Telstra boss Sol Trujillo goes home By Rachel Hewitt
AFTER nearly four years of very public jousting as the boss of Telstra, Sol Trujillo has left Australia quietly and gone home to San Diego.
http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,25509173-3122,00.html
The American was expected to leave the job on June 30 but went on Thursday, making way for his successor David Thodey to take the helm of Australia‘s biggest telco.
Mr Trujillo goes with $3 million in severance pay and share options.
His financial bonus for the year will be decided in August. He will have received about $35 million for his three years and 10 months in the job.
Mr Thodey and new chairman Catherine Livingstone are expected to end the era of confrontation that pitted Mr Trujillo and former chairman Donald McGauchie against the Federal Government.
In the past year, Mr Trujillo, 57, saw Telstra’s share price pummelled to record lows and the telco excluded from the Federal Government’s original tender for a National Broadband Network.
Mr Trujillo, who holds a seat on the board of US retailer Target, has not revealed his future plans, though he is scheduled to speak about bandwidth economics at a Californian conference today.
In announcing his resignation in February, Mr Trujillo said: “I have elderly parents, I have children, I have all kinds of reconnecting to do and, to be frank, I need to lose about eight kilos too.”
Telstra scrip closed 2c off at $3.18.

“The state of Hawaii provided a copy of Obama’s birth certificate but refused to release the original because of privacy reasons, according to news reports.”
Can’t these morons get anything straight? Hawaii never said they gave anybody a copy of the COLB and the forgery that was posted was NOT a birth certificate!!!!!!
“There’s nothing in the Constitution about what you do to show that you met the requirements and there is nothing in federal law,” Goodlatte said recently.
Geeez Loueeeze…I’d rather have a free bottle in front of me than a free frontal labotomy. Is there anyone competent left in D.C.? Is there not a certification process? Is there not a Congress or a Judiciary that is designed to check and enforce? Does not every citizen have standing when it comes to harm being done by the violation of the highest law in the land? All the mechanisms are in place if you don’t have usurping criminals ignoring the law. Wake up people!!!! It is now up to US (that’s you and me, We The People) that are duty bound to hold these lying traitorous thieves accountable because the politicians (as opposed to statesmen) are either criminals and/or incompetent!!!!
BTW: Welcome back Troy, you loony racist, you. Just wanted to make you feel at home.

I’m hoping this wasn’t just a drive by. You’ve been missed!
May 21, 2009 at 5:08 am
Patty,
To answer your question…I need to be cloned. Boy would that make a few people really unhappy. Actually, if I were cloned, I would just create that much more work for myselves. Let’s see…I have managed to get at least 2 weeks further behind since I last wrote to you. I’ve embarraced myself with how out of shape I am. My wife’s been begging me for 2…no make that 3 weeks to straighten up my home office. I’ve learned that the national freedom movement leadership is full of over-inflated egos across the board. Both sides of the battle seem to be successfully self destructing (God at work). No doubt the opposition is 10 times better organized than we are. We are running out of time. I’m getting a hell of an education and trying to figure out how best to put it to use. The contacts I’ve made since becoming a proud member of Rose’s Gang is boggling my mind and consuming much of my productive time.
So what else would you like to know. How the heck are you?

How could you have possibly known this?….I had tendonitis so bad in my right elbow that I could hardly fish at all.

Troy,
Did you hear about the one armed fisherman? He caught a fish this big (holding up only one hand). So I guess I’m not psychic after all.
Sorry to hear about your tendonitis. Boy, did my flippancy just kick in…I bestl refrain from any comment.

