Dr.(?) Allen Unruh – Keep Digging that hole

Who says you can’t drink yourself to sobriety?

The guy who claims cracking backs makes him a ‘Medical Doctor’ is spreading more of his neo-con bullshit. Normally, this would upset me, but I see it as the Republicans just digging themselves a deeper hole. Keep it coming.

Let’s put this money in perspective. The average American earns almost $33,000 a year. To make a billion dollars, he or she would have to work 31,000 years.

Unless you run two bogus non-profits you earn about $250,000 a year.

A trillion dollars laid end to end would reach 96 million miles.

Have you been talking to John Thune?

If you are elderly, be afraid. Proponents of this socialized scheme are long on fear and short on facts. Hidden in this “must-pass” piece of legislation is a provision that rations health care and makes it likely that older people will be left to suffer or die.

Yup, spread more fear instead of offering solutions. That’s what you are good at. I think you are afraid because socialized medicine will not include the quackery you practice.

Health care decisions will not be made by doctors or patients. They will be made by bureaucrats with formulas based on your age and whether treatment will cure your problem.

Apparently Allen has a crystal ball. He knows how legislation is going to be written, before it is written. Well if it is the crystal ball he used to predict the outcome of the abortion vote, I wouldn’t worry too much about his warnings. In fact the only thing the Obama administration is suggesting is streamlining your medical records, something Gore suggested when he was running for office 8 years ago. Something that would save us billions in insurance costs every year.

Winston Churchill said, “Thinking we can spend our way out of debt is like thinking an alcoholic can drink himself into sobriety.”

Actually that’s possible, but with sobriety comes death. Ever seen ‘Leaving Las Vegas’?

Ben Franklin said, “He who would trade freedom for security will end up with neither.”

Funny you use that quote Allen, ever hear of ‘Freedom to choose’? Must have escaped you.

More government is the problem, not the solution.

I would have to agree, but the problem with the best 8 years there was NO government, and now we have to make up for lost time.

The solution, according to hundreds of top economists, is to allow all taxpaying Americans to keep more of what they work for. It’s that simple.

So are you saying Allen, you agree with Obama? He has given 90% of Americans a tax cut in the latest stimulus, and 98% of small businesses.

Allen, are you trying to trick us again like your wife did with all the mumbo jumbo she was spreading about abortion? You sneaky little devil.

And you thought South Dakota has the advantage when it comes to crazy legislators

Has Senator Hunt infiltrated the North Dakota Capital?

NO more. North Dakota is full of all kinds of Roger Hunts. I am on the Planned Parenthood email list. I usually read the emails, shake my head, than delete. But today’s email caught my attention. Whoa Nelly;

Dear Friends:

I am writing today to alert you about a bill advancing in the North Dakota Legislature that is specifically crafted to challenge Roe v. Wade and that poses a very serious threat to women’s health and reproductive rights.

HB 1572, which defines a fertilized egg as a person, was passed Tuesday in the North Dakota House by a vote of 51-41. It now goes to the Senate for debate.

The two-paragraph-long bill says that a human being “includes any organism with the genome of homo sapiens.”

If HB1572 passes the Senate and is signed by the governor, the implications are huge:

• It would ban abortion.
• It would outlaw some forms of birth control.
• It would prohibit medical procedures that affect a fertilized egg, including treatment for cancer, tubal pregnancies, and infertility.
• It would mire North Dakota in drawn-out, expensive legal battles.
• It would force a showdown over Roe v. Wade.

The Planned Parenthood Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota Action Fund is on the ground in North Dakota, rallying our supporters and testifying in the Legislature against this bill – doing everything we can to prevent it from passing – and we need your help. Your gift to the Action Fund today will support our work advocating for reproductive rights in the state legislature.

We’re not the only ones who have noticed this bill – it has also garnered significant media coverage. The Associated Press, CNN, AFP, MSNBC, the Drudge Report, Fox News, Huffington Post, Feministing, and dozens of regional newspapers including the Star Tribune, Fargo Forum and Grand Forks Herald all have carried news of the bill. Here are some links:

We will continue to be vigilant in fighting this legislation. Stay tuned, and thank you, as always, for your support.

As most scientists, biologists, doctors, ob-gyns, rational people, etc, etc agree; a fertilized egg MUST attach to the uterus to grow into a fetus and than a human being. If this law passes it basically says any matter floating around the general vaginal area is a human being.

Man, and you thought the crazies were in Pierre!

Well we should have saw this coming a mile away

Not only do I think we can fix our tax problems in SD with a 35% property tax decrease (so I can sell more real estate of course) but we need more anti-choice legislation on the books.” Sen. Howie

What SD Legislative session wouldn’t be complete without some good old fashion abortion legislation;

Today several SD lawmakers introduced Senate Bill 92 which would require abortion doctors to be available in the city for consultation one day prior to performing an abortion.

Huge thanks to State Senator Gordon Howie and colleagues for introducing SB 92.
