Http://www.spokesmenusa.com - editor@spokesmenusa.com THE SPOKESMEN Volume 3 Issue 1 The Peoples Voice Arizona governor vs. Phoenix Suns owner The owner of the Phoenix Suns basketball team, Robert Sarver, opposes AZ’s new immigration laws. Arizona ‘s Governor, Jan Brewer, released the following statement in response to Sarver’s criticism of the new law: THE SPARROW AT STARBUCKS The song that silenced the cappuccino machine. It was chilly in Manhattan but warm inside the Starbucks shop on 51st Street and Broadway, just a skip up from Times Square. Early November weather in New York City holds only the slightest hint of the bitter chill of late December and January, but it’s enough to send the masses crowding indoors to vie for available space and warmth. For a musician, it’s the most lucrative Starbucks location in the world, I’m told, and consequently, the tips can be substantial if you play your tunes right. Apparently, we were striking all the right chords that night, because our basket was almost overflowing. It was a fun, low-pressure gig - I was playing keyboard and singing backup for my friend who also added rhythm with an arsenal of percussion instruments. We mostly did pop songs from the ’40s to the ’90s with a few original tunes thrown in. During our emotional rendition of the classic, “If You Don’t Know Me by Now,” I noticed a lady sitting in one of the lounge chairs across from me. She was swaying to the beat and singing along. After the tune was over, she approached me. “I apologize for singing along on that song. Did it bother you?” she asked. “No,” I replied. “We love it when the audience joins in. Would you like to sing up front on the next selection?” To my delight, she accepted my invitation. “You choose,” I said. “What are you in the mood to sing?” “Well. ... do you know any hymns?” Hymns? This woman didn’t know who she was dealing with. I cut my teeth on hymns. Before I was even born, I was going to church. I gave our guest singer a knowing look. “Name one.” “Oh, I don’t know. There are so many good ones. You pick one.” “Okay,” I replied. “How about ‘His Eye is on the Sparrow’?” My new friend was silent, her eyes averted. Then she fixed her eyes on mine again and said, “Yeah. Let’s do that one.” She slowly nodded her head, put down her purse, straightened her jacket and faced the center of the shop. With my twobar setup, she began to sing, “Why should I be discouraged? Why should the shadows come?” Continued on page 2 “What if the owners of the Suns discovered that hordes of people were sneaking into games without paying? What if they had a good idea who the gate-crashers are, but the ushers and security personnel were not allowed to ask these folks to produce their ticket stubs, thus non-paying attendees couldn’t be ejected Furthermore, what if Suns’ ownership was expected to provide those who sneaked in with complimentary eats and drink? And what if, on those days when a gate-crasher became ill or injured, the Suns had to provide free medical care and shelter?” - Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer Try going to any other country without ID. I’m a legal American citizen and I must show my I’D when: 1. Pulled over by police. 2. Making purchases on a department store credit card. 3. When I show up for a doctor’s appointment. 4. When filling out a credit card or loan application. 5. When applying for or renewing a driver’s license or passport. 6. When applying for any kind of insurance. 7. When filling out college applications. 8. When donating blood. 9. When obtaining certain perscription drugs. 10. When making some debit purchases, especially when out of state. 11. When collecting a boarding pass for airline or train travel. I’m sure there are more instances, but the point is that we citizens of the USA are required to prove who we are nearly every day of our lives! WHY SHOULD PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY ILLEGALLY BE EXEMPT? Why shouldn’t we guard our borders as closely as every other country in the world does? Go ARIZONA!!! STATS TO REMEMBER A recent “Investor’s Business Daily” article provided very interesting statistics from a survey by the United Nations International Health Organization. Percentage of men and women who survived a cancer five years after diagnosis: Best quote of the week: Obama said : “Some people in DC talk about me like a dog”.... U.S. 65% England 46% Canada 42% Fred Thompson replied : “Maybe Percentage of patients diagnosed with diabe- it’s because he tes who received treatment within six months: keeps treating this country like a fire U.S.93% hydrant” England 15% Canada 43% Continued on page 6 Way to go Fred..... Pray and Cry out Day and Night God’s True Elect: (those preserving in faith and holiness) will never cease in praying and cryingout to God for the return of Jesus Christ. Always seeking His return to destroy the power of Satan and bring Victory over the present EVIL World System. We will preserve in prayer for our God to “Avenge us Quickly” and for Jesus Christ to Reign in righteousness ; knowing that His coming is the ONLY real hope for this Nation and the Christian world.

THE SPOKESMEN 2 Jersey Shore Tea Party Healthcare Lawsuit On September 24, 2010 a forty-two page, fifteen count lawsuit was filed in Southern NJ District Court by Nicholas Purpura and Don Laster, et al v. Kathleen Sebelius, HHS Secretary, Timothy Geithner, Treasury Secretary and Hilda Solis, Labor Secretary. Tea Party Groups and thousands of people nationwide are signing onto the growing suit. (To join, go to the following link and follow the directions. http://www.njteapartycoalition.org/ JSTP-Lawsuit.html It does not matter in what state you reside. We are looking for 250,000 signatures.) Don and Nick know their stuff. Nick is a law expert and former partner with Bear Stearns and Don is a Constitutional scholar. To date, four justice department attorneys are fighting to stop this The DOJ is scared and they should be. We now have documentation of suspected connivance between the judge and the DOJ. This is already being addressed in motions by Nick and Don. The government can not afford this suit to get to the SC. Unlike the State AG suits, Nick and Don have identified 15 counts on which so-called “HR 3590” is flat out unconstitutional. They have already filed a request for a Temporary Restraining Order and the fight is on. Because of the way the bill was written, if only one count stands, the judge has the authority to stop the implementation of the entire bill. You can see a PowerPoint presentation of the entire suit on the site mentioned above.. Don and Nick are setting up a website so you can follow the progress of the suit. Following is a brief description of some of the counts. The presentation goes into further detail. All revenue raising bills must originate in the House of representative. We unequivocally prove that “HR 3590” originated in the Senate. Congress can regulate commerce, but not coerce citizens to purchase a product because they breathe and live in the US. We prove that healthcare mandates citizens to make purchases against their will. Congress cannot fund an army for more than two years. We prove the bill creates a presidential army (Ready Reserve Corps) and funds it for four years. Congress cannot tax articles exported from any State. We prove the bill taxes medical devices made in one State and exported to another. Congress has no power to grant unreasonable search and seizure. We prove the bill authorizes the IRS to seize personal property as punishment for failure to purchase health insurance. Congress cannot deprive anyone of due process of the law. We prove that healthcare criminalizes those who fail to purchase mandated insurance, seizes their property and renders the civil right to “due process” null and void. Further, we prove that numerous sections of the healthcare bill state, “There shall be no administrative or judicial review,” thereby depriving citizens of “due process.” HIPPA laws protect medical information privacy. We prove the healthcare bill violates that privacy by sharing all medical information among various bureaucratic agencies. Congress has no authority to violate the antitrust laws. We prove that healthcare stealthily establishes a ‘single payer system’ amounting to a government run monopoly. Further, Congress violates the antitrust laws by establishing an entity that can ‘price fix’ and force insurers out of business. Our representatives swear an oath to act in a ‘fiduciary’ capacity to protect the American people. We prove that by failing to read the healthcare bill and by ignoring Constitutional warnings from the Congressional Research Service, our representatives committed impeachable offenses. We can win this and we can stop healthcare dead in its tracks. Please open the links below to join and please pass this to everyone you know.

