TEA PARTY

You do know why the Republicans – led by Sarah Palin -- are in to Tea Parties.  Don’t you?

 

Think about it.

 

Lots of rich  woman with time on their hands, sitting around … their pinkies daintily raised – talking about the dirty little  people who do all the work in society.  They reach for their cucumber sandwiches … which aren’t really sandwiches … just square cut segments of white bread just the size of the cucumber slice.  Maybe there are some bread squares with a pat of butter. 

 

All the conversation focuses on how the lower classes are cause of all the problems; how the poor are a drain on “proper” society; how the poor don’t deserve anything, and if they are in need, it is because of their own laziness.  Besides …  the Churches have poor houses, soup kitchens and all that charity stuff … and they their donations are adequate … so why should society care?

 

Tea Parties are delightful social events.  Just the thing for those who are removed from the realities of life.  No wonder Palin loves them so much.

Republican Voice in Israel

Dr. Hagai Ben-Artzi, brother-in-law to Israel's Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, appears to be the Republican voice in Israel -- saying what the GOP would be too politically scared to proclaim ... That President Obama is an anti-Semite and that "In another year, you [Obama] will disappear. Who will remember you?"

Well, we remember Ronald Reagan -- he doubled the national debt and opposed a rational policy of energy self sufficiency .. he even tore the solar collectors off the White House. (It shames me to admit that Ronny was a friend of my dad & my dad helped him put together the team which organized New York State for the presidential run. On the other hand, Ronny did send mom a nice note when dad died, and included a formal Presidential Recognition Certificate recognizing my dad's service to the nation ... Wish it had been from a President who could be respected.)

Well, we remember George Bush (Bush 43) -- he doubled the national debt and removed Iraq as a source of oil ... thus driving the pump price of oil to $3.00 ... and securing for his dad multi-millions in Saudi no show speaker's & consultant's "fees"... Of course Bush went a step further and proclaimed the mastermind behind 9/11 -- a fellow we have even seen boast of his role -- to be "irrelevant" in the war on terror ... the relevant one was, of course, the guy who had nothing to do with 9/11 ... had no WMD ... and who kept Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons ... so Bush managed to get Saddam hung. Is the world now safer because of these two idiots ... who are best remembered for displaying their stupidity on the world stage?

In any case ... It would appear that the Prime Minister has an Evangelical Republican in his family ... pitty Israel ... if there are any more of them, that little nation is set for self-destruction.

GOP WANTS MORE ABORTIONS

Yep, that's the facts. The GOP WANTS there to be more abortions -- that's why they oppose Health Care Reform.
Check this from "Sunday, March 14, 2010 news report: "Increasing health-care coverage is one of the most powerful tools for reducing the number of abortions -- a fact proved by years of experience in other industrialized nations. All the other advanced, free-market democracies provide health-care coverage for everybody. And all of them have lower rates of abortion than does the United States."

Now think about it:
1. Roe v Wade legalizes abortion and the per capita rate of abortions DECREASED significantly. More important, all those women who would have died, or become sterile, from illegal abortions were thereafter able to live and have children when they were ready for them. GOP wanted these women dead! That's why they actively oppose legal abortion.
2. The GOP wants more abortions -- which is why they oppose birth control and sex education ... arguing for abstinence policies they know will not, do not, work in practice.
3. Opposition to birth control includes opposition to condoms -- which prevent the spread of STDs and therefore the spread of HIV. The GOP wants you to die! They want the spread of STDs and HIV. They are the agents of death sitting on their Death Panels in state and federal legislatures.

REALITY CHECK:
"The U.N. data measure the number of abortions for women ages 15 to 44. They show that Canada, for example, has 15.2 abortions per 1,000 women; Denmark, 14.3; Germany, 7.8; Japan, 12.3; Britain, 17.0; and the United States, 20.8. When it comes to abortion rates in the developed world, we're No. 1."

We are number one in abortions because the GOP and Evangelicals WANT ABORTION! They want women to abort with coat hangers, become sterile or die. They want that -- because they actively oppose policies which will decrease or prevent those outcomes.

That's also why they oppose single payer health care ... if you can get good, safe, timely treatment -- you'll live a long and healthy life ... the GOP & Evangelicals wants you dead.
As for the evangelicals ... remember: Jesus COMMANDED that you provide health care to those who need it ... he did not command that you make them buy insurance or pay car for themselves. The GOP & Evangelicals are ANTI-CHRIST.

