To Ms. Chilli : The "O" stands for "OVER" as at the end of a radio transmission where the person transmitting ends his or her transmission with the statement OVER to let the person receiving know that his or her transmission has ended.

Thanks for commenting on my blog. Also many thanks to those who have become followers. I have not posted new blogs lately as I have been busy helping my wife get through surgery. However I will start up again soon. Again, thanks for your time and energy in reading my blog and commenting on them.

Never in My Wildest Deams

Just read in the paper about a right wing politician saying that if Obama's health plan passes the U.S.A. will have a mini-revolution.

WTFO- Not in my wildest dreams did I ever think that I would see this much hullabaloo over an issue. I guess that is why all the right wingers are arming themselves at an alarming rate. What are they going to do bomb more government buildings (Tim McVeigh style)? It is sad to think that we must rattle swords instead of having a debate about ideas. I have not heard one idea from the right except NO WE CANT.

Small business and large corporations are fighting the health plan tooth and nail. Can't Rush Limbaugh's and other republican followers figure out that they are fomenting and promoting violence against innocent people just to keep from spending their money? It is true that they would take the pennies off a dead mans eyes just so they could have bigger houses, nicer cars and more power. In fact, sadly, most owners and heads of businesses large or small think that the common laborer and working man is just ignorant and stupid.

He who is given much is obliged to give much!

Great article in the New York Times about a conservative attorney who is going to sue California (and may be heard by the Supreme Court) over the voters decision to not allow gay persons to marry. 

WTFO? Sounds pretty plausible to me. I could never figure out how such a ban could in any way be constitutional. I do not think anyone has a right to prevent two people from entering a legal contract which is what a civil marriage is. There is really nothing biblical about a civil marriage. Just because some people put all this religious significance on it does not make it a religious event. People of "FAITH" who follow their religion should have no problem with civil marriage between consenting adults. However, it seems as though even if we are religious and righteous, as humans, we have an awful time living up to religious standards set for any religion. So we should not cast the first stone lest it come back to haunt us!

Today I read in the news of a person who the paper claimed to be a "right wing" blogger. According to the newspaper article, he advocated in his blog that three federal judges be killed. The paper article further stated that the blogger posted photos of the judges and and a map showing the courthouse where they work. The map noted specifically the arrangement of the anti-bomb barriers at the courthouse. He was arrested by the FBI and is now awaiting trial for threatening the judges.

I'm sure that that this case will assuredly be heard as a freedom of speech case by the U. S. Supreme Court if the blogger is convicted.

WTFO? What in the constitution gives the blogger the right to post photos of the judges and depict bomb barriers? His actions certainly may encourage unbalanced people in our society to take some horrible action that might well kill the judges and probably many innocent people as well. Does the constitution allow one to advocate the killing of anyone for their decisions?
