I was in the car most of the day, so I haven’t had a chance to post on the Ben Nelson sellout. So here are some initial thoughts: Yes, it is that bad. The Democrats are about to put in place the legislative, regulatory and...

I’ve posted about Alan Grayson before. The Congressman from Florida is the class clown of Congress (that’s including Al Franken in the equation). Grayson not only is nuts, he has dangerous tendencies. As reported at Politico, Grayson is trying to get the Justice Department to...

For our country, and yes, our President. That’s the feeling I had watching Obama’s climate speech in Copenhagen, and the whole theater of the bizarre surrounding it. Read into “sad and embarrassed” what you want. No other brilliant thoughts this afternoon. Not for lack of...

Obama yesterday: “From the discussions we had, it’s clear we are on the precipice of achievement that’s eluded Congresses, presidents for generations — an achievement that will touch the lives of nearly every American.” It appears, from the context, Obama was intending to use the...

Good for the Susan G. Komen Foundation, which leads the way in supporting breast cancer awareness and research. In a statement just released, the Komen Foundation refuses to cave in to the despicable attempt by Jane Hamsher and some of her followers to force the...

John Hawkins has an interesting post regarding a conversation he had with a Senate staffer on the chances of Obama-Pelosi-Reid-care passing this year (not likely) or in January (50/50): John: But still, it’s looking grim right? Senate Aide X: They are in much worse shape...

Sarah Palin’s appearance on the Conan O’Brien late night show generated huge positive buzz. Even (some of) the Palin haters were hard-pressed to come up with a negative about it. This marks something of a turning point for Palin. More so than daytime media, late...

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...

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...

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...

Dave Ross is a commentator for the CBS Radio Network. You probably never heard of him, and neither had I until today. His voice, though, sounded really familiar. Ross apparently has a morning show in the Pacific Northwest, but comes on the air nationally for...

From Mr. Privacy: I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect....
