Look, everyone knows I appreciate Sam's Club delivering lower prices to our area but one has to be fair and ask, how can they be $ .20 cents a gallon LESS than their other location not that far from Salisbury?

Granted, Sam's Club is MUCH lower than those Kratovil Gas Stations locally but this is ridiculous. Americans are being cheated and just like the Stock Market, OUR GOVERNMENT is once again proving they cannot monitor or regulate certain businesses they have every right doing so.

Close your eyes Congress and line your pockets. It certainly pays to be a Politician these days, doesn't it?

Louis Farrakhan Declares Barack Obama The Messiah



October 9, 2008
World Net Daily

Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, another powerful Chicago-based political figure associated with the Rev. Jeremiah Wright and other long-time associates of Democratic Party presidential candidate Barack Obama, is leaving no doubt about what he thinks of the leader in the campaign for the White House.

He says when Obama talks "the Messiah is absolutely speaking."

Addressing a large crowd behind a podium Feb. 24 with a Nation of Islam Saviour's Day 2008 sign, Farrakhan proclaims,

"You are the instruments that God is going to use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that they didn't care anything about. That's a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking."

Obama - Plans On Disarming America

18 Soldiers Return Frome Iraq Like Hero's Should Be












While 15 out of the 18 are actually from Salisbury, this certainly was a Hero's Welcome with a Police Escort, Patriot Guard Escort and Fire Department Escort. It was certainly a tear jerker for many and while I have many photos from this event today, I can only put up so much at one time.

I want to thank ALL of you for attending. The arrival time bounced back and forth several times but I for one didn't care what time they got in, I knew it would be well worth the wait.

So Thank You Soldiers for all you do. This Unit trained for this mission for just about a year before they were deployed to Iraq and stayed for just about a year in Iraq.

There's no question in my mind that when ANY Soldier returns to this Eastern Shore, their reception is one they ALL know we appreciate what they're doing for us here in the States. It's a beautiful day in our neighborhood.

Can there be Martial Law in the US? Judge for Yourself

Things That Make You Go, Hmmmmmmmmm?

Now isn't this something to think about!

If Barack Obama would apply for a job with the FBI or with the Secret Service, he would be disqualified because of his past association with William Ayers, a known terrorist.

If he is elected President he would not qualify to be his own body guard!

And they make fun of Sarah! What is wrong with this country???

RED NET ALERT

THE TIME HAS BEEN CHANGED TO 12:00 FOR THE SOLDIERS ARRIVING TO THE SALISBURY ARMORY TODAY.

John Glover Leads The Jack Glover Memory Walk For Alzheimer's In Salisbury MD.

Don't forget to show up at the Salisbury Armory at 1:30 today for the Soldiers returning from Iraq. There will be a massive Police Escort from the Md. State Police, Wicomico County Sheriff's Office, Delmar Police and the Salisbury Police Department.

UPDATE: They raised $41,000.00 this year for the walk. CONGRATULATIONS!

Will the Voter Fraud Uncovered in Ohio, Missouri and Eleven Other States Give Reason to Cancel the 2008 Elections?

