Health bills fail to block illegals from coverage - Washington Times

 

Hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants could receive health care coverage from their employers under the bills winding their way through Congress, despite President Obama's explicit pledge that illegal immigrants would not benefit.

The House bill mandates, and the Senate bill strongly encourages, businesses to extend health care coverage to all employees. But the bills do not have exemptions to screen out illegal immigrants, who usually obtain jobs by using false identities and are indistinguishable from legal workers.

Just wondering if anyone will link this ancient history together. Was Mr. Wilson right on? I’m sure we have all forgotten already.

The Message Bible vs ?

KJV
"He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." John 3:36

NKJV
"He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.” John 3:36

NIV
"Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life, but whoever rejects the Son will not see life, for God’s wrath remains on him.” John 3:36

Message
"Whoever accepts and trust the Son gets in on everything, life complete and forever!" [John 3:36a]

Seems watered down to me, even a totally different meaning. It is hard to compare the message because it is not included in online bibles like this. I really don't understand people's fascination with the "Message". Maybe things like God's wrath is too scary.

If we had a Republican administration the left would be frothing with moral indignation.

Jesse Ventura searches for coverups -- latimes.com

 

On another episode, you investigate the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP), an Alaska-based facility that bombards the ionosphere with high-frequency signals and that conspiracy theorists say is used for nefarious purposes, like weather control. You go to HAARP and can't get in, yet the facility offers open houses to the public. How secretive could they be?
Every other year, they invite people in for coffee and doughnuts. If that's all it is, an unclassified research project, then why wouldn't I be allowed in? It gets its funding from DARPA [the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency], the most secret part of the Pentagon. That doesn't raise concern with you?
It doesn't seem like in that episode you really got to the bottom of anything.
How can you get to the bottom, with a one-hour TV show and the limited resources I have? Hey, I'm doing a lot better than you guys are! How's that for you?
You don't think journalists investigate anything?
Not much. They investigate the death of Anna Nicole Smith, which I won't be covering.

I am no Jesse fan but here are my favorite quotes from the interview.

Navy SEALs Face Assault Charges for Capturing Most-Wanted Terrorist - Iraq | War | Map - FOXNews.com

Navy SEALs have secretly captured one of the most wanted terrorists in Iraq — the alleged mastermind of the murder and mutilation of four Blackwater USA security guards in Fallujah in 2004. And three of the SEALs who captured him are now facing criminal charges, sources told FoxNews.com.

The three, all members of the Navy's elite commando unit, have refused non-judicial punishment — called a captain's mast — and have requested a trial by court-martial.

Ahmed Hashim Abed, whom the military code-named "Objective Amber," told investigators he was punched by his captors — and he had the bloody lip to prove it.

I would think having murdered and MUTILATED people then being captured by Navy Seals, one might consider himself fortunate to only have a bloody lip. What am I missing? Oh yeah, political correctness gone mad. We are going down hill fast people, get used to it. Our rank and file military must love our administration. Just call them all home and pay for their college.
