Democrats Bring US One Step Closer to the Draft

Joint Chief Chairman Critical of Gay Ban Vote.

Congress has passed a bill to repeal the “don’t ask don’t tell” policy for gays in the military, but the Senate has not yet weighed in on this decision. Military officials have been wanting to survey the currently serving military to see how this change in policy would affect the ability of the US to defend itself, before the bill was considered.

Pharmer weighs in with a repeat of the prediction that the Democrats will bring back conscription = the DRAFT. They’ve been wanting this for a good long time, despite protestations to the contrary. This is the most plausible explanation for their persistent actions to degrade conditions and pay for the soldiers. This latest action, to allow open gayness in the military, is expected to bring about the largest reduction in force among military personnel, thus necessitating a return of the draft. The preferred scenario for the Democrats will be to place the military in debilitated conditions, and force their political opponents to shoulder the blame for bringing back the draft during a time of dire need. Call it a long range plan for their return to power, post Obama.

Netanyahu defends Flotilla raid, regrets loss of life

Netanyahu defends aid ships raid, regrets loss of life.

Israeli commandos stopped the flotilla of pro Palestinian activists bringing “aid” to the embargoed Palestine. This predictably lead to dead activists, since Israel is prone to defending their military positions, and the supporters of Hamas are howling.

James O’Keefe and the Telephone Men give Their Side of the Story

From statements to their lawyers, the account, linked below, is compiled to reveal the planning and execution of the Louisiana phone caper in Mary Landrieu’s office.

As mentioned earlier, O’Keefe and compatriots were arrested and charged for dressing up as telephone repair men and interviewing the people in Mary Landrieu’s office. Apparently, from previous accounts, one of them also touched a phone!!!

This was a MAJOR BUST by the federal marshals and FBI!

South Korea Has Idiots on its Constitutional Court, Same as Many Other Countries

Frozen human embryos ‘not life forms’: S.Korean court

South Korean court rules that Human Embryos are not human if they are frozen and not implanted.

Anyone who is targeted for killing can be labeled as non-human, whether or not this meshes with biological realities.

For example, there could be a court ruling or legislative edict that putting on a robe and holding a gavel renders one a monkey, and not a human, and therefore a suitable subject for medical experimentation.

If Joe McGinniss is only interested in Palin’s public life

then why did this kinko “Author” move in next door?

From Real Clear Politics is an ABC video showing their reporter being shooed away by Joe McGinniss, who threatened to call the Wasilla police.

Apparently the author likes His privacy. He has no trespassing signs up all over the property which he is renting for five months, to watch the home life of the Palins.

Palins have quickly built a fence to block McGinniss’s view of Piper’s bedroom and their “swimming hole”.

Kurt Schlichter, at Big Journalism, takes a virtual walk through the mind of McGinniss.

Dick Durbin for Chief of Staff

Sestak was Honest, Now It’s Over to Rahm | Taylor Marsh – TaylorMarsh.com – News, Opinion and Weblog on Progressive Politics.

….because someone has to take the fall for offering Joe Sestak a job to get him out of the PA senate race against Alen Specter.

Since Rahm Emanuel is the likely fall guy, Obama has to be out looking for a new chief of staff. Durbin knows the Chicago way, so he ought to be a prime candidate.

The slime is on Sestak too, because he’s mum on who made the job offer, (fearing for his life), while in the midst of running a political campaign. It’s going to be a bit harder for win that Senate seat in November.

One of the workers in the above article was fired and rehired multiple times by the Census Bureau, and this counted for the creation of four new jobs. This worker is now unemployed once more. The other writer reports extreme job redundancy, and waste of resources.

OKeefe gets a fine and community service for Louisiana phone caper

Activist guilty in phone caper at senator’s office.

James O’Keefe, memorable for his pimp costume in the video series which exposed the corruption of ACORN, gets a fine, community service and probation for entering a federal building under false pretenses. His group was apparently checking to see if Senator Mary Landrieu’s message box was really full. ;-)

For this small penalty, O’Keefe got a ton of extra international media exposure for his ACORN video sting operation. Comparable internet ad time would have been waaaaaaaaay more expensive.

