WHY is “The Police Protective Fund” in Virginia phoning my cell phone? Are they phoning to make me aware that it is dangerous to use a cell phone while driving? Who knows, as when I attempt to return their calls, I get an answering machine that tells me to leave a message in their “full” mailbox.

This is the number they ring me from: 804 225-9092.

If this is another one of those police scams to get me to donate to their police union, I am NOT buying. I pay enough taxes to support my various police departments. In addition to paying their police salaries and benefits, why would I be stupid enough to pay their unions to lobby me, the taxpayer, for more pay and benefits. The automobile unions have already driven the car industry into the dirt. What next, police departments? Many of those who are phoned end up donating, as they assume the caller to be a local police officer and they feel intimidated.

This phone number has been reported to “Who Called US?,”where other victims of telephone harassment report that their identity is “the polprotect” and that they use the following numbers to harass the public they are supposed to serve and protect: 804-225-9092, 800-225-9092 and 217-483-9596.

The Police Protective Fund has a web site where they identify themselves as a part of PoliceUSA.com. Check out that Charity Navigator gives them a “ZERO” rating and lists the salaries of their leaders. Here is what the Better Business Bureau reports about the Police Protective Fund:

“On July 24, 2007, the Missouri attorney general’s office filed a lawsuit in St. Louis Circuit Court against Police Protective Fund (PPF) to stop misleading and harassing calls from the organization. According to the Missouri attorney general’s office, telemarketers working for PPF have made numerous calls into Missouri, representing that donations will help the families of law enforcement officers who die in the line of duty through PPF’s $10,000 “Line of Duty Death Benefits” program” (BBB.org).

Don’t bother reporting them to the National Do Not Call Registry. They do not cover “charities, political organizations, and telephone surveyors.” Cute, eh? At least Montgomery County, Maryland has issued a warning to its citizens about this “police charity scam,” as they label them.

Who is RYAN J. TAYLOR? He Harasses the Elderly Using Paetec Communications, INC of Cliffside, New Jersey and Red Rock Communications of South Dakota to make ROBO CALLS (robocalls)!

Day in and day out, continually, I am being harassed in Virginia on my telephone by Paetec Communications, INC. of New Jersey. The telephone calls that interrupt my peace are recordings warning me that my automobile warranty is about to expire. Each caller ID shows a different telephone number so that even when I block the last number called, Paetec Communications, INC continues to get through with a brand new number.

Here are reports from others about this same last phone number that came to me: Who Called Us from (201) 917-7312? “19 calls reported from this number. According to 8 reports the identity of this caller is Red Rock Communications.”

Red Rock Communications is a despicable company that sells phony caller ID names and numbers to telemarketers - usually scammers - so you cannot see who is really telephoning your private telephone. Their website is redrockcommunications.net. The software they provide to their telemarketers enables scammers to call repeatedly from the same telephone by automatically changing its identification (Caller ID). Even though you block Anonymous Calls, and also the number of the last harassment call from Paetec Communications, Inc., Red Rock Communications enables them to call you again, and again with a new Caller ID each time. I am receiving about ten calls a week. What a piece of SLIMEY work is this Ryan J. Taylor and his Red Rock Communications of South Dakota!

“I’d rather address somebody that doesn’t know what they are talking about, than somebody to just reiterate what people believe.” ~~Congressman Jim Moran to his Virginia Constituents

Dumb Constituents of Jim Moran

This is what you get with one party rule. You get a United States congressman, such as James “Jim” Moran of Virginia, who yells “absolutely not” at his own constitutes when they ask if the Democrats in Congress deserve “any” of the blame for the nation’s economic woes. You get a congressman who stays in office until death does he depart, or until he decides to bequeath his office to his younger brother. You get a congressman, who, when reminded that the Democrats have had total control of the Congress, says the economy is 100% the fault of the Republicans. You get a representative to congress, Jim Moran of Virginia, who refuses to take a question from his constituent who asked about Democrat control of Congress, shouting instead “I will address this. But I’d rather address somebody that doesn’t know what they are talking about, than somebody to just reiterate what people believe.”

Okay people, it’s hard to believe, but this man was just reelected to office overwhelmingly. That is why Representative Jim Moran is so arrogant. Virginians, this is what you just elected to represent and serve you in the United States Congress. In other words, Virginians, you get the government you deserve, so stop complaining, and follow the Democrat Party’s admonition and elect Moran’s brother as Governor to follow in the steps of Thomas Jefferson.

