Make sure there is a big sign overhead that displays, 'GAY BAR.'&lt;br /&gt;In the window have a neon sign that says 'Muslims Get in Free.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) On the other side of the mosque, have Sex Shop and Massage Parlor. Make sure it has a big sign overhead that displays, 'SEX SHOP and MASSAGE PARLOR.'&lt;br /&gt;A small sign in the window that says, 'Muslim Women with Burkas get 20 Percent Discount.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3) Across the street from the mosque, have a nice butcher shop specializing in Pork.&lt;br /&gt;A sign overhead that says, 'Fresh BBQ Pork Ribs.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got a story, share it with us.&lt;br /&gt;Post it here in the comments section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;Please Follow My Blog.&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or, just leave me a comment on this post, as always, all comments are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't forget I am on Facebook now, under Ed Hurley, if you can, join me there and become my friend.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-5689689166521554498?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/5689689166521554498/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=5689689166521554498&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/5689689166521554498'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/5689689166521554498'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2010/08/mosques-in-america.html' title='Mosques in America'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-8754247695920722256</id><published>2010-08-08T08:13:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2010-08-08T08:15:24.190-07:00</updated><title type='text'>A Mosque at Ground Zero, NYC, NY:</title><content type='html'>How about this idea...&lt;br /&gt;Screw Islam, revoke any and all citizenship, green cards, and visas then deport all these useless ass Muslims to Saudi Arabia, then Nuke Mecca.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got a story, share it with us.&lt;br /&gt;Post it here in the comments section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;Please Follow My Blog.&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or, just leave me a comment on this post, as always, all comments are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't forget I am on Facebook now, under Ed Hurley, if you can, join me there and become my friend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-8754247695920722256?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/8754247695920722256/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=8754247695920722256&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/8754247695920722256'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/8754247695920722256'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2010/08/mosque-at-ground-zero-nyc-ny.html' title='A Mosque at Ground Zero, NYC, NY:'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-8409663314695774322</id><published>2010-07-25T05:49:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-25T05:52:07.540-07:00</updated><title type='text'>The Difference between Democrats and Republicans:</title><content type='html'>There isn't one.&lt;br /&gt;They both spend America into bankruptcy.

The cost of birth control pills for women was very expensive. Doctors were also reluctant to issue them even to those who could afford them.&lt;br /&gt;2) Also, the cost of condoms were expensive and no proper sex education was taught in the schools.&lt;br /&gt;3) But the real reason was society shunned a non married woman who was either pregnant or had a baby out of wedlock.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now woman have babies all the time if they are not married. Lesbian women use sperm donors.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is not economically sound or intelligent to bring an unwanted child into the world. As a parent myself, I can attest that raising children is both trying and costly. Immense pressure is on parents to give their children the best. This seldom occurs in an unwanted pregnancy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For those religious nuts who think abortion is a sin, I would like to know where their sorry asses are once the child is born? I don't see any of them stepping up to the plate to take of that child through college.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got a story, share it with us.&lt;br /&gt;Post it here in the comments section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;Please Follow My Blog.&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or, just leave me a comment on this post, as always, all comments are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't forget I am on Facebook now, under Ed Hurley, if you can, join me there and become my friend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-20452873903185491?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/20452873903185491/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=20452873903185491&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/20452873903185491'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/20452873903185491'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2010/07/roe-v-wade-and-senseless-argument.html' title='Roe v Wade, and The Senseless Argument:'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-5133647934788260291</id><published>2010-07-10T05:12:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-10T05:13:52.062-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Impeach Barack Hussein Obama, now !</title><content type='html'>Enough said ....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got a story, share it with us.&lt;br /&gt;Post it here in the comments section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;Please Follow My Blog.&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Or, just leave me a comment on this post, as always, all comments are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't forget I am on Facebook now, under Ed Hurley, if you can, join me there and become my friend.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-5133647934788260291?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/5133647934788260291/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=5133647934788260291&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/5133647934788260291'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/5133647934788260291'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2010/07/impeach-barack-hussein-obama-now.html' title='Impeach Barack Hussein Obama, now !'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-7620630694509663858</id><published>2010-07-01T04:43:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-07-01T04:44:28.851-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Dog Owners Endure Discrimination</title><content type='html'>As a dog owner in Arizona I can tell you that I hate cats. I hate cat owners. But most of all I hate these idiot politicians who allow cat owners to have Free Roaming law rights. In fact many states have free roaming laws for cats.&lt;br /&gt;This clearly discriminates against us dog owners.&lt;br /&gt;What is Free Roaming you ask?&lt;br /&gt;Free roaming allows cats to wonder anywhere they want anytime they want. In other words cats don't have to be on a leash, they aren't required to be restricted to the owner's yard, home, or kept in a pen like the law requires for dog owners.&lt;br /&gt;In fact cats are permitted to wonder around breeding like filthy rats, craping and peeing all over someone else's yard including destroying property.&lt;br /&gt;If a dog did this the dog owner who be held liable, but not these damn cat owners.&lt;br /&gt;Another issue is feral cats, these are non domesticated wild cats that wonder all over carrying diseases.&lt;br /&gt;I say dog owners have had enough.&lt;br

