Oversight Hearing on GSA Abuse

Rep Trey Gowdy at a hearing regarding the GSA Scandal. Of course the Jurassic Press is playing this down because this is a Democrat administration. I agree with Gowdy, the GSA employees that did this should all be handed indictments. What they did was criminal.

Governments make things scarce by design. That's the whole thing about Marxist Materialism. It's about things, and the main thing is to make the main thing about limiting things to control everything. Look at your energy bills and how much they've gone up recently. We are told we need to cut back, it saves money and energy. You're using less energy and the energy companies say they need to raise prices to meet their costs because people using less energy brings in less income. Huh? It's true of energy, it's true of income; reducing your income by raising your taxes. Not blatantly, but with hidden fees. It's not the rich getting soaked. It's you and me. Reducing the quality and quantity of your health care. Costs are already skyrocketing and if ObamaCare doesn't get ruled out or overturned, then, like energy costs, your utility costs will go up too; and government will decide who gets what care and how much will be paid. Frightening thing is, half the country thinks this is okay. Frogs in the pot.

The Church, Government High Priests, and the People

I just posted about how the Liberals, Statists, Democrat Party mines the religious field in a most cynical and hypocritical manner possible. All that is part of the secularist movement and within that is the “spiritual but not religious” subculture.

Looking at Leftists disdain for religious people, that they are an ignorant weak stupid backward bunch of hicks, reminds us of Jesus, a hick raised away from the all knowing elites of Jerusalem. All us religious people out here in ‘flyover country’ are viewed the same way. A bunch unscientific, intolerant narrow-minded bigots.

High Priest Obama:

“And so part of the reason that our politics seems so tough right now, and facts and science and argument does not seem to be winning the day all the time, is because we're hard-wired not to always think clearly when we're scared. And the country is scared, and they have good reason to be.”

Secular Priest John Kerry:

“It's absurd. We've lost our minds. We're in a period of know-nothingism in the country, where truth and science and facts don't weigh in. It's all short-order, lowest common denominator, cheap-seat politics.”

The Washington DC crowed is the same as the Sadducees and Pharisees, a bunch of Elitists that know more and better that all the rest and tell us how to live. They think they know the Constitution better than the people, like the Religious elites of Jesus’ time thought they knew Scripture better than the people. Jesus proved he had a better way, and we Christians know we have a better way now.

That demeaning, unflattering view seeps into the Church, Protestant and Catholic. Some within the church buy into that view and use it as an excuse to leave. Many see the Church as backwards and not attended by very smart people. But if you suffer a set back and are hurting, do you go to your pastor or congressman? If you’re sick or injured do you go to a hospital (the idea and development belonging to Christians) or to your congressman or a government bureaucrat? When you have a need to surround yourself with the love of others, do you go to a meeting of the state assembly or church? When you want to help out, contribute, do you go to a charity or church, or a government program? When our country has a national tragedy, such as 9/11,  the churches filled, not government buildings. In the aftermath of Katrina the hard work of caring for the sick and lost and lonely, who provided the most people to help, and which people contributed the most and made the most sacrifice to help…Christians or government bureaucrats? Every week when I attend services I learn and am intellectually challenged.   

There’s a lot to commend the Church. It’s under fire from within and without. What will hold it together is Love. I don’t know of Dorothy Day, but just doing a cursory review of her writings, it’s apparent she’s a prophet, and we should listen to her as part of our constant reforming of the church and filling it with even more love. I’ll trust my pastors before I trust my political representatives or bureaucrats. I’ll have a deep and passionate love for my church before any government bureaucracy. We Christians must be forever reminded that within the Church is where we find Love, the kind Christ talks about, and we must remain committed to it. We must be passionately in Love with the Church.

New Health Care Bureaucracy-We Can See the Source of Infinity

"We have to pass the bill so you can find out what’s in it." ~~ Pelosi

This is a flow chart of the Democrats' Health Care bureaucracy.

There are 159 new federal programs and bureaucracies, but that's a best guesstimate because we're still finding out what's in it. Name a gov't anything that diminished in size. Just thought of the military, that gets reduced whenever the anti military Democrats win power, but that's about it.

Plus:
$569 billion in higher taxes;
$529 billion in cuts to Medicare;
swelling of the ranks of Medicaid by 16 million;
17 major insurance mandates;
Two new bureaucracies with powers to impose future rationing: the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute and the Independent Payments Advisory Board.
