Don’t be fooled.

This is all just political wrangling, in an attempt to embarrass the Republicans to back Barack’s plan through peer pressure. The idea is if the media can raise the ire of folks against Republicans blocking the health care bill, they will be forced to sign it and give Barack most, if not all, of what he wants.

Unfortunately, some poor sap Republican or two will fall for this trick. Most likely, it will be led by John McCain. It is poor decisions like McCain’s that got us into this mess in the first place. McCain supported all the proposed bailouts by Obama, and probably will back ‘Stimulus 2′ or whatever stupid acronym Pelosi slaps on the thing. 

Look, there can be no health care reform until the cost of real health care is addressed. Why limit/address insurance if we solve the problem of the costs of the procedures and medicines in the first place?

That means Tort Reform, which the trial lawyers backing the Democrats do not want to address. It is easier to treat the effect, in this case the high cost of health insurance, than the cause, which is the frivolous and overwhelming lawsuits being filed each and every day against the health care provider. Obama does not want to address that, as people like his good buddy John Edwards got rich with pulling stunts like ‘channeling the victim’ and other courtroom theatrics. 

So, don’t be fooled. All Obama wants to do is control more of the economy under the thumb of the government, where he believes he and his cronies would make better decisions than the American people.

We already made a poor decision electing this man, we don’t need to keep proving his point.

We’re the TSA and You Can Count on Us! (to overreact to tiny threats and ignore big ones)

Sad, isn’t it, that this is the state of affairs we are in when it comes to the TSA.

Lemme give you a hint, the other agencies under Homeland Security are actually worse. Immigration is the one I’m familiar the most with. Someone try to get the H1B Visa information for the past 10 or 15 years from them. Good luck getting accurate numbers – for years, officials were giving out H1B Visas at a rate 4 times what they should because only 1/4 of the Visas were actually being recorded.

 That’s the kind of incompetence we’re dealing with. Surprisingly, I’m not blaming Obama, Bush, or even Clinton (when I worked there). No…this is a systemic problem with all the Homeland Security subagencies due to their bureaucratic red tape nightmare that ensures their jobs as government union employees.

This is why we cannot allow TSA to fall under union control. Right now, it works the BEST out of all the agencies because it isn’t unionized. Immigration is unionized, and that’s what got us the 9/11 bombers on student visas. 

His death was most likely the result of a misdiagnosis in the hospital’s ‘triage’ room, where they just thought he had a fever when, in fact, he was in the early stages of meningitis. That delayed him over 12 hours from getting the critical care and attention he really needed.

When Obamacare gets passed, this is the scenario you will see duplicated around the country, and that is why I must speak up about it. Honestly, it is no fault of the Triage people in the emergency room. First, it is most often a nurse doing the diagnosis. She is making her best guess as per the symptoms described by the patient or the patient’s friends or family. When we were at the hospital with Jason, there were at least two other people waiting to be seen in triage while Jason was back in the ER already through that process. It isn’t until you get back into the ER until the physician on duty can see you, and then can get ahold of the specialist on call.

But, let’s add something else to this scenario. Multiply the numbers waiting by a good factor. Don’t increase the pay or numbers of the staff, and in fact limit how much they can charge if the patients going through the Triage process are on Medicaid.  What do you have? Chaos. You also have an environment where many, many more mistakes in the initial diagnosis will occur. Even in a non-busy time, something may slip through like little Jason’s conditions when he was seen in the morning vs 8 pm at night.

How is this improving our health care?

If you want a more visual proof of what I’m talking about, go on YouTube and search for ‘Steven Crowder Canada’. PJTV’s Crowder went up to Canada to show exactly what the true health care system is up there. It not only is not pretty, but confirms what I am talking about in this post.

This is why Obamacare must be stopped, because in the end it will cause much more harm than good.

Obama’s "Christian" grandmother in Mecca for Hajj

from Dhimmi Watch by Robert

Why the deception? And who was behind it? AP? The Obama camp? Someone else? What was its purpose?

AP, March 5, 2008:

"In the world of today, children have different religions from their parents," she said. She, too, is a Christian.

Is she really?

"Saudi Arabia: Obama’s grandmother in Mecca for ‘Hajj’ ceremony," from AKI, November 25 (thanks to C. Cantoni):

Mecca, 25 Nov. (AKI) – The grandmother of US president Barack Obama has arrived in Saudi Arabia for the ‘Hajj’ or Islamic pilgrimage to the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, a Saudi daily said on Wednesday. Sarah Obama, 87, is being accompanied by a nephew and Obama’s cousin, Omran.

On Wednesday Sarah Obama was in the valley of Mina with an African delegation, according to the Saudi daily Okaz.

Obama, the mother of the American president’s father, lives in a village in Kenya and is one of the many guests of Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud….

For the uninitiated: you MUST be a Muslim to even enter Mecca. If you are a Christian, you are denied entry. If you are of another religion and found in the city, it is an automatic death penalty.

So, obviously, the Obama campaign and the mainstream media have lied about his upbringing yet again. They fabricated the story that Obama’s grandmother was a Christian during the campaign so we would be fooled. This is beyond simple deception now, and is even more evidence that the media is an active participant in a campaign of deception against the American public.

