Items Popping Around The Net

http://goo.gl/zhma3r  The President says Rush Limbaugh is responsible for Congress not getting anything done.  Man I wish somebody could prove to me anybody in power is listening to Rush.  Oh sure, there are a few – nary enough to make any difference what so ever!

http://goo.gl/MxxpWC  You are reading the words of someone who has been, shall we say, aware of government intelligence gathering abit more than the Average Joe.  That being said, I am getting more and more concerned with the revelations being dribbled out by the administration as more and more is revealed.  They may as well spill their guts and git it over with doncha think?

http://goo.gl/ZLu1E6  So I ask you boyz and girlz – is the Syrian crisis important or not?  Guess we’d better ask Samantha!

United Parcel Service is the latest ‘large’ company to reveal changes to their health plan directly attributable to The Affordable Care Act.  Interestingly to me, they make no bones about their decision.  Beginning I believe with their next year’s plan, if the spouse of an employee has health care available at their own place of employment, UPS will not allow them on their spousal plan at UPS.  By now, if you, your friends or Dudley Dickwad do not know the real purpose is a single payer system, ya deserve all you get coming to you.  And one more time…Republicans, even though not one voted for this crapola WILL be blamed for the fiasco. As clear as that brick wall coming full force towards us all!

http://goo.gl/QmIFgW  Was the shooting in Oklahoma racial?  Guess not – nothing from Rev. Jackson, The President, the NAACP, or Rev. Sharpton.  Even when Facebook pages and or tweets from the perpetrators talk about racial things, those who are so quick to promote racial tension when a white (and now a umm, a white Hispanic) shoot an African American, TOTAL SILENCE from these oh so important Americans.  Do you expect anything else in this day and age?  It is so very apparent.

For the first time in my life, I think it might just be time to purchase a firearm.  I haven’t told my spouse, but I think it is nigh on time.

This'n That

All the rumbling from Republicans about getting rid of Obama Care is bogus. Once they allowed it to become 'The Law Of The Land', it was a done deal. That will NOT detract from The Affordable Care Act being a dismal failure; it appears that is being born out as each day passes. But is IS law, and as such will have to be dealt with eventually. Even though not one Republican voted for the act in the beginning, Republicans WILL be blamed for all the ongoing problems. This is as clear as a hand in front of your face. The fact President Obama just issues an edict to change existing law just may be changing. In what "I" hope is the first of many cases of The Judicial Branch getting some backbone, the D.C. Court of Appeals has issued an order for the government to follow law as it pertains to Yucca Mountain. http://goo.gl/c6cQns This decision and many more like it need to be made to assert the power of the different branches of government. The Congress has more or less abdicated 'their responsibilities'. This judicial edict gives me abit of hope. If you as an American, can listen to The President's spokesman Jay Carney and have any faith whatsoever regarding what he says, you have your head deep in the sand. He should resign his position! The IRS, and Lois Lerner in particular have done more to put distrust in the minds of the American people than almost any other act and or agency. When one considers just over fifty percent of the American people are FEDERAL tax payers, my advice is the IRS had better clean up its act, and soon!!
