Are the Republicans due for a resurgence? Byron York makes a very credible argument that they are: “I think what’s going to happen is Obama’s going to be fine, and the Democrats in Congress are going to get their asses kicked in 2010,” says one Democratic strategist who prefers not to be named. “This is…

While we are all going to die, each death is an enormously personal thing. I’ve been through the process with a lot of people, and it is never, ever easy. My reaction to the talk about government-mandated death panels (which Joe Klein thinks are a great idea) is that I can’t believe things have reached…

Did that all fit? (I hope so, but I didn’t clear it with the national lobby.) My observation yesterday (that swastikas just don’t go with Brooks Brothers suits) was not terribly original, for it doesn’t take much imagination to see major inconsistencies in the way health care protesters are being stereotyped and characterized by those…

Here is a link to The County Sheriff America’s Last Hope. Here is a description: Sheriff Mack’s newest book covers decades of research to prove once and for all that the sheriffs in this country are indeed the ultimate law authority in their respective jurisdictions. The sheriff absolutely has the power and responsibility to defend…

Here’s something I’m not finding persuasive of anything: CAPTION: A vandalized sign outside the office of Rep. David Scott, D-Ga., is shown Tuesday, Aug. 11, 2009 in Smyrna, Ga. Scott had a contentious community meeting on health care last week. Scott, who is black, said the swastika is the latest example of what he believes…

Think we don’t have debtors prison in these enlightened times? Well, think again. Not only are deadbeat dads routinely imprisoned, but via Dr. Helen, I just learned about an incident in which the “dad” went to prison for a child that wasn’t his: Frank Hatley, 50, spent 13 months in jail for being a deadbeat…

It appears that a Democrat was holding up the Obama is Hitler poster at a John Dingell townhall. I think a look at the evidence is in order. First a picture then a video. I think an explanation is in order about Dingell’s Town Hall. Note the black man holding up the poster. This screenshot…

Quick question (which may touch on why I hate politics). Should I be hoping the economy is improving? According to most of the leading economists quoted in the Wall Street Journal, it is. But from a political standpoint, would economic improvement be a good thing? Just asking, because the left used to hope for disaster…

This article goes a long way toward explaining why I abandoned left-liberalism after college. One protester even brandished a sign that seemed to advocate Bush’s assassination. The man held a large photo of Bush that had been doctored to show a gun barrel pressed against his temple. “BUSH: WANTED, DEAD OR ALIVE,” read the placard,…

The scary Obama-Joker face seems a perfect fit for this truly awful AFP article shilling for the President. But Obama, hoping to offer healthcare to the 46 million Americans who currently have no insurance, attempted to cool the boiling rhetoric being blasted across cable news channels and conservative talks radio every day. “For all the…

Gerald Celente wrote a book. Trends 2000: How to Prepare for and Profit from the Changes of the 21st Century He has a web site Trends Research More Videos: The coming tax revolt: A series of clips in one video. Gerald says you have to produce your way out of problems: My vote for the…

I found and downloaded the entire text of HR 3200 here. At least, I downloaded one version of it; I understand that there are different versions with different amendments. Mine runs 1017 pages and I haven’t had time to read it. It’s not an easy read; especially because it’s loaded with language like this (from…

This is the same type of “health” board that is in the Obama plan. It will help reduce medical costs at least in theory. SPRINGFIELD, Ore. — Barbara Wagner has one wish – for more time. “I’m not ready, I’m not ready to die,” the Springfield woman said. “I’ve got things I’d still like to…

We’ve all heard the expression “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,” but in an economic sense, that is not necessarily the case. At least, not according to that trouble-maker of a Congressional Budget Chief who keeps popping utopian bubbles with doses of reality: In yet more disappointing news for Democrats pushing…

I’ve seen a lot of twisted logic in the health care debate, and it especially annoyed me to see opposition to government health care being attributed to racism. I well remember during the 1993 debate over Hillarycare (to which I was adamently opposed), there were a lot of the usual insults, imprecations, and the impugning…

Here is the New York Post article mentioned in the video. I had a few words about it at Palin On The Health Care Bill. It seems that the bill is getting a lot of support from union members. I wonder why that is? Why not let the union guys speak for themselves. Mel Hoffer,…

Over at Daily Kos, Ken Gladney (beaten by SEIU union thugs for distributing Gadsen flags while black) is being mocked for not having health insurance: But there’s an interesting twist to this story. It turns out that Kenneth Gladney is a man without health insurance. And he’s asking for help with his medical bills. More…

Now that you have listened to the CSPAN caller, it may be time to look at who are the real astroturfers. From a Craig’s List ad: Now is the time to work for change We need people like you–lots of people like you–to go out in communities around the country this summer and help make…

Reading between the lines of a story about a woman who claims to have been duped, it doesn’t take much imagination to realize that something sexual was going on here. MELBOURNE – A Florida woman was duped into changing diapers and providing care for a man she met through Craigslist who feigned disabilities. Turns out…

The AP has a story up about evangelicals and sex. Since the AP is charging $2.50 a word for any one quoting five words or more from their stories I will give you just a four word taste. When and Then and can and the I hope that helps. Cross Posted at Power and Control
