WEDNESDAY MUSINGS - #28

HA, HA FOR TODAY:

LEGAL QUOTES:

Recently reported in the Massachusetts Bar Association Lawyers Journal the following questions were actually asked of witnesses by attorneys at trials. This is just another indication that even our brilliant lawyers are morons.

1.) “Now doctor, isn’t it true that when a person dies in his sleep, he doesn’t know about it until the next morning?”

2.) “The youngest son, the twenty-year old, how old is he?”

3.) “Were you present when your picture was taken?”

4.) “Were you alone or by yourself?”

5.) “Was it you or your younger brother who was killed in the war?”

6.) “Did he kill you?”

7.) “How far apart were the vehicles at the time of the collision?”

8.) “You were there until the time you left, is that true?”

9.) “How many times have you committed suicide?”

PRAY TELL, ARE THERE ANY SANE INDIVIDUALS WHO CAN STEP IN AN RUN THE COUNTRY?

I think it is true, the inmates ARE running the asylum. Morons and complete idiots have taken over every aspect of governmental control of the United States, from the local and State level all the way to the upper echelons of the federal government. If you doubt this, just take a look at some of the laws, statutes, regulations and official policies that have already been enacted and those that are awaiting to be voted on in city councils, town boards, State and national legislatures, then ask yourselves, “Would normal intelligent individuals vote for such crap?”

The United States is being steered down the path of destruction by a bunch of insane dweeps that put all together, don’t have the mental I.Q. of an amoeba. I have to concur with Dr. Lyle Rossiter, an eminent psychiatrist, who states; “Liberal ideology is a mental disorder.” Rossiter says; “Based on strikingly irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine the most important principles on which our freedoms were founded. Like spoiled angry children, they stomp their feet and rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a ‘nanny state’ government meet all their needs from cradle to grave.”

Do you honestly think that if our ‘esteemed’ legislators really understood human nature and had even a modicum of common sense, would create a society with rules and laws that over-regulates and over taxes the nation’s citizens, and morally and ethically corrupts their character and reduces them to nothing more than wards of the state – the way the liberals do?

Here are a few examples of what I mean:

A.) As the cost of a barrel of oil kept climbing, those in charge said, “We need to look toward renewable energy resources, such as bio-fuels,” thus, farmers started selling the bulk of their corn and wheat crops to be used to make bio-fuels.

Result: The cost of all food products started climbing through the roof, especially meats, butter, milk, cheese, etc., why? Because there were less feed grains to feed livestock, so live stock feed prices rose, which affected the price of meats and other products.

B.) What caused crude oil prices to rise in the first place? Well, those in charge said that there was an increased demand for oil by developing nations, such as India and China, which caused the increase in price for oil.

Yes, but who was it that demanded that we help other nations, such as India and China, to become developing nations? OUR GOVERNMENT! Why didn’t they stop to think that if China and India, along with other third world countries became “developed”, that it would put an added strain on the world’s energy resources?

C.) With every “free trade” agreement that the imbeciles in Washington, D.C. signed, they kept telling us that free trade and competition was good for America’s economy and good for business. Now please forgive my stupidity, but doesn’t free trade mean that we import goods from other countries without levying high import taxes on their goods, and they import goods from us without levying high import taxes on our goods? Well, apparently I am wrong; it means that our manufacturing companies move to the country that we signed the free trade agreement with, to take advantage of cheap labor.

Result: More and more American citizens lose good paying jobs, while the lower paying service oriented jobs are given to illegal immigrants, and the standard of living for all Americans goes down.

D.) This one is rich. As the price of gasoline climbed to over $4.00 a gallon due to the rise in crude oil prices, those in the know and in charge, informed us that in order to bring gasoline prices down, we all needed to cut way back in our driving to reduce the demand for gasoline, so, like dutiful citizens, we complied. According to recent statistics on Fox News, Americans have driven several billion miles less over the past month, which has caused gasoline prices to start coming down.

Result: Our government now says that “Since people are filling up their gas tanks fewer times, we aren’t getting enough money in gas tax revenues to repair roads and infrastructure.” So what is their brilliant solution? Raise the gasoline tax which will bring the price of gasoline back up, putting us right back where we were, “high gas prices.” What is the matter; they can’t cut all of the useless ‘pork barrel’ spending instead and use that money toward road and infrastructure repair? Oh, I’m sorry, I forgot, that would require thinking to reach that conclusion.

E.) Now here is a scary one for you, especially in light of the fact that the liberals are pushing for “UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE”. This is from the State of Oregon. Oregon has a State subsidized health care system. They also are the only State that has legalized ‘doctor assisted suicide’. A man who is a citizen of Oregon has a deadly form of cancer, which requires ‘chemo-therapy’. The man’s doctor says the patient “may have a chance of living five-years” if he has the chemo.

After submitting an application for the State funded insurance help for the chemo, the man received a letter from the health insurance system, telling him: “Chemo-therapy” is far too expensive for us to pay for it considering that you ‘may only have a five-year life expectancy, so therefore, we cannot pay for it. However, we will be more than happy to cover the cost of your doctor-assisted suicide, if you wish.” This is not made up folks; it was on Fox News this morning.

The State of Washington is now contemplating enacting a similar system and both Oregon and Washington are trying to influence the State of California to do likewise, so as to “add legitimacy” to their systems of health care. Could this be what we will all face if “Universal Health Care” is enacted in America?

Besides, universal health care will mean a huge increase in taxes placed on all Americans to pay for it, and the Liberals have already promised that they will make it available to illegal immigrants as well.

Add to this all of “Gay-Rights”, abortion rights, and ‘hate-crime’ legislation, along with all of the ‘politically correct’, inclusiveness and toleration legislation, and you can see where this country is headed.

The liberal nut cases have managed to morally, ethically and financially bankrupt America, while at the same time, pushing us ever closer to a ‘one world police state nanny government’.

Dear Lord, please wake me up and tell me this is all just a bad dream!
