How Obama and the Democrats won the Health Care Debate

The conservative argument against the Obama health care plan has got to be the best kept secret for its success that the democrats could have ever wished for.
Ask yourselves, is the health care system really broken? If you answered yes then we can all but guest what your answer to this next question might be.
Does the health care system in the United States need to be reformed?
If you are conservative and have answered yes to either one of these question or to both of them then Obama has won. That’s right the dems have won the day with a perfect exercise of the ole switch a rue.
Obama started his run for the White House touting the need for reform both on Wall Street an in Washington. Chief among those reforms was fixing Ameirca’s broken medical system. The liberals asserted that the medical systems had failed; It had failed under capitalism and free enterprise; it had failed to provide affordable medical coverage to some 47 million Americans. Democrats went further then that. They morally condemn the nation as one that—despite its great wealth—failed to meet it moral obligation to its citizens when it came to providing them with access to affordable medical coverage. This latter accusation was the straw that broke the camels back. It caused the conservative moral majority to explode.
And true to form the conservative right rushed to the front in defense of truth, justice and the American way. The conservative battle cry for the preservation freedom and capitalism through smaller government went forth to masses causing their constituents out of fear of losing their freedoms to take to the streets.
Never as much as a whisper from the conservative leadership questioning the validity and soundness of facts given by the socialist liberals in support of their assertion that the system was broken. Why, because in reality conservatives only wish to appear contrary or opposed to the democratic ideas of socialist freedom and opportunity. But in reality they walk in lock step with the democratic socialist party just across the aisle from them.
Think about it. Both democrats and republican like most of the American citizenry regardless of whether they’re liberal or conservative agree with the Obama administration when it comes to the system being broken and in need of fixing. The only things either group has left to argue are what kind of reform, how much reform and the cost of those reforms.
It seems that Americans citizen are being asked to choose between full blown socialism—liberalism and socialism light—conservatism. Which wing of our socialist party in Washington D.C (liberal or conservative) has the right idea when it comes to fixing what might not be broke our American medical system?
It ain’t broke, is it? Ask yourselves, just because liberal and conservative leadership agree that 47 million Americans are either under insured or uninsured does that really mean that the American medical system is broken an in need of fixing? Are we to believe that just because the cost of medicine is rising that the system is failing? Is it possible that medical cost like the cost of any thing else in high demand and/or short supply should naturally go up in cost? Ask yourselves, if a commodity goes up in price does that mean it production system is broken? Is it plausible that the 47 million of under insured and uninsured along with the rapid rise of health care—affordability might be a sign of a healthy medical system? Maybe the old adage, “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.’ Says it all?

Title II Section 201 Paragraph (e) “1964”

The civil rights war against our unalienable rights.
One splash after another, waves of water washed up over the edge of the pool carrying with them the last of the white children. “What are they, blacks doing here?” “I don’t know.” “Me neither.” “I thought this was a private club.” “This isn’t what I paid money for.” “ I know.”
Underneath the storm clouds of their antipathy sat an elf of a boy drenched with fear, shaking as though the water on his midnight skin were ice cold. Little Johnny White had heard it all. His small stature had stealth his presence, but it couldn’t shield him from their hostility. He over-hastily ran from the edge of the pool for the safe haven of Sister Bianco’s mid drift. He wrapped his arms around her like a bear cub clinging to the belly fat of its mother.
“I heard them.” “Heard them what?” she replied. “ I heard them saying things about us.” “About who? She said pulling at him in order to see his buried face. “ I heard them talking about us being black, that we shouldn’t be here.” “What? What’d you say?” It wasn’t that she didn’t hear him, she did, but she needed to share her shock with him branding his soul with a tattoo that read “Always Remember that White folk are Racist.”. “They said blacks shouldn’t be here, and they told the white kids to get out of pool when we got in.” He went on.
“We’ll see about that.” She said. And with that she began her “We shall over come,” march . Her locks swishing back and forth against the round of her cheeks, she stomped her way to the club office pulling Johnny along behind her at a skipping pace. “We’ll just see about this.” She kept repeating to herself and little Johnny.
The frail frame blonde sitting behind the receptionist desk sprang to her feet at the thrust of frustration that had just forced it way through the door an into her office. “I need to see the president or someone?” Bianco shouted. “May I ask what this is about?” “ Maybe I can help you?” The receptionist ask, looking up over the rim of her glasses. “This ain’t none of your business, I wana see someone in charge.” Bianco jolted back at her.
“ Ms. Edsle, what in the hell is going on out here? “ What is all the commotion?” He said ( the club president) as he entered the receptionist area from the crack of his office door. Seeing Sister Bianco and little Johnny standing there, his expression melted from battleship ready into a Hawaiian aloha.
“Wellll. Hello, how are you? What can I do for you?” And with that, Sister Bianco lit into him. “ We paid to swim here and now those white folk say that we shouldn’t be here and have pulled their kids out of the pool whenever our children…” “That’s discrimination, I want something done.” “Mam, I assure you that if we were prejudice towards minorities, we would never have extended the reduced memberships to you and the children.” “Mam, if you would give me the chance to go and find out just what the problem is? I’m sure it can be worked out.”

