Robbing Peter to Pay Juan

Keeping the premeditated economic apocalypse in mind, I'm delighted that the Obama administration has found enough taxpayer dollars for funding community health centers for the treatment of "migrants" and "seasonal farm workers." Now I have a window of insight into the inner workings of "community organization," in which Obama prides himself as an adept. Our unborn great-grandchildren may be in debt when they first pop out of the womb, but at least the undocumented rapists and murderers and welfare cases and drunk drivers and fraudsters will have adequate, inexpensive health care. That's what matters most.

Serving illegal aliens is a conscious objective, as this comment demonstrates:

“Health centers do not, as a matter of routine practice, ask about or collect data on citizenship or other matters not related to the treatment needs of the patients seeking health services at the center,” Andrews said.

“The Program’s authorizing statute does not affirmatively address immigration status,” said Andrews. “Rather, it simply states that health centers are required to provide primary health care to all residents of the health center's service area without regard for ability to pay.”

Given that "illegal immigrants make up an estimated 25 percent of all migrant farm workers," the intent behind this magnanimity with other people's money becomes clear: aiding and abetting lawlessness. Not only does the federal government refuse enforcement of our nation's right and proper immigration laws, but it provides services for criminal aliens at your expense.

That's what I call compassion.

Can You Hear Me Now?

A few days ago I saw a young man riding down the side of a busy street on a bicycle, talking on a cell phone. I kid you not.

What's the world coming to? I couldn't tell you the number of times I've been cut off in traffic, or nearly run off the road, only to see some idiot jabbering on a cell phone as they blithely drove by, unconcerned that they came within a hair's breadth of causing a traffic accident.

What's next, children on Big Wheels with cell phones? A kid pulling a little red Radio Flyer wagon filled with kindergarteners with phones glued to their ears?

It's getting more ridiculous by the day.

I've said this before, but it bears repeating: the mass production and easy access of cell phones has transformed normal people into self-absorbed morons.

Remember Alderaan?

George Lucas says world will end in 2012.




I'm guessing this is the reason:
