Lessons From Hurricane Katrina
Lessons from Hurricane Katrina What have we learned from the disaster of Hurricane Katrina? We have learned that if you are poor in America, the federal government does not care if you live or die. We have learned that despite protestations to the contrary, the federal government cannot respond quickly in a time of crisis and duress. We have learned that there is no true leadership in the federal government - it is as much a morass of functionaries as post-Katrina New Orleans is ...
Karen Hughes Invents The Blame Game
Karen Hughes Crafts "The Blame Game:" A Story of the Bleeding Phone Woe to those who go to great depths to hide their plans from the Lord, who do their work in darkness and think, "Who sees us? Who will know?" Isaiah 29:15 (NIV) President Coolidge come down, in a railroad train With his little fat man with a note pad in his hand President say little fat man, oh isn't it a shame, What the river has done to this poor cracker's land Randy Newman ...
Spark Propulsion Assist for Wind Turbine Generators
The most modern Wind Generators are huge with some of the blades of the propellers over three stories high. A large fan blade or propeller moving that is that large not only moves through a lot of airflow, but it indeed picks up a lot of static electricity, which can be of detriment to the electrical system and cause corrosion. It may also be very important to consider the issues during lightning storms as bolts of lightning look for discharge and energy from the ground will go back up ...
The Best Liberal Think Tanks in the World
The Democratic party is literally in the sewer when in comes to rebounding in the next election. In fact it is not looking too good for Hillary Clinton right now. The Democrats have tapped into wealthy folks and Arab groups to fund 80-million Dollars to fund think tank, which was reported in the Washington Post. This might have a good play at influencing the masses, although simply throwing money at the situation will not work, remember of course George Soros trying to change our elections ...
John Edwards and Trial Lawyers Are Licking Their Chops with New Orleans
For trial lawyers like John Edwards, the New Orleans disaster is a complete gold mine. These lawyers are already starting to network with one another to file class action lawsuits for mold growth as soon as the water is drained. They are lining up now their networks to contact residents and put adds on TV so they can certify class. Too bad the courts are closed, but soon they will be open again and those lawsuits are already being written and ready to file. They will sue income property ...
Positive People Power Taking Control By Being Proactive NOT Reactive!
WE MUST PUT A STOP TO THE EVER-INCREASING PRICE OF OIL! In the last few months the price of many necessities has markedly increased. Sure, we can call it ‘inflation’ and say it’s just a part of life - but it’s a component which is slowly but surely strangling all of us, financially. The situation is now so bad that it is spiralling out of control, leaving most of the world’s population without money for anything other than the bare essentials. Some of us can’t even afford ...

Follow The Money
Follow the Money By William Cate There's an implied covenant between citizens and their governments. Citizens will pay taxes. Governments will spend the tax money wisely for the benefit of their citizens. Even a cursory review of the special interest amendments in U.S. laws suggests that the U.S. Government isn't holding up its part in the covenant. No One Knows Nobody outside of Government knows how the taxes, fees, ...
New Orleans My Home - Katrina My Nightmare
I have lived in Jefferson Parish, Orleans Parish and St. Bernard Parish Louisiana but anytime I’m more than fifty miles away from home I simply say I’m from New Orleans. People understand that. After hurricane Katrina they will understand it much more. What they may not understand is exactly what happened there before, during and after the visitation of Katrina. Whether Katrina is seen as a disaster, a scourge or a purge it is hard to believe that it can dislodge the deep culture ...
Usually Cruel
The “supreme” law of our land is a severely defective document in many areas. It could never win approval in a faith based society. It was drafted and marketed by a faith adverse body of self interested men; we accurately call our founding fathers. The first offense of note is the self proclamation of supremacy. How does a conclave of obviously inferior men write supreme law, while refusing to open their daily proceedings with prayer? They don’t create supremacy of any sort, but do not hesitate ...
To Serve - Or Not
Shall I serve? If I serve, who shall I serve? The young person, regardless of educational achievement, is seldom taught to ask and answer these most basic questions before others are supplying the answers. The Bible says the choice boils down to serving God or money. For most people, the distinction is easily lost. In most cases, the distinction was lost on their parents and grandparents for their entire lifetimes, so it it not a matter of age. It is certainly a matter of wisdom, which ...

Washington D.c., The White House
The original White House was neither white, nor referred to as a house. The first President of the United States lived in three houses while President, none of which were the White House, as it was not completed while he was President. The White House was first referred to as the Presidential Palace, later the Presidential house, and finally the White House, after the war of 1812 when British troops attacked and burned the house. When it was rebuilt it was painted white, and the name White ...
Isn't It About Time For Marshall Law,
Listening to the news regarding the recent destruction of New Orleans, Louisiana and neighboring states, and hearing the stories of rape, violence, and other atrocities at such a time of need for all of the victims of hurricane Katrina, I believe it is time that “Marshal Law” was declared. There should be no tolerance at all for any form of criminal activity. And, anyone observed committing a violent act upon another should be shot on sight. I know, I sound quite the extremist ...
Stopping Taxpayers Monies
In reference to Emma Mieden’s (8/20/05 - High Point, NC Enterprise Paper) “International Civil Rights Center needs, deserves our support”, I would like to know what rock she’s been living under?” Don’t you just love the wives of the affluent that get stuck on a project they know nothing about only that she grew up in and around Museums? Her comments and I quote “it’s very frustrating that most of us struggle year after year to raise funds for organizations that are trying to ...

No Cost American Citizenship
No Cost American Citizenship By William Cate Full employment is a cornerstone to political stability everywhere in the world. In Democratic societies, elections that follow a Recession or Depression usually ensure that the politicians in power lose their jobs to a new wave of politicians promising full employment. In this context, many countries' immigration policy reflects their recognition for the need to create jobs. The United States has taken limited steps to use its immigration ...

You say, you want to help the Palestinians, but most of them still struggle in poverty. How are you helping anyone? Having been born into a privileged life, you use your wealth toward death, destruction, division, and sorrow.
How to Deal with Political Concerns
1) IS HAVING A DEMOCRACY MORE EFFECTIVE IN ADDRESSING POLITICAL CONCERNS? The answers below, except for item 3, are a composite of what has come out of 3 Christian web sites in trying to answer the above question. 1) Winston S. Churchhill used to say "Democracy is the worst system of government we have, except for all the others. 2) Democracy is more effective, if it upholds the protection and advancement of individual well-being, through good public ...
Adolph Hitler
ADOLF HITLER: The common perception of Hitler being large and in charge is not likely the case. He certainly was ‘handled’ or beholding to many others including psychiatrists, esotericists and industrialists. I heartily recommend that people should read The Mind of Adolph Hitler: The Secret Wartime Report to see that Hitler was a Jew living in Vienna where his ancestor of the Rothschild family left his father and all those in his generation a legacy. Here is a little ...

Sweet Lies, The Aspartame Issue
Aspartame activists are constantly being attacked because all data are a matter of public record from congressional records to government documents. Now there is even a movie, Sweet Misery: A Poisoned World (www.docworkers.com) that exposes how Don Rumsfeld got aspartame approved even though the FDA said no. Go to this link to see a clip of the movie exposing the politics Rumsfeld used:
