Happy 10th Birthday, Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy!

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

Jaunary 27th will mark the 10th birthday (or anniversary) of Hillary Clinton’s birthing of the “Vast Right Wing Conspiracy”. American Thinker writer, Bruce Walker writes

Hillary expected serious Americans to believe that the Whitewater convictions (which put a sitting Arkansas governor in prison), the suicide of the Deputy White House Chief Counsel under mysterious circumstances, the unconscionable firing of the White House travel staff, Hillary’s strange acumen in predicting the cattle futures market, an allegation of brutal rape against her husband, the perjury of Bill Clinton in a federal grand jury proceeding, his affair with a White House intern, and the countless other moral debauches of the Clintons were created by some cabal with power greater than the president, the Democratic Party and the huge phalanx of media flacks, fawning Hollywood starlets, militant activists and nihilistic academicians.    

I am happy to be a member of this ‘conspiracy’ and will continue to seek the truth despite the media’s attempts to hide it.

Bill Clinton may get a payout of over $20 million

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

Former President Bill Clinton stands to earn as much as $20,000,000 for his role as an ‘adviser’ to billionaire investor Ron Burkle.

So, what’s wrong with that? Burkle’s Yucaipa Cos. LLC is based in the Cayman Islands, which means that his earnings are not subject to US taxation and his role as an ‘adviser’ means that he can be compensated with a stake in the company, rather than a salary. These ‘equity incomes’ are taxed at a rate of 15%, which is far lower than the standard income tax.

Again, what’s so wrong with that? Its not illegal. Hills wife, Billary, said in 2004 that she wanted to close the “loopholes for people who create a mailbox, or a drop, or send one person to sit on the beach in some island paradise and claim that it is their offshore headquarters”. It sure is an interesting contradiction within the Clinton family….Read more on Bloomberg.com

Our Future Healthcare

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

Yet another compelling reason why socialized *anything* is a bad idea. 
From Boortz.com:

“Here’s another little look into our future after Hillary Clinton (or any Democrat for that matter) places our healthcare into the hands of government.

Arlene Meeks is from Canada. In many parts of Canada it would be illegal for you to take your own money and pay for your own health care from a private provider. The Canadian government, you see, wants to maintain its monopoly on health care. It’s all about power. Anyway …. Arlene was visiting her family in California when she needed emergency surgery because her appendix burst. Lucky for Arlene, she was in the United States when this happened and she was able to seek immediate care. But two weeks later, Arlene still hasn’t been transferred back to Canada. She can’t go home. And why not? Because the South Fraser Health Region in British Colombia where she lives has a shortage of ventilated intensive care unit beds. They are saying it is because of the holidays, and it is no surprise that those beds fill up. So … no room for Arlene in the hospital. She has to stay in the U.S. The beds are full because the Liberal government cut acute care beds in British Colombia by 1,300. A report was issued last fall indicating that they are at least 650 beds short … but just like government, nothing has yet to be done. 

This is the future of health care in the U.S. … and every vote for a MoveOn Democrats brings this future closer.” 
UK news site, The Daily Mail, reports that nearly 400,000 people in the UK have waited over a year for NHS (UK’s National Health Service) treatment. Additionally, 713,513 patients needing elective treatment were waiting over 36 weeks and 387,152 of them waited over a year. This doesn’t sound like anything close to efficient. Why would anyone in their right mind ever think that government run healthcare would be better than private solutions?