Hey Again– Nope, no drive-by’s. I had to go make bread– literally. I’ve really missed you guys. My heart breaks over Cindy. I am really, really, sorry. I left a post over at the RIP site, but just want to say to my friends here–I’m sorry I haven’t been here. I’ll try to stop in more often and stay longer.
I’m taking a team to Kenya in September to build a church/school/clinic and I’m getting ready to go over this summer and get some wells dug for a Maasai tribe — God willing and the drill bits go through–sort of thing. But, it takes all of my time. My family feels like I’m sort of drive by to them too. It really takes 17 hours a day right now.
Just like hanging with your best buds, when I come here, I don’t want to leave! Also, I have had to be very careful– not to seem paranoid, but I’ve had a lot of stuff happen since I became “vocal about the POTUS” that never had before. Not to say they are connected, but just very fishy! It made me “aware” at the very least.
May 21, 2009 at 11:26 am
Ten– Just take a deep breath– in and out. Don’t know if this will help with your office bit or not— but the way I get “jobs” like that done is to set a timer, I can only work for 10 minutes on it, and when the timer goes off– I go on to whatever else I was doing. I find I get a lot done in that 10 minutes, and it is easier for me to get 10 minutes to work on a job than a whole day. I may do that three or four times a day. Just like taking a break. Sometimes it’s all I need to get me started on a job I’ve really just been “putting off” because I knew that it would be a two or three hour job and didn’t want to do it. OK that’s the end of Susie’s helpful hints!
Since I think everyone else is sleeping– I’m on east coast– I’ll go get coffee and try to check back later. Meeting with well driller for Kenya today, so I’m on his schedule. Bbl

HAPPENING NOW: Cheney defends security policies
Full text of Cheney speech
http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2009/05/21/happening-now-cheney-defends-security-policies/
“The administration has found that it’s easy to receive applause in Europe for closing Guantanamo. But it’s tricky to come up with an alternative that will serve the interests of justice and America’s national security,” said Cheney.
“It is recklessness cloaked in righteousness and would make the American people less safe,” said Cheney, long viewed as a leading hawk in the Bush administration.
…a speech at the American Enterprise Institute on the same day Obama defended his approach to terrorism, Cheney said Obama’s decision to ban tough tactics “is unwise in the extreme.”

Christopher Hitchens on Dick Cheney
http://hughhewitt.townhall.com/talkradio/transcripts/Transcript.aspx?ContentGuid=580d66e2-d112-46ef-a250-9479fb58b8d0
HH: But with a minute left, do you welcome or do you oppose the return to the lists of Richard Cheney?
CH: Oh, I mean, I think it’s a very good thing to see someone put up such a fight on what is obviously to him a matter of principle.
And it’s clearly had an unnerving effect on many people.
You might look at a column Richard Cohen wrote for the Washington Post last week saying all right, Cheney’s challenge must be met.
Let’s see these memos that he says prove him right.
Maybe, maybe this did help us against our enemies. I mean, that’s the kind of argument one wants to be having.
(Sounds reasonable.)

Here’s one doctor’s response to Hugh Hewitt’s wonderings about where the doctors are as the “government option”/single payer/Obama-Pelosi-Reid rationing approaches.
An Answer to Hugh Hewitt
http://docsontheweb.blogspot.com/2009/05/answer-to-hugh-hewitt.html
***
America will not settle for the status quo.
If the right frames the debate that way, they will lose, we will all lose.
Single-payer is not on the table.
And so the left’s mantra is now “public” option (government option).
Drive the argument home that “public” option will lead inevitably to single-payer.
That’s a good argument.
Hugh Hewitt didn’t like the original “Gang of 14.”
But I hope he realizes now that it’s the moderates in both houses who will decide this thing.
But keep your eye on the ball, on the nitty gritty of who is framing this debate and what they’re saying.
Right now that would be Olympia Snowe and Ben Nelson and, yes, Arlen Specter.
And what they’re espousing now is delaying any “public” option for years and pulling that “trigger” ONLY IF the private sector doesn’t step up to the plate.
I don’t see how you argue with that.
May 21, 2009 at 6:00 pm
They are calling this the “fallback” option
US Sen Baucus: Public Health Plan ‘Fallback’ Possible
http://www.easybourse.com/bourse-actualite/marches/us-sen-baucus-public-health-plan-fallback-possible-672224
Because of Baucus’ propensity for using the “on the table” expression, it is unclear what the actual prospects are for the fallback plan.
Still, Baucus has notably declared some things “off the table,” such as a government-run “single payer” health-care plan.
The proposed public plan option – which would supplement, but not replace private insurers – has become a partisan point of contention in the debate over how to cover the more than 40 million Americans who currently do not have health insurance.
While most Democrats say such a plan would help draw down costs within the health-care sector and give private insurers real competition, Republicans express fear that it would drive the private insurers out of the market altogether.
Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine, has reportedly held meetings on the fallback option, which could bridge the gap between lawmakers on the issue.
***
A similar fallback mechanism was included in the legislation that created Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage, and a public plan was never created in that instance because private plans emerged to offer the drug coverage.
(BTW, Bush never got any credit for this.)
***
Baucus put “very high” odds on reaching bipartisan agreement on the legislation, saying he is “75% to 80% positive” that he can bring some Republicans along.
He said his Republican counterpart on the Finance panel, Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, is “hanging in there” and “working hard” on an agreement.
Baucus said he expected that a final version of the legislation would include some basic elements, including a ban on excluding people from coverage who have pre-existing medical conditions and a statutory minimum benefits package that could be offered in a small-group and individual health insurance “exchange.”
Baucus also said that expanded health coverage would not apply to undocumented aliens, saying it would be “too politically explosive” to do so.

