The Private Sector Experience in Obama's Cabinet

The Ultimate Man-Cave Makeover

Exciting news from the Great Clips Marketing Department–during the upcoming NCAA college football Bowl Championship Series (BCS) games, Great Clips commercials will air nationally during all championship games from Jan. 1-7. The teams playing in the games will be announced in the coming days. In order to maximize the commercials being played, we decided to put together a fun contest to go along with it. We have created the Ultimate Man-Cave Makeover, and will have Great Clips Racing driver Kasey Kahne be the voiceover during the commercials highlighting the contest.

Here are the details of the contest: We are asking consumers to enter via www.greatclips.com – they will be redirected to our Great Clips Facebook page where they can enter the Ultimate Man-Cave Makeover. The idea is to have people take photos of their man-cave and post the photo to our Facebook page. They can also include a short description as to why they think they deserve a new man-cave. We will have the public vote for one week at the end of January on who wins the Ultimate Man-Cave Makeover. The winner will get a room makeover worth $8,000 that can include anything deemed worthy of an ultimate man-cave: a big-screen TV, recliner, new carpet – anything they choose!

That’s not all! While one lucky Great Clips customer is going to win a man-cave makeover, we want your Great Clips team to share in the victory as well. Cheer on your salon staff to promote the Ultimate Man-Cave Makeover to their customers as well as pass along their fun and unique ways of sharing the makeover to gcinews@greatclips.com. Your team could win $250 toward your own post-promotion celebration.

A packet of information will be sent to all salons announcing the promotion next week – the promotion starts online on Dec. 15 and entries will be accepted through Jan. 19. Public voting will take place from Jan. 21-31, with the winner announced Feb. 1. This mailing will include mirror clings and tent cards promoting the Ultimate Man-Cave Makeover. We will also include information on how your salon staff can get involved and win!

Unemployment

For all the Democrats, how have they performed this year?  They control the House of Representatives and the Senate and the White House. They are running the show.

Unemployment now at 10.2%, the highest in 26 years.

 

 

Government's Many Failures Mean - HANDS OFF Health Care!

 

Why government should NOT be anywhere

near health care.

 

To the Congress:

The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775 -

you have had 234 years to get it right; it is broke.

 

 

Social Security was established in 1935 - you

have had 74 years to get it right; it is broke.

 

 

Fannie Mae was established in 1938 - you have

had 71 years to get it right; it is broke.

 

 

The "War on Poverty" started in 1964 - you have

had 45 years to get it right; $1 trillion of our

money has been confiscated and transferred to

"the poor"; it hasn't worked and our entire country

is broke.

 

 

Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965 -

you've had 44 years to get it right; they are broke.

 

 

Freddie Mac was established in 1970 - you

have had 39 years to get it right; it is broke.

 

 

 

 

Trillions of dollars were spent in the massive

political payoffs called TARP, the "Stimulus", the

Omnibus Appropriations Act of 2009... none show

any signs of working, although ACORN appears to

have found a new b***h: the American taxpayer.

 

And finally, to set a new record:

 

"Cash for Clunkers" was established in 2009 and

went broke in 2009! It took good dependable cars

(that were the best some people could afford) and

replaced them with high-priced and less-affordable

cars, mostly Japanese. A good percentage of the

profits went out of the country. And the American

taxpayers take the hit for Congress' generosity

in burning three billion more of our dollars on failed

experiments.

 

 

So with a perfect 100% failure rate and a record

that proves that "services" you shove down our

throats are failing faster and faster, you want

Americans to believe you can be trusted with a

government-run health care system?

20% of our entire economy?

With all due respect,

Are you crazy?

Forward - vote them all out!

Grandma Got Run Over by Obamacare

GreatHairGuy version

 

Grandma got run over by Obamacare
While waiting for the move to eternity
We know that we cannot live forever
But now they expect us all to go early

It all began with a little bump on her knee
Then she slipped and bruised her elbow
They all said she was too far gone
We all knew it was not her time to go

Then they rushed her off to Hospice
Where she could die with some dignity
We all wish we could help her
Trouble is that there’s just no money

Grandma got run over by Obamacare
While waiting for the move to eternity
We know that we cannot live forever
But now they expect us all to go early

Now were all so proud of Grandpa
He's been takin' this so well
See him in there watchin' football
Drinkin' beer and playin' cards with cousin Belle

It’s not the same without Grandma
All the family's dressed in black
And we just can't help but wonder
Who here will have the next heart attack.

