Republican Health Care

Or Watch What You Eat.

A Daily Agitation

Before I begin I want to inform those that are not political junkies such as myself…..Sotomayor will be confirmed…the CIA has been carrying out covert ops since its inception…..now you can give your mind a break from the cable catnip that is playing daily.

The health care issue is being hotly debated…both sides are trying desperately to be heard.  The Repubs have offered up their special plan for health care it is called ” The People’s Choice Act”,  in case you would like to check it out.

I read it and since I have plenty of time to comtemplate the stuff that was put into it…I would like to talk about the part that got my attention over most of the other stuff.  It is the part on food stamps and nutrition.  Paragraph 1 in this section reads:

(1) IN GENERAL- Not later than 6 months after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Agriculture shall, based on scientific, peer-reviewed recommendations provided by a Commission that includes public health, medical, and nutrition experts and the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, develop lists of foods that do not meet science-based standards for proper nutrition and that may not be purchased under the food stamp program. Such list shall be updated on an annual basis to ensure the most current science-based recommendations are applied to the food stamp program.

Okay with that posted it sounds like the “Food police” will be looking into your eating habits.  According to this, unhealthy foods could be bought with food stamps…that will mean that since the healthy foods are more expensive that the poor’s food dollar will not go as far in feeding their family.  I have written posts stating that healthy foods should be made more attractive to the poor by making them less expensive than the unhealthy varieties.  But just making it illegal to buy certain foods will not make them healthier.  Just like making drugs illegal did not make their use go away.

One of my more avid readers, Sue, had a good point….let the ones making these outrageous acts, have to live on the same amount that the people getting food stamps would have to do…..then these millionaires might learn some humility, by learning that they are morons for even attempt such crap.

More Cowards Come Out Of The Woodwork

A Daily Agitation

A few days ago I posted on an article that I had read about some Captain that was wussing out of his deployment saying that Obama was not legally the prez…..a moron?  You bet your butt he is…..but he is not alone as was reported by USA Today on line:

There are some more twists and turns this morning in the ongoing saga of an Army reservist who has challenged his ordered deployment to Afghanistan by arguing that President Obama is not a legal citizen of the United States and is therefore ineligible to be president and commander-in-chief.

A retired two-star general and an active reserve Air Force lieutenant general have now joined the case, the Ledger-Enquirer newspaper of Columbus, Ga., which originally broke the story.

Cook’s lawyer, in revising the original filing, now argues that the issue is not moot and adds that retired Maj. Gen. Carol Dean Childers and active U.S. Air Force reservist Lt. Col. David Earl Graeff have joined the suit “because it is a matter of unparalleled public interest and importance and because it is clearly a matter arising from issues of a recurring nature that will escape review unless the Court exercises its discretionary jurisdiction.”

This is just silly sh*t brought up by morons……that was harsh to call them morons….okay….f*cking COWARDS…do you like that title better?

Hey dipsticks…he was born in Hawaii unless you do not consider the island of yuppies and rich a/holes a state…then maybe.

The Boobs Have It!

Sotomayor…Sanford…CIA….blah…blah…yada…yada

With all the boring sh*t behind us…it is Sexy Sunday.

Okay I saw this story when reading Brit news the other day and felt I just had to add my 2 cents worth in here.

Chantal Marshall and four of her daughters have had NINE boob jobs between them, making them the British family to have had the most breast surgery – bra none!

While most mums and their daughters enjoy shopping trips together, Chantal, 50, and her daughters have spent nearly £40,000 on visits to cosmetic surgeons to have their breasts enlarged.

Ripley, 18, Tara, 22, Terri, 25, Emma, 28, and mum-of-nine Chantal, of Kirkby-in-Ashfield, Notts, now boast chest sizes ranging from 34DD to 32GG.

Mum ChantalAge: 50; No of ops: 3; Spent: £13,500

CARER and mum-of-nine Chantal is a petite Size 10 and was 34B before her first op. She is now a 34DD.

She says: “Having nine children left my boobs looking like milk bottles. In 1996, after I had my seventh child, I had my first set of implants but I ended up even more unhappy.

