This RANT is brought to you as a Public Service Announcement where this American Patriot can hardly show any remorce to what the Liberal News Media seems to important to report on these days. Is America really focused on what is happening in this world we live in?

WHAT THE FUCK?
Like Letterman appologizes to his fans and wife is news worthy? ABC lead off with that non-story this morning on GMA. Give me a f'in brake Disney.. Letterman deserves to be sued and fired from CBS for Sexual Harassment. How can it be anything else but? He got caught with his weinie hanging out buy someone on his staff that thought his behavior was inappropriate. That guy doesn't deserve the $2Million and desrves to rot in jail and so does Letterman. The lawsuits need to come from his sexual partners on his staff that were definately reaching for his wallet a little too low. Like Why would ANY WOMAN want to sleep with him?

He is "one ugly Mutha Fuka" to paraphrase Arnold.


And speaking of another NON News worthy story. The Olympics in Chicago had to be one of the biggest mistakes for the Obamas to go after. Like they stood a chance in hell, when all they had to offer was a crime infested sewer of a city in Chicago.. Even the blacks don't want to live there.

I wonder how the death rate in Chicago compared to the death rate in Afghanistan this year?

Preliminary Chicago police data shows the city's homicide rate increased about 15 percent in 2008 over 2007, with 509 homicides reported in the past year

Last Time I checked in 2008 there was only 155 American Soldiers Killed in Afghanistan. Thus far in 2009 - 239 Americans Died over there.

I have to ask "Mr. President where do your priorities lie these days?" Winter is coming in Afghanistan and Al-qeda will go back inhiding in some cave for the winter. Let's get our troops back to the populas and re-group. Our mission over there cannot end but it has to change. The Taliban is not going away. They need to be given a voice in their government. If you can call it a real government. The phony election was just eye wash for the UN and news media.. Afghans true voice was never heard or fell on deaf ears. I don't agree with the Talibans view, but they have a right to be heard and let the Afghan People decide if they need a voice.

Where is GW when we need him...?
Peace!

Less we forget to Remember September 18th

 

 

GUILTY as charged! Sometimes we get so caught up in our own issues and life that you tend to forget to remember those who should never be forgotten. I tend to associate dates with life’s good things to remember and it is human nature to forget the worse.

 

September 18th has always been associated to great things in History. Like the Birth of the United States Air Force on that date in 1947. When the significance of proven Air Power was adopted by this country and the US Army Air Corps, who success during past wars was surmount to Victory.. Now Victory is a word that isn’t often celebrated.

 

I too share September 18 with that day I came into this world, with little fanfare in humble company. Not everything in History on that date is memorable, that’s for sure. Like the death of Jimmy Hendrix in 1970. Truly a loss to the music world, but marred in history by drug overdose and choking in own vomit..

 

I tend to forget lots of dates, places, names and faces. Even special dates like September 18th come and go on the calendar  Just as recent as 2 years ago on that date my family attended a rally in San Marcos, TX to remember all the POW/MIA’s that haven’t come home. We were drawn closer as a family on that date in the hope that my Step-nephew Pvt. Byron Fouty would have returned home unharmed. My Sister in-law Hilary spoke that day in honor not only Byron and  also the many other Missing and Captured soldiers from Past Wars. We were lucky enough to be surrounded by many good hearted folks on that date. All there or their own free will and choice.. Freedom is a great thing that is often taken for granted.

 

Even though our POW hero gave his life to this nation and was returned home under the worst of circumstances, we must continue to remember and honor those who were and are still missing. When all we got back were the remains from a shallow grave in the middle of the desert, there was some closure and a hint of relief. Relief in knowing that Byron came home, ended the search and worry of his life. Along with his Platoon mate Alex Jimenez, both soldiers remains were returned to their families and they also share a grave in Arlington National cemetery in the same coffin and labeled as commingled remains.

 

The horror of being captured is still in the minds even today of the young warriors in training here in San Antonio at Camp Bullis. The Combat medics were interviewed this past week as part of the POW/MIA remembrance day. The SA Express News Published this article in Today’s news paper:

 

http://www.mysanantonio.com/news/local_news/Medics_ponder_the_unthinkable_on_POWMIA_Day.html

 

So I stand guilty of not remembering those brave souls on that date. During the celebration of my own life. Today, even as I’m volunteering at the Warrior and ....Family.. ..Support.. ..Center.... and I am surrounded by Wounded Warriors their families that are recovering from horrific injuries and wounds from these recent wars, I figured that taking a moment to remember all service men and women in this short blog about not forgetting to remember was worth while.

 

 

 

Peace!

It's been abusy week and a great week for jokes in my emails. Here are a few gems to cheer you up on the Freaky Friday!

A blonde drops off a blouse at the cleaners ... On the way out the door,
The lady at the counter says " Come Again".
The blonde says "Noooo.... It's toothpaste this time ...you nosey bitch."

A very wise man once said,
"You should treat your woman like your vacuum cleaner, when she stops sucking, replace the f' ing bag.”

Our troops in Afghanistan prove
yet again they have retained their sense of humor.
　
One of them sent this:　
"YOU MAY BE A TALIBAN
IF..."
　
1. You refine heroin for a living, but you have a moral objection to liquor.
2. You own a $3,000 machine gun and $5,000 rocket launcher, but you can't afford shoes.
3. You have more wives than teeth.
4. You wipe your butt with your bare hand, but consider bacon "unclean."
5. You think vests come in two styles: bullet-proof and suicide.
6. You can't think of anyone you haven't declared Jihad
against.
7. You consider television dangerous, but routinely carry explosives in your clothing.
8. You were amazed to discover that cell phones have uses other than setting off roadside bombs.
9. You have nothing against women and think every man should own at least two.
10. You've always had a crush on your neighbor's goat.

