Arby’s would be doing better if it didn’t keep shooting itself in the foot all the time. The latest e pic Fail is the restaurant chain’s tardy decision to drop advertizing on the Rush Limbaugh show, in response to Rush insulting sluts and prostitutes by comparing Sandra Fluke to them.
Naturally this decision resulted in negative responses from people on Twitter. Arbys decided to shoot its other foot for symmetry, says THIS article on the Blaze: they blocked those who responded negatively to its decision.
Take time to read HERE.. You’ll be laughing at Arbys for pretending that if they can’t see the customer complaints, they must not be happening.

Obama Threatens Supreme Court
Some believe that Obama has received a leak about the Supreme Court’s initial decision regarding the Obamacare Mandate. Obama has delivered an address attacking the authority of the Supreme Court on the matter of overturning federal legislation. This stance is odd for a person still hoping for judicial favor of his policy.
Said Obama: “Ultimately, I am confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress” Obama also mentioned the fact that Obamacare would cease to exist without the funding mandate: “I think the justices should understand, in the absence of an individual mandate, you cannot have a mechanism to ensure that people with pre-existing conditions can actually have health care.”
In fact there is no severability clause in the bill, because the framers recognized that it could not function without that means of funding. The pre-existing condition problem has been addressed long ago with the HIPPA regulations. One of those P’s stands for portability. As people go from job to job, there is a mechanism to hold onto health insurance so that future employers cannot deny treatment for pre-existing conditions. The passage of Obamacare was done by flouting many of the usual congressional procedures, and, despite the trickery, no large majority of favor was obtained. A large majority of Americans continue to want the entire bill repealed.
From the past we know that Obama does not really respect the court functions as he flouted a district court regarding his refusal to grant oil rig drilling permits in the Gulf of Mexico. He also failed to appear when subpoenaed in Georgia on the matter of his election eligibility.
Here’s Obama’s statement that might cause the Supreme Court Justices to wonder when they’ll be thrown into the truck of a car, or die suddenly, with inconclusive autopsy results, as Andrew Breitbart did.
“For years, what we’ve heard is the biggest problem on the bench was judicial activism or the lack of judicial restraint, that an unelected group of people would somehow overturn a duly constituted and passed law,” he said at a news conference. The health-care case is a good example of just that, he said. “And I’m pretty confident that this court will recognize that and not take that step.”
The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals has taken a dim view of Obama’s disrespect for the Supreme Court, and lack of respect for the constitutional separation of powers. His Justice Department has been requested to submit a report on the administrations views regarding the authority of the court to rule on the constitutionality of federal laws.
Mourdock Nails Lugar with Gas Tax Ad
Did Lugar really support a one dollar per gallon gas tax?? Yes… it was an idea coming from the not-really-conservative Charles Krauthammer, which Lugar endorsed in the Washington Post. This was supposedly a tax on gas which would discourage gas usage, but would be offset by a cut in the payroll tax. Lugar claimed that every working American pays this tax.
Pharmer’s understanding is that every American, who is employed by another, pays this tax. This leaves the self employed to be screwed by the gas tax with no offset. This latter group has been abused too much by the government. Also the payroll tax is the funding vehicle for social security. Is it a good idea to raid the mechanism for paying social security (which is already in the hole) without reducing social security outlays first?
Lugar’s solution was for the government to make a sin tax for gasoline use, to discourage our dependency on oil, and to encourage fuel alternatives. Always a government tax solution for every problem …… he has been in Washington too long.
Blast from the Past: Barack O’ Bollywood
This video is some fun from the last election period. It still fits, since Obama is running a campaign that denies the last three and a half years he has been in the White House. Lower the Seas!
The song is Chori Chori Hum Gori Se, from “The Guru” ….. waiting for the arrival of that perfect gurl.
Is Conservatism Our Default Ideology? – Miller-McCune
Is Conservatism Our Default Ideology? – Miller-McCune.
Drudge carried this story about a “study” implying that when people are under time pressure or cognitively impaired, they default to conservative positions. As a result, the Miller-McCune site, which carried the article is being bombarded with conservative views.
The underlying fault of the study, led by Scott Eidelman at Arkansas University, is that it works from false premises of what American Conservatism really represents. For example: how can the conservative position that ” production and trade should be free of government interference” be said to align with “ acceptance of hierarchy, and a preference for the status quo” ??
The problem is that much of what is called conservative thought is the opposite of the stereotypes heaped upon conservatives by the non-productive, non-inventive, parasitic left wing that infests academia.
American conservatives are preserving a unique and ground breaking social policy that recognizes God-given human rights, celebrates and encourages individual creativity, productivity and responsibility. Leftists are harking back (devolving) to the top down system in which the government oversees and regulates all their efforts. This springs from a general, overriding feeling that they cannot succeed on their own.
On Conservative Distrust of Science
There’s a ‘study’ which concludes that Conservatives increasingly distrust science, and this group has shown the greatest change from trust to distrust in the last three-plus decades. The author attributes the intertwining of science and public policy as a possible reason. Left out of the coverage is the issue of rampant dishonesty and fraud, which has become increasingly visible to those outside the research fields.
