The  Last of The Kennedy Dynasty

As soon as his cancer was detected, I noticed the immediate attempt at the ”canonization” of old Teddy Kennedy by the mainstream media. They are saying what a “great American” he is.  I say, let’s get a couple things clear & not twist the facts to change the real history.

1.    He was caught cheating at Harvard when he attended it.  He was expelled twice, once for cheating on a test, and once for paying a classmate to cheat for him.

2.    While expelled, Kennedy enlisted in the Army, but mistakenly signed up for four years instead of two.  Oops!  The man can’t count to four!  His father, Joseph P. Kennedy, former U.S. Ambassador to England (a step up from bootlegging liquor into the US from Canada  during prohibition), pulled the necessary strings to have his enlistment shortened to two years, and to ensure that he served in Europe, not Korea , where a war was raging.  No preferential treatment for him! (like he charged that President Bush received).

3.    Kennedy was assigned to Paris, never advanced beyond the rank of Private, and returned to Harvard upon being discharged.  Imagine a person of his “education” NEVER advancing past the rank of  Private!

4.    While attending law school at the University of Virginia, he was cited for reckless driving four times, including once when he was clocked driving 90 miles per hour in a residential neighborhood with his headlights off after dark.  Yet his Virginia driver’s license was never revoked.  Coincidentally, he passed the bar exam in 1959.  Amazing!

5.    In 1964, he was seriously injured in a plane crash, and hospitalized for several  months.  Test results done by the hospital at the time he was admitted had shown he was legally intoxicated.  The results of those tests remained a “state secret” until in the 1980’s when the report was unsealed.  Didn’t hear about that from the unbiased media, did we?

6.    On July 19, 1969, Kennedy attended a party on Chappaquiddick Island in Massachusetts .  At about 11:00 PM, he borrowed his chauffeur’s keys to his Oldsmobile limousine, and offered to give a ride home to Mary Jo Kopechne, a campaign worker.  Leaving the island via an unlit bridge with no guard rail, Kennedy steered the car off the bridge, flipped, and into Poucha Pond.

7.    He swam to shore and walked back to the party, passing several houses and a fire station.  Two friends then returned with him to the scene of the accident.  According to their later testimony, they told him what he already knew – that he was required by law to immediately report the accident to the authorities.  Instead Kennedy made his way to his hotel, called his lawyer, and went to sleep.  Kennedy called the police the next morning and by then the wreck had already been discovered.  Before dying, Kopechne had scratched at the upholstered floor above her head in the upside-down car.

The Kennedy family began “calling in favors”, ensuring that any inquiry would be contained.  Her corpse was whisked out-of-state to her family, before an autopsy could be conducted.  Further details are uncertain, but after the accident Kennedy says he repeatedly dove under the water trying to rescue Kopechne and he didn’t call police because he
was in a state of shock. It is widely assumed Kennedy was drunk, and he held off calling police in hopes that his family could fix the problem overnight.  Since the accident, Kennedy’s “political enemies” have referred to him as the distinguished Senator from Chappaquiddick.  He pled guilty to leaving the scene of an accident, and was given a SUSPENDED SENTENCE OF TWO MONTHS.  Kopechne’s family received a small payout from the Kennedy’s insurance policy, and never sued.  There was  later an effort to have her body exhumed and autopsied,  but her family  successfully fought against this in court, and  Kennedy’s family  paid their attorney’s bills… a “token of  friendship”?

8.    Kennedy has held his Senate seat for more than forty years, but considering his longevity, his accomplishments seem scant.  He authored or argued for legislation that ensured a variety of civil rights, increased the minimum wage in 1981, made access to health care easier for the indigent, and funded Meals on Wheels for fixed-income seniors and is widely held as the “standard-bearer for liberalism”. In his very first Senate roll, he was the floor manager for the bill that turned U.S. immigration policy upside down and opened the floodgate for immigrants from third world countries.