The debt ratio is 120 to 1. That means that for every 120 dollars spent the government only takes in 100. In Greece the retirement age is 53 with 80 percent pay and 100 percent medical. We as Americans just paid Greece 50 Billion Dollars (20 percent of the IMF's share). Together with the EU and the IMF it took One Trillion Dollars to stop Greece from defaulting. This is only a temporary fix. It stopped another great depression from happening on Wall Street which recently fell almost 1,000 points in one day on Greece debt default. Wall Street has stabilized temporarily. Buy more and more investors are selling off their paper portfolios such as stocks, bonds, mutual fund, etc, and buying real Gold Bullion. Gold just hit a record $1,247.00 per ounce.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Outlook is Grim at best -&lt;br /&gt;Yet Obama and Congress (both Republicans and Democrats) want to raise the age for retirement in the USA to 70 years old. It seems it's okay for America to fund other retirement programs and bailout foreign governments at America's expense.&lt;br /&gt;When will we say enough is enough.&lt;br /&gt;This is Obama and the Liberal looney lefts plan.

It was started by two democrats, Jack Kennedy (JFK) and Lyndon Johnson (LBJ). This war was out of control with hundreds of thousands of young men being drafted. Yes, the USA had a draft back then. Richard Nixon inherited the war, but did one thing correct, he realized the war could not be won on the ground. So he began to bomb North Vietnam. All major ports, railroads, munition factories, roads, etc. He also mined some harbors to stop foreign ships from delivering supplies. This worked until political pressure ended the war, which lasted almost 10-years.&lt;br /&gt;As a result the democrats became stronger, because they were the left wing liberals who didn't want the war and blamed the Republicans for creating it, although it was clearly started by the Democrats. Essential the bill of goods sold to the American people was we must stop communist aggression before it arrives here in America and we are fighting them in our own streets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was again sold to us about Iraq and Afghanistan but called the war on terrorism. One thing we always here is there's a collation helping us. That is total bunk. In Vietnam less than one percent of forces were non-American.&lt;br /&gt;The same in Iraq and Afghanistan. If we have 200,00 troops and some country sends 150 that's not a coalition, unlike what George Bush told us.&lt;br /&gt;Afghanistan cannot be won. Many have tried. Before us was a whole host including the British and the Russians. The Soviet Union was in Afghanistan nearly 10-years, there Vietnam. Several Russian generals who fought in Afghanistan advised Bush / Cheney the war could not be won on the ground. NATO commanders who are there have said the same thing and reported back to their respective governments making it near impossible for America to get participation.&lt;br /&gt;The bottom line is we need to do one of two things, bomb the hell out of them including the tribal strongholds on the Pakistan border with Afghanistan or get out. American military commanders are infantry based and always think superior forces on the ground will win.&lt;br /&gt;The argument is still being made that if we don't fight the Taliban / al-Qaeda in Afghanistan we will be dealing with them here in America on our own streets.&lt;br /&gt;If we would stop this baby sitting attitude about fairness then we could end this is a few months. There should be no rules of engagement, no fairness in war. General George Patton said it the best: kill them before they kill you, make their wives widows and their children orphans.&lt;br /&gt;I have been to war, and I'll tell you these politicians coupled with desk jockey jackasses in the Pentagon will continue to get Americans killed and prolong this war.&lt;br /&gt;We need to eliminate the the rule on bombing soft targets. In fact get rid of all rules of engagement and kill the worthless shits. These Muslims know we wont bomb or target Mosques, Schools, and Hospitals so they store their arms and explosives under them. Hell in Iraq we have found bomb making factories under soft targets. I say we either bomb everything and level it to the sand or get out and leave the assholes to kill one another.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got a story, share it with us.&lt;br /&gt;Post it here in the comments section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;Please Follow My Blog.&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your comments, as always, are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-3534836323803428291?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/3534836323803428291/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=3534836323803428291&amp;isPopup=true' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/3534836323803428291'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/3534836323803428291'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/12/afghanistan-is-another-vietnam.html' title='Afghanistan is another Vietnam:'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-1454770692471743889</id><published>2009-11-26T08:07:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-26T08:27:31.372-07:00</updated><title type='text'>AARP Sucks</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/Sw6ZyGbTC6I/AAAAAAAAABw/O2ddHNqYm9M/s1600/AARP.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 212px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/Sw6ZyGbTC6I/AAAAAAAAABw/O2ddHNqYm9M/s320/AARP.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5408429288516160418" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AARP Sucks:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am a senior on Social Security, and I have never belonged to nor would I ever waste my damn money on AARP - American Association of Retired People.&lt;br /&gt;I cannot believe retired people are conned into joining this group of useless Liberals who have never done anything for retired people.&lt;br /&gt;Lets look at the facts, starting with latest fiasco, their support of Obama, Pelosi, and Reid healthcare plan for America:&lt;br /&gt;1) AARP supported this plan because it's good for them. It will bring in CASH Dollars by forcing every American at any age to purchase health insurance. They are in bed with United Healthcare.&lt;br /&gt;2) United Healthcare sucks. They are useless I had them for one year and their coverage is terrible,&lt;br /&gt;3) AARP have allowed Medicare and Medicaid to erode. Quality and service along with coverage has decreased while cost has risen.&lt;br /&gt;4) AARP has allowed every piece of shit who should never get Social Security get it, because it's a path to welfare for many and welfare is a bad name to be bandit about.&lt;br /&gt;5) Social Security retirement income has not keep up with inflation. AARP has done little to get seniors the cost of living they need and deserve.&lt;br /&gt;6) They support the AMA – American Medical Association and most doctors aren't even members.&lt;br /&gt;7) They donate large sums of money to politicians especially democrats. If they are going to donate money, giving it to some asshole Congressman is a waste of funds. Senators control everything and there are less of them.&lt;br /&gt;8) Now for the worst part, if you look at AARP the people on salary are hired political guns. There are NO seniors on the payroll. How can you represent seniors when AARP isn't even staffed and run by seniors?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do yourselves a favor, drop out of AARP, they are con artist and scum bags.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got a story, share it with us.&lt;br /&gt;Post it here in the comments section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;Please Follow My Blog.&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your comments, as always, are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-1454770692471743889?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/1454770692471743889/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=1454770692471743889&amp;isPopup=true' title='26 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/1454770692471743889'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/1454770692471743889'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/11/aarp-sucks.html' title='AARP Sucks'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/Sw6ZyGbTC6I/AAAAAAAAABw/O2ddHNqYm9M/s72-c/AARP.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>26</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-4201047456727053469</id><published>2009-11-20T08:51:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-20T08:54:01.759-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Obama Care Part 3, it's not for me:</title><content type='html'>An ABC, Liberal Reporter recently asked President Obama if the Healthcare Bill passes and becomes law, will he and his family along with Congress agree to use it?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Obama avoided the question.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But the U.S. Congress has exempted themselves, their families, people who work for the congressional office, the President, and all cabinet ministers.

