Women, support your position. Write in Hillary’s name.

Don’t be dissed by a lightweight!

(A close friend, American, who lives in England and works in Europe, comes back here for all medical work, including dentistry. He says, “I wouldn’t take a chance in their health care system.”)

Privatisation’ of NHS hospitals faces backlash

Plans to allow private companies to run failing NHS hospitals have prompted a major backlash from doctors, patients’ groups and unions.

Ministers have outlined proposals to monitor hospitals and primary care trusts against a set of standards and if no improvement is seen the whole board of managers will be sacked and a new team brought in from elsewhere in the NHS or from private firms.

But there seemed little interest from private sector companies that are already providing care to NHS patients citing the major risks involved with taking on a failing trust.

Why should any private company take on this mess? The government cannot run the health care; they want some one to assume command so they have a punching bag when it fails.
All this has another name: Hillarycare.

Other private hospitals that already treat NHS patients have privately expressed concerns and stated they would not be bidding for the contracts.
[snip]
“There is an immense amount of talent within the NHS - in leadership and management - and this should be nurtured, grown and developed to ensure NHS Trusts do not find themselves in a position of failure in the first place.”

Righto, chaps this is why those who can afford to, travel to India or the U.S. for surgical procedures.

We do not have a health care problem here. We have a government caused insurance problem. States will not allow persons to buy basic policies from low cost insurers. Mandated coverage such as acupuncture and aromatherapy to grift special interest businesses add to costs. Community rating and preferred insurers jack up the premiums, a non-smoker pays the same premium as some 3-pack-a-day hacker for the same policy. That makes insurance premiums socially acceptable but out of reach for lower income people.

It’s time for a dictionary lesson for our friends on the left:

• Democracy - noun - A political system in which the supreme power lies in a body of citizens who can elect people to represent them.
• Democratic - adjective - Pertaining to or of the nature of democracy or a democracy.
• Democratic rules committee - noun - A body of party officials determined to fix the nomination for Barack Obama.

That’s certainly the proper definition after Saturday’s ruling that awarded delegates to Obama from a Michigan primary he didn’t participate in. And didn’t Democrats argue that all the votes had to be counted during the Florida recount? Would they have accepted counting half the hanging chads as a compromise? Not likely, but that’s what their split the baby decision on giving Florida and Michigan delegates half a vote equates to.

Apparently, Republicans aren’t the only ones rigging elections.

Boston Mayor Thomas Menino:

Mayor Thomas M. Menino said that Hillary Clinton should not run for vice president on a ticket with Barack Obama because her husband, former president Bill Clinton, could cause problems for the new administration.

“If she got back into the White House, she’d bring along Big Daddy, and he would overshadow the president,” Menino said in an interview.

That must be the first time I have ever agreed with Menino.

The end is near for Mrs. Clinton. Her Indiana win wasn’t the seismic shift needed to convince super delegates that they should abandon Barack Obama. It’s just a matter of time before her campaign succumbs to a lack of time and money.

Liberals must be ecstatic at Obama’s ascendancy. They have the nation’s most liberal senator one step away from the presidency. Conservatives can only shake their heads as the Republican Party nominates a quasi-liberal. Maybe McCain can battle Obama for the independents, but will conservatives support him? I certainly don’t see or feel much conservative energy or enthusiasm for McCain or the Republican Party. There’s not much about either a conservative can get excited about.

The big “guns” write:

Sen. Hillary Clinton’s mailing attacking Sen. Barack Obama’s record on guns appears to include a striking visual gaffe: The image of the gun pictured on the face of the mailing is reversed, making it a nonexistent left-handed model of the Mauser 66 rifle. [snip]

The Mauser 66, released in 1966 and no longer manufactured, is a high-end hunting rifle that found military use as a sniper rifle. In Clinton’s mailing, it’s pictured with a double-set trigger, a customization that’s popular in Europe but “almost unheard of in the United States,” Forgett said.

“It’s a $2,200 German import — it’s hardly typical of what the average workingman in Indiana uses,” he said.

The left is really “on target.”

Interesting to see the imagery warped to fit the ad. The image of the rifle shown was flipped to balance the composition befitting a Leftist.

Bolt action rifles are manufactured to accommodate southpaw shootists. Scopes however are not. Note the windage adjustment on the scope at the very top of the picture. That is always on the right side of the scope.

Hillary’s people are knowledgeable about guns? Only to recognize one to grab it themselves.

Paul wasn’t struck this hard

The light of conversion, brighter than that seen by Paul, altered Hillary’s belief in church going and guns. The stump Gospel according to Hillary now proclaims “how positive and ‘fundamentally optimistic’” we are.
Shorn of her elitism like a prostitute’s hair, Hillary castigated Obama’s remarks about bumpkins. Her new view posits that bumpkins are good people, stupid but good.

“I disagree with Senator Obama’s assertion that people in our country cling to guns and have certain attitudes about immigration or trade simply out of frustration,” she said.
She described herself as a pro-gun churchgoer, recalling that her father taught her how to shoot a gun when she was a young girl and said that her faith “is the faith of my parents and my grandparents.”

This alleged conversion took place before the corkscrew landing in Bosnia but after she tried to join the Marines.
God works in mysterious ways. From the Obamessiah to Clinton’s vision, religion is returning to American politics.

Can I get an Amen!

From under rocks and the backs of dank caves comes this crowd, like the living dead, all moaning:

Don’t settle for chump change: vote socialist!

Don’t be seduced by the hype. You can proudly resist the manipulations of the fat cats by voting for a bonafide socialist candidate. This beats voting for the lesser of two evils or “none of the above,” because you choose a real alternative. [snip]

The candidates of socialist parties call for ending the war now, full reproductive rights for women, pensions and healthcare for all, rights for peoples of color and immigrants and shifting the economic burden to the rich. [snip]

The only intricacy with this scenario is getting the rich to go along.
The amputation of the opulence from prior owners produces this quandary, who holds the appropriated hoard for the people? How does beneficent leaders solve this problem? Perhaps they become the rich.
Talk about permanent revolution; the peasants can perpetually rise up to remove the assets from the rich.

The Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL), running Gloria La Riva, is advancing some especially worthy demands, including a $15 minimum wage and an end to police brutality. If only PSL, which leads the anti-war group ANSWER, collaborated with others in the movements!

What, where are the free condoms, rubber tire sandals or shovels? How does $15/hour gibe with reducing the holdings of the despised rich? I suspect this needs more thought.
Does the end of police brutality cover those holding opposing views?

The Peace and Freedom Party (PFP) in California also has an anti-capitalist program, although not all of its candidates do. PFP will choose this time’s candidates in August.
Casting a vote for a candidate who is truly independent from the system will let you brag that you took a step fixing this murderous system we live under. Vote socialist in 2008!

Would not living under such a murderous system as ours, cause all the oppressed socialists to flee to a haven such as Cuba or Venezuela? We have no barriers to emigration. There they can live in idyllic life of shared poverty and ownership of a shovel.

This doesn’t show a great track record of Progressive largess. True to form however, they talked about it so that’s what matters.
Take note that the Clinton’s filed an extension; this allows for “corrections” to the tale if she wins the nomination. If not, no more forms see the light of day! I wonder if the underwear deduction is there?

Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton and former President Bill Clinton released tax data Friday showing they earned $109 million over the last eight years, an ascent into the uppermost tier of American taxpayers…[snip]

The idea that charity begins at home seems to be the Clinton motto.

During that time, the Clintons paid $33.8 million in federal taxes and claimed deductions for $10.2 million in charitable contributions. The contributions went to a family foundation run by the Clintons that has given away only about half of the money they put into it, and most of that was last year, after Mrs. Clinton declared her candidacy. [snip

“Now don’t get me wrong, I have absolutely nothing against rich people,” she said. “As a matter of fact, my husband, much to my surprise and his, has made a lot of money since he left the White House, by doing what he loves doing most — talking to people. But we didn’t ask for George Bush’s tax cuts. We didn’t want them, and we didn’t need them.”

But they made sure they took the deductions. Much akin to Warren Buffet belief Americans should pay more taxes. He didn’t write any extra checks either.
Like most Liberals, when it comes to action, the only part moving is the mouth.

I don’t think any of the idiots in DC understand what’s coming. Take P.J. O’Rourke’s advice. “Never let the people with money and the people with guns, be the same people!”

No matter who’s elected president,
the debt party’s over

Talk about Enron type accounting, our federal books are well done, closer to charred. Here’s some of the hidden bills:

• Supplemental financing bills, outside the budget
• No veterans health-care estimates included
• No equipment replacement costs to restore our military
• Nothing about increases in state and homeland security

The real price is $3 trillion; and growing like Topsy, add to the outlay these goodies.

• Interest on the ever-increasing $9.3 trillion federal debt
• Damage to our credibility from a weak dollar
• Out-of-control inflation in energy

Let us add some more items such as bailouts for mortgage writers and lenders, putting the taxpayers on the hook by nationalizing the banking system and all the unfunded entitlement programs that congress won’t cut. The worst are:

Welfare for Wall Street
J.P. Morgan Chase buys Bear Stern’s equity. Taxpayers get the junk debt totaling billions of dollars. With fresh money it’s the samo-samo speculation Monte game. Why not, they’re playing with your money.

