Michelle Bachmann Jesus Christ (JC) wants you to Speak the Truth!!
Michelle Bachmann Signing "More Power"!!
One Face the Nation June 26, 2011
Romney's Pain
I could only be more for Romney if I joined the LDS. I have voted for Romney and will continue to do so if he doesn't get involved with the Tea Party Candidate Michelle Bachman. From my experiences with Mormons they aren't much for drinking buddies but they are good people. So Mormons I welcome you to be my leader.
Sadly Michelle Backmann's enthusiasm seems to cloud her judgment. This morning on Bob Schieffer, I love you too Bob, Michelle Backmann, claimed Barack Obama released all of the oil from the strategic oil reserve. This is a dangerous and false assertion to make and as a Republican I feel it is my obligation to call Michelle Backmann and the Tea Party down on the carpet over this statement.
First Bush (41) released oil from the strategic oil reserves during the War inKuwait. It was bad crude and had the effect of driving oil prices down. The crude dumped on the market wasn't crude that could readily be used. This is an old move and a Republican one at that. So for Backmann to take issue with this move is to not know hsitry which is to be dangerous ignorant as a potential candidate.
Second I am afraid of politicians that are called to be politics by God. Most certainly God doesn't use a telephone or cell phone and if he made a divine calling to Ms. Backmann wouldn't it be for her to speak the truth. Only the devil would call someone to politics. Ms. Backmann can't take responsibility for her own decision to be in politics. How could she possibly be credible as a Vice Presidential Candidate?
And where I love Romney, I fear his vice presidential running partner. It could be a deal breaker for the moderator Republicans.
Jesus Christ wants you to quit Backmann
The Surprise Vice Presidential Candidate
I think there is still a surprise VP candidate for Romney to choose. There is someone out there that will make a strong running mate for Mitt but Backmann isn't it. Between hearing Jesus Christ and making false claims about the strategic oil reserves she has just killed her own political cause before she has announced. The surprise with Backmann is that she can make such claims and still have a realistic expectation to run for the Republican ticket. It is sad she sits on intelligence and gets her facts so screwed up. What a social disaster running for the Republican ticket. After hearing her speak I wouldn't trust her to be a page.
Let's see if Jesus Christ speaks to here again and tells her that she made false statements on Bob Schieffer's show? I am certain Jesus Christ, being he has made her a prophet, would correct her when she prays. The devil might not though and depending on how Michelle Backmann handles her errors will determine exactly who is speaking to her. It is horrific to think someone so reckless would be in charge of foreign affairs let alone a person who hears voices.
Backmann Jesus Christ wants you to speak the truth about the strategic oil reserves. The Tea Party's credibility died today with Michelle Backmann.
Bad Backmann JC is Going to Get You!!
So sad, Michelle Backmann represents the middle Eastern oil interests and have abslutely no idea everyone gets she represents OPEC interests in the USA. How dumb can these politicains be?
Tea Party Dividing the Republican Ticket?
Do you think the Tea Party is helping or hurting the Republican Party?
Will You Vote for a Tea Party Candidate?
If Romney's Running Mate is a Tea Party Candidate will you vote for Romney?
History International Political Women
Hi JT,
The burden of proof is on the accuser. YOU prove Michele diverted the assistance money and/or neglected the children.
As I stated before, I am not anti-Muslim. I have no qualms with Taiwan. My point is that most (not all) countries with high Islamic saturation are brutal, discriminatory, and in some cases genocidal. You are focusing on exceptions; I am focusing on what's commonplace.
Good Islam will never beat bad Islam. Take my word on this: the countries in North Africa and the Middle East that fall to Islamic theocracy will be many, and they all will be controlled by Iran. Seagates to the Mediterrean and Gulf oil nations will be blockaded on Iran's orders, threatening both European trade and the world flow of oil. Germany and its central European allies will SMASH radical Islam. The history of German warfare proves it (scorched earth). Sadly, this conflagration could easily spin out of control and lead to WWIII.
Yes, every country tortures, and its always wrong.
I had no idea Obama was a Scientologist. Where did you get this from?
I agree Congress (the House) has the power of the purse strings. I wish they would use this power, and get us out of Iraq and AFPAK. We're spending a fortune, and accomplishing nothing.
Yes, there IS a problem with the religion of Islam. Far too many of its adherents are either terrorists, or support the terrorists financially or morally. The goal here is a world caliphate (world takeover). There's an analogy here with the Nazis. Many Nazi death camps were understaffed, and needed extra men from the Order Police (street cops). The Order Police were NOT indoctrinated in Nazi ideology like the SS running the camps, but the requests for help in murdering Jews, Slavs, and Gypsies were OVERSUBSCRIBED. The point is you can't say "Nazi atrocities were limited to a small group of extremists." The point is that the WHOLE OF GERMANY was extremist.
Sudan is hardly peaceful. Northern Sudan is a staging hotbed for Middle East and European terror.
I agree the Gulf states are run by repressive regimes. But one wrong does not justify a greater one.
Your analysis of Lebanon and Turkey is wrong. Lebanon is not trying to "protect its sovereigny." Since being taken over by Hezbollah, its mission has been to bomb Israel into dust. Southern Lebanon now has over 40,000 rockets pointed at Israel. Why? Regarding Turkey, the old alliance with Israel is dead. The pro-Israel government had to become anti-Israel, or there would have been a popular uprising and the government would have been toppled.
Fear is not the goal of terrorism. Fear is just the means to an end (violent takeover).
Bachmann is staunchly pro-life. I don't know how you can say she is afraid to face the issue. She has never wavered on this, unlike Romney.
I'm not following the point about Bachmann funding a war without authorizing it. Please explain further.
Oil is hardly "free trade." OPEC gets a monopoly premium because Oblabber won't let us drill domestically.
It's true that China is highly repressive, but that doesn't excuse Islamic atrocities.
Not true on Lybia. The House has funding authority, but the Senate has authority to ratify treatires. So you need two approvals here.
I AM terrified of the current US administration. They're a bunch of overspending, socialist, transnantionalist liars bent on destroying our nation. Yes, Obama inherited a mess, but he made it worse, not better.
I'm not drinking any KoolAid. I have no doubt that terror suspects have in fact been tortured by the US, which is wrong. But the wrongs of Islamics, while not justifying torture by us, are much greater.
I'm sure you are right that we have some Muslims on our side. So what? The "big picture" is that Islam is not a religion, but a radical political ideology based on a goal of world domination through terror. This is not "hate speech," but just recognition of a fact that repeats itself over and over again.
You are completely off base about Bachmann. She raised 28 foster problem children, five children of her own, and runs a day care business. She simply likes to help children. You are acting as if she is one of those cheats who raises foster children for the money and then spends the money on herself.
Muslims don't have money because of free trade, and free trade is not evil (it maximizes world wealth via differential advantage, as I believe I explained before). Gulf states have money because they have an oil monopoly. Terror groups like Fatah have billions because of contributions from people who want there to be terror. Most of the Muslim world is poor.
1) Stu does Walmart provide yo with those fine goods and low proces?
2) Oil Stu!! Oil And iy sqiality is poor and we are paying through the nose for it.
Let me give you the real scenario of what free trdae is doing we are getting Lemons from third world countries and they are being shppied to the USA and the cost of shipping it costs more than the cost of growing the lemon at home and by the time the lemon reaches the market it isn't higher in quality but rotten. Free tarde isn't imporving the marekts places but causing wars over commodities whihc the average person can no longer afford. Unfortunately those who are ripping everyone esle off with free trade aren't sharing their wealth like Tony Blair and South Korea.
Becuase Free Trade requires things to be shipped all over the world those Muslims you dislike so much are making a killing in their oil and hence they feel perfectly legitmitized to do anything and everything they can to keep thier profit margis high.
3) See China for Sudan. I have noticed you haven't been critical of China's attrocities why the double standard.
4) To fund something and then claim it is not legal is to be speaking out of both sides of your mouth. when Congress funded Libya they made it legal by the mere act of funding it.
5) The Courts job is to interrupt the laws as written and the Legislators write laws so they have huge loop holes and in many events loop holes they can exploit. Tell me Bachmann, if elected which I don't believe will ever happen will not wirte corporate tax loop holes the size of the grand canyon.
6) There isn't a Muslim out there that isn't funded by oil money. And when we fund the oil industry and the middle east as we have we legitimize it. Free trade only further legitimizes the very Muslims you fear by paying them. Our nation will always be taken over by the middel east while engaged in World Trade. And Bachmann wishes to further propel Muslims to mre American Satust and Wealth than the American People.
Did you know about Tony Blair giving the oil crontracts and billions of dollars to South Korea? Do you know they shot down a USA spy plane in China? And you are worreid about the Muslims? You should be more afraid of your own government and the people you cite.
