W.L. Swarts For Congress
Novelist and political columnist W.L. Swarts is running against John McHugh in New York's 23rd District for the United States House of Representatives.

Read the speech W.L. delivered by clicking here!

http://www.wlswarts.com/
Editor's Note: After email exchanges and a nice phone conversation my wife and I had with W.L. Swarts on 8/9/2005, I must say... We sure hope Mr. McHugh will be forced into retiring as our congressmen in November 2006.  After several exchanges with John McHugh, he has make it perfectly clear that he doesn't listen to or care what his constituency thinks. W.L. Swarts on the other hand, wants the input of the people like it is suppose to be in America.
Good Luck WL Swarts, we need a Congressmen like you !
Sincerely, Rev. Neil Colton
( In case any of you are wondering like we were at first, WL aren't Mr. Swarts' initials, WL is his legal first name, like 'BJ Hunnicut' on the TV show M.A.S.H. :)

From Vote to Impeach.org
September 24: Impeachment March on Washington
Join the Impeachment Contingent at the Next Huge Anti-War Demonstration White House - 12 noon
The next big step for the Impeachment Movement will be on September 24 when more than 100,000 people will descend on Washington DC to the doors of the White House, and in actions in San Francisco and Los Angeles, to demand that George W. Bush and his administration be held accountable for the ongoing lies, deceptions, death, and torture. It is only "politics" that has been a shield for the Bush administration as it attempts to avoid responsibility for its criminal conduct. But the politics of the country are changing rapidly. Bush's approval rating is at an all time low, the number of people opposing the handling of the war has soared to 70%, and a clear majority believe that the Bush administration should never have invaded Iraq to begin with.

Symbolic of the importance the Bush Administration places on women's health, a male veterinarian has been appointed by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Lester Crawford as acting director of the Office of Women's Health. Norris E. Alderson, PhD, has spent the majority of his career at the FDA holding various positions in the Center for Veterinary Medicine.
The Office for Women’s Health, which ensures that the FDA remains gender sensitive and monitors the progress of women’s health initiatives, was most recently headed by Dr. Susan Wood. Wood resigned late last month in protest over the FDA’s refusal to grant over-the-counter status to emergency contraception.

On September 18, 1787, as Benjamin Franklin emerged from the meeting, at the close of the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia where our Constitutional Republic was formed, Mrs. Powel directly asked him, “Well, Doctor, what have we got?  A republic or a monarchy?”  Mr. Franklin responded,
 “A republic, if you can keep it.”

The Senate Judiciary Committee hearings have ended and the jig is up. Although Roberts characterized his judicial role as merely an "umpire," he consistently played hide the ball about his views during the questioning, Marjorie Cohn explains. Nevertheless, Roberts' disingenuousness came through in spite of his evasions. And the senators have enough information about Roberts' record to know he would move the Court dramatically to the right, eviscerating the hard-earned gains of the civil rights movement...

...Lewis said, "I fear that if Judge Roberts is confirmed to be Chief Justice of the United States, the Supreme Court would no longer hear the people's cries for justice. I feel that the leadership of the court would promote politics over the protection of individual rights and liberties. If the federal courts had abandoned us in the civil rights movement, in the name of judicial restraint, we might still be struggling with the burden of legal segregation in America today."..

A monologue from Bill Maher. If you think it will offend you, don't read it!
Mr. President, this job can't be fun for you any more. There's no more money to spend--you used up all of that.
 You can't start another war because you used up the army. And now, darn the luck, the rest of your term has become the Bush family nightmare: helping poor people. Listen to your Mom. The cupboard's bare, the credit cards maxed out. No one's speaking to you. Mission accomplished.
Now it's time to do what you've always done best: lose interest and walk away. Like you did with your military service and the oil company and the baseball team. It's time. Time to move on and try the next fantasy job. How about cowboy or space man? Now I know what you're saying: there's so many other things that you as President could involve yourself in. Please don't. I know, I know. There's a lot left to do. There's a war with Venezuela. Eliminating the sales tax on yachts. Turning the space program over to the church. And Social Security to Fannie Mae. Giving embryos the vote.
But, Sir, none of that is going to happen now. Why? Because you govern like Billy Joel drives. You've
performed so poorly I'm surprised that you haven't given yourself a medal. You're a
catastrophe that walks like a man. Herbert Hoover was a sh_tty president,
but even he never conceded an entire city to rising water and snakes.
On your watch, we've lost almost all of our allies, the surplus, four airliners, two trade centers, a piece of the Pentagon and the City of New Orleans. Maybe you're just not lucky. I'm not saying you don't love this country. I'm just wondering
how much worse it could be if you were on the other side.
So, yes, God does speak to you. What he is saying is: 'Take a hint.'

Back To The News
WASHINGTON - (KRT) - Christian broadcaster Pat Robertson caused heartburn in Washington and consternation in Latin America on Tuesday in calling for the assassination of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.

"I think we really ought to go ahead and do it. It's a whole lot cheaper than starting a war," Robertson said during Monday evening's broadcast of "The 700 Club," his Christian news-talk television show. "We have the ability to take him out, and I think the time has come that we exercise that ability."
http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/news/politics/12456432.htm

Editor's Note to the story above:  Being a Christian means to be "Christ Like" or "Like Jesus Christ".  Jesus came to earth and gave his life in the promotion of world peace.  So any "So called Christian" who is promoting the killing of other people as Pat Robertson has done, thus breaking God's commandments... Is not a Christian at all, but a wolf in sheep's clothing, an evil person, working for the dark side etc...  Personally, I feel sorry for any and all people who have been suckered into giving Pat Robertson any money !
After all, based on the wording of the Christian Bible...
 Pat Robertson's words are nothing short of declaring war against God Himself.

Sincerely,
Reverend Neil Colton

Don't say they can't. They can - and they did. Despite every calumny, it turns out that the Bush administration can put together an effective, well-coordinated rescue team and get crucial supplies to militarily occupied, devastated New Orleans on demand, in time, and just where they are most needed. Last Thursday, in a spectacular rescue operation, the administration team delivered just such supplies without a hitch to one of the city's neediest visitors, who had been trapped in hell-hole surroundings for almost three weeks by Hurricane Katrina. I'm speaking, of course, of George W. Bush.

One day a little girl was sitting and watching her mother do the dishes at the kitchen sink. She suddenly noticed that her mother had several strands of white hair sticking out in contrast on her brunette head. She looked at her mother and inquisitively asked, "Why are some of your hairs white, Mom?"
Her mother replied, "Well, every time that you do something wrong and make me cry or unhappy, one of my hairs turns white." The little girl thought about this revelation for a while and then said,

Some Thoughts
And the Nintendo generation is all part of their plan !
Welcome to modern day slavery... Where the draft is coming back, the new war machines run with controls much like Nintendo, Where it takes 2-3 incomes to keep an average house running...
What is modern day slavery you might ask ? It's when and where one income from one 40 hour work week will not cover your cost of living. Food, rent, medical, dental, the cloths you wear, insurance, a car, taxes, etc.. ALL OF IT. Where we buy cheap from companies that don't pay their help enough to get off of food stamps unless they have more than one income. Where both parents are working while the TV and video games do the babysitting and big brother is deciding what they should see or play. Where family closeness all but disappears because everyone in the family is too involved with self preservation to see the big picture. Followed by war, lots of wars, a thinning of the herd as some would say,
separating the rich from the poor, and eventually....
More on Modern Day Slavery coming soon... We're living it, so we might as well talk about it.

can do is to turn to the internet in search of the truth."

New York State Facts - kids room



What is a Billion?
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one
advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into
perspective in one of its releases:
A billion seconds ago
- it was 1959.
A billion minutes ago - Jesus was alive
A billion hours ago-
our ancestors were living in the Stone Age.
A billion dollars ago - was only 8 hours and 20 minutes, at the
rate that the Federal Government in Washington D.C. spends it.

Editor's Note:  A viewer wrote in on 6/29/2005, telling me the statement above was wrong.
 Here is what he had to say...

On your website you have a statement about what is a billion:
1 Billion Seconds ago it was 1973 not 1959
1 Billion Minutes ago Jesus had died and been risen for over 60 years
Depending on the Budget the 8hrs 20min might actually be a lot faster.
(The 8.333hrs is dependent on a yearly budget of 1.051 Trillion dollars)
His source: www.snopes.com

My Thoughts...
Since the annual budget that President Bush proposed for the up coming year is over 2.4 Trillion dollars... That would mean that our government is now spending your tax dollars at the rate of over 2 billion dollars every 8 hours !
*****************
Despite what President Bush says, the war on Iraq is not over. The cost of this war to the American tax payer is going up every second. Since we can't put a price on human lives, we will just give you the figures in tax dollars that the American tax payers have paid as of right now. These figures were provided by the Costofwar.com website.
