Wake up in your Right Mind
Even prior to his famous and viral speech, lots of people have been asking the plain spoken and practical Dr. Benjamin Carson to run for president.
Here’s another interview, in which Dr. Carson informs us that he will retire from pediatric neurosurgery, and move into the area of education.
Available HERE is an interview with Allen West, who explains that, in the eyes of the leftie media, Dr. Carson broke the unwritten rule that Black men cannot criticize Obama.
After you watch this, you’ll know much more about guns than most of your politicians who presume to regulate them. The major take home point is that the proposed legislation will have more effect on guns which shoot small caliber bullets, and not those which would clean out a room, or put a huge hole in a target. Obviously the regulations are not intended for protection. Overall, the government wants to remove access to the guns which are easiest for smaller people to manipulate and shoot accurately.
Obama’s explanation for the American lives lost in the Benghazi embassy is “sloppiness…. not intentional”. Listen to more, for yourself, if you are feeling bulimic today. Hillary fell down, hit her empty head, and is unlikely to ever appear before Congress to explain her part in the debacle. No one from the Obama administration has lost their job as a result of this neglect. Requests from security forces leaving Benghazi last August, and repeated requests from the embassy itself, for more security, were rebuffed by the CIA and the White house. Calls for help during the attack were met with direct refusals to assist, and orders to neighboring security forces to stand down. After the attack, no American personnel were sent to investigate for weeks, and CNN reporters freely roamed the premises, picking up classified documents. This odd lack of concern is what fueled the popular idea that Obama has been sending arms to Al Quaeda, and no one involved in that mission was to survive.
But Obama tells us that he had no ulterior motives, he’s just incompetent, and he doesn’t mind letting the entire world know it.
That should be reassuring to everyone who’s thinking of giving up their guns to government buy back programs, and supporting new and useless gun bans.
It took police about 20 minutes to respond to the school shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary, which is NOT a remote area. Teachers and children in public schools are unarmed and unprotected as a matter of public policy.
The government has shown us again and again that it lacks the ability and resolve to protect us from violent and crazy people.
Is your life worth protecting? Please understand that the government is unwilling or too incompetent to help you with that. It’s a job that you’ll have to do yourself, if you think you’re worth it.
Someone has probably come to this conclusion, but Pharmer hasn’t seen it yet.
We have heard thatDavid Petraeus’s leaky girlfriend, Paula Broadwell spilled some classified type beans at the University of Denver. She says that her ex boyfriend David knew almost immediately that there was a TERROR attack on the Libyan embassy in Benghazi.
Meanwhile, her ex-boyfriend David had testified in a closed congressional meeting that the attack on the embassy was inspired by that anti-Muslim video that almost nobody saw.
We also know that the FBI and people higher up in Washington knew quite some time ago that David and Paula had been doing the wild thing, and that David obsessively sent thousands of emails to Paula after their breakup, thereby making an utter fool of himself.
Heres Pharmer’s guess, just from the little news which has come out on the matter:
David Petraeus was the real security problem, because he compromised himself, and was in turn compromised from within the Obama administration. Obama’s Abysmal Foreign Policy was concealed with the help of Petraeus because they had the goods on him. They could tell the world what a drooling old fool he was for Paula, and what was in all the humiliating emails he sent to her when she broke up him. Therefore it wasn’t hard for the thugs in Chicago to get David Petraeus to lie for Obama to congress. This lie very likely affected the outcome of the election. Even people who live for free Obama stash might have found this cover up of Obama’s Abysmal Foreign Policy too much to handle.
The conservatives that we have in Congress are still a minority. We’ll have to wait to see what the majority of wimps think about this.
Government Bureaucracy In Hurricane – Business Insider.
This story of a Chinese Restauranteur in lower Manhattan being harassed by an NYC food inspector has gone viral, as an example of big government gone useless.
Without electricity and water, this restaurant remained open to serve the public by candle light. A buffet dinner was interrupted by a food inspector with his flashlight, disrupting the lives of ordinary citizens being served a hot meal as they begin the work to rebuild.
Meanwhile Barack Obama was touring the New Jersey Shore with Governor Chris Christie, and promising to cut red tape and suspend regulations to help speed up the rebuilding process.
Sooooooo why is the government standing in the way of the citizens the rest of the time?
Remember the hand wringing prior to “Hurricane” Irene hitting the northeastern seaboard? Well, they do this every time. Soon no one will listen to the lamestream weather criers anymore, and perhaps everyone will fail to respond when a real disaster hits. This time, Matt Drudge, who is a disaster junkie, has been saving his red headlines for the stories about federally induced storm panic.
Sandy is one large storm, but as it’s hitting land it doesn’t rate as a hurricane if you pay attention to the wind data coming from the weather stations which feed Wunderground.com.
