A Dead Horse Tale

Image via Wikipedia

Young Chuck in Montana bought a horse from a farmer for
$100. The farmer agreed to deliver the horse the next day.

The next day he drove up and said, 'Sorry son,
but I have some bad news, the horse died.'

Chuck asked the farmer to give him his money back.

The farmer said, 'Can't do that. I went and spent it already.'

Chuck said, 'Ok, then, just bring me the dead horse.'

The farmer asked, 'What ya gonna do with him?

Chuck said, 'I'm going to raffle him off.'

The farmer said, 'You can't raffle off a dead horse!'

Chuck said, 'Sure I can, Watch me. I just
won't tell any body he's dead.'

A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and
asked, 'What happened with that dead horse?'

Chuck said, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500
tickets at two dollars a piece and made a
profit of $998.

The farmer said, 'Didn't anyone complain?'

Chuck said, 'Just the guy who won. So I gave him
his two dollars back.'

Chuck grew up and works now for the government. He
was the one who figured
out the government bail out plan..

US Health Care Reform

Congressman John Fleming ( Louisiana physician) has proposed an amendment that would require congressmen and senators to take the same healthcare plan they force on us

Under the current draft of the Democrat healthcare legislation, members of Congress are curiously exempt from the government-run health care option, keeping their existing health plans and services on Capitol Hill.

If Members of Congress believe so strongly that government-run health care is the best solution for hard working American families, I think it only fitting that Americans see them (Congress) lead the way. Public servants should always be accountable and responsible for what they are advocating.


Congressman Fleming is encouraging people to go on his Website and sign his petition (very simple - just first, last and email). I have immediately done just that at: http://fleming.house.gov/ .

Please urge as many people as you can to do the same!

If Congress forces this health care program on the American people, then Congress should have to accept the same level of health care for themselves and their families.

The AMA's View On The Obama Plan

This is taken from an email I just received as a result of all the health care reforms in the US.

The American M edical Association has weighed in on the new health care plan being developed by the Obama Team. The Allergists voted to scratch it, but the Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves.

The Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it, but the Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve.

The Obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a misconception.

Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted.

Pathologists yelled, "Over my dead body!" while the Pediatricians said, 'Oh, Grow up!'

The Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness, while the Radiologists could see right through it.

Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing The Internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow, and the Plastic Surgeons said, "This puts a whole new face on the matter."

The Podiatrists thought it was a step forward, but the Urologists were pissed off at the whole idea. The Anesthesiologists thought the idea was a gas, and the Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no.

In the end, the Proctologists won out, leaving the entire decision up to the a** holes in Washington .

USA Health Care Reform?

I just got this email from a friend. It seems the baby boomer generation who did not take care of their health might not live as long as their parents, if this is what will happen. 50 will become a long enough life and if you need medical care after that, "oh well". Read this email. I should have looked it up on Snopes. Let me know what you find out.

FYI
The actress Natasha Richardson died after falling skiing in Canada . It took eight hours to drive her to a hospital. If Canada had our healthcare she might be alive today. We now have helicopters that would have gotten her to the hospital in 30 minutes. Obama wants to have our healthcare like Canada and England.

In England anyone over 59 cannot receive heart repairs or stents or bypass because it is not covered as being too expensive and not needed.


Looks like Obama is sure keeping his word ****CHANGES. We better have our funerals paid up, may be needing it sooner rather than later with no Dr's on our side to keep us healthy. What will this world be like in another 20 YEARS WHEN OUR KIDS ARE READY FOR RETIREMENT? SAD!!!


Please do not let Obama sign senior death warrants

Most of you know by now that the Senate version (at least) of the "stimulus" bill includes provisions for extensive rationing of health care for senior citizens. The author of this part of the bill, former senator and tax evader, Tom Daschle was credited today by Bloomberg with the following statement.

Bloomberg: Daschle says, "health-care reform will not be pain free. Seniors should be more accepting of the conditions that come with age instead of treating them." (Lets see death comes with age. Death comes from living. My comments not part of the original email)

If this does not sufficiently raise your ire, just remember that Senators and Congressmen have their own health care plan that is first dollar or very low co-pay which they are guaranteed the remainder of their lives and are not subject to this new law if it passes.

Please use the power of the internet to get this message out. Talk it up at the grassroots level. We have an election coming up in one year and nine months. We have the ability to address and reverse the dangerous direction the Obama administration and it allies have begun and in the interim, we can make their lives miserable. Lets do it!
If you disagree, don't do anything.

The USA and God

As much as people do not want the US to be one nation under God, I feel that when push comes to shove there are still many people who believe in God and the power of prayer to keep the US a nation under God.
This video is one Congressman's view. He appears to be swimming against the tide of politics in the US.
