How well do you know the U.S Presidents?

I do not try and present myself as an expert on the Presidents of these United States.  I am a student of History and enjoy particularly, the History of the United States of America.  This blessed country has a history as rich, if not as long, as any European nation. I was given the following trivia by one of my instructors.  It is fun, interesting and some stuff many people do not know.  See how many you may know.  Find the answers you don't.  It is NOT useless information, and who knows, you may just be able to win a trivia game one day.  One thing is for sure; what you learn while looking up these answers will be invaluable, mark my word! GOOD LUCK! Who was the only President to hold a Phd? When I died, though I had been an important Founding Father, even the Quakers refused to bury me. I disowned my only son because he did not support the American Revolutionary cause. Some have called me the “Martha Stewart” ...

On The Frontier of Freedom(again)

February 11, 1988 Thank you very much. It's great to be here tonight, and I'm delighted to see so many old friends. And now let's get right to it. First, there's the INF treaty. How do you think I felt when Gorbachev called a week and a half ago and asked me if our first group of on-site inspectors could be the Denver Broncos' pass defense? (Laughter.) And then along came the House vote on Contra aid -- I felt so terrible, I nearly called Dan Reeves and John Elway to tell them what a rough week I'd had. But seriously, while the Denver Broncos are all terrific athletes and people, each one of us has to congratulate the Washington Redskins. Believe me, the House action on the Contra vote was a missed chance at a victory for peace in Central America. It's great to know there are some people in Washington who play to win. And believe me, I'll be getting back to that topic in a few minutes. By the way, something odd happened just before I got here tonig...

President Reagan's Second Inaugural Address

Monday, January 21st, 1985 Senator Mathias, Chief Justice Burger, Vice President Bush, Speaker O'Neill, Senator Dole, Reverend Clergy, members of my family and friends, and my fellow citizens: This day has been made brighter with the presence here of one who, for a time, has been absent--Senator John Stennis. God bless you and welcome back. There is, however, one who is not with us today: Representative Gillis Long of Louisiana left us last night. I wonder if we could all join in a moment of silent prayer. (Moment of silent prayer.) Amen. There are no words adequate to express my thanks for the great honor that you have bestowed on me. I will do my utmost to be deserving of your trust. This is, as Senator Mathias told us, the 50th time that we, the people, have celebrated this historic occasion. When the first President, George Washington, placed his hand upon the Bible, he stood less than a single day's journey by horseback from raw, untamed wilderness. There were ...

Ronald Reagan: A great example!

This was a real American who understood the responsibility of his office and the real role of government.  Things wer not perfect under him but it was 180 degrees from where we are now!  We need another Ronald Reagan!  This may be long, but it is worth watching again or for the first time if you never have seen it before. Ronald Reagan for President!

Did he lie? You bet he did!

A Congressman shouts "you lie" during Obama's speech. Was he right? Congressman Joe Wilson (R-SC) issued an apology after his outburst, "you lie," toward President Obama during his health care speech to Congress on Wednesday. "I let my emotions get the best of me," Wilson said in a statement. "I extend sincere apologies to the president." We commend Wilson for his quick humility. But questions remain: Did Obama tell lies during the speech? Was Wilson right after all? And why doesn't Obama apologize just as quickly for calling conservatives liars? In their fact-checking, the press confirmed FIVE WHOPPERS told by the President himself: OBAMA LIE #1 : " No federal dollars will be used to fund abortions ." THE TRUTH: The Capps Amendment to HR 3200 has a Section 4B that reads: "Abortions for Which Public Funding Is Allowed. -- The services described in this subparagraph are abortions for which the expenditure of Feder...

Obama's 10 Commandments.

After watching President Obama these last six months and even leading up to the Presidency, it is obvious that our illustrious President lives and governs according to his own "ten commandments". And these are not what you learned at Church on Sunday. Following each commandment is a link taking you to the source and back up to these claims, right from Obama himself. Enjoy: I. Thou shalt have no God in America, except for me. For we are no longer a Christian nation and, after all, I am the chosen One. (And like God, I do not have a birth certificate.) SOURCE II. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, unless it is my face carved on Mt. Rushmore. SOURCE III. Thou shalt not utter my middle name in vain (or in public). Only I can say Barack Hussein Obama. SOURCE IV. Remember tax day, April 15th, to keep it holy. SOURCE V. Honour thy father and thy mother until they are too old and sick to care for. They will cost our public-funded health-care system too much money. SOUR...

The truth is scarier than fiction

Please watch the wolves who are not even wearing sheeps clothing. They are telling us and have been telling us exactly what they were planning on and what their designs for socialized Healthcare are. Wake up! and then wake up your neighbors! This is not good for anyone but those with the political strings. Do not walk blindly into your waiting cell. Fight this now before it is too late!

First quarter report........

First quarter report on our President Obama... This is mind-boggling: Observations on the President's Early Days: 1. Offended the Queen of England . 2. Bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia . 3. Praised the Marxist Daniel Ortega. 4. Kissed Hugo Chavez on the cheek. 5. Endorsed the Socialist Evo Morales of Bolivia . 6. Announced we would meet with Iranians with no pre-conditions. 7. Gave away billions to AIG also without pre-conditions. 8. Expanded the bailouts. 9. Insulted everyone who has ever loved a Special Olympian. 10. Doubled our national debt/quadrupled spending. 11. Announced a termination of the space defense system the day after the North Koreans launched an ICBM. 12. Despite the urgings of his own CIA director and the prior 4 CIA directors, released information on intelligence gathering. 13. Accepted without public comment the fact that five of his cabinet members cheated on their taxes and two others withdrew after they couldn't take the heat. 14. Appointe...

Apologists

----by Patrick J Buchanan ------- For 50 minutes, Obama sat mute, as a Marxist thug from Nicaragua delivered his diatribe, charging America with a century of terrorist aggression in Central America. After Daniel Ortega finished spitting in our face, accusing us of inhumanity toward Fidel Castro's Cuba, Obama was asked his thoughts. "I thought it was 50 minutes long. That's what I thought." Hillary Clinton was asked to comment: "I thought the cultural performance was fascinating," she cooed. Pressed again on Ortega's vitriol, Hillary replied: "To have those first-class Caribbean entertainers all on one stage and to see how much was done in such a small amount of space. I was overwhelmed." Thus the nation that won the Cold War, contained the cancer of Castroism in Cuba, liberated Grenada, blocked communist takeovers of Guatemala and the Dominican Republic, and poured scores of billions in aid into this region was left undefended by its own leader...

A Time For Choosing!

The following is a stump speech for Barry Goldwater given by Ronald Wilson Reagan in 1964. It still gives me goosebumps. Who will be the Reagan of OUR day? Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you and good evening. The sponsor has been identified, but unlike most television programs, the performer hasn't been provided with a script. As a matter of fact, I have been permitted to choose my own words and discuss my own ideas regarding the choice that we face in the next few weeks. I have spent most of my life as a Democrat. I recently have seen fit to follow another course. I believe that the issues confronting us cross party lines. Now, one side in this campaign has been telling us that the issues of this election are the maintenance of peace and prosperity. The line has been used, "We've never had it so good." But I have an uncomfortable feeling that this prosperity isn't something on which we can base our hopes for the future. No nation in history has ever surviv...
