What you call it all depends on how it is handled.
If you are forced to take it without asking it means that SOMEONE thinks you NEED it. Or, in other words, someone thinks you should make that decision which means they think death, for YOU, is a valid option. This is what the original language in the Obama Care bill forced. It made mandatory, annual end of life counseling for all recipients of Medicare, whether they asked for it or not. This indicates that someone in government thought that after 64 years of age everyone should consider suicide at least once a year!!! That is a death panel.
OK, the administration has backed off of that stance. But as this article points out, there is more to this than meets the eye.
Obamacare Pushes for Early Death
In this article on Newsmax.com they report that the "government is [STILL] developing and widely disseminating “decision aids”; that is, brochures". And as the article says, "that is none of their business".
In my opinion that is like having a beneficiary of your last will and testament advising you on the benefits of suicide!!! The government has a vested interest in whether you live or die once you are on Medicare..AND Social Security!! Do you really want them to be advising you on whether you should commit suicide or not? They stand to gain perhaps $25,000 a year from your demise!!! If they can convince enough people to choose death, they might be able to balance the budget.
Now, don't get me wrong. I am not against the counseling being available if and when you ask for it. But even then, it should not be from "government guidelines" or from government written "decision aids". It should be from your doctor and from his/her experience with similar patients or from your Pastor or Imam, or whatever. The choice of the source of your information should be YOURS, not the GOVERNMENTS.
Personally, I would never commit suicide. I am too much of an optimist. My worry would be that the day I decided to end it all, the next day they would discover an instant cure for my illness!!! I will wait until my maker calls me home and not one day earlier.

Non-Consentual Sex Partners
This article:
912 Project - Jared Law
makes the point that calling Illegal Immigrants, "Undocumented Workers" is like calling rapists "non-Consentual Sex Partners".
I think that Political Correctness has now gone over the precipice. At first I thought PC was just a little overly sensitive, but now it is obvious that it is really just a form of "NewSpeak". In the novel "1984" the world was ruled by Big Brother and there was a government department that had as its sole purpose, redefining words in such a way that they were not critical of the government. If the government was "retreating" in a battle, then the department of NewSpeak would redefine retreat to mean "advancing to a position of sustainable military action". The next week when the enemy was retreating, the definition was changed again.
Today the liberals have redefined "Liberal" to be "Progressive". Now, how can anyone be against progress??
They redefine "Illegal Immigrant" to be "Un Documented Worker" even though he/she may not be a worker at all, he/she may be a panhandler and may actually have documentation ... from his native country....
Janet Napolitano defines a "patriot" that exposes government weaknesses as a "Terrorist". I guess if you are for the downfall of the government so that you can replace it with a form more to your liking, as the current administration seems hell bent to do, then anything that might thwart that goal IS terrorism.
Obama calls "Death Panels" "End of life counseling" and rule by Legislative and Judicial arms of the government is replaced with "Regulation by Government Agency" and "Recess Appointment"
It wont work in the end because Obama underestimates the intelligence of the American people. We are a lot smarter than we look. Just because for the last 60 years we have been taking it lying down, doesn't mean we will continue. We will learn the language and no matter how they redefine it we will learn the new definitions. We are no longer going to have non-consensual sex with a government bent on screwing us. We are fighting back, we are calling the Progressives what they are, "Rapists".

Napolitano AGAIN ?
I had another post ready and then I saw the news. Janet is in Afghanistan to help seal the border there.
Now I will bet that the locals are real glad to see her. They like the open border and she has shown that she is for open borders.
She cant seal the border with Mexico and she lives here so I imagine her injection into this war means we will now loose it for sure if we weren't already. With Janet running the border show in Afghanistan I wonder how long it will be before the Taliban are controlling the southern border of the United States. It appears that both borders are the portals of drug smuggling so why not just join them and cut out the middle man, Mexico. That would bring down the price of drugs and increase the market here in the US.
She has enough to do here without gallivanting all over the world. But I guess if she isnt going to do her job on our southern border, at least, having her out of the country is a plus. Now if we could get a few others, of the administration, out of the country....and then control our borders.....we might have a win win situation.

