Comment on Businesswoman’s Epic Rant Against Obama by Ron Russell

I've seem Amilya several times on FOX News not only is she attractive, but she is spot on her observations. In short, a great conservative voice. I have a number of political blogs and live just outside of Wesson, MS and try to do my little bit to restore sanity. I write more on national and international issues than I do on local politics. Two of my other politic sites are National Tea Party and Obama Cartoons.

The fact is that most states allow anyone who has access to your social security number and DOB to access your health account with little penalty as long as you cant prove they profited from that information. Your employer, your nosy neighbor and your worst enemy can then use this information recklessly with little recourse. Trust me…my family is living with the fear that an individual who dislikes us holds our gained access to our health providers site and received these files. We must make accessing this information without permission a crime that is civilly and criminally punishable. The Wikileaks scenario is extreme, what if an angry ex gets their hands on your medical files and prescription list and decides to post it on Facebook or send out an anonymous letter to the neighborhood? This has implications for citizens who need medical care, not seeking it out in fear of being exposed . The government doesn’t have the laws in place to protect those records now, why would anyone want to turn those records over to them to protect in full.

Comment on Palin: If Tea Party Were Terrorists, Obama Would Pal Around With Us by Debbie Dean

Reform vs. Elimination
I believe in what this movement stands for, a smaller, more effective and efficient government that does ONLY that which the constitution gives them the authority to do. However, we need to help our elected officials understand where the problems are and provide them with suggestions on how to either eliminate programs or reform them. For example the disability process within the Social Security Administration (SSDI). There is a lot of money that supports this system with some minor changes in regulations and some major changes in philosophy, money can be used more efficiently. One minor change in regulations would be that a person who is under 50 years old, is only entitled to disability if they have a disability that meets a specific medical listing that the Social Security Administration has developed and currently uses for the disability process. This would help reduce the hundreds of applications received, the number of case technicians needed to process the applications, the number of private contractors hired to record or testify at hearings, and all the administrative work that is involved in processing a claim.
That one minor change would save the Social Security Administration millions of dollars each year and would not affect benefits for those who are truly disabled.
Now, to reform the Social Security Disability Income (SSI) would require a major change in philosophy, but I have a suggestion for that too … at another time.
• SSDI- This is a program that all US tax payers have contributed too since beginning work. There is an eligibility requirement that there must be so many quarters of income earnings to receive benefits.
• SSI – This is a program for the poor that US tax payers contribute too, but the recipients have not.
Both are administered by the Social Security Administration’s Office of Disability, Adjudication, and Review.

Comment on Exposing Leftists by reg povey

Why do you tag them as Leftist, they might sign a petition against liberal or leftist comments, it depends how it is presented to them. You are obviously very biased and have slanted this to suit your desired outcome.

Comment on How The Mississippi Delegation Voted On Debt Deal by Senator Brad Carter, Retired

Senator Brad Carter, Retired — Tue, 16 Aug 2011 12:02:28 +0000

With a motor mouth president plus the media there is no way on earth to stop the TEA PARTY reality in the same way that it will take decades to evolve from the democratic party, communism and other parties of the mind. This sent to ‘mturmbull@csm.com’. Unfortunately, none in our delegation understand check book accounting and voted without regard for solvency of the US government.

I am a little dismayed at the votes of our “conservative” team of Mississippi lawmakers. I know why Benny voted against it, but why did Pallazo, who I thought was tea party, vote for this heap of smoking manure?

Comment on The Debt Compromise – Some Simple Questions by Senator Brad Carter, Retired

Senator Brad Carter, Retired — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 11:43:15 +0000

SIGNPOSTS ON THE ROAD TO ARMAGEDDON
Senator N. Brad Carter, JR PE, Retired
The DEBT CEILING is NOT in prophecy within the Bible. But, the DEBT problem is a major factor in the end of age scenario. DEBT is a signpost as believers look for the coming of Jesus. As the USA continues to race toward inflation and devaluation of the dollar, the life style of every American will be less than the year before. At the same time congress will find a way to increase the DEBT CEILING and we should look up! We’re going up! We which are alive [and] remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. (1 Thess 4:17)

Prof. Alexander Frazer Tytler has written, that a democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover they can vote themselves money out of the public treasury. As we consider the myths and misinformation regarding the debt limit being provided by the media I direct you to USA TODAY, JULY 29, 2011.

1. US Debt———$ 14.46 Trillion—We owe the bank (6-29-11).
2. M2 Earning—–$ 7.00 Trillion—Our paycheck fully spent yearly.
3. Someone will NOT get paid or we use the simple fix of printing money.

To the federal budget base line, increase the annual budget. By law the congress must increase the budget over the previous year. Thus, the US congress exceeds and spends more than all taxes + budget increase and the DEBT CEILING MUST continue to go up. Ultimately, US Debt increases more and more with the resulting devaluation of the DOLLAR and inflation. As the bureaucracy continues to expand the people, which make up government, continue to be controlled by simple check book accounting. WHY not use a semblance of check book accounting in the US government.

Less money in the world and we have famine also. Jesus said in Matthew 24:7 there shall be famines. 10,000 people die each day in Somalia, neighboring Kenya and Ethiopia. Inflation will abound when the tribulation period occurs and Revelation 6:6 reads, “A quart of wheat for a day’s wages, and three quarts of barley for a day’s wages.” In other words inflation will be so bad that it will take a days wage to buy a loaf of bread.

If we keep on spending more than the US government takes in and the dollar continues to devalue, how long will it be before the predicted inflation occurs? As a teen in high school five ($5.00) dollars would buy 25 gallons of gas. You know what five dollars will buy in gas today. Gold was $35 an ounce in the 50’s. Today, gold is $1,627.20 July 29, 2011. INFLATION!!

Government is the body of persons that constitute the governing authority of a political unit or organization. God says to each person in Rom 13:8, let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another.

During the rebuilding of the walls around Jerusalem, Nehemiah heard the outcry and the charges regarding debt from the people and he said, “ I was very angry.” Nehemiah recorded in 5:5, “We have to subject our sons and daughters to slavery. Some of our daughters have already been enslaved, but we are powerless, because our fields and our vineyards belong to others.” Who actually owns USA Treasury Debt—Foreign central banks 33%—The financial sector 24%—The Federal Reserve 14%—The Foreign Private 13% It should be noted that China holds $1.1 Trillion in treasury debt that equates to 8% of total US debt. (Financial News, Elizabeth Pfeuti, 28 Jul 2011—Source) Congress increased the DEBT CEILING, did not fix the problem with the solution you and I live by such as a balanced budget. The US credit rating will soon be lowered as a result of debt ratio to income. If it will cause death we know it is foolish to over spend, to over eat or engage in harmful activities. Congress did absolutely NOTHING to stop the death of the DOLLAR.

Comment on The Debt Compromise – Some Simple Questions by Terry McMillan

Terry McMillan — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 23:33:08 +0000

Doctor, I have the exact same symptoms.

I pray that these were the feelings of our founders as they rose up onto the steed of principle – a constrained government that allows the arms of liberty to lift all. All who will stand in the presents of liberty rather than sell themselves into the enslavement of dependency.