EMMA

Age: 28; No of ops: 2; Spent: £9,500

Emma is a beauty therapist and is a Size 12. Before her first enlargement she was a 34B. She is now a 34F.

RIPLEY

Age: 18; No of ops: 1; Spent: £4,500

Ripley, 18, fashion and design student and trained nail technician. She is a Size 8. Before surgery in March she was a 34C. She went up to a 34DD.

TERRI

Age: 25; No of ops: 1; Spent: £4,500

Terri, 25, is a dancer and lives in Papplewick, Notts. She is a Size 10. Before her boob job she was a 32DD. She is now a 32GG.

TARA

Age: 22; No of ops: 2; Spent: £8,000

Tara, a receptionist, is a Size 10. Before her first boob job she was a 34A. She is now a 34E.

Damn!  I want to say something so clever right now….but all I can think about is a wet t-shirt.  Do not know if I could handle it (no pun intended).

Whorehouse Goes Green

With all the talk about going green…..this story in Reuters tells it all….everybody wants to be part of the new “Green” revolution.

A Berlin brothel has come up with a novel way to negate the impact of the global economic crisis and target a new group of customers at the same time — offering a discount to patrons who arrive on bicycles.”The recession has hit our industry hard,” said Thomas Goetz, owner of the “Maison d’envie” brothel.

“Obviously we hope that the discount will attract more people,” he added. “It’s good for business, it’s good for the environment — and it’s good for the girls.”

Customers who arrive on bicycle or who can prove they took public transportation get a 5-euro ($7) discount from the usual 70-euro ($100) fee for 45 minute sessions, Goetz told Reuters. He said the environmentally friendly offer was working.

“We have around 3-5 new customers coming in daily to take advantage of the discount,” he said, adding the green rebate has helped alleviate traffic and parking congestion in the neighborhood.

Germany is one of the few countries in the world where prostitution is legal. It has about 400,000 prostitutes who, since 2002, have been allowed to enter formal labor contracts.

The above report is from Caroline Copely and bless her heart she does do some great reporting…….

The Sex Academy

Now here is an idea from a story by Reuters:

Wannabe Latin lovers can improve their technique by playing with the erogenous zones of naked mannequins at a new interactive exhibition that has now opened in Berlin.The “Amora sex academy” that opened in Berlin on Thursday welcomes visitors with the wry slogan, “Finally — an exhibition for those who always have to touch everything.”

More than 50 interactive displays guide visitors through the intimate areas of the male and female bodies, offering helpful tips on everything from striptease to oral sex and how to achieve a perfect orgasm.

“A lot of couples come in here together to learn something,” said Uta Barkow, the manager of the Beate Uhse sex chain which is hosting the academy. “It’s been very well received so far. A lot of exhibits have that ‘aha’ effect on a lot of people.”

The show features several life-sized plastic models, naked and in various positions. One female mannequin light ups when touched in the right spot. A voice shrieks “That’s it!” when the visitor manages to put his finger on the elusive G-spot.

Next to it is what the museum called its “Spank-o-meter.” It measures the level of pleasure a mannequin receives when spanked with a leather whip.

“So far we’ve had just as many women in here as men,” Barkow said. “Women coming in tend to have fewer inhibitions while the men tend to be a bit more embarassed.”

The museum also shows film clips of various sexual positions, including the “Italian chandelier” that the viewer learns can burn up to 920 calories per hour.

Founded by Frenchman Johan Rizki, the sex academy opened in London earlier this year and is also due to come to Barcelona.

Coming to America?

But Officer……….

Always fun to see a good sex story…..and then there are the ones like this from the AP:

The car was a-rockin’, and the law went a-knockin’.Bexar (BAYR) County sheriff‘s deputies drawn by the actions of an amorous couple in a parked car allegedly found more than l’amour.

Deputy Ino Badillo (bah-DEE’-yoh) tells the San Antonio Express-News they also found enough equipment and chemicals in the car Thursday night to start a methamphetamine lab.

Badillo says deputies checked out the car after neighbors reported it parked in an unusual spot, just northeast of San Antonio.