Even the gurgling noises of the cappuccino machine ceased as the employees stopped what they were doing to listen. The song rose to its conclusion. “I sing because I’m happy; I sing because I’m free. For His eye is on the sparrow And I know He watches me.” When the last note was sung, the applause crescendoed to a deafening roar that would have rivaled a sold-out crowd at Carnegie Hall. Embarrassed, the woman tried to shout over the din, “Oh, y’all go back to your coffee! I didn’t come in here to do a concert! I just came in here to get somethin’ to drink, just like you!” But the ovation continued.. I embraced my new friend. “You, my dear, have made my whole year! That was beautiful!” “Well, it’s funny that you picked that particular hymn,” she said. “Why is that?” “Well . ..” she hesitated again, “that was my daughter’s favorite song.” “Really!” I exclaimed. “Yes,” she said, and then grabbed my hands. By this time, the applause had subsided and it was business as usual.. “She was 16. She died of a brain tumor last week.” I said the first thing that found its way through my stunned silence. “Are you going to be okay?” She smiled through tear-filled eyes and squeezed my hands. “I’m gonna be okay. I’ve just got to keep trusting the Lord and singing his songs, and everything’s gonna be just fine.” She picked up her bag, gave me her card, and then she was gone. Was it just a coincidence that we happened to be singing in that particular coffee shop on that particular November night? Coincidence that this wonderful lady just happened to walk WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG!

Coincidence that of all the hymns to choose from, I just happened to pick the very hymn that was the favorite of her daughter, who had died just the week before? I refuse to believe it. God has been arranging encounters in human history since the beginning of time, and it’s no stretch for me to imagine that he could reach into a coffee shop in midtown Manhattan and turn an ordinary gig into a revival. It was a great reminder that if we keep trusting him and singing his songs, everything’s gonna be okay. The next time you feel like GOD can’t use YOU, remember, Noah was a drunk Abraham was too old Isaac was a daydreamer Jacob was a liar Leah was ugly Joseph was abused Moses had a stuttering problem Gideon was afraid Samson had long hair also a womanizer Rahab was a prostitute Jeremiah and Timothy too young David had an affair and was a murderer Elijah was suicidal Isaiah preached naked Jonah ran from God Naomi was a widow Job went bankrupt John the Baptist ate bugs Peter denied Christ The Disciples fell asleep praying Martha worried about everything The Samaritan woman was divorced, more than once Zaccheus was too small Paul was too religious Timothy had an ulcer...