Tide turns against the Taliban
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/south_asia/8059900.stm
In Pakistan there has been a real change in the past few months – the public has had enough of the Taliban and the army has gone to war. As a result well over one million people have been forced to flee their homes.
“ They say, ‘eliminate them, clear up our area, for God’s sake’, that is the message that is coming from the local people ”

Pakistan, India and U.S. begin sharing intelligence
http://www.paktribune.com/news/index.php?id=215125
The U.S. also sometimes brings intelligence on Pakistan’s efforts to combat militants to India’s attention, with Pakistan’s consent, this person said.
Examples include showing Indian officials evidence of progress against militants in the Pakistani regions of Bajaur, Swat, and Buner.
***
U.S. intelligence officers have been able to track the whereabouts of key Pakistani Taliban leaders, such as Baitullah Mehsud, accused of orchestrating the murder of former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto, said this person.
***
Sufi Muhammad and Maulana Qazi Fazlullah, leaders of a militant group aligned with Mr. Mehsud, are also tracked, according to the person familiar with the efforts.
Mr. Muhammad brokered the now-defunct deal between the Pakistani government and the Taliban to enforce Islamic Sharia law in the Swat region in Pakistan.
The government of Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari is hoping that Congress’s victory can also provide the Indian government with the political cover to move one or two divisions away from the Pakistan border in coming months, according to an official briefed on the diplomacy.
But Indian officials say they aren’t ready to do so.
An Indian government official said New Delhi has documented an escalation of cross-border infiltrations by Pakistani militants into Kashmir.

Soy Protein Used in “Natural” Foods Bathed in Toxic Solvent Hexane
http://www.naturalnews.com/026303.html
Virtually all “protein bars” on the market today are made with soy protein.
Many infant formula products are also made with soy protein, and thousands of vegetarian products (veggie burgers, veggie cheese, “natural” food bars, etc.) are made with soy protein.
That soy protein is almost always described as safe and “natural” by the companies using it.
But there’s a dirty little secret the soy product industry doesn’t want you to know:
Much of the “natural” soy protein used in foods today is bathed in a toxic, explosive chemical solvent known as hexane.
May 21, 2009 at 7:54 pm

“Why’d he” never release that whitey tape?!
“About That Whitey Tape”
By Larry Johnson on May 17, 2009 at 12:02 AM
http://www.noquarterusa.net/blog/2009/05/17/about-that-whitey-tape/
Since an attention-starved “journalist” named David Wiegel wote an article Saturday that memorializes my post a year ago on the so-called “whitey tape” — purported to show Michelle Obama using the term “whitey” — I’ve decided to re-post the two articles I wrote last year to refute any and all rumors.
http://washingtonindependent.com/43284/happy-whitey-tape-eve
(See more articles posted today, via Memeorandum.com.)
http://www.memeorandum.com/090516/p35#a090516p35
Why was the tape never revealed and used?
One theory is that the hardline conservatives in possession of the tape did not want John McCain to win, a plausible theory given the hard right’s reluctance in general to aid McCain’s campaign.
So, without further ado, here are my articles written last year, in full, and with links to the original posts and comments:
May 21, 2009 at 8:34 pm