Dear Abby,

I am a 13 year old girl from ....West Virginia.... and I am still a virgin.
Do you think my brothers are gay?

Sitting by the window of her convent, Sister Barbara opened a letter from home one evening. Inside the letter was a $100 bill her parents had sent.

Sister Barbara smiled at the gesture. As she read the letter by the window, she noticed a shabbily dressed stranger leaning against the lamp post below.

Quickly, she wrote, "Don't despair. Sister Barbara," on a piece of paper, wrapped the $100 bill in it, got the man's attention and tossed it out the window to him. The stranger picked it up, and with a puzzled expression and a tip of his hat, went off down the street.

The next day, Sister Barbara was told that a man was at her door, insisting on seeing her. She went down, and found the stranger waiting. Without a word, he handed her a huge wad of $100 bills.

"What's this?" she asked. "That's the $8,000 you have coming Sister," he replied.

"Don't Despair paid 80-to-1."

A Zebra dies and arrives at the Pearly Gates.. As he enters, he asks St. Peter, 'I have a question that's haunted me all of my days on earth. Am I white with black stripes, or am I black with white stripes?'
St. Peter said, 'That's a question only God can answer.'
So the zebra went off in search of God.
When he found Him, the zebra asked, 'God, please - I must know. Am I white with black stripes, or am I black with white stripes?'
God simply replied 'You are what you are.'
The zebra returned to see St. Peter once more, who asked him, 'Well, did God straighten out your query for you?'
The zebra looked puzzled. 'No sir, God simply said 'You are what you are.''
St. Peter smiled and said to the zebra, 'Well then, there you are. You are white with black stripes.'
The zebra asked St. Peter, 'How do you know that for certain?'
'Because,' said St. Peter, 'If you were black with white stripes,  God would have said, 'You is what you is.'

WARNING: If you laugh at this, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Rev Wright and Obama will be comin after yo white ass!!!


A man is showering up in a locker room with his buddy when he notices his friend  Is very well endowed. 

'Damn, Bob, you're hung!' Jim exclaims.  
'I wasn't always this impressive; I had to Work for it.' 
'What do you mean?' Jim asked. 
'Well, every day for the past two years I've spent an hour each night rubbing it with butter.. I know it sounds crazy but  It actually made it grow 4 inches! You Should try it.' 
Jim agrees and the two say good bye.

 A few months later the two are in the Same locker room and Bob asks Jim  How his situation was.

Hooraay for our guys. Finally Obama has accomplished something proactive in the fight agains terror. Yes this fight continues even though support for the war in Afghanistan is waning at home.. Here is the latest bastard to been the wrong end of a US Helicopter gunship:

MOGADISHU, Somalia - American special operations forces killed an al-Qaida terrorist during a helicopter commando assault in Somalia on Monday, NBC News reported.

U.S. officials told NBC that Saleh Ali Nabhan, suspected in the 1998 U.S. Embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania and the 2002 bombing of a resort hotel in Mombasa, Kenya, was killed when at least one U.S. special operations helicopter opened fire on a suspected al-Qaida convoy south of Mogadishu.

Two men were killed and two others wounded when foreign troops in helicopters strafed a car in a Somali town controlled by Islamist insurgents, The Associated Press reported.

The commando-style action took place in a village near Barawe amid growing fears that al-Qaida is gaining a foothold in this lawless nation.

Two U.S. military officials said forces from the U.S. Joint Special Operations Command were involved. The officials gave no official details about the raid or its target.

Many experts fear Somalia is becoming a haven for al-Qaida, a place for terrorists to train and gather strength — much like Afghanistan in the 1990s. The U.N.-backed government, with support from African Union peacekeepers, holds only a few blocks of Mogadishu, the war-ravaged capital.

All I can add is way to grow some STONES Mr President!
Peace!

Jethros Current Events  9/14/2009

 

In The World

 

It appears the Afghan forces are not holding up to their end of all the previous training and pay.. American Forces once again are having to provide policing of most of the rural towns and villages for the Taliban. Let’s face it once and for all. The Taliban are not going away. They will continue to be religious zealots hell bent on controlling or killing anyone that doesn’t live their way or follow their rules. Until the world accepts them as a political party or force in that sewer of a country the wars will continue. Followers of Islam have fought there for centuries. Only now it’s about opium and heroin.. Why doesn’t the rest of the world legalize or decriminalize it so that the farmers and drug lords under the Taliban rule will benefit or the entire country of Afghanistan will benefit from the tremendous wealth these terrorist bastards are accumulating. AND every Russian, Pakistani, Iranian, European, and American Drug Dealer is making off the worlds thirst for this terrible drug.

 

What ever rock Osama Bin Laden has been hiding under in Pakistan he decided to send out a recorded tape this week stating Obama is too week to defeat them in Iraq and Afghanistan.. Word must have just gotten to him that we changed leaders last fall.. Why doesn't he know that this is old news for most military leaders in the world.. Where is Dick Cheney when we need him?

 

In The US

 

What a terrible end for that young bride murdered at Yale and her body discovered on her wedding day.. Sounds like some sick bastard or co-worker did not want her to marry the other guy.. Sounds like some sorted triangle and I feel for her family and friends..

 
It turns our X Governor Rod Blago-sonofabitch has reached out from his hovel and managed to get one of his former fundraisers to commit suicide. A drug overdose sounds pretty convienent for Blago. "I don't know any more than you know, except that a friend of mine took his life because he refused to submit to the pressure by the government to lie about me," Blagojevich told CNN. "And to think that it comes to something like that begs a lot of questions." So he continue to spew his hatred towards the federal government and even wants to post blame. He needs to look into the mirror for a while on that one..

