Bwahaha! Post Office bungles again. New stamp for Maya Angelu

One of Maya Angelou's final tweets was: "Listen to yourself and in that quietude, you might hear the voice of God." May God bless her soul. ...

My friend sent me this and thought I'd share. There was a man who worked for the Post Office whose job was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses.One day, a letter came addressed in a shaky handwriting to God with no actual address. He thought he should open it to see what it was about.The letter read:Dear God,I am an 83 year old widow, living on a very small pension.Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had $100 in it, which was all the money I had un ...

Terrorists don't want their pictures up. It's offensive. Hear the whoosh? link ...

Hello, trucks-as-weapons-of-mass-destruction. Whether it's terrorism, racism or violent crime of any kind, we MUST NEVER elect officials who are so SUPERFICIAL as to think that "guns" are the problem, that we don't have enough gun laws, and that "more and more and more gun laws" are therefore the solution. What you are looking at with such cretins is someone who wishes to create a subservient population that is at the mercy of the terrorist (reason for more government), the criminal ...

If liberals ever hope to rise again, they will grok this: 1. You think you are superior. You are not. 2. You think we are stupid. We are not. 3. You love globalism. We look around the world and don't see anything we wish to emulate. 4. You do not believe America is the best country in the world. We do. 5. You think "resisting Trump" is a winning strategy. It is a losing strategy - in fact it isn't a strategy at all. (Do y ...

Just looking for places where we have to show our picture ID in order to obtain something. I live in a small community where we chat with the precinct workers about things like "how is your grandma doing since she had surgery" or "the football team is starting out pretty good this year, aren't they" and yet they require me to hand them my picture ID when I vote. Obviously, if I didn't have one, they would know who I am and probably even know what color my house is, but that isn' ...

“The lessons of history … show conclusively that continued dependence upon relief induces a spiritual and moral disintegration fundamentally destructive to the national fiber. To dole out relief in this way is to administer a narcotic, a subtle destroyer of the human spirit.” These searing words about Depression-era welfare are from Franklin Roosevelt’s 1935 State of the Union Address. FDR feared this self-reliant people might come to depend permanently upon government ...

MARTINSVILLE, Ohio — With food stamp use at record highs and climbing every month, a program once scorned as a failed welfare scheme now helps feed one in eight Americans and one in four children. It has grown so rapidly in places so diverse that it is becoming nearly as ordinary as the groceries it buys. More than 36 million people use inconspicuous plastic cards for staples like milk, bread and cheese, swiping them at counters in blighted cities and in suburbs pocked with foreclosure si ...

According to a new study by the non-partisan group Stateline, not only is the rate of Food Stamp fraud only at about 3.2 percent nationwide, it’s actually gone down since the Bush Recession. In fact, thanks to a set of initiates undertaken at both the state and federal levels, food stamp under- or over-payments are at the lowest they’ve been since SNAP’s original “Food Stamp Program” predecessor came into being in 1939. Food stamp fraud has toppled by almost two thirds. In fact, ...

Well, unable to get to church due to a knee joint flare (not mine) and playing nurse, I noticed others were asking below for alternative solutions to food stamp fraud other than Scott Walker's expensive and absurd plan to overhaul the EBT system to restrict types of food and drug test recipients. So how about this? Ask the food stamp recipients to turn in their monthly grocery receipts to their caseworker for review. Give them 3 strikes or they're out. Not only does ...

decrease in the number of people receiving food stamps as the improving economy lifts many recipients into new jobs and frees them from the fear of going hungry. The number of Georgians getting food stamps has dropped by 300,000 from 1.9 million in April 2013 to 1.6 million. That decrease of 16 percent in the federally funded program saves taxpayers tens of millions of dollars monthly. That may sound great, but it’s also fueling a passionate debate about which people should get food stamps ...

Of late I see an alarming increase is welfare-bashing "journalism." I see it in my local news, they actually try to chase around the food stamp "cheats" and catch them out. Lazy journalism, IMHO. Why don't you expose the real cheats, the white collar criminals whose fraud is really hurting the system and this country? My pay has halved within 3 years, almost to the point I am eligible for some of these programs, not that I want to be. But how can someone in our job not have the sligh ...

Food Stamp Recipients More Likely To Be Obese, Study FindsWASHINGTON -- Food stamp recipients are more likely to be obese than the general population, according to new research from the federal government. Most Americans are heavier than they should be, of course, but a U.S. Department of Agriculture study delving into National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data from 2007 through 2010 found Americans on food stamps were more likely to be obese than other groups -- including ...

Went to my GYN a few months ago, given slip of paper for a follow up mammogram, supposed to be in the month of October. Got that. Wrote down in my monthly planner and also had the slip from the doctor. About the 5th or 6th of the month had a person calling, while I was working, to notify me of the October appointment. I explained I was working, on production, did not have the time to talk and she was insisting that I make the appointment right then. I again explained and getting antsy, I just hu ...

Newt Gingrich and "the food stamp president" He didn't call Obama a "strapping young buck," but his slur is coded racism (and not very Catholic) just the same By Joan Walsh AP Newt Gingrich doubled down on his clever new slur against President Obama as "the food stamp president." He tried the line in a Friday speech to the Georgia Republican convention, and he used it again on "Meet the Press Sunday." It's a short hop from Gingrich's slur to Ronald Reagan's attac ...

An all-expense-paid vacation to a tropical island goes to the person with the best suggestion for corralling all the cords in my office. It's not a new problem by any means, but it's bothering me more than ever. You know what I mean. I recently moved to a new house and made the mistake of not marking which cord went to which item. My (much more patient) teenage son hooked everything back up, bless his heart. Now if I can just figure out a way to cover all ...

Maybe this isn't nepotism if she's not getting paid? What are her qualifications? Oh right, she used to advise her father in business and on The Apprentice. And she is the president's daughter. She gets a security clearance and the gear to go with it? They are running the White House more and more like a family business, and we are all going to pay for it. ...

"The lights were low" - no, this is not the beginning of a romance novel, it's how it was when I walked into this doctor's family practice clinic. I felt really uptight - I don't have insurance, and was expecting the worst, some zinger of a bill at the very end, some fee, something they hadn't told me about. The front office was kind of cramped, I admit, the phone ringing, scheduling...but then this calm relaxed medical assistant led me to the room, took my blood press ...

There was a private meeting in his office in KY but it was recorded and Mother Jones publicized the tapes. Somebody may be in BIG TROUBLE over this. It's illegal to tape someone without their knowledge in KY. He also stated that they attacked his wife's ethnicity last week. Of course, if it was done by the other side, they'll probably get a slap on the wrist if anything. ********** Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell’s reelection campaign asked t ...

The chair I am currently using for work is so uncomfortable. It's one of those cheap ones from Wal-Mart where the seat area is so short that it only goes to my mid thigh so my legs hang down and they fall asleep. I really need a new chair! Suggestions for a comfortable one but don't have to spend a fortunate?! ...

President Trump has been in office only two days, and all the butthurt liberals are calling for ABUSING THE JUSTICE SYSTEM by impeachment. Guess what, liberals? You LOST! Get over it. You can't just impeach the President of the United States because you disagree with his political views and/or policies. A successful IMPEACHMENT requires: * Commission of a HIGH CRIME * Evidence beyond a reasonable doubt of commission of that high crime * A conviction I hope this ...
