A police officer in Jacksonville, Florida has quit his job after making a comment that he would volunteer if an order ever came down the line to assassinate President Barack Obama. The 57-year-old Florida cop told colleagues that if an order to kill Obama ever came in, that he "wouldn't mind being the guy." This is extremely disturbing news, that someone who is sworn to uphold and protect the laws would make such a comment, even if he intended it in jest or even if he despises Obama, which he apparently does.
After all, who wouldn't despise President Obama. He keeps working against the Republicans to make this country better, making sure that everyone gets insured so that they can get the proper medical care that they need and that they don't get dropped because they get too sick. Meanwhile, Michelle Obama now that the campaign is over, is right back on her previous circuit, including a recent appearance on the Nate Berkus Show, trying to get Americans to eat better and exercise and eliminate obesity in both children and adults. These two are certainly working hard to destroy this country.
The officer is now under investigation by the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office Integrity Unit. He apparently also told them that he wouldn't mind if a nuclear disaster killed everyone in the Northeast United States because of their support for Obama.

Now you see from the other side unfortunately I dont think you will use this as a learning tool like you should.
It does make you wonder how someone(if proven guilty), could say such a thing? He had to "know that he should set an example and be on the RIGHT side of the law... Isnt their motto" To Serve and Protect". Looks, like this man may have a screw out of place, and to think that he was allowed to carry a weapon... It is scary that someone like this was walking on the streets a free man... He could of tried to carry out such a dangerous remark....
My gawd people Obama and Hillary are praising Corsi!! Do they shower praises on the Prime Miniser of Israel who is our ally?? No! They are showering praises on Corsi the one man dictator which was wrought overnight. So THINK people. THINK. It is going to get worse in the nect four years. A lot of tempers will rise and, perhaps it could very well be closer to home.
And where, pray tell, can I go to find who these people are? I thought we settled this argument long ago when we forced President Nixon to resign.
...SC, you should know this... hmm, obviously a fraud.
Good God in Heaven some people are so naive that it beggars belief.
This country is in a crisis of epic porportions when it comes to health care. Millions are uninsured and if they have to go to the hospital, they ruin their credit because the bill goes on there. Millions cannot get insurance because of pre-existing conditions and millions more are dropped by their insurance if they get sick. Yes, I do believe that everyone will have health care, because they will be able to get insurance without paying a ridiculous premium, and they will be able to keep their insurance even after they get sick.
What I don't understand Mark-John K. is why you want all of those suffering people who have been dropped or can't get insurance and are in financial ruin because of medical bills to keep suffering.
Mrs. Obama is just doing the same thing the food pyramid charts and teachers in schools have been doing for decades, trying to get kids to eat healthy well balanced meals. I'm so amazed that fighting childhood obesity gets you insulted by Republicans.
Did you have a problem with childhood obesity? Do you know those who did? I have seen fat mothers with fat children. Now how did that child get so fat? I am sure it is not at McDonald s. Perhaps in the home?
No, sir; everyone will not have Insurance. More will suffer, not less. You've been sold a 'bill of goods.' Additionally, costs will skyrocket. You cannot ADD 40 Million people to anything, and delude yourself into believing that it will actually be less-costly. Only a deluded Keynesian Leftist could possibly believe such a Lie. But, then, you knew that, as well.
We know what the solution to the suffering is...but it doesn't fit the Leftist narrative.
Common sense, sir. Common sense.
Additionally, wake up; they've already begun banning. How cute it is that little Suzie can get an abortion without Parental Consent...but cannot get Fries with her Happy Meal.
You, also, haven't a clue what you are talking about.
There are your confused priorities...
You need to investigate a bit more. My wife and I have gone through this with his school, he's 14. He currently has gall bladder issues, so when he eats fresh salad, we always end up leaving work to go pick him up because he's throwing up. He was told that he HAD to try the salad. I had to talk to the school and tell them that they can't make him eat anything. I was told that he has to take it, but he doesn't have to eat it.
So all that's going on is the kids HAVE to take this 'healthy' food, but most of them don't eat it, so they throw it away.... Does this sound good to you?
