And You Wonder Why We Are Nervous?
Aug 12, 2009 Political
The Resident keeps on mocking his detractors regarding the Healthcare bill, saying that they are resorting to “scare” tactics to try and kill this obamanation of a bill, but in reality, all one has to do is look at the architects of this bill- who had input in the formation of the terms by which these “people” ( and I say that provisionally) wish to dictate our lives.
Take Professor Peter Singer- a man who believes that a baby is not human until it can have actual thoughts, and recognize that there is a tomorrow. That alone is scary stuff, but there’s more-
Singer states that arguments for or against abortion should be based on utilitarian calculation which weighs the preferences of a mother against the preferences of the fetus. A preference is anything sought to be obtained or avoided; all forms of benefit or harm caused to a being correspond directly with the satisfaction or frustration of one or more of its preferences. Since a capacity to experience suffering or satisfaction is a prerequisite to having any preferences at all, and a fetus, at least up to around eighteen weeks, says Singer, has no capacity to suffer or feel satisfaction, it is not possible for such a fetus to hold any preferences at all. In a utilitarian calculation, there is nothing to weigh against a mother’s preferences to have an abortion, therefore abortion is morally permissible.
Similar to his argument for abortion, Singer argues that newborns similarly lack the essential characteristics of personhood — “rationality, autonomy, and self-consciousness”[28] — and therefore “killing a newborn baby is never equivalent to killing a person, that is, a being who wants to go on living.”[29]

Kind of Nazi- like, isn’t it? But then he gets really bizarro- Don’t believe me? Okay, here we go-
In a 2001 review of Midas Dekker’s Dearest Pet: On Bestiality, Singer argues that sexual activities between humans and animals that result in harm to the animal should remain illegal, but that “sex with animals does not always involve cruelty” and that “mutually satisfying activities” of a sexual nature may sometimes occur between humans and animals, and that writer Otto Soyka would condone such activities.

Gee, now there’s somebody you don’t want working at the SPCA, much less having input in the most intrusive and expensive Healthcare bill ever to be debated.
Now we come to John Holdren, who, believe it or not, is the Resident’s Science Czar- Really? Allow me-
Forced abortions. Mass sterilization. A “Planetary Regime” with the power of life and death over American citizens.
The tyrannical fantasies of a madman? Or merely the opinions of the person now in control of science policy in the United States? Or both?
These ideas (among many other equally horrifying recommendations) were put forth by John Holdren, whom Barack Obama has recently appointed Director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, Assistant to the President for Science and Technology, and Co-Chair of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology — informally known as the United States’ Science Czar. In a book Holdren co-authored in 1977, the man now firmly in control of science policy in this country wrote that:
• Women could be forced to abort their pregnancies, whether they wanted to or not;
• The population at large could be sterilized by infertility drugs intentionally put into the nation’s drinking water or in food;
• Single mothers and teen mothers should have their babies seized from them against their will and given away to other couples to raise;
• People who “contribute to social deterioration” (i.e. undesirables) “can be required by law to exercise reproductive responsibility” — in other words, be compelled to have abortions or be sterilized.
• A transnational “Planetary Regime” should assume control of the global economy and also dictate the most intimate details of Americans’ lives — using an armed international police force.zombietime.com
This, unfortunately, is just the beginning of the wrong- headed thinking that pervades the White House, and after becoming just a little acquainted with these two sc**bags, you really feel like washing your eyes out. These are people we want to have power in deciding our fate? Is their “input” really something that is positive? Or is it as repugnant to you as it is to me?
I know that after doing the researchI have done, I no longer feel that Sarah Palin’s “Death Panel ” comment is that far out of line- indeed, sorry to say, she might be right on in her assessment, because these are not the only two that (A)- have had input on this bill, and (B)- are “Czars” in this administration.
The Resident once said that if we want to know how he is going to make his decisions, to just look at the people he surrounds himself with. Well- we are looking, but the glimpse is certainly not reassuring us about the state of our Healthcare.
Tomorrow, I will introduce you to Ezekiel Emmanuel, the brother of the Resident’s Chief of Staff, and Van Jones, the Resident’s “Green Jobs Czar”. They also hold views that are puzzling, considering the Healthcare Debate.
In the meantime, study these people- the more you know, the more horrified you will be.
And if I was the Resident, I wouldn’t leave Peter Singer and Bo, the Resident’s dog, in the same room.
It’s just not safe.

