My letter to Obama

Last year wrote a letter to Obama and my first line was "Why don't you like me?"  Of course I received a form letter back.  I reprimanded him for stopping my increase on my Social Security for two years.

Re:

next we have to have that crime removed from his records or yes it could go on.  I have sent it to many officials including the Governor of AZ

I liked the simplicity and honesty of your letter! Perhaps it should be sent to the Governor or perhaps even better your congressmen, they can make a difference with the Feds! It seems like overkill on him being in Federal prison, I understand it's a Federal matter but perhaps the Gov't needs to look at these situations a little closer! The charges without some type of clarification or exception, for example, meeting requirements for said crime, or it seems it will follow him the rest of his life and this may be the being of a life long scenario of the Feds picking him up whenever he makes a move from residence to residence. Or perhaps it will end when the probation ends. Just a maddening situation for your family!  sam

Dealing With Similar Situation With My Brother

You are so right.  The troubling thing to me is that there are people in positions to help those in real need, yet that requires WORK!! Many are in jobs with bad character that mainly consists of laziness and incompetence.  The leaders are that way so the followers are that way.  They form a majority. 

The real problem that is faced is that their are more people in this country who are lazy and incompetent that the few who are dedicated to work hard, do the right thing for self and for the greater good.  That has been lost.

I will pray for you.  My family is getting together money for an attorney to get my brother out of jail.  His wife and daughter led to his arrest.  Now they are sitting like fat cats in the home he worked hard to pay for and is now restrained. 

All will end well for your son in law and my brother who are victims of a system that is not equal or fair for them!!

Here is to hoping that the powers that be do something about the situation and others like it.

Re: Lustor

he was caught in 2008 with possesion of a controlled substance (meth) it wasnt in his hands but on the ground, he served 3 months in the country jail.  When had been in AZ for aprox 5 weeks he was arrested because that crime is against the rules of the green card.  But the question is why didnt they do that to him almost 4 years ago instead of now when he has made good changes in his life.

Lustor

I've read parts of this story as you've share it with us and I have never quite understood why this is happening to him.  Is there more to the story because on the surface it certainly does sound bizarre.
