The Meagher Memorial

PERSONAL

I awoke this morning at 6:30am to a 3-, after 7+ hours of sleep. I took my am pills, It is chilly and wet morning. I settled into my chair to catch up on the talking heads on C-span, CNBC, CNN and the local news. I did get an email from my friends at American Rights at Work asking that I call my Senators to support The Employee Free Choice Act. I will do that but I believe they are both on the right side of this issue. It should be quiet this week as most of Congress is back home talking to real people. My Congressman Earl 's function was yesterday and I hope to report on later under Political. I received the latest issue of the AOH Newspaper and saw the report from Montana, and uncle Hank looks good and cousin Tom is still trying to deceive people on his face book page. The Helena AOH are also raising funds for their to-do, The Meagher Memorial at Fort Benton Montana. Donations can be sent to The Meagher Memorial at PO Box 1916; Helena Montana 59624. With those many Irish followers I have, maybe I can do them some aid. I'm still not sure when, but, I hope to get a link to the many pictures that were taken at the MS walk.

POLITICAL

C-span had Tom Daschle Debating a Bushie and addressing a group last month at the Penneta Institute, I don't think Bruce Temple reads my blog yet, but I”m sure he would have been happy to hear Daschle's explanation of what they are trying to do.

More on Wednesday's “Tea Party”. I did see a high end foreign Car with an “Impeach Obama” bumper sticker after my short outing Wednesday, I think they were returning to that infamous Happy Valley Ghetto.
The Governor of Texas advocated Sucession at his in Austin Tea Party. Lets see.........for every $1.00 Texas sends to Washington D.C., they get $ .88 back from DC. I've also seen somewhere, the State of Texas is in the top 10 states feeding at the Federal Trough. I say, let em go and maybe Oregon can move up to close to $.50.

I do hate the thought that so many of my relatives would become forieners. But at least they wouldn't be illegal aliens. ( I don't think anyway )

Those American Rights at Work Ad’s are sure getting better and better, which brings me to their request to call Senator's Wyden and Merkley. This I will do; but being they are home for the Easter break I may have a reader that can deliver the message personally. Maybe they will check out my blog, Ron has told me he has checked it out before.
Do those anti health care people really believe that people will think a National Health Plan means you will have to go to a DMV like center to get healthcare? CNBC's Erin Burnett even asked the question today. Just because you live in the richest country in the world, do you really believe you have a right to health care?
Today is Tax Day. Also Tea Party Protest day. I haven't seen any news reports on the millions that must be in the streets marching right now, and burning their social security and medicare cards, of course, as you may have noticed, FOX is not one of my regular fodder stops. ( I do try to be accurate on this blog)

SPORTS

Seattle did lose last night; but Ichiro is back, Griffey has returned home, and the relief catcher is from Billings Montana, I haven't visited Keith Olberman's sports blog yet, but it should be fun. I still say the Blazers can go all the way. Oh, I forgot, Brandon won his game.

COMMUNITY ORGANIZERS

I always thought Grampas, and Momas, were supposed to be doing the bragging? I thought I knew a lot about the Jewish faith, considering I have a number of Jewish friends, but they never told me that baby bragging was also a poppas responsibility. I hope this will work here at my Lazy Boy http://wyattgabriel.blogspot.com/

OTHER STUFF & OBSERVATIONS

I hope everyone can share the American Rights at work website so my small donation can be utilized to it’s fullest extent. I did send them second small donation, because they are still doing the Lords work.

Please, You can share the American Rights, the MS walk, the March of Dimes walk and the recovery websites; so my taxes and donations can be utilized to their fullest extent.

Whether you attend a church service, a Mosque, G & L gathering, or Synagogue service, please say a prayer that God; yours, mine or ours; keeps our service men and women in the Palm of their hand. And maybe even a big prayer for my nephews Daniel and Christopher and all their family. My flags out.

With the Sun out, I am in my chair here posting at 4+ and I'm not yelling! On CNBC, the DOW is down just under 50 points but still close to 8,000!

Well, I’ll see you next time on my blog………….
