The New York Times’ recently asserted that Al Qaeda had no provable involvement in the September 11, 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate. Its author,David Kirkpatrick, went on to write that that the attack was fueled by anger at an American-made anti-Islamic video, as the Obama administration first claimed

No, this is no joke nor is it some new book coming out on the market. It is a real story and it results are indisputable. However, after reading the article, I must ask, are we going too far? I understand that mankind’s innate drive is to learn, create and seemingly to be God-like in nature. But we must ask ourselves: just because we can do something, is it right?
The article is a little perturbing in that it acts as if this is a great breakthrough in science. When, in fact, the introduction of genes and gene manipulation is by-far nothing new. We have been successfully placing genes into plants, animals and even humans for many years. Though it seems benign and almost a playful-like experiment, it has far-reaching implications.
Let me backtrack first before continuing with my thought. Our understanding of genetics has changed significantly since the turn of the century. No longer do we believe that one gene creates one protein. In fact, we now know that one gene can possibly produce multiple proteins and even possibly cause DNA within the cell to act differently. For example, the gene is transcribed into a messenger RNA (mRNA). This mRNA can possibly turn on and off different, unintended genes, which will cause different, unintended proteins to be formed. The mRNA then gets transcribed into a protein which can do the same possible thing.
What are the implications of these unintended results? Could these pigs now be inedible. Could the gene manipulation unknowingly unleash a virus hidden in the pig’s DNA. Could the presence of these genetically altered pigs now change the ecosystem?
If one recently read the news, you will recall how China just rejected a shipment of US genetically engineered corn. I don’t blame them. This corn has not been tested for safety. This corn has not been fully tested for any new or toxic changes. This corn has not been fully evaluated for its potential harm it could cause to our ecosystem.
Despite all our knowledge with regard to genetics, we are just scratching the surface. It’s like unraveling a code that took over a billion years to write. Not that I’m saying all gene therapy is bad, but I want you all to think about are the potential consequences of this research.

Free Speech is Dead- Duck Dynasty
Free speech was one of the fundamental principles which made our country both unique and great. The founders of our country deemed it so important that it was placed in the very First Amendment to our great Constitution. And yes, the Constitution is not a myth or a figment our some people’s imagination. Although not followed by our tyrannical president, it was in one day the law of the land.
Though you may think I jest, the First Amendment to the Constitution has been systematically dismantled by the left and forgotten by our liberal media. Instead of the First Amendment, we have the PC police. Though not sanctioned by the Constitution or having any legal jurisdiction, it has become more powerful than the IRS itself.
You see, the PC police has their own agenda- an agenda to which all those who disobey will be marginalized, ridiculed and vehemently attacked. And those that do not follow their rule will meet the same fate- like it or not. Free speech is dead. The democrats who once championed the concept of free speech are now the ones behind this PC agenda.
As a history buff, I find this modern day PC police no different from Hitler’s Gestapo. In fact, the differences between the two dwindle by the day. I do not over-exaggerate. Just think if you want to make a non-PC comment. What do you do? Most say it in a hushed tone or confide in only the closest of friends their true feelings. Some look both ways before whispering their comment. Many have become too afraid to speak their mind and remain silent. Don’t tell me none of you experienced what I have just written.
Just look at Duck Dynasty. A&E has suspended Phil Robertson. And for what reason? The answer is obvious. They fear the PC police. Also, following like mindless sheep, now Cracker Barrel is pulling Duck Dynasty merchandise from the shelves. And don’t forget Paula Dean. She is yet another of this year’s assault by the PC police.When I grew up people feared an audit by the IRS. Now, the big fear is getting attacked by the PC police. Both A&E and Cracker Barrel folded without even a fight. They conceded their First Amendment rights- the rights our forefathers and soldiers fought so hard for us to have.
Now is not the time to lie down and have our Constitution desecrated. Now is not the time to roll over and concede defeat to the PC police. Now is the time for us to stand up for our constitutional rights and speak our minds. It does not matter if you agree with Phil Robertson or not. However, it does matter if you believe in the First Amendment to our Constitution. Do not stand idly by and watch Duck Dynasty fall. Speak your mind openly and willingly now before we are the last generation of Americans that ever have the chance to do so again!
The New Reality
My novel, The New Reality, will be out in bookstores May, 2014. As an American who wants to see the next generation become better than ours, I fear the economic debt that looms over their heads will deter this from happening. Worse yet, I fear the debt will,, in essence, make us beholden to China’s every whim and essentially a serf in their growing world, economic domination. Also, as a physician, I watch our medical system slowly dwindle because of the endless laws, governmental regulations and private insurance companies’ greed.
When I look at my kids some day in the future, I want to tell them that either I tried to stop this from happening or was part of the movement that stopped it from occurring. I want to tell them that I did not sit idly by as I watched our democracy crumble, our civil liberties be taken and our economic future be destroyed. The New Reality will be the first of a three book series which will highlight the injustice being perpetrated on the American citizens and potential outcome of an unjust, unchecked political system. Below highlights the book:
Focusing on both our current politically charged environment and world-wide economic crisis, The New Reality follows Alex Pella on a tumultuous journey that projects a potential path of human existence in the 21stcentury. After a virus embedded in our genetic code inadvertently gets released upon the planet, no country is financially prepared to deal with such a disaster. Only the brilliant neuroscientist, Alex Pella, and his intellectual equal, Marissa Ambrosia, have the audacity to attempt finding the cure while simultaneously fending off a foreign, elite military unit sent to stop them. Guided by an ancient code concealed within the Old Testament, they must traverse ancient lands and attempt to solve an age-old biblical riddle in order to save mankind from its own inevitable destruction.