Welcome to the Commune of Virginia! As “beloved” Virginia Congressman Jim Moran said, his state of Virginia has proved that capitalism “doesn’t work in the long run.” Hear the words of Congressman Jim Moran, Fall 2008, as he condemns the workers of Virginia and the nation for their astonishingly high productivity these last eight years, because these productive workers were not willing to share the fruits of their labors, according to Moran. American workers have not been abiding by the guidelines of Marx and Engel’s “The Communist Manifesto,” so that is about to change, with the “Change Election.”

“We have been guided by a Republican administration who believes in this simplistic notion that people who have wealth are entitled to keep it and they have an antipathy towards means of redistributing wealth.” –Congressman Jim Moran, Democrat of Virginia. He continued with “It (capitalism) doesn’t work in the long run.”

Everyone knows that the Commonwealth of Virginia has turned into a Blue State, as it went strongly for Barack Obama in the Presidential Election. This statement by the Virginia solon is the proof that the Commonwealth of Virginia is now the Commune of Virginia - FIRST in the Nation. Virginia’s celebrated Congressman Jim Moran from the affluent and politically powerful suburb of Communist Northern Virginia has explained that his rich constituents are ready and raring to “spread their wealth around.” No, they are not GREEDY, as is that Joe the Plumber guy in Ohio. Congratulations Virginia! Lead the way.

Yes, we’re ALL communist/socialists now, Virginia.

“Capital is, therefore, not a personal, it is a social power. When, therefore, capital is converted into common property, into the property of all members of society, personal property is not thereby transformed into social property. It is only the social character of the property that is changed. It loses its class-character.” ~~Karl Marx, “The Communist Manifesto.”

Now Drop Dead! We Don’t Want Any More of Your Dirty Coal. ~~Barack Obama

Welcome Bankruptcy! Virginia, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana - Vote OBAMA for NO MORE COAL!

Barack Obama to Coal Industry - “We will bankrupt you!” Depression, Soup Kitchens to follow. Don’t worry! The new taxes on the rich will pay for your welfare checks.

Obama to the American Consumer “My policies will cause energy prices to skyrocket.” How is it that Obama is way ahead in the polls in those states? Must be the dead voting. Why would anyone want to bankrupt the coal industry in America, since fifty percent of our energy comes from coal? America is a coal-rich nation. According to Sarah Palin, we have more coal than there is oil in the Middle East.

You can thank Michelle Malkin and Gateway Pundit for posting this. No thanks to San Francisco and the corrupt mainstream “in the toilet tank for Obama” media who have kept it hidden since January 2008. CNN is now calling it “old news.”

Obama Bragged to San Francisco Audience That He Will Bankrupt Coal Industry! That was after he explained to liberal San Franciscans about why those quaint, provincial, gun-clinging, bible-thumping Pennsylvanians are ignorant rubes. However you voters have not been the least concerned with any other radical Obama promises, like when he told NPR how he was going to redistribute Americans’ wealth (Obama’s Redistribution Plans), why would you care that he is going to destroy the coal industry that turns on fifty percent of the lights in your houses? Jobs, Jobs, who needs a Job when we have Al Obama to save us all from want?

Don’t dare ask an energy expert like Governor Palin about how to solve the energy crisis, as she is only a woman, not a heaven-sent Messiah. Obama plans to raise prices to change American’s bad behavior - like bad behavior of using electricity and gasoline. Obama said “Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.” The Obama Nation sounds like a bleak and dark place, however, the Messiah assures us that “darkness” can be a good thing. Maybe we will be saved by John McCain.

West Virginia Shocked
Obama Spells Disaster for Ohio

How Are We Racists? Let Us Count the Ways.

Barack Obama has successfully used the race card handed down from friends Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton to inhibit all criticism of him. Late night comics and the mainstream press have largely cooperated with him because no one wants to be labeled a RACIST. During this presidential campaign almost any criticism of candidate Obama brings up charges of racism, even against his opposition’s VP candidate, whose main role in past presidential campaigns has been to attack the opposing Presidential candidate. So…, I thought I would document a few of the criticisms of Obama that I’ve encountered that have resulted in scurrilous and unfounded charges of RACISM.

In 1990, my state and cradle of the Confederacy, Virginia, was the first in the nation to elect an African American as governor. I supported and voted for his Republican opponent, however I have no memory of gratuitous charges of racism against myself or other whites who criticised or did not support Douglas Wilder. Was that because Douglas Wilder was a native Virginian and a gentleman who did not pal around with the likes of the Reverends Jeremiah Wright, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton? If not, why the difference now in 2008, where every utterance of criticism of Barack Obama is translated into a racist slur by his campaign and supporters? Perhaps we are seeing the implementation of the teachings of Obama’s mentors and allies, William Ayers, Saul Alinsky, and A.C.O.R.N.