And dear God please stop drinking the cool aid in this country. Just because a show is made o the internet doesn't mean it is real. You sound like the Muslims that believe their people were tortured in GITMO. NOt everything you see is real. And trust me I knwo because you believe Bachmann and she isn't for real.
Check out the site about Tony Blair. Check out my Hub on the USA spy plane being shot down. And then ask yourself are the Muslims in this country really the problem ad don't we owe it to our tropps who are Muslims to support them regardless of their fath. Again you haven't even ackniwledgeed that we have more Muslims working fo this country than we are currently fighting around the world. And yes, they are accpeted because they do the hard work but I don't think that makes them infiltraters anymoe than Germans that fled Nazi German after the war and joined out military. They too moved on to government careers. This is how American works. Whne there is a war we accpt people from the country we are fighting and if they fight for us we welcome them with all their diversity. Where hae you been over the last couple of decades. This is your country. I would expect you to already knwo this. They aren't infiltrators but veterans with a diffeent religious bachground from your own.
Stu, really lay off the Muslims. Stop calling them names. They are a decent society. Actually much better than you know. And if you can't open your mind to the fact 99.99% of Muslims are great people I don't know if I want you to post on my Hub anymore.
We can disagree on substantive issues but I will not allow my Hub to be a Muslim bashing center for you to take your agressions out. So if you can't stop attacking the Muslims and you can't control your hate speech this might be the end of our debate. I don't mind doing the substantive arguments but you have to have a substantive argument. Just like Michelle Backmann isn't allowed to lie on tv and her sanity is called into question when Jesus Christ gives her political advice.
Your hate speech only insights Muslims to act more aggressively. And don't you think if they have infiltrated our government on every level they know you are writing such horrible thinsg about them on the computer?
And what about Bachmann's wellfare for her foster kids. Why hasn't she had to be accuntable for that. Don't you know that no one can rasie 28 children competently. She was on wellfare the entire time. One subisidy after another. And she is going to teach this coutnry about monetary policy..the welfare Mama?
Stu...wake up and stop drinking the cool aid. Muslims wouldn't be bothered with you they have more money than God because of free trade and they can do anything they want without being held accountable.
And stop picking on poor Barack. He got an ugly job. So he couldn't keep his promises atleast he had ideas on the way in. And he will be departing shortyly.
JEB and Romney are gong to provide one Arab Spring after another.
No more posts against the Muslims. I will have a fair debate with you on issues but I will not discriminate against any demographic. I will not demonize any ethic or religious group. And it isn't about PC it is about common sense. I have far too many Muslim (Not all of whom are Arab which the facist Muslim you need to meet.)friends who have been good to my family and myself to ever generalize against the Muslims. I wish you the same experiences but if you keep speak so ill of this population I fear they will never give you an opportunity and you will never give them an opportunity.
Free Trade is the evil here not the Muslims.
No more posts against the Muslims or I will deny them. I have allowed it to go this far because I don't readily censor but this is the end of the line.
Free markets (absence of unreasonable government regulation) do not build up fdderal debt. Excess government spending builds up federal debt.
Free trade maximizes world wealth, and should be strongly enocuraged. Capital flows to where it can be employed most productively. This is called "comparative advantage." The idea is that if each country focuses at what its best at, then free trade permits this output to be exported. Obviously, you're going to get the greatest quantity, highest quality, and lowest cost if everybody is doing the things they do best.
How you link free trade to Islamic atrocities in the Far East is inexplicable. See the videos on YouTube of Malaysian villagers being murdered. Then come back and tell me "free trade" caused this.
There are reports coming out every day of Islamic atrocities in Africa - Ivory Coast, Nigeria, Sudan, you name it. The MSM doesn't cover it. But internet news sources do.
How are we Iran? I don't follow this, except to the extent that it may be Oblabber's wish.
Congress writes laws, with a specific meaning (intent) in mind. The court's job is to infer that intent when applying a law in a case, and apply it accordingly.
The fact that the House funded the Lybia invasion is not relevant to the invasion's legality. The invasion must BOTH be funded by the House, AND approved by the Senate (the latter per the War Powers Act). The House action just provides the money; the Senate action provides THE PERMISSION TO UTILIZE THE MONEY.
The people oppressing the populations in Muslim countries are not the Christians now being slaughtered, but the secular strongmen the Muslim's have overthrown (with US help). The strongmen had to be oppressive to prevent the very atrocities that are now occuring in every country that has ousted its secular strongman.
I will not feign "peace" with Islamics on "PC" grounds. If they really want peace, they have to give up on barbarity, infiltration, terror, and national takeovers. When I hear clear and convincing evidence from both the leaders of Islam, and their masses, that terror will cease, and the goal of a world caliphate is defunct, I'll be happy to welcome them into the world of decent society. Not one second sooner.
Hi JT,
The TPM is not part of the radical right (revolutionary posse groups). They simply stand for free markets, constructionist interpretation of law, and federal debt reduction. If that's radical, then call me a radical.
I love the northeast too. It's really gorgeous. It's the people here we can do without. As far as I'm concerned they can all pack up and go to North Korea where they'll be happy, and all my blogging buddies from the southeast can come up and take their place.
I couldn't get elected flea catcher here. I'd have to move to another state.
Can't you get past the Bachmann oil reserve thing? It was just a mistake. And why no mention of all of Obama's non-truths, which were genuine lies: no more signing statements, all legislation will be posted on the internet for public comment five days before floor votes in Congress, our national debt will be reduced, recipients of earmarks will be publicized on a government web site, contents of meetings between lobbyists and federal officials will be made public, the Second Amendment will be protected, etc.
I'll give the Muslims a break when they stop breaking heads. Have you taken a look at what's happening in the far east, like Malaysia and nearby countries? All Christian males in entire villages are hacked to death with machetes, and the local Sharia authorities are so OK with it that the murderers are even willing to have the murders filmed and posted on YouTube. It's like asking me to give the SS a break.
Stu I m laughing s hard. I love this response. Quote, "Islam is a culture of demonic intolerance and cruelty, and Vermont is a bastion of anti-American socialism. Both do belong in the toilet.". Man just because it is shown on TV doesn't make it true. Some Muslims in some countries celebrated but not the majority and you aren't considering that Muslims died in the 9/11 attacks as well. Muslims have been in this country forever. They are no more demonic than you or I. And as for Vermont being a bastion of Anti-America Socialism...we would like t have a second home there. We love Vermont!!! Great snow Skiing!!!
Isn't your community networked into specific meetings??? Don't you have communial meetings? That is where you start finding your base to run for office. I want you to run. I think you will see all money has strings. And i think you will be surpirsed how the parties control everything. Bachmann included. By the way I read a post that she hides in the bushes from the gay rights advocates? The post porclaimed she was nucking futs!!!
JEB is hidding around the corner Stu. I don't want to ruin the suspense but really JEB is running. TPM is only a front and they are so far right that it even makes a BUsh seem okay for the Executive branch.
I'm a registered Republican and Romney has my vote. He also pays for ads on my sight as well as Palin and Bachmann. I am an equal opportunity adsense person.
The real question is how bad does Barack Obama have to throw his party to make JEB and Romney win? That is where I think the story is at. Palin and Bachmann will be back in the bushes hidding fromt he gay advocates in no time.
Please Stu, run. I bet you would make a great politican. I would vote for you but not if you kept company with Michelle Bachmann. You are alright and you made me laugh really hard. We love Vermont, New York, New Hampshire, Maine, Conneticut (Great Siing there as well!!) and just baout every other place on the East Coast.
You should run Stu. I think you would make a great politican and since you have worked with organizations you have the right to go ask them to help you run. Please you have the computer thing going on. It would be a great video library perhaps even a media event...Stu running for Senate.
Bachmann lied about the startedic oil reserve. It would be a big damned deal in DC if we were out. And intelligence would be all over it. Many politicans lie to gain a margin of credibiltiy and they never expect peope to call them on it. Itis not the first thing Bachmann has said that was completely incorrect.