VISION FOR TODAY Dr. Terry Marquardt Written by a housewife in New Brunswick, to her local newspaper. This is one ticked off lady... ‘Are we fighting a war on terror or aren’t we? Was it or was it not, started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores on September 11, 2001 and have continually threatened to do so since? Were people from all over the world, not brutally murdered that day, in downtown Manhattan, across the Potomac from the capitol of the USA and in a field in Pennsylvania? Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn’t they? And I’m supposed to care that a few Taliban were claiming to be tortured by a justice system of a nation they are fighting against in a brutal insurgency. I’ll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11. I’ll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East, start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere belief of which, is a crime punishable by beheading in Afghanistan. I’ll care when these thugs tell the world they are sorry for hacking off Nick Berg’s head, while Berg screamed through his gurgling slashed throat. I’ll care when the cowardly so-called ‘insurgents’ in Afghanistan, come out and fight like men, instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding in mosques and behind women and children. I’ll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in search of nirvana, care about the innocent children within range of their suicide bombs. I’ll care when the Canadian media stops pretending that their freedom of speech on stories, is more important than the lives of the soldiers on the ground or their families waiting at home, to hear about them when something happens. In the meantime, when I hear a story about a CANADIAN soldier roughing up an Insurgent terrorist to obtain information, know this: 903 New York Ave Alamogordo, NM 88310 (575) 437-7783 I don’t care. When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when he is told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank: I don’t care. When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a prayer mat, and fed ‘special’ food, that is paid for by my tax dollars, is complaining that his holy book is being ‘mishandled,’ you can absolutely believe, in your heart of hearts: I don’t care. And oh, by the way, I’ve noticed that sometimes it’s spelled ‘Koran’ and other times ‘Quran.’ Well, Jimmy Crack Corn you guessed it, I don’t care!! Living With Poor Vision Cataracts By Judith Lee and Gretchyn Bailey; reviewed by Vance Thompson, MD A cataract is a clouding of the eye’s natural lens, which lies behind the iris and the pupil. The lens works much like a camera lens, focusing light onto the retina at the back of the eye. The lens also adjusts the eye’s focus, letting us see things clearly both up close and far away. The lens is mostly made of water and protein. The protein is arranged in a precise way that keeps the lens clear and lets light pass through it. But as we age, some of the protein may clump together and start to cloud a small area of the lens. This is a cataract, and over time, it may grow larger and cloud more of the lens, making it harder to see. Researchers are gaining additional insights about what causes these specific types of proteins (crystallins) to cluster in abnormal ways to cause lens cloudiness and cataracts. One recent finding suggests that fragmented versions of these proteins bind with normal proteins, disrupting normal function. Cataract Symptoms and Signs A cataract starts out small and at first has little effect on your vision. You may notice that your vision is blurred a little, like looking through a cloudy piece of glass or viewing an impressionist painting. If you agree with this viewpoint, pass this on to all your friends. Sooner or later, it’ll get to the people responsible for this ridiculous behavior! If you don’t agree, then by all means hit the delete button. Should you choose the latter, then please don’t complain when more atrocities committed by radical Muslims happen here in our great Country! And may I add: Some people spend an entire lifetime wondering, if during their life on earth, they made a difference in the world. But, the Soldiers don’t have that problem.’ I have another quote that I would like to share AND.......I hope you forward all this One last thought for the day: Only five defining forces have ever offered to die for you: 1. Jesus Christ 2. The British Soldier. 3. The Canadian Soldier. 4. The US Soldier, and 5. The Australian Soldier One died for your soul, the other four, for your freedom. Dear Charles , You did it. Facing pressure from you, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid announced Thursday night he was withdrawing the Democrats’ last-minute, 2,200 page-long, $1.1 trillion spending bill. He withdrew it from the floor because he didn’t have the votes. And he didn’t have the votes because you didn’t relent or stop contacting Senate Democrats until they had no choice but to listen. This is why elections matter. Because of the vote you cast on November 2, President Obama and the Democrats can’t ignore Republicans anymore. They can no longer ram through legislation without regard for what their constituents want or continue to recklessly spend your tax dollars while driving up the debt. Now they have to listen, and the fate of their latest spending bill is proof of that. This is just the beginning though. We have to keep the pressure up because they will try again. We must keep the pressure up today, tomorrow, next month and for the next two years. Will you continue to stand with us? Will you commit to holding the Democrats accountable and working to make sure Republicans take back the Senate in 2012? &&&If so, please click here and sign the petition. Tell the Democrats this was just the beginning and we will not let up on the pressure anytime soon. My Republican colleagues and I can’t thank you enough for the hard work you did this week. The Democrats may not have heard you on November 2, but we sure did and will continue to work everyday to get our country back on track. Sincerely, Sen. John Cornyn C Hazy or blurred vision may mean you have a cataract. A cataract may make light from the sun or a lamp seem too bright or glaring. Or you may notice when you drive at night that the oncoming headlights cause more glare than before. Colors may not appear as bright as they once did. If you think you have a cataract, see an eye doctor for an exam to find out for sure. What Causes Cataracts? No one knows for sure why the eye’s lens changes as we age, forming cataracts. Researchers are gradually identifying factors that may cause cataracts — and information that may help to prevent them. Many studies suggest that exposure to ultraviolet light is associated with cataract development, so eye care practitioners recommend wearing sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat to reduce your exposure. Other types of radiation may also be causes. For example, a 2005 study conducted in Iceland suggests that airline pilots have a higher risk of developing nuclear cataract than non-pilots and that the cause may be exposure to cosmic radiation. A similar theory suggests that astronauts, too, are at risk from cosmic ra HEAL the ACLU Two tons of ‘GET WELL’ cards would freeze their operations because they wouldn’t know if any were regular mail containing contributions.

He wrote it for his third grade homework assignment, to ‘explain God.’ I wonder if any of us could have done as well? [ .... and he had such an assignment, in California , and someone published it, I guess miracles do happen ! ... ] EXPLANATION OF GOD: ‘One of God’s main jobs is making people. He makes them to replace the ones that die, so there will be enough people to take care of things on earth. He doesn’t make grownups, just babies. I think because they are smaller and easier to make. That way he doesn’t have to take up his valuable time teaching them to talk and walk. He can just leave that to mothers and fathers.’ ‘God’s second most important job is listening to prayers. An awful lot of this goes on, since some people, like preachers and things, pray at times beside bedtime. God doesn’t have time to listen to the radio or TV because of this. Because he hears everything, there must be a terrible lot of noise in his ears, unless he has thought of a way to turn it off.’ ‘God sees everything and hears everything and is everywhere which keeps Him pretty busy. So you shouldn’t go wasting his time by going over your mom and dad’s head asking for something they said you couldn’t have.’ ‘Atheists are people who don’t believe in God. I don’t think there are any in Chula Vista ... At least there aren’t any who come to our church.’ ‘Jesus is God’s Son. He used to do all the hard work, like walking on water and performing miracles and trying to teach the people who didn’t want to learn about God.. They finally got tired of him preaching to them and they crucified him But he was good and kind, like his father, and he told his father that they didn’t know what they were doing and to forgive them and God said O.K.’ ‘His dad (God) appreciated everything that he had done and all his hard work on earth so he told him he didn’t have to go out on the road anymore. He could stay in heaven. So he did. And now he helps his dad out by listening to prayers and seeing things which are important for God to take care of and which ones he can take care of himself without having to bother God. Like a secretary, only more important.’ ‘You can pray anytime you want and they are sure to help you because they got it worked out so one of them is on duty all the time.’ ‘You should always go to church on Sunday because it makes God happy, and if there’s anybody you want to make happy, it’s God! Don’t skip church to do something you think will be more fun like going to the beach. This is wrong. And besides the sun doesn’t come out at the beach until noon anyway.’ ‘If you don’t believe in God, besides being an atheist, you will be very lonely, because your parents can’t go everywhere with you, like to camp, but God can. It is good to know He’s around you when you’re scared, in the dark or when you can’t swim and you get thrown into real deep water by big kids.’ ‘But.....you shouldn’t just always think of what God can do for you. I figure God put me here and he can take me back anytime he pleases. And...that’s why I believe in God.’ GONNA BE A BEAR In this life I’m a woman. In my next life, I’d like to come back as a bear. When you’re a bear, you get to hibernate. You do nothing but sleep for six months. I could deal with that. Before you hibernate, youre supposed to eat yourself stupid. I could deal with that too. When you’re a girl bear, you birth your cubs (who are the size of walnuts) while you are sleeping and wake to partially grown, cute, cuddly cubs. I could definately deal with that. If you’re mama bear, everyone knows you mean business. You swat anyone who bothers your cubs. If your cubs get out of line, you swat them too. I could deal with that. If you’re a bear, your mate EXPECTS you to wake up growling. He ECPECTS that you will have hairy legs and excess body fat.

Lifescope says, ...... “Believe, then you’ll know!” It was by faith that Abraham obeyed the summons to go out to a place which he would eventually possess, and he set out in complete ignorance of his destination. It was faith that kept him journeying like a foreigner through the land of promise, with no more home than the tents which he shared with Isaac and Jacob, co-heirs with him of the promise. For Abraham’s eyes were looking forward to that city with solid foundations of which God Himself is both architect and builder. For it is by believing in his heart that a man becomes right with God; and with his mouth he tells others of his faith, confirming his salvation. For the Scriptures tell us that no one who believes in Christ will ever be disappointed. Jew and Gentile are the same in this respect: they all have the same Lord Who generously gives His riches to all those who ask Him for them. Anyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved. For they don’t understand that Christ has died to make them right with God. Instead they are trying to make themselves good enough to gain God’s favor by keeping the Jewish laws and customs, but that is not God’s way of salvation. They don’t understand that Christ gives to those that trust Him everything they are trying to get by keeping His laws. He ends all of that. For Moses wrote that if a person could be perfectly good and hold out against temptation all his life and never sin once, only then could He be pardoned and saved. But the salvation that comes through faith says, “You don’t need to search the heavens to find Christ and bring Him down to help you,” and, “You don’t need to go among the dead to bring Christ back to life again.” For salvation that comes from trusting Christ - which is what we preach - is already within easy reach of each of us; in fact, it is as near as our own hearts and mouths. For if you tell others with your own mouth that Jesus Christ is your Lord, and believe in your own heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil. Taken from Heb. 11, Rom. 10, I John 3, The Phillips Translation, The Living Bible and The New King James.

I thought you might be interested in this information; especially, since the Congress is cutting our Social Security to serve these BIG TIME thieves in WALL STREET. Do you recall what Obama repeated over and over when running for the presidential office – “I’m going to bring Wall Street to Main Street”? I also researched the money given as foreign aid and the sums are also staggering. I didn’t include it in this memo because it is disgusting to learn where our money is going. Some of the money is going directly to countries that are in the terrorists lists. Can you imagine this? It seems like the morons in the legislature are not watching what they were sworn to uphold – America first before all of the thieving countries handouts. A Family Nutrition Center P.O.

Jungling We are living in a period of time when health and nutrition topics are spoken of regularly. Do we receive, daily, an abundance of fresh air, water, rest, exercise and quality foods containing health-sustaining nutrients? Today, health conversations, and some in light of the recent passage of the so-called Obama health care bill, regarding issues are commonplace in our society, news media, schools, businesses and among our families. No doubt, good health, or the lack of it, can greatly affect the way we live our lives. One important topic for optimal health is that of PROBIOTICS. While writing this information piece, I am sipping on Peach Kefir produced by Lifeway. This item was purchased at LOWE’S grocery store here in Alamogordo.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR The Peoples Voice Unlike any other religion Christianity is not a social order! It is an order of service to a lost and dying social structure. Early Christians knew that without the name of Jesus applied to the lives of every man, woman, boy and girl on this earth they would for ever be lost to the eternal pits of hell. To this end they went into all the earth. Turning the world upside down. Not one of them ever won a nation to Christ. Jesus came as king of Israel and his people loved him but he was rejected by the nation. Now he lives and reigns in the hearts and souls of people of every nation. Color, social order, creed or origin on earth because he said “ Come unto me all ye that labor and are heaven and I will give you rest. There was not one of the twelve that did not die a myrters death except for John and he was boiled in oil and banished to the isle of Patmos where he wrote the book of Revelation. The 11 all died in a strange land to bring this Gospel of peace and hope to a world without God or his word. Only a burden for the lost would be sufficient to drive them on because there certainly was no gain for themselves. Jerusalem was plundered and its people carried into many nations yet not one word was ever written about a homeland or about loved ones lost. For the most part they were alone in a nation who’s minds were blinded by the greed and lusts of the world, But they did have some direction from the past that was foolproof. Exodus 23=1-3 Follow not a multitude to do evil! And. 111 John 1=11 And their sound went into all the earth! There is a vast difference between sent and gone! And between social Christianity and our commitment to the work of salvation smoothies with it, too. Try counting 100 trillion grains of sand. That’s approximately the number of bacteria that take up residence in our intestinal tract. WOW! There are bad bacteria (microbes) and good bacteria (microbes) that make their homes in our bodies. Bad bacteria transmit disease while good bacteria aids in digesting food, destroys harmful bacteria, processes and manufactures vitamins and helps to eliminate toxic substances from our bodies. Our good and friendly bacteria are also called microflora. PROBIOTICS (i.e. “for life”) are dietary supplements that provide the same strains of the good bacteria or microflora that are found in the human gut. There is an especially good probiotic supplement that uses twelve selected strains. These strains undergo a three-year fermentation process which leads to optimal and very strong live beneficial organisms. Try adding friendly and beneficial probiotics to your healthy lifestyle. Invite several million friends over today, each day, and let them stay as long as they want. Our health is our individual gift and our individual responsibility. 4. The great commission is the most hated phrase of the Bible in all the world because there is no salvation in any other name under heaven. It is a message of condemnation to America as well as to Islam. The church was never social until it stopped condemning sin and took the attitude that the cross changed right into wrong and wrong into right. The blood that was spilled there was not that you could become a part of the heathens evils but that the heathen could become a new creature in Christ Jesus. It did not mean that the Church now had a new tithe payer. That could help pay the bills. How did a Nation so great as this nation ever pass legislation so vile as to use Christian tax dollars to murder millions of our own children and call it “ For the social good? America has become the cage of every unclean foul. The church forsook its mission of condemnation in favor of the social charm of degradation and shame. While the tea party blames the politicians and the republicans blame the democrats and Islam blames Jesus and the name of Jesus becomes the number one suspect. Cant we the people of God focus our attention on “why are we even here?” The cross did not make us into mindless robots! It did not change “ Follow not a multitude to do evil” We are now on new frontiers of Christianity. We face challenges tomorrow that we can not even imagine today and we are the conscience of our nation. We can no longer ignore our mission of condemnation! All of religion is not equal and judgment must begin at the house of God. We are what we are because the church structure has failed to preach this Gospel to every creature we have failed to mend our broken homes we have failed to stand in the gap and make up the hedge Our buildings and our standing in the community are not nearly as important as the soul of our nation or Eternal life of our people. Mr. President Obama: Shame Shame on you! For your information, Mr. President, many Americans of Spanish and Mexican Ancestry have died in wars for the protection of the US American Freedom and the 5. pursuit of happiness. They died as Americans and not as Latinos which you as a leader have inured upon us, which is as low down as anyone can imagine!!! My Ancestors were in this great open land establishing colonies ( 31 of the present states to be exact) while your Ancestors were being brought in slave ships from Kenya and other parts of Africa! 2. 6. Mr. President, We are no different then the rest of our society as Americans of Spanish Heritage and we are not of a latin language, as only 20% of the Hispanic youth speak Spanish much less Latin. Latin is the official language of the Vatican in Rome, which is the smallest city in the world occupy7. ing less then two miles ( 0.2 Sq. miles) and a population of 707. So, Mr. president, you don’t call us by a falsified Identity of Latinos and we will not clas- 3. sify you as a “mulatto” ( mixture of European Caucasian and Negroid) and perhaps we can get by until your term is up. I hope you will agree with me....A proud Hispano of Basque Descendancy, but never an Idiosyncrasy Latino!!! Four attachments for you to view.....

