From the editor:

The campaign trail is getting nuttier as we get closer to the election! As our reporter on the trail has found out, there is a real lack of discussion regarding the issues so the campaign's have resorted to a more engaging tactic. It's not getting much coverage in the press, but it could be the answer to making politics more interesting to the average American.

Unlike 60 Minutes that uses forged documents to make their case: We do our homework and only report the facts. That's why unlike CBS, we are growing leaps and bounds as the news organization to watch!

Thanks for your few minutes of support each week!

The weeks most interesting

60 Minutes documents used to discredit the President's service in the National Guard are most likely forgeries!!!

If the world could vote, they would vote Kerry. What is the purpose of this survey. Does anyone think the rest of the world has our best interest in mind? This has one purpose: To influence our election. Will you let the rest of the world influence you?

The response to the latest terror act in Russia. No one can be safe until the world has chased down and destroyed every terrorist organizations.

I would rather see a "Flat Tax" than a "National Sales Tax" replace our current federal income tax system. But at least a debate has started and may be picking up steam!

Kerry gets an "F" from his hometown paper. Granted it's the Herald not the Globe.

Original music scene & not so original...

Common sense?

Stop hugging my daughter? No way!!!!!

 

Great article on the issue on Grandparents rights. Should they have rights at all?

 

 

Did you know?

53% of workers 16 or older in LA County are functionally illiterate. Of course it's the systems failure. God forbid we become responsible for ourselves. No wonder the crime rate in LA County is one of the highest in the country!

Subject: Very Interesting

 

IRAQ - VERY INTERESTING - DID YOU KNOW?

1. The garden of Eden was in Iraq.

2. Mesopotamia, which is now Iraq, was the cradle of civilization!

3. Noah built the ark in Iraq.

4. The Tower of Babel was in Iraq.

5. Abraham was from Ur, which is in Southern Iraq!

6. Isaac's wife Rebekah is from Nahor, which is in Iraq.

7. Jacob met Rachel in Iraq.

8. Jonah preached in Nineveh - which is in Iraq.

9. Assyria, which is in Iraq, conquered the ten tribes of Israel.

10. Amos cried out in Iraq!

11. Babylon, which is in Iraq, destroyed Jerusalem.

12. Daniel was in the lion's den in Iraq!

13. The three Hebrew children were in the fire in Iraq (Jesus had been
in Iraq also as the fourth person in the fiery furnace!)

14. Belshazzar, the King of Babylon saw the "writing on the wall" in Iraq.

15. Nebuchadnezzar, King of Babylon, ca ! rried the Jews captive into Iraq.

16. Ezekiel preached in Iraq.

17. The wise men were from Iraq.

18. Peter preached in Iraq.

19. The "Empire of Man" described in Revelation is called Babylon, which was
a city in Iraq!

And you have probably seen this one. Israel is the nation most often
mentioned in the Bible. But do you know which nation is second? It is
Iraq! However, that is not the name that is used in the Bible. The names
used in the Bible are Babylon, Land of Shinar, and Mesopotamia. The word
Mesopotamia means between the two rivers, more exactly between the Tigris
and Euphrates Rivers. The name Iraq, means country with deep roots.

Indeed Iraq is a country with deep roots and is a very significant country in
the Bible.

No other nation, except Israel, has more history and prophecy associated it
than Iraq.

And also... This is something to think about! Since America is typically
represented! by an eagle. Saddam should have read up on his Muslim
passages...< BR>
The following verse is from the Koran, (the Islamic Bible)

Koran (9:11) - For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a
fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the
lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair
still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of
Allah; and there was peace.

(Note the verse number!) Hmmmmmmm?! God Bless you all Amen !
 

Fact, fiction, or funny

        

Simon says: Measure a foot, Simon says: measure a yard, Simon says, touch your nose, Simon says: squinch your nose.

News from the campaign trail:

With the election only 54 days away, reporters following the campaigns have run out of substantive questions to ask the candidates and their surrogates, so they have resorted to impromptu games of Simon says. Our reporter asked the campaign's what they thought of the media's new approach. Kerry said, "it is a welcome change since I have run out of sides to be on the issues". The president's campaign spokesman suggested the president would keep playing as long as, "Dick Cheney can play too". Al Gore, campaigning for Kerry said, " It is nice to be back in the game, and it's a game I think I can win". Our reporter was not sure how the voters would receive this new media tactic so he went to the streets of New York City. Our reporter asked our man on the street, "what do you think of the candidates playing Simon says instead of addressing the issues in this election?". To which they responded, "what election?" Enough said. This campaign is becoming a real nail biter!

Murphy's Laws of Work

Don't be irreplaceable, if you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.
A pat on the back is only a few centimeters from a kick in the pants.
There will always be beer cans rolling on the floor of your car when the boss asks for a ride home from the office.
Never delay the ending of a meeting or the beginning of a cocktail hour.
You can go anywhere you want if you look serious and carry a clipboard.
The last person that quit or was fired will be the one held responsible for everything that goes wrong.
If you are good, you will be assigned all the work. If you are really good, you will get out of it.
