Good Morning; I found this at "Unfiltered News", a site produced by G. Edward Griffin, author of the book: "The Creature from Jekyll Island". It seems to describe the "norm" in America today.
WHAT HAS AMERICA BECOME? 2011 Nov 14 from Ken Huber, Tawas City, Michigan
Has America become the land of the special interest and home of the double standard?
Let’s see, if we lie to the Congress it’s a felony, and if the Congress lies to us it’s just politics; if we dislike a black person we’re racist, and if blacks dislike other races, it’s their First Amendment right; the government spends millions to rehabilitate criminals and they do almost nothing for the victims; in public schools you can teach that homosexuality is OK but you better not use the word God in the process; you can kill an unborn child, but it is wrong to execute a mass murderer; we don’t burn books in America, we now rewrite them; we got rid of the threat from communists and socialists by renaming them progressives; we are unable to close our border with Mexico, but have no problem protecting the 38th parallel in Korea; if you protest against president Obama’s policies you’re a terrorist, but if you burned an American flag, it’s your first-Amendment right.
You can have pornography on your TV or internet, but you better not have a Nativity Scene in a public park during Christmas; we have eliminated all criminals in America, they are now called sick people; we can use a human fetus for medical research, but it’s wrong to use an animal.
We take money from those who work hard for it and give it to those who do not want to work; we all support the Constitution but only when it supports our political ideology; we still have freedom of speech, but only if we are being politically correct; parenting has been replaced with Ritalin and video games; the land of opportunity is now the land of handouts; the similarity between Hurricane Katrina and the Gulf oil spill is neither President did anything to help.
And how do we handle a major crisis today? The government appoints a committee to determine who’s at fault, then threatens them, passes another law, raises our taxes; tells us the problem is solved.
What has happened to the land of the free and home of the brave?
I know I'm preaching to the choir here, but I think this needs to be in every one's mail box. Maybe it will wake up more people to the problems we face. One can only hope! About the only things that were not mentioned, are the necessities of ousting the United Nations from our political process (and our land), and the dismemberment of the Federal Reserve and all it's associated "little" banks throughout America. Return to our Constitutional Republican form of government by putting staunch Constitutionalists into our halls of government.

I DON'T THINK I LIKE OLD AGE
I noticed the changes at 60. There were some body aches and the bed was only comfortable for about 5 hours. I began to look at the patients differently. I'd go by a room and here was a nurse or a tech trying to keep that old person in bed, and that old person was getting cantankerous. Used to, I'd get that old person back into bed. He was safer. They have a heck of a habit of falling. Then one day, after 60, I found myself getting cantankerous and telling that nurse or aid to let the old person up and let him sit in the chair for a while -- his body was probably hurting all over from lying in bed. I'd get these crooked looks back. I turned gray at 29, which up until then had always been an asset. I got listened to without expending too much effort. After 60, my body caught up with my hair and I found I wasn't being listened to, treated as somewhat dumb, hard of hearing maybe, and just plain not equal. And Heaven forbid I fall into discussion with a young, college-aged Democrat. Those kids just plain don't have any respect for our country, our government, our elected leaders, our military, or ordinary Americans.
At 60, I also quit working at Medical Center. I took a month off and played computer games. Then ole Montanez wrote a few letters and we all started fighting on the editorial page until Vicky Gomez told us to shut up. Montanez did. Wonder what happened to him? The rest of us haven't, but Montanez started me searching the web. The world is an entirely different place than I thought it was.
Those authority figures in government like senators and U.S. Representatives have turned out to be some of the most rotten skalawags I could ever imagine. Our good-looking Texas governor is busy selling us down the river while ensuring his son or his son-in-law, I forget, has a good position with Merck. Kay Bailey Hutchison acts like a dingy, high-school cheerleader fawning over football players on the Senate floor. Her office staff evidently has stacks of pre-printed letters to send out and they don't care whether their choice of reply letter pertains to the issue you addressed or not. Kyl Selinger ALWAYS sends out post-cards in reply to his constituancy contacts stating, effectively, "That's not my job," until I'm wondering if he has any job at all. And, although I've been observing him closely for 3 years, I can't decide whether John Cornyn is for us or against us. I'm counting the days until Bush leaves office and hate to get up in the morning and face what he's done the previous day. His side-kick, Cheney, has given up all pretenses and declared himself to be above the law and accountable to no one. I could go on and on, but what put me on this tirade this morning is our illustrous U.N.
Evidently, they're trying to take our guns away from us. But that's been going on for quite some time, almost from the git-go.
