Healthcare is inching closer

Even though the people don't want it. 59% of those who have an opinion don't want THIS reform. Most people don't argue that we need reform it's just the costly reform we're getting that's the issue. After this we're going to need perpetual reform for the next few decades to clean up this mess. Even with the final vote nearing its ugly head there will be more debate and votes in our future. This isn't over. Ugh.

Remember, congress does makes mistakes.

But, no need to worry. I'm sure Palin will fix it all in 2012.

One problem with passing legislation the people don't want is it doesn't help you get re-elected. Especially when the taxes start NOW and the benefits don't start until way after any second term would begin. In 2012 the people who are un-insured today will still be un-insured and will be wondering where their healthcare is. A "smart" opponent running against our rookie President will use this to their advantage and get a nice giant White House to move into in January 2013.

Why I Want Obamacare to Pass

1. It’s a bad, bad plan.
2. It’ll cost trillions of dollars and fail miserably
3. The republicans would never pass any kind of universal healthcare on their own
4. Due to its failures and cost overruns the democrats will lose control of the congress and white house by 2012
5. Since it’ll already be in place when the republicans take over control again they’ll have no choice but to fix it as going back to the current fiasco of a system won’t be an option
6. By 2016 President Palin will announce that the healthcare system has been fixed just before her successful re-election campaign
7. The American Healthcare plan will be the model for the new healthcare plan announced by the newly elected President of Kenya - Barack Obama

Obama blindly defends arrested professor

No matter what your race or your location you are ALWAYS required to do what a police officer asks you to do.

Harvard Professor Arrested

Even if you are a Professor at Harvard and a friend of Obama's. For Obama to even flash the race card when saying "I don't know, not having been there and not seeing all the facts, what role race played..." is absurd and irresponsible. He's right. He DOESN'T know the facts so SHUT UP UNTIL YOU DO!. You are NOT al sharpton or jesse jackson so don't spew race hate when you don't know what you're talking about yet.

Isn't Obama supposed to be a lawyer? Aren't lawyers not supposed to ask questions they don't already know the answer to? Doesn't that apply to statements too?

It's also irresponsible for the President to spew the generic line "...that there's a long history in this country of African-Americans and Latinos being stopped by law enforcement disproportionately." Aren't we SUPPOSED to be beyond race now by the very fact that his butt is in the Oval Office? That's what hollywood and the mainstream Sarah Palin hating media promised us anyway.

If we truly are passed race then why would the supposedly highly educated Professor Gates respond with "Why, because I'm a black man in America?" when asked to step outside when officer Sgt. James Crowley asked him to speak with him? Why would that be your first question?

But, where are the facts in this case? Clearly not on CNN (a.k.a. the Clinton News Network). They have lots of articles on the "outrage" about this incident but I can't find ONE about what actually happened. The police had to be there for a reason. How about CNN reporting some facts so Obama can have a clue before he starts mouthing off without a teleprompter again? Who does he think he is...Joey Biden?

EXPERIENCE (Is it Important?)

There has been a lot of TV and Internet advertisements from both presidential candidates about their competency to be President based on their experience. Senator McCain has been in the Senate for over 25 years while Senator Obama has been in the Senate for about 3 years and two of those he has spent running for President.

Is Experience really that important? Well to put this question into perspective lets up look at this in a much lower level. When a working class person, such as myself, begins looking for a job, the first thing on the potential Employer’s list of requirements is how much and what kind of Experience do you bring to the table. Most of the job openings that I have looked at require at least 5 to 7 years of Experience. That Experience must also be geared toward the type of work that will be performed. A college professor with 20 years of Experience teaching Family Law does not qualify him to be a Criminal Defense Lawyer.

A college student who just graduated with an MBA does not qualify that person to be a CEO of a major corporation. Anyone who is at the top or who is on their way to the top of any company had to start at the bottom first.

So…why are many Americans so willing to put a Junior Senator from Illinois with zero experience into the White House. Senator Obama has never run a business, never governed a city, big or small, never had to work with unions and never had to work with both parties to come to a compromise on a piece of legislation. Only Mayors and Governors have to do it all. Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin has done all of this and much more. She is more qualified to be President than the Presidential candidates themselves.

Again, is Experience Important? Every job that I have applied for requires it. Every hiring manager that I have every talked to questioned me about my experience. Every board of directors for every corporation in America demands it before hiring a CEO and every American who holds stock for any corporation in America would be appalled if they found out that the board members had zero Experience in running a corporation.

Okay, America, here is the choice everyone who votes must make. Vote for the candidate with the Experience to run America or vote for the candidate of Change, Senator Obama with no Experience.

The way I see it, if Senator Obama becomes the next President and your job is lost, when you are talking to a hiring manager and that person asks you about your Experience in that particular field and you say that you don’t have any, tell that manager that you should be hired anyway because after all, you did vote for Senator Obama and he had no Experience either.

Biden Doesn't Know What's in his Own Plan

Democrats and the mainstream media have accused Sarah Palin of not know what the “Bush Doctrine” is. Are they now going to attack Joe Biden for not knowing what’s in the Obama-Biden energy plan?

Today in Ohio, when asked about clean coal technology plants in America, Joe Biden responded with "No coal plants here in America," he said. "Build them, if they're going to build them, over there (China). Make them clean. We’re not supporting clean coal," he said of himself and Obama.

Hmmm, Joe Biden doesn’t seem to know what’s in the Obama-Biden energy plan. According to the Obama-Biden energy plan they support "clean coal" technology and want to support financially five coal plants that use carbon capture and sequestration technology.

So, if they want to support five coal plants but they won’t be in America where will they be? More outsourcing? Is the Obama-Biden plan going to ship more jobs out of America or does Joe Biden just not know what he’s talking about?

Palin Power

Wow, a lot is being made of a speech writer helping write Sarah Palin’s speech last night. Is it because she’s a woman that they’re picking on her? The men don’t write 100% of their own speeches either. Could ANY speech writer do all the research necessary to include all her personal items and accomplishments WITHOUT her being involved? No way.

Does anybody think that any of these politicians write their own speeches? It’s extremely rare. I think it was Chris Mathews (the news guy) who was a speech writer for both Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton. Even Jerry Lewis helped JFK with his speeches during JFK’s presidential run. JFK would send him speeches and ask Jerry Lewis to make them more entertaining.

Sarah Palin's speech was obviously exceptionally written, genuinely honest and superbly delivered or they’d have more to pick on than just WHO wrote it.
