They even said her accusations were BS! However, she was not alone! Many in Town Hall meetings and Tea Parties across America said the same thing. The WH denied it was in the health bill over and over again. But we could read. It was in there and it was making many of us down right upset that they would not admit it was! Ironically they decided to remove it. I don't how they could remove what they claimed was not there and bash so many intelligent people who were saying it was there, but they have! Here is the story: "Death Panel" Clause Stripped From Senate Bill, Grassley Nails House Democrats have been smashed over this and the Senate Finance committee has wisely withdrawn it from its bill: Senator Charles E. Grassley of Iowa said in a statement that the committee “dropped end-of-life provisions from consideration entirely because of the way they could be misinterpreted and implemented incorrectly.” A Senate Finance Committee aide confirmed that the panel was not discussing end-of-life measures, adding that they were “never a major focus” of the committee’s negotiations. House committees have passed legislation that would provide Medicare coverage for optional counseling sessions on end-of-life services. In his statement, Mr. Grassley called the House legislation “so poorly cobbled together that it will have all kinds of unintended consequences.” “On the Finance Committee, we are working very hard to avoid unintended consequences by methodically working through the complexities of all of these issues and policy options,” he continued, adding “Maybe others can defend a bill like the Pelosi bill that leaves major issues open to interpretation, but I can’t.” End-of-life care recently became a hot-button issue in the debate over health care reform, with conservative critics charging that proposed legislation could encourage euthanasia.

Co-op only. How cool is that? That gets rid of all the 'Big Brother' privacy issues and the government butting in where it has no business being which is in our individual private lives! I don't want the government controlling my financial and health records. That's too much intrusion! Lets hope the far lefters don't get their way on this. Of course, Co-Op could be bad. Why?

Thank you for your prayers. Thank you for your financial support. It is your prayers and your financial support that are allowing TRUTH to have its say - all over the globe! We have been absolutely amazed to watch the Word of God, as we know it, spread out around the globe via the Internet and take root in people’s lives. What started out as such a small web site idea has grown into a major International Outreach tool that knows no borders. TruthOrTradition.com is being visited daily by thousands of people from every continent --- places like China, Korea, Russia, Iran, Iraq, Vietnam, and Thailand --- and that’s just naming a few. They are not just reading our articles, they are downloading our free audio teachings, seminars and videos. So far, our TruthOrTradition.com website has had 7.6 million articles downloaded. In June of this year, we averaged 187 pages per hour, that’s 4,488 pages per day, or over 134 thousand pages for the month. That is not even counting all the audio and video teachings, that is just the articles. A snap shot of our Internet traffic reveals the global impact we are all having: This morning, there was someone online from Japan for 42 minutes. South Africa for 39 minutes Romania – 30 minutes Moldova – (A country between Romania and the Ukraine) – 44 minutes Moscow - 19 minutes Ghana – 15 minutes Singapore – 7 minutes And a bunch more…. This is all because of YOU….it’s your prayers and your hard earned financial support that is allowing this Global Reformation to take place. We can't help but think of how blessed and how proud Church reformers like Martin Luther, William Tyndale, John Wycliffe, the Apostle Paul and many others will be to see all that was done with their sacrifice. Our Partnership plan motto is: “Together, We Can!” A good subtitle might be: “And, we are!” We are seeing the seeds of what this ministry stands for taking root all over the globe! That is why we are saying, "Thank you!"

And I remember one night in particular when she had made breakfast after a long, hard day at work. On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage and extremely burned biscuits in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed! Yet all my dad did was reach for his biscuit, smile at my mom and ask me how my day was at school. I don't remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on that biscuit and eat every bite! When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits. And I'll never forget what he said: "Baby, I love burned biscuits." Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night and I asked him if he really liked his biscuits burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, "Your Momma put in a hard day at work today and she's real tired. Besides a little burnt biscuit never hurt anyone!" You know, life is full of imperfect things and imperfect people. What I've learned over the years is that learning to accept each other's faults and choosing to celebrate each other's differences is one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship. And that's my prayer for you today. That you will learn to take the good, the bad, and the ugly parts of your life and lay them at the feet of God. Because in the end, He's the only One who will be able to give you a relationship where a burnt biscuit isn't a deal-breaker! We could extend this to any relationship. In fact, understanding is the base of any relationship, be it a husband-wife, parent-child, siblings, friendship or work asssociates! "Don't put the key to your happiness in someone else's pocket! Keep it in your own." The Lord shared this with me just last week. that the most important person in a relationship is the other person. Now go and make everyone in this world love each other. God bless you all. --- ...God Bless You Too Viv!

