On September 9, 2009 (9/9/09, no wonder something unusual happened, the truth in the House Chamber) Representative Joe Wilson, (R-SC) spontaneously, his words, shouted out, “You lie!”  Obama was speaking on healthcare and when he said t would not cover illegal aliens was when Wilson made his outburst.

Since that time Obama and the liberal left have repeatedly proved the Hon. Mr. Wilson correct in his assessment, “You lie!”

Now in a brazen example of Joseph Goebbels “Big Lie” school of propaganda, repeatedly makes the unsubstantiated charge the US Chamber of Commerce is funneling FOREIGN MONEY from FOREIGN CORPORATIONS, into GOP races.  Never ever ever have I heard an American president utter so many whoppers so often.  AND the real shame of it is he is just as contemptuous of the American people as Goebbels was of the German.

I hope and pray the American people rise up in their mighty wrath and indignation and throw those lying SOBs out of Congress and in two years do the same to this miserable, insulated, school boy trying to command respect and only commanding deserved ridicule.

I am updating the title of the 1989 James Spader, Andie McDowell steamer to show technology’s never ending advances.  If only our politicians could drag themselves into the 21^st century instead of wallowing in the third decade of the previous century.  What happened in the 30’s?  Why Joseph Goebbels happened.  He was the proponent of the “big lie.”  Tell any whoppers you want.  The more outlandish the better.  And then tell them again and again and again.  And soon the people believe them.  Oh yea, make sure you co-opt the media as well.

Goebbels would be so proud of President Obama and his merry band of accomplices.  Never in the course this country’s history have the American people been lied to so often and for so long.

“If elected I will sign no legislation before it has on the internet for five days in order for the public to view it.”  That little crock didn’t make it through the first week of his administration.  Did you see T.A.R.P. on the internet before he signed it?  Not only didn’t we get to review it on the internet, he and the congress, House and Senate both didn’t get to read it.  The same with the STIMPAK II.   This was rushed through so quickly, the money from STIMPAK I wasn’t all spent and he and the Congress still haven’t read it.

Close Gitmo.  Those people are terrorists.  They were captured trying to do harm to America, her citizens, or her allies.  That’s okay, they aren’t a threat.  We can send them to other countries. 

No we can’t they don’t want em either.  So where are they going to go.  The president says he has a plan.  His own party, I am not sure where Harry Reid borrowed the backbone from, but he told the White House there would be no dollars for closure of Gitmo, unless the Senate saw a plan, a plan that did not have any of these terrorist / war criminals coming to the US.  So here we are over six months into the Obama administration, and one of the Capstones of his campaign.  Something he pilloried McCain with saying the Bush folks did all this horrible stuff to these people, held them without the right of habeas corpus and was going to try them by military tribunal.

Never once did the thought that these WERE NOT United States citizens protected by our Constitution pass through his pointy head.  If he ever gave thought to the fact these people wished to do the United States harm, it didn’t affect his plan one iota.  Maybe he thought they would help him ruin America.  Because the one change he has been steadfast in promoting is the downfall of the United States of America as a free and prosperous nation. 

Let’s see if we can find some more Goebbels’ like lies.  Cap `n Trade.  This is the proposal, we can only hope the Supreme’s squash, that is designed to reduce carbon emissions and therefore reduce Global Warming.  Where do I start?  I guess with the premise that there is global warming.  NOAA the government’s own weather monitoring service has declared the earth has actually been cooling over the last 11 years, according to Deroy Murdock of the Scripps-Howard news service.

Does the truth dissuade our fearless yet clueless leader?  Heavens no.  Like Al Gore said the truth is inconvenient.  Obama keeps lying.  His minions of the quasi-science world have their nighties in a knot trying to explain this phenomenon.  The House under the leadership of that great scientific mind, Nancy Pelosi passed this odious piece of …legislation.  The country and the country’s tentative recovery hang in the balance of what the Senate is going to do.

But our 21^st century Joseph Goebbels has moved onto bigger and better things.  Healthcare.

