Our lives are in the balance

Currently on the floor of the Senate sits a 2074 page Health Care Bill euphemistically called The Reid Bill. You need to remember a lot of what is said here in my opinion.

Hans Christian Andersen and the home of deadly fables

I began reading an Associated Press Article entitled “UN says climate finale may have happy ending” and immediately thought good things were about to happen. So deciding it was my time to use Hans Christian Andersen’s tales to create my own fable, with a motive, I’ll continue.

He’s still weighing the options Part II,

As was the case over two weeks ago when the original HE’S STILL WEIGHING THE OPTIONS The ‘p’resident with a slight twist, when stopping at Elmendorf Air Force Base in Alaska stated to a Military audience he, “will commit more forces to Afghanistan only if it is vital to U.S. interest”.

He’s still weighing the option

It’s been only five weeks since the Washington Post, broke the news, General McChrystal had already submitted his assessment and needs, including strategies for the Afghanistan mission. The article was published September 21st followed by a FOX News report September 22nd. What a difference 36 days makes. When in doubt? The report was already in the hands of the D.o.D. (Department of Defense)

Obama asks congress to give seniors an extra $250 bribe?

Throughout various headlines in newspapers and other media around the country today we’re teased with “An extra check in the mail?” This is followed with the Associated Press report titled “$250 senior supplement urged-Obama seeks to counter lack of hike this year for Social Security” by Michael D. Shear. Sounds nice for the 50 million it would affect. But it’s not free and the cost could be devastating.

God Bless America

Did you wonder how many people would show at the rally in Washington D.C., or were you more concerned that what ever amount came it would be peaceful and presented in a manner that at least would be heard. Well, I wanted to be heard but was unable to make that trip.

Not Even Ted Could Foresee the Dismantling of the Republic by Obama

The day we heard the word of Ted Kennedy’s passing, pundits were renaming the HealthCare initiative of the administration after his stalwart ambitions to pass a one payer system (Socialized HealthCare). If passed, no doubt his family would look at the bill as an honor, but within hours, perhaps minutes of what many will remember for a long time after his 47 years in the Senate and the tragedies the Kennedy family have faced.

‘Cash for Clunkers’ a Drive to America’s Future

As we wind to a close, the newest and most innovative boost to the economy this Monday evening, (8:00 pm ET) only Democrats, three RINO’s, and the Obama Administration will take curtain calls to itself.

Senior Citizen’s “Death” Warrant

TITLE XIII—HEALTH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY Talk of the day is “Healthcare” or in today’s vernacular “Obamacare”. Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, along with their like-minded cadre, have pledged a one payer system we all can dub Socialization. (Government operated healthcare) A complete dismantling of current medical care, known as the finest and most innovative in the world, it would become only Part II of the destruction of our Constitutional Republic.

Congress vs. Test of the People

In the 1950’s and 60’s, one comedian stood out as a great storyteller. Myron Cohen (1902-1986), who came from the Borsht Belt, towered in the field of great comic “yarn-spinners.” The following is one such tale he told. I have paraphrased it and changed the names to protect the innocent.
