Would be funny if not true.

Taxes - What Are They Good For?


Senator Tom Daschle’s take on tax cheaters in 1998:
“Make no mistake. Tax cheaters cheat us all. The IRS should enforce our laws to the letter.”
I wonder if former senator Tom Daschle feels that way today….

WOW…just finished my taxes. 48 pages of Federal tax returns for itemizing deductions and having a little investment property that I can’t seem to sell! HELP!

However, I feel proud of myself because I just accomplished what Tim Geitner, Tom Daschle, Charlie Rangel, and a host of other Federal Government officials and Presidential appointees can’t figure out or failed to do.

Just my luck, over qualified for high paying job in the public sector, under qualified for high paying job in the private sector!

If this wasn’t so sad or so important, this would be laughable. Unfortunately, it is not…
The hard-working, law abiding, tax paying citizens must stand up and be heard! A good start:

1) Find your local Tea Party tomorrow and attend.
2) Write your Congressman, Senator, the President and let them know how you feel.
3) Stay involved, talk to others

It is bad enough that Washington is wasting your tax dollars, but worse that they are wasting your children’s and grandchildren’s tax dollars!

This is not the America that was handed to us by our forefathers and our parents. Don’t let it be the America that we hand down to future generations.

End of Week Funny - KIDS IN CHURCH

KIDS IN CHURCH
3-year-old Reese:
"Our Father, Who does art in heaven,
Harold is His name.
Amen."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A little boy was overheard praying:
"Lord, if you can't make me a better boy, don't worry about it.
I'm having a real good time like I am."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After the christening of his baby brother in church,
Jason sobbed all the way home in the back seat of the car.
His father asked him three times what was wrong.
Finally, the boy replied,
"That preacher said he wanted us brought up in a Christian home,
and I wanted to stay with you guys."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One particular four-year-old prayed,
"And forgive us our trash baskets
as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Sunday school teacher asked her children as they
were on the way to church service,
"And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?"
One bright little girl replied,
"Because people are sleeping."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin 5, and Ryan 3.
The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake.
Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson.
"If Jesus were sitting here, He would say,
'Let my brother have the first pancake, I can wait.'
Kevin turned to his younger brother and said,
"Ryan, you be Jesus!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A father was at the beach with his children
when the four-year-old son ran up to him,
grabbed his hand, and led him to the shore
where a seagull lay dead in the sand
"Daddy, what happened to him?" the son asked.
"He died and went to Heaven," the Dad replied.
The boy thought a moment and then asked,
"Why did God throw him back down?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A wife invited some people to dinner.
At the table, she turned to their six-year-old daughter and said,
"Would you like to say the blessing?"
"I wouldn't know what to say," the girl replied.
"Just say what you hear Mommy say," the wife answered.
The daughter bowed her head and said,
"Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And if you don't send this to at least 8 people ----- who cares?!
Peace, love and happiness
