President Obama is expected to announce that the eternal war on the world will have an end. When? He won’t say. I too have an announcement.  I promise my drinking problem will end some day. When? I’m not saying.  But the celebrations of the armistice in 1918 began when plans for it were announced, and the partying continued until it actually happened.  Perhaps that is the best approach here.  As an aid to your festivities, let me present the . . .

The Man in the Pink Suit

And he lived like one. In 1955, the Guinness Book of World Records named Liberace the world’s highest paid musician. His Emmy-winning television show was more popular than I Love Lucy . But his popularity plummeted amid tabloid insinuations about the “hennaed, perfumed, sequin-jacketed … mama’s boy in curls.” When a libel settlement and brief, well-publicized engagement failed to quash the gay rumors, Liberace adopted a more conventional look, straightening his wavy hair and donning sober Brooks Brothers suits. The makeover flopped. By 1963, he was back in bugle beads, and his career rebounded.

Fear Itself

FROM News Source http://leftblogtweets.com/2013/05/fear-itself/

The paranoia quotient was unusually high. People who had shown up outside the IRS, bureaucrats occasionally glancing down at them, were shy about revealing their identifies. A half-dozen activists, happy enough to talk, would only give me their first names. Another man walked the perimeter wearing a paper bag with holes cut out for visibility: His “mask of intimidation and fear.” And another activist, a man wearing a T-shirt with the visage of the late Andrew Breitbart, briefly argued with a cameraman—“film my shirt, not my face”—before wrapping his head in a green scarf.

According to the nation’s insurers, a lot more — in the individual market an average of double what we pay now with some rates soaring by more than 400 percent. That’s what the nation’s 17 largest insurers told the House Energy & Commerce Committee. You can see the whole report here . “Internal cost estimates from 17 of the nation’s largest insurance companies indicate that health insurance premiums will grow an average of 100 percent under Obamacare ,” reported the Washington Examiner . “ [S]ome will soar more than 400 percent , crushing the administration’s goal of affordability.” “The report said existing customers in the individual market can expect rate hikes of 73 percent,” wrote The Hill . “[N]ew customers’ premiums will cost 96 percent more. Small businesses could see rates climb by 50 percent, according to data from one insurer.” Health & Human Services Secretary Sebelius herself admitted premiums will increase for Americans . See Energy & Commerce’s state-by-state breakdown to get an idea of the higher costs ahead under ObamaCare, and read more in the report here . With all the new “ mandates, taxes, and fees ,” as well as a tower of new regulations (seriously — a red tape tower ), ObamaCare is undermining our economy by driving prices up and making it harder for small businesses to hire . Then of course, there’s this: the IRS will “ play a dominant role in health care ” under the president’s law.

Ayn Rand USA: In 20 Years Corporate Profits Are Up 4X and Their Taxes Have Fallen by 50% — Meanwhile the Workers’ Payroll Tax Has Doubled

Ayn Rand’s novel “Atlas Shrugged” fantasizes a world in which anti-government citizens reject taxes and regulations, and “stop the motor” by withdrawing themselves from the system of production. In a perverse twist on the writer’s theme the prediction is coming true. But instead of productive people rejecting taxes, rejected taxes are shutting down productive people. Perhaps Ayn Rand never anticipated the impact of unregulated greed on a productive middle class. Perhaps she never understood the fairness of tax money for public research and infrastructure and security, all of which have contributed to the success Article source: http://feeds.feedblitz.com/~/41093384/0/alternet~Ayn-Rand-USA-In-Years-Corporate-Profits-Are-Up-X-and-Their-Taxes-Have-Fallen-by-Meanwhile-the-Workers-Payroll-Tax-Has-Doubled

President Barack Obama genuinely believed he could buck the second-term curse of fecklessness and scandal that afflicted the last three two-term presidents, even if history — and his adversaries — suggested otherwise. The combination of clever and determined Republican resistance on nearly every front, bad luck, Obama’s overconfidence in his capacity to leverage a decisive reelection victory into legislative clout and his own administration’s past mistakes have left the president feeling deeply frustrated, even angry — and eager to find a way to recapture the offensive.

Welcome to the Club: Democrats “Nervous,” “Concerned” About “Complex,” Confusing, “Train Wreck” ObamaCare