For old time’s sake.
I had an interesting conversation with Interested Bystander earlier this evening.
He told me about this thread and comment:
Saturday, May 16, 2009 at 12:29 am
http://obambi.wordpress.com/2009/05/12/stophatelovestosuckcock/#comment-32382
And also this thread:
http://theregulator.net/?p=4129
Where the following claim is made:
“Larry’s *ART* is Interested Bystander.”
Interested Bystander says this:“Oh yeah, and the fact that Pete posted my real name on the regulator trying to intimidate me.”
We were in a chat room so I didn’t get the entire story.
But I think IB was saying that some at the cesspool made bogus claims about him and that he proved them wrong.
No, say it isn’t so! (sarc)
I’m sure there’s more to the story, but I don’t know where to look.
Good night, good people!

“Abortion and the States”
http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2007/04/abortion_and_th.html
19 Apr 2007 03:42 pm
… there aren’t very many Senators (particularly with Rick Santorum gone!) who would relish a knock-down drag-out abortion battle, and that both national parties would have a vested interest in punting things to the states whenever possible, at least in the short term. Then again, I’m not particularly invested in whether the states or Congress make abortion law; I just the people making the laws to be subject to democratic pressures of some kind, for all the reasons Hadley Arkes lays out here:
. . . step by step, the public would get used to these cardinal notions: that the freedom to order abortions, like any other kind of freedom, may be subject to plausible restrictions; that it is legitimate for legislatures to enact those restrictions; and that it is, in fact, possible for ordinary folk, with ordinary language, to deliberate about the grounds on which abortions could be said to be justified or unjustified.
That Ezra Klein calls this description of a post-Roe world “scary for all the obvious reasons” only makes me all the more eager to see it become a reality.

Here is an article just posted at America’s Right
http://www.americasright.com/2009/05/preventive-detention-plan.html
It’s funny how ONE SINGLE VIDEO of a FEMA camp was debunked as a railcar repair facility and now, by association, all of the hundreds of FEMA camps have been debunked…..The ones that accept this are of the same exact mindset as the folks that say, “Obama put his birth certificate online and it says he was born in Hawaii, so he is a natural born citizen.”…..(BRB, I have to go throw up…Ok, I’m back now)
Does everyone remember that we were all recently defined and classified by Napolitano/Homeland Security as rightwing extremists and potential terrorists?….You haven’t already forgotten have you?….Just because the insane bitch apologized doesn’t mean that their views have changed one iota.
As you read this article from America’s Right, think about your new classification as a potential domestic terrorist and think about all of the state of the art, empty FEMA camps.
Here is a little snippet of what Oblowme has on his mind:
President Obama told human rights advocates at the White House on Wednesday that he was mulling the need for a “preventive detention” system that would establish a legal basis for the United States to incarcerate terrorism suspects who are deemed a threat to national security but cannot be tried, two participants in the private session said.
Do you need to read it again more slowly and carefully?….Nah, I didn’t think so….I’m sure that everyone picked up on the key words such as, “preventitive”, “legal”, “suspects”, “cannot”.
All I can say, in the words of Monty Python’s Flying Circus, is “Nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more, say no more”.

An Irish Joke for a Certain Texan
A Texan walks into a pub in Ireland and clears his voice to the crowd of drinkers. He says, “I hear you Irish are a bunch of hard drinkers. I’ll give $500 American dollars to anybody in here who can drink 10 pints of Guinness back-to-back.”
The room is quiet, and no one takes up the Texan’s offer. One man even leaves.
Thirty minutes later the same gentleman who left shows back up and taps the Texan on the shoulder. “Is your bet still good?” asks the Irishman.
The Texan says yes and asks the bartender to line up 10 pints of Guinness. Immediately the Irishman tears into all 10 of the pint glasses, drinking them all back-to-back.
The other pub patrons cheer as the Texan sits in amazement. The Texan gives the Irishman the $500 and says, “If ya don’t mind me askin’, where did you go for that 30 minutes you were gone?”
The Irishman replies, “Oh… I had to go to the pub down the street to see if I could do it first.”

