LINING UP THE ICE FLOES

This eighty year old I see in my mirror every morning is becoming extremely anxious about the looming possibility of opening my eyes one day in an emergency room and hearing them say “Let her go”.  I am not cost efficient.  I don’t know where they will cut off the efforts to save me. Will it be before the ambulance is dispatched?  When does the order go out to the Obama Office of Putting Seniors Down (as they do with dogs and horses) so they can prepare my ice floe?

This looming possibility was discussed recently on MSNBC (the Obama Channel), and Joe Scarborough agreed that if your granny is 90 years old, costly procedures should not be considered when we have all those poor children suffering in emergency rooms. (Whatever happened to that SCHIP program?)

What was really alarming this morning was hearing our precedent- setting leader referring to religion as an ideology which will no longer be allowed to counteract the findings of scientists concerning the beginning of life and at what point life should be terminated. This is when the unthinkable becomes the norm, as a Catholic priest so well expressed it on a recent television program.  This is also when our values have been replaced by something new which is now known as “conventional wisdom”.

Jesus has now been downgraded to being the founder of an ideology, rather than the Christian religion. At least I guess we can take comfort in saying that his status is one step above being the leader of a cult. I hate to think of what might happen to those who claim that Islam is an ideology and not a religion.  That would not be politically correct and would be racist speech.

Do you think the Christians might start rioting in the streets over this?  I think not.  If we go the way we have been going, this shift in our terminology will be completely ignored. 

Has anyone else noticed this item reported by the Columbus Dispatch which is now on the Drudge Report? The Attorney General spokesperson is playing Sgt. Schultz. They are trying to determine where this all came from. Supposedly records show that this was a “test account” assigned to the “information technology section” of the Attorney General’s office but this spokesperson declined to provide details.
Information was pulled about Joe from the Bureau of Motor Vehicles and evidently from the state’s child protection agency immediately after the last debate.

I am just waiting. A broken hip life threatening with a brief stay in the hospital?? One blog suggests she had a possible heart attack. Who knows? Another blog suggest prior cancer recurrence. Who knows? My mother had a broken hip when she was 89 and after a pin placed in her hip and being a determined lady, she walked those halls in the nursing home as prescribed by the therapists for many months until she was completely ambulatory. With Obama’s history of obfuscating the truth, one has to wonder. The pathetic rendition of his mother’s demise before he got there and his sad promenading along the Hawaii beach is a bit too much.

Am I the only one flashing back to old black and white newsreels of thousands marching and saluting in Berlin? If this had taken place at night we might have seen the ghosts of torchlights. How quickly we forget. I just hope the Israelis have not forgotten “Never Again”.
