YAWN. Obama lies again

Obama takes Clintonism to New Heights


EAST PEORIA, ILL. -- President Obama today repeated the claim we asked about yesterday at the press briefing that Jim Owens, the CEO of Caterpillar, Inc., "said that if Congress passes our plan, this company will be able to rehire some of the folks who were just laid off."

Caterpillar announced 22,000 layoffs last month.

But after the president left the event, Owens said the exact opposite.
What a lying douche.

Oh Gawd I'm Stimulated" - Nancy Pelosi


Talk about a pet project. A tiny mouse with the longtime backing of a political giant may soon reap the benefits of the economic-stimulus package.

Lawmakers and administration officials divulged Wednesday that the $789 billion economic stimulus bill being finalized behind closed doors in Congress includes $30 million for wetlands restoration that the Obama administration intends to spend in the San Francisco Bay Area to protect, among other things, the endangered salt marsh harvest mouse.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi represents the city of San Francisco and has previously championed preserving the mouse's habitat in the Bay Area.

Disunited States



The 1996 Welfare Reform bill marked the first time any government entitlement had ever been rolled back. Despite liberal howling and foot-stomping, not subsidizing illegitimacy led, like night into day, to less illegitimacy.

Well, that's over. The stimulus bill goes a long way toward repealing the work requirement of the 1996 Republican Welfare Reform bill and rewards states that increase their welfare caseloads by paying unwed mothers to sit home doing nothing.

Second, bureaucrats at Health and Human Services will electronically collect every citizen's complete medical records

and determine appropriate medical care.

HHS bureaucrats will soon be empowered to overrule your doctor. Doctors who don't comply with the government's treatment protocols will be fined. That's right: Instead of your treatment being determined by your doctor, it will be settled on by some narcoleptic half-wit in Washington who couldn't get a job in the private sector.

And a brand-new set of bureaucrats in the newly created office of "National Coordinator of Health Information Technology" will be empowered to cut off treatments that merely prolong life. Sorry, Mom and Pop, Big Brother said it's time to go.

At every other workplace in the nation – even Wal-Mart! – workers are being laid off. But no one at any of the bloated government bureaucracies ever need fear receiving a pink slip. All 64,750 employees at the department of Health and Human Services are apparently absolutely crucial to the smooth functioning of the department.

Robert Kennedy famously said: "There are those who look at things the way they are and ask, 'Why?' I dream of things that never were and ask, 'Why not?'"

The new liberal version is: There are those who look at things and ask, "Why on earth should the government be paying for that?" I dream of things that never were funded by the government and ask, "Why not?" [etc]

What is it exactly we're still  United over?

Snakes in the tall grass



This is a tough one.  On one hand I feel for the cat, but the predator is, well, into predation.  I hate anonymous slash and burn artists, but appreciate the Web'spromise of anonymity, for the very reason that lawmakers hate it.   Poison penners are usually democrats, ugh, but CEO Chris Tolles also manages to stink up.

"We do not just give up people's privacy," said the Web site's CEO Chris Tolles. "We're very, very careful about that."

But Tolles said the discussions are not necessarily a license to run people through the mud. "If there is a line that's been crossed from a libel standpoint — and it seems reasonable — we do, in fact, cooperate with the courts."

Proud Mary said it right, in fewer words.  "One to watch."

Crime Drama

Great Escapes
Full Court Press
By now you prolly have a feel for how my movie preferences square with yours.  Because of the overthrow of our gummint, I've been taking refuge in movie fantasy of late.  Since I went a few years without watching hardly anything, everything is a wonder for me now, although certainly behind the times for the avid movie goer.  Here are two I recently watched on cable (Find Me Guilty was "on demand.")  Had never heard of either one, and both were utterly compelling.  FMG is a Five Star, or ½  BOOGERS pick for me.  My only prollem with it -- I  found myself rooting for mafioso Jack DiNorscio.  Didn't want to, but I did.  So will you.  True story, and funny as hell.  Ben, the "small person" lawyer is great.

