LEGAL VS. ILLEGAL

I received this in an e-mail and with the way our Country is being run right now I would pass it on.

LEGAL VS. ILLEGAL

You have two families: "Joe Legal" and "Joe Illegal". Both families
have two parents, two children, and live in California .

Joe Legal works in construction, has a Social Security Number and makes $25.00 per hour with taxes deducted.

Joe Illegal also works in construction, has NO Social Security Number,and gets paid $15.00 cash "under the table".

Ready? Now pay attention...

Joe Legal: $25.00 per hour x 40 hours = $1000.00 per week, or
$52,000.00 per year. Now take 30% away for state and federal tax; Joe
Legal now has $31,231.00.

Joe Illegal: $15.00 per hour x 40 hours = $600.00 per week, or
$31,200.00 per year. Joe Illegal pays no taxes. Joe Illegal now has
$31,200.00.

Joe Legal pays medical and dental insurance with limited coverage for his family at $600.00 per month, or $7,200.00 per year. Joe Legal now has $24,031.00.

Joe Illegal has full medical and dental coverage through the state and local clinics at a cost of $0.00 per year. Joe Illegal still has $31,200.00.

Joe Legal makes too much money and is not eligible for food stamps or welfare. Joe Legal pays $500.00 per month for food, or $6,000.00 per year. Joe Legal now has $18,031.00.

Joe Illegal has no documented income and is eligible for food stamps and welfare. Joe Illegal still has $31,200.00.

Joe Legal pays rent of $1,200.00 per month, or $14,400.00 per year.
Joe Legal now has $9,631.00.

Joe Illegal receives a $500.00 per month federal rent subsidy. Joe
Illegal pays out that $500.00 per month, or $6,000.00 per year. Joe
Illegal still has $ 31,200.00.

Joe Legal pays $200.00 per month, or $2,400.00 for insurance. Joe
Legal now has $7,231.00.

Joe Illegal says, "We don't need no stinkin' insurance!" and he still
has $31,200.00.

Joe Legal has to make his $7,231.00 stretch to pay utilities, gasoline, etc.

Joe Illegal has to make his $31,200.00 stretch to pay utilities,
gasoline, and what he sends out of the country every month.

Joe Legal now works overtime on Saturdays or gets a part time job after work.

Joe Illegal has nights and weekends off to enjoy with his family.

Joe Legal's and Joe Illegal's children both attend the same school.
Joe Legal pays for his children's lunches while Joe Illegal's children
get a government sponsored lunch. Joe Illegal's children have an
after school ESL program. Joe Legal's children go home

Joe Legal and Joe Illegal both enjoy the same police and fire
services, but Joe paid for them and Joe did not pay.

Do you get it, now?

If you vote for or support any politician who supports illegal
aliens...You are part of the problem!

It's way PAST time to take a stand for America and Americans!

What are you waiting for? Pass this on

Easter

We kicked off Easter in Eufaula last Thursday with a egg hunt. We enjoyed dying eggs with MeMe. Every year the preacher at First Baptist Eufaula and his wife have a egg hunt at their house with real eggs. I found in a magazine, I'm sure it was Martha Stewart, about putting rubber bands around the eggs and dying them different colors and moving the rubber bands around so you have two toned eyes. It turned out pretty good but I wouldn't recommend it if you have a 3 year old. He wanted to roll the eggs around in the color which was fine but made the rubber bands come off easily.

T & F working on the eggs...

So proud his train could haul the eggs...

T had this great idea to put Thomas stickers on F's feet and F loved it. He kept looking at them like they weren't supposed to be there and trying to get them off. Leave it to a 3 year old to know how to occupy a 4 month old.

I asked him to smile and this is what I get... Face 1

Face 2

Face 3

Face 4

T with the Easter Bunny at the egg hunt

T with his 2nd cousin who was in town also

Finding lots of goodies

I thought this was a neat idea. After the egg hunt, they get all the children to leave their baskets on the front steps and while the chidlren are enjoying refreshments they divide the eggs evenly so that the big kids don't get five times as many as the smaller children.

I love this one, just melts my heart!! So proud to show Daddy all he found!!

I had a brain laps Sunday and failed to take a family Easter picture. I didn't get any of T in his seersucker suit either. My sweet Grandmother was in town and I was having so much with her here I failed to take any pictures.

The best part of Easter had to be T's rendition of the Easter Story... Jesus died on the cross for me and 3 days later He BUSTED out of the tomb. He loves me.