The Peoples Voice Do you know how to boil a toad? Dudley Brown Gradually turn up the heat and the toad won’t notice he’s in the stew pot. We are losing our fundamental freedoms and liberties in exactly the same way. For decades State, Federal and local governments have been slowly turning up the flame of tyranny, hoping that, like the toad, we’ll be oblivious to what’s happening to our freedom. Right now the jackbooted thugs at the Transportation Safety Authority (TSA) are leading the charge to shred your Constitutional rights. According to TSA, if you travel by commercial airline you’re now required to leave your dignity and your 4th Amendment protection against unreasonable search at home. In the name of “public safety” the Department of Homeland Security and TSA are forcing you to choose between two equally humiliating and unconstitutional options: · Submit to being bombarded with millions of particles of harmful radiation and allow TSA agents to view – and even save – computer images of your naked body. · Or, force yourself to undergo an invasive hands-on, rub-down search that amounts to nothing more than state endorsed sexual assault. If they can do this to travelers — grandmothers, young kids, pregnant moms — imagine what they will claim they can do to gun owners after some sort of “gun crime” or armed attack by terrorists. While our judicial system is based on the fundamental fact that you are innocent until proven guilty, TSA doesn’t see it that way. In TSA’s eyes you’re guilty until you submit to their authoritarian – and harmful – search program. Should you voice even the slightest murmur of opposition to this state-sponsored humiliation, you’ll be treated as a terrorist and potentially fined more than $10,000. Not to mention, they won’t let you board the plane to get where you’re going. This clear violation of your right to protection from unreasonable search and seizure has been endorsed by Obama’s White House and the lame-duck Congressional leadership. Their willingness to trample the 4th Amendment should clearly show how the Washington D.C. establishment views our other constitutionally protected rights. While public outcry to TSA’s new naked-imageradiation-or-grope search options has been loud, they’re digging their heals in. Gun owners like you and me MUST continue to put pressure on Congress to control the thugs at TSA. Please call your Congressman at (202) 224-3121 and demand they stop funding TSA’s Constitutionshredding, radiation-or-grope search program.

P C THE SPOKESMEN 7 The Peoples Voice SAD but true by Wes Bush THE SITUATION In Washington , DC , at a Metro Station, on a cold January morning in 2007, this man with a violin played six Bach pieces for about 45 minutes. During that time, approximately 2,000 people went through the station, most of them on their way to work.. After about 3 minutes, a middle-aged man noticed that there was a musician playing. He slowed his pace and stopped for a few seconds, and then he hurried on to meet his schedule. About 4 minutes later: The violinist received his first dollar. A woman threw money in the hat and, without stopping, continued to walk. At 6 minutes: A young man leaned against the wall to listen to him, then looked at his watch and started to walk again. At 10 minutes: A 3-year old boy stopped, but his mother tugged him along hurriedly. The kid stopped to look at the violinist again, but the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk, turning his head the whole time. This action was repeated by several other children, but every parent - without exception - forced their children to move on quickly. At 45 minutes: The musician played continuously. Only 6 people stopped and listened for a short while. About 20 gave money but continued to walk at their normal pace. The man collected a total of $32. After 1 hour: He finished playing and silence took over. No one noticed and no one applauded. There was no recognition at all. No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the greatest musicians in the world. He played one of the most intricate pieces ever written, with a violin worth $3.5 million dollars. Two days before, Joshua Bell sold-out a theatre in Boston where the seats averaged $100 each to sit and listen to him play the same music. This is a true story. Joshua Bell, playing incognito in the D.C. Metro Station, was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment about perception, taste and people’s priorities. This experiment raised several questions: *In a common-place environment, at an inappropriate hour, do we perceive beauty? *If so, do we stop to appreciate it? *Do we recognize talent in an unexpected context? One possible conclusion reached from this experiment could be this: If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world, playing some of the finest music ever written, with one of the most beautiful instruments ever made . . . How many other things are we missing as we rush through life. This article has been confirmed by Snopes.com to be true, At any rate we deem it valuable to remind us that life is short and for our own sakes we must remember to “stop and smell the roses”.