Grandma got run over by Obamacare
While waiting for the move to eternity
We know that we cannot live forever
But now they expect us all to go early

Now we’ve all said goodbye to our Grandma
And grandpa now knows his time is coming
Where he too will soon meet his fate
It’s a good thing that we’ve got him numbing

I've warned all my friends and neighbors
Better watch out for yourselves
Never vote for Barackonomics
Where they keep the best health care for themselves

Grandma got run over by Obamacare
While waiting for the move to eternity
We know that we cannot live forever
But now they expect us all to go early

New Preamble to the Constitution

NEW PREAMBLE TO THE CONSTITUTION This is one of the best e-mails I've seen in a long, long time. The following has been attributed to State Representative Mitchell Kaye from GA. This guy should run for President one day... ************************************************************************************************************ 'We the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings of debt-free liberty to ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt ridden, delusional. We hold these truths to be self evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim they require a Bill of NON-Rights.' ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV, or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything. ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be offended. This country is based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc.; but the world is full of idiots, and probably always will be. ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful; do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy. ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and housing. Americans are the most charitable people to be found, and will gladly help anyone in need, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation of another generation of professional couch potatoes. ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice, but from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested in public health care. ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair. ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat, or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen color TV or a life of leisure. ARTICLE VIII: You do not have the right to a job. All of us sure want you to have a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of education and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful.  ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness, which by the way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an over abundance of idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights. ARTICLE X: This is an  English speaking country . We don't care where you are from, English is our language. Learn it or go back to wherever you came from.                     Lastly ARTICLE XI: You do not have the right to change our country's history or heritage. This country was founded on the belief in one true God. And yet, you are given the freedom to believe in any religion, any faith, or no faith at all; with no fear of persecution.The phrase IN GOD WE TRUST is part of our heritage and history, and if you are uncomfortable with it, TOUGH! If you agree, share this with a friend. No, you don't have to, and nothing tragic will befall you if you don't. I just think it's about time common sense is allowed to flourish. Sensible people of the United States speak out because if you do not, who will?

Emergency Room Tip

THE PATCH

The other day, I needed to go to the emergency room.

Not wanting to sit there for 4 hours, I put on my old fatigues and stuck a patch onto the front of my shirt that I had downloaded off the Internet.

When I went into the E.R., I noticed that 3/4 of the people got up and left. I guess they decided that they weren't that sick after all. Cut at least 3 hours off my waiting time.

Here's the patch. Feel free to use it the next time you're in need of quicker emergency service.

It also works at DMV, the Laundromat and long lines at WalMart.

Obama Commencement at ASU

President Barack Obama is scheduled to address Arizona State University’s graduating class in what would be his second visit to Arizona in his first five months as chief executive. 
ASU’s spring commencement ceremony is expected to celebrate the graduation of roughly 8,000 students on the evening of May 13, said Terri Shafer, a university spokeswoman. 
ASU President Michael Crow praised Obama for his political progress and decision to speak to the university’s students. 
“The progressive leadership he has already displayed and the values he espouses are a great example for our students and the extended community that surrounds us,” Crow said in a prepared statement. 

ASU President Michael Crow, I am a part of the "extended community" that surrounds the university and have been for over four decades.  I have undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University and also worked at the institution for many years.  President Obama has displayed little "leadership" and certainly is not a "great example" for my extended community nor the students, one of them my daughter.  Obama's policies are no doubt progressive, however, they are already bringing economic turmoil to the country.  How can you possibly believe that creating trillions of dollars of debt that "our students" will inherit can possibly be a "great example"?

It's one thing to show the appropriate courtesy to the Office of the President, quite another to endorse an agenda that will bankrupt the country and rob generations with reckless spending.

Catching Wild Pigs

A chemistry professor in a large college had some
exchange students in the class. One day while the class was in
the lab the Professor noticed one young man (exchange student) who
kept rubbing his back, and stretching as if his back hurt.

The professor asked the young man what was the matter. The
student told him he had a bullet lodged in his back. He had been
shot while fighting communists in his native country who were
trying to overthrow his country’s government and install a new
communist government.

In the midst of his story he looked at the professor and
asked a strange question. He asked, ‘Do you know how to catch
wild pigs?’

The professor thought it was a joke and asked for the punch
line. The young man said this was no joke. ‘You catch wild pigs
by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the
ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to eat the
free corn. When they are used to coming every day, you put a
fence down one side of the place where they are used to coming.
When they get used to the fence, they begin to eat the corn
again and you put up another side of the fence. They get used to
that and start to eat again. You continue until you have all
four sides of the fence up with a gate in The last side. The
pigs, who are used to the free corn, start to come through the
gate to eat, you slam the gate on them and catch the whole herd.
Suddenly the wild pigs have lost their freedom. They run
around and around inside the fence, but they are caught. Soon
they go back to eating the free corn. They are so used to it
that they have forgotten how to forage in the woods for
themselves, so they accept their captivity.
The young man then told the professor that is exactly what
he sees happening to America . The government keeps pushing us
toward socialism and keeps spreading the free corn out in the
form of programs such as supplemental income, tax credit for
unearned income, tobacco subsidies, dairy subsidies, payments
not to plant crops (CRP), welfare, medicine, drugs, etc.. While we
continually lose our freedoms — just a little at a time.
One should always remember: There is no such thing as a free
lunch! Also, a politician will never provide a service for you
cheaper than you can do it yourself.
Also, if you see that all of this wonderful government
‘help’ is a problem confronting the future of democracy in
America , you might want to send this on to your friends. If you
think the free ride is essential to your way of life then you
will probably delete this email, but God help you when the gate
slams shut!
In this ‘very important’ election year, listen closely to
what the candidates are promising you !!
Just maybe you will be able to tell who is about to slam
the gate on America
‘A government big enough to give you everything you want, is
big enough to take away everything you have.’

- Thomas Jefferson
