When you get done whining about being oppressed, could one of you lazy victims fetch me a sammich and a beer?

Running the whole world and keeping everyone else down is hard work. I’m exhausted.

(Hat-tip to Janeane Garofolo, who has far more vowels than anyone in America should be allowed to hoard just for a single person’s name!)

It’s the first Black Friday in America since we put a black man in the White House. How do you suppose it might go?

I’m guessing he wants all the black on him. All for himself. None left for profitable ink on ledgers, either government or private. That’s why he turned an economic down-turn into The Greatest Depression.

How else could you explain his insertion of himself and his race into the video he sent to commemorate the greatest accomplishment of Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher?

Every, single thing that has ever been in any way related to, or connected by, blackness is about Obama. Also anything relating to “job creation” and freedom. That’s him too.

Black Friday won’t be so black this year. Because you elected a president that should be on a doctor’s couch instead of the Oval Office. He’s not black. He’s a mulatto bastard with two worthless, selfish parents. That can leave one confused.

My father was taken from me when I was young. Barry Soetoro doesn’t have the luxury I have – I knew my father and he was a great man. Barry never knew the sperm factory that spawned him and countless others. What he does know isn’t very respectable.

So he’s determined to undermine America. When the drunken Kenyan father that abandoned him, the Muslim step-father that adopted him and Karl Marx are all proud of him, he can rest.

I’m holding my breath.

Happy shopping, America! And welcome to Red Friday.

I guess that’s why he has that gig where he lives in a fantasy world and defies the laws of physics.

Somebody, please tell the Obama-Pelosi-Reid cartel that they’re not at the North Pole and there are no elves. In this real world where the rest of us live, it makes no difference how hard you wish, you can’t just choose your own reality. (If that were possible, my wishes would have made some quick, drastic changes on their playground a long time ago.)

Everything the government has ever touched has turned to shit. This is an indisputable fact. Off the top of my head I’ll give you a few examples: Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid – deep breath – shall I continue? USPS, Amtrak, AIG, GM … I could go on. If those feckless retards actually knew how to run a business they would get a real job instead of working part time while living high on your money.

Based on the wonderful track record they have with Medicare and Medicaid – which are both bankrupt and comprise most of the “health care” problem they’re now trying to solve – they’ve decided they should be in charge of ALL health care for EVERYONE.

As with every government program, it starts with wild promises, crazy predictions, dire warnings and a gun to your head.

Indulge me for a moment while I dazzle these manure-shovelers with some math. Government currently accounts for about 53% of all “health care” spending in the US, primarily through Medicare and Medicaid – which are both going broke, while only paying about 80% of what they are billed. (Can you just refuse to pay for 20% of the services you have requested and contractually agreed to pay for? You could if you were the government!)

They also refuse more claims than ANY private insurance company. In fact, if you exclude them and list the next top five, in terms of percentage of claims denied, they decline more than the fourth and fifth ranked private companies combined!

If you want to know why health care costs have “skyrocketed” at multiples of the general inflation rate, trace it back to when that problem began and consider these three points:

1) Congress is populated almost entirely with lawyers. Lawyers have driven up the cost of health care with frivolous lawsuits. (“Have you or someone you love DIED after taking the drug _____? You may be entitled to compensation for your suffering! Call NOW!” If you can afford to advertise for victims, you’re the problem.) Isn’t this why we have the FDA? That’s a separate post. The point on this one is that tort reform – reining in parasites like John Edwards – is not even being considered because a super majority of both parties got to D.C. on money made through exactly that sleazy practice. They chased ambulances all the way to Congress.

2) Health care costs, and – inversely – general quality of relationship with the providers, went batshit crazy at right about the time government got involved with health care. That would be around the 60’s. You’re subsidizing government health care TWICE already. Once with your tax dollars and a second time with higher prices because your well-meaning doctor HAS to charge you about 150% of otherwise going rates to make up for the 20% he’s losing every time he enters a room with a government insurance patient. Those patients are both more numerous and more frequent visitors to his office, by the way.

3) The health insurance companies have enjoyed an exemption from anti-trust laws for 40 years or so. They get that in exchange for accepting more feral gubmint regulation than any other industry. In short, they’re all in bed together. When Oblahhma or that retard running the U.S. House of Representatives tells you that the insurance companies are the devil and they’re gonna rein them in – they’re lying. As usual. They’re simply renegotiating the terms of the incestuous relationship.