In Texas

Once again the NFL season is upon us and I will continue my undying non-support for that team in Dallas. You know the one with the owner that saw the same plastic surgeon as Michael Jackson did. Anyhow that team beat Tampa this past weekend.
 
Finally some relief for the suppressive heat and drought here in San Antonio.  Some parts of the area seen over 13 inches of rain in the past 6 days. Unfortunately most drivers here have forgotten how to drive in the rain and the body shops are booming this week. Today’s high is only supposed to be 85. We just may have to break out the jackets today.. It’s amazes me how well the A/C works at the grocery stores when it is not over 100 degrees outside.. *go figure*
 
That is where I see the world from where I’m Sitting.

Peace!

Good Friday Morning. Please take a moment to remember those lost souls on the Anniversay of this terrible Terrorist Attack on US Soil.. *GOD BLESS*

Here are a few gems that I have gotten over the last few weeks in my emails..
It's great to be alive today!

A young woman in  Cheboygan ,  Michigan was so depressed that she decided to end her life by throwing herself into the Straits.  She went to the  Mackinaw  Bridge and was about to leap into the frigid water when a handsome young sailor saw her tottering on the rail, crying.
He took pity on her and said, "Look, you have so much to live for.  I'm off to  Europe in the morning, and if you like, I can stow you away on my ship.  I'll take good care of you and bring you food every day."  Moving closer, he slipped his arm around her shoulders and added, "I'll keep you happy, and you'll keep me happy."
The girl nodded yes.  After all, what did she have to lose?  Perhaps a fresh start in  Europe would give new meaning to her life.  That night, the sailor brought her aboard and hid her in a lifeboat.  From then on, every night, he brought her three sandwiches and a piece of fruit, and they made passionate love until dawn.
Three weeks later, during a routine inspection, she was discovered by the Captain.
"What are you doing here?" the Captain asked.
"I have an arrangement with one of the sailors," she explained.  "I get food and a trip to  Europe , and he's screwing me."
"He certainly is," said the Captain.  "This is the Mackinaw Island Ferry."
His & Hers Diaries - A Canadian Story

HER DIARY

Tonight, I thought my husband was acting weird.  We had made plans to meet at a bar to have a drink.  I was shopping with my friends all day long, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, but he made no comment on it. 

Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he didn't say much.  I asked him what was wrong.  He said, 'Nothing.'  I asked him if it was my fault that he was upset.  He said he wasn't upset, that it had nothing to do with me, and not to worry about it. 

On the way home, I told him that I loved him.  He smiled slightly, and kept driving. I can't explain his behavior.  I don't know why he didn't say, 'I love you, too.'  When we got home, I felt as if I had lost him completely, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore.  He just sat there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seem distant and absent. 

Finally, with silence all around us, I decided to go to bed.  About 15 minutes later, he came to bed.  To my surprise, he responded to my caress, and we made love.  But I still felt that he was distracted, and his thoughts were somewhere else.  He fell asleep - I cried.  I don't know what to do.  I'm almost sure that his thoughts are with someone else.  My life is a disaster.


HIS DIARY

My boat wouldn't start today, but at least I got laid.

THE MEANING OF LIFE IN 13 WORDS:

"Inside every older person is a younger person
wondering what the fuck happened."

The owner of a golf course in Texas was confused about paying an invoice, so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help.
He called her into his office and said, "You graduated from The University of Texas and I need some help. If I gave you $20,000, minus 14%, how much would you take off?"
The secretary thought a moment, then replied, "Everyding but my earrings."




Ralph came home drunk one night, slid into 
bed beside his sleeping wife, and fell into a deep slumber..
He awoke before the Pearly Gates, where St. Peter said, 'You died in your sleep, Ralph..'
Ralph was stunned. 
'I'm dead? No, I can't be! I've got too much to live for. 
Send me back!' 
St. Peter said, 'I'm sorry, but there's only one way you can go back, and that is as a chicken.' 
Ralph was devastated, but begged St. Peter to send him to a farm near his home.. The next thing he knew, he was covered with feathers, clucking, and pecking the ground. 
A rooster strolled past. 'So, you're the new hen, huh? How's your first day here?' 
'Not bad,' replied Ralph the hen, 'but I have this strange feeling inside. Like I'm gonna explode!' 
'You're ovulating,' explained the rooster. 
'Don 't tell me you've never laid an egg before? ' 
'Never,' said Ralph. 
'Well, just relax and let it happen,' says the rooster. 'It's no big deal.' 
Ralph did, and a few uncomfortable seconds later, out popped an egg! 
Ralph was overcome with emotion as he experienced motherhood. He soon laid another egg -- his joy was overwhelming.
As he was about to lay his third egg, he felt a smack on the back of his head, and heard his wife yell..... 
Ralph! Wake up. You shit the bed!'

Diary of a blonde on a cruise
DEAR DIARY: DAY 1 
All packed for the cruise ship -- all my sexiest dresses and make-up. Really excited.
 
DEAR DIARY: DAY 2
Entire day at sea, beautiful and saw whales and dolphins. Met the captain today -- seems like a very nice man.
 
DEAR DIARY: DAY 3 
At the pool today. Also some shuffle boarding and hit golf balls off the deck. Captain invited me to join him at his table for dinner. Felt honored and had a wonderful time. He is very attractive and attentive.

DEAR DIARY: DAY 4 
Won $800.00 in the ship's casino. Captain asked me to have dinner with him in his own cabin. Had a luxurious meal complete with caviar and champagne. He asked me to stay the night but I declined. Told him I could not be unfaithful to my husband.
 
