MARCH 2010 TUESDAY MARCH 9, 2010 12:01 AM (PT) 12:01 AM (PT) The interview with Dr. Jerome Corsi will repeat on the stream until tomorrow's show and you can download the file anytime at MyStreamingServer.com. Jerry thinks Obamacare will pass because the White House will do whatever it takes to force it. That might explain Rep. Massa's demise. If he was willing to vote for it, would he have had to resign? As if you didn't know, the answer is: absolutely no way would he have been outed if he played along. Here's what he had to say about it. You might also want to read Jerry's current article on the hypocrisy of those who demonize citizens demanding proof of Obama's past. The same "those" who demanded McCain provide such proof in '08. Speaking of McCain, he's pulled his support for the bill he co-authored which would decimate dietary supplements. (S.3002 The Dietary Supplement Safety Act - DSSA). But while he's leaving alone your right to vitamins and minerals as you see fit, he's threatening your constitutional rights with The Enemy Belligerent Interrogation Detention and Prosecution Act of 2010. It sounds as bad as it is. McCain and Lieberman concocted this atrocity We didn't have time to go over a myriad of other things I wanted to share with you but that's why we're on every weeknight. We'll pick it up where we left off tonight at 7. A couple things before we go though: Sad to note the passing of Ron Banks, a founding member of The Dramatics. Laughing about this bio-hazard crime-- where a woman squirted a deputy in the face with her breast milk direct from the source. Yeah, it's come to this. MONDAY MARCH 8, 2010 6:50 PM (PT) We'll spend the first couple hours of the show with Dr. Jerome Corsi. Jerry has a better handle on what's really going on in the Obama administration than most anyone else. His research is impeccable and all of it is annotated in his books which remain the definitive argument settlers. "America For Sale" (click on it for a good price from Amazon) is a perfect example. For regularly updated info, you might want to subscribe to Jerry's Red Alert newsletter. You can bet we'll talk about Oama's waterloo-- healthcare as well a America's swan song-- the economy. We'll take your calls in the 2nd hour too. Third hour, open lines and I'm got plenty to talk about. FRIDAY MARCH 5, 2010 10:30 PM (PT) Trivia answers and Bumper Stumpers are up (under Trivia and Music, respectively, to your left). The interview with GNP Crescendo's Neil Norman will stream all weekend and is also available for download at MyStreamingServer.com. And I'll be back Monday with plenty of things that will undoubtedly depress you, so in the meantime have an uplifting and safe weekend. FRIDAY MARCH 5, 2010 12:01 AM (PT) We'll talk to Neil Norman of GNP Crescendo Records (the label his dad Gene started many decades ago). Neil's passion is music for science fiction movies and television shows. He's got quite the resume to that end-- including being able to play the theremin (an instrument you play by being near-- you don't touch it). So we'll have a good time in the first hour. After that, 2 hours of trivia and I'm ready for you. So do your part and call! We talked with Venus Andrecht earlier (the show is up for download at MyStreamingServer.com). I'm attracted to her personality and sincerity and I believe her infectious nature is the real deal. Check out her Flow Mojo Show if you haven't and catch her Dear Venus radio show too.