A Third World Financial Industry, Nationalized Banking
The sports on Wall Street played fast and loose, inflating bad debt values and embroidering profits. The Fed’s allowing them to gloss over losses to prevent alarm; talk about hiding a sunrise.

Under and unfunded Social and Entitlement Programs, the Untouchables
Medicare and Social Security entitlements soar to $50 trillion to $65 trillion within a generation. Entitlements will consume the entire budget in a generation. Note how concerned Congress is about this!

Pork and the Lobbying Machine, DC’s biggest busiess
35,000 lobbyists will loiter right after the 2009-2012 first term of the next president, screaming for government largess. The Democrats need them. McCain pledges to veto earmarks, look at his campaign staff, the altruistic ones that are working for “gratis.” All sorts of special interest lobbyists “donating” their time.

Bush’s Free Market Policies
“We’re on top of it,” Bush stated in his New York Economics Club speech in March. Probably like Spitzer got on top.

Roads, Bridges, Water, Sewer: The Appian Way is in better shape
Right! Taxes and more taxes on fuel and real cutbacks in services.

Consumer Savings?
They don’t exist. Big TV’s to luxury vacations, welcome to Hedonist Central where there is no waiting.

Recession Reality
We’ve been dancing to a low 1% Fed rate; the tune was bubble up and flip for loot.
Who’s that knocking at the door? It is the meltdown fiddler; he stopped playing and will have his pay.
All those who pooh-poohed Gramp’s hardship tales will get to live them. Call it a repeating verbal history. Yup, you’ll repeat it.
For all the rad-chic ’60’s anti-capitalists, it couldn’t happen at a better time. Kiss your retirement good-bye!

Don’t look for Mrs. Clinton to quit the race anytime soon. If she were 50, maybe she’d bide her time and accept the vice presidency. But at 60 years of age, she’s no spring chicken. The very best scenario if she throws in the towel is another run at 64. If Obama wins in November, she’d be 68. In our You Tube, media driven, and youth obsessed culture, being forced to wait another 4 to 8 years means another Clinton presidency is unlikely. That’s why I think she’ll stay in the race to the bitter end.

Warning: Don’t view during breakfast.

“Fitna” may be viewed here.

Be aware this is a clip not for the faint of heart.

However, a visual of what the Qoran says might clarify how the other side views the war, of which Iraq and Afghanistan are a small part.

Geert Wilders upset the appeasers, perhaps our anti-war readers might have a dose too, if they have the stomach to actually view the other side’s idea of how to fight.

Tall tales and other escapades from Clinton’s long war!

Imagine this, tape of Hillary ducking snipe…uhh running for cove…uhh, landing in Bosnia. Roll the tape!

Democrat battle action footage!

Are we not so lucky to have two Donk candidates outdoing each other with whoppers?

Move on folks, nothing to see here, just a normal business day at Foggy Bottom. They’re pinking up for Spring.

State Department privacy breach

[snip]
Fresh off of apologizing for the State Department breach of privacy in Barack Obama’s files, Condi Rice has now informed Hillary Clinton that her files were breached, too. Via AP:

Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has told Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton that her passport file was breached in 2007. In a statement from her Senate office, Clinton said she had been contacted by Rice. The State Department plans to brief Clinton’s staff Friday about the unauthorized breach. The development came just hours after the State Department fired two contract employees and disciplined a third for inappropriately examining the passport file of Clinton’s Democratic rival, Sen. Barack Obama.

Obvious point: This is bad. But it probably wouldn’t be wise for Hillary “Filegate” Clinton to make too much of a stink about this, don’t you think?
Obvious point, part II: The State Department is such a freaking joke.
Two State Dept. employees have already been fired and a third disciplined in the Obama case.
Who else is guilty of “imprudent curiosity?” [snip]

Question: Will all the other presidential candidates’ files be checked to see if they were breached?
McCormack “isn’t aware” of any other searches.
“For some reason, people at the working level did the right things. They confronted these employees who had accessed these files in an unauthorized way, but that information did not rise to senior management levels.” [snip]

Just who is BS’ing whom over this? Under a Bobama or Clinton regime, this type of “breach” would be required of the department. B. Hussein Obama is so far around the circle, he’s sniffing Stalin’s shorts. The Clintons practiced this “leadership” style at 1600 Pennsie Ave. for their time ensconced.
Governing with this type of oversight is precisely the form of dominion desired by the Democrat leaders. Big Government can do what it wants to whom ever it wishes. What do you think made Beria and Stalin so paranoid?
