Doubling Down on Death Care

Yesterday the Emperor paraded out a bunch of people in white lab coats – claimed them to be doctors, physicians’ assistants, and nurses – to publicly “instruct” Congress that the time for debate is over. Like a strict father to his petulant children he said (in a nutshell), “the time of tomfoolery is over so get to work and pass my bill.”

Where his clout comes from he hasn’t a clue. But in the opinion of this voting citizen anyone who votes for this sham of a “health care bill” is committing political suicide. I guess he hasn’t noticed but the primary season has begun and at-risk members of the House and Senate are going to be very weary about sticking their necks too far out. They have the fear of a fattened-up turkey on Thanksgiving in their eyes.

He arrogantly touted that this plan has the best aspects of both Democrat and Republican proposals in it. But – it really doesn’t. It has all the destructive aspects of the Progressives in it for sure, but nothing of substance from the right. The American people know this to be true and their Congress-critters know that their constituents aren’t as stupid as the Emperor hopes they are.

Senate Democrats don’t really want any part of using budget reconciliation to placate the far left in the House. Not to mention, they can’t until the House passes the already passed Senate bill which hasn’t a snowball’s chance in Satan’s bedroom of passing in the House.

Harry Reid knows that he’s out of a job come the end of the year so he’s willing to double down with the Emperor. Pelosi, she knows that the libtards in her district are just stupid enough to continue down the road to socialism even as those very policies are destroying their home state. So she’s comfortable in knowing that her job is safe – her job as a US Congress-critter that is. As for being Speaker? In her mind it has been a good 4 years,. But come January, she has to give up her private airline.

Any Senator up for re-election is toast if they sign onto passing this thing under reconciliation. Any Progressive Congress-critter knows that they are toast if they sign on to the Senate bill. Any moderate Congress-critter knows they are as well.

In short, I don’t think this thing has legs. Honestly, I don’t see it passing because too much power is at stake. Too many in Congress will see their political futures go by the wayside with their “yes” vote. The Emperor is still in there punching though. He’s already begun to hand out bribes.

From the Weekly Standard

Tonight, Barack Obama will host ten House Democrats who voted against the health care bill in November at the White House; he’s obviously trying to persuade them to switch their votes to yes. One of the ten is Jim Matheson of Utah. The White House just sent out a press release announcing that today President Obama nominated Matheson’s brother Scott M. Matheson, Jr. to the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit.

Think back dear reader to the 2006 midterms… Remember a term the left used to gain power by appealing to the politically apathetic? The term was “Culture of Corruption”. What do you call a Democrat Leadership in the House, Senate, and White House who buys votes for legislation using political payoffs, appointments, and graft? How about a Party who keeps disgraced members in Committee Chairs in the midst of ethics investigations? What do you call a Presidential Administration who appoints a tax cheat to head the Department of the Treasury? I don’t know about you but to me that defines what a true “Culture of Corruption” is.

It is up to us – WE THE PEOPLE – to do what we have done since they first set a deadline to pass this monstrosity. Make our voices heard on Capital Hill. The message should be loud and clear. Pass this bill and resign because come November – you are out of a job Jack.

The message to the incoming Congress should be just as clear. Repeal EVERYTHING this Congress has passed immediately.

Make no mistake – there is about to be regime change on Capital Hill. It’s going to happen. The question for Democrats is how much control are you willing to give up? The more of you who sign on the greater the Republican majority will be.

So go ahead lefty – sign on to a bill and a process which short circuits the American people. We kind of want you to.

Can Liberal News Media Sustain Itself Without Commercial Advertising?

It is well known that in the war that is cable news, Fox is destroying CNN and literally killing MSNoBodyCares. Evidence of this became overwhelmingly evident as I experienced first hand recently.

In my home the ONLY time MSNoBodyCares is EVER displayed on my television is during the Olympics. Earlier this evening, I was at my wife’s parents’ home and they were watching a couple of apolitical programs on MSNoBodyCares. After a while something began to occur to me. All of the commercials were promos for their own losing leftist political shows. Not one of the ads were for a commercial product or service. As-a-matter-of-fact, some of the promos were running back to back for the same show. How lame can they be?

There were ads for Rachel Mad-cow, Mr. Ed, Keith Olberdouce, and Chris “Thrill Up My Leg” Matthews; but not one single ad for potato chips, diapers, feminine hygiene products, soap, beer, or any other commercial product. How long can a “news” organization survive without commercial advertising? Just ask Error Amerika – the former home of Rachel Mad-cow incidentally. Error Amerika went bankrupt and recently ceased operations because liberal progressive political commentary cannot sell advertising because it cannot draw an audience.

Liberalism Progressivism DOES – NOT – SELL. As a political ideology Progressivism is diametrically opposed to business. Progressivism is Marxism Lite. Where Marxism achieves its Communist goal through revolution – most often times violent revolution – Progressivism achieves the same goal through evolution. Evidence – the 20th Century.

During the 20th Century, the United States evolved from a nation of rugged individualism into a nation on the brink of a pseudo-socialist dependency society which is only progressing at an increasingly rapid pace under the current Presidential Infestation with a massive Progressive Democrat majority in both houses of Congress.

MSNoBodyCares – and the whole NBC family in general – has positioned itself to become a de facto propaganda wing of the Obama Infestation. According to their ultra leftist political commentators, the Emperor can do no wrong while anything Republican/Conservative/Libertarian is by definition racist, obstructionist and standing in the way of progress. MSNoBodyCares is populated by on-air talking heads that do not reflect the ethnic diversity of the United States in any way. Mad-cow is Caucasian as is Olberdouce, Matthews, Schultz, and every other political anchor in their lineup. But yet they have the audacity to say the TEA Party movement is made up of sheet wearing racists? Remember what they say about people who live in glass houses…

ABC News has announced that they are cutting their staff significantly. How long do you believe MSNoBodyCares can afford to staff their “news” network if they continue to air programs without commercial sponsorship? General Electric is already attempting to unload the white elephant known as NBC. Could it be that GE’s embracing of liberal progressive politics is beginning to affect the bottom line?

GE and NBC dove head first into the man-made global warming agenda and now perhaps they are rethinking that whole boondoggle. But they cannot out-rightly admit that they were wrong. Oh no – can’t have that! Heads must first roll, management must change, a new owner will be found who will lull the apathetic public into believing that it never happened. And the whole idea that NBC was behind the global push to indoctrinate will be conveniently forgotten. But as of right now, they have no advertising. At least for their cable “news” channel. And without a revenue stream it is only a matter of time before GE decides to dump the left wing cable news channel. Or at least consider a realignment.

Obama’s Infatuation With Failure

It has occurred to me that the Emperor has an unhealthy infatuation with failure. Why do I say that you ask? He seems to favor European Socialism and every single item on his agenda follows the European model which we all can see is a complete and utter failure. Case in point: Greece.

Instead of running away from proven failure, Obama is rushing head-on into it. That is, unless the new found power of the minority and the American people find a way to stop him.

In Greece the national deficit is in excess of 12% of GDP. In the United States the federal budget deficit is nearing 10% of GDP. Excuse me but – DOESN’T ANYONE ELSE SEE A PROBLEM HERE?!?

In Greece the size of their national government encompasses nearly 30% of their labor force. Here in the States, the only sector of the economy that is growing is the public sector (the government). DANGER WILL ROBINSON, DANGER – DANGER – DANGER. DANGER WILL ROBINSON …

So the major question is why? It is part of the plan. Destroy America as we know it and rebuild it into the unachievable socialist utopia that Progressives Liberals Progressives Populists have been attempting to “progress” toward for over a hundred years. Or make us subservient to a world governmental body. Either way, it isn’t good.

Obama, Emanuel, Shaw, and Fabian Socialism in America [UPDATED]

On Friday, the Glenn Beck program on Fox News Channel introduced Americans to a term that has not been clearly defined by anyone in my lifetime. The term? Fabian Socialism.

Beck’s introduction to America of the term “Fabian Socialism” came in the form of introducing a segment in his documentary “The Revolutionary Holocaust: …live free or die” which aired on FNC during his normal 5pm time slot this past Friday. He was introducing America to the political beliefs of noted Fabian George Bernard Shaw.

Many in America are familiar with Shaw’s work in literature and stage. Many may even recognize his most famous quote…

“England and America are two countries separated by a common language.” - George Bernard Shaw

But how many know of his Socialist writings? Shaw wrote of his membership in the Fabian Society…

Now the significant thing about the particular Socialist society which I joined was that the members all belonged to the middle class. Indeed its leaders and directors belonged to what is sometimes called the upper middle class: that is, they were either professional men like myself (I had escaped from clerkdom into literature) or members of the upper division of the civil service. Several of them have since had distinguished careers without changing their opinions or leaving the Society. To their Conservative and Liberal parents and aunts and uncles fifty years ago it seemed an amazing, shocking, unheard-of thing that they should become Socialists, and also a step bound to make an end of all their chances of success in life. Really it was quite natural and inevitable. Karl Marx was not a poor laborer: he was the highly educated son of a rich Jewish lawyer. His almost equally famous colleague, Friedrich Engels, was a well-to-do employer. It was precisely because they were liberally educated, and brought up to think about how things are done instead of merely drudging at the manual labor of doing them, that these two men, like my colleagues in The Fabian Society (note, please, that we gave our society a name that could have occurred only to classically educated men), were the first to see that Capitalism was reducing their own class to the condition of a proletariat, and that the only chance of securing anything more than a slave’s share in the national income for anyone but the biggest capitalists or the cleverest professional or business men lay in a combination of all the proletarians, without distinction of class or country to put an end to capitalism by developing the communistic side of our civilization until communism became the dominant principle in society, and mere owning, profiteering, and genteel idling were disabled and discredited. - George Bernard Shaw[1]

A couple of lesser known, but graphically hateful, quotes were featured by Beck in “… live free or die”. The first he had on film…

“I don’t want to punish anybody, but there are an extraordinary number of people whom I want to kill. I think it would be a good thing to make everybody come before a properly appointed board, just as he might come before the income tax commissioners, and say every 5 years or every 7 years, just put them there and say, sir or madam, will you be kind enough to justify your existence. If you are not producing as much as you consume, or perhaps a little more, then clearly we cannot use the big organization of our society for the purpose of keeping you alive. Because your life does not benefit us and it can’t be of very much use to yourself.” – George Bernard Shaw

The second quote (which I’ve been unable to find independently to confirm as being Shaw’s so I’m relying on Beck’s confirmation)…

“I appeal to the chemists to discover a humane gas that will kill instantly and painlessly, in short a gentlemanly gas – deadly by all means; but humane not cruel.” - George Bernard Shaw

[UPDATE 1/30/10: 1452]This quote was cited to originate in a column written in Listener on February 7, 1934. The source of the information and citing? The below added video.

Wonderful guy huh? He wrote the bit about the “humane gas” several years before the Nazi’s rose to power the Nazis developed “The Final Solution” in Germany. - corrected 1/31/10 based on information found within the above video clip [/update]

How does this quote relate to what has been occurring in the United States? Well, particularly over the past year it relates to a certain move by the President to “fundamentally transform America” in a manner that I (and many others like me) consider to be harmful.

Buried in the Porkulus package and related directly to the Death Care bill was a “framework” by which a board would be set up to monitor and approve medical procedures under the nationalized health care system desired by the uber-left. The origin of this? George Bernard Shaw by way of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel’s brother Ezekial who wrote…

The fundamental challenge to theories of distributive justice for health care is to develop a principled mechanism for defining what fragment of the vast universe of technically available, effective medical care services is basic and will be guaranteed socially and what services are discretionary and will not be guaranteed socially. Such an approach accepts a two-tiered health system-some citizens will receive only basic services while others will receive both basic and some discretionary health services. Within the discretionary tier, some citizens will receive few discretionary services, other richer citizens will receive almost all available services, creating a multiple-tiered system.[2] - emphasis mine

But who gets to determine which tier an individual is placed in? To borrow George Bernard Shaw’s words, “a properly appointed board.” And the criteria? We’ll let Dr. Emmauel answer that question as well.

This civic republican or deliberative democratic conception of the good provides both procedural and substantive insights for developing a just allocation of health care resources. Procedurally, it suggests the need for public forums to deliberate about which health services should be considered basic and should be socially guaranteed. Substantively, it suggests services that promote the continuation of the polity-those that ensure healthy future generations, ensure development of practical reasoning skills, and ensure full and active participation by citizens in public deliberations-are to be socially guaranteed as basic. Conversely, services provided to individuals who are irreversibly prevented from being or becoming participating citizens are not basic and should not be guaranteed.[2] - emphasis mine

He goes on to say,

An obvious example is not guaranteeing health services to patients with dementia. A less obvious example Is is guaranteeing neuropsychological services to ensure children with learning disabilities can read and learn to reason.[2] - emphasis mine

It was the above quotes that brought about Sarah Palin’s ominous warning about Death Panels.

Dr. Emanuel and company would have us relegate our nation’s disabled to institutions like Pennhurst State Hospital. Not very “progressive” of an idea I don’t think. “Progressives” think of themselves as forward thinking, but institutions like Pennhurst are definitely backward thinking.

He and his colleagues call this “Distributive Justice”. Fancy word. But what does it mean? We’ll let Dr. Emanuel answer this as well in a paper he co-authored.

Allocation of very scarce medical interventions such as organs and vaccines is a persistent ethical challenge. We evaluate eight simple allocation principles that can be classified into four categories: treating people equally, favouring
the worst-off , maximising total benefits, and promoting and rewarding social usefulness. No single principle is sufficient to incorporate all morally relevant considerations and therefore individual principles must be combined into multiprinciple allocation systems. We evaluate three systems: the United Network for Organ Sharing points systems, quality-adjusted life-years, and disability-adjusted life-years. We recommend an alternative system—the complete lives system—which prioritises younger people who have not yet lived a complete life, and also incorporates prognosis, save the most lives, lottery, and instrumental value principles.[3]

Seems to me that someone has been drinking from the Fabian Socialist koolaid cooler.

Let’s keep in mind that Dr. Ezekiel has already been empowered by the White House to fill a post legislatively authorized by Congress in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (Porkulus). Initially, Emanuel was appointed as a “Special Adviser to the President in the White House Office of Management and Budget on Health Matters” [see also Czar]. Emanuel is the Health Czar.

Completion of the puzzle required passage of the Death Care bill to fully empower the Health Czar to set in motion the “properly appointed board”.

Many on the left consider Beck and people like me to be conspiracy theorists. Call us names if you will, but the fact remains that the pieces of this backward thinking EuroSocialist puzzle are undeniable. The difficulty arises when it is hidden within so many layers of liberal mumbo jumbo that many don’t wish to wade through. When someone does, however, they are called kooks and conspiracy theorists.

It is difficult to deny your own words. Words that you’ve said on film, audio tape, and/or had published in your name.

Many will question why I am writing about this now. To which I answer: The pieces of the puzzle are difficult to find, but they are there. One piece leads to another if you take time to find them. Unfortunately, the time it takes to discover the pieces and then fit them together is considerable. This is why those who are employing these destructive measures need to work quickly in order that you, the general public, are prevented from working their massive puzzle until it is too late.

Death Care may be dead on the surface, but that does not mean that the majority party won’t slip elements of the puzzle into unrelated legislation that once passed accomplishes their hateful goals.

Economic Recovery Or Economic Ruin? What Is He Up To?

Everytime the Emperor opens his mouth these days, he’s spouting the virtues of his economic recovery plan. Problem is, he doesn’t want recovery. He needs economic collapse in order to implement his real agenda.

A few days ago I mentioned a plan for the economy laid out in the 1960’s which is finally coming to fruition now. It is called the Cloward-Piven Strategy for Socialist Revolution. In order to truly understand Barack Obama, you must first fully understand his influences.

Obama studied the Cloward-Piven Strategy and fully believes in it. He also studied, and even taught, Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals which he also fully believes in. Obama is the marriage of both the Cloward-Piven Strategy and Saul Alinsky’s Rules. Everything that he has attempted to do since January 20, 2009 is in fully accordance with both.

But what are they? Good question.

From DiscoverTheNetworks.org:

Inspired by the August 1965 riots in the black district of Watts in Los Angeles (which erupted after police had used batons to subdue a black man suspected of drunk driving), Cloward and Piven published an article titled “The Weight of the Poor: A Strategy to End Poverty” in the May 2, 1966 issue of The Nation. Following its publication, The Nation sold an unprecedented 30,000 reprints. Activists were abuzz over the so-called “crisis strategy” or “Cloward-Piven Strategy,” as it came to be called. Many were eager to put it into effect.

In their 1966 article, Cloward and Piven charged that the ruling classes used welfare to weaken the poor; that by providing a social safety net, the rich doused the fires of rebellion. Poor people can advance only when “the rest of society is afraid of them,” Cloward told The New York Times on September 27, 1970. Rather than placating the poor with government hand-outs, wrote Cloward and Piven, activists should work to sabotage and destroy the welfare system; the collapse of the welfare state would ignite a political and financial crisis that would rock the nation; poor people would rise in revolt; only then would “the rest of society” accept their demands.

The key to sparking this rebellion would be to expose the inadequacy of the welfare state. Cloward-Piven’s early promoters cited radical organizer Saul Alinsky as their inspiration. “Make the enemy live up to their (sic) own book of rules,” Alinsky wrote in his 1972 book Rules for Radicals. When pressed to honor every word of every law and statute, every Judaeo-Christian moral tenet, and every implicit promise of the liberal social contract, human agencies inevitably fall short. The system’s failure to “live up” to its rule book can then be used to discredit it altogether, and to replace the capitalist “rule book” with a socialist one.

The authors noted that the number of Americans subsisting on welfare — about 8 million, at the time — probably represented less than half the number who were technically eligible for full benefits. They proposed a “massive drive to recruit the poor onto the welfare rolls.” Cloward and Piven calculated that persuading even a fraction of potential welfare recipients to demand their entitlements would bankrupt the system. The result, they predicted, would be “a profound financial and political crisis” that would unleash “powerful forces … for major economic reform at the national level.”

Their article called for “cadres of aggressive organizers” to use “demonstrations to create a climate of militancy.” Intimidated by threats of black violence, politicians would appeal to the federal government for help. Carefully orchestrated media campaigns, carried out by friendly, leftwing journalists, would float the idea of “a federal program of income redistribution,” in the form of a guaranteed living income for all — working and non-working people alike. Local officials would clutch at this idea like drowning men to a lifeline. They would apply pressure on Washington to implement it. With every major city erupting into chaos, Washington would have to act.

This was an example of what are commonly called Trojan Horse movements — mass movements whose outward purpose seems to be providing material help to the downtrodden, but whose real objective is to draft poor people into service as revolutionary foot soldiers; to mobilize poor people en masse to overwhelm government agencies with a flood of demands beyond the capacity of those agencies to meet. The flood of demands was calculated to break the budget, jam the bureaucratic gears into gridlock, and bring the system crashing down. Fear, turmoil, violence and economic collapse would accompany such a breakdown — providing perfect conditions for fostering radical change. That was the theory.

Ask yourself, “what is happening right now? What if any of this is the Emperor attempting to do?” The truth is, all of it.

I want you to think back all the way to January 20, 2009. I know that is a stretch for some of you. Especially those linking here from DRONE sites. But try.

The national debt on the day that Barry took over was sitting at $10.6 Trillion. A shocking sum to say the least. However, now take a look at the national debt today. In just one year, Barack Obama, with the help of Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, raised the national debt from $10.6 Trillion to $12.3 Trillion. To put this into context, when George W. Bush took office on January 20, 2001 the national debt was at $5.7 Trillion. Over 8 years in office the national debt increased $4.9 Trillion. In case you are keeping score that is an average of $600 Billion per year.

Barack Obama has raised the national debt $1.7 Trillion in just one year. The Senate is looking to raise the debt ceiling another $1.9 Trillion which the White House is projecting will last the government until June 2011. If that actually lasts out the year they’ll be lucky.

At the rate that Barry and this Congress is spending money, by the time Obama leaves office, if left unchecked, the national debt will be $17.8 Trillion in just 4 years. Bush added $4.9 Trillion over 8 years. Obama is projected to add $7.2 Trillion in half that time.

So what is he spending money on? Political payoffs and expanding the welfare class.

His agenda is destroying the ability for the private sector to conduct business. It is leading to massive unemployment levels which chases many from the middle class onto the government dole. Seems that he is attempting to collapse the economic system a la Cloward-Piven through expansion of the Nanny State.

Every time he proposes something to bring about economic recovery, he is actually proposing measures that would have the opposite effect. Ask yourself, what sense does it make to raise taxes during a recession? The short answer is – it doesn’t. But he is hell bent on allowing the Bush tax cuts which have kept this country from plummeting into a full blow depression to expire. In that one non-action, Obama, Pelosi, and Reid will be eliminating the 10% tax bracket effectively giving those at the bottom of the income ladder a 50% increase in their taxes. If he is willing to do that to the lowest of income earners, what then is he willing to do to those above the current 10% bracket?

From top to bottom, allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire will have dire consequences for this country economically. Why? Cloward-Piven.

Saul Alinsky said the ends justify the means. If his means are this dastardly, what then are the ends toward which he is directing his means? Full blown Socialism.

“Economic recovery or economic ruin? What is he up to?” Economic ruin. No doubt about it.

SF Chronicle is Delusional

The San Francisco Chronicle asked its readers a rhetorical question to which they have no desire to entertain the real answer. They asked…

If the late Edward Kennedy’s Massachusetts Senate seat isn’t safe for Democrats, is Nancy Pelosi’s speakership of the House safe?

The answer to their own question?

The answer is yes, unless there’s a Republican landslide in November.

Her ability to maintain the “speakership” (btw, that isn’t even a real word), is a bit more in doubt than they are allowing their brain dead libtarded readers to think. They erroneously suggest that Republicans need more than a 40 vote swing. Problem – it is actually now 39. Let us not forget that Rep. Parker Griffith has switched teams.

That error aside, let’s for a moment discuss the ramshackled way in which this Speaker, her Senate counterpart, and her President have approached the advancement of their agenda.

They promised transparency. That hasn’t happened. They are making deals in back rooms to buy votes from their own Party members. The whole C-SPAN promise was conveniently ignored by the Emperor, Pelosi, and Reid. They plowed ahead with their socialist fantasy they dubbed ‘health care’ which has nothing to do with improving the health of this nation and everything to do with government control.

People do not wish to live an Orwellian nightmare. We don’t want to live in a society that needs ‘Big Bro’s’ permission for anything. We don’t want him looking over our shoulders and we definitely do not want him looking over our doctor’s shoulder. We don’t want a ‘framework’ in place that would make a single-payer health care system possible. We’ve seen what that kind of system produces in Canada, the UK, and elsewhere. It requires massive economic resources from the government and creates waiting periods for treatment. Often times by the time treatment is approved it is too late to be of any good. Babies are being born in hallways, lavatories, and in the streets as women are turned away due to over crowding. Cancer patients are denied life saving treatments solely based on cost. WE DON’T WANT IT!

The people are tired of political payoffs which seem to be all the rage in Washington under this Speaker and this President. The $787 Trillion dollar stimulus was nothing more than political graft. In the Death Care bill, the Emperor backs the tax on so-called ‘Cadillac’ health plans of 40%. Unless of course, you belong to a union; a clear payoff to big labor for their political support. Contracts for infrastructure, which the stimulus was supposed to be all about even though infrastructure improvements represented a small fraction of the stimulus spending, were only to be granted to firms hiring union workers or paying union wages. More union payoffs.

The promises of ending the politics of cronyism were nothing more than empty words designed to enthrall the masses to empower an agent of ‘change’. Obama has more of his political buddies in his Infestation than any other I can recall. Valerie Jarrett, Anita Dunn (make no mistake, she’s still around), Cass Sunstein, and others. They are all his cronies. Remember the failure to detect gate crashers at the state dinner for India? The woman in charge? Yeah, she’s a pal of Michelle’s.

Speaking of ‘change’, during the campaign we asked, “a ‘change’ from what to what?” A question that went unanswered until the current President took office and began to show the path in which he would proceed.

In the beginning of the 20th Century, a political ideology began to grow called the Progressive Movement. It encompassed not just one of the dominant political parties, but elements of both. Teddy Roosevelt, a Republican, was entranced by this new way of thinking as was Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D. Roosevelt (both Democrats).

Progressivism is a way of thinking that is governed by a progression toward another political ideology that lies in wait. A cancer willing to corrupt all that is good in order to replace it with an evil so great that it threatened to encompass the world. Some call it Socialism, others Communism, but at the heart of it all is Marxism.

The Marxist/Socialist/Communist ideology is all one in the same. It has been the cause of more death and destruction on this planet than any other ideology in the history of the world. At its heart, is control. Because the only way to make everyone truly equal, man’s inherent free-will must be removed. The President’s Death Care bill installs a ‘framework’ to do just that.

Obama, Pelosi, and Reid are Progressives. They are not by any stretch of the imagination Democratic. They and their kind have infiltrated the Democrat Party, taken up residence, and now dominate their agenda. The Democrat Party in the past couple of decades have adopted the platform of the Progressive movement and is now, due to their overwhelming majorities in both houses of Congress and the Presidency, poised to implement all that they need to take total control.

But the American people have at last caught on. They have risen up and begun to speak. They are putting Progressives in both political Parties on notice. “We reject your agenda!”

The complaint main stream media, the literal propaganda machine for this President and his Progressive agenda, attempted to mask the importance of the popular uprising of 2009. The Tea Party Movement sent shock-waves through the political spectrum and many in the Republican Party took notice. Some are still clinging to their own brand of Progressivism but most have been awakened to the Will of The People.

The People reject the fiscal irresponsibility that is being utilized by the Progressives to destroy the economy of the United States. The Progressives need the economy to collapse in order to respond to the emergency. The Cloward-Piven Strategy to implement Socialist Revolution.

Cloward-Piven is a strategy for forcing political change through orchestrated crisis.

They don’t even attempt to hide it any longer. Every action that this Infestation, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid go forward with (Progress) is in direct adherence to the strategy outlined by Cloward and Piven.

First proposed in 1966 and named after Columbia University sociologists Richard Andrew Cloward and his wife Frances Fox Piven (today Piven is an honorary chair for the Democratic Socialists of America), the “Cloward-Piven Strategy” seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.

This has been exposed and The People are wise. We recognize the “trojan horse” named Obama and we do not like what he’s attempting to do. This caused a rise in The People that the msm attempted to categorize as a “right wing” racist astroturfed political campaign when in actuality many life-long Democrats, Independents, and (and this really kills them) MINORITIES are taking part.

So no San Francisco Chronicle, Pelosi’s “speakership” is not safe. She will more than likely not be returning to the big chair come January, 2011 because the people are on the cusp of revolution. Not the revolution outlined by those two monsters Cloward and Piven but a second American Revolution. And the weapons of this revolution are the ballot boxes. We saw that in Massachusetts with the election of Scott Brown.

How can a Republican win the seat held by a life-long Progressive for over 40 years? And do so when his Party only represents 12% of registered voters in his state? The only answer is revolution. Republicans, Democrats, and (more importantly) Independents at the local and state levels are going to lead this revolution and those who do not adhere to the wishes of the electorate will be finding themselves drifting in the abyss of political irrelevancy.

America wants a return to the principles upon which this nation was founded. Americans of all walks of life understand that the federal government is too big and doomed to failure should it continue to grow as the Cloward-Piven Progressives in charge are directing. The American People understand that there is only 1 corporation that is “too big to fail” and that corporation is the United States of America. And we are all stockholders.

The only question remains is, can the Republicans do any better with The People’s trust? They certainly cannot do any worse.

Obama, Congress, Health Care, CSPAN, And An Hour

During the 2008 Presidential Election cycle, then Senator Obama vowed that if elected and going forward with his health care plan, the public would be invited to the table. He was recorded on film 8 times making a promise to televise the process on CSPAN. His stated goal? So that the American people could see if their elected officials were working for them or for the insurance and drug companies.

Fast forward to reality.

CSPAN has been locked out since the issue hit Capital Hill. At no time during the process has there been one hearing, one meeting, or one policy discussion about health care covered by CSPAN or the White House Press Pool. Yesterday, under increased pressure from CSPAN and other media outlets normally friendly to the Obama Infestation, the Emperor finally capitulated and invited CSPAN to cover a policy meeting aimed at reconciling the House and Senate versions of Obamacare. But there was a catch. CSPAN’s invitation was for an hour’s worth of coverage. In other words – an hour long photo-op paid for by the nation’s cable industry and ostensibly – their customers.

I can just imagine the funding disclaimer on that CSPAN program…

This program brought to you by the magnificent generosity of His Imperial Majesty Emperor Barry Obama, Supreme Ruler of the 57 states and the District of Columbia. And by… Nancy Pelosi who reminds you that this has been the most open process in history… And by… BigPHARMA stupidly financing trial lawyers with their support of Obamacare… And by… the AMA, AARP, SEIU, ACORN, and the nation’s health insurance agencies who all stand to gain financially through the implementation of federal mandated health care coverage. And finally… By the nation’s cable television providers.

After the disclaimer there will be approximately 56 minutes of introductions of the participants and then the hour will be over. So much for sunshine laws.

Portman Leading Polls In Ohio Senate Race

In less than 11 months, this nation will again go to the polls and cast ballots which will be instrumental to the future of the Republic. The question that will be answered on November 2nd will be…

Does this nation wish to continue down the Obama road toward socialism reminiscent of the former Soviet Union? Or does this nation wish to be the great and powerful champion of freedom as it has traditionally been?

The answers will come in the form of who you choose to represent you at the state and federal levels. Candidates for governor, senator, and congressman are all looking for your approval and those you choose will be endowed, through your choice, to shape the direction of this country and answer the above question.

In Ohio, Rob Portman is seeking to fill the soon to be vacated Senate seat of retiring RINO George Voinovich. According to RedState.com and the Dayton Daily News, Portman is leading both Democrat hopefuls in the polls.

Rob Portman US Senate Campaign Update

(NOTE: Click here to watch video)

Portman focused on jobs and getting Washington out of the way.

Posted by Kevin Holtsberry | RedState.com

I had the chance to stop by the new campaign headquarters of Rob Portman today as they kick their US Senate campaign into full gear in 2010.

Portman was kind enough to take a moment to give me an update which I captured with my handy-dandy Flip Video camera.

Rasmussen in early December reported the following:

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in the state shows Portman now leading Brunner 40% to 33% after holding a two-point advantage in September. Just seven percent (7%) would choose another candidate, but 20% are undecided at this point.

Portman continues to run nearly even with Fisher 38% to 36%. In their match-up, 18% of Ohio voters are undecided, while another eight percent (8%) prefer another candidate. The two were virtually tied in September as well, with Portman just ahead 41% to 40%.

From the Dayton Daily News via the same emailed press release:

Portman opens statewide headquarters for U.S. Senate campaign

By William Hershey | Dayton Daily News

With a promise to focus “like a laser” on jobs and the economy, Republican Rob Portman on Thursday, Jan. 7, opened his statewide U.S. Senate campaign headquarters in Columbus.

An estimated 200 Portman backers packed the suite of offices about four miles from downtown Columbus, despite an escalating snow storm outside.

The weather was reminiscent of the launch of Portman’s campaign nearly a year ago on Jan. 14 at the historic Golden Lamb in Lebanon.

Portman, a former U.S. House member from suburban Cincinnati and former trade representative and budget director under President George W. Bush, is the state Republican party’s endorsed candidate but faces a primary challenge from Cleveland-area car dealer Tom Ganley.

