President Obama uses Caitlyn Jenner as example of our country being 'more accepting' of who people 'truly are'
By Gina DiFalco, 6/26/2015
President Obama acknowledged our country’s progress when it comes to acceptance, bringing up Caitlyn Jenner’s recent transition as an example.
He attended the taping of Logo's Trailblazer Honors, where he made a moving speech about being accepting of the LGBT and transgender communities.
“When this network aired its first show, gay marriage was a political wedge issue used to divide us," he said of just 10 years ago. "Today the majority of Americans live in states where they can get married, no matter who they love. Today 'Don't Ask Don't Tell' is history.”
People reports he never mentioned Jenner by name, but mentioned her groundbreaking Vanity Fair cover.
“All you have to do is look at this month's cover of Vanity Fair to see how America is more accepting of people for who they truly are,” he continued.
Obama went on to call this progressive way of thinking a natural step. He said it shows “change is not just possible – change is inevitable.”

Sad funny but true,,,

Three Contractors


Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at the White House…

One is from Chicago, another is from Kentucky, and the third is from New Orleans.  All three go with a White House official to examine the fence.

The New Orleans contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil.

"Well," he says, "I figure the job will run about $9,000. That's $4,000 for materials, $4,000 for my crew and $1,000 profit for me."

The Kentucky contractor also does some measuring and figuring, then says,
"I can do this job for $7,000.  That's $3,000 for materials, $3,000 for my crew and $1,000 profit for me."

The Chicago contractor doesn't measure or figure, but leans over to the White House official and whispers, "$27,000."

The official, incredulous, says, "You didn't even measure like the other guys. How did you come up with such a high figure?"

The Chicago contractor whispers back, "$10,000 for me, $10,000 for you, and we hire the guy from Kentucky to fix the fence."

"Done!" replies the government official.
And that, my friends, is how the Government Stimulus plan worked.

Remember... Four boxes keep us free: the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, and the cartridge box.

THE JOKE'S ON YOU...

The Clintons

Subject: Fw: FW: The Clintons

Clinton's 20 Acre - $11 million mansion Read how the joke's on us!
Hillary Rodham Clinton, as a New York State Senator now comes under this fancy
"congressional retirement staffing plan" which means that if she never
gets re-elected, she STILL receives her Congressional salary until she dies. If Bill out-lives her, he then inherits HER salary until he dies. He is already getting his Presidential salary until he dies. If Hillary out-lives Bill, she also gets HIS salary until she dies, Guess who pays for that? WE DO!
>>>>>>>> It is common knowledge that in order for her to establish NY residency,
they purchased a million dollar-plus house in upscale Chappaqua, New
York...makes sense. They are entitled to Secret Service protection for life. Still makes sense. Here is where it becomes interesting. Their mortgage payments hover around $10,000/month. But an extra residence had to be built by
the government on the acreage to house the Secret Service Agents. Any
improvement to the property is owned by the property owners...the
Clinton's. So...the Clinton's charge the federal government $10,000 monthly rent for the use of the extra residence to house the Secret Service staff which is just about equal to their mortgage payment.
>>>>>>>> He is the ONLY ex-president to use this loophole. This means that we, the taxpayers, pay the Clinton's, salary, mortgage, transportation, safety and security as well as the salaries for their 12 man staff and it is all perfectly
legal.
>>>>>>>>

>>>>>>>> When she runs for President, will you vote for her? How many people will YOU send this to?
May God supply you abundantly with His amazing grace.
blessings,
