Author: From http://rappahannockred.wordpress.com • Aug 2nd, 2009
   Category: Blog Entries.Local, Politics

This is the second of two posts which takes a look at the ObamaCare “Healthcare” Bill that Nancy Pelosi, Waxman, and Obama are trying to ramrod down America’s throat. Regardless of your party today, if this is passed as written, we can kiss our country goodbye tomorrow. This isn’t about healthcare at all, it’s all about total control of your private lives!

Don’t believe me?  Think it’s being ‘radical’ or ‘extreme’ to say this? … READ THE BILL YOURSELF! Post a response and debate the issue but for America’s sake, on the off chance that this is exactly as bad as it seems- call your congressman and tell him/her to not vote for this bill or any trace of it!

Thanks to BOA for breaking these next 500 pages down for us (for the first 500 page breakdown, click here: first 500 pages explained):

QOTD: Tennessee Senator Lamar Alexander

Author: From http://www.odonnellweb.com • Jul 31st, 2009
   Category: Blog Entries.Local, Politics

“Even though Judge Sotomayor’s political and judicial philosophy may be different than mine, especially regarding Second Amendments rights, I will vote to confirm her because she is well qualified by experience, temperament, character and intellect to serve. In the same way, it is my hope that my vote now not only will help to confirm a well-qualified nominee but will help to return the Senate to the practice, only recently lost, of inquiring diligently into qualifications of a nominee and then accepting that elections have consequences, one of which is to confer upon the president the constitutional right to nominate justices.”

American Life League is leading the charge in informing the public about Obama’s pro-death policies. His latest claim to ramroding a socialist agenda into your private and business lives is the Healthcare bill.  He took six months to choose a family dog!  Now he wants congress to vote on a healthcare bill none of them have even read!

Video Expose on Obamacare- See Canadian Healthcare in Reality- Watch this!

   Category: Blog Entries.Local, Politics

EVERY American needs to watch this!  Put politics aside for 20 minutes, then FIND OUT  if your elected leader wants you on nationalized healthcare or not. Watch this and decide if YOUR senator and congressman is one who is trying to shove this crap down your throat!

3 YEARS to get a doctor’s appointment?  Pay an EXTRA $900 to see a private doctor- MAYBE?  If you have cash you can see a doctor “somedays”.  Come back 4 days later for your Tetnis shot from that rusty nail you stepped on. Baby needs urgent care for lifeless body actions and fever, wait seven hours and be told to go home, your baby has gas. 7 months to see a Dermatologist? 

WELCOME TO OBAMACARE!  You may literally DIE waiting for a doctor under this “plan”!!!!

Like OMG! Laura Sellers, 24, Is Totally Asking for Your Vote to Be the Garrisonville District Supervisor in Stafford County

Author: From http://rappahannockred.wordpress.com • Jul 21st, 2009
   Category: Blog Entries.Local, Politics, Stafford

From today’s Free Lance-Star:

Laura Sellers is single, 24 years old and lives with her parents. Not unusual information, but not something you usually see on the resume of a candidate for the Stafford County Board of Supervisors. Sellers is the Democratic nominee, facing incumbent Mark Dudenhefer for the Garrisonville seat in November.

“Stafford needs a new political face,” she said. “I want to give the youth–high school students and people my age–a voice in Stafford.” “I want to live at home,” she added. “I don’t have to live at home.”

She decided it was time to get involved when she learned that one of her favorite teachers was considering a move to Spotsylvania for better pay.

“To hear that teachers are being taken advantage of–that impacted me,” Sellers said. “Their profession needs to be respected.”

She claims a systematic, research-based approach to her campaign, and believes her studying has made her familiar with the history of political issues in Stafford. Although she announced her campaign only days before the filing deadline, she said she has been preparing to run since February. “I am making sure that I’m doing this the right way,” Sellers said. “I’m always willing to listen and ask questions.

I’m not some kid who has nothing better to do.”

******UPDATE 7/22/09: Laura’s opponent, Mark Dudenhefer, contacted me via email and made the following request, “Mr. Martin,  I would appreciate it if you would tone down your Jul 21 posting on Miss Sellers.  Miss Sellers and I have agreed that we will only run  positive campaigns and not participate in personal attacks of any kind.  I believe that Miss Sellers is a bright young women and should be applauded for her desire to become engaged in the political process. Thanks for your cooperation. Sincerely, Mark Dudenhefer”*******

While it’s unexpected from any political figure to ask a third party to stop picking on someone’s opponent in an election year, it’s fair enough request to make as sometimes we bloggers take things a little too far (see daily posts at fred2blue.com for examples of bizarre viewpoints not grounded in reality) and about half of what I write!  So I re-read my wholeheartedly tongue-in-cheek response to the article I referenced above in the Free Lance-Star and realized I was a touch harsh about Miss Laura’s age.  I’ve never met Laura in person so I really don’t knowthat she says “like” and “totally” a lot for example, and for all I know, she’s a fricken genius who would make a fine supervisor and make great decisions.

 Based solely on her quoted responses to the FLS writer (Jonas Beals), I made the judgements I made and chose to write my snarky perceptions that I was probably intended to have once the editors got hold of Jonas’ copy.  It appears to me that the newspaper either chose to omit all the fantastic qualifications Laura Sellers has to become supervisor, OR they wrote a completely fair and impartial report of what she actually said and believes.  YOU have to be the judge of that… blogs are merely a sounding board for one side of any story, and should never be taken as 100% factual.  Nor should newspapers—read everything you can find on a subject and then find out for YOURSELF by getting involved in a campaign or at the very least picking up the phone or sending an email to hear a response to your concerns from the source.

With that being said, I think it takes a lot of class for the Dudester to take the time from his busy schedule to even care what a blogger says about anyone, let alone his opponent. Maybe this is yet another sign that the public is starting to take notice of the validity of viewpoints that are outside the MSM (MainStream Media) and maybe he’s forward thinking enough to acknowledge the repercussions our mighty blog has on the world-order and balance (probably not so much). I don’t agree with him that something I say would reflect poorly on “him” since he didn’t put words at my fingertips, but if the guy wants to fight his campaign mano-e-womano, then I’m going to let him do so.  He is, after all, a U.S. Marine, so I think he can handle it.

I have LONG contended that printed newspapers, and even television news will be functionally DEAD in a decade or less as the NEW MEDIA world takes over with news reporting from the SOURCE of the news via cell phone video, podcasts, blogs, self-made video shows and so forth.  If they manage to stay in business at all, it should be nearly inarguable that their impact on society and news gathering/reporting will be effectively neutered by then. Our society is much more ’self-aware’ than ever, and we finally have the power to communicate to the masses as individuals rather than via a handful of corruptible media-men (ahem Dan Rather, Walter Cronkite, New York Times, CNN). 

The only trouble with a blog is that it is archived and by now people have cut & pasted it and emailed to friends, so to ‘delete’ an entry may be construed as trying to hide something, which I’m not (hence I use my real name), but I want to accommodate the request of the greatest supervisor to ever walk Garrisonville’s neighborhoods seeking to make life better for all in his county, so the next best thing to do is strike-through it and drop the subject.

Therefore- don’t read the following commentary!

lauraSoooo…. maybe run for school board instead?

Maybe just stay home and Facebook with your friends as you complete your psychology degree?

I don’t mean to discourage young people from running, I think they should- but let’s be honest—that young person should be *exceptional* at what they are capable of when it comes to the public policy set for 140,000 of your fellow neighbors of all ages and needs. 

Someone who hasn’t set foot in their own apartment for the first time, raised a family or begun her career to grasp what taxes and public services are all about—let alone learned how government works—should probably not run for an office she isn’t remotely qualified for.

What possible life experiences does she bring to your family’s home that makes her ready to set your tax rate and decide if you get a cop or fireman to respond to your needs?

Examine the life experience  and perspective that make Laura qualified to be your next supervisor:

  • Setting the county’s tax rate is just like deciding whether or not to download the new Kanye West song on iTunes. She makes great decisions, and Laura knows you should never spend more than $0.99 for a song.
  • Choosing to build a new fire station is a lot like choosing to hang out with your friends at Starbucks. Laura can make the tough calls when it comes to hot topics.
  • Preserving Crows Nest is highly similar to preserving your cell phone service by having dad pay the bill. Preservation is like, so important.
  • Lobbying Richmond for more funding for VDOT to repair our roads is just like asking for more student loans from the tuition assistance supervisor. Laura has mastered the art of saying “pleeeease?”
  • Establishing relationships with surrounding jurisdictions is so totally like IM’ing a stranger and making them your Facebook friend. Laura is friendly and gosh darnit, people like her.
  • Balancing a county’s $300 million budget is not much different from only spending what’s on your parents’ credit card for new shoes. Laura knows shoes!
  • Keeping a bond rating at ‘A’ is a lot like getting ‘A’s’ in school. Laura knows how important and A is, and wants everyone to have A’s.
  • School teachers should be paid more. Laura agrees with US Congressional candidate Krystal Ballthat teachers should make a kajillion dollars a year and someone else should pay for it.
  • Choosing a planning commissioner that affects the land use and zoning laws for the county is akin to finding a good prom date. Laura isn’t quite sure what a planning commissioner is yet, but once she finds out, she is totally going to pick a good one.
  • Laura wants to represent YOU and YOUR needs. After all, like what are B.F.F.’s for??

