“Typewriters in 1961 could not change the size and shape of a letter on the fly like that,” he said. “This document is definitely a forgery.”

This is the “show”; no longer a “sideshow”.

Why?

What’s so embarrassing in all the documents that are being suppressed?

More Solid Proof That Obamacare Is Working

Recent data provided by the nation’s largest health insurance companies reveals that a provision of the Affordable Care Act – or Obamacare – is bringing big numbers of the uninsured into the health care insurance system. And they are precisely the uninsured that we want– the young people who tend no

I suggest my fellow Jasper that she look into all the waivers being granted and to whom they are being issued. And, brush up on Ekkynomcs, when payment is distanced from service, then all sorts of problems arise. We see some problems now and Obamacare will make more and different ones. Rationing will be the least of them. Look at VA care, Indian Care, and Walter Reed for some real life “road tests”. Argh!

And, it really hasn’t even started yet — ten years of taxation for six years of benefits AND stuff doesn’t kick in for years.

POLITICAL: At least were not as bad as West Virginia school-wise?

Homeschooling and the clueless Miss Marple

*** begin quote ***

Nevertheless, perhaps we can all agree with Miss Marple in one respect. West Virginia does need more regulation of education. Consequently, as a public service, here is my modest proposal for reforming West Virginia’s public schools: Homeschooling parents should regulate Miss Marple and the West Virginia government school system until the students in the government schools for which she is responsible outperform homeschooled children academically.

Unfortunately, this recommendation is not likely to be accepted, which means that most state superintendents of education around the country will continue to be able to tell parents upset about the job their local schools are doing, “Well, at least we’re not West Virginia.” In the meantime, as far as homeschooling is concerned, Miss Marple needs to get a clue.

Or are we?

Let me muse on that using my usual three tine fork.

IMMORAL

Is it moral for that criminal gang in Trenton or DC to “regulate” or “operate” Gooferment Skrules?

First, during the Cold War, we decried the Soviet and Chinese schools as “propaganda factories” that “brainwashed” the youth and political prisoners. We see North Korea as the ultimate of a brainwashed society where all good comes from the “great leader”. How is the current system of public education any different than that. Isn’t the Gooferment Skrules “brainwashing future voters?

Second, freedom of religion? Don’t parents get to educate their children in the religion o their choice? No, Gooferment Skrules teach “Secular Progressive” values and “Earth Worship”. Whole generations have lost their religions by the operation of “public education”.

Third, isn’t it immoral to force some people to pay for the education of other people’s children? I don’t have any input into the decision to have these children; I don’t feed them or clothe them. But I get to pay to educate them. The Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee with its property taxes literally forces old people from their homes by virtue of the property tax.

Four, Gooferment Skrules have “Teachers’ Unions”. There’s a corrupt circle. Those unions work for the election of politicians. Those politicians appoint the bureaucrats. The bureaucrats “negotiate” contracts with the unions. How’s that for a feedback loop for corruption.

Five, Gooferment Skrules have an infrastructure of pigs that feed at the trough of Gooferment Skrules. Those pigs give money to politicians and bureaucrats to ensure that the trough is full. They also vote for the politicians to continue it. In any school budget election, you can count on all the teachers and the pigs to vote to spend more.

Six, “it’s for the children”, what greater fraud is perpetrated on the children than to pretend what is being done to them is “education”. Have you ever talked to the output of the Gooferment Skrules? Permanently damaged goods. Any the statistics are “managed”; just dig into any number and you’ll find just how badly they are inflated.

INEFFECTIVE

Just look at the Gooferment’s own reports, Gooferment Skrules are a failure at education. Look at that high school exam from the turn of the century, I’m not sure I could pass it.

INEFFICIENT

By any measure the costs far exceed either private, parochial, or home schooling.

# – # – #

Long ago, I proposed a 40 year plan to get out of this particular hole.

The first half, 20 years, was a gradual extraction of the Gooferment from the operation of Gooferment Skrules. All parents would get a voucher for the cost of a year’s education. 5% a year were freed to seek education elsewhere. At the end of 20 years or so, then all education would be done in private schools.

The second half, another 20 years, the amount of the voucher would be reduced 5% per year. All parents would begin to pay the cost of educating the children they decided to have. At the end of of 20 years or so, parents would be paying for the education of their children.

The Gooferment would be out of the education business.

And, we’ll all be better off.

A Country of 90,000 Governments

*** begin quote ***

Backcasting is a tool used by futurists to look at the present from some point in the future.

In much the same way we stand in amazement as we read about the Salem witch trials, or 18th century doctors who used bleeding to cure diseases, or Polynesian tribes who sacrificed virgins to appease the volcano-gods, a country comprised of 90,000 governments is destined to appear equally ludicrous in the future.

One hundred years in the future, people in 2110 will look back at this era of history and marvel at the insanity of our times. They will be amazed at how people managed to live in a country with more laws than anyone can count, a tax code that, according to NPR, is over 67,000 pages long with 1,638 different tax forms, and a justice system that controls one out of every 31 people in the country and has the highest incarceration rate of any nation in history.

