You don’t support our President because of an issue thats been around for 7 years?

Then its time for you to join the ranks of the republican party.. President Christie certainly will
curtail all electronic surveillance programs within 30 days of taking office..

If you don’t think Tea Baggers, Right wing racists, Fundamentalist, Moderate Republicans, Xenophobic
Nationalists, Wall Street. Corporations and banks, MSM wont close ranks around Christie, you better think again.. He will be our next President..

Lets remind ourselves of the debate we had in 2006.. This link sums it up perfectly.
Just perfectly..

Today I called Anthem B.C. to tell them.....

I’m canceling!!! On S.S. for a year and was being charged $500 a month with a $7,000 deductible.. Saving approximately $15,000 of savings before I reach 65...Been paying into Blue Cross for 20 years
and cost them a kidney stone operation in in late 90’s. nothing else.

One of the top days in my life... Should have heard the rep. trying to give me reasons to stay. Oh,”How the new plans are going to be so much richer”.. “How your current plan will be grandfathered in to avoid and increases.” WTF? It was precious..

Why, Because there is a plan in L.A. Called," Heathy Way La” which the intake Counselor stated had received a ton of medicaid money for people who could prove their incomes were below a certain level.

I’m wondering if Obamacare had some part in this or it just because Cal. new surplus allowed the influx.

Anyway, My low income of S.S. only qualifies me easily. I can pick one L.A. County facility and use their services for anything with no dectuctable...County Hospitals can also be used.

I just wish everybody had access to this program..In LA. County call 1-877-333-4952 for info...
My feelings are that these programs are available in many Counties right now and people just don’t
are not aware... This also might be true across the U.S.
My final thoughts, fuck our for profit Healthcare system and those who support them!

Seriously, someone please give me the skinny.

Wasn’t the electronic surveillance program started under the Bush Administration?
Isn’t Obama just rubber stamping this program and wouldn’t the CIA be actively supporting this program year after year explaining to the Civilian Chiefs how important this spying is to our Nation’s Security?

Finally, what would have happened if there was an attack on U.S. soil after Obama took steps to dismantle the program.. I’ll tell you.... we would have lost the Senate and Presidency within 2 1/2 years..


Anyway, I’m very disappointed with my President with regards to many issues.. However I have a suspicion that things are not always as they seem..

Perhaps the President is pissing us all off enough to get rid of the right wing dem. crowd in our party.
Would you not be surprised if he offered his support for Warren over Clinton..

I donno, just asking.. Really I’m asking.. I’m not such a smart guy...

Received this from the White House this a.m.

Lets stop the Arne Duncan, Michelle Rhee Bullshit, Bill Gates Privatization Bullshit.
The easiest way to bring these kind of programs to schools across the nation is by funding
at the Local, State. and Federal level..
Show the Schools the money and this stuff will happen...

Cutting edge classrooms

President Obama is on his way to North Carolina to see how one middle school is developing a cutting edge curriculum that embraces technology and digital learning -- and talk about the way we can bring that kind of innovation to more classrooms across the country.

As soon as that event concludes, we're hosting a national show and tell with high tech schools from around the country. Students and teachers will demonstrate how they're using connected classrooms to improve the education system.

And we want you to be part of that discussion. Watch live as it happens at 3:30 today!

What: National Show and Tell on connected classrooms

When: Thursday, June 6 at 3:30 PM ET

If you claim to be a conservative...



This is who represents you politically.
This is a person who you admire intellectually.
This is a person who has the same family values as you.
This is a person who represents your spirituality.

This is just fucking you.. Perhaps in a costume.. but it is you!
Congrats.

Am I crazy?

Weren’t there some liberal groups audited by the IRS?
When Rove asked Plouffe for some Liberal Groups audited by the IRS couldn’t he have named a few..

When the fuck will the Dems. ever be able to handle a republican on MSM correctly? Shut their “Gersh Gallop Technique” off with a smack down.. “Excuse me Karl you are dead wrong and please don’t interrupt me when I’m talking, seems to be a habit with you, Karl"..

And also they need to control the moderator ( that little shit, who once stood for something) who seem always
to favor right wing idiots..

This is so fucked up!

Why are some lives more important than others?.. Poor being turned away from healthcare funded by Medicade. Meals on Wheels devastated from cuts.. Children school lunch program’s cut....
WTF is wrong with this Country?

I guess it is “If it don’t effect me, who gives a shit”.