First and Second Ammendment Rights Taken Away by Napalitano
Janet Napolitano is violating the constitutional rights of a citizen without due process.
The first amendment to the Constitution guarantees us freedom of speech. The second amendment guarantees the right to keep and bear arms.
The government just sent federal officers to the home of a pilot, Chris Liu, a commercial airline pilot based at San Francisco International Airport, that recently exposed the failures of Homeland Security in their "protection" of the airports of this land. He exposed the failures of Janet Napolitano so she reacted with the illegal seizure of his firearm which he was legally allowed to have by both the FAA and the State of California. She seized his weapon and forced the State of California to recall his "right to carry" permit. Then she accused him of terrorism and called him a threat.....accusations which she is still refusing to explain....all because he exposed HER failure to do HER duty to the country.
Janet Napolitano is the worst excuse for a public servant that I have ever seen. The woman would be a dictator similar to Chavez if she had the opportunity. Her "Deer in the headlights" expression every time she is asked a legitimate question shows her ignorance of US Law. How can she be qualified to be the head officer of a law enforcement group?

A "Three Steps To Recovery Program"
These are the powers of the government as described by the Constitution of the United States:
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States; but all duties, imposts and excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
To borrow money on the credit of the United States;
To regulate commerce with foreign nations, and among the several states, and with the Indian tribes;
To establish a uniform rule of naturalization, and uniform laws on the subject of bankruptcies throughout the United States;
To coin money, regulate the value thereof, and of foreign coin, and fix the standard of weights and measures;
To provide for the punishment of counterfeiting the securities and current coin of the United States;
To establish post offices and post roads;
To promote the progress of science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries;
To constitute tribunals inferior to the Supreme Court;
To define and punish piracies and felonies committed on the high seas, and offenses against the law of nations;
To declare war, grant letters of marque and reprisal, and make rules concerning captures on land and water;
To raise and support armies, but no appropriation of money to that use shall be for a longer term than two years;
To provide and maintain a navy;
To make rules for the government and regulation of the land and naval forces;
To provide for calling forth the militia to execute the laws of the union, suppress insurrections and repel invasions;
To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the militia, and for governing such part of them as may be employed in the service of the United States, reserving to the states respectively, the appointment of the officers, and the authority of training the militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;
To exercise exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten miles square) as may, by cession of particular states, and the acceptance of Congress, become the seat of the government of the United States, and to exercise like authority over all places purchased by the consent of the legislature of the state in which the same shall be, for the erection of forts, magazines, arsenals, dockyards, and other needful buildings;--And
To make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this Constitution in the government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereof.
These are ALL the powers of the Government. There are no other powers of the US Government that are within the Constitution of the US. Thus any powers that they describe for themselves that are not within the above Article 1 Section VIII of the United States Constitution are, by definition, UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
It should be painfully evident that Obama Care does NOT fit within this definition nor is it covered in ANY of the amendments to the Constitution.
1) In the future, all laws that are proposed before the House of Representatives or before the Senate of the United States should be measured against this ruler. If they fail to meed the definition they should be discarded WITHOUT A VOTE. There is no need to vote on an UNCONSTITUTIONAL LAW. If it is unconstitutional and is passed on then the Supreme Court will throw it out....hopefully....but a lot of time and effort went into a useless exercise.
2) In the future all laws that are already "on the books" should be, also, measured and if found wanting, they should be removed from the body of the law. Admittedly, this second job will be a bit harder. It will take years and dedication and must be done slowly as you cannot just stop "cold turkey" from a drug, money, without huge headaches. It will take time and dedication to re craft our government back into a Constitutional government.
3) To this end we must elect dedicated public servants into the legislative bodies. These must be men and women with experience and capabilities not always found easily among the general public. It is for this reason that I suggest that "Term Limits" as we often describe them are not appropriate....at least until this job is done. Term Limits can be exercised by our vote. If they do wrong, vote them out.
But there is a way to limit the power of the long term politicians that often leads to corruption without throwing the baby out with the bathwater. We need to get rid of the political corruption, but some of the men we need to retain for their talents.
Straight term limits just throws out the good with the bad. However limiting power within the structure, by mandating that all committee chairmen be elected by the members of the committee and that no chairman may chair for more than two sessions PERIOD, will reign in the long term power of Congressmen and Senators.
I propose an amendment to the Constitution that mandates, all the above, three steps to recovery. A "Three Steps to Recovery Program"