Training his lens on infamous mobster "Fat" Jack DiNorscio (Vin Diesel) -- a man who decided to defend himself in court rather than rat out his cohorts -- acclaimed director Sidney Lumet (Dog Day Afternoon, 12 Angry Men) recounts the longest Mafia trial in U.S. history. Ron Silver and Annabella Sciorra co-star in this gripping legal drama, which draws its dialogue from actual courtroom transcripts

.
Anthony Hopkins needs no pumping up, he's always good.  Had never heard of this film though.  His nemesis in this film is terrific.  Never figured it out, or saw it coming. I give it 4½ stars, or 1½ BOOGERS
Anthony Hopkins stars in this legal thriller as Ted Crawford, a man who allegedly attempted to murder his wife and is now locked in a battle of wits with an assistant district attorney, Willy Beachum (Ryan Gosling). The D.A.'s convinced Crawford has blood on his hands, but Crawford is freed on a technicality, sending Beachum on an obsessive mission to prove Crawford's guilt -- even if he has to bend the law to make his case.

Anthony Hopkins needs no pumping up, he's always good.  Had never heard of this film either.  His nemesis in this film is terrific.

Chrissie's Dentist

Why Everyone Loves Chrissie
Hi
 
OH get this...LOL I had a dentist appt. today and he is a Republican. Nicholas and I kid him because the dentist will talk politics while he has the patient in the chair and their mouth all full of dentist tools and heavy on the Novocain. hahaha
 
The way we found out he was a Republican it was on one of my appointments and he and his assistant had that tube thingie in my mouth that squirts water while they drill kind of thing. It can really fill a person's mouth up with water if the assistant is not making sure to have that sucking tube with it to keep it ok. LOL I know lots of details but this is what happened. haha  For one second some of the water slipped past the back of my throat and I tried to swallow fast since it felt like downing just for a second.  He asked if I was ok and I told him. Sure I always like to be waterboarded. He laughed so hard and then he started to talk about how our troops should be able to waterboard or whatever they need to do to get information. From them on it we knew he was a conservative and he knew we were too. giggle
 
Anyway he has a TV in each of his treatment rooms and he keeps it on CNN and FOX depending on what it is set for that day. Today they were showing Obama in Ft.Myers making his stupid speech and taking questions. The dentist said ...." Look at that guy he is destroying our country. That stimulus bill won't stimulate anything, it is a stimulus for welfare and handouts and political. "
 
When he got done he said...." I drive my democrat patients a little nuts but I can't resist when I have a captive audience."  hahaha
 
I asked him if they complain and he said not really most of them like to debate him once he gets the dental tools out of their mouths.
 
As I was leaving I handed him one of my little cards ( it is like a business card) I hand out with my blog address on them.

Newsweek

Our insurgent government's
"Mission Accomplished"

                                         The Obamacy
A year ago, this obvious fact would have been denied out-of-hand by the liberal leftists.  Now, less than a month into "Dear Leader's" regime, they are coming out from under their rocks and proudly confirming what many clear thinkers from both sides of the aisle have known for some time now.

Actually, they're a bit late by declaring their acknowledgment of this obvious fact.  With growing government ownership in Industry (Banks and the Auto companies), their pending involvement and oversight of personal medical information, the infrastructure "bailout (which is loaded with pork), their backing away from prosecuting America's sworn terrorist criminals, the hi-jacking of the Census (and the impact it will have in weighting the votes of both Houses), the building of bureaucracy upon bureaucracy,  ..... etc....etc....etc....   To hell with "Socialism"... we are already well on our way to full fledged Communism.

Those children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren of the apologists and deniers that don't see this, or are reluctant to admit it..will be the innocent victims of the fate that the future holds for them.... thanks to today's generation (the one that grew up in the Golden Age of the U.S.)

Lady Hoops


I watched Maryland's girl's basketball team play Boston College last night, and it may be the the best game I've seen this year.  I kept thinking during the game that the MD's women's team would prolly win 3 out of 10 against the men's team, maybe more.  They are amazing ball handlers, passers, and unconscious from three point range.  I don't think either team missed a free throw.  Boston College had a little red head shrimp, Mickel Picco, who was scoring falling down from mid court. .  The officiating is like the Big Ten's on steroids ... nothing's called.  You get clobbered inside.    All in all, I enjoy men's and women's hoops equally, and I wish there was more of it televised.  Wait. There's one difference.  I want to hug  Kristi Toliver to pieces. Never felt that way about Greivis Vasquez.

