12/18/2013 4:50:03 PM TWO STATEMENTS TO CONSIDER : IRONY 1 “We are told NOT to judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics." BUT on the other hand……. "We are also encouraged to judge ALL Gun Owners by the actions of a few lunatics." How is that supposed to work.....?????? IRONY 2. The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing this year the greatest amount of free Meals and Food Stamps ever, to 47 million people as of the most recent figures available in 2013. Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us "Please Do Not Feed the Animals." Their stated reason for the policy is because "The animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves." THUS ENDS TODAY'S LESSON ON IRONY |

Would someone please remind me again how many of today's Hollywood elite put their careers on hold to enlist ? The only one who even comes close was Pat Tillman, who turned down a contract offer of $3.6 million over three years from the Arizona Cardinals to enlist in the US Army after September 11, 2001, and serve as a Ranger in Afghanistan, where he died in 2004. But rather than being lauded for his choice and his decision to put his country before his career, he was mocked and derided by many of his peers and the Left. This is not the America today that it was seventy years ago. Ponder this: What made theses guys the "Greatest Generation" and where did they get their values? HUH, LOOK WHAT WE HAVE IN HOLLYWOOD TODAY. ITS ENOUGH TO MAKE ONE PUKE . MAYBE SEAN PENN SHOULD SEE THIS. OR MAYBE HARVEY WEINSTEIN OR MICHAEL MOORE. |

5/23/2014 4:21:44 PM It's amazing the lies that were told so that Obama could win his 2nd term. So Obama wins like nothing happened and silences anyone that saw what happened. These radicals are barbarians. Somebody needs to pay for this slaughter. It is really sickening and the cover-up continues. REMEMBER THAT THERE ARE TWENTY SURVIVORS WHO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. SOONER OR LATER THEY WILL SPEAK. Written by a cousin of Ambassador Stevens, a US Navy Chaplain, Senior Pastor Ret'd THIS IS A TRUE STORY...and a dirty one! Be sure to read at least to the bold highlighted area - and then pass it on. You need to read this true account of what happened to our Ambassador Stevens and the other 3 who died. If this doesn't make you mad.........Cynthia Lee Myers wanted to share the truth of what happened over in Libya, you will not find this in the media yet but it airs tonight on FNC.....please read.... "Here is my story. A week out the Embassy in Tripoli began receiving multiple tips about an Al-Qaeda cell in the area planning an attack on 9/11 in response to the killing of Bin Laden. For the next several days, the state department and WH were asked for a security force and were denied at least six times. Ambassador Stevens and his team were given the all clear that the Consulate in Benghazi was safe and there was no need for a security force other than his 3 personal guards. (One being my cousin and a few Libyans who were not armed.) Then the attack and murders occurred. Immediately the WH claimed it was a protest gone bad over a you-tube video. Obama made a quick speech in the Rose Garden on Sept.12before catching a plane to Vegas to campaign. He made a generic statement at the end of his speech after placing the blame on an overheated protest over the video. He said "No act of terror will shake the resolve of America. Later that day and over the next 2 days, the liberal media began saying Ambassador Stevens and the other 3 men died of smoke inhalation. This was not the case. Out of respect for my cousin, I'm not going to be specific about his murder. However Ambassador Stevens was brutally murdered. His genitals were cut off, he was sodomized and beaten and cut and stabbed and burned. He was drug thru the streets and left for dead. This is eyewitness testimony of a local Dr. who found the Ambassador in a ditch and tried to save his life. He had no idea who he was. The other 3 men, including my cousin, met similar fates. And deaths due to smoke inhalation is a 100% fabricated LIE. The next week I drove my aunt and Uncle and 2 others to DC to receive his body. We met with Hillary, Panetta, and Susan Rice. ALL of whom apologized and said it was a protest gone bad over a video and exited the area. Next - Obama entered with the same story and didn't apologize and wasn't sympathetic. My aunt cried to this man and all he did was hand her flowers and walk away. I tried to get his attention, but didn't. I got upset and yelled liar to him, he kept walking. Then a secret service agent grabbed my arm and led me to a room where I was held till the proceedings were over. America, I saw firsthand how cold this man is. What kind of liar he is. Most of you haven't a clue about this tyrant and yet you support him. And act like every word he says is Gospel. These murders and the fast and furious cover ups make Watergate look like, a kid who told his bff's secret to the class. THIS PART YOU DON'T KNOW, BUT SHOULD. AMERICAN VALOR, BENGHAZI, LIBYA: The stunning part of this story is that Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty killed 60 of the attacking force. Once the compound was overrun, the attackers were incensed to discover that just two men had inflicted so much death and destruction. The news has been full of the attacks on our embassies throughout the Muslim world, and in particular, the deaths of Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others in Benghazi, Libya. However, there's a little known story of incredible bravery, heroics, and courage that should be the top story. So what actually happened at the U.S. embassy in Libya? We are learning more about this every day. Ambassador Stevens and Foreign Service officer Sean Smith, along with administrative staff, were working out of temporary quarters due to the fact that in the spring of 2011 during the so-called Arab Spring, the United States cut ties with then president Moammar Gadhafi. Our embassy was looted and ransacked, causing it to be unusable. It is still in a state of disrepair. Security for embassies and their personnel is to be provided by the host nation. Since Libya has gone through a civil war of sorts in the past 18 months, the current government is very unstable, and therefore, unreliable. A well-organized attack by radical Muslims was planned specifically targeting the temporary U.S. embassy building. The Libyan security force that was in place to protect our people deserted their post, or joined the attacking force. Either way, our people were in a real fix. And it should be noted that Ambassador Stevens had mentioned on more than one occasion to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, that he was quite concerned for his personal safety and the welfare of his people. It is thought that Ambassador Stevens was on a "hit list". A short distance from the American compound, two Americans were sleeping. They were in Libya as independent contractors working an assignment totally unrelated to our embassy. They also happened to be former Navy Seals. When they heard the noise coming from the attack on our embassy, as you would expect from highly trained warriors, they ran to the fight. Apparently, they had no weapons, but seeing the Libyan guards dropping their guns in their haste in fleeing the scene, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty snatched up several of these discarded weapons and prepared to defend the American compound. Not knowing exactly what was taking place, the two Seals set up a defensive perimeter. Unfortunately Ambassador Stevens was already gravely injured, and Foreign Service officer, Sean Smith, was dead. However, due to their quick action and suppressive fire, twenty administrative personnel in the embassy were able to escape to safety. (But all have been silenced and kept away from congress and all investigations on Benghazi!!) Eventually, these two courageous men were overwhelmed by the sheer numbers brought against them, an enemy force numbering between 100 to 200 attackers which came in two waves. But the stunning part of the story is that Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty killed 60 of the attacking force. Once the compound was overrun, the attackers were incensed to discover that just two men had inflicted so much death and destruction. As it became apparent to these selfless heroes, they were definitely going to lose their lives unless some reinforcements showed up in a hurry. As we know now, that was not to be. I'm fairly certain they knew they were going to die in this gun fight, but not before they took a whole lot of bad guys with them! Consider these tenets of the Navy SEAL Code: 1) Loyalty to Country, Team and Teammate, 2) Serve with Honor and Integrity On and Off the Battlefield, 3) Ready to Lead, Ready to Follow, Never Quit, 4) Take responsibility for your actions and the actions of your teammates, 5) Excel as Warriors through Discipline and Innovation, 6) Train for War, Fight to Win, Defeat our Nation's Enemies, and... 7) Earn your Trident every day. Thank you, Tyrone and Glen. To the very last breath, you both lived up to the SEAL Code. You served all of us well. You were courageous in the face of certain death. And Tyrone, even though you never got to hold your newborn son, he will grow up knowing the character and quality of his father, a man among men who sacrificed himself defending others. Dr. Charles R. Roots Senior Pastor Former Staff Sergeant, USMC Captain, U. S. Navy Chaplain Corps (Ret.) Let us never forget Hillary Clinton's Comment, "What Difference Does It Make?" And she wants to be our next president! She's a joke! |

