Video: Constituents laugh out loud at Barney Frank

August 18, 2009
By

If only for one night I wish I lived in Massachusetts. Fox News’s Griff Jenkins reported on Barney Frank’s town hall meeting. Listen to the people laugh at him when he says Medicare isn’t bankrupt. And then he blames the health care problem on the war in Iraq. Was that the case when HillaryCare...

Obama to shift health care message yet again! Time to get your mob on!

August 18, 2009
By

It started out as health care reform. That didn’t poll so well so it became health insurance reform. Demonizing insurance companies is fun! Oh, and the old “we need to do this now to save the economy” wasn’t going over so well, either. None of those tactics worked, so the message will change again....

August 18, 2009
By

The Wall Street Journal reported that the Obama administration will invest $2 billion (or more) in drilling off the shores of Brazil, of all places. The left does all they can to keep us from exploring off our own shores. Yet we’re suddenly investing $2 billion – that we don’t have – in a Brazilian oil company? The...

In Great Britain a woman gave birth to her daughter on a sidewalk because she was refused an ambulance. Ms Blake said she started going into labour at about 7.15am on Sunday, August 2. She said: “I phoned up the Royal Infirmary, it’s just across the road, and they said to go into a...

Shep Smith throws hissy fit over WH flip flop on public option

August 18, 2009
By

The White House and President Obama have flip flopped on a number of issues. So why is Shep so upset about the public option? Is it simply because the president isn’t keeping his promises or because Shep really, really wants the public option? Not that I mind the left’s anger at not getting their...

Robert Novak RIP (1931 to 2009) – Updated

August 18, 2009
By

Robert Novak was a one of a kind journalist. As you can imagine, a slew of tributes to the man has been released since his death was announced earlier today. My favorite quote came from the Chicago Sun-Times: He was always eager to share his passion for public policy and politics. In speeches to...

August 18, 2009
By

Thousands of American seniors are tearing up their AARP cards and canceling their memberships. Good for them! But is there an alternative to AARP? I never gave it much thought since I’m quite a few years away from retirement. But hearing about AARP members giving up on the AARP made me curious. I found...

Hey Americans – Katie Couric thinks you’re ignorant!

August 18, 2009
By

Just what does Katie Couric think you are going to think when you turn on your TV and hear her calling you ignorant? I like Maggie’s take on it: CBS’ Katie Couric treats us to a page from her “notebook,” which polls say no one cares about these days. Townhalls are a “sideshow,” she...
