AARP sells out Senior Citizens

reprinted from AmericanFamilyAssociation

-------------------------------
The AARP claims to be all about representing the interests of seniors, but when it comes to health care reform, they are selling seniors down the river to line their own pockets.
The AARP has endorsed the gargantuan PelosiCare bill that just passed the House, despite the fact the bill proposes more than $400 billion in cuts to Medicare, which is certain to lead to rationing, inferior care and "death panels" for vulnerable senior citizens.
Why? As they say, follow the money. PelosiCare will also cut Medicare Advantage by $170 billion. Medicare Advantage allows seniors to purchase private insurance with their Medicare payments, but these cuts will drive many of these seniors into inferior Medigap plans.
AARP has a vested interest in seniors being driven out of Medicare Advantage into Medigap plans because AARP makes a fortune in royalty fees from Medigap plans. More than one-half of its $1.1 billion budget comes from such royalty fees, and Medigap plans make up the biggest share of this royalty revenue by far.
The more seniors are forced out of Medicare Advantage into Medigap plans, the more money AARP makes. In other words, under PelosiCare, seniors lose but AARP wins - big time.

Popular vote still shows Americans don't approve sodomite marriages.

PORTLAND, Maine- Voters in Maine have rejected an effort by lawmakers there to impose homosexual "marriage" in that state.

Gay marriage has now lost in every single state -- 31 in all -- in which it has been put to a popular vote. Gay-rights activists had hoped to buck that trend in Maine -- known for its liberal-minded electorate -- and mounted an energetic, well-financed campaign. With 87 percent of the precincts reporting, proponents of traditional marriage had 53 percent of the votes.

"The institution of marriage has been preserved in Maine and across the nation," declared Frank Schubert, chief organizer for the winning side.

Read Renewed momentum for federal marriage amendment?
Gay-marriage supporters held out hope that the tide would shift before conceding defeat at 2:40 a.m. in a statement that insisted they weren't going away. "We're in this for the long haul. For next week, and next month, and next year -- until all Maine families are treated equally. Because in the end, this has always been about love and family and that will always be something worth fighting for," said Jesse Connolly, manager of the pro-gay marriage campaign.At issue was a law passed by the Maine Legislature last spring that would have legalized same-sex marriage. The law was put on hold after conservatives launched a petition drive to repeal it in a referendum.The outcome Tuesday marked the first time voters had rejected a gay-marriage law enacted by a legislature. When Californians put a stop to same-sex marriage a year ago, it was in response to a court ruling, not legislation.Five other states have legalized gay marriage -- starting with Massachusetts in 2004, and followed by Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Iowa -- but all did so through legislation or court rulings, not by popular vote. In contrast, constitutional amendments banning gay marriage have been approved in all 30 states where they have been on the ballot.The defeat left some gay-marriage supporters bitter. "Our relationship is between us," said Carla Hopkins, 38, of Mount Vernon, with partner Victoria Eleftherio, 38, sitting on her lap outside a hotel ballroom where gay marriage supporters had been hoping for a victory party. "How does that affect anybody else? It's a personal thing."The contest had been viewed by both sides as certain to have national repercussions. Backers of traditional marriage desperately wanted to keep their winning streak alive, while gay-rights activists sought to blunt the argument that gay marriage was being foisted on the country by courts and lawmakers over the will of the people.Had Maine's law been upheld, the result would probably have energized efforts to get another vote on gay marriage in California, and given a boost to gay-marriage bills in New York and New Jersey.Earlier Tuesday, before vote-counting began, marriage traditionalist Chuck Schott of Portland warned that Maine "will have its place in infamy" if the gay-rights side won.Another Portland resident, Sarah Holman said she was "very torn" but decided -- despite her conservative upbringing -- to vote in favor of letting gays marry. "They love and they have the right to love. And we can't tell somebody how to love," said Holman, 26.In addition to reaching out to young people who flocked to the polls for President Barack Obama a year ago, gay-marriage defenders tried to appeal to Maine voters' pronounced independent streak and live-and-let-live attitude.The other side based many of its campaign ads on claims -- disputed by state officials -- that the new law would mean "homosexual marriage" would be taught in public schools.Both sides in Maine drew volunteers and contributions from out of state, but the money edge went to the campaign in defense of gay marriage, Protect Maine Equality. It raised $4 million, compared with $2.5 million for Stand for Marriage Maine.