The chef at a hotel in Switzerland lost a finger in a meat cutting machine and, after a little hopping around, submitted a claim to his insurance company. The company expecting negligence, sent out one of its men to have a look for himself. He tried the machine and lost a finger. The chef's claim was approved. 3. A man who shoveled snow for an hour to clear a space for his car during a blizzard in Chicago returned with his Vehicle to find a woman had taken the space. Understandably, he shot her. 4. After stopping for drinks at an illegal bar, a Zimbabwean bus driver found that the 20 mental patients he was supposed to be transporting from Harare to Bulawayo had escaped. Not wanting to admit his incompetence, the driver went to a nearby bus stop and offered everyone waiting there a free ride. He then delivered the passengers to the mental hospital, telling the staff that the patients were very excitable and prone to bizarre fantasies. The deception wasn't discovered for 3 days. 5. An American teenager was in the hospital recovering from serious head wounds received from an oncoming train. When asked how he received the injuries, the lad told police that he was simply trying to see how close he could get his head to a moving train before he was hit. 6. A man walked into a Louisiana Circle-K, put a $20 bill on the counter, and asked for change. When the clerk opened the cash drawer, the man pulled a gun and asked for all the cash in the register, which the clerk promptly provided. The man took the cash from the clerk and fled, leaving the $20 bill on the counter. The total amount of cash he got from the drawer was $15. (If someone points a gun at you and gives you money, is a crime committed?) 7. Seems an Arkansas guy wanted some beer pretty badly. He decided that he'd just throw a cinder block through a liquor store window, grab some booze, and run. So he lifted the cinder block and heaved it over his head at the window. The cinder block bounced back and hit the would-be thief on the head, knocking him unconscious. The liquor store window was made of Plexiglas. The whole event was caught on videotape. 8. As a female shopper exited a New York convenience store, a man grabbed her purse and ran. She called 911 immediately, and the woman was able to give them a detailed description of the snatcher. Within minutes, the police apprehended the snatcher. They put him in the car and drove back to the store. The thief was then taken out of the car and told to stand there for a positive ID. To which he replied, "Yes, officer, that's her. That is the lady I stole the purse from." 9. The Ann Arbor News crime column reported that a man walked into a Burger King in Ypsilanti, Michigan, at 5 a.m., flashed a gun, and demanded cash. The clerk turned him down because he said he couldn't open the cash register without a food order. When the man ordered onion rings, the clerk said they weren't available for breakfast. The man, frustrated and furious, walked away. CONSOLATION PRIZE 10. When a man attempted to siphon gasoline from a motor home parked on a Seattle street, he got much more than he bargained for. Police arrived at the scene to find a very sick man curled up and vomiting, on the ground next to the vehicle. A police spokesman said that the man admitted trying to steal gasoline.