Know Your Enemy
It is important to truly understand your adversary. Unfortunately, as we have discovered, Obama has proven to be the biggest threat to the Constitution, to our democracy and to the future of this nation that our country has ever faced. We have all read about Obama’s close ties to both communists and terrorists in the past. Per his own admission he states that he was a chain smoking, drug seeking college failure.
However, what I have found so intriguing recently is Obama’s great admiration for a man by the name of Saul Alinsky. During his 2008 campaign, he routinely quoted from one of the man’s left-wing books, Rules for Radicals. If this is not anti-American, I don’t know what is. But the story gets worse. In this book that Obama so cherishes there is a dedications at its beginning which reads:
This is the man Obama takes with such high regard-a devil worshiper? I guess it explains why he and his wife sat through Reverend White’s hate filled sermons all those years.
Now, one final bit of information. One other nut-case democrat also took the man in high regard and even wrote her college thesis on him. And do you know who that was? Hillary Clinton
Obamacare gravy Train
Obama’s New Power Grab
Obama proves again that our Constitutional Democracy is dead. In yet another executive order, he bypassed our elected Congress and decided unilaterally to create new legislation. To paraphrase our glorious Vice President: we’ll bypass Congress to ensure the success of our new climate program. (Wait, that’s unconstitutional and in fact both he and Obama should be thrown out of office for such an action!)
Under the title Preparing the United States for the Impact of Climate Change, Obama’s executive order seeks to pour more federal funds into controlling the weather. Now, he wants to put the federal government in charge of actions that could affect the weather. As Fox reported, “President Obama on Friday used his executive powers to elevate and take control of climate change policies in an attempt to streamline sustainability initiatives – and potentially skirt legislative oversight and push a federal agenda on states.”
— Hold back money to communities unless they meet new standards on various items and agendas set by the federal government. For example, using new policies that will encourage communities to rebuild to pre-disaster standards instead of stronger ones.
— A possible mandate to bring sweeping new changes to land use and resource policies.
— More control and refocus of climate change data and use of it to push a new agenda into every priority of the federal government.
— Create the need for a new internal organization for coordination efforts during a government sequestration and possible future shutdowns.
— Create laws whereby the government can seize a private citizen’s properly, levy exorbitant fines to homeowners who do not comply to the new mandates and dictate every aspect of a person’s home life.
Welcome to the New America. Don’t say I didn’t warn you…
NSA Spies on Pope!
Has the NSA no shame? Do they know no boundaries? With recent revelations, the answer to both is a resounding NO.
The National Security Agency spied on the future Pope Francis before and during the Vatican conclave at which he was chosen to succeed Benedict XVI, it was claimed on Wednesday.
I feel like we’re now living in a science fiction novel. Remember how the all seeing eye would monitor everyone at anytime? Well, fiction has become nonfiction. And instead of science fiction it has turned to horror.
There are many implications to the NSA’s intrusions into our civil liberties which can be written. However, what is the scariest thing now is that that their knowledge gives the government complete control over all of us. It may seem far reaching but just think about it. Remember, knowledge is power, and the more knowledge the government has on you the more power it can hold over your head.
You think it may sound paranoid but in reality it isn’t. Humor me for a second to think about the scenario I will put forward. As the government goliath grows daily, so does its rules, regulations and mandates. And you and I can be both see by Obama’s actions and statements, he doesn’t like any dissention. In fact, he wants everyone in line at all times. So what happens now if you step out of line–maybe you want to exert your free speech about our unconstitutional president. Previously, the government realistically could do nothing about public dissent. However now with all their information they have on all of us and their ever expanding IRS system, they can throw the book at anyone at any time. In fact, they have amassed so much information about each and every one of us, they could manufacture facetious charges against any person at any time. Just think of the spin they could make on any of our personal information. Just think of the charges they could trump up. The possibilities are endless.
We’ve already seen that people who’ve spoken against Obama get suddenly audited. Is it fair or constitutional? No but it is happening. So now with the government watching at all times and with the fear of negative repercussions against dissent, people will follow their rules, laws and mandates without exception. Dissent will be minimized. They will be able to shove any progressive ludicrous program down our throats without a single concern.

Neil Cavuto on Obamacare
I have always viewed Neil Cavuto as a straight shooter. Also I have reviewed him as apolitical. In fact, I have watched his showed and have never found it to be biased. With that in mind, please watch one of the best commentaries on Obamacare that I’ve ever seen. Kudos to you Mr. Cavuto.
