ObamaCare Top Ten List

Here are the Top Ten Indicators that you're enrolled in government's proposed Health Care Plan:


10 - Your annual breast exam is done at Hooters.

9 - Directions to your doctor's office include "Take a left when you enter the trailer park."

8 - The tongue depressors taste faintly of a Fudgesicle.

7 - The only proctologist in the plan is "Gus" from Roto-Rooter.

6 - The only item listed under Preventive Care Coverage is "an apple a day...."

5 - Your primary care physician is wearing the pants you gave to Goodwill last month.

4 - "The patient is responsible for 200% of out-of-network charges" is not a typographical error..

3 - The only expense covered 100% is "embalming."

2 - Your Prozac comes in different colors with little "M's" on them.

1 - You ask for Viagra and they give you a Popsicle stick and some Duct tape.

You Spend Two Trillion Bucks...

Apparently this song has been around for a while. I just heard it this morning on The Nearly Famous Barry Young Show, on KFYI in Phoenix, AZ, and wanted to share it with you.

Barry and his producer, Corella Michela Buffy Lee Larson, along with their engineer Andrew Babinski, are a phenomenal team of Conservative talkers. If don't live in Phoenix, but you have the time and interest in listening to some entertaining and informative talk radio (complete with Religion Of Peace Updates), I highly recommend you download their podcasts.

If you follow this link to Barry's show you can hear the same song, but it's set to a different video than the one I have. It's fun too, but I especially like this one, because it was created by those racists at The National Black Republican Association, who certainly must be anti-Obama because of his skin color...

Enjoy, and as always thanks for stopping by!

An American Divorce

As found on ResistNet.com, a bit of Sunday "humor" for you...


DIVORCE AGREEMENT



Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and

Obama supporters, et,al:


We have stuck together since the late 1950's, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce.
I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course.
Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right, so let's just end it on friendly terms.
We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences, and go our separate ways.


Here is a model separation agreement:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy!

Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

Here's how:
1) We don't like redistributive taxes, so you can keep them.
2) You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU.
3) Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military.
4) You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them).
5) We will keep the capitalistic, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street.
6) You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens.
7) We'll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO's and rednecks.
8) We'll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood.
9) You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us.
10) You can have the peaceniks and war protesters.
11) We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values.
12) You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain.
13) You can also have the U.N., but we will no longer be paying the bill.
14) We'll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and over-sized luxury cars.
15) You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.
16) You can give everyone health care if you can find any practicing doctors.
17) We'll continue to believe health care is a luxury and not a right. And, that we have the best care in the world right here in America.
18) We'll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem.
19) I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute "Imagine," "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing," "Kum bay ya" or "We Are the World."
20) We'll practice trickle-down economics and you can give trickle-up poverty your best shot.
21) Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots. If you do not agree, hit delete.

In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you ANWAR which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.


Sincerely,

John J. Wall

Law Student and an American {Sherman}

P.S. Also, please take Barbara Streisand & Jane Fonda with you. Thank You.


I think the only things he forgot are The Constitution, which leftists clearly don't respect, and the Declaration of Independence. I suppose they both fall under the category of 'our history' to some degree, but I'd add them to the list, just to be sure.

He also forgot to be sure that Alec Baldwin, Janine Garofalo, and a handful of others made the 'please take' list, but they are leftists, so I guess it's assumed...?

If You Have Not Seen This, You Need To

On his YouTube page, the Marine in the video says this:

"I, David William Hedrick, a member of the silent majority, decided that I was not going to be silent anymore. So, I let U.S. Congressman Brian Baird have it. I was one questioner out of 38, that was called at random from an audience that started at 3,000 earlier in the evening. Not expecting to be called on, I quickly scratched what I wanted to say on a borrowed piece of paper and with a pen that I borrowed from someone else in the audience minutes before I spoke. So much for the planned talking points of the right wing conspiracy."

Update: Glenn Beck Sponsorship

I previously posted about some letters I had written to Glenn Beck's sponsors, as well as a letter I received from GEICO regarding their subjective decision. Today I checked my email, and found a second letter; this from ConAgra Foods:

August 21, 2009

Dear Soloman,

Your communication concerning the problem you experienced with our products was most welcome. We appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention.

