I looked at this site and then sent the link to Shirley and two others.
Shirely got her email and said, "It doesn't work."
Sure enough, when I try to go back to fiveminutevacations.com, it can't
be found because it's not listed in my DNS server's database.
It works now.

Witless Wednesday; Obamacare By The Numbers
By Mike | November 13, 2013 - 11:00 am | America, Future, Libertarian,
Politics, Witless Wednesday
I have been asked to put the recent circus called Obamacare into perspective.
Other than a disbelief in Progressivism as a viable policy, I have tried to be
at least reasonable about my critique of this administration. I’ve given him the
benefit of the doubt on most right-wing fear mongering. I don’t put much weight
into him being a Muslim agent, or Kenyan citizen, I don’t really believe he is
the Anti-Christ. I’m not wont to call the president, and his cabinet of
buffoons, evil. Sadly, though, he is turning out to be pretty much what I feared
all along;
He’s turning out to be as incompetent as every other far-left politician we have
elected. Not evil, just incompetent. Progressivism is a policy of buffoonery as
it is, and he is the most Progressive president we have ever elected. It’s just
that now, with his name-sake achievement out in the open for public consumption,
no amount of spin and rhetoric can cover for it anymore. That’s the problem with
building a house of cards, one ill wind will topple it.
So, the best comparison I can offer is the last time we mobilized an entire
government to accomplish a task. Forget for the moment the cost, the duplicity,
the falsehoods, and even the spin. Let’s look at what I consider the true
telling of Progressive incompetence, by the numbers.
We declared war on Japan on December 8th, 1941 a day after the attack on Pearl
Harbor, and war on Germany on December 11th. We had to build an army, an Air
Force and rebuild a Navy. We had to mobilize a public and retool our industrial
base to manufacture tanks, planes, guns and bombs. We had to fight back
Fascism’s gains in Africa, Italy and across the Middle East. We had to organize
and implement the largest invasion in the history of the World and beat Germany
back across the Rhine. Victory over Germany was declared on May 18th, 1945. The
time it took from the Declaration of War to Victory over Germany was 3 years, 5
months and 7 days. Actually amazing when you consider it.
Now, let’s look at the modern equivalent;
The Affordable Care Act was signed into law and fully funded on March 23rd,
2010. The website roll out, the public face of the act, was rolled out on
October 1st, 2013. They had the entire Federal Government working on this
program, and spared no expense. From implementation to execution of the law took
3 years, 5 months, and 8 days. 1 day longer than it took to declare victory in
Germany. Look at Germany today. Look at Healthcare.gov. Draw your own
conclusions as to how well a bureaucracy can run anything, much less a program
that impacts every one of us. Anyway you look at it, it is incompetency on parade.
The saddest of all, is not the bumbling, the lies, the incompetence. Even the
hard core left Democrats are turning on the administration now. Clinton,
Landreau and even Feinstein are now dodging for cover and looking for excuses.
All trying to save the Democratic brand. Clinton of course knows this debacle
will crush Hillary’s chance at the presidency. Landreau is up for reelection
this year, so it’s no surprise her and 18 other Senate Democrats are now crying
about the bill. Feinstein knows it will overturn the Senate in 2014, so she’s
now panicked. Even the Democratic cheerleaders in the domestic media can no
longer cover for a farce this obvious. Their ratings are in the toilet, and
they’re starting to figure why. The thing that is making me witless this
Wednesday is that a majority of voters still haven’t seemed to figure out what
kind of albatross they have had strapped to their futures. What’s the old
saying? No matter how big the fool, there is always a bigger fool to follow them.
So, another Wednesday, another reason to be witless. If you can excuse this
debacle, or point blame anywhere else but this incompetent administration; then
welcome to the witless class, they have you right where they want you. I leave
you with a few reminders before you consider voting in 2014.
And before you consider putting another progressive in office, the last word on
the matter;
Have a great Wednesday. Get yourself out of the Witless Class.
