Firenze Sage: $15,000 soda pop [federal fine to school]

jaj48 — Sat, 19 May 2012 22:17:52 +0000

$15 K federal fine to school for soda bought after lunch makes no sense

Soda pop OK if bought before lunch but a huge federal fine if purchased after lunch. This makes no sense except harassment sense.

Davis High School has been fined $15,000 after they were caught selling soda pop during lunch hour, which is a violation of federal law.

The federally mandated law prohibits the sale of carbonated beverages after lunch is served. The program is an effort to help fight childhood obesity and to have young students make better food choices.

The mandate allows for carbonated beverages to be sold before lunch, but restricts students from buying lunch, then purchasing carbonated drinks afterward.

“Before lunch you can come and buy a carbonated beverage. You can take it into the cafeteria and eat your lunch, but you can’t first go buy school lunch then come out in the hallway and buy a drink,” said Davis High Principal Dee Burton.

Firenze Sage: Man survives on urine [held in holding cell with no food or water]

jaj48 — Wed, 09 May 2012 01:18:07 +0000

no food or water for college student picked up in driug raid

A college student picked up in a federal drug sweep in California was never arrested, never charged and should have been released. Instead, authorities say, he was forgotten in a holding cell for four days.

Without food, water or access to a toilet, Daniel Chong had to drink his own urine to survive and began hallucinating after three days because of a lack of nourishment, his lawyer said.

“He nearly died,” Eugene Iredale said. “If he had been there another 12 to 24 hours, he probably would have died.”

The top Drug Enforcement Administration agent in San Diego apologized Wednesday for Chong’s treatment and promised an investigation into how his agents could have forgotten about him.

Firenze Sage: Forget a cancer cure, control soot [EPA]

EPA views soot control more important

EPA’s rules cost the private sector $105+ BILLION compared to $5 billion for the rest of government. And the EPA continues to make outrageous statements. It has been brought to light that in testimony to Congress last September, Administrator Lisa Jackson claimed that further controls of soot would be as beneficial to public health as finding a cure for cancer.

Firenze Sage: Rub a dub dub, nude maid in the tub [Texas maid service]

rub a dub dub, nude maid in the tub

Nude maid service watched closely by police in Texas:

Police in staunchly conservative West Texas city if Lubbock are keeping close tabs on a young entrepreneur’s recently opened cleaning service that offers nude maids.

Lubbock police Sgt. Jonathan Stewart said the owner of Fantasy Maid Service of Lubbock doesn’t have a permit to operate a sexually oriented business and officers are watching for any violation, which would bring a $2,000 fine.

But owner Melissa Borrett insists she’s not operating such a business. Customers pay $100 an hour for one maid or $150 an hour for two maids, and no touching is allowed, she said.

“I run a maid service,” the 26-year-old entrepreneur said. “We really just clean houses. These girls are not performers. They’re maids.

Aptos Psychologist: Obama’s ‘spin’ that ObamaCare cannot be found illegal due to a ‘leak’ from his appointee to the Court?

jaj48 — Wed, 04 Apr 2012 21:02:43 +0000

Kagan leak?

So did someone on the Supreme Court leak to Obama that the Supreme Court might find ObamaCare illegal? If so, was it someone — Kagan — who used to work for Obama?

Federal judges can find Obama-Care illegal says Texas federal Judge Smith in response to Obama’s recent remarks about judicial review. It’s impossible to find ObamaCare’s individual mandate illegal said Obama. Oh?

But federal courts routinely strike down laws as illegal and unconstitutional. Today, Texas federal judge Smith bristles at Obama’s recent remarks on judicial review and that unelected men and women cannot — or should not — decide the fate of Obama-Care.

Texas federal Judge Smith rebuked U.S. Attorney General Holder concerning Obama’s remarks and requested within 48 hours a 3 page single space response concerning Obama’s position on judicial review.

The Supreme Court has always practised deference responded Eric Holder. Sounds like Holder thinks that the Supreme Court is supposed to rubber stamp whatever the Executive branch does.

Some of Texas Judge Smith’s prior rulings: Affirmative Action illegal and unconstitutional at Texas Law School. Obama’s 6 month moratorium on deep water oil drilling was found illegal.

Obama’s remarks — that the Supreme Court cannot decide the legality of Obmaa-Care — show a profound dis-respect for our federal courts and the independence of our three branches of government. written by DrCameronJackson@gmail.com

Aptos Psychologist: About the ObamaCare individual mandate– If you must buy X then you can be required to buy Y and Z

jaj48 — Sun, 01 Apr 2012 21:56:51 +0000

bacon

force pork?