5/24/2014 2:09:59 AM teacuppers are a vicous lot, and this article stinks: Perhaps, i've watched too many lawyer shows but i've been lead to believe if you find a lie in a testimony, all the testimony is bad. The problem is I can find and did find two authors to this quote. You TrO pasted the above quote from a pastor Rose. Yet i can find from multiple sources the same , EXACT article from a Cathy Lee Myers. So who wrote it , which cousin is the cousin: here"s a link to the same exact article from cousin Cathy Lee Myers: http://reclaimourrepublic.wordpress.com/2013/07/23/video-benghazi-libya-the-true-story-of-just-what-happened-and-cynthia-lee-meyers-comes-forward/ SO WHO IS THE COUSIN, WHO IS THE AUTHOR? it stinks TRO. i check teacup posts for veracity a lot, it amazes me how many blogs, im talking hundreds use the exact wording for anti obama articles, i would not be surprised if the RNC uses funds to rain the internet with the same wording to hundreds of teacup blogs. Are they funded by the RNC, are you being manipulated? |

6/26/2014 2:43:02 PM but he did say this and I QUOTE 'We're not going to give up on destroying the health care system for the American people.'' —Rep. Paul Ryan, March 12, 2013 ''We're not going to be disrespected. We have to get something out of this. And I don't know what that even is.'' —Rep. Marlin Stutzman (R-IN) on the government shutdown, Oct. 1, 2013 Former House Republican leader Tom DeLay: ''There is an argument to be made that these extensions, the unemployment benefits, keep people from going and finding job. In fact there are some studies that have been done that show people stay on unemployment compensation and they don't look for a job until two or three weeks before they know the benefits are going to run out.'' CNN's Candy Crowley: ''People are unemployed because they want to be?'' DeLay: ''Well, it is the truth. And people in the real world know it. 'If ObamaCare passes, that free insurance card that's in people's pockets is gonna be as worthless as a Confederate dollar after the war between the states -- the Great War of Yankee Aggression.'' —Rep. Paul Broun (R- Ga.), March 18, 2010 ''We used to hustle over the border for health care we received in Canada. And I think now, isn't that ironic?'' —Sarah Palin, admitting that her family used to get treatment in Canada's single-payer health care system, despite having demonized such government-run programs as socialized medicine that will lead to death-panel-like rationing, March 6, 2010 'I've always been fascinated by the fact that here was a relatively small country that from a strictly military point of view accomplished incredible things.'' —Ohio GOP House candidate and Tea Party favorite Rich Iott, explaining why for years he donned a German Waffen SS uniform and participated in Nazi re-enactments as part of a group that calls itself Wiking (Atlantic interview, Oct. 2010) ''I haven't seen a half-monkey, half-person yet.'' —Glenn Beck, calling evolution ''ridiculous'', The Glenn Beck Program, Oct. 20, 2010 'The ocean will take care of this on its own if it was left alone and left out there. It's natural. It's as natural as the ocean water is.'' —Rush Limbaugh, on the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, May 3, 2010 ''This president I think has exposed himself over and over again as a guy who has a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture....I'm not saying he doesn't like white people, I'm saying he has a problem. This guy is, I believe, a racist.'' —Glenn Beck, on President Obama, sparking an advertiser exodus from his FOX News show, July 28, 2009 |
