IS HEALTHCARE A RIGHT?

This is just too good. Seriously, folks. These people make it so easy to continue doing what I do. Try this one on for size ..

House Judiciary Chairman John Conyers (a moonbat Democrat) is going to introduce a constitutional amendment that would establish healthcare as a "right" for all Americans.

See what I mean?

He says, "We need a real serious bill and, by the way, the fundamental question, 'Is health care a constitutional right? I mean, do you have a right to health care in the American system of government or not?" He goes on to say, "Well, we believe that people do and we're introducing a constitutional amendment just to make it real clear so that you don't have to infer or assume that that's a given and all that."

This is par for the course for Conyers. He's a fool .. a big government fool. You, however, probably see through this.

Look ... it's this simple. In order for you to receive health care someone else has to either expend time or property. To claim a "right" to health care is to claim a "right" to someone else's time .. that is, a right to a portion of their life: whatever portion of their life it takes for them to either render the health service or produce the medical implement or drug that is being used. Hate to break this to you ... but who in the hell do you think you are to claim a portion of someone else's life as YOURS?

There ... that should settle this "healthcare is a right" thing. Would love to hear Conyer's response.


BARNEY FRANK IS AT IT AGAIN

I have a message for Slobbering Barney Frank: stay out of the housing crisis. You've already caused enough damage for this country. Please butt out ... if I can use the phrase "butt out" with you.

Who am I kidding? Yesterday Barney Frank threatened the banks. Yep he says that if the banks do not volunteer to save more homeowners from foreclosure, Congress is going to force them. All hail the imperial federal government!

Barney Frank is going to revive the legislation that I told you about earlier in the year. This is the bill that would allow bankruptcy judges to modify home loans. He also says that his committee will not consider any legislation to help banks with lending unless there is a "significant increase" in mortgage modifications.

Promise you this ... as soon as bankruptcy judges are allowed to modify the provisions of home loans, including the principal balance due, mortgage interest rates will be on the way up. Way up.

You know ... maybe the real goal here on the part of Slobbering Barney and his Democrat fellow travelers is to nationalize the home mortgage business. Only by making the government the one and only mortgage lender can you make sure that Barney stays happy.


OBAMA SALES PITCH

The media is starting to catch on to Barack Obama's latest sales pitch when it comes to government healthcare: ensure stability and demonize the insurance industry.

Pretty clever, eh?

The Politico writes, "Adding a populist punch to the pitch he first took on the road last week in Cleveland - that for the insured, reform means 'more stability and security' - the president detailed a list of consumer protections that he promised would be in any bill that reaches his desk. In so doing, he cast insurance industry as public enemy-in-chief." There are those words again: stability and security. Americans love the idea of security. They think that they love the idea of freedom. That's a bunch of horsesqueeze. What they really want is for the evil rich to pay their "fair share" so that they can enjoy the "freedom" of "free" government healthcare. That's another one of Obama's buzz words: fairness. At a recent healthcare townhall meeting Obama said, "So what we need, and what we will have when we pass these reforms, are health insurance consumer protections to make sure that those who have insurance are treated fairly and insurance companies are held accountable ... Whether or not you have health insurance right now, the reforms we seek will bring stability and security that you don't have today."

Maybe, just maybe, the people of this country are starting to figure this guy out. They are starting to realize that his administration is dictated more by focus groups and buzz words than actual sound policy.


THE WHITE HOUSE KEGGER

Make no mistake ... this little White House beer party tonight between Obama, the whiney Professor Gates and Sgt. Crowley is all about rehabilitating the image of Barack Obama. He stepped in it big time ... and now he's going to use Gates and Crowley to wash that stuff off his shoes .. .with beer.

Oh .. and the woman who made the 911 call because she saw someone she thought was breaking into a house? Well now she's being called a racist. Yeah ... a racist. So ... here are the new rules. If you think you see someone committing a crime your first task is to determine whether or not that person's color. If they are white, you call 911. If they're black, you simply turn and walk away. Whatever you do, do not call 911. That, of course, would make you a racist. Hard to believe (or maybe it isn't), but this woman is actually getting death threats ... death threats from people who are legally entitled to vote.


