No, This Cannot Be
Where are you people that say the economy is terrible?
This country is in bad shape!
Is this Bush's fault too!
Where would we be if we just spent what is needed and
not what we don't have?
I bet my family doesn't believe this!

US deficit is shrinking, for now
With the robust economy, tax revenues are
pouring in. But rising costs lie ahead.

Despite the ongoing costs of US military campaigns in Iraq
and Afghanistan, the outlook for the federal budget has grown
substantially brighter.

Idiot
From " Your an idiot file".
Green Bay Press Gazette election results for Brown
County executive.
This is why I worry about the future of our country.
Typical Democrat liberal not knowing what the heck
is going on !
Jason Allen of Green Bay said he went to the polls mostly
to vote against the referendum, and didn't even know who
was running for county executive. He said he voted for
Patrick Evans simply because he liked the name.
"To be honest I picked the last name that
sounded English to me," Allen said.
Then don't vote you idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Under the agreement, the state would receive 20 percent
of the revenue from slot machines for the first two years,

Liberal or a Candy.
According to the Wisconsin Taxpayers Alliance it said

You Libs and Candy's are eating too much meat!
Humans' beef with livestock: a warmer planet
American meat eaters are responsible for 1.5 more
tons of carbon dioxide per person than vegetarians every year.
By Brad Knickerbocker Staff writer of The Christian Science Monitor
As Congress begins to tackle the causes and cures of global warming,
the action focuses on gas-guzzling vehicles and coal-fired power plants,
not on lowly bovines.
Yet livestock are a major emitter of greenhouse gases that cause
climate change. And as meat becomes a growing mainstay of human
diet around the world, changing what we eat may prove as hard as
changing what we drive.
Methane could become a greater problem if the permafrost in
northern latitudes thaws with increasing temperatures, releasing
the gas now trapped below decaying vegetation. What's more
certain is that emissions of these gases can spike as humans
consume more livestock products.
What? we could grow more crops with more tillable land,
I thought we needed to grow more corn for ethanol?
Between 1970 and 2002, annual per capita meat consumption
in developing countries rose from 11 kilograms (24 lbs.) to 29
kilograms (64 lbs.), according to the FAO. (In developed
countries, the comparable figures were 65 kilos and 80 kilos.)
I like this one , no wonder we are all over weight!
We all need to get off our dead butts and all become vegetarians!
Fatty Fatty 2 X 4 , let all have a salad!

Daytona 500
I may be late but it was sure fun to watch the 500.
I have two thoughts,
one ,
if Kevin Harvick was on the inside on that final lap
and Mark Martin was on the outside , you know
Martin would of been shoved into the wall for a for
a Harvick win!
if Kyle Busch was on the inside on that final lap
and Mark Martin was on the outside , you know
Martin would of been shoved into the wall for a for
a Busch win!
if Jeff Gordon was on the inside on that final lap
and Mark Martin was on the outside , you know
Martin would of been shoved into the wall for a for
a Gordon win!
if Dale Earnhart Sr was on the inside on that final lap
and Mark Martin was on the outside , you know Martin
would of been shoved into the wall for a for a Earnhart win!
second thought , ( from my son) If Bobby Labonte was on the
inside and Mark Martin was on the outside it would of made
a great finish between two Great drivers.
I make my point because some will do anything to win
( Look how many people were bounced out for cheating)
and some will win or loose the honest way. Hard work
and good cars is how most drivers should win.
I was not happy the way mark Martin lost the race ,
but he lost fair and square, no bitching , no complaining,
he didn't win the race but he's still a winner in my eyes!
Thanks Mark for good, clean, hard racing

What Does Revenue Mean??????
From the Milwaukee Journal.
Editorial: Warning: Tussles ahead
New or expanded programs mean the need for new revenue.
If the Legislature balks at Doyle's ideas, it should offer its own.
From the Journal Sentinel
Posted: Feb. 15, 2007
Gov. Jim Doyle's latest two-year budget proposal is ambitious
and mostly practical.
The ambition can be seen in his efforts to provide access to
health insurance to 98% of Wisconsinites, to expand the state's
Medicaid program, to ban smoking statewide and in his focus on
the roads and infrastructure vital to the state's economic growth.
The practicality comes in the acknowledgment that new or expanded
programs require new or added revenues.
Can they just be honest and say TAX increase.
All hail King Jim I

A Great Speech- Freedom
On the weekend where congress will vote to support or not
support our troops, I ask you people that are against the war
on terrorism to listen or read (your choice)
to the speech by Ronald Regan.
40th Anniversary of D-Day (Pointe du Hoc)
Remarks at the U.S. Ranger Monument Pointe du Hoc,
France June 6, 1984
One phrase you have to fully understand . It meant so much
63 years ago. It is what we stand for today . Freedom, freedom
men and women die for , so we can have the freedom we have.
Forty summers have passed since the battle that you fought here.
You were young the day you took these cliffs; some of you were
hardly more than boys, with the deepest joys of life before you.
Yet, you risked everything here. Why? Why did you do it?
What impelled you to put aside the instinct for self-preservation
and risk your lives to take these cliffs? What inspired all the men
of the armies that met here? We look at you, and somehow we
know the answer. It was faith and belief; it was loyalty and love.
Link to speech From the Regan Library,
and audio version. It's worth listening to!!!!!!
We are here for freedom and we should never forget what it takes
to be FREE!

