obama "document dump"has a two day gap! Anyone here remember the 16 hour gap in the Nixon tapes?



http://dailycaller.com/2013/05/16/white-houses-benghazi-email-dump-shows-critical-two-day-gap-cia-objection/

That's right folks, "the most transparent administration (read regime) in the history of America" seems to have misplaced a couple of emails from ?

If you are old enough to remember the Nixon era with the resulting Watergate tapes you will remember that Richard Nixon resigned over a 16 hour lapse in the then White House recordings of ALL of his conversations.

It seemed that Mr. Nixon saw the possibility of impeachment hearings, and did not wish to put the Nation or his family through the resulting firestorm should that have happened. What did he do you ask? Well he "covered up" a break in of the democrat National office at the Watergate Hotel (no deaths or injuries by the way.)

What has obama done by comparison? Well it seems that he went to bed to be fresh for a campaign fund raised in Las Vegas, and left hillary clinton and others to watch in "real time" the death of four of our fellow citizens!

obama and his minions then proceed to hatch a plan to tell us it was over a video that was anti Muslim, heck they even arrested the producer of the video! We all now know that was a lie, and we know that for eight hours the four who were murdered in Benghazi pleaded for help, but the help was told th STAND DOWN!

Will obama resign as Nixon did? No he will not because his narcissism will not allow it! We have a group of regime people who have lied, cajoled and obfuscated the truth to keep this person in office, why? You Tell me, because to me he is a stench in the nostrils of honest men everywhere, and deserves to be held in far lower esteem that Richard Milhous Nixon ever was or will be!

What to do to right the ship, and bring back trust in Washington? Simple, impeach obama arrest and indict clinton and all others who participated in this foul lie, and that will be a start!

By the way, eric holder who gave Mexican drug lords guns under the "fast and furious" program said "no special prosecutor will be appointed!" Talk about flying in your face, he must appoint one NOW, or join the rest in a "perp walk!"

May 10, 1910, Evelyn Mae Ford is born in Cleveland, Ohio, and is celebrating her 103rd. Birthday today!





That's right folks my Mother is now 103 years old! Amazing as it may seem these day's she follows her own diet and has had very little reason to visit Doctors or hospitals in her lifetime.

She and my Father were married for 72 years (he passed at age 100) and during that time they enjoyed a life of dedication to family and service to their God and their Country.

At the present she resides in the Park view Nursing Facility, Sandusky, Ohio (near my Fathers grave site on Middle Bass Island) and is not only able to be ambulatory, but can and will cary on a conversation on most any subject you wish to put forth.

Needless to say we are all very proud of her, and I only wish I could join my Sister and Brother for the celebration there today!

Happy Birthday Mom, and the way your going, I may join you there as a resident before you know it!

Up date on the condition of the lovely Linda and the broken femur.




Linda has been moved from St. Clair Hospital to the rehab wing of Bethesda Dilworth where she will undergo physical therapy for a couple of weeks to learn to maneuver with the latest medical devices that we hope will insure no more falls.

In the mean time the "independent" will be cleaning, moving furniture, throw rugs, and other assorted pitfalls that may prove hazardous to her getting around the house.

I now have the distinct dis-pleasure of being a "bachelor" for a bit, and just think, I have no place to go, and nothing to do except shuttle back and forth to "the home." That is what 47 years of wedded bliss will do for you. But, that said, I am including the following old "drinking song" for those of you who are still able to do the "pub crawling."

Homeland security buying large amount of ammunition, WHY?




http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2013/04/25/reps-challenge-dhs-ammo-buys-say-agency-using-1000-more-rounds-per-person-than/



Well there you have it folks, DHS is stock piling a rather large mount of ammunition to use on ?

First they want to take way your right to defend yourselves, now they stock pile enough ammo to remove every person in the Republic three times over.

You tell me, what the heck is going on in this Country today?

Posted as it came to me from a good and honest friend who wanted a venue to speak his mind, so......

Subject: Fw: CHICAGO ILLINOIS A DEMOCRATIC STATE... of "WEAK MIND"..... and School Kids







OBAMA GOES Bravo Sierra WHEN HIS GUN REGISTRATION BILLS FAILS IN THE DEMOCRATIC
SENATE. HE NEEDS TO LOOK IN HIS BACK YARD !


Newtown, CT


Nineteen of 20 Newtown children are white.

All of a sudden the 2nd amendment should be
repealed or altered.

Chicago children are mostly black.

The media is silent about Chicago violence.


WHY?


