Fw: Definition
Remember when Nancy Pelosi said about Obamacare:
“We have to pass it, to find out what’s in it”
A physician called into a radio show and said:
"That's the definition of a stool sample".
That pretty well sums it up.

FW: GHS1971 - Unemployed vs Out of Work
Subject:GHS1971 - Unemployed vs Out of Work
COSTELLO: I want to talk about the unemployment rate in America .
ABBOTT: Good Subject. Terrible Times. It's 7.8%.
COSTELLO: That many people are out of work?
ABBOTT: No, that's 14.7%
COSTELLO: You just said 7.8%.
ABBOTT: 7.8% Unemployed.
COSTELLO: Right 7.8% out of work.
ABBOTT: No, that's 14.7%.
COSTELLO: Okay, so it's 14.7% unemployed.
ABBOTT: No, that's 7.8%.
COSTELLO: WAIT A MINUTE. Is it 7.8% or 14.7%?
ABBOTT: 7.8% are unemployed. 14.7% are out of work.
COSTELLO: If you are out of work you are unemployed.
ABBOTT: No, Congress said you can't count the"Out of Work" as the unemployed, it makes PresidentObama's employment numbers look bad!You have to look for work to be unemployed.
COSTELLO: BUT THEY ARE OUT OF WORK!!!
ABBOTT: No, you miss his point.
COSTELLO: What point?
ABBOTT: Someone who doesn't look for work can'tbe counted with those who look for work. It wouldn't be fair.
COSTELLO: To whom?
ABBOTT: The unemployed.
COSTELLO: But ALL of them are out of work.
ABBOTT: No, the unemployed are actively looking for work.Those who are out of work gave up looking and if you giveup, you are no longer in the ranks of the unemployed.
COSTELLO: So if you're off the unemployment rolls thatwould count as less unemployment?
ABBOTT: Unemployment would go down. Absolutely!
COSTELLO: The unemployment just goes down becauseyou don't look for work?
ABBOTT: Absolutely it goes down. That's how they get itto 7.8%. Otherwise it would be 14.7%. President Obamadoesn't want you to read about 14.7% unemployment, itmakes him look bad, incompetent, and makes him looklike he doesn't have a clue what he is doing as President.COSTELLO: That would be tough on the Democrats runningfor re-election.ABBOTT: Absolutely!COSTELLO: Wait, I got a question for you. That means thereare two ways to bring down the unemployment number?
ABBOTT: Two ways is correct.
COSTELLO: Unemployment can go down if someone gets a job?
ABBOTT: Correct.
COSTELLO: And unemployment can also go down if youstop looking for a job?
ABBOTT: Bingo.
COSTELLO: So there are two ways to bring unemploymentdown, and the easier of the two is to have people stoplooking for work.
ABBOTT: Now you're thinking like a Democratic Economist.
COSTELLO: I don't even know what the hell I just said!
ABBOTT: Now you're thinking like a Congressman.

