The year is 1947.
Some of you will recall that on July 8, 1947, a little over 60 years ago, witnesses claim that an unidentified flying object (UFO)with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and mule ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico.
This is a well known incident that many say has long been covered up by the U.S. Air Force and other federal agencies and organizations.
However, what you may NOT know is that in the month of April 1948, nine months after that historic day, the following people were born:
Albert A. Gore, Jr.
Hillary Rodham
John F. Kerry
William J. Clinton
Howard Dean
Nancy Pelosi
Dianne Feinstein
Charles E. Schumer
Barbara Boxer (and be sure you call her 'Senator')
Now, see what happens when aliens breed with sheep and jackasses?
I certainly hope this bit of information clears up a lot of things for you. It did for me.
Just something to think about, America!

The Magical Medicare Pie-A Fairy Tale For Democrats
Once upon a time, there was a pie maker who made all kinds of pies. His name was Barobama and he made many unusual and delicious pies and people came from all over to get their piece of the pie. The pie maker promised everybody that they would get their fair share of pie as long as he was the pie maker. One day, he made a beautiful pie that he named "Healthcare Heaven." Barobama told everyone that this was one of his best pies ever and that everyone would love it. However, some old people complained that Barobama had taken a lot of the ingredients that were used in his "Medicare" pie, a favorite pie of the elderly folk. Because he wanted to use those ingredients, everyone knew that the next "Medicare" pie would have to be much smaller, because he did not have as much of the ingredients as he needed to keep that pie as big as before.
This made all the older people weep and wail and gnash their teeth. "What will we do?", they cried. "We will not be able to get as large a slice of Medicare pie as we would like to have. Woe is us!"
But Barobama heard them lamenting and he told the old people, "Don't cry. I am making the "Medicare" pie with a new magical ingredient. Because this pie will be a magic pie, it does not matter that it will be a smaller pie. There will still be plenty for everybody and the slices will be just as big as it always was. So be happy and rejoice!"
And the old people were happy again, knowing that Barobama was going to make the "Magic Medicare" pie for them. And they did sing and dance in the street and they lived happily, and healthily, ever after.
Yes, you may think this is a fairy tale that can't possibly be true. I mean, think about it for a minute...a magical pie that, no matter how many slices you take from it, will still have slices left. Sounds pretty far fetched to me. Although, as a Christian, I do seem to recall that Jesus took five loaves of bread and two fish and fed a multitude of people and had leftovers when they were done. Well, what the hell, if Jesus could do that then the Annointed One should be able to keep those slices coming without breaking a sweat, right??
GOD BLESS AND KEEP AMERICA.

FAIR--A Four Letter Word For Democrats
I recently wrote about how our dear departed, Senator Ted Kennedy, tried to re-write rules that HE set up with the Massachusetts legislature five years ago. The incredible hypocrisy of this attempt only continues to show how dirty politics have become, and especially so for the Democrats. Yes, FAIR does not seem to be a word that the Democrats want to use during the Obama administration.
Besides the Kennedy incident, Democratic party leaders have recently denounced what they characterized as "organized protests" against proposed healthcare reform legislation. They accused Republicans of busing in protestors and staging the upset at town hall meetings. However, in watching the news, the only busing I've seen is the buses full of pro-Obama supporters who were brought in, with their pre-made signs, to try to pack the town hall meetings full so that legitimate protest could be quelled.
Now, Attorney General Eric Holder has decided to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the CIA and allegations of torture, despite President Obama's public stand against such a move. However, public stand and private position can be different. Any good magician knows that the secret to good sleight of hand is to get your audience to look at your right hand while your left hand does the trick. President Obama is desperate to draw attention away from the health care protests at any cost and this could be one avenue to use.
Finally, in an article posted online today, the Democrats have begun to censor what information Republican members of Congress can send to their constituents. Please read the article below.
"FRANK" DEMOCRATS CENSOR GOP MAIL by Jim Brown - OneNewsNow - 8/25/2009 8:00:00 AM
An Arizona congressman says liberals on the "Franking Commission" have deliberately tried to censor mail that conservative Republican House members are attempting to send out to their constituents.
Democrats on the bipartisan Commission on Congressional Mailing Standards have been blocking Republicans from sending out franked mailings to constituents that refer to the cap-and-trade bill as "cap and tax," the stimulus bill as the "so-called stimulus," and the healthcare reform bill as "socialized medicine."
Representative Trent Franks (R-Arizona) says the Franking Commission even told him to stop using the phrase "Democratic majority" in his newsletters, and to use "majority" instead.
"For instance, I can say 'the Speaker,' but I can't say 'Speaker Pelosi' because that's too inflammatory. Well, you know, I understand their problem -- they don't want people to really identify the Democratic Party with Nancy Pelosi," he notes. "But the point is, we are forced to change our vernacular and how we say things in order to comport with their attitudes and their way of believing [how] we should say it."
Another Republican member of the House, John Carter of Texas, told Human Events last month the Franking Commission informed him he could not say: "House Democrats unveiled a government-run healthcare plan" -- but instead must use: "The House majority unveiled a public option healthcare plan." That, stated Carter, is "Pelosi-speak."
According to Franks, an honest and open debate would put Democrats' agenda "in dire straits."
"Ironically, we found franked mail sent from Nancy Pelosi that has exactly the same phrases in it, only from the Democrat side when she was in the minority -- exactly the same that she never was censored for," he adds. "But now that they're in the majority, they're censoring the Republican mail."
Franks says for the first time in decades, Republicans have not been able to offer amendments to some of the most critical bills being considered. He points out that Democrats are even trying to create a rule on appropriations bills that would prevent Republicans from offering their amendments.
YES, I THINK IT IS "FAIR" TO SAY THAT WHEN IT COMES TO ANY KIND OF FAIRNESS, THE DEMOCRATS IN POWER THINK THAT THEY WOULD "FARE" BETTER WITHOUT IT!!
R.I.P., TED KENNEDY--YOUR SENSE OF FAIRNESS WILL LIVE ON WITH YOUR COLLEAGUES.