Bottom line, if you get the government completely the hell out of health care, this problem will solve itself in the free market. Government is not the solution; it’s the problem. Once again. If ANY of these health care takeover bills are allowed to pass, it won’t end well.

As usual, government creates the problem and then swoops in as the savior that’s going to rescue you. (Great quote, paraphrased – “Government cuts off both your legs, then hands you a crutch and says, ‘Without us, you couldn’t stand at all.’”) They lie every single time and the end goal never changes for them – they want control over you completely until you’re dead. Ideally, the timing and circumstances for that would be their decision too.

Oh, yeah. I didn’t mention the VHA in the list of failures above because I was talking about fiscal irresponsibility. But I spent some time with my father in law a few weeks ago. He has nearly 30 years of service to our country in the Air Force and a number of health problems in his retirement. As he was recounting to me all of his recent medical procedures, I asked him, “Are you doing all this through the VHA?”

“HELL NO! If I had waited on them I would’ve been dead 10 years ago! I’m doin’ all this myself.”

Think about that when you consider ANY government involvement in your health care. Especially when they’re working really hard at making sure they’re the only option.

Barack Hussein Mombasa is not intelligent.  He was an Affirmative Action student and he’s THE VERY FIRST! Affirmative Action president.  If he was intelligent  - and had nothing to hide – we would’ve seen his college transcripts by now.  Don’t ya think The Narcissist in Chief would brag about it if he was smart?  (Let’s forget for now that “the most transparent administration ever” is actually the most opaque President in history.)

Since early in his never-ending campaign for president (Rahm!  Tell him he already won and it’s time to lead!), he’s been making and breaking promises while blaming all of his failures on GWB.  The media has been telling us how “cool” he is.  ”Even-tempered,” they said.

It’s old and the polls have shown that the American people aren’t as stupid as Barry thought they were.  Easy come, easy go.  He ran a thin con, being an amateur.  Professionals are patient.

The DNC, MSM version of Mr Soetoro is half right:  He’s not cool.  He’s cold.

He’s an evil bastard (literally!) that spent his adult life plotting and waiting for his opportunity.  He’s always hated America and I’m pretty sure his wife is a negative influence.  At least they have that in common.

You – or a lot of somebodies like you – elected him on false pretenses and he knew from the beginning that his days were numbered.  That’s why he moved so fast.  He conned you and he has to get as much done as he can before you get wise.

But the American people aren’t as dumb as he thought.  He’s caught in a trap he made himself.

Being a classic narcissist, he can never admit that he’s wrong (see:  Refusal to apologize for racist remarks in the Gates controversy) so he’s demonizing his opponents.

It’s a losing strategy.  For all the warnings about cornered rats, they’re really not all that dangerous.  They can easily be beaten to death with anything weighing over a pound.  That’s why they act so vicious.  (See: Rahm Emanuel and his immediate family, esp, Ezekiel.)

Congratulations, Democrats and independent fools!  Welcome to 1977.   (Those who don’t know history are doomed to…  see Reagan Palin elected?)

A smart man – or a dumb man that means well – could escape this and regain the trust of the American people.  Barry’s a failure all the way around:  He’s too arrogant to recover and too evil to recant.

I have to say, it’s a lot of fun watching him crash and burn.  I never expected it to happen this early or this spectacularly.  It’s like watching fireworks on the 4th of July…

Ohhhh!  Ahhhh!  Byyyye, Baaarryy!  Ooooh!  Aaaah!

Welcome to impotence, Barry.  I would say,”Get comfortable.  You’re going to be here a while.”  But I know you’ll never be comfortable here.  I take pleasure in that.

Yes.  I’m happy to say that Barack Hussein Obama, the 44th president of the united States of America is an utter failure.

It was a rough few months and he did manage to do a lot of damage.  But it’s over now.  He’s a cripple because he was stupid and tried too hard.

Take heart, Barry.  Bill Ayers and ACORN flew too high and their wings melted, too.  They’ll welcome you back into their failures club with open arms.  (The money’s good as long as you don’t care about respect.)

Now can we all get back to reasonable prices on ‘assault rifles’ and stop the hysteria on gun and ammo buying?  I would like to be able to buy a few more decent handguns – without searching the nation – and buy ammo, out of stock on the shelves, like I used to.

