US Most Expensive Place to Give Birth in the World


Maybe one way to help reduce the number of abortions in America would be to address the high cost of having a baby. 



(Newser) – The average hospital baby delivery in the US costs $9,775—$15,041 if it's a Caesarean—more than any first-world country in the world, the New York Times reports. It's $3,541 in France, and $2,641 in Britain. And the price hike is not because US mothers-to-be are getting better or more high-tech care; the US actually has one of the highest rates of infant and maternal death in the developed world. It's because of the unique way health care in America is billed: item by item. "It’s not primarily that we get a different bundle of services when we have a baby," says an economist at John Hopkins. "It’s that we pay individually for each service and pay more for the services we receive."
Delivery costs in the US have tripled since 1996 (Read more details from this link)

China encircles U.S. by sailing warships in American waters, arming neighbors - Washington Times


China has been quietly taking steps to encircle the United States by arming western hemisphere states, seeking closer military, economic, and diplomatic ties to U.S. neighbors, and sailing warships into U.S. maritime zones.
The strategy is a Chinese version of what Beijing has charged is a U.S. strategy designed to encircle and “contain” China. It is also directed at countering the Obama administration’s new strategy called the pivot to Asia. The pivot calls for closer economic, diplomatic, and military ties to Asian states that are increasingly concerned about Chinese encroachment throughout that region.

U.S. officials said there are growing fears that some type of military confrontation could break out between China and Japan over the disputed islands that are said to contain large underwater gas and oil reserves.
North of the U.S. border, Canada this week concluded a military cooperation agreement with China during the visit to Beijing by Canadian Defense Minister Peter G. Mackay. The agreement calls for closer cooperation between the two militaries, including bilateral military exchanges.

“It has cultivated far better military relations with the openly anti-American regimes in the region and could become a sort of political-economic godfather to ensure the survival of the Castro dictatorship system in Cuba,” said Fisher, with the International Assessment and Strategy Center.
Intelligence cooperation with Cuba is “substantial,” Fisher says, and will expand sharply in the region through the activities of its state-run telecommunications firms such as Huawei Technologies and ZTE in the region.

What the media failed to mention: According to the Defense Department's own numbers, military men suffered 2,000 more sexual attacks than their female counterparts in 2012, the first full year that open homosexuality was tolerated.

The Trouble with Barack's Barracks


It must have taken a lot of restraint for America's top military leaders to sit through yesterday's Senate hearing on sexual assault and never say the one thing on everyone's minds: "We told you so." A little over two years ago, the same Senate ignored the warnings of many of the men assembled Tuesday and charged ahead with its repeal of "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" against the military's advice. Now, a year and half into this post-DADT era, these Senators demand to know why sexual attacks are through the roof.

Big Brother Also Collecting Credit-Card Transactions

Whatever you do, your Government shall know.
Each day we learn of more electronic fascism. By following your credit cards the government knows everything from your eating habits to your bra size.

 Is this coming out now to make us numb?  Will Americans fight back? Can Americans still fight back?

So the cats are out of the bag. Obama's scandals are becoming exposed. Where do we go from here?

In short, don't let him get away with it and demand more answers! Freedom loving Americans are at risk from the “Let's tone it down” and “Give the President the benefit of the doubt” type RINOs who would gladly appease the Left for their own benefit. Their rhetoric would allow for what is called plausible deniability. This is just another phrase that means there is enough chaos and confusion to give a lie a chance to work.

Political reality is another thing altogether. We have all the evidence we need to accept the premise that Barack Obama created the culture that lead to the behaviors that brought forth the scandals. His words and actions are therefore to blame for the collective totality of his government and its actions. It was Barack Obama who commanded his followers in his own words “We’re gonna punish our enemies and we’re gonna reward our friends who stand with us on issues that are important to us...” (http://hotair.com/archives/2010/10/25/obamas-turnout-pitch-to-latinos-get-out-there-and-punish-your-enemies/) He also supported the more vengeful nature of his chief adviser Valarie Jarrett who said, “After we win this election, it’s our turn.  Payback time.  Everyone not with us is against us and they better be ready because we don’t forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay.  Congress won’t be a problem for us this time. No election to worry about after this is over and we have two judges ready to go.”  http://theulstermanreport.com/2012/11/01/valerie-jarret-after-we-win-this-election-its-our-turn-payback-time-wsi/ It becomes abundantly clear how having the likes of Valarie Jarrett, Rohm Emmanuel and David Axelrod pulling strings in a government would lead to the abuses that emerged from the IRS and the EPA. One could easily say to the president, “You built that!”

It was also Barack Obama whom we know promoted the “It was a video” instead of a terror plot story regarding the Benghazi tragedy weeks after it was known otherwise. Because he refuses to disclose what leadership he practiced that night, we are fully justified in concluding there was none.

It was Barack Obama who regularly snubbed Israel. The leaks regarding that country came at times most beneficial for Obama's political ratings or at times a distraction from other issues was needed. The nation of Israel has come to the same conclusion. It is now policy that when Israel defends itself, it will no longer inform the United States in advance. Barack Obama is clearly an influence upon the ease of leaks and thus the new strain in US-Israeli relations.

It was clearly Barack Obama's move to cover for Eric Holder despite being in contempt of Congress over the Fast and Furious scandal. Nothing was ever said about the mysterious dropping of the case of voter intimidation by The New Black Panthers by the Attorney General. The behavior was repeated when the President again supported Holder despite the clearly misleading (perhaps perjured) statements made regarding the justice Department's spy ring aimed at journalists. Obama has been known to bully journalists whom he was displeased with in the past as well. Again, he created that culture.

The greatest mistake at this time would be to appease the Left and go along with their plans to crisis manage these issues away. Americans who want to fight for freedom must drop all the PC language and state the obvious conclusion:

The IRS took orders from Barack Obama. Lois Lerner was promoted during her time there for a job well-done. Even if his orders were not direct, and therefore plausibly deniable, the culture created an indirect set of priorities that led to the abuse of people clearly known to occupy the President's enemies list.

Barack Obama is clearly backing the moves made by Eric Holder. He has never demanded that his Attorney General fully cooperate with Congress. After condemning the way reporters were infringed upon, Obama has had nothing to say about Holder seeking the warrants.

Barack Obama uses executive orders to get his way. However, upon hearing of the scandals he has not used this power to restore American's privacy and equal justice in dealing with the Federal Government. He clearly wants to let this situation blow over and allow the powers of a huge and intrusive federal government to continue for his purposes.

There is no evidence of effective leadership from the President on the night of 9/11/12 when our people in Benghazi where under attack. There is evidence that decisions COULD have been made to save lives that night. Nothing was done. Americans can compare this lack of decisiveness to the many days Barack Obama took to step-up during the Gulf Oil Spill disaster early in his first term. Americans must accept that the efforts to shift blame have failed. We must also continue to demand all the answers that have been withheld. We also know there were 30 survivors who have not been made available. America has a right to hear from them, no excuses any more.

It cannot be stressed enough, we cannot allow the castrated cuddle-bugs in the GOP to place nice with the not so nice Left. If we do, justice will not be done. However, if united, we continue to stand, maybe there will be a more responsive Congress and less dangerous IRS.

Tyranny in our time - Washington Times (must read)


Americans are beginning to recognize the disturbing similarities between President Obama and the fallen Richard Nixon, but the comparison that may matter more is between Mr. Obama and King George III.
“He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance,” in the words of the Declaration of Independence.

Will the Boston Terrorist Hunt Lead to More Liberal Use of Martial Law?

The Boston bombing taught us that terror can strike anywhere in America at any time. However, it also showed Americans that the Federal Government, State, and Local law Enforcement have substantial tools at their disposal to address a crisis  like the one that began on April 15th and ended on Friday.

Now that the situation is over, Americans need to question what powers were needed and unneeded as well as how they may effect the future of freedom in America. Citizens have grown all too used to government and private cameras watching them. Unfortunately, the Boston crisis will be used to justify and employ more invasive means of monitoring all that we do. Recently, it was learned that the IRS and other agencies can open our e-mails without a warrant or even informing us. (Good bye 4th amendment) Even scarier, the NSA is building a huge complex in Utah with massive computers that will follow all our telecommunications and storing data for future use (and abuse.) The spy center will have software that retains/taps you cell phone and maintains both audio and a transcript. http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2012/03/ff_nsadatacenter/

At first one might be influenced to believe this is all for the sake of national security. Don't let yourself be fooled. Mark the words of Congressman John Dingle when referring to the Socialist healthcare law known as Obamacare, "It will take time but we must control the people." In one sentence we have the mindset of DC. They want to control you and your whole life. They also want to control your children and take away your role as a parent.  According to left-wing news announcer Melissa Harris-Perry, your children belong to the "collective" community i.e. "the state." http://foxnewsinsider.com/2013/04/09/msnbc-airs-promo-claiming-children-belong-to-whole-communities

Our government, our schools and many other institutions have been infiltrated with persons of this mindset. They have no problem with more government power, even to the point of giving the Constitution of the United States and expiration date. Being close to DC I can see the elite homes and luxury lifestyles afforded those whom the taxpayers employ to control them. The political class wants to retain the lifestyle they are accustomed to and gain more power in the process. When was the last time Congress or the regulators ever restored or expanded our rights?

The Boston situation takes us back to Colonial times in a way. Little is mentioned of the 3rd Amendment of the Bill of Rights. It states, "No soldier shall, in times of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a matter to be prescribed by law." It was the Obama administration itself that declared the 'War on Terror' to be over. Therefore, in a time of peace, how can homeowners be so violated? This little known amendment was insisted upon because of the grave abuses of soldiers in private homes. Families were abused, robbed, raped and sometimes killed in the name of military activity.Our founders said "No more of this." Are we to take their warning lightly?

Gotta Bible in School? You are Fired!!

In David Limbaugh's book Persecution  he gives countless stories of Christians being persecuted in America
for their faith. Since that time, the problem of double standards and anti-Christian bias has increased. In the Age of Obama it has gotten worse. In the link below, giving a child a New Testament unsolicited is not cause for a warning, the innocent helpful adult was fired. This is how much the left hates Christianity.

One way to counter-act this? Buy a few Bibles from the dollar store and offer them to young people free.

More gun confiscation. Disputes between law enforcement and military arise in the Fort Hood area.



Americans need to take a serious look at what is happening to their 2nd Amendment rights lately. Never before has an administration been so dedicated to disarming good law abiding American citizens. An excuse is made of the violence in the news while the same media censors stories of citizens who defend themselves with firearms. The link below is an example of left wing efforts to make our country desensitized to loosing their rights.  Learn more:

Our schools, now being run by Socialists and Union Thugs, have decided to start teaching children the "benefits" of giving up their Constitutional Rights.

The indoctrination curriculum is being more strictly imposed by our schools. In the link below an example is made of what happens teachers influence children to abandon the rights we Americans consider essential. Again I ask, what will you do when the schools lie to children and try to wash their brains with the concepts of absolute state control.

No surprise here. The liberals have infiltrated Education. Now they are making the Al Gore Michael Moore Global Warming mindset a regular part of the indoctrination of young people.  Will you be willing to protest when your schools lie to children and make them tools of the State?