The Spanish are not given recognition or credit, but it was the Spaniards who introduced Steel, the horse wagons, horses, sheep, Cattle, and goats to the virgin land we now call “America” and left a tremendous LANDMARK of Cities, Towns, Villages, Rivers, Mountains and Missions that still continue to exist, all in Spanish and throughout the Spanish West, from California to La Florida, including Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico, Texas, and Louisiana. Thousands of Spanish troops allied with the Continental Army fought against the British in the Spanish declared War of 1779. There were 7000 prisoners of war who died in English prison ships in the New York Harbor; 4000 of them were Spanish Soldiers fighting for American Independence. Hispanics from Spain, the present day USA, Puerto Rico, Cuba, Santo Domingo, Venezuela and Costa Rica fought with the Continental Army against the British. Spanish Ports in Europe and the Caribbean were safe havens for harassed American Ships. The battle of York Town was planned by a Military Strategist, Captain Francisco de Saavedra, which was the turning point of the war for Independence. During the revolutionary War of (1746 – 1786) General Bernardo de Galvez commanded the Spanish troops composed of Puerto Ricans, Venezuelans, Dominicans, Salvadorans, Nicaraguans, and Mexicans during this Revolution. In this war, Galvez also provided guns, clothing, gunpowder, and medicine to the American troops, by flying the Spanish flag enabling them to pass through the British fortifications unimpeded. In 1785 George Washington, wrote a thank you letter to “Carlos III, King of Spain”, for his generous fledging support to the United States in which the King of Spain had donated 1,000,000 pounds to the Continental Congress towards the defeat of the British at York Town. CHAPTER 2 For at least five years, Spain had sent more supplies and money then had been requested, to help America succeed. already living in the present States of what is now California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, with a substantial support originated in New Spain what is now Mexico. Hispanics served in Confederate Units, such as the, Benavides Regiment Commanded by Colonel Santos Benavides and the 10th Texas Calvary and Commanded by Major Leonides M. Martin; many Hispanics also served in the 6 th Missouri Infantry and the Chalmetle Regiment of Louisiana Infantry and also the 2nd Texas Mounted Rifles. Other units with a large number of Hispanics were the Vigils Independent Companies, and Calvary in the Louisiana Zouaves, 1st Florida Calvary, The Spanish Legion, the Spanish Guard of Mobile Alabama, and four independent New Mexico Militia Companies known by their Commanders names ( Gonzales, Martinez, Tafoya and Perea). American Citizens of Spanish Ancestry have fought in all USA conflicts with high honors, prestige, and distinction and for which they deserve some kind of MEMORIAL which we the present American Hispanics should undertake….. Many of our Citizens of Spanish Descent have been outstanding for their contributions to the culture of our Nation in Medicine, the Arts, Science and Philosophy. Example: Rear Admiral Luis de Florez –organized a Naval Aviation Instruments Division in WWI and WWII, Doctor C.H. Mayo founded the Mayo Health Clinic in Rochester. Juan de Oro was a specialized Bio-chemist in Houston. Painter – Artist named Salvador Dali, the famous Pianist-conductor Jose Iurbe, the great Historians like Javier Malago and Guillermo Cespedes, and many more prominent Hispanics are found in the books of “Cerebros Espanoles en USA (Spanish Minds in USA) by Alfredo Gomez Gil. Many of the legends left by the Spaniards, continue to exist today, such as the Civil Code 1825 related to the famous “Quinta Partida” (15th book of Law),” the Recopilaciones de Castile” (Compilations of Castile), “Autos Acordados” (Judicial Decrees), “Lees de Toro” (Tort Laws). What most people don’t know, including politicians, and national leaders and those who dislike the word “Spanish”, so they use the term LATIN or Latino to classify a people of Spanish origin…in doing research I could not find a “NATION STATE LATIN”, and therefore I consider it to be a “MISNOMER”. I further asked the Library of Congress the following question: ***Where is Latin America??? I am unable to find a Latin Nation State!!! POTLUCK CENTER Alamogordo’s meeting place!

The individual family names like Aragon, Archuleta, Baca, Calderon, Chavez, Hidalgo, Rodriguez, Trujillo, Valdez etc., etc. are some of the oldest dating back to the 1500s… This said, it was in 1598 When Don Juan de Onate, ventured in the long journey from Nueva Spania what is now Mexico, to colonize Nuevo Mejico (New Mexico) Onate had 129 Spanish Soldiers and their families, including babies, a total of some 500 people with some, servants, packers, and a few slaves. Some were Mestizos, some were Mulattos and some Indians. They brought 83 covered –horse wagons with supplies, and steel farming equipment, 1000 goats, 2000 sheep, 1000 cows, horses and mares, a total of 7000 head of stock. They were practically out of water when they reached the junction of the Conchos and the Rio Grande west of El Paso where they rested for a week, with a thanksgiving celebration among friendly SICK YET? My findings are that “Latin “ comes from the ancient Latium made up by Italy ,France, Spain and Portugal established by the \Roman Catholic Church. Why do so many Politicians use the Latin term to classify people??? CHAPTER 3 *** Response from the Library of Congress!!! Dear Roy A. Archuleta: Yes you have a point . English is sometimes a very vague language and people use “bucket terms” to arbitrarily classify countries, and Geographic regions for various purposes. The following article, written by David Dressing in the Encyclopedia of Latin America may help classify the term: *** LATIN AMERICA, term commonly used to describe South America, Central America, Mexico, and the Islands of the Caribbean. As such, it incorporates numerous Spanish Speaking Countries, Portuguese-speaking Brazil, French speaking Haiti and the French West Indies, and usual implies countries such as Suriname and Guyana, where romance languages are not spoken. The term Latin America originated in France during the reign of Napoleon III in 1860s, when the country was second only to England in terms of industrial and financial strength. The French political economist Michel Chavalier, in order to solidify the intellectual underpinnings of French overseas ambitions, first proposed a “Pan-Latin foreign policy in the hopes of promoting solidarity between Nations whose languages were of Latin origin and that shared the common cultural tradition of Roman Catholicism. Led by France, the Latin peoples could reassert their influence throughout the world in the face of threats from both the Slavic peoples of eastern Europe (led by Russia) and the Anglo-Saxon peoples of northern Europe (led by England) in the western hemisphere, pan-Latinists distinguished between the Anglo north and the Latin south, which they gradually began to refer to as America Latina. From the French I’Amerique latine. The term came into general use in other languages….Sincerely yours/Hispanic Reference Team. LOC. As I study the old History of our Conquistadores, and Colonizers, our Ancestors had been in the New World some 225 years before the creation of the USA; at which time in its infancy, America wanted to populate the few States. When America opened it’s doors of immigration, England at the time had an over- CHAPTER 4 Indians (Mansos) and from there they moved the herds and the people north to san Juan Bautista ( the first Capital in New Mexico) arriving on July 11,1598. The Capital later was moved to San Gabriel in 1600. In 1610 Onates successor, Don Pedro De Peralta moved the State Capital to the present Santa Fe, where Colonies were already established… We need to not only remember the Don Juan de Onate long and harsh journey of our Ancesters who opened the doors to the New World, But we should also pay tribute to the brave men and women who came here to the vast open territory and nothing but faith and trust in the leadership of the Governador Adelantado and the Soldiers, for if it had not been for them, we ourselves would not be here….. When this Nation was created, the GOVERNMENT was to be the servant of the people, but today, Legislators have become extremely powerful and we the people are the servants to the Government, and have no Voice….Many Congressmen are dead men walking who have been in office 30 – 40 years, and the people will keep on voting for them and they will not give up their seats until death takes them, in the meantime they continue to fatten themselves with TAXPAYER funds. We need legislative term limits and put them on Social Security with the rest of the American People!!!!

