LETS TALK FDA AND THE DRUG PREMOLINE (CYLERT), AND OTHER POLITICS


ROSA PARKS
(FEBUARY 4, 1913 - OCTOBER 24, 2005)
Farewell


TAX CUT FOR THE WELL TO DO

Yes there will be a $70 billion dollar tax cut for the rich starting January 1, 2006. Here's a break down of how the rich will be very happy with the President and the Congress.
97% tax cut will go to households making $200,000 dollars.
54% tax cut will go to the millionaires.

If you fit into this tax cut then you have got it made and yes you should vote this same Congress back to do your bids next year.



DAVIS-BACON ACT BACK

The Davis-Bacon act has been reinstated and will go back into effect on November 8. This will help skilled workers in New Orleans and keep illegal immigrants from going to work in the Gulf area for low wages.

Now what do the Construction industry do now....Are the Conservitive Congress hot about this....will this inflate the cost of reconstrution....Will it just keep so much money out of the hands of the construction industry and some into the pockets of the people who really need it....



FDA AND THE DRUG PREMOLINE (CYLERT)

Premoline a drug used to treat attention-deficit (hyper-activity) disorder has been withdrawn because it has been associated with death and liver failure resulting in transpalants. Be very careful because the FDA is not recalling the drug, it is still being sold and will be sold until the remaining stock is sold out....can you believe this....the FDA is allowing pharmacies to sell out their stock...Oh boy....folks be careful.

THE SENATE FINANCE COMMITTE

The Senate Finance Committe passed a $10 billion dollar cut from Medicare and Medicaid over the next five years. The good news, $6 billion dollars are saved that would have went to pharmaceutical companies.


WELL, PAT ROBERTSON THE FOUNDER OF AMERICAN CENTER FOR LAW AND JUSTICE WANT HAVE TO USE ALL OF THOSE MILLIONS ON TV ADS , BECAUSE MISS MIERS WILL NOT BE OUT THERE ......YOUR WISH HAS COME TRUE.....HOW CAN THIS PRESIDENT CONTINUE TO BE RULED BY EVANGELICAL CHRISTANS AND RIGHT WING CONSERVITIVES....WHAT A COUNTRY WE LIVE IN TODAY.

HALLIBURTON AGAIN-OIL FOR FOOD OPENS UP A CAN OF WORMS FOR UNITED STATES-



HALLIBURTON AGAIN

According to Sen. Mary Landerieu, federal agents detained 100 immigrants working for a subsidary of Halliburton on Hurrican Katrina recovery projects. Other sources say there were 10 illegal immigrants detained by the Immigration and Custody Enforcement. The workers were setting up tent city at Belle Chase Naval Air Station outside New Orleans. Halliburton was awarded a no bid contract to fix several military bases in the Gulf Coast region.

Why dose this Administration keep awarding Halliburton no bid contracts with the tax payer dollars?....... Why did our President wave the Davis Bacon Act?......It seems to me........We should have learned our lesson with Halliburton........What's going on here.....see full story www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/nation/3406591



OIL-FOR-FOOD OPENS UP A CAN OF WORMS FOR UNITED STATES

Oscar Wyatt is Former chairman of Coastal Corp. and owner of Wyatt Foreign Companies. He was arrested in Huston, Texas for obtaining oil under the United Nations oil-for-food program. It is stated that he and others paid millions of dollars in secret kick backs to Saddam Hussein's regime in Irag.

Midway Trading Reston an oil trading company pleaded guilty to grand larceny in the UN oil-for-food scandal and will pay a $250,000 dollars fine. They paid $440,000 dollars in kick backs to the Iragi offices.

In 1996 the oil-for-food program was launched by the United Nations to help Irag coup with the UN Sanctions. Money paid for crude oil was suppose to be for humanitarian goods.

It is believed that $10.2 billion dollars through kick backs and other illegal sales was packeted by Saddams government.


CHURCH AND MOVIES


There's a new movie called World at War starring Louis Gossett Jr. Now if you would like to see this movie, I suggest you get with the Evangelical Christians. You see the only place to view this movie is in church, yes in church. I heard that the movie is about Mr. Gossett as President facing a World Government headed by the Antichrist.

There's also a website called Ironweed , which for $14.95 a month, you can receive movies in the mail just like Blockbuster. The good thing about Ironweed is that once you receive the movie, you don't have to return it. Ironweed prefer that you start some type of club to invite other christians to view the movie.

There are over 330,000 churches in America and between the sale of DVD's, music, christian books, apparel and gifts exceeding $4 billion dollars a year, I'm telling you we have a Evangelical Christian society and a regular folks society in the United States.

If you would like to get on this train the site is www.ironweedfilms.com

LETS TALK TAX CUT AND THE REPUBICANS, NEWS HEALTH, AND COMPUTER INFORMATION

WHAT'S GOING ON AMERICA!!!!

