Post-American Presidency.

Our very different views of victory.
When Bush was president, the Taliban were kicked out of Afghanistan and crazy Harry Reid was screaming "the war is lost."
Now with Obama in charge, the Taliban is back in Afghanistan, Kerry is groveling before them, and these democratic socialists are declaring victory.
With that in mind, there should be no reaching across any aisle for this bunch. They should be rounded up and either thrown in jail or an insane asylum.

Personal and Professional.
Lately I've been plagued by a nagging toothache. I tried to ignore it at first, since it was very mild, and then I took some antibiotics since dentists lately like to prescribe antibiotics as an adjunct to their drilling. After not achieving any relief from the antibiotics, I finally went to my dentist and the x-ray revealed a fair amount of destruction underneath one of my crowns with adjacent bone erosion. I was given 2 options: either put in an implant or grind down 2 nearby teeth to make a crown. She referred me to an oral surgeon, and I scheduled an appointment to talk to him.
When I arrived, I was greeted by the receptionist who demanded 200 dollars up front. I must admit that it was surprising since I knew that no work on this tooth would be done today. I also have descent dental insurance and expected this visit to be covered. My last line of resort was appealing to this man's decency as we both teach at related institutions; I instruct in internal medicine and he instructs oral surgery and there is a good chance of us occasionally running into one another at work. So I asked if he could afford me 5 minutes of his time as a matter of professional courtesy. I was instructed to sit down and the receptionist told me to wait while she asks the doctor about this matter.
For nearly 1 hour I sat wondering if this was his way of trying to get rid of me. Eventually I was asked to come into the office and sit there. We spoke for about 5 minutes, he looked at the x-rays I had brought and discussed what I might expect from an implant versus a bridge. I asked about the price and he said that since I am a physician, he would offer me a discount price of around 3,500 for this implant. I thanked him for his time and went home. In my mind, I still had not decided about which option would serve me better - the implant or a bridge. Bridge can be expected to last about 10 years and the implant about 15.
As I was leaving the office, the secretary said that she was told that my visit would be 100 dollars. Strange, that I assumed this brief consultation would be attributed to professional courtesy, since no work was done and since this was my request before I was led inside. To myself I thought: OK turkey, this was a sneaky way to get a 100 bucks from me but, I am not going to make a scene here. I paid up and left. After some research, I realized that 3,500 for this implant is far from a bargain and therefore will not return to that "colleague" again. In fact, the only thing going through my mind after this visit, was how I would love to see one of his relatives in my practice, charge them an extra 100 dollars and ask them to tell the turkey that it was a special price on the count of their relation. This is the nasty thing about mean spirited acts, they are contagious.
My next stop for today was a visit to my mechanic. I drove up to the garage and told him about a strange screeching sound I noticed when making a right turn. The mechanic asked me to wait for 15 minutes, as he was working on another car, and exactly 15 minutes later he got into the car with me. We drover around the block, he immediately realized what the problem was, drove the car into the garage lifted it up and bent the protective plate behind my wheel so that it would no longer cause this annoying sound. Then, he went for another drive with me to make sure it was fine, and while driving we talked about routine life stuff. At the end, he didn't want to charge me anything because he didn't replace any parts and he thought it was the descent thing to do. I am not in favor of people doing things for free, but every now and then it sure is nice when someone treats you with kindness.
The doctor I saw early today, is sneaky, overvalues his opinions, and dumps where he eats. My mechanic is trustworthy in both, his ability and his honesty.
No wonder people people hate doctors when they run into turkeys like the one I saw today.

Why is Obama arming Jihadists?
Clinton is supposedly goading Obama to intervene in Syria. Obama recently armed Al Qaeda groups in Libya to topple Qaddafi. He is modernizing Egyptian weapons, and his policies help to radicalize much of the Middle East. What enemy is he preparing to take on???
The answer is Israel.
Israel is a thorn in Obama's side and he wants it destroyed. This is where this second term of an abandoned bastard son of the hate-filled Ann Dunham is likely to lead.
His whole upbringing was surrounded by antisemitic, anti-american figures. One of them made his mother into a child whore and anyone can find her early porno pictures. While his mother was prostituted in Hawaii, his parents smoked pot with her abuser. Then, when Obama was still a child, he is likely to have been screwed up the ass by the same individual, referred to as his uncle in the memoirs.
Even if you don't care for Jews and Israel, and Lord knows that many Jews are willfully blind and self destructive, you should care about what happens after the Jews are dealt with. Their role has been that of the canary in the mine, for over a thousand years. The suffering brought to them first, soon follows to the rest.
This is why our "liberal" administration has been upgrading its spy machinery on the average American citizen, while safe guarding the mosques. They are busy at work to create an environment where it is impossible to criticize either Obama's government or Islam. That should make one wonder, if they are one and the same.

Forced Respect
NY Senate passed a bill that makes it a crime to not offer your respect to a cop? What the hell???
This bill - s2402, would make it a crime to be disrespectful and not offer assistance to a cop, punishable by 4 years in prison. This is insane. At a time when the police force has become little more than thugs who get a commission based on the tickets they write out, this insanity gets thrown into the face of every citizen.
I remember when I was a teenager going to a rock concert and on the way there, I met a rookie cop who didn't like something about how I was dressed. As I walked by, the guy yelled insults trying to provoke me to talk back to him. The older cops stood by an snickered.
I am sure that some cops are descent people but there are also immature assholes among them. How could a legislative body not see that this bill - s2402, would be an instrument of abuse by such cops? Below is a quote from the creator of this anti-American garbage, state senator Joe Griffo. A fucking Republican.
"This is a necessary action because we can see from the rise in incidents that too many people in our society have lost the respect they need to have for a police officer. We need to make it very clear that when a police officer is performing his duty, every citizen needs to comply and that refusal to comply carries a penalty.”

Another product of the Democratic party: an idiot.
Representative Raul Grijalva, who earlier managed to defeat a real scientist in the race Congress, plays a pretend scientist in this video.
It's funny to watch, but at some point you have to think: these people are in charge of our economy, our national security, our education, when in a sane world they would be in a locked psychiatric ward. Just imagine this idiot filling your car's gas tank with a bunch of rocks. This is exactly what he and other Democrats are doing to our country.
You may be wondering if this is a parody made to discredit Keystone critics, but it is not. This guy actually believes what he is saying. Sad, sad, sad.
2013: Fundamental Transformation of America
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
