A Scandal About Parental Rights Centered On Foley

U.S. News complains about the House ethics committee and it lack of action against Denis Hastert with these words

Once again the House ethics committee has failed to take a positive step in sending a clear message to the American people.

Instead, the bipartisan report on the Mark Foley scandal was a study in pitiful cowardice.

The committee recommended no penalty for anyone, including outgoing Speaker Dennis Hastert. The evidence was clear that Hastert and his aides knew that Foley's seamy conduct was open to further investigation.

They are half right in that evidence shows Hastert failed to act aggressively in taking care of the matter but other evidence implementing other members of both the Republican and Democrat caucuses existed that U.S. News does not mention.

Kolbe is described in a House Ethics Committee report as being too friendly towards the high-school-age pages, who serve as congressional interns.

The ethics report also faults Kolbe for not reading an inappropriate instant message sent by Foley to a former Arizona page who complained to Kolbe in 2001 about that matter.

It seems that Kolbe is a homosexual himself and may have allowed his sexual orientation to effect his judgment. He was probably looking at it as gay bashing and not pedophilia. Kobe is retiring and his handpicked replacement lost the primary to Randy Graf who was himself defeated in the general elections.

The third element of this situation is the Democrats such as Rahm Emanuel who knew about the situation in 2005 but did not release that information until it was political expedient. It seems that Emanuel like Hastert has a short memory for events when such would benefit him as he is on record as saying he did not know of the affair in question in 2005..

Kolbe resigned before the scandal broke and the Republican voters rejected his hand picked successor so not much could be done to him. Hastert loss his position in leadership which could also be considered a repercussion of the Foley scandal. Emanuel was persuaded by Nancy Pelosi from running for the Majority Whip but took the Democrat Caucus Chairman position as a consolation prize. Did these gentlemen suffer these repercussions for unrelated reasons or did God step in. I can not say since if God did step in he did not make his presence known where I can prove it.

There is probably more about this case than I have been able ascertain as this time.

Are The Blind Out To Oppress The Non Blind?

This is an update of an earlier post that I brought to you attention. U.S. District Judge James Robertson made a socialist ruling based on the Rehabilitation Act that mandates that treasury department has to change the currency of the United States to take in account the disability of blind individuals.

The lawsuit is clearly a way for the American Council of the Blind to get around our system of making changes in the government by bringing the courts into it. They state as much themselves with the following words from this article.

Christopher Gray, president of the council, said that while his group has been lobbying for changes to help the blind since 1995, the government has yet to conduct any feasibility studies of what those changes might cost. He said that during that time, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing has made several design changes to thwart counterfeiters.

The chances are good that the group went judge shopping before even submitting their lawsuit as that would be the actions of any half way competent attorney and from what I know there is nothing to stop them,

According to Tara Cortes, president of Lighthouse International, another advocacy group for the blind there are 1.3 million blind individuals in the U.S. and the number is expected to grow. That comes up to 43 individuals who are blind out of every 10,000 residents. These individuals are taxpayers and deserve that an tax expenditure in proportion to their numbers be made to accommodate their needs. That expenditure would be 43/100ths of a cent of each dollar spent. I don’t think anyone would object if 50/100ths of a cent of each dollar was spent on them.

The law in question is the Rehabilitation Act and it is constitutional as Congress can make laws regulating federal agencies. It prohibits discrimination on the basis of disabilities in programs conducted by the federal government. It does not mandate discrimination toward those who are not disabled so in order to prevent discrimination on both sides the Treasury should make sure that the blind get their 43/100th of a cent of every tax dollar worth of input into each currency design.

Standing For The Right To Life No Matter What

I am going to attempt to answer a difficult question which is whether your soul leaves your body when you are brain dead. Bain dead is when your brains suffers a catastrophic injury that leaves your brain with a persistent flat electroencephalogram reading but your body is still living and still trying to keep you alive as God designed it to do. It is also trying to either repair or circumvent the damage. It does not give up until true death.

God designed the human body very well and it can do amazing things to get over the abuse of this corrupt world. So the idea than you can not recover from being “brain dead is a complete myth.

Even when a region is so badly damaged the brain may use another region to replace its function and thus restore some semblance of use. This is called Neuroplasticity.

You can go from being non conscious to being conscious so the liberal theory that non consciousness means death is nonsense. Brain dead individuals are woken up after given sleeping pills.

There is little I know about the human body butit is enough to convince me those who support the "brain dead" theory are lying or are being fooled.

In addition science is making huge strides so that advances now account for miracles like having the blind see. One experiment is with rodents where their sight is restored by nanotechnology. Another experiment has transferred new neurons generated in one part of the brain and plugged them into the brain in another where they began working.

These organ donors are in scant supply while the demand while the demand for their organs keep going up. There is a lot of money involved in this industry and that is most likely one motivation for the deception.

The doctors may see it as a triage decision where they are sacrificing one human who might recover to some extent from the damage for several others whose life might be saved by his or her organs. The family members on the other hand are being deceived and making the call because they believe their loved one is dead or because they figure it is better to be dead than disabled.

I am a kidney disease patient and face the choice whether to have one of these people who have their own families and friends killed for my personal benefit. I do not have that right whether the Government said so or not and my God condemns the actions of those who would do or condone such a terrible deed.