Since Hillarious and Bill Clinton were shot down in flames in 1994 over healthcare reform, do ya think that is what she meant by landing under fire?  It was in Congress not Kosovo.  Any healthcare reform like the Holy Grail has taken on all the trappings of a quest.  46, 47 or 50 million people, depending on which fear monger you read or hear, are without health insurance.  That is not to say they are without healthcare.  Medicaid, an earlier boondoggle of the Dims, is designed to give healthcare to the poor.  Medicare, one of the survivors of the Truman presidency, is supposed to provide healthcare for the elderly.  So how many people in the US really have no access to healthcare? 

I have no idea, nor does anyone else, but it is a crisis that threatens the very fabric of America.  The economy, will meltdown faster than ice cream in Las Cruces.  The healthcare system will become paralyzed.  WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

More Goebbels.  What is the real objective of Obama’s fear mongering?  He wants to drive all Americans to a Single payer healthcare system, with government as the payer.  Did you notice one of the first items in the first stimulus package was computers and software for medical records, so all that supposed HIPPA protected information, could find its way to a federal database?  Maybe that is what they are going to use Yucca Mountain for, medical records storage for all 300 million of us, well except for the government employees, the representatives, senators, cabinet members, the Supremes, and of course Michelle and the girls and of course, the one.

Why do they need all these records?  So they can monitor us.  So they can see if we are too fat, smoke, don’t exercise, have bad tummies, and most of all monitor our aging and diseases.  You ask what’s wrong with that.  Didn’t you hear Goebbels say, “. . . we are not going to ration healthcare.”  Or words to that affect.  OH YES THEY ARE!  They told GM which model cars to quit producing.  They fired the GM CEO.  They tried to tell the banks they couldn’t pay back the T.A.R.P. money.  They tried to tell Ford they had to take loans, when Ford refused they tried to make Ford open their books to the feds.  So what is the truth?

Healthcare costs have spiraled out of control for a number of reasons, only partly related to the however many millions that have no health insurance.  Unlimited compensatory and punitive damages in malpractice cases contribute hugely.  Hospitals and doctors are forced out of business every year because of this.  Yes malpractice occurs, by both doctors and hospitals.  But because of greedy lawyers looking at fat settlements, 30, 40 or even 50% of which they collect as fees, generates a powerful lobby in favor of the status quo.  Since most legislators are lawyers, they are not going to slit their throats or the kick over their brother lawyer’s rice bowls.

Drug costs.  Prescription pharmaceuticals do wonderful things extending and improving the quality of all our lives.  No one denies that Squibb, AstraZeneca, Merck & Co., all of them have a right to get a reward on the products they develop.  However a 17 year monopoly seems a bit much.  I am reasonably sure that AstraZeneca makes a profit off the opramazole they sell.  Opramazole is the generic for Prilosec.  As the 17 years ground down, they came out with a “new” purple pill, Nexium.  Was it a major breakthrough in pharmacology?  No.  Actually it is only a stronger version of the Prilosec.   But they got their 17 year monopoly.

Ethical people coming together in good faith, leaving behind their own causes and prejudices, could over time come up with solutions to healthcare care cost reduction.  It would not be easy or pretty.  The alternative however is the passage of this piece of . . . legislation, that provides for even encourages our seniors to accept they are old and should die instead of using up rare and precious medical resources.  The president’s Chief of Staff’s brother had quite a bit of influence on what has gone into this bill. 

This is the same guy that believes, “When implemented, the complete lives system produces a priority curve on which individuals aged between roughly 15 and 40 get the most substantial chance, whereas the youngest and the oldest get chances that are attenuated ,” (attenuated = reduced.)

If that sounds a bit ageist, Dr Emanuel has a ready response, “Treating 65-year-olds differently because of stereotypes or falsehoods would be ageist; treating them differently because they have already had more life-years is not .”

Huh?  Correct me if I am wrong, but doing anything differently to someone because of a difference, is the definition of discrimination.  Can you imagine the outrage to his statements if you substituted, Blacks or Latinos, or Jews, etc?  There would be requests from outraged libs and conservatives alike asking for his head on a plate.

