CNS News: Sebelius Defends Individual Mandate; Compares Health Insurance to Buying TV’s

I am still reeling at the analogy between health insurance and buying a television, but you judge for yourself.   Ms. Sebelius actually makes what she considers to be a valid argument that there is a correlation between the two purchases, but you be the judge.  And this lady is our Secretary of Health and Human Services...........heaven help us.

TSA shuts door on private airport screening program

A program which allowed airports to replace TSA screeners with private screening companies has been stopped by Pistole of TSA.  He has denied at least one application and has said he will deny any others he receives.  Pistole says he sees no advantage to the program (I can think of about 62,000 reasons myself).  Florida representative Mica said he will investigage as the 3,700 administrators working for TSA who came up with this decision apparently to protect the jobs of the ballooning…

Daily Paul: Microchiping included in Healthcare Bill ?

Ron Paul writes a daily report and posts it on his site.  The report is not new, but it must be brought to the fore front again to remind us why this horrid health care bill must be repealed (and not just fixed as the tyrant in the white house wishes.  Obamacare has a section which outlines microchipping for all.  Not just older people who might stray due to memory.  This is every single person.  To refresh your memory, here is a link to the article by Congressman Paul, and below that I have…

Family Research Center: The Quam before the Storm

Lois Quam has been personally appointed by president Obama to head the Global Health Initative.  Ms Quam and Hillary Clinton will have a money chest of 63 billion tax payer dollars to use via the Global Health Initative to push abortion rights around the world and attempt to get pro-life legislation in the countries that are pro-life reversed.

American Spectator: Won't Somebody Please Help Frances Fox Piven?

Ms. Piven is a REAL living person, 78 years of age, who still teaches at City University of New York Graduate Center and still writes for The Nation.  This article outlines what Ms Piven, Richard Cloward, and Lloyd Ohlin wrote and accomplished based on their beliefs and little else.  Most of the writings and actions taken by all three of these folks are not based on statistics or even real people.  Apparently, Ms Piven is receiving death…

Big Government.com: Agenda 21, Parts 1 and 2

These 2 links connect into everything you want to know about Agenda 21 in 2 rather long parts but in a very easy to read format.  Rather good explanations about what to look for and what is being done to impose this system and what it will mean to us.  We are going to have to be ever watchful as some politicians apparently think they have the "right" to impose this UN program on us.............it may come down to having to ask how they feel about it when they run for…

The Hill: Reid: Gentlemen’s agreement does not cover healthcare reform repeal

Senator Reid is now saying he can't support or allow a vote on repeal of Obamacare since repeal would really wack seniors.  He has got to be kidding, but I am not sure who he thinks he is fooling.  For those seniors who are lucky enough to have kept their doctors, the services are now sub-standard for many (Reid touts the free health check......really).  Many seniors have lost their doctors and can't find anyone else who will treat them,…

TownHall: Debating the GOP Debates: John Thune Weighs In

NBC and Politico have decided they need the ratings and the bump in popularity and are offering to host the first republican political debate.  Are you as surprised as I am?  I guess NBC got sick of losing viewers and decided maybe there was something to this "fair and balanced" thing (but let's wait and see just to be sure as the far lefters won't be able to control themselves I am quite sure).…

Heritage Foundation: Obamacare’s Impact on Doctors

The democrats in congress and the senate and the president are always able to tell you amazing stories about what Obamacare does and in glowing terms.  However, there is a much worse side to Obamacare and conservatives and those in favor of repeal and replacement with market based solutions must begin to tell their stories about what is wrong with Obamacare and it's negative impact.  This is a short video, and the first of several Heritage…

The American Spectator: Texas Tea

Have to watch as new people of interest start announcing they will be running in 2012.   Michael Williams is a conservative and has also spoken at tea parties.  He has an admirable backgroud as well and is apparently pretty well known both in his state and in DC!  Here's hoping many more will step forward to run for both the congress and the senate. 

Well worth…

U.S. News: Obama's State of the Union Was Tantamount to Plagiarism

U. S. News did their homework and found that most of the SOTU speech was "borrowed" from a number of other people.  As the article states:  "If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, what can be said of plagiarism? President Obama’s second SOTU contained enough recycled ideas and lines lifted from speeches of others to make historians wince".   Very well put together article with links to polls or other related information.

 

I found…

Times Union: Jacksonville officials: Nonprofit didn’t pay building contractor costs

Riverside Avondale Development filed paperwork with the city indicating they had paid the bills from contractors, and they hadn't paid them.  The city has now released funds for one of the bills and is researching the other bill to pay as well.  They will be going back on the development, but in the mean time the taxpayers of Jacksonville on the hook for the cost of this.…

Times Union: Florida lawmakers turning toward pension plan cuts

Because our state, like the city, will be dealing with a rather large short fall in revenue, our state is now seriously looking to fix pension plans that have been approved in the past.  All of the folks that sat with unions and agreed to these unreal contracts basically knew they would never have to deal with the problems when they finally hit, so they kicked the can down the street to some unknown governor.  The process has begun at any rate, and this article details the…

Times Union: Mullaney, Moran spar at county GOP meeting

It was, I thought, a very interesting forum and as indicated somewhat heated.  I would say, the Times Union has left out that Mr. Mullaney was not involved in the union contract negotiations in spite of the fact Ms Moran keeps insisting he was (and apparently has made the statement to other groups as well), and Mr. Mullaney indicated which law firm was involved in the negotiations.  Apparently their is a feud going on…

RYAN NICHOLS - Hardened Criminal?? Seriously??

If you're not already aware. This is what's going on in DC while dangerous criminals are allowed back out on the streets.  It's horrifying that this is happening to our citizens and veterans for protesting the hijacking of our election process. This is still happening! They are STILL being tortured and treated like full on terrorists. 

You may not be aware of the typical things they're forced to go through...…