DEAR DIARY: DAY 5 
Pool again today, got sun burnt, and went inside to drink at piano bar for rest of day. Captain saw me, bought me several large drinks. Really is charming. Again asked me to visit his cabin for the night. Again I declined. He told me if I did not let him have his way with me he would sink the ship. I was shocked.
 
DEAR DIARY: DAY 6 
Today I saved 1600 lives.  Twice.

A guy walks into the bedroom carrying a sheep in his arms and says, "Honey, this is the cow I make love to when you have a headache." 

The wife, laying in the bed reading a book, looks up and says, "If you weren't such an idiot, you'd know that's a sheep, not a cow.." 

The guy replies, "If you weren't such a presumptuous b!tch, you'd realize I was talking to the sheep!"



Have a Great Weekend!
Peace!

Greetings to my Readers that still have me in their subscription list.. I have been on an extended Hiatus from Myspace and Blogging due to my employment situtation that has lead me on another quest in my not so wonderful life.

I have stepped away from the Political scene for the last few months on purpose. I am sickened by how detached our representatives have become from what America wants. They tend to forget that they work for us. The news media is full of a bunch of half truths and I have chosen to look at them as a business that is controlled by our government. Ratings Sell comercial time and reporting the truth is no longer necessary to get good ratings.

I have also spent a great deal of time on Facebook lately and have found many new friends in a small circle or corner of the planet. They are real people with real feelings and I have enjoyed getting to know them. You can never have too many friends.

In my daily lifes tasks I have lost sight of who I am and what I want in life. Call it a mid-life crisis or what, but I figure we are only on this planet for a short time and we must discover what it is about us that makes us happy and content.

I have many things in my life to be thankful about and many things wrong as well. I have to spend the next part of my life trying to figure out what I have left to give and what I need to make me happy..

So I'm going to try to express in my blogs what this quest brings for me along the way. If you have ever read any of my previous blogs about searching for that perfect moment in my life, I still remain on this quest and know that I will find many moments along the way..

Also I will throw in a few RANTS and crank up the jokes of my week again, as time permits, along the way..

Peace!

I know it has been a while since I joked around with my readers. But the last few eeks have been nothin to laugh about. My employer filed Chap 11 right after Chrysler did and then GM followed so our Automotive parts hauling stopped..  So I've been looking for work within the U S Government. SO the joke has been on me that I want to work for Obammy and his administration..

So here are some Gems that I have been getting on the email:

A mother and her young son were flying  Southwest Airlines from ..Kansas City.. to ....Chicago.....
The little boy  (who had been looking out the window turned to his mother and asked,  "If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't  big planes have baby planes?"
The mother (who couldn't think of  an answer) told her son to ask the flight attendant.
So the boy  went down the aisle and asked the flight attendant, "If big dogs  have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes  have baby planes?"
The busy flight attendant smiled and said,  "Did your mother tell you to ask me?" The boy said, "Yes, she  did."
"Well, then, you go and tell your mother there are no baby  planes because Southwest always pulls out on time. Have your mother  explain that to you."

Two Texans were out on the range talking about their favourite sex positions. One said, "think I enjoy the rodeo position the best.” I don't think I have ever heard of that one," said the other cowboy. "What is it?" "Well, it's where you get your wife down on all fours and you mount her from behind. Then you reach around and cup each one of her breasts in your hands and whisper in her ear, 'Boy, these feel just like your sister's."' "Then you try to stay on for 8 seconds."



 Snoring problem

A couple has a dog that snores. Annoyed because she can't sleep, the
wife goes to the vet to see if he can help. The vet tells the woman
to tie a ribbon around the dog's testicles, and he will stop snoring.

'Yeah right!' she says. A few minutes after going to bed, the dog
begins snoring, as usual.

The wife tosses and turns, unable to sleep. Muttering to herself,
she goes to the closet and grabs a piece of red ribbon and ties it
carefully around the dog's testicles.

Sure enough, the dog stops snoring! The woman is amazed!

Later that night, her husband returns home drunk from being out
drinking with his buddies. He climbs into bed, falls asleep and
begins snoring loudly. The woman thinks maybe the ribbon might work
on him. So, she goes to the closet again, grabs a piece of blue
ribbon and ties it around her husband's testicles. Amazingly, it
also works on him! The woman sleeps soundly.

The husband wakes from his drunken stupor and stumbles into the
bathroom. As he stands in front of the toilet, he glances in the
mirror and sees a blue ribbon attached to his privates. He is very
confused, and as he walks back into the bedroom, he sees the red
ribbon attached to his dog's testicles.

He shakes his head and looks at the dog and whispers,

'I don't know where we were .... or what we did ... but, by God...

We took First and Second place!'

Negative people

This  is something to think about when negative people are doing their best to rain on your parade. So remember this story the next time someone who  knows nothing and cares less tries to make your life
miserable.

A  woman was at her hairdresser's getting her hair styled for a trip to Rome with her husband..  She mentioned the trip to the hairdresser, who responded:

"Rome? Why  would anyone want to go there? It's crowded and dirty..You're crazy to  go to  Rome. So, how are you getting there?"

"We're  taking Continental," was the reply.  "We got a great rate!"

"Continental?"  exclaimed the hairdresser. " That's a terrible airline.   Their planes are  old, their flight attendants are ugly, and they're always late. So,  where are you staying in  Rome?"

"We'll  be at this exclusive little place over on  Rome's Tiber River called Teste."

"Don't  go any further.  I know that place.  Everybody thinks its gonna be something special and exclusive, but it's really a dump."

"We're  going to go to see the  Vatican and maybe get to see the Pope."

