Say it ain’t Snowe.

If one lone Republican supporting your socialist bill indicates “bipartisan” support, then Max Baucus and the Democrats got that yesterday as the first hurdle to a government takeover of our insurance industry was cleared.
Here’s Liberal in Republican clothing Olympia Snowe ruminating on whether a “public option” might be the thing to fix “what’s wrong” with [...]

First, cause no harm.

The Obama administration and the liberal controlled Congress are obstinately trying to impose their demonstrably inept socialist ideology on America. We’re resisting. This is good. If we hold out until November, we can sweep out the rats and permit US citizens to once again achieve a foothold in their own government. It won’t solve the [...]

Snapshot.

Has Obama rescued the economy? You very well may think that if you get your news from the NY Times or MSNBC or any one of a trillion other mouthpieces for the Democrat party, but reality (as it often does) has intervened to spoil the party.
Cast thine eyes on this from the indispensible Innocent Bystanders [...]

Wonderful.

Sometimes an apt analogy is the perfect medicine for thick-headedness.
Check this out:

Fallout boy.

With the economy still faltering and jobs still being lost, Mr. Obama’s credibility is sinking and his job approval rating is declining along with the popularity of his initiatives. Republicans, who had insisted the stimulus was wasteful and wouldn’t work, are being vindicated.
The political fallout that mattered most, however, has been among Democrats in the [...]

“Hurray! I’m for the other team!”

The NY Times doing its’ usual cheerleading:
WASHINGTON — Badly outnumbered and months behind in the debate on energy and climate change, House Republicans plan to introduce an energy bill on Wednesday as an alternative to the Democratic plan barreling toward a House vote this month.
How’s that for a lede? The Republicans have a plan, but [...]

Who do you love?

Can’t you hear Lonesome George Thorogood growling the good news?
Voters now [love] trust Republicans more than Democrats on six out of 10 key issues, including the top issue of the economy.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 45% now trust the GOP more to handle economic issues, while 39% trust Democrats more.
This is [...]

Act now!

We’ve all seen the infomercials. The hucksters claiming that their extra special product “won’t last” or that their “supplies are limited” They tell us that their offer is only available “for a limited time” and as an extra incentive to get us to open our wallets, tell us that the “first 100 callers” get [...]

Why is this so hard?

OK.
Imagine you own a business. Your object of course is to produce lots of quality stuff that people want to buy at prices that will permit you to make a profit. This profit will permit you to keep making these things, and keep selling them to people who want to buy them. If you were [...]

A National Crisis?

What do you make of the fact that 50% of all home foreclosures last year happened in only 35 United States counties clustered in about 7 States?
 
Does it make you wonder whether this is a National Crisis or not?
It sure makes me feel that way.
Eventually, the responsible people of this country are going to learn [...]

What’s a thing worth?

Whatever price the market will bear.
The rest is all fluff.
So why not let the housing market find it’s own solution? We’ve got lots of people apparently struggling to make payments on houses that are no longer worth as much as the outstanding loans. While this may be a sad case for the individuals involved, it’s [...]

We’re all children now.

It’s obvious what’s happening. The question is why. It’s clear that this glib, self-important aristocrat from the South side of Honolulu by way of private schools in Indonesia named Obama thinks that America works better for him as a Socialized welfare state despite all evidence suggesting it works better for ITSELF as a free market [...]

Serf’s up.

Catch some government spending and you’ll be sittin’ on top of the world…:)
In feudal times, the serfs all lived happy and cozy lives on the manor under the total protection of the Lord. It was a nice little arrangement. Got an issue with your neighbor taking too much land? The Lord will take care of [...]

Torturing the language.

Read this and see if you believe that any semblance of objective reporting remains in today’s media:
WASHINGTON: Republicans are preparing to pounce on any wasteful spending in the $787 billion stimulus package as they refocus their criticisms of a measure whose success could hurt their 2010 election prospects.
Another way to say the same thing?
“Democrats, who voted [...]

Reap what you sow, Democrats.

From the latest Rasmussen:
Are Republicans winning the public relations battle over spending in the $800-billion-plus economic stimuluspackage? Democrats and Republicans are nearly even in this week’s edition of the Generic Congressional Ballot.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone surveys found that the Democrats’ lead is down to just one percentage point. Forty percent (40%) of voters said [...]

Now this could be something.

Republican Senators using their brains.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – A group of Republican senators on Tuesday offered a $445 billion alternative plan to boosting the ailing economy, about half of which would be in the form of tax cuts.
The stimulus package would include cutting payroll and income taxes for a year, as well as lowering the 35 [...]