Fwd: FW: A State with no Republicans............
Some interesting data on the 'state' of Illinois... There are more people on welfare in Illinois than there are people working. Chicago pays the highest wages to teachers than anywhere else in the U.S. averaging $110,000/year. Their pensions average 80-90% of their income. Wow, are Illinois and Chicago great or what? Be sure to read till the end. I've never heard it explained better. Perhaps the U.S. should pull out of Chicago? Body count: In the last six months, 292 killed (murdered) in Chicago. 221 killed in Iraq; AND Chicago has one of the strictest gun laws in the entire US.Here's the Chicago chain of command: President: Barack Hussein Obama · Senator: Dick Durbin · House Representative: Jesse Jackson Jr. · Governor: Pat Quinn · House leader: Mike Madigan · Atty. Gen.: Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike) · Mayor: Rohm Emanuel · The leadership in Illinois - all Democrats. · Thank you for the combat zone in Chicago. · Of course, they're all blaming each other. · Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any! ·Chicago school system rated one of the worst in the country. Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!
· State pension fund $78 Billion in debt, worst in country. Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!
· Cook County (Chicago) sales tax 10.25% highest in country. Can't blame Republicans; there aren't any!This is the political culture that Obama comes from in Illinois. And he is going to 'fix' Washington politics for us?
· George Ryan is no longer Governor, he is in the prison.
· He was replaced by Rob Blajegovitch who is that's right, also in the prison.
· And Representative Jesse Jackson Jr. resigned a couple of weeks ago, because he is fighting to not be sent to...that's right, prison.
.The Land of Lincoln, where our governors make our license plates.
But you know what?
As long as they keep providing entitlements to the population of Chicago, nothing is going to change, except the state will go broke before the country does.
"Anybody who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the Government take care of him; better take a closer look at the American Indian."Don’t forget Detroit another good example.Some of you might find these data interesting. ALL SHOULD.
There are actually two messages here. The first is very interesting,
but the second is absolutely astounding -- and explains a lot!
A recent "Investor's Business Daily" article provided very interesting statistics from a survey by the United Nations International Health Organization.Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years after diagnosis:U.S. 65%England 46%Canada 42%Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabetes who received treatment within six months:U.S. 93%England 15%Canada 43%Percentage of seniors needing hip replacement who received it within six months:U.S. 90%England 15%Canada 43%Percentage referred to a medical specialist who see one within one month:U.S. 77%England 40%Canada 43%Number of MRI scanners (a prime diagnostic tool) per million people:U.S. 71England 14Canada 18Percentage of seniors (65+), with low income, who say they are in "excellent health":U.S. 12%England 2%Canada 6%And now for the last statistic:National Health Insurance?U.S. NOEngland YESCanada YESAnd check this last set of statistics!!The percentage of each past president's cabinet who had worked in the private business sector prior to their appointment to the cabinet.....You know what the private business sector is. A real-life business, not a Government job. Here are the percentages:T. Roosevelt................... 38% Taft.................................40% Wilson ...........................52%Harding..........................49% Coolidge........................ 48% Hoover ...........................42%F. Roosevelt................... 50% Truman...........................50% Eisenhower....................57% Kennedy.........................30% Johnson..........................47% Nixon..............................53% Ford................................42% Carter.............................32% Reagan...........................56% GH Bush......................... 51% Clinton ..........................39%GW Bush........................ 55% Obama............................. 8% This helps to explain the incompetence of this administration: only 8% of them have ever worked in private business!That's right! Only eight percent -- the least, by far, of the last 19 presidents! And these people are trying to tell our big Corporations how to run their business?How can the president of a major nation and society, the one with the most successful economic system in world history, stand and talk about business when he's never worked for one? Or about jobs when he has never really had one? And when it's the same for 92% of his senior staff and closest advisers?They've spent most of their time in academia, Government and/or non-profit jobs or as "community organizers." They should have been in an employment line.Pass this on because we'll NEVER see these facts in the mainstream media."One of the penalties of not participating in politics is that you will be governed by your inferiors." - Plato

Did you notice whom Obama Threatened?
I have no problem sending this to EVERYONE. Please consider doing
the same.
"Any man who thinks he can be happy and prosperous by letting the
government take care of him had better take a closer look at the
American Indian."
Henry Ford
It's incredible that 42% of Americans think that this unqualified,
incompetent, dishonorable, ego-driven fraud is doing a good job. Take
a moment. Admit it to yourself. You know who his supporters are.
They are the people that YOU support -financially.
Did you notice whom Obama threatened when he wasn't getting his way
on raising the debt ceiling? He threatened not to pay:
Social Security Retirees
Military Retirees
Social Security
Disability and Federal Retirees.
Now let this sink in really well...
He did not threaten to stop payments to illegal aliens.
He did not threaten to take frivolous benefits such as Internet
access away from violent inmates.
He did not offer to fire some of the thousands of unnecessary
federal employees that he hired.
He did not offer to cut down on his or his wife's frivolous
gallivanting around -- $20 Million already spent on family
vacations. (One Million on a FL golf outing). All our money ... why
not?
He didn't threaten farm subsidies.
He did not threaten not to pay the senators and representatives or any
of their staff.
He did not threaten to take benefits away from welfare recipients or
to stop the free cell phones they get.
He did not threaten the food stamp programs.
He did not threaten to reduce payments in foreign aid.
He did not threaten to cut back on anything that involves his base
voters.
The list could go on and on. He is in full political mode!
Why are we allowing this person to destroy this wonderful country
with his selfishness and his lies? Have WE lost our blooming
minds!!!!!!!!
His type of change is killing our country. He needs to be stopped.
Do not forget about his tactics when it's election time 2014.
Get out and Vote in the mid-term election - 2014. Support the people
in the House and Senate that are willing to cut taxes and spending.

