Trinity Church Members
Return To Haiti For The First
Time Since The Earthquake

O
n January 12th the world’s attention was riveted
on a 7.1 Mw earthquake that devastated Haiti.
That day and following, it is estimated that
200,000 people died.
Also that day the attention of many in our area, New
Jersey and the country was focused on a 15 member group
of short term Christian missionaries from Trinity United
Methodist Church in Hackettstown who were in Port au
Prince. For 20 hours their status was unknown, until a
phone call the

Electric Prices Deregulated in New Jersey:

Businesses and Residents Save Up To 15% Monthly
and Receive A $50 Rebate Check

T
hanks to an innovative and comprehensive initiative
from the state of New Jersey, you are now able to
choose who you buy energy from. As with the
Phone Company and Cable Television, the state of New
Jersey has deregulated electric service. While your local
utility, Jersey Central Power and Light or Public Service
Electric will continue to be responsible for maintaining the
existing network of wires, pipes and poles, other licensed
suppliers can now provide the electricity at lower rates. It’s
the same electricity only at a lower price.
The relationship with your business or household does
not change and your utility company will continue to bill
you each month and service your account.
And, if you have a service contract with
either PSE&G or JCP&L or if you are
enrolled in budget billing, nothing
changes. Except every dollar saved goes
directly into your pocket.
iConnectEnergy and Verde Energy are
offering all businesses and residences in
NJ reduced pricing which can lead to doc-
umented savings of over 15% a month on
the supply portion of your electric bill.
Additionally, a $50 check is issued to each

Heath Village Celebrates Grand Opening of New Bocce Ball Court!

O
n Monday, August 9th, Heath
Village residents celebrated at a
very well-attended Grand Opening
of its new Bocce Ball court. The new state-
of-the-art which has a marvelous view of
the mountains, has been beautifully land-
scaped with flowers and benches. It’s a per-
fect spot for playing, observing or just
socializing The Bocce court was a coopera-
tive effort between the Community’s
Residents’ Council members, the
HeathVillage grounds crew, as well as new
resident, Mario Giangola who has had much
experience with building and playing on
various courts. Giangola commented that
this was as nice, or better than some of the
tournament- style courts he’s been involved
with building! After opening remarks from
Residents’ Council members, Floyd Smith
and Joe Manzione and Heath Village
Executive Director, Patrick Brady, Giangola
and Manzione led eager resident volunteers
in an exhibition game of Bocce to officially
open the court.
Heath Village is a full-service active
retirement community located at 430
Schooley’s Mountain Road in Washington
Township, Morris County. Many activities
including golf, tennis and swimming are
offered at the Community and groups such
as opera, Mahjong and computers are very
popular among residents. For further infor-
mation, please call 908-852-4801.

Residents are shown how to play Bocce with an exhibition game at the Grand Opening cer-
emony on August 9th.

Operation Smile At J. Thomas Jewelers
By Cheryl Conway
A
smile on someone’s face does not
stop with a jewelry purchase at J.
Thomas Jewelers in Flanders and
Sparta.
The full-service jewelry company is
reaching out internationally to put that
smile on children’s faces by collecting
donations for Operation Smile - an interna-
tional medical humanitarian
organization that provides safe, recon-
structive surgery for children and young
adults born with cleft lip, cleft palate and
other facial deformities.
J. Thomas Jewelers will match every
dollar that is donated through its stores
toward Operation Smile. For $240, in 45
minutes of time, a child’s facial deformity
can be corrected through Operation Smile.
“For such a small amount to change a
kid’s life, how can you not do it?” says
Leonard Girardo, owner of J. Thomas
Jewelers. “Here is something you can send
in a check and change a kid’s life forever.”
Since July, J. Thomas Jewelers has been
collecting donations for this worldwide
children’s medical charity. Customers can
place money in containers located at either
store or mail in checks.
“Every time we collect $240, we will
match it” and send in $480. Girardo says his
goal is to help repair the smiles of 100 chil-
dren.
Operation Smile began in 1982, after Dr.
William P. Magee Jr. - a plastic surgeon-
and his wife, Kathy Magee- a nurse and
clinical social worker, learned about the
need for surgical facial repair while travel-
ing to the Philippines with other medical
volunteers to repair children's cleft lips and
cleft palates. They discovered hundreds of
children ravaged by deformities and were
forced to turn away the majority of those
who sought help.
Through the help of thousands of dedi-
cated medical volunteers, advocates and
donors, Operation Smile was established to
provide free surgeries to repair these facial
deformities for children around the world.
According to operationsmile.org, “more
than 200,000 children are born with a
severe cleft condition each year — often
unable to eat, speak, socialize or smile. In
some places these children are shunned and
rejected. And in too many cases, their par-
ents can't afford to give them the surgeries
they need to live a normal life.”
Girardo says he was looking for a way
to give back, and with Operation Smile, “in
such a short time, it can change a kid’s
life…appearance, self-esteem. When they