Elroyo Archuleta [www.wherewecomefromra.com] 24 Equus Road Alamogordo, NM 88310 Ram3644@wildblue.net THE SPOKESMEN Hi Joe, Wish I could get someone to make my water fueled steam turbine engine that I received in a night vision. A few years ago. In the millennium we will use nature’s surface fuels that are abundant; and, water will be the most utilized of them. To use any of them efficiently we must master the use of the smallest quantities to bring about the most efficient use of their power quotient. One drop of water requires far less energy to explode into steam than a bucket full. Picture a flywheel (rotor) with drop sized ports drilled or cast into it at 1/4 inch increments all around the rotor. These will need to be oriented so that each is drilled parallel to the axis of the rotor. These rotors would then be arranged on an axle with a calrod crossing every third line of holes. The sequence of events when running would be to inject a droplet of water into each of the holes on one line. Then bring that line into alignment with the cal-rod (which is preheated to 275 deqrees farenheit. This explodes the droplet into steam which rotates the rotor to the next line of holes which are in the outer casing of the engine and act as exhaust ports for the steam. Properly arranged and adjusted the output energy should be at least 1.7 times the input energy and perhaps more. Wes Bush. Freely ye have received, freely give. Hi Wes, I wish I was set up to work on it and some other ideas. My wife Kerry had a dream in which a plane was flying off of the power from the condensate collecting on the wings. Indeed, there are ways to split H2O, hydrogen and oxygen, and get over unity power. I think these insights are showing us just how close we are to a major change for the better as the world system and the devil’s crew craters. I know of three instances where those with breakthroughs in this area have been murdered or died very strange deaths and a fourth case where an inventor was threatened. For the last one, my sisterin-law was a friend of the wife 9 of an electrician who worked for the inventor. He told me the idea had been successfully replicated. When I asked him if the threat came from an oil company he quit talking. Through some basic study, I have become aware of some of the conceptual thermodynamic ideas on this material. Karl Gauss, probably the brightest mathematician in the past few hundred years, proposed a specific mathematical model for energy over 160 years ago. Apparently the last term allowed for taking energy out of the ether. Riemann, Gauss’s number one student, developed a very clever non-Euclidean geometry and essentially derived the basis for Einstein’s E = MC^2 sixty years before Einstein got credit for it. During about 1870, Helmholtz, a German chemist, became chancellor of the leading German technical institute and hammered home the Second Law of Thermodynamics, ignoring Gauss’s equation. [Gauss only published when positive he was correct as far as is known.] It became heresy to depart from the 2nd Law and science took a backward turn. In similar fashion, In similar fashion, Clark Maxwell developed the theory for electromagnetics. His 20 equations, needing quaternion solutions, were oversimplified to 5 equations and the growth of electromagnetics was stunted. We are now coming out of this fog. I do believe the Church will inherit this wonderful knowledge and be able to put it to work. Just think, with small independent energy supplies fueled by the knowledge of God, power generating plants could soon be a thing of the past and God’s people could live anywhere on the planet without needing power lines coming in. That would bring prosperity beyond our wildest dreams. The technology exists to make superior construction materials from carbon dioxide taken from the air by tapping into such power. Our forests would remain in tact to enjoy their beauty. Any surviving politicians will need to find honest work. Bless the Lord, O’ my soul! - Professor, Joe Gaut What have we learned in 2,065 years “The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. — Cicero in 55 BC Evidently, not much.

Those who attended last month’s potluck luncheon at ‘Potluck Center’ were more than enthusiastic about Brothers of Christ International’s plans to obtain the former Elks Lodge on Highway 70 just west of Highway 54 and convert it into a facility to shelter up to 25 women and children and, seperately, 25 men; and to house a Gourmet soup, salad and baked potatoe kitchen with a comfortable dining area for the general public as well as the homeless. The hope is that Ken Larson, a minister to the homeless and downtrodden associated with The Worship Center here in Alamogordo will become an integral part of “WELCOME HOME”, ministering to the needs of those who seek shelter there. Ken, once himself homeless, knows first hand the frustration and hopelessness those experiencing it are wrestling with. Several of our Senators and Representatives have voiced their desire that the Department of Transportation consider releasing the building to WELCOME HOME early next year. Once released, the building will need major overhaul at an approximate cost of just over $100,000.00; however, with the help of an army of volunteers and with generous contributions of materials and supplies from businesses and services, this amount may be, to a great extent, offset until private grant money can be obtained with which to reward them. There are 4 1/2 acres of land accompanying the building which can certainly be put to great use. Since many of the homeless fear housing themselves within a structured environment, a large semi-desert tent area will be developed. The existing outdoor restrooms and showers will make this a highly used part of the facility, affording, for the first time, a proper place to care for some of the 50 or more homeless veterans roaming the desert. House of Prayer has done a magnificent job of helping these men with showers, clothing and a hot breakfast; but their facility is simply too small to offer them beds. Together, with the WELCOME HOME facility complete and operating, they will now be able to encouage those who will to ‘come in out of the cold’. Some have argued that it is not the collective, but the individual responsability of each saint of God to invite the homeless into their homes for shelter. In today’s world filled with crime and drugs, this is simply not practical. WELCOME HOME will institute a practice of requiring that all pockets and purses be emptied into a lockable bag upon entering the facility for the night. The bag will be placed into a locker until morning, thus eliminating much of the danger of drunkeness and drug use during the evening. Any unruliness will be greeted with a visit by local authorities. As a general rule, homeless facilities of this type experience very little difficulty maintaining decency and order.