I also have several questions regarding how she managed to raise 28 children 23 of which she received state and fedeal aid to raise and she has never mentioend her subisdies. You are backing a wealthfare foster parent. Funny too I didn't think William and Mary had a law school. It may but i don't remember it from when I applied there. I'll have to look that up and get back to you on that. I could be wrong so don't quote me.
I am not Michelle Bachmann and I do try to make certain I am correct in my assertions and look factually after all these posts Stu we aren't wrong. We disagree but we haven't had to fudge numbers or lie to each other. We cann civily disagree.
But please Stu, give the Muslims a break. There are so many wonderful Muslims in the world. Don't let a few rotten apples jade your view. I really love my friends from every walk of life. We are all capable of evil but we chose to do the right thing and many Muslims are mking the same choices we re and they need to be given credit.
Run Stu. And be nice to Vermont that bastion of socialize might just elect you if your ask nicely!!
All My Best,
Good Evening,
Please don't write such great posts they make me laugh really hard and it hurts my ribs:):)
Hi JT,
Thanks so much for the long reply. I really love it when people who have different opinions can discuss things rationally instead of name calling. Many times I've made completely polite posts disagreeing with a point, and I've been called a Nazi, a Klansman, you name it. I haven't seen any of that here on HP, but it happens alot on another system I blog in. Sometimes I can't help but laugh at it - a Nazi is an extreme left wing expansionist who supports structured dictatorship, and a Klansman is an extreme right wing isolationist who supports anarchy. They are exact opposites. How can I be BOTH?
I'm not sure what you mean by Obama being "vetted." If you are referring to the Birther issue, it's alive and well. We've still seen no original long form BC that proves Obama is a natural born US citizen.
Obama DID have a very ugly hand to play. But he made things worse, not better. He ramped up the already outragious debt, and engaged in serial Constitution breaking and breach of affirmative duty. He also greatly damaged our national security by severing ties to historical allies and allowed radical Sharia to take hold in the US, even within the federal executive staff.
Michele Bachmann never claimed to be a constitutional lawyer; she is a tax attorney, and does in fact have two advanced degrees in the subject.
Name one thing Muslim adds to our country. Again, I wish to emphasize that I am not anti-Arab or anti-Muslim, I am anti-Islamic. Islam is NOT the USA, and neither is Vermont. Islam is a culture of demonic intolerance and cruelty, and Vermont is a bastion of anti-American socialism. Both do belong in the toilet.
Bachmann could not have possibly purposely overstated the release from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to create a panic. It had to be a simple mistake of fact. The simple reason is that the mistake could be and was noticed and reported on immediately. Bachmann would have known this would happen were she to intentionally lie.
What outlandish claims has Bachmann made? I'm aware of the mistake on the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, and her error about the history of slavery in her SOTUA rebuttal. What else?
You are tangentially correct that the POTUS election goes to the highest bidder, because the candidate with the biggest warchest can put on the most campaign ads. But message matters too. Many low-funded TPM candidates beat richly funded opponents in 2010 simply because their policy plank was better. Cash is part of the equation, but it is not the sole factor.
We need to become more protectionist. I'm all in favor of free markets, but at present we are too anti-protectionist. Congress has accepted billions in corporate bribes not to impose retaliatory import tariffs against China, India, and other low wage countries. The reason is that these countries demand export protection in exchange for allowing our multinationals to hire their cheap labor. Strict imposition of retaliatory import tariffs would get us kicked out of China and India, and alot of jobs that were offshored would return home.
Bachmann is not fear mongering. She's just being brutally honest about the sacrifices we will have to make if we wish to resolve the federal debt crisis. It will mean massive federal layoffs, a giant boost to the tax base, and rapid phaseout of federal entitlement programs. It's going to hurt ALOT. If seeming fear mongering gets us to act before the problem becomes too big to solve, then by all means, let's have alot more fear mongering.
Islam is bad because it is bad. If only a handful of Islamics were radical at heart, why were Islamics all over the world cheering in the streets when the Twin Towers went down? I'm not saying all Islamics are directly involved with terror, but I am saying that most Islamics support the radical and intolerant concept of complete merging of government and their intolerant religion. That means non-Islamics are treated as infidels and are subject to harrassment and even death, and Islamics are subject to the death penalty if they choose to convert to another religion. Husbands are allowed to rape their wives. Husbands are allowed to torture their wives for refusing to have sex. People who steal a candy bar have their hands cut off, even children. Islam is barbaric, and belongs on the ash heap of history.
Who would I make friends with here? In 2010, I did some phone banking for (federal) candidates across the country that I liked. I also belong to the Americans for Prosperity (AFP), an advocacy group for free markets. They had some state level politicians in VT they supported, and I did some phone banking for the AFP. The script started with "Would you like to reclaim your freedoms under the Constitution?" ALMOST EVERYONE HERE JUST HUNG UP. One moonbat who did agree to speak said "No, I don't think I want that, but thanks so much for calling."
The GOP nomination is less of a shell game than you think. Centrists will have no say in the nomination. The only candidates that will appeal to registered GOP voters (who are predominantly right wing) are Bachmann, Paul, and Cain. None of these candidates are taking special interest money. Cain doesn't have enough name recognition to raise a big enough warchest to effectively campaign at the grassroots level. Either Bachmann or Paul will win, unless "Romney the RINO" trounces them with saturation ads funded by Wall Street donations. Pawlenty has a shot, if he could get beyond talking about his budget accomplishments in MN. While his superb fiscal credentials are a giant plus for him, he can't win the nomination on that alone; he has to present a complete policy platform to win the nomination, which he has yet to do.
Not all PAC money comes with strings attached. Money from PAC's run by corporations, unions, and other groups looking for legislation favoring their own parochial interests do of course come with strings attached ("submit/support legislation that makes us richer"). But ideology driven PAC's donate money to candidates with no strings attached; they simply donate to candidates who already are on record as supporting their position.
Hi JT,
All TPM candidates take TPM group PAC funds. But these are not special interest donations (they come with no demands for legislative favors). TPM meetings sometimes do charge fees for attending, but that's only so they can fund candidates and/or their own operating expenses.
Obama never claimed to be a constructionist. He merely claimed to have a law degree (and we don't even really know that, as he has sealed his academic records).
Please explain what you think Bachmann has lied about. I know she has made some factual errors in her speeches, like all pol's do on occaision, but I'm not aware of any deliberate lies.
Nothing Bachmann has said indicates to me she is a warmonger. Please provide some examples if you disagree.
Regarding other (announced) POTUS candidates I would support, the only ones are Cain and Paul; all the others besides Bachmann are RINO's. I'm still open-minded about Pawlenty, but I need to hear a complete policy position from him first. Regarding unnanounced candidates, I like Rick Perry and Mike Pence, but they may or may not run. No matter who ultimately runs in the GOP primary, I'll be supporting Bachmann.
I am not biased against Muslims from a racial point of view. I am biased against Islam from a religious point of view. Islam at current is not a religion, but is a political ideology based on national infiltration, terror, and takeover. Bias based on facts is judgment, not prejudice.
Stu thank youf or responding. I persnally watched Michelle Backmann claim she had received a calling from JESUS CHRIST and i heard her say "Obama released ALL not some of the oil from the stregic oil reserves.". And she wasn't on TV that long.
I'm afraid of people who believe they have the divine authority to run this country.
You don't think the Tea Party is loaded up with special interest monies? Backmann is a Tea Party candidate and has taken Tea Party funding. I attended a Tea Party with only a few select people in the state of Florida. They wanted a hundred thousand dollar donation from each of us.
I have noticed Vermont isn't suffering the same problems economically as the rest of the USA and let me clarify we love Vermont. The view is different from Floirda.
And you don't know that Michelle Backmann isn't psychotic. You can't prove she isn't. And she has called her own mental health into question by misquoting and claiming Jesus Christ called her to politics. You don't even know it was Jesus Christ that called her. You can't prove her calling and you can't prove what called her be it the devil or psychosis.
Stu, I appreciate you repectful answers and the debate. But frankly, Michelle Backmann did this to herself. And yes, every word she speaks she is going t be held accountable for because we are tired out here Stu of crooked, broken lying politicans that make Americans look foolish.
Obama was a strick constitutional law professor remember how that turned out? Being a constitutionalist doesn't mean anything. Messing up on national tv in what a short interview before you official announce your candidaccy is to commit political suicide.
