 TAKE A FEW MOMENTS AND READ THIS LETTER. THESE ARE STRONG, POWERFUL AND COURAGEOUS WORDS COMING FROM A RETIRED COLONEL, AND READ WHAT LINCOLN HAD TO SAY AT THE END. WOW!                                                  
                                     33 Senators Voted against English as America 's Official Language on June 6, 2007. On Wed. 6 June 2007, Colonel Harry Riley , USA , Ret. wrote:                                               
      Senators: Your vote against an amendment to the immigration Bill 1348.... to make English America's official language is astounding. 

   On D-Day, no less, when we honor those that sacrificed in order to secure the bedrock, character and principles of America , I can only surmise your vote reflects a loyalty to illegal aliens.  

  I don't much care where you come from. What your religion is. Whether you're black, white, or some other color...male or female......Democrat, Republican or Independent....... But I do care when you are a United States Senator representing Citizens of America ..and Vote against English as the official language of the United States Your vote reflects Betrayal. Political Surrender. Violates Your Pledge of Allegiance. Dishonors historical principle. Rejects Patriotism. Borders on traitorous action and, in my opinion, makes you unfit to serve as a United States Senator...impeachment.. Recall.......Or other appropriate action is warranted, or worse.

Four of you voting against English as America 's Official Language are or were Presidential Candidates: Senator Biden, Senator Clinton, Senator Dodd and Senator Obama. Four Senators vying to lead America, but won't, or don't, have the courage to cast a vote in favor of English as America's Official Language when 91% of American Citizens want English officially designated as our language. This is the second time in the last several months this list of Senators have disgraced themselves as 'political Hacks'.....Unworthy as Senators and certainly unqualified to serve as President of the United States. If America is as angry as I am, you will realize a backlash so stunning it will literally 'rock you out of your socks'......... And preferably totally out of the United States Senate. The entire immigration bill is a farce... Your action only confirms this really isn't about America .. it is about self-serving politics......despicable at best. It has been said: 'Never argue with an Idiot....They'll drag you down to their level and beat you to death with their experience .

My thoughts are now in Red, I just did not want to interfer with Harrys freedom of speech rights, so I left his e-mail as I recieved it.  However I did remove LIncoln statement.

 In a move that could help increase home ownership rates among minorities and low-income consumers, the Fannie Mae Corporation is easing the credit requirements on loans that it will purchase from banks and other lenders.

The action, which will begin as a pilot program involving 24 banks in 15 markets -- including the New York metropolitan region --will encourage those banks to extend home mortgages to individuals whose credit is generally not good enough to qualify for conventional loans.

Fannie Mae officials say they hope to make it a nationwide program by next spring. Fannie Mae, the nation's biggest underwriter of home mortgages, has been under increasing pressure from the Clinton Administration to expand mortgage loans among low and moderate income people and felt pressure from stock holders to maintain its phenomenal growth in profits. ''Fannie Mae has expanded home ownership for millions of families in the 1990's by reducing down payment requirements,"said Franklin D. Raines, Fannie Mae's chairman and chief executive officer (and current Obama advisor) ''Yet there remain too many borrowers whose credit is just a notch below what our underwriting has required who have been relegated to paying significantly higher mortgage rates in the so-called subprime market.''

I know this is old news, but something else to remember when you go to........  VOTE.!

Are our lawmakers out of touch with the real world? Are they just a bunch of crooks? You can see they are not focused on the will of the majority. I am really tired of living with someone else’s mistakes or greed. It would really be a good thing to make my own mistakes. I guess I have, we allowed this situation to snow ball out of control with our votes or indifference. It is time to rectify our biggest mistake, vote against anyone who voted for the bail-out.

On a different note.

Why not put CEOs on commission? That way they would get only what they are worth, no GOLDEN PARACHUTE, if the company goes bust it’s their fault why should they benefit

I only worked one job in my entire life that was not a commission position, early on I learned to work hard at a project, do the job right the first time. Teaching was the non commission job; however I tried to instill those qualities in my students.

Let’s put our lawmakers on commission, and rework their retirement. Have you looked at their retirement package? It’s really a sin, and they sure don’t earn it.

  Its time we take our government back.  We need to get all the crooked politicians out of Washington. I am personally tired of someone else telling me what’s good for me, especially since they have not been right yet.

 Why would anyone with an IQ higher than a rock sell a $120,000.00 home to someone who could only afford a $50,000.00 home? 

What happened to the rule that your house payment should not exceed ¼ of your monthly salary?  OH! I remember the Feds stepped in and told the bankers, if you want to continue borrowing money from us at lower rates, you will sell houses to people who can’t afford them.

If you notice they made a few of their friends richer and I’m sure they receive their fair share. It was really nice of them to let these people get a piece of the American dream , then RIP it out from under them and kick them out to live on the streets

Now they want to go against the majority and bail out the banking industry. They will keep trying with pork barrel projects, donations, kickbacks and just plain bribes until it passes.

            VOTE ALL INCUMBENTS OUT OF OFFICE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.                            This could also work for the Dallas school board and their over paid puppet.

Keep the rest of us in line.
