The Coming Boner Cave

“

YALTA In Our Time On Monday afternoon, about eight hours before the government shutdown began, House Speaker John Boehner was asked whether he would consider passing a "clean" continuing resolution -- that is, a measure to fund the government without attachments that defund, delay, or limit Obamacare. "Is the clean CR off the table?" asked a reporter. "Is that not going to happen?" "That's not going to happen," said Boehner. Fast forward to 1:15 a.m. Tuesday - Boehner and House GOP leaders walked to the microphones and held a news conference that lasted all of 73 seconds. After Boehner's opening statement, a reporter asked, "Will you permit a vote on a clean CR?" Boehner's response, in its entirety: "We are hoping that the Senate will take our offer to go to conference and let us resolve our differences." Boehner said nothing about "not going to happen" or "don't see that happening." Instead, he sidestepped the "clean" resolution question entirely. [Full] And this moves inexorably forward to its natural, predictable, and even scripted? outcome. Settled behind closed doors in a conference of Senate Democrats and copacetic House GOP.  Obamacare will officially be welded into our law book; never, ever, to be removed. Ever. This is the signature moment that sends us down the road to serfdom.  You know what?  I'm at the ideal age.  Old enough that age will outstrip medicine's ability to prolong it anyway, but still spry enough to heft an M-1 if things perk-up in the next few years.

The GOLD choice

“ "For plan year 2014, Members of Congress and designated congressional staff will choose from 112 options in the Gold Metal tier on the DC SHOP," CAO said in a fact sheet that was emailed to Congress. Rep. Andy Harris (R-Md.) called attention to this requirement in a House floor speech Thursday, in which he said the policy shows more favoritism toward members of Congress and their staff. "We all … have to go and get the gold policy. Not the bronze, not the silver, the gold policy from the exchange. That's the only one we can get (and be subsidized)" he said. "You see, bronze and silver's only good enough for everyone else in the country. For members of Congress and members of the Senate and their staff, it's gold or nothing." Harris said allowing members to be subsidized for only buying gold-level coverage is probably why many members don't want to eliminate the subsidy for Congress, something Republicans have been pushing. "That's why this fight has been for a clean CR. No one wants to remove that exemption," he said.

Today's Health PSA How to Live Longer A little steam engine had a long train of cars to pull. She went along very well till she came to a steep hill. But then, no matter how hard she tried, she could not move the long train of cars. She pulled and she pulled. She puffed and she puffed. She backed and started off again. Choo! Choo! But no! the cars would not go up the hill. At last she left the train and started up the track alone. Do you think she had stopped working? No, indeed! She was going for help. "Surely I can find someone to help me," she thought. Over the hill and up the track went the little steam engine. Choo, choo! Choo, choo! Choo, choo! Choo! Pretty soon she saw a big steam engine standing on a side track. He looked very big and strong. ,,, (continued) You're welcome

Lake Eerie

Maybe if it was a dog ... A guy and his girlfriend took a picture of his cat because it kept hissing at the patio doors one night for no reason - He put the photo onto his PC and noticed the image of a small girl in the window! - They don’t have any children, and the house is very old - Here's a veritable Lake Eerie of similar "phenomena."  Do I believe this is real?  No.  Do I disbelieve it?  No. I'm neutral about any single example of the genre, but as a collection they do comport with my growing fascination with string theory and alternative universes.  Also, we had a neighbor lady who tape recorded ghostly voices.  I listened to them, and a local TV News program sent a crew and they were drop dead amazed.  So, yeah.  And there's this mind blower that nobody has been able to explain..

Stuff Well ain't this a pussy? Obamacare Fines to be Seized From Bank Accounts? Brilliant move by Obama, actually, if,  as I suspect, his promise to" remake America"  includes the destruction of personal wealth>  And since he has created an entitlement economy, he'll need your money .  All of it.   I imagine I'm not the only person reading the tea leaves, and preparing to convert savings accounts into other "negotiable"  instruments.  I mean, wtf?  What are banks paying me in interest right now?  Practically zip.  But, if other people start thinking like me  and taking cash out of circulation, then BANG!  Business will suffocate for lack of capital,  and we know what the Obamas do with business in trouble don't we.  They seize them.  The old road to serfdom.  If I was really really smart, I'd do what cuzzin ricky did and move the hell to South America, living cheap, but well. I would in a heartbeat, but not without MoSup and my grandkids.  And if I'm honest, and didn't have family ties, I wouldn't leave anyway.  I'd be storing a cache of stuff in a some hill country I know and getting ready for Red Dawn II. Just kidding. You know I'm right.