next day brought the assurance that they
were alive, and seeking a way to return to
Hackettstown.
Recently, for the first time since the
quake, two Trinity members returned to
Port au Prince. Frank Procaccini, who was
in the quake in January and his 23 year old
son Jesse, spent 6 days in June in and
around the capital. Both are veteran Haiti
travelers, and last Christmas they chose to
go to Port au Prince for Christmas Day, tak-
ing gifts to the children of Our Father’s
House orphanage, one of several ministry
partners that Trinity Church works with in
Haiti.
Their recent trip was to take personal
encouragement and support to the many
Haitian friends and ministries that they and
Trinity work with. It was also somewhat of
a reconnaissance trip, as the church is plan-
ning how best to help when their next mis-
sion team returns, probably in January.
Since the earthquake, the church and com-
munity have raised about $40,000 for relief
work in the western Hemisphere’s poorest
country.
Upon his return Frank Procaccini com-
mented that he was so glad to return to
Haiti. “We had to leave so abruptly in
January and I needed to go back and check hope and pray that people around the world ticipate in helping them rebuild their lives.”

Avon Walk for Breast Cancer: A Personal Experience!
by Shannon Nash
E
very 3 minutes, someone is diagnosed with breast
cancer in the US. Every 13 minutes, someone dies
from breast cancer in the US. 1 in 8 women will get
breast cancer in their lifetime. Look around you, how many
women are in your life; mothers, daughters, sisters, wives,
nieces, friends, co-workers? How many of them will get
breast cancer? As a female, it' s a scary thought and I want-
ed to do something about it. Last year, while driving to
work, I heard about the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer
(AWBC) taking place in New York City. It's a 2 day, 39.3
mile walk that raises money for breast cancer. That night, I
went online and read up about the walk and requested infor-
mation. I contacted a bunch of women in my life asking for
anyone who would like to participate in the walk with me.
I received a few maybes and by the spring, I was signed up
on my own. This was something I wanted to do, whether on
my own with a group. I was determined if I was going to
do the walk, I was going to do the whole 39.3 miles of it.
In order to walk, you have to raise $1800. I spent my sum-
mer and fall training for the walk and fundraising for it,
including having bake sales with the proceeds going to the
walk, emailing and just talking to people about it. By
October, I was able to raise $2,400 and the entire New York
AWBC team raised about $10M. The money raised for the
walk not only goes to research, but it also goes towards
testing and treatment for those who can not afford it and
some of it is donated locally during the event.
Tell Them You Saw It In The Hackettstown This Month • August 2010 • Page 9
On the day of the walk, I drove myself into NY, know-
ing only 1 couple that would be participating in the walk,
one walking, one on the crew. I ended up becoming an
unofficial member of their team and made some great
friends during the walk. The walk consists of 26.2 miles on
Saturday, camping overnight (or a hotel for those who pre-
fer not to camp), 13.1 miles on Sunday and an incredible
closing ceremony that honors all those impacted by breast
cancer! For those who want to walk, but can't do the full
26.2 miles on Saturday, you can do the first 13.1 miles on
Saturday and the 13.1 miles on Sunday. Last year, there
were 4,000 to 5,000 walkers signed up for the NY event,
which consisted of men and women of all ages. Some were
survivors, some were walking for survivors, and others
were walking for loved ones that were lost to breast cancer.
It was such an incredible experience that I signed up for the
2010 walk during the closing ceremony of the 2009 walk.
Donating to this walk is just one of many ways to be sup-
portive. This walk is a large event and requires a lot of time
and people to make it happen. There are a lot of wonderful
volunteers who spend the weekend directing traffic, setting
up and breaking down rest stops and camp, helping out the
Shannon Nash
walkers and cheering everyone on. These folks are just as
important as the walkers because without all the volunteers, I have family members on both sides and friends that
this event would not happen. Another way to support this have survived breast cancer and I have lost some family
cause is to train with someone. I do a lot of training on my members to breast cancer. I also have a friend that is
own, but I also have friends, family, co-workers and even aggressively fighting breast cancer. "In it to end it" is the
neighbors walk with me to keep me going. continued on page 11

