"If at age 20 you are a conservative then you have no heart. If at age 30 you are a liberal then you have no brains."
Sir Winston Churchill
ADVOCATE FOR TERM LIMITS

Obama obviously knows very little about economics, specifically that "Society stagnates when independent productive achievers begin to be socially demonized and even punished for their accomplishments." This dilemma fogs Obama's reality. To him, accepting this truth is a "false choice", his answer to things he doesn't understand. And by the way... where is John Galt?

They will Never have to Pay for Healthcare again....

WRAL TV of Durham, N.C. has a story today that exemplifies how Democrats win votes in a most un-American way. In the words of one North Carolina resident and Democrat voter, Democrats are "like Christmas" because with Democrats in office no one has to pay any of their bills.

WRAL had a news story on local reactions to the signing of Obamacare and the report featured video of resident DeCarlo Flythe of Durham, N. C. who was "overjoyed" that Obamacare is here.

Here was Mr. Flythe's reaction to Obamacare:
"It's gonna be like Christmas, you know your first Christmas when you want that Barbie doll, so it's gonna be just like Christmas. I mean it's gonna be great, you know worries, you know the bills, we can go ahead and pay our co-pay and be all right."


Still Flythe thinks he'll not ever have to pay for his healthcare again because of Obamacare. He imagines that a "co-pay" is all he'll ever have to pay and all the rest is free. Obama gave him a "Christmas present," don't you know?

And this, folks, is how Democrats convince people to vote for them. They pretend to offer everything for free and all you have to do is vote for them. This, of course, is the most thoroughly un-American attitude that has been introduced into our American polity by Democrats starting with FDR (our second most socialist president after Obama).

This votes-for-freebies attitude destroys the American character of rugged individualism, freedom, and self-reliance. Further more it is unsustainable. After all, nothing is really free and the burden of the freebies that Democrats give away end up on the heads of people with jobs, the middle class and the business community.

Once again, Democrats prove to be entirely anti-American and a danger to our nation
According to the report, Flythe has a job but doesn't think he has to pay for his healthcare and he imagines that Obamacare will give it to him for the cost of a co-pay. Co-pays are doctor visit fees in many insurance policies that are typically less then $100 a visit. But co-pays are not all there is to paying for healthcare because the premiums paid to the policies are what is used to cover other aspects of the service to the patient.

The Dumbing Down of Medicine

Doctors don't have to participate in the Obamacare bill.... they can go "private" as they do in Britain, and only accept patients out of the system. This is currently happening with the Mayo Clinic in Phoenix, where the docs stopped accepting medicare altogether, leaving 3000 patients in the lurch, looking for other docs. A friend (pediatrician) in Virginia... says the hospitals will accept medicaid, but individual docs rarely will. No plastic surgeon will participate in this bill.... and so on. The smartest and brightest young people will stop going into medicine and instead go into public administration. Change you can Count on... the dumbing down of medicine.

We're getting Sick of Republicans always opposing Social Legislation, aren't we?

PBS's Jim Lehrer on Tuesday wrongly accused Republicans of always being against major social legislation in this country including the Civil Rights Act, Social Security, and Medicare.


JIM LEHRER, HOST: Senator, as you know -- much has been made of this -- that, through history, recent history in particular, Republicans have opposed things like Social Security, Medicare, even civil rights legislation, but then, once they lost, they took some deep breaths and moved on, and then finally ended up embracing many of these major changes in -- in laws and in the way we do business here.


Is that going to happen with health care reform?


SEN. JON KYL, (R-ARIZONA): Jim, could I argue a little with the premise of your question?

EHRER: All right. OK. Sure.


KYL: The civil rights legislation was pushed by Republicans, as you will recall. It was the Southern Democrats who filibustered it, who fought against it.

History of Conservatives and Liberals

For those that don't know about history ... Here is a condensed version:


Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic hunters/gatherers. They lived on deer in the mountains during the summer and would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the winter.


The two most important events in all of history were the invention of beer and the invention of the wheel. The wheel was invented to get man to the beer. These were the foundation of modern civilization and together were the catalyst for the splitting of humanity into two distinct subgroups:
1. Liberals, and
2. Conservatives.


Once beer was discovered, it required grain and that was the beginning of agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so while our early humans were sitting around waiting for them to be invented, they just stayed close to the brewery. That's how villages were formed.Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to B-B-Q at night while they were drinking beer. According to New York political analyst Larry Allison, this was the beginning of what is known as the Conservative movement.

More Progressive Perfidy from the City Voted the "Craziest in the US"

The black democrat alliance in Ohio has pulled off another perfidious end-run with the assistance of democrat governor Ted Strickland. The scenario started when two black female politicians from Cincinnati decided to seek the same state senate seat. One was leaving her city council job because of term limits and the other, the former vice-mayor of Cincinnati, was also seeking the democrat held seat in the 33rd district. The black democrat caucus didn't want to have a costly primary challenge so they "persuaded" the council woman to look elsewhere for a job.