Contact: David BromwichBromwich.1@osu.edu

Antarctic temperatures disagree with climate model predictions
COLUMBUS , Ohio – A new report on climate over the world's
southernmost continent shows that temperatures during the late
20th century did not climb as had been predicted by many global
climate models.
This comes soon after the latest report by the Intergovernmental
Panel on Climate Change that strongly supports the conclusion that
the Earth's climate as a whole is warming, largely due to human activity.
It also follows a similar finding from last summer by the same
research group that showed no increase in precipitation over
Antarctica in the last 50 years. Most models predict that both
precipitation and temperature will increase over Antarctica
with a warming of the planet.
What did it say "no increase"

Diamond Jim Score Card
Thanks to Charlie Sykes for keeping score.
With his proposed gas tax, Governor Doyle
has crossed the $1 billion mark in new taxes.
Cigarette taxes
Hospital Taxes
Gas taxes
Rental car taxes
Sales taxes
Property taxes
License fees
Not bad for a guy who campaigned on a "no-tax" theme.
And now taxes for land purchases.
Just keeps adding up!

Gov. Jim Doyle's proposal to provide more funding for a state
land purchase program will heap an estimated $1.6 billion in
new costs on taxpayers in the next 10 years of the initiative.
The spending represents a dramatic increase in the size of
a popular program that has helped protect more than
477,000 acres.
"new costs to taxpayers"- What does this mean?

Hold On To Your Wallets
Doyle seeks tax, fee boosts
He wants to spend more on health care, transportation
By STEVEN WALTERS, STACY FORSTER and PATRICK MARLEYswalters@journalsentinel.com
Posted: Feb. 13, 2007
Madison - Gov. Jim Doyle on Tuesday traded targeted
tax increases - on smokers, hospitals and oil companies -
for more health care and stable funding for the state's
transportation system.
"targeted tax increases"- What does that mean to the average
people of Berry Lake?
It means since we have lake frontage we will see more of a
tax increase compared to others in Oconto County!
"on smokers, hospitals and oil companies"- what does that
mean to the people on Berry Lake?
It means if you don't smoke( I quit on Jan 1st), you don't ever
go to the hospital, you don't drive to work , you don't ride a pontoon
boat in summer, you don't cut lawn or God forbid you don't go to
church on Sunday , you won't get taxed!
Handing the Legislature his two-year budget, the governor
also called for a $20 increase in the annual car registration fee.
The 36% boost would bring it from $55 to $75.
In his re-election campaign last year, he said he supported
an increase of about $10.
36% increase - that means that $6.99 can of coffee will now
cost over $10.00 , That $2 30 gal of Gasoline will now cost
over $ 3.00 a gal, that a $20,000 new vehicle will now cost
over $27,000.00 .Yes your $20,000 collage fee's for your
child just went over $27,000.
Nawwwwwwwwww- 36 % isn't that much!
$20 increase - what does that mean ?
Well this summer we and our neighbors will spend
over $ 600.00 on registration of our vehicles. Oh I forgot,
we and the neighbors have 3 trucks , it will be more
than $600.00 !
Oh I guess the $10 he said before being elected was
a) a lie,
b) Wis is more in debt than we knew last fall, wait
we were told the budget was balanced!
c) you people are sleeping , wake up .
d) you are assuming room temperature and do not know you
passed away!
I always hated those multiple choice questions in school!
Aides said the budget makes good on a campaign promise to
not raise general sales or income taxes.
Oh boy that should make you feel good , all other taxes are
going up (did you catch that) except
GENERAL SALES or INCOME TAXES.
But you know all other taxes will go up !
Do you also understand most state fee's will go up also!
A FEE IS ALSO A TAX TO YOU LIBERALS AND
CANDY's !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOW,
Where do you people think this extra, (he uses the word)
"REVENUES" come from.
For those of us on BERRY LAKE - REVENUES means
Taxes out of our pocket!!!!!!!!!!
He wants to spend more on health care, transportation
By STEVEN WALTERS, STACY FORSTER and PATRICK MARLEYswalters@journalsentinel.com
Posted: Feb. 13, 2007
Madison - Gov. Jim Doyle on Tuesday traded targeted
tax increases - on smokers, hospitals and oil companies -
for more health care and stable funding for the state's
transportation system.
"targeted tax increases"- What does that mean to the average
people of Berry Lake?
It means since we have lake frontage we will see more of a
tax increase compared to others in Oconto County!
"on smokers, hospitals and oil companies"- what does that
mean to the people on Berry Lake?
It means if you don't smoke( I quit on Jan 1st), you don't ever
go to the hospital, you don't drive to work , you don't ride a pontoon
boat in summer, you don't cut lawn or God forbid you don't go to
church on Sunday , you won't get taxed!
Handing the Legislature his two-year budget, the governor
also called for a $20 increase in the annual car registration fee.
The 36% boost would bring it from $55 to $75.
In his re-election campaign last year, he said he supported
an increase of about $10.
36% increase - that means that $6.99 can of coffee will now
cost over $10.00 , That $2 30 gal of Gasoline will now cost
over $ 3.00 a gal, that a $20,000 new vehicle will now cost
over $27,000.00 .Yes your $20,000 collage fee's for your
child just went over $27,000.
Nawwwwwwwwww- 36 % isn't that much!
$20 increase - what does that mean ?
Well this summer we and our neighbors will spend
over $ 600.00 on registration of our vehicles. Oh I forgot,
we and the neighbors have 3 trucks , it will be more
than $600.00 !
Oh I guess the $10 he said before being elected was
a) a lie,
b) Wis is more in debt than we knew last fall, wait
we were told the budget was balanced!
c) you people are sleeping , wake up .
d) you are assuming room temperature and do not know you
passed away!