Soylent Green May Really Be Made From People
Jul 23, 2009 Political
The more you know, the more you flinch for the safety and soul of our country. We all know of the unconstitutional “Czars” that Hussein has been appointing- this is so as to bypass the Constitutional system of Checks and Balances, which is supposed to slow down the law- making process, so as to give everyone a chance to have their input heard, and to help keep bad laws from being passed. Well, with these “Czars”, Hussein does not have to answer to Congress. And what Czars he chooses- There is Stephen Chu, a man who believes that International law trumps our Constitution, and should be the law of the land here- that would be bad enough, but the man who takes the cake (so far) is John Holdren, a Harvard University Professor (aren’t they all), who has advocated in the past that it would be okay to abort an infant up to two years old. That’s right, kill babies. His reasoning is that until the baby can realize that there’s a tomorrow, the baby is not really human.
He also has postulated that sterilants (birth control drugs) should be added to the water we drink, on the grounds that there are already too many people, and certainly too many of the wrong kind, whatever that is supposed to mean.
President Obama’s “science czar,” Paul Holdren, once floated the idea of forced abortions, “compulsory sterilization,” and the creation of a “Planetary Regime” that would oversee human population levels and control all natural resources as a means of protecting the planet — controversial ideas his critics say should have been brought up in his Senate confirmation hearings.
He was confirmed with little fanfare on March 19 as director of the White House’s Office of Science and Technology Policy, a 50-person directorate that advises the president on scientific affairs, focusing on energy independence and global warming.
But many of Holdren’s radical ideas on population control were not brought up at his confirmation hearings; it appears that the senators who scrutinized him had no knowledge of the contents of a textbook he co-authored in 1977, “Ecoscience: Population, Resources, Environment,” a copy of which was obtained by FOXNews.com.
The 1,000-page course book, which was co-written with environmental activists Paul and Anne Ehrlich, discusses and in one passage seems to advocate totalitarian measures to curb population growth, which it says could cause an environmental catastrophe.
Those plans include forcing single women to abort their babies or put them up for adoption; implanting sterilizing capsules in people when they reach puberty; and spiking water reserves and staple foods with a chemical that would make people sterile.
To help achieve those goals, they formulate a “world government scheme” they call the Planetary Regime, which would administer the world’s resources and human growth, and they discuss the development of an “armed international organization, a global analogue of a police force” to which nations would surrender part of their sovereignty.

Is this the man you want for a Science Czar? I mean really- the unspoken offspring of Josef Mengele? This is a person who truly believes that he alone will know the way, and that way is the forced curbing of our population through involuntary birth control and infanticide. Now it really will be possible, under this deranged man to have the “fetal farms” that could support the embryonic stem cell research that could supply body parts for the new “ruling class”.
When you combine this man with Cass Sunstein, another Obama friend and appointee, who believes that animals have rights at least as equal as people do, and can possibly sue people in court, what you have in our government today is a remarkable combination of true insanity, and dangerous people in charge of our destinies.
If you take a close look at All of Hussein’s Czars, you will find a truly disturbing pattern of attempting to alter human behavior to suit their beliefs, and a part of this is to destroy the Constitution, because that one piece of paper is a blatant slap in the face to these Fascists.
The Constitution gives people rights and powers, the same rights and powers that these people feel the government should have, not the people who deserve and need them. These “Czars”, all of them, want to control your lives- they feel that they know better than you, and that they can do a better job of regulating your behavior than you can.
This will include killing your babies if they feel that your genetics aren’t optimum- Really– up til the age of two, they won’t have a problem with it.
If they have their way, birth control solutions could be added to our drinking water, to “control” our population until these Czars determine that our population is at the number that these people determine is optimum.
They are insane- but they have been appointed, with no oversight by Congress, by our gutless leader.
Is this the life you thought you voted for?
