U.S. Supreme Court Confers On Obama Eligibility

"I began to suspect that Daddy had been right all along: the only hope I had of changing the world was to change myself first. I thought of the many times that he and I had delivered fresh-picked farm produce to one of our elderly relatives. On such occasions he never failed to remind me that if we hadn’t worked so hard to grow it, we wouldn’t be able to give it to those who needed help. For the past few years, I’d been sneering at the simple mindedness of his philosophy of self-reliance, but now it was making sense to me again. If I was truly serious about helping other people, I’d have to start by helping myself..."

including this American family's private time to honor and remember their American hero.

This is the crash site of Lt. Virgil P. Kirkham, the last recorded American USAAF pilot killed in
Europe during WWII. It was Lt. Kirkham's 82nd mission and one that he volunteered to go on. At the time, this 20-year-old pilot's P-47 Thunderbolt plane was shot down, a young 14-year-old Czech girl, Zdenka Sladkova, was so moved by his sacrifice she made a vow to care for him and his memory. For 65 straight years, Zdenka, now 79-years-old, took on the responsibility to care for Virgil's crash site and memorial nearer home.

On May 4th, she was recognized by the Mayor of Zdenka's home town of Trhanova , Czech Republic, for her sacrifice and extraordinary effort to honor this American hero.

Another chapter in this important story... the Czech people are teaching their children about America's sacrifice for theirfreedom.
Description: cid:X.MA11.1281457258@aol.com
American Soldiers, young and old, are the ''Rock Stars'' these children and their parents want autographs from.
Description: cid:X.MA12.1281457258@aol.com
Yes, Rock Stars! As they patiently waited for his autograph, the respect this little Czech boy and his father have for our troops serving today was heartwarming and inspirational.

The Brian LaViolette Foundation established The Scholarship of Honor in tribute to General George S. Patton and the American Soldier, past and present.
Description: cid:X.MA14.1281457258@aol.com
Each year, a different military hero will be honored in tribute to General Patton's memory and their mission to liberate Europe . This award will be presented to a graduating senior who will be entering the military or a form of community service such as fireman,policeman, teaching or nursing -- a cause greater than self. The student will be from 1 of the 5 high schools in Pilsen , Czech Republic .

The first award will be presented in May 2011 in honor of Lt. Virgil Kirkham, that young 20-year-old P-47 pilot killed 65 years ago in the final days of WWII.
Description: cid:X.MA16.1281457258@aol.com
Presenting Virgil's award will be someone who knows the true meaning of service and sacrifice... someone who looks a lot like Virgil. Marion Kirkham, Virgil's brother, who himself served during WWII in the United States Army Air Corps!

In closing... Here is what the city of Pilsen thinks of General Patton's grandson. George Patton Waters (another Rock Star!) we're proud to say, serves on Brian's Foundation board.

Pentagon, Military Actively War Gaming ‘Large Scale Economic Breakdown’ And ‘Civil Unrest’

"The Army, in a year-long war games series called Unified Quest 2011, is looking at a variety of possibilities and how to deal with them, including:
  • the implications of “large scale economic breakdown” inside of the United States
  • how to maintain “domestic order amid civil unrest”
  • and ways to deal with fragmented global power and drastically lower budgets

Liberals And Indians

"For liberals, Thanksgiving now is becoming wholly personal and individual. Liberals have denied the honor of nationhood, condemning it to a Muslim hell. Yet liberals pretend to care about Indians? Liberals make me laugh, then cry. Then I get angry. Liberals, keep your care. I don’t want it. I hate it. It is the most false and offensive thing that could be offered to Indians. You hate nationhood, but you think you can honor Indians–the greatest lovers of nationhood the modern world has ever seen?"

DEAR FRIENDS,

Please send brand new faxes that have been posted on your NumbersUSA Action Boards.

www.NumbersUSA.com/actionbuffet

We think we have picked up a couple more NO votes on the DREAM Act amnesty and are winning overall in our chances to defeat it -- thanks to all of your phoning and faxing.

But the open-borders people are not giving up and have a whole new push.

So, please fill the Senate offices with faxes over the holidays.

Also, please look at the phone notes on your Action Board and the phone alert I emailed to you yesterday and keep the phone calls coming through today.

I am getting ready to walk into a funeral for a family patriarch in Texarkana, Texas. So, I don't have time or resources fully at my disposal to tell you more about the amnesty fight right now. But please do your part today.

Thank you,

-- ROY

China, Russia Quit Dollar

Corruption

"Texas is going to make big gains in the census and pick up some congressional districts. Conservatives across the country must be concerned that the man who will have the heaviest hand in drawing those lines is 100% NARAL supported and ridiculously corrupt."

Happy Starvation Day

"What private property does -- as the Pilgrims discovered -- is connect effort to reward, creating an incentive for people to produce far more. Then, if there's a free market, people will trade their surpluses to others for the things they lack. Mutual exchange for mutual benefit makes the community richer"

Those Who Live By The Sword, Die By The Sword

"......Obama is silent about the porno scanners and the humiliation millions of Americans are going through at the airports. He is instructed by his masters to remain silent so more people get angry and (hopefully) revolt......"
