Why Tea Party wants all or nothing

I have always wondered why people who say that they love this country would not do all that they could to keep up the recovery whether it is slow or not.  They said that they wanted politicians who would not be a pawn to anyone.  I believe that the mission is clearer now than it has been in the past.  The Tea Party wants all or nothing because they see a government shutdown as another way to insure that Barack Obama does not get a second term.  They have also seen how this president has answered his campaign promises and even though some are not complete, they still se it as his supporters getting everything they wanted.  They are under the impression that the shutdown would have a worse effect on the president than it will be on those Republicans on the ballots.  It is going to be curious to see if any Republican gets a primary challenger when we get closer to the 2012 election.  If you look over the field of potential Republican nominees for president, the Tea Party is looking to try and bring down this president because of the slim pickings of their candidates so anything that they can or don’t do to make that happen is the game plan.  The problem is that they are only 23% of the Republican base.

I would be curios to know if any of those in the Tea Parties are actually for collective bargaining denial, abortion even in the case of rape or incest and really do want to privatize Medicare, abolish Medicaid, take away Pell grants and keep the Bush tax cuts for the wealth.   If nothing else this minority of Republicans having such a hold on those in Washington has awaken those independents and democrats who stayed home during the midterm, teaching them that we all must stay visible in this game at all times.

Movie Review-Harlan Coben's Shelter

  The movie Shelter is based on the bestselling series by Harlan Coben, it follows the story of Mickey Bolitar (Jaden Michael) after the death of his father leads him to start a new life in suburban New Jersey. When another new student disappears, Mickey finds himself tangled in a web of secrets. With the help of two new friends, Spoon (Adrian Greensmith) and Ema (Abigale Corrigan), they reveal a dark underground that may hold the answers to decades of disappearances. Keeping me totally engrossed from the first episode to the last was not really the storyline or the actions and dramas, it was how awesomely those actors and actresses played their roles.   It seemed so effortless, watching them, that it was easy to forget it was a movie/series. I could not control my anxiousness to start the next episode.   Not many movies can make me feel the same emotions that the players were supposed to feeling but man, this was one and that journey this series took me on was one that I must go on

The Determination of History to Repeat Itself is Due to our Cowardice to Stop It

  America has always been the land of opportunity however we have become lax in our efforts to ensure that this right is made available for all of us to achieve and enjoy.   Far too often, those who see themselves in a position of authority or great wealth begin to confuse themselves with an idea that since you may be thought of as successful, means your now have the power and authority to dictate to everyone else. This lying power makes those allowed to flex it feel bigger and better than they really are.   It gives them a false sense of righteousness and security over all people, places, and things which must be corrected before we completely lose our very humanity. Every last one of us knows this is wrong but history has allowed these individuals to exercise this false position of power without consequences and punishment. Every one of us is guilty of sitting on our hands and waiting on someone else to save us instead of finding our own intestinal fortitude to save ourselves.   We

The Sum Total of all our Experiences and our Reactions to Them By Dr. Ronnie Manns, NP, Psy,D., FAIHCP

  At the Start In the second term of conception, when the fetus begins to form, so does parts of the brain.   The parts of the brain that begin to form contain only one cognitive component which is called the Mix-Match Negative (MMN).   This portion has two major functions, the first is to instruct that body when it is time to form the different parts of the fetus body and organs, the second, and one which will present more influence than any other aspect of our existence is designed to record every event that happens to us and our reactions to them. All the information created and recorded by the MMN is sent to the temporal lobe to be housed and disseminated when necessary.   These recordings begin to establish your normal, the safe harbor you will run to every time something like a past event or even similar to it happens because it is the only defense you have and the safest place to be. How this works is based on the example of being born.   For nine (9) months we are safe,
