Socialized health care is great for the healthy. For the ill and elderly it’s another story.

July 6, 2009

I wish someone would poll the ill people in nations with socialized health care. Chances are we wouldn’t hear about how much they love their free health care. The latest story: In Australia a woman who has been unwell and has a family history of colon cancer was told she has to wait at...

Dental coverage in Porkulus

My husband recently quit his job to start his own small business. If you count his job, his employee and the position that opened up when he quit, he’s created three jobs! All without the help of President Obama. With any luck Obama’s policies won’t kill the small business that my husband has worked so hard to...

When the Iranian regime started to violently crack down on peaceful protestors, Barack Obama went remained silent for days, saying he didn’t want to meddle. But he has no problem meddling in the affairs of Honduras. Tomorrow Hillary Clinton will meet with ousted Honduras President Zelaya. For Obama, meddling is okay as long as...

Obama feeds Russian delusions

July 6, 2009
By

From the UK Telegraph, via Free Republic: Far from recovering its status as a great nation, or even extending its global influence like China or India, Russia is locked in long-term decline. We take no pleasure in pointing this out, for the achievements of the Russian people are exceptional: their literature is justifiably renowned...

Video: John Ziegler discusses Sarah Palin’s resignation

July 6, 2009
By

John Ziegler talked to Bill O’Reilly about Sarah Palin’s resignation. He argues that it simply became impossible for Palin to do her job thanks to the smears from the media and other left wing operatives. Bill O’Reilly seems to equate Sarah Palin’s situation with his own, which is just a bone-headed, self-centered analogy. Ziegler...

Americans moving to the right?

July 6, 2009
By

Gallop reports that Americans overwhelmingly report a shift to the right ideologically. Despite the results of the 2008 presidential election, Americans, by a 2-to-1 margin, say their political views in recent years have become more conservative rather than more liberal, 39% to 18%, with 42% saying they have not changed. While independents and Democrats...

Obamanomics = Spending into Oblivion

Kevin Hassett calls the Obama administration the “most fiscally irresponsible in the history of the US.” That’s an understatement. Hassett believes that California’s fiscal nightmare will serve as a warning to Senate Democrats to pare back Obamacare. I’m not convinced. And even if a few democrats waffle they can still find a few RINO’s like...

By

According to New York Magazine, Governor Paterson is being urged to appoint a Lieutenant Governor in order to break the stalemate in Albany. Supporters of this plan, which Paterson is said to be eyeing, say that combined with a relevant section of the state constitution, the wording clearly gives Paterson the power to make...

Video: Sen. John Cornyn not welcome at Texas Tea Party

July 6, 2009
By

I don’t like the idea of politicians showing up at Tea Parties, especially Republicans that voted for TARP. Apparently, neither do the people of Texas, who booed Senator John Cornyn when he spoke. Unless these politicians show up hat-in-hand to apologize for their complicity in wrecking this republic of ours they should just stay home....

Progressives: Hike the cost of driving to force Americans to use mass transit

July 6, 2009
By

Apparently some democrats only want the very wealthy in America to retain the luxury of owning and driving an automobile. From the Wall Street Journal: What is the appropriate response to Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood, who as General Motors prepared to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection declared that he wants to “coerce...

The press suddenly vetting Obama

July 6, 2009
By

President Obama is in Russia to negotiate an arms control treaty. Here at home, the media finally did some digging into Obama’s records from Columbia University and what’s been found reveals that Obama was a student radical, as Andy McCarthy calls him.  During the campaign, I wrote a piece called “Why Won’t Obama Talk...

Schumer promises public option in health care, Biden promises thug tactics when health care bill makes it to conference

July 6, 2009
By

Anybody who has been paying attention is aware that a ‘public option’ in health care will force private insurance companies out of business. But New York Senator Charles Schumer doesn’t care and promises a public option in the Senate’s health care bill. Some republicans and centrist democrats have proposed health care cooperatives, which would...

Does Colin Powell have a HopeandChange hangover?

July 6, 2009
By

Did Colin Powell sell out his soul and his country when he endorsed Barack Obama? What does Powell stand for? A black president? Fiscal responsibility? High taxes? Low taxes? Big government? Limited government? Who knows. If he stood for limited government he never would have endorsed Obama in the first place. Or he never bothered...

A Few Thoughts on Sarah Palin’s Resignation

July 6, 2009
By

Nobody but Sarah Palin can know for sure why she is stepping down from her position as governor of Alaska.  Over the past weekend we were treated to countless pundits weighing in and the opinions pretty much have run the spectrum. She’s taking hits from the left and the right, but she still has plenty...
