Obama Care

Once again by Rick Neubrander, too good to pass up!

The American Medical Association has weighed in on the new Obama health care proposals.

The Allergists voted to scratch it, but the Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.

The Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.

The Obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a misconception.

Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.

Pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!" while the Pediatricians said, "Oh, Grow up!"

The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the Radiologists could see right through it.

Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing. The Internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the Plastic Surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter....."

The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the Urologists were p*ssed off at the whole idea. The Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas, and the Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.

In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the a--holes in Washington.

More Feelings in the Aftermath...

This one is worth reading... She sums up two years worth of feelings.

Europe celebrates Obama's election, but Israel is not so sure.

There is certainly a lot to process and even more to pray about.

How Should We See Our Future President??

Another perspective on how we should see our future president... This is from the blog, "A Soldier's Perspective". He has some excellent points. In my last post I discussed "supporting our President-Elect". I do support the position and I do pray that it hasn't been sullied through illegal contributions and financial influence from our enemies and that it won't be tarnished through the upcoming administration. I also agree strongly with the author, CJ, that we will not "treat him with the same disrespect and overt contempt that the Democrats and others have given to President Bush during the past eight years - especially the past two!"

Rather than discussing whether or not to support him, I chose to say that we should seek God's will for our nation. From John Quincy Adams: Duty is ours, results are God's. We did our duty. We put forth great effort and it did not happen. I am wondering what all the silver linings will be in this. Certainly one silver lining is that Prop 8, the amendment in California defining marriage as being between "one man and one woman" passed and may have very well passed in large part due to the overwhelming black turnout; they voted 70-30% in favor of its passage. As they say, "so California goes, so goes the rest of the nation". A very similar initiative passed in California in 2000, with 62% of the vote, only to be struck down by the California Supreme Court earlier this year. This year it only passed by 52% of the vote. Had it not passed, I would hate to think of the rest of the nation going that way. So, we are waiting to see what the future brings, we are watching to see what the Democrats do and above all we are praying that the Freedom of Choice Act doesn't ever get passed (he now apparently has called for something else to be the first bill he signs) and that God protects our nation. We are praying that our nation will be the nation our founding fathers fought for, one that guarantees the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Support Our President-Elect and Hope He Succeeds???

Supporting our soon to be President-Elect has come out of the mouths of many lately. I have mixed feelings about this. Just how successful do we want him to be? I would love America to prosper and succeed in all our endeavors, but what does that mean for the long term future of our nation? The way I see it is if he doesn’t do that well, then maybe we can get rid of him in four years rather than eight. Think about it, four years of judicial appointments as opposed to eight. It will take us decades to recover from his judicial appointments.

My suggestion is to pray protection over our nation and that we desire His supreme will in all things regarding our country. Above all, pray that God opens the minds and hearts of people to see the truth. Pray that He opens their eyes to see the things of God and their ears to hear His voice. Pray not only for people to turn to God, but for those that already have accepted Him to seek His will in future elections. This election could have been easily won if Catholics, evangelicals, and others of faith would have voted based on their faith.

Clueless Voters?

Clueless people wouldn't actually vote, would they? Or rather you could call this post: Train a Child in the Way He Should Go...

If you don't train your child properly they could end up like these people. Our seven year old knew these people were ridiculous.

Here's a clip from the Howard Stern radio show from a couple weeks ago.
It purports to show that Obama voters were really voting for him on some basis other than his proposed policies. The interviewees, I'm sure, were cherry-picked for the show, but still its amazing that there are people who are so completely clueless.

How many more people out there are there like these? Let's hope they didn't actually vote...

I rest my case. We need to work very hard to educate people for future elections.

The Governator Weighs In...

From Yahoo News:

'Governator' Schwarzenegger mocks 'skinny' Obama

..."And then we're going to make him do some biceps curls to beef up those scrawny little arms. But if he could only do something about putting some meat on his ideas.

"Senator McCain on the other hand is built like a rock. His character and his views are solid."
"John McCain's character has been tested as no other presidential candidate in the history of this nation," Schwarzenegger said. "He has spent five and a half years as a prisoner of war. He has been tested under torture, under temptation, under deprivation, under isolation."

"He has proven what kind of a man he is. We don't have to wonder if he's ready to lead. We don't have to wonder is he ready to be president of the United States. John McCain has served his country longer in a POW camp than his opponent has served in the United State Senate."

Mr. Obama, you'd BETTER take OUR side...

This is plagiarized from Joy who posted it on "Homeschoolers for Sarah" on teamsarah.org... She said it all! Nothing like using a man's own words to show who he is. So, here he is, the real Obama:

'As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides,' Obama said. 'There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute it.'
-BARACK OBAMA

Taking sides!! If you are the President of the United States, you'd BETTER be taking OUR side!!!
America has spent MORE money abroad to HELP other countries than ANY OTHER country on the FACE OF THE EARTH!!!
How DARE Obama say that our flag represents OPPRESSION!!!
Our Anthem speaks of our History...when WE freed OURSELVES from oppression...Our countrymen DIED so we have the freedom that we enjoy today!! ALWAYS remember, lest history REPEATS itself!!
Americans DO NOT salute our flag and National Anthem because they LIKE war! We salute them because WE UNDERSTAND AND RESPECT the HIGH PRICE that was paid by the shed blood of our countrymen!!
There IS NO SHAME in this!!!

COURAGE!!!