"Its All Her Fault"
I finally realized that its NOT George Bushes fault. Its also not Barack Obamas fault, in fact it is never the fault of any man. Women are the ones on whom the blame must fall. And as you follow that logic up stream you come to the conclusion that God is a woman, a belief that was popular in the late 1960s....right after he was dead.....must have been a rebirth???
Anyway, two days ago a bunch of us firemen and firewomen were sitting around the station and discussing the problems of the world when Jo Anne commented to her husband, "Dick, your suspenders are in need of adjustment." Dick, silently, adjusted them as best he could and then she said, "You have several GOOD pairs at home, Why dont you wear them?" Of course, that begs the question, "Why do Firemen wear red suspenders?" But thats a long subject that is fraught with pitfalls and arguments, so lets get on with my revelation.
It was then that I had one of my many epiphanies. I know, at 74 years of age I should have already learned just about everything and epiphanies should be behind me, but I am a slow learner. I suddenly realized that I had heard that very phrase before from my wife AND from many other wives. "You have some good ones, why don't you use them.....etc. etc." Women always know the location of and the uses of all our mens "junk".... because thats what it is ....until we need it....according to them....
I commented, "Men would still live in caves, sleeping on a pile of fur pelts, with a good cat and a big dog to keep him company and his clothes would only be enough to keep him warm and cover his genitals. If it were not for women." In fact it is actually women to blame that we men even worry about our genitals being covered, warm would be good enough for most men. I was amazed at the universal positive response I got from BOTH the men and women present. Women ARE responsible for civilization, they agreed. Men would never have come down out of the trees if left to themselves. They had a carefree, happy life swinging from tree top to tree top and eating bananas.
Without civilization there would be no wars so women are to blame for wars and men are dumb enough to fight them on behalf of the woman that wants a new dryer for the garage. For men, hanging the loincloth in a tree will suffice.
So, since its their fault, I think the next best presidential ticket would be Sara and Hillary and you can turn that either way round and I would vote for it. Its their fault so they should manage it. I want to go back to my cave.

The TEA Party is like a marriage
I have been having some discussions with fellow TEA Party people as well with a couple of local politicians about the role of the TEA Party and how to keep it viable.
One of the things that I have been asserting, and some disagree with me, is that the TEA Party should keep to Constitutional and Fiscal issues at the National level and to local issues at the local level. And we should keep clear of Social issues at any level except, maybe, at the local level. In other words, we should not get to bickering among ourselves about issues such as abortion, gays in the military, and FDA regulations. These have all been declared Constitutional and the the laws are in place. We can argue them till the cows come home, but its the law. Local issues like gambling and blue laws etc. can be fought outside the box of the TEA Party as they will only prove to be divisive. I dont say we need to ignore these problems, only that we need to fight those battles as individuals and not try to Co-Opt the TEA Party to fight those battles. Those issues are not part of our "platform". We cannot afford to become fractured into small groups over issues that have relevance only to a local few or that we find are across party lines and more likely to be issues of moral beliefs.
However, Tenth Amendment rights of the states as it relates to the Obama Care bill have NOT been tested at the Constitutional level and we should work on that.
We have First Amendment rights issues with the FCC in their attempts to regulate the Internet. These we should pursue.
We have Second Amendment rights issues with legislation that the Congress is always trying to shove down out throats. We need to keep on their backs about these.
And of course, fiscal responsibility and the huge national debt are issues that we all agree on.
The TEA Party is like a marriage in that you can keep it together if you avoid poking each other in the ribs with a sharp stick about your disagreements and concentrate on having fun with what you agree on.
A divorce now would be a disaster.