In the coverage at the Blaze, there is an interesting comment that people don’t really agree on what science is. It’s a fact that most people, as a result of the dismal failures in education, have no idea that science is a methodology for studying the physical phenomena. Many of them erroneously think that science is an aggregation of information honored as “fact” by consensus.
Retraction Watch <—– See a blog which monitors science journal retractions. This exemplifies the main reason why there’s a growing distrust of science. People observe and hear of rampant fraud and abuse. An example of this, the Global Warming Hoax (cult religion), has become very expensive to us.
This former researcher, and present day pharmacist is often hard pressed to distinguish what appears in NEJM, JAMA and Lancet from what is written in the Journal of Irreproducible Results.
Among the false intellectuals who dominate academia, there is little sense of accountability. They scoff at the idea that a person has responsibility to others. This is passed on to their students.
The natural result is dishonesty and work product of low quality. Conservatives, who show a tendency to think in a more left brain fashion, would be the first to notice this and register the loss of confidence.
Obama Loves Planned Parenthood
Some people arrange flowers, and Pharmer arranges videos.
Obama forgets that Planned Parenthood does not provide mammograms.
Mammograms are not a money maker, and Planned Parenthood does not offer them.
Planned Parenthood is caught accepting a donation specifically to abort a Black baby.
Live Action Classic films show Planned parenthood aiding and abetting sex slavery: Click HERE for the VIDEO SERIES that the launched state and federal investigations, which caused Komen Foundation’s attempt to withdraw funding. Unfortunately Komen was not able to shake free of its abuser, and is suffering as a result. There will be repeated media reminders to Komen that they must stay with their abusive “spouse”.
More Crimes Which Must Be Addressed In Congress
In order to maintain consistency with the handling of the Trayvon Martin killing by registered democrat, George Zimmerman, the parents of these crime victims should have their day before the U.S. House of Representatives.
Trayvon Martin Hoodie protest participant, Akeem Johnson, beats up his girlfriend, and kidnaps her, his anti-violence stance at the rally notwithstanding. A neighbor intervened as he was dragging her through his yard and she escaped. Johnson, a former college football player is held on $200,ooo bond.
A thirteen year old Kansas City boy was attacked by two black youths, on his way home from school. He was in front of his house when they doused him with gas, and ignited it, saying “This is what you deserve, you get what you deserve white boy”. The family has removed the boy from the school and is moving away from the neighborhood.
In an effort to gin up violent sentiment against George Zimmerman, Spike Lee retweeted the wrong address. The McClains, who have a son named William George Zimmerman, were forced to flee their home and move into a hotel to get away from the rain of threats which ensued.
Trent Crump, along with Duntae Harvey and Mason Jones, are being held in conjunction with the shooting death of John Sanderson, a 21 year old Mississippi State University Student.
Not really…….. we should not be parading crime victims or their families before Congress. Those things should be handled at the local level. This Trayvon Martin incident is being used to fulfill a political agenda. Even his mother has applied to trademark his name in the hopes for obtaining cash from the merchandise produced for this political circus.
Political analyst, Juan Williams, has touched on some background issues that led up to this crime, and wonders why there is a circus surrounding this event, and no effort to address the root causes. Read his article in the WSJ.
Operation Rescue: Haskell Watch
Cincinnati Right to Life has reported to Operation Rescue that an ambulance has transported a patient from the Womans Med Center in Sharonville, Ohio during the morning of March 28,2012.
Dr Steven Brinn, a pediatrician in a neighboring office, stated that the woman was being bagged (breathing assistance) and carried out on a stretcher by paramedics.
Haskell lacks hospital privileges required for abortion practices by Ohio law. He has a variance fpr the Sharonville clinic because two other physicians have agreed to cover his “accidents”. One of them is William T Bowers III, who is under probation in Ohio, under criminal investigation in Indiana, and who has lost his license to practice obstetrics in Kentucky.
Haskell operates an abortion clinic in Kettering, staffed by Roslyn Kade and Neil Strickland. Three doctors who cover for their abortions at Miami Valley Hospital, Dayton OH, are Lawrence Amesse, Sheela Barhan and Janice Duke.
Operation Rescue details the possible reasons why Haskell has obtained preferential treatment from politicians, and exemption from compliance with Ohio’s law requiring that abortionists have hospital admitting privileges. Click HERE.
Haskell and former Sen John Glenn had a history of mutual assistance. Glenn appointed Haskell’s supporting, Federal District Court Judge, Algenon Marbley. Haskell is vice president of Beta Theta Pi, a prestigious fraternity with such luminary members as Sen. Richard Lugar, and former Senators Dick Gephart, Mark Hatfield, and Bob Packwood.
Pharmer would like to remind the public that many “accidents” at the abortion clinics, which do not occur while pro-life protesters are stationed outside, remain hidden. Health care professionals and institutions fear reprisals if any patient identifying data were to be accidentally given if they were to reveal abortion related injuries and deaths.