Right On, Down Under
This sure makes a lot of sense , Received this from E mail ,
Thanks Mike and Larry. After I read this I wish
I lived in Australia.
Excerpts from an on going debate in Australia ..
This is true and can be checked at
http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/australia.asp
Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on
Wednesday to get out of Australia , as the government targeted
radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks.
A day after a group of mainstream Muslim leaders pledged loyalty
to Australia and her Queen at a special meeting with Prime
Minister John Howard, he and his Ministers made it clear that
extremists would face a crackdown. Treasurer Peter Costello,
seen as heir apparent to Howard, hinted that some radical clerics
could be asked to leave the country if they did not accept that
Australia was a secular state, and its laws were made by parliament.
"If those are not your values, if you want a country which has
Sharia law or a theocratic state, then Australia is not for you",
he said on National Television.
"I'd be saying to clerics who are teaching that there are two
laws governing people in Australia : one the Australian law and
another Islamic law that is false. If you can't agree with parliamentary
law, independent courts, democracy, and would prefer Sharia law and
have the opportunity to go to another country, which practices it,
perhaps, then, that's a better option", Costello said.
Asked whether he meant radical clerics would be forced to leave,
he said those with dual citizenship could possibly be asked to move
to the other country. Education Minister Brendan Nelson later told
reporters that Muslims who did not want to accept local values should
"clear off. Basically people who don't want to be Australians, and
who don't want, to live by Australian values and understand them,
well then, they can basically clear off", he said.
Separately, Howard angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday
by saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation's mosques.
Quote: "IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT.
Take It Or Leave It. I am tired of this nation worrying about whether
we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist
attacks on Bali , we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the
majority of Australians."
"However, the dust from the attacks had barely settled when the
'politically correct' crowd began complaining about the possibility
that our patriotism was offending others. I am not against immigration,
nor do I hold a grudge against anyone who is seeking a better life by
coming to Australia ." "However, there are a few things that those
who have recently come to our country, and apparently some born
here, need to understand." "This idea of Australia being a multi-cultural
community has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national
identity. And as Australians, we have our own culture, our own society,
our own language and our own lifestyle."
"This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles,
trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought
freedom"
"We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese,
Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to
become part of our society .. Learn the language!"
"Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing,
political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian
principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented. It is
certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God
offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as
your new home, because God is part of our culture."
"We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is
that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with
us."
"If the Southern Cross offends you, or you don't like "A Fair Go",
then you should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet.
We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we
really don't care how you did things where you came from. By all means,
keep your culture, but do not force it on others.
"This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we
will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done
complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our
Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take
advantage of one other great Australian freedom,
'THE RIGHT TO LEAVE'."
"If you aren't happy here then LEAVE. We didn't force you to come
here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted."
Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves, American citizens will
find the backbone to start speaking and voicing the same truths !
Please SEND THIS TO EVERYBODY YOU KNOW!
It would be nice if others stood up for there country.
