A GAY'S RESPONSE TO OBAMA'S GAY MARRIAGE EVOLUTION

An open letter to the POTUS:

Thank you President Obama for, once again, dragging gay people into the middle of a Presidential Election. We free thinking gay people thank you sooo much for making our lives a part of such a cheap tactic, for throwing us out into the street to get run over by a bus, just so your little Hollywood friends would kick in some cash at George Clooney’s house. Now, you are snickering there in the White House because you know that Governor Romney has now been forced to speak on the subject. And you think that all gay people are going to just follow you now?? 

Well, I just thought that I would let you know what is going on in this gay household in Florida, where this is a constitutional ban on “gay marriage”. 

My life partner and I woke up this morning in OUR home. 
We fed, walked, and loved OUR dogs.
We checked the balance of OUR joint checking account.
We discussed the progress of the ongoing remodeling of OUR condo (yes, we both own it legally) so that it can be rented out soon.
We talked about how much we enjoyed the cruise to the Bahamas that we took last month in honor of OUR TENTH ANNIVERSARY. And we talked about how wonderful it was that my Mother, Sister, Brother and his wife, and several nephews and nieces (all active members of The Mormon Church, and all residents of Utah) all joined us to celebrate.
We talked about having to take my “commitment ring” in to have it resized since I have put on some weight from eating my partner’s wonderful cooking. (Yes, we have matching gold bands).
We talked about contacting OUR attorney to update some information in OUR wills regarding OUR inheritance, OUR mutual property ownership, and OUR mutual healthcare decision-making rights.
All in all, WE sat around, enjoying the another day that WE have, by OUR own choice, together. 
All of this, we did without any say so from you, your party, or from your opposition. All of this we did, without the State of Florida granting us permission to do. You know why? Because it is not needed!!!!!! 

However, I will point out some things in OUR lives that YOUR policies have affected. 

OUR 401K is nowhere near where it should be. 
We worry about the values of OUR property. 
We worry about the futures of OUR nephews and nieces. 
And we worry about why it is that you are worried about something that is obviously B.S. instead of things that are a reality (such as jobs and the economy). 

You argue that the economy is coming back slowly. Well, perhaps it would come back faster if you did not spend your time thinking about underhanded ways to getting votes. 

Now, of course, we did not actually discuss all of these things this morning. But, that is just the point. We really could have, if we had chosen to do so, without even a whisper from the Federal Government or from the State of Florida.

Sincerely, 

Two proud and openly gay supporters of Governor Romney,

Steve and Michael

NEW PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE, by a 15 year old

Since the Pledge of Allegiance  and  The Lord's Prayer  are not allowed in most  public schools anymore  because the word 'God' is mentioned.....  

 A kid in   Arizona   wrote the attached  
NEW School prayer:  
  
"New Pledge of Allegiance"  
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  
Now I sit me down in school  
Where praying is against the rule  
For this great nation under God  
Finds mention of Him very odd.  
If scripture now the class recites,  
It violates the Bill of Rights.  
And anytime my head I bow  
Becomes a Federal matter now.  
Our hair can be purple, orange or green,  
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene..  
The law is specific, the law is precise.  
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.  
For praying in a public hall  
Might offend someone with no faith at all..  
In silence alone we must meditate,  
God's name is prohibited by the state.  
We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,  
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks...  
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.  
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.  
We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,  
And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.  
It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,  
We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong..  
We can get our condoms and birth controls,  
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles..  
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd.  
It's scary here I must confess,  
When chaos reigns the school's a mess.  
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:  
Should I be shot; My soul please take!  
Amen

This 15 year old kid got an A+ for this paper  
  
If you aren't ashamed to do this, Please pass this on..  
Jesus said, 'If you are ashamed of me, I will be ashamed of you before my Father.'  
 

ANYONE BUT ROMNEY

THE TRUTH ABOUT MITT ROMNEY, BAIN, AND PRIVATE EQUITY THAT THE MSM WON'T TELL YOU.

"I am so tired of reading about Romney/Bain bashing. If you don't know what venture capitalists and private equity firms do, then inform yourselves, after all, you claim to be a capitalist."   That was a recent quote I posted on my facebook page for which I received several positive comments. However,  since then the rhetoric such as vulture capitalist keeps coming up as well as false information on various websites and blogs. One such article can be found in the following link:

http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2012/01/mitt_romney_and_the_hypocrisy_of_bain_capital_comments.html#disqus_thread

 Meanwhile Ricky Perry, who just can't stop attacking Mitt Romney on this issue is losing a very big donor who is now siding with the Romney camp.  Newt Gingrich is losing it.  I would have never thought that a man as smart as he is, would lose control like he did.  He has shown me a side of himself that prompted me to no longer consider him for President.  The same goes for Rick Perry.

I was appalled that the American Thinker would let an article such as the above one go out and forwarded it to my son who is directly involved with Private Equity firms.  He wrote the following  true accounting of what really goes on inside a company like Bain.  Please feel free and share this info, as it appears the majority of American people have no idea,  and the garbage the media is feeding us doesn't help. 

"The author of the American Thinker article is the hypocrite and horribly mistaken. Although he spells out what a venture capitalist is, he miserably fails in categorizing Romney and Bain capital as vulture capitalists. That term certainly exits, but is geared for the Carl Icahn's of the world aka - corporate raiders. Sure, we have corporate raiders and firms geared in this country that specialize in profiting on declining performance, and guess what, they have a right to invest the way they do and its legal and part of our great capitalistic economy. Bain Capital is a firm that targets and seeks to acquire and own majority control of good companies historically that are either being poorly managed, have been impacted by changing market conditions or regulations, or they see an opportunity to significantly increase the profitability and growth of the business. Its called "private equity", and not once over the last week has anyone come out and given an accurate description to who Mitt Romney is as a business man or Bain Capital. They are Private Equity Investors, not venture capitalists or vulture capitalists. In fact, I don't think I have even heard the term "private equity" on the airwaves, including Fox News. This clown along with bigger clowns like Rick Perry and Newt Gingrich think that you are either a venture capitalist ("good) or vulture capitalist ("bad"). It's appalling that trusted news sources can't even do enough diligence to understand what they are talking about before they start meddling in an industry they know nothing about or the other Republican candidates for that matter. Bain Capital owns companies like Toy's r Us, Dunkin Doughnuts, Dominoes Pizza, The Weather Channel and many more. They have no interest in raiding the company's profits and selling them off in pieces and destroying the companies. They are trying to make them better, increase revenues, create growth and opportunity, while maintaining fiscal discipline of the company. Sounds like exactly what this country needs right now.


In fact, I find it quite ironic that our government that took control of General Motors brought in a board and executive team lead by Dan Akerson that are primarily all former private equity investors. But hey, I guess these guys don't know what they are doing or know how to fix great companies and create jobs."
 
The following is a link to Bain Capital, the company Mitt Romney founded. http://www.baincapital.com/
 
" Established in 1984, Bain Capital is one of the world's leading private investment firms managing approximately $60 billion in assets under management. Our affiliated advisers make private equity, public equity, leveraged debt asset, venture capital, and absolute return investments across multiple sectors, industries, and asset classes. Since our inception, our competitive advantage has been grounded in a people-intensive, value-added investment approach that has enabled the firm to deliver industry-leading returns for our investors."

 I would like to add that Bain or any other private equity firm has a fiduciary duty to pay their investors when the company makes a profit.  That is the way capitalism works.  If that investor was from overseas, then that's where the profit to that investor goes.  Lets not forget that many type of government agencies also used Bain etc. to invest their money in.

A little tidbit about Mitt:   Since 1999, when Romney entered public life, taking over the troubled operations of the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, and later as Governor of Massachusetts, he has donated his public service salaries to charity.

 

OBAMA THE CLASS WARFARE WARRIOR

Frank Beckman, one of my favorite radio hosts from Detroit has a way of articulating so often how I fell but can't put it into words.  Read his article here:

The core belief of every collectivist — whether described as communists, socialists, or Statists — always revolves around the belief that a few are smarter than all others and, as such, capable of determining what creates happiness for everyone.

Any suspicion that President Barack Obama does not deserve one of the above descriptions was dispelled in his speech in Osawatomie, Kan., this week.

Obama deliberately channeled Theodore Roosevelt's appearance in the same Midwestern town a century earlier, when he delivered an address titled: "The New Nationalism."

While badly missing Roosevelt's mark, Obama also revealed himself as a willing class warrior, a Luddite reincarnate, and an uninformed preschool candidate for Econ 101.

