Government funded colonoscopies will be the only procedures that are common and widely available without a wait within a few years. Not from Doctors, but from the extra 16000+ IRS Agents the “Health Care” bill will hire.

“How lucky you are! I had someplace to escape to.” In that sentence he told us the entire story. If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth.
Another sad day in the decline of freedom in the world. Freedom is a precious thing that must be protected at all costs, once lost it is difficult to reclaim. This quotation just about says it all:
Not too long ago two friends of mine were talking to a Cuban refugee, a businessman who had escaped from Castro, and in the midst of his story one of my friends turned to the other and said, “We don’t know how lucky we are.” And the Cuban stopped and said, “How lucky you are! I had someplace to escape to.” In that sentence he told us the entire story. If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth.
Ronald Reagan, October 27, 1964
There are two ways to allocate all resources, by free choices between free people or force. The point of the gun is the method of thugs, power-hungry politicians, parasites, and dictators. Will you choose freedom or thuggery?
Good cannot be accomplished by evil means.
Throw out the old flag along with the Constitution…
With the “Health Insurance” vote, it has become clear of the two major parties, there is one party of freedom and one party of totalitarianism. Anyone intellectually honest knows the Constitution prohibits government actions such as this (or the Patriot Act for that matter). To see a document of enumerated, limited powers twisted into the opposite by power-hungry politicians sworn to protect and defend it is disgusting. The Founders are not just spinning in their graves, they have spun so fast they have completely disintegrated. Just like the protections in the Constitution.
So, the United States can now throw out the old flag while Congress throws out the last vestiges of the Constitution. As such, a more modern flag is needed. Several contenders to replace the old “Stars and Stripes” with a more timely flag are shown below.
Which do you prefer? Let us know in the comments!

All this talk about rules…we make em up as we go along-Alcee Hastings
Incoherent, arrogant, Democrat Rep Alcee Hastings (D-FL) states “we make [the rules] up as we go along.” Talk about a crooked politician. Alcee Hastings needs to go. His full quotation:
““I wish that I had been there when Thomas Edison made the remark that I think applies here. ‘They ain’t no rules around here, we’re trying to accomplish something.’ And therefore, when the deal goes down, all of this talk about rules – we make ‘em up as we go along.“
Think about this: Alcee Hastings was impeached by the House and convicted by the Senate for bribery and perjury. And then the people of Palm Beach County elected him to the House of Representatives. Now he acknowledges that he makes up the rules as they go along. So much for an oath to protect and defend the Constitution. So much for the rule of law – this is the rule of whim. Hastings should resign.
And what Edison actually was reported to have said was: There ain’t no rules around here, we’re trying to accomplish something.
He did not say “They ain’t know rules around here.” While Rep Hastings may not like “rules,” he swore to uphold the largest – the Constitution and plainly is either too ignorant or too uninformed to do so.
A benevolent dictator is still a dictator.
A benevolent dictator is still a dictator, no matter the motives. Whether or not he arises “for a good cause” or not, does not make the result any better. A slave with a benevolent master is still a slave. A slave for a “good cause” is still a slave.
No one would argue that the slaves were “extreme” demanding freedom, but even if they were, as Goldwater said, extremism in the defense of liberty is … Continue reading A benevolent dictator is still a dictator.
Caterpillar says health bill would cost $100 million in year one
“if you don’t tie our hands, we will keep stealing.”-Rep. Tom Perriello (D-VA)

Truer words haven’t been spoken in Washington in decades. Thank you Rep Perriello. Now do something about it.
300 million people chained at the neck to each other over health insurance.
Senator Harry Reid is hitting back at ads that claim that Sheikh Mohamed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, ruler of Dubai, is using slave labor at home to build the Gulf city-state. And they state: “Slave labor in Dubai. Union labor in Las Vegas. And both the slave bosses and the union bosses want Harry Reid re-elected. Go figure.”
Slave labor outside the US? That is small potatoes compared to what happens when you can have 300 million people chained at the neck to each other over health insurance. But it leaves Reid and others as the masters over everyone else, with power over life and death. Just want the power-hungry politicians want – dependent parasites.
[Deem and pass is] disingenuous. It would really call into question the credibility of the House.
“It’s disingenuous. It would really call into question the credibility of the House.” Stephen Lynch (D-Mass.) on the “Slaughter solution” of deeming a bill passed without a vote.
“It is absolutely astonishing that Speaker Pelosi would consider advancing a multitrillion-dollar piece of legislation that would completely overhaul one-sixth of our nation’s economy without even holding a vote in the House of Representatives,” U.S. Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.).
