About me
My husband and I have been married for nearly 39 years. We have 3 adult (kinda') children and 5 awesome grandchildren.

My Christian faith and tennis are large in my life. For the last 16 yrs. I've been the caregiver of my MIL, my Dad, my Grandchildren, and now my Mother. It has been hard and the internet allows my mind to escape for a while.
Why I use Clipmarks
There is always something interesting to read. It provides a great way to communicate ideas and opinions and learn new things.

 Oh my. They should have paid her to stay away; it would have been a lot cheaper. Man! these people are expensive. They need to stay *home* a little more. Geeez...remember when we were irritated by the Clinton's world traveling and multi-speeches near the end of their term?

by jatfla  6-29-2009    1
 Amen to the last statement of the clip. I'm sick of all of them. Only within the last few years have I begun to realize how corrupted Washington (and everyone, I guess) truly is. I'll admit to being naive because I was raised to be honest...or suffer the consequences. If other high-profile names can be prosecuted and sent to prison...why not these?? And I don't care about their Party affiliation.

Gay Duke U. Official Attempts to Sell 5-Year-Old son for Sex.
jatfla
by jatfla  6-29-2009    16
 The tone of the article is that there has been no media coverage of this...until now. Yes, the "director" is a homosexual and I don't believe for an instant that this is not a common practice. Daughter lives next to a family whose son has adopted a 4 yr old little girl. It's scary. But WHOEVER violates a child deserves to be outed (no matter their sex, race or orientation) and severely prosecuted. We allow liars, frauds, thieves...all manner of crooks to represent us in Congress; but in my opinion the wounding and violation of children is as low as it gets. Mandoff gets 100+ yrs. for his crimes; what do pedophiles get? Released back into the community and their names/pictures printed on the internet. :~(

Pelosi Won't Give Public a Week to Review Text of HC Bill....

by jatfla  6-29-2009   
 We are to accept a pig-in-a-poke from these people...the very people who are to be OUR representatives! Are any of them representing YOU? If this thing continues, our health care system is going to be sooooo screwed up that no one...not Doctors, Labs, Hospitals, Insurance Companies, etc...are going to know what to do. Complete confusion. If the bill is currently this long, with certain parts not included, and other parts to be added later, can you imagine the volumes our healthcare providers are going to have to digest? This Congress & Administration are bringing chaos.

Iranian police clash with up to 3,000 protesters
jatfla
by jatfla  6-28-2009   
 Can't be officially verified because of the crack down on the media there. But from another article posted today by the AP: "Obama officials say talks with Iran still possible". From within that article: "Both Rice and David Axelrod, Obama's top adviser, said Ahmadinejad doesn't appear to have the final say over Iran's foreign policy. Axelrod, dismissing Ahmadinejad's harsh language against the U.S. and Obama as "bloviations," said being open to talks with Iran is not an effort to reward the country. "We are looking to ... sit down and talk to the Iranians and offer them two paths. And one brings them back into the community of nations, and the other has some very stark consequences," . The Iranians they would have to be speaking to are the clerics and they are more fanatical than even Ahmadinejad. (what babes)

 I thought our Country was in it's worth financial crisis since the '30s. I thought we were suppose to cut back on extravagances. All those people (the Administration, Congress & families, etc) sure are having fun with our money. (oh, I forgot, they're printing more) They all got raises and free health care coverage, pensions for life..... Talk about the haves/entitled; and then there is us.

"....Most Americans Already Happy with [Healthcare] Coverage
jatfla
by jatfla  6-24-2009   
 The first few years of our marriage (with small children) healthcare insurance coverage was difficult but manageable because of responsible financial discipline. Over the last 30 yrs. we have been very happy & felt secure, cared for by our doctors. Trips to the ER with elderly parents have been a challenge but I do not support this "national Health Care" proposal that is being *quickly* shoved upon us all. Sadly my daughter does not have health care coverage, but has managed to meet her needs & those of her children with assistance.

Aloha you all...still like the 'hope & change" you voted for? Ya'll can "hope" that NK "changes" it's mind or these threats are stopped dead in their tracks.

"Obama "Very Concerned" At Ayatollah's Comments
jatfla
by jatfla  6-19-2009    10
 He's concerned about "some of the tenor" and "tone"...I guess he hasn't been watching the *action* going on there. Hasn't he been aware that the Ayatollah's influence has been a "concern" of some in America and most in Israel for quite some time? Isn't he just the King of diplomatic speak? Reminds me of the rhetoric we hear out of the UN...resulting in nothing but more abuse and oppression of people. The election was a farce; everyone knows it...even Obama. He belongs to that other half of America.

 Krauthammer notes that this revolution "would mark a decisive blow to Islamist radicalism, of which Iran today is not just standard-bearer and model, but financier and arms supplier." He notes that our President doesn't want to be seen as "meddling"...the very "president who fancies himself the restorer of America's moral standing in the world."

Our Historically Challenged President
jatfla
by jatfla  6-11-2009    5
 FTA: "With all due respect to our president, this assertion is again not fully accurate. The only thing that ended slavery in the United States was the Civil War, which saw some 600,000 Americans — the vast majority of them white — lost in a violent struggle to ensure that nearly half the country would not remain a slave-owning society. Also, the massive urban riots of the 1960s and 1970s were certainly violent." Selective historical interpretation. Probably learned it at those Ivy League colleges and from Rev. Wright.

 No-name Nice gains an audience in the Media for his disgusting comments about Gov. Palin. Letterman...now *Mr. Nice*. Aren't we so proud of the denigration of conversation within our public forums? These pitiful people gain their publicity by their crude & disgusting remarks. Sadly the Media considers it newsworthy. How the mighty has fallen when it's *funny* to so grossly attack a female conservative.
