This interesting idea came through my email today: Dr. Mr. Obama, Like most folks in this country, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck in my case, I am required to pass a […]

There is a stunner of a poll out today from Fox News (story here, poll here). It shows some very bad numbers for our young President and the Democrats in Congress. Check out this data (click to enlarge): With Republicans Obama went from an approve-disapprove differential of -34% (28/62) in early June to a -71% […]

Major Update Below Alternative Title: Rise of The Petulant Partisans Senator Olympia Snowe has risen to the challenge of being a political leader for the people in her efforts to remain in the fight over  which health care reform options could become law. Unlike those who went the petulant partisan route and took their marbles […]

Finally, someone on the left was honest enough to tell the truth about government rationed health care. The truth that, in order to cut costs and provide better care for many, others will have to go without. Robert Reich, formerly of the Clinton administration, was quite blunt in 2007 when he spoke on the subject […]

His promises were so simple they bordered on fiction. He was going […]

Support for a health care bill has been replaced by demanding protections for the status quo: Sixty-three percent (63%) of voters nationwide say guaranteeing that no one is forced to change their health insurance coverage is a higher priority than giving consumers the choice of a “public option” health insurance company. The latest Rasmussen Reports […]

President Obama made a huge blunder this summer when he said government run health care could never compete with private health care – and then compared Fed Ex/UPS to the US Post Office. He rightfully noticed USPS is in constant financial trouble and would probably be out of business if it had to compete with […]

Good news out of the Senate Finance Committee: A key Senate panel on Tuesday voted against creating a new government health insurance plan to compete with the private market. The 15-to-8 vote in the Senate Finance Committee could forecast the fate of the public option in the Senate as a whole. Not even close. This should […]

No one can argue that the liberal left is limited in imagination. The ideas and myths they conjure up border on the insane. From believing Bush and Cheney were listening in on their lame ramblings, to the Chicken Little cries of doom over global warming after a decade of global cooling, they have some created […]
