For the Sake of Health

A new government study has found that GM cars are the safest, most efficient cars available in America, surpassing Mercedes, Volvo, Ford, and even some privately built armored cars.

Therefore, because driving of less-safe cars may lead to expensive medical bills (some of which will not be paid by the drivers and might be absorbed by the tax payer) the government is now passing new automobile reform legislation.

All Americans will be required to purchase GM cars. If they do not, they will be fined and eventually charged with the crime of refusing to drive a GM. Those who cannot afford a GM car will be issued a GM by the government paid for by tax dollars. The existing car makers are free to compete with GM for the business, but only if they convert all their automobiles to the standards and equipment found in GM cars. IF they cannot do so, and sales plummet because their customers fear imprisonment for not driving a GM or GM equivalent, then they those manufactures will go out of business, leaving their employees jobless.

Mechanics who are not licensed or certified to repair GM cars, will be re-trained. The congress will establish rules for what GM licensed mechancis can charge for an oil change, ball joint repair, and what major overhauls are appropriate. Those who continue to repair other brands based on agreements with their owners will be subject to criminal prosecution and stripped of their certifications. Crossing into Canada or Mexico to have your vehicle repaired will be a criminal act, GM or other brand.

Pay no attention to the fact that the government owns GM. This is for your own good, and the good of the millions of Americans, and illegal immigrants, who can't afford cars. This legislation will be passed REGARDLESS of your position on its constitutionality or benefits.



This is the health care reform that is currently being pushed through congress.

Your freedom and liberty removed. Your choice removed. Government "studies" determining what health care is necessary and safe --- IE new mammogram standards.

Jail for refusal to choose health insurance. Massive cost increases on taxpayers and the destruction of private health care insurance providers, and all their employees jobless. Doctors told what tests, procedures and care can be provided, no private contracts for care, and cross boarder excursions to see a physician operating abroad illegal.

Stop this massive unconstitutional power grab now.

Call, email, write your congress and the president. Rally your friends and like minded. Attempt to logically argue the point with liberals you know -- this is a matter of freedom and choice, not the tragedy of the uninsured.

Communist - Plain and Simple

Government ownership of private business.

Government telling private business and citizens what wages they may receive.

And now, the President determining which news outlets will be "allowed" to interview or be present for press conferences with government officials. THIS IS COMMUNISM.

The sad thing is, the citizenry is so ill informed, or uneducated on history, that our President does not even have to hide his agenda.

The Constitution has become a distraction to him and his Congress. His oath is a fraud.

This tax --- shall not be treated as a tax -- Health Care Bill

This is actual language from the Health Care Bill, page 174, addressing the tax (2.5%) imposed if you choose not to purchase health care.

‘‘(6) NOT TREATED AS TAX IMPOSED BY THISCHAPTER FOR CERTAIN PURPOSES.—

The tax imposed under this section shall not be treated as tax imposed by this chapter for purposes of determining the amount of any credit under this chapter or for purposes of section.

I'm only on page 174 of 1017, so I am sure there is more to come.

Here is the Bill.

Can you say --- Big Brother.

"The White House has been under fire since it posted a blog on Tuesday that asked supporters to e-mail any "fishy" information seen on the Web or received electronically to flag@whitehouse.gov."


Turn in your countrymen, your neighbors, or your family for their "fishy" free speech against Govt. intrusion into health care, or any other part of your life.

Freedom and Liberty are bleeding out............................Vote, Vote. Vote for a tourniquet to save our Republic.

CopArazzi

Today I heard the perfect term for law enforcement's continued use of red light Cameras.

CopArazzi!


The paparazzi have the right to take photos of celebrities in PUBLIC, but none of us support or condone their METHODS.

Likewise, police have a DUTY to keep our streets safe, but, red light cameras are not the proper METHOD, and are often counterproductive.

Police agencies have become the CopArazzi. Lost is the spirit and intent of their job and purpose; lost to the all mighty dollar. The perfect analogy.


IN FULL DISCLOSURE - I heard this term on Bob and Tom today, from comedian Augie Smith.

M.I.S. and NASCAR Get it Right!

Do you like speed and power?

Do you like girl watching, boy watching, or freak of nature watching?

Do you like good fried food, beer cheaper than at the ball game, and a day in the sun?

Then check out MIS and NASCAR, especially if you have kids under 13.

I went to my first NASCAR race last Sunday at MIS. The general admission tickets were $40 dollars each - which included a free ticket for a child 12 or younger. So for the price of 3 adult tickets, $120.00, we got 6 total tickets and six of us went to the race. That's $20 bucks a person.

IF we chose too, we would not have needed to spend another dime. We brought all the water, Gatorade and snacks we needed. We could have brought our own beer, but with the kids on the trip, we abstained. Parking is free and the tram ride to the grandstands is free. The seats were good enough to see the back stretch, sit on turns 3 and 4, and see the front stretch and first two turns with binoculars.

The food was reasonably priced compared to The Joe, 5/3 field, or Comerica with an extensive selection. The beer a bit cheaper than at the ball game. On top of that much of the NASCAR memorabilia was well priced. I got one Earnhart Jr. hat for $10.00 and one Home Depot, Joey Logano hat for $18.

Traffic is well regulated, about an hour up, and about 45 minutes to get out of the parking areas after the race, being one of 50,000 cars. A quick ride up M-50 from 23 and you can witness a great spectacle on the track and in some of the stands. Never was I concerned that my 12 year old boy would hear or see something "new" and he loved the day. In fact, so did I.

Good Job MIS -- keep it up and we will see you in August.
