Not so thrilled about ObamaCare? If you’ve attended one of the many town hall meetings to discuss this issue with your Representative, well, you’re un-American according to Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer. ‘Un-American’ attacks can’t derail health care debate’ By Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer: In the meantime, as members of Congress spend time at […]
The “public plan” is not about choice — it is about eliminating private insurance companies so that there is a single-payer system, the Imperial Federal government of the United States. It’s been designed that way from scratch.
Remember the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) bill to bail out the banks? Well, as it turns out, the Treasury Department has not exactly been forthcoming about the final bill. So says Neil Barofsky, the inspector general for the Troubled Asset Relief Program. Watchdog: Financial Bailout Support Could Reach $23.7 Trillion: The total […]
Well, it only took the first 16 pages of the House’s Health Care bill to kill private insurance. Read this article at Investor’s Business Daily, It’s Not An Option: Congress: It didn’t take long to run into an “uh-oh” moment when reading the House’s “health care for all Americans” bill. Right there on Page 16 […]
Don’t miss George Will’s column, “Have We Got a Deal For You”. The article touches on the fact that the sickly “Government Motors” will now have an unfair advantage over a healthy Ford. One other point to consider is that Ford’s very employees — members of the UAW — are now owner-partners with the government […]
Hugh Hewitt has an article, “Stopping Government Motors”, that is so thorough I really don’t have anything to add. You really should read the entire piece. Here’s an excerpt: Almost everyone grasps immediately the deep unfairness to Ford and even the offshore carmakers that now compete against the massive subsidies of the federal government. How […]
Rush Limbaugh read this letter on the air today, and it is just unbelievable. My name is George C. Joseph. I am the sole owner of Sunshine Dodge-Isuzu, a family owned and operated business in Melbourne, Florida. My family bought and paid for this automobile franchise 35 years ago in 1974. I am the second […]

Yesterday we wrote about the Orwellian GIVE/SERVE act, and the fact that Georgia’s two Senators, Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Isakson, were supporters. Late yesterday, the bill passed the Senate, and of course Georgia’s two RINO Senators crossed over with the Democrats and voted for it. The great State of Georgia deserves better than Tweedle Dee […]
Are you following the progress of the Orwellian “GIVE/SERVE Act’s” stampeding through Congress? This legislation is bad news, and the Republican sheep are a big part of the happy herd. We think “Republican” is a synonym for “stupid and gullible.” Michelle Malkin’s column today has some of the details: Volunteerism is a wonderful thing, which […]

Charles Murray gave a speech this week at the American Enterprise Institute. While the speech is about the cultural and psychological causes of happiness, he decimates the European model through a comparison of those causes and the actual effects of European democracies. There’s been an ongoing debate on the speech over at the National Review’s […]
Thomas Lifson has a great piece at American Thinker on how our modern politicians are following in the footsteps of dictators and kings of yore: they’re living a life of luxury and excess that, through their ruthless power, is reserved for them alone. From The New American Class Structure: In the old Soviet Union, the […]
(Hat tip: Lisa Schiffrin) Check out this great song by Kathleen Stewart, It Ain’t Your Money To Spend. (Click on the link to download the MP3). It’s witty and catchy with a great message. Plus, this woman can really sing! Lisa Schiffrin accurately calls it the “Anthem of the Counter-Revolution”. Nice job, Kathleen Stewart!
Here’s another nice quote for all of you who, like Barack Obama, think it’s a good idea to “spread the wealth around”. This quote comes from Dr. Adrian Rogers (1931-2005): You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work […]
Check out these two incidents involving Democrat politicians abusing their constituents. Physically. Violently, in the second example. Like Let Them Eat Pork Chuck-the-Schmuck Schumer, these incidents are object lessons in the arrogance — and contempt — which typifies Democrats. Thanks to Michelle Malkin for posting both videos and stories (linked below): First, here’s Charlie “Why […]
