OBAMACARE and Medicare..why will one be better than the other?

I had my first medicare checkup. Routine stuff.

One of the things that my doctor has been nagging me about was getting a Colonoscopy. When I inquired about the cost, I was told that as a self payer (a year ago) that the price was $3500.

I declined.

Then after my Medicare checkup She said I should still have a colonoskpy and that Medicare paid for it. But, to be sure I should stop at the finance office and check. The nice young lady was loquacious informational.

Self Pay Colonscopy $3500
Health Insurance Pays for a Colonoscopy $1400
Medicare Pays for a Colonoscopy $200

I asked, how is that possible? How can a doctor afford to do that for that kind of money? She said cheerfully, “OH, they can’t. They write the rest off and it adds to the overhead”.

I hate the fact this exists. I hate the fact that this kind of thing will force us into OBAMACARE.

I hate that this is going to bankrupt America.

How did this get so screwed up?

Now that OBAMACARE will Pass and be signed into law... meet your doctor

According to a recent survey up to half of all doctors will quit practicing medicine if the Health Care Bill passes. That will mean a shortage of doctors for a while. But, never fear, in the health care bill was an education bill. It will pay for fast tracking Med students, Physician Assistants and Nurses. And immigration, More Dr Jose, Dr Chen, Dr. Patel and Dr. Sahid. It will be great getting that multicultural flavor more into medicine.

The really neat deal is that with this emphasis on fast tracking there will be opportunity, even equal opportunity, for the Jethroes of the world to accomplish their life's goals. If you were a fan of the Beverly Hillbillies you will know that Jethro's prime ambition was to become either a brain surgeon or a fry cook. Well, the training in the fast track will be about the same. AND, let's not forget the real "Doc" in the Bodine family, Granny, who practiced all kinds of alternative medicine.

I'm guessing that both Jethro and Granny wouldn't charge near as much as those fancy schmancy hospitals and drug companies of today. Why a couple spare pigs in trade might just do it.

We could roam the streets of Chicago, the Rural Reaches filled with good O'l Boys in a pickup truck and troll the border of Mexico to find all the candidates to replace those greedy Doctors we have now.

So, Let me present, YOUR NEW MEDICAL TEAM.....

Doctor Jethro and Granny will see you now just as soon as the doc can get away from the fry grill at his other job.

Welcome to HELL.

The face only a Child Could Love and a Country can Despise

A note from a potential church member - Ouch

So you want me in your church?

Here’s how to get me.

Parking: I need lots of space for my big SUV and it better be close to the door. I don’t want to do much walking. So if it isn’t, how about a shuttle?

Nice building: This is important. I am not interested in some strip mall church that looks like its struggling or an old traditional church unless you’ve done millions in ‘renos’ I am an upwardly model, semi-professional and I want my surroundings to reflect my importance.

Proper HVAC: this isn’t important its critical. I want to be cool when its warm and warm when its cool. 68 degrees Farenheit to 72 degrees farenheit year round. Is that too much to ask?

Comfy Chairs: And when I say chairs I mean CHAIRS! Preferably theatre style, with wide arm rests. Give me some space for my girth and safe distance from the other arriving consumers.

Be Punctual: I’ve already spent too much time getting me and the family ready and there for the meeting. Begin it on time. Have something cool playing on the big screens to entertain us if we arrive a little early. You’ve got an hour. Make good use of it. I want to be in and out in no more than 75 minutes. Maybe a few more if you are serving decent coffee. Decent coffee that is FREE of course.

Music: Three songs up front. One fast to get us going; One mid-tempo to help us be reflective; End with a fast one that tells us how much Jesus, God, the Spirit loves us. Just please no ‘Jesus is my boyfriend’ songs.

Announcements: Get them over after the music. Present them on your big screen so they can be done quickly. This isn’t the time to stick your “B” team on the platform to give them some face time. And unless Larry David is writing for you, avoid humor. Have the final cut folk edit your marketing stuff down to 15 second bites. If it works for Sony, it will work for you.

Offering: Now it’s up to you where you put it. If the preacher is great after the sermon might work better. If not, go for the money after the announcements. Maybe show some shots of starving, third-world kids in the last announcement. Heart string tugs work for Compassion and World Vision, why not your church? God loves a cheerful giver and the Malachi 3 verses and the 100-fold blessing are important reminders. A good story of how tithing worked from someone would be great. No more than 90 seconds though.

Sermon: 20 MINUTES! Did I make myself clear? 20 MINUTES! 20 … 20! We have the attention spans of gnats. Keep that in mind. Make it practical. If I wanted systematic theology I would have gone to seminary. Use humor. Steal from the best if necessary. I want to leave feeling built up and it’s a bonus if I can use your jokes and stories that you told at work tomorrow.

Final song: Let the band rip on the last song. Feel good, happy, clappy works here IF you want us wanting to come back for more next week.

Benediction: Let the band lay back and under as you bless us. Speak multiplied blessings over us and then do a ‘fast pitch’ for whatever product you need to sell and I did say ‘fast pitch’! And then the band amps back up. This is the place for a guitar or sax solos as we head out the doors to the shuttle bus or the bookstore or the free coffee. It’s ok to charge us something extra for latte’s. Like I said, I am a consumer… oh, and a ‘sort of a Christian’. If you build this I will come … or so you’ve been told.

Is it about time for Oliver Stone to Strike and create a Stock Market Crash?

Funny Idea?

OK read this article:

When Oliver Stone came out with Wall Street (greed is good) in 1987 within a few months the market collapsed.

Now the next one is coming out in September. Many believe that will be the harbinger of the next collapse:
America is unprepared for the coming disaster

Stone's message is clear and powerful: You're ignoring the coming collapse of capitalism ... of our society ... collapse of America. We are ignoring the end of our experiment in democracy. We are unprepared ... "our way of life is going to change." Wake up.

Unfortunately, Stone's voice will likely be as ineffective in 2010 as in 1987. Few listen. Since the first film we've had bigger bubbles, bigger busts. Remember the Asian-Russian crises of 1997-98? Dot-coms in 2000? Subprime meltdown of 2007-08?

"Oliver Stone's 1987 Wall Street succeeded brilliantly in capturing a culture," says Lewis, "and failed miserably as a call for change. To the director's dismay, thousands of financial hotshots dreamed of becoming Gordon Gekko." It was like a recruiting poster for financial terrorists.

Why? Wall Street insiders and Main Street day traders are by nature optimists and opportunists. It's in their DNA. The love crises and volatility. Like the bomb-squad experts in "Hurt Locker," they race into the kill zone. This is a game to traders. They love the hunt, the thrill, the adrenaline rush ... they have to minimize the risks, deny the danger and ignore the consequences as they rush in to capture the moment.

Seriously: Lewis says "Michael Douglas often expresses his astonishment at the many Wall Street males who have sought him out in public places just to say, 'Man, I want to tell you, you are the single biggest reason I got into the business. I watched Wall Street, and I wanted to be Gordon Gekko.' The film's equally perplexed screenwriter, Stanley Weiser, has made the same point, in a different way. 'We wanted to capture the hyper-materialism of the culture,' he said. 'That was always the intent of the movie. Not to make Gordon Gekko a hero.'" Remember, greed never left ... greed never will leave.
Collapse! Chicken Little? Crying Wolf? Cassandra?

Wait a minute: Is this a conspiracy? That word, "collapse," keeps popping up in news and literature: Jared Diamond, anthropologist, in his best-selling "Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed" ... Hedge fund manager Barton Biggs in "Wealth, War and Wisdom" warns of the "possibility of a breakdown of the civilized infrastructure" ... Financial historian Niall Ferguson, author of "Colossus: The Rise and Fall of The American Empire," writing in "Collapse & Complexity: Empires on the Edge of Chaos," warns we'll fail to see a coming collapse. ... Jack Bogle saw the problem years ago in "The Battle for the Soul of Capitalism" ... And Hong Kong economist Marc Faber used the dreaded "c-word" in his Doom, Boom & Gloom Report: "The future will be a total disaster, with a collapse of our capitalistic system ... inevitable."

But is Stone credible? Not just to predict another collapse, but the timing? Or is he just another entertainer, like "Mad Money's" Jim Cramer? Was it just coincidence that his film was released right after the October 1987 crash? Doesn't matter: Lewis says Wall Street saw Stone as a guru. He denies it: "We didn't know what was coming and we didn't know this was a special period ... People accused me of being a genius who predicted the stock-market crash of 1987. I didn't predict the stock-market crash. I had no idea."

But you have to wonder: Are Wall Street's insiders right? Is Stone a guru, seer, great cosmic market timer? Is there a real link between the '87 crash and 2010? Is he linked in to all the many references to the word "collapse" by leading minds?

Swiss psychologist Carl Jung would tell us events like this are not random "coincidences," but a "synchronicity" of the "collective unconsciousness" surfacing in the voices of many tuned-in beings, warning us our world is in grave danger ... that yes, a collapse is dead ahead ... but that Wall Street, like bomb experts in "Hurt Locker," will go deep into denial, naturally blind to the larger historical warning while focusing narrowly on trading opportunities in their kill-zone.


I don't know about all this, but I do know this, there is a major eventual collapse that MUST come. There is NOTHING holding this market up. NOTHING at ALL.

From a commenter:
Maybe he has been reading the government reports to Congress the last few years. What is a "collapse?"

It is the loss of the standard of living for one thing. It is the loss of domestic tranquility (riots, looting, civil unrest, attacks on certain people in our society, etc. Hate is directed toward whoever has become the most recent target whether they are a scapegoat or actually deserve the blame.

So, what have our government reports to Congress been saying for six years?

quote
the federal government’s current fiscal policy is unsustainable. Continuing on this imprudent and unsustainable path will gradually erode, if not suddenly damage, our economy, our standard of living, and ultimately our domestic tranquility and national security.

http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d07362sp.pdf

Note two things. One, you can remove "gradual" as that was in the warning before this crisis hit and two, they include the loss of our national security. Again, this is from our own government, the biggest doom and gloom advocate out there. When you look at their projections you see why they say this can't continue and will cause us to lose our standard of living and what is that?

Power, water, sewer, health care, police, fire, good roads, rail and airports, bridges, buying power, high employment, and the ability of anyone to start their own business and succeed or fail on their own and to own their home in a stable home price environment, quality education, economic growth that keeps population growth employed at wages that meet the level required for a high standard of living.

Some of those things have obviously been in decline for decades but more are being added each year to the list of things at high risk of being lost or put in serious decline.

Not one policy to change those trends has been made. Instead, we are doing things that make things worse each month. We can't grow or tax out of this and spending cuts would cause a depression now. So, what is left? Collapse!

quote
"There is no means of avoiding the final collapse of a boom brought about by credit expansion. The alternative is only whether the crisis should come sooner as a result of a voluntary abandonment of further credit expansion, or later as a final and total catastrophe of the currency system involved.”

Von Mises

If you don't like what you are reading from Ferrell or on the media, then read the government reports.


It's over, it's just that the fat lady hasn't sung yet.

Just wondering

I was wondering, if republicans get control of the house and senate this fall, could they Deem and Pass articles of impeachment for Obama and the conviction of Nancy Pelosi for high crimes and Misdemeanors?

When a Person Re-Enters Too Early, they Burn Out

Tiger Woods is signed up to play in the April 5 Masters Tourney. Thanksgiving 2009 is when the lid came off in his life. He has confessed. He has been to rehab. He has done all the stuff he could do and money could buy. The problem is, the sore is still pretty raw. Easy to pick the scab. The one thing money and intentions can't buy is the healing of time.

Today one of his hooker girlfriends released transcripts of sex text messages Tiger sent. I looked at them briefly. Sorry you'll have to dig them up from the garbage yourself. I read a few and stopped. He's a sick puppy.

Yet he has intentions of returning to Golf April 5. I know the Tour is hurting. I saw it on Saturday Night Live so it must be true. That's not Tiger's problem. Life will never be the same.

Think how much better it would be if:
  • --He had announced that he was going to retreat from all spotlight for at least a year to restore his broken life and marriage.
  • --He had confessed every and all to his wife with the understanding that things will come out.
  • --He had refused all pressures to come back.

He needed to step back, and step down and spend needed time doing the needful things.

Now it all blows up again. Early re-entry results in burn out. Imagine if he had waited a year, to Spring of 2011. Marriage and family whole. Confessed sin. Light of Day. Rested. Complete.

And then the hooker releases the text messages (which his wife should have already known about).

Then what? Not this. Not like now.

It was too early. He needed to stay out for a while.

This is like a tragic Shakespeare play. No good ending.

More of this Please

There are probes in NY state of the practice of spiking the last year or two salary for teachers and government workers to increase the state funded pensions.

Illinois is broke, busted, out of money in part due to this practice.

I'm glad to see this come to light.

Now what about the other corruption?

Kathryn Mary Lee, age 75 - Changes Worlds

Sometimes regret hits quickly. I was in South Dakota a couple weeks ago. During that time I drove right by the House Kathryn Lee, my aunt, wife of the late Tom Lee (my Mom's brother). I was tired. I didn't stop. Thought about it. I thought I needed a nap more. So, a visit that would have been good for me was passed up.

Then Monday (My 65th birthday) she passed away. I didn't know she was ill. Apparently few did. My cousin Jim DID stop and see her and said she was fine as far as he could see.

I guess the point is, I didn't stop for the good Hug she always had ready. I missed it. I missed out.

SHE will be missed. But, now she is with her Man once again. Her kids will miss her. Barb and Pam. Paul, her son passed a few months ago. Her son Bernhard died years ago as a very young man. She had seen enough pain for a lifetime. I suspect eternity is better.

This made the song that's been in my head even more meaningful.

Ronnie Spector sings Johnny Thunder's "You can't put your arms around a Memory". It's true.

I missed my chance. But, I'll see you soon is really the case. Lead on Aunt Kathryn.

How the Elitists in Washington are trying to Revolutionize America

This is a sad time in America. The country is going thru an unwanted revolution. From within. By people without the best interests of the country at heart. I want America to survive. I hope it does before they destroy it:

Victor David Hanson

America’s Extreme Make-over

These are exciting though scary revolutionary times, akin to the constant acrimony in the fourth-century BC polis, mid-nineteenth century revolutionary Europe, or — perhaps in a geriatric replay — the 1960s. This is an era when the fundamental assumptions of the individual and the state are now being redefined, albeit in a weird, high-tech, globalized landscape.

Radical But Well Off

A word of caution: we are not talking about hoi polloi versus hoi oligoi, or the commune on the barricades fighting the estate owners. No, not this time around.

Instead, the present attempt to remake America is the effort of the liberal well-to-do — highly educated at mostly private universities, nursed on three decades of postmodern education, either with inherited wealth or earning top salaries, lifestyles of privilege indistinguishable from those they decry as selfish, and immune from the dictates they impose on others.

Such are basically the profiles of the Obama cabinet and sub-cabinet, the pillars of liberalism in the Congress and state legislatures, the public intellectuals in the universities and foundations, the arts crowd, and the Hollywood elite. Let us be clear about that.
You have to read the whole thing...this is just the first few paragraphs of this article.

Turning Left




Life As A Leftist
Nancy Morgan
RightBias.com
March 15, 2010

After much consideration, I have decided to become a leftist. Here's why:
As a leftist, I have a right to a living wage. I was born with this right and under the system of social justice Obama and friends are implementing, rich fat cats are under an obligation to pay for my rights.
As a leftist, I also have a right to free health care, a roof over my head, and food on my table. And as long as I keep voting for Democrats, this right will be protected and, hopefully expanded.
As a solid member of the left, I have the right to abort my baby, and even have other people pay for it. I also have the right to free (taxpayer funded) birth control and my boyfriend has the right to obtain sexual enhancement aids for free. Not that he needs them, but, hey, they're free.
As a leftist, I have the right to indulge in sluttish behavior with whomever I want. Not only that, I can describe myself as 'empowered' instead of merely being a tramp.
Being a good leftist, I have the right not to be insulted. My behavior is sanctioned by my fellow leftists and it has been decided that anyone who insults me is, by nature, a bigot, and therefore of no consequence.
I also have the right to redefine words. And the right to ridicule anyone who objects. Especially if they're white Christian males.
Best of all, I am under no obligation to back up my feelings with facts. We on the left understand very well that any and all criticism coming from the right is motivated by hate and therefore invalid.

As a leftist, I don't have to worry about the consequences of my actions. It is understood that as long as my intentions are pure, the end results don't matter. I want it known that I fully intend to donate my lottery winnings to those poor Haitians, just as soon as I win them. Please pat me on the back. (Wait for the cameras, you idiot!)
Being a leftist entitles me to marry someone of the same-sex. And my children will have the right to choose their own gender. And schools, businesses and agencies that don't accommodate our choices could well be liable for prosecution under the hate crimes bill. How cool is that?
I am also free to choose my own God, or no God. This is a no brainer, as everyone knows that Mother Earth is the source of all spirituality. So as long as I don't litter and I recycle faithfully, I can legitimately claim piety. And as long as I publicly confess my trangressions, there is no need to atone. Whew.
I am now morally justified in walking away from my home mortgage. Those greedy lenders will be left holding the bag. Maybe that will teach them there's more to life than the bottom line.

And the car I got under 'cash for clunkers' won't be paid for either. Its not my fault I couldn't pay for it. But as soon as I get my discrimination lawsuit settlement from my former boss, I'll be able to get it back. Or maybe a new one.

As a leftist, I need focus only on my rights, and their infringement thereof. The government has decided to shoulder my former responsibilities. And about time!

Life as a leftist is good. Having my needs and problems taken care of by the government leaves me free to indulge my inner child. I no longer need to be ashamed of my failures, as I now know that the deck has been stacked against me all my life and those failures were not my fault!

I am now liberated and empowered. As an added bonus, I am a member of four different victim groups, which allows me to maintain the high moral ground. This is called social justice.
I never knew life could be so good. All rights and no responsibilities! This could only happen in America. And as soon as the U.S. atones for past sins to my satisfaction, I'll be happy to admit that America is not a bad place to live.

Why does the Left Hate Women (if they are conservative) so much?

I'm not the only one who HATES these insidious piles of junk on the prairie...Neighbors of Wind Turbines speak out

This is near where I live. This despoiling of the natural landscape is beyond belief. For what? Some pixie dust scheme? The worst is, those supporting this catastrophe claim to love nature most....not so much. Why would anyone curse the earth with these hateful things?

Imitation is a sincere form of complement....Coffee Party Fakes

The "Coffee Party USA" is having a sort of grand opening, if you will, this Saturday, March 13. It's been carefully orchestrated nationally to appear to be grassroots, but we'll see why it's not in a moment as we look at a Chicago event. That event, in the north side neighborhood of Rogers Park, is being coordinated by Baxter Swilley, 34, a very busy Democrat operative who most recently served as Scott Lee Cohen's downstate director. He was also a major player with U.S. Rep. Jan Schakowsky.

The Tea Party movement - hundreds of groups across the country with no central committee or governing body - have been falsely criticized by the Left and Democrats as being controlled by the Republican Party. That is simply not true. What is true, however, is that a bizarre response to the Tea Parties has arisen, and it is the spawn of the Democrats. They call themselves, laughably, "The Coffee Party USA." We'll call them CPUSA (which, of course, could also stand for "Communist Party USA").

We Have Exceeded Our Credit Limit, Someone is About to Cut Up Our Credit Cards

50% of the federal budget right now goes to entitlements.

This last month we posted a record $220.9 billion budget deficit. We took in $107 billion but spent $328 billion.

Isn't that special. We only funded 32% of expenditures?

Remember - entitlements were half of that $328 billion.

So let's see if we can do the math here.

Entitlements were about $164 billion last month in spending. The rest was, of course, the rest.

But we only took in $107 billion.

So even if we eliminated all entitlement spending we still did not have enough money to cover the rest.

Yeah.

If you want to know why the market is floating higher it's for the same reason you feel all giddy and special when you strike out on the town with your shiny plastic. You have magic cards!

It doesn't matter if you have a job, it doesn't matter if you have any money in the bank, so long as you have magic cards.

For how long does the United States continue to have magic cards?

Remember, from my ticker the other day, the federal government is directly spending 9% more of GDP today than it was just two years ago.

The market and economy are absolutely dependent on the Federal Government continuing to do so. Should the government not be able (or willing) to continue to do so, S&P 666 or DOW 6,489 will look like a bull market.

Now add to this that the continued spending in this fashion inevitably will cause interest rates to rise. It simply must, whether that interest rate increase comes from actual Treasuries, or whether it comes from dollar devaluation and thus causes oil - and by extension virtually every other price in the market - to rise at a meteoric rate.

Oh, and if they choose the second (inflation)? Then, as I discussed earlier, that entitlement spending, which is set to go parabolic anyway as the boomer retire, will have an afterburner attached to its backside due to the fact that all of these programs are indexed to "inflation", with Medicare in particular being indexed at several multiples of inflation.

But for today, folks, it's "Rally On Garth" - even though all of the above is not conjecture, it's mathematical fact and inevitably must come to pass.

Muslim Man Rapes 2 1/2 year old little girl... no charges because she's from a Christian Home

Muslim Rapes Christian Toddler for Refusal to Convert to Islam


Christian girl aged
21/2 raped then left to die for the greater glory of Allah.

For some reason the BBC didn't report this story, probably to avoid damaging Community Cohesion.

"Baby Neeha, at the age of 21/2, was raped by the son of her father's employer and left to die by the roadside, he said. No one was arrested for the crime.

These horrific events took place because her father, who was Christian, refused to give in to pressure from his Muslim employer to convert to Islam," El Shafie said.

The family went underground in Pakistan to hide from Muslim extremists who were seeking revenge for their non-conversion, he said.

"The family has lived for years in hiding and in constant fear of being discovered by the employer's family or Islamic extremists," El Shafie said. "We are thrilled that she's finally in Canada."


For those of us seeking a better understanding Islam, there are a few points to note:

The rapist wasn't prosecuted, because according to Islamic law he hadn't committed any crime. The 'prophet' Mohammed was a child-rapist, and Mohammed is the perfect man and role model for all Muslims. Also, rape is a legitimate weapon of Jihad, especially against children, as we saw in the Beslan school attack.

Not only had the rapist not committed any crime, but his action was actually commendable from the Islamic point of view, because spreading Islam (by whatever means may be necessary) is the greatest good which justifies ANY action. The system of morality (if it can be called that) in Islam is totally different from that in any other religion.

This attack also shows a common Islamic trait of getting at Christians by attacking children and other vulnerable people (as at Beslan and in the 'Street Jihad' intifada by young Muslim men).

No compulsion in religion
The fate of baby Neeha should make us wary of Muslims who tell us that the Koran says there should be 'no compulsion in religion'. Yes the Koran does say that, but the statement is null and void, as the Muslim propagandists (but not the gullible infidels) very well know.

The Koran is full of contradictions, and later violent verses (such as 'Kill the unbelievers wherever you find them') abrogate (cancel out) the earlier peaceful ones.

The early peaceful verses were written when Mohammed was trying to recruit his fellow citizens of Mecca to join his cult. But he didn't have much success among the people he'd grown up with, because they knew he was a nutjob.

So he moved to Medina and adopted a different strategy of recruiting criminals and psychopaths by promising them lots of rape, murder and pillage in the service of Allah. This worked perfectly and gave us the version of Islam we see in action in the world today.

Quoting abrogated parts of the Koran to deceive the infidels is one of the tactics of taqiyya (lying and deception in the cause of Islam).

As I said before, increasing the power of Islam justifies ANY action, which includes lying as well as rape, murder and anything else you can think of.

Consequently, Jens Orback is living in fluffy-bunny-land if he thinks that if we are nice to the jihadists when they're in the minority, they'll be nice to us when we're in the minority.

There will be many thousands of baby Neehas and other violated kuffar children as multiculturalism is implemented throughout Europe, as the following links demonstrate...



Islamic Gang Rape and Pedophilia as a 'Community Activity'
Of course every culture produces rapists and child molesters, but in non-Muslim societies these are usually isolated loners. In contrast, Muslim rapists and pedophiles are well-organised and these predators often hunt their prey in rape-gangs in a tradition of Muslim razzia going back to the 'prophet'.


Beslan - Child rape, torture, enforced urophagia and murder in the name of Islam
Young girls were gang raped. Young girls were raped with gun barrels and other objects. Many young girls did not survive these rapes. Children were forced to drink their own urine before being executed.


Man boy sex (Pederasty) in Islam
In Muslim societies women are kept covered in burkhas, so the prettiest things that most unmarried Muslim men ever see are beardless pre-pubescent boys. Beardless boys are not regarded as male, so sex with them is not considered as homosexuality as it is between adult men.

Bacha bazi feminizes these boys in order to degrade them. By forcing them to perform in women's clothes and by raping them, this tradition not only seeks to humiliate these boys for the pleasure of wealthy men, but also to reinforce the idea that women are inferior and for a boy to have feminine affectations is degrading for him.



Muslim pedophile gangs prey on British Children
Pedophilia is socially acceptable in Islam because 'the perfect man' Mohammed was a pedophile. In addition, pedophile attacks on 'kuffar' (non-Muslim) children are seen as a legitimate form of jihad, inflicting humiliation and demoralisation on the children and their parents.



Mufa' Khathat - cleaning up the mess after thighing Ayesha
Mohammed married Ayesha when she was six but could not 'consummate' until she was nine. In the meantime he 'thighed' her then made her wash his semen off his clothes - a fact that is well documented in Islamic scriptures.



Inbreeding, Incest and Cousin Marriage in Islam
Young girls are sold as sex-slaves to older cousins and uncles to ensure that the bride purchase transaction money remains within the family.


Islamic Child Sexual Abuse: Muslim Pedophilia
Women are kept in purdah, and must be accompanied by a male relative whenever they leave the house. Wealthy older men acquire the youngest brides (often young cousins), with polygamy ensuring that young women are always in short supply for impoverished young men.


Islam is powered by Muslim sexual repression
Proponents of wars and terrorism in the name of Islam often exploited the frustration of sexually deprived young males and tantalised them with the prospect of captured women as ‘war booty’ if they succeeded. If they died, 72 lovely virgins in paradise as ‘houris’ would be provided to them which makes these boys ready to die for it, as suicide bombers.


95% of Pakistani Truckers have sex with Boys
Young boys are prostituted and abused in The Land of The Pure


Muslim sex criminals are above the law
Muslim pedophile gangs are immune from prosecution as police do not want to risk damaging 'community cohesion'.

Hypermasculine Muslims - Islam and hypermasculinity
Predatory
and domineering, Islam is a brutal, hypermasculine, barbarian, tribal warrior cult that glories in murder, mutilation, rape, genocide, terrorism, destruction and anarchy. Women, girls and all the feminine aspects human nature are chattelised and subjugated. Weakness is despised and seen as ripe for predation. A woman or girl is to be owned, not treated as an equal. If she punctures the fragile inflated ego of her owner, then she must be killed to restore the man's 'honour' among his peers. Kuffar women and children are war booty.

Islam is bullying, swaggering, predatory, wife-beating thuggery, which is the destroyer of all that is beautiful, spiritual, gentle, innocent and vulnerable.

Where Totalitarianism Takes You.. are we on the way?

A North Korean factory worker was publicly executed by firing squad for speaking to a friend in the South on an illegal mobile phone.

The armaments factory worker was accused of divulging the price of rice and other information on living conditions to the friend who defected to South Korea years ago.

The man, identified only by his surname Chong, made calls to the defector using an illegal Chinese mobile phone, North Korean state media said.

The execution took place in late January in the eastern coastal city of Hamhung.

Mobile phone use in authoritarian North Korea is tightly restricted, although the country introduced an advanced network in 2008.

North Koreans who manage to make illegal overseas mobile calls mostly use networks in neighbouring China.

More than 10,000 North Koreans living near the border with China are thought to own Chinese mobiles.

The North Korean defector said to have received the calls, only identified by the common Korean family name of Kim, may have worked for South Korean government officials.

North Korea has long been regarded as having one of the world's worst human rights records, including public executions, political prison camps and torture.

Obama has turned the American Government into one HUGE Dilbert Cartoon

Daily Voice:
Daily we’re assaulted by a Washington elite dedicated to proving Saturday Night Live never went far enough into satire to capture the nonsensical folly of our elected leaders.

Hourly, our intelligence is insulted by people telling us they want to spend more money to lower the deficit and balance the budget as the deficit climbs higher and faster than ever before, and the national debt careens past satire into the theater of the absurd. Minute by minute, we’re assaulted by news such as the self admitted communist who was purged from the White House in the middle of the night is now an American Treasure. Or that the President’s long time pastor and mentor Rev. Wright recently honored Minister Louis Farrakhan, the leader of the Nation of Islam, with the Rev. Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Lifetime Achievement Trumpeteer award. Is that the last trumpet I hear?

Suffice it to say the national scene in America today appears determined to prove one of Mark Twain’s less repeated quotes, “Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it.”

Why I detest so much of evangelicalism's lukewarm message

Here's a view of the Focus on the Family split that illustrates why I detest so much of the preaching I hear on the Radio. I can barely stand to listen any more. I end up screaming at the radio.

There are some real offenders. I got into a heated discussion over this with my family over the weekend. BUT, the result of what happens when lukewarm poor theology takes over is the story of Focus on the Family.

Just because someone has a strong Biblical Based opinion that irritates and offends others doesn't mean that the opposite is right. It's not. Jesus said that.

"A STONE OF STUMBLING AND A ROCK OF OFFENSE"; for they stumble because they are disobedient to the word, and to this doom they were also appointed. 1 Peter 2:8

Obama not only wants to take away your guns, he wants to take away your fishing pole too

Think I’m kidding? Read it and throw away your tackle box.

Don't Worry about a thing.... Windpower will save us...What a crock

You remember what Obama said during the campaign?

A taped interview Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama did with the San Francisco Chronicle in January 2008.

In the interview, which has is available online, Obama talks about the importance of coal. He went on to talk about his cap and trade proposal to help curb global warming.

“If somebody wants to build a coal power plant they can, it’s just that it will bankrupt them because they are going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that’s being emitted,” Barack Obama said to the San Francisco Chronicle.

Well, the green movement, government regulations and Obama’s attitude toward coal power has resulted in the abortion of 3 coal power plants.

Want to see cap and trade in action? This is that. When your electric rates double in North Dakota, you have Obama to thank.

Everyone in the world disrespects the world more than they did during Bush years...geee wonder why?

Here’s the article I’m sure you saw.
A majority of Americans say the United States is less respected in the world than it was two years ago and think President Obama and other Democrats fall short of Republicans on the issue of national security, a new poll finds.

Gosh, that Hope and Change sure changed our image in the world more hopeless than it used to be.

Sarah Palin does Stand Up Comedy on Jay Leno...And she's GOOD

Why Windpower will Never be more than Ugly Window Dressing

I have hated every wind turbine inflicted against the pure sky. And they are getting worse. Fortunately, common sense is beginning to take hold.

There is no good reason to do this.

And this article tells in part why.

Dr. David Barton - on Obama

Respect the Office? Yes.

Respect the Man in the Office? No, I am sorry to say.

I have noted that many elected officials, both Democrats and Republicans, called upon America to unite behind Obama.

Well, I want to make it clear to all who will listen that I AM NOT uniting behind Obama !

I will respect the Office which he holds, and I will acknowledge his abilities as an orator and wordsmith and pray for him, BUT that is it.

I have begun today to see what I can do to make sure that he is a one-term President!

Why am I doing this ?

It is because:
  • - I do not share Obama's vision or value system for America ;
  • - I do not share his Abortion beliefs;
  • - I do not share his radical Marxist's concept of re-distributing wealth;
  • - I do not share his stated views on raising taxes on those who make $150,000+ (the ceiling has been changed three times since August);
  • - I do not share his view that America is Arrogant;
  • - I do not share his view that America is not a Christian Nation;
  • - I do not share his view that the military should be reduced by 25%;
  • - I do not share his view of amnesty and giving more to illegals than our American Citizens who need help;
  • - I do not share his views on homosexuality and his definition of marriage;
  • - I do not share his views that Radical Islam is our friend and Israel is our enemy who should give up any land;
  • - I do not share his spiritual beliefs (at least the ones he has made public);
  • - I do not share his beliefs on how to re-work the healthcare system in America ;
  • - I do not share his Strategic views of the Middle East ; and
  • - I certainly do not share his plan to sit down with terrorist regimes such as Iran .
Bottom line: my America is vastly different from Obama's, and I have a higher obligation to my Country and my GOD to do what is Right !

Unite behind Obama? Never ! ! !

I am sure many of you who read this think that I am going overboard, but I refuse to retreat one more inch in favor of those whom I believe are the embodiment of Evil!

I pray that the results of this election will wake up many who have sat on the sidelines and allowed the Socialist-Marxist anti-GOD crowd to slowly change so much of what has been good in America !

Just doing my part to bankrupt America

Today is my first day on national health insurance. I want to do my part to put the country further into debt, bankrupt your grandchildren and destroy our economy. Meanwhile later this month I will go into have my first government paid medical tests. If I do my part as the leading edge of Baby Boomers I will use up all the money I ever paid into the system in the first month.

THANX SUCKAS

Socialism is great.

Worn out but not yet thrown away

Victor David Hansen asks the musical question. Is the nation suffering from OBAMA FATIGUE?

I might have developed this malady earlier than most, but it is contagious.

Why Alternative Power Sources are Hopelessly Useless

From Shannon Love:

Here’s a fact you won’t see mentioned in the public policy debate over “alternative” energy:

There exists no alternative energy source, no combination of alternative energy sources, and no system of combinations of alternative energy sources that can fully replace a single, coal fired electric plant built with 1930s era technology.

Nada
Zero
Zilch.

Yet many want to make this group of functionally useless technologies the primary energy sources for our entire civilization.

Most discussions of alternative energy talk only about the cost and reliability of the electricity when it leaves the grounds of the alternative-energy installation. This is called the Point of Generation (POG). However, energy is useless unless you have it where you need it, when you need it. It does no good to have plenty of power in Arizona when your work and home are in Michigan. It does no good to have a roaring fire in July when you’re freezing in January. Therefore, the only real factors that count are the cost and reliability at the Point of Consumption (POC).


Read the whole thing.. It's fascinating and sobering.

Can Sarah Palin save the USA??

I have been a Palin supporter for a long time. I know many people think she's not the real deal. BUT, more and more the drumbeat for her is being heard. She may be the one person that can save this country from the nutcases.

This guy agrees.

Hate Sells: Why Liberal Magazines Are Suffering Under Obama

Vanity Fair magazine tracks the decline and fall of left wing hate magazines since George Bush is no longer President. Who buys or subscribes to a Hate Rag when there is nothing to hate.
Ideologically driven magazines tend to thrive on feelings of anger and disenfranchisement, and while liberals were hardly pleased with Obama’s first year in office, the disappointment can’t compare to the emotions that Darth Cheney and Cowboy Bush inspired.
BUT,

Reading this article, the money line is the last one.
It may not be until 2013 and the inauguration of President Palin that left-wing publications attain their former heights.

I figure Mother Jones is secretly supporting the Election of Sarah.

OK, I'm in.

Discouraged with the GOP

We who have been disdained as Tea Party are now being excluded. The GOP, the party of universal failure, has made a decision to set us aside after using us well.

We all helped get Fresh RINO meat elected (Scott Brown). Newtie must be smiling.

They have divided us….The GOP is NOT our Friend.

The enemy of my enemy has to be my friend. So, if the GOP is in opposition to the Marxists in power, then I guess I have to be a friend. It’s just that being a friend of the GOP is such a lose lose situation for me. I have tried to be helpful.

YET, they crap on us. On me.

They used us and now think we are going to go lockstep into that dark night.

I’m not crazy about a third party, but since the GOP is as corrupt and spendthrift as the thieves who presently occupy the White House and the Congress, I guess maybe what the world sees as third party is really just a viable second party of a defacto one party system.

In Macon County in Southern IL the GOP establishment have made the decision to exclude any TEA Party candidates who legitimately won positions in the party.

Is there any state in the union more corrupt than IL? And is there any difference between a GOP that does this and the ACORN thugs that have taken over the Democrat party?

If you want to murder somebody in America, be sure to convert to Islam first

By Bryan Fischer
Political correctness is now so out of control in America that the one sure way to beat the death penalty for cold-blooded murder is to convert to Islam.

Faleh al-Maleki ran over his own daughter with the family car in Arizona last fall, in a brutal “honor killing.” His daughter had become “too Westernized,” and in the Religion of Peace this is a capital offense all over the world.

The public defender pressured the prosecutor’s office to abandon pursuit of the death penalty for this heinous crime just to make sure “that there is no appearance that a Christian is seeking to execute a Muslim for racial, political, religious or cultural beliefs.”

The prosecutor’s office meekly complied.

'The New GM (Government Motors) Proudly Introduces the 2010 Obama'


2010 Obama
This car runs on hot air and broken promises. It has three wheels that speed the vehicle through tight left turns. It comes complete with two TelePrompters programmed to help the occupants talk their way out of any violations. The transparent canopy reveals the plastic smiles still on the faces of all the "happy" owners.

Comes in S, M, L, XL and 2XL It won't get you to work, but hey, there aren't any jobs anyway!

People Believe the Government is about to Steal all the Money in your IRA and 401k like they did in Argentiana

I listened to Bob Brinker's Money Talk on radio yesterday. He was incensed at a plan some are talking about in the Administration and in the halls of congress to confiscate all the money in your IRA and 401K in order to finance the government.

That would take care of our deficit problems. There is a lot of money out there.

How would this happen? Probably as it did in Argentina. A crisis (never waste a crisis) would be declared. All the money would be confiscated in exchange for a monthly check from the government. So (they would say) you didn't lose anything. You are getting about what you would have received if you had invested for monthly income.

Of course that money is now gone and you can't buy a house, a farm, take a world cruise.

I have done a bit of research on this. It appears to be a real threat.

Hope and Change for Marxists.

Obamafun

A real Roadsign in Kenya…. No photoshop
Image and video hosting by TinyPic

OK, upon further examination, it is photoshopped.

But ... I like it.

Carpet Bombing our Economy

1. Federal Budget Deficit Bomb: It started with Bush: The wars, TARP, spending. Obama is only accelerating spending. His budget for 2010 is $14.3 trillion. It was $7.8 trillion in 2005. The CBO predicts future deficits around 4 percent through 2020. America's debt at 84 percent of GDP will soon pass that "toxic" 90 percent trigger point

2. U.S. Foreign Trade Bomb: $400 billion in trade deficits are added each year and foreigners now own $2.5 trillion of America, with China holding over $1.3 trillion in Treasury debt. And they're not our biggest bank.

3. Weakening U.S. Dollar as Foreign Reserve Currency Bomb: If the dollar is replaced as main foreign reserves — and it's falling — "the main index measuring dollar strength has gone from 120 at the Clinton-to-Bush handoff to below 80 today."

4. Cheap Money Bomb — Credit Ratings Down, Rates Up: As debt climbs and the bank ratings fall, interest rates will skyrocket.

5. Global Real Estate Bomb: Dubai is falling apart because of over-speculation. People stopped buying real estate. They've got massive empty towers. Even the tallest building sits empty. Commercial real estate bubble is now $1.7 trillion. People are still behind on mortgages at all-time highs; did we really hit bottom on real estate yet?

6. Peak Oil and the Population Bomb: United Nations estimates world population exploding 50 percent — now, it's the United Nations and I'm not paying attention to them anymore.

7. Social Security Bomb: They've been telling us for a while that by 2035 it will go haywire. But for the first time in history Social Security is in the red. Check your calendar: Is it 2035 yet? Let's see, will politicians cut benefits? Nope, they're weasels. Will they raise taxes we can't afford to pay? What do you think?

8. Medicare Nuclear Bomb: It's going broke faster than Social Security. The Republican progressive prescription drug benefit added an unfunded $8.1 trillion. In five years, estimates rose from about $35 trillion to over $60 trillion now. And they are talking about expanding it in the new health care bill? Along with covering 30 million new people?

9. Health Care Insurance Bomb: "The burden has increasingly shifted to employees. Costs are rising faster than inflation."

10. State and Local Government Budget Bombs: "Deficits of $110 billion in 2010; $178 billion in 2011, on top of more that $450 billion in under-funded state and municipal employee pension funds."

11. Under-funded Corporate Pensions Bomb: Guess who picks up the tab for the $409 billion deficit in under-funded pensions that default? Taxpayers.

12. Consumer Debt Bomb: "Americans are still living beyond their means. Even with a downturn, consumer debt rose from about $2.3 to $2.5 trillion." Hmm, spending more, earning less....

13. Personal Savings Bomb: "Before the 2008 meltdown savings rate dropped from about 10 percent in the early 1980s to below zero." Now it's creeping up: 70 percent of our economy is based on spending.

14. War and Military Defense Deficits: "Costs of Iraq and Afghanistan wars — $200+ billion annually, $3 trillion minimum... long-term costs for veteran medical care, equipment renewal, recruitment."

15. Homeland Insecurity Bomb: "Security at airports, seaports, borders, vulnerable chemical plants all increase budgets."

16. Fed/Treasury Bailout Bombs: Government shifts burden of failing businesses from those businesses to the American taxpayer.

17. Insatiable Washington Lobbyists Bombs: You've seen what "no lobbyists" in an administration looks like. It ends up being 30-plus. Andy Stern, the unions, Goldman — voters and even Congress is becoming irrelevant.

18. Shadow Banking Derivatives Bomb: "Wall Street wants no regulation of this $670 trillion, high-risk, out-of-control casino that's highly leveraged versus the $50 trillion total GDP of all nations. We forget that derivatives almost destroyed global economies in 2008-09, finally will by 2012."

19. Dysfunctional Two-Party Political Bomb: Parties continue to choose politics over the good of the country. Progressives continue to infect both parties and thwart the Constitution.

20. The Coming Populous Rebellion Bombs: The media will say those are the Tea Parties. Let me show you what it really is. Van Jones: A 9/11 Truther, radical communist who set up organizations to defend cop killers. He was in the White House and now is going out on a speaking tour with a senator from New York. The influence is already here.

An Interesitng Idea.... Church is NOT for Believers (by Alan Knox)

Three years ago, I first read Martin Luther’s “The German Mass and Order of Divine Service”. I wrote a post about it called “Luther and the Church.” Since then I’ve written other posts as well. I was surprised when I read that Luther was convinced that the “Mass” or “Divine Service” was not for the church but was for unbelievers. I was also surprised to read what Luther said a meeting of true believers should look like.

————————————————-

Luther and the Church

In the preface of “The German Mass and Order of Divine Service” (1526), Martin Luther describes three different kinds of “divine service”. The first and second kinds of “divine service” are differentiated only by the languages used (Latin and German, respectively). Importantly, this is what Luther says of these two kinds of “divine service”:

Both these kinds of Service then we must have held and publicly celebrated in church for the people in general. They are not yet believers or Christians. But the greater part stand there and gape, simply to see something new: and it is just as if we held Divine Service in an open square or field amongst Turks or heathen. So far it is no question yet of a regularly fixed assembly wherein to train Christians according to the Gospel: but rather of a public allurement to faith and Christianity.

Thus, for Luther, the public service in both Latin and German are for the purpose of exposing unbelievers to the Gospel. Notice that he does not see these services as being for Christians. So, what does Luther proscribe for believers? Keep reading for his “third sort of divine service”:

But the third sort [of Divine Service], which the true type of Evangelical Order should embrace, must not be celebrated so publicly in the square amongst all and sundry. Those, however, who are desirous of being Christians in earnest, and are ready to profess the Gospel with hand and mouth, should register their names and assemble by themselves in some house to pray, to read, to baptize and to receive the sacrament and practise other Christian works. In this Order, those whose conduct was not such as befits Christians could be recognized, reproved, reformed, rejected, or excommunicated, according to the rule of Christ in Matt. xviii. Here, too, a general giving of alms could be imposed on Christians, to be willingly given and divided among the poor, after the example of St. Paul in 2 Cor. ix. Here there would not be need of much fine singing. Here we could have baptism and the sacrament in short and simple fashion: and direct everything towards the Word and prayer and love. Here we should have a good short Catechism about the Creed, the Ten Commandments, and the Lord’s Prayer. In one word, if we only had people who longed to be Christians in earnest, Form and Order would soon shape itself. But I cannot and would not order or arrange such a community or congregation at present. I have not the requisite persons for it, nor do I see many who are urgent for it. But should it come to pass that I must do it, and that such pressure is put upon me as that I find myself unable with a good conscience to leave it undone, then I will gladly do my part to secure it, and will help it on as best I can.

It seems that Luther is calling for a different type of meeting for believers. In this meeting, Luther does not have to order things. Instead, he sees that “the form and order would soon shape itself.” (I would add that it is the Spirit that forms and orders the meetings.) In fact, Luther sees baptism and the Lord’s Supper happening in this group – not in one of the public meetings that are meant for unbelievers. Notice also that in this meeting, believers would teach one another and take up money to give to the poor.

So, why did Luther not pursue this type of service? Well, he tells us here that he does not know “earnest” Christians willing to participate in this type of meeting. History tells us that Luther later relented from this position in order to appease the state church.

Everything that follows this point in “The German Mass and Order of Divine Service” describes how to carry out the first two kinds of “Divine Service”, which Luther said were not intended for believers, but for unbelievers. We will never know what would have happened historically if Luther had held to his convictions: “I will gladly do my part to secure it, and will help it on as best I can.”

The one year Anniversary of the Tea Party Movement

One year ago this morning Rick Santelli went off on the Rant Heard Round the World.

He called for a new Tea Party. It had never been said before then.

Those few minutes, those few words have changed everything.

I am Proud to be a member (whatever that means) of the Tea Party Movement. There are a lot of attacks. Ignore them. Sarah Palin was right, as long as no one tries to control or lead the movement it will prosper.

Sure there are intramural fights. They happen in every move. They will happen in this one too. But if we ignore the naysayers, if we ignore those who make fun of us, if we ignore the media's drumbeat to silence us all we can take back the government from those who would try to control us all.

Thank you Rick Santelli for these words that launched a thousand rallies and a movement to restore government to it's righteous roots.

When Dummies Vote

"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”


This IS the reason we need VOTER REFORM! I think it should be as simple as if you do NOT pay taxes you can NOT vote. Why should those who do NOT contribute to the pot have any say in how the pot is spent? I know that sounds radical, but I believe the vote should be used as a means of encouraging people to work harder, as incentive to better themselves so they can have a say in how things are run insted of having to put up with what those who can vote relegate them to. I believe that would work ALOT better than as it is NOW with those who DO NOT contribute, and make no mistake they are fast approaching as many as those of us who DO! We damn sure don't want it to come to those who DO NOT pay, telling those of us who DO pay how it's going to be!

November Start to vote those who have ABUSED our trust and BLOWN our money on BOTH sides of the isle OUT! Vote in some Pro-American values, taxpayer, capitalist IN!
