As one Ohio blog stated, "Memo to Republicans – you’re not as good at scaring seniors as we are"
Now the memo has gone out for bloggers to write (hopefully not their normal faux story) about women and just how rotten they are treated by the health care industry. Look for minorities and children next. Sad and heart wrenching stories, all.
During the Reagan administration the different press offices for the Democrat Party around the nation would weep, wring their hands, write all of the horrible things that would happen if the latest Reagan proposal became law, pull their hair and then go out for drinks.
It became a joke. So much a joke that one wag sent around a satiric Washington Post front page.
WORLD TO END! WOMEN, MINORITIES AND CHILDREN HIT HARDEST!!
It's no different now except much fewer people watch, listen or read the mainstream media, so liberal bloggers and education facilities are stepping into the breach in hopes of blocking the will of the people through made-up pathos and lies.
It's still a joke though.

Irving Penn Dead
Penn would approve such a simple and direct headline. He was an artist that desired simplicity and a direct treatment of his subjects.
Irving Penn was one of the greatest photographers who has ever lived.
His work speaks for itself.

Global Warming Is Frosting My World
It's October 8 and already we've had frost. Granted, I am sitting here in a sweatshirt because I don't want to really heat a 120+ year old house, but also I am sick of paying extra for everything I want or need because of the huge set of hidden taxes on those products caused by government over-regulation, taxation and stupid laws that threatens retaliation for things such as toilet paper holders being at the wrong height in businesses everywhere.
I also do not believe in global warming nor the hucksters trying to profit from the theory even if only the need to feel part of something bigger than they.
Scientist: Carbon Dioxide Doesn't Cause Global Warming
A noted geologist who coauthored the New York Times bestseller Sugar Busters has turned his attention to convincing Congress that carbon dioxide emissions are good for Earth and don't cause global warming. Leighton Steward is on Capitol Hill this week armed with studies and his book Fire, Ice and Paradise in a bid to show senators working on the energy bill that the carbon dioxide cap-and-trade scheme could actually hurt the environment by reducing CO2 levels.
The need to address crisis everywhere seems to me to be the bigger problem. It denotes a lacking that could and should be filled by family, philosophy, religion and ethics. That people have decided to pin their existence on manufactured crisis after manufactured crisis and their perpetrators is the real crisis.

Illegal Lawlessness On Laws On Alien Illegals
Laws are in place for a reason and if, say, I don't pay my taxes, I will be prosecuted. Right? Not if one occupies the mighty ethers of the Obama administration. They strip prosecutors of their powers if they, you know, actually use their powers under the law. They order other departments to look the other way if certain senators get special mortgage treatment or congressmen and administration officials cheat on their taxes as long as those suspected, but invaluable to America's future, can cook an excuse at least as well as they cooked their books.
Illegal aliens must also be invaluable to America's future, well, at least to the Democrats future. That must be why the Democrats cry that it is the law that the illegals must get health care, other government benefits and the right to vote. Of course, the Democrats start crying when they need to divert attention from other malfeasance and misfeasance.
Feds limit Ariz. sheriff's crackdown on illegal immigrants
Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio says he will continue his controversial "crime suppression operations" despite a Department of Homeland Security decision to strip him of authority to arrest suspected illegal immigrants based solely on their immigration status, the East Valley Tribune reports.
“It’s all politics,” says Arpaio, sheriff of Maricopa County.
I agree with the commenter that said Sheriff Arpaio should be put in charge of immigration. Only problem is, besides Democrats being in charge, that not one damned person in Washington, DC has the first idea of how to enforce the law.
Well, maybe it's the ethics to enforce the law, but I really don't have time this millennium to discuss government and ethics.

