Hey folks,
This is really getting pathetic now. The constant and continual attack on the War and the Bush Administration. WE ARE WINNING. Yet, the Mass Media Drones, and the LWL STILL feel the need to attack our own country and are trying everything to bring about our loss in Iraq. Get this from, USAToday- Baghdad's night curfews forcing women to schedule C-sections
BAGHDAD — Doctors in Baghdad are performing more scheduled Caesarean deliveries, the result of nightly curfews that make it difficult or impossible for pregnant women to reach hospitals after dark.Along with private vehicles, ambulances are banned from the streets during overnight curfews. That means women who choose not to schedule Caesareans must rely on midwives or hope they'll be able to arrange for police escorts if they go into labor at night, says Sister Bushra Gagagan, who manages a private maternity hospital run by nuns in Baghdad's Karrada district.
"For the women who live far from a hospital, I think it's safer for them if they schedule the operation," Gagagan says.
Innes Salam, a 23-year-old who recently gave birth to her second child via C-section at the hospital, agrees. "It's hard enough being pregnant here," she says. "I didn't want to worry about how I was going to reach the hospital if I had to give birth during the curfew."
Isarra Ali, 25, scheduled a Caesarean for the birth of her daughter Samar last February on advice of female friends and relatives. "What are you supposed to do if you go into labor in the middle of the night?" she says.
It’s because of the Bush Administration and his evil and illegal war in Iraq that is causing women to have babies on the street! This is horrible. We have to protect the women and children. {Sigh} People are actually feeling better about the country. They are feeling more safe, happier, and look toward a better future. Why?
Despite the violence, Iraq's birthrate rose to 37 children per 1,000 people in 2005 — the most recent year for which figures are available — up from 29 per 1,000 people in 2003, according to Health Ministry statistics. (The U.S. birthrate is 14 newborns per 1,000 people, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.)
They are having more kids than we are. Back to the evils of the war. They report,
The country's health care system is beleaguered, its free, government-run hospitals lacking in staff, equipment and medicines. Private hospitals are expensive: Ali's family spent 1.25 million Iraqi dinars — nearly $1,000 — so she could give birth at a private facility.
DO you have any idea what a birth costs HERE? I paid more than that for Joshua. I bet you did also if you had a child recently. Then this is very mis-leading.
The Iraqi Medical Association estimates as many as 12,000 of the 34,000 doctors registered before the U.S.-led invasion in March 2003 have left the country in the past three years. The IMA says assailants have murdered at least another 2,000 Iraqi physicians, and kidnapped roughly 250 others during that period.
Notice they do not tell you how many are left? How many new ones there are now? Nope. Just the negatives.
Then you have this story by AP -Clinton to give ideas for rebuilding gov't, by Philip Elliott.Presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton on Friday assailed a "culture of cronyism" in government as the Democratic front-runner vowed to streamline the federal bureaucracy and improve accountability.
In a speech in early primary state New Hampshire, Clinton called for slashing 500,000 government contractors, potentially saving up to $18 billion a year. The New York senator promised that a second Clinton White House would cut back on no-bid government contracts.
"It's not exactly the subject matter that gets people marching in the street, but if we don't restore the confidence and the competence of our government, we will see the steady erosion of our government's capacity," Clinton said.
{Laughing hard} What do you think we have NOW with the Democrat, sorry, the LWL {Left Wing Looneys} running the show? You have Traitors Pelosi and Murtha, who promised the same thing, are now attempting to destroy this country. You have countless proven corrupt people in positions of power. You have those that do not CARE about the American people, simply more and more power, and getting Bush, running the show now.
"It's time again for a president who can earn your respect and trust, one day at a time," Clinton said.
I agree with that, but it is not you. Noone trusts you NOW. This is too funny folks
The former first lady acknowledged voters look at politicians and government with cynicism — "that's sort of the American birthright" — but she said her plan could remedy that.
She called for a ban on former Cabinet officials lobbying their former colleagues, adding protections for whistleblowers, creating a public service academy and restoring her husband's White House Office of Technology Assessment.
{Laughing, banging hand on desk, wiping tear from eyes} Protection for WHISTLE BLOWERS? Did not a bunch of people that blew the whistle on you and Bill die or just disappear? Protection from whistle blowers would have been a better statement. {Laughing again}
"We know government isn't the answer to all our problems," Clinton said, but then added that the current administration often looks at federal programs with disdain and disrespect. "By denigrating our government, we undermine our capacity to work together to solve these problems."
And what exactly does treason cause?
Her proposals echoed "Reinventing Government," or REGO, a program launched during her husband's administration and run by Vice President Al Gore. REGO was credited with saving taxpayers more than $136 billion over eight years by cutting the federal work force, trimming layers of management and cutting subsidies for items like mohair and wool.
Folks, I cannot take this one anymore. That is EXACTLY what they have been trying to do REINVENTING GOVERNMENT! Not following the Constitution. They want omnipotent power. They want complete and total control of your lives. They think they REALLY know what is best for you, better than you do.
Clinton said some of the proposed changes would be made through executive order and others through legislation. She said she'd move quickly as president to implement the changes.
STOP!!! READ that again.
Clinton said some of the proposed changes would be made through executive order and others through legislation. She said she'd move quickly as president to implement the changes.
Folks, if this is NOT a clear warning to you. NOTHING will get through to you. ONE more time.
Clinton said some of the proposed changes would be made through executive order and others through legislation. She said she'd move quickly as president to implement the changes.
ANYTHING done by executive order, basically means, she wants, she gets. No votes, no input, no control. Anything by executive order is nearly impossible to reverse. She decides, you LIVE with it. Nothing anyone can do about it. Think about that.
She is coming. Some other LWL members are coming. They have control of the House, and Senate. Mainly because there is not ONE brave enough to stand up call for an investigation into Traitors Pelosi and Reid. And call for Pelosi to be removed and charged if found guilty. No not one, brave enough to call them what they are. Not one , brave enough to stand up for this country.
Again, this is not one of those things that you have to trust the person, me, telling you. Listen to these lunatics from yourselves, they are TELLING you who and what they are.
