I don't know who wrote it but they should have signed it......
Some powerful words.
     
   Written by a housewife from New Jersey .  This is one ticked off
lady.
   
   
   
   "Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we? Was it or was it
not started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores on September
11, 2001?
   
   Were people from all over the world, mostly Americans, not
brutally murdered that day, in downtown Manhattan , across the Potomac
from our nation's capitol and in a field in Pennsylvania?
   
   Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a
horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn't th ey?
   
   And I'm supposed to care that a copy of the Koran was "desecrated" when an overworked American soldier kicked it or got it
wet?..Well, I don't. I don't care at all.
   
   I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and
repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11
   
   I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East
start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere possession of which is a
crime in Saudi Arabia .
   
   I'll care when these thugs tell the world they are sorry for
hacking off Nick Berg's head while Berg screamed through his gurgling
slashed throat.
   
   I'll care when the cowardly so-called "insurgents" in Iraq come
out and fight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion by
hiding in mosques
   
   I'll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in
search of nirvana care about the innocent children within range of their
suicide bombs.
   
   I'll care when the American media stops pretending that their
First Amendment liberties are somehow derived from international law
instead of the United States Constitution's Bill of Rights.
   
   In the meantime, when I hear a story about a brave marine
roughing up an Iraqi terrorist to obtain in formation, know this: I don't
care.
   
   When I see a fuzzy photo of a pile of naked Iraqi prisoners who
have been humiliated in what amounts to a college-hazing incident, rest
assured: I don't care.
   
   When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when he is
told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take it to
the bank: I don't care.
   
   W hen I hear th at a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a prayer
mat, and fed "special" food that is paid for by my tax dollars, is
complaining that his holy book is being "mishandled," you can absolutely
believe in your heart of hearts: I don't care.
   
   And oh, by the way, I've noticed that sometimes it's spelled
"Koran" and other times "Quran." Well, Jimmy Crack Corn and-you guessed
it-I don't care !!
   
  ;  If you agree with this viewpoint, pass this on to all your
E-mail friends. Sooner or later, it'll get to the people responsible for
this ridiculous behavior!
   
   If you don't agree, then by all means hit the delete button.
Should you choose the latter, then please don't complain when more
atrocities committed by radical Muslims happen here in our great
Country! And may I add:
   
   "Some people spend an ent ire lifetime wonder ing if they made a
difference in the world. But, the Marines don't have that problem" --
Ronald Reagan
   
   I have another quote that I would like to add AND......I hope
you forward all this.
   
   "If we ever forget that we're One Nation Under God, then we will
be a nation gone under." Also by.. Ronald Reagan
   
   One last thoug ht for the day:
   
   In case we find ourselves starting to believe all the
Anti-American sentiment and negativity, we should remember England 's
Prime Minister Tony Blair's words during a recent interview. When asked
by one of his Parliament members why he believes so much in America , he
said: "A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many
want in.. And how many want out."
   
   Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:
   1. Jesus Christ
   2. The American G. I.
   
   One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.
   
   YOU MIGHT WANT TO PASS THIS ON,AS MANY SEEM TO FORGET BOTH OF
THEM. AMEN!

No matter what your political views are this may be worth a read....

Fabulous Fable been around but deserves a reprise.

TRADITIONAL VERSION:

The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his

house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the

ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come

winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The grasshopper has no food or

shelter, so he dies out in the cold.

MORAL OF THE STORY: Be responsible for yourself!

MODERN VERSION:

The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be warm and well fed while others are cold and starving.  

CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. ..:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?

Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper, and everybody cries when they sing, "It's Not Easy Being Green."

Jesse Jackson stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the group singing, "We shall overcome." Jesse then has the group kneel down to pray to God for the

 grasshopper's sake.

Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry, Al Sharpton & Harry Reid exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share.

Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity and Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer!

The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the government.

Hillary gets her old law firm to represent the grasshopper in a defamation suit against the ant, and the case is tried before a panel of  federal judges that Bill Clinton appointed from a list of single-parent welfare recipients.

The ant loses the case.

The story ends as we see the grasshopper finishing up the last bits of the ant's food while the government house he is in, which just happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around him because he doesn't maintain it.

The ant has disappeared in the snow.

The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the once peaceful neighborhood.

MORAL OF THE STORY: Be careful how you vote in 2008.
