A couple of days ago I wrote briefly about the National Data Hub which is being set up in Obamacare, this hub will dwarf anything the NSA is doing. Here is some of the personal information which will be made available to government employees:
The massive, centralized database will include comprehensive personal information such as income and financial data, family size, citizenship and immigration status, incarceration status, social security numbers, and private health information. It will compile dossiers based on information obtained from the IRS, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Defense, the Veterans Administration, the Office of Personnel Management, the Social Security Administration, state Medicaid databases, and for some reason the Peace Corps.
This is being called what could possibly be “the largest consolidation of personal data in the history of the republic.” So who is the Obama regime going to entrust will all of your personal information? According to this story the regime is planning to hire thousands of lower-level government employees, known as patient navigators, to handle this task.
We are being told that steps will be taken to ensure the security of our personal information. One of the steps being taken will be a required online course for all applicants, but what will not be required of the applicants? Neither a criminal background check nor a high school diploma.
What could possibly go wrong when the people who will have access to our social security number, financial records, tax returns, and healthcare records do not even have to prove they have never committed identity theft in the past? Ask Christine O’Donnell or Mitt Romney for both have already had their tax records illegally accessed before this Data Hub was created, it will only get worse from here.
The right to privacy will be all but gone once this is enacted. Big Brother is watching, but in this case it is even worse because we do not know who Big Brother is or what their backgrounds are.
There really is a Utopia in the United States!
While on vacation this week the family traveled to Six Flags in Agawam, Massachusetts and much to my surprise we discovered Utopia.
It looks like the liberals were right, Utopia does exist and doesn’t it look wonderful!? Sorry, this was just too good to pass up!
John McCain praises Barack Obama’s “Trayvon” race speech, claims we need to reconsider ‘stand your ground’ laws
Today John McCain’s lips were firmly attached to Barack Obama’s rear end when he went on record as agreeing with the president that America is still a racist country with a long road to haul before we right the wrongs of 150+ years ago.
Barack Obama used his first public comments on the Zimmerman verdict to throw gasoline on the fire by legitimizing the escalating riots when he could have used that opportunity to call for unity and calm across the nation. And today John McCain praised him for it by calling the speech “very impressive” and stating America still had a long way to go in regards to race relations because “old prejudices die hard.”
He claimed that America was too optimistic in believing the election of Barack Obama would solve America’s race problems, but he forgets that it was Barack Obama who purposely ran a reelection campaign designed to divide Americans by race, sex, class, and sexual orientation in the first place. Barack Obama could have unified the country but he chose to be a divider for political reasons and John McCain has fallen into his trap.

If you thought the NSA spying scandal was bad enough, and it is, you ain’t seen nuttin yet. We will soon look upon the days when only the NSA was spying on us as the good ole days.
With Obamacare set to kick in in full force we are about to give away the last of our privacy rights.
there is increasing concern in Congress over something called the Federal Data Services Hub. The Data Hub is a comprehensive database of personal information being established by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to implement the federally facilitated health insurance exchanges. The purpose of the Data Hub, according to a June 2013 Government Accountability Office (GAO) report, is to provide “electronic, near real-time access to federal data” and “access to state and third party data sources needed to verify consumer-eligibility information.” In these days of secret domestic surveillance by the intelligence community, rogue IRS officials and state tax agencies using private information for political purposes, and police electronically logging every license plate that passes by, the idea of the centralized Data Hub is making lawmakers and citizens nervous.
They certainly should be; the potential for abuse is enormous. The massive, centralized database will include comprehensive personal information such as income and financial data, family size, citizenship and immigration status, incarceration status, social security numbers, and private health information. It will compile dossiers based on information obtained from the IRS, the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of Defense, the Veterans Administration, the Office of Personnel Management, the Social Security Administration, state Medicaid databases, and for some reason the Peace Corps. The Data Hub will provide web-based, one-stop shopping for prying into people’s personal affairs.
If you still think Obamacare was designed to help those who cannot afford healthcare insurance obtain coverage think again, because this is, and always has been, about providing a means for the government to get its greedy little hands on the last privacy rights sill enjoyed by the people.
