Read it here. The video: Here’s the complete, extended, verbatim money quote, which I paraphrased in my last post: If this health care bill never existed, if I didn’t do anything about it, we’d actually be a trillion dollars worse off over the long term.

Obama’s Biggest Lobbyist Winners from Left-Wing Advocacy Organizations

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

On the campaign trail, now President Obama regularly excoriated lobbyists. He said he’d make the government “open and transparent” and said he’d make it hard for lobbyists to “curry favor” with his administration “based on how much they can spend on a fancy dinner.” Once elected, John Podesta, a member of his transition team, said […]

 

Obama’s Nonexistent Career as Law Professor

Posted on by Dave Blount

Some say that Barack Hussein Obama’s only qualifications are his skin color, a Muslim name that specifically recalls two prominent enemies of America, and hard-left political views that he usually knows enough to gloss over when the wrong people are listening — all of which endear him to the liberal elite ruling class that installed […]

 

ObamaCare Puts the Screws to the Young

Posted on by Dave Blount

One great thing about being young is, no matter how wrong you are, you have plenty of time to learn better. Under Hopey Change, American youth ought to be learning fast. Those not old enough to remember Jimmy Carter heavily favored our first adolescent president. Their reward — a 17% rise in healthcare premiums: Beginning […]

 

McHopeyChangey Policies Let 2,500 More Enjoy Funemployment!

Posted on by William Teach

Probably Bush’s fault because he didn’t reform student loans and put the federal government in charge or something like that Powerhouse student loan provider Sallie Mae says layoffs are imminent as a result of President Obama’s new student loan overhaul. “This legislation will force Sallie Mae to reduce our 8,600-person workforce by 2,500,” Conwey Casillas, […]

Just wait for the left wing hysteria over freedom of speech in 3…2….1….

Obama To Take Over Control of College Textbooks?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Candace de Russy over at National Review posted an alarming example of Obama power grab. Or perhaps more precisely it’s yet another alarming example of an Obama power grab. This time Obama apparently is setting the table to take control of what is printed in our nation’s college textbooks. This one slipped past my radar […]

 

Obama Looks To Ramp Up Partisan Attacks

Posted on by William Teach

Aww, poor President Neophyte. People are speaking out against his policies (which all seem to be outsourced to Congress) and, like a petulant 5 year old who doesn’t like others playing with his crayons, he is about to throw even more hissy fits. Waaaaaah-mbulance time! President Barack Obama, after a year of fitfully searching for […]

 

Smug NY Times Moonbat Smirks and Gloats

Posted on by Dave Blount

If you aren’t angry enough yet to do whatever you can to dislodge our socialist rulers from power before they totally destroy this country, check out the recent opinion piece in the New York Times by smug moonbat Charles M. Blow, who proclaims that the alleged “bullying, threats, and acts of violence” by patriots opposed […]

 

Union Hack Becker Gets Recess Appointment

Hopey Change Imposes Capital Controls

Posted on by Dave Blount

By piling outrage upon outrage at a maniacal pace, our socialist rulers have made it difficult even to keep track of their assaults on our liberty, much less resist them. Barely noticed by anyone, they have stretched out their insatiably greedy claws to exert control over private funds in overseas banks: On March 18, with […]

 

Obama May Diss Israel In U.N. Security Council Vote

Posted on by William Teach

Surprised? Probably not. Obama has never been a supporter of Israel, like so many other hard core lefties. He’s stocked his administration with people who are blase or against Israel/pro-Palestinian. People such as Samantha Powers. Last week, we witnessed Obama’s un-Presidential treatment of Netanyahu. Now we get The US is considering abstaining from a possible […]

 

A Little Reminder of the Left’s Unhinged Hatred

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

With all the tales in the Old Media of the supposed violence committed by Tea Partiers going on since Obama’s takeover of our nation’s healthcare system, I thought it might be instructive to recall how hate-filled the unhinged left is in America today. A year ago, the good folks at Zomblog assembled a great series […]

 

Obama Press Sec. Gibbs’ Challenging Reading Material: a Star Wars Pop-Up Book

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Descending from Air Force One, Obama Press Secretary Robert Gibbs clutches his latest choice of reading material, the “Star Wars Pop-Up Guide.” The captions write themselves, don’t you think? We know the book was a gift from the president for Gibbs’ son, Ethan, of course. But the photo is just too delicious and the thoughts […]

 

During Earth Hour, Lights Stay On At White House And Goracle Event

Posted on by William Teach

As the useless man made global warming gesture of Earth Hour passed through the Eastern time zone, I wonder what happened? Other sites expected to participate in the U.S. were businesses on the glittering Las Vegas strip and the Mount Rushmore presidential monument in South Dakota. The lights stayed on at the White House, U.S. […]

 

Government Is Not Our Friend

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Small-government conservatives have always been suspicious of government. Whether city, county, state or federal all government is looked on as a troublesome but necessary evil that must be tightly controlled and oft times opposed. This anti-government attitude, of course, is a complete mystery to socialist Democrats. They just don’t understand why conservatives mistrust government and […]

Netanyahu Meets Obama’s Big Bus

Posted on by William Teach

Does Obama wake up and say “which ally can I tick off today?” He has managed to annoy the Brits and their leaders, including the Queen, multiple times, Sarkozy, Merkel, the Israeli’s multiple times, the Pakistani’s, Iraqi leaders, Hamid Karzai several times. Now it is Binyamin Netanyahu’s chance to meet Obama’s bus, which is a […]

The despair in the field of medicine over Obama’s government takeover of America’s once vibrant healthcare system can be overwhelming for America’s doctors.

ICE Assists German Government in Persecuting Homeschoolers

Posted on by Dave Blount

One of Hitler’s progressive policies survives to this day in Germany: a ban on homeschooling. Uwe and Hannalore Romeike of Bissingen had three of their four children temporarily confiscated by the State because they insisted on teaching them at home, undermining Big Government’s ability to twist their minds into the shape of its choosing. In […]

 

ACORN’s Tangled Branches

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

News is all over the country that the often criminal group the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN) is dead, folding its tent, kaput. All this is because, as Politico puts it, of a “conservative assault that never prompted any prosecutions.” But let us not get our hopes up that ACORN is defeated. […]

 

Democrat Health Care Bill is Sexist and Anti-Mom

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

When Nancy Pelosi uttered the ridiculous comment the other day that “being a woman will no longer be considered a pre-existing medical condition”, I chalked it up to simply being the further rantings of an out of touch Stepford Feminist, always walking in lockstep with some perceived victim mentality. I thought to myself “No, Speaker, […]

Rep Dingell Admits Obamacare Is All About Control

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Representative John Dingell (D-MI) inadvertently divulged the end goal of the Democrats yesterday during a radio interview::  They need to control we rubes. They will stop at nothing to further that agenda and achieve that goal. We knew this already, but the left is now making no attempt to even mask it. This also is […]

 

Liberals Value Good Intentions Above Both Truth and Outcomes

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Amusingly enough the Washington Post has a blog called PostPartisan. I say amusing because it is obvious that there is nothing “post” partisan about it if a rant against tea partiers by Jonathan Capehart is any indication. He thinks that Obama was speaking to the tea partiers in his latest healthcare address and so posted […]

 

Obama Supporter’s Racism Cop Out

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

If you want to see the ignorance of the left, below is a good video to see it in. In it a woman that supports Obamacare makes all sorts of accusations that everyone is a racist in a confrontation at a small protest outside of Illinois Representative Jan Schakowsky’s Chicago-area offices. Another portly woman whines […]