9.    Since that time, he has been the prime instigator and author of every expansion of an increase in immigration, up to and including the latest attempt to grant amnesty to illegal aliens.  Not to mention the pious grilling he gave the last two Supreme Court nominees, as if he was the standard bearer for the nation in matters of “what’s right”.  What a pompous ass!

10.    He is known around Washington as a public drunk, loud, boisterous and very disrespectful to ladies.  JERK is a better description than “great American”.  ”A blonde in every pond”  is his motto.

Let’s not allow the spin doctors make this jerk a hero — how quickly the American public forgets what his real legacy is.  Let’s keep this going for truth, justice and the American way!

Time for The Few, The Pissed, The American Taxpayers to take back our country.

Remember, government has no money and cannot give anyone anything that it does not take from us first.

Below is an illustration of why hiring illegal aliens is wrong for California and wrong for America; our country is in trouble.

You have 2 families:   “Joe Legal” and “Jose Illegal”. (not undocumented alien, illegal- not here legally)

Both families have 2 parents, 2 children and live in California.

“Joe Legal” works in construction, has a Social Security Number, and makes $25/hour with payroll taxes deducted.

“Jose Illegal” also works in construction, has no Social Security Number, and gets paid $15/hour cash “under the table”.

◊◊

Joe Legal:  $25/hour x 40 hours = $1,000/week, $52,000/year

Now take 30% away for state and federal tax.

Joe Legal now has $31,231.

Jose Illegal:  $15/hour x 40 hours = $600/week, $31,200/year

Jose Illegal pays no taxes.

Jose Illegal now has $31,200.

◊◊

Joe Legal pays Medical and Dental Insurance with limited coverage:    $1,000/month, $12,000/year

Joe Legal now has $19,231.

Jose Illegal has full Medical and Dental coverage through the state and local clinics at a cost of  $0  per year

Jose Illegal still has $31,200.

◊◊

Joe Legal makes too much money and is not eligible for Food Stamps or welfare

Joe Legal pays for food:  $1,000/month, $12,000/year

Joe Legal now has $ 7,231.00

Jose Illegal has no documented income and is eligible for Food Stamps and Welfare.

Jose Illegal still has $31,200.

◊◊

Joe Legal pays rent:  $1,000/month, $12,000/year

Joe Legal is now in the hole:   minus (-) $4,769.

Jose Illegal receives a $500/month Federal rent subsidy.

Jose Illegal pays rent:  $500/month (section 8 housing), 6,000/per year

Jose Illegal still has $25,200.

◊◊

Joe Legal now works overtime on Saturdays or gets a part time job after work.

Jose Illegal has nights and weekends off to enjoy with his family (and eat out!).

◊◊

Joe Legal’s and Jose Illegal’s children both attend the same school.

Joe Legal pays for his children’s lunches.

Joe Legal’s children have to find a way to get to school and go home after school — as “latch-key kids” with no adult supervision.

Jose Illegal’s children get a government sponsored breakfast and lunch, and they also qualify to be “bussed to school” at taxpayer expense.

Jose Illegal’s children have an after school ESL program.

◊◊

Joe Legal and Jose Illegal both enjoy the same Police and Fire Services, but Joe paid for them and Jose did not pay.

Jose Illegal can send most of his money back home to build a new home for retirement, have money to buy a new truck, and still have Medi-Cal benefits while living in a foreign country (until someone turns him in to authorities … if they ever find out)!!

Joe will be lucky if he has any money for retirement, a new vehicle, medical/dental  benefits, or a place to live.

◊◊

Jose illegal’s wife claims  “single, no head of Household” and collects  additional benefits that Joe’s legal wife cannot claim.

◊◊

Don’t hire illegal aliens.  Don’t vote for any politician that supports illegal aliens.

And most important of all, write your politicians and let them know how you feel.

That says it all.

Yes We Can!!

What A Great Country!

Check out the language…”the moment when the fight for real health care reform began”. So persuasive, important, historical; just makes you want to jump in. Obama could never be wrong!!

And of course, there is a place to make a donation!

Friend –

Remember this date: Saturday, June 6th, 2009. We will look back on that day as the moment when the fight for real health care reform began in your neighborhood — perhaps even in your own living room.

On June 6th, in thousands of homes across the country, we’ll gather to launch our grassroots campaign for health care. We’ll watch a special message from the President. We’ll build the teams and draw up the plans for winning health care reform the same way we won the election: Building support one block, one neighbor, one conversation at a time. And we’ll put those plans into action.

These kickoffs are so crucial that President Obama will join confirmed hosts and attendees on a live conference call.
There’s no prior experience required. We’ll send you the details for dialing into the President’s call and provide you everything you need to make your meeting a success.

After the election, people gathered at over 9,000 meetings across every state to set priorities for health care reform. Our voices were heard. Now the race is on to make sure Congress produces a plan that reflects the President’s call for reduced costs, guaranteed choice, and quality care for all.

To make that happen, we need to build a groundswell of support in every district and every state, and we have no time to lose. All summer we’ll be reaching out to our neighbors, knocking on doors, serving in our communities, and building a grassroots network strong enough to win.

These gatherings on June 6th are just the beginning of a battle between those who fought and believe in change and those who would protect a broken status quo. The stakes for our country could not be greater.

Some call this strategy pie-in-the-sky. They say we’ll never have enough volunteers to make a real impact; that you need insiders and Washington lobbyists to make a difference. But you and I know firsthand how wrong they are. Starting June 6th, it’s once again time to show this country how bottom-up change is done.

Please sign up today to host or attend a kickoff near you.

These kickoffs will be both effective and fun. You’ll meet likeminded supporters in your neighborhood, share stories, enjoy good company and a shared mission, and know that no matter what this effort requires of us, if we work together we’ll be ready to face it and persevere.

I look forward to joining you and the President to chart our course.

P.S. — This week, President Obama asked us to send in our personal health care stories. Hundreds of thousands of people have already responded, and the stories are simply incredible. Here are just few that help remind us what we’re fighting for:

I am a single parent and have lost my teaching job effective in June. I’m scared to death because my son has a serious pre-existing condition (Neurofibromatosis) and can’t go without medical insurance. However, my employer has just informed me that continuing my family coverage under COBRA will cost $1,400.00 a month! That’s a house payment for me. Or three times my car payment! How can I keep my family covered without going under financially?

–Cathy
Apple Valley, Minnesota

Since I lost my job in 2006, I have had no health insurance. After paying for insurance through my employer for 30 years, I have no major medical. But now that I am approaching 60, I may need insurance more than ever. I have not had a mammogram for three years because it would be too stressful to find anything suspicious. Risky but true.

–Kathy
Macon, Georgia

My husband isn’t getting enough hours at his job to qualify for health insurance so we have been looking around for a provider. He has a pre-existing health condition (non-epileptic seizures) and he is being denied left and right. We don’t make a lot of money, about $23,000/year and we can’t afford to not have insurance, in case he needs to go to the doctor. And it looks like we can’t afford to have it either. We are stuck.

THIS HAS GOT TO BE PASSED ALONG TO AS MANY AS POSSIBLE OR WE WILL ALL GO DOWN THE DRAIN BECAUSE A FEW DON’T CARE.

This English teacher has phrased it the best I’ve seen yet

Tomatoes and Cheap Labor

CHEAP TOMATOES?
This should make everyone think, be you Democrat, Republican or Independent

From a California school teacher – - -

“As you listen to the news about the student protests over illegal immigration, there are some things that you should be aware of:

I am in charge of the English-as-a-second-language department at a large southern California high school which is designated a Title 1 school, meaning that its students average lower socioeconomic and income levels.

Most of the schools you are hearing about, South Gate High, Bell Gardens , Huntington Park , etc., where these students are protesting, are also Title 1 schools.