ACORN has since gone bankrupt, and split into baby acorns with new names.

Best wishes for these intrepid investigators and hopes for more video hits from Mr. O’Keefe and friends.

Chalk that Louisiana phone caper into the Plus column.

He’s a GENIUS !

Obama’s solution to BP’s problem! “Plug the damn hole.” he says.

Obama to aides: ‘Plug the damn hole’ – The Hill’s Blog Briefing Room.

Bush would have summoned effective assistance for BP long before this…….. remember he and his buddies knew something about oil, and would not have had to screen leak plugging experts for their religious beliefs about gay sex.

Lefties are bad for the environment. Green voters need to think about practical matters, such as actual cleaning operations, and how to accomplish them.

Britain bans doctor who linked autism to vaccine

thereby INCREASING his reputation and credibility. Please excuse the dollop of cynicism and read up!
Britain bans doctor who linked autism to vaccine.

Though the Lancet published research by Dr Andrew Wakeman, after peer review, the journal “takes it all back”. What does that say about the value of other medical research which is published in that journal? To which one would you give credence? Lancet or Wakeman or neither. Bubbling up now is a temporal link between the use of embryonic stem cells to make vaccines and the increased incidence in autism. Pharmer fully agrees that using killed humans for medical purposes is bad karma (a little Hindu lingo there), but sees no mechanistic explanation for linkage of these two elements thus far. Please also note autism’s medical-pop status as the diagnosis du jour (french lingo for overdiagnosis). Enthusiasm for vaccines will continue to plummet as the use of them is increasingly coerced by government, and public trust in the increasingly intertwined, Unethical government-medical establishment continues to erode.

Pondering the reasons for the deep cynicism …brings to mind another scientific field, and the global warming “research”. Is the peer review process working at all anymore? Read the FOI files and emails from East Anglia University yourself. The establishment continues to stand behind this hoax.

Nature, another journal which “took it all back” flagellates itself online for the embryonic stem cell fraud of Hwang Woo Suk.

Don’t forget the increasingly bogus Komen Foundation creating a need for itself. Now the natural medicine folks are after Komen for greasing up to fight breast cancer. Pharmer wonders where many of the naturopaths have been regarding the birth control and abortion links to breast cancer … asleep at the switch until Komen and KFC joined forces to sell greasy fried food, which we all know is an unhealthy delight.

Public distrust of medicine and science is well fed. Got any suggestions for repairing this problem?

Virginia Principal Is Placed on Leave for Distributing Fetus Dolls to Students

Breitbart.tv » Virginia Principal Is Placed on Leave for Distributing Fetus Dolls to Students. <=== Watch This Video!

Sex Ed is OK at Norfolk Public Schools in Virginia, but developmental biology is not. Children are not to be exposed to figures of a human fetus, with a description of human development accompanying it.

A staffer and principal at Oakwood Primary School in Norfolk are on administrative leave for distributing fetus dolls and literature to 8, 9, and 10 year old students. (The word “”abortion” apparently does not appear anywhere in that literature so apparently it’s the developmental biology lesson which has caused all the uproar.)

Washington DC, Beefing Up the Failed AIDS Prevention Program

D.C. to begin using more-expensive Trojan condoms in HIV prevention program. ………. because people were whining that the Durex brand wasn’t good enough. Some of these delusional denizens of DC, screaming for better freebies, also complained about the size. Pharmer suggests that they instead discontinue the hallucinogens.

Recall that the Harvard AIDS prevention project produced data which shows that the condom distribution programs do not prevent or reduce transmission of the virus at the population level, so Washington DC, the HIV capital of the United States, where 3 percent of residents have the virus, is likely to remain as such.

Republican wins House Seat Obama’s Home district

Djou wins U.S. House seat – Hawaii News – Starbulletin.com. <— note, this was a special election.

