Different Healthcare for the Elites

Like I've said before. The political class will always have a different system for themselves than for the rest of us. It's true for education. You know it will be true for health care.
Chavez Upset About Blow to His Socialist Network. And So is America???

The recent military coup in Honduras is a threat to Hugo Chavez. Chavez has been attempting to build a network of socialist leaders in central and south America. He's now condemning the coup of his puppet ally Manuel Zelaya.

Chavez is not alone. He has America by his side.

Amazingly, instead of being glad that a socialist, Chavez ally was overthrown, the Obama administration is condemning the coup. Whatever happened to "not meddling?"

In reality, the Honduran Supreme Court said it had ordered the army to oust President Manuel Zelaya because of his unlawful plan to hold a public vote on presidential re-election.

It's hard to believe that the Obama administration would be so quick to condemn the overthrow of a man who was flaunting the constitution of his nation and seeking to set himself up like another Castro.

The Obama administration sees nothing wrong with socialist dictators or in fact socialism itself. They embrace it, admire it and want it for America.

Just imagine what the oppressed people in Venezuela are thinking. They know the cannot count on America's support in getting rid of Chavez. Our leaders continue to show that they have no appreciation for or love of freedom.

It might sound harsh but it's true.

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck it's probably a duck.
Rep. Waxman on His Own Bill: Uhhh...duhhhh...duhhhh

This is why some of us don't fall for the man-made, or rather American-made, global warming scam. The people in charge of making laws haven't read and studied enough, analytically, to make a proper determination. Yet they're willing to throw our economy into the junker.

They don't care about the truth.

I'm trying hard not to ascribe motives to these people. You can bet that it's not about saving the planet. It's certainly not about jobs.
Marriage: One Couple's Story of Faith and Love

I occasionally post things that I think make relationships work. When it comes to marriage, I try post stories of and advice from people who have made it work. While discussing marriage on Twitter the other day, a fellow tweeter newportexec aka Steve Labins, mentioned that he and his wife recently celebrated their 31st anniversary. That inspired me to ask Steve to share his thoughts on love and marriage.

Theirs is a story not without struggle. That is what makes it even more beautiful. Please take just a moment to read this poignant profile of gratitude, faith and love.

"When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every Americanwas to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
