What it takes for an Oregon democRat to sell out

Friday, Peter (The Rat) DeFazio mentioned some kind of something about why he was going to vote no on President Obama's health care bill.  He said, in some fuzzy, nondescript, roundabout way that the rural areas in Oregon would be treated unfairly in this bill.  So, being the man of principle that he is, he held out until he got what he wanted from Obama and the DemocRats.

Sorry to do this to you again...

NOT.

He got nothing of the kind.  If fact, he really didn't GET anything at all.  He got a promissory note from Obama--a man that has failed to keep his word in just about everything.  Yeah, real smart guy, this DeFreakio.

I love Oregon.  I love my city, Portland.

But...

You know what our most popular bumper sticker is?  "KEEP PORTLAND WIERD".  It should say "KEEP PORTLAND STUPID"  But then, Defazio is doing a damned good job of both.

DeFazio's 2nd Fifteen...

...minutes of fame.  This makes it 30 minutes and yes, you can demand that extra allotted time returned to you in kicker form forthwith.  Godspeed to you.

Actually, I was thinking...maybe DeFazio is the smartest guy on the planet.  (Shh...I did NOT just say that).

Smart, because by stating his displeasure with the would-be rural dispensation (or "lack" thereof) under this bill, he makes his liberal friends look bad for accepting a bill that doesn't do what it is supposed to in the leftist way of thinking.  I mean, what are they gonna say when he lambastes them for betraying their ideology point-blank?

Doubly smart, because by voting NO, Republicans and the rest of us will breathe our little, insignificant, individual sighs of relief and maybe stay off his case for fifteen (AND ONLY FIFTEEN) minutes.

TRIPLY smart, (I know, this is getting to the point of outlandish fiction), because he just might be able to finnagle a little sump'in sump'in for his little paltry district.  I'm sure he'll demand more cucumbers with which grade schoolers can practice fitting prophylactics on...

And that makes Peter DeFazio at least THREE TIMES SMARTER THAN THIS GUY:




Oh, I dunno. Maybe not.

That's all.

DeFazio Shoots for Fifteen

...minutes of fame.

Ooh!  Look at me!  I'm in major news outlets and shit!  I'm Peter Defazio and I KICK ASS!

So, why did Peter DeFazio (Oregon, Socialist) elect to change his vote on the health-care reform to "no"?

It's simply not socialist enough for him.



Oh, c'mon, that's gotta make you laugh somethin' wicked.




That's all.

We won what? How many times? And now we're...wait a second!

Here is a list of all Nobel Laureates for Medicine from 1901 to date.  I have no idea what major legislation could possibly prompt a person to seek out such a list and translate (for your ease) the country of each winner.  Certainly there must be a lesson to be learned from this list.  Certainly.

Thanks to my wife, Karey for her assistance in this.



DE=Germany
CH= Switzerland
AU=Australia
SE= Sweden
DK=Denmark
ZA=South Africa (Union of-funded by USA)
PT=Portugal
BE= Belgium
HU= Hungary
AT= Austria
CA= Canada
RU=Russia

Here are the totals of some notable countries with the distinguished award on their national mantles.  Of course, nothing striking sticks out on this list at all.

USA:  92
United Kingdom:  18
Germany:  15
France:  9
Switzerland:  5
Australia: 5
Canada: 2
China: 0

Let it be known that my eyes kind of hurt after all this sorting and looking up the stupid abbreviations for these stupid countries, so I may have made a mistake or two.  I, for certain, will never be awarded a Nobel Prize for anything--especially not math.  This list was compiled by cross-referencing the list of winners by name at http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/medicine/laureates/ with the year-by-year bios on each winner(s).

That's it.  That's all.

Home Improvement

I've added some pages up at the top of the bloggy thing there. .  Never fear, this is not to confuse you, it's more for my benefit than anything (I are cornfuzed and befuddlimificated often). 

You'll still be able to see the latest stuff on the main page, for the most part.  But...you may wanna check those tabs every now and again.  (It's where I'll be putting articles I post on other websites and other junk that is totally random).

Nothing there now, don't bother looking. :D

Oh, and thanks for reading and helping this blog reach milestone after milestone. To follow the blog (something I just instigated last month when I got serious about this whole blogging thing) just scroll down and select FOLLOW).

A Lesson in Individual Freedom

Lee sent me this, I thought I'd pass it along.  Enjoy!  Think!

An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before,
but had once failed an entire class.


That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.
The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama's plan".

All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A...
After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B.

The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy.

As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little.

The second test average was a D!

No one was happy.

When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.

The scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.

All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.
Could not be any simpler than that.
