Friday Flushings

Obamacare Day Four
Harry Reid refuses to negotiate with the GOP regarding Obamacare regardless of the government shut down. The mainstream media is blaming the GOP for all the angst this is causing. Now how predictable is that? A White House staffer, who currently remains anonymous, has basically claimed that the Democrats are "winning," and they will get what they want regardless if the debt ceiling is reached. 

The effect of the government shut down is being felt even across the Atlantic into France where the Normandy Memorial is closed to visitors. You can blame both sides of the aisle for the shut down if you'd like, and you wouldn't be off base, but the real blame lies with Obama's administration. It is very clear that open air memorials, scenery that is open to the public at all times and does not require government staffing, should not be closed to the public. 

When war veterans who planned to visit their WWII Memorial in Washington D.C., most for the first time in their 90 years of life, are prohibited from doing so by this administration, there is something horribly wrong. It's a political statement. It's all for the purpose of making the shut down hurt the public as much as possible, so Harry Reid and the rest of Obama's administration, can get their way, and with the help of the media, make it look like the entire debacle is the fault of the GOP. 

Obama said that he has "bent over backwards to work with the Republican party." He says one thing but does the opposite. The left believes what he says because, unlike Ronald Reagan, they don't verify.

Who will win? Certainly not the public. Definitely not our veterans.

D.C. Car Chase
A mentally ill, 34 year old dental hygienist, Miriam Carey, driving an Infinite sedan, tried to breach a White House checkpoint yesterday. This led to a high speed car chase that ended in Carey being shot and killed by an officer. There was an 18 month old child in the car, her baby, who was unhurt now, but will grow up without her mother.

It is believed that the cause of her mental illness is due to post-partum depression, which can cause psychotic-like effects, and it doesn't appear as if Carey was receiving any treatment for her mental status.

Cars that intentionally try to run over people don't kill people, the driver does. Guns that shoot bullets at people don't kill people, the shooter does. The killer is not the object that kills, it's the agent of the object.

This makes the case for our need of better mental healthcare and judging from what we're hearing about Obamacare, this isn't in the cards.
