US Representative Paul Kanjorski (D-PA), recently graced us with his presence on the airwaves of Northeast PA by doing a “Radio Town Hall” on WILK.  Over the August recess, he has done 1 “Telephone Town Hall” in which his staff chose who asked questions, and this “Radio Town Hall”, and refuses to meet face-to-face with his constituents, as he just doesn’t have the time to do so.

In discussing the recent upward revision of the projected 10 year US budget deficit from $7 Trillion to $9 Trillion, he remarked that the $2 Trillion difference “really isn’t a lot of money…”.

And, with a distinct air of condescension reminiscent of Barney Frank’s recent Town Hall,  Mr. Kanjorski makes clear his disdain for those who speak out at Town Halls, referring to them as therapeutic shouting sessions.

For those not familiar with Mr. Kanjorski, he made news this past winter with his appearance on C-SPAN, telling us of a $550 Billion run on money market accounts.  He is also Chairman of the Capital Markets Subcommittee in the House.

With attitudes such as these, is it any WONDER why we are in the shape we’re in?

• The Kremlin White House wants YOU to snitch on your neighbors.  Specifically: “ If you get an email or see something on the web about health insurance reform that seems fishy, send it to flag@whitehouse.gov.”
  
• As people are beginning to see who B. Hussein Obama REALLY is, he is rapidly losing his popularity amongst those who voted him in (dead voters not included in this group).  Before you know it, Chrissy Mathews may end up losing that thrill up his leg.
  
• The latest liberal tactic to come up is to blame organized right wing thugs for disrupting Town Hall meetings held by Democrat Senators and Representatives.  Hmmm.  Did they ever consider the fact that Congress is bringing this upon themselves?
  
• Speaking of thugs, Rahm Emanuel’s thug tactics and use of the   “playbook of the Chicago political machine” have been called out by Representative Darrell Issa.  Way to Go Representative Issa – it’s refreshing to see a Republican with testicular fortitude!
• The White House is linking The Drudge Report to “misinformation” about B. Hussein’s wish for a “single payer health system”. Note to White House:  given the current climate, it’s probably not a good time to go up against Matt Drudge.  Facts are facts, and they eventually will prevail.
• When those of us making under $250k are taxed, remember B. Hussein’s election pledge to NOT tax those of us under this random thresshold, as well as his recent reiteration of this.
• Many bloggers are following Jim Demint’s comments regarding the Obamacare proposal, and I’ll pile on as well.  If the government can’t properly administer a $1 Billion “Cash for Clunkers” program, how in HELL will they ever be able to handle a $1 Trillion health care plan? BTW, $1 Trillion is equal to 10 hundred BILLION dollars, to put it into perspective.
  
• Michelle Malkin KICKED LIB ASS this week on The View.
  
• If you are fortunate enough that your Democrat Rep or Senator will be hosting a Town Hall meeting (mine isn’t), Heritage has 5 questions you may want to ask regarding Obamacare.
  
• Being that the Dems have an untouchable majority in both houses of Congress, why are they having to work so hard getting Obamacare passed? (hint: there are Dems within the party that either realize that it is a disaster, or that it is political suicide to vote in favor of it)
  

Here is a video clip of Barney Frank saying that the “public option” will lead to a single payer system aka socialized medicine.

If you prefer to keep your current health care plan, CALL YOUR CONGRESS PERSON and tell them NO TO OBAMACARE/PUBLIC OPTION.  If you want what’s being proposed, don’t bitch when you have the quality of care that is currently seen in the UK and Canada.

Just remember, the chart below is what you will get with ObamaCare

Putting out the truth of Obamacare. Be afraid; be VERY afraid…

The lies and scare tactics of those trying to ram through socialized medicine are nothing new, as you’ll see in this clip.

Obama and willing accomplices  in Congress are using scare tactics and intimidation to hurriedly ram through their socialized medicine bill.

This needs to be done RIGHT NOW? Why not wait until the citizens of this country have a chance to examine the proposals, and THEN bring it up for a vote? What are they trying to hide from us?

Write and call your Representative and Senators and tell them:

1. You expect them to read the bill FIRST, and

2.  You expect that a provision be placed in the final bill that they would receive the same health care benefits that they are voting on.  If  this proposed law is needed is so good, and is needed this quickly, then they shouldn’t have a problem with legislating the same coverage for themselves.

Our friends at Free Republic have a thread going that documents all the various taxes we pay.

Talk about multiple taxation.  They tax our income, then with what’s left over, when we make purchases, they tax those things too.  The Fair Tax would solve that problem.  But I don’t see that happening with all of the pigs at the trough (in Congress)

Consensus does NOT equal science; the 2 are mutually exclusive.  This nonsense is not about global warming; it’s about more money for the thiefs in government to confiscate and spend so they can get even MORE power.

Professor Joseph Olson of Hemline University School of Law, St. Paul, Minnesota, points out some interesting facts concerning the Presidential election:

Number of States won
by: Democrats: 19    Republicans: 29

Square miles of land won
by: Democrats: 580,000    Republicans: 2,427,000

Population of counties won
by: Democrats: 127 million    Republicans: 143 million

Murder rate per 100,000 residents in counties won
by: Democrats: 13.2   Republicans: 2.1

Professor Olson adds: “In aggregate, the map of the territory Republicans won was mostly the land owned by the taxpaying citizens of the country. Democrat territory mostly encompassed those citizens living in government-owned tenements and living off various forms of government welfare…”

Olson believes the United States  is now somewhere between the “complacency and apathy” phase of Professor Tyler ’s definition of democracy, with some forty percent of the nation’s population already having reached the “governmental dependency” phase.

If Congress grants amnesty and citizenship to twenty million criminal invaders called illegals and they vote, then we can say goodbye to the USA in fewer than five years.

We need to realize just how much is at stake, knowing that apathy is the greatest danger to our freedom.

This is truly prophetic!

…always take along a spare pair of undies.