Thank you for sharing your perspective with us regarding our decision not to advertise during the Glenn Beck show. Like many other advertisers, we work through a media buyer to purchase time on broadcast stations during periods when our targeted demographic is likely to be watching. Our advertisements are never intended to support or endorse a particular program, and we do not determine our media purchases based on interest groups or political agendas.

Regarding this decision, we want to be clear that ConAgra Foods is firmly committed to diversity. That commitment is not related in any way to a political or special interest group agenda-our commitment to diversity is core to our company's values. In addition, our advertising objectives-including reaching our targeted demographic-can be accomplished without the use of purchased air time during the Glenn Beck show.

Thank you so much for taking the time to contact us and for your interest in our fine products.

Sincerely,

Lesley
Consumer Affairs

I will again state my opinion. These places of business have every right to make any business decision they see as prudent. However, it is my belief that these decisions are not being made objectively. I also know that they are being strongly influenced by left wing extremist organizations, most specifically ColorOfChange.org, as can be seen by the "Featured Campaign" on the front page of ColorOfChange.org. It reads as follows:

"Fox's Glenn Beck recently said President Obama is "a racist" and has a "deep-seated hatred for white people." Beck is on a campaign to convince the American public that President Obama's agenda is about serving the needs of Black communities at White people's expense. It's repulsive, divisive and shouldn't be on the air.

Join us in calling on Beck's advertisers to stop sponsoring his show."

Now, to be fair, the quotes as described are not completely accurate, and are taken completely out of the context in which they are made during the course of a conversation that lasted over 10 minutes.

Furthermore, Beck's intent is assumed by ColorOfChange.org; it is completely subject to the interpretation of the people who create and maintain that website and any organization that may benefit from that website's efforts.

Here is the video from which the quotes in question are taken, the first at about 0:33, the second at about 2:00.



I do not believe that Glenn Beck is "On a campaign to convince the American public that President Obama's agenda is about serving the needs of Black communities at White people's expense." I do, however, believe that by presenting the facts in the following clip as well as many other facts over the course of Barack Obama's campaign and presidency, Glenn Beck is doing the American people a service that should be done by people with degrees in Journalism who are paid specifically for that work.



Glenn Beck has articulated the reasons for his beliefs on more than one occasion. While Beck's conclusion is subjective, it is his right to state his conclusion. I also understand that it is the right of ColorOfChange.org to attempt to manipulate the marketplace in order to persecute those with whom they disagree.

If I could, I would challenge the people at ColorOfChange.org to produce a thoughtful and articulate statement as to exactly why Glenn Beck is incorrect, rather than playing a game of political intimidation through marketplace manipulation.

In the meantime, thanks for stopping by - and your thoughts are always welcome.

On The Road To Recovery?

As reported by WIVB Channel 4 in Buffalo, NY, Castle Products, located in Rochester, New York is on a hiring spree.

It seems that ever since the inception of President Obama's immaculate concept, The Car Allowance Rebate System - more commonly known as "Cash For Clunkers," Castle Products can not keep enough product on its shelf to meet demand.

As part of the "Cash For Clunkers" agreement, dealerships are to follow a procedure as outlined here. The Clunker Bomb- a "liquid glass" made primarily of sodium silicate, kills a motor when poured in.

The Clunker Bomb is to be used once all of the oil is drained out of the engine of the vehicle being "clunked." After a few more steps, a few simple procedures can be taken to assure that the "bombing" is done properly.

It seems there is so much demand for "The Clunker Bomb" that Castle Products has hired on six additional full time employees. However, there have been no statements from management at Castle Products regarding the security of those new employees, as The Car Allowance Rebate System ends on Monday.

You don't have to represent them...

A classic Chris Matthews & MSNBC moment. If you don't want to bore yourself with the rest of the nonsense, the most telling moment comes literally at the end of the segment, about 9:38 into the video. Listen to what Matthews says, and Weiner doesn't deny...