If you call yourself a Republican and you are middle class or poor, then you have a problem.
Just why are you a Republican and what has the GOP done for you lately........I'll tell you.

The Republican Congress wants a $70 billion dollar tax cut for the rich. Are you rich?
The Republican Congress wants a $35 -$50 billion dollar 2006 budget cut for the following:

Healthcare for the poor
Food Stamps
Farm Support
State Children Health Insurance Program
Legal Service to Low Income
Increase cost of Student Loan
Rase Tax on Mortage
Child Nutrition Program Earned Income and Child Tax Credit
Unemployment Insurance
Supplemental Security Income
Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation

Now if your program is not here yet, then you should be a GOP supporter.


SOCIAL SECURITY CHECKS UP 4.1 %

For the year 2006 there will be a 4.1% increase in the social security check, but wait.......$39.00.
The 4.1% will be about $39.00 and every month you will have a deduction of $37.00, I think this gives you a $2.00 increase right........maybe.......
Medicare announced its premiums would be 13% in 2006, that's about $10.30 more per month.
If you choose the new Medicare prescription drug benefits, then you may pay $43.00 a month or if you spend more than the $2,250 dollars before the end of the year, then you must pay the next $3,500 dollars and after $5,100 dollars your Medicare will start back paying 95% of your drug cost.........Don't the law state that your Medicare premiums cannot be more than the Social Security increase ? .........Some increase.......but wait ......there are programs to help the poor or low income, if the Federal and State come up with some type of agreement. GOOD LUCK AMERICA.

GAS AT THE PUMP AND HEATING GAS

I must confess that I drive an SUV and I have a regular car also. Now the gas that I must pay for the SUV is $55.00 and $30.00 for my regular car and I am getting very nervous because Winter is coming and so are those heating bills. I'm told that the heating bills for this coming year wil be 30%-50% more than last year. What is going on people.

WHAT IS THE DAVIS BACON ACT

In 1927 an Alabama Contractor won a bid at the Veterans Hospital in Long Island, New York. He came with his crew and ran into problems because he was Black and so was his crew.
Senators Robert Bacon and James J. Davis came up with (H.R. 17009), which denied any unskilled or nonunion workers to work on Federal property and be paid the same as union and skilled workers. This bill was a Jim Crow Law to keep Blacks from getting the jobs that whites wanted.

Now for years Blacks have said that this was unfair and tried to have it suspended. Katrina came through New Orleans and the Base there was damaged and someone has given a no bid contract to rebuild the Base to a company that we all know so well. The President has suspended the Davis Bacon Act, so that workers can come from another country to work in New Orleans and be paid less than what union and skilled workers are paid.....someone will get rich.....why not hire the people from New Orleans and pay them fair wages.....after all is said and done, who will live in New Orleans after the work is done....whats wronge with this picture?

LETS TALK WITH MEDICARE PRESCRIPTION DRUG BENEFIT, EDUCATION, AND HEALTH

DID YOU KNOW

In the Koran, (the Islamic Bible). There's a verse that should be known by all Muslims. Koran (9:11) For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced; for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the land of Allah; and there was peace.
Now there are three (3), things that stand out here 1. The verse number 9-11, 2. The Eagle,(USA) and 3. The Son of Arabia.

MEDICARE PRESCRIPTION DRUG BENEFIT

On January 1, 2006 Medicare will add a new prescription drug benefit. If you recieve Medicare you must decide if you want to enroll, the dates are between Novenber 15, 2005 and May 15, 2006. If you join by December 31, 2005 your Medicare prescription drug will begin on January 1, 2006. If you join after that, your coverage will begin the first day of the month after you enroll. When you enroll in Medicare, you will be able to enroll in a prescription drug plan.

If you wait after this year and decide to enroll, then you will pay a higher premium, which by the way the premium for each month will be 33.15. Some plans will be more, others less maybe. You must pay the first $250 deductible of the drug cost every year. Medicare will pay 75% of the next $2,000 of your cost. and you pay 25% of this costs or $500.

After your drug cost reach $2,250, you will pay 100% of the drug cost on the next $2,850. After your out-of-pocket drug costs, not including premiums, reach $3,600 ($250 deductible + $500 coinsurance + $2,850 coverage gap), Medicare will start paying 95% of your drug cost. How in the world did the AARP agree with this.

Starting in October, if you plan to enroll you can go to www.medicare.gov and at- Finding a Medicare Prescription Drug Plan, choose your plan and good luck. After choosing a plan you will enroll with that private company and keep in mind that after a year, the company that you picked, has the right to opt. out of this service to you.

REMEMBER IF YOU DECIDE TO ENROLL AT A LATTER DATE YOUR PREMIUM WILL BE HIGHER!