All of our defensive posturing for maintaining the status quo will quickly deteriorate into the equivalent of modern caveman thinking as future generations make us the punchline of their jokes and the universal symbol of “what not to do.”

Argh!

POLITICAL: NEW “Read the Bills Act”

Introducing the NEW “Read the Bills Act”
Posted by Jim Babka

*** begin quote ***

Quote of the Day: “A constitution is not the act of a government, but of a people constituting a government; and government without a constitution is power without a right. All power exercised over a nation, must have some beginning. It must be either delegated, or assumed. There are not other sources. All delegated power is trust, and all assumed power is usurpation. Time does not alter the nature and quality of either.” — Thomas Paine (1737-1809)

A few months ago we announced pledges from two members of the House, and one Senator, Rand Paul, to introduce our Downsize DC Agenda bills — “Read the Bills,” “Write the Laws,” and “One Subject at a Time.”

*** and ***

We’ll be showing you the results of this work in stages, starting today, with the NEW “Read the Bills Act” (RTBA). The new RTBA . . .

* Lists the Constitutional provisions that authorize it, in compliance with the Enumerated Powers rule

* Has improved findings — these are the statements of fact that justify the legislation

* Places one new restriction on Congress — forcing them to give the public advance notice of when a vote is scheduled, which will thwart legislation by surprise, and further protect the public’s opportunity to read each bill

* Improves the ability of citizens to defend themselves against “laws” passed in violation of RTBA

OBAMA’S WAR ON ISRAEL
By Dick Morris And Eileen McGann
05.23.2011

*** begin quote ***

The consequences for Jewish Democrats of Obama’s remarks are profound. They must each now choose, bluntly and without room for equivocation between their support for Obama and their backing for Israel. It is not Israel or the Republican Party that has forced this choice upon them. It is the President himself whose anti-Israel bias has never been more blatantly on display.

*** end quote ***

It’s also a time for all men of good will to call this President “on the carpet”.

Have we forgotten the death camps?

Why would we side with anyone AGAINST the only democracy in the region?

Watch the movie “Exodus” and then tell me that we have no moral duty in this.

Our “foreign policy” has been to write verbal checks and then pull the rug out. I remember the ’57 Hungarian Revolution when children fought tanks thinking that “America” would help. Our national disgrace. Better we had said nothing.

Ron Paul is right. Our foreign policy sets us up for future problems.

BHO44 is wrong on this issue. As wrong as Chamberlin was on Czechoslovakia.

Time for “We, The Sheeple” to rebuke this President and reset foreign policy. We have to stand by our word and stop giving it out in the first place.

LED bulbs hit 100 watts as federal ban looms
By PETER SVENSSON, AP Technology Writer – Mon May 16, 6:05 pm ET

*** begin quote ***

NEW YORK – Two leading makers of lighting products are showcasing LED bulbs that are bright enough to replace energy-guzzling 100-watt light bulbs set to disappear from stores in January.

*** and ***

Before the 100-watters, there will be 75-watters on the shelves this year. Osram Sylvania will be selling them at Lowe’s starting in July. Royal Philips Electronics NV, the world’s biggest lighting maker, will have them in stores late this year for $40 to $45.

*** end quote ***

Sorry, but I think the politicians and bureaucrats in DC have lost their minds.

Now, I’m just a fat old white guy injineer and I KNOW one thing: light bulbs are cheap. A buck or two versus $50?

Now poor folks are going to have to take out a loan to buy a bulb?

Sorry, but who are we subsidizing now?

This makes ZERO sense.

POLITICAL: TSA blog — “we molest because we’re the Feds and superior”

Texas House of Representatives Seeking to Ban Current TSA Pat-Down

*** begin quote ***

What’s our take on the Texas House of Representatives voting to ban the current TSA pat-down? Well, the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution (Article. VI. Clause 2) prevents states from regulating the federal government.

*** end quote ***

Interesting, interesting, interesting … …

This is another “great fight” that is shaping up to head for the supremes.

(Never understod the Dead Old White Guys thinking that the Gooferment would be regulated by a Gooferment “court”. But they were pretty smart and never expected “We, The People” to be so dumb.)

Guess whoever writes the TSA blog never heard about “the better part of valor”.

Last thing I’d do is tell a bunch of <past tense synonym for urine output> off Texans that “we do cause we’re the tsa and better than you”.

Guess they’ve never read the 10th. Soon to be a MORE popular topic in Texas.

(The folks in the Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee are still trying to be better socialists than California or New York, so this will be unknow to them.)

While not enough to move the folks into the streets, it’s certainly gotta sit like a burr under a saddle.

And, if I was a troublemaker, I’d forward this story to everyone I knew in Texas.

(And, call them “goat ropers”. They just love that. It’ll put them in the proper frame of mind to read it.)
