American youths are becoming more and more dependent on their parents for everything in their daily lives. There was a time when a boy could survive with his knife and fishing pole for the whole summer.Adults didn't worry about the child's safety unless he wasn't seen all day. An example is Tom Sawyer. Though fiction, Samuel Clemens must have gotten the idea somewhere. Nowadays most boys (and men) can't even catch a fish (I'm happy to say I'm not one of them!). For ideas that sharpen your outdoor skills read The American Boys Handy Book.

The Bill
Nothing disgusts me more than a video I found on you-tube of the House of Representatives after they passed the Healthcare bill. They erupted into cheers and chants of "YES WE CAN!". Why are they bent on destroying Americans?

The End
Well,it's over. The America we know. Barack Hussien Obama has ended it. Healthcare"Reform" is going to ruin the economy and the traditions of America. Two of the points in this bill are these. First,"children" up to 26 can stay on their parents plan. They do not need to pay for healthcare until the age of 26. This proves Americans are babies who need Mommy for everything. Second, taxpayers have to pay for the abortions of innocent, helpless humans. Yes, we have to pay for some immoral woman's "mistake". Let's end this USASSR. Vote carefully in November[if we still can!].

Do They Have a Right?
Constitutionally, the goverment has no right to the information they ask for in the census. The original purpose for the census was to find out how many representatives were needed for each state. Now they feed us these lies about how the information is going to help education. Does it seem logical that knowing how much water we use will help them know how many teachers we need? The only info we are constitutionally required to give is the number of people in our house. The answer to this problem is simple. Don't put down the answers.

George Washington: First in the Hearts of His Countrymen
George Washington was born on February 22,1732 in Westmoreland County. He was educated at home by his father and brother. While he was young, he worked as a surveyor, a job that proved very valuable later in his life because it helped him learn about the land in Virginia. During the French and Indian War, Washington was commissioned a Lieutenaut Colonel. Washington led a group of men against a French party of about thirty men. Unfortunatly, the patrol held Washington's men. General Braddock made Washington his aide during the Monongahela Expodition, which ended in failure for Britain. However, Washington established himself as a hero because he rode up and down the line of Battle. Because of this, he was given command of the Viginian forces. After the war, Washington returned home and married Martha Custis. When Britain passed the stamp act in 1765, Washington opposed it, but did not become a leading figure in the opposition until the Townshend Acts of 1767. Washington attended the Virginia Conventions and was selected as a delegate for the First Continental Congress. Congress created the Continental Army and appointed Washington commander. During the seige of Boston, He moved the army to the heights above the city, Dorchester Heights to be exact, and caused the British to evacuate the city. The Continental Army moved to New York. In August, Howe launched a campaign to take New York. Washington could not hold them and launched a massive retreat across the river. The army retreated to New Jersey. On Christmas night, 1775, Washington crossed the Deleware River and captured almost 1,000 Hessian soldiers. Washington was defeated at Brandywine, and this allowed the British to occupy Philadelphia. Washington's army stayed at Valley Forge during the winter. After the winter, Washington attacked at Monmouth and drove the British off the battlefield. Washington ended the war by dealing the final blow at Yorktown. Washington was unanimously elected president and took the first oath of office in 1789. Washington died after retirement in 1799 of pneumonia at Mount Vernon. History will remember him.

Maybe Obama Needs Healthcare Reform.
Did Barack Obama deserve the Nobel Peace Prize? No. Does our holy president smoke? You betcha. Our great role model of a president also sent a case of beer, yes B-E-E-R, to the Canadian Prime Minister. Shocking. What's really shocking is the news media acting like it's cute. He's our president for crying out loud, not some hobo riding the rails. If Bush had been caught smoking, he would be signing his letter of resignation. Obama is trying to "reform" healthcare, yet he engages in unhealthy practices. Should we really trust a hypocrite? Mr.Obama, grow up.
