No, Obama is not setting up death panels. He is just creating rules that hospitals can only comply with if they quietly and unofficially have death panels for medicare patients. If a hospital discharges a patient who lingers on for years sucking up lots of expensive services outside the hospital, the hospital is penalized. If, however, the potentially expensive patient should conveniently croak while in hospital … In a number …

Governor Romneycare promises to be a better Obama
Governor Romneycare is campaigning to be the Republican presidential candidate. He tells us that: Every turnaround has three rules. Focus, focus, focus. Focus on what’s most important, devote all your energy to that which is broken. … Instead of focusing his energy on the economy he delegated the stimulus to Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, and they built a stimulus which grew government jobs but didn’t grow private-sector jobs. And …
Censorship
Like a frog boiled, we have now reached Stalinist levels of censorship. They won’t send you to the gulag, but in the later days of Stalinism they seldom did that. Rather, your career depended on compliance I was listening to Chris Rock’s hilarious rant “We hate black people too!” and my son became alarmed, lest some one sneak up on my house and listen near the windows.
Democratic apocalypse
The latest events in the middle east are not looking too favorable for the theory of democratic peace. I said this in an earlier post, and this is just an “I told you so†repeat. Things were bad then, and they are getting worse now, as the middle eastern parties converge to the center and the mainstream – revealing that the center and the mainstream favors suicidal war on infidels. …
Obama’s Birth Certificate Forged
What Obama released is a composite photoshopped together from multiple documents. Archive Index Systems spots undeniable photoshop artifacts in the released birth certificate. The background text, from one certificate, is slightly curved, which is what you get if you scan some paper that is not perfectly flat – the document was scanned from a book, so near the book binding did not lie perfectly flat. The name of the hospital …
Herman Cain
The rest of the republican field is now acting as if Herman Cain is the man to beat, acting as if he is now the front runner for Republican candidate and president, which makes him the front runner for the moment, though it is a long way to go to the 2012 presidential elections. I suspect this may be charisma envy. Obama has a lot of charisma, so Republicans are …
Anne Mansouret confirms rape of Tristane Banon by DSK
It seems that the chief of the IMF has been in the habit of raping women for quite some time – and no one called him on it until today. Ann Mansouret confirms that her daughter, Tristane Banon was raped by Dominique Strauss-Kahn So far, the hotel management has had balls the size of apples, the south central cops have had balls the size of apples, and, to my considerable …
Lifestyles of the benefactors of the poor
The other McCain has an interesting tale to tell: Recently the World Bank, led by the leading socialist candidate for the french presidency, in its endless efforts to help the poor, helped the poor backward illegal immigrant Muslim majority of the Ivory Coast take over from the slightly less poor and slightly more advanced native Christian minority of the Ivory Coast. But how do these people live when not tirelessly …
Google is evil
Firefox reports your IP and all nearby wifi systems to Google. Thunderbird reports your IP to Google. From the nearby wifi systems, Google can locate you relative to nearby wifi points.. From a multitude of browsers reporting in, it can locate wifi systems relative to each other. When it does ground level photo drives for Google Earth, it locates wifi systems relative to streets and houses. Knowing the location of …
Democracy in the Ivory Coast
The UN refugee agency estimates that over a million people have fled. Many of them are hiding in the jungle, and many of them have no food. However, it piously avoids saying who is fleeing whom, and why. The great majority of refugees are westernized Christians and animists fleeing Muslims with a markedly lower level of civilization. The great majority of refugees are not immigrants or the children of immigrants, …