As a person who is extremely wary of anything ordered by Obama and his cronies, let’s look at the worse case scenario that this would entail.

First, it allows states to ask for money from the Feds to combat the illness. Not bad, until you discover this is money over and above what’s already been put into places such as spending bills and the stimulus package. 

It allows the restriction of large gatherings of people. Of course, that’s intentionally vague and can be used to prevent certain gatherings and allow others…say, like, prohibiting protests against Obamacare and Cap & Trade, but allowing SEIU and ACORN protests.

It allows quarantines of areas of outbreak. You know, like more conservative suburbs, or large businesses, like those owned by the US Chamber of Commerce members.

Do I actually think Obama and Sebillius would actually do such things? Unfortunately, you just can’t put this sort of thing past them.

I wish I wasn’t turning more and more paranoid about this president. I really do not want to think he is that petty, but then we see what he’s tried to do to Fox News and you realize he isn’t above being petty. 

MSNBC has crossed that line.

MSNBC decided long ago to embrace the liberal talk show hosts during Prime Time, thinking they would get good ratings against the conservative hosts Fox News was promoting. Now, why they went down this path in the first place is amazing. Back when MSNBC first started, and Microsoft still owned part of the channel, there was more of an emphasis on high tech, and more innovative ways to broadcast the news to a younger generation. I enjoyed MSNBC back then, when Brian Williams and Soledad O’Brien were the main stars of the channel. Yes, there was the typical bias of the media involved, but it was never ‘in your face’, just the usual standard, and subtle, bias.

Back then, though, Fox was not a competitor. The competition was the stiff tradition of CNN. Four things changed that. First, of course, was Fox Network who hired away Brit Hume from ABC to be their main anchor. Hume was popular on ABC as their main reporter, and turning him into an anchor, Fox hit gold. The numbers started flowing to Fox directly from MSNBC, hurting their bottom line.

Second was the shifting landscape at MSNBC. MSNBC was built entirely on building up Brian Williams to be the replacement for Tom Brokaw. When Brokaw retired, and Williams moved over, a void was created. To replace Williams, Chris Matthews moved up to the position. While Matthews was good on Sunday morning, however, his blatant partisan opinions could be hid. No longer able to do that, MSNBC shifted to the left.

Third was MSNBC’s attempt to compete directly with Fox News hiring Bill O’Reilly and Hannity & Combs, instead of creating their own path. To do this, they hired a ‘new and fresh’ personality, Michael Savage. Don’t get me wrong, I like Michael Savage, but MSNBC was not ready for Savage’s raw talking style which was much more confrontational than they imagined. Savage, also, has a temper and when that temper blew, MSNBC had to let him go and were now left with a massive void in their lineup.

That leads directly to the thing that pushed them over the edge. Having a very bad reaction to Savage, and now getting pummeled by the populist O’Reilly, who looks conservative to outsiders, MSNBC went and grabbed the biggest personality they could find who was available: Keith Olbermann. Olbermann, however, is a truther and to the left of Stalin in his political beliefs. His bombastic style on ESPN was the politically opposite of Savage, but he could fake being down to earth like the way O’Reilly comes across. So, MSNBC decided to pin everything on him. He lurched the channel in his political direction, forcing Matthews to follow along so he wouldn’t become second fiddle. For a time, Olbermann and Matthews were reigned in by Tim Russert, but since Russert’s passing, that’s no longer the case.

At this point, MSNBC is a unregistered propaganda arm of George Soros and his network of leftist organizations, all designed to create an environment for Soros to profit. The lies used by MSNBC to attack Rush Limbaugh recently came from one of Soros’s organizations. Soros was one of the investors helping to bid on the St. Louis Rams and wanted Limbaugh out of the way; that’s now looking to be the case as to what happened. 

So, what to do in order to get back at all of these individuals involved with Rush being pushed out as an investor?

Here is what I am doing, and why: Sunday night football is broadcast on NBC. Hosting the pregame, and halftime, highlights is none other than Keith Olbermann. Sunday night football has enjoyed high ratings this season so far, so I propose everyone upset at the fiasco this week…

Do Not Watch Sunday Night Football For The Rest Of The Season

This is just one game a week I ask you not to watch. Many conservatives love the game of football, like myself. Sacrificing all of the games is a bit much in our opinion, but if our denying NBC the ratings on Sunday night enjoyed by ESPN on Monday night, or enjoyed by CBS and Fox during the day, it sends a message equivalent to lower revenues due to the lack of ratings.

NBC is already losing money and they are looking for a new partner (since they either dropped or lost Microsoft after the first year or so of MSNBC). Losing money on what should be a moneymaker will speed up this process, and hopefully will bring MSNBC out of the leftist cesspool it has become by their new partner forcing changes to improve ratings.

It is an idea. It may not work, but it is something we can do that will show displeasure.

Just yesterday, I said I didn’t begrudge Obama going over to make the "final push", as I also thought it was a done deal. It would come down to Rio and Chicago, and by Obama going over there, it would be the straw that would cause the weight to swing to Chicago.

