Do you feel the leaked information from a global warming alarmist organization is meaningful?



President Barack Obama says it's now up to the Senate to take the baton from the House and pass a bill aimed at overhauling the nation's health care system.

The House narrowly passed a health care bill Saturday night. The Senate has yet to schedule a debate on its version of health care legislation, and Republicans are pledging to stop the Democratic measure from passing Congress.

Obama gave a brief statement on the health care initiative in the Rose Garden on Sunday after returning from the presidential retreat at Camp David.

The president says he's confident the Senate will pass a health care bill. He assured senators they will join House members in looking back on the passage of health care reform as their finest moment in public service.

Utopianism (socialism/communism)
Utopianism (socialism/communism)
The Democrat party is the Utopianism party.
The Party members of course will enforce this dream of a Utopia (Heaven on Earth) by means of an economic tyranny. This is their fallacious Creed: Everyone is equal; therefore no one may own more than anyone else in order to have peace in their Utopia. Of course, the Party Members, the High Priests of Utopianism, are entitled to a little more wealth and perks than the proletariat because of all the study, preparation, conniving, scheming, and work that they must do in order preserve the Utopia from attack by the 20% of the people that make their Utopia function and know, at the same time, that they are being screwed by the Party Members.
Corollaries of the Utopian Doctrine (Religion)
1. Everyone is basically equal in the eyes of the State; therefore, ability and effort are not entitled to any special reward in terms of wealth (except Party Members)
2. Competition is to be de-emphasized in order that no one feels inferior.
3. Scholarships will be awarded according to the political needs of the State and not on the basis of ability.
4. Promotions and rewards in occupations will be distributed according to the needs of the State and not on the basis of individual ability and productivity.
5. Political speech will be regulated in order that the disturbing ideas of individualism, capitalism, competition, Christianity, Judaism, and other religions may not upset the tranquility of the Utopia. The exception to this rule is that Party Members may draw from non-party doctrines certain ideas that they deem of benefit to the State.
