“The Constitution is not an instrument for the government to
restrain the people, it is an instrument for the people to restrain the
government - lest it come to dominate our lives and interests.”

Keep loosing internet, satellite, and cell signal.. I can only hope this will post and stay.. hehehe
gggrrrr ~   and it is only a small yet consistent rain outside, I can only imagine if it was severe out there now.. how crazy it would be. Very frustrating indeed !
But ya know, if I had not wanted to get on anything today... everything would be running high speed top notch. Go figure ! Right?
To all those in harms way due to the latest storm systems... Thinking of  you all.. God Bless !!
 
yum..... uummmmm ( pleasant sigh*)
Apple Orchard and fresh rain smell. Love it . Helping me relax. Taking away that smell of sickness.
Candles have been my serenity lately .
 
Medical update:
 
find myself getting more frustrated as my issues and symptoms get worse. I have caught more bugs on my outings' the other day to grocery store, plus I realized .. after scaring  the shit out of myself, and crying... that my driving days now are numbered. Scared myself to death.
I try to stay local when I drive and I wait til  I know I can drive.. but the times in between good and bad moments are speeding up.
Remission is not in the headlights currently and as slow as my docs are moving with things.. I feel I might not make it to getting treatments.
Loosing vision, sense of smell, taste, direction, memory, and being able to function... are coming faster and staying longer..  Every bone, muscle, joint, etc in my body hurts so bad...
Cant sleep, cant eat, cant function a lot of the time. My TIA's are also coming more frequent and I worry sometimes a big stroke is not far away.
 
Not sad anymore,, not scared.. ( only when  I drive), just frustrated and angry now. I am quickly loosing control over my life and my daily living ! That pisses me off.
I have come to see how for so many years I took for granted being able to take a shower, being able to hold a book and read or get on computer for a few minutes , being able to walk up the street, and being able to jump in the car and enjoy a drive or an activity !!!
 
I am working hard to stay away from any small viruses and infections.. I already depend on so many meds a day just to get through.. hate catching stuff if the wind blows past me.. I am almost a shut in now, because I have no choice.. and even that isn't a sure thing. My daughter is out and about everyday and she brings stuff home... so really I am fighting a loosing battle. I just try to stay clean, and keep stuff as clean as possible, and just try to avoid certain things as much as possible. Hate it ~ Just hate it !!!!
 
I have docs everyday next  2weeks to include more testing. I have Evoked Potential testing, more scans , and more everything.. Its just so much.. the meds, the appointments, the testing ,, hell everything !!! and the fact that very soon possibly I will have to depend on others to help me drive, take meds, do everything...
I can only hope that treatment can start soon.. after all the stuff I have in the next 2 weeks would be super great. The longer it takes, the more I am losing valuable time.
SO much more to share, so much more going on.. but I am going to stop here... I would not wish what I am going through on anyone.. even Obama... (LMAO)
 
Have a super awesome weekend everyone..
 
I was going to ramble about other stuff, but I am running out of steam.. I need to get outta here..
xoxoxooxoxox
 
 
 
 



Oh My GOD..... He did create a job... LOL
I haven't seen Obama look this uncomfortable and awkward and dopey since he broke down and wore an American flag pin on his lapel, something he insisted was totally not his style.



He hates that hat. You can tell. Cowboy Obama. He's no Sheriff David Clarke when it comes to successfully pulling off the look.

Obama's expression is priceless. I'm sure he's thinking that this image is going to be on
Drudge, and he dreads it. He knows photos of him looking silly in the cowboy hat will be all over the Internet.

It's interesting. For someone supposedly so cool Obama looks embarrassed frequentlty. If one is truly cool, one doesn't care about what anyone thinks. He's very self-conscious, not a trait of a cool person. Obama does not look at all comfortable in his own skin.

Maybe that's why Obama prefers to campaign rather than be a leader, pretending as if he's not president to avoid accountability.

I suppose the cowboy hat is Bush's fault.

Soon after the Obama Regime went into overdrive to publicize having finally given the green light to the SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden, 17 SEALs were killed along with 13 other troops when a US helicopter was shot down in Afghanistan under questionable circumstances. Try not to smash your computer screen when you read what our Islamophile rulers permitted to happen at their funeral service:
Today three families of Navy SEAL Team VI special forces servicemen, along with one family of an Army National Guardsman, appeared at a press conference to disclose never before revealed information about how and why their sons along with 26 others died in a fatal helicopter crash in Afghanistan on August 6, 2011. …
At the press conference today the families released video on how military brass, while prohibiting any mention of a Judeo-Christian God, invited a Muslim cleric to the funeral for the fallen Navy SEAL Team VI heroes. This cleric disparaged in Arabic the memory of these servicemen by damning them as infidels to Allah.
This video from today’s press conference includes footage of the funeral services at Bagram Air Force Base:



A transcript of the Muslim curse the heroes were granted instead of a Christian blessing:
Amen. I shelter in Allah from the devil who has been cast with stones.
In the name of Allah the merciful forgiver.
The companions of “THE FIRE”
(The sinners and infidels who are fodder for the hell fire)
ARE NOT EQUAL WITH the companions of heaven.
The companions of heaven (Muslims) are the WINNERS.
Had he sent this Koran to the mountain, you would have seen the mountain prostrated in fear of Allah.
(Mocking the GOD of Moses)
Such examples are what we present to the people, so that they would think.
(repent and convert to Islam)
Blessings are to your God (Allah) the God of glory and what they describe.
And peace be upon the messengers (prophets) and thanks be to Allah the lord of both universes (mankind and Jinn).
At what point do we decide we have had enough?
Pat Smith, mother of Benghazi 9/11/12 terrorist attack victim Sean Smith, reacted to the congressional hearing held on Wednesday.

From Mediaite:

When asked if she got the answers she was looking for out of Wednesday’s congressional hearings, Smith curtly replied “no.”

“I got a lot of answers, but not the ones that I really wanted,” Smith replied. “I want to know why there was no security there and the security that was there got pulled, and who is the one who told the military to stand down, basically.”



Transcript
PAT SMITH: Our government does not care about us. They don't care about us at all. They just care about saving their own butts and covering their souls, or whatever it is.

JAKE TAPPER: [Pause] I wish you had gotten answers.

SMITH: Oh, so do I. I begged for answers. When I was there at the casket ceremony, Obama and Hillary and Biden and Panetta and several more said that they would check into it and let me know. Not one of them has called me. None. They don't care. I'm not important to them. There's other people that are important to them - themselves, pretty much.

TAPPER: Well, you're important to us here, and you're important to a lot of people out there.

SMITH: That's why I'm here.

TAPPER: We thank you for coming and we hope you get those answers.
Obama doesn't call Pat Smith, but he calls Sandra Fluke. He calls Jason Collins. He cares about them, but he doesn't care about the mother of a U.S. Foreign Service Information Officer killed in an attack on our consulate. What is wrong the guy?

Obama is a disgrace. He's a terrible president.

Hillary Clinton is a disgrace. She was a terrible secretary of state. She'd be a terrible president.

Jays new joke....

JAY LENO: The White House has a new slogan about Benghazi - 'Hope and change the subject.'
The RNC put it together to run in mid-October. Every word of it is what has turned out to be totally true about Barack Obama being asleep at the wheel (maybe literally) on Benghazi. No one knows where Obama was all through the night as Americans fought for their lives alone, and four of them died in Benghazi on September 11, 2012. Obama was briefed about 5 PM that an attack was underway, and then he disappeared and never returned – never even called back to check on things.

Politico

Obama will speak Friday about the Affordable Care Act’s effects “on the health, lives and pocketbooks of women and their families,” the White House said in his schedule.
Timed to coincide with Mother’s Day, which is on Sunday, the event comes also comes as House Republicans plan to vote next week on a bill to repeal the health care law.
The audience for the 2:40 p.m. event will include represenatives from women’s groups, including Planned Parenthood.
The event comes as some Democrats have voiced concerns that the implementation will be messy and problematic, a notion that Obama has challenged. “I think that any time you’re implementing something big, there’s going to be people who are nervous and anxious about is it going to get done, until it’s actually done,” he told reporters last week. “We’ve got a great team in place. We are pushing very hard to make sure that we’re hitting all the deadlines and the benchmarks.”
Obama to High School Kids “I’m Going to Need Your Help to Lean on Elected Representatives”
Barack Obama held a campaign stop at Manor Technical High School in Austin, Texas yesterday.
He used the high school kids as props for his speech.
Obama also told the high schoolers that he will need their help to push his agenda.
“Every once in a while I’m going to need your help to lean on your elected representatives…”

Here’s the transcript via the White House website:
Now, there are three things that we’ve got to focus on to create more jobs and opportunity for the middle class. First of all, we’ve got to make America a magnet for good jobs. Second, we’ve got to help people earn the education and develop the skills they need to do those jobs. And number three, we’ve got to make sure that people who are working hard are able to achieve a decent living. (Applause.) All right? That’s what we’ve got to focus on.
And I’ve sent Congress proposals on a whole range of ideas that will help in these three areas: creating jobs, helping families stay in their homes, lifting wages, helping more young people get a good education and afford college. But some of them have been blocked in Congress for, frankly, political reasons. And I’m going to keep on trying. I’m an optimistic guy, so I’m just going to keep on talking to members of Congress, because I believe that America does best when we work together. (Applause.) I believe that.
Every once in a while I’m going to need your help to lean on your elected representatives and say, hey, let’s do something about this; even if don’t like it politically, if it’s a good idea, let’s go ahead and support it.
So sometimes I’m going to need constituents to pressure their members of Congress to do the right thing.
But where I can, I’m just going to go ahead and take action on my own, including some executive actions that I’m taking today that I’m convinced will spur innovation and help businesses create more jobs.
Operation Smear Benghazi Whistleblowers
by Michelle Malkin

It’s on. As the White House grapples with a growing backlash over its Libya lies and lapses, President Obama’s apologists are gearing up for battle. Put on your hip-waders. Grab those tar buckets. Get ready for Operation Smear Benghazi Whistleblowers.
Capitol Hill hearings this Wednesday on the deadly 9/11 consulate attack by jihadists will feature three compelling witnesses, all State Department veterans: Gregory N. Hicks, deputy chief of mission at the U.S. Embassy in Libya and highest-ranking U.S. diplomat in the country at the time of the Benghazi jihad attacks; Mark I. Thompson, a former Marine who now serves as deputy coordinator for operations in the agency’s Counterterrorism Bureau; and Eric Nordstrom, a diplomatic security officer who was the top security officer in Libya.
Nordstrom first testified last fall about how State Department brass spurned his requests for increased security at the compound. Hicks and Thompson are coming forward publicly for the first time this week with more damning evidence contradicting Team Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s claims about the administration’s response the night of the attack and in the ensuing months of cover-ups.
 
Read the rest here.

Did you know that some on the left blamed Ambassador Stevens for his own death?  Some actually blame Fox News for the “fictional” cover up?  But as is typical with the left, they rarely have facts on their side.  Do you ever check out the hacks at Daily Kos?  Dear Lord in heaven, what planet are THOSE people on anyway?  The “I hate everything and everybody’ bunch blame Republicans for EVERYTHING.  I won’t link them, but if you are curious, and can stomach it….have at it!
A piece of advice to those who will be involved in the hearings today:  Skip the salad, and go straight for the meat and potatoes!  I rather doubt this will be a slobber fest as it was when Clinton was lying under oath, but you never know.  Thanks the gentlemen for coming forward, and get on with the questions, which is what they should have done previously.  But you know how those Dems LOVE to suck up to this administration’s officials.
We want the TRUTH!  NOW would be nice!  Attacking the character of those brave souls who have stepped forward does NOTHING to help your, or your boss’, credibility….JAY!!!

GREAT SHARE

Most people, when they get to the end of their paycheck, do without. Not our Congress! Nope! They believe that since it’s not their money they are spending, and don’t have to work hard to earn it, they can do what they damn well please. Well, guess what ya free spending scum bags….WE CAN’T AFFORD YOU! Perhaps it’s time for WE, The People to put them on a strict budget. NO PAY! NO PERKS! If they want to serve in Congress, then that’s what they’ll do…SERVE….not be served!  That goes for the free spending POTUS as well.  NO more lavish parties!  NO more flitting about the world on expensive vacations.  NO more day trips to campaign!  ENOUGH!!
They have turned the citizens into slaves, working for THEIR pet projects, and doing NOTHING to earn the privilege. The intent of Congress is to serve in the best interest of THE PEOPLE. That no longer is true, and it breaks my heart to see what this country has become due to the hateful partisanship.
We have a POTUS that has pretty much destroyed the work of thousands of civil rights advocates over a long period of time in just a few short years, and divided this country in ways I haven’t seen since I was quite young. We have a Congress that undermines anything good that MIGHT be accomplished, on BOTH sides of the aisle. And we have a split between the haves, that work hard to succeed, and the have nots, who believe they are entitled to what they did not earn.  About half the country pay no taxes, and the other half  pay all of the taxes that support both those who won’t work, and a Congress that is barely functional, with all their grand USELESS ideas.
I can hear it now….  “I do too pay taxes!”  If you get a refund of the income tax taken out of your check, plus earned income credit, plus Lord knows what else, no…you don’t.  We have about 47% of the population not really contributing, and 539 individuals that are spending everything, PLUS trillions, that comes into the coffers.  Where is the logic???
STOP THE SPENDING! NOW!

Ready for Another Debt Limit Fight?
Amy Payne – The Foundry

Yes, it’s time to talk about the debt limit again.
Every time the U.S. bumps up against its debt ceiling, we start the cycle all over again. President Obama insists he won’t negotiate over the debt ceiling, but of course he will. Members of Congress grandstand about changing this vicious cycle, and then most clamber for the easy way out so they can return to matters they’d rather talk about, which is just about anything but cutting spending.
Meanwhile, federal spending continues its out-of-control expansion, and the debt clock keeps ticking.
We will hit the debt limit again on May 19. Treasury is expected to exhaust its cash management tools sometime in September or October. In the meantime, Washington’s periodic debt ceiling ritual will play out. Whatever happens, the debt limit should not be raised unless we are put on a path to balance the budget in 10 years. That’s the bottom line.