The Goebbels Conspiracy

David Westin, call your office
Media punks run amok


In 1998 ABC NEWS fired veteran reporter Bob Zelnick, ostensibly because he signed a contract with Regnery Books for an Al Gore biography, a conflict of interest for an ABC reporter, according to David Westin.   That was the show pony.  Zelnick was under fire from media liberals for a previous book, Backfire, that cataloged the unintended consequences of racial quotas.  And this ... take note of this.
Jane Mayer is a pro-Clinton hack who writes for The New Yorker and who protested Zelnick's reporting on a show featuring Gary Aldrich, the author of Regnery's Unlimited Access. ABC News President David Westin agreed, writing to Zelnick that his appearance "held up to ridicule that our reporting is influenced by views you/we have formed about the individual involved."
Westin later had no such compunction about hiring Clinton puppet, liberal Democrat and political hack George Stephanopoulos to replace David Brinkley as host of This Sunday.  It was during a This Sunday interview that Stephy corrected Barry Hussein Obama's potentially troublesome slip, "You're absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith."  Remember? Fast forward to the Obama White House, and this from AOL News. 

Biased: George Stephanopoulos Gives Daily Advice to Rahm

It was recently revealed that ABC News Chief Washington Correspondent George Stephanopoulos takes part in daily "profane" phone conversations with Democratic strategists James Carville and Paul Begala.

... Oh yeah, and the daily calls also include Obama Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel.

As Politico reports:

Of course, David Westin will fire Stephanopoulos anon.

The Swimmer's Legacy

Do you love irony, like I love irony?
Ted Kennedy, Dick Head
Ted the "Swimmer" (1932-2009) is diagnosed with incurable brain cancer. His physician, as mandated by law, refers his case to the Federal Coordinating Council for Comparative Effectiveness Research . It's pretty much an open and shut case. At age 77, cost effective health care for the 77 year old Kennedy is limited to an overdose of morphine, so the emergency operation that will allow his Senate staff to work him like a puppet for another year is denied. But wait, that's not the ironic part. This is.

Because Kennedy has the cash, he's able to extend his worthless life using black market medical care. Ain't that a pussy? This sonuvabitch, almost entirely responsible for socialized medicine in this country, is forced underground to avoid the penalty his own plan would impose upon him. Catch 22 (million in the bank).

I give you the National Coordinator of Health Information Technology section of the Obamacy's "Stimulus Package," as recommended by the Three Dickheads. Limbaugh explains it ...
... But the stimulus bill, the job-creation bill (so improperly named) creates a "new bureaucracy, the National Coordinator of Health Information Technology... Now, this new bureaucracy will monitor newly digitized medical records. There are rules-for-health care coverage in this bill, and they will affect every individual in the United States. You can consult if you want to go try to find a PDF copy of the bill you can find the references are on page 445, 454, and 479."

Your medical treatments will be tracked electronically by a federal system. Now, there are arguments back and forth about whether or not this is a good thing. The opportunity for the loss of privacy is huge here by digitizing and making everybody's health care records computerized, especially having a major federal database where everybody's health records are. Some people say this is a good thing because it will assist in treatment, particularly in emergencies. When you go in for an emergency, if they can get your records... Let's say you're out of town. Say you're vacationing in Alaska hunting moose and an accident happens up there, but you live in New Jersey. Doctors in Alaska will be able to consult the federal database to find out what your allergies are, what your treatments have been, what mistakes not to make on you.

That's what they used to sell this. Anyway, this bill computerizes everybody's health records. Then after everybody's health records are computerized, this new bureaucracy is created, the National Coordinator of Health Information Technology.

And he'll have a whole bureaucracy at his disposal that "will monitor treatments to make sure your doctor is doing what the federal government deems appropriate and cost effective." You know, right now a lot of you get all upset at your insurance company because they say, "Well, certain things will be covered and others won't," and you want it to be left up to the doctor. Try the government being in charge of what the doctor can do, the kind of treatments that can be extended to you -- and I'll tell you who gets creamed in this, is the elderly. The elderly get really shafted in this, and I'll explain why here in just a minute. Now, "The goal [of the National Coordinator of Health Information Technology] is to reduce costs and 'guide' your doctor's decisions (442, 446). These provisions in the stimulus bill are virtually identical to what Daschle prescribed in his 2008 book, 'Critical: What We Can Do About the Health-Care Crisis.' According to Daschle, doctors have to give up autonomy and 'learn to operate less like solo practitioners.'"

