How Much Does Congress Make?

How much does Congress make?

"We keep hearing about the sacred cows of social security and defense but what about the percentage of the budget it takes to run the government? I'd like to see the percentages of salaries of Congress, their benefits, and retirement." — N. H. Jansen

Though they make up less than five percent of the roughly $4 trillion federal budget, the salaries and health and retirement benefits for members of Congress and other government employees have become a target of many of those looking to slash government costs.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, with about 2 million civilian employees, excluding the postal service, the federal government is the nation's largest employer.

Islamic “values” are seeping into charter schools and via the Discovery Channel and Gulen movement

Kevin Collins' Coach Is Right

By Suzanne Eovaldi, staff writer ( this is a special edition of Sunday’s with Suzanne)

Our school children are facing Muslim indoctrination with “The 99″ project which is set to air in January with a 13 episode series on the Discovery Channel for Kids. President Obama praised this media event for capturing young imaginations by “teaching tolerance for Islam” at his recent Washington, D.C. Presidential Summit speech.

This new series is using animated adventure heroes to depict the 99 attributes of Allah in what the London Times (1) is saying “the show’s mission is to instill old fashioned Islamic values” into our Christian children.
Kathy Bright of the Bright Media network has developed (2) The Shield Bearer project to counter the Islamization of our children by using new God centered action heroes. “The 99″ project describes two Muslim heroes as Jabbar The Powerful: from Saudi Arabia and Widad The Loving: from the Philippines, while calling Darr The Afflicter: the United States role model.

A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Words

Obama's Secret Army Authorized in Health Care Bill

INFOWARS
Obama Just Got His Private Army

Remember when Obama said he wanted a “national security force”? Not the national guard, but a civilian one that has not sworn to uphold the Constitution? On July 2, 2008 in a speech in Colorado Springs, Barack Obama called for a police state.



Remember that first alarming glimpse of what that army might look like? Notice how much these “Hitler youth” type young men talk about health care!



Obama just got his private army…

Obama's Army & Civilian Prison Camps

Could this letter from Congress written March 24, 1997, explain why Obama needs his own private army granted in the Obamacare Plan? What are your thoughts?