This agency is being run by Janet  Napolitano, former Governor of Arizona, and a staunch open border policy and pro illegal immigrant supporter. If you live in Arizona you are aware the borders here are worse now than they have ever been.&lt;br /&gt;So where was the coordination, why do we have these idiot agencies that cost taxpayers billions of dollars if they keep their heads in the sand and pretend shit isn't going to happen if we talk nice to our enemies? But then of course we have a Muslim for President.&lt;br /&gt;America, only a total fool would think another 911, but worse, isn't coming soon.&lt;br /&gt;If you don't own a gun, go buy one, it's the only thing anymore you can count on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got a story, share it with us.&lt;br /&gt;Post it here in the comments section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;Please Follow My Blog.&lt;/big&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your comments, as always, are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-362436614547118743?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/362436614547118743/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=362436614547118743&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/362436614547118743'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/362436614547118743'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/11/fbi-failed-america-again.html' title='The FBI Failed America Again:'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/Sv3BGD8ynMI/AAAAAAAAABg/xbn7HUIgFQU/s72-c/Major+Nidal+Malik+Hasan.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-6262092130333920601</id><published>2009-11-11T05:42:00.004-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-11T05:53:35.927-07:00</updated><title type='text'>On this Veterans Day in America, I have come to the conclusion</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SvqxQa2mYUI/AAAAAAAAABY/e3i6IJS6YKw/s1600-h/love.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 237px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SvqxQa2mYUI/AAAAAAAAABY/e3i6IJS6YKw/s320/love.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5402825598628684098" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks to all my fellow Vets who have served.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-6262092130333920601?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/6262092130333920601/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=6262092130333920601&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/6262092130333920601'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/6262092130333920601'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/11/on-this-veterans-day-in-america-i-have.html' title='On this Veterans Day in America, I have come to the conclusion'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SvqxQa2mYUI/AAAAAAAAABY/e3i6IJS6YKw/s72-c/love.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-8375652322972013605</id><published>2009-11-05T06:33:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-11-05T06:34:13.722-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Obama Care Part 2, it's not for me:</title><content type='html'>Government intervention into our most precious right, the right to life, the right to control our own destiny. Who gives the government the right to interfere with this and other basic human rights that so many Americans have died for to preserve in this country?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I sympathize with those who have lost their jobs or work for employers who do not give healthcare, and yes I do believe that something should be done, but not on a Trillion Dollar Spending Spree that will destroy the total U.S. economy.&lt;br /&gt;The healthcare system when everything is encompassed into that broad definition is suppose to make up one sixth (1/6) of The United States Gross Domestic Economy and Spending. Simply put by allowing the government to interfere is a socialist ploy to control the economy and bring total economic collapse instituting all out socialism, which spells the Soviet Union, which I fought to prevent. Mr, Obama you are not my President and Nancy Pelosi you communist insane twit along with that babbling idiot Harry Reid will create chaos never known in this country before.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Liberals in their narrow minded stupor they call logic always deals with the minority.

