Logic reviews the movies: Act of Valor



An unprecedented blend of real-life heroism and original film making, Act of Valor stars a group of active-duty U.S. Navy SEALS in a fictionalized account inspired by true events.
Any hero worship given them is well deserved. Through the use of active duty Navy SEALS and helmet cameras, Act of Valor produces insanely realistic action. It also leaves one incredibly humbled by their selflessness, heroism and patriotism. This is not a simplistic movie that romanticizes war. Rather, it helps one reestablish proper perspective. Have every day stress on your life? Really? You will leave the theater fully aware that there are bigger and much worse things that could really “wreck your day!”

You should go see this movie, yes- YOU! Send the anti-American Hollywood limousine liberals a message: No more mind numbing “Jersey Shore” or “Housewife's” of where ever. Let us celebrate the “land of the free” and “the home of the brave” and pay homage to the best of America. Freedom isn't free and SEALS are on the point of the spear, worldwide, each and every day. An enormous “thank you for your service”.

"Sure I am this day we are masters of our fate, that the task which has been set before us is not above our strength; that its pangs and toils are not beyond our endurance. As long as we have faith in our own cause and an unconquerable will to win, victory will not be denied us." ~ Outside a SEAL Training Facility, by Sir Winston Churchill.

Democracy



"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves generous gifts from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.
The average age of the world's greatest civilizations from the beginning of history, has been about 200 years.
During those 200 years, these nations always progressed through the following sequence: from bondage to spiritual faith; from spiritual faith to great courage; from courage to liberty; from liberty to abundance; from abundance to selfishness; from selfishness to complacency; from complacency to apathy; from apathy to dependency; from dependency back again to bondage."
--Attributed to Scottish History Professor at University of Edinburgh Sir Alexander Fraser Tytler (1747-1813)

What it’s Like To Be on a Bombing Raid

"36 minutes long and gives you a pretty good taste of what it was like to fly into the heat of a battle, drop your load and go home."

Certainly worth watching such heroic behavior.

Best Political Cartoon Ever!

The United States Senate has not passed a budget since April 29, 2009.




Perhaps there is a connection between a Budget and just passing continuing spending resolutions....yea, perhaps.

Obama’s Model of National Healthcare is Failing in the UK

http://tinyurl.com/88x9x2y

NHS_cartoon1Democrats have been pushing for national health care long before Obama took office.  Clinton tried to push a package through congress when she, err I mean he, was president, but it failed to pass through congress.
In 2007, liberal whacko film maker, Michael Moore released his cult documentary Sicko, in which he clearly advocated that the United Kingdom’s National Health Service was the best example of socialized medicine in the world and that the US needed to follow suit.
Obama wasted no time in pushing for a nationalized health program along with the aid of Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.  They threw out so many facts, figures and examples that they had no clue what they were saying or even what was in the Affordable Care Act.  Remember Nancy Pelosi famous statement, “We have to pass this thing so we can find out what’s in it.”
They constantly used the British National Health Service and Canada’s programs as the model examples we needed to follow.  Obama seemed to be on the verge of becoming a British citizen because of how he promoted their ways and their health system and told us that we need to follow their example.
The United Kingdom has been waking up to the realization that national health care just does not work.  Over the past couple of years, they have seen the financial burden of providing health care to a grateful nation.  They have been forced to reduce coverage and care on many of the less serious afflictions.
In the latest news, British Prime Minister David Cameron has announced that they are looking in the possibility of outsourcing some of the NHS coverage to private health care providers.  They watched the Greek government financially meltdown which was partially due to all of the entitlements that went to the people and the British leaders are wanting to avoid a similar disaster.
The British have been down the street of national health care, didn’t like what they saw and are now looking at making a U-turn.  In the meantime, the Obama administration is completely blind to the model they followed and instead of slowing down to avoid the same dangers; they are rapidly picking up speed.  And from what most experts can see, the end of the road is nothing but complete disaster and destruction.
Yes Mr. President, perhaps we should look more closely to the model health care program you so vehemently held up as your shining example.  It hasn’t worked for them and it’s not working for us.
