Comments for Lying Media Bastards

After spending a year exercising every morning and trying to shed a few pounds… nothing. I decided to switch from a breakfast cereal (raisin bran, which *sounds* healthy) to a brand with natural sugar instead of corn sweeteners.

Nothing.

Then I switched to oatmeal with no sweeteners at all other than some raisins and a pinch of sugar I add myself. I lost 4 pounds in about a month. Pretty sure that’s the only substantial change I made to my diet or exercise routine.

Purge to rid over 50 year old salaried M &P employees. Was not advised that extended health and medical benefits would be lost as I was not 55 year old at time of layoff. Several pension enhancements for USA GE employees but despite several pleads no enhancements to GE CANADA salaried pension plan. I despise Welch and Emelt for not recognizing the contributions made by long service employees. Oh by the way, a GE CANADA VP protested my layoff to the GE CANADA President, and the GE CANADA VP was fired. A world class asshole company. Laid off fro GE Canada with 36 years of service.

I see them in public (with their portables) and they have to be the closest thing to a zombie that I've ever seen, outside of the movies, of course! They are totally unaware of what is even going on around them, and it sure shows in manners, driving and many other facits of day to day life; most are completely unable to interact anymore. Makes me glad I haven't owned a TV in 35 years and raised a briliant daughter - without all this in your face shit! I will admit to having little fantasies that involve walking up to these jerks, grabbing their toy away, and stomping it to pieces (toy, that is?) I wonder how they would react!?

That is, if I do not bloot let (have blood drained from me), I will die. I believe I first cioned the term around 2001 when I discovered the gentic mutation that allows one to survuve famine but not the overly indulgent current Western culture. I am a true reverse vamire.

The US is bankrupt. The Stimulus was borrowed money from China. The idea was that all recessions end within 18 months and America would have the money to pay it back from tax revenues, hence the democrats didn't do anything except buy votes with the "Jobs Program" and look like they were doing something. The fact is the US cannot recover. The US shipped the manufacturing base out of this country during Clinton and taxed/regulated any holdouts into insolvency. So no base..service jobs only and government paychecks paying all the gardeners, waitresses and fry cooks. The health care bull was last straw on the camels back. The US cannot afford a "single payer" plan, cannot afford to service the debt and if you had been paying attention..NASA received billions in Stimulus funds but somehow cannot find the funding to pay for its recent projects. Does the word "bankruptcy" mean anything to you? Go read what Greenspan said this week.."The US is crushed by a burden of debt that has never been seen in history." Take your "free health care" and "single payer plan" and shove it right up where your taxes (paid as interest on bonds to the Chinese) are going to come from..

If government run health care is so bad, why do all the Republicans congressmen use it? As federal workers they get 75% of their premiums paid for by the taxpayers. If they really dislike taxpayer funded health insurance, why don't they just drop their government plan and sign up for a private plan like many of us self employed sole proprietors. Sounds like a double standard.. Not good for you, but good for me. And I don't want you to have what I have. At least Democrats legislators support government run health care and think we should all have the same type of plan. But Republican congressmen denounce it in public and then....sign up for it ! Sounds like hypocrisy.. wouldn't you agree. In fact the same might be said for all those senior citizens, local, state and federal employees and veterans who oppose government funded health care. Are they even aware that they are enrolled in and enjoy the benefits of a government run and financed health care system? Wouldn't you think they would drop out and go with private insurance? After all, if government run health care is so bad for freedom and democracy, that seems to be the only patriotic thing to do. I am curious.