"That's rich," laughed the hairdresser. You and a million other people trying to see him. He'll look the size of an ant.   Boy, good luck on this lousy trip of yours. You're going to need  it."

A month later, the woman again came in for a hairdo. The hairdresser  asked  her about her trip to Rome.

"It was wonderful," explained the woman, "not only were we on time in one of Continental's brand new planes, but it was overbooked, and they bumped us up to first class. The food and wine were wonderful, and I had a handsome 28-year-old steward who waited on me hand and foot.  And  the hotel was great! They'd just finished a $5 million remodeling job, and now it's a jewel, the finest hotel in the city. They, too, were overbooked, so they apologized and gave us their owner's suite at no extra charge!"

"Well,"  muttered the hairdresser, "that's all well and good, but I know you didn't get to see the Pope."

"Actually, we were quite lucky, because as we toured the Vatican, a Swiss Guard tapped me on the shoulder, and explained that the Pope likes to meet some of the visitors, and if I'd be so kind as to step into his private room and wait, the Pope would personally greet me.  Sure enough, five minutes later, the Pope walked through the door and  shook  my hand! I knelt down and he spoke a few words to me." 

"Oh,  really!  What'd he say ?"

He said,  "Who fucked up your hair?"

A woman's husband had been slipping in and out of a coma for several months, yet she had stayed by his bedside every single day. 

  One day, when he came to, he motioned for her to come nearer.

 As she sat by him, he whispered, eyes full of tears, 'You know what? 'You have been with me all through the bad times.

When I got fired, you were there to support me.

  
When my business failed, you were there.

  
When I got shot by that robber, you were by my side.

  
When we lost the house, you stayed right there.

  
When my health started failing, you were still by my side...  You know what?'

  
 'What dear?' she gently asked, smiling as her heart began to fill with warmth.

  
 'I think you're bad luck... get the fuck away from me.'


Have a Great Weekend!
Peace!

Obammy’s Public Health Care Plan
 
Now this is gonna piss off a lot of my conservative readers, but I really think this nation needs healthcare reform and that just may include Public Health care. *yikes*
 
Let’s face this country is way behind in providing decent care for it’s people. America should be the best in everything PERIOD!.. I mean that!
 
How come child in a third world pit hole like Iraq and Afghanistan is getting better treatment and healthcare that most of the children in this country. And the worse part about that is that our US Tax Dollars are paying for it. That is right, we are not billing either government for these services. There are clinics in some very remote areas that will treat the poor. I guess it is the least we can do since we bombed the hell out of them first.
 
I’m not a economist but Hospitals and healthcares providers are a business and they have to make money and keep their investors and stock holders happy. MAKE A PROFIT!! This is done by getting in bed with the lame ass DRUG COMPANIES and other medical equipment providers. Even at the doctors office level the family practice doctors can only turn a profit if the over book their office and make people wait for ever or not spend enough time on their patients. I think the only way they can make any money is writing prescriptions and referrals to get “kick backs” to supplement their practices.
 
I know this will sound like nails on a chalk board but I’m fortunate enough to have Government Healthcare for most of my life as a Retired Service member. And also access to the VA system since I’m 30% disabled. I realize BOTH systems are over taxed with all the VETS that are alive for all the wars including the most recent two.

But even as both are run by the government, they do treat a lot of patients and guess what they don’t have to turn a profit. I am humbled and ever gratefull to the US Government and the TAX PAYERS (including myself)..
 
Some Americans would say this is just a big money pit for the tax payers. That may be true, but they have qualified people and they are developing cutting edge technology. They also have fixed salaries and costs for drugs and medical supplies. The manufactures have no choice but to sell their goods at the price the government dictates. AND they do make concessions because the Government pays their bills. All the Greedy Ass Drug companies complain to Congress but who freakin cares. They all still make money..
 
Even civilian treatment providers like the Physical Therapist the VA is sending to me has to conform. He cannot charge is preferred rates and has to settle for what the VA Pays. He seems to be OK with that because it is for sure money.
 
I mentioned before the cutting edge technology; Computerized Records and X-RAYS. The US Government has systems in place that have simplified record keeping. I get treated at ANY U.S. VA facility in the World and they can access my complete medical history in moments. At Brooke Army Medical Center they have been using film less X- RAYS for years. If you go have one done it is almost instantly available anywhere in the hospital. It can pass from department to department without getting lost. I can even request they be burned onto a CD if I have to see a specialist off base.
 
This is huge! Many Liberal NAY SAYERS would say this is an invasion of my privacy.. We guess what it’s the future and information can be protected it is saved and backed up in many redundant systems and uses the latest technology. It needs to happen on a National Level in the civilian sector.
 
It doesn’t have to cost the taxpayers anymore than we have invested in the VA or Military. With the internet and secure data transmissions it can be accessed anywhere in the world or even in SPACE at the space station. As long as it is necessary to be shared.
 
Wal-Mart and Dell computers were working on a similar system to get computer medical record keeping out to rural areas and to every doctor in the country. I haven’t heard much in the news on this for some time now, but the government needs to get behind them. And look how well Walgreen Pharmacy keeps your prescription data private and readily available. You can go anywhere in the country to any Walgreen’s and get you medicine. Most Doctors offices are able to send your prescriptions directly over the internet to the store pharmacy..
 
As for treatment.. Yes I realize most Emergency Rooms are understaffed and over worked with too many patients. This is even true at the 2 Military Hospitals here in San Antonio. *but that is another story*. They are full of kids with colds and overburdened because people don’t have coverage and it is the only care they can get. Even the illegal Aliens get care at our hospitals. And who pays for it?.
 
EVERYBODY!
 