Pharmer picked two… One in Robbins’ Reef NJ, because there was news about evacuations in New York City, and one in little Assateague Island, out there all by itself, east of Maryland. Pharmer expects the storm to blast that island hardest.
The wind data is in Kilometers per hour on the weather station flags. Look at the graphs and you won’t see wind gusts above 50 mph, and sustained winds are much milder. You know what that means. It’s just like a summer storm, down on the Pharm, only lasting longer than usual.
It’s a mess, but not worth the big warnings to evacuate.
Why does the media cause more economic destruction than the storm would by itself??
Sandy makes landfall
Little Assateague Island Weather station. Remember, the 60 is wind gust in KILOMETERS per hour, not MPH
See the wind speed graph of Assategue with MPH scale on the LEFT
Weather Stations around Robbins Reef and NYC
Check the Robbins Reef Wind speed graph below.
Sorry weather criers, Sandy is not going to give Obama such a big chance to look presidential. In fact, we might even be able to get back to learning more about why Obama refused help to the Libyan Embassy in Benghazi when it was attacked.
Update: Pharmer sees the weather stations still tracking after midnight, with the wind not getting worse, and…….. you know the power hasn’t been knocked out yet.
Update: 6am 10/29 Winds at Robbins Reef, NJ are around 30-35mph, and gusts have not yet hit 50mph. The worst of the storm has blown through Assateague, MD, but another milder area is overhead. Winds there are calm and they’re getting a LOT of rain.
Update: 1:18 pm The storm has shifted direction and is heading north ward. Winds are picking up at Robbins Reef, with sustained winds in the 40s and with gusts in the 50s MPH. Unfortunately for Assateague, the storm turned before blowing further westward. It looks like the weather station is giving winds ranging from zero to gusts in the 80’s. As it is registering mostly calm winds, Pharmer thinks it’s down.
Wunderground has stopped displaying weather station data, due to bandwidth shortage as of just before 2 pm. The winds at Ocean city, MD have appeared to die down to the teens.
So far it looks like – Pharmer is right, the media has kept Sandy awfulized to a hurricane, though it hit as a tropical storm. But Pharmer is wrong about needing to evacuate. Flooding is turning out to be cause for evacuations in coastal areas not prepared for such Wetness.
The politics? REALLY! Obama flew to Florida to campaign yesterday, but was flown back to monitor the storm. What’s on the news? The Obama campaign is wondering whether the storm can be utilized to help his reelection effort. Tacky Tacky Tacky.
Pharmer sez, use Wunderground and your own gossip chains, NOT the media, to decide where to send aid to wet and cold people.
UPDATE midnight 1029 to show Graphs from 10-29
Robbins Reef NJ on day 2 This place is getting the most wind.
Assateague Island on 10-29, showing when it’s wind monitor broke.
Ocean City inlet, MD which is near Assateague, was picked up to display the wind on 10-29. Be sure to check the amazing change in wind direction which is shown at midday. This is close to the time that Assateague’s wind monitor wiped out.
Update 10-30-12
Robbin’s Reef, NJ on 10-30
Ocean City, MD on 10-30
Assateague Island’s wind monitor spinner remains busted, but the directional vane is still sending data. 10-30
Sandy is pretty much finished with these three locations, and now they can start mopping up the mess.
Why did the weather stations send continuous data to the internet? No power outage at those locations, near where Sandy made landfall.
Pharmer spotted a document coming from the Campus Progress brench of the Center for American Progress on the Student Loan Crisis, and felt compelled to respond:
Our government has been selling the idea that college education is an absolute necessity, and should be accessible by everyone. Naturally this has led to an influx of students, some of whom are completely unprepared for college level classes, and who have obtained government grants and various loans to enter school. Many have absolutely no intention of repaying the loans.
All things administered and/or funded by the government will increase in price far faster than baseline inflation.
Education and healthcare are prime examples of this.
The real problem is NOT that a private lender is willing to give a loan to a student and gets the student to agree to a specific payment plan and interest rate. The true travesty is that colleges and universities are so eager to sell useless degrees and propaganda to students which are actually detrimental to their employment future. Many of the universities are willfully inculcating helplessness. Students are graduating with no job prospects in their area of training.
The problem is also not with the existence of for profit educational institutions. It is that the government is paying for unprepared students to go there, or granting loans for the same. Without this government intervention, many of the most problematic educational institutions would not have even been formed in the first place. The education bubble will pop just as the housing bubble did, because loans were made to people who could or would not repay them. This could have been stopped by requiring a significant down payment to be coming from the students themselves. The result of the education crisis will be similar to that of the housing crisis: massive loan defaults and a broken industry, with increased joblessness.