Go ahead ... argue otherwise ... the facts and numbers are against you.

===================================================

Doubt that the GOP hate syou and is anti-American?
Think about this:
A. Reagan doubles the national debt -- you got nothing to show for it; and Reagan supporters go to export your jobs and, in the process, reduce their taxes on money made here.
B. Bush yells Social Security is in trouble -- his answer is to privatize it and take fiscal actions which caused the markets to fail and the current recession.
C. Bush yells Social Security is in trouble -- his answer is to redouble the national debt ... effectively spending several times that which would be necessary to ensure the stolidity and fiscal soundness of Social Security. What did you get? Your children are now so far in debt that they could never support both the National Debt and You! The GOP wants it that way ... they have proved it with both Reagan & Bush ... they have proved it with their Borrow and Spend, Borrow and Spend, Borrow and Spend, Borrow and Spend, ... and yes ... Borrow and Spend policies.

You need not believe me ... you've been told and therefore it is on your head. When the Social Security Admin9stration goes bust ... when the Federal Government uses inflation to reduce the debt -- and the value of your savings, ... if you manage to have any.

GOP HATES THE SICK

The Health Care Reform Bill is ready for a vote.
Following their evil nature, the GOP is promising to block it.
The GOP wants you to go broke paying their Insurance Companies. They want to make their fat cat insurance executives wealthy -- while you die.
Pay the premium -- but don't get sick. If you do get sick, continue to pay the premium ... unless the illness is serious, you lose your job and can't get disability ... then, after that, you live in health care poverty, or die, or what? Do you get better and again pay premiums that cover nothing you really need?
OH! Now let's say you get disability: than the government pays your health care via Medicare & Medicaid. Gee the GOVERNMENT PAYS ... and the insurance companies find another sucker ... buy more GOP politicians ... and the game continues.
BUT REMEMBER THE GOVERNMENT PAYS!
THE GOVERNMENT PAYS!
THE GOVERNMENT PAYS!
But if the government had paid for the minor treatments you originally needed, you would not have gotten worse, lost your job, or gone into Health Care Poverty.
And guess what? The government would have made a fortune on the taxes you paid because you were able to continue working, and it would have saved the all the entitlement expenses need to keep you going after you were disabled. There would be no worthless court actions to collect funds you don't have ... there would be no ... well you can fill in the costs the government covers for the unemployed and disabled and their families.
Remember: The GOP believes the government SHOULD pay ... but only after making their supporters rich beyond measure. The GOP believes it is cheaper to make you so sick you'll die -- and "decrease the surplus population" (as Dickens wrote). The GOP is the Death Panel - and you, your parents and children are the ones they want dead. But don't forget! Before you die, vote them the right to kill you! Donate time & maoney so they get the right to kill you! Commit suicide -- VOTE REPUBLICAN.

==============================================

OH ... something else ... another GOP Hypocrisy you should keep in mind: YOU PAY "SINGLE PAYER HEATH CARE" FOR THE HEALTH CARE OF THOSE WHO ARE BLOCKING YOU GETTING "SINGLE PAYER HEATH CARE".
Ask those who block health care reform to forfeit their government benefits as part of their vote... a sign of their honesty ... as opposed to their refusal to forfeit those benifits - which is a sign of their dishonesty.

PALIN USED SINGLE PAYER HEALTHCARE

From the Huffington Post MARCH 2010:

Palin Crossed Border For Canadian Health Care
Sam Stein Mon Mar 8, 12:26 pm ET

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin -- who has gone to great lengths to hype the supposed dangers of a big government takeover of American health care -- admitted over the weekend that she used to get her treatment in Canada's single-payer system.

"We used to hustle over the border for health care we received in Canada," Palin said in her first Canadian appearance since stepping down as governor of Alaska. "And I think now, isn't that ironic?"

The irony, one guesses, is that Palin now views Canada's health care system as revolting: with its government-run administration and 'death-panel'-like rationing. Clearly, however, she and her family once found it more alluring than, at the very least, the coverage available in rural Alaska. Up to the age of six, Palin lived in a remote town near the closest Canadian city, Whitehorse.

Officials at several hospitals in that area declined to give out information on patient visits.
==================================

Once again we have factual admission of Republican hypocrisy -- this time from the woman who wants to head their party, and lead the United States and the World.

Single payer heath care is good enough for Palin, but not good enough for you -- and she already had better heath care (which you paid for) that you do!

Let's ... daughter gives birth without marriage -- that's a Republican NO-NO! Biblically, for those who follow the Old Testament, don't matter. The FIRST commandment the Creator gave his creation was "Go forth and multiply" ... it was not 'go forth and marry' because marriage didn't matter. How did we know -- if you believe the Herculean legent of a god and mortal producing a child, than where does it state that God MARRIED Mary?

If the father wasn't married to the mother -- what does that make the kid?
Other, that is, than the fulfillment of that first Commandment by the one who rendered it?

However, Repiublicans insist on marriage and therefore make the Creator (or Mary) guilty of ?adultery?, ?fornication?, and I'm sure there are other terms these hypocrits could case about with regard to the boy who declared those who go to temple (church) to be seen to be Hypocrits!
He said the believers would have a closet (room) in their home set aside for prayer and they would go there to speak with His father.

But don't sweat it ... don't debate the point with me ... I'm just reporting what we can all read in, or listen to being read from, the scriptures -- if we have the eyes to se, and ears to hear.
The real fun is not those who would take issue with me citing the instructions to the believers ... the real fun will be on Judgment Day, when we stand, or sit, and watch these fools argue the words with those who proclaimed them.

Ah yes, another day in political blogsville.

DEATH PANEL VOTE! (March 2010)

"President Barack Obama urged Congress Wednesday to vote "up or down" on sweeping health care legislation in the next few weeks, endorsing a plan that denies Senate Republicans the right to kill the bill by stalling with a filibuster." (NY Times 3/3/2010)

Republicans want you to die and an up-down vote will expose the specific ones who are out to kill you.

Under Bush-Bush-Reagan presidencies, we have seen anti-energy policies; doubling and redoubling of the national debt; and persistent deficits. Every financial action engaged in, by GOP politicians, was intended to reach in to your pocket and rob you blind. Note that they routinely overspend while lowering the taxes upon those who are in the best position to pay them -- the super-rich with surplus capital ... capital that is routinely "outsourced" to locations where you'll not be able to reach it -- when you finally admit you've been had.

Think about this:
Insurance firms like AIG are bailed out by taxpayers -- that is, taxpayers pay the claims made against the policies issued by these firms. At the same time, the executives utilize premiums to pay themselves multi-million (tax reduced) salaries and additional multi-million dollar bonuses (for ripping you - the taxpayer - off).

Every nation with national health care (not private executives robbing their people blind) pays half what we do for superior treatment -- and better outcomes. Gee, they don't have high school drop outs telling doctors they can't treat patients. As a result of denials, patients who could recover get worse and need extensive care. We have great extensive care -- you can die with the best technology and medical science has to offer. Companies (when they don't pass the cost to taxpayers) cover the extensive costs because -- in the long run -- it's cheaper than ongoing care that requires an expensive drug on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.

Do I care? Should I care? NOPE! I'm over 65 and I HAVE FULL NATIONAL HEALTH CARE -- I don't care if you die because you are too stupid to want the coverage you provide to me, and the Members of Congress who will vote down coverage for you. They know that one in four Americans cannot think -- they will believe whatever conspiracy theory they are handed ... they will believe that the death panel is to be found in medical boards ... when it is actually they, the members of the GOP elite, who are the true death panel.

Sit back, laugh, and enjoy the show -- watch the GOP yell for fiscal constraint when it comes to helping you and fiscal extravagance when it comes to weapons designed to kill other humans ... watch for them to vote for denial of service Insurance Companies ... which ultimately means they voted to kill you ... Watch them move their wealth and manufacturing offshore and leave the rest of you to die. The GOP is a death panel.
===========================================================
There are GOP idiot supporter who will yell at my words. But there is an objective test. Look for those who deny the up=down vote; look for those who vote against you having health care comparable to that which the voter receives; look at the voting records of those individuals and see how much money they voted to spend on things which did not help you -- that did not provide education, health, roads, or police security -- you'll discover the truth. But fortunately for them -- you aren't interested in the truth -- all you want is nonsensical dogma that will expedite your journey to the grave.
