Tonight at the store, an old woman was walking her dog. As she walked by my son and I at the Redbox, her dog tangled up her legs, and she fell to the groung, first hitting her knees then her elbow, then her mouth and forehead on the sidewalk.

As she laid on the sidewalk, I tried to get her some help, not knowing if she would want me to call 911, or to call family or what. I finally got her phone from her, and was able to call her grandson and her son to come get her. She was a Persian woman, and after a nasty face first fall was very difficult to understand. She definitely did not want the paramedics there.

In the mean time, a number of people came up to see what the fuss was; the the store staff, and drive-by doctor, and some other rubber neckers. The doctor was helpful, as he got her sitting up, and the store staff got her some towels and such. While I waited for the son and grandson to show up, my job then became to fend off the rubber-neckers and keep them from calling the paramedics. The doctor had it dialed up, but then decided against it, once he saw she was soemwhat lucid, and the thought of calling 911 was making her up set. One guy really liked talking to me about how she might not have insurance, could be an illegal, or maybe we should just call them. Then another woman with a load of groceries came out who seemed to need all of her questions answered to make sure that the 5 people assisting her new that there were people called paramedics that we could call.

I finally decided that if these people all wanted to call the paramedics, that I would be more than happy for them to call, so I started telling them to please do so should they feel so compelled, but then no one did. Finally the son and grandson showed up and took her to the hospital. I hope she is ok, but it was a really wierd evening....

This is one of the greatest stories of all time...

The quotes are so applicable to today!

Why I am concerned with the Socialist Obama Administration

I am concerned about the decline of American Exceptionalism. I am concerned with the socialization of the automobile industry, the insurance industry, the mortgage industry, the healthcare industry. Check out this link...http://pajamasmedia.com/zombie/2010/03/20/why-america-hates-universal-health-care-the-real-reason/

I am concerned that when the public by at a minimum 60% if not 75% does not want something and one party takes it on to push through something that requires Americans to spend money on something, whether they want it or not, that we are slipping into a place where the government is only going to be taking more of our liberty.... See More

I am concerned that now that we have to pay for everyone's health care no matter their stupid decisions with respect to their health, then they will start to tell us what we can do, who we can sleep with, what we can eat, etc. You think the Fundamentalist Christians are telling you how to live? I'd rather have them suggesting how I live, than Michelle Obama telling me how to live because the government owns my healthcare, even though I have to pay taxes to support it.

I am concerned with the lack of transparency with which Healthcare was passed and how the Obama administration operates.

I am concerned that our economy will continue to be destroyed, that Obama, Pelosi, and Reid believe that government is the answer, while they demonize industry.

I am stressed out about all of this. It makes me sick to my stomach to think that there is no understanding of basic economics, and it concerns me that the Democrats are willing to give up their power for a gain that will continue to push us toward government take over of health care, while destroying an industry that did provide jobs to people.

I am sorry that we elected a radical socialist, communist President, and that more people didn't realize this sooner.

I am concerned that spreading the wealth around recuces motivation of people to excel and continues the death spiral of American Exceptionalism.

Sickness

I haven't felt this sick since Barrack Obama was elected.

Remember people, that hope is not a strategy. He cannot hope that people will do the right thing. I was talking to a guy today, he said that these are signs of the end times...He is a college professor.

It is time to hold this Congress (House and Senate) accountable. Get out and vote at a minimum this fall. If you can donate to conservatively principled candidates.

Make them listen, and lets take our government back.

Palestinian memo says hopes in Obama 'evaporated' | Middle East Conflict

Palestinian memo says hopes in Obama 'evaporated' | Middle East Conflict

"All hopes placed in the new US administration and President Obama have evaporated," said the document issued by Fatah's Office of Mobilization and Organization.

I hope this isn't a indicative of all the hopes that Obama has set up during his election, and for which he won the Nobel Peace Prize...

Conspiracy Theory....Nah, couldn't be....

If I were a conspiracy theorist, I might think that Nancy Pelosi, the Obama Administration, or any liberal special interest group had something to do with Michael Jackson's death. I mean really, they are about to drive energy prices through the roof with their little cap and trade ponzi scheme, legalize 20 million illegal imigrants (--I mean new Leftist voters), and socialize healthcare. Not to mention doing their level best to isolate ourselves from the demonstrators in Iran dying in the streets and make it hate speech for Christians to discuss Biblical teachings on homosexuality.

If the mainstream media, or as Rush calls them now, the State Run Media, were independent and not just a wing of the liberal establishment, we might actually have seen some debate on some of these issues. However, since they obviously weren't going to cover them anyway, we can rest assured that our government would never assassinate a mega pop star like Michael Jackson to take refocus the SRM off of any of these isssues...

...right?...

...Hillary has been MIA lately with all that has been going on in Iran, and aren't the Clinton's experienced at making problems disappear? I hope I can sleep tonight with the black helicopters flying outside my window...

It drove me even more nuts today to hear that Michael Savage (who even by my standards is a bit over the top) was taken off the air for wall to wall coverage of MJ's death, and Hugh Hewitt wouldn't shut up about it all afternoon, even when his audience is begging him to do what he can to defeat these bills that will be made into law in the next few weeks. He claims that should he not talk about it, he will lose ratings. I don't think he understands his audience, even when they are explicitly telling him they don't want to hear it. Like anyone is going to tune into the Salem Radio Network to hear Hugh Hewitt's coverage of Michael Jackson. Come on if you cared, why wouldn't you just go to your local FM pop or R&B radio station? Luckily for my half hour drive time, I have other options besides the arrogant Mr. Hewitt.

Thanks to Roger Hedgecock for fighting off the Man and staying true to the cause, and thanks to the Heritage Foundation, American Solutions, and the Sunlight Foundation for calling spades, spades!

Who else is making money on Obama?

I know the unions are making money, and the banks that have been bailed out, but there is also another level of marketing of Obama, and I don't think it is just the same old buy it for nostalgia reasons.

I was at Costco the other day. And besides the children's books, memorial Michelle and Barack books, there are also CD's of election music and liberal bands who supported Barack in the election. Now on facebook, there is an add, where I, for the low, low price of $325 can buy the same watch that Barack Obama wears. On the CD, there is actually a credit for some Elect Obama group. So my question is, does Obama make any royalty off of these items? Is this to put money back in the coffers for the 2012 campaign, or to pay off the inaugaration parties? There is an insidious marketing machine there, and it is not just mainstream/state run media in the ideasphere...