When Roosevelt spoke in 1910, he advocated a collective approach to caring for people but he also extolled the virtues of capitalism, the system that has driven America to enjoy the greatest economy in mankind's history. Roosevelt actually quoted Abraham Lincoln extensively in his address and paid special tribute to capitalism.

"Capital has its rights, which are as worthy of protection as any other rights … Nor should this lead to a war upon the owners of property. Property is the fruit of labor; … property is desirable; is a positive good in the world," said Lincoln/Roosevelt.

Obama, who has hailed the efforts of the anti-capitalist Occupy Wall Street movement, had no such praise for the American economic system.

Instead, Obama complained about the wealth gap, ignored personal responsibility in accumulating debt and blamed job losses on technology.

He cited the minimum wage and unemployment benefits for enriching America, but failed to credit the productive elements of the U.S. economy, led by good old-fashioned self interest.

Amazingly, he advocated the basic productive quality of the free enterprise system when he cited Henry Ford as the best example of a benevolent boss because he increased worker pay so employees could buy his cars.

Ford did so out of self interest, not for any altruistic reason and not because government forced him to do so.

INTERESTING HEALTH CARE STATISTICS

A recent "Investor's Business Daily" article provided very interesting statistics from a survey by the United Nations International Health Organization.

Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years after diagnosis:

U.S. 65%

England 46%

Canada 42%

Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabetes who received treatment within six months:
U.S. 93%
England 15%
Canada 43%

Percentage of seniors needing hip replacement who received it within six months:
U.S. 90%
England 15%
Canada 43%

Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one within one month:
U.S. 77%
England 40%
Canada 43%

Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:
U.S. 71
England 14
Canada 18

Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are in "excellent health":
U.S. 12%
England 2%
Canada 6%

And now for the last statistic:

National Health Insurance?
U.S. NO
England YES
Canada YES

Check this last set of statistics!!
The percentage of each past president's cabinet who had worked in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the cabinet. You know what the private business sector is…a real-life business, not a government job. Here are the percentages.
T. Roosevelt................... 38%
Taft................................... 40%
Wilson.............................. 52%
Harding........................... 49%
Coolidge......................... 48%
Hoover............................. 42%
F. Roosevelt................... 50%
Truman............................ 50%
Eisenhower.................... 57%
Kennedy......................... 30%
Johnson.......................... 47%
Nixon............................... 53%
Ford.................................. 42%
Carter............................... 32%
Reagan............................ 56%
GH Bush......................... 51%
Clinton............................. 39%
GW Bush......................... 55%
Obama..................... 8%
This helps to explain the incompetence of this administration: only 8% of them have ever worked in private business! 

That's right! Only eight percent---the least, by far, of the last 19 presidents!

And these people are trying to tell our big corporations how to run their business? 

How can the president of a major nation and society, the one with the most successful economic system in world history, stand and talk about business when he's never worked for one? Or about jobs when he has never really had one? And when it's the same for 92% of his senior staff and closest advisers? They've spent most of their time in academia, government and/or non-profit jobs or as "community organizers." They should have been in an employment line.

WARNING TO UTILITY COMPANIES FROM NASA'S JOHN CASEY

AGENDA 21, GLOBAL WARNING A HOAX.
Nothing new, but a credible source indicating that following through with the agenda is potentially dangerous and illegal.

Dear Friends,

Today, I completed the initial phase of notification of major utility companies in the Southeast US of the substantial legal and financial risk they face from imposition of manmade global warming laws, regulations or any action based on the failed anthropogenic global warming (AGW) or manmade global warming theory.

This notification was in the form of the recently published letter to Florida Governor Rick Scott. A copy is attached. Other information including a related article from Dr. Rich Swier at Redcounty.com was also sent. The article is attached.

The effort is to bring to the attention of utility executives that new scientific evidence shows that the AGW theory is unreliable, that greenhouse gasses caused by mankind's industrial activity have at best, a miniscule impact on climate. It further establishes that attempts to mitigate atmospheric content through carbon credit trading, or other means like carbon sequestration, not only will not help but may be both a net financial loss and potentially illegal.

