Never on Sunday!


On a Sun-day? Dies Solis?
All this news on a "slow news day"?

That's way too much distraction for a day such as this?

I'm overwhelmed by the amount of conflicting headlines that coincide with the "pivotal" day for the Health Care Overhaul. This is no accident. We are experiencing a coordinated information overload week-end. All of the sudden it's as if the whole face is full of pimples, and all at once they are coming to a head, ready to burst.

Why would there be an incident where racial slurs were used to refer to black activists, yesterday in the capital? Why were there anti homosexual epithets used against Barney Frank during the same "confrontation"?

Nuns have come out of the wood work to disagree with the U.S. Conference of Bishops about abortions included in the Health Care Overhaul legislation. Now that adds a new dimension to the distorted big picture that Washington D.C. has become for this "key" week-end.

Just what are these Catholic clericals doing in the headlines? Are we in Brazil or Mejico, now? Is this now a Catholic country? (Pelosi praying to St. Joseph on Friday, etc.) I guess we have become a third world country. When Catholic priests and nuns are considered part of the government; It's a banana republic. Viva the district of Columbia!

I'm Hispanic; But, what are illegal aliens and their defenders doing protesting? Especially on a day like today? Are they crazy or did someone put them up to this? ACORN might be gone, but, la republica banana is alive and well.

What's this? Gimme' a green card, or you life? In your face demands for residence cards?

I can understand why the Tea Partiers are demonstrating ; But what are illegal aliens doing in Washington demonstrating? At the Capitol building?

On top of all these abnormal circumstances we have Bernanke the Fed Chair with his 2 cents, and the IMF urging countries to use financial discretion. What are these people doing talking complex money issues on a Sunday? By the way Bernake is not a federal employee; the Fed is as federal as Federal Express.

Lastly, Obama has come out with a Executive Order on abortions. An executive order at the 11th hour? Is this to cater to the Nuns? This is beginning to look more serious than meets the eye. I'm not for abortions, however, Rowe vs. Wade will be swept away by a stroke of the president's left hand?

All these strange machinations and coincidences are very troubling.

The only thing that was missing from this strange week-end in Washington was Tiger Woods having a press conference on the Capitol steps...

This working week-end for Health Care Overhaul is overwhelmingly suspicious to me.

How about all the back-room democrat only maneuvering? This isn't democratic!

This is a humongous power grab that frankly concerns most Americans that care about their freedom.

This is the strangest day I've ever seen in the political arena; This may be the wave of the future: Working 7 days a week until the prez passes an executive order giving people a day off.

Arsenio.
