POTUS BODY LANGUAGE UPDATE . . .
. . . and THE SALUTE THAT WON'T GO AWAY
In the course of my career I was trained to read body language. The inner soul speaks out - especially through the eyes, of course. A person's posture will betray that which they seek to conceal.
Will somebody educate the guy? American leaders do NOT kowtow to Oriental potentates.
This is how it's done . . .
What is General MacArthur saying here?
And what is the message from the Emperor of Japan to his people?

Nursing Home
An Arab family was considering putting their grandfather (Abdullah) in a nursing home. All the Arab facilities were completely full, so they had to put him in an Italian home.
After a few weeks in the Italian facility, they came to visit Grandpa. "How do you like it here?" asked the grandson.
It's wonderful! Everyone here is so courteous and respectful," said grandpa.
"We're so happy for you. We were worried that this was the wrong place for you, since you are a little different from everyone."
"Oh, no! Let me tell you about how wonderfully they treat the residents," Abdullah said with a big smile.
"There's a musician here--he's 85 years old. He hasn't played the violin in 20 years, and everyone still calls him Maestro!
There is a judge in here--he's 95 years old. He hasn't been on the bench in 30 years and everyone still calls him Your Honor!
There's a dentist here--90 years old. He hasn't fixed a tooth for 25 years, and everyone still calls him Doctor!
And me--I haven't had sex for 35 years, and they still call me The F**king Arab."

The Fortune Teller
In a dark and gloomy room, the fortune teller was startled by what she saw in her crystal ball. She looked up at her customer, sitting across the table. 'There's no easy way to say this, so I'll just be blunt. Prepare yourself to be a widow. Your husband will die a violent and horrible death this year.'
Visibly shaken, the woman stared at the psychic's lined face, then at the single flickering candle, then down at her hands. She took a few deep breaths to compose herself. She simply had to know.
She met the fortune teller's gaze, steadied her voice, and asked:
'Will I get away with it?'

A few more one-liners.............

182. I saw six men kicking and punching the mother-in-law. My neighbour said ‘Are you going to help?’ I said ‘No, six should be enough.’

197. A celebrity is someone who works hard all his life to become known and then wears dark glasses to avoid being recognized.

WEST-BY-GOD VETERAN
Harold Payne survived the hard, lean years of the Great Depression and combat operations all across the European Theater of Operations; severely wounded and captured in the Battle of the Bulge, as a Prisoner of War he survived illness and near starvation while men died to the left and right of him. Then he came home and did forty years in the coal mines of his beloved "West-By-God-Virginia".
Like we say in the Army: "Harder than woodpecker lips."
Harold Payne FINALLY recieved due recognition for his service & sacrifice in October 2008 - FORTY EIGHT YEARS after the fact! ! !
Talk about a hard life . . . I can't even imagine what this man went through - before, during or the forty years AFTER the great World War II . . .

NEW School prayer:
WRITTEN BY A 15-yr-old SCHOOL KID:
Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.
If Scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.
Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That's no offence; it's a freedom scene.
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.
For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all.
In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.
We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks.
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.
It's 'inappropriate' to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such 'judgments' do not belong.
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd.
Its scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school's a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen
