On the same day that the American born al Qaeda spokesman Adam Gadahn releases a video calling on American Muslims to attack the United States, he gets himself captured by Pakistani forces.
Several news agencies are reporting that Pakistani forces captured one of America’s Ten Most Wanted in Karachi. Gadahn was captured along with 2 other high ranking al Qaeda officers and a Pakistani government official by Pakistani Intelligence Agents.
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.
Europe is in such a shambles that Greece is on the verge of total chaos and the Euro is in danger of complete collapse but yet the President of the United States prefers to follow a EuroSocialist model because he sees it as a success. Every single item on the Obama agenda is EXACTLY what is leading to the collapse of the economy in Greece and the rest of the EU. But he trudges on even considering expanding executive power by issuing Executive Orders as the only way to implement his EuroSocialist modeled agenda.
The European single currency is facing an ‘inevitable break-up’ a leading French bank claimed yesterday.
Strategists at Paris-based Société Générale said that any bailout of the stricken Greek economy would only provide ’sticking plasters’ to cover the deep- seated flaws in the eurozone bloc.
The stark warning came as the euro slipped further on the currency markets and dire growth figures raised the prospect of a ‘double-dip’ recession in the embattled zone.
Claims that the euro could be headed for total collapse are particularly striking when they come from one of the oldest and largest banks in France – a core founder-member.
In a note to investors, SocGen strategist Albert Edwards said: ‘My own view is that there is little “help” that can be offered by the other eurozone nations other than temporary, confidence-giving “sticking plasters” before the ultimate denouement: the break-up of the eurozone.’
He added: ‘Any “help” given to Greece merely delays the inevitable break-up of the eurozone.’
According to the article, the Euro has lost 10% of its value since November. The Dollar and Pound are each gaining on the dominant European currency.
The President will now be issuing executive orders to slip in provisions of ObamaCare and Cap and Tax. Economy destroying measures by executive decree. He needs to be shut down NOW!
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 ProgressivesLiberalsProgressives 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.
Today class, we are going to examine the Democrat Tribe. They are a less developed community of humans as they become cannibalistic when threatened. Let me explain…
Political failure leads to finger-pointing which then morphs into a sort of twisted political brand of cannibalism. This is especially true for Democrats. It manifested itself rather conspicuously during the Clintonian Infestation and, to this point at a lesser degree, in the Obama Infestation. We haven’t yet seen a massive “redistribution” of the proverbial deck chairs – but it’s coming.
More than at the White House, Democrats in Congress are more apt to throw each other under that political bus than anywhere else. If a Representative or Senator steps out of the pre-carved political groove you can pretty much assume that their current term will also be their last if they have not already entrenched themselves in their seat. We see this already as incumbent Democrats are beginning to face primary challenges in their midterm races. More often than not, moderates are being challenged by the far-left.
What brings about this observation today is a story that appears in The Hill’s online version – Congressional Democrats point finger of blame at Rahm Emanuel. The Hill’s Alexander Bolton points a spotlight on the frustration of Congressional Democrats who are beginning to smell blood in the water. It seems that before the cannibals begin to swarm and close in on someone, there has to be a transgression committed by the individual that makes them already vulnerable, and that is what is happening to Rhambo.
Rham already took a political hit for his choice of words that drew the firestorm begun by former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. This transgression combined with his intense personal involvement with the Infestation’s failed effort to get national Death Care passed has driven him underground. While he is in political purgatory, those looking to save their own hides are taking aim at Emanuel and will eventually put enough pressure on the Emperor to make a change. If they can shift the focus from their failure and project[1] it upon Emanuel, thereby lessening the blow to themselves in their re-election efforts, then perhaps they may survive the retribution from the voters for their shameful practice of ignoring their constituents.
Progressives do not believe that Emanuel did enough to swoon impressionable Republicans to the cause. Moderates think the Infestation and Congressional leadership tried to do too much at one time, thus creating a large opposition where Emanuel was the point man for the Infestation.
In a sense, Emanuel used a “scorched earth” policy on Death Care which left the Democrats and the Emperor without a major victory in the first year of this Congress. It is a well known in national politics that the only productive year of a Congress is the first year. Every House member and 1/3rd of the Senate spend year 2 of the Congress running for re-election so nothing generally gets done. Certainly nothing that would risk re-election prospects. No productive first year means an impotent Congress.
With the impending anti-incumbent political tidal wave set to crash into the Democrat majority in November, entrenched Democrats are no longer in a position of safety. The uber-left see 2009 as the wasted opportunity to achieve a century of planning. They came out of their political holes to put forth the most aggressive push toward socializing the United States since FDR and have failed again. Much worse, they’ve exposed themselves for the world to see.
We’ve already begun to see the re-branding of themselves. First they were “progressives” until that became a dirty word in America. They then switched to “liberal” until they destroyed that image. They then wanted to re-claim “progressive” believing it to be a more appealing description of what they are. Now that Americans again know what they wish to “progress” toward, they are re-branding themselves as “POPULIST” because they believe it to be more appealing than “progressive” or “liberal”. As the old saying goes, “You can put lipstick on a pig, but it is still a pig.”
In the dust-up to the 2010 midterms we will begin to see changes made. Loyalties will be tested and some abandoned. We’ve seen how Democrats treat their own once they are drummed out of the corps. Ask William Jefferson how it was to be abandoned by his Speaker and his Party. Or John Edwards for that matter. And if you need any further evidence of what I have written ask Senator Joe Lieberman. First his Party runs someone else for his seat forcing him to defend it as an Independent. Then, because he sided with the Republican candidate for President (albeit a PROGRESSIVE Republican), they threatened to strip him of his Committee Chair. THEN, because he opposed the Emperor’s Death Care bill, his wife’s job was threatened. Those power hungry Democrats want to feed. They are eager to feed and nothing will stop them from feeding…even if it’s on their own kind.
Like sharks, Congressional Democrats are beginning to hunt for a scapegoat. Emanuel has been identified as the most vulnerable high profile member of the Infestation. He is someone who does not face re-election this year and is a fitting scapegoat to project their insecurities upon. Let the feeding frenzy begin.
The Imperial mouthpieces sent out among the jackals of the Sunday talk shows, seem to have neglected to convene a little meeting prior to their appearances in order to coordinate the official lie. Normally they would probably not worry about such a meeting because the differing subject matter they would normally be discussing during their various appearances would be dealing with seemingly unrelated topics. However the Emperor has been sending forth his non-thinking minions to the Infestation’s official propaganda corps to bend the truth (see also: spin) about the same thing – the success of the American Robbery and Redistribution Act of 2009 (aka: The Porkulus).
The Emperor and his minions can’t seem to get together and decide how many jobs the Redistribution Act has “created or saved”. The Emperor’s moronic mouthpieces have brought forth three different numbers on three different talk shows on the same day; followed just three days later by the Emperor himself lying to a joint session of Congress spewing forth a completely different number. In my opinion, if they truly think the American people are buying their lies they are all fugitives from the booby hatch.
No one is being fooled. With that in mind, one must ask the question “why is it they continue with the charade?”
The answer is simple.
In the 1962 version of ‘The Manchurian Candidate’ Senator Iselin (James Gregory), after barking off various numbers of “card-carrying communists in the defense department” before the press, is attempting to get his wife (Angela Lansbury) to give him one simple number that he can remember so that he doesn’t look like a fool. A small argument ensues and Mrs. Iselin mentions that people aren’t asking “IF” there are any communists in the defense department, they are asking “HOW MANY” communists are in the defense department. In this example we see a perfect text-book case of smoke and mirrors played out before us in a fictional story. When you have no evidence of your position, arrange the argument so that certain aspects of your unproven position are assumed to be factual. In this way you avoid the conflict of proving your case.
Obama and his Infestation cannot prove a single job was either “saved or created”. So they get the public to focus on a number instead of arguing about whether or not the program was even successful at all.
The problem with Obama is that the public is developing a picture of his Infestation as a brood of ineptitude. No one seems to know what is going on including the Emperor. The Obama Infestation looks to the casual observer to be a rudderless ship aimlessly drifting as Obama and his crew focus on meaningless legislation that has no hope of achieving any of its goals. Legislation I might add that has no hope of passing on its merits.
As the private sector continues to lose jobs, the federal government is growing at a rate that no steroid can achieve. Steady injections of Obama-ism and its deficit spending is causing that pig to fatten up as the only jobs being “created or saved” are government sector jobs.
The mouthpieces all brag about “saving” teachers’ jobs or police jobs as if every single teacher and cop would have been pink slipped if the Redistribution Act hadn’t passed. Even if we were to assume they would have been, what is going to happen once the Redistribution Act grant money is exhausted? Will we see Redistribution Act II?!? Apparently as the Emperor has proposed another stimulus “jobs bill”.
Government cannot create or save anything. Government is the reason why the private sector is losing jobs. Over-regulation and mandates from the government make doing business in the United States an increasingly expensive operation. The Infestation pinheads cannot fathom the idea that those whom they have been demonizing for years are the very people who create jobs for us underlings. By taxing them into bankruptcy, the government is destroying job opportunities for the very class of people they give the illusion of working for. All we need now is another stimulus “jobs bill” to drive up the national unemployment numbers another 5% like the first one did.
With each new government spending fix, the economy gets worse. If our economy continues to tank, how is it we will ever make a dent in that nearly $13 Trillion national debt? Short answer: We Can’t!
Scenario: You just lost your job, you can’t pay your bills, now what do you do? Do you go to the bank and say, “hey, I need to borrow $1.9 Trillion to pay my bills?”
You’d be laughed out of the office. Why then do we continue to allow our government to spend beyond its means?
This President and his administration are nothing but a bunch of bumbling idiots. The legacy of the Obama Infestation I predict will be worse than the Carter Infestation. Compared to both of them, that total idiot Clinton looks brilliant.
Let’s all make a pact. The entire voting public of this nation must agree, NO MORE POLITICIANS WITH DOCTORATES. They may be book smart, but they are completely clueless in the real world. And that makes them dangerous.
Populism is an extremely volatile quasi-political ideology. It is forever changing with the tide of public opinion. It is both a blessing and a curse within this nation. Allow me to explain…
It is a blessing in that those who are elected largely on populist support tend to pay attention to the ebb and flow of public opinion and formulate policy based on those changes. In this way, the general public is the check on populist politicians. But then there is the curse for those who fail to live up to their populist campaigning. For instance…
In 2008, Barack Obama rode a tide of populism to victory in November to be come the 44th President of the United States. Popular public opinion was against the status quo which translated into an anti-Republican movement in spite of the fact that the 2008 Presidential election was being decided between two Progressive politicians. Let me make this perfectly clear. The 2008 Presidential election pitted 2 candidates who represent the same political ideology (admittedly at two distinct and differing degrees) against each other for popular vote. Because one of them claims Republican membership, he lost in spite of the fact that he gave more detailed information about how he would govern. The other, kept the details of his potential “rule” a closely guarded secret by showering the public with vague messages clouded in populist rhetoric.
Focus tested rhetoric was employed to swing voters in spite of the lack of details about the candidate. Words like “Change” and “Hope” were employed in an effort to rally the populist vote toward the more extreme Progressive. And it worked.
Without defining what would be “changed”, from what to what, Barack Hussein Obama hoodwinked the populist voters. Once in office, his radical Progressive nature came forward, shedding its Democrat facade, clearly defining him for what he truly is. A Socialist almost to the Fabian extreme.
I say that because he employed, as do all well groomed Progressives, Fabian methodology. It is the Fabian way to corrupt from within. To grow like a cancer from within the political organization most likely to elevate them to power. Barack Obama did so from within the Democrat Party. John McCain wasn’t as successful because most Conservative Republicans know him for what he is.
Now that he’s out from behind the proverbial curtain, we can all see for ourselves what kind of monster the populists of this nation elected. There he is folks, warts and all, in the open for all to see. A Socialist tearing the heart out of this wonderful nation.
Obama is from a mixed school of radicalism. He studied Marx, Alinsky, Cloward-Piven, and mentored under Frank Marshall Davis. He understands the violent radicalism of the Weather Underground, the Black Panthers, and the Nation of Islam. And now it is time to put that mixed radical knowledge into practice while he has enough power to achieve the long awaited goals of the Progressive movement.
He understands that he has a limited time to “fundamentally transform America” into the Utopia that only can grow out of the anchovy pizza induced night terror that George Orwell warned us of in his novels ‘Animal Farm’ and ‘1984′. He fully understands that he and his Congressional stooges need to slip through their “reforms” so fast that you do not have the opportunity to understand what is in them. This is to protect the process and accomplish as much as possible before you catch on. Problem – you caught on.
Populism is shifting and the wave that he rode to victory is now an undertow threatening to drown the neophyte President in a sea of his own broken promises. Populist America now sees the radical they’ve elected and even the previously compliant main stream media is beginning to turn on him.
Chris “Thrill Up My Leg” Matthews (MSNBC) is shifting as is Maureen Dowd (NYT) and others. His supporters and underlings are beginning to catch more difficult questioning out of news agencies that were previously sympathetic to his cause. Some think that he’s gone too far to the left while others believe that he hasn’t gone far enough.
The populist uprising against the radical attempt by this President and this Congress to “fundamentally transform America” occurred when the American people were thinking the President meant a transformation in politics but were met with a President and a Congress working toward a radical “transformation” of socio-economics. That’s not what The People voted for.
They couldn’t get Cap and Trade in the time frame they wanted so it was shelved. They couldn’t get Obamacare in the time frame that they wanted and the people asked questions. When the powers that be refused to answer those questions, Democrats lost Virginia, and New Jersey. When they continued to ignore the American people they lost Massachusetts.
The danger here is in the formation of both domestic and foreign policy based on populism. A President needs to form his/her policy before going to the American people and asking for their vote. If the people believe that his/her policy is in the best interest of the Republic, then he (or she) will attain the necessary votes to win. A voter will vote for someone going against the populist grain if they believe that he/she is doing so in the best interest of the nation.
Barack Obama’s problem is that he ran as a populist and is “ruling” as a radical Progressive. Had he ran as a radical Progressive, he would not have won. The people do not like being played for suckers and that is the feeling the people have about Barack Obama. Why else would Democrat voters vote for Republicans?
Coming Soon – How Populism Subverted State’s Rights
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.
After this past week’s stunning victory of Republican Scott Brown in Massachusetts, it seems that Democrat leaders on the Hill are showing signs that they are incapable of learning what elections actually mean.
A Fabrizio, McLaughlin & Associates poll showed that 78% of voters supporting Scott Brown said their vote was intended to stop the Death Care bill. Let us not lose sight of the fact that only 12% of registered voters in Massachusetts are Republican. Let us not forget also that Independents broke 3:1 for Brown. But yet Pelosi and Reid desire to push through Obamacare anyway.
This begs the question… “Is the leadership of Congressional Democrats deaf? Or are they just plain stupid?”
Albert Einstein famously said, “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results”. Using Einstein’s logic, Reid and Pelosi are insane.
They spent nearly a year trying to ram through this Death Care proposal but the People of the United States revolted. First they had to have it by August 1st. Then it was pushed back to October 31st, then Thanksgiving, then Christmas. Both houses have past their own versions of what they wanted Death Care to look like. But they are far from similar.
The next push? Get it reconciled by the State of the Union. Problem, Massachusetts that was supposed to be a lock for Democrat Martha Coakley – well the voters had other ideas.
Instead of letting it die, Reid and Pelosi are fantasizing about playing Frankenstein with the now deceased bill. They wish to bring it back from the dead and parade the legislative monster in front of the American People as if to say –
“It doesn’t matter what you want. We are in charge and what you want does not matter. We rule this nation so just sit back and watch American Idol and we’ll tell you what you will do.”
Their collective manner is insulting to the American voter and it is this attitude which has led to first the angry townhalls, the Tea Party protests, and finally to the election of Scott Brown in a state where a Republican hasn’t held national office since 1973. The next “teaching moment” for liberals on Capital Hill will be on November 4th. Their affinity for ignoring the American People will likely put more seats in play than previously thought.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid reportedly are considering a new list of changes to the Senate health care reform bill that could be passed separately as a way to advance the suddenly stalled overhaul of the health care system.
If such changes are passed in a separate piece of legislation, it could make the current Senate health care bill acceptable to enough liberal House members to pass it, allowing Democrats to achieve their goal of sweeping health care reform, Politico reported.
With the number of people rejecting Death Care in the “bluest of blue states”, it seems to me that Democrat leaders must either be deaf or just plain stupid. Which? I care not to speculate about. But I will say that Einstein’s comments on insanity seem to be in play as well.
Scott Brown defeated Martha Coakley by a margin of 5 percentage points in a state where Republicans are out-numbered 3:1 by Democrats. This should have the Emperor having nightmares beginning tonight.
Obama’s agenda is dead. That is unless he and his cohorts Pelosi and Reid begin utilizing political end-runs around the democratic process. His Infestation announced last week that their agenda for 2010 was Immigration Reform. I think that it is pretty safe to say that agenda is now off the table. Cap and Tax failed to come to a vote on the floor of the Senate. That too is dead on the table. But Death Care… That is where the Emperor, Pelosi, and Reid could stick it to the American people and use political shenannigans to pass the progressive movement’s biggest incursion into the private lives of normal every-day American citizens’ lives.
Frank Luntz conducted a focus group of Massachusetts voters that did not include a single registered Republican. Most of the group in fact voted for Coakley. But as results were streaming in indicating that Brown was going to prevail, the overwhelming majority of those in the focus group advocated halting everything in the Senate until Brown is seated. A message echoed by Virginia Democrat Senator Jim Webb.
In many ways the campaign in Massachusetts became a referendum not only on health care reform but also on the openness and integrity of our government process. It is vital that we restore the respect of the American people in our system of government and in our leaders. To that end, I believe it would only be fair and prudent that we suspend further votes on health care legislation until Senator-elect Brown is seated. - Senator Jim Webb (D VA) in a statement
That focus group also pointed out a couple of keys as to why Massachusetts voters failed to deliver for Coakley. The Death Care bill was the most prominent. They did not like Congress and the Emperor taking action on this bill when it is clearly not the will of the people. Secondly, those in the focus group who voted for Brown also cited the out of control spending and growth of government.
Now that Senator Elect Scott Brown has been elected and he is duly qualified to serve as United States Senator, it is imperative that Paul Kirk be prohibited from casting any additional votes in the Senate. As of right now, he is no longer a Senator. And even if they do try to rush through a vote on some sort of compromise, I doubt Senator Lieberman would vote for cloture so – that would be a useless effort.
Other political games being talked about at the White House is budget reconciliation OR getting the House to pass the Senate bill as is. Somehow I doubt the House is willing to play ball on that one.
But several House members said Tuesday night that they had no interest in pursuing the most likely scenario for moving ahead with a bill — approving the already-passed Senate version of health reform in the House – and some said President Barack Obama should step back and start over.
Remember that the House version only passed with 220 votes. Forcing the Senate bill at this point would likely fall short of the required 218 for passage.
In other words, the Emperor’s agenda is now officially dead. No Death Care bill. No Cap and Tax. No Immigration bill. It is now the season of bipartisanship or nothing for Obama, Pelosi, and Reid. Reid is done come November 4th and Pelosi will likely lose control of the House. Obama is going to be awful lonely unless he begins to learn how to get along with the minority. Because today’s minority will likely be next year’s majority and I don’t see Obama learning to govern from the center as Clinton did after the 1994 midterms.
He’ll need to get used to the words – Lame and Duck.

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 [...]
Europe is in such a shambles that Greece is on the verge of total chaos and the Euro is in danger of complete collapse but yet the President of the United States prefers to follow a EuroSocialist model because he sees it as a success. Every single item on the Obama agenda is EXACTLY what [...]
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 [...]
Today class, we are going to examine the Democrat Tribe. They are a less developed community of humans as they become cannibalistic when threatened. Let me explain…
Political failure leads to finger-pointing which then morphs into a sort of twisted political brand of cannibalism. This is especially true for Democrats. It manifested itself [...]
The Imperial mouthpieces sent out among the jackals of the Sunday talk shows, seem to have neglected to convene a little meeting prior to their appearances in order to coordinate the official lie. Normally they would probably not worry about such a meeting because the differing subject matter they would normally be discussing during their [...]
Populism is an extremely volatile quasi-political ideology. It is forever changing with the tide of public opinion. It is both a blessing and a curse within this nation. Allow me to explain…
It is a blessing in that those who are elected largely on populist support tend to pay attention to the ebb and flow of [...]
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 [...]
After this past week’s stunning victory of Republican Scott Brown in Massachusetts, it seems that Democrat leaders on the Hill are showing signs that they are incapable of learning what elections actually mean.
A Fabrizio, McLaughlin & Associates poll showed that 78% of voters supporting Scott Brown said their vote was intended to stop the Death [...]
Scott Brown defeated Martha Coakley by a margin of 5 percentage points in a state where Republicans are out-numbered 3:1 by Democrats. This should have the Emperor having nightmares beginning tonight.
Obama’s agenda is dead. That is unless he and his cohorts Pelosi and Reid begin utilizing political end-runs around the democratic process. His Infestation [...]

The problem with Obama is that the public is developing a picture of his Infestation as a brood of ineptitude. No one seems to know what is going on including the Emperor. The Obama Infestation looks to the casual observer to be a rudderless ship aimlessly drifting as Obama and his crew focus on meaningless legislation that has no hope of achieving any of its goals. Legislation I might add that has no hope of passing on its merits. 
He understands that he has a limited time to “fundamentally transform America” into the Utopia that only can grow out of the anchovy pizza induced night terror that George Orwell warned us of in his novels ‘Animal Farm’ and ‘1984′. He fully understands that he and his Congressional stooges need to slip through their “reforms” so fast that you do not have the opportunity to understand what is in them. This is to protect the process and accomplish as much as possible before you catch on. Problem – you caught on.