FULL STRAIGHT JACKET

LIARS and Other Democrats                   "If you're trying to change minds and influence people it's probably not a good idea to say that virtually all elected Democrats are liars, but what the hell.  TRKOF&S “ Is This Man Insane? I don’t believe America has ever seen such a thing. The leader of the free world just followed Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s honest, visionary, and serious U.N. speech with a speech of his own in the Rose Garden. More like it, President Obama just recorded essentially an infomercial on the disastrous Obamacare rollout. In a speech full of unserious claims and low-level false accusations against those who disagree with his liberal, unworkable policies, this president engaged in doublespeak without even blinking. It was unreal. What a difference in leadership style and substance we witnessed today on U.S. soil. The two speeches said it all. A Warrior unifying his nation and their allies, and a Community Organizer un-organizing and dividing his own. Obama just proclaimed all our predictions about Obamacare were wrong. The economy is doing great, he claimed, though he dare not direct that to the millions of people who are being kicked to part-time employment, to bankrupt cities, to shuttered Main Street businesses, and to conscientious taxpayers suffocating under a $17 trillion debt. Obama just claimed for the umpteenth time there will be no health care rationing (aka “death panels”), but apparently Howard Dean, Paul Krugman, and Obama’s own former director of Medicare and Medicaid (and anyone who read the IPAB section of the monstrous bill) didn’t get the memo on that one. Obama just claimed that the last government “shutdown” in 1996 hurt the economy, when in fact he knows the stock market boomed. I guess he thinks he can furlough reality too. He’s also claiming that he cut deficits in half. In what alternate universe? And if that’s the case, then why does he insist on yet another enormous debt ceiling increase? The White House is now condescendingly comparing Obamacare’s numerous “glitches” to Apple software updates. The difference is we can CHOOSE to buy Apple products; no one forces us. Obviously the comparison is ridiculously unserious as we find out the harsh, life-changing punishments this new arm of the IRS will hit us with if we don’t buy Obama’s forced product. Among so many other distorted things, Obama just declared that “Obamacare is open for business” – well, aside from all the “glitches” I guess. His infomercial sent people to broken websites and a hotline that seems permanently on hold. And this same bureaucracy will now be in charge of our health care, which is 1/6th of our economy. Nah, surely nothing could go wrong with that. [More -Sarah Palin] Skoonj Point and Match ”

Telepathic Rape’

Must Eat Brains              “ man in ‘telepathic rape’ case pleads guilty On Tuesday, Utah woman Meloney Sellneit pleaded guilty to illegal gun charges because she convinced her husband to shoot their neighbor because she was the victim of “telepathic rape.” That’s right folks, Meloney got a man shot because she didn’t like that he was :eye-fucking" her. Authorities accused Meloney of illegally purchasing a gun for Michael Selleneit, a violent felon, and inciting him to shoot Tony Pierce twice in the back while Pierce was working in his yard, according to the Salt Lake City Tribune. Michael, 53, later told police Pierce, 41, had been telepathically raping his wife for years and was using crack cocaine to control her mind. Which is why, when wooing a woman telepathically, it pays to teleport flowers and some nice chocolate—and maybe a few roofies—before the telepathic date begins.  Ray Romano explains things. ”

Hollywood Law Makers

Nanny State - one regulation away from total bliss                                         “ Halle Berry’s Law Is Social Media Monitoring Coming to a School Near You? ... Police will conduct sting operations to enforce a new California law--championed by actress and humanitarian Halle Berry and Jennifer Garner--that cracks down on paparazzi who photograph the children of celebrities.  The main justification is--what else?--keeping kids safe, and administrators are keeping their eyes peeled for all kinds of possible red flags, including drug use, profanity, bullying, hate speech, sexual harassment, and the use of fake IDs. California’s Glendale Unified School district is monitoring 14,000 students, and the company hired to conduct the snooping expects to be keeping tabs on students in 3,000 schools worldwide by the end of the year. In short, the law will (almost certainly) eventually mimic Britain's law that makes it a crime to photograph and child without parents permission (think soccer matches. etc).  I could just as well have use the Police State banner for this post. ”

