Why You Should Oppose Obamacare: 32 Quotes From Democrats
  (Read all posts from )

The problems with health care reform are legion. It’ll raise premiums, unconstitutionally force people to buy health care, cause the deficit to skyrocket, slash Medicare spending to create a new entitlement, lead to rationing, cause a significant number of doctors to quit or retire early, and destroy the quality of care in America. The process has...

District By District On The Undecided Obamacare Votes: Why The Dems Are Still In Big Trouble
  (Read all posts from )

If you look at the best whip count out there, at The Hill, the Dems have 36 votes that are “Firm No, Leaning No, Likely No.” After losing lefties Dennis Kucinich and Luis Gutierrez from that list, the remaining 36 votes look pretty solid. That’s problematic for the Dems because they can only have a...

This Week In Quotes: 3/12 – 3/18
  (Read all posts from )

The liberal argument is easily grasped by children, because it rarely includes the ideas of costs or tradeoffs. That’s why children and teenagers tend to be liberal in their thinking. Do you want to feed the hungry? Clothe the naked? Heal the sick? Boy do I!!! These are very simplistic propositions, and furthermore come from...

If There’s An Obamacare Vote On Sunday, I Think The Dems Lose It
  (Read all posts from )

I’ve been watching the flow of the blow in the House really carefully and despite what people are saying, I don’t think they have the votes. Moreover, let me go out on a limb here: People are saying that there’s going to be a vote on Sunday. If it happens, I think Obamacare fails. Why? Well,...

An Interview With America’s Toughest Sheriff, Joe Arpaio
  (Read all posts from )

America’s toughest Sheriff, Joe Arpaio, made a name for himself by forcing inmates to wear pink underwear and work on chain gangs. Since Obama got into office, Arpaio has become a target of the White House and pro-illegal immigration members of Congress because his deputies actually enforce the immigration laws of the state of Arizona. I caught...

Democratic Health Care Fantasyland: Once People Know About The Bill, They’ll Like it!
  (Read all posts from )

How out of touch with reality would you have to be to actually believe this? Dems can salvage political goodwill from the messy and electorally painful health care bill, but only if they invest the time and resources necessary to convince voters it was a good idea to pass the mammoth package, according to a top...

Surprise, Surprise: The Border Fence Isn’t Being Built
  (Read all posts from )

One of the arguments people who are serious about securing our borders made against comprehensive immigration reform during the Bush years was that if we went that way, the illegals would get citizenship, but we’d never get the security. In fact, that’s exactly what happened when the country went that route during the Reagan years....

So, What’s The Liberal Answer To The Massive Shortage Of Doctors Obamacare Would Cause?
  (Read all posts from )

Barack Obama has never even attempted to make an honest case for health care reform. Instead, he’s simply promised everything to everybody. If you believe Obama, you think socialized medicine is going to cover more people, reduce costs, reduce the deficits, and improve the quality of care. In other words, there are no drawbacks whatsoever....

The DNC Should Fire Its Health Care Pollster
  (Read all posts from )

Obama’s pollster, Joel Benenson, has been making some utterly bizarre arguments for health care reform of late. If he really believes this stuff, he’s not competent enough to do his job. Of course, it’s entirely possible that he may be putting this nonsense out there because he believes Democratic Congressmen are stupid enough to buy...

The GOP Isn’t Going To Let The Dems’ Stupak Amendment Pass
  (Read all posts from )

What part of “We Will Kill Your ‘Fix’” do the Democrats not understand? Using reconciliation to try to pass socialized medicine is the nuclear option and it means all-out-political-warfare in the Senate.
