POLITICAL DIGEST 05/23/2012 CONSERVATIVE

Worth Reading: Big Lies in Politics. By Thomas Sowell.
Excerpt: The fact that so many successful politicians are such shameless liars is not only a reflection on them, it is also a reflection on us. When the people want the impossible, only liars can satisfy them, and only in the short run. The current outbreaks of riots in Europe show what happens when the truth catches up with both the politicians and the people in the long run.

43 Catholic institutions file suits over HHS mandate
Excerpt: Today's Roman Catholic calendar lists May 21st as the feast day of St. Christopher Magallanes, a martyr killed for celebrating Mass during the Cristero War in Mexico. Perhaps Catholics today may want to recall St. Thomas More -- the patron saint of lawyers, who was executed for refusing to agree to a mandate that gave Henry VIII the prerogative of defining religious expression in England. Dozens of Catholic institutions filed lawsuits today against the Department of Health and Human Services over its mandate and its narrow definition of religious practice: (OK, now we really see the US Catholic Church in action. At long, long last, and in some ways, overdue. But better late than never, and now they can lead in the fight against the manipulation and limitation of religious organizations in this free nation. It's important to understand this is NOT just about Catholics, it's about the right to practice your religious precepts freely. This Administration is exempting Muslims from partaking in the plan because it's against their religious beliefs about insurance, but has no tolerance for a Christian religion? Definitely time to stand and fight, in the same spirit the Founders did. –Del. Fight liberal Catholophobism! ~Bob.)

OBAMA IS OUR MOST WASTEFUL PRESIDENT AND ASKS US TO "TIGHTEN YOUR BELTS" - AUDACITY BEYOND BELIEF!

AIR FORCE ONE 
 It's hard to believe that CBS actually said something that wasn't flattering to this President!

Air Force One:

This is from Mark Knoller of CBS.

The pilots and crew of Air Force One are flying more hours than a rookie on a beer run.

They are tired of it too, and are adding more crew to Air Force-1, - I know this for a fact because I'm one of the instructors that trains the crews. Our company (Atlas Air) has had the Air Force-1 and E-4 contract for over three years and I've been doing it for about 18 months now.
Last year (2011) Obama flew in Air Force One 172 times, almost every other day.
 White House officials have been telling reporters in recent days that the Democrat doesn't intend to hang around the White House quite so much in 2012.They explain he wants to get out more around the country because, as everyone knows, that midterm election shellacking had nothing to do with his health care bill, over-spending or other policies, and everything to do with Obama's not adequately explaining himself to his countrymen and women.

WHAT IS HAWAII HIDING? SHERIFF JOE ASKS

Cold Case Posse Takes the Eligibility Investigation to Hawaii!
Fellow Patriot,

Sheriff Joe has sent his lead Cold Case Posse investigator and a deputy detective on a mission to Hawaii to discover the truth for Americans everywhere.

As you know, the Hawaii Department of Health continues to resist ALL efforts made to verify that the Honolulu agency has a valid birth certificate on file for Obama.

Sheriff Joe reported his intentions to WND Friday after the Hawaii Department of Health refused to confirm to Arizona Secretary of State Ken Bennett that it has a valid Obama birth certificate on file.  All Bennett asked for was a mere email confirming the Department of Health has a certified copy of the birth certificate on file. But they can’t (or won’t) even do that!

Sheriff Joe said that the Hawaii Department of Health’s refusal to cooperate makes it look like Hawaii officials “are hiding something.”Bennett went on the record saying he might keep Obama’s name off the state presidential ballot if he does not receive the confirmation from Hawaii AND that under Hawaii law, government officials can request verification that the state has possession of a valid birth certificate.

OBAMA DECLARED WAR ON THEM...BUT...

Ticks in Tennessee, but there are others. A mild winter followed by early spring means insects that carry all types of diseases will be worse this year, said Frank Hale, professor of entomology with the University of Tennessee Extension. West Nile virus has already been found in mosquitoes in North Nashville ­ the earliest positive detection the Metro Public Health Department has ever reported.Kaitlyn’s recovery from Rocky Mountain spotted fever has been slow because she did not start taking doxycycline, the recommended medication, sooner, her father said.
