NPR's coverage of Public Health Care on Tuesday May 28, 2009

NPR just had an industry hack on saying how horrible public option heath care is. Then, in the next breath says it will destroy private health care.
Now, why in gods name, didn't NPR follow up with the obvious? If public option is so bad, why would it be so popular as to destroy private health care? Certainly if private health care gave better service, the free market would allow them to charge a premium right?
THEN, the stenographer at NPR could come back with a fact or two. Namely, that private health insures would fail because they provide criminally negligent care, and that industrial nations (hell all nations!) with public health care is fantastic. Cheap, universal timely and much, much, MUCH better than what is in the US right now. Why is it a crime to care more about all Americans than american corporations? Because healthcare in America right now is a crime.

Another reason to hate used car dealers: They are republican.

Dishonest is, as dishonest does.

Deist Nation

The primary leaders of the so-called founding fathers of our nation were not Bible-believing Christians; they were deists. Deism was a philosophical belief that was widely accepted by the colonial intelligentsia at the time of the American Revolution. Its major tenets included belief in human reason as a reliable means of solving social and political problems and belief in a supreme deity who created the universe to operate solely by natural laws. The supreme God of the Deists removed himself entirely from the universe after creating it. They believed that he assumed no control over it, exerted no influence on natural phenomena, and gave no supernatural revelation to man. A necessary consequence of these beliefs was a rejection of many doctrines central to the Christian religion. Deists did not believe in the virgin birth, divinity, or resurrection of Jesus, the efficacy of prayer, the miracles of the Bible, or even the divine inspiration of the Bible.

These beliefs were forcefully articulated by Thomas Paine in Age of Reason, a book that so outraged his contemporaries that he died rejected and despised by the nation that had once revered him as "the father of the American Revolution." To this day, many mistakenly consider him an atheist, even though he was an out spoken defender of the Deistic view of God. Other important founding fathers who espoused Deism were George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Ethan Allen, James Madison, and James Monroe.

Why would christian fundementalist lie about that?

Appologies for being so rude to Andy Rooney.

We were in bad form earlier. We forgot that Andy long ago dearly earned his right to say what ever he wishes.

Spc. Zachary Boyd of Fort Worth, Texas, fighting the Taliban in his pink "I love NY" boxer shorts

"Any soldier who goes into battle against the Taliban in pink boxers and flip-flops has a special kind of courage ... I can only wonder about the impact on the Taliban. Just imagine seeing that: a guy in pink boxers and flip-flops has you in his cross-hairs. What an incredible innovation in psychological warfare."

Ya know, in James Bond film intros it’s Bond framed in the barrel of the gun. The blood belongs to the shooter, who gets drilled by Bond and dies.

If I get the analogy right, Nancy Pelosi is James bond, the CIA tried to shoot her but she was too quick for them and they went down instead.

Um, ok.