Illegal Alien Halloween Custom Uproar

LOS ANGELES-- An immigrant rights group has asked Target stores to stop selling an illegal alien costume they describe as "offensive" to immigrants and "ignorant."The costume, sold on Target's web site, features a mask of an extraterrestrial being, wearing an orange jumpsuit with "illegal Alien" written on it, and a "green card" accessory. Angelica Salas, executive director of the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles, says she emailed Target Headquarters on Friday, calling the costume "distasteful, mean-spirited, and ignorant of social stigmas and current debate on immigration reform." Many Target customers have given the costume the lowest product rating possible on the site-- 1 of 5 stars-- and have expressed their distaste in the "guest review" section." The costume is a sick sign of the times we are living in in this country where those who are not 'people like us' might as well be from another planet and are considered less than human. I am surprised Target would promote such a mentality," one customer wrote on the website. Target spokesman Joshua Thomas says the company will be removing the costume from the site after receiving several complaints. According to Thomas, the store never intended to sell the outfit and only included it in its online Halloween offerings by mistake. Some customers say they will refuse to shop at Target Stores until the costume is removed from the site and an apology is issued. Others call the costume "funny" and say the offended parties should "lighten up.""This has nothing to do with immigrants," another customer wrote, "Only the illegal criminals from Mars that entered the US without doing it the correct way." Target started getting complaints Thursday afternoon, Thomas said, but the costume was still online Friday evening. Target's website is managed by Amazon.com, and Thomas said it could take as long as 48 hours to take it down. It's unbelievable that we are actually living in a time when we should think it is not a big deal that people are crossing our American borders and breaking the law when they set foot in our land without permission, and we are not supposed to think it is not a big deal.

Louisiana Justice of the Peace refuses to marry interracial couple

It's amazing how quickly the interracial, one-world, humanist crowd gets in an uproar when a white person has the back bone to stand on a principle. That is what has happened in Louisiana. Both Louisiana's governor and a U.S. senator joined Friday in calling for the ouster of a local official who refused to marry an interracial couple, saying his actions clearly broke the law as reported by the Associated Press.

Keith Bardwell, a white justice of the peace in Tangipahoa Parish in the southeastern part of the state, refused to issue a marriage license earlier this month to Beth Humphrey, who is white, and Terence McKay, who is black. His refusal has prompted calls for an investigation or resignation from civil and constitutional rights groups and the state's Legislative Black Caucus.
Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal said in a statement a nine-member commission that reviews lawyers and judges in the state should investigate. "Disciplinary action should be taken immediately — including the revoking of his license," Jindal said.

Bardwell did not return calls left on his answering machine Friday. Bardwell has said he always asks if a couple is interracial and, if they are, refers them to another justice of the peace. Bardwell said no one had complained in the past and he doesn't marry the couples because he's worried about their children's futures. Now, that shouldn't be the reason why the Bardwell should not issue a marriage license. The reason is this: First, it's scripturally not biblical. The Bible clearly outlaws interracial marriages. Second, there is a long history of the United States forbidding interracial marriages. Since the founding of our Republic until the Supreme Court outlawed states forbid interracial marriages, the People did not believe it, and it was a state issue. However, the liberal 9 member U.S. Supreme Court under the Loving ruling outlawed states from prohibiting interracial marriages. Again, this shows how the U.S. Supreme Court forced its will on the People.

Humphrey and McKay were eventually married by another justice of the peace, but are now looking into legal action against Bardwell. Humphrey said she called Bardwell on Oct. 6 to ask about a marriage license. She said Bardwell's wife told her that Bardwell would not sign marriage licenses for interracial couples. Bardwell maintains he can recuse himself from marrying people. Quigley disagreed. "A justice of the peace is legally obligated to serve the public, all of the public," Quigley said. "Racial discrimination has been a violation of Louisiana and U.S. law for decades. No public official has the right to pick and choose which laws they are going to follow."

However, a public official is an elected official and that public official has the freedom to represent his constituents and has the freedom of speech. We once had a Republic when elected officials had to only to answer to the People, not "judiciary committess or associations" or the PC establishment. Bardwell, a Republican, has served as justice of peace for 34 years. He said he has run without opposition each time, but had decided earlier not to run again. His current term expires Dec. 31, 2014

Governor Arnold Schwarzenneger signs bill honoring Sodomite "Harvey Milk Day"

According to OneNewsNow.com, "The chairman of the Orange County (California) Board of Education says she is "appalled" that Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is asking schools to set aside a day to honor a controversial homosexual activist."