Conservatives can do things that support getting rid of ObamaCare, Obama’s regulations and Obama’s policies. One way: Read the opposition’s arguments and comment back via blogs and email. This is a comment back on ‘Broccoli and bad faith’ written by Paul Krugman, with New York Times.

Replace broccoli with pork and see what happens to Krugman’s weak argument.

Dear Mr. Krugman: Do you know that …..

1) Americans overwhelmingly dislike 2 to 1 ObamaCare. It was not popular before and overall it is still unpopular.

2) If the Supreme Court throws ObamaCare out entirely, then Congress gets a fresh slate to make health care reform with bipartisan support. Not one Republican voted for ObamaCare. Any change of such massive proportions requires bipartisan support and public input through hearings. Thus, a fresh start is the best way to go.

3) Americans want health care reform that respects individual freedom of religion per the Bill of Rights. Obama recently Jan 20, 2012 told the Catholic bishops there was no waiver for any church organizations. Under Obama-Care, all organizations must provide for free a wide variety of contraceptive choices including abortion, sterilization and birth control pills. Many organizations are affronted at this lack of respect for individual conscience and by the one size fits all approach taken by Obama and his Health Secretary Sebelius.

4) People want & should be able to get individually tailored plans. A gay man does not need or want pregnancy care whereas a gay woman who plans to give birth may. Health care reform must include tort reform to reduce malpractice costs and allow and encourage competition across state lines.

5) If you Mr. Krrugman don’t like Justice Scalia’s comparison of health care with broccoli then how about comparing health care with the purchase of pork? Say there is just one store and it’s located in the middle of a Jewish neighborhood. And Jews don’t eat pork or bacon or products with pork. How long will the store owner offer pork for sale? As the demand is zero he will stop offering it for sale. So when Jews choose not to buy pork in fact their actions make pork unavailable to the few who do want to buy pork.

6) But what if the government requires all stores to offer pork for sale and requires all shoppers to purchase pork no matter what the individual’s religious or culinary habits? When the government can require all to purchase X then the government can require all to also purchase Y and Z.

6) The essence of a legal contract [based on Western laws] is that both parties enter into it voluntarily. But if one side is forced then there is no lawful contract.

7) You Mr. Krugman have got it flat wrong when you say, “people don’t buy health insurance until they get sick…” Wrong. Most people get health insurance as part of their benefits from their employer. Some individuals that work by the hour and have several children will get health care for their children via Healthy Families and other government paid for programs. And, if in CA, via Medical.

Insurance is based on risk. What is the risk of a 20 year old dying from a heart attack compared to a 70 year old? The risk is far less for the younger person and hence the insurance cost is less.

Yes Mr. Krugman, Americans want health care reform. But they do not want ObamaCare. Americans do not want to be told that they must purchase health care insurance or pork or anything for that matter.

In January, 2008, instead of focusing on the weak economy, creating actual ‘shovel ready’ jobs, the huge homes ‘under water’ Obama and Pelosi and the Democrats focused on creating a one size fits all government health care program for all. The priorities of the working American are — and remain — far different from Obama’s priorities.

And what are Obama’s priorities? Giving Russia what it wants concerning missile defense? Protecting ‘green’ energy and choosing supposed winners and losers? Stopping the Canadian- Gulf oil pipeline? Adding 1 TRILLION to the national debt to be paid by our children and grand-children? Stopping all oil drilling in the Gulf even though his commission said re-open bids?

Americans are far smarter than Obama and apologist Paul Krugman think. And yes, health insurance can be compared to the purchase of broccoli or any product. If the government can force you as an individual to buy health insufance, it can force you to buy all sorts of of things.

Way back in 1775, the individual states agreed to create and give limited powers to the federal government. All powers not given remained with the individual states. All powers over the individual citizen [pay a property tax, get a drivers license, pay sales tax] come from the power of the state where you live.

Up until now — except for conscription into the army and serving on a federal jury — the federal government has only limited, specific powers. It has no police powers over any individual. If the individual mandate of ObamaCare is found by the Supreme Court to be constitutional and legal, then the basic relationship between you and your government changes drastically.

So the answer is yes, if the individual mandate is legal then Obama can force Jewish grocery stores to sell bacon and pork and Obama can force all shoppers to purchase bacon and pork.

