A Crazy Santorum Obamacare Conspiracy Theory

Like many others of his party, Rick Santorum has decided to join the crazed Obamacare conspiracy circle, where the members join hands, drink spiked Kool-Aid, and sing the new song "Kumbaya Against Gays" in unison.

At a Young Americans for Freedom event last Friday, Santorum said the following during a speech he made:

"It's actually a pretty clever system (Obamacare). Take care of the people who can vote and people who can't vote, get rid of them as quickly as possible by not giving them care so they can't vote against you."

I could tear this conspiracy theory apart a number of different ways, but will decide to go the logic route this time.

What Rick Santorum is implying is that Obamacare will take care of those whom can vote, but will kill those whom can't vote as quickly as possible, so that these very people can't vote against you.

Let's think about this for a minute, which is approximately sixty seconds longer than Santorum obviously thought about matters before speaking. The legal voting age is 18, so according to Rick Santorum, it's President Obama's goal to kill those under 18 and perhaps minorities, women, and elders in certain states, due to them having problems voting because of voter suppression laws passed by the Republican Party. Yeah, that makes a lot of sense...

So, mixing Rick Santorum's conspiracy theory with facts, here's our basic breakdown:

1) Obamacare will take care of people whom can vote and do away with people whom can't vote.

2) The Republican Party passes voter suppression laws to make it more difficult for typical Democratic voters, such as women and minorities, to cast their votes.

3) Due to all this, it's apparent that President Obama's ultimate goal with Obamacare is for it to kill many Democratic voters which would help to keep it as law.

Does that all sound about right, Mr. Santorum? In your own demented mind anyway?

It would have made a lot more sense if Santourm had altered his statement slightly so that it centered around the GOP's voter suppression efforts, and he said this:

"It's actually a pretty clever system (voter suppression). Take care of the people who will vote for you and people who won't vote for you, get rid of them as quickly as possible by not giving them the opportunity so they can't vote against you."

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

The difference between "looking" and "checking out"

I may be way off with these numbers, but it's my approximation that at least 75% of individuals whom are involved in a serious relationship feel it's perfectly acceptable to "check out" members of the opposite sex they're not involved with. Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter. I hadn't thought about this matter for a while, but since I've been dating a woman for about 8 months, the topic has been pondered about some. When reading or hearing others discuss this very issue, I often times hear comments similar to the following: "It's human nature to look." "There's nothing wrong with checking others out. I'm sure he/she does it too!" "It's fine to do it. Just don't tell your boyfriend/girlfriend about it or do it in front of them!" "It's natural to find people attractive." When observing the array of comments, I i...