“If she’s accusing an agency of government that they are – that they have misbehaved and deceived Congress, then I think it’s her obligation to prove it. And if she needs to have those [CIA] documents to prove it, that’s fine with me,” McCain said. “We have to be careful about the morale, therefore the effectiveness, of the CIA and other intelligence agencies because we are in this struggle, as was just proven yesterday in New York City.

EXCERPT
HH: The backdrop to the speech today, Mark Steyn, bad timing for the President, of course, the arrest of four would-be bombers of synagogues and shooter-down of airlines and airplanes in New York.
And I don’t believe they converted to radical Islam in prison because of waterboarding being conducted on the jihadists.
MS: No, they didn’t, and in fact if he wanted to make a serious speech, he would have addressed the issue of Islamic recruitment and conversion in American and other Western prisons, which is really the same thing happened to Richard Reid, the shoe bomber.
It’s actually by now a tried and tested formula for recruits.
It’s a far more effective formula than running around the Middle East saying oh, have you seen, you know, the Americans are waterboarding some of us.
This is actually an effective recruiting tool, what they’re doing in Western prisons. It’s sad to see someone with such a September 10th mentality trotting out these old lines.
HH: All right, this will be a watershed speech, and people are going to be reviewing this for years to come, and I think it was a huge mistake on his part.

EXCERPT
HH: Now Governor, I want to switch subjects on you with the last three minutes here in this segment, because the push to single payer is underway in Washington, D.C.
You oversaw a health care reform in Massachusetts that’s had a couple of years in the field now.
How is what the Democrats are proposing in D.C. different from what you did, because a lot of them are saying oh, this is just the Romney plan on steroids.
MR: Well, it’s probably the steroids that didn’t help it very much.
There are two key differences.
One, in the Democrats’ plan, they put a mandate on businesses to pay or play, so to speak, to basically pay for insurance of all their employees. That was not in our plan.
And two, something I vehemently object to, they’re establishing a government insurance product, if you will, a government insurance company that will begin to sell insurance products to American citizens.
Let me tell you, that is letting the camel’s nose under the tent. They are looking forward to having a time when government is providing the health insurance for all of Americans.
That is the wrong way to go. Government-managed health care, government-managed insurance for health care is not the answer.
Helping people get private insurance is what we did. That works, it does not require the government to get into this business for us to get people insured.

This Week at Nasa
May 22, 2009 at 5:21 pm
This is where the health care debate is headed, which is why the Daily Kooks are so upset about it.
UPDATED: We’ve Got To Stop The Public Option “Trigger”
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2009/5/22/734311/-Weve-Got-To-Stop-The-Public-Option-Trigger
Democracy For America sent out a mass e-mail asking us for our help to fight the latest idiocy out of the so-called “moderates” in the Senate like Sens. Olympia Snowe, Ben Nelson, and Evan Bayh.
Here’s what Sen. Ben Nelson said about using the public option as a “trigger” in SEVEN YEARS from NOW if private insurance fails to offer comprehensive and affordable coverage.
Senator Ben Nelson, a Nebraska Democrat and another member of the finance committee, said he favors the idea of a “trigger” that would expand government-provided health insurance only if other new attempts at expanding health-care coverage through the private sector appear inadequate. Nelson said he is wary of a big expansion of the government’s role in providing care.
The public option, he said, should be seen as a “backup.”
(Of course, what the Kooks fail to mention is that just such a “trigger” was a part of the hated Bush’s prescription plan for the elderly. Turns out that trigger never needed to be pulled because private insurers did, in fact, step up to the plate.)
Oh, and the Kooks are going after Senator Wyden, too!
UPDATE: Just got a major news alert. Remember those unions and how I mentioned they’re going to bat for us by pressing Senator Wyden to back off his so-called health care plan without the public option?
Well, Senator Wyden is fighting back against our allies here. So much for a so-called progressive Democrat. The unions need our help here to respond to his lies below:
“First he was attacked by insurance company lobbyists,” says a female narrator in the ad. “Now a couple of D.C. labor unions are attacking his plan, falsely claiming it would tax your healthcare.”
“It’s not true — Wyden’s plan gives middle-class taxpayers a break and saves them about 300 bucks a year,” says the narrator.
“Employers would still help pay for coverage, but we’d make our own choices. If you like the coverage you have, you can keep it or choose another plan — and every American is finally covered for life, even if they change jobs or get laid off.”
“When you’ve got a healthcare plan that is being attacked by insurance lobbyists and some D.C. labor unions, you must be doing something right,” says the narrator.
Wyden concludes the spot himself by announcing: “I’m Sen. Ron Wyden and I approve this ad because I won’t let D.C. lobbyists stop healthcare reform again — not this time.”
Let me be clear on this. Senator Wyden does NOT want a public option in the final health care reform bill. The unions know this. It’s why they’re going after him.