Yes I said everybody! Hospitals have to charge paying customers and those with insurance even more to cover the losses. This is wrong wrong wrong and needs to be fixed.
 
HOW?
 
By opening more free clinics. Staff them with Medical Techs and either a Physician’s Assistant, or Nurse Practitioner. Have a Senior Doctor (MD) for the local hospital responsible for the care that is given and they will over see more clinics. With computers they can even watch and be present via camera’s to see the patient as they are examined, if needed. It is just as easy for a PA or NP to write a prescription for a runny nose or cold and that would remove 100's the patients from the ER EVERYDAY. Have referrals for the more critical cases.

By the way that is how I get treated at most Military Treatment Facilities. Hell, I took my 3 year old son to get stitches in is head way back in the 1980's and the Doctor on call did not even see him until the two Medical Techs on staff had put the stitches in. And he turned out just fine.
 
I read where Canadian Public health care sucks. I have an aunt who worked as a surgical nurse in Canada for over 40 years. She said it gets backed up often and people have die before they can get an operation to save their lives. One of the main reasons is that at any given time there are 60% of  ALL the patients that occupy bed space in Canadian hospitals has a terminal illness and is dieing..

Well I say to fix this they have to create better hospice care and let terminally ill people die with dignity and bring in doctor assistant suicide.. Uncle Jack Kevorkian (Michigan) had the right idea and many states like Oregon have passed right to die laws.
 
I remember back in the 70’s there was a movie called Solent Green with Charlton Heston and Edward G Robinson. Old eddy was dieing and he decided to call it quits. He went to a clinic and picked out his last meal and a glass of whine. He even picked out a theme for the room he was going to be put down with. It was a very moving ritual experience and he died with dignity. On his terms. However the movie went a bit further and used his corpse as food and Charlton followed it through the process.
 
But I would rather die someplace of my choosing that sit in some dingy hospital room with hoses and treatment that will pro-long my misery and tax my health insurance to the max. Just so the Hospital can turn a PROFIT!!!
 
But with all the opposition in this country and the ignorance and fear of computers there are many barriers in this Government and in the Public Sector to make this happen. Hell the BIG INSURANCE Companies don’t want US Healthcare for everybody because they will loose money. They have created a billing bureaucracy that is CHOKING the healthcare system as it is now. Drug Companies have to standardize their rates. How come an African Aids patient gets his drugs cheaper than a rich American with Blue Cross? How come I pay more for generics than they do in Mexico or Canada?
 
If I have an accident in Los Angeles and I live in New York, would it be better if the ER Doctor in LA can access my entire medical record before he even treats me? Also if I do have treatment for say a broken leg or hand, it needs to COST the same for all the supplies and treatment. That is how the military and VA does it..
 
Why Can’t an American Health Care System be UNITED?

We CAN do this better! Our lives and economy depend on it.

Peace!

Even though Iran claims to be a democracy and has allowed thier people to vote, it appears the Ayatolla's and actual leadership of the country still want their favorite mouth piece: Admenijad

I find it very fishy that I just did a Google Search on Him and it did not return a single photo of him?
The radicals over in Iran claim the US and western influence rigged the vote against him and this insighted rioting and even a few deaths amoung the protesters.
That's a good start.. I guess all the money America is spending on cyber-terrorism and propaganda is paying off.
The Moderates over in Iran want and deserve a chance in leadership if they voted that way.. I don't blame them one bit. Their econmy has tanked over the last few years and inflation has trippled. They can't afford to feed all their people inspite of the huge Oil revenues they have been making over the years.. Maybe they shouldn't spend so much on their nuclear weapons program?

But I guess the world will never know who actually won the election.. I'm sure the CIA is very deep in the efforts to get more Iranians out into the streets to protest the elections..

Do we really have the right to interfere in another countries election results?

ABSOLUTELY! If it is in our best interests and helps our national security..

That's just one American's Opinion!

Peace!

Yes I have been a bit distracted lately with work and all but I always try to find time for a few laughs! Happy Friday!

Two elderly ladies had been friends for many decades.  ; Over the years, they had shared all kinds of activities and adventures.  Lately, their activities had been limited to meeting a few times a week to play cards.
 One day, they were playing cards when one looked at the other and said, 'Now don't get mad at me . I know we've been friends for a long time , but I just can't think of  your name ! I've thought and thought, but I can't remember it. Please tell me what your name is.' 
Her friend glared at her...

For at least three minutes she just stared and glared at her.

Finally she said, 'How soon do you need to know?' 

Two elderly women were out driving in a large car - both could barely see over the dashboard. As they were cruising along, they came to an intersection.
The stoplight was red, but they just went on through. The woman in the passenger seat thought to herself 'I must be losing it I could have sworn we just  went Through a red light.'
After a few more minutes, they came to another intersection and the light was red.  Again, they went right through. 
The woman in the passenger seat was almost sure that the light had been red but was really concerned that she was losing it.  She was  getting nervous.
At the next intersection, sure enough, the light was  red and they went on through. 
So, She turned to the other woman and said, 'Mildred, did you know that we just ran through three red lights in a row?  You could have killed us both!' 
Mildred turned to her and  said, 'Oh, crap, am I driving ? 

Walking into the bar, Mike said to Charlie the bartender, "Pour me a stiff one - just had another fight with the little woman."
 "Oh yeah?" said Charlie. "And how did this one end?"
 "When it was over," Mike replied, "she came to me on her hands and knees."
 "Really? Now that's a switch! What did she say?"
 She said, "Come out from under the bed, you little chicken-shit.