Title 1 schools are on the free breakfast and free lunch program. When I say free breakfast, I’m not talking a glass of milk and roll — but a full breakfast and cereal bar with fruits and juices that would make a Marriott proud. The waste of this food is monumental, with trays and trays of it being dumped in the trash uneaten. (

OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK )

I estimate that well over 50% of these students are obese or at least moderately overweight. About 75% or more DO have cell phones. The school also provides day care centers for the unwed teenage pregnant girls (some as young as 13) so they can attend class without the inconvenience of having to arrange for babysitters or having family watch their kids. (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK)

I was ordered to spend $700,000 on my department or risk losing funding for the upcoming year even though there was little need for anything; my budget was already substantial. I ended up buying new computers for the computer learning center, half of which, one month later, have been carved with graffiti by the appreciative students who obviously feel humbled and grateful to have a free education in America . (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK)

I have had to intervene several times for young and substitute teachers whose classes consist of many illegal immigrant students here in the country less then 3 months who raised so much hell with the female teachers, calling them “Putas” whores and throwing things that the teachers were in tears.

Free medical, free education, free food, day care etc., etc., etc. Is it any wonder they feel entitled to not only be in this country but to demand rights, privileges and entitlements ?

To those who want to point out how much these illegal immigrants contribute to our society because they LIKE their gardener and housekeeper and they like to pay less for tomatoes: spend some time in the real world of illegal immigration and see the TRUE costs.

Higher insurance, medical facilities closing, higher medical costs, more crime, lower standards of education in our schools, overcrowding, new diseases etc., etc, etc. For me, I’ll pay more for tomatoes.

We need to wake up. The guest worker program will be a disaster because we won’t have the guts to enforce it . Does anyone in their right mind really think they will voluntarily leave and return?
It does, however, have everything to do with culture: A third-world culture that does not value education, that accepts children getting pregnant and dropping out of school by 15 an d that refuses to assimilate , and an American culture that has become so weak and worried about ” political Correctness” that we don’t have the will to do anything about it.

If this makes your blood boil, as it did mine, forward this to everyone you know.

CHEAP LABOR? Isn’t that what the whole immigration issue is about?

Business doesn’t want to pay a decent wage.

Consumers don’t want expensive produce.

Government will tell you Americans don’t want the jobs.

But the bottom line is cheap labor. The phrase “cheap labor” is a myth , a farce, and a lie. There is no such thing as “cheap labor.”

Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children. He takes a job for $5.00 or 6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he files an Income Tax Return, he gets an “earned income credit” of up to $3,200 free.

He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent.

He qualifies for food stamps.

He qualifies for free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care.

His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school.

He requires bilingual teachers and books.

He qualifies for relief from high energy bills.

If they are, or become, aged, blind or disabled, they qualify for SSI. Once qualified for SSI they can qualify for Medicare . All of this is at (our) taxpayer’s expense .

He doesn’t worry about car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance.

Taxpayers provide Spanish language signs, bulletins and printed material.

He and his family receive the equivalent of $20.00 to $30.00/hour in benefits.

Working Americans are lucky to have $5.00 or $6.00/hour left after paying their bills and his.

The American taxpayers also pay for increased crime, graffiti and trash clean-up.

Cheap labor? YEAH RIGHT!

Wake up people!

THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS WE SHOULD BE ADDRESSING TO EITHER PARTY. ‘AND WHEN THEY LIE TO US AND DON’T DO AS THEY SAY, WE SHOULD REPLACE THEM AT ONCE!’

THIS HAS GOT TO BE PASSED ALONG TO AS MANY AS POSSIBLE OR WE WILL ALL GO DOWN THE DRAIN BECAUSE A FEW DON’T CARE.

Paying your taxes is Patriotic

Don’t forget to pay because….

      21 million illegal aliens are depending on you!

Muchas gracias!