How productive is your grandma and grandpa?  Do you want the government making the decision as to what level of care they should have?  Should their quality of life be so degraded, by the denial of treatments available to you and I that they seek to die?  Barack Obama says the United States should be influenced by the moral compass of the rest of the world rather than our own sovereign institutions.  I am not willing to my fate or the fate of our parents and grandparents into the hands of men such as this.

The title Sex = the screwing we are getting, Lies = most of the words tumbling from Obama’s mouth and DVD = the actual record of everything he says and its contradictions. 

I really hate admitting when I am wrong but in this instance I think I am and unfortunately I think she is right.  This is from the New York Post on Monday.

JUDGES should interpret the Constitution according to other nations’ legal “norms.” Sharia law could apply to disputes in US courts. The United States constitutes an “axis of disobedience” along with North Korea and Saddam-era Iraq.

Those are the views of the man on track to become one of the US government’s top lawyers: Harold Koh.

President Obama has nominated Koh — until last week the dean of Yale Law School — to be the State Department’s legal adviser. In that job, Koh would forge a wide range of international agreements on issues from trade to arms control, and help represent our country in such places as the United Nations and the International Court of Justice.

It’s a job where you want a strong defender of America’s sovereignty. But that’s not Koh. He’s a fan of “transnational legal process,” arguing that the distinctions between US and international law should vanish.

What would this look like in a practical sense? Well, California voters have overruled their courts, which had imposed same-sex marriage on the state. Koh would like to see such matters go up the chain through federal courts — which, in turn, should look to the rest of the world. If Canada, the European Human Rights Commission and the United Nations all say gay marriage should be legal — well, then, it should be legal in California too, regardless of what the state’s voters and elected representatives might say. 

He even believes judges should use this “logic” to strike down the death penalty, which is clearly permitted in the US Constitution.

The primacy of international legal “norms” applies even to treaties we reject. For example, Koh believes that the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child — a problematic document that we haven’t ratified — should dictate the age at which individual US states can execute criminals. Got that? On issues ranging from affirmative action to the interrogation of terrorists, what the rest of the world says, goes.

Including, apparently, the world of radical imams. A New York lawyer, Steven Stein, says that, in addressing the Yale Club of Greenwich in 2007, Koh claimed that “in an appropriate case, he didn’t see any reason why sharia law would not be applied to govern a case in the United States.”

A spokeswoman for Koh said she couldn’t confirm the incident, responding: “I had heard that some guy . . . had asked a question about sharia law, and that Dean Koh had said something about that while there are obvious differences among the many different legal systems, they also share some common legal concepts.”

Score one for America’s enemies and hostile international bureaucrats, zero for American democracy.

Koh has called America’s focus on the War on Terror “obsessive.” In 2004, he listed countries that flagrantly disregard international law — “most prominently, North Korea, Iraq, and our own country, the United States of America,” which he branded “the axis of disobedience.”

He has also accused President George Bush of abusing international law to justify the invasion of Iraq, comparing his “advocacy of unfettered presidential power” to President Richard Nixon’s. And that was the first Bush — Koh was attacking the 1991 operation to liberate Kuwait, four days after fighting began in Operation Desert Storm.

Koh has also praised the Nicaraguan Sandinistas’ use in the 1980s of the International Court of Justice to get Congress to stop funding the Contras. Imagine such international lawyering by rogue nations like Iran, Syria, North Korea and Venezuela today, and you can see the danger in Koh’s theories.

Koh, a self-described “activist,” would plainly promote his views aggressively once at State. He’s not likely to feel limited by the letter of the law — in 1994, he told The New Republic: “I’d rather have [former Supreme Court Justice Harry] Blackmun, who uses the wrong reasoning in Roe [v. Wade] to get the right results, and let other people figure out the right reasoning.”

Worse, the State job might be a launching pad for a Supreme Court nomination. (He’s on many liberals’ short lists for the high court.) Since this job requires Senate confirmation, it’s certainly a useful trial run.

What happens to Koh in the Senate will send an important signal. If he sails through to State, he’s a far better bet to make it onto the Supreme Court. So Senate Republicans have a duty to expose and confront his radical views.

Even though he’s up for a State Department job, Koh is a key test case in the “judicial wars.” If he makes it through (which he will if he gets even a single GOP vote) the message to the Obama team will be: You can pick ‘em as radical as you like.