Firenze Sage: Two jobs.

jaj48 — Sat, 31 Mar 2012 03:54:55 +0000

TSA & pimp

TSA manager holds down a second job as a pimp.

Montgomery County Police have arrested a TSA manager for running a prostitution ring out of a Silver Spring hotel. Bryant Livingston was arrested at his job at Dulles International Airport where he worked as a morning shift manager.

Hotel employees were suspicious of activity and called police.

When Montgomery County Police arrived and knocked on the hotel room door they saw three naked women in a room and four men. One man admitted to police he had arrived with the promise of sex for $100.

Aptos Psychologist: Get it in writing that Congress commits to repeal ObamaCare!

jaj48 — Fri, 23 Mar 2012 04:48:46 +0000

get written commitment by Congress

Use pen, email and phone to contact your representatives in Congress. Tell your representatives that you want their public statement in writing that they oppose Obama-Care and will — if re-elected — repeal Obama-Care.

First step next week hopefully is that the U.S. Supreme Court, after hearing oral arguments, will find the individual mandate to be unconstitutional. And since the individual mandate is connected to all other parts of Obama-Care [no severability clause was deliberate] all of ObamaCare should be found unconstitutional. Probably sometime in June the U.S. Supreme Court will tell the public what they decide.

For now, keep telling your representatives and the newspapers and your friends and acquaintances what you think.

Here’s some information:

Obama-Care costs twice as much as predicted says CBO. Obama-Care puts decisions in hands of unknown government administrators instead of patients and their doctors.

Below is from the American Spectator.

“American communists and the radical left generally have long targeted the Roman Catholic Church. They know their enemy, one that is both spiritual and eternal. They have long attempted to pit Protestants and Catholics against each other. It’s an old art, really, that’s today totally forgotten.

And so, is this tactic being resurrected right now under Barack Obama? Is this more of the “fundamental transformation” we were promised — elected by oblivious Americans in November 2008?

If Obama can frame his mandate as a matter of contraceptive freedom — rather than an obvious constitutional affront on religious liberty — he may be able to successfully pit large numbers of Protestants and even many Catholics against the institutional Catholic Church. It would be the kind of religious agitation that would make the Marxists of the last century — particularly Obama’s mentor — very proud. How’s that for “hope” and “change”?

Aptos Psychologist: Let’s require justice for the US Justice Department … Prison time and disbar US Attorneys Matthew Friedrich & Rita Glavin et al for concealing & shaping evidence

jaj48 — Sat, 17 Mar 2012 21:47:15 +0000

Prison time & no more license to practice law for US Justice attorneys Friedrich, Glavin, Morris et al who withheld and manipulated evidence that lead to a guilty verdict for Alaska Senator Stevens?

Read the reports and you decide. (WSJ, 3-17-2012)

That’s what citizens can & probably should request happen to all the US Attorneys responsible for this failure of justice which changed the balance of power in the U.S. government. Those attorneys got their licence probably from the District of Columbia. The State can jerk their license. A judge could require an independent investigation. Obama could order his Attorney General to act ….

But don’t hold your breath [as you will turn blue in the face waiting] for U.S. Attorney Eric Holder or President Obama to act. Three years have passed and Holder has not disciplined any of the men or woman involved.

ObamaCare got vote #60 from Alaska Democrat Senator Mark Begich when Senator Stevens lost the election in 2008 shortly after U.S. Justice department obtained a guilty verdict based on systematic concealment of significant exculpatory evidence.

Firenze Sage: Why stop at soccer? How about ballroom dancing? [a third recreation field for Gitmo detainees]

jaj48 — Sun, 11 Mar 2012 16:34:57 +0000

Gitmo P.E.

What happened to breaking up rocks and push-ups for POWs? Instead, taxpayers pay for another — the third — recreation field for Gitmo prisoners.

This is the third recreation facility at Camp 6, which houses “highly compliant” detainees who live in a communal setting, the report stated. Other facilities include an indoor recreation field and an outdoor recreation field.

The new field will afford the detainees “maximum access” — about 20 hours a day, via special passageways to allow passage into the new recreation yard without military escort.

A military police representative who asked not to be identified by name told the reporters that allowing high levels of activity outdoors helped reduce behavioral problems at the camps, and limited the amount of interaction between detainees and the guards, Fox reported.

Why not just give them ball room dancing? It would certainly be cheaper.