Now I realize it's dinner time and restaurants charge more for dinner than lunch, although I don't understand why they do this Monday through Thursday.&lt;br /&gt;We figured it would be about $2.00 more for the same dish. Wrong, it was twice the cost. There was no one in the restaurant eating, the only people there were the workers.&lt;br /&gt;So we left and went to Denny's just down the street.&lt;br /&gt;Now common sense would tell these people to either 1) Feed us at the lunch price and get some business, or 2) Have realistic dinner prices that coincide with a lunch price especially since you got a huge banner across the entire store front. Charging twice as much for dinner as lunch just pisses me off, and it's bad business. They will fail and probably never know why. The man could not understand why we left.&lt;br /&gt;By the way, Denny's was cheaper than the Mexican restaurant lunch price. It's Mexican Food, it's plentiful here n Arizona, and it costs next to nothing to make, I know we make it at home.&lt;br /&gt;P.S. - We are both retired and on a fixed income so money is important, not tight, but cautious spending is still a must!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got a story, share it with us.&lt;br /&gt;Post it here in the comments section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;big&gt;&lt;blink&gt;&lt;b&gt;Please Follow My Blog.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/blink&gt;&lt;/big&gt;&lt;blink&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/blink&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your comments, as always, are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-4699878531999497404?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/4699878531999497404/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=4699878531999497404&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/4699878531999497404'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/4699878531999497404'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/09/one-reason-restaurants-fail.html' title='One Reason Restaurants Fail:'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-889397464667236031</id><published>2009-09-15T08:36:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-15T08:37:56.011-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Obama Care Part 1, Why Congress will eventually pass this bill:</title><content type='html'>My neighbor and I were talking about Obama's Healthcare Plan, we both oppose it, but as Seniors we realize it will become law. We as a nation continue to brings things upon ourselves both as individuals and the system that enslaves us all. In this case, Healthcare.&lt;br /&gt;Let me share a simple story of how screwed up the current healthcare system is.&lt;br /&gt;My friend needs to see a cardiologist. His doctor says he had a minor stroke. His doctor is in with a group of other doctors and run by a group of administrators. His doctor tells him he needs to see this cardiologist soon as possible and that he will arrange an appointment. About 4 days go by and no phone call, so he calls his doctor's office to be told by the admin people they don't male appointments they wanted him to make his own.&lt;br /&gt;Does anyone see the problem?&lt;br /&gt;If your primary care physician allows a bunch of administrative people to make decisions on his behalf affecting you, this is why we have lawyers because it's a bad thing.&lt;br /&gt;A call to a cardiologist from your primary care physician will get you an appointment pretty fast, especially when he says, this patient has had a minor stroke and another is probably imminent.&lt;br /&gt;If you call to make your own appointment you will wait forever. So my friend called another doctor he found and his earliest appointment, even after informing the scheduling staff that he had a minor stoke, will take 6-weeks. He could be dead in six weeks.&lt;br /&gt;The whole medical system, like the justice system is broken in this country.&lt;br /&gt;What we need is a simple approach.&lt;br /&gt;Patient Bill of Rights plus the ability to select any insurer from anywhere for our coverage just like we do with auto and home insurance.&lt;br /&gt;But Obama knows this. His plan is to force all of us to go way beyond what is really needed and jam down our throats big government healthcare.&lt;br /&gt;Hospitals, doctors, administrators, insurance companies, employers, and patients only have themselves to blame for all this!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Got a story, share it with us.&lt;br /&gt;Post it here in the comments section.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blink&gt;Please Follow My Blog.&lt;/blink&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-889397464667236031?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/889397464667236031/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=889397464667236031&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/889397464667236031'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/889397464667236031'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/09/obama-care-part-1-why-congress-will.html' title='Obama Care Part 1, Why Congress will eventually pass this bill:'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-7284244717386660852</id><published>2009-09-12T05:38:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-09-12T05:38:55.190-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Using Corporate Chains versus Using a Local Company:</title><content type='html'>Home Team Pest Control.....&lt;br /&gt;I was for years a user of Home Pest Control, owned by Centex Home Builders, for my insect control treatments.&lt;br /&gt;They have gone through many changes over the years.&lt;br /&gt;They charge $99.00 but only service you once every 3-months. They claim to be a full service company, but on more than one occasion, I have found this to be false.&lt;br /&gt;For example they do not treat for snails.&lt;br /&gt;They don't treat insects that infect trees.&lt;br /&gt;So after a recent confrontation with these idiots, I fired there useless butts when they refused to treat two of my trees that where infected with an insect problem. I spoke to the office manager and he gave me the most lame set of excuses imaginable.&lt;br /&gt;So in my frustration, after paying these assholes $99.00 I went to Home Depot; bought an all purpose but spray that attaches to your garden hose, along with googles, filter mask, and gloves. This cost me $45.00.&lt;br /&gt;I then sprayed everything myself. It's been two weeks and I don't have one damn insect or bug.&lt;br /&gt;I also proceeded to call several local insect control companies who informed me that they charge around $33.00 per treatment. Some spray monthly, some only when you call, none have a contract requirement for service. If you notice the price - $33.00 per month or treatment, while Centex Home Team is $99.00 per treatment but once every 3-moths – does that spell rip off to you?&lt;br /&gt;When I complained to Home Team that their guy didn't spray or treat what I needed all I got was a bunch of lame excuses. I informed them that there are dozens of people out there just waiting to replace their sorry asses and provide me a service. There response was get one of them, so I am and I did.&lt;br /&gt;The proof in this story is that national companies exist for profit not for service.