You can't predict how Backmann is going to behave if elected because quite frankly all of Vermont loved Obama and look what he has done. Vermont is pretty outraged. I know people that live there. Obama failed Vermont on so many levels and Backmann will do the exact same thing. And again we like Vermont.
I respect your comment and I appreciate them. But the truth is Backmann is no more predictable than Obama. Actually, I have found Obama to be very predictable. I just knew he ws lying when he ran for POTUS. Backmann is lying as well and you can't proven Jesus Christ provide her a calling but i can prove she said it and that calls her credibiltiy into question entirely. Quite frankly, I think they should kick her off the intelligence committee. But untilt his post I really haven't lobbied for that.
If Backmann is responsible at all let her explain why she would lie about the strategic oil reserves wehn she would have that information on the tip of her tongue as she would have access to those numbers everyday while on intelligence committee. And prove to me that Jesus Crhist made a calling for Backmann to go into politics. Prove there is a Jesus Christ and it was actually He who called her. It is a rather irresponsible claim to make on tv when Backmann is unable to prove it. Why would I listen to anything else the Tea Party memebers would have to say? Inaccuracies if not bold faced lies, delusions at best if not psychosis combined with the inability to accept personal resonsibilities and retract her statemenst immediately is no one I would ever consider worthy of a second look.
Backmann could push the button and go to war because she thought Jesus Christ told her to do so. To unstable for government work!!!!
And yes, I would challenge any candidate that made false claims despte theri political affiliations, candidacy or anything else. That includes Jim DeMint. That includes everyone.
I hate to break it to you but i have had a lot of positive feedback form thsi article and the majority of people agree. You are right high contact people, not Backmann, do make mistakes and they have people that immediately retract their statements. You would think if Backmann was up for the job as an attorney and a "seasoned politicans so seasoned as to be ready for the executive branch" she would have been on this immediately but nope. I have had all week to kick this around because she and her camp failed to put out a statement retracting her false claims.
I respect your opinion Stu and if you have another candidate that doesn't go all wild and crazy on Face the Nation, announce and fail to put out a retraction, I will consider him/her depsite their religion. But as for Backmann there is no way I would vote for her now!!! How could she qualified ot be on the Intelligence Committee? Has she even served in the military or held a state Department job? It doesn't matter I wouldn't vote for her now.
First impressions are the most lasting and Backmann's is that of a right winged psychotic delusion woman who recieves messages from Jesus Christ and lies about the POTUS. Not my cup of Tea at all.
Hello JT,
I really must disagree with your thread. Michele Bachmann is one of the very few (announced) POTUS candidates that are true constitutional constructionists, committed to free markets, and are dead serious about federal debt reduction. The only others that definitely qualify are Ron Paul and Herman Cain. Tim Pawlenty certainly qualifies on the debt reduction front, but has not articulated his positions on other issues yet in enough detail to know what he thinks about them.
Mitt Romney, contrary to what many conservatives believe, is not a terrible candidate. Most conservatives villify him for his role in the MA HC fiasco, but everyone makes mistakes, and it's unfair to hold one error against someone for the rest of their life. Much bigger issues with Romney concern his fund raising (what did he have to promise Wall Street to raise $10 million this early in the race), and why does he flip-flop so often on so many issues (abortion, gay marriage, etc.)? My feeling is that he lacks depth of ideology, and will say/do whatever is required to maximize votes (just the kind of people we need to get rid of).
Moving on to Bachmann, she is my personal favorite. She's staunchly supportive of all TPM principles, and takes no special interest money, so she will be beholden to nobody if she is elected (of course, this means she will have to rely solely on grassroots funding, which is a big hurdle against the Obama/union/DNC money machine). If elected, she will go through federal operating spending with a hacksaw, take a machete to federal entitlements (so we can abrogate most of the off balance sheet debt), and I suspect she will submit a raft of repeal bills and court challenges to undo the Obama agenda which has led to the passage of so many unconstitutional laws and issuance of so many illegal EO's.
The chatter about Bachmann hearing messages from God is taken out of context. She merely recounted for the public record that in discussing with her husband the possibility of running for federal offices in MN, she mentioned that she felt a calling from God to make the runs. She never claimed to have had auditory experiences. Other prominent conservatives have spoken about prayer and callings from God in regard to their political decisions too, such as Jim DeMint. There is no psychosis here, but just statements of how certain candidates feel inside.
I agree Michele made a mistake of fact regarding how much oil was released from the strategic petroleum reserve, but all politicians make such factual errors from time to time. Major politicians have to speak to the media so often, and frequently in unscripted formats, that such errors are simply unavoidable. Pretend you had to speak for 5-10 hours per week on TV, without a script, on a vast range of public issues. I think you know you would occaisionally get some facts wrong, even if your main points were correct.
I'm not sure where "Michelle Backmann represents the middle Eastern oil interests" is coming from. It's the Obama administration that's preventing domestic drilling and exploration, not the TPM. Whether this is to appease the green crowd, or kowtow to Muslims (OPEC), or both, I can't tell you (because I don't know). But nobody is propping up US oil prices as much as Obama. Until we get serious drilling going again in the Gulf, and open up the Rockies and ANWR to major development and exploration, we're going to stay in the soup on energy. Things in fact may get worse, and fast. The EPA is considering shutting a big portion of Texas oil production down to protect a lizard they wish to add to the endangered species list. If they do this, expect another spike in the price of gas at the pump.
Brooklyn in Florida but you can't really take the New York out of the girl. LOL.
I think the wisest thing to do is disorganize and stay away form groups. Be the undefinable person.
He is probably memorizing the words by making them into a song. Have you tried the Brain Quest Workbooks? I do those atleast once a day. I have ot break up the sections but my son loves them. They are good general reinforcers.
No labels is probably a group to collect the gay and disenfranchized groups to vote for the Republicans. I am very pro gay rights. I can't say anything about marriage for the heterosexuals or anyone else. I don't believe in marriage at all. I believe in renting ideas and loyalty but I am not certain exactly how marriage fits into that. I'd imagine Republicans are trying to pick up centerist Democrats. That would be my stradegy if I were running for president. More Democrats are mad at Obama than Republicans.
I don't know how conservatives can pick up the gay vote. It seems inconvienable but I guess I can't blame them for trying. Dems are going to have the Hispanic vote unless JEB jumps in.
Backmann is a Red Herring and not a real candidate. I am still waiting for the real Republican candidate to stand up. I think it is Romeny but the VP is going to be tricky aand I don't think Backmann has a shot. She blew it quite literally before she formally announced. Many people remind me Dan Qualye was president and I have to remind them that was a very different time. I haven't written a Hub on Romney yet but I have about all the possibilities in the Republican Party.
You take care as well my friend and give the lad a hug from me.
As Always All My Best,
Absolutely I consider you a friend.
Hey JT,
Brooklyn girl? Too cool.
You know I just may join No Labels. I am getting sick of most Progressives. They want the President to be what he is not, a bully, and non pragmatic. It is ticking me off.
At the same time I am listening to Mark Mckinnon -- Founder of No Label -- say how authentic Michelle Bachmann is. I thought that lying actually counts you out of being a real authentic person. LOL. I guess I will not join his group. LOL.
It is so cool corresponding with you, and I like you too, which is why I gladly sign off calling you friend.
Oh, lord, my son is singing the words to the book he is suppose to be reading. LOL. Must go.
Take Care Friend,
JT you are the first republican with any sense, I am not a democrat or a republican I am an American and Michele Bachman is an embarassment to us all. Finally someone who sees Michele for what she realy is, a lier. Thanks I'm following you, Peter
Hey JT,
I shared this with my other followers, and on my Facebook page.
I actually was hesitant, because I really did not want the conservatives on here to go after you ....
Still, I wanted your work read, because all of us have to call out those in our parties -- I am an Independent Liberal who votes Democratic -- who say wrong and dangerous things as if nothing bad could happen. As if they do not know the history of America. Crazy.
Oh, I am a New Yorker, and most Blacks -- who are registered Democrats -- I know voted for Mike Bloomberg -- who started out as a registered Republican -- at least two of the three times he ran. I voted for him every single time.
I was angry when the journalist threw his shoes at President Bush, and I could not stand Bush for his horrible policies. Still, he was my President, and I wanted that guy thrown under the jail. LOL. Hum, that does not sound nice. LOL.
I have more to say, but I will not. LOL.
This was well written.
Thanks for sharing.
Take Care, Friend,