State Republican Chairman Kevin DeWine of Fairborn told the crowd that Portman was part of the “best slate of candidates that Republicans” have had in Ohio in more than a generation.

“I agree with what Chairman DeWine said,” said Portman. “This is going to be a good year.”

Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher and Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner are seeking the Democratic nomination.

The race is for the seat being vacated by Republican U.S. Sen. George Voinovich who is retiring.

It is important that Ohio stand up to the Obama socialism machine being fueled by the Harry Reid/Nancy Pelosi US Congress. Liberals are in control and socialism is the order of the day. But it can be reversed.

Ohio has a socialist Senator in Sharrod Brown. He is a Harry Reid/Barry Obama stooge who read Richard Creamer’s 1997 book which outlined the current health care legislation. He, like Reid/Pelsoi/Obama and the rest of the Democrat Pary, has read and subscribed to the Alinsky model of political radicalism. Ohio needs a check on the Sharrod Brown’s residing in the Senate chamber and Portman is that guy.

Elsewhere in Ohio politics, Ohio’s moronic governor is up for re-election as well. He is facing substantial opposition from former US Congressman John Kasich.

From Rasmussen Reports [12/9/09]:

Unemployment in Ohio has jumped to 10.5%, the state is wrestling with an $851 million budget shortfall, and Governor Ted Strickland has proposed delaying a tax cut approved in 2005. Add it all together, and it’s a tough environment for the incumbent Democratic governor who now trails his expected general election opponent by nine percentage points in an early look at the 2010 race.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in Ohio shows Republican John Kasich getting 48% of the vote while Strickland picks up just 39%. Three percent (3%) say they’d prefer a third-party candidate, and 11% are not sure who they would vote for. In September, the two men were essentially even.

Uncle Ted has completely mismanaged Ohio’s budget. We’ve got library closures and reduced services in the libraries that are still open. We’ve seen the closure of 4 of Ohio’s state run mental hospitals leaving thousands of mentally ill Ohioans without services. And a plan out of Uncle Ted to reduce classroom sizes in Ohio which has led to teacher shortages and mobile education modules being used as full-time class rooms.

Oh, and as for that tax cut that Rasmussen says Uncle Ted is considering delaying…

Well the cut has already been factored in to current Ohio income tax withholding tables. Delaying it would mean that Ohio’s workers will not have had enough deducted from their pay to cover their tax liabilities translating to every single Ohio worker needing to write the state a check come April 15th. That is if Uncle Ted approves the delay. Well he did.

Ohio is bleeding jobs because it is not an environment conducive to conducting business. Ohio has traditionally been a heavy industrial and agricultural state. Our heavy industry is just about gone. Gone are the steel plants in Youngstown and Cleveland. Gone are the auto plants in Dayton, Cleveland, Youngstown, and Cincinnati. I’m sorry, but the farmers cannot sustain our state’s economy.

Ohio is also bleeding population. Many seniors are fleeing the high taxes of Ohio for the tax safe havens of Florida, Texas, and Tennessee. Many of our workers are chasing jobs that are going to other states as well. For instance, NCR used Obama stimulus money to leave Dayton for South Carolina. In case you didn’t know it already, NCR invented the cash register in Dayton where NCR was founded. Proctor and Gamble is considering leaving Cincinnati. GM and Chrysler have closed plants all across Ohio and many large and small contractors who supplied these plants followed suit and closed as well.

Ohio is not the only state in trouble and this is translating into a major problem for Democrats. They are the Party in power and this economy belongs to them. Our elected officials continue to spend money that our great grandchildren can’t supply. And make no mistake about it, this debt being run up is no longer our debt. It is the debt of generations yet to be born. Today’s politicians are spending their money not ours.

Republicans stand to gain big at the end of this year and I’m hoping that they can do a better job than the current crop of socialists Democrats. But they should be on notice…

IF YOU GAIN OUR VOTE YOU MUST FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THAT FOR WHICH YOU ARE BEING ELECTED. CUT THIS GOVERNMENT. CUT IT DEEP. REDUCE SPENDING AND THE SIZE OF GOVERNMENT OR 2012 WILL TRULY USHER IN THE END OF THE 2-PARTY SYSTEM. YOU’LL BE OUT AS WELL.

The Science Is Settled Huh? How About THESE Headlines!

Before I begin, I must apologize for such a protracted absence. Just before Christmas, I contracted a severe cold that began as sinusitis then developed into an upper respiratory infection then into – you guessed it – the flu. Then to make matters worse, my trusty Compaq that I’ve had for 5 years, finally displayed its last character. Today, its replacement is making its debut.

Now that the personal business has been explained, on with the show…

I love the fanatical AGW wing of the Church of Global Warming Climate Change of Modern Day Idiots (MDI)* and their non-scientific declarations that the “science is settled”. “The Earth,” they claim, “is warming at an alarming rate and MAN is responsible.” They’ve made grandiose predictions that “if we don’t act now,” by enacting meaningless legislation which does nothing to curb man’s greenhouse gas emissions but would redistribute the world’s wealth instead, we will end up historical toast. But is there even a problem? Take a look at the following headlines before you automatically answer with the MDI* talking points.[1]

To declare any science “settled” is not only pompous and arrogant, it is unscientific. It has always been my understanding that science is never “settled”. I was taught, in what I now understand was (and still is) a very progressive public school system in NE Ohio, science is the ever evolving pursuit of the the truth. So how does that jive with the “science is settled” crowd?

