A NEW TWENTY?

THE GREAT MINDS AT WORK IN WASHINGTON HAVE COME UP WITH A BEAN-BAG IDEA.  WITH ALL THAT IS GOING ON IN THE WORLD TODAY AND THE ECONOMY CRUMBLING AROUND US THE CLOWN IN THE TREASURY OFFICE HAS DECIDED TO REMOVE JACKSON FROM THE TWENTY DOLLAR BILL.  WHY? YOU SAY?  SO THE HERO OF NEW ORLEANS  AND THE 7TH PRESIDENT AND FIRST PROGRESSIVE, THE FOUNDER OF THE DEMOCRATE PARTY CAN MAKE ROOM FOR HARRIET TUBBMAN.  NOW HARRIET MAY BE WORTHY OF SUCH RECOGNITION FOR HER ROLE IN SAVING RUNAWAY SLAVES BUT SURELY NOT AT THE EXPENSE OF SUCH A MAN.  WHY NOT JUST PRINT A NEW DENOMINATION?.....Medicineman!

Admiral Nimitz--The Man

On Christmas Day, 1941 Admiral Chester W. Nimitz arrived at Pearl Harbor to take command of the devastated American Base.  He was dressed in an unfamiliar khaki uniform, too big for him.  Khaki was new to the Navy and Nimitz had been used to Navy Blues.  He looked like anything but the answer to the Pacific Fleet's problem.
But as history records Nimitz WAS the man for the job.
Admiral Nimitz prayed this prayer:  "God grant me the courage not to give up on what I think is right even though I think it is hopeless".  Now you know!.......Medicineman!

A Legacy?

Barry, or, if you prefer, Barack Obama promised that "Gitmo" would be empty by the time he leaves office.  Today some more of the low-life confined there went back home or somewhere else to continue their interrupted Jihad against us "Infidels".  There remain there 89 inmates of which 35 are already slated to be released.  The man sitting in the white house, elected twice by the American people, claims to be Christian while behaving like a muslim, which, by the way, he promised to stand with when push comes to shove.  You ponder the situation, as I do, and wonder and wonder and?......Medicineman!

HE SAID HE WOULD!

TODAY IN WYOMING THERE ARE SOME 500 MORE PEOPLE OUT OF WORK---COAL MINERS.  WHEN OBAMA CAME TO POWER HE SAID THAT HE WOULD SAVE THE WORLD BY CUTTING OUT THE USE OF COAL.  YEP---INSTEAD OF COAL FOR ENERGY WE WOULD BUILD AND USE LOTS OF WINDMILLS (YES WE HAVE SOME IN THIS STATE) AND SOLAR PANELS TOO AND BY DOING THIS THERE WOULD NO LONGER BE ANY NEED FOR COAL OR NATURAL GAS.  YOU KNOW, FOR HEAVENS SAKE THOSE THINGS ARE NASTY, SMELLY AND DANGEROUS.  AND BESIDES THEY CREATE "GLOBAL WARMING" NOW CALLED "CLIMATE CHANGE" AND ALL THE STUFF THAT HAPPENS THEN.  "GOLLY-GEE"!  OF COURSE THIS IS BASED ON JUNK SCIENCE AND THERE ARE AS MANY OR MORE SCIENTISTS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THIS ISSUE.

BUT, LIKE I SAID, OBAMA DID EXACTLY WHAT HE SAID HE WOULD DO AND WE LET HIM.  THAT REALLY TAKES THE CAKE!..........Medicineman!
