The Big Health Care Lie

President Barack Obama is a bald faced liar and senior citizens will die thanks to this duplicitous Chicago politician.


Obama said while trying to pass his government takeover of your health care that you would be able to keep your doctor and health care plan.  Like Jon Lovitz of Saturday Night Live, he lied and he knew it.

Last year we heard it over and over, I'm talking of course about President Obama's promise that if you like your plan you can keep it. Well forget it. Today it was discovered that another 700,000 Seniors will have to change plans, because health insurers are shutting down certain types of plans because of legislative changes and looming cuts to federal funding. That is on top of the announcement in August that three million seniors would have to get new providers.

Cigna Corp., Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, several Blue Cross Blue Shield plans and others aren't renewing hundreds of Medicare Advantage plans, which are Medicare policies administered by private insurers. The moves will displace some 700,000 beneficiaries who must find new policies, according to Humana Inc., a large seller of Advantage plans.

For 2011, the Kaiser Family Foundation said there will be a 13% decline in the number of Medicare Advantage plans. "

Sad so Sad

It Works Better Divided

Last week the voters of this country expressed outrage at the policies of a House and Senate that had run amuck. Independent voters, conservative democrants joined Republicans to what was the biggest ouster of politicians since 1948.

Our system seems to work better when we have that check and balance ...Demo President and Republican House and Senate. We saw that during the Reagan years. Great Growth. Then again in the last Clinton years, during the revolution that gave us contract with America.

We need to get back to the basics of spending what we earn. Allowing people to come to the US in  an organized and  orderly way. SSN needs huge reform and the list goes on.

Until some of this gets done it is business as usual and the Chinese and Russians continue to overtake us in GDP..

Wouldn't hurt to learn a second language..never know when you will need it.

Juan Landed On His Feet

For most people when they loose their job it can be devastation for most Americans live paycheck to paycheck. Consider how your attitude towards work would be if you have 2 years of expenses in cash in
a "I might get fired account". The answer is simple, you would think 24/7 YOU are the boss. None the less, loss no matter where or when it happens is a bitter pill to swallow. The older the worse it is. We all seem to want to be attached in some form or fashion. I never allow attachments so for me loss is no big deal. I guess my trade off is the warm fuzzy feeling you get when you attach VS. the devastation of loosing down the road.

Juan Williams was fired this week from NPR for what they thought was off color comments about Muslims.
You can debate this all day. Political motivations, rights of employers with contract workers, decent things to say and do in the work place but at the end of the day Juan had a loss.EGO real bruised as he is a very likable man on national TV. Financially he did better as FOX stepped up and gave him a new contract and his EGO will be eased by the out pouring of affection of so many.

At the end of the day it is still about attachments. If he gets into the warm and fuzzy bed with FOX stay tuned. I don't advocate this HARD distance between people and the forming of relationships.

I just say make sure you have lots of money in the bank and work each day like it is your last! 

Acts Of Desperation

With about 3 weeks left between mid-term elections the REAL ugly faces of the campaigns are starting to show. Across the country reports are starting to show acts of desperation on the part of candidates who are trailing the polls.
In California the Jerry Brown camp has resorted to name calling (She is a whore) referring to Browns political nemesis Meg Whitman. How tragic but the interesting thing here in this election is that feminist have run to Brown despite the inroads that Whitman has made for women in Cali.. and is pro-choice..what more do they want. Oh it must be she is married to a man..that will throw out the NOW endorsement every time.

And then the Witch of Eastwick..give me a break..yes they are still pounding those drums on SNL.
What would those writers do if they didn't have political fatter to pander to.

Looks like so far the house going back to the Republicans is a certain...Senate is so close to call..
But there have been recently some Repubs voting with some Dems and vice versa on issues so close might be a win after all..

Remember though be careful what you wish for...to make a budget balance you have to not only hold revenue steady if you don't want to raise taxes but the almighty slashing of the budget must take place..
Louisiana has gotten more pork over the years than any other state...free spending here with Katrina and now the BP oil spill...all that has helped the Louisiana economy survive sluggish oil prices in this recession...

You just never know!

Health Chickens Come Home To Roost

It is more apparent now than ever before that the Obama Health care will soon turn into the biggest debacle since prohibition.
Today many people are receiving notices that the "Advantage Plans" that third party administrators have for years relied on are now being terminated around the country.
The health care bill mandated that there will be no money as part of cutbacks to fund this any longer. So the speeches that were giving by Obammi on the stump now have really turned into bold face LIES."If you like the plan you have now you will be able to keep it with no added cost"

It is heart breaking to hear people calling on morning talk shows crying as they have gotten these letters
telling of all this confusion. What person at age 75 wants to face added cost and a change in routine of care at such a vulnerable age.

This month Congress adjourned with no budget, to action on tax legislation set to expire, no update on thousands of people not being given money by BP adjuster and most of all a government who lies and has no accountability to the elderly.

Lesson learned...Point taken....

About time TV

America has always been mostly RIGHT of center with family values, economic policy and the prevailing winds. Both East and West Coasts have been and will always be the extreme and it is the South, mid west and the frontier that have provided stability.
This week tow networks NBC and CNN "(Nothing But Crap)(Clinton News Network) Fired both the head people running that organization. Finally there might just be some people over there that get the bias that has been at their organazations. Fox has people in their COMMENTARY that for sure lean right, but each segment has a moderate of left leaning person to balance opinion. Not true at the other networks..

All that people ask is things be "fair and balanced" and you make the call

It seems that they outcry has finally been heard..We shall see!

Extortion and Unions

Unions are made up of good people with different thought processes. It is like going into a field of bulls wearing red. Bulls are good animals. Very much needed to keep the food chain going. They are not hostile
animals. People make bulls mean. They make them do things by changing their behavior that alter who they are.
Union leaders do the same to rank and file members. Result is people who become less productive and mean spirited. They develop a mentality of entitlement. There is a documentary floating around about education done by a liberal west coaster talking about this very subject and the teachers unions negative impact on education. Government unions are running amok. All unions have exhausted their original purpose.
Time for union reform...We produce half of what we did post WWII. Sad but true our manufacturing
stinks and we employ slugs worrying about only breaks, vacations and fully paid health benefits.
With unions it is all about them.

To be able to compete again we need people who think forward about the missions... and not themselves
Imagine if all the military were unions...don't laugh..first "Don't ask..don't tell"  next card carrying privates
who say I am on my break... tell the enemy they will have to wait to be killed..Geesh!
