Vote out Politicians who voted for Cap and Trade

Go to this link to see what politicians sold you down the river and voted Yes to the cap and trade. You should spend next few years voting these people out. This is one of the worst bills they are getting passed in a huge mess of terrible bills. Another one that Obama tacked on 300 more pages the night before they were suppose to vote. That helped vote in California's zoning laws. And we all know who well California is doing right now. Bankrub. And look at all the politicians who voted yes from California. They want your money. They are giving the people who live there IOU's. We have to stop voting these people in.

I want to thank the Thomas Latham and Steven King of Iowa for voting against. You will get my vote. Who won't get my vote. Who am I going to do every thing I can to make sure people know not to vote for them? From Iowa we need to vote out Bruce Braley, David Loebsack, and Leonard Boswell. They voted for special interest groups and against the people who voted them in. They voted for the biggest tax increase ever seen. They voted for bogus global warming so they can tax you for breathing out the very air you breath. That plants need to grow.

To see how your representives voted click on the link. Why isn't this something the people who will be affected by increasing our taxes by thousands of dollars allowed to bring this to a vote?

Of course this is also the new government that let Al Franken do the most blatent act of voter fraud we have ever seen. AAARRRGGGGHHHHH. If your not mad over this you don't realize what you just lost.

Great video


Dirk has a post today that is just excellent. Today when most politicians make you want to throw rotten tomatoes, it is nice to be reminded that some still have morals and standards and will stand up to the decay spreading though Washington. Click here to listen. Thanks Dirk for sharing.

Sunday

It's Sunday and we are grilling for the family today. There are several picky eaters so I am keeping it really simple. Hamburgers, hot dogs, chips and salsa and corn of the cob. I might make a cake but that is it. Less stress that way anyway.


They are all back from their mini vacation at the water park where they had a great time it sounds like. My sun is fried and I gave him a bad time about no sunscreen. He told me he was wearing it all the time though. None of the kid got burn't.


I have been running around taking a bunch of random shots trying different settings on my camera. I have had it almost a year and still haven't mastered it. Anyway that explains all the strange shots today. No theme.


Forgotten toys, old tin badges, weeds from my garden. All pose for me to try my hand at. On this little dinosaur I didn't notice the spider or you can be sure I wouldn't have picked it up. Yikes.



I still am not feeling well. My back and shoulder hurts and I am still coughing and feel winded. I hope the inhaler kicks in soon. I feel like I am on the verge of a asthma attack all the time. My chest is tight. I feel sorry for someone with severe asthma.

See the little baby fungus with their mommy, isn't it cute, LOL.


Martha and I are going to start getting ourselves back in shape. So today I am going for a walk with Rick. He usually walks to slow for me but he has been riding so maybe he sped up some. I want to go soon while it is cooler. I have taken my motrin and asthma meds so I am good to go. Then to the store to get things for our meal and some things to entertain the kids while they are here. Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

The picture in the last post was my air conditioning grill.

Rain...... Again


But it is suppose to be the end for awhile. I hope so. It does keep the dust down though.

I went to my doc's today. They did a chest xray which shows my lungs are good. Thank goodness because when you smoked as many years as I did you do kind of worry. But I do have to get a echo done on my heart. My heart was slightly enlarged and my edema, or swelling in my legs is worse then normal. That could also account for my cough. So Wednesday I get a echo.

We have a genetic cardiomyopathy in my family which is why my brother died and why my younger sister is so ill. One doc said I didn't have to worry since I was over 4o but my sisters doc said that that didn't matter. It could be because I haven't been losing the weight like I should. Shame on me. Anyway I am back to taking my advair for awhile which I hate. But only for 2 weeks. I need to get my lungs in shape because Rick is up to 30 miles on his bike and I am having trouble with a mile or two. No 100+ mile trips for us.

The kids should be back tomorrow. They have our van and I will be glad to get it back. Those little putter cars just aren't the same and my Riveria has the heat stuck on. Just what we don't need today. I just realized the kids will be here Wednesday. We will take them to the hospital with us and then do lunch. I get to see them all day each day next week. Fun fun.

Well. I am going to get supper ready. Rick is suppose to grill steaks if the rain stops long enough. I have a nice bottle of wine chilling and am going to steam some veggies. I sure love my days off.

Finally off




My Pride and Joys. Aren't they just cute, Look just like me, LOL. Actually my granddaughter looks alot like me as a child. That's me in the top photo, look at those cheeks, still have them darn.


I am off for a week now, thank goodness. This has been a long stretch and my body needs to just relax. My grandkids are off with their dad on a mini vacation until Saturday so I can' t see them but to just relax will be nice.

Not to nag but here is another great article on this cap and trade bill which they say will be the biggest new tax in American history if it passes. Al Gore would be so proud.

Sorry about this to my readers over the pond. Our taxing is just going through the roof here as it is probably doing everywhere and it just ticks me off.

Anyway, on to other things. I am going to see my regular doc about this cough if I can get in tomorrow. I was a smoker for many years so a lingering cough shouldn't be ignored. It is likely I have a little chronic bronchitis from the crud I kept getting back this year but it is annoying. I quit smoking to get rid of this cough.

It has been extremely hot and humid around here with storms rolling through nightly. My AC is going overtime. The dog day's of summer are upon us. The weather never seems to bother Rick and he has been riding his bike and working outside for days while I sleep. Me, staying in the cool. Zoey hates the heat also.

New's flash. Michael Jackson just had a huge heart attack and they were doing CPR on him all the way to the hospital. Wow. Young. Farrah Fawcett, RIP. She gave it a good run.

Well, it is time to run. Bye all
