A Public Service Announcement for the Holidays!

With the holidays fast approaching, I would like to share a personal experience with my family & friends about drinking and driving.  As you may know, some of us have been known to have brushes with the authorities from time to time on the way home after a "social session" out with friends.

Well, three days ago I was out for an evening with friends and had several beers, followed by some shots of tequila.  Feeling jolly, I still had the good sense to know that I may be over the legal limit.  That's when I did something that I've never done before.  I took a cab home!

Sure enough, on the way home there was a police road block.  However, since I was in a cab, they waved it past.  I arrived home safely without incident.  This was a real relief, and a complete surprise, because I had never driven a cab before!  I don't even know where I got it, and now that it's in my garage, I don't know what to do with it!

I'm just sayin!

What does Pro-Choice Mean in Liberal Speak?

Labels

IN PERSPECTIVE
Bill Neinast

Labels can be, and often are, pejorative.   One of those words is radical.

Oddly, in the news media, that pejorative term is used only for Republicans. Tea Party advocates, for example, are routinely referred to as radical. 

Even more odd is that the current definition of a radical is “advocating or based on thorough or complete political or social reform; representing or supporting an extreme section of a political party.”   

Advocating for thorough or complete political or social reform sounds more like class warriors than Republicans.  So why they are always called progressives instead of radicals?

Progressives are defined as a group, person, or idea favoring or implementing social reform or new, liberal ideas.  

So, according to the press, Tea Partiers who advocate a smaller government that stays out of our bed rooms and claim that we are “TAXED ENOUGH ALREADY” are radical.  Class warriors, however, who want an ever growing socialist government involved in every aspect of our lives for which we are not paying a fair share of taxes are progressive.  What could be more incongruous?

Now that the press has identified the philosophies of the two major political parties with power in the nation’s capitol, what can be expected if one of the two is in total control?

A  radical government would strive to return to the philosophy of the Founding Fathers.  That would mean a smaller federal government with most of the rule making returned to the state and local governments.

There would be no more federal involvement in things like local school curriculums and ratings.  

Senators and Representatives would be expected to spend more time in their home states and districts than in Washington, D.C.  While back home, they would get first hand experience of living under the rules, regulations, and laws they impose on others.  Just as important, while living with their constituents, they would get real experience in knowing what the people they represent need, want, and desire.

The most important aspect of a radical government is that it would operate under a balanced budget like the one required under the Texas Constitution.  That balance would be maintained by controlling the spending side of the ledger instead of saying, “Hey!, let’s buy that.  We can pay for it by raising taxes on those yokels back home who are not paying their fair share of taxes.”

A progressive government sounds so much better than one of those harsh radical things.  Just look what you get under so called progressive rulers.

Although the problems of socialism are apparent throughout the world, progressives want to get to that heavenly state as quickly as possible.  

The Affordable Care Act, better known as Obamacare, is the current and best example of that thinking.  Progressives think that their henchmen, better known as bureaucrats, know best what kind of medical insurance you need and direct you to buy it.  If you cannot pay for it, the bureaucrats will pay for it with taxes taken out of the pockets of those workers who are not paying their fair share.

They will also use those free flowing tax dollars to pay unwed mothers to have more children so they can receive more federal largess.   Those poor unemployed people also need continuing help.  The progressives will keep extending the unemployment payment deadlines as long as necessary to keep the unemployed from moving to areas begging for employees.

Why worry about the budget?  Just keep buying whatever the bureaucrats desire.  Do not worry about having enough income from taxes to feed those desires.  The Chinese are always, or at least have been up to this point, willing to loan us whatever money we ask for.  

So what, if the Chinese foreclose on those loans by taking over the country?  They are socialists, and therefore would give us the best type government we could hope for.  

That’s what progressives want.  Total control of everything and everyone from Washington.  This includes total ownership of the property and wealth of the country so that it could be redistributed on a “fair” basis so long as that fairness included a larger share far the hard working bureaucrats.

So here’s the perspective.

 An Etymologist, or one who studies words, might disagree with the meanings given to radical and progressive in this item.  As described here, the pundits seem to have hung wrong labels on the two political movements. 

As discussed here, progressive government has a better ring to it than a radical government.  Reality, however, is a better sounding board than the writings or musings of political pundits.  In reality, radical government activities favor individuality.

What’s your choice?

Perspective - The Virtues of the ACA aka Socialized Medicine

IN PERSPECTIVE by Bill Neinast

Some class warriors should be ashamed of themselves.  Those are the ones who were clamoring for “fairness” through socialistic control and distribution of the nation’s wealth.  When they started getting exactly what they were pleading for, they turned tail and began attacking those who were granting their wishes.