He electrified the audience like I haven't seen in a long time. His delivery was masterful. I am sorry you could not see him in action. Anyway, I thought you might enjoy his words. The news media was there, but not one word of this man's appearance ever appeared on TV or in print, even though he completely dominated the scene. This is A Time For Courage - April 15, 2009 - 11:49 pm Ladies and gentlemen, This is a Time For Courage. We are gathered here today on the Plains of West Texas in common purpose. We are here to remind our government that this is our country. We the People are still in charge, and our government is still our servant and not our master. Our Nation's founding document is The Declaration of Independence .. It tells us that our rights come from God and not from a small group of Elite men and women. Our Constitution starts with the words "We the People." Our Constitution was written for ordinary Americans like you and me. Our Constitution protects us from our government and from the politicians. Our President has complained that our Constitution gives ordinary people too much protection. He has ridiculed us for the high value we place on our Bibles, our guns, our personal property, and our Liberty .. He tells us we do not deserve to keep the money we have earned. We are told freedom has not worked. Personal responsibility, free enterprise, and Liberty have not been effective. Our government will now make more of our decisions for us. Other than our military, I can think of not one government agency I have ever found to be helpful. And speaking of our military, how about those Navy Seals blowing the heads off those three terrorist pirates? Don't you just wish our entire government would function with such efficiency, professionalism, and courage? We watch in disbelief as our beloved United States is weakened economically, militarily, and morally by a Radical President and his eager accomplices. What has taken generations to build is systematically destroyed and replaced with the same Socialist Evil that brought poverty, destruction, and despair to untold hundreds of millions. The problems we face today have occurred because we have not defended our Nation from Socialism. For too long we have allowed the wrong people to make the worst possible decisions. The Bible warns us of class hatred. The Radical leadership of our government daily fans the evil flames of class envy. Our European and Canadian friends beg us to not make the same Socialist mistakes they did. The President of the European Union warned our President that his Socialist economic plans are taking the World down the "road to Hell." The path to power for Socialists includes taking God and guns from the citizens. Without spiritual and physical protection, people cannot defend themselves and their Liberty . They soon become slaves. We are angered that our President apologizes for the exceptionalism and heroism of theUnited States of America . We are deeply troubled that he told others the United States is not a Christian nation. We are angered that we have been called cowards and racists because we oppose Socialism. Socialism is not racial. Socialism is an equal opportunity destroyer. We are angered that a recent Department of Homeland Security report has singled out our military men and women who are returning home as being radical threats. The report also characterizes you and me as right-wing extremists and radicals because we favor smaller government and lower taxes. You and I are average citizens who believe just like most of our fellow Americans. We want our government to leave us alone and to keep its hands off our money, our religion, our guns, our private property, and our lives. We demand that our government stop spending money it does not have. Stop confiscating our money and private property. Stop printing money. Stop subsidizing Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and the other failed financial institutions and companies. Mr. President, stop appointing tax cheats to positions of power and influence. Mr. President, secure our borders. Mr. President, do not divert money from our missile defense, F-22 Raptors, and other vital military equipment. This gives encouragement, aid, and comfort to our enemies. Protecting us is your number one job. Mr. President, do not give voting rights to millions of illegal aliens and felons. You have no more right to create new voters for your benefit than you do to use our money to buy the 2010 and 2012 Elections. We gather peacefully here today because there is a growing concern for what our government is doing to us and to our future. We fear for the very survival of our Republic. Yet there is much to make us hopeful and to fill our hearts with optimism and courage. This is still our country! The Constitution of the Unites States belongs to We the People. Our Constitution still protects us from our government. Call every possible elected official, including our President, Vice President, and the Speaker of the House. Demand that they stop stealing our money and giving it to ACORN and their other political supporters in order to buy votes. Call Senators Cornyn and Hutchison, and Representative Neugebauer. Thank them. Urge them to do much more. Remind them now is a time for action and not for campaigning. Volunteer to work on our 2010 Census. Confront ACORN. Keep our Census honest. We must not allow our President to take control of our Census for his political advantage. We must replace as much of our Far Left Congress as possible in 2010. Get involved. Do not let the ACORN control our 2010 Election. Talk with someone every day who does not understand our nation's history and our great heritage. Tell them why the United States is a good and prosperous nation. It still remains that brightly lit city on the hill. It still is the best hope for all mankind. Talk with all of the young people you can find. They are our future. Many do not understand what they have and that their future is being destroyed. Encourage your elected State officials to pass legislation that will protect us from our Federal government. This is a time for strong peaceful action. Let us pray that We the People can quickly return our government to its Constitutional responsibilities. Our President and Congress were elected to be our servants and not our masters. May God help our President and Congress to quickly realize the error of their ways and stop their reckless and unwarranted spending, cut our taxes, and reduce the size of our Federal bureaucracy. If they do not, may God grant us the courage and determination to vote them out of power next year. May God richly bless and protect each of you, and our Constitution, as together we pursue Liberty ! Delivered at the Lubbock , Texas , TEA Party by Dr. Donald May This should be on the front page of every newspaper in the USA, instead of being swept under the rug and kept off the news broadcasts. Our news media sucks, plain and simple. They are not "reporting the news,"-- they are telling us what THEY want us to hear and that is not reporting the news. One more step toward Socialism. Let's keep this going so everyone will know the truth. --- ...Awesome! Thanks Del! -<>- >From BizarreNews: -- Missing $2,000 mailed back to owner ---------- OVIEDO, Fla. - A Florida woman who lost her wallet with $2,000 cash at a store said the money was returned by an anonymous woman who said her daughter had the money. Oviedo police said the woman was shopping last week at a Charlotte Russe clothing store in the Oviedo Marketplace shopping center when she accidentally left without pick- ing up her wallet from a bench where she had set it down, WKMG-TV, Orlando, Fla., reported Thursday. Police said the store does not have security cameras and Charlotte Russe employees were unable to locate the wallet. The woman later told police she received a package in the mail containing her wallet, her driver's license and the $2,000. She said the anonymously mailed package included a note from a woman who wrote she had discovered the items among the belongings of her daughter, who had planned to spend the cash at Victoria's Secret. -- Crop circles return to Wash. town ------------- WILBUR, Wash. - Residents of a small Washington town say mysterious crop circles have appeared in wheat fields for the second time in three years. Locals in Wilbur, a town of 960 people 65 miles west of Spokane, Wash., said the talk of the town has been the latest crop designs, discovered in late July on the Haden family's wheat farm, The Seattle Times reported. "This is the one where they put the spaceship landing pad down," Keith Haden joked while pointing out a portion of the design, which encompass- es five rings of varying sizes and one complete circle. Haden and most other locals expressed skepticism about any real extraterrestrial involvement in the design, but a previous crop circle discovered in the town in June 2007 brought loads of tourists and research groups to the area. The Wilbur Chamber of Commerce passed a tongue-in-cheek resolution last year giving "thanks to the Aliens who made Wilbur their Vacation Destination!" 2007 Crop Circle http://www.seattlechatclub.org/CropCircle.html -- Potty punishment principal gets job back --------- EAGAN, Minn. - A Minnesota principal fired for having a kindergartner unclog a toilet with his bare hands has had his punishment lessened by an arbitrator. Doug Steele, who was dismissed unanimously by the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage school board in February for the December incident at Rahn Elementary School in Eagan, successfully appealed his dismissal to an arbitrator. Instead of losing his job, Steele will be suspended for 15 days without pay, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported. Sue Grissom, the district's human resources director, said district officials were disappointed by the ruling but will abide by the arbitrator's decision. However, she said Steele will not be reinstated as principal of Rahn Elementary and will instead be placed in a position of equal stature with duties including coordinating grants, assessments and state accountability reporting. Elijah and Shannon Hannah, the parents of the child who was forced to unclog the toilet with his hands, said they were also disappoint- ed by the ruling. "I'm just mad," Elijah Hannah said Wednesday. "I've been mad since it all happened." ============================================================== >-->From Our Friend Maxy's Pal :) >Different Ways Of Looking At Things (.,------...__ _.'" `. .' .' `, `. `. ` . .' .'/''--...__`. \ . .--.`.

An American tourist complimented the Mexican fisherman on the quality of his fish and asked how long it took him to catch them. "Not very long," answered the Mexican. "But then, why didn't you stay out longer and catch more?" asked the American. The Mexican explained that his small catch was sufficient to meet his needs and those of his family. The American asked, "But what do you do with the rest of your time?" "I sleep late, fish a little, play with my children, and take a siesta with my wife. In the evenings, I go into the village to see my friends, play the guitar, and sing a few songs...I have a full life." The American interrupted, "I have an MBA from Harvard, and I can help you! You should start by fishing longer every day. You can then sell the extra fish you catch. With the extra revenue, you can buy a bigger boat." "And after that?" asked the Mexican. "With the extra money the larger boat will bring, you can buy a second one and a third one and so on until you have an entire fleet of trawlers. Instead of selling your fish to a middle man, you can then negotiate directly with the processing plants and maybe even open your own plant. You can then leave this little village and move to Mexico City, Los Angeles, or even New York City! From there you can direct your huge new enterprise." "How long would that take?" asked the Mexican. "Twenty, perhaps twenty-five years," replied the American. "And after that?" "Afterwards? Well my Friend, That's when it gets really interesting," answered the American, laughing. "When your business gets really big, you can start selling stocks and make millions!" "Millions? Really? And after that?" said the Mexican. "After that you'll be able to retire, live in a tiny village near the coast, sleep late, play with your children, catch a few fish, take a siesta with your wife and spend your evenings doing what you like and enjoying your friends." And the moral is: Know where you're going in life... you may already be there. --- ...So True!