It's very unfortunate that Schwarzenegger signed a bill earlier this week creating an annual day of recognition for Sodomite Harvey Milk. The designation of each May 22 as "Harvey Milk Day" encourages schools around the state to commemorate the murdered homosexual politician. (See earlier story) Last month, the Orange County Board of Education voted unanimously (5-0) to oppose the creation of Harvey Milk Day. Dr. Alexandria Coronado, chairman of that board, says she is "absolutely furious" that the homosexual community is claiming that passage of the Harvey Milk bill is a civil rights victory. This is just another showing of how our politicians are betraying our founding forefathers and our White Christian Heritage. Many think that Governor Schwarzenegger fights for conservative principles because he is a Republican. Republican and Democrat politicians are betraying our country. The Governor might be a Republican, but he is not one that stands up for our children, our heritage, and for a Godly Government. He is one that stands for the perverted lifestyle of sodomy, and who knows what else. But what do you really expect, he is married to Maria Shriver, a Kennedy. Enough said.

Jason Robb receives nobel peace prize-oh, just kidding-but it could have happened

Thank you for nominating me for the Nobel Peace Prize. I am deeply humbled and honored for being nominated this special award. I know there were many that were nominated. But I feel honored that that the Nobel Peace Prize committee thought enough of me to have nominated me. I too, like president Barack Hussein Obama, share the same qualifications. We both believe in peace. And, umm, we both believe in peace. OH, I already said that. Well, I'm sure I'll think of something later. Anyway, I truly am honored. I am very moved and choked up as Barack Hussein Obama as shown in his picture to the right. But I guess I have to get to reality. As you can tell, I really didn't get nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. And no, I didn't win it. But I really don't understand why. I believe in peace. But I guess that is where it ends. Of course, I know why Barack Hussein Obama won. He was nominated by the five-member committee elected by the Norwegian Parliament. Like the Parliament, the panel has a leftist slant, with three members elected by left-of-center parties and two right-of-center members. Jagland, one of the committe memebers, said the decision to honor Obama was unanimous. But I beleive in peace. I believe in White Nationalism. That our race is our nation and our nation is our race. As our White Race is less than 10 percent of the world population, our race is quickly being depleted, and actually should be put on the endanger species list. Our White children will not have the same culture and heritage that America and all of our White European countries were built on, but are being raised in a multi-culturalist society where they are being taught to be asham of their race and culture. Barack Hussein Obama is appointing homosexuals to his staff, and appointing open communists to his staff, and actually have appointed Kevin Jennings, the Assistant Deputy Secretary of the Office of Safe and Drug Free Schools at the U.S. Department of Education that have connections to the NAMBLA (National American Man Boy Love Association) organization.

As I said, I believe in Peace. I believe our White people should be able to peacefully protect their culture, should peacefully protect their heritage, and peacefully protect their race; and our people should be able to pass the love of their race and heritage to their children. But unfortunately, that is not peace to those such as Barack Hussein Obama and the other left wing extremists who wants to literally destroy our people, and destroy any sense of love to our children. But what do you expect. The left wing nobel peace prize committee members are going to give the prize to someone of their own. Do you really expect it would be any other.

Illegals are "pawns" for socialist agenda

As reported by OneNewsNow.com, "A conservative commentator and author says a recent Senate committee vote "puts the lie to" President Obama's and Democrats' assertion that illegal aliens won't be eligible for coverage under their healthcare plan.

In his speech to Congress last month, President Obama said claims that his healthcare plan would allow coverage to illegal immigrants and taxpayer-funded abortions were "false" and a "misunderstanding" perpetuated by his opponents. However, in the Senate Finance Committee Wednesday -- by near party-line votes -- Democrats rejected separate amendments that would have prohibited federal funding of abortion and required people to prove their identity with photo identification when signing up for health insurance or tax credits under healthcare reform. Phil Kent, national spokesman for Americans for Immigration Control, calls Democrats' vote against the ID requirement "shocking" and a move that defied common sense. "It shows again that the Democrats are not being honest with the American people," Kent asserts.

"Furthermore, it shows the disconnect between these Democrats and what polls show. "Polls show consistently that 90 percent of the American people -- Democrat, Republican, liberal, conservative, black, white, Anglo, Hispanic -- oppose illegal immigration and oppose healthcare benefits for illegal immigrants." Kent believes the political left wants to "coddle" illegal aliens in order to use them as a pawn to achieve their socialist agenda. "They see them as the final way to change America, to turn it into a socialist country," he states. "They want these people getting services, they want them on a path to citizenship, they want them voting." According to Kent, illegal immigrants -- in the main -- are part of an "underclass." "They make less than $10,000 a year, they have less than an eighth-grade education, [and] they can be swayed by every left-wing demagogue that comes down the pike with any promise whatsoever," he says. "[And] they will be outvoting middle America."