And with a smile Mr. Dudley flipped the last lock of hair from his balding head that had laced its way over the rim of his glasses and fled the fires of righteous indignation now ignited in the hearts and minds of Sister Bianco and little Johnny White.
His lanky strides hurried him towards the dark clouds opposition clustered at the far end of the pool.
“Mrs. Black, what seems to be the problem with those children swimming here?” “ Why have you all pulled your kids from the pool?” “Honestly Dudley, you know I have nothing against any one but this is a private club, members only.” She replied. “It’s over crowded and it’s affecting… well our children are just not used to the inner city kids.” While she was speaking a chorus of sympathizers rose up behind her. “We weren’t made aware of this” “ Ya, this isn’t right.” “If they don’t go we will.” It was the voices of others standing there. “But ladies, there must be something we can do, isn’t there?” Their silent arm crossing along with their demanding stares said it all. “ I understand fully ladies, let me see what I can do?” And with that, Mr. Dudley head back to his office, where he had left smoldering– in the lap of his receptionist– the charcoals righteous indignation. .
“Sister Bianco would you accompany me to my office, Ms. Edsle can keep Johnny company while we talk?”
“First of all, thank you for bringing a thing like this to my attention.” “However, we are a private organization and it is my duty to see that long standing club members and their families are happy.” “That said, it has come to my attention that we underestimated the impact of this many new children to the pools’ capacity. “ “This has drastically changed the complexion and atmosphere of the club.” “While we regret this unfortunate incident, we believe that real equality—for all of us, you included, rest on the preservation of our most sacred right—the unalienable right to private property.” “ That the exercise of discrimination is inherent in the concept of private and must not be abridged.”
We-the permanent members of this here swim club- whole heartedly believe there is no place for racism and discrimination, nonetheless, we do understand how our decision in this matter might be misconstrued as such, but let me assure you and the children that sometimes things are not quite what they might seem to be.”
“What? What’d you just SAY?”

