April 15th Nationwide Strike

There is a nation wide movement to protest taxes scheduled to happen on April 15th year at your local post office.

I started reading about this several months ago when I followed a link that said something about are taxes legal? I was interested in finding out about it cause I have never really thought about if income tax is legal I just assumed that it is. As it turns out it may not be legal.

I am going to post a link to a video in my profile message box about the strike which is being asked that you not go to work on that day and also it has been suggested that you with draw your money from the bank for a few days.

It is very interesting times right now many people are waking up to the fact that the government has way more power and control than it needs to have. Our rights to privacy, bear arms, and even freedom of speach are being trampled and we do not have to take it. Please consider doing some research and you will see what is beginning to alarm many citizens of this great nation of ours.

Many people from other countries are keeping watch on what the people here are doing and how they are reacting to the New World Order beginning to take over here. Europe has already been pretty much taken over already. Most of America seems to still be asleep concerning this "one world government" where the elite rich will rule and the rest of us will be much less than we are now. There is so much going on and Bush and other government dogs are counting on the people remaining unaware and unconcerned.

Thanks for reading this.

Ya'll it's important that you know your rights are being trampled I found this prayer for America:

America's Prayer

By Pastor Joe Wright
April 6, 2007

The following is a prayer given by Minister Joe Wright who was asked to open the new session of the Kansas Senate. Everyone was expecting the usual generalities, but this is what they heard:

"Heavenly Father . . .

We come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance.

We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil -- good' but that is exactly what we have done.

We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values.

We have ridiculed the absolute truth of Your Word and called it Pluralism.

We have worshipped other gods and called it multiculturalism.

We have endorsed perversion and called it alternative lifestyle.

We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery.

We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.

We have killed our unborn and called it choice.

We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable.

We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem.

We have abused power and called it politics.

We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition.

We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of speech and expression.

We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our Forefathers and called it enlightenment.

Search us, Oh, God, And know our hearts today;

Cleanse us from every sin and set us free.

Guide and bless these men and women who have been sent to direct us to the center of Your will, to open ask it in the name of Your Son, the living Savior, Jesus Christ.

Amen!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The response was immediate. A number of legislators walked out during the prayer, in protest.

In 6 short weeks, Central Christian Church, where Rev. Wright is pastor, logged more than 5,000 phone calls with only 47 of those calls responding negatively. The church is now receiving international requests for copies of this prayer from India, Africa and Korea.

Commentator Paul Harvey aired this prayer on his radio program, "The Rest of the Story," and received a larger response to this program than any other he has ever aired.

With the Lord's help, may this prayer sweep over our Nation and wholeheartedly become our desire so that we again can be called "one nation under God."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~

I don't want to get you mad, but if that is the Pastor Joe Wright you're talking about that I think it is, I believe he also said we deserved what we got on 9/11. If not, my apologies.

I do not know if Pastor Wright said this or not. I would not doubt that there are people who think that the USA deserved the 9-11 attack other wise it would not have happened.

The American citizens no more deserved 9-11 than do the Iraqi citizens deserve to live in a war zone. But I don't believe in using fear tactics to convince people here that we need to be in a war. We are giving up our freedoms out of fear to me that is way more scary.

But, I do believe that we were bombed on 9-11 because we were over there bombing them. That does not make it right in my opinion. Congress did not declare this war we are in and it is a fact that we have even been offered Bin Ladden by the Talley Ban to stop the war....so it does not seem that 9-11 is the real reason we are over there.

I do believe 9-11 was meant to be a wake-up call by the perpetrators to bring awareness to the fact that we have been over there for many years killing folks.

I do not believe that any human on earth can hide from the CIA for very long and not be found.

I feel a lot of compassion for Iraq and I think we ought to stop killing those people and I also hate that our young ones are over there being killed. I just think war does not make sense.

There is a protest every year on April 15th.
I see thousands of people gathering at the post office every year. Each one walks up to the little window one at a time and I am sure that the guy behind the window is telling them what is what.

It looks more like sheep going to shearer to me(((best)))) than protest. I think the deal is if they were protesting they would not go inside and mail the thing off...


(((ccgirl))) it does seem that this Pastor is the one who said America deserved the 9-11 attacks and a few other choice words as well.

But it does seem like we have only looked at what they have done to us without us being very considerate of what we have done to them.

We in recovery know that the less we like hearing something most likely the truer it is...I think America needs a lot of recovery

See? I'm glad I apologized ahead of time. I'm thinking of Senator Obama's pastor and his name is Jeremiah Wright. I guess I could never be a fact checker for a career, lol!

Why exactly do you feel a need to apologize ? I for one am not offended at all. I would not bring up contraversal topics if I could not take the heat...

i heard theories that the "new world order" concept is inspired by the Illuminati/Freemasons. These occult originated underground organizations goal is world domination of not just governments but people as well. One government, no religion. Just Google new world order for some pretty interesting concepts.

It is my understanding that the plan is that USA, Canada and, Mexico are to become one nation. The New World Order was started by Bush Sr. and so far it is not a question if it will happen but, when will this happen. I am sure it will happen if the people do not rise up and and take the country back. I hope we do it soon...

nobody wants to deal with the government anymore, after all they can keep doing business as usual so how does it affect them? (Thats how most people truly think) Ask a person who the president was 10 years ago and 70% of the time, they probably wont get it right.

Well if we want our country back we will have to take it back.

I know many people are still unaware that we are moving away from the Constitution and are losing our freedoms.

They just take it an inch at a time and it goes unnoticed by most in this country. Pray that nothing happens that would give Bush a reason to enact martial law.

Per snopes...

What was quoted is almost what he said (pretty close)
What was said is a prayer he borrowed from another who used it before him.
Also per snopes... It was said back in 1996 and before the legislators not the Senate of KS.

Still it was a good prayer of truth all the same.


1996 till now is a lot of years so who knows if he is still the same person with the same ideals?
I know I have changed a huge amount over the same amount of time.
