I wish I could say I have winning lottery tickets, the keys to a new
car, or that I’m giving away my ticket to Oprah’s show in Australia.
I could tell you I have tickets to see Tampa’s Rays in the playoffs,
but nobody seems to want those, even if the Rays win. (There’s
something in the water on that side of the state.)

No…what I have to tell you is really important. (I think.)

While watching the news during my lunch, I saw that Snooki has a
novel coming out.

Yeh…that Snooki Polizzi…from the Jersey Shore. The name of her
novel is: “The Shore Thing.”

Calling Snooki a novelist is sure to make Norman Mailer come back
from the dead and write a half dozen more books. And you could be
sure that every paragraph would outclass Snooki, who really doesn’t
even know how to dress herself yet, in her mid twenties. She does
know how to get arrested, open a beer can and do shots, but as more
kids age, that skill set diminishes pretty fast, even on the Jersey
Shore.

But what you really need is a signed First Edition, because at some
point, that book will be rarer than a woman in Los Angeles that
hasn’t done Botox. I can just see, years from now, hopefully long
after I’m gone, someone bringing one of those signed First Editions
into “Antiques Roadshow” and the the pony tailed geek, with the
horned rim glasses will say, “Do you have any idea what that’s
worth?”

And the 250 pound heifer, with a striped shirt, will gush, “No…I
got it at a yard sale, for a quarter.”

Then, the pony tailed geek says, “We haven’t seen a copy of that in
decades and…I’ve conferred with my colleagues…and we think, at
auction, it could conservatively go at….$125,000.00!”

The fat woman faints…and then wakes up to find out it was only a
dream and that the book wasn’t any good, anyway.

She could have spent her money on something with some real value,
like my Powerhouse Omega Formula:

But she wasted it on Snooki’s book about …whatever it was about.
But had she spent the money on my pharmaceutical grade fish oil, she
would have had the smarts to know to leave that piece of junk on the
stack, where it belongs. That’s because my formula helps connect all
the important parts of your brain, like the one that screams “NO!”
when you entertain the thought of buying such a worthless bit of
trash.

Snooki is a “novelist.”

The next thing you know, someone will be telling us that our taxes
have not gone up under President Obama. (He actually told a suburban
audience that today.) I guess he forgot to use the word “yet.”

Because in a hundred days or so, they’re going up substantially.

You’d know that, too, if you were taking my Powerhouse Omega
Formula. It just might make you smarter than the average bear:

It’s been a horrible Summer and early Fall for the President. His
approval rating is his lowest ever and the downward spiral shows no
signs of abating. Bob Woodward’s new book shows ugly infighting at
the White House, between pragmatists and the left wing idealogues
and nut jobs that Obama brought to Washington.

Obama’s number two, Rahm Emmanuel, leader of the pragmatists, will
be gone very shortly, so that he can run for Mayor of Chicago. This
will leave a huge void in the Obama machine, because whatever
moderate influence Emmanuel has been able to exert will be gone,
leaving the leftists in complete charge, with Reid and Pelosi to run
ramshackle on the field.

David Axelrod will leave shortly, to crank up Campaign 2012, if
Campaign 2008 ever ends. David Plouffe is coming to plan strategy,
but cleaning up your own mess is different from blaming it on
someone else.

The President is out on the campaign trail, complaining about the
lack of enthusiasm for his policies, and calling out college
students for being apathetic in the face of a tsunami against him.
Jumpin JoJo is telling Democrats to “stop whining.” But without
anything of substance on the teleprompter, this is a very hard sell.

So he’s gone back to the future. In a Rolling Stone article, he says
FOX NEWS is destructive to the long term growth of America. He
compares FOX to the old Hearst newspaper empire and says all FOX is
about is the money.

Let’s revisit history for a moment. When FOX NEWS was started 15
years ago, all three networks and CNN tried to crush it. They didn’t
want anybody telling a different story than they were telling and
they tried, at every opportunity, to drive FOX into the ground. With
their allies in the print media, they didn’t miss a chance to bash
FOX.

Today, it’s a completely different story. More people watch FOX than
any other network. In the cable world, if you combine all the other
networks, they don’t reach half as many people as FOX. In terms of
where people get their news, and whom they trust, it’s FOX again.

The reason is simple. FOX coverage has been fair, while network
coverage and other cable coverage, has been highly slanted. NBC and
CNBC might as well have put on Obama cheerleading outfits. MSNBC’s
reporters are such zealous Obama supporters that they should abandon
the word reporter, and change it to “slobbering supporter.” At CBS,
the perky Katie Couric is a Democratic Party operative.