Charles Djou will be the first Republican sent by Hawaii to Congress in 20 years. In the email, but not the news is a mention that Djou is a captain in the US Army Reserve. Two democrats running against him in the special election will be reduced to one by primary election, and Djou will face a combined vote, perhaps placing him at disadvantage in the general election. However even this first victory came as a shock to the regular media pundits.

Pro-lifers rain on Planned Parenthood’s dismally attended “celebration” by Jill Stanek

Pro-lifers rain on Planned Parenthood’s dismally attended “celebration” by Jill Stanek.

Cecile Richards (head of planned parenthood federation) needs to work on her charisma. Her big appearance for East Central Iowa planned parenthood’s 30th anniversary bash in Cedar Rapids drew more prolifers than supporters. Plenty of media showed up for the event and got a view of about 180 prolifers with plenty of signage standing in the rain outside.

The protesters, largely courtesy of Dubuque Co. RTL and the Pro-life Action League, outnumbered the attendees by a good deal, and this disproportion is quite normal.

Planned Parenthood doesn’t seem to be able to pack the house or engender much enthusiasm for any of its appeals, except among the media and politicians for whom they fund campaigns. They aren’t so good at inspiring the volunteerism.

(Remembers a national mailing from planned parenthood asking their supporters to email Yours Truly, which produced……….. YEP….. one Single Lonely Email in the in-box, no spam filters intervening ;-)

Toilet brush ‘blunder’ death | The Sun |News

Toilet brush ‘blunder’ death | The Sun |News.

Pharmer collects UK socialized medicine disaster stories, which are legion, and here’s a doozie.

A woman fell in the bathroom (too much drinkie) and six inches of a toilet brush handle had become embedded in her buttocks.

A series of medical visits since 2005 yielded repeated misdiagnosis and no appropriate treatment. Finally things got so bad, the woman submitted to a surgery which resulted in her death from blood loss.

Miss Michigan thinks Birth Control Pills are Controlled Substances!

Fresh in from the a nocturnal political news contributor, this major gaffe from the latest Miss USA.

The pill, in normal use, is not like any other drug. It is usually employed as a lifestyle drug, (much like a recreational drug). The Plan B form (Plan B One-step) is available over the counter in the United States and many other countries.

The pill is not very costly when compared to other recreational expenses, so this is not a reason for insurance companies to pay for its use as birth control. It is also presents many health liabilities for women, though the FDA and prescribers are remarkably unenthusiastic about reporting the many side effects, including those causing hospitalization and death. After all, it’s ONLY women who use those pills.

Some apologists for Rima Fakih have suggested that she might see it as a means to prevent abortions. The pill is NOT shown to reduce the overall demand for abortion in locations where it is readily available. Some studies show the opposite. Additionally the pill sometimes can operate by an interceptive mechanism, otherwise known as post fertilization mechanism, which can kill the early human embryo before implantation. This information is available in the drug information for the prescribers . It is not usually found in the information given to the patient.

Yep, that question was waaaay over Rima’s head, but a response based on medical facts would surely have been found unacceptable to the judges of the Miss USA contest.

Duh!! The San Diego Decision to Boycott Arizona should be considered “Merely Symbolic”.

FOXNews.com – San Diego Faces Own Medicine as Arizona Residents Cancel Travel Following Boycott of State.

Those idiots are shocked to see Arizona citizens returning the favor to San Diego by cancelling their flight and hotel tickets and changing their vacation plans.

Pharmer suggests diverting your business away from those cities which express opposition to states’ rights to protect their own populations from the onslaught of illegal immigration.

Blast from the Past: presidents who enhanced the deportation of illegals to increase JOB prospects for returning servicemen and other Americans are Harry Truman, Herbert Hoover and Dwight Eisenhower.

Read right HERE – the Obama delegation apologized to China about the Arizona immigration law. Wonder why the whole world is laughing at US now???

Gateway Pundit ponders what would happen if Arizona cuts off electricity which it supplies to California. So much for LA, San Diego, San Francisco, etc……….
