Birther Questions
When it comes to the Obama defenders on the birth certificate question I am reminded of a line from Hamlet. “The lady doth protest too much, methinks.” Reworking the line a bit : The defenders doth protest too much, methinks.
I have been interested but not excited about the Obama birth certificate issue for [...]
The Tenth Amendment
The 10th Amendment to the Constitution states: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”
This amendment was often used until the Roosevelt administration to restrain the Federal Government from usurping the primacy of the [...]
Nancy Pelosi Says—
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday, told a news conference in San Francisco: “There’s no way I can pass a bill in the House of Representatives without a public option.”
It is simply another lie that proves that the Democrats are not interested in a bipartisan approach, to the Health Care Bill. It has [...]
Barney Frank- Not So Comic Relief
At a town meeting in Barney Frank’s Congressional District he was addressed by a young lady who likened the actions of the Obama administration to Nazi actions in the 30’s. Her presentation was over the top. She was within her first amendment rights to make a less than civil commentary on the proposed [...]
Health Care Public Option Dispute
The Democrats in Congress announced today that they didn’t care what the public, the Republicans or the President thought about the Public Option in the Health Care Bill.
Nancy and her “No Nothings” in Congress indicated that the Public Option would stay despite the polls which show that the public is not interested in government control [...]
Kites- The West Wind and a Big Ball of String
When I was a kid the summers we spent at the beach seemed to have a magic quality with no end. Almost every day had the prevailing Southeast wind bringing a hint of ocean that combined with the sun and sultry heat to make conditions perfect for playing in the sand at the oceans [...]
Euthanasia & Abortion - Expanded Government Control
The Health Care debate has focused my thought on issues that extend beyond the arguments we hear being shouted about in the Town Hall type meetings. The creeping growth of government over the years has seldom received the attention that the Health Care issues have stimulated.
Government has been involved with abortion issues for years and [...]
Market Rally or Suckers Rally
Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke announced that the recession shows signs of ending. The Stock Markets have rallied, helped by his positive statements. The Chairman must have been taking a course in the Power of Positive Thinking. Six months ago he was nothing but gloom and doom with his public pronouncements. He had us [...]
Obama: Maybe It’s A Hearing Problem?
A sign held outside of the school in which the President promoted his failing effort to socialize our Health Care in America said” Stop the lying –Listen - No Socialist Government health plan.
The President doesn’t seem to be listening and certainly is stretching the truth with his platitudinal presentations concerning the “wonders” of his plan. [...]
1st Amendment: Pelosi Hoyer Revisions
Nanct Pelosi and Majority leader Steny Hoyer have joined in fabricating their new version of the 1st Amendment. Only those who are supporting the outrageous Democrat Health proposals can speak. Those millions who are upset with the Pelosi/Obama plan are being characterized as un-American disruptors. The angry comments at Town hall meetings [...]