Baitullah Mehsud fears offensive as key aide arrested
http://www.samaylive.com/news/baitullah-mehsud-fears-offensive-as-key-aide-arrested/628899.html
Islamabad:
In a respite to Pakistan and all terror condemning nations, Taliban tribal leader Baitullah Mehud is now running helter-skelter in a bid to avoid any latest offensive against him.
As Pakistan has arrested a key aide of the guerilla leader, Baitullah’s arrest has become likely. The arrested confidante is a long time partner of Baitullah Mehsud and is believed to know his all possible hideouts and modus operandi.
Reports say that the arrested militant has been assisting Baitullah since childhood and his arrest has made the militia leader to run for his life.
Baitullah, who is the prime accused in the killing of former prime minister late Benazir Bhutto is apprehensive that the arrest of his aide may come as a deadly offensive against him by the Pakistani army.

Linda Starr posted this comment – not sure what to make of that!
CaptainAstro | May 20, 2009 6:45 PM |
The best part is, Barry’s Bots posted Lisa’s (Liberi) info on their board WEEKS before anyone knew about it.
(What board would that be?)
Phil would never know that, because he probably doesn’t read message boards.
Lisa wouldn’t admit it, because (in my opinion) I think the Bots blackmailed her into doing what they say, or they would expose her.
Then, they took over Phil’s board.
(Sounds nuts to me!)
Once Linda found out about what was posted, Lisa probably turned it on Linda to prevent the truth about the Bots taking over Phil’s board and exposing her background.
(Even nuttier!)
(Again, my opinion) it’s opinion, but it seems to fit in my mind.
(Well, who am I to pass judgment on what might fit into this person’s mind?)
Now unless I missed some huge part of this whole story, this is what seems to be the REAL truth, to me.
(My guess is you did miss some huge part, so why would Linda Starr post this?)
I guess we’ll see when the Court case is heard.

Well I can personally say that BOTH of my credit cards raised their interest rates on me from 9% to 19% and the one I unfortunately had at 19% went to 23%. I closed both accounts immediately so I could retain the current rates and get them paid off as fast as I can. This is what these credit card companies are doing before the SH*T hits the fan with Bambi’s law. So, if everyone does this and pays off their credit card debt, what will these lovely companies do for money them – hmmmmmm????????

Perhaps, if Guantanamo Bay has such a taint but otherwise fulfills its purpose, this administration can merely rename it, much like it changed “Global War on Terror” to “Overseas Contingency Operation” or even “terrorism” itself to “man-caused disaster.” I propose, in that vein, that the new name for the terrorist detainee facility in Guantanamo Bay be: “The Happy Land of the Bearded, Questionable Slappywags.”