But, if you remove just 4 cities from the statistics:

. Detroit
. Washington, DC

The United States is then ranked 4th, from the bottom, in the entire

These 4 cities also have the toughest Gun Control Laws in the United

Fw: Fwd: President Obama Snubs England. Nobody Attends Lady Thatcher's Funeral
To:
President Obama was a no-show at Margaret Thatcher's funeral
despite being invited to attend and thus snubbing England's
invitation as a representative of the American people.
Joe Biden also refused, as did Hillary Clinton.
By the way, former Secretary of State George Schultz went to the funeral.
The British took note of the fact that the Obama administration
chose not to send a single senior member of the Cabinet.
In fact, no actively serving, elected Democrat attended Lady
Thatcher’s funeral.
The Obama Administration did, however, send a formal delegation
of 14 to the funeral of Socialist Dictator Venezuelan President
Hugo Chavez, who died last month.
Need any more RED flags???

Subject: Move over Jimmy Carter
To:
America has had some great presidents, many mediocre ones and a few bad ones. But we’ve never had one like Barack Obama. He’s the first who thinks the job is beneath him. He’s the first who turns political give-and-take into a crisis by refusing to negotiate with Congress. He’s the first who thinks the way to more power is to inflict pain on ordinary people. The move to barricade the World War II memorial reveals the mentality of a tin-pot dictator. The limited government shutdown did not need to affect the memorial because it is open 24 hours, without gates and often without guards.But to turn public opinion in his favor, Obama’s goons trucked in barricades to keep out World War II vets and other visitors. By one estimate, the barricades and workers cost $100,000. The same punish-the-people attitude led to shutdowns of other parks and historic sites that get no federal funding. “We’ve been told to make life as difficult for people as we can. It’s disgusting,” a Park Service ranger told The Washington Times. The ranger cited the order to close the parking lot at George Washington’s home in Mount Vernon so visitors couldn’t use it. The cheap trick captured the contrast between a revered president and the current one. I’ve been saying for a while that there is no bottom to Obama. He’s not just ruthless. He’s without scruples and honor. However the shutdown ends, it will bring only a temporary respite from the crisis atmosphere in Washington. When it comes to his countrymen, Obama always chooses conflict over cooperation.Meanwhile, Jimmy Carter can rest easy. We have a new worst president.

Subject: Very good observation about a "simple sign"Very good observation about a "simple sign" being shown:
Subject: Storming the Barricades in Washington
I have worked in the government on and off for 40 years. During that time I became quite familiar with requisitions, bidding, awarding contracts etc. It is a time consuming process with bean-counters and pencil-necked bureaucrats every step of the way. The simplest requesttakes months.. not days or hours.
Now follow me please.. let it sink in of what it takes...... In less than 8 hours of the shutdown, miraculously, professionally printed 3X4 foot signs appeared all over the country in the tens of thousandssaying this [park, facility, etc. with custom logos for EACH parks name on it] was closed due to government shutdown.. let THAT sink in...
There has not been a government shutdown in 17 years. These signs were designed, specifications were determined, signs were then requisitioned, bids were posted and vetted, government contracts were awarded...... in 8 HOURS!!
The materials were then ordered and the signs manufactured then distributed by U. S. Mails or freight companies.. the fastest they could possibly have had them would be over-night...... ALL of this in EIGHT HOURS!!!!
Something as simple as a sign PROVES This shutdown was orchestrated and planned well in advance at least 6-8 month ago.
Millions of tax dollars were appropriated and spent in this process.... in 8 hours
There is a paper trail a mile long leading directly to the White House.. Like that's a big surprise...
However, something as simple as a freshly painted sign being made AND SHOWN in just a few hours raises suspicion... it seems like a simple overlook to everyone else, but after 40 years of Government work I knew the TRUTH was right there driven into the ground, or posted at the Main gate. Let me remind you, 10's of THOUSANDS were made! With the Parks names on them!! Common sense must kick in at some point. At LEAST 6 to 8 months ago.