Here is my take on 'Tort' reform, i.e. limiting the scope and money for lawyers in malpractice medical lawsuits .....&lt;br /&gt;First the damn Trial Lawyers lobbyist group should be taken out and executed, they are a waste of human skin.&lt;br /&gt;Saying that, lets look at the facts.&lt;br /&gt;Fact 1 – Unnecessary lawsuits cause a serious rise in healthcare. Stupid legal actions should be eliminated in all cases and types of lawsuits. Lawyers, often referred to as ambulance chasers should have their licenses revoked.&lt;br /&gt;Fact 2 – Only U.S. Citizens should be allowed to bring any civil action.&lt;br /&gt;Fact 3 – Doctors are equally to blame. I know you're thinking WTF is this guy saying? When you are young your interaction with doctors for the most part is limited. However, as you start getting older this interaction becomes more frequent and regular. There is nothing worse than going to some damn doctor who constantly wants to send you for all kinds of test, and to other doctors. This is unnecessary healthcare and a cost burden. I frankly just tell my doctor you went to medical school and got a license now use it.&lt;br /&gt;Fact 4 – If you have ever been hospitalized, which I have on several occasions, you get a rude awakening. First if I am at the ER all I want to see is an ER doctor, and I want him/her to contact my personal primary care physician (who knows me best). I don't want a bunch of idiot doctors on the hospital payroll coming into my room asking all kinds of questions. This is a gimmick by the hospital to increase your cost. So be advised hospitals are a big cost factor for unnecessary healthcare.&lt;br /&gt;Fact 5 – Arrogant doctors who don't listen to their patients. These idiots who are bent on their way and not listening to you are a large contributing factor to rising healthcare and why lawyers have grounds for lawsuits. These doctors are everywhere. I suggest finding one who tailors their need to you.&lt;br /&gt;Fact 6 – Lack of communication and poor record keeping by the medical profession. If you are seeing more than one doctor, insist that they communicate with one another. The biggest problem is that one doctor may prescribe a medication while another gives you something different for another ailment. ALL medications have side effects, so limit what you take. But what's worse is many prescriptions wont or do not interact with other forms of medication. This can cause real problems even death! Make sure your primary care physician has a complete copy of all your medical records including a copy of your Living Will if you have one.&lt;br /&gt;Finally, I strongly suggest you keep a copy of all your medical history.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your comments, as always, are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-976069692210207245?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/976069692210207245/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=976069692210207245&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/976069692210207245'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/976069692210207245'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/09/tort-reform.html' title='Tort Reform:'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-7328522243105872845</id><published>2009-08-22T08:23:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2009-08-22T08:26:53.850-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Getting the Finger</title><content type='html'>So my wife and I are out early this morning on our way over to some friends for breakfast.

I call the girl after I scan my item. She says, she can't help until I am finished doing all my items, keep in mind she is holding a hand held scanner. So when I am done she punches in the coupon numbers, now my credit card won't work and let me check-out, she has screwed up the system. So now I am getting ticked-off because I can't check out. I say to her, see if you had scanned it as we were going along I'd be out of here by now. She gives me attitude, as I am doing my job, polite for I'll do it my way! So I inform her, no your job is to make me happy, I am the customer. Now we're starting to get into it and everyone is looking.