As I reported about the Voter fraud that I personally witnessed last week while in Ohio. It has now become very apparent that I was not only correct in my supposition, but this is a far more reaching problem than any of us ever imagined.
Thirteen states are now reporting suspected voter fraud!
Illinois now has 105% of it's population registered to vote!
How at this point will the elections be conducted?
Once an absentee ballot is opened and the envelope is thrown away (which is customary) the return address is gone and the ballot is completely anonymous. How are these ballots to be counted?
Thirteen states with highly suspect ballots!
ACORN and the stupid little socialist who bought into their BS, then found that they really weren't enough college kids to register, turned to homeless people, and crackheads just to meet their quotas, have put this country into a very serious situation.
What do you the readers think should be done about the votes of these thirteen states?
Throw away all absentee ballots?
Change the rules right now and say if "If you are going to vote you must come to the polls on the 4th and no other ballots will be accepted"?
As you know I read a lot of different sided sights out there on the net and I have to say that more than once I have seen articles predicting that the 2008 elections will be cancelled.
I have always wondered what in the world could happen to be serious enough, catastrophic enough to cancel an election?
Financial Meltdown?
Threat of War?
Devastating Natural Disaster?
Massive Voter Fraud?
Looks like we have three out of my four major scenarios.
I'm going to go on the record as thinking that cancellation of the 2008 election is a very real possibility.
If they do negate the votes in these states we are going to have people protesting in the streets that their voices do not matter.
If they do allow the votes in these states to be counted the rest of the country is going to be marching in the streets saying that the election was rigged.
Does canceling the election throw us into a dictatorship?
The 'Continuity of Government' order was extended by the White House last summer (It is a clause that allows the President and the President alone to make all decisions regarding the running of our country COMPLETELY bypassing Congress).
Is this the reason troops have been deployed in the US for the first time since the Civil War?
The official statement is that they have been deployed for crowd control....
Don't believe me?
Read this Army Times Article or this, from AlterNet, and this from George Washington's Blog .
Google it for yourself and you will find plenty of articles and interesting comments from those reading this information around the world.
Three thousand troops deployed in the US for crowd control. What do they need to control us for?
Something smells really bad here folks, and we need to keep our eyes and ears open.

The North Prong Plan -- It's Sheer Nonsense

I hope you sit down before reading this passage from the plan that a consulting firm recently prepared for the City (warning--it's classic consultant-speak):

PART III: THE VISION FOR THE NORTH PRONG

Using the assessment and stakeholder input, the planning team prepared the following
vision statement for the North Prong:

“Salisbury’s North Prong is an exceptional resource for the entire City. It provides a
window to the water heritage of the community’s past, it is a pivot point where downtown
meets diverse and vibrant neighborhoods, and its future will evolve as a place where
existing businesses can mix with new uses and open spaces to create a rich environment
that is unique to Salisbury.”

*****************

Who, you may wonder, was on the "planning team" -- well, you will just have to wonder because the report does not discuss that. It appears that the team's members were most if not all graduates of various "city planning" programs, with little practical experience or judgment, nor any real familiarity with this area. To call the North Prong a "window to the water heritage of the community's past" is pure poppycock, and so too the "pivot point" blarney. The speculation about the future is basic planning jargon -- "a place where businesses can mix . . . to create a rich environment . . . unique to Salisbury." But for the name of the town, this spiel is probably in each and every report that this firm has generated.

This is the way in which places like Salisbury become mired in money pits, and this "plan" should be put to rest without further delay or dollars from the City.

Talk about your "Freudian slips"

TROY, N.Y. - Who is running for president? In an upstate New York county, hundreds of voters have been sent absentee ballots in which they could vote for "Barack Osama."
The absentee ballots sent to voters in Rensselaer County identified the two presidential candidates as "Barack Osama" and "John McCain." In the United States, the best-known individual named Osama is Osama bin Laden, leader of the al Qaida terrorist group behind the 2001 attacks that destroyed the World Trade Center in New York City.
The typographical terror error was first reported by the Times Union of Albany.
The elections office faxed a statement in which the two commissioners, Democrat Edward McDonough and Republican Larry Bugbee, said they regret the error but never acknowledge what the error was.
"It's human error, it's very unfortunate, it's an embarrassment to our office, obviously," McDonough said in a later phone interview. "We wish we could turn back the clock, but we can't."
When they discovered the mistake, officials shredded the remaining "Osama" ballots and mailed correct versions to the roughly 300 people who had already received them. McDonough said the "Osama" mistake was made in only one of the 13 ballot versions mailed throughout the county, located east of the state capital of Albany.
Voters who received both versions will be allowed to send in either one and have it counted, McDonough said.
Obama spokesman Blake Zeff said the campaign is "glad officials are working to correct this error and we assume it won't happen again."