Transcript Edit
- Panel 1, Page 1
Being of Pure Law and Good: —Not Guilty.

Elan: Hooray!
Vaarsuvius: Outstanding.
Haley: Zktv?
- Panel 4, Page 1
Being of Pure Law and Good: By virtue of it having been strictly necessary at the time, the Order of the Stick is hereby cleared of all charges.
- Panel 5, Page 1
Roy: Hmm. Go figure. I had pretty much given upon there being any justice at this farce of a trial, but I guess I was being too cynical.
Haley: Fx, ztbv, vktv aupqbev qxusf'v ntou sufsu. Qtzs qxf'v zxpo vktv ztd.

Hinjo (off-panel): Yes, Lord Shojo.
- Panel 8, Page 1
Lord Shojo (off-panel): And Hinjo... Why do I have a piece of paper on my lap that says "Meow"?
Elan: I didn't know if Mr. Scruffy could read Common.
- Panel 9, Page 1

Haley: Xk, fuaup nbfq, B qxf'v ofxz zkd B'n hxvkupbfs.
Elan: It's tough to tell if you're mad at me. I mean, you LOOK mad, but looks can be deceiving.
- Panel 1, Page 2
Lord Shojo: Mr. Greenhilt? Mr. Scruffy would like to have a word with you before you leave.
Roy: Yeah? Well Mr. Scruffy can shove it up his fuzzy little—
Haley: Ztbv-Uwtf, zktv qbq dxl risv std?
Elan: I understand, though. I'm kinda bummed out too. All that time spent on the trial, and what a let down.
- Panel 2, Page 2