Meghan Clyne is a DC-based writer.

Between this appointment and Timothy Geitner’s lying and flip flopping on US being for or against New World Currency standard, not the dollar.  BTW  Geitner’s lying and flip flopping he learned at the hands of Mr. Flip-Flop himself, BO.  Obama’s turn toward the guard rail at the LEFT side of the road and the abyss beyond seems well on its way to change he believes in.

Well the 44th President of the United States is in his 44th day in office.  Reading between the lines in some discussions on the web and on news channels, I get the impression, there may be trouble brewing in Paradise.  After 44 days in office moderate Democrats, and there are some, ask the 18,000,000 that supported Hillarious and hubby Bill, are finally beginning to see the true BO emerge from the hype and glare. 

“The One. . . “  When Obama talks, “The Messiah’s absolutely speaking.” “The Saviour”   All of these were terms used to describe the bamboozling BO performed on the American people.  Speaking often and loudly on the “change” he was going to bring to Washington.  No more partisan politics.  I will bring all of us together as Americans he implied.

And in just 44 days cracks have begun to appear in his veil of infallibility.  His clay feet have begun to dance.  Promises made during the campaign are falling almost as fast as the Dow.  He has finally brought transparency out though.  Now even the previously blinded moderate Democrats, those who joined with moderate Republicans during the Clinton administration to bring about “beneficial” change and not this bottomless pit of fear and divisiveness, are seeing him in his true light.  His feet of clay tap dancing around the issues of honesty, integrity and unity. 

So soon they are going to repent of their previously “hopium,” as John Kass of the Tribune calls BO’s brand of demagoguery, induced delusions and return to the real world.  They are going to repent of their sins of believing in a false god.  They are once again going to embrace, reason, logic and real thinking and solve our nation’s problems, in spite of BO and Queen Nancy and the court jester Dingy Harry’s best efforts.  Together with moderate Republicans they will steer the boat back to the middle, from this torturous swing to the left.

If not, I fear for the future of the Republic.

The First Casualty of War Is the Truth;

Obama’s first Casualty was Bi-partisanship

“The sky will open. The lights will come down. Celestial choirs will be singing and everyone will know we should do the right thing and the world will be perfect!”   So said then candidate Hillary Clinton during the presidential campaign as BO tried to paint her as a part of the old-style partisan politics he was going to end when he was elected.  It is probably a good thing Hilarious is 15,000 miles away from Washington so no one can hear her chortling over the problems BO has had in his first 30 days trying to live up to “bi partisanship.”

Unfortunately for the American people, I have come to the following conclusion; President BHO is a coward.  Today during the post summit bantering  he said in response to a comment about bringing Speaker Pelosi into the loop on bi-partisanship, “I am not going to get into Congressional prerogatives with the Speaker.”  If I am not mistaken, the President is the “leader” of his party after he is elected.  And as leader he has a responsibility to “lead” in such a way as to be the most beneficial to the party and the country. 

If true meaningful bi-partisanship was one of BO’s primary goals in his campaign for change, then doesn’t he as leader of the Democratic Party, have the responsibility to tell the Democratic Congressional Caucus to behave in a truly more bi-partisan and democratic way?  That means if after quiet conversations with Speaker Skeletor, as my wife calls Ms. Pelosi, if she continues to run the House like she orders her servants around, there will be consequences.  Unless BO gets this woman under some kind of control, the Democrats better be a whole lot smarter than they have showed so far.

What could BO do to Speaker Skeletor?  Well there are a number of things I think he as leader of the party has the power to insist on.  He could have the appropriations committee derail funds for the Speaker’s pet projects in her district.  I am sure there are many House Democrats that would love to have some of the $2M for Mouse Hunt, to spend in their districts.  If that doesn’t work then he could ask for a vote of no confidence for the Speaker and send her back to the well, where she belongs,  And ultimately, if she still doesn’t conform, then he could direct the DNC to be a little less generous in funding her campaigns.  