The companies so notified are:

1. Southern Company - CEO Mr. Thomas Fanning

2.Orlando Utilities Commission (OUC) - CEO and GM Mike Ksionek

3.NextEra Energy, Inc (Parent co. of Florida Power and Light) - Corporate Media Office.

4. Progress Energy, Inc - Chairman, CEO William D. "Bill" Johnson

I will continue to extend the notification to other utility companies and state governors.

Please feel free to use this email or the attachments as you wish for public or private communication as they are in the public domain.

Best Regards,

John Casey

SUBJECT: Termination of State Initiatives in Support of Manmade Global Warming.

Dear Governor Scott,

This letter is sent to request that your office take immediate action to terminate any and all initiatives by the State of Florida, including rescission of all past legislation that was based upon the impact on the Earth’s climate by greenhouse gasses caused by human industrial exhaust and other human related activities.
The primary reason for this special request is based on an overwhelming new set of evidence that shows that the science for manmade global warming, or anthropogenic global warming (AGW), from greenhouse gas emissions is invalid.
It is widely known that much of the science on climate change and predictions for AGW- generated future climate effects on the Earth, especially that originating from the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (UN-IPCC) since 1988, has been based on predetermined outcomes, incomplete research, manipulated data, flawed global climate models (GCM), and a substantial overestimate of the impact of greenhouse gasses (GHG), especially human generated CO2, on the Earth’s climate.
Further, the advent of a new and potentially dangerous cold climate era which has just begun, essentially eliminates the AGW theory as an effective tool for understanding global climate change. This fait accompli is the result of the AGW theory’s fundamental assertion that as long as CO2 continues to rise (which it is still doing) then the Earth’s atmospheric temperatures can only go up, and never down. Yet, the new cold climate is taking them down for decades to come.
The rare and dramatic reduction in the Sun’s energy output which has brought on this new climate era is called a “grand solar minimum” by solar physicists or more appropriately, a “solar hibernation.” Once the Sun enters a state of hibernation, the subsequent, inescapable record cold climate that follows is typically thirty years long or more and regrettably, is unstoppable!
2
First announced by me to the White House, Congress, and the mainstream media in April and May of 2007, this historic change in the Sun has recently been confirmed by NASA, the US Air Force, and the National Solar Observatory. Other prominent scientists years before had done research similar to mine and like me discovered the specific 206 year solar cycle that drives these cold climate changes as well as the preceding run up or global warming that is also part of these natural cycles of the Sun that control the Earth’s climate.
Given the validation of the arrival of the next climate period and its true nature, some scientists have even gone so far as to say this new climate will be a repeat of “The Little Ice Age” of the 1600’s and 1700’s. The SSRC position is that it will not be as cold as that but highly destructive nonetheless. Much of the background on this subject is also documented in my recently released book titled “Cold Sun” which is described in more detail at www.coldsun.net. The book has received worldwide praise from leading scientists and other experts.
On August 29, 2011, I injected this new climate information in the form of a public input into one of many pending pieces of Florida laws and regulation, specifically, the Action Plan of the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC). I have attached for your consideration, an enhanced version of that input – a summary describing major elements of understanding of the present state of climate change science and analysis.
In addition, there are four important matters which I would like to bring to your attention attendant to the review of climate change oriented legislation within the State of Florida.
First, it is likely that some officials in the state, including within the environmental, energy and education sectors have been well aware that the science behind greenhouse gas emissions and the UN reports was deeply flawed and unreliable, if not intentionally manipulated. Yet even with this knowledge they may have used state funds and their authority to justify and push forward with programs in support of manmade global warming under the guise of “sustainable development,” and environmental protection, similar to that found in the FWC Action Plan. Some officials may have known that the science behind their programs and legislative actions was unreliable and yet helped advance such despite this knowledge. These actions may be regarded as a violation of their fiduciary responsibilities, malfeasance in office, and actionable.
Second, by one account, the Obama administration’s 2011 federal budget includes over $2.5 billion devoted to manmade climate change research and associated programs. I am unaware what the climate change funds picture in Florida is. However, given that the expenditure of any funds for global warming in the state is now highly suspect, it is likely that the state may be able to save a substantial amount of money by an independent review of the state programs that have been based on the disproven science of manmade global warming and manmade climate change.
3