• Barack Obama himself started playing the race card against John McCain by responding to a McCain ad knocking him as a world celebrity, after his celebrated trips to court European non-voters. For that criticism of himself, Barack Obama accused John McCain’s campaign of race-baiting. During the North Carolina primary Barack Obama told voters that John McCain would “play on our fears” and “exploit our differences.” By June, Obama was accusing any and all Republicans running against him for saying: “He’s young and inexperienced, and he’s got a funny name. And did I mention he’s black?” The fact that NO Republican uttered those words mattered not at all to Obama.
• United States Congressman Barney Frank says you are a RACIST if you believe that people with lousy credit should NOT receive taxpayer-guaranteed mortgages. “BOSTON (AP) - Rep. Barney Frank said Monday that Republican criticism of Democrats over the nation’s housing crisis is a veiled attack on the poor that’s racially motivated. ” Representative Barney Frank Cries Rascism!
• When Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin brought up Democrat Barack Obama’s relationship with 1960s-era radical Bill Ayers who wished he had bombed more after the September 11th attacks, the Associated Press (as in Mainstream Media) labeled her attack as RACISM. What she pointed out to the voters was that Obama is “someone who sees America as ‘imperfect enough’ to work with a former domestic terrorist who targeted his own country,” and that Obama “pals around with terrorists.” The AP’s Douglass Daniel headlined “Palin’s Words Have Racist Tinge,” as he explained that although Ayers is white, terrorists today are people of color, hence logic follows that Governor Palin is a RACIST.
• Whoopie Goldberg on “The View” while speaking to John McCain, implied that he was a RACIST because he believes in strictly interpreting the United States Constitution. She accused him of trying to make her a slave, as after all, enslavement of black people is what the Constitution is all about, according to Whoppie.
• “Elitist” is now a racist slur, according to Obama supporters. When Hillary Clinton supporter, Lynn Forester de Rothschild, endorsed John McCain for President, she said she rejected Barack Obama as “I feel like he is an elitist.” The Obama Campaign and Obama supporters promptly labeled Ms. Rothschild as a RACIST, as they claim that “elitist” is another one of those code words that means “uppity” that means you must be very careful of criticizing Barack Obama, as you too could be called a RACIST. That is … unless you are yourself an anointed one awaiting “The One.” See “Latte Liberal - A Racist Epithet?”
• For the first time in history at a Presidential Candidates debate, almost everything that one candidate (John McCain) said to or about his opposing candidate (Obama) has been labeled a racist slur by Obama supporters. From comments at the Wall Street Journal Online we find that John McCain’s saying that Obama knows little about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac is actually code for “You ignorant Black boy–you don’t know anything!” Here’s another one - “That one!”It too was a racist slur by McCain, according to the Obama campaign. Listen and hear the unforgivable racism: John McCain Is A Racist Because He said ‘That one … and Me.’ OMG - It’s almost as racist as saying Obama’s middle name, bequeathed him by his own parents.
• A prominent Obama supporter charges that Governor Palin’s use of the terms “Hockey Mom” and “Joe Sixpack” are code words for white people, hence McCain’s VP candidate choice is engaging in racism, of course. The Obamamania media has added some additional words that are used by RACISTS as code to mean white people: “Wal-mart moms, soccer moms, NASCAR dads and small town America.” We await word from the RACIST police to know if “hard-working” and “main street” are also code words hiding RACIST thoughts.”
• The cable news network MSNBC and its star reporter Keith Olbermann have called anyone and everyone, including Republican members of Congress, as “RACISTS” if they dare mention the activities of ACORN and Obama, or even politically criticize Barack Obama for almost anything.
• Believe it or not, there are not only RACIST code words, there are RACIST code colors too. According to Obama supporters at “Democratic Underground,” when a candidate goes abroad in the land giving political speeches, the wearing of white garments is a “code” message meant to incite RACISTS to violence. American clergy can still wear white robes before their congregations without being called out as RACISTS, but that is bound to change as soon as President Obama accomplishes his “transcendence” of the racial divide. As all Americans begin to strive for non-offensiveness to those of sensitive sensibilities, white apparal is expected to promptly go out of fashion.
• Yesterday, civil rights leader, Congressman John Lewis of Georgia, condemned Senator John McCain for “sowing the seeds of hatred and division” and accused McCain of inciting potential violence for criticizing Obama. Lewis then connected John McCain to segregationist Alabama governor George Wallace, and to the 1963 church bombing which killed four little black girls, even though John McCain was in service to his nation at the time, wearing the uniform of the United States Navy. (Washington Post, 12 October 2008)
• Democrat Congressman John Murtha called his entire home base of western Pennsylvania a bunch of RACISTS because they are not supporting Barack Obama: “There is no question that western Pennsylvania is a RACIST area.” These same RACISTS have elected Congressman Murtha to the United States Congress seventeen times! (Western Pennsylvanians are Racists)