The Face Of Public Option Behind The Mask Of Reason
In what has become usual, President Obama speaks one way to the public while secretly doing the opposite in the Oval Office. Call it the Rahm Effect. Back room dealing, threats and political bribery, all to get what you want even though others strongly disagree, because the public mask will bring you victory as the distorted face of lies remains hidden from view.
Health care reform: Privately, Barack Obama strongly backs public option
Despite months of seeming ambivalence about creating a government health insurance plan, the Obama White House has launched an intensifying behind-the-scenes campaign to get divided Senate Democrats to take up some version of the idea in the weeks just ahead.
President Barack Obama has long advocated a so-called public option, while at the same time repeatedly expressing openness to other ways to offer consumers a potentially more affordable alternative to health plans sold by private insurers.
But now, senior administration officials are holding private meetings almost daily at the Capitol with senior Democratic staff to discuss ways to include a version of the public plan in the health care bill that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., plans to bring to the Senate floor later this month, according to senior Democratic congressional aides.
A public option is political suicide, if pundits are to be believed, so why are Democrats pursuing it? What is the plan after the goal of a public option is achieved? Is there one? Socialized medicine? How will the American public react to this? The 2010 and the 2012 elections could be a disaster for the Democrats if voters view it this way, so why are the Democrats doing this and what is their plan already formed by Obama, his staff, advisers and Party leaders?
If a public option is put in place it will eventually destroy the private insurance industry because private industry cannot compete with government. At present there are over 2.2 million people working in insurance and there are X millions of people that work in ancillary and support positions around the nation. Where will they be employed and who will employ them and, more important, who will support them? If millions of workers are put out of work, albeit with health insurance, how will that affect other industries such as the auto industry faced with millions of fewer potential buyers, the entertainment industry, the computer industry, airlines, transportation and on and on down to maids, lawn services that have millions of fewer customers.
The public option is a wild fire that would spread throughout the economy leaving destruction in its nebulous path panicking markets, the nation and, eventually, global markets and nations.
I think it is time for Obama and his ilk to come clean about their plans for their American future.

Eckels Lake
I learned to swim there. Became a life guard. I mostly lived at Eckels Lake whenever I could. .
The lake was actually an old stone quarry that the Eckels' turned into a gymnasium over water. There was a 12' long barrel to try and run on, traveling rings (seen here), spinning disks that two to six people could rock and cause to spin at a very fast rate, big and even bigger water slides, flying rings that took one way up and over the water (and land on the back swing) and a 3', 6', 10' and 20' diving boards and more.
.
For the life guard test I had to tie my street clothes into a bundle, throw it out into the lake and when it had sunk completely, I had to dive in and "save" it. The water was a coppery green and bitterly cold at the bottom.
.
Mr and Mrs Eckels were like parents who took a real interest in their enlarged "family" which they made me part of. Mrs Eckels suffered from a malady and constantly needed to keep weight on, so each day, when there, I would ride my bike to the Dairy Queen (quite a hike) for a milk shake with an egg mixed in for her to drink. She always had a big smile and a 'thank you', especially when I got back to her with a still cold milkshake.
.
As an only son, when my father took me to Mr Eckels as a young child and asked if he could teach me to swim, Mr Eckels said yes and promptly threw me in the water as my father watched in horror. Mr Eckels told him if I didn't start flapping my arms by the third time I went under that he'd jump in and get me. I started flapping like a bird on the second time and have been swimming ever since.
.
As life guards, it was common to have to watch over a couple of hundred swimmers every weekend while nursing a Grape Nehi, trying to not get caught ogling the bikini contents and getting very tan.
.
The Eckels have passed and lawyers and insurance costs doomed their water gymnasium over water. To the detriment of all.

Ahmadinejad: Death To Jews And ME!
The world just keeps getting weirder. Maybe next we'll find out Obama is Rhodesian, but whatever, Rahm now has a handle to address the Iranian talks. They can compare shawls.
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad revealed to have Jewish past
A photograph of the Iranian president holding up his identity card during elections in March 2008 clearly shows his family has Jewish roots.
A close-up of the document reveals he was previously known as Sabourjian – a Jewish name meaning cloth weaver.
The short note scrawled on the card suggests his family changed its name to Ahmadinejad when they converted to embrace Islam after his birth.
Of course, there have always been rumors of different leaders and their hates.

