Tax Dependents

Wish I could claim this as my own...but I saw it on-line. I'm not sure who created it...but I thought I'd share:


The IRS sent my tax return back...AGAIN!
I guess it was because of my response to the question: "List all dependents."
I replied: "12 million illegal immigrants, 3 million crack heads, 42 million unemployed people on food stamps, 2 million people in over 243prisons, and 535 fools in the U.S. House and Senate."
Apparently this was NOT an acceptable answer!


Oh how true! Of course, I would add Obama and his family - including the grandmother. After all, my tax money pays for his security when he and his family walk to the Corcoran Gallery of Art in DC (as they did on January 29, 2012). In fact, you and I are paying for his vacations when we cannot even afford one ourselves.

So, IRS...how 'bout  dem dependents?

The Election is Coming...RANT

Rant of the Day:

I am so sick of these political ads and all of this projection crap. Seriously. Put the front runner names in a hat (including Obama) and shake it up. Then pick one. They are all the same.

Sadly, I don't like any of the front runners. Santorum looks good to me. I liked Cain. And now it appears that the GOP nomination will be between Romney and Gingrich. Sigh.

Here's a question for you: Why do we have so many different dates for these caucuses/primaries? Let's just have them all on the same day. Why should my vote (which will be cast in April) be of less value than those in Iowa?

I think it sucks! Have the nation vote on the same day and let the chips fall where they may. We do it for the General Election.

I can't turn on any news channel without hearing the latest projections about this state's winner or that state's winner. Blah. Blah. Please...just shut up. The results will speak for themselves.

Polls? Oh whatever. You can make a poll slant any way that you want. I've never been contacted about my political opinion and I've been voting since I was eligible. Besides that, who is to say that these people being polled are even being truthful.

We talk about how in America, ANYBODY can become President. Not true. You have to have a LOT of money to run for President - whether your own or the backing of someone else's. That means whoever is elected certainly won't have the same issues I and others less financially-fortunate have. I don't begrudge others who have wealth. I certainly don't buy into this whole communist/socialist redistribution crap. If it's yours, keep it.

However, it's hard for someone elected into office to understand my dilemma of skipping doctor appointments to save on co-pays so that groceries can be bought. How about those who skip medications because of the cost?

I was in the grocery store today and couldn't believe the prices of things. Is it any wonder that people resort to eating cat food? It's sad.

So...today's rant ends with me still sick of this political season that will eventually end in the Fall with me choosing the lesser of two evils once again. Let me re-phrase that. It will end with me voting for whoever is running against Obama.

I'd enter the Race...but the funds just aren't there. I certainly couldn't do a worse job...

Welcome to 2012!

Okay. New year. Like untouched snow. You know the kind...you see a large patch of snow (or sand if you live in warmer climates) that is smooth and never trod upon. You have the urge to make footprints in it. Well that's 2012. We are ten days in and there are 356 days left to walk upon since this is a Leap Year.

As I get older (I swear I am only... er.. 29...uhmm), it sure seems like time goes faster. (I'm sticking with the 29, folks!) When I do stop to catch my breath (which usually occurs after walking up steps, walking to the fridge, walking to the buffet line, and similar strenuous activities), I find that it seems like it was just yesterday that I got my set of car keys.

Wait...that WAS yesterday. I lost my originals somewhere in a field (don't ask) and had to have copies made from my spare set.

Seriously, though, some aspects of time seem to have flown by for me. My kids are grown now. My friends are getting old. Cold, damp weather and my bones no longer get along. In fact, it is sad for me to realize that my mind still thinks I am a young, spry, slender woman who can dance the night away. Of course, my body definitely knows I'm not.

In other aspects, time seems to have stopped completely. After all, has it ONLY been 3 years since Obama took office?

I hope that2012 brings my readers health, laughter, contentment, and fun. Now get busy building that snowman or sandcastle in the un-trampled area of life!

God bless...

Derailed for good?

Okay. No matter what you think of Herman Cain...it seems that his contention for the Presidency may be coming to an end. According to a report on FNC, Cain has now slipped 11 points in the polls - leaving Romney and Gingrich tied for first.

I have liked Cain from his very first debate appearance. What saddens me is that, for many, the alleged sexual harassment has caused doubt about Cain's trustworthiness.

What do I think?

I think that it's awfully convenient that as soon as Cain soars in the polls, "victims" long since vanished into the woodwork suddenly start appearing. Do I believe the allegations? Not really...however, I wasn't there. The timing of the "coming forth" of these women leaves it quite suspect in my mind.

Many pundits were talking about a Cain vs. Obama showdown for the 2012 election. Hmmm. Now suddenly that most likely won't happen. Did Obama's camp have anything to do with this? (Uh oh...guess I'm now gonna get reported to AttackWatch...LOL)

With a Cain-Obama contest, where ever would Obama be able to insert race?

Just because I didn't vote for Obama in 2008 doesn't make me a racist. However, if you DID vote for Obama because he is "black," then you ARE a racist.

Why does the Left fear Cain?