The PAL : Finding Pets Good Homes
by Elsie Walker
R
oaming the floor, Sam the cat is a
very important resident of Heath
Village, a nursing home in
Hackettstown. Recently adopted by the
home, he brings joy to both the staff and
those residents that need some furry sun-
shine. Sam can thank, in part, the Pet
Adoption League, for his new lease on life.
Sam is not alone, the Pet Adoption
League, Hackettstown, has helped many
homeless cats…and dogs….find good
homes. For example, PAL volunteer
Debbie McGrath shared the story of Keely:
“…Keely, an Alaskan Huskie, came to
us last spring through animal control. She
had been spotted for months as a stray in the
area, and it took a long time before they
could get her to safety at the pound. When
she came in she was extremely thin, scared
and unapproachable, and it took a few
months to gain her trust to where we could
get her out on a leash and interact with her
outside of her run. Through a website
search, a family in the Adirondacks saw her
on our site and it was love at first sight!
After much back and forth correspondence
and phone calls with one of our dedicated
volunteers, we drove Keely to her new
home last fall, and it was the perfect match
for her. Keely is now loving life in the
woods with her new family, which includes
two siblings, Jackson and Lady! We love
getting updates and pictures -- they bring
me such joy! “
Currently, the PAL has both dogs and
cats available for adoption.
The cats can be seen at the Adoption
Center at the Mt Olive PetSmart with adop-
tions held there every Saturday from 12-
3pm. Adoptable cats are tested for disease,
treated for worms, vaccinated, and if old
enough, given a rabies shot. Also, those old
enough are "fixed".( If at adoption day the
cat is too young to be fixed, the new family
gets a certificate to have the spay/neuter
done at no cost to them.)
“We have our dog adoptions either at
Hackettstown Pet Supply, run and owned by
Jim who is a wonderful supporter of the pet
adoption league, or at Pet Valu in
Mansfield. That location is managed by Sue
who adores when PAL has our dogs at her
location. The dog adoption locations are on
our website, WWW.PALPETS.ORG. On
the calendar, the time of the adoptions are
11am -2 pm on Saturdays. PAL has had peo-
ple make arrangements to meet a dog of
their liking by appointment,” said PAL pres-
ident, Kathy Subol

A
s a third-generation owner of The
Polite Plumber for the past 25 years,

price.
Established in 1948, Polite Plumber is a
comprehensive residential plumbing servic-
es company. Technicians are available 24

Passed down by his grandfather and
father, the family business has been enjoy-
able to Hughes. He appreciates the interac-

others.
“I just love the business,” says Hughes, a
licensed-master plumber in NJ and a
licensed pump installer. “I see interaction
with the customers and the opportunity to
provide a need. I’m following in my father’s
footsteps.”
The company was established as
Hughes’ Plumbing in 1948 by Hughes’
grandparents, Robert and Rose Hughes. It
was then passed down to Hughes’ parents,
David and Elizabeth. Hughes and his wife,
Kathy, took it over in 1985 when his parents
retired.
Hughes changed the name seven years
ago to Polite Plumber based on the com-