Here’s what one viewer had to say about this movie- “The Lamp is an inspiring story about the power of the human spirit to create from within. Trost Moving Pictures does an amazing job of winding the story line through each character. An excellent and inspiring message for viewers of any age. Great message!!! Enjoy!!!”Lynne J Baecker Find out more and pick up a copy of this DVD for your family! CLICK HERE The Democrats who stitched together ObamaCare and shoved it into law are starting to admit, one-by-one, the whole thing is a mess – “complex,” “confusing,” and heading for a “ huge train wreck ”: “NERVOUS” : The New York Times says Democrats are “getting nervous that they could pay a political price if the rollout of the law was messy or if premiums went up significantly.” “CONCERNED” : Rep. Lloyd Doggett (D-TX) admitted in Politico , “I’m concerned — because we did take substantial criticism for putting this plan in place — that it achieve its true purpose.” “COMPLEX” : Sen. Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) – “one of the main architects of Obamacare” – says the law has to be implemented right the first time or “it will just simply get worse,” per National Review . It’s “probably the most complex piece of legislation ever passed,” Rockefeller said. “CONFUSION” : “‘I think there is a lot of confusion,’ Rep. Diana DeGette of Colorado, a chief deputy whip for House Democrats and a vocal supporter of the law,” said to Politico . “TRAIN WRECK” : Sen. Max Baucus (D-MT), a “top Democrat who helped write President Barack Obama’s health care law … fears it is headed for a ‘huge train wreck,’” reported AP . “NO IDEA WHAT TO DO” : “We are hearing from a lot of small businesses in New Hampshire that do not know how to comply with the law,” said Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) . Sen. Baucus similarly said, “Small businesses have no idea what to do, what to expect,” reported The Hill . “THIRD-WORLD EXPERIENCE” : Forbes quoted Henry Chao from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services saying, “I’m pretty nervous—I don’t know about you.” The administration official worried aloud about preventing ObamaCare from becoming a “third-world experience.” Democrats are right to be worried about the law not achieving what they promised. For one, a recent survey of small businesses found “71% say the law makes it harder for them to hire more employees.” It’s also driving up costs – 77 of small business owners “say the health care law will make coverage for their employees more expensive.” The Energy & Commerce committee found “Americans earning as little as $25,000 will still pay more.” For “young adults, the premium spike will be even more painful.” Then there are low-income and minority seniors who could see their benefits (or entire plans) stripped away. “Even the people who wrote the law don’t believe” that “if you like the insurance you have, you’ll be able to keep it,” notes the Wall Street Journal . That’s why, going back to 2009, the “Democrats who passed ObamaCare tried repeatedly to exempt themselves or their key aides.” And of course, there’s all of the new spending , higher taxes , and additional debt that will be racked up under the health care law. Yep, sounds like a train wreck, alright … for everybody.

Mother Theresa’s Masochism: Does Religion Demand Suffering to Keep People Passive?

FROM News Source http://leftblogtweets.com/2013/04/mother-theresas-masochism-does-religion-demand-suffering-to-keep-people-passive/

With a new Pope at the helm, the Catholic hierarchy has set about to polish its tarnished image. Can an increased focus on the poor make up for the Church’s opposition to contraception and marriage equality or its  sordid  financial and sexual affairs? The Bishops can only hope. And pray.  And perhaps accelerate the Article source: http://feeds.feedblitz.com/~/40576740/0/alternet~Mother-Theresas-Masochism-Does-Religion-Demand-Suffering-to-Keep-People-Passive

Simon Maloy: Live Action’s Latest Abortion Clinic Undercover Video A Bust

FROM News Source http://leftblogtweets.com/2013/04/simon-maloy-live-actions-latest-abortion-clinic-undercover-video-a-bust/

The anti-abortion rights group Live Action released today an undercover video claiming to reveal “illegal and inhuman practices” at an abortion clinic in New York City, and accused a doctor at the clinic of committing murder. The video reveals nothing of the sort, and actually undermines Live Action’s baseless allegations that the clinic is performing illegal procedures and endangering the lives of patients. Live Action and its founder, Lila Rose, have a long, disreputable history of perpetrating hoaxes and concocting false allegations against abortion rights supporters, Planned Parenthood in particular.

Lady Liberty’s Watching You

FROM News Source http://leftblogtweets.com/2013/04/lady-libertys-watching-you/

Liberty Island took such a severe battering during Sandy that it has stayed closed to the public ever since—thwarting the prospect of a pilot of the new software. But the statue, which attracts more than 3 million visitors annually according to estimates, is finally due to open again on July 4. In March, Statue of Liberty superintendent Dave Luchsinger told me that plans were underway to install an upgraded surveillance system in time for the reopening. “We are moving forward with the proposal that Total Recall has come up with,” he said, adding that “[new] systems are going in, and Article source: http://feeds.slate.com/click.phdo?i=acda62d271b90de2dbcb2d12d115473e

Washington Post Aids Anti-Abortion Rights Smear Campaign With Falsehood

FROM News Source http://leftblogtweets.com/2013/04/washington-post-aids-anti-abortion-rights-smear-campaign-with-falsehood/

Washington Post political writer Melinda Henneberger falsely suggested that a woman depicted in an undercover video issued by the anti-abortion rights group Live Action was never asked whether she was sure she wanted a legal late-stage abortion despite the “apparent qualms” the woman demonstrated. Henneberger’s falsehood aids the group’s attempt to smear an abortion clinic as using practices similar to those of Dr. Kermit Gosnell, the Philadelphia abortion provider facing multiple murder charges resulting from the monstrous and horrific procedures he is alleged to have carried out under the guise of women’s reproductive health.
