Assessors plan to hit the streets to begin revaluations in north Lamar County Monday, but the brand new House Bill 304 means they must give prior notice first.

I’ve been giving some thought to the way things are. Many people point fingers at conservatives and many point fingers at liberal democrats for all the problems we face. It seems that nobody wants to look in a mirror and point to the people really guilty for the problems we are facing. Actually, that person staring back at you from that mirror happens to be the guiltiest of them all.
You are all guilty of complaining about one thing or another, yet you go back to the voting ballot and elect the same people who you were complaining about. Those doing the most complaining are usually guilty of not voting at all. Yet it’s who ever is in charge at the time that is responsible for all the problems. It’s kind of like hiring someone to do a job and not telling them what the job is. You are too afraid or too lazy to write your representatives whom you elected and tell them how you want things done.
I don’t think it really matters much anymore. Most people now worship a television and believe anything that it spurts out. You have lost the ability to think for yourself and you now rely on someone else in the television to do it for you. You have allowed a liberal media to manufacture a false profit that you believe will change your life, and will.
In the future when you have lost your freedoms, have no money of any value, cannot own property, work only for the state and those who lead it, and live in a newly renamed nation and forced to learn and speak a new language, remember, you have zero right to complain. Why? It’s your fault! You always had the power but were too lazy to use it.
You should now think about how are you going to answer your grandchildren when they ask you why you traded away their freedoms.
The Revolution is coming...
If there is anyone out there that doesn't know this, this is the best visual presentation
I ever saw... Now don't be mad at old people, just remember who did this.......

Our Social Security
Franklin Delano. Roosevelt (Terms of Office March 4, 1933, to April 12, 1945), a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) Program. He Promised:
1.) That participation in the Program would be Completely voluntary,
2.) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual Incomes into the Program,
3.) That the money the participants elected to put Into the Program would be deductible from Their income for tax purposes each year,
4.) That the money the participants put into the Independent 'Trust Fund' rather than into the General operating fund, and therefore, would Only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program, and
5.) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income.
Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month -- and then finding that we are getting taxedon 85% of the money we paid to the Federal government to 'Put Away' -- you may be interested in the following:
Dwight David Eisenhower
34th. President, Republican,
Term Of Office: January 20, 1953 to January 20, 1961
Insert by Vincent Peter Render,
If I recall correctly, 1958 is the first year that Congress, not President Eisenhower, voted to remove funds from Social Securityand put it into the General Fund for Congress to spend.
If I recall correctly, it was a democratically controlledCongress.
From what I understand, Congress logic at that time was that there was so much money in Social Security Fund that it would never run out / be used up for the purpose it was intended / set aside for.

Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away!
And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!
If enough people receive this, maybe a seed of Awareness will be planted and maybechanges WILL evolve! .. Maybe not, some Democrats are awfully sure of what isn't so. But it's worth a try. How many people can YOU send this to?
Actions speak louder than bumper stickers.

Thank you Dana for doing such a good job on your research..All citizens of the United States need to read this. The quote from Thomas Jefferson says it all....
I wonder if these new evaluations will reflect the reduction in value of their property. You would think if the financial gurus think it is worth less, then the taxes should be less. I wonder if the assessors understand that?
That is a non-issue now. Thanks to our legislators all the values are now frozen to 2008 values. So, if you have made additions, or built a new swimming pool, etc., then your values will increase. Otherwise, we are all at 2008 values until 2012 (although some values will go down). I had the same misconception you did until I read the law. So, don't think your property values will automatically decrease. If you have questions, go to the assessors office and ask for the 2008 sales numbers in your area, that will give you an idea. Your elected officials at the Capital at work!!
I just got a reply from Congressman Jim Marshall. I contacted him regarding Speaker Pelosi's accusations about the CIA lying.
He says that he doubts “that ‘the truth’ will ever be known about a 6 ½ year old classified conversation, when there is no transcript, just some notes that have some provable errors in them.”
I wonder if they all think we are really that stupid. Wouldn’t it have been easier for him to just say that all the democrats have assembled together to try and cover this all up to protect Speaker Pelosi, and make it go away.
Jim, I hope everyone remembers this when you are up for re-election. I will definitely make sure your opponent has a copy of your reply.