The problem for the President is that people have figured out what
he is really all about and it ain’t hope and change. He is
completely out of step with the country and his vision is beyond
flawed. Criticizing all his opponents won’t help and criticizing his
own people will only dig the hole deeper.

Being President of the United States is a bit different than being
a community rabble rouser. It’s different than voting “Present” in
the Illinois State Senate and the U.S. Senate. It is more than
standing in front of adoring crowds, preaching to the chorus from
prepared speeches that lacked any substance, whatsoever.

Being President means that somewhere along the line, the wheat gets
separated from the chaff.

The problem for the President…is that most people now realize he
isn’t much of a baker. He may have all of the ingredients he needs,
but he isn’t very good at putting them together. His cakes are dry,
his cookies are too hard and his bread doesn’t rise.

You can talk about the other bakery all day long, but that won’t get
people back to yours.

Speaking of real baked goods, you can compensate for a lot of their
saturated fats with a couple of extra softgels of my Powerhouse
Omega Formula. That’s what I do, when I have a yen for some tasty
pastries, as the occasional off-program treat. It won’t stop the
extra calories, but it will help to balance your blood lipids. As
long as it’s just occasional, you CAN have your cake and eat it,
too:

You may have guessed I’m talking about…prunes, something forced on
me as a child, which I refused to touch for over 30 years, because
of the negative waves associated with them.

The back story is this: Sometime during my grade school years, we
switched from “bring your own lunch,” to having a spanking new
cafeteria, where fat ladies in white uniforms and hair nets cooked
us “hot food.” No one I knew was suffering with the brown bag, or
lunchbox. I guess this was one of those things done in the name of
progress and bragging rights.

The problem was that these “fat broads” couldn’t cook a lick. Their
hamburgers had more in common with Michelin tires than stars. Many
of us continued to bring stuff from home, as the food produced and
served became UFO’s and often landed on shirts and sweaters, ala
Animal House. One of the most despised items on the menu was called
“prune whip,” a sort of stiff concoction of prunes and some other
substance that could be piped out of a tube.

In a word, it was revolting and as I mentioned before, it was three
decades before a prune crossed these lips again. When that happened,
I was old enough to realize that prunes were just like raisins, only
bigger.

That isn’t exactly glamorous, but you can’t find a healthier food.
You also know prunes have a marketing problem, when you see signs
that say “dried plums.”

If you visit your local drugstore, you will notice that entire
aisles are reserved for relieving constipation, which affects
millions of people and can be a serious health problem, if you don’t
get it resolved.

You really don’t need any of the OTC stuff to get yourself regular.
Eating a few prunes, every day, or drinking a small amount of prune
juice daily, will do the trick better than any pharmaceutical.

Prunes contain not just one, but three ingredients, that work
together to keep your digestive system on track. For starters,
prunes are high in insoluble fiber, which is perhaps the key to
preventing constipation. Insoluble fiber isn’t absorbed by the body.
It stays in the digestive tract, where it absorbs large amounts of
water, increasing bulk, which helps everything go smoothly.

Prunes also contain soluble fiber, the type that lowers cholesterol
and the risk of heart disease.

Lastly, prunes contain a compound called dihydroxyphenlisatin (try
wrapping your tongue around that a few times) which stimulates the
intestine, causing it to contract. This process is essential for
regularity.

If you’re eating prunes for regularity, about 5 a day is all you
need. If you would rather drink prune juice, six ounces is all you
need. This is a whole lot cheaper than taking OTC, or even
prescription drugs, for a simple problem with a natural solution.

Meanwhile, remember to take my Powerhouse Omega Formula, a
pharmaceutical grade fish oil with an enteric coating, which
eliminates “fish burps.” Two softgels in the morning, two in the
evening, and you’ll be on your way to better health:

P.S. When I was a senior in high school, their was a cafeteria
revolt at my grade school. It seems that a number of 8th grade boys
filled the cafeteria supervisor’s car with “prune whip.” From what
I hear, it never made another appearance on the school menu.

That question is fairly broad, but the answer to it is tacked up on
my bulletin board. The soon-to-be House Minority Leader said, “We
have to pass the bill (Health Care Reform) so that you can find out
what’s in it.”

Let me repeat that: “We have to pass the bill so that you can find
out what’s in it.”