I’m no fan of doctors or what they call “science.” It’s an opinion drawn from years of observation that has found them more often wrong than right. I’m most definitely not opposed to doctors and medicine in general. I’m glad they’re there and grateful for them when they’re necessary. That’s not often. Read on if you’ve been conditioned to already disbelieve me.

I haven’t been to a doctor since I was twelve years old, except for a couple of physicals that were required by employers (or more accurately, their insurers). I had my appendix removed when I was twelve. It was about to burst. I was in pain. I’m told I could have died. I’m glad they were there. My second child was planned to be a home delivery with a midwife. She was delivered as an emergency C-section. We protested and held out as long as we could. I was glad the doctors were there.

I’m nearly 39 years old now. I have two children that I haven’t taken to a doctor since they were born. They’re eight and ten years old. They’re healthy, happy and a bit more active than I would prefer.

All of you that run up the cost of “insurance” by visiting the doctor twice a year like clock work and even more often if you happen to get a runny nose, please explain to me why I should pay for your frailty, or more likely, your stupidity.

(If you or your children have legitimate medical problems, I’m not talking about you. That’s what health insurance is for and I would have that if it were still available at a reasonable price. It’s not. Why? Government. Heads up: I once sold life and health insurance for a living. I was licensed! By the state. Isn’t that impressive?)

I have no “health coverage” because it’s a hypochondriac’s system and they’ve made it too expensive. I refuse to pay for something I don’t need. I don’t need daily care from a physician. Oblahhma and his co-horts in the House want to make it worse. They want to invite more hypochondriacs.

The next time you hear the African squatter in the White House say that there are currently 47 million – or whatever number his staff made up that particular day – “without health coverage,” remember me and realize that not only is it a lie on its face, it’s also misrepresenting the situation.

I can afford “health coverage.” There are any number of private insurers that would sell me a “health plan” tomorrow for a price that I can afford.

I’m not interested. I’m not stupid and the cost benefit analysis is so lopsided that it tilts my laptop when I run it in a spreadsheet.

I’m even less interested in the health care salvation that Obamessiah is offering. Just the opposite. He’s using me as a statistic and proposing to help me by further ruining the health care system in this country.

He’s going to help me by removing my choices and making me a criminal. Are you aware that the Obama and House Dems proposed health care reform plan would require you to have health coverage or pay a penalty to the IRS?

Do we want the IRS involved in our health care?

I’ve got a simple solution to this problem of the “broken” health care system in this country – GET THE GOVERNMENT THE FUCK OUT OF IT!

Start by ending the War on Some Drugs and killing the ridiculous sham that is the FDA. If they were doing their alleged job, Michael Jackson would still be alive.

Too soon, too big or too detached for you? My mother-in-law died as a result of the exact same thing, exact same kind of “prescription treatment” that Michael Jackson got. I have loved ones in the same boat right now and it concerns me.

Prescription drugs are far more dangerous than “illicit” drugs, if for no other reason than this one: because they have the patina of safety. They’re not safe. The FDA is a typical government con job. (Do some research into that and see how many people have died because of drugs they approved.. and then how many died because of drugs they explicitly refused to allow in the face of already dying people that begged them.)

The doctor writing that prescription is caught in the middle and the pharmaceutical companies are worse than any Colombian cartel. The crack your doctor prescribes will kill you just like the drugs on the street. They’ll just do it slower so they can milk your death for every last penny.

Nothing that your doctor has ever prescribed you is safer than marijuana and much of it is at least as bad as heroin. A whole lot of it IS imitation, manufactured, chemical heroin. But I’m digressing…

There’s not a single health care problem in this country (or any other problem for that matter) that can’t be traced right back to government getting involved.

They always do it with the message that they’re trying to right a wrong. They’re wrong. Everything they do is wrong. Everything they touch turns to shit and every four years there’s a presidential campaign that amounts to, “If you elect me, I’ll make the shit taste like chocolate. My opponent just wants to feed you more shit that tastes like shit.”

Government is a disease that masquerades as its own cure. Now they want to use the power of “legal” force to – literally – put a gun to our heads and demand that we buy “health care.” In the process they’re going to make it not only illegal, but impossible to get decent medical care when you actually need it.

Kill government before it kills you. Start now. It’s already almost too late.

(I don’t think this is chocolate, Barry. It smells like Nancy Pelosi and tastes really strange.)