“But noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,” as Joliet Jake said.  Our president is a coward.  The lack of moral strength he showed throughout the campaign over issues of race, campaign finance, campaign reform, and simply telling the truth, continues into his presidency.  If he can’t even buckle down and get some modicum of control over his party’s congressional delegations, how can we expect him to behave with courage when Joe’s test comes along.

so said the Attorney General to in a speech to Justice Dept. employees commemorating Black History month.   The Attorney General is the top law enforcement officer in our country.  You would think he would be smart enough to realize; A) private means PRIVATE and B) that he sounded like a reverse racist when he said America is a “Nation of Cowards” on race matters.

He said he was inspired to give this speech because of BO’s speech when he threw the Rev. under the bus next to Gramma.  Did it ever occur to him that maybe the reason we are segregated in our private lives is we don’t want Jeremiah Wright’s philosophy in our homes and lives.  Everyone raved about what a great speech BO made on March 18, 2008.  And BO swore he could no more disown the Reverend Wright than he could his own grandmother.  Six weeks later when the Reverend resurfaced at the National Press Club in Washington, BO pitched him under the bus.  Why did he wait 6 weeks to renounce the Rev. and his “racist and divisive views?”  He waited because he thought his mea culpa of March 18 had been swallowed and the issue was dead.  But when polls started to show that the good Reverend’s  rantings and ravings were starting to gore BO’s ox, on April 29, 2008 he jettisoned the Rev.

And the Attorney General has the temerity to call America a “Nation of Cowards?”  His boss is a coward, who only took a FIRM stand on Reverend Wright’s brand of racism when it was in his boss’s best interest and not a moment before.  The hypocrisy expressed at the top of the new administration has trickled down.

One final thought, when is Italian History Month, or Scottish History Month, or Anglo Saxon History Month?

I have finally gotten around to Senator Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.)  Senator Leahy is making some serious proposals to “investigate,” read witch hunt, the Bush Administration.  Senator Leahy may wish to reconsider this idea.  Since Senator “Tombstone” Burris, (John Kass’ name for the junior senator from IL because of his massive personal mausoleum in Chicago) has had to admit that Blago’s brother had talks with the Senator.  The subject of those talks was a possible $10,000.00 campaign contribution to or assistance in raising campaign cash for Blago’s war chest.

Governor “deadmeat,” another Kass nickname for Blago, has probably lots tell US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald on his way to a deal for info for time.  Blago knows he is going to go to jail, the question is how long does he want to serve.  I am sure Mr. Fitzgerald has many interesting questions to ask his former honorable governor.  Since Blago and Burris and Durbin and Emanuel and Obama all came from the from the same political day care center, the Crook County Democratic Party, I am sure others would be interested in hearing what Blago has to say about his mentors and playmates.

Now I am sure if Senator Leahy wants a truth commission for “fact” finding about alleged misdeeds during the Bush Administration, some people might be interested in a truth commission to find facts about Crook County’s performance in relation to ethics and legality.

This idea might even catch on.  Average American citizens might start demanding of their elected leaders proof of performance.  It could sweep the country.  While Illinois may the poster child for crooked and corrupt politicians, the other states have their share of dirt hiding under the rug.  In fact Senator, could Vermont politicians avoid mud stains from a closer look at this contract or that road project?  Actually Senator Leahy, this might be a very good thing for the country, sort of a national enema to purge us of corrupt, wasteful and criminal members of our elected bodies.

In fairness I must mention a Republican from Illinois who has been indicted as fallout from the Blago, Rezko and Levine investigations.  William Cellini, former Transportation Secretary under Governor Richard Oglivie, has been indicted on charges he attempted to extort a $1.5M contribution to Blago’s campaign fund.  Yes Cellini, a life-long Republican committed a crime for Governor “deadmeat.”  It is interesting to note, that Cellini is the Executive Director of the Illinois Asphalt Pavement Association.  He is also mentor to Ray LaHood (R-Peo.) the current Transportation Secretary in the Obama administration.  Ray LaHood is the man with his fingers on the purse strings of all those billions and billions and billions of porkulous road construction dollars.  As Fox says “fair and balanced,” we are being raped pillaged and plundered by both Illinois parties.  Think Blago doesn’t know?  Think Obama doesn’t know?  Why else appoint some central Illinois Republican hack to the job?

