It’s an Obsession…

it is nearly an obsession for myself. I had to post this.

The Connecticut personal-injury lawyer cracked three vertebrae when he slipped during a race last December. He pulled a hamstring in Tampa two months later, and again in Mississippi a week after that. He nearly passed out in the parched hills of South Dakota in August, finishing last by two hours. In October, he got lost in the woods of Indiana when organizers cleared away the markers. “It’s an obsession,” he says. “No different than gambling, drinking or doing drugs.”
Mr. DeFronzo is part of a proud subculture of self-styled “mega marathoners,” people who run hundreds of the 26.2-mile races. Three Germans, a Finn and a Japanese woman are known to have clocked more than 1,000 marathons apiece — that is 26,200 miles, about 1,300 miles more than the circumference of the earth. The record holder, 74-year-old Horst Preisler, has run 1,636 marathons.

America’s Priorities, by the Beltway Elite

Leave a comment
This is a great article that reminds me of the same problem Jesus found in His day. To the religious elite (the Pharisees) He had to ask…

Mark 3:4 Is it lawful to do good or to do harm on the Sabbath, to save a life or to kill?

The Pharisees could do amazing things. They could swallow a camel and strain at gnats. They could kill, but not heal on the Sabbath. It was there nature. Apparently they had children for they are with us this day.

“You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies. John 8:44

“America’s Priorities,” by the Beltway elite

Endless war in Afghanistan is an absolute necessity. Health care for Americans is a luxury that can wait.

By Glenn Greenwald
the Post demands that Obama’s health care plan not be paid for with borrowed money, yet the very same Post Editors vocally support escalation in Afghanistan without specifying how it should be paid for.

Reality Check on Health Care Reform from the Whitehouse

Leave a comment
clipped from www.whitehouse.gov

Today the White House is rolling out a new website that focuses on what reform really means for you and your family, debunks some common myths along the way and provides you with online tools and content to share the facts with friends, family and anyone else in your social network.
The first set of videos addresses a wide scope of topics and debunks some of those common myths:

  • Domestic Policy Council Director Melody Barnes tackles a nasty rumor about euthanasia and clearly describes how reform helps families.
    		•

  • Kavita Patel, M.D., a doctor serving in the White House’s Office of Public Engagement, explains that health care rationing is happening right now and how reform gives control back to patients and doctors.
    		•

  • Robert Kocher, M.D., a doctor serving on the National Economic Council, debunks the myth that health insurance reform will be financed by cutting Medicare benefits.

    — The United States is
    the only industrialized nation in the world in which a citizen can get sick and
    lose everything they’ve worked for their entire life. More than half of all bankruptcies list health care bills as a cause.
    — The United States is
    the only industrialized nation in the world in which people die because they
    can’t afford a doctor.
    — The United States is
    the only industrialized nation in the world in which those most
    likely to need medical care are currently actually forbidden pay into it. People who actually need health care are actually refused coverage.
    — The United States is the only country in the world in which a private, for-profit insurance company can overrule a doctor-patient treatment decision, and leave both doctor and patient with no recourse.
    — The United States
    pays far more per capita for health care than any other country in the world,
    even though nearly a quarter of the population is not covered at any given
    time.

    Every once in awhile, those of us who watch the big picture and report to you that government is planning something REALLY bad, are vindicated. Such is the case right now.

    They have no choice but to kill off a whole slew of “useless eaters, most of whom live in our major cities. They know that unless they kill them off, there will be so much social chaos that the government will fall or be overthrown and they definitely don’t want that to happen.

    The fact that a “flu” epidemic has broken out in the northern hemisphere in springtime is astonishing.