Thomas Edison and His Phonograph
by Michele Guttenberger
T
homas Edison devel-
oped the phonograph
in 1877. By today’s
standards it was a very sim-
ple machine. It was manu-
ally powered by a hand
crank that rotated a metal
cylinder with tin foil
wrapped around it. It had
two diaphragms and needle
units, one for recording, and
one for playback.
Recordings were performed
by speaking into a mouth-
piece. Sound vibrations
were traced by a recording
needle producing vertical
hill and dale groove patterns
onto the record cylinder.
Edison’s quest to develop a
machine to transcribe tele-
graphic messages through
indentations on paper tape,
and then transmitted over
the telegraph repeatedly led
to the phonograph player.
His voice to be the first
voice ever recorded was
Edison reciting the intro
words to “Mary Had a Little
Lamb”.
On February 19, 1878
patent (#200,521) for the
phonograph was issued. It
was a highly original inven-
tion. The only other similar
invention was in a paper by
French scientist Charles
Cros, written on April 18,
1877. However, Cros's
work was only a theory, and
he did not produce a work-
ing model of it.
Edison had fun with his
new invention and recorded
some instructions for his
business staff at Scientific
American in New York City.
He presented the phono-
graph on December 22,
1877. He placed his little
machine on an office desk,
turned a crank, and the
machine gave its recorded
message. How was every-
one’s health today, it vainly
asked how they liked the
phonograph, informed the
staff that it (the phono-
graph) was felling very well
too, and bid everyone a cor-
dial good night." This
invention was the big busi-
ness news event of the day later be sent over the tele-

developed as a result of

telegraph and the telephone.

Agnoli to Compete for World Natural Strongman Federation’s American Cup Title

his year, Rob Agnoli won the Battle
at the Barn Strongman lightweight
championship. In 2009, he won the
Snap Strongman lightweight championship
and the Hudson Valley Strongman show-
down lightweight title.
On August 28, he will head to Cleveland,
Ohio to participate in the World Natural
Strongman Federation’s American Cup and
is hoping to gain a spot on Team USA to
compete in the Natural World
Championships in Hungary next year.
But, hold on for a second, this is not just
an article listing all of the championships,
through hard work and dedication that
Agnoli has acquired.
While a story on Agnoli’s journey from
his start in weight lifting after graduating
from Newton High School in 1995 and
finally finding his footing in the competitive
Strongman world would be an interesting
read, what we’re focusing in on here is his
new venture-NJ Muscle, LLC.
The current resident of Hackettstown
trains athletes from multiple sports to
improve themselves in a variety of ways.
Though he primarily trains athletes, Agnoli
has clients who are not competitive athletes.

Agnoli, who has a Master’s Degree in

intent to make those whom he trains

Smarter After-School Snacking
C
hips and a soft drink may be a con-
venient after school snack, but it
doesn’t do the body any good.
Believe it or not, there are snack options
that not only do the body – and the brain –
some good, but they taste good, too.
Omega-3s are fats essential to brain
development and continued brain health,
vision, prevention of cardiovascular dis-
ease, and normal growth and development
throughout childhood. However, they are
not produced in the body, nor are they found
in many foods. Fatty fish are an excellent
source off omega-3s, but fatty fish are not
on most kids’ after school snack menus.
However, there are other sources of omega-
3s, such as Omega-3 Milk from Organic
Valley.
"Adding milk high in omega-3s to our
daily diet is a simple, practical way to pro-
mote life-long health, and it is especially
important for families with young children.
Omega-3s are essential building blocks for
infants and children as they grow and their
brains develop," said Dr. Charles Benbrook,
chief scientist of The Organic Center.
With Omega-3 milk, Organic Valley
complements its pasture-based organic
milk—which already contains elevated lev-
els of the naturally-occurring ALA Omega-
3—with DHA and EPA, two other Omega-
3 fatty acids extracted from sustainably-
sourced fish oil. Each glass delivers com-
plete Omega-3 nutrition.
For a mouth-pleasing, brain-boosting
after school snack, try serving up some of
this fun String Cheese “Slaw” with a tall
glass of Omega-3 milk. It may just turn
chips into a snack of the past.

even more pronounced.
Creating a spice rub is not difficult. In
fact, it can be quite enjoyable experiment-
ing with different flavor combinations to
find a flavor profile you enjoy the most.
Here are some tips to achieve a good spice
rub.
* Most rubs feature salt as one of the
ingredients. Use sea salt or Kosher salt in
the mix instead of iodized table salt for a
better flavor.
* Buy whole spices and herbs and
chop/grind them yourself for the freshest
flavor. If using herbs, be sure they are
dried herbs.
* Be sure to use new spices. Old spices
tend to lose their flavor and won't be as
impressive in the rub.
* Slightly heating the rub mix will
make the flavor even more pronounced.
* Store your rub mix sealed tightly in a
jar or plastic container. Place in a cool,
dark place.
* Use the rub within 2 months for best
flavor.
Now that you know how to create your
rub, try this recipe to get started.
Sweet and Spicy Barbecue Rub
1/2 cup brown sugar
3 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons Kosher salt
3 tablespoons fresh, cracked pepper
2 tablespoons paprika
1 tablespoon cayenne
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Apply the rub liberally to the meat and rub
in thoroughly on both sides. Cook on indi-
rect heat. This is also a good rub recipe for
using with a smoker.