He has wild hair, wears a T-shirt with holes in it,jeans, and no shoes. This was literally his wardrobe for his entire four years of college. He is brilliant. Kind of profound and very, very bright. He became a Christian while attending college.Across the street from the campus is a well-dressed, very conservative church. They want to develop a ministry to the students but are not sure how to go about it.. One day Tim decides to go there. He walks in with no shoes, jeans, his T-shirt, and wild hair. The service has already started and so Tim starts down the aisle looking for a seat.The church is completely packed and he can’t find a seat. By now, people are really looking a bit uncomfortable, but no one says anything. Tim gets closer and closer and closer to the pulpit, and when he realizes there are no seats, he just squats down right on the carpet. By now the people are really uptight, and the tension in the air is thick.About this time, the minister realizes that from way at the back of thechurch, a deacon is slowly making his way toward Tim. Now the deacon is in his eighties, has silver-gray hair, and a three-piece suit. A godly man, very elegant, very dignified, very courtly. He walks with a cane and, as he starts walking toward this boy, everyone is saying to themselves that you can’t blame him for what he’s going to do. How can you expect a man of his age and of his background to understand some college kid on the floor? It takes a long time for the man to reach the boy. The church is utterly silent except for the clicking of the man’s cane.All eyes are focused on him. You can’t even hear anyone breathing. The service can’t even proceed until the deacon does what he has to do. And now they see this elderly man drop his cane on the floor. With great difficulty, he lowers himself and sits down next to Tim and worships with him so he won’t be alone. Everyone chokes up with emotion...When the minister gains control, he says, ‘What I’m about to preach, you will never remember. What you have just seen, you will never forget. ’’Be careful how you live. You may be the only Bible some people will ever read!’ The Peoples Voice CITIZENS FOR PRACTICAL GOVERNMENT Encouraging The Exposure Of Truth Concerning Local Government SCENARIO: Judge ‘Glee’ and his ‘Glee Club’, the office staff that sets his docket and helps those summoned with fees, dates and times to appear. Having been previously arainged; and, having plead not guilty, it seems that our subject was summoned to appear for trial at 1:30 PM; but, in error, he presented himself to the court ‘Glee Club’ at 8:15 AM which is the time for arrainments, not trials. After carefully examining the summons he presented to the court clerks (‘Glee Club’), he was told to sit in the lobby until court convened. At 8:30 AM the doors were opened and everyone entered the court. Very shortly the bailiff ex- claimed, “All Rise.” , and Judge ‘Glee’ entered the court. Our subject was soon called, stepped up to the podium and was asked, “How do you plead?” This came as a surprise and, he blurted out, “Well, uhm, I plead (past tense) not guilty!” “Sit over there and the bailiff will give you a date to appear.” Confused, our subject waited a few minutes, only to be told to revisit the ‘Glee Club’ to receive the date. Upon approaching the clerks window, our subject was The above is an accurate account of an actual chain of events. Take note that no blame has been placed on anyone other than the subject of the scenario; however we need to look at these facts: 1. After examining the summons, why did the ‘Glee Club’ not simply inform the subject that he needed to come back and appear at 1:30 PM.? 2. With the summons before him, why did Judge ‘Glee’ not inform the subject that he was there at the wrong time? 3. Why is there no warning of impending arrest for such failure to appear rather than a rude arrest and a much too large bond for a seat belt offense? 4. Why did all of the bail bondsmen choose to withhold the subjects application for bond and say that he would need to be in jail 6 days? HAVE YOU OR ANY- I asked the Lord to bless you As I prayed for you today. To guide you and protect you As you go along your way.... His love is always with you, His promises are true, And when we give Him all our cares, You know He will see us through.

Never heard it put quite like this before RECALL NOTICE: The Maker of all human beings (GOD) is recalling all units manufactured, regardless of make or year, due to a serious defect in the primary and central component of the heart. This is due to a malfunction in the original prototype units code named Adam and Eve, resulting in the reproduction of the same defect in all subse- AIN’T COURT FUN quent units. This defect has Adam and Eve, resulting in the reproduction of the same defect in all subsequent units. This defect has been technically termed “Sub-sequential Internal Non-Morality,” or more commonly known as S.I.N., as it is primarily expressed. Some of the symptoms include: 1. Loss of direction 2. Foul vocal emissions 3. Amnesia of origin 4. Lack of peace and joy 5. Selfish or violent behavior 6. Depression or confusion in the mental component 7. Fearfulness 8. Idolatry 9.

Next, download informed that he would receive another summons by mail. A few days later, patiently waiting for the summons to arrive, our subject was startled by a loud knock on the door. Standing at the door were two officers who promptly handcuffed him and threw him into the holding tank where he waited 6 hours while friends frantically plead with bail bondsmen to make the $5,000.00 bond, only to be refused by some and told by others that the subject could not be released for 6 days. Finally political pressure was applied from above the court and the bond was made, releasing our subject who is a prominent, respected, hard working, elderly businessman with absolutely no record.

Too important not to share Evening prayer Someone has said that if Christians really understood the full extent of the power we have available through prayer, we might be speechless. Did you know that during WWII there was an advisor to Churchill who organized a group of people who dropped what they were doing every day at a prescribed hour for one minute to collectively pray for the safety of England , its people and peace? There is now a group of people organizing the same thing here in America . If you would like to participate: Every evening at 9:00 PM Eastern Time (8:00 PM Central) (7:00 PM Mountain) (6:00 PM Pacific), stop whatever you are doing and spend one minute praying for the safety of the United States, our troops, our citizens, and for a return to a Godly nation. If you know anyone else who would like to participate, please pass this along. Our prayers are the most powerful asset we have. Please share this with your praying friends. - Deb Shion TROPICAL SNOW Guess who the PHD’s were in the ads above?