Ayers More Than 'Just Some Guy' As Ghostwriter Of "Dreams"
via Protein Wisdom who, as usual, has a great read. So go. Read.
It seems that Obama's, to quote America's favorite pastor, "chickens are coming home to roost."
Andersen Claims'Two Sources' for Ayers' Role in Dreams
This is the same Obama who said he was unaware that ACORN was receiving large amounts of money from the government.
ACORN who?
Obama is not who he says he is nor is he what his handlers and spinners say he is because Obama probably doesn't remember, if he ever did, who he is.
Obama isn't aware of ACORN let alone its darker and even darker side. Obama wasn't aware of who Rev. Wright really was even as Wright married Barack & Michelle, baptized their two kids, preached and counseled them each week and gave Obama political and campaigning advice. Ayers was "just a guy in the neighborhood", not a murdering terrorist who advised, helped finance and worked with Obama.
It is no wonder that Obama doesn't know much about America. Maybe, just for fun, a reporter should ask, "Quick, Mr. President,what's your wife's name?" or "Quick, Mr President, what're books about?"
Nah, don't confuse him more.

Michelle Sacrifices For The Kids, Not FOO Fighters
Yeah, right. That Michelle, always thinking of the children.
Michelle Obama: It's a 'sacrifice' to travel to Europe to pitch for the Olympics. But I'm doing it for the kids.
Oh, look. There are kids. Everywhere.
Obama 's Friends and Chicago's New Slums
Imagine that. Games, for kids, right in the heart of Chicago. How much land is owned or controlled by friends of Obama (FOO).
A Games in the Heart of the City
One can start with the ever lovely Valerie Jarret and her Habitat, Inc. who fights for profit in the name of the poor.
It's Chicago, even the refs stay bought. Hey, refs were once kids too.

Denial Case Study: Polanski, ACORN and Whoopi
Roman Polanski drugged and raped a thirteen year old girl, was convicted, but fled before sentencing because he didn't like how the judge may or may not sentence him. Now that he has been arrested in Zurich, Switzerland 31 years later, Polanski is using the justice system to avoid being extradited back to the United States to be judged on his flight from justice.
That is the issue at present, but detractors of our legal system, as usual, want to speak to other issues, not the issue of law.
What is worse is than the fact that some of those detractors ignore this issue and they detour further into areas that they are wholly incapable of understanding, they do so from positions of influence. Or are they incapable?
Whoopi Goldberg said on The View, “It was something else but I don’t believe it was rape-rape. He went to jail and when they let him out he was like ‘This guy’s gonna give me 100 years. I’m not staying,” she added.
Later in the programme, she added: “We’re a different kind of society, we see things differently. Would I want my 14-year-old having sex? Not necessarily, no.”
ACORN has shown a pattern of illegal use of federal funds (for housing for the poor) in the political arena. The electoral fraud, racketeering, tax evasion, child sex laws and whore house advice are side issues and, though, still representative of ACORN, they are not the issue, just the catalyst for the current headlines concerning ACORN.
Whoopi Goldberg on The View said, "Here is the gist of what happened. ACORN is a group that is a group of community organizers. They have several places across the country and they work with poor folks and disenfranchised folks for housing, for medical health and all kinds of stuff. The Republicans have always felt that there was something a little off about ACORN and no one could actually put their finger on it. So now two young filmmakers who say that they're conservatives went out to show the kinds of people that are working for ACORN and to give credence to the ideas that, you know, this is not a good organization."
Again, addressing the core issue about federal funding of ACORN is ignored to speak of the things that Goldberg thinks are good about ACORN and she may well purport in the future that in the ACORN case that there was no real fraud-fraud in assisting a potential under the legal radar whore house in illegally immigrating underage girls to serve a prostitutes. That the whore house will evade taxes needed for ACORN's poor is mere bonus for the pimp.
That Republicans do not like, trust or believe ACORN is a given, but that is not the issue. No where does Ms. Goldberg address the 175 groups set up to filter, hide and move taxpayer dollars, paid to ACORN for housing, to be used for political means. Is Goldberg incapable of understanding and addressing these issues or is she turning a blind eye to an organization that supports her political agenda?
I choose Goldberg as an illustrative point of purposeful political denial to address a world and political view detrimental to the core values of the United States of America. One may take virtually any issue, such as illegal immigration, taxation, states rights and others and find that the core issues have not and will not be addressed, because those core issues do not fit the liberal narrative. The Constitution, laws and facts are inconvenient truths that block the desires of liberal groups. The same Constitution, laws and facts that stand between political power and liberals must be denied.
Polanski is guilty of one charge and is now charged with flight and evading sentencing. ACORN has been found guilty of many things, but is now being investigated and charged with illegal use of taxpayer funds.
Remember, William Jefferson Clinton was impeached, not for receiving oral sex from a young lady entrusted into his charge, but for lying to a Grand Jury. And it doesn't matter if the young lady and her parents thought that W. J. Clinton was a nice guy and shouldn't suffer.
UPDATE: Webutante has an excellent post about the Polanski affair and his forced affair with a 13 year old girl.

