Health Reform Is Spelled F-O-R-C-E - HUMAN EVENTS
Health Reform Is Spelled F-O-R-C-E - HUMAN EVENTS:
Earlier this week, doctors, nurses, and medical techs took to the streets in Albany, N.Y. to protest an edict by the New York Department of Health that all health care workers whether on public payrolls or private practice must be vaccinated for flu and H1N1 swine flu.
Does the federal government have the legal authority to order mandatory vaccinations? For employees and members of the military, probably. Mandatory anthrax vaccination for all members of the U.S. Armed Services has been upheld in federal court. Then again, how would you react to a mandatory order from your employer to get vaccinated? Private employers couldn't do that. You would be protected by laws passed by government. The same big government that wants to order health care workers, whether employees or not, to get vaccinated."

The Obama attack on Talk Radio is Real -- Call to Action - HUMAN EVENTS
They are coming at us with Universal Health Care, Cap and Trade - now killing Talk Radio....if they want to be; and love Venezuela SO much -why the hell don't they move down there and LEAVE US ALONE????
The Obama attack on Talk Radio is Real -- Call to Action - HUMAN EVENTS:
There are more strong signals coming from the Obama Administration reflecting an intent to put Talk Radio out of business -- or at least reshape it to censor critical voices and points of view.
When I launched UnFairAir (www.unfairair.org) some weeks ago, we knew that several U.S. Senators had publicly called for a re-instatement of the 'Fairness Doctrine'; we knew that draft FCC regulations mandating 'localism' and 'diversity of ownership' had been circulating since early 2008; we also knew that the Obama transition team had vetted pro-Fairness Doctrine appointees to the FCC."

Sheriff Joe and the Chinese Illegals - HUMAN EVENTS:
Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County, Arizona, is a tough, no nonsense Old West lawman. For that, Obama and Congress want to shut Sheriff Joe down.
Sheriff Joe's 'offense'? His deputies arrest illegal immigrant law breakers because the illegals have become a local law enforcement nightmare. Over 33% of the inmates in the Maricopa County jail are illegal. More than 53% of violent crimes committed in Maricopa County are committed by illegals."

Don't Muzzle McChrystal - HUMAN EVENTS:
WASHINGTON -- Eight years ago this week, just 25 days after the vicious attacks of 9/11, the U.S. struck back at the Taliban and al-Qaida in Afghanistan. Thirty-three days later, U.S.-supported Northern Alliance troops were in Kabul, and the remnants of al-Qaida and its Taliban hosts were in retreat to Kandahar and mountain redoubts along the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. All of this was preceded by intense diplomacy and a virtually nonstop publicly aired series of presidential announcements, news conferences, speeches, debates and discussions at the White House, from the badly damaged Pentagon, in congressional hearings -- even at the United Nations. In December, three months after the U.S. was attacked, public approval for Operation Enduring Freedom was nearly 90 percent. Today fewer than half of Americans support continued U.S. military operations in Afghanistan. The difference is leadership."

Read the health bill! Not as easy as you think - Yahoo! News
These bills are the most convoluted mish-mash I have ever tried to read! No woder nothing ever works!
Read the health bill! Not as easy as you think - Yahoo! News:
WASHINGTON – Read the bill! It was a rallying cry at angry health care town halls this summer and has evolved into something of a political movement. Many Americans are demanding that lawmakers actually read the comprehensive legislation they've written — or at least make it publicly available — before voting on it.
The push for transparency has become a running side debate in Congress, with lawmakers — often minority Republicans, but some Democrats too — pressing leaders to post measures online for 72 hours before a vote."

Obama wins HEISMAN TROPHY:
President Barack Obama won the Heisman Trophy on Friday, in a surprise pick from New York's Downtown Athletic Club that cited the president's creation of a 'new climate in college football' and his work on establishing a playoff system.

