Well here's My take on the health care debate.
Universal health care can probably be a good thing. Other countries have been doing it for years and have had great success. The problem lies with our government and the incredible success rate they have of fucking things up. We have such massive bureaucracy in every damn thing that it takes 2 years to swim through all the bullshit just to get something completed, and by that time, it's usually too late. If you don't believe Me, go "Google" new world trade center and take a look at the tower that's there to replace the old ones. That's right, 8 1/2 years later and there STILL isn't one built! That's not the United States I remember!!! The United States I remember would have built a new tower in 6 months after the bombing as a message of 'FUCK YOU' to the terrorists. But 8 1/2 years later, it's still in bullshit land with all the politicians. Nice work people.
Not to mention the core principles of health care. It really doesn't make sense that companies should profit on other peoples sickness. That alone just doesn't make much sense. So we got the American fat diet getting rich off us selling shit food, then we got the medical companies getting rich selling us pills because of the many consequences of eating the American diet. Hmmmmmm. But, bottom line .. people have to be stupid enough to eat crap on a daily basis to begin with. No one has a gun to anyone's head saying "HERE, eat this triple cheeseburger with bacon."
Or the fact that this country is a wee bit broke. I can understand Obama wanting to take on a major project while He's president, but under the circumstances I think if He just balanced the budget He would be a national hero. We sure as hell don't need any new projects to undergo during this time of massive deficits. If I were Him, I would have made a public speech that said, "I HAD a dream of national health care, but considering the reality of where this country is sitting financially, the plans have unfortunately changed and I must focus on getting rid of the massive debt snowball we are living in .. end of story!" But He's got his ego to fill, so here comes more spending on the way. I know, I know ... it's gonna SAVE money. BULLSHIT!!!! When has the government ever done something to save money?? They are the least financially responsible structure in the history of EVER!!!
Maybe I'm wrong about this outlook .. hell, I HOPE I am! But going by the track record of the results in the past, it seems unlikely.

And on a final note, I am very disappointed in Myself. I used to not care about world happenings. I never cared about what's 'in the news', and now I find Myself looking at news stories once again. It is on the internet, and not on TV, so I must give Myself some credit. I still won't turn on the boob-tube to this day. I admit, this gets worse in the winter months since it's usually minus 20 degrees outside, but that's still no excuse. There was a time not long ago that nuclear missiles could have been flying around the world, but as long as they didn't land on My property, I didn't give a shit. I guess being retired and living in frozen tundra land does have it's disadvantages as I will always find something to keep the mind busy. It's just that caring about what the rest of the world is doing is a terrible choice as people are idiots. I long for the days when all I care about is a little patch of land called the "State Of Les" again.

Obamas' First 100 Days

Well Obama has His first 100 days just about under His belt, and I'd say He's doing a pretty good job. But then all you really have to do to show improvement over Bush is basically have a pulse.
Thank you Barrack for starting to let the world know that we are not going to be the stubborn, arrogant pricks that Bush made us out to be for the last 8 years. The attitude of "We're the best and We don't care what you think" really starts to take it's toll on the world view of us after awhile.
Shame on you Barrack for bailing out every business that doesn't make a buck at taxpayer expense. This world is all about supply and demand, and that goes for cars, banks, and insurance companies. Look back in history and you will see some sad days where major, MAJOR, companies folded up because there was no demand for them anymore. But as one company dies, new ones take over and the cycle of life continues. First of all, it's stupid to revive the life of a company that doesn't have the demand it used to, second of all, it's even MORE stupid to ask the taxpayers to pay for it!
I know there is a lot more things that He's done for the good, and some for the bad, but I really don't keep up on the news that much, so I just pointed out two of them. I'm lucky if I click on a news site once a day, and I don't bother watching TV.
I'd say all in all our new President is doing what the American People want Him to be doing, and that's the important thing. I personally think that anyone who desires to be President of America needs to have their head examined, but that's just My opinion. Who the hell would want the massive headaches of that job, for under 1/2 a million bucks a year? NOT ME!!

I do have a couple of hinters for Obama to help keep the administration on track in the right direction. They are as follows:
1. A suicide financial help line : If you feeling suicidal about the financial mess you got yourself into, the government should set up a hot line number that you could call. Upon calling, the government would send out a 'loaner' gun for you and yours to solve your problems.
2. Make ALL religions start paying taxes!! Can you imagine how much money would be generated if EVERY huge church out there had to start paying property taxes alone!!!?? Think about it!! Look at your personal property and how much YOU pay .. then drive down to your closest church and look at the size of that property! We would definitely start taking a bite out of the deficit if churches were forced to pay taxes like everyone else!
3. Raise taxes!! I hate to say it, but raise the taxes for awhile! We're in 2 wars and have a deficit bigger than anyone can imagine! How the hell can you pay it off without a little pain?? You can't keep printing money from thin air! Stop giving us stimulus refunds and raise the damn taxes for awhile!
4. Bring the troops home. Nooooo .. not the ones in Iraq .. EVERYWHERE!!! Bring every damn troop home. Let the rest of the world worry about the rest of the world. Stop being the damn world police. Chances are all them crazy middle easterners will wipe themselves out all together. And take Israel with them!!! That's right, I hate to say it but that damn country has been a bigger problem than any other in the world. All because of religion!! If someone takes out Israel .. so be it!! Besides, I guess Jesus will come that day so we can finally see if I'm right or wrong!!

Well I'm getting worked up again and it's getting a little long so I'll stop, but I had to force Myself!! Now if you'll excuse Me, I need to worry about the only thing I'm suppose to be worried about .. and that is a little patch of land called the 'State Of Les'.

Todays RBV: Genesis 6:9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
As you know, God killed EVERYONE but Noah and His family because Noah was a 'just man and perfect'. Hmmmmmmmm I recall reading about Noah who got so drunk that He was dancing naked in front of His family one night. Today if you did that, social services would be at your door the next day.
