A Preview Of Life Under Full-Blown Tyranny
Imagine a world in which the decisions you make for your children are irrelevant. It’s a world in which the state, rather than the parents, determines what your child must eat for lunch.
Parents in Hoke County, N.C., are experiencing it firsthand, according to Civitas Institute. At West Hoke Elementary School, preschoolers are being forced to supplement their homemade lunches with meals provided by their school because a government inspector has determined the lunches they bring from home don’t meet Federal guidelines.
Read the rest here.
I will admit, it has been a REALLY long time since I had to eat a school lunch, but the memory hasn’t left me. I’m sure if you have had that displeasure, you will also remember….they were mostly nasty, and not even close to being ‘healthy’. Evidently, they haven’t changed much in that last XX years, except that there are more choices of nasty food to choose from, and a WHOLE lot more expensive!
Yet, in steps the state…the state of tyranny! Yep, that’s exactly what it is….tyranny! Obviously, you, as a parent, don’t know your own child’s needs, so they MUST step in and take over.
There is a question I must ask: What if the child has an allergy to something that being forced on them by the school food police? What will the nannies do then? Or perhaps there is something that is forced on the child that makes said child throw up? Will they back off? Likely not. Another question: Exactly who gave these tyrants the authority over our children? We pay taxes for the school systems, yet I don’t remember such a thing ever being brought before the taxpayers, or the parents.
And if the food police aren’t bad enough, they also intend to CHARGE the parents for food the kid won’t eat. Excuse me, I don’t freakin’ think so! Intimidating 4 years olds PLUS making them pay? Where do these people get off telling parents how to feed their own children?? That’s the leftards for ya! Want control over everything. It’s way past time to rein in the tin pot dick-taters in the government, and remind them…YOU WORK FOR US!

Throw Out The Garbage…..NOW!
Feds arrest man heading to U.S. Capitol for suicide mission after sting investigation
Authorities have arrested a man on his way to the U.S. Capitol for what he thought would be a suicide attack on one of the nation’s most symbolic landmarks, Fox News has learned exclusively.
The man, in his 30s and of Moroccan descent, was nabbed following a lengthy investigation by the FBI, initiated after he expressed interest in conducting an attack. It’s unclear how the FBI learned of his aspirations.
The man thought undercover FBI agents assisting him in his plot were associates of Al Qaeda.
When he was arrested Friday in Washington, he was carrying with him a vest supposedly packed with explosives, but the material inside was not actually dangerous, Fox News was told.
A short time earlier, he had been praying at a mosque in the Washington area. His destination was Capitol Hill.
The public was never in danger, as he had been under constant surveillance for some time.
When are we going to throw the trash out? Kind of fed up with the Feds playing footsie with would be murderous pedophile worshiping islamonazis! Am I a bigot? Don’t care! I’m completely sick of these animals who come into our country, wanting to destroy it, from the inside out. Let them go blow themselves up in Iran, Iraq, Syria, Turkey, or any other muzzie country! As far as I’m concerned, they are NOT welcome!

Training Against Terror
I’ve no doubt you’ve heard all about the uproar caused by CAIR concerning the training of the New York Police Department using a little film called “The Third Jihad“. They are even going so far as to demand the resignation of the Police Commissioner. I’d really like to know….who gave this Hamas linked terror group so much power over what we do, or do not do, in the training of police officers? If the jihad fits…….
What you may not have heard about is the training session in Rutherford County, Tennessee. Unfortunately, Tennessee has been the recipient of a large number of muslims, and for our law enforcement officers NOT to be trained in how to counter any terror threat brought by said ‘immigrants’ would be pure negligence! CAIR, of course, has its nose all up in the LEO’s business. Perhaps, if CAIR, and other such muslim groups, weren’t consistently violating OUR 1st Amendment rights, if they would denounce the war on innocents, refrain from destroying our Constitution and trying to replace it with Sharia, we might be inclined to listen. However, instead of acclimating themselves to the country in which they live, the goal is to force the majority into following the minority. If they don’t like it here, they are quite free to return to their place of origin, where they hang homosexuals, stone women for being raped, murder their children for their ‘honor’ and cut off the heads of the heads of anyone who disagrees with them. But please, don’t expect us to fall into line with your teachings of the murderous pedophile and his fake god.
And just who is running the other ‘training session‘, and why is it so secret? Are they bringing the fox into the chicken coup? Enquiring minds want to know!
The Dismal Failure of Obamanomics
Obamanomics Has Failed
The Foundry
Three years ago today, President Barack Obama signed into law his trillion-dollar stimulus plan, a measure that he promised would save or create 3 million jobs by the end of 2010 and would prevent unemployment from ever going above 8 percent. And though the President today will likely claim that thanks to his efforts, the U.S. economy is surging, don’t believe him. The verdict is in: Obamanomics has failed.
But you don’t have to take our word for it. Yesterday, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released a report offering an analysis of the last three years of the Obama economy. In short, the stimulus did not live up to the President’s promises.
The CBO writes that America’s unemployment rate has exceeded 8 percent since February 2009, making this the longest stretch of high unemployment since the Great Depression. To make matters worse, unemployment will remain above 8 percent until 2014. And the level of long-term unemployment — those looking for work for more than six months — is over 40 percent, the highest since at least 1948, when that data was first collected.