The Power of Passion

The Power of Passion

Do we or do we not possess free will? The recent actions of the governor of South Carolina, Governor Sanford, have got be the best example in recent memory in support of the latter, that we do not have free will. Here is a man; a man of great prominence in society; a man who supposedly possessed free will; a man who woke up one morning to cast reason to the wind with reckless abandoned. He abandoned his wife, his kids and the governorship of South Carolina. And to make matters worse, he lied to his staff about his whereabouts, in order to hide his extra martial affair.
Is he responsible for these choices? If free will has anything to say about it, he is responsible. Like a savior, free will sets, us morally above all of earthly creation but a little lower than the angels. When it comes to the existence of free will, “We walk not by sight but by faith.” We are the blind self appointed ministers of free will, the self appointed judges and jurist of whether a man, this man, Governor Sanford should be held responsible for his choices and actions. An in this case, it is our condemnation that the Governor has received.
However, is our judgment just? Did he exercise free will? Is he truly responsible for his actions? Alternatively, could it be said that, he is just another victim of a grotesque myth of the mind that we call free will? A myth that says his will, at times, is not subject to cause and effect that he can act without being acted upon. Is it this that makes him responsible? Could this be why most of us find actions like those of Governor Sanford’s reprehensible?
Perhaps it’s not that at all. Maybe our moral contempt is not directed as much towards the actions of, Governor Sanford, but for what they reveal about us. At times, each of us has made a choice or taken an action and lived to regret it. Scratching our head as we looked back over the incident, we asked ourselves, what were we thinking? What were we seeking in our question but the motive, the reason for our action, the cause? Don’t we all, from time to time, get asked or ask ourselves what made (caused) us to say or think this or that; To do this or that? Of course we have.
What causes us to take an action or better said react in some way to an entity, event or circumstance is not always the self evident. At other times, it is blatantly apparent. Nevertheless, known or unknown to us some entity, event, or circumstance has acted upon us from within or without impacting our senses, that in turn influences the composition of our brain. Our brains in turn react and fill our mind with a host of thoughts and emotions.
Alzheimer’s disease, the slow continuous deterioration of the brain with its corresponding degenerative effect upon the thoughts of its victims demonstrates that the mental operations of man, his thoughts, are not super ordinate but subordinate to that of his body brain), they are not self caused.
“Never a thought has come or gone without the use of a brain.”
Anywhere a man thinks himself to have made a choice about something, he needs only to ask himself one question. What was the last thing to pass through his mind prior to making that choice or taking that action? Man does not reason to his choices, he feels them. They are the automated emotional reactions of his brain. Only afterwards, looking backwards, does he grapple with the cast aside ruins of his reason and the ineptitude of his free will to counter his passions.
And it was the similar with the cheating heart of Governor Sanford. Despite the Governor’s reasoned conviction to his religious moral code, it was no match for the call of Mother Nature upon his soul. The irresistible sensuality of an Argentinean angel, her touch, her smile, her voice, her smell, the curve of her hips, her lips, impacted his senses in such a way that the dike of his reason (his religious moral code) broke and gave way to the rushing waters of passion. The Passion of nature filled his heart with emotion–he had to feel; it filled his mind with thoughts–he had to think. It filled his life with actions– he had to take. With reckless abandon, he threw caution to the wind and rushed to her bedside.
He did not know at the time, and he may not know it now, but he did not choose to forsake the covenant of his marital bed. It was stripped from him by his jeans (genes). Like a man in a car that is sliding on black ice, the intent of his will and those of his actions were powerless against the causal dictates of Mother Nature. Mother Nature blinded him with passion causing him to forsake all that seemed to matter in his life (his marriage, his kids, his political office).
It must surely be a mistake to think that free will and responsibility could trump the absolute rule of Mother Nature’s causal determinacy (universal cause and effect). On the surface, it may appear that the Governor acted with the winds of free will at his back. However, might it have been that nature acted first sending an Argentinean angel into such a prominent life to remind us all of that which her prophet Sir Francis Bacon first admonished us?
“Nature to be commanded must first be obeyed.”

Dancing with BO Barack Obama and the State of the black union

SAT test measure of rich kids intelligence not poor blacks according to august luminaries at the SotBU

Panelists at the State of the black union symposium argued that SAT test were bias in favor of the wealthy. The bias is not emanating from the test content but from the wealth held by the  parents . It is their wealth or their lack of wealth that determines where their sons or daughters will score on the exam according to the panelists.

“Talent is equally distributed among all people.” said one panelist

Those attending the symposium were told SAT test scores do not measure intelligence but the wealth accumulation of the parent. This explains why Black test taker score considerably lower on these exams than whites, Asians, and Hispanics.

Asian on average score in the 1600 percentile, whites in the 1500 percentile and Latinos in the 1300 percentile. Blacks on the other hand score on average in the 1200 percentile.

“ Read Scott Page’s book “ complex systems.” said a panelist

 A particular panelist suggested  as a non bias replacement for the SAT , the complex system. This system  measures intelligence by inclusion. This approach promotes intellectual diversity.  A diversity that takes the bad with good in that it look upon test score as just different  points of view. The  panel believes this system  will provide  employers with a  richer source of intellect,  diverse and free from the problematic SAT.