The Canadian government wants citizens to pay taxes on their earnings from Earl Jones. Sounds reasonable? Then you don't realize that Earl Jones is Canada's Bernie Madoff. He's serving 11 years for bilking investors out of millions and now those investors, some penniless, are being taxed for their not-gotten gains. Something's wrong here. Speaking of wrong, you might take issue with Sean David Morton's investment offer. The SEC certainly is. Their complaint, here, says he's not a psychic and the statements he made aren't true. Then there's the issue of the money. They want him to return it all to the investors who believed what they heard from the frequent Coast to Coast guest. While we're on the subject of fraud, it's horrifying to think of the ramifications of this, but some investors are finding that the gold bars they've purchased from bonded warehouses are counterfeit. So you don't understand how doctors can go broke if Medicare lowers its reimbursement rates? This doctor lays it out. Got an email after talking about it from Karen R. who protested saying that she has to pay the difference. Not exactly. Here's the deal. When your doctor agrees to take Medicare, he agrees to receive the allowable reimbursement amount for what he charges. For instance, if he bills a patient $100 for a visit and Medicare says the allowable reimbursement amount for that visit is $70, he agrees to $70 being his total compensation for his $100 bill. Medicare then reimburses him at the rate of 80% of the allowable amount which, in the case of our $70 example, would be $56. The patient would be responsible for the remaining 20% which is $16, not the $44 difference between what he billed and what Medicare allowed. The doctor would have to eat the $30 difference between the allowable charges and his actual bill. So when Medicare reimbursement rates fall, the doctor has no recourse to reclaim the difference. It is gross dollars going out the window against fixed expenses and for many physicians, it's not enough to keep their doors open. Do electromagnetic fields really adversely affect your health? The verdict isn't remotely near in. Take vitamins? There's a good chance they're totally useless within a week of you opening the bottle. THURSDAY MARCH 4, 2010 12:10 AM (PT) In this economy many of us have to wonder what's coming next? Who better to ask than a psychic? Venus Andrecht can see into your future and your mind, and the minds of those close to you-- living or dead. We'll spend a couple hours with her tonight and take your calls. Check out her "Dear Venus" radio show at ContactTalkRadio.com and the "Flow Mojo Show" that she does at VibranceTV.com with her daughter, Summer McStravick of "Flowdreaming" fame. We'll have fun-- and you may learn something! We talked about healthcare last night, obviously given Obama's proclamation that the House should now pass his healthcare plan (the one without details except the details that should scare the living life out of you)-- here's one article and another. But here's high irony. While lawmakers are seemingly concerned with your health, your local water continues to use fluoride. Nothing new there, you say? You've heard all the arguments against fluoride? Me too, but this is about fluoride from China with the added bonus of lead and arsenic. Not nauseous yet? Let me try again: Nancy Pelosi. She's the person house members fear crossing when it comes to the healthcare vote-- moreso even than Obama. That's according to Dr. Broun MD, a house member from Georgia who is none too fond of Obamacare. (But who in their right mind would be? That's not to say we don't need to change a lot about how healthcare is financed-- just to say that lessening government involvement will be more effective than strengthening it, assuming fixing the situation is the goal-- though I suspect controlling us comes first.) Even if you've done so already, this is the time to stay on your representative. Tell him or her to vote no on Obamacare or you'll vote no on them in November. Every house member is up for reelection and if enough of their constituents weigh in against this, at the very least they'll have to think a little longer and harder on their choice. You don't have to know who your rep even is. You can find out along with all the contact info here. More on Canadian health care and those in power who come to America for their needs. Says it all, doesn't it? Here's a novel way to fix the economy? Put up fake storefronts so shopping districts will look prosperous. They're doing it in England winning the form over substance award. No wonder they're selling the White Cliff's Of Dover. Mystery maybe: Is Obama trying to influence the vote of Rep. Jim Matheson? His brother has just been nominated to a federal judgeship by Obama. You won't have to wait long to find out whether the confirmed anti-Obamacare voter will change sides. We've talked a lot about problems with the justice system in this country in the past including the absurdity of the sexual offenders registry. The concept is to protect the public from predators and most Americans take comfort in their ability to know their neighbors in this regard. The problem is the database includes such people as those who were caught urinating in public or the 19 year old kid who had a 17 year old girlfriend, or the 21 year old guy who was told repeatedly by his new gal that she was 18-- she even had ID to prove it. All of that can make you a felon and it's all a far cry from forcibly raping someone at gun point or other manner of sexual crimes that most of us would find heinous. ReformSexOffenderLaws.org will give you more info. If someone in your life is caught up in this never ending cycle, please pass it