leventh Hour Rescue is holding their
6th annual fall festival called:
Puptoberfest. This year’s event is on
Saturday, 9/25/10, from 11:00am to
5:00pm. The event will be held at the
Craigmeur Picnic Grounds, 1175 Green
Pond Rd., Newfoundland, NJ, which is near
Rockaway, NJ. We anticipate this year’s
Phonograph...

vibrations made indentations in the paper.
Edison later changed the paper to a metal
cylinder with tin foil wrapped around it. The
machine had two diaphragm-and-needle
units, one for recording, and one for play-
back. When one would speak into a mouth-
piece, the sound vibrations would be indent-
ed onto the cylinder by the recording needle
in a vertical (or hill and dale) groove pat-
tern. Edison gave a sketch of the machine to
his mechanic, John Kreusi, to build, which
Kreusi supposedly did within 30 hours.
Edison immediately tested the machine by
speaking the nursery rhyme into the mouth-
piece, "Mary had a little lamb." To his
amazement, the machine played his words
back to him.
Although it was later stated that the date
for this event was on August 12, 1877, some
historians believe that it probably happened
several months later, since Edison did not
file for a patent until December 24, 1877.
Also, the diary of one of Edison's aides,
Charles Batchelor, seems to confirm that the
phonograph was not constructed until
December 4, and finished two days later.
The patent (#200,521) on the phonograph
was issued on February 19, 1878. The
invention was highly original. The only
other recorded evidence of such an inven-
tion was in a paper by French scientist

There were some differences, however,
between the two men's ideas, and Cros's
work remained only a theory, since he did
not produce a working model of it.
Original Edison Tin Foil Phonograph.

Interior, National Park Service, Edison
National Historic Site.
Edison took his new invention to the
offices of Scientific American in New York
City and showed it to staff there. As the
December 22, 1877, issue reported, "Mr.
Thomas A. Edison recently came into this
office, placed a little machine on our desk,
turned a crank, and the machine inquired as
to our health, asked how we liked the
phonograph, informed us that it was very
well, and bid us a cordial good night."
Interest was great, and the invention was
reported in several New York newspapers,
and later in other American newspapers and
magazines.
The Edison Speaking Phonograph
Company was established on January 24,
1878, to exploit the new machine by
exhibiting it. Edison received $10,000 for
the manufacturing and sales rights and 20%
of the profits. As a novelty, the machine was
an instant success, but was difficult to oper-
ate except by experts, and the tin foil would
last for only a few playings.

One Solution to Help Your Economic Crisis:
Collect Monies Owed to You
A
s a result of the financial hardships
associated with the state of today’s
economy, the number of people
unable to make payments for their debts
increases daily. Unfortunately, the individ-
uals who provide the services and goods to
those people are left with no choice but to
compel payments through the court system.
It must first be determined who will be
named as the defendant, specifically who is
legally responsible for the debt. The prop-
er name of the business or individual must
be utilized in order for the collection of
monies to be successful.
The next step is to choose the correct
court for the filing of the complaint. New
Jersey Court Rule 6:1-2 provides that a
complaint should be filed in the New Jersey
Superior Court, Law Division, Special Civil
Part if the amount in controversy is
$15,000.00 or less, and in the Small Claims
Part if the amount is $3,000.00 or less. If
the amount in controversy exceeds
$15,000.00, the complaint should be filed in
the New Jersey Superior Court, Law
Division. A matter in the Law Division is a
more complicated process, and involves
numerous steps not set forth here. Forms
are available through the court system.
Once a complaint is filed in the Special
Civil Part, the court officer will serve the
defendant with the complaint. If the defen-
dant files an answer with the court, a trial
date will be scheduled. If the defendant
does not file an answer by a certain date or
fails to appear for the trial, default will be