Now, one of the President’s and his chief promoters’ (Reid and
Pelosi) big lies… was that there would be no tax increase on the
middle class. When the Bush tax cuts expire on December 31st, that
will be only the first of the tax increases foisted on the public.

Many new taxes are hiding in the 2,800 page bill, which is of course
why the Democrats didn’t want anybody to read it. The President
said, time and again and again, that the public just had the wrong
perception of what he was trying to do.

Here’s a tax the Democrats didn’t tell anyone about.

Starting in 2013, there will be a 3.8% tax on all income from home
sales and rental property. This could end up costing you quite a bit
of your money and it applies to more than just houses. It is a tax
on “unearned income,” which is any income you receive for which you
are not directly working.

This includes interest you receive on a savings account, dividends
from stocks, rental income from a property you own, social security
income, unemployment checks, child support and income you make from
selling your home.

The Democratic hypocrisy here is breathtaking. Let’s see about
savings accounts…for instance.

The government is basically lending banks money now, at 0% interest.
Banks are paying you 2% on your money (I’m using round figures,
here.) Let’s say you have 100K in a savings account, at 2%. (Oh, I
forgot to tell you that banks can, and are, making substantially
more for lending out your money.) They are also charging extremely
high fees for everything they do. Then…they don’t have to pay the
government anything for lending them large sums of money and, as a
result, they are making truckloads of cash, for which they aren’t
paying anything.

So who gets taxed? You do. You’ll owe the government an additional
3.8% of any money the bank pays you.

If you sell your house for $300K, you automatically qualify as rich,
even though you might be selling one house, to pay for another and
might have the money all of one day. This tax money goes directly to
large pharmaceutical companies and health conglomerates. (Hey…
weren’t these the evil bastards Obama was going to bring down?)

What is going on here is another Democratic scam, or money transfer.
The Democrats are stealing from the middle class, to give money to
the very rich.

How do you beat the system? Stop working, stop taking care of
yourself and let everybody else pick up the tab. That’s the Obama
way. And by the way, there is no guarantee you’ll get the benefits
Obama promised. They’ll have to be reviewed by a bureaucrat, to see
if you’re worthy of care, or you should just die, making everything
simple.

And then, the government will want 55% of whatever you have left.

The late Bill Buckley said he would rather be governed by the first
535 names in any phonebook, rather than by a Democratic Congress…
and he was right.

It’s no wonder the Democrats did this bill in secret. Now, we can
only hope for it’s repeal.

In the mean time, watch what you eat, get some exercise, some
sunshine and take my Powerhouse Omega Formula:

I’m subscribed to a bunch of health publications and they all have
headlines a bit like the one I am using today: “Ten Tummy Tightening
Tricks.” I added the words “Rolled Into One,” because you have to
start somewhere and it isn’t necessarily in the gym.

In the article “Ten Tummy Tightening Tricks,” you were presented
with ten different exercises by beautiful fitness models, who don’t
have an ounce of flab anywhere near them and that, for you and me,
just isn’t realistic.

I’m in reasonably good shape, after more than a year of eating
differently and getting quite a bit of exercise. But of those ten
exercises presented, I know for sure that I can’t do three of them,
no matter how good they look on the models.

The biggest trick in the weight loss business is changing your
lifestyle, which only about five per cent of people do. You can lose
weight on any diet, but the key isn’t losing it…it’s keeping it
off.

It means you have to make permanent changes in the way you eat.

Here’s one thing I learned that you need to know and follow, to be
successful at keeping weight off. For instance, if bread is your
nemesis, like it was mine, you can’t keep it in the house. That
means you simply don’t buy it and bring it home. If it isn’t there,
you can’t possibly eat it. The same goes for cookies, cake, pastries
and frozen pizza. They’re all bread, of one sort or other. Take a
deep breath at the store, inhale the aroma and leave it on the
shelf, or in the refrigerator case.

That will certainly tighten your tummy in a hurry. Exercise will
help too, but the big trick is always about what you use for fuel.
The better your fuel, the better your results.

This is true of race cars and certainly of athletes. But it works
for everyone else, too.

When you add my Powerhouse Omega Formula to good fuel, you’ll really
start to get results. Over time, many minor aches and pains could
disappear. Your arteries could function better and your mind could
be clearer. Your eyes might just work a bit better. And you may be
able to do all ten of those exercises… some day.

But it all starts with better fuel and a little bit of
supplementing:
