“I am proud to support Peggy as she seeks re-election for a third term. She has been a solid steward of the taxpayers’ money, spending money wisely while representing the needs of her
constituents.
But something had changed between the last election and 2008. My friend told of a morning from hell, in which the women were rudely accosted on the street by young male thugs (her word), who called them "c*nts," "whitey whores" and
"stupid bitches." These young males got in their faces and jostled them with angry shoves. My friend said that in all the years she had been doing just this simple patriotic activity, she had never had such a frightening experience.
"That "update" is upon us. The smothering pillows have arrived. Attorney General Holder named Connecticut prosecutor John Durham to conduct an investigation into whether interrogations
by CIA employees warrant a criminal inquiry. It has been shown repeatedly the past 25 years that an office of independent counsel or special prosecutor nearly always puts in motion an Inspector Javert-like hunt for an indictable defendant.
Why do we need a civilian national security force that isIt's clearly not because we feel there is a threat from illegal aliens crossing the border, because anyone who would say that has been deemed a racist.
"just as strong, just as powerful" as the military? Here's why I ask this question: Who are we fighting? Who internally is threatening our security?
"Absent any other clear and convincing evidence justifying the court's decision, it would appear that the
court has indeed taken sides with regard to the issue of religion and has preferred one religious view over another (or the absence of religion). This is impermissible," the documents said.
The new version would allow the president to "declare a cybersecurity emergency" relating to "non-governmental" computer networks and do what's necessary to respond to the
threat. Other sections of the proposal include a federal certification program for "cybersecurity professionals," and a requirement that certain computer systems and networks in the private sector be managed by people who have been awarded that license.
Translation: If your company is deemed "critical," a new set of regulations kick in involving who you can hire, what information you must disclose, and when the government would exercise control over your computers or network.
How do these "tortures" compare with the deaths of more than a dozen American sailors roasted to death in flames or drowned in the sea? The CIA report, also released on Monday, demonstrates, within the limits that secrecy allows, how these very interrogations thwarted serious terrorist plots against our country.
After making this statement, Chris Matthews verbally accosted him and compared him to John Wilkes Booth and other fanatics.Kostric clearly explained that he was not advocating violence, but was practicing his constitutional right to bear arms. The second incident prompted the media to erroneously pronounce the opponents of Obamacare as racist rednecks.
The president and Congress have told Americans that health care needs to be totally overhauled. Democrats believe access to health care is an entitlement . Liberals believe that all Americans should be able to receive their health care for free.
We are told that if Obama Care is passed the cost of health care will be reduced and that the quality of the health care Americans receive will be improved. We all know that Medicare and Social Security are going bankrupt.
Nearly 53% of all Americans receiving either Medicaid, Medicare, VA or SCHIP know the fraud, waste and lack of service are rampant in each of these government run health plans.
By definition ANY government run program is going to be run poorly and defined by politics.
Let's take a look at the Republican plan for REAL health care reform that avoids a trillion dollar price tag :
1. PROVIDE CHOICE FOR ALL INSUREDS. Why is it the democrat party talks about the privacy between a patient and doctor but pushes a health plan that would eliminate choice?
2. INCREASE COMPETITION. Rather than eliminate competition through a public option why not allow health insurance consumers to have the ability to buy their coverage across state lines in the same fashion they buy car insurance?
3. ELIMINATE THE PRACTICE OF DEFENSIVE MEDICINE. Under the current legal system doctors increase the cost of health care by running countless tests to avoid lawsuits.
4. INCREASE PORTABILITY. Since so many receive health benefits through their employer allow employees to take their coverage with them when they change jobs.
5. CONCENTRATE ON WELLNESS. Rather than paying for the high costs of bad lifestyle decisions why not focus on wellness. Why not reward doctors and all health care providers for helping their patients be healthier?
6. CREATE A SELF INSURED POOL TO PROTECT THOSE WITH PRE EXISTING CONDITIONS. So many who lack health care because of pre existing conditions. A self insurance pool would solve this problem.
7. DEVELOP NEW TECHNOLOGIES. American medicine technology leads the world. A free market system will allow America to continue leadership around the world and be an economic generator. Better technology protects patients against privacy issues and decreases fraud and waste.

cause, because we all know that we owe it to him to get this bill done, to make this his legacy, to name it after him so that future generations know that there was somebody who cared about them.”
In other words, if the American people find the “do it for Ted” tactic as distasteful as they did the 2002 Wellstone “memorial,” then chances are that it will backfire politically. And it will cause Americans to believe that Democrats do not have enough faith in the legislation for it to pass on its own merits.
His comments come at a time when the Congressional Budget Office predicts a growth in the 10-year deficit projection to $9 trillion and when Americans are growing increasingly nervous about the massive debt we are incurring. Few buy the president's argument that spending $1 trillion extra will cut the deficit and rein in spending.
