The Bird Feeder.. Just thinking..

Some Interesting Thoughts

I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled it  with seed. Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage of  the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food. But then the birds  started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and  next to the barbecue.

Then came the poop. It was everywhere: on the pat Io tile, the  chairs, the table...everywhere. Then some of the birds turned mean: They  would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my  own pocket. And others birds were boisterous and loud: They sat on the  feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night and  demanded that I fill it when it got low on food. After a while, I couldn\'t  even sit on my own back porch anymore.
 
 I took down the bird feeder and in  three days the birds  were gone. I
cleaned up their mess and took down the  many nests they had built all over the patio. Soon, the back yard was like  it used to be...quite, serene and no one demanding their rights to a free  meal.

Now lets see...our government gives out free food, subsidized  housing, free medical care, free education and allows anyone born here to  be a automatic citizen. Then the illegals came by the tens of thousands.  Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services; small apartments are  housing 5 families: you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency  room doctor: your child\'s 2nd grade class is behind other schools because over  half the class doesn\'t speak English: Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual  box; I have to press "one" to hear my bank talk to me in English, and people  waving flags other than "Old Glory" are squawking and screaming in the  streets, demanding more
rights and free liberties.

Maybe it\'s time for the government to take down the bird  feeder

It seems that everyone is owed something, or at least they think they are.  When we become firm in our policies and stop all the handouts,  maybe the magnet will turn off and the immigration will slow down.  If not, we are going financially bankrupt,  the nation is already spiritually bankrupt in my opinion.
Peace will not be found at a MidEast table. Peace began at a MidEast STABLE, but everyone seems to deny it.
We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.
Believing in  evolution is like expecting a tornado to go through a junkyard and create a Mercedes Benz on its way out!
If you don\'t stand behind our US troops, then please feel free to stand in front of them. Yea, that\'s what I thought..........
