The typical U S, household headed by a person age 65 or older has a net worth 47 times greater than a household headed by someone under 35, according to an analysis of census data released Monday. They like to refer to us as senior citizens, old fogjes, geezers, and in some cases dinosaurs. Some of us are "Baby Boomers getting ready to retire. Others have been retired for some time. We walk a lite slower these days and our eyes and hearing are not what they once were. We have worked hard, raised our children, worshiped our God and grown old together. Yes, we are the ones some refer to as being over the hill and that is probably true. But before writing us off completely, there are a few things that need to be taken into consideration. In school we studied English, history, math, and science which enabled us to lead America into the technological age. Most of us remember what outhouses were many of us with firsthand experience. We remember the days of telephone party-lines, 25 cent gasoline, and milk and ice being delivered to our homes. For those of you who don't know what an icebox is, today they are electric and referred to as refrigerators. A few even remember when cars were started with a crank. Yes, we lived those days We are probably considered old fashioned and out-dated by many. But there are a few things you need to remember before completely writing us off. We won World War II, fought in Korea and Viet Nam. We can quote The Pledge of Allegiance, and know where to place our hand while doing so. We wore the uniform of our country with pride and lost many friends on the battlefield. We didn't fight for the Socialist States of America we fought for the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave." We wore different uniforms but carried the same flag. We know the words to the Star Spangled Banner, America, and America the Beautiful by heart, and you may even see some tears running down our cheeks as we sing. We have lived what many of you have only read in history books and we feel no obligation to apologize to anyone for America. Yes, we are old and slow these days but rest assured, we have at least one good fight left in us. We have loved this country, fought for it, and died for it and now we are going to save it. It is our country and nobody is going to take it away from us. We took oaths to defend America against all enemies, foreign and domestic, and that is an oath we plan to keep. There are those who want to destroy this land we love but, like our founders, there is no way we are going to remain silent. It was mostly the young people of this nation who elected Obama and the Democratic Congress. You fall for the "Hope and Change which in reality was nothing but "Hype and Lies You have tasted socialism and seen evil face to face and have found you don't like it after all. You make a lot of noise, but most are all too interested in their careers or "Climbing the Social Ladder to be involved in such mundane things as patriotism and voting. Many of those who fell for the Great Lie" in 2008 are now having buyer's remorse. With all the education we gave you, you didn’t have sense enough to see through the lies and instead drank the Kool-Aid.' Now you're paying the price and complaining about it. No jobs, lost mortgages, higher taxes, and less freedom. This is what you voted for and this is what you got. We entrusted you with the Torch of Liberty and you traded for a paycheck and a fancy house. Well, don't worry youngsters, the Gray-haired Brigade is here, and in 2014 we are going to take back our nation. We may drive a little slower than you would like but we get where we're going, and in 2014 we're going to the polls by the millions This land does not belong to the man in the White House nor to the likes of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, it belongs to "We the People and "We the People" plan to reclaim our land and our freedom. We hope this time you will do a better job of preserving it and passing it along to our grandchildren So the next time you have the chance to say the Pledge of Allegiance, Stand up, put your hand over your heart, honor our country, and thank God for the old geezers of the "Grey-Hared Brigade." Footnote: This is soot on. I am another Gray Haired Geezer signing on. Will circulate this to other Gray Haired Geezers all over this once great county Can you feel the ground shaking??? It's not an earthquake, it is a STAMPEDE.

Fwd: FW: FW: In memory of Van T. Barfoot
Van T. Barfoot diedRemember the guy who wouldn't takethe flag pole down on his Virginiaproperty a while back?You might remember the news story severalmonths ago about a crotchety old man inVirginia who defied his local HomeownersAssociation, and refused to take down theflag pole on his property along with the largeAmerican flag he flew on it.Now we learn who that old man was.On June 15, 1919, Van T. Barfoot was born inEdinburg , Texas . That probably didn't makenews back then.
But twenty-five years later, on May 23, 1944,near Carano , Italy , that same Van T. Barfoot,who had in 1940 enlisted in the U.S. Army, setout alone to flank German machine gunpositions from which gunfire was rainingdown on his fellow soldiers.His advance took him through a minefield buthaving done so, he proceeded to single-handedlytake out three enemy machine gun positions,returning with 17 prisoners of war.
And if that weren't enough for a day's work, he latertook on and destroyed three German tankssent to retake the machine gun positions.
That probably didn't make much news either,given the scope of the war, but it did earnVan T. Barfoot, who retired as a Colonel afteralso serving in Korea and Vietnam , a welldeserved Congressional Medal of Honor.
What did make news...Was his NeighborhoodAssociation's quibble with how the 90-year-oldveteran chose to fly the American flag outsidehis suburban Virginia home. Seems the HOA rulessaid it was OK to fly a flag on a house-mountedbracket, but, for decorum, items such asBarfoot's 21-foot flagpole were "unsuitable".
Van Barfoot had been denied a permit forthe pole, but erected it anyway and was facingcourt action unless he agreed to take it down.
Then the HOA story made national TV,and the Neighborhood Association rethoughtits position and agreed to indulge thisaging hero who dwelt among them.
"In the time I have left", he said to theAssociated Press, "I plan to continueto fly the American flag without interference."
As well he should.
And if any of his neighbors had taken a notion tocontest him further, they might have done well toread his Medal of Honor citation first. Seems itindicates Mr. Van Barfoot wasn't particularlygood at backing down.
Van T. Barfoot's Medal of Honor citation:
This 1944 Medal of Honor citation, listed with theNational Medal of Honor Society,is for Second Lieutenant Van T. Barfoot,157th Infantry, 45th Infantry:If you got this email and didn't pass it on -guess what - you need your butt kickedI sent this to you, because I didn't want MY butt kicked!Do the right thing!
WE ONLY LIVE IN THE LAND OF THE FREE BECAUSE OF THE BRAVE! AND, BECAUSE OF OLD MEN LIKE VAN BARFOOT!

Fwd: America's First Sharia Judge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Subject: New Judge
America's First Sharia Judge!
The first Muslim woman judge - Carolyn Walker - was sworn in as judge of the 7th Municipal District, Brooklyn, choosing to swear her oath of office holding the HOLY QURAN at the Brooklyn Boro Hall on December 10, 2015. It was a historic day! Oddly enough, there was almost no media coverage of this event .
Since the Quran forbids all law but Sharia Law , isn't it reasonable to assume that Her Honor will head the first federally sanctioned SHARIA COURT.Makes one proud, doesn't it?Another little chink in the armor? A small, quiet erosion here and there. No one cares, until it's too late. Step by step by step....this is how American culture will end.Rejoice Obama supporters! Your dream of changing America forever is coming true.
