Reid needs a real life

I watched Harry Reid and Greta Van Sustren (clips) and it occurs to me that the liberal democrats are living in a fantasy world. My oldest boy is going into psychology and he describes it as a self indulgent delusional state. Reid actually believes that people are thanking him for Health Care. The man has lost his mind. How can he miss the people protesting? Are all democrats in this state of delusion? I know Claire McCaskill is. She keeps talking about how the people of Missouri are so happy with Healthcare. Personally I think Claire needs to get the hell out of St. Louis and meet the rest of her state. Not all of us are welfare recipient, government hand out begging victims. Some of us have a life and we don't care for her brand of baby sitting.

I have yet to meet anyone who likes healthcare. They keep telling me they are out there, but I haven't found any yet, and I really am looking. I would like to meet someone who can tell me why it's a good thing my premium is going from $200/month to $600/month. I really want to know what they think.

One good thing that happened today is the blocking of the FCC from controlling the internet. As a computer geek I can tell you that is the LAST place the FCC needs to stick their socialist nose. They barely know what a router is, let alone how to institute a decent security policy on one. If they had gotten their hands on the power to tell us how to secure our networks, none of us would have a safe credit card number in the world. So thank you courts. You did good for once.

Senate Bill 773 - We lose the last frontier of free speech

What is Senate Bill 773? Well, here is the report from Computer World that explains it pretty well:
Link to Article

"April 6, 2009 (Computerworld) Two U.S. senators last week proposed legislation that would give federal officials new powers to create and enforce data security standards for key parts of the private sector — and even shut down systems in some cases.

The Cybersecurity Act of 2009 would empower the National Institute of Standards and Technology to set "measurable and auditable" security standards for all networks and systems run by federal agencies, government contractors and businesses that support critical infrastructure services.

NIST would also be charged with developing a standard for testing and accrediting software built by or for those groups. In addition, the bill would enable the president to order that critical infrastructure networks be disconnected in the event of cybersecurity emergencies or for reasons of national security.

The bill, which was introduced by Sens. Jay Rockefeller (D-W.Va.) and Olympia Snowe (R-Maine), doesn't specifically define what would qualify as a critical network or system. "

So aside from owning the newspapers, having a slobbering mainstream media that lives off the mayhem our president creates, he and his supporters want to control our last bastion of truly free speech. I urge you to contact your Senator and tell them to vote against SB-773. Big Brothers reach is expanding. We need to maintain our freedom
