrifice it is just to sign one's name to join the Service.  It doesn't matter whether they see action or not.  Just talk to their families and you'll hear a small part of the sacrifice that is made to be in our military.  Take the time to study history.  Not just the general history of World Wars I & II, but specific accounts.  You will have to agree that considering the lack of resources and manpower in those days compared to today, there is no way we could have even maintained a war of that scale such as we did in WWII in both the European and Pacific theaters except by prayer.  There were so many "hunches" that our troops followed that paid off that I believe were instances of Divine wisdom.  I urge everyone to take the time to thank God for America, the freedoms we take for granted all too often, and those who made it possible then and now.

Soldiers of the 353rd Infantry near a church at Stenay, Meuse in France, wait for the end of hostilities.  This photo was taken at 10:58 a.m., on Nov. 11, 1918, two minutes before the armistice ending World War I went into effect.

UNBELIEVABLE!!

 

This is a photo of Senator Barack Obama, Senator Hillary Clinton, Governor of New Mexico Bill Richardson, and Ruth Harkin.  It was published by Time Magazine.  The photo was taken during the playing of the National Anthem at the thirtieth annual steak fry put on by Senator Tom Harkin in Indianola, Iowa.  Senator Obama, a PRESIDENTIAL candidate, did not put his hand over his heart as is traditionally done here in the United States.  The thing that stood out to me is that even as extreme liberal as Senator Clinton is, she put her hand over her heart.  So where would this put Senator Obama's ideology?  If someone who is running for president, the Commander-in-Chief mind you, has a problem with respecting the flag and the National Anthem, I don't believe that individual should be allowed to run.  Such disrespect would not be tolerated in any other country in the world.  Too bad it's tolerated here and many Americans do not see anything wrong with it.