I noticed the following:&lt;br /&gt;In searching the same 40 channels over several days, they all advertised at one time. This is because Congress and a corrupt FCC allow media moguls to buy up all the TV stations in America. Then they get together and decide what we are going to watch, and when including advertisements. The problem I have is that when they all show the ads at the same time channel surfing becomes a mute point. I realize this is the point of their control and making money, but if just half the TV stations were not syndicated or owned by Media Mogul Giants programming would be more competitive and better.&lt;br /&gt;Adding to the fact that if you are old enough you can remember when cable was first introduced, they promised Congress that the American public would get 400 free channels of viewing. I don't know of any cable or satellite company that offers 400 channels that are free, and I am not counting stupid programming channels playing music. I mean real TV Station Channels.&lt;br /&gt;As a point of reference, there are currently over 400 TV channels licensed in the USA by the FCC. So, why don't the cable companies offer them.&lt;br /&gt;Another interesting point of course is COST.&lt;br /&gt;If cable companies were forced to offer all local programming channels free and any other channels for just one dollar ($1.00) per channel they would have a larger selection or at least bundle them in better viewing arrangements at a lower cost.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sorry I have been remiss on posting, was having real health issues, again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your comments, as always, are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-6279961736359397799?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/6279961736359397799/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=6279961736359397799&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/6279961736359397799'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/6279961736359397799'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/07/consumer-fraud-by-media.html' title='Consumer Fraud by The Media:'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-3406517030972762454</id><published>2009-05-26T10:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-26T10:37:22.756-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Why aren't celebrities adopting U.S. kids?</title><content type='html'>Pop star Madonna is back in the news; this time, trying to adopt another black child from an African nation, it would be her second child.&lt;br /&gt;It seems that anytime we hear about celebrities like Madonna adopting, the children are from another country. I'm not at all opposed to children being adopted from Africa, China or any other country, but it does raise the question: What's wrong with adopting American children?&lt;br /&gt;Now I'm not against anyone providing a secure, loving home for a child, but it seems to me that these stories often reinforce a growing public image of adoption for many Americans: that of a rich, famous individual going to a developing country to adopt a child.&lt;br /&gt;According to various adoption and governmental agencies, more than 500,000 American children are under foster care, and many of them are waiting for adoption. From coast to coast, babies to toddlers to teens are desperately looking for a home where they can be loved, nurtured and provided for.&lt;br /&gt;Now, it would be easy to blast these celebrities by saying it's the hip thing to walk around with an international child, but truth be told, we've got a serious adoption problem in this country.&lt;br /&gt;Single mothers have a difficult time adopting a child and let's not even talk about the red tape and bureaucracy!&lt;br /&gt;American parents are made to jump through enormous hoops, and the process takes years, instead of months. And all too often, single people and married couples simply grow disenchanted with the process in America.&lt;br /&gt;If you think it should be easier to adopt American children, demand that your local, state and federal election officials clear the pathway to make the process easier. And let's have more consistency. Having 50 different states set their own policy, is frankly, nonsense. With so many rules, no wonder folks throw their hands up and move on.&lt;br /&gt;The goal of adoption is to put children in loving homes and not have them be the responsibility of the state. Making it harder to adopt affects you in your pocketbook because taxpayer money is spent to care for the children. So changing the laws not only helps the child, but also is fiscally prudent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Arizona I know several people who all ready have children of their own and wanted to do a good thing by adding a needed child to their family.

The U.S. is by far the world's largest donor to the UN. The U.S. provides other assistance for peacekeeping operations. The U.S. responds to emergency appeals. We are always on deck.&lt;br /&gt;Yet, the head of the UN comes to Congress and scolds us for not doing enough? He demands yet more money from us while making little progress in cleaning up the badly-broken UN?&lt;br /&gt;The UN's ineffectiveness is not from a lack of cash, but the result of a corrupt system which wastes money and apologizes for dictatorships.&lt;br /&gt;The UN has been hijacked by a rogues' gallery that uses our funds to undermine peace and security. Dictatorships use the Human Rights Council and Durban 2 conference process to restrict universal freedoms and protect extremists. The UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) aids violent Islamist and partners with money-laundering banks under U.S. sanctions or under U.S. investigation for financing Islamist militants. The UN Development Program (UNDP) pays the legal fees of its corrupt officials but refuses to protect whistle-blowers.&lt;br /&gt;"While Iran, Syria, and North Korea endanger the entire world, the UN is pre-occupied with condemning democratic states like the U.S. and Israel.&lt;br /&gt;The American people are facing serious economic challenges here at home.

In other words what you pay, for example, from the age of 16 through 55 is for others to collect.&lt;br /&gt;What you pay from 55 to 65 is yours, so to speak.&lt;br /&gt;So he called Binder and Binder, those lawyers who advertise on TV that they can get your social security benefits, is a total crock of bull.&lt;br /&gt;What the lawyer told my friend is he is not entitled to any benefits.&lt;br /&gt;The lawyer, gave him a simply explanation.&lt;br /&gt;She said, “Paying into social security is like paying auto insurance premiums.

The latest craze is copying ATM and Credit Card magnetic strips and then using your data to clean out you bank account. Every security expert in the world agrees that magnetic strips are outdated and a serious security risk. Most banks outside the United States have gone to chip implants in their cards (no magnetic strips). The banks in the USA agree with this observation but claim it is too costly to replace the ATM machines that use these same magnetic strips.&lt;br /&gt;And, finally, these same banks want to be bailed out by the consumers they are screwing with our tax dollars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you don't think this is a problem you been living in a cave.&lt;br /&gt;An identity is stolen every 3 seconds in the United States.&lt;br /&gt;Now add to the misery, these same banks are in cahoots with credit reporting agencies who want to charge you a fee to get your credit report, and they take their sweat time about fixing issues involving wrongful postings including identity theft.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All these banks and credit card companies half to do is make credit, debit, and ATM cards with a chip; add your picture I.D. and a thumb print on the card.