entered. The court will require the submis-
sion of a certification of the amount due and
a request to have a judgment entered
against the defendant in favor of the indi-
vidual seeking payment.
In this type of matter, a judgment is
essentially a court order directing the defen-
dant to pay the individual who filed the
complaint the sum due to them, with inter-
est. The judgment can be registered with
the State of New Jersey, and will be a lien
against any real property that the defendant
owns. A defendant will be unable to sell the
real property without first paying off the
judgment.
When a judgment is obtained, there are
numerous avenues of collection procedures.
Steps can be taken to obtain a writ, or order
for the sheriff, to garnish the defendant’s
wages or freeze any known bank accounts
to obtain payment for the debt due. The
sheriff can also secure a defendant’s goods
or chattels, such as vehicles, equipment or
personal property, and sell the same to sat-
isfy the debt due.
Every individual’s matter is unique. You
should seek the advice of a professional to
determine the appropriate method to protect
your interests and secure the monies owed
to you.

Summer 2010 Brings Jubilee Celebrations of Our Lake Area Beach Coves
by Michele Guttenberger Besides travelers from Manhattan, Whitlock’s 25 cent

T
his summer will be a hallmark summer for many of
our lake communities in the Skylands Region. Over
a hundred years ago the NJ North West Lake Region
was “The” North East travel destination of our country.
While many out west joined in community barn raising, we
were here building docks, boathouses, cabanas, and gaze-
bos overlooking our scenic lake coves. It was also a time
of developing societies and social clubs that brought in well
heeled travelers looking for a majestic escape from the hus-
tle and bustle of the city but close in distance to spend many
summer weekends together with friends and family. In
1908 there was trolley service from Dover to Lake
Hopatcong and tracks that extended to the new bridge pro-
viding passenger stops at Mt Arlington Blvd and the Beach
of Bertrand Island. Convenient transit prompted the con-
struction of the LHYC -Lake Hopatcong Yacht Club club-
house in 1910. A century later on July 10, 2010, LHYC
members celebrated their club’s Centennial Anniversary.
In 1905 T.C. Whitlock wrote in this travel guide “Lake
Hopatcong Illustrated” the following passages:
Magnificent in its scenic grandeur, with its majestic
mountains rising proudly above its placid water, broken
here and there by picturesque islands, Lake Hopatcong
spreads itself among the hills of New Jersey like a diamond
dropped from the sky; … thousands gather to enjoy its
matchless splendor. Without a doubt, Lake Hopatcong is
the most popular mountain resort in New Jersey and is sur-
passed by none anywhere in the country.
travel guide included information on rail connections for
those traveling from Trenton or Philadelphia. Whitlock
wrote: “Many people of the United States spend time and
money in going to foreign countries for the benefit of their
health, totally ignorant of the benefits of the dry, bracing
atmosphere and the pure drinking water found at Lake
Hopatcong …” Travelers would follow heed to his advice
with the outbreak of World War I in August 1914. This
increased Lake Hopatcong's summer tourism. Summer
journeys to Europe stopped for travelers fearful of Atlantic
ship attacks.
The NJ Lakeland Region gradually declined in popular-
ity as the ideal resort location when the automobile made
travelers more mobile to venture to other lake and coastal was a home community with deeded beach property for its
beaches. However, the personal automobile eventually members. Members in professional contracting business-