Rioting A Medal Sport In Chicago Olympics?
According to Obama the economy is as bad as the Great Depression, our health care system sucks and chooses certain segments of society to die and business is the bane of freedom, so he is off to Denmark with Oprah to plead for the Olympic Committee to hold the Olympics in Chicago.
Chicago would bring a lot to the Olympics. A gold in arm-twisting would be headline stuff if a non-Chicagoan won, weightlifting over 300 pounds of cash in the snatch category might only get one a bronze, but lying out of both sides of your mouth (in church) will get you a silver.
Forget golf unless the clubs are larger and sharpened at one end, forget ball room dancing unless beating your partner to death is included, forget cricket unless the bats have nails and the gloves have brass knuckles and darts is just too tame.
Rioting! That's the ticket. Gangs competing for gold by beating one another to death. Though hard to differentiate from politics, rioting is a school sport.
4 Chicago Teens Charged in Beating Death (MyFox Phoenix)
Bolingbrook Student Stabbed
Loren-Maltese Talks About Life in Prison
Twelve Teens Face Felony Gang Charges (MyFox Atlanta)
Bolingbrook High School put on Lockdown After Stabbing
Teen Beaten To Death On South Side
Uptown Rioting Caught on Tape
Right now, relatively unknown Bolingbrook has moved to 5-2 odds for a place on the medal platform, but Obama may have secret plans in the works with Oprah as they jet to Denmark.
Maybe Fenger High School can send their worst. Maybe Obama wants Chicago Lab to bring their razor sharp fencing epees or the sailing team could lead their belaying pins.

Zalaya Has Gas
They're torturing me, Honduras' Manuel Zelaya claims
It's been 89 days since Manuel Zelaya was booted from power. He's sleeping on chairs, and he claims his throat is sore from toxic gases and ``Israeli mercenaries'' are torturing him with high-frequency radiation.
Yeah, but the real torture will begin with ear splitting broadcasts of Madonna, Elton John and Barry Manilow.
Now that's torture.

I Agree With LaHood
And he should start with the biggest mouths such as Reid, Rangel, Pelosi Emanuel, Schumer and Durbin for starters.
I mean we should at least try to get back to the good old days of Cynthia McKinney.
Secretary slams political 'trash talk'
"Now, when you get farmers picking their corn and beans, driving around in their (tractor) cabs listening to, from 9 to 3, these guys all revved up against Obama, against everything that he's trying to accomplish, that gets people stirred up. "
Yeah, nothing worse than those hick farmers listening to Limbaugh, Hannity and Beck. They just might grab a pitchfork when they hear what this administration has planned.
LaHood went on to say, "And it also gives the idea that maybe these politicians don't know what they're doing."
Yep, he'd be right about that.
Jeez, do these guys know why we had our butts kicked in elections of late. We acted and voted like Democrats, tried to be really really nice guys and finally ended up as corrupt as Rangle.

