George Who?
The other day I received a fund raising letter from Mrs. Robert
E. Lee IV. Yes, there is such a person and she is Vice Regent of
the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association. George Washington's home,
Mount Vernon, is not a public park or federal land as many believe.
Mount Vernon has been maintained by the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association
since 1858. George Washington's Mount Vernon would be a heap of
rubble had it not been for this organization.
NYC School says"NO" to "GOD
BLESS YOU"
According to a New York Post story, the New York City Board
of Education has banned the phrase "God bless you" from
school property. A sign saying God Bless You was placed in front
of the Beach Channel High School by its parents' association. A
member of the teachers' union complained said David Scott Pecoraro,
a union lawyer.
Board of Education spokeswoman Margie Feinberg confirmed that the
board had determined the sign to be "inappropriate."
ACLU wants Satan in Florida city
While "God bless you" is being kicked out of the New York
schools, the ACLU is working like the devil to get Satan back into
Inglis, Florida. It seems that last Halloween Mayor Carol Risher
signed a proclamation banning Satan from the town. She had the proclamation
posted at the four major entrances to the small community of some
1400 souls, 75 miles north of Tampa.
Stop the ACLU money machine
How can we stop the ACLU and their destructive practices? One way
is to shut down one of their many extortion rackets. We can force
the ACLU to pay their own legal fees instead of forcing school districts
and others to finance their racket.
Religion in school? Islam is 'OK' in
CA
Christians nationwide were shocked to learn that many Middle
Schools in California require children to dress in Muslim robes,
call themselves Muslims and learn to become warriors to fight for
Islam.
Atheists go to Salem
Actually the next American Atheists Convention is in Boston, Massachusetts,
but the organization plans a side trip to the top spot for witchcraft
in America. The American Atheists promotional material tells members
to "jump start" their atheist convention experience with
a trip to Salem, Massachusetts and the Salem Witch Museum.
Don't check the Muslims for bombs!
Believe it or not, that is what the "FAA Guidance for Screeners
and Other Security Personnel" has to offer as security guidelines
to airlines, just in case you wondered why a seventy-seven year
old U. S. Congressman was asked to drop his pants during a strip
search.
Mixed White House signals
Can a president be all things to all people? President Bush's advisors
seem to think so. Great news came out of the White House the week
of January the 28th. Secretary Tommy Thompson of Health and Human
Resources (HHS) announced that he would seek to change policy to
allow State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) to cover
unborn children. This would for the first time since Roe vs. Wade
give a fetus the standing of a human being under law.