Issues, Issues and More Issues

The greatest President in our history is
feeling our pain. He said he could relate to
the plight of Americans striving in the
struggling economy to pay bills while sav-
ing for their kids' education. He also said
that he is "not that far removed from what
most Americans are going through".
So I guess I feel better now. Obama is
going through some rough times like mil-
lion of Americans.
I know many people who are and have
been out of work. Struggling to pay the
mortgage and just trying to survive.
This guy has to be kidding me. Those
quotes are from a stump speech he gave
back on July 23rd.
Things must have really improved for
him quickly. If you were wondering where
the stimulus money went I think I found out
where some went. It went to the Obama’s.
I found this piece which really sums it
up. [Sacrifice] was a key theme in President
Obama's inaugural address to the nation ...
But while most of the country is pinching
pennies and downsizing summer sojourns--
or forgoing them altogether--the Obama’s
don't seem to be heeding their own advice
... To be clear, what the Obama’s do with
their money is one thing; what they do with
ours is another. Transporting and housing
the estimated 70 Secret Service agents who
will flank the “material girl” will cost the
taxpayers a pretty penny. I don't begrudge
anyone rest and relaxation when they work
hard. We all need downtime--the First
Family included. It's the extravagance of
Michelle Obama's trip and glitzy destina-
tion contrasted with President Obama's
demonization of the rich that smacks of
hypocrisy.
Does anyone recall when Bush won his
second term and the economy was in trou-
ble he scaled down the inauguration party
because it would not be right to have this
huge event when Americans were suffer-
ing? I guess the Obama’s feel it will help
the American people to see his family and
friends traveling the globe. Granted it is his
money to spend but we have to pay for the
security and the travel to get them there.
Would they pay for me to travel to go on
vacation? Next stop for the President,
Martha’s Vineyard!
Arizona. What is happening here? The
federal government does nothing to stop the
illegal’s from crossing the border and free
loading on taxpayer dollars. Arizona just
takes the federal law that is in place but is
not being enforced and makes it there own.
So what does the White House do? Sue the
state to stop the law from taking effect.
Why? One can only feel it is a political
move for the November election.
The judge kept most of the law in tact
but the important part that would allow
police if stopping a person for a violation to
ask for poof of citizenship. Maybe it’s just
me but is there something wrong with that?
So some liberal judge rules against the
majority of what people of Arizona wanted
and said no.
This is just another example of the court
system not working. Meanwhile when this
ruling was overturned, we have Mexicans
(illegal at that) dancing in the streets wav-
ing the Mexican flag, while desecrating the
American flag! Another slap in the face the
America….wake up! When will this lunacy
end?
Let’s go to NY. A mosque being build a
few blocks front the attack site on 911. Yes
everyone has a right in this country to prac-
tice and criticize any religion. Well, almost
any religion. Christianity you can blast and
say what you want and Christians can’t get
upset because of freedom of speech. But
criticize the Muslim religion and they
threaten to kill you as they did with the
Danish paper that published a parody of
Mohammad.
How can NYC allow this Mosque to be
built? I do not care about freedoms or rights
in this case. It is about what is right. This is
not. Bloomberg is running around defend-
ing this telling us to be tolerant of other reli-
gions. Tolerant? That is what got us in trou-
ble and will destroy this country and it val-
ues.
Because we are so afraid to offend any
other nationality that comes here it will ulti-
mately destroy our way of life. Our culture
and values are being replaced by other cul-
tures and their values.
Even the wars we fight are politically
correct and we cannot win them. In
Afghanistan if we were to Nuke some of the
mountains we can end the war quickly. But
we are too concerned what others will think
of us. So we allow these people to control
us and attack us over and over.
There is nothing wrong with being the
superpower we once were. When countries
feared us and worried that our superior mil-
itary would destroy them. Now our great
fearless leader says let’s talk. We will talk
with the terrorists and explain to them that
we are peaceful and welcome them here.
They should not welcome here unless
they our customs. As we have to respect
their culture when in their country they
should also respect ours when here I
America.
This Mosque is a slap in the face to all
Americans. It should not be allowed and
they need to be investigated as to where the
money is coming from. Odds are pretty
good that it will be found by some terrorist
organization and used as a recruiting tool
for radicals to end the American way of life.
The person who is heading the effort to
build the Mosque, Feisal Abdu Rauf has
emerged as a controversial figure because
of his refusal to acknowledge Hamas as a
terrorist organization, which is how the U.S.
government classifies the group. The imam
told "60 Minutes" in 2001 that U.S. foreign
policy could be considered an "accessory"
to the 9/11 attacks, though he said in the
same interview, "Fanaticism and terrorism
have no place in Islam."
Then to add insult to injury The State
Department confirmed Tuesday that the
administration is sponsoring Feisal Abdul
Rauf's trip to Qatar, Bahrain and the United
Arab Emirates, which is described as part of
a program to send Muslims abroad to edu-
cate other countries about the role of reli-
gion in the United States.
Rauf and his partners are preparing to
build a $100 million Islamic center and
mosque near Ground Zero, the site of the
Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks that left nearly
3,000 dead.
That means we are paying for this trip as
taxpayers.When will this all end.