Breaking: NHL cancels season, awards Stanley Cup to Barack Obama (And other news):
(Hockeytown, USA - 10/9/09) In a stunning announcement today, a spokesperson for the NHL Commissioner issued the following short statement:
'We are pleased to present the 2009-2010 Stanley Cup to President Obama for his innate ability to skate around every issue that comes his way. Forwards, backwards or sideways, his skating ability is second to none.'
'We are also seriously considering awarding him the Defenseman of the Year award not only for his backwards skating ability, but also his ability to defend against everything he's done wrong by effectively blaming all ills on someone who hasn't been in office for almost a year. The fact that people actually buy this defensive maneuver is testimony to his skills.'
In other news, the Vatican has confirmed a request by un-named special interest groups to immediately beatify Saint Barack of Chicago bypassing the normal 5 years after death requirement for this honor. The Vatican is resisting this however, amid increased criticism that they're obviously racist for this delay in granting the request.

Has Holder Formed a 'Blog Squad'? | The FOX Nation
They say this isn't true....however, and Administration that can't handle a critical SNL skit.....me thinks where there is smoke - there is fire....
Has Holder Formed a 'Blog Squad'? | The FOX Nation:
Various conservative blogs are talking about the existence of a 'blog squad' at the U.S. Justice Department. The website, the Muffled Oar writes that a blogging unit formed within the Department of Justice to counter websites with posts, articles, and user comments critical of the Obama administration. Matthew Miller Director of Public Affair at the Justice Department told the Washington Times:
'There is no 'blog squad'. There is Tracy [Russo] who handles online media. It’s the policy of the office of public affairs to not post anonymous comments. We have not seen any evidence that anyone does post comments, and if we did have evidence of that, people would no longer work here.'"

Let’s take a look at the president’s first 12 days in the White House according to his public schedule to see what he did to deserve a Nobel Peace Prize:

January 22: Signed Executive Orders: Executive Branch workers to take ethics pledge; re-affirmed Army Field Manual techniques for interrogations; expressed desire to close Gitmo (how’s that working out?)"

American Thinker Blog: White House advisor says Sharia law misunderstood:
A female appointee with Obama's ear on matters of faith and society thinks Sahria is just swell in terms of 'gender justice.' All that awkward stuff about a woman's testimony not equaling a man's is apparently a misunderstanding. On a British TV show, Dalia Mogahed, an appointee to the President's Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships made some remarkable statements:"

American Thinker: Just leave me alone:
As little kids we were taught to share. As we grew up, we allowed the political elite to tell us that we had to share. In other words, in order for them to gain power, they told us that we needed to share what we had with others, and that to make sure that we shared they would oversee the process, and as payment for their oversight they would take a small portion off the top and be allowed to direct us in what we did in our daily lives."

American Thinker: Watching the Constitution Disappear:
The President says the Constitution is defective, and now Senator Harry Reid is preparing the coup de grace.
Once Reid and Obama emerge from their transparent closed-door consultations on how to blend the two competing Senate Health Care bills, Senator Reid has a nifty parlor trick up his sleeve. The normal course of legislative events would be to debate and vote on the bill on the Senate floor, and then send the result to a House-Senate conference committee."

Republicans take aim at Ore. congressman over SUV - Yahoo! News
Hypocrisy Alert! It's OK for YOU and ME to ride bikes through a blizzard to "Save" the Planet...but OUR great leaders do what they want...
Do as I say - not as I Do - has taken on a whole new meaning with these hypocrits!
Republicans take aim at Ore. congressman over SUV - Yahoo! News:
SALEM, Ore. – Republican campaign officials took aim on Thursday at an Oregon congressman who has pushed for tougher vehicle emission standards, touting a YouTube video of the environmentally friendly Democrat driving what they called a gas-guzzling SUV in Washington, D.C.
The video, recorded by a GOP staffer assigned to track Rep. David Wu and distributed by the National Republican Congressional Committee, was an early political fusillade against a six-term Democrat the Republicans believe will finally be vulnerable in next year's midterm elections.
NRCC spokeswoman Joanna Burgos acknowledged that Republicans and Democrats alike drive SUVs. But Wu has boasted of his advocacy of green legislation and has urged stricter emission standards, she said."
