Barack Obama loves to try to blame George Bush for our deficits
and out of control spending, as if Democratic control of Congress
for the last several years, and Obama’s control of the budget this
year, had nothing to do with it. So how will Obama blame Bush for
this:
The Democratic-controlled...
Here are some obligatory Sarah Palin morning posts, because while you were sleeping, Palin was inching closer to Barack Obama in the polls, driving the nutroots crazy, getting positive late-night coverage for a change (that should really scare the PDS crowd), and generally having fun:
The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and affiliated Susan G. Komen for the Cure spearhead efforts to raise funds for and awareness of breast cancer. Joe Lieberman’s wife, Hadassah, has a compensated position as a “global ambassador.”
But Joe Lieberman doesn’t tow the leftist line on nationalizing health care, so Hadassah...
Kathleen Parker, one of many swooning over Obama’s
Oslo speech,
observes:
Rising to the occasion, he managed to redeem himself at a low point in his popularity by reminding Americans of what is best about...
The Speech. In Oslo. Oh my. He didn’t apologize, as such. He spoke of a “just war.” Of his obligation as President to defend the country. As if this all were a revelation.
Ooooh. Aaaah. Says the vast right-wing conspiracy, in many and surprising places.
It’s all relative to what we expected.
We expected...
How often have we heard the left-wing blogs blather about the greatness of Medicare. How often do we hear how happy people are with Medicare, and how that proves that government run health plans should be extended to everyone.
But there is a big, ugly lie underneath those arguments. Medicare underpays doctors...
Harry Reid needs more than a weekend off. Perhaps we should, in the national interest, schedule a series of fundraisers for Reid running through the end of the year.
I say this because scheduling a fundraiser for Reid appears to be the only way to get him to take a time out...
Over the summer I repeatedly sounded the alarm about one
particular aspect of the Democratic health care proposals, the
mandate that individuals purchase insurance under threat of penalty
or incarceration. At the time I noted the unprecedented nature of
the mandate, in my post
Taxing Your Mere Existence:
This tax, though, is...
The football games will run really, really late on Sunday, then I’ll fall asleep for an hour, and it will all be over:
Added: Looks like an hour of sleep will not get me
through the night:
No, not another Tiger Woods post. A “pick me up” as in lifting my spirits just a little as I read the headlines about Harry Reid desperately trying to talk his way into something, anything, Barack Obama can sign prior to the State of the Union address in January.
From a post...
The Telegraph in Britain has a story about a massive iceberg which broke...
Senator Orrin Hatch has written a Hanukkah song. The background is here. Thanks, Orrin.
There’s a lesson to be learned here, but unfortunately the Jewish community will not learn it because it is so deep in...
No one gives Scott Brown, the Republican primary winner, much chance at defeating Martha Coakley, the Democratic nominee. It’s Massachusetts, and it’s to fill Ted Kennedy’s seat.
But keep an eye on Massachusetts. It’s a special election, and turnout could be low as it was in the primaries, which gives the party...
In recent days Democrats started floating the idea of a “Medicare Buy-In” proposal, and as of last night, there appears to be a deal, although the details are not fully known. I addressed the lack of merits in a prior post.
What is critical is that this is being done behind closed...