Today, there is only one solution, to NOT being labeled a Racist. We must all support Barack Obama, put an “Obama & Biden” bumper sticker on our cars, and VOTE for Obama. Then, just maybe, we can be saved from being condemned as RACISTS. If we do not do that, then we are RACISTs and when the Obamaniacs come into power, we will be hauled off to “Re-education Camps” taught by Weatherman turned college professor Bill Ayers. There we WILL learn the proper “Non Racist and Unoffensive” language of the Obama Regime.

One wonders why Barack Obama is running against the Republican Vice Presidential nominee. A few days ago Governor Sarah Palin jokingly compared herself with a pit-bull wearing lipstick. Since then, Barack Obama and his campaign have been using the word lipstick in various allusions to his female opponent. Today, Obama went over the line, and it will cost him dearly.

“The Community Organizer and the Governor.”

“The time has come,” the Organizer said,
“To talk of many things:
Of-governors-and inexperience-
Of John McCain-and kings-
And why my polls are nose-diving-
And whether women are pigs.”

His supporters say he was describing the Republican’s new mantra of “change” when he made the “lipstick on a pig” comment. Perhaps he was, but his audience undoubtedly took the comment to be a reference to Sarah Palin as they uproariously laughed. It was quite stunning that Virginians would so disgracefully guffaw upon hearing an American woman governor described as a pig, but they did. Even if Senator Barack Obama did not intend to vulgarly insult his political opponent that way, Obama’s Virginia supporters were overjoyed that he was doing that, and he did not chide them. Sadly, Virginians are becoming as coarse and mean as the rest of the country, it seems.

I find it a bit difficult to give Obama the benefit of the doubt in his use of “lipstick on a pig” comment. It is because Barack Obama is an urban guy. He has pretty much lived in metropolitan areas since he came to the United States from Indonesia some years ago. In normal slang, “You put lipstick on a pig, it’s still a pig” means dressing something up to appear to be something it is not. However, In urban slang “Lipstick on a Pig” has a much coarser meaning. It refers to “ugly broads, when they put on a skirt and some lipstick and well, they still look like the same digusting pig.”

“You can put lipstick on a pig,” said Obama, as he paused for the laugh lines. He never chastised his supporters for their laughter at his allusion to a woman as a pig. There is no doubt that the lipstick reference was meant to apply to Sarah Palin. The audience knew it and Barack Obama knew it. And, sadly for the Obama campaign, the women of America knew it too.

The Old Rugged Cross

They shall not grow old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them. ~~from “For the Fallen” by Laurence Binyon

Nikki Giovanni’s “We Are Virginia Tech” speech.

IT’S ALL ABOUT ME!
The depraved and sick creature who is responsible for this mayhem exemplified the extreme of the “ME” generation. “It is all about me, me, me.” Did he have any concern for his own parents’ suffering because of his unspeakable behavior? Did he have a care in his soul about the lives of his fellow students and faculty and the grief that their families would endure? No, No, No! “IT’S ALL ABOUT ME!”

I was quite moved by the simple beauty of the U.S. Air Force’s new memorial in Arlington, Virginia that commemorates the service of those who have flown off into the ‘wild blue yonder’ in service to their nation.

Off We Go Into The Wild Blue Yonder Slide Show

From Kerfuffles’ Sunday in DC

This amateur video of a serene chapel portends the future. The Christian cross has become so offensive and frightening to those who live freely in a land that was built by the struggles and toils of Christian people, that it must be closeted and locked away. That is correct; a Christian cross in Virginia can no longer be tolerated to stand in a Christian chapel. The video was made recently at a public institution of higher learning at Williamsburg, Virginia, the College of William and Mary, after its president, Gene Nichol, ordered the cross removed to make the chapel less “faith-specific.”

I heard the clanking of the old keys as the cross was locked inside the crypt, and I thought of the scene of Christ’s burial when the huge boulder was rolled against his tomb. Jesus was feared then, even in death, and the ‘Man of Peace and Love’ is still feared two thousand years later.

Luke 23:52, 53 “… went unto Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. And he took it down, and wrapped it in linen, and laid it in a sepulchre that was hewn in stone, wherein never man before was laid.“.
Matthew 27:59, 60, 61 “And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed. And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre. ”
Mark 15:46-47 “And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre. And Mary Magdalene and Mary [the mother] of Joses beheld where he was laid.“
