Two standards?

After Katrina, the media blamed the lack of response on the Bush administration's dislike of black people.
Can we then conclude from the lack of media coverage and response by the Obama administration that Obama doesn't like white people?
See Below:
Where are the Hollywood celebrities holding telethons asking for help

in restoring Iowa and North Dakota and helping the folks affected by

the floods?     Where is good old Michael Moore?

Why is the media NOT asking the tough questions about why the federal government hasn't solved this problem?
......Asking where the FEMA trucks and trailers and food services are?


Why isn't the Federal government moving Iowa people into free hotels in Chicago and Minneapolis ?

When will Spike Lee say that the Federal government blew up the levees that failed in Des Moines ?

Where are Sean Penn, Bono, and the Dixie Chicks?

Where are all the looters stealing high-end tennis shoes, cases of beer and television sets?


When will we hear Governor Chet Culver say that he wants to rebuild a 'vanilla' Iowa ... because that's what God wants?
Where is the hysterical 24/7 media coverage complete with reports of shootings at rescuers, of rapes and murder?

Where are all the people screaming that Barack Obama hates white, rural people? My God, where are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt,
Oprah, and Ray Coniff Jr?

How come you will never hear about the Iowa flooding ever again? Where are the gov't. bail out vouchers? The government debit cards?
More people died in these floods than from Katrina...how come the media doesn't report that?!!!!! There must be one hell of a big difference between the value of the people of Iowa and value of the people of Louisiana ..
HERE'S THE REAL TRUTH: 
THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF GOVERNMENT CONTROL OF THE MEDIA, AND SOON TO BE GOV'T. CONTROL OF INTERNET, CELL PHONES, RADIO AND ALL COMMUNICATION AS WELL AS THE PRESENT NETWORK NEWS ON TV. 
WAKE UP, AMERICANS... 
WHOMEVER CONTROLS THE MEDIA CONTROLS THE COUNTRY! THIS IS ONLY ONE OF THE "ARMS" THAT IS NOW IN PLACE TO ACCOMPLISH THE TAKE OVER OF YOUR COUNTRY!

WHEN WE WERE YOUNG!

            To Those of You Born  1930 - 1979
           
            At the end of this email is a quote of the month by Jay Leno. If you don't read anything else, please
           
            read what he said. Very well stated, Mr. Leno.
           
           
            TO ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED THE
           
            1930's, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's!!
           
            First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant.
           
            They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can and didn't get tested for diabetes.
           
            Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-base paints.
           
           
            We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, locks on doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had baseball caps not helmets on our heads.
           
           
            As infants & children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, booster seats, seat belts or air bags.
           
           
            Riding in the back of a pick up truck on a warm day was always a special treat.
           
            We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle.
           
           
            We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and no one actually died from this.
           
           
            We ate cupcakes, white bread, real butter and bacon. We drank Kool-aid made with real white sugar. And, we weren't overweight. WHY?
           
            Because we were always outside, playing...that's why!
           
            We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on.
           
            No one was able to reach us all day. And, we were O.K.
           
            We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times,we learned to solve the problem.
           
           
            We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's and X-boxes. There were no video games, no 150 channels on cable, no video movies or DVD's, no surround-sound or CD's, no cell phones, no personal computers, no Internet and no chat rooms.
            WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!
           
            We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents.
           
           
            We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.
           
            We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays, made up games with sticks and tennis balls and, although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes.
           
            We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them.
           
            Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment.
           
            Imagine that!!
           
            The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law!
           
            These generations have produced some of the best risk-takers problem solvers and inventors problem solvers and inventors ever.
           
            The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas.
           
           
            We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all.
            If YOU are one of them? CONGRATULATIONS!
           
            You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids, before the lawyers and the government regulated so much of our lives for our ow n good.
           
            While you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave and lucky their parents were.
           
             Kind of makes you want to run through the house with scissors, doesn't it ?
           
            ~
           
            The quote of the month is by Jay Leno:
            'With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the country from one end to another, and with the threat of bird flu and terrorist attacks, are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?'
           

            For those that prefer to think that God is not watching over us...go ahead and delete this.
            For the rest of us...pass this on.

What kind of friend is Obama?

A FALSE FRIEND CAN DO MORE DAMAGE THAN AN OPEN ENEMY.
Now Obama has found a new friendship (or is it) He has made the demand that negotiations over a future Palestinian state beginning with the statement that Israel will have to hand over all of the disputed territories acquired in a defensive war 44 years ago. Is the president again serving as chief negotiator for the Palestinians or is this just his Muslim traits finely coming out?
Obama made his unprecedented demands on Israel, suggesting that Israel has been reluctant to make peace. It's an interesting word choice. Far from the words that he used in his 2008 speech. You might say he is talking out both sides of his mouth! An supporter and friend (like yours truly) of the Israel could look at things a lot differently.
At the U.N., the General Assembly will vote in September on declaring the statehood of "Palestine." What then? Will Israel's efforts to disarm the Palestinians in Gaza be considered an act of war against a sovereign state?
And what of the Palestinians, with whom Israel would most probably be negotiating these "land swaps"? No person or no country cannot be expected, or given a demand to negotiate with" those "who do not recognize its right to exist." The Palestinian Authority and Hamas have just made a agreement, After the ceremony in Cairo, Mahmoud Abbas made known very clearly that Hamas had surrendered none of its extremism to get the deal: "It is not required of Hamas to recognize Israel. We will form a government that will not ask Hamas to recognize Israel. "Why has Obama chosen to make a public demand that Israel surrender its vital and necessary security, the barrier of land that safeguards them. That is rewarding Hamas and the Palestinians' constant and commitment to Israel's destruction. A false friend can do more damage than an open enemy. What kind of friend is Obama?
During the course of the Obama presidency he has claimed over and declare again to be a unwavering and committed friend to Israel. He certainly made that impression when he addressed the AIPAC conference in 2008.

"We know that we cannot relent, we cannot yield, and, as president, I will never compromise when it comes to Israel's security ... not when there are still voices that deny the Holocaust, not when there are terrorist groups and political leaders committed to Israel's destruction, not when there are maps across the Middle East that don't even acknowledge Israel's existence, and government-funded textbooks filled with hatred towards Jews, not when there are rockets raining down on Israel, and Israeli children have to take a deep breath and summon uncommon courage every time they board a bus or walk to school."

Obama went further. In the same speech, he stated that:

 "there is no room at the negotiating table for terrorist organizations." The president didn't touch on the matter of borders, but he did pledge that "Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided."

But since coming to office, Obama’s dealings and actions have been anything but friendly. He publicly demanded in 2009 that Israel stop all settlement building. By announcing American demands on Israel at the United Nations, (the sewer on the east end of New York), the seat of hostile, Israel-despising dictators and tyrants, the president betrayed his promise to stand by the only democracy in the Middle East and, also contributed to the impression of being a threat and danger toward Israel. Obama’s concept of friendship toward Israel was big enough to permit him to insult the nation's prime minister during a Washington just because Netanyahu had not agreed to stop building apartments for Jews in Jerusalem, and he instructed Hillary Clinton (secretary of state) to engage in a dressing down of Netanyahu for the same thing.

Now Obama has found a new friendship (or is it a new friendship) He has made the demand that negotiations over a future Palestinian state beginning with the statement that Israel will have to hand over all of the disputed territories acquired in a defensive war 44 years ago. Is the president again serving as chief negotiator for the Palestinians or is this just his Muslim traits finely coming out? A person can not talk out of both sides of their month! How can we trust this man about other matters?

To Kill an American

Written by an Australian Dentist

 

You probably missed this in the rush of news, but there was actually a report that someone in Pakistan had published in a newspaper, an offer of a reward to anyone who killed an American, any American.

So an Australian dentist wrote an editorial the following day to let everyone know what an American is. So they would know when they found one. (Good one, mate!!!!)

'An American is English, or French, or Italian, Irish, German, Spanish, Polish, Russian or Greek. An American may also be Canadian, Mexican, African, Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Australian, Iranian, Asian, Arab, Pakistani or Afghan.

An American may also be a Comanche, Cherokee, Osage, Blackfoot, Navaho, Apache, Seminole or one of the many other tribes known as native Americans..

An American is Christian, or he could be Jewish, or Buddhist, or Muslim. In fact, there are more Muslims in America than in Afghanistan . The only difference is that in America they are free to worship as each of them chooses.

An American is also free to believe in no religion.. For that he will answer only to God, not to the government, or to armed thugs claiming to speak for the government and for God.

An American lives in the most prosperous

land in the history of the world..

The root of that prosperity can be found in the Declaration of Independence, which recognizes the God-given right of each person

to the pursuit of happiness.

An American is generous.. Americans have helped out just about every other nation in the world in their time of need, never asking a thing in return.

When Afghanistan was over-run by the Soviet army 20 years ago, Americans came with arms and supplies to enable the people to win back their country!

As of the morning of September 11, Americans had given more than any other nation to the poor in Afghanistan ..

The national symbol of America , The Statue of Liberty , welcomes your tired and your poor, the wretched refuse of your teeming shores, the homeless, tempest tossed. These in fact are the people who built America

Some of them were working in the Twin Towers the morning of September 11, 2001, earning a better life for their families. It's been told that the World Trade Center victims were from at least 30 different countries, cultures, and first languages, including those that aided and abetted the terrorists.

So you can try to kill an American if you must. Hitler did. So did General Tojo, and Stalin, and Mao Tse-Tung, and other blood-thirsty tyrants in the world.. But, in doing so, you would just be killing yourself. Because Americans are not a particular people from a particular place. They are the embodiment of the human spirit of freedom. Everyone who holds to that spirit, everywhere, is an American.
