Important Message From The President Regarding Health care and You.

Global warming "scientist" almost does us all a favor

THE scientist at the centre of the “climategate” email scandal has revealed that he was so traumatised by the global backlash against him that he contemplated suicide. Ohhh, poor baby.  I really feel sorry for him, don't you?

Professor Phil Jones said in an exclusive interview with The Sunday Times that he had thought about killing himself “several times”. He acknowledged similarities to Dr David Kelly, the scientist who committed suicide after being exposed as the source for a BBC report that alleged the government had “sexed up” evidence to justify the invasion of Iraq.

In emails that were hacked into and seized upon by global-warming skeptics before the Copenhagen climate summit in December, Jones appeared to call upon his colleagues to destroy scientific data rather than release it to people intent on discrediting their work monitoring climate change.  What?  He "appeared" to have done so?  Uhh, no ... he DID so.  Way to go, "objective" jourrrrrnalist.

Jones, 57, said he was unprepared for the scandal: “I am just a scientist. I have no training in PR or dealing with crises.”   Really?  How about "training" in lying and cheating and stealing?  How about "training" in morals and decency and honesty?  Did you get any of that when you were growing up?  No?  How about school ... any of that kind of "training" there?  Nothing about knowing the difference between right and wrong?  No wonder you could attempt to pull off this hoax with no feelings of guilt. And you know what?  I'll bet he STILL doesn't feel guilty.  He only feels fear of people coming to kill him.

The incident has taken a severe toll on his health. He has lost more than a stone in weight and disclosed he is on beta-blockers and using sleeping pills. He said the support of his family, and especially the love of his five-year-old granddaughter, had helped him to shake off suicidal thoughts: “I wanted to see her grow up.”

He remains at risk, still receiving death threats from around the world including two in the past week: “I was shocked. People said I should go and kill myself. They said that they knew where I lived. They were coming from all over the world.” More at timesonline:

Well now ... what SHOULD happen to someone who willfully causes the fraudulent spending of billions of dollars?  What SHOULD happen to someone who fraudulently causes  corportations to lose billions of dollars in profits ... causing untold numbers of layoffs and losses in pension money due to lower stock prices?   I know what I think should happen to this guy.  He's nothing but a terrorist with a college degree.

Robert F Kennedy Jr is either stupid or he's a liar

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who flies around on private planes so as to tell larger numbers of people how they must live their lives in order to save the planet, wrote a column last year on the lack of winter weather in Washington, D.C.

In Virginia, the weather also has changed dramatically. Recently arrived residents in the northern suburbs, accustomed to today's anemic winters, might find it astonishing to learn that there were once ski runs on Ballantrae Hill in McLean, with a rope tow and local ski club. Snow is so scarce today that most Virginia children probably don't own a sled. But neighbors came to our home at Hickory Hill nearly every winter weekend to ride saucers and Flexible Flyers.

In those days, I recall my uncle, President Kennedy, standing erect as he rode a toboggan in his top coat, never faltering until he slid into the boxwood at the bottom of the hill. Once, my father, Atty. Gen. Robert Kennedy, brought a delegation of visiting Eskimos home from the Justice Department for lunch at our house. They spent the afternoon building a great igloo in the deep snow in our backyard. My brothers and sisters played in the structure for several weeks before it began to melt. On weekend afternoons, we commonly joined hundreds of Georgetown residents for ice skating on Washington's C&O Canal, which these days rarely freezes enough to safely skate.

HEE HAW -- HEE HAW!! Pipe down, you jackass. 

Yes, folks, the OLLLLDDDDDD days of snow in Virginia are gone now ... thanks to the likes of Exxon-Mobile (according to this doofus.) I mean, even if global warming were true, can a couple of degrees really matter in terms of the amount of snow in and around Washington DC? I mean, how damn stupid do they think you are? Answer: Mighty damn stupid.

Meanwhile, they just had a blizzard of EPIC proportions.  Do you think you'll be hearing anything from the braying jackass?

Look what I found

Yes you too can learn BO and surprise Professor Abbi. You will be able to make fun of your neighbors and teachers without them knowing what the f**k you're saying.

You would be in great demand by the United Nations since they are too stupid to know they would never really need your services. You could make up words all the time and spell them any way you want (how fun would that be). You could claim your Andaman island was taken by "Evil Capitalists" (done in your native tongue of course) and receive reparations for your horrible life.

I can't even imagine the amount of FREE (that means no taxpayer money is involved) money that would come pouring in from all the gov grants they would throw at you to video yourself speaking the language.

So get your copy of BO, before someone else gets it first.

Many Years Ago

When I was a youth, watching Saturday morning cartoons, they had these "Schoolhouse Rock" PSA's in between shows. This one is the reason to this day I have the Preamble memorized, but I have to sing it in my head. They might still run PSA's on Saturday mornings, but they are probably about global warming, or being green, or some such crap. On a different note, this one must be the reason I like cheese so much.

Woe is us ... for some reason

Excerpt from this article:

The last member of a 65,000-year-old tribe has died, taking one of the world's earliest languages to the grave. Ohhhhhh ... NOOOOOoooo!!!  For some reason, this sounds ominous.

Boa Sr, who died last week aged about 85, was the last native of the Andaman Islands who was fluent in Bo.

Named after the tribe, Bo is one of the 10 Great Andamanese languages, which are thought to date back to the pre-Neolithic period when the earliest humans walked out of Africa.

Boa Sr, who died last week aged about 85, was the last native of the Andaman Islands who was fluent in Bo

"Since she was the only speaker of Bo, she was very lonely as she had no one to converse with," Professor Abbi told the Times.  Oh really?  I'm guessing it wasn't that big of a deal to her ... you know ... since she didn't bother learning another language over the last many years.  Either that, or you're lying ... "professor."

Professor Abbi managed to speak with Boa using a local version of Hindi and Great Andamanese, which is a mixture of all ten tribal languages.  Oh, so she could speak an amalgam of ten different tribal languages.  I guess she was the only one around who could do that as well so she STILL didn't have anyone to talk to.  How sad. I guess it was just you and her for the last ... how many years was it  ... that you neglected to teach her the language of her neighbors?

With the death of Boa Sr and the extinction of the Bo language, a unique part of human society is now just a memory,' he said.

'Boa’s loss is a bleak reminder that we must not allow this to happen to the other tribes of the Andaman Islands.' More here:

Yes, and it's "bleak" because?  Is it because you won't have anything to bleed the government's money with "study" anymore?  Seriously, what profit-making entity is paying for the study of this crap?

And we shouldn't "allow" WHAT to happen to the other tribes? Several of them ban contact with outsiders ... yet YOU want to "help" them, right?  What are you going to do ... make them have more sex?  Are you going to personally oversee all the sex and procreating that goes on in the tribes?  Are you going to set up minimums or something?  You jackass ... why don't you mind your own business.  Oh, I forgot, you don't have any business except bleeding the taxpayers "studying."

Anyway, I could be wrong in my thinking here.  Somebody straighten my dumbass out.

Lucky we spent money when the libs said so ... WHEW!!

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The number of newly laid-off workers filing initial claims for jobless benefits rose unexpectedly last week, evidence that layoffs are continuing and jobs remain scarce. Yes, it was completely "unexpected."  Watch them swoon tomorrow when the sun comes up.

The rise is the fourth in the past five weeks. Most economists hoped that claims would resume a downward trend that was evident in the fall and early winter. More here: Yes, the fourth in the past five weeks ... and it SHOCKED everyone ... that is, everyone who has shit for brains.

Oh woe is us. Who could have known that a liberal government would tax and spend with abandon, ruining the currency and the economy as well. Who would have known you can't spend your way out of debt?  WHO? WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THIS COMING?

What? The ponzi scheme didn't work out?

Don't look now. But even as the bank bailout is winding down, another huge bailout is starting, this time for the Social Security system.

A report from the Congressional Budget Office shows that for the first time in 25 years, Social Security is taking in less in taxes than it is spending on benefits.

Instead of helping to finance the rest of the government, as it has done for decades, our nation's biggest social program needs help from the Treasury to keep benefit checks from bouncing -- in other words, a taxpayer bailout. More here:

Yes, for decades the congress has squandered our social security money instead of investing it.  They spent it with abandon.  They used that money for anything they damn well pleased.  WOE!!  WHO COULD HAVE GUESSED THEY WOULD DO THAT?  They stole your money for your whole life and NOW where is it?  Where would it be if they had let you invest it?

A while back I figured out that an average person would have had about $650,000 in the bank if he had invested (at a modest 8% return) the same money the government stole out of his paycheck.  As it is, you retire at 67 and they want to give you about $18,000 a year.  AND, when you die, you can't leave the rest to your wife/children.  GREAT FUCKING PLAN, COMMUNIST JACKASSES!!

Liberals morons loose with the nation's credit card

WASHINGTON (AP) - Facing a politically excruciating vote, House Democratic leaders are counting on new budget deficit curbs to help smooth the way for a bill allowing the government to go $1.9 trillion deeper into debt over the next year - or about $6,000 more for every U.S. resident.

The debt measure set for a House vote Thursday would raise the cap on federal borrowing to $14.3 trillion. That's enough to keep Congress from having to vote again before the November elections on an issue that is feeding a sense among voters that the government is spending too much and putting future generations under a mountain of debt to do it.

Already, the accumulated debt amounts to $40,000 per person. And the debt is increasingly held by foreign nations such as China. Passage of the bill would send it to President Barack Obama, who will sign it to avoid a first-ever, market-rattling default on U.S. obligations. Democrats barely passed it through the Senate last week over a unanimous "no" vote from GOP members present. More here:

Whaaaaaa?  Liberal Dipshitocrats are borrowing and spending money?  Who would have PREDICTED this?  It comes as a shocker to us all.  Raise the debt limit, print more money, GO GO GO!!  We're ruining the currency of the nation ... YAYY!  We're FINALLY bringing those selfish capitalists in America to their knees.

Oh well, they probably have plans to stop spending so much, right?  Here's a graph of the projected deficit spending through 2019.  YEAHHH - THUMBS UP!!!

Credit rating, Schmredit rating

WHAT?  OUR NATION'S CREDIT RATING AT RISK?

Moody’s Investors Service fired off a warning on Wednesday that the triple A sovereign credit rating of the US would come under pressure unless economic growth was more robust than expected or tougher actions were taken to tackle the country’s budget deficit.

In a move that follows intensifying concern among investors over the US deficit, Moody’s said the country faced a trajectory of debt growth that was “clearly continuously upward”. More here:

What?  Who cares about the credit rating of the US.  What's the big deal?  Those Henny Pennies should just  shut their beaks ... I mean, just relax ... what can happen? Right?  Right?  Bawwk, bawwk, cluck.

Do you mean to tell me that we can't just spend as much as we want without repercussion?  Why not?  This is quite the mystery!!

So True

Sandi The Dog

I've been taking Sandi walking with me recently.  No matter how wet or cold it is, she loves it.  This pic isn't her but it looks very much like her after some of the walks.  I have to wipe her down about half the time.  We've been going about 4 miles each time.  She lost three pounds last week.  She told me she was going to get skinny and "flaunt it."

Found it at Bits and Pieces:

Government can solve all problems

The era of big government has returned with a vengeance, in the form of the largest federal work force in modern history.

The Obama administration says the government will grow to 2.15 million employees this year, topping 2 million for the first time since President Clinton declared that "the era of big government is over" and joined forces with a Republican-led Congress in the 1990s to pare back the federal work force. More at WashingtonTimes:

Yep, bigger government is the answer to everything.   Can't you see how they're on the verge of solving all of the problems of mankind?  All they need is a few more laws, a few more employees, a few more agencies, and just a little bit more ... just a LITTLE BIT MORE ... of your money ...  and with it, just a little bit more of your freedom.

 

  

 

We should copy the socialist Canadian healthcare

ST. JOHN'S, N.L. -- Newfoundland Premier Danny Williams will undergo heart surgery later this week in the United States. More here:

"I can confirm that Premier Williams did leave the province this morning and will be undergoing heart surgery later this week," said Mr. Williams' spokeswoman, Elizabeth Matthews.

What?  How can that be?  I thought we had a totally screwed up heatlhcare system, didn't you?  I thought Canada's was FAR superior to ours.  Isn't that's what the media has been telling us ... every fucking day ... for years.

The Klown disagrees with Sarah Palin

In a Facebook post, Sarah Palin calls on President Obama to fire Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel for reportedly describing the strategy of Senate liberals as "fucking retarded."

"Yes, Rahm is known for his caustic, crude references about those with whom he disagrees, but his recent tirade against participants in a strategy session was such a strong slap in many American faces that our president is doing himself a disservice by seeming to condone Rahm's recent sick and offensive tactic." More here:

Ok, first of all I think more politicians should be as straightforward as this.  How is this "sick and offensive?"  Just because it's offensive to people who have a retarded relative some people then we leap to the conclusion that it's offensive to all?  And the attitude of Sarah seems to be "and if you don't agree, there's something wrong with you."  Ok, I reckon not.  Even if Rahm has disdain for retarded people (which he most assuredly does not,)  whatever happened to "sticks and stones?"


This kind of tactic is constantly employed by "victims," have you noticed?  These people spend massive amounts of time and energy trying to get others to use different words and what do they accomplish?  Everything is so much better now that nobody says kike, nigger, retarded, chink, cracker, honky, jiggaboo, indian, redskin, etc etc.  Yep, society is all fixed now.  Once we find all the offensive words and eliminate them, there will never be another offensive word.  Whew, we're all looking forward to that glorius day.  Hell, I was halfway through writing this post before I had to go back and make some changes because I completely forgot that Sarah had a child with Down syndrome.

Secondly, I don't know what strategy he's calling retarded, do you?  Does it matter?

I mean, c'mon, Rahm Emanuel is a loathsome peckerwood but not because he uses the word "retarded."  I'll say this much for him though, he says what he really thinks, and I wish more people did.

No shit, doofus
