SO COSO COLORADO IS LEARNING MORE LESSONS..............
SO COLORADO IS LEARNING MORE LESSONS..............
That seems like it is a wave that has that Beautiful State of Colorado in a dizzing situation.
We might learn by saying I was not there, and am relieved.
We do not know the answers, or do we. Our country is in so much turmoil that we
find ourselves not knowing any answers. Best is to start Praying and hoping that
Our God, Hears and Answers our hopes and fears. Amen.

SIMPLY AMAZING WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT
SIMPLY AMAZING WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT
Isn't it amazing that, within only one week of Tiger Woods crashing his Escalade,
the press found every woman with whom Tiger has had an affair during the last few years?
And, they even uncovered photos, text messages, recorded phone calls, etc.!
Furthermore, they not only know the cause of the family fight, but they even know it was a
9 iron from his golf bag that his wife used to break out the windows in the Escalade.
Not only that, they know which wedge!
And, each & every day, they were able to continue to provide America with updates
on Tiger's sex rehab stay, his wife's divorce settlement figures, as well as the dates &
tournaments in which he will play.
Now, Barack Hussein Obama has been in office for almost three years, yet this very same press:
· Cannot find any of his childhood friends or neighbors;
· Or find any of Obama's high school or college classmates;
· Or locate any of his college papers or grades;
· Or determine how he paid for both a Columbia & a Harvard education;
· Or discover which country issued his visa to travel to Pakistan in the 1980's;
· Or even find Michelle Obama's Princeton thesis on racism.
They just can't seem to uncover any of this.
Yet, the public still trusts that same press to give them the whole truth!
Don't you find that totally amazing ?
NOW TELL ME THERE IS NO CORRUPTION IN THE AMERICAN PRESS……
You cannot get the water to clear up until you get the pigs out of the creek.

JUST A FACT I THINK WE ALL KNOW !!!
......Are Rich People Unethical?

At last, an explanation for Wall Street's disgrace, Bernard Madoff's Ponzi scheme and other high-society crimes and misdemeanors: A new study published in the Proceedings of that National Academy of Sciences found that wealthier people were more apt to behave unethically than those who had less money.
Scientists at the University of California at Berkeleyanalyzed a person's rank in society (measured by wealth, occupational prestige and education) and found that those who were richer were more likely to cheat, lie and break the law than those who were poorer.
"We found that it is much more prevalent for people in the higher ranks of society to see greed and self-interest … as good pursuits," said Paul Piff, lead author of the study and a doctoral candidate at Berkeley. "This resonates with a lot of current events these days."
In the first of two studies, researchers found that those who drove more expensive cars (an admittedly questionable indicator of economic worth) were more likely to cut off other cars and pedestrians at a busy San Francisco four-way intersection than those who drove older, less-expensive vehicles.
In other experiments, wealthier study participants were more likely to admit they would behave unethically in a variety of situations and lie during negotiations. In another, researchers found wealthier people were more likely to cheat in an online game to win a $50 prize.
Greed is a "robust" determinant of unethical behavior, according to the study.
"This has some pretty clear implications," said Piff. "Inequality is very much on Americans' minds, and the potential effects of severe inequality on individual levels of behavior are major."
Large sums of money may give people greater feelings of entitlement, causing those people to be the most averse to wealth distribution, Piff continued. Poorer people may be less likely to cheat, because they are more dependent on their community at large, he said. In other words, they don't want to rock the boat.
"People in power who are more inclined to behave unethically in the service of gains and self-interest can have great effects on society as a whole," said Piff.
And it's difficult to say whether richer people get to the top because of their unethical behavior or whether wealth causes people to become this way. "It seems like a vicious cycle," he said.
Nevertheless, Piff said these results obviously don't apply to all wealthy people. He noted that Bill Gates and Warren Buffett were among the wealthiest people in the world and also the most philanthropic. He also pointed to high rates of violent crime in the poorest neighborhoods in the country that counteract the study's findings.
Piff said he hoped to further his research by figuring out ways to curb these patterns of behavior among wealthier individuals.
"What it comes down to, really, is that money creates more of a self-focus, which may account for larger feelings of entitlement," said Piff. "We hope to further study how we can curb these patterns and how that will affect our social environment."

If We Could Only Get Rid of The Rich???
Yes, getting rid of the RICH will never happen....... They have as much
Power as the Devil. Sheldon Adelson, the Billionaire is now throwing
millions of dollars for Gringrich, to me he is the Grinch. I don't know
whom would be a good President.... Our Supreme Court judge's are the
one's who gave power to the Rich Bastards last year, so they could
contribute any amount they want to. Whom are beholden to the Rich?
What a SHAM!!!