The increase in costs to the students is being blamed on reduction in government funding for educational institutions. Some people don’t realize that the debt for educational funding is passed to the students when they begin working.
The students will pay for education one way or another, by working their way through, by paying loans, and by paying the taxes which support our educational institutions with their bloated infrastructures and administrations.
The one difference is that the TAXES which will support the colleges and universities are paid by ALL tax payers including those who cannot afford to go to college. For one example, the pharmacy techs where I work, could not afford to go to college when they were young, but they are paying taxes for the children of other people to go straight through four years of college on the government dime, or on government loans which will often be defaulted. Some of the techs have slowly obtained college education as they work, and one by one, they head off into new careers.
The American people, who worked their way through higher education, and those who are still unable to do so, need to be informed that THEY ARE EXPECTED TO PAY FOR UNIVERSITY STUDENTS WHO THINK EDUCATION OUGHT TO BE FREE!!!!
Nothing is free.
First of all we need to understand that college education is not for everyone. More than half of people don’t have the kind of academic acumen to get through a traditional four year program. They should be encouraged (never forced) to go into a career and education program that fits their abilities, instead of being propelled towards certain failure and crippling debt.
The solution is for the educational institutions to stop building useless infrastructure which wastes energy and resources, and to fire all of their excess/useless administrators. Our higher education has to be leaner and more cost effective. Too much of it is run by greedy, money grubbing, frequently leftist 1%-ers who need to be replaced by those who know where money comes from, and would be wise stewards of whatever funding comes their way. When these changes come about, the cost of education to students and to the tax payers will drop.
Currently there are private programs which pay grants to students to NOT go to traditional colleges, and go straight into industry. It’s an awesome experiment and may serve to tap the creativity of young people before the universities suck it out of them. Cultural education is being moved out of the universities and housed in on-line resources. Testing and internships or apprenticeships, have been added as university requirements to enter more and more professions which require high skill. This is evinces the failure of universities to provide the necessary preparation for real world opportunities. This provides a strong impetus for higher education to be “homeschooled” and obtained online.
In short, our creativity and inventiveness will only be preserved to the extent that we can escape governmental control of our access to educational resources and opportunities.
Unlike the days of Nixon, the media has assisted Obama in his cover-up of the actual occurrences and portrayed a false view of both the occurrences in Benghazi during the U.S. Ambassador to Libya was killed along with three other Americans.
CBS has decided to do a 180 and bust both itself and Obama for the negligence and the coverup, which resulted in unraveling of the U.S. stature in the Middle East, as well as the unnecessary loss of life which extends far beyond the four people killed at the Embassy.
Libya-Gate is far too gentle a name for the egregious failure and negligence and dishonesty which characterizes the handling of the Benghazi incident. The cover-up of the Watergate burglary is Nothing compared to this.
CBS has let loose an unaired 60 minutes clip which establishes that Obama lied about the nature of the attack on the Libyan Embassy.
The White House had intelligence on the attack two hours after it started. The attack proceeded without response from the U.S. for many hours, at the end of which, the final two victims lost their lives. It is established that the attack was pre-planned and organized by Al Quaida
If you will recall,we were told repeatedly by the Obama administration and its media allies that the attacks sprang out of natural protests of a video that almost Nobody knew about before the U.S. government advertised it.
What is essentially has been coming out of this incident is that the Obama Administration has been assisting the wrong Midde East factions,Al-Quaeda is alive and well, Obama failed to answer the “3am call” -choosing to campaign and raise funds instead, Obama and the media covered it up, and an American has been illegally persecuted for producing a video that had nothing to do with this.
CBS chose not to air this clip from Sixty Minutes for an entire month.
Welfare spending jumps 32% in four years – Washington Times.
From 2008 to 2011, Welfare spending has risen 32% to 746 billion dollars.
Job shortages and expansion of the criteria for welfare eligibility are responsible for the huge increase in spending.
The number of food stamp recipients is up 50% in the last four years, from 32 million to 47 million.

Drudge devoted two headlines to this story:
Michelle Dunaj, near the end of her battle with Leukemia, decided to take a last trip to Hawaii to see family and friends. Though she took efforts to inquire and comply with rules covering the handling of her medications, TSA agents punctured and contaminated one of her bags of IV fluids. Though she asked to be screened in private, the TSA gropers refused (which is said to be against policy, and did their dirty work in public, pulling up her top and inspecting under bandages that held her feeding tube in place.
How much more of the TSA will Americans tolerate?
This video provides further details of Ms. Dunaj’s humiliating experience with the TSA.
Thanks to Michelle Dunaj for taking some of her precious last moments to inform the public and justifiably trash the TSA.
