AN OPEN LETTER TO
PRESIDENT OBAMA

Dear President Obama:

You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike
Any of the others, you truly scare me.

You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.


You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive
Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no
Visible signs of support.

You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth
Growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.

You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.

You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus
Don't understand it at its core.

You scare me because you lack humility and 'class', always blaming others.

You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned
Yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to
Publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail..

You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the 'blame America '
Crowd and deliver this message abroad.

You scare me because you want to change America to a European style
Country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.

You scare me because you want to replace our health care system
With a government controlled one.

You scare me because you prefer 'wind mills' to responsibly
Capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.

You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose
That lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of
Living in the world.

You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics
Against certain banks and corporations.

You scare me because your own political party shrinks from
Challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.

You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider
Opposing points of view from intelligent people.

You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both
Omnipotent and omniscient.

You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything
You do.

You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the
Limbaugh's, Hannitys, O'Reillys and Becks who offer opposing,
Conservative points of view.

You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.

Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will
Probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

Lou Pritchett

This letter was sent to the NY Times but they never acknowledged it.
Big surprise. Since it hit the Internet, however, it has had over
500,000 hits. Keep it going. All that is necessary for evil to succeed
Is that good men do nothing.. It's happening right now.*

Sometimes, for better or for worse, one parent ends up relocating to a completely new area. Partial family relocations can be excruciating, regardless of whether you are the parent leaving or the parent staying behind. It’s no exaggeration to say that relocations can tear families apart. But they don’t have to. This chapter will provide […]

One of my pet peaves about "new blogger" is the
lack of an updated, compatible blogger button. Well,
I think I've found a solution that works for me.

Did you know that when you click "New Post" & go
to the "New Post" page that the url of this page is
static, instead of dynamic? In other words, it never
changes.

Included in this "New Post" url is your unique blog id #.
For Example, my blog id # is 8755143929966545114. The
url is http://www2.blogger.com/post-create.g? with a blog
id # appended to it.

For Example, mine would look like this:
http://www2.blogger.com/post-create.g?blogID=8755143929966545114
This link with your own blog id will always work.
If you're not already signed in, it'll have you sign in,
but afterwards it'll still take you directly to your blog's
"New Post" page. Nifty, Huh!

Wow, this could change the face of computing!
