After last week's nuclear fall-out from the "pro-choicers," one would think that the Celebrate Life (Tim Tebow) commercial was promoting resignation of all abortion doctors or something! I spent several minutes prior to the weekend trying to find the commercial on the Internet, as I had heard it had been leaked. I did not find it; what I did find, was Tebow's story. Bottom line, his mom could have aborted him (with good "reason") and chose not to against advice.

The commercial happened so fast, so quiet and non-hyped that I truly missed what it was about. It says on YouTube that it is :35sec long. Well, all I caught on Sunday was Tebow saying "ok, mom" and the website header at the end. I recall saying "Boy, now that was evil! That was sooo worth the hype last week!" (read as satire/sarcasm).

In the fourth quarter, Audi rolls in with their commercial. With their promotion dollars, they emphasize all types recycling "problems" and reprimand those that violate them, leaving the viewer to assume jail for each violation. Some of the problems; for instance the hot spa, choosing plastic, are an exaggeration of the effect the "violation" has on the environment. In the end, the "evil" auto wins out - but wins because it is "green".

There was no leak last week on this commercial; but it was quite the buzz at the water cooler! Fear of a non-desired but potentially near, uncontrolled, government backed progressive wish was viewed in digital reality. Further, over 100 (guessing) people appear in the commercial - thus, endorsing it. Granted, it brought nervous laughs...but, fear was behind them. I mean, imagine a knock on your door cause you don't compost (google compost law, California). It is coming.....

The talking heads on conservative radio/TV addressed it, but little to insignificant coverage existed outside those circles.

"Pro-choicers" threw a bloomin' fit over Tebow - which essentially said "celebrate life - have fun, enjoy your family, laugh, tease, etc." But the commercial that endorsed the loss of Constitutional Rights on all sorts of levels gets a pass?!? Wow...we truly are frogs in a pot of water with slowly rising heat!

Here is what should have happened:
1). So called pro-choicers should have been reprimanded and should have apologized. That won't happen - cause they really aren't pro-choice if the choice is not abortion. That isn't news either. And a commercial that does not reference abortion, proves how evil and one-sided they truly are.
2). Audi stock should have taken a non-recoverable dive! Audi sells (which is still yet to be seen), should nearly stop. A boycott of that vehicle specifically and Audi in general should happen. Why? It is totally promoting unconstitutional actions endorsed by government! No matter how green.

We are so backwards that neither happened to extent it should have....really, if commercials are dreams (consider how unreal some were) then Audi may be Freddie Krueger.

CHINA WATCHES...

Is anyone else scared? A healthy fear...one that tells your brain, "change course, now!" - anyone?

The illustrious leaders in DC have requested and approved the debt ceiling increase of 2 Trillion dollars! Please note, we have spoken about a trillion dollars on our blog before - it is nearly unimaginable. For a refresher, please click this trillion dollar link!

According to an article I found (which looks toward 2009), 10.278 Trillion was projected for that year! At the time I write this word, we are at $12.634 Trillion! What further sobering thoughts as you fiddle around, read this blog and otherwise go about living in America....go to this clock and be wowed! Our debt to GDP is 86.6% and individually we carry $40, 067 in debt as "citizens" yet, as tax paying individuals (those paying taxes and not leeching off America) the burden is $113,147!

Now, I have my own debt - mostly my home and vehicle. I have to pay self-employed taxes and am waiting to see how much I get nailed with...but then, I am fine rendering to Caesar that which really is his. My problem is, $113,147 has to come from somewhere and I want to pay off my car and then my home....but, time is ticking and Uncle Sam is gonna come calling...

Are you getting it yet? Look back at the debt clock - what is the single biggest item RIGHT NOW that is sucking money away? Medicare/Medicaid OR GOVT HEALTH CARE! Can anyone look at that and truly believe that we can spend MORE on health care? It does not stop there either - look at the bottom: Social Security, Bush's Prescription Drug Deal, Liabilities!

Obama man, we cannot spend our way out of this. You give lip service well - this week you said that in our personal lives it is not wise to go and buy the boat when you cannot pay for the mortgage. Well, health care looks pretty close to a boat to me! Further, lets just have a lesson in what the American Government was designed to pay for: Defense/Protection, common good, and limited government.

Thanks to spending Presidents we have the "blessings" of everything from apple juice to War protection. Spelled out...that means roads, daycare, drugs, section 8 housing, metro transit, high speed rail....you name it! These should all remain in the private sector and the private section should be kept out of the government (ie. GE, Tide, etc). Who started hospitals in the first place...um, lets see....in OKC there is Baptist Hospital, Presbyterian, Mercy, St. Anthony...hmmm. Too bad they couldn't stay that way. I read the history of Baptist Hospital and it was moral issues that first shut the door on ministry related health provisions. Legal issues put the nail in the coffin. This is in very brief, but we did this to ourselves.

The true conservative answer to much of health care is to revise the system: 1). Allow nationalization of the health care providers, allowing someone in NY to purchase health care across state lines, if the provisions and premiums are better. This will force growth in the economy and challenge the providers to better themselves and ultimately bring the price of care to a reasonable level mandated by the market. 2). Put a stop to tort abuses. Doctors and care providers should be able to live to there potential without fear of legal ramification for errors beyond their control. 3). Remove the government - it is getting harder to keep their sworn oath, because of the limits that medicare/caid already put on them. 4). Allow coverage with pre-existing conditions. 5). Give tax credit for health care expenditures.

Bottom line of this article, as I close we are now over $75,000,000 more in debt. China is watching, they are an emerging giant in the financial world and they hold our debt. Hold long will they continue to give...and worse, how long till they take away? We should not be raising the ceiling, we should be eliminating pork spending of all kinds. Will it initially cost some jobs...sadly, probably yes. Will those jobs be replaced...YES, in the PRIVATE Sector! We must stop the bleeding - 2010 - has to be the year of a HUGE turn-around in America.

Knock, knock...
