Your stimulus dollars at work:
“...<a href="http://thehill.com/homenews/senate/71169-gop-points-out-pure-waste-in-stimulus" rel="nofollow">Stimulus Waste</a><br /><br /><br />Your stimulus dollars at work:<br /><br /><i>“Two hundred and seventeen billion dollars of this money is out the door and at least 15 percent of it is pure waste,” said Coburn…<br /><br />Half a million dollars went to Arizona State University to study the genetic makeup of ants to determine distinctive roles in ant colonies; $450,000 went to the University of Arizona to study the division of labor in ant colonies… <br /> <br />“I had no idea that so much expertise concerning ants resided in the major universities of my state,” said McCain. “I say that with an element of pride, but I’m not sure it's deserving of these taxpayers’ dollars.”<br /><br />The senators also noted that researchers at Penn State University received $1.57 million to search for fossils in Argentina and that a liberal-leaning theater in Minnesota, <b>In the Heart of the Beast, named after a famous quote by leftist leader Che Guevara, received $100,000 for socially conscious puppet shows…</b><br /><br />The National Institutes of Health got $219,000 in funds to <b>study whether female college students are more likely to “hook up” after drinking alcohol…”</b></i><br /><br />Duh.

As I "...Will be thrown from this plane!" As I "led" him around me to take his seat, the fellow Texan grabbed him by the back of his neck and his waist and headed out with him. I then grabbed the 2nd man and said, "You WILL do the same!" He protested but adrenaline was flowing now and he was going to go. As I escorted him forward the plane doors open and 3 TSA<br /><br /> agents and 4 police officers entered. Me and my new Texan friend were told to cease and desist for they had this under control. I was happy to oblige actually. <br /><br /> There was some commotion in the back, but within moments, all 11 were escorted off the plane. They then unloaded their luggage.<br /><br /> We talked about the occurrence and were in disbelief that it had happen, when suddenly, the door open again and on walked all 11!! Stone faced, eyes front and robotic (the only way I can<br /><br /> describe it). The stewardess from the back had been in tears and when she saw this, she was having NONE of it! Being that I was up front, I heard and saw the whole ordeal. She told the TSA agent there was NO WAY she was staying on the plane with these men. The agent told her they had searched them and were going to go through their luggage with a fine tooth<br /><br /> comb and that they were allowed to proceed to Houston. The captain and co-captain came out and told the agent "we and our crew will not fly this plane!" After a word or two, the entire crew, luggage in tow, left the plane. 5 minutes later, the cabin door opened again and a whole new crew walked on.<br /><br /> Again...this is where I had had enough!!! I got up and asked "What the hell is going on!?!?" I was told to take my seat. They were sorry for the delay and I would be home shortly. I said<br /><br /> "I'm getting off this plane". The stewardess sternly told me that she could not allow me to get off. (now I'm mad!) I said "I am a grown man who bought this ticket, whose time is mine with a<br /><br /> family at home and I am going through that door, or I'm going through that door with you under my arm!! But I am going through that door!!" And I heard a voice behind me say "so am I". Then everyone behind us started to get up and say the same. Within 2 minutes, I was walking off that plane where I was met with more agents who asked me to write a statement. I had 5<br /><br /> hours to kill at this point so why the hell not. Due to the amount of people who got off that flight, it was cancelled. I was supposed to be in Houston at 6pm. I got here at 12:30am.<br /><br /> Look up the date, Nov. 17, 2009, Flight #297, Atlanta to Houston.<br /><br /> If this wasn't a dry run, I don't know what one is. The terrorists wanted to see how TSA would handle it, how the crew would handle it, and how the passengers would handle it. <br /><br /> I'm telling this to you because I want you to know. The threat is real. I saw it with my own eyes.<br /><br /> Tedd Petruna<br /><br /> http://homelandsecurityus.com/ ?p=3312<br /><br /> http://oldnfo.blogspot.com/2009/11/testing-testing.html<br /><br /> http://lit4ever.org/revivalforum/index.php?topic=19331.0<br /><br /> http://www.meetup.com/WeSurroundThemGathering/boards/thread/8165396samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11856051164644278989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21297199.post-36662933059183208442009-12-08T23:05:06.519-05:002009-12-08T23:05:06.519-05:00Sent: Monday, December 07, 2009 6:13 AM

(JSC-DX12)[RAYTHEON TECHNICAL SERVICES COMPANY]<br /><br /> Subject: Long story short....<br /><br /> One week ago, I went to Ohio on business and to see my father. On Tuesday, November the 17th, I returned home. If you read the papers the 18th you may have seen a blurb where a<br /><br /> AirTran flight was cancelled from Atlanta to Houston due to a man who refused to get off of his cell phone before takeoff. It was on Fox News Channel. <br /><br /> This was NOT what happened.<br /><br /> I was in 1st class coming home. 11 Muslim men got on the plane in full attire. 2 sat in 1st class and the rest peppered themselves throughout the plane all the way to<br /><br /> the back. As the plane taxied to the runway the stewardesses gave the safety spiel we are all so familiar with. At that time, one of the men got on his cell and<br /><br /> called one of his companions in the back and proceeded to talk on the phone in Arabic very loudly and very aggressively. This took the 1st stewardess out of the<br /><br /> picture for she repeatedly told the man that cell phones were not permitted at the time. He ignored her as if she was not there.<br /><br /> The 2nd man who answered the phone did the same and this took out the 2nd stewardess. In the back of the plane at this time, 2 younger Muslims, one in the back aisle, and<br /><br /> one in front of him, window, began to show footage of a porno they had taped the night before, and were very loud about it. Now..they are only permitted to do this<br /><br /> prior to Jihad. If a Muslim man goes into a strip club, he has to view the woman via mirror with his back to her. (don't ask me..I don't make the rules, but I've studied) <br /><br /> The 3rd stewardess informed them that they were not to have electronic devices on at this time. To which one of the men said "shut up infidel dog!" She went to take the camcorder and<br /><br /> he began to scream in her face in Arabic. At that exact moment, all 11 of them got up and started to walk the cabin. This is where I had had enough! I got up and started to the back where I heard a voice behind me from another Texan twice my size say "I got your back." I grabbed the man who had been on the phone by the arm and said "you WILL go sit down or yousamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11856051164644278989noreply@blogger.com