A husband and wife were sitting watching a TV program about psychology and mixed emotions when he turned to his wife and said, "Honey, that's a bunch of crap; I bet you can't tell me anything that will make me happy and sad at the same time."
She said, "You have the biggest penis of all your friends."

Two elderly gentlemen were sitting on a bench under a tree when one turns to the other and says: 'Slim, I'm 83 years old now and I'm just full of aches and pains. I know you're about my age. How do you feel?'
Slim says, 'I feel just like a newborn baby..'
'Really!? Like a newborn baby!?'
'Yep. No hair, no teeth, and I think I just wet my pants.'

A little old man shuffled slowly into an ice cream parlor and pulled himself slowly, painfully, up onto a stool.. After catching his breath, he ordered a banana split.
The waitress asked kindly, 'Crushed nuts?'
'No,' he replied, 'Arthritis.'
A strong young man at a construction site was bragging that he  could out-do anyone in a feat of strength.  He made a special case of making fun of one of the older workmen.

After several minutes, the older worker had enough. 
'Why don't you put your money where your mouth is,' he said.  'I'll bet  a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that building that you won't be able to wheel back.'

'You're on, old man,' the braggart replied. 'Let's see you do it.'

The old man reached out and grabbed the wheelbarrow by  the handles.
Then, nodding to the young man, he said, 'All right, Dumb Ass, get in.'

Now this one just pisses me off to not extent.

I'm sure you heard about the "Terrorist" wannabe in Little Rock that gunned down those two Army servicemen in cold blood:
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — A 23-year-old man who the police say shot two soldiers, killing one, outside an Army recruiting office here because he was upset about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan “would have killed more soldiers if they had been in the parking lot,” a prosecutor said Tuesday at a preliminary court hearing.

The suspect, Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, pleaded not guilty, and a district judge ordered that he be held without bail.
At the hearing, a deputy prosecutor, Scott T. Duncan, said Mr. Muhammad had told investigators that he fired repeatedly at the soldiers on Monday morning “because of what they had done to Muslims in the past.”

The dead soldier was identified as Pvt. William A. Long, 23, of Conway, Ark. . The other victim, Pvt. Quinton Ezeagwula, 18, of Jacksonville, Ark., was in stable condition at Baptist Medical Center, Chief Stuart Thomas of the Little Rock Police Department said.

Mr. Muhammad will be charged with one count of capital murder and 15 counts of terroristic acts, one for each person who was hit or endangered by the shots he fired. Thirteen people were in the recruiting office at the time.

I hope the bastard gets the chair.. Maybe they have another cell open at GITMO for the idoit!

First of all the two soldiers were at home, in America, on leave from Basic training and never even had a chance to fight in any wars... They were just hanging out out at the recruiters office doing a little PR work for the Army.

This coward bastard decides to do a drive by and gun them down.. How tragic is that?

I sure hope the Army includes this brave hero is counted war casualty, so at least their families get the full death benefits.

I see no diference than if they were taking a smoke break in Tekrit Iraq, but this was in Arkansas..

Just like any other KILLER that takes a life, they should loose their rights, just as the fallen soldier lost his rights the minute he died.. There's a place in hell for the shooter...

My heart goes out to the families of both boys and I hope the survivor pulls through..

Peace in America!

Jethros Current Events 6/1/2009
 
Editorial:  I can’t believe it is June 1 already.. And I’m still employed in spite of the auto industry.. This year has just flown by. At least I have my health… *cough*
 
In the World
 
That Flight from Brazil to Paris that vanished yesterday is still a mystery as of this morning. Maybe the Aliens took them? Hopefully the pilot was as good as that US Airways Pilot and was able to land. I heard that storms or electrical problems are suspected.. Time will tell on this one.
 
North Korea still is hell bent on flexing it’s military might. They are gonna launch another missile. This one “supposedly” has range enough to reach Alaska. Why doesn’t Obammy grow some BALLS and just blast the son of a bitch out of the sky. We have the technology to do it. I bet doing it would show the Kim Jon Wong bastard that he is wasting his time and money. Here’s an idea, how about spending that money on feeding your own people. China is key to resolving this issue..
 
As Iraq troop withdrawals continue why isn’t the media report on the increasing number of  bombings? I only read about them on usually page 5 in the local paper. I have said this all along that when the US starts pulling out, the Sunni militants that became our “Friends” during the past year will be in fear of their lives from the Shiite Majority and start to blow shit up again. I guess all those American Dollars they were getting for being nice to each other are drying up.. That's one good thing..
 
In the US
 
An abortion Doctor was killed over the weekend. This will open several old wounds in this country. I don’t care what side of the debate you are on, but partial birth abortions are wrong unless the mother is in danger of dieing. And where did this killing take place? IN A GUN FREE ZONE at a church. At least the gun man did not have to fear he would be shot back at.. Easy pray..
 
Today will be the first day that Americans can take on a new ownership of Government Motors.. GM has finally filed bankruptcy in New York Today.. I guess now would be a great time to buy a new car.. Maybe that $50 BILLION we are spending will allow every American to buy a cheap car?  But wait with all the plants and dealerships closing and people loosing their jobs, who will  be able to afford to buy one?
 
On the other side of town, Chrysler is supposedly EMERGING from Bankruptcy this week thanks to the ITALIAN INVASION… Who wants to buy a FIAT anyhow? I owned a YUGO once and it had a Fiat engine. What a piece of crap. One slip of the timing belt and the rods hit the pistons.. *YIKES*
 
In Texas
 
The owner of that DALLAS football team showed off his $1 Billion dollar stadium last week. Has anyone told him that there is a recession going on? I wonder how much the cheap seats go fer? As if I would ever pay to see them play.. Not gonna happen on my watch..
 