(I love Elton John!)
But you conservatives hate homos like him (he’s also a liberal) ,
(I’m not even sure how to define a conservative any longer. Let’s see I love George W Bush like a brother, I voted for Hillary and then John McCain, I believe Roe v Wade should be overturned and then I believe legislatures should decide what restrictions should be placed on abortion. I believe abortion-on-demand is evil. I believe partial-birth abortion is evil. I believe in both Creation and evolution. I believe in limited government, the smaller, the better. I know sometimes the public sector has to step in.
I believe Dick Cheney is right. I believe we have been fighting the Anti-Semites here and abroad. I believe Pope Benedict is right when he says Anti-Semitism has been rearing its ugly head. (Actually I think the Pope stole that line from me.)
I believe Obama will be our president for four years. I believe he may even turn out to be a very good president. I’m not even sure why he embroils our people in these indecisive distractions, when it seems to me he’s kicking some serious terrorist butt in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. I did worry he would be too weak, but I haven’t seen that yet.
I do believe Obama would take this country too far to the left if he had his druthers. He seems to be open to compromise, but he hasn’t proven that yet. I am watching to see where he comes down on health care reform. That will be a serious indicator for me.
I love conservatives, homos and liberals.
so I didn’t know whether you meant that as an insult or what…
(Not meant as an insult.)
I believe you will find that we really run the gamut here at RosettaSister. We agree to disagree much of the time, but have a lot of respect for one another’s views.
About the only thing we all agree on all the time is that Obama is hiding something from his past.
But we diverge from there.
Some here will never accept Obama as their president, as they believe him to be Constitutionally ineligible.
All of us love our country. Most of us love our Creator.
I will accept Obama as my president when he has earned my trust. And that hasn’t happened yet.

People like Orly Taitz talk about bringing up a Civilian army to attack my country – which is SEDITION. ., I’ve even heard people on the far right talk about BURNING books that tend to go against their world view (evolution related for example)
These same people look at folks like Ann Coulter as a role model and spout that type of venom at anyone who disagrees with them.
So that’s just a little taste of where my hate comes from. I hate this side of America. They hate me. I consider them Enemies….

Hey, jr!
I figure we’re dealing with a twelve-year old here, or a very small, heartless person indeed.
You know, we’re either right or we’re wrong.
And if we’re wrong, why bother with us?
***********************************************
I think that this is a kid (teen) who is doing this. Don’t let it rattle your cage. Wording is not indicative of an adult. And if it is an adult they are extremely immature and stupid. We all knew Cindy for who she really was and nothing can take that from us.
So HAL – GROW UP and get off the porch – you don’t even rate playing with the big dogs.

Also, as Rose said “You know, we’re either right or we’re wrong. And if we’re wrong, why bother with us?” I know we are right and that is all that matters and that is why they like to bother us.

Thanks Jr,
I tried to help Cindy before anyone here knew what was going on with her, so it might be a little more personal for me when some scum sucking piece of human feces makes godless comments like that about a fine lady, as we know Cindy was.
I won’t tolerate it!!!

No one expects you to, Troy.
We just have different ways of coping.