This complete turn about is seen in the reaction to ObamaCare by those liberals who are losing their medical care insurance, or their favorite doctor, or both as the socialists in Washington take control of 17.6% of the GDP.

The first problem is the misnomer of the program that is causing all the grief.  The official name is the Affordable Care Act.  One of the Health and Human Services web sites describes this Act as putting consumers back in charge of their health care. 

The Act, however, has nothing to do directly with health care. What it does is require some people to pay, or at least help pay, for others’ health care.  It either provides free health care through Medicaid funded by tax payers, uses tax money to pay subsidies to some who cannot afford all of their insurance premiums, or requires young people to buy insurance that they do not want or need so that insurance companies can afford to provide medical insurance to older people with serious medical problems.

The only effect that use of other people’s money has on medical care is that it will increase the work loads of physicians, medical clinics, and hospitals.  How that will make medical care more “affordable” is a good question.

What it does is make medical care free (Medicaid and subsidized insurance) for many more.  As with anything that’s free, lines at the trough holding the goodies of free medical care will swell.  Now when junior just has the sniffles, he will be rushed off to the doctor because it’s free.

I know this from experience.  I lived with “socialized” or free medical care for 27 years of active duty in the Army.  Friends would take their children to the clinic for the sniffles and admit that they would not do so if there was a charge for the service.

A battalion surgeon told me that he could cut his work load in half if he were allowed to install a lie detector at his front door.  He knew whenever a unit was scheduled for field exercises or some other unpleasant activity simply by the number of soldiers from that unit waiting at his doors when they opened each morning.  It was so much easier and more pleasant to sit in the doctor’s waiting room than to face the rigors of a tent in the summer heat or freezing rain.

Some of the ardent supporters of socialism are already beginning to realize exactly what the socialization of medical care means for them.  As that movement begins to affect them personally and directly, their ardor for big government taking care of everything is beginning to wane.

Those who have had their medical insurance of long standing cancelled because it does not include some coverage that know-it-all bureaucrats in Washington now require are beginning to criticize the authors of this latest step in socialization.  Their chorus of criticism is being joined by other class warriors who are learning that their doctors of long standing are no longer available to them because they are not among the physicians allowed by socialized medical care.

The unhappy socialists are finally beginning to understand why one of their gurus, Nancy Pelosi, said the law had to be passed before they could read it.  If even the most obtuse had waded through the reams of paper needed to print the law, maybe they would not have been so eager for its enactment.  Now they are joining Republicans to grumble about this intrusion of the government into their private affairs.

Conversely, Republicans should be ecstatic about the Affordable Care Act.  There could be no better example or teacher of the loss of freedoms that are characteristic of big government. Every adult who does not qualify for a free medical care program paid for by the government or someone else, is experiencing first hand what it means to have the government direct exactly how he will care for himself and his family. 

He is now required to have medical care insurance without regard to whether he wants it or thinks it is not needed.  The insurance has to be paid from either his pockets or his neighbors‘ pockets.    The insurance must cover specific conditions without regard to the possibility of need, e.g., a 60 year old woman required to have maternity care coverage.

When the costs and effects of ObamaCare finally register with every adult, there should be an immediate revulsion of the thought of socialism.

So here’s the perspective.

The Affordable Care Act gives class warriors exactly what they clamor for on a daily basis.  So they should quit complaining.

Republicans, however, should at least welcome the hands-on training for living under socialism that the Act provides.  That may slow the continuing shift in that direction.

Mandela Eulogies Present Some Interesting Insight into How Political Leaders are Viewed Upon their Deaths

The death of a prominent politician and world leader always brings glowing remembrances of his/her most crowning moments and the deceased politician often takes on a "god like" (or Ala like if you prefer) image.  Whether the leader was a good leader, bad leader, honorable or dishonorable person, the eulogies almost always ignore facts and highlight any and all positive events in their life.  This is true regardless of the political leaders actual political position or party affliation while serving.  (Hitler is the obvious exception.)

The recent death of Nelson Mandela, the man credited with ending apartheid  in South Africa, is no exception.   The NY Times did an article that provides (surprisingly since it is the NY Times) a balanced view of Mandela's political reign that is worth a read. 