I did the right thing I started with American made, the Cadillac and the Lincoln Towncar, and I don't mean those piece of junk SUVs, I mean a real luxury 4-door sedan.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ford has screwed up the design on the Lincoln Towncar so bad only a complete moron would buy a new 2009.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I called the Cadillac and Lincoln dealers and told them I wanted the following in my vehicle:&lt;br /&gt;Remote Start with Keyless Ignition.&lt;br /&gt;Sun/Moon Roof that opens but has a interior slide to eliminate all light.&lt;br /&gt;Voice Activated GPS System (this is the one that talks to you).&lt;br /&gt;Lojack Recovery System.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I found out is basically forget it.&lt;br /&gt;GM wants you too subscribe to their On-Star System and Ford they are so far out of it they just don't get it.&lt;br /&gt;Add to the fact both American car companies want to charge you for things like white wall tires, moulding and trim package, wheel covers, trunk and floor mats, and whole host of other things that foreign car companies give you as standard on their cars.&lt;br /&gt;Many of the things I wanted are not even available on GM or Ford. For example sun roofs are no longer available on the Lincoln Towncar.&lt;br /&gt;To make things worse, both the Lincoln and Cadillac dealers tried to sell me a used 2008. They wanted to install the items I wanted themselves.

Then everyone wonders why children are overweight, hyper active in school, and develop health problems like heart disease, high blood pressure, etc.&lt;br /&gt;America - you are out of shape. Phy Ed should be mandatory for all school children, at least 3 times per week, starting in Kindergarten through the last year of high school. Phy Ed will solve the overweight out of shape hyper active problems with today's school children. Phy Ed also stimulates the brain by pumping oxygen to needed brain cells. Common sense is out the window with these so-called out of date modern educators.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Add to the simple fact the educational studies are not consistent with the needs to obtain a job in today's complex high tech society.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The things that should be eliminated are:&lt;br /&gt;English Literature (no one ever got a job knowing this bullshit).&lt;br /&gt;Reading Books for English, like poetry, novels, etc. (again, no job here) - substitute other required educational books like science for reading books and you get a double banger. One book serves two different class purposes.&lt;br /&gt;Eliminate Human and Historical studies (no job here either).&lt;br /&gt;Make Geography and U.S. History studied only during the last year of high school. The world changes all the  time so this will get you up to date as you enter society.&lt;br /&gt;Stop requiring students to learn dates, times, and places including names of people. These are unimportant. What's important are the relevant facts of the item.&lt;br /&gt;Math and Science must be started at an early age, preferably in Kindergarten.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unless we change our ways quickly America will continue to fall behind in both technology and in our educational standards in the world ranking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always, your comments are greatly appreciated and welcomed.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-577297833771067669?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/577297833771067669/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=577297833771067669&amp;isPopup=true' title='7 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/577297833771067669'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/577297833771067669'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/01/united-states-educational-system-its.html' title='United States Educational System: It&apos;s Broken, here&apos;s why:'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>7</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-7083045951470486566</id><published>2009-01-16T11:18:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2009-01-16T11:49:18.430-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Telephone Company Lunacy</title><content type='html'>Every Telephone Company in America wants ridiculous phone rates and cannot understand why they continue to lose business. It doesn't matter whether you get the phone service from your local phone company, cable provider, or a third party, the rates are outrageous.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lets look at the Facts:&lt;br /&gt;1. Twenty Percent (20%) of all phone lines in the United States are NOT being used. This is caused by an increase in cellphone use.&lt;br /&gt;2. Cell Phone Providers with cellphones can now do everything a telephone company can do with a land line including international calling.&lt;br /&gt;3. Telephone companies are archaic. They still require you to dial '1' on all long distance calls. To my knowledge no cellphone requires this. The number one (1) is the United States Country Code. Every country gets a country code. So the only time the '1' is needed is if you are outside the United States calling into the USA. So why do the phone companies still require it?&lt;br /&gt;4. Telephone Companies say they offer all kinds of things as part of their service plan. But in fact a cellphone can do the same thing and more for less money per month!&lt;br /&gt;5. If you use a telephone land line provided by your local cable company such as Cox, when the cable goes out so does your phone service.&lt;br /&gt;6. If you have a problem with your cellphone you take it to the local store. Most cellphone providers have numerous cellphone store locations throughout the area you live. The telephone company doesn't provide a phone, you have to buy it. They cost as much if not more than a cellphone. If you need service from your local phone company they charge you to come out. If your cellphone fails completely you throw it away and get another one. Worse case you cancel the service and get another provider.&lt;br /&gt;7. Many telephone companies want a deposit for service. I don't know of any cellphone provider that ask for a deposit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are just some of the facts that are real. So with decreasing customer base by telephone companies, why are their rates going up, or are so expensive? When my local cable company first got into competing with Quest for phone service, I could get two phones at my house (two separate) lines for less money than one phone line from Quest (the local phone company). Now Cox and Quest are about the same for one line. Then new players come along like Vonage. It's a rip off. Why do I want to pay for long distance with them? I have a cellphone provider that gives me unlimited calls anywhere in the USA.&lt;br /&gt;My son-in-law uses an iChat program that is free called SKYPE. You can two video chat for as long as you want for free through your computer. It works on any type of computer software system. Add to this you can make calls anywhere in the world to a land line or cellphone for a few cents per minute.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bottom Line - Phone Companies, you are outdated, Who Needs You?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As always your comments are both welcomed and appreciated, pro or con, I don't filter out any posted comments like some bloggers do.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-7083045951470486566?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/7083045951470486566/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=7083045951470486566&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/7083045951470486566'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/7083045951470486566'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/01/telephone-company-lunacy.html' title='Telephone Company Lunacy'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-4723510405670345144</id><published>2009-01-12T05:08:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2009-01-12T05:22:20.668-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Lawyers Cause Hunger in America</title><content type='html'>This post requires some thinking....&lt;br /&gt;Are you aware that the reason grocery stores, local restaurants, and other national chains like Costco, Wal-Mart, etc, throw their food away instead of giving it to the local shelters or people in need is because of the fear of being sued?&lt;br /&gt;Yes that's right lawyers are causing hunger in America.&lt;br /&gt;These store owners know if some smuck out their gets sick from the food they gave away, that person will run to one of these asshole ambulance chasing low life scumbag lawyers and sue them.&lt;br /&gt;So instead of having any liability stores would rather throw it away.&lt;br /&gt;This creates two problems...&lt;br /&gt;1) People go hungry when they could be fed.&lt;br /&gt;2) This waste increases our landfills at time we are suppose to be going green.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So you stinking Liberals, what do you have to say about starving people in America?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your comments as always are welcomed and appreciated.&lt;br /&gt;I dare some lawyer to defend their concept that suing someone trying to do a good deed is justified.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-4723510405670345144?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/4723510405670345144/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=4723510405670345144&amp;isPopup=true' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/4723510405670345144'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/4723510405670345144'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2009/01/lawyers-cause-hunger-in-america.html' title='Lawyers Cause Hunger in America'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-6350699564947202846</id><published>2009-01-09T06:17:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2009-01-09T06:27:15.186-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Life is Funny Sometimes</title><content type='html'>As you grow older you will realize that life offers many paths.&lt;br /&gt;My father taught me, as I have taught my children, LIFE is like walking through the woods and coming upon a split in the trail.