On July 6th of this year I posted the latest ‘Afterburner’ video by Bill Whittle and at that time I stated that it might be his best video to date, and it might have been, but it has surely be eclipsed by his latest ‘Afterburner’ video on the lynching of George Zimmerman.
There is nothing I can add to what Bill Whittle says in this video so here it is:
Immigration reform: Apparently Republicans need to pass the bill to find out what is in it
We all remember the now infamous words of then Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, during the Obamacare debate when she made the stunning statement about needing to pass the bill to find out what was in it.
We all remember the scorn, contempt, and ridicule such an outrageous statement drew from many on the right as the blogoshpere exploded. Eventually Ms. Speaker got her way, the bill was passed and now we are learning what is in it. But it cost her the Speakership and it cost the Democrats the majority in the House–a majority they still have not been able to win back.
Surely no Democrat and no Republican will utter such a statement publicly again but that doesn’t mean they are above passing legislation without knowing what is in it.
This time it is the Republicans who have no idea what is in the bill they are promoting as must-pass legislation. Did you know that the immigration reform legislation would change the United States Code to allow the forging of two passports before a crime is committed? Neither did John McCain or Marco Rubio, and they wrote the bill.
I promised myself that I would not write about this issue again, but what Barack Obama said today was so outrageous I cannot let it go without comment, so here goes:
Earlier today Barack Obama stepped in front of the cameras and the microphones with the perfect opportunity to stem the tide of racial violence which has been escalating in the aftermath of the Zimmerman verdict and instead he decided to fan the flames.
He transformed Trayvon Martin from the son he never had into himself when he stated Traynon “could have been me 35 years ago.” Once again personalizing an issue he has no business in, but that was not the worst of what he said in my opinion because he also opined: “If a white male teen would have been involved in this scenario both the outcome and the aftermath might have been different.” He basically condemned the whole system as racist and then went on to say these issues are never going to go away. (And if he has his way they won’t.)
Back on July 5th of this year America’s Watchtower published a post entitled ‘Benghazi: Where is Col. George Bristol?’ I was not alone in asking this question, in fact this was the question being asked by some Republicans who wanted him to testify on the Benghazi terrorist attack.
The official answer Congressional Republicans who are investigating the Benghazi scandal got from the Pentagon was that he had retired and because of this he could not be compelled to testify in front of the Congress.
There is one small problem with this, it turns out not be be quite true. While, yes, he is retiring, no, he has not yet retired. He is still on active duty and will remain so until the end of July.
This was a blatant attempt by the Pentagon to deceive those who are investigating this scandal, as well as an attempt to delay the inquiries until after Colonel Bristol was actually retired, at which point he could not be compelled to testify, and they were caught red-handed. With roughly only two weeks to go before Colonel Bristol is retired it almost worked, it is time for the Republicans to call an emergency hearing and drag him in to testify before it is too late.
Benghazi: A Congressman claims survivors of the attack were forced to sign a non-disclosure statement
Those of us who still care about the terrorist attack in Benghazi on September 11th, 2012 which left Chris Stevens, Glenn Doherty, Sean Smith, and Tyrone Woods dead, and those of us who feel that yes, it does make a difference why these people were allowed to be slaughtered by the United States government, have had a question on our minds for some time: Where are 30 or so survivors from the attack? We know they are out there somewhere but they have not testified.
If Congressman Frank Wolf is correct we may have our answer, they may have been forced not to testify:
“On Tuesday I raised the question of why none of the Benghazi survivors, whether State Department, CIA, or private security contract employees have testified publicly before Congress,” said Wolf.
“According to trusted sources that have contacted my office, many if not all of the survivors of the Benghazi attacks along with others at the Department of Defense, the CIA have been asked or directed to sign additional non-disclosure agreements about their involvement in the Benghazi attacks. Some of these new NDAs, as they call them, I have been told were signed as recently as this summer.”
The survivors have had to sign non-disclosure forms and as such are not allowed to testify about what happened on that deadly night. These people were on the ground during the attack and they have more of a grasp on what happened that night than do the people in the Obama regime who decided to stand down during the attack and you would think that the regime would relish the opportunity to get a first-hand account of what happened if they were not complicit, but of course the last thing this regime wants is a first-hand account of what happened to be made available to the American people because they know what happened, and why, and they have been trying to cover it up for months now.
