Text of the page (random words):
of this bill goes to safety for the students after all a vote for prop s is a vote for the children and anything bit is anti children yet they expect you vote for it last thursday i requested my pso to go to the rockwood school district meeting to present a request that request simply consisted of the district linking to the 2013 missouri state education budget along side the link for prop s on their website both the pso president and the school principal absolutely agreed to the request the very next morning i received a phone call informing me that my request had already been heard i was told that once my request was entered as new business later that night it would automatically be sent to the rockwood school board for a vote after the election now i had not shared my request with anybody and i was the only person in the room who was not a member of either the board or staff how this information had already found its way to the district i can only guess fact is prop s is a gateway it is the gateway to saying yes i will have some and more and more and more this is a gateway to glen construction who has already over billed the district who paid the same bill twice to steve smith the then board president and current board member oh snap did i mention that glen construction is his company and he pocketed 2 1 million dollars per year on these district contracts yet they expect you vote for it yea missouri state auditor tom schweicht found them guilty on all charges but after a 2 year warning of an active audit it was only 1 month ago did the board vote to do things differently even though smith claimed to recuse himself during some active votes on construction bids yet they expect you vote for it of the proposes 38 4 million glen construction stands to take 23 of it while the safety allocation is a mere 7 yes you heard me seven percent is going to the safety and security of our children our students yet they expect you vote for it wow and they are concerned about locker rooms that are no bigger than the rest of us grew up with or new carpeting in cafeteria and hallways oh the humanity also cafeteria kitchens and hallways need to be able to be doused in bleach daily hardly condusive to carpeting where will it stop they play thisboff as a no tax rate increase which will pay off 69 cents by 69 cents per year well that covers a span of hopefully 13 years but considering the number of residents who have not paid their neighborhood fee to years and years and years minus the tax cheats it could be much longer could you imagine if people just stopped voting for this rubbish 20 years ago we would see the fruits of labor stretched to capacity because it s limited and see a tax decrease at the same time have these people noticed the economy it isn t something that will turn around over night yet they expect you vote for it at this point this is no longer a vote for the kids it is a vote for control it goes on and on of they win this proposition be danged sure you will see another in two years it has happened every two years since the first one passed trust me they ll find the funds elsewhere without prop s passing after all 18 billion of the 23 b alotted per budget year in the state of missouri goes directly to teacher s pensions you heard me right 18 billion of the budgeted 23 billion is pensions wanna know how much goes straight to administration under the school superintendent yeah cuts can be made all around without further burden to the tax payers the money is there since the rockwood school district refuses to link the state budget to their site i have linked it to mine numbers don t lie now as much as the pso president s and i do not see eye to eye at all i respect their work and their willingness to bring this matter forward and as diplomatic as our school principal who i absolutely love by the way is i have yet to receive a response aside from my insider who told me exactly where this would go in the first place no initial response no hey this is how it went because unfortunately i know exactly where it went and we all would have heard otherwise or a sorry for transparency finally nope nada them this hit my inbox last night sounds like if they child figure out a way to get the busses running on the down low to drive votes in for this proposition they absolutely would mark your calendar

family faith featured federal government legislation main stream media news leave a comment tags big goverment civil clue culture erosion freedom gop government license marriage religous freedom same sex society unions video in a report issued yesterday by the new york times several prominent republicans signed a legal brief in support of gay marriage this includes four former governors two members of congress and several advisers to former president george w bush this move continues to shed light upon the fact that those on the hill are completely out of touch with the american people while the gay community has been manipulated by mainstream media in to a big hurrah as a victory for gay rights they are ignoring the fact that this only further enslaves them they are now caught in the snare that the heterosexual community has been subject to a government mandate on the institution of marriage last time i checked marriage was not an illegal act but a biblical concept lets take a look from freedictionary li cense l s ns n 1 a official or legal permission to do or own a specified thing see synonyms at permission b a document plate or tag that is issued as proof of official or legal permission a driver s license 2 deviation from normal rules practices or methods in order to achieve a certain end or effect 3 latitude of action especially in behavior or speech see synonyms at

embodied in the copyright or patent short of an assignment of all rights 3 a freedom that allows or is used with irresponsibility b disregard for standards of personal conduct licentiousness 4 deviation from fact form or rule by an artist or writer for the sake of the effect gained what an activity otherwise unlawful yes the power the government has impressed upon the church has deemed it illegal for anyone to marry gay or straight within a church without permission from the state to do what is otherwise unlawful irresponsible with disregard for standards of personal conduct and is a deviation from normal rules practices or methods and there you have it the act of marriage has now become subject to criminal activity unless a government official decides that it in your best interest to grant your request sounds like freedom eh in 1999 while planning my wedding we were specifically told by the priest that it was illegal for the church to perform the ceremonial rite of marriage when pressed he further responded that no church would perform such as it would jeopardize the church s tax exempt status so it seems their hands were tied as well this is where the government first really screwed the homosexual community knowing at the time that churches would not perform weddings to those of the same sex as it violated their belief system bound churches pretty much by extortion with the signing of this brief it now looks as though the gay community is now bound too a little food for thought from my dear friend scott boston i don t think the government should tell churches who to marry i also don t think the government should tell churches who they shouldn t marry if a church says that gay marriage is in violation with its beliefs and tenets of its faith then i have no problem with that church not performing that rite if a gay couple can find a church that wants to marry them more power to them if you go to the justice of the peace i think you should get a civil union no matter who you are since it is a civil and not a religious institution the reason that government got involved in marriage was because progressives who believed in eugenics wanted to make sure that blacks and whites could not intermarry and dilute the white race bingo instead both sides in washington are now perpetuating more big government by placing further restrictions on citizens this is not a win for gay marriage it is a further push toward slavery we now have one more notch on the post of government control as the gop continues to erode so will society and american culture from stixblog the slow decay of morality is the basis of the socialist movement it makes the people look to the state instead of community and religion for direction i do not wear my religion on my sleeve but the total disregard for religious liberty is eroding and is going into overtime with obama further livefromthecatacombs it was mentioned to me that in a lot of ways violent revolution would be easier than the battle that we and our children are about to face in the next generation and stacy washington i just finished the harbinger at book club it s a very interesting read about an ancient biblical prophecy that foretells our collapse this isn t a fight that our children will fight it s ramping up to befall america in just a few short years things will continue to get worse as organizations and institutions fall into disarray the gop is there now turning back to god is the only answer with that said this is precisely where america stands at this moment the question is will we continue to slam the door or will we finally look to see what is on the other side before it s too late rip c everett koop published february 26 2013 family faith

surgeon general the evangelical christian was initially faced with great opposition to his nomination due to his personal views on abortion koop however was one of the few figures in american history who had the ability to separate his personal views from the politics of it all during the aids epidemic of the 1980s koop became a champion for aids research and education and was heralded by both the homosexual community and aids activists alike the aids scare came to an end in 1989 when koop retired his post among the other health issues facing the culture at that time he declared smoking a