Pelosi Astrotearing For ObamasCare
Nana Pelosi remembers those years in tears. Those days being when Democrats were murdering Democrats in California and those remembrances cause her fear and tears as she tries to lay the groundwork for all the unions, leftist organizers, and administration personnel to make America cry for ObamasCare.
Her launch board was Astrotearing for civility and Astroturfing protests against insurance companies. I have to assume that her civility includes not using inflammatory rhetoric such as un-American,, Nazi and other slurs.
Now that we've all enjoyed that fine performance of Astrotearing for health and civility we can now look forward to the Astrosurfing section of their political drama; hating on insurance companies.
Health reformers targeting 'enemies'
But Health Care for America Now (HCAN), which is backed by a coalition of labor unions and liberal groups including ACORN and MoveOn.org, organized the protests to target insurance companies and drafted the plan, which describes the demonstrations as part of its "insurance enemies project."
The document, a copy of which was obtained by The Washington Times, details specific talking points, tactics, props and strategies to stage the protests. It lists goals that include action that "mobilizes our base by animating existing anger about private insurers."
The HCAN field plan dictates that each protest will include a minimum of 30 participants, target only health care insurers CIGNA, WellPoint and United Health Care and showcase what it calls "victims," or people who have either lost insurance, can't afford it or were denied coverage because of pre-existing medical conditions.
"We built a campaign to win health care reform and that is exactly what we are working on," said HCAN national spokeswoman Jacki Schechner, who authenticated the documents. But she asserted: "There is nothing top-down about this."
Nah, nothing top-down about this.
HCAN designed the demonstrations set for Tuesday to "help shape new national narrative around the national health care debate" by vilifying insurance companies, according to the field plan.
The strategy aims to sway Capitol Hill lawmakers by making them choose between voting for the president's health care reforms or siding with insurance companies.
Street theater always has to have some good ole pathos (and humor it appears), so bring on the no top-down faux victims and clerics to make demands a stalk insurance company executives.
Tactics listed in the field plan include "large-scale rally or march to insurance company with victims leading delegation in to speak to CEO or other spokesperson." It suggests materials or props including signs, pictures and "good stories that embody our key message."
Under the heading "escalation," the plan advises: "We could start with a delivery to the office and then escalate by bird-dogging the CEO or company by bringing smaller delegations every day to this location or others until we get an answer."
Another tactic described in the document is "vigils featuring faith leaders [or] clergy" who visits insurance company office with the demand. For props, it suggest using "spokespeople who can wear clerical uniforms."
It directs the protesters to "escalate by increasing the involvement of congregations to take small actions; hosting more vigils that invite the insurance companies to repent."
Obama and his buds haven't said anything about all this mixing of religion and government, but it has been heard that Thomas Jefferson reportedly growled, "I wish I never wrote that damned letter."
Now, if Jefferson had stated "a wall of separation" between foreign funded political groups and unions and government, A lot of citizens would get solidly behind that idea.
Unfortunately, Obama ain't Jefferson.

Why Don't Chu Mind Chour Own Damned Businss
It's not enough that we have foisted on us bogus claims of climate change and how we have to "fix" the earth that we have "broken", the EPA now is indoctrinating our children and using our money to do it by carving a carbon foot print the size of Yeti.
Steven Chu: Americans Are Like ‘Teenage Kids’ When It Comes to Energy
“The American public…just like your teenage kids, aren’t acting in a way that they should act,” Dr. Chu said. “The American public has to really understand in their core how important this issue is.” (In that case, the Energy Department has a few renegade teens of its own.)
The administration aims to teach them—literally. The Environmental Protection Agency is focusing on real children. Partnering with the Parent Teacher Organization, the agency earlier this month launched a cross-country tour of 6,000 schools to teach students about climate change and energy efficiency.
I'd love to see a break down on how many administration people and its supporters stand to become "Green Barons" when this crap is finally in place for them.
The hypocrites don't want to talk about money, they just want to rake it in. Just like aL Baby Boom Boom Gore does in his "green" Neverland.
When will Obama and his nitwits get it that we don't want their help or their advice? We just want them to go away and to do so as soon as possible.

I Miss Flippo
Visiting a friend after school one day, I got to watch their TV and saw Flippo. After that my parents got sick of hearing about Flippo, but my mother sat with me one day to watch his show on channel 10, WBNS (Wolf Brothers News and Shoes we joked). I couldn't believe she laughed at some of his jokes, especially the ones I didn't understand. (Later in life I would.)
The next year my parents had a really big birthday party for me at the Athletic Club in Columbus. All of my friends and classmates were there. I cannot remember any present I got or anything else about the party that year except the moment that Flippo walked in.
He joked, played insturments, did magic and knew my name.
He was amazing.