Third, since the state has no initiatives what so ever to address the only climate we are now facing, namely thirty years of record cold, I strongly recommend the state immediately act to correct this imbalance, and inform and protect its citizens as state authority and resources permit.
Fourth, it may be regarded as fraudulent where there are individuals and companies in the state who have been pursuing business with the full knowledge that manmade global warming science was unreliable, that global warming did not exist and that in fact we are heading into decades of cold weather. Schemes to take advantage of the state or its citizens or investors that are reliant on the bad science of AGW may also be found actionable. This includes such programs as trading in carbon credits, development of carbon mitigation or carbon sequestration programs. In fact, where publicly traded stock companies are involved, such programs may well fall within the definition of trading in “worthless securities” as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and result in criminal prosecution.
I recommend that all government controlled or funded programs in the state tied to manmade global warming, including within the environmental, energy, and education sectors be stopped immediately pending an independent review of the science, structure, and intent of these programs. This review should be conducted by an objective body of experts outside of those who were involved in the development of these state programs or associated business activities.
Please feel free to contact me at any time on this subject.
Best Regards,
John L. Casey President
Encl: Climate Change Summary
4
Space and Science Research Corporation Orlando, Florida
Climate Change Summary September 6, 2011
1. Global warming ended years ago. Importantly, it ended right on schedule!
2. There has been no effective growth in the Earth’s temperatures for thirteen years. Global warming no longer exists!
3. Climate change was always caused primarily by variations in the Sun’s activity in conjunction with the motions and orientations of the Earth-Moon system and the other planets.
4. Mankind’s contribution to climate change via greenhouse gas emissions has been miniscule, at most.
5. The role of greenhouse gasses in climate change, in particular carbon dioxide (CO2), has been grossly overstated.
6. Global temperature averages for the atmosphere and the oceans are on a long term decline.
7. The Sun has begun its next “solar hibernation.” This regular, repeating cycle will bring significant cold to the Earth for decades as it has done roughly every 206 years for at least the last 1,200 years.
8. The extent of cold associated with these solar hibernations is such that they pose a grave threat to Florida’s citizens, which among several ill-effects, will adversely impact the availability of basic food supplies. This cold era is expected to cause widespread destruction of Florida’s crops, especially citrus, ornamental and cold sensitive crops as well as to ecosystems and all their natural inhabitants. While the worst effects will occur around the bottom of the 206 year cycle in 2031, initial adverse impacts are already starting to be felt. Global cold weather records over the last few years have already passed 100 years marks and will only continue to set new records as the hibernation deepens.
9. The reports of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (UN-IPCC) as well as many of those of the EPA and NOAA that rely on the UN reports, contain significant errors and omissions which preclude their use as reliable climate change science references. For example, the widely known “hockey stick” chart and associated data depicting the last 1,000
5
years of the Earth’s temperature has been completely debunked and is now recognized as an inaccurate history of global temperature trends and a clearly misleading attempt to correlate mankind’s industrial activity with global temperature. State laws and regulations that also use these reports are likewise unreliable.
10. The past “Climategate” scandal, the posting of hacked emails between UN researchers, has provided serious reason to believe that vital scientific data was manipulated to fit flawed climate models, rather than reflect the reality of the Earth’s climate. The resultant resignation of the head of one of the main climate research organizations that provided data to the United Nations is indicative of the level of culpability of data manipulation in the UN-IPCC reports.
11. Global climate models (GCM) used to support the UN reports and anthropogenic global warming (AGW) have never been objectively and independently validated as reliable predictors of global climate change, and in fact are routinely wrong when compared with global temperature trends and historical records. Simply put, they just don’t work.
12. There are other highly reliable models and theories, both domestically and internationally available to the State of Florida (the RC Theory, for example). These are based on solar cycles which offer much more dependability and confidence for climate-related legislation and regulatory actions vs. the unreliable UN GCM’s based on mankind’s greenhouse gas emissions. Solar-climate studies and theories have demonstrated an accuracy of over 90% in accounting for past climate changes. The RC Theory, in fact correctly predicted the new cold climate.
13. The core threat to Florida posed in the Action Plan, namely that of rising sea levels is no longer correct. Recent data shows the annual change of sea level rise has been declining for more than a decade and is now negative, i.e. sea level growth has stopped. Also, a long term declining trend is in place and is expected to continue since global warming has ended and the Earth’s oceans have begun a long term cool down that is forecast to last for decades.