SNL

“

Did SNL really mock Obamacare? So, a lot of folks are talking about last night’s season premiere of Saturday Night Live and its skit on Obama’s sell of Obamacare.  Many are commenting that it mocks Obamacare.  I’m not sure I really saw it entirely the same way. Check it out for yourself: ( Legal Insurrection) To set the scene for those of you who don’t feel like watching the video, several “regular Americans” are invited to approach the podium as Obama speaks to an audience to try and sell the Affordable Care Act. The first is a woman who gleefully says she is psyched for Obamacare because now she can get sick as much as she wants.  Another is a father who laments that Obama has made sure that his slacker adult son, who has pinched a nerve in a porn-viewing “accident,” will never have to lift a finger to get health insurance, thanks to Obama.  He rushes off exclaiming, “Chris Christie in ’16!” The skit then makes a quick slam on Ted Cruz’s quasi-filibuster, citing Dr. Seuss lines and demanding a government shutdown.  Parody Cruz is escorted off the stage by security as he yells, “Horton may hear a who, but the only thing I’m hearing right now is Socialism!!!” An iPhone customer jumps to the podium to decry that her new phone broke and hasn’t been fixed.  Parody Obama says, “I believe you’re confusing Obamacare with AppleCare,” to which she responds, “either way, happened on your watch.” An ER doctor then complains that if people in this country would just “stop putting stuff up their butts,” we’d save  ....  [Full-Legal Insurrection] I think the people asking the lead question are the very dullards who rely on The Daily Show and SNL for political guidence.

James J. Martin

“ Revisionist History Has a Place- Sometimes But not here By the by, recent correspondence with Skoonj led from a Diana West thing to Pearl Harbor: Antecedents, Background and Consequences by James J. Martin. I then chipped in with  Day of Deceit: The Truth About FDR and Pearl Harbor. But that's not what this is about.  James J. Martin is known as a "history revisionist;" not always a pejorative.  It means, here, that when he found the facts to be otherwise than the story, he went after it.  Were he alive today, he'd be going nuts trying to square things.* One problem I do have with Martin is that later in life he became a Holocaust "denier."  Not really claiming that death camps didn't exist, but "I don't believe that the evidence of a planned extermination of the entire Jewish population of Europe is holding up."  Cynical as I've become about some aspects of the subject— e.g., If Gypsies controlled America's media,  we would have a Gypsy Holocaust Museum,  and endless documentaries on the Hiller channels about them being hunted down and murdered. So, it becomes a matter of scale in that respect; but I simply cannot get my head around any argument that claims the "Jewish Holocaust" did not occur as a matter of policy.  Plan "A." or not. I'll call it a mid-life brain-fart, and let it go.  * James J. Martin died in 2004.  Many think over the media adulation being  poured  upon a nondescript Kenyan-born dope dealer,  and race-hustler from Chicago,  who was running for the US Senate!  He accepted that he could no longer keep up with media manipulation of the truth, and lost his will to live.  ”

Sex Jihad

The ‘Sex Jihad’ “ News emerged a few weeks ago in Arabic media that yet another fatwa had called on practicing Muslim women to travel to Syria and offer their sexual services to the jihadis fighting to overthrow the secularist Assad government and install Islamic law. Reports attribute the fatwa to Saudi sheikh Muhammad al-’Arifi, who, along with other Muslim clerics earlier permitted jihadis to rape Syrian women. Muslim women prostituting themselves in this case is being considered a legitimate jihad because such women are making sacrifices—their chastity, their dignity—in order to help apparently sexually-frustrated jihadis better focus on the war to empower Islam in Syria. And it is prostitution—for they are promised payment, albeit in the afterlife. The Koran declares that “Allah has purchased of the believers their persons [their bodies] and their goods; for theirs (in return) is the garden (of Paradise): they fight in His cause, and slay and are slain (Yusuf Ali trans. 9:111). On the basis of this fatwa, several young Tunisian Muslim girls traveled to Syria to be “sex-jihadis.” Video interviews of distraught parents bemoaning their daughters’ fates are on the Internet, including one of a father and mother holding a picture of their daughter: “She’s only 16—she’s only 16! They brainwashed her!” pleads the father. [Full] Res Ipsa Loquitur ”