The insight this provides can be seen if, as you read the article, you remember last months articles about President Kennedy's untimely death at the hands of an assassin in Dallas in 1963.  By most observers and accurate historians John F. Kennedy was a mediocre president, whose legacy, were it not for the way he died and the orchestrated efforts by his family in concert with the willing media, would have been but a footnote in history.  His sexual escapades while married put him in the category of sleaze ball adulterer and make Bill Clinton's frolics look benign.  Yet his untimely death ushered in the era of Camelot, with almost mythical remembrances of him and his family that virtually guaranteed the election of every Kennedy who ran for office over the next 50 years.

Makes you wonder what the eulogies of George H. W. Bush, William Jefferson Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Hussein Obama look like in the next 50 years!  Do not be surprised!

IN PERSPECTIVE

  by Bill Neinast

Some facts are stranger and harder to believe than fiction.  Here is one of those facts.

Some may disagree, but it is a fact that the late Osama bin Laden won the war.  He must have gloated over his victory until he was fed to the fishes.

Still a doubter?  Then consider these verifiable facts.  To date, there have been 57,614 American casualties in Iraq and Afghanistan.  That includes 5,281 dead American service personnel.  This does not include the 13 soldiers killed at Ft. Hood or the 3,000+ killed in the New York, Pentagon, and Pennsylvania disasters on 9/11.

Then try to enter any federal building or military installation.  Better yet, take a trip  by air, even it is just a short hop between Austin and Houston.  

The annual budget for those Transportation Safety Administration (TSA) guys and gals making you take off your shoes in the airports is 7.91 billion dollars. Those security checks have been a pain for almost 12 years.  So soon, we will have spent 100 million dollars on just this one battle in bin Laden’s war.

There is no easy way to determine the cost of the new bin Laden security at military installations.  Each one is different with varying numbers of entry gates and the amount of traffic in and out of the posts.  Some gates were eliminated and the remaining gates were modified with covered “carports” to protect the  civilian sentries who are on duty 24/7. 

Since 9/11, the Pentagon has gobbled up more than one trillion dollars.  Much of those dollars were for operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Billions of tax dollars are still flooding into that large chunk of the annual budgets.

In contrast, the June 29, 2010, “Cost of Major U.S. Wars”  report by the  Congressional Research Service indicates that  the combined costs of WWII, Korea, and Vietnam are less than a trillion.

The costs discussed above are just those of our country.  Every other country with airline service has some type of TSA activity.  Some of those countries also provided military resources in Iraq and Afghanistan with hundreds of their soldiers killed in combat.

All of these lives and dollars have been spent primarily to fight a disparate, unorganized “army” unleashed and directed by the late bin Laden.  No end is in sight.   His army is like the mythical multi-headed Hydra.  Cut off one head and one or two more grow back.

Surrendering is never easy.  Maybe it is time, however, to cry uncle on at least one battle field--airline security.  

Deaths attributable to airplanes as weapons like those used on 9/11 are less than 4,000.  Since that date, no one has died in an airplane commandeered by bin Laden operatives, but 45,023 have died on Texas highways, just one of 50 states. 

This indicates that we may be putting the eggs in the wrong basket.  The new reinforced doors that must be locked on airline cabin doors have eliminated the chances of a commercial airliner being highjacked.  If a terrorist tried to take command of a plane today by holding one or more attendants hostage, passengers would undoubtedly react as they did in Pennsylvania.  In addition, pilots could be trained to put their plane in a steep dive or other maneuver to throw the terrorist off balance.

Theoretically, if there is no TSA screening at airports, a suicide bomber could board a plane with explosive laden underwear and crash a plane over a densely inhabited area.

That possibility means that boarding a commercial airliner would become almost as dangerous as venturing out on a Texas highway.  There is always a chance that the commercial airliner you are boarding will crash while you are on board, as several do around the world every year

The threat of death or serious injury does not keep millions of Texans from taking the substantial risk of being on a highway every day. Their cousins are doing the same in other states. So why should there be a reluctance to board one of the thousands of planes in the air every day because there is that remote possibility that a suicide bomber may be boarding with you.

So here’s the perspective.

Abolishing a government program is the most difficult task possible.  The time has come, however, to do the impossible and abolish the TSA.  This will create a risk in traveling by air, but, as mentioned, the risk would be less than the one taken on entering a highway.

Billions of dollars could be saved every year by replacing the thousands of luggage scanners with a small hand full of patrolmen with bomb sniffing dogs in every airport.  

The unthinkable might even be tried.  Train the patrolmen to be “profilers” to  be alert for certain types of passengers.

Currently, no end is envisioned in the losing battle with bin Laden and his successors.  So let’s accept defeat and start now to begin winding down the war.

There seems to be a Message Here!

545 vs 300,000,000 People

                   -By Charlie Reese

Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.

Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?

Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes?

You and I don't propose a federal budget. The President does.

You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does.

You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does.

You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does.

You and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve Bank does.

One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one President, and nine Supreme Court justices equates to 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.

I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress. In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central bank.

I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a President to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's responsibility to determine how he votes.

Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.

What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits.. ( The President can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it.)

The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes. Who is the speaker of the House?( John Boehner. He is the leader of the majority party. He and fellow House members, not the President, can approve any budget they want. ) If the President vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if they agree to. [The House has passed a budget but the Senate has not approved a budget in over three years. The President's proposed budgets have gotten almost unanimous rejections in the Senate in that time. ]

It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million cannot replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts -- of incompetence and irresponsibility. I can't think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.

If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair.

If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red.

If the Army & Marines are in Iraq and Afghanistan it's because they want them in Iraq and Afghanistan ..

If they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way.

There are no insoluble government problems.

Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power.
Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like "the economy," "inflation," or "politics" that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do.

Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible. They, and they alone, have the power.

They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses. Provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees... We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!

Speaking of Mellinials and Blaming Others

According to an article in Urgent Communications President Obama has decided, "in the wake of the troubled roll out of the healthcare.gov website, he supports information technology acquisition reform . . . " Seems he has found his scapegoat.  Turns out it wasn't his teams inept leadership or the 500 + million sole source contract that just happened to go to one of his big bundlers, that screwed up the Affordable Care Act web site.  No No No, it is his administrations Federal Government procurement procedure that is the problem.  So instead of leading, taking responsibility for his own failure, his plan is to do what he has always done, go on the offensive and blame others for his irresponsible actions and failure to lead.  The problem you see is that the Federal IT procurement process is just to convoluted for anyone, even a Nobel Peace prize winner to manage.    

It is amazing how arrogant and irresponsible this man is!  He should be resigning, yet he is on the offense being the Eddie Haskel of 2013!

Let's compare two events which within a few days covered the same amount of time, roughly 70 years apart.  As you read the following think through the social and technology evolution that has occurred since the first event!

December 7, 1941  to  May 8, 1945 is

3 years, 5 months, 1 day. 

Beginning on December 8, 1941 the United States was able to mobilize millions forces, build tens of thousands of tanks, planes, jeeps, subs, cruisers, destroyers, aircraft carriers, torpedoes, millions upon millions of guns, bombs, ammo, create supply chains to support the largest war effort ever under taken before or since.  During WW II the US and its allies fought and won battles in North Africa,Italy, France (D-Day), the Battle of the Bulge, & Raced to Berlin to liberate all of Europe from the Axis powers - all while the US and its Allies were also fighting the Japanese in the Pacific! 

That was America then, that was the Greatest Generation, our Moms, Dads, and Grandparents! They had honor, integrity and loved this country.  

Now fast forward 69 years, to:

 March 21, 2010  to  October 1, 2013 is

3 years, 6 months, 10 days. 

….and Obama's hand picked sole sourced team can't build a health care website.      

This is America now that is lead by the millennial's, who are not only a disgrace to the memory of our troops past, present, and future they seem to hate America.  The millennials don't appear to be capable of any rational  thinking and appear to only care about what they are going to eat next, who they are going to screw next, and if they can run fast enough to blame someone else for their screw ups.

Can You Believe the Liberals Stupidity over Syria?

What if in 1952, 13 years after the outbreak of World War II, a group of German Nazi Rebels started a civil war in Germany to overthrow the new German government? Would the US President and Congressional Leaders have survived in office long after advocating that the US should back these Nazi war criminals?  Well my friends today, the US President and a number of Congressional Leaders and an incompetent Secretary of State, are advocating that the US back Al Qaeda in Syria.  You remember Al Qaeda, the Islamic fundamental nut jobs who attacked the US on September 11, 2001, killing more Americans than the Japanese did in Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941.

Obama the Demagogue!

Friends, neighbors, countrymen, lend me your eyes (apologies to Shakespeare),

This IS the best description I have EVER seen of Obama (revised subject line of original sender) .  

It is sent to me by a thoughtful conservative friend.  You will likely agree with this 100% or disdain it 100%.  

If fact, if you don't agree, I'd be interested to learn what you find mistaken in this piece.  Your comments are solicited and welcomed, agree or disagree.  Highest honors to those who think this is worth forwarding.

