ONE MORE THANKS FROM THE EXPRESSION AWARDS......TIM COOK

All of the award recipients at the Newseum Free Expression Awards in April deserved their awards. They protect freedom of expression and of life in their own ways.  However, one of the recipients sticks out to me because I know that his philanthropy has touched my life in a special way.  

He has given technology to children that don't have a lot of access to it, particularly in school. It is vital for them to become as fluent as they can with this technology and even more important, for them to become the future creators of such technology - Things bigger and better than one could ever dream!

He has given them a gateway and hopefully, with the help of teachers, other guardians in their lives, and their own will power, they will achieve great things.


Thanks again, Tim!

UMM.....HEALTHCARE IS IMPORTANT, NOT A JOKE! PEOPLE'S LIVES ARE AT STAKE!

WHY WAS THE CONGRESS SO HAPPY THAT THEY PASSED A BILL TO REPEAL THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT?  WHY WERE THEY SO HAPPY THAT 24 MILLION PEOPLE WILL LOSE THEIR HEALTHCARE, INCLUDING CHILDREN, AND MANY MAY ALSO LOSE THEIR LIVES?!

WHY ARE THEY SO UNCARING AND CALLOUS WITH OTHER PEOPLE'S LIVES?  THE BIGGEST QUESTION IS WHY DO THEY WANT TO ANGER THEIR CONSTITUENTS WHO HAVE TOLD THEM THAT THEY WILL "REPEAL" THEM WHEN THE NEXT ELECTION COMES AROUND?

I'M SORRY, BUT THIS IS THE REPUBLICAN GOVERNMENT THAT PEOPLE HAVE FEARED WOULD COME TO PASS. THEY HAVE SHOWN THEIR TRUE COLORS AND NOBODY, NOT EVEN THE PEOPLE THAT VOTED FOR THEM, IS HAPPY.

HOPEFULLY THEIR SENATE COUNTERPARTS WILL GET THE PERIL THAT THEY ARE IN AND JUST HAVE SOME COMPASSION TO NOT LET THIS EVIL BILL GET THROUGH.  THE PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED IS THROUGH THE GREEDY INSURANCE AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES.  TELL THEM TO KEEP THEIR COSTS DOWN AND STOP GOUGING THE CONSUMER.  THE PROBLEM IS NOT WITH THE BILL ITSELF. THE BILL DOES NOT REGULATE THE COST OF THE INSURER OR PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES.

SO, PUT CREDIT AND BLAME WHERE THEY ARE BOTH DUE!

GOD BLESS AND SAVE AMERICA!