Go for it Senator, and since we are looking for opportunities at exposing nefarious gains from influence peddling, let’s start with Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, John Kerry, President Obama, and how many others that have received campaign funds or loans or re-fi’s from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  Can we do that too Senator?  Or is it just Republicans you wish to persecute?

Can anyone tell me what the domain names of the House and Senate are?  If I wanted to go to one of these chuckle heads websites I would.  I just want to send em an email without having to wade through their bulls**t which we are paying for to put on the web.

Thanks

Ah it was such a bright sunny day in Washington, DC.  The air was filled with anticipation as the new president was sworn into office.  As he gave his Inaugural Address, the air became filled with what John Kass of the Chicago Tribune calls Hopium.

It is the feeling of your spirits lifting and your mind freed from the rigors of the past.  It generates in the human heart such up-swelling of hopes and dreams for this new day in America.

A new president has been sworn in to “…faithfully execute the office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.   So help me God.”  He has campaigned on the platform of change because all of the ills in the country can be directly laid onto the shoulders of the previous administration. 

So what are his first changes?  Appoint plenty of people from the administration BEFORE the Bush administration.  What’s the matter couldn’t he find any of his own generation to help run the country?   The choices he made that were not in the Clinton administrations were none too good.  Three people, all prominent Democrats, if not wealthy, then as the rich like to say “comfortable.”  Everyone of them facing tax issues where they owed the IRS thousands of dollars.  Secretary Geithner got a free pass from the Senate, maybe he was too big to fail.  Former Senator Daschle and Nancy Killefer, a nominee to be “the chief performance officer” to “make the entire government run better, also failed the tax test.  Daschle who became a lobbyist for healthcare issues after losing his senate seat in 2004.  His relationship with Obama seems almost incestuous, as some of his staffers went to work for BO’s senate team.  “Is it any wonder that liberals don’t care about high taxes, they don’t pay em anyway.”  (blog quote)

The president apologized saying, “I screwed up.”  Unfortunately that is not the only place he is screwing up.  He has suspended the military tribunals in preparation for the closing of the Guantanamo prison facility and moving the alleged terror suspects to facilities in the US until they determine how to proceed.  I propose since John Murtha is so happy to get em out of Gitmo we put them in jails in his congressional district.  I am sure those gun toting red neck constituents of his would be more than happy to have them.  Maybe we could ship some to Alcatraz so Nancy Pelosi can share in watching over suspected enemies of our country.

If we are in a war on terror, then these people NON UNITED STATES citizens, have no constitutional rights.  They have rights under the Geneva Convention whether their home countries are signatories or not.  As prisoners of war, Military tribunals are the accepted arena for the types of cases.  To treat them otherwise is a slap in the face of every family member of a victim of terrorist attacks.  It is disgusting.  Those sailors on the Cole died defending the United States Constitution which BO also swore to “protect and defend.”  The oath of a sailor is little different than the oath of the president, I know I took the oath of a sailor. 

And now we come to the porkulous package as Rush Limbaugh termed the Stimulous package ping-ponging through Congress.  “Elect us, hold us accountable, and make a judgment and then go from there. But I do tell you that if the Democrats win, and have substantial majorities, Congress of the United States will be more bipartisan,” said Pelosi.

Now I may be suffering from old timer’s disease, but Webster says bi-partisan means two parties working together to find solutions to common problems.  To Speaker Skeletor as my wife calls her, seems to believe bi-partisanship means, ram it down the minority party’s throat and then let em vote for it, so when it blows up, and it will, the Dems can say the Repubs were “on board.”  188 House Republicans had the courage of their convictions to vote against the House version of the porkulous bill.  Who is Speaker Skeletor going to blame now?

The problem appears to me to be this; the Democrats don’t know beans about history.  In 1939 no less an authority than Henry Morganthau, speaking to Congressional Democrats said, “We have tried spending money.  We are spending more than we have ever spent before and it does not work.  We have never made good on our promises…now after eight years …we have the just as much unemployment as when we started … And an enormous debt to boot.” 

Is this going to be the Obama legacy? 

And this is just the first 21 days.