Perhaps it's his no nonsense approach to solving our debt crisis. Having extensive experience in the business world, his way of creating solutions comes from a different perspective than career politicians. That scares people. To think that Cain, if elected, would change things from the status quo makes people nervous. I understand that people don't like change (and I don't mean Obama's kind)...but if we continue down the path we are on, there will be no United States of America left.

I have been hoping that Cain's campaign would recover from the supposed scandal, but I am not sure that it will. I still support Cain. It just goes to show you that it is easier to tear down a reputation than to repair one.

I am praying for you, Cain, as well as the rest of the candidates. (Yes, even Obama.) There are several that I don't feel I can support should Cain no longer be a viable candidate...but I do know we don't need Obama for a 2nd term.

In my opinion, we didn't need him for the first.

Obama's destruction of the USA

It's not your momma's USA anymore. It seems like our society has been on the decline for several generations. All of the "free love" junk of the 70s has really had a negative impact. Of course, I think most of those are now in the streets of our major cities as part of the Occupy Wall Street movement. (People, GO HOME! You look stupid!)

It is amazing to the see the parallels between the prophecies of the book of Revelation (last chapter of the Bible) and the events unfolding before our eyes. When I hear about the increase of earthquakes and other so-called "natural" disasters, I can't help but believe that the Rapture is near, To that end, I think that Obama's Presidency (whether legitimate or not) figures greatly into the END TIMES.

In my opinion, Obama is Muslim. That is in opposition to Christianity. I don't care that he calls himself a "Christian." I can call myself a horse, but that doesn't make it so. Since according to Islam, anyone who is not Muslim is considered an "infidel," why would a Muslim want to hold the highest political office in the land of an infidel nation?

To destroy it from the inside out...

Our monetary system is collapsing. Our economy is in shambles. Our moral base has all but been forgotten. Just like Rome (from which many of our laws are adopted), the USA is going to collapse from within.

Oh...but wait. It isn't even just our country. There's Greece, Spain, Ireland...the list goes on. The Middle East? I won't bother naming those countries since they change governments faster than I can type. Am I concerned?

Sure. However, I keep reminding myself (sometimes more than daily) that GOD is IN CONTROL. While I recognize that His Plan never included all of this...He has allowed it since mankind broke that intimate relationship with Him back in the Garden of Eden.

I think Obama and with George Soros (look him up) are behind the destruction of America. If Obama, through his policies and skirting around Congress, can ruin us, then so much the better for the Muslim world.

Sadly, many people are too focused upon themselves (stemming from the "Me Generation") to even notice or care. Sure...they know that prices are up, investment profits are down, and jobs are limited, but they don't even realize what a political monster was put in office. I have even seen "Obama 2012" stickers on cars already!

Huh? Are you kidding me? Hasn't enough damage been done? Our debt is so great that I am too tired to even type that many zeroes! Spend-spend-spend seems to be the goal of Obama...and Congress. In my opinion, we need to vote 'em all out and start fresh. Career politicians need to leave.

All of this turmoil in the US and the world is setting up the stage nicely for the Antichrist is assume power. If money (from all countries) is no longer worth the paper it is printed upon, then the world will be looking for solutions. Enter the Antichrist. As a Pre-Trib Believer (it's the only Bibically-based belief versus a Mid-Trib or Post-Trib belief), I'm gonna be raptured outta this world before the Antichrist rises to power. (That right there discounts theories of some that Obama is the Antichrist - although I believe he IS an antichrist just not THE Antichrist.)

I am watching Israel. Despite Obama's continued rejection of Israel (our ally in the Middle East), I STAND WITH ISRAEL. Whether you like it or not, the Jews are God's Chosen people. Period. No. I'm not Jewish (religion or race); however, I AM part of God's Chosen because I am saved by the grace of God's mercy through the blood of His Son, Jesus.

So, Obama...don't mess with the Power of God. I know how the story ends.

Obama's passport issue

In June 1981, Obama arrived  in NY with little funds. However, a month later, he had the funds to take an around-the-world trip - visiting Jakarta and Karachi. I'm wondering what passport he offered when he passed through Customs and Immigration. Call me a "birther" or whatever you want. Obama is the President and I don't think that any evidence found to support he was or wasn't born in the USA will make any difference. The difference will be made in November 2012 when he vote him out of office.

Alas, I digress. Okay...here are some questions (taken from an email I read and my own research):

Q: Did Obama travel to Pakistan in 1981 at age 20?
A: Yes, by his own admission.

Q: What passport did he use?
A: There are ONLY 3 possibilities: a US passport, a British passport, or an Indonesian passport.

Q: Is it possible that Obama traveled with a US passport in 1981?
A: No.  In 1981, Pakistan was on the US State Dept.'s "No Travel" list.

Hence, when Obama went to Pakistan in 1981, he was traveling with either a British passport or an Indonesian passport. What can be concluded from this? Well...if Obama was traveling with a British passport, that would provide evidence that he was born in Kenya on August 4, 1961 - rather than Hawaii (as Obama claims). If he was traveling with an Indonesian passport, that would provide evidence that Obama had relinquished whatever previous citizenship he held (British or American) prior to being adopted by his Indonesian stepfather in 1967.

Despite the truth of the matter...it makes me wonder: How did Obama manage to become a "natural born" American citizen between 1981 and 2008?