Elan: That's not a climax!
- Panel 3, Page 2

Belkar lays on the floor hurt as Miko raises her sword above him, magic visibly emanating from it.
Miko: Time to DIE, evildoer!
- Panel 5, Page 2
Elan: Now, see that?
Elan: THAT'S a climax!
D&D Context Edit
- Common is the basic language of the world.
Trivia Edit
- The translation of Haley's lines are:
- Panel 3, Page 1: What?
- Panel 5, Page 1: No, wait, that verdict doesn't make sense. Daws [sic - Laws] don't work that way.
- Panel 6, Page 1: I've seen enough of my Thieves' Guild friends sent to prison to know that this should have been a conviction.
- Panel 9, Page 1: But...but it doesn't make any sense!
- Panel 10, Page 1: No! I'm noa [sic - not] OK, this whole trial made NO SENSE!
- Panel 11, Page 1: We WERE guilty! It should have been a guilty verdict! I can understand if they wanted to reduce the sentence due to the circumstances, but it should have still been a guilty verdict.
- Panel 12, Page 1: Oh, never mind. I don't know why I'm bothering.
- Panel 1, Page 2: Wait—Elan, what did you just say?
- Panel 2, Page 2: Oh my gods, Elan! That's it! Elan, you're a genius!
- Note that the encryption key to Haley's cryptograms in this strip is "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog", with repeated letters removed.
- In the previous strip, Elan was encouraged by Roy to "vote" for who he wanted to win the trial by slipping a note to Mr. Scruffy.
- This is the final appearance of the four priests who summoned the Being of Pure Law and Good: Azurite Priest with Black Hair, Azureite Priest with Blue Beard, Azurite Priestess, and Azurite Priest with Mustache. The former two first appeared in #267, while the latter two first appeared in #283.

Only the most savvy RV homeowners know that Boles Aero journey trailers are classic journey items value owning. One tip for the frequent traveler: Bring one of those rubbish baggage (industrial use) in your keep it up. You can use this to wrap your luggage not only after they burst open but in addition whenever you journey to rural areas and your baggage will likely be positioned at the back of the vans. If you have got payments that are always the same quantity, akin to cable tv or web service, health insurance premiums or month-to-month memberships for instance, just ship in payment earlier than you allow. If you are a resident of the US, touring to or within Europe is your worldwide journey. Wages shall be based on you work location, training, and skilled expertise, as well as on the size of service you could have established with a particular travel company.
People would no longer have to worry about tenting sites which are too shut together, not stage, or noisy. Our journey insurance coverage and help packages can cover you for journey cancellation, travel interruptions and delays, misplaced baggage and journey paperwork, emergency medical and health expenses, and more. People who do not travel can not have a world view, all they see is what's in entrance of them.
I'm currently in touch with a travel agent, who's researching fares for me. So far, they appear to be hovering round U.S $1,600, round-trip. It would be foolish to go away out the unique (probably!) and best travel journal EVER! Great listing for those who love to read about journey as a lot they enjoy taking vacations. As Traveler I can Travel the nation and the world and get paid to do it while I'm young.
Of course my Dutchman Sport journey trailer has a hot water heater, and it works completely nicely – however I reside in this factor, and I like shopping for propane about as a lot as I like paying the IRS to murder folks abroad for corporate earnings. If you liked the unique Men in Black movie – many say the second installment of the MIB franchise wasn't up to par – then I'm pretty positive you'll really like MIB3, which provides time travel twists to the combination. Sure, it is smaller, has less conveniences, but it's also much more economical, easier to travel with, and nearer to upkeep free.
Of course, we remain weak to a recession but if this trend does proceed to be supported by the info then we will anticipate tourism and leisure to be one of many strongest performing sectors over the following decade. Whether you are touring for enterprise or pleasure, overseas, or staying in the states, the Silver Level by Travel Guard is perfect for enterprise travel and common journey with basic coverage quantities and access to 24/7 journey assistance companies.

Magnesium Oil 1000ml
1000ml pure Zechstein magnesium Oil
Magnesium Oil 1000ml – Benefits
Innovative and new
Magnesium oil is a new, innovative preparation of magnesium for external applications, and can be applied directly or sprayed on skin.
This Magnesium Oil Vital Spray is a Zechstein magnesium chloride solution for effective delivery of magnesium through the skin. The Vital Spray can be used for massages, skin regeneration and care.
The name "magnesium oil" comes after its smooth, nurturing and fluid texture. It is not really oil in nature, hence leaves no oily spots on clothes.
Naturally formed original Zechstein magnesium oil
The Magnesium Oil Vital 1000ml contains high-quality Zechstein Mineral. The Zechstein mineral is named after its ancient and pristine source, the ancient Zechstein Sea, a geological formation in Northern Europe during the Late Permian Era. For 250 million years, the Original Zechstein magnesium salt has been preserved deep in the immaculate Zechstein Seabed 1600-2000 meters beneath Earth's crust. The extraction of Original Zechstein magnesium chloride, from the purest and most pristine natural magnesium chloride source in the world, became possible in the Netherlands since 1982.
The optimal application
Using a spray bottle, apply 5 to 20 pumps of magnesium oil on arms, legs or abdomen then massage gently (skincare). Leave the fluid on body 15-20 minutes for absorption and rinse the applied area afterwards when necessary. Each milliliter of magnesium oil contains about 103mg elementary magnesium.
Our advice
Foot and Body Bath
We also recommend our Magnesium Chloride Vitalbad with pure Zechstein Mineral for foot baths or body baths.

How about thinking differently for a day? And if it works, then try being different again and again until it is who you are and others are copying you. Here are a few ways to start the process:
- Find a dreamer and listen to them till you dream;
- Run towards tomorrow as it will be better than today;
- Smile till it hurts or others smile back;
- Be unrealistic and do it regardless of what everyone tells you;
- Hang out with happy successful people;
- Dig deep for the spirit inside you and use it to start a fire with those around you;
- Say thank you again and again to all whom you come in contact with…..
Loving life and being different