Hey, Ted, How About Some Fairness?!?!
In what I see as just the latest in a long line of hypocrisy and outright dishonesty, Senator Edward M. (Teddy) Kennedy showed his utter disdain for any sense of honor and honesty in his political dealings.
Within the last several days, Senator Kennedy, who is dying of terminal brain cancer, has attempted to encourage the state legislature of Massachusetts to rescind a four year old law that calls for a special election to replace a Senator who vacates his/her seat prior to the end of his/her term of office. In most states, in such a case, the governor would appoint a replacement to fill out the remainder of the term until the next election. However, in Massachusetts, they chose to take away that power from the governor and put it in the hands of the electorate, who would vote in a special election.
OK, so far, that doesn't sound too bad. Well, at least not until you look into the history of this law. In 2004, Senator John Kerry, the Democratic junior senator from Massachusetts was running for president against George W. Bush. At that time, had Senator Kerry won, then the Republican governor of Massachusetts, Mitt Romney, would have been called upon to name a successor to fill out the remainder of Sen. Kerry's term. Most likely, this would have meant appointing a Republican as the second senator from Massachusetts.
Senator Kennedy felt that this was not the way to handle the situation so he approached the state legislature and was the impetus behind the law to take the appointment power away from the governor of Massachusetts and instead have a special election. That was 2004.
Now, five years later, Massachusetts has a Democratic governor who would appoint a Democrat to fill Ted Kennedy's seat if he has to step down or dies before his term expires. With that in mind, Senator Kennedy now believes it would be better to change the law back to the governor appointing a replacement, since that appointment would undoubtedly meet with Senator Kennedy's approval.
WHAT A CROCK OF SHIT!! COME ON, TED, I KNOW YOU HAVE BRAIN CANCER, BUT DID IT WIPE OUT ANY SENSE OF FAIRNESS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE HAD AT ONE TIME?? YOU DON'T CHANGE THE RULES OF THE GAME AS YOU GO ALONG. ANY CHILD OF 5 OR 6 KNOWS THAT CHANGING THE RULES TO SUIT YOUR OWN PERSONAL NEEDS OR AGENDA IS CHEATING, NOTHING MORE.
IT IS A DAMN SHAME THAT, EVEN NOW AT THE END OF YOUR LIFE, YOU HAVE ALLOWED YOUR LUST FOR PARTY POWER TO OVERCOME ANY SENSE OF FAIRPLAY IN THE GAME OF POLITICS. THIS EPISODE, JUST LIKE CHAPPAQUIDDICK, IS A STAIN ON YOUR PERSONAL CHARACTER, SENATOR KENNEDY AND IT IS TOO BAD THAT YOUR CAREER IN THE SENATE WILL END ON THIS SOUR NOTE!!
SHAME ON YOU!!