Boy, I admit I misread that. That straw turned out to be the straw that broke the camel’s back instead.

Obama went over and acted like the stuck up ass I perceive him as, and the IOC members watched. They had watched him before at the UN with his little nuke freeze leftover and had voted along with him, and perceived him as naive. He then waltzed over to Copenhagen, expecting the Olympics to be handed to his hometown of Chicago on a silver platter.

 He got wanged upside the head by that platter, and Chicago disappeared first off the beauty pageant.

Tokyo left the party next, leaving Madrid and Rio at the stage.

At this point, to me, it was a foregone conclusion. Rio may have a crime rate to rival Chicago, but it has both a natural and artificial beauty, and a reputation, not many can match. Plus, it would be the very first Olympics in South America, and now Buenos Aires can start planning for their 2024 bid.

The charges of racism have already started (despite the great Pele being on the presentation team for Brazil). The goofy liberals will now blame Bush for the loss, not the arrogance of Obama. Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck are already being blamed by the idiots on the left. The press is stunned as much as the crowd in Chicago was, who stuck around thinking the vote might be redone by the SEIU, Acorn and the Daley machine or something.

Thus, Rio wins the war for the Olympics. Obama’s and his wife’s speeches and attitude end up doing the opposite from what they should have done, and we have a new slogan for the 2012 campaign:

Mitt Romney 2012: He would have gotten us the Olympics

Preying on innocent children for any reason is despicable. I have always felt the cop-out plea of ’statutory rape’ when it is a true rape is a travesty. Pedophilliacs deserve nothing less than the death penalty for their crimes. The fact it is condoned in Islam is one of the two primary reasons I am biased against that religion (the treatment of women in general is the other). This support for Roman Polanski is absolutely disgusting and a disgrace.

By supporting this deplorable being claiming to be a human, the Hollywood crowd is just as guilty in my opinion. These people support the rape of young women. These people support the molestation of young boys and girls. These people need to be run out of town on a rail, at a minimum.

These people are simply a disgrace.

I am defending Obama on his going to Copenhagen in order to secure the Olympic bid for Chicago in 2016. Yes, I’ve said it. I think it is the right thing to do, and I think people who are bashing him for going are focusing on the wrong target, making those of us who do oppose nearly everything the man does look bad.

The Olympics is a thing of national pride. Getting the Olympics held in your country may actually be a money loser, as it was for China in 2008. However, you also heard how much NBC praised China on how everything was handled, looked, etc. Think about it, as it raised China’s reputation amongst the masses around the world, and actually probably helped their reputation in the United States as well. I know they are a totalitarian regime, etc. but I’m talking the general public sentiment towards China of those who don’t know the truth behind the scenes was raised. Even a conservative sportscaster I know, who went there to cover the games, came back with nothing but praise.

Now, skip to 2016. Do we want to have those same sorts of praises heaped again on the United States by the countries of the world? Those praises are going to get seen by the populace, even if the foreign press tries to couch it. Even biased press against us cannot help but show Americans rooting for the little guy like we tend to do. The United Kingdom is going to get a boost in 2012 in this area with the London games, possibly pushing them back to the forefront of European politics.

A lot of people who are griping about this point to the interview on 60 Minutes about Afghanistan, and the fact Obama is doing nothing while Americans are dying. He rode in on the coattails of ending the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and has ended up with 3 months to go until the highest death toll yet in these wars. But, three days in Copenhagen is nothing compared to the hours and hours going on talk shows, going to SEIU and ACORN-loaded town halls, inane press conferences, and other trips. Those three days in Copenhagen, I believe, will help the United States in the long run.

Keep the focus on the right issues. Don’t make a mountain out of a molehill. 

It is our duty, our obligation, to make damn well sure Obama is not the residing President when the Olympics comes to Chicago in 2016.

That is how we make our statement about Obama. Make sure he’s there only as a goodwill ambassador to the games in his home town.

Why do I say this?

[Excerpt of Zelaya's radio address] "At times, I ask myself if Hitler had no reason to have terminated that race with the famous Holocaust. If there were people what caused damage to that country, it was the Jews, the Israelits. I want, this afternoon, on Radio Globo, to say, with name and surname, who are the officials of the Jewish Army that are working with the Armed Forces of our country and which are responsible for all those activities of conspiracy happening to the president of the Republic [Zelaya referring to himself].

[Zelaya continues ...] "After I found out [about the "Jewish plot" against him], I wondered why we didn’t want that Hitler might have completed his historic mission [extermination of the Jews]. Excuse me for the suddenness of this expression. However, I wonder that after I came to know about the other things [Jewish "plot"]. I believe it would have been just and correct if Hitler had ended his historic mission."

If you have read this blog, you know I have a distinct hatred of fascism and its natural progression into the bigotry that defines nazism. Now, besides Ahmadinejad, who denies the Holocaust, we have Zelaya who supports its results. 

Obama supports this man without question, despite even the Congressional Research Service stating that removal of Zelaya was lawful.

Why?
