What specifically are you calling for us to do Doug? Yesterday, Weepy Boehner again flipped after he last flopped in calling for a one-year delay.

In the meantime, doctors are quitting by the thousands, HMOs and other healthcare providers are cutting staff, health insurance companies are taking big losses as they lose policyholders, and so on.

Why isn't the GOP exploiting this mess at a time when more and more Dems would vote for a repeal and defund? Why? Because the fix is in. The "right" people have been paid off.

I expect that as things continue to worsen, the Republicans will flog the Dems during the election season with this and when the elections are behind us, there will be a half-hearted attempt to pass a massive bailout bill for the insurance companies which will finally take us to single payer by 2015. It's probably too late already. The old healthcare system is already gone.

As with everything else these days of universal entitlement fever across the political spectrum, we kept delaying today's "small" pain into the future hoping to escape any pain at all. Now we have run out of time and the "big" pain is here and we can't escape. We are now going to grow up the hard way. Heckuva job!

And since qualifications don't matter with these guys, hire Sasha Baron Cohen as the lead programmer.

That was the first parade I worked and I'll never get over how it feels to be in a crowd with all of the distractions and background crowd noise when suddenly a performance for the ages happens right in front of you. The audience was blown away. The Rose Parade has been one of the most patriotic events in America for a long time. Great way to start every year.

Contrast that to the greatest performance by far of "God Bless America" ever. Period.

Martina McBride at 2002 Pasadena Rose Parade opening ceremony. How can anyone sing so well? I never get tired of listening to this. Plus she's drop dead gorgeous!

Ah truth. It's all relative. As in it depends who you're related to.

I just found out yesterday that my closest friend in my office went to grammar school with Axelrod in Brentwood. Yikes. He also knows Shulman professionally. You never know who you know and who they know.

I wonder why I never met Kevin Bacon? He must be too reclusive or something for me to not have bumped into people who know people who know him. He should get out more and meet people.

Is there a Schwratz's Law? You know, as in "Muphry was an optimist"?

It's working wonders in Chocolate City and in Farrakhan's own South Side Chicago. Stick with what's working. No need to complicate things and get everybody all confused. Black = good. White = bad.

Here's another guy onto something big: Farakhan:

http://detroit.cbslocal.com/2013/05/17/farrakhan-...

Farrakhan has apparently declared Detroit liberated of all white people (except for Doug of course who is operating under cover as a real estate speculator bottom fishing for good deals while spying for us white people) and that it is now time for blacks to "unite" and pool their vast cultural and community resources to turn Detroit into the shining jewel it was meant to be and would have been had it not been for the white occupation.

There is no limit to what a city of fatherless families of illiterates on welfare can do once liberated from the white man.