A Word For PETA
Hey, for a change of pace, I thought I would direct my thoughts toward PETA, the People for Ethical Treatment of Animals.
I was watching The O'Reilly Factor last night and they had a segment on about PETA protesting the McDonald's Happy Meal for little kids. They had a group in front of a McDonalds restaurant handing out FREE UNhappy meals. They pictured Ronald McDonald wielding a large butcher knife, like something out of PSYCHO. They used packets of ketchup to imitate blood on the boxes. It was all pretty sick and disgusting.
Now, I admit that I do not personally subscribe to PETA's ideas. However, I do not begrudge them the right to espouse their message, no matter how foolish I believe it to be. That being said, I, much Like Bill O'Reilly, feel that the WAY they present their message is more damaging to PETA and its ideas than anything else. Their UNhappy Meals simply came across, to me at least, as a weird and twisted way to make a point at the expense of upsetting small children. Alienating children and angering their parents is probably not the best way to win support for your cause. Just something to think about.

It's Still A Pig!
I have been watching the debate over the proposed ObamaCare health plan for over a month now. I have listened carefully to explanations from the President concerning this plan, and estimates from all sides as to how much the plan will cost the taxpayers. I have read and re-read the polls and watched the steadily declining numbers of voters who are in favor of this legislation and the Obama administration in general. I have seen the televised town hall meetings, both the ones that have gotten loud and angry and the ones that have been more civil and less turbulent in their tone.
Mr. President, I believe that the whole situation boils down to one statement that you made during your campaign for president.
You said, "YOU CAN PUT LIPSTICK ON A PIG AND IT WILL STILL BE A PIG!"
I believe that this one statement sums up the totality of the proposed healthcare plan in a very succinct and straightforward manner. President Obama and the liberal left leaders of Congress have ramrodded several expensive bills down the throat of the American public during the 6 1/2 months of his presidency. Most have been done in such a way so that the public really did not have time to review the legislation. Hell, most of the members of Congress did not have time to read some of these bills before a vote was called for. However, in this case, with THIS legislation, the members of Congress and the people that they represent have had some time to read and study the proposed legislation. And with that knowledge, I think that, no matter how much you try to shine up this apple, it is still rotten to the core, and everyone knows it.
Cut your losses, Mr. President and put THIS pig back in the poke!!

What Was That, Mr. President?
I was watching President Barack Obama during a televised town hall meeting from New Hampshire. He was discussing the various aspects of the proposed ObamaCare health care reform plan. One item he brought up was the question of whether private industry would be driven out of business by having to compete with a program run, and backed by, the federal government. He used, as a comparative example, the United States Postal Service (USPS) balanced against the United Parcel Service (UPS) and Federal Express (FedEx). In this comparison, President Obama pointed out that, while UPS and FedEx are doing well, the USPS is billions of dollars in debt. He was, I believe, trying to show that the private companies, FedEx and UPS, were doing fine in competition against the federal government, as represented by USPS.
However, what other point has been made here? Inadvertently, I believe that President Obama also proved that private industry is much more efficient than similar government-run endeavors. Think about the implications of that point in today's atmosphere. While I agree that some problems exist in the current health care system of this country, do you really think that the overall efficiency and cost of healthcare will go down once the government takes it over?!?! If you do, I have a bridge in Brooklyn that I can sell you for a great price!!
I cannot honestly think of one industry where the government runs more efficiently than private enterprise. When the feds took over airline security in 2001, it did not get more effective or more efficient. It got longer lines at security checkpoints and it got more expensive by giving the security people federal jobs with federal benefits, but the security did not actually get any better. A recent security audit showed that the vast majority of the sites tested failed to prevent weapons and contraband from getting through the airport.
The purpose to our government should be defense of our nation and protection of our citizens, to allow for an atmosphere where private enterprise can work in a relatively safe environment without fear. The government should focus on that task alone, and allow industry to flourish and the economy to grow. That system has worked in the past and allowed the United States of America to become the wealthiest and most powerful nation in the history of the world. THAT SYSTEM WORKED IN THE PAST AND IT CAN WORK AGAIN, IF THE POLITICIANS WILL ONLY GET OUT OF THE WAY AND QUIT TRYING TO MANAGE EVERYTHING!!
LET'S GIVE IT A TRY AND GOD BLESS AMERICA!!