Do you think our U.S. soldiers when captured are not tortured? In fact radical Islamic terrorist torture all their prisoners then cut their heads off while they are alive, video tape it, and post it on the Internet! It's not just terrorist. The Japanese, Germans, Vietnamese and North Korea all tortured American soldiers.&lt;br /&gt;2. If saving the life of one American gets the information we need, then any method should be used on non American citizens. I have always found that Liberals soon become advocates of harsh justice when it's one of their own who is killed.&lt;br /&gt;3. It is easy to sit in front of you computer, TV, or stand around the cooler at the office condemning America when your not the one who is out protecting our freedoms that allow you to spout that ignorance out of your mouth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am sure this will raise some eyebrows and get a dialog started.&lt;br /&gt;Agree - Don't agree, it's all Ok, post your comment, if you dare!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8761097443734492167-5212324193139934861?l=sellingoutusa.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/feeds/5212324193139934861/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=8761097443734492167&amp;postID=5212324193139934861&amp;isPopup=true' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/5212324193139934861'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/8761097443734492167/posts/default/5212324193139934861'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://sellingoutusa.blogspot.com/2008/12/controversy-over-torturing-terrorist.html' title='The Controversy Over Torturing Terrorist'/><author><name>Ed Hurley</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05095323196721220666</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_H1rGe_OwvXc/SSRU54kUTTI/AAAAAAAAAAM/1Qy2gvlMrOI/S220/Profile.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8761097443734492167.post-6339259647080308002</id><published>2008-12-13T08:40:00.002-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-13T08:54:49.673-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Going Crazy Over Animals</title><content type='html'>Look you advent morons who think animals are better than humans, this message is for you:&lt;br /&gt;Like the news media and P.E.T.A. when it comes to animals you are all in need of serious psychiatric help.&lt;br /&gt;I have a pet myself, a dog.

Coyotes are very dangerous. They kill other animals including pets like dogs and cats.&lt;br /&gt;They also attack people, especially small children and will eat them.&lt;br /&gt;They idiots in Maricopa County Animal Control think these stupid ass dangerous animals should be protected from humans.
