Obama cuts moon travel..

..hmm, why must this be?  umm.. considering space exploration is in its infancy and it would behoove us to be first in space exploration. He wants to turn this over to private firms. ( S )
 
hmm.. maybe he made this move so he could.. extend his own travels around the world with his family and entourage, maybe?  heh heh.  Anyone know the number of people who travel with him..costing millions to taxpayers?  During a recession?  When many a family may not be able to afford gas to take their kids to their doctor?  Afford medications?  Grocery store purchases? 

Healthcare talks behind closed doors, moving forward with ‘Jobs’ issue to distract

15th Annual Health Action Conference Reveals Health Care being dealt with behind closed doors.

Yesterday, the 15th Annual Health Action Conference was covered by C-SPAN.  During the conference, Susan Dentzer, Editor-in-Chief of Health Affairs shared some inside info.  She said that the national conversation has been switched to “jobs” to take our eye off the Health Care issue which is now being carried out behind closed doors. 

Hey, I just thought someone, somewhere would care, with a bigger megaphone than moi, and want to share this little piece of info. Again we witness deception at its best, eh?  This announcement has been brought to you by a Messenger for Transparency.  ;>

Senate permits gov’t to borrow an additional $1.9 Trillion!

Waaay’ll, this announcement takes the guess out of which congressional body is more nuckin’ futz, eh?!? 

“You load sixteen tons, whaddyah get,
Another day older and deeper in debt
Saint Peter don’t you call me cuz I can’t go
I owe my soul to the company store!”*

Soon! Coming to your Neighborhood, too!  Watch Americans shuffle off as indentured servants, then into slavery, to expand the Empire!  O, bring back debtors prisons, too, O, you slave Masters, if only for the 3 squares!  Rock on, gov’t! Rock on!

Q & A

Q:  A question posed by Mastodon on AnswerBag : Why does communism work in theory,but doesn’t in real life?

A:  I venture to guess that it’s because we’re (people) individuals with no minds alike, seeking what will bring comfort and security for self and family.  Oh, and one must factor in “stubbornness”.