Our praise goes out in the biggest way to pastor Mike Naranjo of the Rock Christian Fellowship in Espanola, NM. He has brought new meaning to the word courage by facing the brute ugliness of abortion head-on. The sign in front of the church shows the stark contrast of what this election is all about. It is about "LIFE, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Besides the church marquee, there is a trailer parked in front of the church showing an aborted baby with the words above it: Obama's healthcare, your taxes. The complaint from the local police is that the baby's genitalia is showing. The question of one of his parishioners, an ex-con living in the church's men's program, "If it is just tissue, then why worry about genitalia?"

Mike Naranjo has adopted 8 children, operates rehabilitation programs for both men and women, and has a small school on the premises. He left his father's party who has had a corrupt stranglehold on Rio Arriba County politics for generations. His followers are plastering Espanola with voter guides from Wallbuilders and National Right to Life. This is a church that doesn't fear man, but honors God.

Obama Would Bankrupt Coal Industry????

Expiring Tax Cuts Will Be Obama’s Tax Increase

Mr. Obama has talked about tax cuts…

The reality is that the tax cuts of 2000 will expire in 2010. The tax cuts that increased the child tax credit from $500 to $1,000. In 2011, a family with two children will see a cost increase of $1,000 JUST on the child tax credit. You would have to find nearly $100/month just to make up that difference. Under the tax cuts of 2000, the lowest tax rate went from 15% to 10% and the middle bracket went from 28% to 15%. Most of us will fall in that 10-15% bracket. If your tax rate goes up by 13%, how will it affect you? I encourage everyone to pull out their tax returns, go to: http://www.heritage.org/research/features/taxcalculator/ and see what you will pay in 2011 BEFORE voting. Mr. Obama has said that he will not renew these tax cuts. We WILL see taxes go up without action.

Truth: Mr. Obama has voted to raise taxes multiple times. The number put out by the McCain campaign of 94 times he voted for either tax increases or against tax cuts is accurate. In Mr. Obama’s defense, some of those votes were multiple votes on the same bill. However, he has voted far too many times for tax increases and against tax cuts to take him seriously when he talks about tax cuts, for those he calls the middle class. The reality is taxes will increase AUTOMATICALLY in 2011. Under a democrat-controlled congress and a potential Obama presidency, would the tax cuts of 2000 be continued? If not, how will you be affected?

Brutal reading, but necessary

The following is plagiarized directly from Dan Phillips' blog:

This is hard to read.

Justin Taylor's blog Between Two Worlds — one of the few I commend in the sidebar — consistently has some of the most exceptional material of any Christian blog. Anyone who tries to dig up good stuff will agree: Justin's skill in finding excellent resources is nothing short of scary.

For months, Justin has done yeoman's work in keeping the abortion issue foremost, and he's kept at it — in spite of being afflicted with some of the most committedly clueless and disruptive meta-trolls in the blogiverse.

Again and again, Justin has linked to excellent resources, admirably banging the drum on the fact that Barack Obama is the most virulently pro-infanticide Presidental candidate ever, and he will instantly drop America's complicity in this abomination to unprecedented Hellish depths.

To underscore this point, today he puts up Ballot Box Blues. Be warned: it is absolutely brutal. (Even so, it is relatively mild compared to the full measure of abortion's horrors.) If you can watch it without tears... well, people have different emotional makeups, I understand that. But I'd fear that something is very wrong, if you can watch this video dry-eyed and unmoved.

And you need to understand: every person who even toys with voting for Obama is considering not only locking these abominations into law for decades to come, not only re-radicalizing abortion laws in our country, not only forcing all Americans to pay for these abominations, but putting judiciary appointments in the hands of a man who's fine with leaving babies who manage to survive abortions squirming, suffering, and dying on hospital tables. (Obama's dodge on this issue has been proven to be a lie.)

That's the heart of the man you are thinking of rewarding with top office, Obama voters.

That's who you want to represent America, and shape the judiciary, Obama voters.

These are not regrettable instances of unintentional, "collateral damage." These are children targeted for murder. And Obama's fine with it.

Now you can't say, "But I didn't know." You know. You vote for Obama, you're fine with it, too.

Obama on Born Alive Infants

I am staunchly pro-life, but I believe that in this day and age Roe v. Wade is may not be overturned for quite some time. Much effort has gone into stopping abortion, but since the Roe v. Wade decision in 1973 an estimated 46 million abortions have been performed. I believe that even those who support abortion would not support letting babies suffer who were born alive following an abortion attempt, nor would they support partial birth abortion. I hope all who read will be appalled by the following information and consider who the true Barrack Obama is.

Senator Obama voted four times against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act in the Illinois State Senate. Furthermore, he stated at a Planned Parenthood event July 17, 2007 that the first thing he would do as President would be to sign the The Freedom of Choice Act introduced by California Senator Barbara Boxer following the US Supreme Court upholding the Partial Birth Abortion Ban. This would allow the brutal Partial Birth Abortion procedure in which a baby, even near or at term, would be delivered feet first then a probe placed into the back of the skull and the brains suctioned out. I believe that nearly everyone would abhor such a procedure and the practice of babies born alive following abortions being left to die. Yet, at least at this point Senator Obama is doing well in the polls. How can it be that someone unable to care "for the least of these" COULD care for me or anyone else? It is hard to imagine he has the country's best interest at heart. Rather his own political ambitions and the times are undoubtedly driving the discussion of health care for all. He proclaims the necessity of providing health care for all, but denies ALL medical care, even pain care and comfort to innocent, helpless babies, certainly "the least".

Please read more about the Born Alive Infant Protection Act.


Perhaps, we can work to eliminate the cruelest of all abortions and permanently ban practices that an overwhelming majority of our nation would never want to see happen. Although I want to see all abortions banned, my prayer is that there are many out there who will think twice when they consider what heart a man must have who won't support live, innocent, kicking, and breathing babies.