A President is, sometimes, like a spouse.  It make take some years to find out what they are really about.  For some thick headed spouses, it even takes years and years.  By now, even the densest Americans are reaching an opportune moment to fathom Dear Leader Barack, who is the first U. S. President whose real pre-Presidential occupation can legitimately be stated as "Community Organizer" (now Community-Organizer-in-Chief; Truman, remember, was a haberdasher--good luck to the younger set, looking this up!) and whose political affiliation most accurately can be stated as "Alinsky-ite."  I personally believe he is a Communist and actually hates America.  

By Maureen Scott 

Barack Obama appears to be a tormented man filled with resentment, anger, and disdain for anyone of an opinion or view other than his. He acts in the most hateful, spiteful, malevolent, vindictive ways in order to manipulate and maintain power and control over others. Perhaps, because, as a child, he grew up harboring an abiding bitterness toward the U.S. that was instilled in him by his family and mentors…it seems to have never left him.

It is not the color of his skin that is a problem in America .

Rather it is the blackness that fills his soul and the hollowness in his heart where there should be abiding pride and love for this country.

Think: Have we ever heard Obama speak lovingly of the U.S. or its people, with deep appreciation and genuine respect for our history, our customs, our sufferings and our blessings? Has he ever revealed that, like most patriotic Americans, he gets "goose bumps" when a band plays "The Star Spangled Banner," or sheds a tear when he hears a beautiful rendition of " America the Beautiful?" Does his heart burst with pride when millions of American flags wave on a National holiday - or someone plays "taps" on a trumpet? Has he ever shared the admiration of the military, as we as lovers of those who keep us free, feel when soldiers march by? It is doubtful because Obama did not grow up sharing our experiences or our values. He did not sit at the knee of a Grandfather or Uncle who showed us his medals and told us about the bravery of his fellow troops as they tramped through foreign lands to keep us free. He didn't have grandparents who told stories of suffering and then coming to America, penniless, and the opportunities they had for building a business and life for their children.


Away from this country as a young child, Obama didn't delight in being part of America and its greatness. He wasn't singing our patriotic songs in kindergarten, or standing on the roadside for a holiday parade and eating a hot dog, or lighting sparklers around a campfire on July 4th as fireworks exploded over head, or placing flags on the grave sites of fallen and beloved American heroes.

Rather he was separated from all of these experiences and doesn't really understand us and what it means to be an American. He is void of the basic emotions that most feel regarding this country and insensitive to the instinctive pride we have in our national heritage. His opinions were formed by those who either envied us or wanted him to devalue the United States and the traditions and patriotism that unites us. 

He has never given a speech that is filled with calm, reassuring, complimentary, heartfelt statements about all the people in the U.S. Or one that inspires us to be better and grateful and proud that in a short time our country became a leader, and a protector of many. Quite the contrary, his speeches always degenerate into mocking, ridiculing tirades as he faults our achievements as well as any critics or opposition for the sake of a laugh, or to bolster his ego. He uses his Office to threaten and create fear while demeaning and degrading any American who opposes his policies and actions. A secure leader, who has noble self-esteem and not false confidence, refrains from showing such dread of critics and displaying a cocky, haughty attitude.


Mostly, his time seems to be spent causing dissension, unrest, and anxiety among the people of America, rather than uniting us (even though he was presented to us as the "Great Uniter"). He creates chaos for the sake of keeping people separated, envious, aggrieved and ready to argue. Under his leadership Americans have been kept on edge, rather than in a state of comfort and security. He incites people to be aggressive toward, and disrespectful of, those of differing opinions. And through such behavior, Obama has lowered the standards for self-control and mature restraint to the level of street-fighting gangs, when he should be raising the bar for people to strive toward becoming more considerate, tolerant, self-disciplined, self-sustaining, and self-assured.

Not a day goes by that he is not attempting to defy our laws, remove our rights, over-ride established procedures, install controversial appointees, enact divisive mandates, and assert a dictatorial form of power.


Never has there been a leader of this great land who used such tactics to harm and hurt the people and this country.  Never have we had a President who spoke with a caustic, evil tongue against the citizenry rather than present himself as a soothing, calming and trustworthy force.

 Never, in this country, have we experienced how much stress one man can cause a nation of people - on a daily basis! Obama has promoted the degeneration of peace, civility, and quality of cooperation between us. He thrives on tearing us down, rather than building us up. He is the Architect of the decline of America , and the epitome of a Demagogue.

Thanks to my friend and respected conservative that shared this with me.
