THE LAW IS THE LAW

So if the US government determines that it is against the law for the words "under God" to be on our money,

then, so be it.

And if that same government decides that the "Ten Commandments" are not to be used in or on a government installation,

then, so be it.

And since they already have prohibited any prayer in the schools, on which they deem their authority,

then so be it.

I say, "so be it," because I would like to be a law abiding US citizen.

I say, "so be it," because I would like to think that smarter people than I are in positions to make good decisions.

I would like to think that those people have the American Publics' best interests at heart.

BUT, YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE I'D LIKE?

Since we can't pray to God, can't Trust in God and cannot Post His Commandments in Government buildings,

I don't believe the Government and it's employees should participate in the Easter and Christmas celebrations which honor the God that our government is eliminating from many facets of American life

I'd like my mail delivered on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving & Easter.

After all, it's just another day.

I'd like the US Supreme Court to be in session on Christmas, Good Friday, Thanksgiving & Easter as well as Sundays. After all, it's just another day.

I'd like the Senate and the House of Representatives to not have to worry about getting home for the "Christmas Break." After all it's just another day.

I'm thinking that a lot of my taxpayer dollars could be saved, if all government offices & services would work on Christmas, Good Friday & Easter.

It shouldn't cost any overtime since those would be just like any other day of the week to a government that is trying to be "politically correct."

In fact....

I think that our government should work on Sundays (initially set aside for worshipping God...) because, after all, our government says that it should be just another day....

What do you all think????

If this idea gets to enough people, maybe our elected officials will stop giving in to the minority opinions and begin, once again, to represent the 'majority' of ALL of the American people. Give us the help needed to keep you in our country!

'Amen' and 'Amen'

These are definitely things I never thought about but from now on, I will be sure to questions those, in government, who support these changes.

At the top, it says "I hope this makes its way around the USA several times over!!!!!"

Let's see that it does.

Half Truths

The following was an email from Bottomline Secrets:

The Latest Scams & Rip-Offs:
Self-Defense Strategies

O verzealous debt collectors, phony insurance salespeople and greedy stockbrokers urging customers to put their homes at risk are among the latest rip-offs to watch out for…

“ZOMBIE” DEBT
Kelly Rote
Money Management Int’l

Beware of collection agencies trying to collect “zombie” debt — unpaid consumer bills that creditors already have written off as losses. Debt collectors buy this charged-off debt for just pennies on the dollar and then aggressively squeeze consumers to pay it.

Self-defense: If a collector contacts you about a debt that you don’t recognize, don’t provide any information.

Insist on proof of the debt — the original credit agreement and billing statements.

If you’re convinced that you do owe the money and your state’s statute of limitations on the debt has not expired, consider settling with the agency for a percentage of the amount owed. State statutes of limitations are listed at www.creditinfocenter.com (click on “Rebuild/Repair”).

Also review your credit reports from Experian (888-397-3742, www.experian.com), Equifax (800-685-1111, www.equifax.com) and TransUnion (800-916-8800, www.transunion.com). If a zombie collector has reported the debt delinquency to the credit bureaus after ignoring your request for proof, it is in violation of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. File a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission, and notify each credit bureau.

Commnets:

Sounds like good advice, doesn’t it?

Some additional facts: Credit agreements and billing statements are not proof of debt. They are proof a an agreement (with someone, possibly) and proof of an account.

In addition, pursuant to a recent appeals court decision, none of the FDCPA applies to attorneys. They have been deemed expempt or above the law. So, these collection agencies can ignore the law, hire an attorney, and sue you. Then, they have the judge, not you, determine if you owe the debt or not.

Guess who wins?

Remember, judges are just attorneys that wear dresses at work.