Read Aloud America is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded in 1995 by Jed Gaines, a Honolulu businessman and entrepreneur.
It is the parent organization for a family-centered program called RAP, the Read Aloud Program.
Through RAP, Read Aloud America carries out its mission to promote literacy, bond families and build communities of lifetime readers.
On Dec. 29, the editors of The Maui News published an article titled "Lost funding has put brakes on local Read Aloud program." Staff writer Colleen Uechi featured the background of the lost funding and highlighted that "cost cutting has led to loss of vans, use of U-Haul vehicles."
With a copy of The Maui News in hand, Founder/President Jed Gaines set a meeting with Tony Honda Group in Honolulu. As a result of this meeting, the Tony Honda Group offered Gaines "an amazing discounted offer" with the purchase of a 2018 Odyssey van to be shipped to Maui for Read Aloud America use.
Gaines personally purchased the vehicle because program funds are still inadequate for such an expense. On the same day, Gaines was approached by a donor who wishes to remain anonymous. This donor handed Gaines a check for $50,000.
The stipulation was the use of these funds to continue the nonprofit to operate while seeking grants and funding for future school programs.
Operations Director Larry Laird is in the process of writing and submitting the grant applications for such funding.
With the arrival of the new van, Read Aloud America can safely make the monthly trip to Hana for the 21st Century Grant programs without having to make the trip in rental vans.
Read Aloud America is so grateful to The Maui News for the feature article regarding our financial plight. We are hoping that the pending grant applications and other donations will be fruitful so that we may continue to bring our evening family literacy program back to schools on Maui.
For more information about Read Aloud America programs and how you, your organization or business can help, please go to the Read Aloud America website: www.readaloudamerica.org.
* Joanne Laird serves as the Maui County program director and presenter for Read Aloud America.

This week, a 5-year-old Internet sensation named Tsung Tsung shut down the conspiracy theorists of YouTube with a live performance of the fast-paced Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov composition, "Flight Of The Bumblebee" on Ellen.
There were a few big differences between this, Tsung's U.S. television debut, and the viral video from the fall that introduced us to the Hong Kong talent. Tsung was noticeably less smiley than he was when we first fell in love. In fact, he was almost deadly serious, clad in a snazzy white tux instead of his usual pajamas. Luckily all his dramatic moves were still there, including a new closer he whipped out in which he throws his hands up "like a gymnast after a golden Olympic performance."
Check out the video above, which includes a brief, translated interview with Tsung, and let us know what you think of his talents in the comments.

Stephen King's novel, Christine, a story about an evil, killer ghost car that's running people over; is exactly what I'm talking about.
That's the brilliance of it: take an idea so ridiculous that if it actually happened to you, nobody would ever believe you.
Possessed car running over people you know? Who are you going to tell? Even the most open-minded dude on the planet is going to laugh in your face, so the entire novel has this sense of isolation for our protagonist. It's him versus something that even he doesn't believe in. The absurdity of the situation feels more like a nightmare than a joke.
Best of all, underneath the horror story, Christine is a bromance. Arnie and Dennis, the two main characters could have carried this book without the supernatural car, and I would have read it front to back and loved it. The starting chapters are some of my favorites:
In the dim glow of the moon and a nearby streetlight, his face looked ravaged and haglike. He was like a stranger to me then. He was off walking in whatever cold places of the universe a fun-loving God reserves for people like him. I didn't know him. I didn't want to know him. I could only sit there helplessly and hope that the Arnie I did know would come back. After a while, he did. - SK

Trailer Park Friday: Muppets, Catching Fire, Coldtowns & More/
If you missed it this morning, we featured a trailer for The Enchanted as part of Elaine Cantrell's blog tour as a sort of special early edition of Trailer Park Friday. Here's your regularly scheduled Trailer Park with some really exciting new stuff to point your eyeballs at.
First another Ender's Game trailer was released earlier this week and it's epic. This movie comes out November 1, which is too far away.
The Muppets was surprisingly adorable and fun, so I have a fair amount of excitement for the next one even if it's lacking the two strengths of the last movie - no Bret McKenzie music or Jason Segel. Even though it looks fun. Muppets Most Wanted comes out on March 21, 2014 and here is the teaser trailer.
Everyone and their mom has probably already seen this international trailer for Catching Fire, but here it is because it's making me a little bit excited about this sequel to a movie that I thought was just meh. It comes out November 22.
Now to a couple of book trailers. I got a come of Night Film at Comic Con and it looked really interesting. This trailer is bumping the book up higher on my TBR pile. It comes out on August 20.
And another book I got at Comic Con - The Coldest Girl in Cold Town. I know there are a lot of people excited about this one by Holly Black. It comes out September 3.
What trailers have caught your eye recently? I'm always looking for new fun videos, so link them up in the comments.

Fun Alphabet Ice Game
Inside: Ice play for kids; the best summer water fun!
If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times.
The only thing better than kids and water is kids and ice.
My four-year-old and three-year-old will entertain themselves with water play ALL. DAY. LONG.
Typically, the fun begins with water play, and slowly progresses to, "What can we freeze?".
Hours later, they now want to see what they can melt. It is this endless cycle that gives me plenty of time to catch my breath midday.
You see, sensory play is the gift that keeps on giving.
There is no definitive way to play, offers oodles amounts of inquiry-based learning, and gives you that mom break that is truly needed. A win for all.
RELATED: Curious how to start activities with your kids? START HERE.
This ice play for kids game begins with alphabet ice matching and ends in exploration.
I can read your mind.
"Where did you get those FABULOUS ICE TRAYS?"
You know I've got you covered.
Days with Grey is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. Read more about these links in my disclosure policy.
Here's the setup - the night before
I do have one rule. You know how you never wake a sleeping baby? Well, think the same with your preschoolers. Never disrupt independent play for something you set up.
Do these simple steps the night before so you have something in your back pocket to pull out as needed.
Mix water with food coloring.
Pour water into your alphabet molds.
Write the alphabet in random order on your white paper roll.
That's all! If I could guess how long this takes me, I would say 6 minutes. Multiply that by 5 and that is how long your children will be engaged the following day.
RELATED: You will love this ABC book list by Happily Ever Elephants!
Let's get matching the alphabet!
Like Breakfast Invitations, I like to let my preschoolers take a look at the setup without me explaining what to do. - This is not easy to do. I have to make a conscious decision to keep my mouth closed.
If your preschooler does not come up with what to do first, simply prompt with:
"It looks like you have a lot of letters in front of you! I wonder what we can do with these alphabet ice letters if we pop them out of the ice tray. Let's take a look at what we have."
"Do you see any matches? You're right! That is an upper case B! Where should we place it?"
A large part of teaching children is offering a wide-eyed question about what is in front of them, and allowing children to come up with the answers. Play dumb. Ask questions that do not require a yes or no answer.
Once all the ice letters are matched, your preschooler can now play with the ice and investigate how it melts.
Why practice identifying letters now?
By Kindergarten, children will be asked to recognize and name all upper- and lowercase letters of the alphabet.
You can begin to explore this now to give your preschooler a head start! Expose your preschooler so letters of the alphabet look familiar upon entering Kindergarten.

