O/T . . .last one I promise

Just got this in email form . . .I actually know this guy. I'll have to ask him if it's really his work. I doubt it. Not that I think he doesn't believe this, just that he wouldn't write it, I don't think. Either way, I like it.



> NEW PREAMBLE TO THE CONSTITUTION
>
> > The following has been attributed to State
> Representative Mitchell Kaye from GA. (This guy should run for President one day.)
> Here's his take on a new preamble...
>
> "We the sensible people of the United States, in an
> attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid more
> riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings of
> debt-free liberty to ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try
> one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally
> whiny, guilt ridden, and delusional folks who seem to be everywhere. We hold these
> truths to be self evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the Bill of
> Rights and are so dim they require a Bill of NON-Rights."
>
> ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car,
> big screen TV, or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally
> acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.
>
> ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be
> offended. This country is based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone --
> not just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion,
> etc.; but the world is full of idiots, and probably always will be.
>
> ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free
> from harm. If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful; do not
> expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently
> wealthy.
>
> ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food
> and housing. Americans are the most charitable people to be found, and will gladly
> help anyone in need, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after
> generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation
> of another generation of professional couch potatoes. Get an education and go to
> work. . .don't expect everyone else to take care of you!
>
> ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health
> care. That would be nice, but from the looks of public housing, we're just not
> interested in public health care.
>
> ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically
> harm other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be
> surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair.
>
> ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the
> possessions of others. If you rob, cheat, or coerce away the goods or services of
> other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away
> in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen color TV or a life
> of leisure.
>
> ARTICLE VIII: You do not have the right to a job. All
> of us sure want you to have a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but
> we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of education and vocational
> training laid before you to make yourself useful. (AMEN!)
>
> ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness.
> Being an American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness, which by the
> way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an over abundance of idiotic laws
> created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights.
>
> ARTICLE X: This is an English speaking country. We
> don't care where you are from, English is our language. Learn it or go back to
> wherever you came from!
>
>
> (Lastly....)
>
> ARTICLE XI: You do not have the right to change our
> country's history or heritage. This country was founded on the belief in one true
> God. And yet, you are given the freedom to believe in any religion, any faith, or no
> faith at all; with no fear of persecution The phrase IN GOD WE TRUST is part of our
> heritage and history, and if you are uncomfortable with it, TOUGH!
>
>
> If you agree, share this with a friend. No, you don't
> have to, and nothing tragic will befall you if you don't. I just think it's about
> time common sense is allowed to flourish. Sensible people of the United States
> speak out because if you do not, who will? IN God We Trust.

New people to our countries should read it and also our children and friends. My mother always told me "If you are looking for a hand up there is one on both your arms. Make use of them" Thanks for the posting. .

E PLURIBUS UNUM (sp)

All others pay cash.

In G-d We Trust
All others pay cash.
