The 400 million dollar computerized Obamacare sign-up disaster is reprehensible enough, but popping up
like willow trees of discontent all over the country are honest, hard-working
folks whose health insurance is either being canceled or their rates and
co-pays are shooting sky-high. But not
to worry -- 16,000 freshly jackbooted IRS agents will be ready to
"assist" Americans in complying with everything that logic, fairness
and the Constitution warn should be avoided like pipe bombs. All of this, even as both Great Britain and
now Canada report serious problems with the "single payer"
(government) concept -- which is where
we're eventually headed by design. And
because Obama is superb at, and apparently intent upon dragging Third World or Any
World ideology in to fundamentally
transform America, we may look forward to similar nausea.
Meanwhile,
ABC-TV's Diane Sawyer and the rest of the worthless network TV junk-journalism
crowd spent Friday evening figuratively shaking their heads in disbelief over
the "glitch" affecting sign-up for the Affordable Care Act. It seems they could barely contain themselves
as they remained awe-stricken, perhaps because they couldn't blame this one on
the Tea Party.
Particularly
because of the major media and members of the celebrity community who
take every opportunity to blame the Republicans for everything, consistently
giving their buddies the Democrats a pass, the polls have taken a dip for the
GOP -- not that the president or Congress in general are doing that well. One hopes the public remembers that President
Obama refused to negotiate in any way with the House as the days dragged on --
even though it was his obligation to do so.
He and his are likely too busy formulating and writing regulations
behind closed doors to handcuff the American spirit.
But who's
getting the lion's share of blame, per media efforts? Ted Cruz and Mike Lee, of course -- and they
just happen to be probably two of the most decent and honest members of
Congress. They were elected to defeat
Obamacare and, say what you will, they did, with fervor, the utmost to satisfy
what their constituents elected them to do.
In fact, so dedicated and proper are these and a few other Tea Party
gentlemen that their own vile Republican associates condemn them.
The president's
speech following a temporary agreement on the debt ceiling revealed the same
old spiteful, arrogant image he carries everywhere, with or without
teleprompter infusion. Aside from his
childish comments intended to chide, but not actually name, the Tea Party (his
party calls them "extremists" -- hah, they should talk) and blaming
Republicans for not somehow corralling them to keep them out of the way, I was
particularly amused by his comments berating radio talk shows and bloggers --
hey, that's me!
Now, in today's
world of, primarily, leftists who don't give a damn about the military, may I
suggest that, as a blogger who also happens to be a military veteran, my right
to blog and opine about Obama's
incompetence or deceit (I waver over which is which and which is when) is worth
its weight in gold against a former community organizer who got lucky in the
world of politics with a little help from his leftist friends? Oh yes, I say this even as various Dems very
much wish to legislate something defining Just Who Is A Journalist And If Not
Who Do You Think You Are? All of this
because the "blue dog" Democrats are nearly extinct and the radicals
have commandeered the flight. History
indicates that, in the end, there are always prisons waiting to confine thugs
like these.
By the way: Tea Party folks DO have brains. Yes, a Yale University professor had to
nearly swallow his tongue when his research flew in the face of expectations
and he discovered that Tea Party members seem to have an excellent
understanding of scientific principles.
I assume this study also supports a theory that the only science the
Democratic National Committee's public relations people understand is that sh**
floats in campaign handouts.
Beware the
immigration demons. Watch for progressive political thugs on both
sides of the aisle to rush to "reform" perfectly good but unenforced
immigration legislation. Radio talk show
host (you know, one of the variety Mr. Obama seems not to appreciate) Michael
Savage, broadcasting from the San Francisco area last week, recounted
a scene (see news reports) where illegal folks were blocking a deportation bus filled with border-jumpers
from returning criminal aliens to Mexico -- and nobody was arrested
by the police.
Again I ask --
why aren't Governor Brown and other alleged public servants who took a constitutional oath
to protect THIS country arrested, tried and imprisoned? Sanctuary cities are ideal locations for new
prisons on all levels for activities either bordering on or encompassing treason.
Speaking of San
Francisco, oh yeah, I'll bet there were people chomping at the
bit to see the rescue worker who accidentally ran over and killed a Chinese
girl (covered with foam and invisible to rescuers) at a plane crash site
convicted, fined and jailed for decades.
Fortunately, authorities found no lawbreaker here, and it was absurd
that this case even received a review.
And then there's
the Los Angeles Times, and, hmm, that's in California, too. In a stroke of pure genius, their editors
decided not to publish any more letters from deniers of global warming. Wow, how open minds have changed! This might be reason No. 274 why newspapers
are failing all over the country. This
is one frightening development for anything left of journalism and open public
opinion -- making, logically, those
bloggers and radio talk shows (those of a conservative bent only, I'm sure)
condemned by President Obama all the more important for daily attention by
those who wish to stay truly informed.
I should add
that I have no interest in the political beliefs of those whose Web sites I
list
in the Links sections. I host those
links because they might be of interest to my readers. The UFO-related sites are reliable, and
beyond that I urge readers of any political persuasion to check The Drudge
Report frequently. Matt Drudge's
ever-evolving news links might just change the political leopard's spots for
those who give him a chance.