Doctors have to join the federal community here in dolling out treatment so that it's fair and equitable. "Keeping doctors informed of the newest medical findings is important, but enforcing uniformity," Betsy McCaughey writes, "goes too far. Hospitals and doctors that are not 'meaningful users' of the new system will face penalties. 'Meaningful user' isn't defined in the bill. That will be left to the HHS secretary, who will be empowered to impose 'more stringent measures of meaningful use over time' (511, 518, 540-541). What penalties will deter your doctor from going beyond the electronically delivered protocols when your condition is atypical or you need an experimental treatment? The vagueness is intentional. In his book, Daschle proposed an appointed body with vast powers to make the 'tough' decisions elected politicians won't make. The stimulus bill does that, and calls it the Federal Coordinating Council for Comparative Effectiveness Research (190-192). The goal, Daschle's book explained, is to slow the development and use of new medications and technologies because they are driving up costs. Rush Limbaugh, unedited
All socialized medical plans will eventually be forced to thin the herd as money runs out. It's our turn in the box.

In this clip we see the futility of debating True Believer Marxists.  Phil Donahue is a suitable stand-in for them.  He asks  Milton Friedman a question, and receives what I'll call an undeniable truth in reply.   We know by the passage of time - Donahue is still a hardcore Marxist dewberry - that he didn't listen, or is incapable of processing ideas that run counter to his strongly held socialist Phil-osophy.  In short, you can't debate the Liberal intellectual.  Throwing them down a sinkhole is all that works.   Thanks to CR for the link.

"Chicago Bob", calling into a radio talk show, explains the need to rush on the Stimulus package before anyone gets a good chance to review its sordid details. The transcript:

"I really feel that what I'm gonna give you here is a smoking gun.

I'm a conservative Democrat and I'm from Chicago... and I, I feel that I was betrayed.

I was in a meeting after Obama got elected and I was told by the Democratic officials in that meeting that we were gonna give billions of dollars that was gonna come down the pike, our way, and what we were to do with it was we were supposed to do with it...

We are gonna build an army of Democratic patronage jobs.... gonna completely freeze up the Republicans forever and ever...

It's a job-capturing system, the same one they have in Chicago... everyone's asking 'why isn't that money being released until 2011 and 2012?'

Because it needs to be released at a time that's close to the election, so that they don't go blow the money and spend it. So they're gonna hold some back and that's where... the real bucks will be spent, right up close to the election.

...It's not a stimulus package, it's not pork! It's a job patronage system... there's gonna be more [people] working for the Democrats in a patronage system than the United States Army... (Dugout Doug Ross)
I fear that seccession by several states, with no regard to contiguity, and the formation of a new NATO (North American Treaty Organization) to protecet isolated states from the godless CUSA, is in the cards.  Sigh. One way of another, I'll miss seeing it happen.

Pope to Harpies
Vado Fuccant Vestri

I despise any movement to criminalize words and thought, and so should you.  Euros are in that vanguard, but speech Nazi's are crawling all over the U.S. as well.   I am today addressing the the furor generated by Pope Benedict's rehabilitating - which means ending the excommunication of, which means denying the sacraments of the Church to, four Bishops who "denied the Holocaust."

 First of all, anyone who denies something so obviously true, and widely documented is, res ipsa loquitur, an idiot.  The Bishops deserved removal from any position of influence within the church, and were.   Second, the priests involved were excommunicated for questioning a Pope's authority to order them to STFU.  Third.  Anyone who would criminalize unpopular thought is a manifestation of Mr. Hitler's recent experiment. Fourth. It is my fervent hope that His Holiness addresses an encyclical to these harpies,  "Vado Fuccant Vestri." 

Kennedy Twits

Death Withdraws Icy Hand From Shoulder Of Caroline Kennedy
This Onion takedown is perfect


NEW YORK—Rather than bestowing a final, icy tap to Caroline Kennedy's unsuspecting clavicle, the ethereal entity known as Death suddenly receded into the darkness last Thursday, after Kennedy announced her decision to withdraw her bid to become a U.S. senator. The sole surviving child of slain president John F. Kennedy said she made the choice to drop out of the running after considering the declining health of her uncle, Massachusetts senator Ted Kennedy, who is suffering from an extremely rare and incurable brain cancer. "I am permanently and unequivocally removing my name from consideration for this post," Kennedy said as the shrill cry of a whip-poor-will sounded in the distance. "Right now, I just want to be with my few remaining family members." Sources said Kennedy plans to use the break from political life to devote more time to her personal interests, including flying lessons, ski-football, and late-night drives through Martha's Vineyard.
