Millionaire Rush Limbaugh Says U.S. Health Care System Is ‘Just Dandy’ For The Rich

~

"...and it was not the pig flu, either, oink, oink..."

"Earlier this week, Rush Limbaugh was rushed to a hospital in Hawaii after he complained of chest pains and had reportedly been taken from his hotel “in serious condition.”

Queen’s Medical Center in Honolulu released Limbaugh yesterday and during a press conference, the conservative radio host said his physicians did not know what caused his symptoms.

“I wish I knew what it was,” he said. Limbaugh also denied that he is again taking painkillers and praised the U.S. health care system based on his experience:

“The treatment I received here was the best that the world has to offer,” Limbaugh said. “Based on what happened here to me, I don’t think there’s one thing wrong with the American health care system. It is working just fine, just dandy.”……

Of course Rush would probably think any health system is “just dandy,” mainly because he is a multi-millionaire and can afford the best health care wherever he might be.

But this is not the case for tens of millions of Americans who are unable to afford care or insurance due to the rising costs of health care in the U.S.

Mayo Clinic in Arizona to Stop Treating Some Medicare Patients

~

The Mayo Clinic, praised by President Barack Obama as a national model for efficient health care, will stop accepting Medicare patients as of tomorrow at one of its primary-care clinics in Arizona, saying the U.S. government pays too little.

More than 3,000 patients eligible for Medicare, the government’s largest health-insurance program, will be forced to pay cash if they want to continue seeing their doctors at a Mayo family clinic in Glendale, northwest of Phoenix, said Michael Yardley, a Mayo spokesman.

Banks To Bombard Customers With New Fees In 2010

~

Banks Roll Out New Check, Card Fees


The nation's banks will be bombarding customers with new fees and products in 2010 as they try to replace more than $50 billion in revenue wiped out by new rules that clamp down on certain business practices.

So far, the changes are mostly concentrated in checking accounts and credit cards.

In addition to attaching new fees to old products, banks are introducing new types of accounts that they hope will reel in new customers and reduce their funding costs.

For plastic, the new rules go into effect in February as part of the Credit Card Act of 2009. The rules will limit some interest-rate increases, require more disclosure to customers and prohibit banks from raising interest rates on current balances unless a customer is at least 60 days behind in a payment.

Cop tased man 11 times while he had diabetic seizure

"Hey, hit him again, he's not moving. He's no fun if he's not moving."

A suburban Chicago police officer Tasered a man 11 times while he was having a diabetic seizure, and the 56 seconds of needlessly inflicted electric shock, “inflicted … while he was lying unresponsive on the floor of his bedroom, permanently scarred [him] and caused him neurological damage that has not abated,” the man claims in Chicago Federal Court.

Full-Body Scanners to Fry Travelers With Radiation

~

This is what frequent flyers will feel like pretty soon. Making me hungry.

Virtually all passengers and airline crews who pass through airport screening checkpoints in the U.S. may soon be forced to submit to compulsory, whole-body X-ray exposure.

Some fliers could be “fried” several times in one day.

Frequent fliers could get hit hundreds of times each year. Pregnant women, infants, the chronically ill and immune suppressed would get the rays. Grateful herds of traveling livestock, prodded by TSA drovers through federally-funded “nuke chutes,” are expected to believe Hollowell’s scientifically unsupported assertion that ionizing radiation delivered via backscatter will be “about the same as sunshine.”

Wear glasses when cleaning your tarantula cage

~

Seems the young man who owned the tarantula was cleaning his pet's cage when the spider decided he wasn't happy with the cleaning service. The tarantula then rubbed his hind legs against his abdomen, which released a cloud of the hairs. The hairs are tiny hairs which are barbed at the end and are apparently used as a defense.

Three weeks later, the gentleman went to the Ophthalmology Clinic because of persistent redness, watering and poor vision in his eye. When examined, the conjunctiva (white of the eye) was red, and the cornea (clear part of the eye) had "scattered white spots".

