Health care for everyone…at a price.

May 28, 2009

Technically, I have free health care. Of course, in order to access it, I would have to drive several hundred miles and then wait in line for hours before seeing a physician. With gas prices going up again – its a much better idea to see a local physician and pay up front.

Also, IHS hasn’t always been kind to Native Americans, sterilizing them with false statements and without proper notification and all.  I believe that practice ended in the 1970s…just a  few years ago.

I wonder how long socialized medicine has been on the back burner though. The concept of a national ID number isn’t new, nor are medical data bases that can be accessed (presumably) by big brother since they own or will soon own control of the Internet.

I wonder how long it will take for big brother to decide who’s worth medical attention and who is not, or who has a right to procreate and who doesn’t?

But first things first:  are there 46 million uninsured Americans?  Read what American Spectator has to say.  Keep in mind, health care is NOT FREE, someone pays for it.

Will all our freedoms be taken away?

May 27, 2009

Big brother comes closer and closer with each new piece of Orwellian legislation. Do we own our own possessions, our minds, our hopes, and our abilities?

Some of us ponder these things -and wonder when big government will have all of us.

Big government is for spreading the wealth – as long as someone else pays for it.

Klavan, On the Culture

Quote of the day from American Thinker

WaPo and other fawning media outlets were also sure to include in their coverage Reid’s declaration that, “the best part of Barack Obama is his heart is bigger than any heart in the world.”

Either hyperbolic derriere-kissing or an indication that the Big O should get to a cardiologist. Soon.

Obama Blames and Divides

May 22, 2009

Isn’t it about time Obama stepped up to the plate instead of continually blaming Bush? Has any other president ever whined and blamed as much as Obama does? He’s showing his newbie status as no other president has done before him. Granted, he gets a lot of millage with his Bush bashing…from the Donkeys aka jackasses.

The candidate who vowed “unity” has so far done everything to divide the populous instead of uniting the country. A poll by Rasmussen back in March found Obama to be the most polarizing president since polls presidential polls have been in existence.

Janet Napolitano and her group deserve some of the credit for the division, of course.

More than one says, and I tend to believe it, that Dems are insane with hatred toward Bush. I’m no psychiatrist, but to keep that level hatred up is not mentally healthy.

I don’t hate BO – but I hate his policies and have problems with his radical appointees, and tax dodging cabinet.

Obama, it appears, never had the intention of uniting the country. Saul Alinsky was concerned with power –just as Obama is concerned with power. For power, Obama will throw anyone under the bus—like his typical white woman grandmother for instance…but you know, you’ve heard it before–its the Chicago Way. There are plenty of Chicago pols in the WH.

Say what you will about Bush, but he didn’t whine or cry or blame the previous administration. He didn’t travel all over the world apologizing for the USA. He stepped up to the plate and took the vitriol of the left without flinching.

It’s too bad Obama feels he has to put down Bush to raise himself up. It’s unbecoming in a president.

Right about now, I’d feel much safer if Cheney was my president.



White House Bullies show how it’s done!

May 14, 2009

Bullying from the White House

The Obama administration loves to point a finger at GW Bush and tell you how “different” their administration is going to be. MSM cheerleaders help them along with hateful and lewd remarks when anyone from the GOP makes the news. Fortunately, for us, they have celebrities like Jeannine Garafolo to show us what they’re really like…and Joe Biden, and Nancy Pelosi.

I wonder if Garafolo read Alinsky or does she just get her talking points from someone else? Either way, her remarks follow the Alinsky tactics.

We’re beginning to see that Obama and Bush may not be all that different. If anything, Obama’s Chicago pol training, along with Emanuel and Axelrod, has learned how to bully and bend rules when it comes to the Constitution of the United States. It’s no wonder he would choose “empathy” over law.

I’ve been saying for a while now, if you want to know Obama just read Saul Alinsky and you’ll have a good image. Some people are actually starting to do just that.

Here are some reads conservatives would do well to consider.

Documents confirm Treasury bullied banks

John Hinderaker-May 14, 2009

(During Bush administration) …meeting on October 13, 2008, at which they were told that their banks would be required to accept TARP money and give the federal government an ownership interest in their institutions, whether they wanted to do so or not.  http://www.powerlineblog.com/

Tincture of lawlessness – Obama’s Overreaching Economic Policies

By George F. Will-Thursday, May 14, 2009

But the Service Employees International Union collects nearly $5 million a month from 223,000 caregivers who are members. And the Obama administration has told California that unless the $74 million in cuts are rescinded, it will deny the state $6.8 billion in stimulus money.

[snip]

The administration proposes that Chrysler’s secured creditors get 28 cents per dollar on the $7 billion owed to them but that the United Auto Workers union get 43 cents per dollar on its $11 billion in claims — and 55 percent of the company. This, even though the secured creditors’ contracts supposedly guaranteed them better standing than the union.http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/05/13/AR2009051303014_pf.html


The Treasury apparently has CLOUT in capital letters. Having a guy like Geithner (my Turbo Tax made me do it) in that powerful position isn’t at all reassuring—but then neither is Nancy Pelosi (the CIA lied) as third in line for the presidency.

The more we see the Obama administration in action, the clearer Rahm Emanuel’s words become…”never let a crisis go to waste.”

Cheer up!  George Soros didn’t let it go to waste –he bet against the US economy and gained $2.9 billion dollars.  He’s having a good crisis.