We now just pack his lunch so he (and us) don't have to deal with any more liberal crap at his school.
Most of the rubbish being served, does, as you've said, end up in the bin. Now, School-Agers aren't eating enough...
Seems to me the hue and cry over the HRA is the exact same issue--requiring people to be responsible for themselves and at least offering an option to those who would otherwise be unable to participate in the commercial programs. Otherwise, those too broke to pay for private insurance might wind up being thrown in jail, where they would recieve two meals a day and free healthcare...a Republican nightmare if I ever heard one, unless all they really wanted was to get those folks out of sight so they could put them out of their mind.
The above paragraph is total nonsense but I wrote it to make a point--that we HAVE been down this road before, it's an old argument and all the fear-mongering is just noise from an anxiety-ridden Republican party on life support.
YOU ARE NOT FORCED TO DRIVE. DRIVING IS A PRIVILEGE. IF YOU CHOOSE TO ENGAGE IN THAT PRIVILEGE, YOU ALSO CHOOSE THAT THE PURCHASE OF INSURANCE COMES WITH THAT PRIVILEGE.
Wake up.
I'm sorry you don't seem to have a good understanding of ACA (Obamacare). While it's theory (everyone gets medical insurance) is sound, it's implementation is nothing but a pile of steaming crap. If you haven't thought about it or noticed, it's the middle class that gets hurt by this. My wife just received a raise finally, along with a 20% health premium increase due to ACA. Her net check is now LESS than before her raise. My premiums are due to go up 20% before the end of the year also. Yes, people can't get kicked off, pre-existing no longer matters, etc, etc. But along with gas prices (going down some, but still not good), grocery prices, utility prices, lack of raises/bonuses, on top of that my wife and I are losing more than $200 more a month now due to ACA. Also we have tax increases coming up, you really think that only the rich will have their taxes raised?
And don't get me started on moochelle's dietary 'rules'. For one thing, she obviously doesn't follow them. For my son's school to be telling me that he is ok on an 800 calorie diet is completely against what this country was founded on. I told the school to go get f*cked and he brown bags it now with plenty of food to keep an active 14 year old boy healthy. If moochelle wants to stop the obesity then just clamp on down on what people on food stamps can buy. I'm sick of seeing my tax dollars going to buy red bulls, chips, candy, twinkies (not for long), etc.
All in all, I'll tie this up with... . pull your liberal head out of your liberal ass.
Duh.
Do you honestly think that the insurance companies are just going to eat the cost of being forced to offer more coverage, the cost of more personnel to abide by regulations, etc? Private insurance companies are in business to make a profit. That added cost is going to be passed down to the consumer... the middle class employee.
My wife and I don't work at the same company, she has Blue Cross Regence, and Regence is the company that handles the paper work for my company.
My wife also works in the medical insurance industry, so she's very aware of what ACA does and doesn't do. Her company has spent the past year ramping up to abide by all the new regulations. Not a single person that works at her company likes ACA or supports it.
This is what I don't get about you liberals. I come to you with truth straight from real life occurances, and you still call it bs since it doesn't fall into your fantasy world.
Are you going to call bs also on the fact that as of Oct 1st, 7000 people in my county got added onto Medicaid, and as of Dec 1st, 13000 more are going to be eligible? Yet ACA doesn't increase the monies to the contracted companies that handle all this additional paperwork. The company has to hire more RN's to deal with the authorizations, and they get paid less than they did before. By the way, the population in my county is around 80k, so that's approximately a bit over a 1/3 with medical insurance on my tax dollars.
The hospital here in town is buying up any and every medical business they can right now. Why? Because their medicare/medicaid reimbursements are going down. Illegals are still going to use ER as a revolving door, those below 133% poverty level are still not required to have insurance, so can do the same. Those that are covered by the government are going to earn the hospital/doctors even less. The dramatically increased taxes on medical equipment is going to hit the hospitals/doctors. The outcome? The middle class pays even HIGHER bills when we have to go to the hospital.
If you liberals are unable to do the logic and math on all of this, then it's no wonder you support a party that is taking this country down.
The problem isn't right wing or left wing. It's our species.