The Top UN Climate Change Official Yvo De Boer Resigns, Leaving the UN Program in Disarray

The British rock group Queen should repackage their song "Another One Bites the Dust", as the theme song for the junk science brigands currently running for the hills. The British courts will soon indict and try these criminal 'scientists' as soon as parliament finishes their investigations. Only two weeks ago, Mr. de Boer was forced to admit that even the weak and not legally binding accord reached in Copenhagen, was beginning to unravel as continuing revelations unmask the way climate data was looted and altered by unscrupulous scientists for political and monetary gain.
No one denies that the earth has been warming; after all, the last Ice Age ended 10,000 years ago. Of course the earth's climate is continuing to change. The criminal scientists and their political lackeys, however, want us to believe that climate change equals MAN-MADE "global warming". Even the scientist at the top of this house of cards now admits that global warming ended in 1995, and the earth is now in a cooling phase. Remember the hole in the ozone layer that was supposed to enlarge and melt the north pole? As time has shown, the "hole" comes and goes and man has no control over it (it was claimed that hair spray caused the hole). The hydrocarbons in sprays were changed to, guess what, in many cases... yep, changed to CO2. Obviously, hair spray is causing climate change, or maybe it's WD-40, or dry ice. ... and about Al Gore: Listening to this idiot, could anyone trust the "science" feeding this man's cognitive disorder? He has totally lost it. Gore is now using "statistics" that he heard at a cocktail party in 2007 to justify his absurd 5-7 yr. end of the Arctic ice cap. And, oh yeah, remember when he invented the internet?

Ex-Senator Evan Bayh Looks Presidential for 2012

Senator Evan Bayh's "retirement" is the result of a dysfunctional, partisan Senate (so what's new?). Of course, that is not the real reason he is leaving. It is in his best interest to not be associated with the progressive democrat's corruption which promises to bring conservatives back into power in 2010. He also surmises (correctly) that Obama will not run for reelection in 2012 (the Jimmy Carter effect). When this occurs, the way will be clear for Hilary versus whomever in the democrat primary.
Bayh rightly senses that the country will be both anti-liberal and anti-conservative when Obama completes his term. His supporters believe that there will be no liberal of substance that could win the presidential election after the current progressive failure. The conservatives will be seen as the party of obstruction, so the republicans will not be able to produce a viable candidate. Therefore, as a young, successful moderate with deep roots in politics (his father, former senator Birch Bayh), it's only logical that he will be embraced by the angry voters waiting to dump on someone. Another point in his favor is that he doesn't come from the east or west or Texas; he's from main street midwestern Indiana. He represents those whose livelihoods have been taken away by unfair, corrupt trade policies over the last 20 years. Another thing that helps is his $13 million of unused campaign funds, which will be put to good use.

Bayh is a Bellwether for Midterm Elections

Evan Bayh's decision not to seek another term as Senator is the canary crying in the coal mine for liberal politics. He was 33 years old when elected Governor of Indiana in 1988 -- one of the youngest governors in history. And his pedigree was strong -- son of legendary Senator Birch Bayh, who virtually defined Indiana liberal democrats. Evan Bayh carved a different path than his father. He was praised for his fiscally conservative policies -- a beacon for the centrist democrats. Hence, his downfall.

European Socialism's New Tax Bombshell: 20% VAT (value added tax)

In Britain, a rise in the VAT is looming whichever party wins the general election, as Labour and the Conservatives draw up plans to balance Britain’s books. Alistair Darling and George Osborne, the Shadow Chancellor, are both considering raising VAT to as high as 20 per cent (the European average) from the current extortionist rate of 17.5 per cent. I can see no end in sight for this perfidy in our Anglo-Saxon soul mate.

The European Union Subjects have lost their Passion and this is where Obama wants us to be.

The LondonTimes Online (02/11/10) Posted my Tease about the EU leaders being on verge of a deal to bailout Greece and save the Euro. There were 54 recommendations and comments in the first 12 hours to my tease, which read:

"This may be the beginning of a swift end to the Elitist Union. Why has there not been any interest in a union consisting of Britain, Canada, US, Australia, South Africa and New Zealand. Seems like a better fit for the anglo-saxon base. As far as the EU, Germany wants to run everything, France wants to have it all their way, and the Brits would never be in it if they were allowed to vote."
A sampling of the comments follows:

President Obama's Dilemma

While he feels compelled to reach out to Republicans, his core left support is eroding:

 1. Labor unions over the failure to confirm labor lawyer Craig Becker and pass the “card check” bill for open union voting.
 "Labor groups are furious with the Democrats they helped put in office"