THIS STORY IS JUST SICKENING

We have heard a lot about obesity this week, thanks to the revelation that almost 10% of Americans' healthcare spending is due to blubberbutts. Then the Democrats promise that their healthcare bill will fund "the fight" against obesity. Then I read a story like this, from the UK, and I can't help but think, "Coming soon to the United States."

A 25-year-old woman by the name of Laura Ripley was such a lardass that the government considered her disabled. So the taxpayers fork over $15,000 so she can have a weight loss surgery. She loses enough weight to the point where the government no longer considers her disabled. Now Laura Ripley is throwing a fit. Do you know why? Because the government reduced her welfare checks because she is no longer disabled. Now she says that she can't afford healthy food and she is starting to gain weight.

Consider this ... this woman has never held a job in her life. She is a mooch. She is a looter. She is a welfare broodmare. She gets paid by the taxpayers to sit on her fat ass and contribute NOTHING to society. With that, she goes to the National Health Service to get this weight loss surgery. Then after she loses the weight, she complains because now she has less moocher money to pay for her bon bons and tea biscuits. She says, 'I can't afford to buy Weight Watchers crisps and cereal bars any more so I eat Tesco's chocolate bars and packets of Space Invaders crisps, sometimes four of each a day ... People ask why I don't snack on an apple - they're cheap, but emotionally I don't always feel like an apple.'

Not only that, but she blames the government for treating her unfairly and causing her to gain weight again. 'It's heartbreaking that after all my hard work losing this weight someone's come along and ruined it.' That's right. It's not her personal responsibility. It is the government's fault.

I don't know where this originated .. but it's fun. Had to do a little editing.

True Friendship -- None of that Sissy stuff

Are you tired of those sissy 'friendship' poems that always sound good, But never actually come close to reality?

Well, here is a series of promises that actually speak of true friendship.

You will see no cute little smiley faces on this card -- Just the stone cold truth of our great friendship.

1.... When you are sad -- I will help you get drunk and plot revenge against the sorry bastard who made you sad.

2.. When you are blue -- I will try to dislodge whatever is choking you.

3.... When you smile -- I will know you are thinking of something that I would probably want to be involved in.

4.. When you are scared -- I will rag on you about it every chance I get until you're NOT.

5.. When you are worried -- I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse it could be until you quit whining..

6.. When you are confused -- I will try to use only little words.

7.. When you are sick -- Stay the hell away from me until you are well again. I don't want whatever you have...

8.. When you fall -- I will laugh at your clumsy ass, but I'll help you up.

9.. This is my oath.... I pledge it to the end. 'Why?' you may ask; because you are my friend.

Friendship is like wetting your pants, everyone can see it, but only you can feel the true warmth.

The Blue Dog Democrats struck a deal yesterday .. there will not be a vote on the healthcare bill before the August recess.

Did you know that Charlie Rangel is leading the charge for a 5.4% income tax surcharge because it is the "the moral thing to do"?

House Republicans are ready to reveal their healthcare bill today.

Barack Obama is in defense mode when it comes to his economic stimulus packages. Did you know that if it wasn't for him, our country would have plunged into a deep depression?

John Stossel points out that the media are never better at displaying their economic illiteracy than when they report on the minimum wage.

States are scrambling to revamp their tax codes in order to bring in more revenue.

For example, take a look at how Hawaii is going to tax its residents on gross winnings from trips to Vegas rather than just net winnings.

Janet Napolitano is considering the idea of scrapping our color-coded terror alert levels.

Limiting broadcasting rights for radio and television will lead to a significant "democratization" of the media according to ..........

This is a good way to put it: Global warming is the new religion of First World urban elites.

What does the federal government have to do with a state's role in declaring English its official language?

New York City is buying one-way tickets for its homeless people and sending them to ... Georgia!

Lawmakers in Arizona are considering selling their capitol buildings in order to generate revenue.

A sign spelling out "United States" on the Canadian border is being stripped because the government believes it to be an unacceptable security risk.

Could homeschooling eventually be made illegal in the United States like it is in other countries? The teachers unions would just love that.

Nanny state alert. Swimmers at a pool in Great Britain have been told they may only swim across the width of the pool (rather than length-wise) because it makes it easier for lifeguards to ensure their safety.