ZOLL® Medical Corporation has partnered with militaries worldwide for over 30 years, with an emphasis on advancing resuscitation and acute critical care technology. ZOLL's traditional products have focused on defibrillation and monitoring, circulation and CPR feedback, data management, fluid resuscitation, and temperature management.
In October 2014, ZOLL acquired Impact Instrumentation's line of respiratory care products. Impact Instrumentation has been designing and manufacturing portable and automatic emergency ventilators, portable aspirators, custom mounting systems, and specialized testing systems for over 35 years. Products include the Uni-vent® Series of portable critical care ventilators, and the Ultra-lite® Series of portable aspirators, which are used aboard ships, aircraft, and other military medical and transport services. These products complement ZOLL's comprehensive portfolio of innovative lifesaving equipment for military applications worldwide.
Impact Ventilators Join the ZOLL Military Portfolio
Impact ventilators have been the standard in military environments for over 30 years. The latest addition to the ventilation portfolio is the 731 Series Model EMV+. This ventilator lever-ages the technology the military has come to expect from the Impact 754 Eagle™, while providing a portable ventilator that is rich in features, small in size, durable, and intuitive to use. With its multiple modes of operation (AC, SIMV, CPAP and BiPAP), it can support patients, infants through adults, presenting with significant respiratory pathology.
The 731 Series ventilators have achieved airworthiness certification for both fixed and rotary-winged aircraft, a requirement for militaries worldwide. Based upon input from the military, the 731 Series was designed with a broad operational temperature range, a high IP rating (IPX4), an NVG-compatible mode, and real altitude compensation that automatically adjusts over a range of –610 to 7620 meters (–2,000 to 25,000 feet.)
Since power availability is always a challenge in a deployed environment, the 731 was designed to run for a minimum of 10 hours and can be charged in approximately 2 hours. To minimize its dependence on an external source of oxygen, the 731 has a high performance internal compressor and oxygen control system that can deliver 100 liters/min of continuous flow. Our Smart Help™ display helps users to identify and resolve alarms when they occur. All of this capability is provided in a lightweight configuration weighing only 4.3 kg (9.5 lbs.)
Expanding ZOLL's Military Portfolio
The Impact 731 Series Ventilator and Ultra-lite® Model 326 Aspirator, both the standard of care within the military, now join the Propaq, the standard in military monitoring and defibrillation. ZOLL's Propaq® MD Monitor/ Defibrillator and the Propaq M Monitor, are the next generation versions of the Propaq Encore 206 Monitor, with more advanced monitoring parameters and robust data communications. With over 12,000 Propaq monitors in use throughout the U.S. and NATO militaries, Propaq is the trusted and proven standard of care vital signs monitor.
Trusted and Proven
The Propaq MD/M was developed specifically to meet the unique needs of the military worldwide. Development of this product line was a joint undertaking between the Department of Defense and a cooperative arrangement between Welch Allyn and ZOLL.
ZOLL's Propaq MD/M provides everything the military expects from a Propaq, trusted and proven technology, but now available with more features. The Propaq MD/M both come with 12-lead capability with interpretation, two continuous temperatures, motion-tolerant NIBP, and more importantly, three invasive pressures. For those who have always desired a Propaq with defibrillation, an optional defibrillator and pacer are available on the Propaq MD. No longer is there a need to deploy with a vital signs monitor, defibrillator, and an ICP monitor. The Propaq MD provides all this capability and more in a single device. The Propaq MD/M operates continuously with a long battery life (over 7.5 hrs. with the Propaq M), and its "hot swappable" battery design is unique to the ZOLL Propaqs.
ZOLL has incorporated the latest Masimo rainbow® SET technology into the Propaq M and Propaq MD. Total haemoglobin (SpHb), arterial oxygen content (SpOC) and pleth variability index (PVI) are the latest clinical parameters that have been added to the Propaq. ZOLL also entered into a development agreement with Reflectance Medical Inc. to incorporate a ruggedized version of the Mobile CareGuide™ sensor into the Propaq. The CareGuide provides clinicians with the ability to non-invasively measure SmO2 for early identification of haemorrhagia and efficacy of resuscitation and noninvasive pHm for efficacy of resuscitation to reverse acidosis or as a possible adjunct to assessing septic shock.
Compact Yet Rugged
Minimizing size, weight and cube is critical for the military. The new Propaqs are no exception. The Propaq MD is 60 percent smaller and 40 percent lighter than other similar monitor/ defibrillators. Propaq is synonymous with ruggedness. De-signed for the austere environment, both the Propaq MD and M have an IP55 rating, which is the industry's highest ingress protection against water and dust. The extra-large multifunction display with a normal, daylight, and NVG settings, allows optimal viewing regardless of the operating environment. Additionally, the Propaq MD offers a robust data management capability integrated into the most fully featured monitor/ defibrillation on the market today.
Advanced Data
Communication of critical vital signs data is essential to improving patient outcomes. Even more important is the quality of the vital signs data being transmitted. The Propaq MD/M addresses both of these needs. The Propaq, for the first time, has an open data architecture, ideal for the communication needs of the military. Data is easily transmitted from the device using either a wired or wireless connection. By partnering with key data integration companies, ZOLL can offer the ideal telemedicine solution needed in today's theatre of operation. Data from the ZOLL Propaq MD/M can remain with the patient or the data can be transmitted to the receiving facility prior to the arrival of the wounded warrior. It is ZOLL's goal to help facilitate the transfer of the complete medical record flowing into the military's EMR system.
Remote Viewing
With the increasing desire to adopt telemedicine into the military environment, a new feature has been developed for the Propaq line of monitors and defibrillators. Each Propaq has the ability to be remotely viewed. Advancements in the dedicated communication processor within each Propaq now allows for streaming of both vital signs and waveform data. Information from up to 40 individual Propaqs can be viewed at a single remote location. Customized patient reports generated on the individual Propaq, can be requested remotely. This capability is ideally suited in casualty evacuations / air transports, disaster medicine or any military scenario where monitoring multiple patients at the same time is required.
Future Developments
ZOLL continues to evaluate technologies to support the needs of the military and improve combat casualty care. In January 2015, ZOLL acquired Advanced Circulatory Systems, Inc., which develops technologies to non-invasively increase circulation. These innovative technologies use the body's own mechanisms to treat hypertension and shock without the use of pharmaceutical or other agents. This non-invasive therapy can potentially protect the heart, brain, and other vital organs when blood flow is compromised.
ZOLL continues to focus on delivering mission-ready technology that provides clinically accurate and reliable information for optimizing combat casualty care on the battlefield. ZOLL consistently delivers technologically advanced products driven by customer requirements without compromising our commitment and focus on improving clinical outcomes. As a global company and leading military supplier, ZOLL is proud to pro-vide innovative and reliable products that help improve health care from point of injury to definitive care for military service members.

Three tips to calm Chicken Little
I've worked with a number of Chicken Littles over the years. You know them – employees who become almost hysterical in their reaction to feedback or their belief that organizational or team disaster is imminent. These people are often unreasonably afraid. Worse yet, they often try to incite fear in those around them. So what can a leader do to calm Chicken Little?
Work is a battlefield when small business owners romance an employee
Valentine's Day always brings up the question of whether office romances should be banned. While a flat-out ban is not a necessity, employers need to worry when a supervisor gets involved with a direct report. If the employee feels mistreated, a sexual harassment complaint and lawsuit are just waiting to happen. The possibility of legal trouble is even more likely in a small business, when an owner gets involved with an employee.