He says 26-year-old Timothy Overly and 25-year-old Candace Prewitt have been charged with public lewdness and manufacture of a controlled substance.

One Way To Quit Smoking

Government is trying to force Americans to be more healthy and to stop smoking…..their attempts are not producing the results that they would like…at least not as quickly as they want.  But I read an article the other day that would put the liomber in your Johnson and be a hell of an incentive to stop smoking.

A New Hampshire man says he swiped his debit card at a gas station to buy a pack of cigarettes and was charged over 23 quadrillion dollars. Josh Muszynski checked his account online a few hours later and saw the 17-digit number — a stunning $23,148,855,308,184,500 (twenty-three quadrillion, one hundred forty-eight trillion, eight hundred fifty-five billion, three hundred eight million, one hundred eighty-four thousand, five hundred dollars).

That could give a person a stroke and that would permanently stop the urge to light up.

There is a bit of good news from this story:

Muszynski says he spent two hours on the phone with Bank of America trying to sort out the string of numbers and the $15 overdraft fee.

The bank corrected the error the next day.

As absurd as this story is the part that amazed me was the $15 overdraft fee……you mean that nowhere in the huge bank of computers that a red flag was not triggered by a $23 quadrillion charge….I mean we are talking about more money than all the cash in the world…and nowhere was this noticed?

Or maybe we should let him put the cost of Health care on his card……

All is well that ends well……..

How Not To Cool Off

In the South where I live this has been a bitch of a summer with heat indices up around 105 to 112…it really…really sucks!  But I had thought of getting naked as a way to cool off…but then I saw this story in the Associated Press:

LINCOLN, Neb. – Lincoln police arrested a man who they said made up a story about being robbed to explain why he was walking around a city park naked. Police spokeswoman Katie Flood said the man was arrested and jailed Wednesday night on suspicion of indecent exposure and making a false statement to police.

Police found the man naked in a southwest Lincoln city park on Monday. He told police a man with a gun tried to rob him, but he did not have any money, so the robber took his clothes.

Flood said the man really took off his clothes because he was hot. He walked around naked for about an hour, but afterward, he couldn’t find his clothes.

This is one of my favs…and this guy is in the running for moron of the week……

A Disgusting Smear Campaign

The Associated Press had reported on a most disgusting individual and his technique of protest.

ELGIN, Iowa – A man faces criminal mischief charges after he allegedly defecated on a downtown Elgin sidewalk and smeared feces on the door of a building. Authorities said the building houses the Valley Community Coalition. Officials believe the man targeted the organization, but they aren’t sure why.

Matthew J. Sodoma, 21, was arrested early Thursday and was also charged with defecating on a public sidewalk or building

Fayette County Sheriff Marty Fisher said the man’s action defies the basic morals of the community and was unacceptable.

Authorities said the charges are misdemeanors and are punishable by a fine between $65 and $650 and up to 30 days in jail.

Damn!  I would like to know what pised this guy so much….I would suggest that he also be forced into anger management…..jusr a thought.

Damn! I Love This Woman!

I have been working on a piece about what it is to be a liberal republican and so far Meghan McCain is my pick to be the lead voice for the liberal republicans.  (see below)

Recently in an interview my favorite blond said when asked about the symbol of the “everymen”, Joe the Plumber:

“Joe the Plumber — you can quote me — is a dumbass. He should stick to plumbing.”

Damn!  I love this woman!

I had complained that liberal republicans do not have a media spokesperson…we have NO Hannerity or Inghram or yada yada and then I saw another quote from Miss McCain:

McCain also said she’d “be flattered to be considered the anti-Ann Coulter, the anti-Rush Limbaugh.”

Damn! I love this woman!

I was leaning towards Joe Scarborough as a possible voice for the liberal Republicans, but I think that Miss McCain would be a better leader….she has style, brains and will appeal to the young, something the GOP has not done in a very long time.

If anyone is interested in Miss McCain then she can be found at http://mccainblogette.com.

Drop by and offer your support for her;  she is the future of the GOP.