… or you can just choose the incumbent, Mark Dudenhefer, retired Marine officer and someone who requires no “on the job” training.  Oh, and Mark lives in his own house and pays his own real estate taxes too.

Obama’s Healthcare Plan: Your Mom May Not Get the Surgery, But Maybe She Just Needs a Pain Killer Instead

Author: From http://rappahannockred.wordpress.com • Jul 20th, 2009
   Category: Blog Entries.Local, Politics

Priceless! Obama really has no respect for life at all.  Not the preborn, and not the elderly.  How selfish can one man be?

Planned Parenthood is so proud of Obama.  This is the type of thing that great pro-life organizations like American Life League fight against all the time.  Being pro-life isn’t just about being anti-abortion, it’s about human rights at all ages and the dignity that all life deserves, not the least of which is the right to life itself!

Krystal Ball’s FEC Report Reveals Uranium, Secrecy, High Finance Handlers … and Switzerland?

Author: From http://rappahannockred.wordpress.com • Jul 14th, 2009
   Category: Blog Entries.Local, Politics

Krystal Ball’s Federal Elections Commission report was released today in her campaign to bring her experience in baby diapers and passion for nuclear-free $100,000 teachers to the forefront of U.S. Congress. 

Representative Rob Wittman, the incumbent, is prudently not taking her candidacy as a joke (as I am) and is working at his usual breakneck speed to balance both the job of being a real congressman and being the eternal candidate that our system requires of our House of Representatives every two years.

While it is not unusual to see contributors from outside one’s home district in this age of borderless areas—like EUROPE— I don’t think I’ve ever seen a report that had such a disproportion such as this: Crystal Ball FEC contributors report . 

What you’ll see here in the PDF is 68 cash contributions listed totaling $96,215.00Not bad for a first time candidate about 16 months to election day.  However, she’ll need something on the order of $1-2 million to give it a real effort if she’s going to unseat one of the hardest working guys in politics today.  There’s always “hope” for Krystal, and who knows- we may see Terry McAuliffe back in Virginia to help her out with a really big check. [cue the dramatic music]

But dig  just under the surface a bit and you’ll see her source of cash revealed like the Dariyanani family… huge Hillary Clilnton and Obama/Biden supporters for example using profit money from companies like LeapFrog (a toy designed to make kids work harder and smarter) to elect liberals (who work hard to make kids dumber.)

No wait- that’s her husband and his family.  Now why doesn’t he show up in her campaign photos anywhere?  It’s like reading a “Where’s Waldo” book. 

Maybe it’s because there’s something to hide from his financial attachment to a URANIUM company and its foreign holdings?  … I’m just sayin …  Congresswoman … Uranium … secret husband … foreign money …  multiple finance and capital corporations funding a 27 year-old no name candidate!?!?  I think there’s a new Bourne movie in the works here.

That’s not as interesting as the locations of the rest of her cash: NV, CA, NY, UT, AZ, MD, NM, WA, TX, FL, MI, OK and Switzerland! 

So wait, contributions from major liberal underwriters, a bunch of lawyers, a bunch of investment holding companies and a Uranium stock holder all get intermixed with a Swiss chocolate company to contribute to Krystal’s success?  No wait- mistake- the Swiss company is a capital lender (whew!) that makes it less suspicious.

No need for a terrorist watch list to get triggered here folks.  Nothing to see.  She’s no pro-life, conservative, advocating for constitutional principles or part of a church organization.  She passes with flying colors- give her the special red badge to get into congressional appropriations meetings.

When you boil it down to the same families and households (pets and 4 year old kids count in ACORN elections too,) then there’s more like 30-ish unique donors. and there’s some heavy hitters in there like housewife Shabnam Jessa who gave the maximum allowed $4,800. Not to be outdone, Bharat Bhise kicked in $500, Manisha Sabnani’s husband Sanji offered up $2,400 and Michael Moore “weighed in” with $1,000. 

Now THAT’S GRASSROOTS fundraising folks– Virginia style! Okay, so she’s “popular” with the boys, no harm there. but wait- shouldn’t we add up how much money she raised in VIRGINIA? … from her constituents? … from the people who will VOTE FOR HER?

In what appears to be an after thought on the list, Krystal added herself last with a $500 donation whose aggregate donation to her own campaign is now $1,000 … that’s putting your money where your mouth is Krystal and I applaud you for your dedication.  Once her family is removed from the donation record, we see the final tally from Virginians to the Krystal Ball for Congress campaign is a total of $1,750.

You be the judge who wants to see this kid elected.  I’m just thinking it’s NOT VIRGINIANS IN THE 1st CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT is all.