The fact is the science isn’t settled. The political goal has been established. Redistribute the wealth of the world. Global socialism is the true goal not curbing global warming climate change. Doubt me? Take a look at every single piece of climate legislation being proposed by every single government in the world and you will see that the true goal is a one world government and the redistribution of the world’s wealth from the developed countries to the non-developed countries.

True believers of the MDI* line will respond with, “you can’t cite specific local weather anomalies as proof that global warming doesn’t exist” but the claim is disingenuous. High Priest Al Gore and his ilk made bold predictions in the wake of hurricane Katrina that more hurricanes could be expected in the coming years due to man made global warming. That turned out to be a bunch of bilge water.

The fact is, since hurricane Katrina, hurricane activity has decreased. The fact is, the earth’s average surface temperatures have not increased since 1997. The fact is, average global surface temperatures have actually decreased over the past 2 years. The fact is, the current examples of dramatically cold weather patterns are not isolated and local examples, they are on a global scale. For the love of Pete, elderly in the UK are burning books to keep warm! It’s only going to get worse if these pinheads raise the price of energy to unaffordable levels. But they don’t care. Because they are saving the planet.

Beyond an all-out nuclear conflict, I seriously doubt that there is anything that man can do to achieve the kinds of damage that the proselytizers of the MDI* claim. To make grandiose claims that man has the power to destroy the earth just by living the best lives we can by utilizing the best technology of the day is not only arrogant, it is irresponsible. Especially when those claims can, have, and will continue to lead to deaths that can and should be avoided by keeping the costs of living low. But the believers of the MDI* are not interested in your life. They are only interested in the money that they can raise by scaring you into believing their lies and the power that they can achieve over you through those lies.

Democrat Social Policy – We’ve Seen It All Before

Let me ask a simple question to those who support the Emperor and his Utopian dreams of Universal Health Care. Does this look familiar?

This right is ensured by free, qualified medical care provided by state health institutions; by extension of the network of therapeutic and health-building institutions; by the development and improvement of safety and hygiene in industry; by carrying out broad prophylactic measures; by measures to improve the environment; by special care for the health of the rising generation, including prohibition of child labour, excluding the work done by children as part of the school curriculum; and by developing research to prevent and reduce the incidence of disease and ensure citizens a long and active life.

In the interest of full disclosure this is an excerpt from the Constitution of the former Soviet Union. To be exact this comes from Chapter 7: The Basic Rights, Freedoms, and Duties of Citizens of the USSR. Specifically, this quote is from Article 42.

So before ANYONE begins to claim that the Democrat Party is not the Socialist Party of the United States and their nefarious goal is to “fundamentally transform Amerika” into something that we once defeated, perhaps you ought to read the Soviet Constitution and see for yourself how the Democrats’ goals fit into Soviet society.

Doubling Down on Death Care

March 4, 2010

Yesterday the Emperor paraded out a bunch of people in white lab coats – claimed them to be doctors, physicians’ assistants, and nurses – to publicly “instruct” Congress that the time for debate is over. Like a strict father to his petulant children he said (in a nutshell), “the time of tomfoolery is over so [...]

Can Liberal News Media Sustain Itself Without Commercial Advertising?

February 28, 2010

It is well known that in the war that is cable news, Fox is destroying CNN and literally killing MSNoBodyCares. Evidence of this became overwhelmingly evident as I experienced first hand recently.
In my home the ONLY time MSNoBodyCares is EVER displayed on my television is during the Olympics. Earlier this evening, I was at my [...]

Obama’s Infatuation With Failure

February 11, 2010

It has occurred to me that the Emperor has an unhealthy infatuation with failure. Why do I say that you ask? He seems to favor European Socialism and every single item on his agenda follows the European model which we all can see is a complete and utter failure. Case in point: Greece.
Instead of running [...]

Obama, Emanuel, Shaw, and Fabian Socialism in America [UPDATED]

January 24, 2010

On Friday, the Glenn Beck program on Fox News Channel introduced Americans to a term that has not been clearly defined by anyone in my lifetime. The term? Fabian Socialism.
Beck’s introduction to America of the term “Fabian Socialism” came in the form of introducing a segment in his documentary “The Revolutionary Holocaust: …live free or [...]

Economic Recovery Or Economic Ruin? What Is He Up To?

January 22, 2010

Everytime the Emperor opens his mouth these days, he’s spouting the virtues of his economic recovery plan. Problem is, he doesn’t want recovery. He needs economic collapse in order to implement his real agenda.
A few days ago I mentioned a plan for the economy laid out in the 1960’s which is finally coming to fruition [...]

SF Chronicle is Delusional

January 20, 2010

The San Francisco Chronicle asked its readers a rhetorical question to which they have no desire to entertain the real answer. They asked…
If the late Edward Kennedy’s Massachusetts Senate seat isn’t safe for Democrats, is Nancy Pelosi’s speakership of the House safe?
The answer to their own question?
The answer is yes, unless there’s a Republican landslide [...]

Obama, Congress, Health Care, CSPAN, And An Hour

January 8, 2010

During the 2008 Presidential Election cycle, then Senator Obama vowed that if elected and going forward with his health care plan, the public would be invited to the table. He was recorded on film 8 times making a promise to televise the process on CSPAN. His stated goal? So that the American people could see [...]