along. We'll all be safer if we can differentiate between those who threaten society and countless others branded by the database and such things as the 45 year probation period that one caller last night told us about. Think it's not attractive to some people to be able to get everyone into a database, or have everyone under close surveillance? Can you imagine any other reason for a 45 year probation? Someone deserving of that probably doesn't deserve to be in the general population. Listener Mike wants you to take a new libertarian quiz. Click here. But if you ask me, there's a lively debate on one question in particular. "End government barriers to international trade". Actually we've damn near done that in totality with various trade agreements. But the problem arises when products and services can come from areas that pay a fraction of what American workers make. Here's my question: if you don't put equalizing tariffs on such products so that American employers will be on parity with foreign entities, then how can any company justify, let alone exist, by making things here? There is no easy solution but it's worthy of discussion as it is a big part of why we're where we are economically. WEDNESDAY MARCH 3, 2010 1:01 AM (PT) The Supreme Court heard arguments in favor of the 2nd amendment yesterday. The issue is Chicago's gun ban, specifically whether state or local laws can infringe on the 2nd Amendment. By all accounts (even Public Radio's) the justices were on the side of gun rights and Otis McDonald who brought the suit. Here's another story about it out of Chicago. Texas primaries yesterday-- to no one's surprise (and maybe no one's delight) Rick Perry wins the republican nod to remains as governor. And to everyone's delight (OK maybe not some republicans since he had 3 opponents), very pleased to say Ron Paul won. No surprise here: the internet overtakes newspapers as Americans' news source. TV is still in first place, but never the less, ABC is cutting half of its correspondents. 25% of Germans want RFID chips implanted under their skin. What worries me about this survey is that with 1and 4 gung ho, how easy would it be for the government to mandate it? Is Warren Buffett taking leave of his senses? His partner Charlie Munger realizes it's over for our economy. Buffett thinks it's on the rebound, but that's not my issue. He thinks health care costs are the problem. He wants to American to cut healthcare expenses from 16 to 9% like other countries who do a fine job with healthcare. Fine? Here's the NHS horror of the day: a war vet died in a British nursing home... after being starved to death, and that's not the worst part. TUESDAY MARCH 2, 2010 12:10 AM (PT) Brooklyn prosecutors cleared ACORN of criminal wrong doing yesterday. Of course I can't all the evidence they didn't have, but I can see the tapes that O'Keefe & Giles made. Even assuming heavy editing, the actual words that came out of ACORN workers' mouths would have been enough for me. Obama waited until the weekend when you weren't looking to decimate the bill of rights by renewing the Patriot Act. You didn't think he'd do otherwise, did you? There's no doubt your privacy is being decimated at every turn, and I like a good conspiracy as well as anyone else, but please fill out the census form that will arrive this month. There are 10 questions on it and none are particularly offensive. Who are you, how old are you, what's your birthdate, are you Hispanic, what's your race are about as dicey as it gets. Pick your battles. This isn't one of them. (Now as for the ACS-- The American Community Survey, that's a whole 'nother story but it's a whole 'nother questionnaire-- no more long form census, so rest easy and mail it back.) While we're talking about privacy though, here's another way you're being databased that I hope you won't like. Good news though-- South Carolina no longer wants you to register as a subversive. I want to put a face on Toyota's withholding of evidence. It's horrible when people are killed or injured but few realize the result of Toyota's reticence has put people in jail, like this guy sentenced to 8 years for what he didn't do. I hope he can sue and own them. It just isn't right. Doubt they withheld what they knew? Here's a former Toyota lawyer turned whistle blower that may change your mind. Heard about the financial meltdown in Greece? Bernanke says it might happen here. The Congressional Oversight Panel says about 3,000 banks are in big trouble. Mish Shedlock makes the case for seeing a prime indicator of an imminent market crash. No wonder more of us are grinding our teeth. A lot more. With our without Republicans, the Democrats are moving forward on health care. Actually, they have no choice. They're between a bad and a worse place. Everyone in the House is up for re-election and a lot of Democrats have gotten the message that they might not return to DC if they vote for this bill. Republicans therefore would delight in its passing providing they have absolutely no role in it. Even James Carville thinks the bill will lose-- if it does, it's Obama's waterloo-- and if it doesn't, it's a grave blow to congressional Democrats. Pelosi has her marching orders to pass it, but increasingly even supporters realize little good can come of it. Al Gore appeared in the New York Times over the weekend. His op ed piece was astoundingly 'know it all' in tone, even for him. So much so that a Forbes commentator makes the argument he's suffering from Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Investors Business Daily wasn't much more kind. Think HAARP caused the earthquake in Chile? Some people do. And on that conspiratorial note we'll bid you good night until tonight at 7 PT.