Hope and Change = “…no more”
by DefendUSx May 22, 2009 14:30
Written by an unknown Pastor’s Wife, and brilliantly said:
And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land called America , having lost their morals, their work initiative, and their will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that person known as “The One”.
He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning; but He hypnotized the people telling them, “I am sent to save you. My eligibility, my questionable ethics, my lack of experience, my monstrous ego, and my association with evil doers are of no consequence. For I shall save you with Hope and Change. Go, therefore, and proclaim throughout the land that he who preceded me is evil, that he has defiled the nation, and that all he has built must be destroyed.”
And the people rejoiced, for even though they knew not what “The One” would do, he had promised that he would bring change, and they proclaimed “Yes We Can”.
And “The One” said “We live in the greatest country in the world. Help me change everything about it!”
And the people said, “Hallelujah!! Change is good!”
Then He said, “We are going to tax the rich fat-cats,”—- And the people said “Sock it to them!” “—- and “Redistribute their wealth.”
And then He said, “Redistribution of wealth is good for everybody” And the people said, “Show us the money!”
And Joe the plumber asked, “Are you kidding me? You’re going to steal my money and give it to the deadbeats??”
And “The One” ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe’s personal records were hacked, publicized, and ridiculed; though no crime could be found.
One lone reporter asked, “That shouldn’t be, isn’t that Marxist policy?” And she was banished from the kingdom!
Then a citizen asked, “With no foreign relations experience and having zero military experience or knowledge, how will you deal with radical terrorists?”
And “The One” said, “Simple. I shall sit with them and talk kindly to them and show them how nice we really are; and they will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!”
And the people said, “Hallelujah!! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons into free cars for the people!”
Then “The One” said, “I shall give 95% of you lower taxes.” And one, lone voice said, “But 40% of us don’t pay ANY taxes.” So “The One” said, “Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!” And the people said, “Hallelujah!! Show us the money!”
Then “The One” said, “I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell your homes!” And the people yawned and the already slumping housing market fully collapsed.
And He said, “I shall mandate employer-funded health care for EVERY worker and raise the minimum wage, and lower the white collar wage. And I shall also give every person unlimited healthcare and medicine and even transportation to the free clinics.” And the people said, “Give me some of that!”
Then he said, “I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas.” And the people said, “Where’s my rebate check?”
Then “The One” said, “I shall bankrupt the coal industry, and perhaps even the oil industry (Cap & Trade/Carbon Tax) and though electricity rates will skyrocket, we shall soon build wind farms and solar power stations and drive green cars that I shall mandate in Detroit!”
And the people said, “Coal is dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don’t care for that part about higher electric rates.”
So “The One” said, “Not to worry. If your rebate ($10/week) isn’t enough to cover your extra expenses ($3,000/year), we shall bail you out. Just sign up with ACORN and your troubles are over!” “Only the fat cats will have to pay.”
Then He said, “Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let’s grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches, free medical care, bi-lingual signs and guaranteed housing…” And the people said, “Hallelujah!!” And they made him King!
And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers; though they sold much less of their products. Others simply gave up and went out of business, and the economy sank like unto a rock dropped from a cliff. The banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a crawl. And more of the people were without a means of support.
So “The One” again blamed the prior administration, extended unemployment benefits to a year, bailed out his favorite banks, and then took over the banks and auto industries.
“The One” said, “I am the “The One” – The Messiah – and I’m here to save you! We shall just print more money so the government will have enough!” “Surely one trillion dollars will make everyone happy.” And immediately the Fed complied and the money presses roared.
And China reconsidered their one trillion dollars of loans to the US, and threatened to call in their debts.
Other foreign trading partners said unto “The One”, “Wait a minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have to pay more.. for everything.. as your dollar becomes worth less.”
And the people said, “Wait a minute.. That is unfair!!”
And the world said, “Neither are these other idiotic programs you have embraced. Lo, you have become a Socialist state and a second-rate power. What factories are not owned by your government are owned by us. Now you shall play by our rules!”
And “The One” said “Americans are arrogant, divisive, and derisive!” “We will listen.”
And the people cried out, “Alas, alas!! What have we done?”
But yea verily, it was too late. The people eventually set upon “The One” and spat upon him and stoned him, and his name was dung. But the once mighty nation was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or shelter or hope.
And the Change that “The One” had given them was as like unto a poison that had destroyed them from within, and like a whirlwind that consumed all that they had built.
And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish, “Give us back our nation and our pride and our hope!!”
But it was too late, and the once-glorious “Home of the Brave and Land of the Free” was no more.

Actually Rose, I do apologize to you and you only. I don’t agree with some of your views but your approach isn’t full of ignorance and hate that many on the far right express.
I really do think some far right wingnuts hate this country; They are openly racist but they bash YOU if you happen to point it out to em.
They threaten to attack my leaders (violently) ; They call the Obamas , including their children every name in the book – make fun of how they look. People like Orly Taitz talk about bringing up a Civilian army to attack my country – which is SEDITION. ., I’ve even heard people on the far right talk about BURNING books that tend to go against their world view (evolution related for example)

So that’s just a little taste of where my hate comes from. I hate this side of America. They hate me. I consider them Enemies….
(Okay, Hal. But I don’t think it’s ever okay to hate. It just eats away at your soul.)
As can be seen, some here don’t approve of me publishing your comments.
I recently heard a man of the cloth, the one who spoke at Obama’s inauguration, he said the “Our Father.”
Anyway, he spoke of who Jesus would associate himself with if he were alive today.
As you know, the company Jesus kept didn’t meet the approval of many.
One of the posters here, Tenacity, has spoken of this place being a ministry.
I hope we can minister to each other here.

So true – and I know you already referenced the Lame Cherry post, but I could not resisted quoting from it – “This is a grave people of America which the majority of dim nuts voted for and which Obama and his benefactors have buried an alive America into to destroy her. … mission is accomplished. …but it is finished.”
Abraham Lincoln once said “America will only be destroyed from within.” That is exactly what IS happening.