Though the examination initially looked like a viral infection of the eye, when they looked at the eye with a magnifying instrument, they found "fine, hairlike projections" in the cornea. The hairs were too small to be removed from his eyes.

Iraqis express dismay over Blackwater ruling

~

Victims of a 2007 shooting by American security guards in Baghdad say it's clear to them the U.S. government considers Iraqi blood cheap.



Little trace was left of the September 2007 day when Blackwater security guards opened fire on the crowded intersection, killing 17 civilians.

On Thursday, a judge in a U.S. federal court had thrown out the criminal prosecution of five Blackwater guards involved in the shootings.

The consequences of that decision were still being felt Friday by survivors of the attack, politicians and ordinary Iraqis, who expressed feelings of helplessness at the hands of the United States.

The Iraqi government vowed to seek an appeal. Victims and others said they doubted they would ever see justice, convinced the American government considers their blood cheap.

How many people die from being tasered by police?

~

"He didn't say 'uncle'. Shoot him again! If he wants to play, he's gotta say 'uncle'."

Between June 2001 and June 2007, there were at least 245 cases of deaths of subjects soon after having been shocked using Tasers.

Of these cases:

In 7 cases, medical examiners said Tasers were a cause or a contributing factor or could not be ruled out as a cause of death.

In 16 cases coroners and other officials stated that a Taser was a secondary or contributory factor of death.

In dozens of cases, coroners cited excited delirium as cause of death. Excited delirium has been questioned as a medical diagnosis. (Taser manufacturers have created their own illness to cover their butts)

Several deaths occurred as a result of injuries sustained in struggles.

In a few of these cases head injury due to falling after being shocked contributed to later death.

Some police departments, like that of Clearwater, Florida, have tried to eradicate such incidents by prohibiting taser use when the suspect is in danger of falling.

A study published by the American Journal of Cardiology found that California police departments that introduced Tasers experienced significant increases in the numbers of in-custody sudden deaths and firearm deaths in the first full year following deployment.

The rates declined to predeployment levels in subsequent years. No significant change in the number of officer injuries was found. (Means the department learned to fudge the numbers.)

Federal court restricts Taser use by police

~

"Give me liberty or taser me to death!"

A federal appeals court this week ruled that a California police officer can be held liable for injuries suffered by an unarmed man he Tasered during a traffic stop.

The decision, if allowed to stand, would set a rigorous legal precedent for when police are permitted to use the weapons and would force some law enforcement agencies throughout the state -- and presumably the nation -- to tighten their policies governing Taser use, experts said.

***********************

The taser industry will spend millions to overturn this decission. Cops and tasers will win - peasants will loose.

Was NW bomber suspect a Manchurian Candidate?

~

The Christmas day Northwest Airlines flight scare has made top headlines and brought fear once again into the hearts of many passengers. Yet bizarre evidence has arisen from many quarters raising serious questions about what really happened on this strange flight.

Could this man have been a Manchurian Candidate?

CNN News has provided some of the best coverage of the many questions around this bizarre tale. A December 28th CNN News broadcast begins with this comment,

"So, just how did a guy on a terror watch list with a one-way ticket paid for in cash, with no luggage, a man who has been barred from Britain, informed on by his own father, how did this guy manage to board a U.S. airliner and allegedly try to blow it to pieces?"

'CIA, FBI paranoid about Israel's secret service Mossad'

~

A former US official has said that both the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) are extremely paranoid about the Israeli secret service Mossad and Jews, and adds that the charges of espionage against US Defense Department scientist Stewart Nozette reflect this fear and "extreme view".

These fears against Israel, former AIPAC staffer Steve Rosen tells The Jerusalem Post, could harm US-Israel relations.

"One of the things that our case revealed is the very extreme views that are held by some in counter-intelligence agencies of the CIA and FBI about Israel," Rosen said.

"They believe that the Mossad spied on the US on a huge scale and they believe that the Pollard case was the tip of some sort of iceberg," he added.