San Antonio just upgraded their famed river walk downtown. A few million dollars and now you can ride a party barge upstream to the old Pearl Brewery.. If you never have been to San Antonio, you need to visit, however not in the Summer, it’s too freaking HOT! Yesterday was in the mid 90’s. I managed to go fishing in the morning before it got too f’in hot.. I’m a die-hard..
 
Not in Texas but I’m still a Detroit Red Wings Fan! Go Wings.. As a friend told me, you can kick the Canadian out of the Detroit, but you can’t take away his Red Wings! Go Wings!
 
That’s How I see the world from where I’m sitting.
 
Peace!

Contrary to popular belief, I'm not ready for the dirt nap just yet.. My employment is getting pretty thin and I have been spending a great deal of time looking for a new GIG!.. I'm still hanging on by a thread and hopefully will get paid this Friday.. Like I have told all the friends and employees I have seen get their walking papers; "Your Job is NOT Who you are!"

Anyhow, I heard a great joke at the gym this morning and had to share it with my loyal readers..


Did ya hear that Obammy has passed a new Aspirin Tax?



Yes it's true, Obama and the Democratic Congress are gonna tax Aspirin..




"It's White and it Works!"

Have a Great Day!

Peace!

Jokes of my Week

It is the official start of summer in America. If you are one of the lucky ones to be able to enjoy this 3 day weekend please take a moment out of you busy day, Monday, to thank a VETERAN. Everybody in America should have a family member, neighbor, or distant friend that served this great nation. If it wasn't for their sacrifice, you would not have this day: Memorial Day. JUST DOIT!

This next joke is one of my favorites and has been around a long time but I still laugh my ass off evertime I read it. I can see Dennis Leary fast talking this one... enjoy!

Man Test:

1. If you are over 38 and you have a washboard stomach, you're a queer.  It means you haven't sucked down enough beer with the boys and have spent the rest of your free time doing situps, aerobics, and doing the Oprah diet.  Faggot!

2. If you have a cat, you are a homo.  A cat is like a dog, but queer..  It grooms itself constantly but never scratches itself, has a delicate touch except when it uses its claws, and whines to be fed.  And just think about how you call a dog -- "Killer, come here!  I said get your ass over here, Killer!"  Now think about how you call a cat -- "Bun-bun, come to daddy, snookums!"  Jeeezus, you're pitched; you're so queer!

3. If you suck on lollipops, Ring-Pops, baby pacifiers, or any such nonsense, rest assured that you are a Gaylord.  A straight man only sucks on BBQ ribs, crab claws, raw oysters, pickled pigs feet, or tits.  Anything else and you are a homo in training and undeniably a fag!

4. If you refuse to take a dump in a public bathroom or piss in a parking lot, you crave a deep homosexual relationship.  A man's world is his toilet; he defecates and urinates where he pleases.

5. If you drink anything other than regular coffee, you're as camp as a row of tents!  A straight man will never be heard ordering a decaf soy latte. If you've put a decaf soy latte to your lips, you've had a man there too..

6. If you know more than six names of non-standard colors or four different types of dessert other than ice cream and custard, you might as well be handing out free ass passes.  A real man doesn't have memory space in his brain to remember all of that crap.  If you can pick out chartreuse or you know what a 'fressier' is, you're gay!  And if you can name ANY type of textile other than cotton or denim, you are poofter!

7. If you drive with both hands on the wheel, forget it!  You're dying to tune a meat whistle.  A man only puts both hands on the wheel to beep at a slow-assed driver or to cut the prick off.  The rest of the time he needs that hand to change the radio station, eat a hamburger, hold his beer, or scratch his nuts.

Walking can add minutes to your life.

This enables you at 85 years old to spend an additional 5 months in a nursing home at $7000 per month.

My grandpa started walking five miles a day when he was 60.

Now he's 97 years old and we don't know where he is.

I like long walks, especially when they are taken by people who annoy me.

The only reason I would take up walking is so that I could hear heavy breathing again.

I have to walk early in the morning, before my brain figures out what I'm doing..

I joined a health club last year, spent a bout 400 bucks. Haven't lost a pound. Apparently you have to go there.

Every time I hear the dirty word 'exercise', I wash my mouth out with chocolate.

I do have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them.

The advantage of exercising every day is so when you die, they'll say, 'Well, he looks good doesn't he.'

If you are going to try cross-country skiing, start with a small country.

I know I got a lot of exercise the last few years,...... just getting over the hill.

We all get heavier as we get older, because there's a lot more information in our heads. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

      AND
Every time I start thinking too much about how I look,

I just find a Happy Hour and by the time I leave, I look just fine.

Here's an Oldie:


When to start Cussing....

A 6 year old and a 4 year old are upstairs in their

bedroom. 'You know what?' says  the 6 year old.  'I think it's about time we started cussing.
The 4 year old nods his head in approval.

The 6 year old continues, 'When we go downstairs for breakfast, I'm gonna say something with hell and you say something with ass..'

The 4 year old agrees with enthusiasm. When the mother walks into the kitchen and asks the 6 year old what he wants for breakfast, he replies, 'Aw, hell, Mom, I guess I'll have some

Cheerios.'

WHACK! He flies out of his chair, tumbles across the kitchen  floor, gets up, and runs upstairs crying his eyes out, with his mother in  hot pursuit, slapping his rear withevery step.

His mom locks him in his room and shouts, 'You can stay there until I let you out!'

She then comes back downstairs, looks at the 4 year old and asks with a stern voice, 'And what do YOU want for breakfast, young man?'

I don't know, he blubbers, 'but you can bet your fat ass it won't be Cheerios!'


Have a Great Weekend! Be Safe!

Peace!
