Time To Light Up the World Again

Short notice here, but the WWF is once again sponsoring that ridiculous event, Earth Hour, at 8:30 PM local time.

As I have commented on before, this is nothing more than a feel-good notion, something to try to manipulate people into believing -- or at least pretending to believe, which is no better -- in the socialist-inspired, scientifically-unsound, so-called theory of AGW (Anthropogenic Global Warming, for those of you who haven't wandered deep into my older rantings).

So, like I said last year, it's time to light up the world. Turn on the lights! Run the A/C and the heat together! Mow your lawn -- well, it'll be nighttime, so just run your lawn mower! Idle your car in the driveway with the lights on bright! Fire up the barbecue grill!

I'm going to also have all my outdoor lights on and be standing outside. Maybe the astronauts on the International Space Station can take my picture.

Senate "Health Care" Reform Bill Passes; American Health Care to Follow

The House of Representatives passed the Senate "health care" reform bill today, and it is a certainty that President Obama will sign it. The only thing that will delay that signature is arranging the ceremony in the Rose Garden. Whether or not the "fixes" in the so-called reconciliation bill pass or not, this marks the darkest day for American medical care ever, even darker than the day Medicare was passed in 1965.

I have expounded my initial thoughts on this 'momentous' occasion on my companion blog on RedState. It will hopefully get a wider readership there.

In a related vein, I also direct you to this from Walter Williams, re-emphasizing what I have said previously.

There is now a much more important target for my ranting:

OBAMACARE DELENDA EST!!!!!

Coming Down to the Wire -- Stop ObamaCare NOW!!!

Sometime this week, supposedly, the House of Representatives will vote upon the previously passed Senate "health care" reform bill. The time to stop this obscenity is now. Contact your CongressCritter now -- call, write, email, text, Tweet, send up smoke signals, whatever. Tell them not just to vote no, but what you will be doing for them if they do not vote no, namely voting for whoever is running against them this November.

While you're at it, do the same for your Senators, and if your Senator(s) voted for this monster, let them know that you hope that they have enjoyed their time in the Senate for it will soon be coming to an end.

American Solutions has linked a video from a new organization of physicians and surgeons called Docs 4 Patient Care. This group was formed last year as a response to the AMA's incomprehensible support for ObamaCare and to let the public know that the majority of doctors in this country do NOT support this reform plan. In addition to the video linked by American Solutions, I would recommend this video, made by the organization's founder and president, Dr. Hal Scherz.

I encourage everyone to spread the word and these videos as widely and as quickly as possible.

There is no time to waste.
