Thank God! Tonight (01/19/10) is the first time since the November election that I've felt there is hope for my children's future. Congratulations Senator Brown!
YOU JUST MIGHT WANT TO PRINT THIS, FILE IT AWAY AND PULL IT OUT IN A YEAR OR SO.

Here is another warning from a very knowledgeable person from the Hollywood sector that is not a preaching Democrat. His words are spooky.
The writer of this essay is Jerry Molen, an Academy Award winning
Hollywood Producer, who produced Jurassic Park, Hook, Rain Man and
many more classy movies, and who won the Academy Award for
Schindler's List. Jerry is one of the very few conservatives in
Hollywood - but wants to include Democrats. He says:
We are about to make the Mother-of-All-Mistakes, because the
Republican Party gave us no reliable alternative. If the
conservative movement does not rally behind the only alternative
left to us, this country will become a true Socialist State within
the next two Presidential terms.
Ladies and Gentleman , this is the most grave situation this nation
has faced in my lifetime. We just experienced an overhyped,
outrageous primary election season that has left me wondering where
the heads of our citizens are hiding - must be someplace where the
sun doesn't go very often.
At one time in my life I was a determined, dedicated and ever-loyal
registered Democrat. Then something happened - Lyndon Baines Johnson
- that turned my life around and gave me pause for the veracity of a
party that lives and feeds off of the most unfortunate among us.
Some of them are in their positions in life by their own choosing,
others by outside circumstance. But always, always there was a door
open to them, to reach for new heights, achieve new goals, change
their lives for the better. Similarly, there have always been the
bottom feeders, doing what they could to take advantage of those who
had not or have not seen better days, nor realized that they in fact
were the masters of their own destiny - these unfortunates had come
to believe that they were dependent on people in Washington, who
would look out for and take care of them. They waited and still wait
for all those promised freebies.
Most people don't reflect upon the fact that the Democrats ruled
Washington for over 40 years; it wasn't until 1994 when the
so-called Gingrich Revolution changed - but only for a while. These
same people do not realize that it was the Democrats who created the
failed policies of the entitlement programs that are now falling
apart before our eyes.
Do not think I find the Republicans blameless in all this. They,
too, suffer from the ego and greed built into our system.. But in
the past few months I have listened with growing horror to the
railings of the left, calling for yet more giveaways, more promises
of a proverbial 'free lunch.' What sums up my feelings, why I am
appalled by those in political power is contained within a quote by
basketball legend and talk show host Charles Barkley: 'Poor people
have been voting for Democrats for the last fifty years....and they
are still poor.'
Now, with our elections, come yet more new promises of 'change:'
'change we can believe in,' 'hope for the future'. But if you
really, I mean REALLY listen to what the new messiah is asking for,
it is not 'change of policy' or 'change for the better' - this is a
warning that he wants our change. And the change you will get will
not be the change you expected or wanted.
I leave you my predictions of what will happen if the junior Senator
from Illinois becomes President - especially if the House and Senate
are veto-proof Democrat:
1). Strict gun laws, though he promised he would not.
2). 'In God We Trust' will be removed from all currency.
3). He will renege on his pledge to Israel and leave them to the
wolves of Islam.
4). Hillary Clinton will be named to the Supreme Court.
5). Tax rates will surge to the highest levels in 30 years.
6). Capital gains tax will be at least double current levels..
7). Retired Army General Wesley Clark will be named Secretary of
Defense.
8). Your borders will be open to all comers - especially from the
Middle East and South America .
9). Amnesty will be granted to all illegal's in the US regardless of
status or even gang membership (think MS-13).
10). Our presence in Iraq will come to an abrupt end - with tragic
results to their citizens and devastating consequences to our
military.
My predictions will not sit well with some people.
Irony is truly a
delightful affair.
