Fox News and the New GOP get their Talking Points from MSNBC

At first I did not wish to see something that has occurred to me as being so obvious.  Fox News and the new GOP do get their talking points from MSNBC.  Media had me believing at first that GOP talking points were created by the Heritage Foundation, Howard Lutz or other Koch Brothers financially backed groups but the more and more I listen to the points presented by Fox News host and the unbridled lies being told by GOP lawmakers and newsmakers on MSNBC as well as many of the MSNBC constant guests, I’m beginning to see a pattern emerge.

In an effort not to appear so slanted toward this administration as it is perceived that Fox News is slanted against this administration, MSNBC has allowed opposition and sometimes favored commentators to speak on matters without the fear of being challenged.  It has become a common occurrence not to have to research any subject because as long as you are not going to be challenged on anything you say, the truth is often seen as purely a hindrance.

Classic example is the Affordable Care Act, Obamacare or any other label you wish to attach to it.  Anyone who pays just a little bit of attention knows in their hearts that this law, the ACA will save millions of Americans not only from bankruptcy but from dying early but this is often overshadowed by a constant reminder of what is wrong and very little if anything about what is right.  Today the fit being thrown is about what happens next since the website is far better now than it was in the beginning.  Now that this is corrected, focus is now on the hundreds of problems that are being reported now from information not getting to the insurance companies to this being a fake-out by the Obama Administration.  It’s a sad thing but listens to any cable news channel and tell me if you hear any difference.

What is being widely missed by all concerned is that those who favor ridding this world of abortion should be up in arms at the fact that not even Medicare has not been expanded in all States, why you ask, because if your organization prides itself of the “sanctity of life” it should be the sanctity of all lives not just the unborn.  So what about the hundreds and thousands of seniors who, without  this law will die from disease that goes untreated and undiscovered because they cannot afford preventive care.  What about the poor and less fortunate who cannot afford to see a doctor, does their life mean nothing to a group who champions the “sanctity of life”?  Only God really knows.


How about those who say that the GOP will face possible loss of leadership in Washington if they do not come to the bargaining table in good faith and do something for those who elected them to fix the problems this nation faces.  There is no pressure there because without those who vote growing a pair and making it a major sin to go to Washington and do nothing.  These are the controllers of the destiny of the New GOP, not those with big pockets as media would like to get us to believe.  Those who vote hold the power and as long as they are convinced by money managers and media that their votes really don’t count.  The status quo stays the same.  Already we know that those suffering most are not the people that politicians see as important and as long as they are allowed to flaunt their superiority over those with a smaller voice, suffering will continue.  Bottom line I got three words for you; GET A CLUE.

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,