Chicago: 446 school age children shot last year with strongest gun
laws in country the media is silent


The cesspool known as Chicago probably has the toughest gun laws in
the country, yet despite all the shootings, murders, and bloodshed,
you never hear a peep about this from the corrupt state run media.


In Chicago , there have been 446 school age children shot in leftist
utopia run by Rahm Emanuel.


62 school aged children have actually been killed by crazed nuts in
Chicago so far this year.


So why isn't this news worthy?

Is it because it would embarrass those anti second amendment nuts
who brag about Chicago's tough gun laws?

Is it because most of the kids who were shot and killed were minorities?

Or is it because the corrupt media doesn't want to show Chicago
in a bad light?


THE LIST OF MURDERED SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN IN 2013

The Political Leaders in Illinois;


All Democrats!


President: Barack Hussein Obama
Senator: Dick Durbin House
Representative: Jesse Jackson Jr.
Governor: Pat Quinn
House leader: Mike Madigan
Atty. Gen.: Lisa Madigan (daughter of Mike)
Mayor: Rahm Emanuel


Chicago school system is rated one of the worst in the country.


State pension fund $78 Billion in debt, worst in country.


Cook County ( Chicago ) sales tax 10.25% - highest in country.


A culture of corruption that would make a Louisiana politician blush with envy.


Can't blame Republicans;

There aren't any!


So the real reason the Press is Silent, is because there is no one they can blame for it . . .

Missle day in Nortk Korea?

http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/04/14/us-korea-north-usa-idUSBRE93C01Z20130414


Well here you have the full result of appeasement as practiced by the Clinton administration. We now have a "short man syndrome" nut with the full MERV technology as give to his buddy by the Clinton administration to shut pop up the last time.

Does anyone really believe that these 3 people could have come up with this on their own? As you may or may not know, they make some of the cell phones we use on a daily basis, you know the ones that drop your call while your parked under a cell tower.

However things have gotten worse as we now have HANOI john kerry over there about to give away the farm as he did during the Vietnam War.

The pathetic part of this is the fact that the world has seen this before in the form of a buffoon named Neville Chamberlain and his famous waving of the treaty signed by Heir Hitler. Remember, "peace in our time?" Well he said it and less than four months later the Brit's were being bombed by no less that Das Fuhrer.

The people that support this idiocy must all be voted out in the mid-term elections while we still have a Republic to be proud of!

SORRY FOR THE ENFORCED ABSENSE!

No I did not rejoin my ship, or squadron for the coming festivities with Kim Jon UN and the merry band of clown suited morons from North Korea, no nothing as simple as that I fear.

On Monday afternoon I was hauled of by Ambulance to BJC with a fever of 104 degrees F.
It seems I had Pneumonia, and really didn't feel all that sick until the flood gates
opened and convulsions set in.

Now as you may know we have lived here for 44 years, and in all that time we have needed the Fire Department three times for minor issues, so this was a first hand look at a full blown "rescue."

Response time was excellent, the level of patient care far exceed BJC by both the Paramedics, and Abbot, and I even got a Police officer to stand by to assist if needed.

Were lucky to live and work in a place like Crestwood where you can rest assured that the skills of the response team are exemplary.

My thanks and my appreciation go to the men and women who really do keep us safe here in Crestwood who work long hours under All conditions so we can enjoy the life style we choose with out fear.

How am I doing? Well I came home yesterday, and much to the consternation of my legion of enemies, it looks as though I will make it.

Mr. Bill Schelinski responds to the comments made below.

NOTE, AND THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT! I will not allow ANY comments on this thread (reference Mr. Schelinski from this time stamp) on) UNLESS you sign your name to your post. Mr. Schelinski has graciously agreed to answer the questions that have been placed "anonymously" below, and if you wish to respond you will grant him the courtesy of identifying yourself, or I will delete your post.

The Bill of Rights and the Constitution are very clear on this. He has the right under the fourth amendment to "confront his accuser," and that means you sign you post, or my I-phone, my I-pad, and yes the tower will light up and you will be gone, so now that we all know the rules, I give you Mr. Bill Schelinski.



"To Mr. Dan Hogan et. al. I can only answer what I know. I and my immediate family (which was my mother and sister, I wasn't married at the time) were there in the court house that day prepared to go to trial and you weren't. I don't know where you came up with your information on anyone beating anyone, but I do know there are no ambulance (EMT), police, or hospital reports that show any evidence of any kind of physical violence done on any person in this case. I do know that photographs were taken, but I was never allowed to see them. I'm also sorry that this is not a perfect world and you seem to think that justice is in fact blind. It isn't. The justice system doesn't always serve the right purpose. It makes deals, careers advance, and reputations rise. I believe that unless things have changed recently, that in the State of Illinois, County of Cook, that you can't just pull up a person's records. Cook County doesn't have anything like Casenet or whatever it is called here in Missouri. How did someone make any kind of connection with me in St. Louis today and Cook County Illinois almost 2 decades ago? It begs questions. Rather than fixate on my self-admitted past with your limited knowledge of it, I would look to the present.


The City of Crestwood presented me a "packet" of information that included amongst other things (a ward map for example) a legal "Notice & Affidavit for Persons Desiring to be a Candidate for Municipal Office." It was the first document given to me to read and sign. I read the requirements that are as follows: "No person shall be certified as a candidate for municipal office, nor shall such person's name appear on the ballot as a candidate for such office, who shall be in arrears for any unpaid city taxes or municipal user fees on the last day to file a declaration of candidacy for the office." Now please notice that there is NO MENTION OF ANY PAST CONVICTIONS. I even asked the clerk, "That's it?", and the answer was to the affirmative. This document was witnessed and notarized by the City Clerk. In addition, I was given a copy of a memo from Jeff Schlink, Mayor, and Office of the City Clerk that contains "Excerpts from the Crestwood Municipal Code:" Which includes Chapter 2 Article II Board of Alderman, Sec. 2-21. Qualifications. "No person shall be an alderman unless he is at least twenty-one (21) years of age, a citizen of the United States, an inhabitant and resident in the city for one (1) year next preceding his election, a qualified voter of the city and a resident of the ward from which elected for at least (90) days prior to the date of election. No person's name shall be placed upon the ballot who, at the time of filing for candidacy for alderman, is in the arrears for any city taxes. (Ord. No 10, [subsection or paragraph] 1, 8-23-49; Code 1965, [subsection or paragraph] 3.01; Ord. No. 1759, [subsection]1,10-9-77." Again please note there is NO MENTION of prior conviction.


Having read and signed a legal affidavit, and the above memo quoting the Municipal Code, why would I think that there would be any other language that would include requirements not stated in those documents? I know that there are city officials that have never even read the Charter. I wasn't trying to pull one over on anyone. There is a clear inconsistency between a legal document I signed, the Municipal Code and the Charter. Please explain that for me.


To address a separate matter, I have never come out and said that I am against the re-development of the mall property. On my website as well as quotes in the Call, and literature I have handed out, I have said we need to limit or eliminate the dependence on TIF, not once mentioning the "Mall" in particular. I have stated that it is not possible for the city to do its due diligence with a proposal from a developer that doesn't list ONE tenant for Phase I, and makes no mention of what it is going to do with Phase II. I am asking for the chance for anyone to be able to look at the proposal in an objective, measurable way, compare it to the viability and future revenues that will be forgone during the TIF period and ask how every other taxing authority is going to be able to survive without those future revenues from that property? They will come to us and try to tax us separately.

Last, I would strongly advise that language, accusations, interpretations, call it what you will, that I have read in various blogs about this matter that physical violence was used, that what I was charged with amounts to "attempted murder" might border on slander, defamation of character, character assassination and/or libel. The facts are, the facts were never tried in a court of law, or by a jury of my peers. Any evidence is hearsay evidence. I was never required to do jail time, was never required to attend any "Anger Management" counseling and my probation contained terms that had me do community service by shelving books in a public library. If I were in fact so dangerous does THAT make sense to you?"

"Signed,"

Bill Schelinski (via email.)

Town Hall Meeting March 20, 2013 at White Cliff rec. center, 7:00 PM. Come and hear plan X, Y, or Z from Centrum Properties.




Yes indeed folks, were going to be treated to a magic show put on by the good folks from Chicago, Centrum Properties. Did I say a magic show? Well yes I did because it is going to take that and more for Centrum to come up with a viable working plan that does not include them paying themselves back $17 Million that they put out, and then "flip" the property leaving us with zero!

Can they do it? Will we hear the real story minus the smoke and mirrors? Will they have at least ONE prospective tenant to hang their hat on? Answer, minus a whole lot of money from us and the school district, I really doubt it, and so should you.

Please remember that if these ideas are a sure thing, they would be doing them on their own without OUR money now wouldn't they. When you listen to all the wonderful things they are going to do, remember that they are bailing out of projects in Florida, and Chicago, so why won't they do it to Crestwood? (Don't believe me? Look it up on Google.)

This is one meeting that I will try my best to attend as I haven't seen a magic show in over 60 years, and I do so want to see the rabbit come out of the hat again, they do have a rabbit, don't they?
