Today (June 27), I turn 37 years old.  Which some people say is the start of being middle aged... I was born in the back seat of a 1969 Ford Galaxy on the way to the hospital.   Sorry I have been away so long but work, running this committee, and life in general have gotten in the way of blogging.  Here are some random thoughts on what has been going on.

Mark Sanford is a stupid disgrace.  Any man that cheats of his wife is a disgrace, but to do it when you are going to run for President is stupid.  I'm glad it happened in 2009 and not in 2012.   Good-bye Greyhound. You're gone!!!           

Michael Jackson is dead.  Why do we have saturation coverage of this?  Iran, North Korea, two bad bills on healthcare and energy, and this all goes away because Michael Jackson died?  The coverage should be on E Entertainment Television, not anywhere else.   Everything has become American Idol now.  Pretty soon getting on that show will be the only way to get a job.

ABC did some propaganda on how great President Obama's Health Care Takeover is.  If something is on TV but nobody watches it, is it really on????  ABC lost credibility a long time ago.

I'll be by you're blogs sometime this weekend.

President-Elect Obama and the Democrat Congress are still talking about the need for "Universal Healthcare".  This is one of the biggest lies ever told.   What we need is healthcare reform, just like we need reform in so many other places of government bureaucracy.  I just love it when Speaker Pelosi says "If you like your current plan, you can keep your current plan, the government plan will be for those who do not have a plan or for people who do not like their current plan." 

So Democrats are going to give people a choice. If people like paying $30, $60 or $90 s a week or more to their employer for their healthcare, they can still do so, and the government will be taking at least $150 out of the same paycheck each week to pay for everyone else who is under the "government plan".   Boy, that sounds good, sign me up for that........ 

On the other hand, they could drop the employer plan and join the "government plan' Gee, something tells me a lot of people would probably choose this option. 

The United States government cannot sustain a program that would be this big, even with taking $150 from every paycheck without rationing vital healthcare services.  For example just look at countries that have already adopted "universal healthcare" such as England and Canada, first, everyone that needs a live saving operation comes to this country to get it done because they only do so many live saving surgeries a year because the government cannot afford it.  Second, everyone that does not want to go to work every day in those countries simply drives to hospital says, there knee, shoulder, or head hurts so they cannot work.  It's all paid for, so why not?  Third, doctors and nurses in those countries are not able to keep up with the sheer number of patients, and the more patients a doctor has the less time and care the doctor provides for each patient.  Fourth, insurance that doctors have to buy in those countries has skyrocketed as well because once the government is involved, in come the lawyers. Insurance for doctors is already high enough in this country Fifth,  since the government is in charge of the entire system, the government has a say in life or death decisions in which a patient is "worth saving"  or not.  Considering the stances of most governments when it comes to life issues, that is a scary thought.

In other news… “Wasn’t that a dainty bow before the Saudi King?”   Hey TOTUS (not a typo), why are you lying? You bowed. It was a bow.   It was not a handshake.    President Bush made a mistake when he kissed him, but he did not lie about it afterword.   You are making it worse by not telling the truth.    Speaking of lying….

Vice President Joseph Biden, you cannot operate the way you used to. There are people who know who know you are a pathological liar, incapable of telling the truth if lives depended on it. Even Team Obama is saying the “meeting” never happened.  You should be ashamed of yourself. Oh, I forgot you are a Biden, you have no shame. 

If this is how President Obama handles “pirates”,   I can’t imagine what is going to happen if there is another major terrorist attack in this country.  Oh, I’m sorry Madame Secretary, I meant “man-made caused incident”

There are many Tea Parties happening on Wednesday. The one in San Antonio has the best theme music and web promo. I will be at the Boston Tea Party. We will be at the field in front of the State House on Beacon Street in Boston.  I will be wearing my colonial gear that I got in Williamsburg, VA a few years ago.   I hope every single one of you can get the day off from work and head to a Tea Party.   

Have a wonderful Easter, and remember it’s not about eggs and rabbits. It’s about Christ and his sacrifice for all of us. 

Through Christ our Lord, anything is possible.

It’s Saturday Afternoon… May God Bless America!

"The shroud ....has fallen, impossible to see the future is”.   I would have used the entire quote from Star Wars Revenge of the Sith and said "of the dark side" but then the liberals would have accused me of being a racist.  I made the same comment in 1993 when President Clinton took over with a Democrat Congress.  It's a reference to evil Democrats, not skin color, you idiots.
 

Now you are saying "Isn't evil a bit harsh, just because you disagree with someone politically does not make them evil".  I say it depends on the issue.  Some issues are black or white.  Oops! We can't say that anymore either.  It means right or wrong idiots; it has nothing to do with skin color.

Some issues are more than just right or left, they are right or wrong.   President Obama already demonstrated this week that he is on the wrong side of history and from my standpoint the evil side of the issues....

First, he signs an executive order to fund overseas abortions again with our tax dollars. A policy that seems to change every time the White House changes hands  from one party to another.  It makes me sick that my tax dollars are supporting genocide in foreign countries.  The destruction of innocent human life should not be paid for with my tax dollars.  That is evil, plain and simple.  Did you ever notice that the "peace" demonstrators that are so worried about the rights of guilty, terror-causing, human life never seem to complain about abortion?                  

Second, he signs an executive order which basically orders the closing of Guantanamo Bay before the end of the year.  White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs when asked "Where will you put the detainees?" He replied "I don't know... that has not been decided yet."  When asked if the country was still conducting a war on terror?  Gibbs replied “I don't know.... I will ask you to refer to the President's Inaugural Address on that issue...  I think the President made himself clear in the last speech."   The problem is; he is right.  The President does not care if a mushroom cloud appears over a major city in the United States as long as we are respected by Europe.  The President is more concerned about the adoration of the world, than the safety of the United States.    Putting the country you just swore twice to protect at risk of another terrorist attack is evil.    I am reminded of Pittsburgh Steeler Jack Lambert's famous quote "I'd rather be feared and respected than loved and adored".  That should be our foreign policy until the end of the war with radical Islam. All throughout the 1990's   the terrorists were at war with us, we just didn’t fight back until 2001.  They will always be at war with us, whether or not we choose to fight them...

Third, President Obama, along with the liberals in Congress and the media are already starting to squash dissent already.  Fox News reported this morning on Fox and Friends President Obama had the nerve to say yesterday "If Republicans want to have a seat at the table they better stop listening to people like Rush Limbaugh who just tow the line and start listening to me"   So now if you don't agree with the Administration you don't get a seat at the table.  That's funny; I thought the Democrat Party believed that dissent was the highest form of patriotism.   When President Bush went to war in Iraq, you could never question the patriotism of anyone who was opposed the war.

It is laughable that the same people who mocked and booed President Bush in his last hour as President now want no opposition for President Obama.  If you disagree with him "you're un-American for not wanting your President to succeed."

People that know me know I am a patriot. I love my country as much as the founding fathers did.  That is why when I see a bunch of radical extremists take over the White House and the Congress, backed by a bias media that will not tell the truth.  I do proudly stand in opposition against a force that could permanently damage the country.  I want them to fail so my country can succeed.
