Did you know?

I didn't know!

How could we?

Did you know that 47 countries' have

reestablished their embassies in Iraq ?

Did you know that the Iraqi government

currently employs 1.2 million Iraqi people?

Did you know

that 3100 schools have been renovated,

364 schools are under rehabilitation,

263 new schools are now under construction;

and 38 new schools have been completed in Iraq ?

Did you know

that Iraq 's higher educational structure consistsof 20 Universities, 46 Institutes or colleges and 4 research centers,

all currently operating?

Did you know that 25 Iraq students departed for the United States in
January 2005 for the re-established Fulbright program?

Did you know

that the Iraqi Navy is operational?

They have 5 - 100-foot patrol craft,

34 smaller vessels and a naval infantry regiment.

Did you know

that Iraq ' s Air Force consists of three operational squadrons,

Which includes 9 reconnaissance and 3 US C-130 transport aircraft

(under Iraqi operational control) which operate day and night,

and will soon add 16 UH-1 helicopters and 4 Bell Jet Rangers?

Did you know

that Iraq has a counter-terrorist unit and a Commando Battalion?

Did you know

that the Iraqi Police Service has over 55,000

fully trained and equipped police officers?

Did you know

that there are 5 Police Academies in Iraq

that produce over 3500 new officers every 8 weeks?

Did you know

there are more than 1100 building projects going on in Iraq ?

They include 364 schools, 67 public clinics, 15 hospitals,

83 railroad stations, 22 oil facilities, 93 water facilities

and 69 electrical facilities.

Did you know

that 96% of Iraqi children under the age of 5

have received the first 2 series of polio vaccinations?

Did you know

that 4.3 million Iraqi children were enrolled in primary school by mid October?

Did you know

that there are 1,192,000 cell phone subscribers in Iraq

and phone use has gone up 158%?

Did you know

that Iraq has an independent media that consists of

75 radio stations, 180 newspapers and 10 television stations?

Did you know

that the Baghdad Stock Exchange opened in June of 2004?

Did you know

that 2 candidates in the Iraqi presidential election had a
televised debate recently?

OF COURSE WE DIDN'T KNOW!

WHY DIDN'T WE KNOW?

BECAUSE OUR MEDIA WON'T TELL US!

Instead of reflecting our love for our country,

we get photos of flag burning incidents at Abu Ghraib

and people throwing snowballs at the presidential motorcades.

Tragically, the lack of accentuating the positive

in Iraq serves two purposes:

It is intended to undermine the world's perception

of the United States thus minimizing consequent support;

and it is intended to discourage American citizens.

A lot of folks can't understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in our country.
~~~
Well, there's a very simple answer.
~~~
Nobody bothered to check the oil.
~~~
We just didn't know we were getting low.
~~~
The reason for that is purely geographical.
~~~
Our OIL is located in
~~~
ALASKA
~~~
California
~~~
Coastal Florida
~~~
Coastal Louisiana
~~~
Kansas
~~~
Oklahoma
~~~
Pennsylvania and Texas
~~~
Our DIPSTICKS are located in Washington, DC!!!

Any Questions???
NO? Didn't think So.

ENDLESS WAR WILL BE THE END OF US

So John McCain says we can win the war by 2013. My thought on this is that if we keep spending the amount of money we are spending on Iraq and Afghanistan, we might win the war and destroy our country at the same time. Our military is fighting at max. We keep extending the tours of duty, and our troops can't sustain this effort for another five years. Our economy is in the tank, and five more years will destroy us. Thankfully, the majority of Americans are sick and tired of the way things are going, and will vote for CHANGE. We are at a point that CHANGE is our only hope for recovery. We have been led by an IDIOT for almost eight years now, and the American people will not vote for another one.         Tux
 
DAVE THOMAS ON OUR ENDLESS TAX INDREASES

Good Morning.  Please read the following.  We are in for seriously increased taxes, due to several "solutions" coming down from the State, the County and our Cities.  The County wants half a cent for roads, our cities want a half a cent for cops, Arnie wants one whole cent for his profligate spending, and they will still sell off the proceeds of the lottery.  Modesto is continuing to increase your water, sewer and garbage fees, every 6 months.  Modesto is cutting on cops and firemen.  Modesto is cutting on tree maintenance, meaning YOU have to maintain the city's trees and mistletoe.  Modesto is simply NOT going to fix the roads, and not going to synchronize the lights.  But, the County IS going to build an expressway to the Kamilos project at Crows Landing, like it or not. 
 
Please understand that every government you suffer under is going to invade your wallet to satisfy the need to spend more money.  Even when you are trying to conserve, travel less, purchase more wisely, all the governments are looking at more devious ways to rip your hard earned income away from you and your family.  California is already the most expensive state to live in, and it is going to get worse. 
 
The only hope you have is to vote "NO" on the new road tax, any other increases in sales taxes and find fiscally savvy and ethical neighbors to run for elected office.  Otherwise, you will not be able to afford Modesto or even Stanislaus County.

BIG FIGHT AGAINST FORCED FLUORIDATION OF WATER SUPPLY

Good News! ... friends,

Finally, 18+ million Southern Californians will 'indirectly' get 'legal
PROTEST' to overcome the 'private/quasi-government' water treatment
utilities organization called "MET" [e.g. Southern California
Metropolitan Water Association] wherein in Oct. 2007 forced 'MOST'
cities with water treatment utilities within Greater Los Angeles and
down through Greater San Diego to add SILICOFLUORIDE, an EPA 'regulated
pollutant' also classified as a 'Class 1 Hazardous Waste', as sourced
from the phosphate ore mining & processing industry, into their
drinking/tap waters as a source of illicit 'fluoride'.
ALL this absurd, 'illicit' drinking/tap water treatment program without
a Public Ballot Vote, and only a couple of barely announced, biased
controlled Public Hearings will now be legally addressed in Federal
Court(s).
___
Please READ the breaking News at following link:

"Citizens uniting against fluoride"
"Large-scale lawsuit seeks to ban chemical poisoning of water supply"

Separately, but very much concerned ... 'Environmental Working Group'
headquartered in Washington, D.C. earlier presented scientific concerns
during a 2007 MET Hearing that an estimated 64,000+ infants & small
children will be put at extreme RISK if the MET proceeded to add
SILICOFLUORIDE at ALL those Water Treatment Utilities throughout
Southern California. Read a Summary of their concerns at:

http://www.ewg.org/reports/cafluoride
____

Politically appointed USA-EPA highest management is primarily in
'unethical political complicity' to allow Silicofluorides to be sold and
metered into our precious USA drinking waters. However, recently around
7,000+ EPA professional CAREER 'non-politically hired' Scientists,
Toxicologists, Chemists, and professional field health workers signed a
Petition to EPA top Management requesting 'fluoridation' be stopped.
Read the PR Announcement at:

http://www.world-wire.com/news/0830050001.html
*_______

*Know that the ‘concentration’ of fluoride metered [e.g.,'dumped'] into
drinking water by water treatment utilities will ‘NOT BE PRECISE’, and
the ‘*VARYING DOSAGE SWALLOWED CANNOT BE CONTROLLED*’ by Infants, Young
Children, those ‘SENSITIVE TO FLUORIDE’, and the Elderly, or Sick! No
Medical Professional can write any medically related prescription that
does not state, or _control, the DOSAGE!
_____
_
Please, go to the .. Keepers of the Well .. website to send, at least, a
small DONATION to the Legal Trust Fund of the Citizens For Safe Drinking
Water to help pay/defray the Legal COSTS of this planned ACTION to be
filed in the Federal Court(s). Become a '*Keeper of the Well*' by
expressing your 'interest in Legal Success' with an 'Easy Pay', or
'check' Donation at:

*http://www.keepers-of-the-well.org/Introduction.html*
______

Since this 'Legal ACTION' will be filed in Federal Court, the results
can and most likely will _positively protect_, in future, ALL affected
not only in Southern California by SILICOFLUORIDE, but finally Protect
ALL in the U.S.A. from this polluting misuse of a 'Hazardous Waste'.
This 'private grassroots organization' filing [e.g., not a Class Action]
NEEDS OUR HELP!

Thanks! ... for reading the above & for hopefully taking more than just
an interest.
Now is the time to show more than just an interest, and *_help
eliminate_ _SILICOFLUORIDE_* in the Drinking Water of nearly 180 million
U.S.A. Citizens. Especially, PREVENT/STOP the So. California 'Health
Disaster' that's underway without each Citizens' U.S. Constitutional
guaranteed Right to express CONSENT about what goes into their
individual bodies.

Need to talk to a live person before deciding on a larger donation,
telephone Jeff G. at:
1-800-728-3833 .
