Forget Gold--Buy Food E-mail

ImageDifficult times could lay before us.  In my opinion, we still have at least two years of disruptive Government policies, and fostering if not outright incitement of class warfare by this administration.  Civil unrest might be a reality and the breakdown of normal market channels and retail trade may very well ensue.  Most of us won't have any control over such an event, but we certainly can prepare ourselves to cope with future uncertainties.  I took the step this week of purchasing a one week supply of survival food for myself and my wife.  A month's supply would probably be better, but what I bought was a start, and certainly better than nothing.  I feel good about this investment, and I'll tell you why.

November 22, 1963--America's First 9/11 E-mail
Written by Bob Sordahl

Some Republicans As Clueless As Dems E-mail

ImageOn November 2nd, we witnessed one of the largest political shifts to the Right in this Country's history.  It is what we have been working for during the last two years, and it was gratifying to see that the American people have realized we were going in the wrong direction.  But now, the work begins.  Now the Republican leadership must lead and they must focus on the issues that drove this historical shift.  If however, they believe that November 2nd was a mandate to try to destroy this President, they are setting themselves up for massive failure.
