As reader Frogg1 notes, the Senate Democrats scrambled to fix the loop holes in their bill to ensure illegal aliens could not get government subsidized (or rationed) health care. The liberal media shills can post and write whatever they want about Smokin’ Joe – but the fact he forced the Senate to make their bill […]

As we wake up this morning after President Obama’s last ditch effort to salvage his health care overhaul initiative, we have three entities arising as figureheads of the debate. The first is, of course, President Obama and his liberal DC congressional leaders. The second is the GOP and their very concise and respectable response (one […]

Alternate Title: Does The Lying Work? I feel at times the Democrats live in a Disney movie, where everything in the kingdom is perfect, or will be if we just let the wizard do his/her thing. After last night’s speech of fantasy fiction, I wonder how much of America does as well. We shall see […]

Obama is already on the path towards an abysmal failure. He has decided to run around claiming the end of the world is nigh if DC doesn’t get its way! The key line of his speech that has been pre-released to the media is unadulterated drama queen exaggeration: President Barack Obama Wednesday demanded Congress act now […]

If Camille Paglia is a typical, left-of-center Obama voter then the Democrats are in for a world of hurt over the next to election cycles: As an Obama supporter and contributor, I am outraged at the slowness with which the standing army of Democratic consultants and commentators publicly expressed discontent with the administration’s strategic missteps […]

The UK’s National Health Service (NHS) has been held up as the model for the liberal government rationed health care solutions now in front of Congress as Obamacare. I have written extensively on the NHS and its hellish, substandard performance (see here). In government rationed health care systems costs are contained by selecting who is […]

Jerry Doyle made an excellent point on his radio show this afternoon. If the liberals want “competition” through government rationed health care (a.k.a., the ‘public option’) let’s have competition all around. Let’s allow private sector retirement investment options to Social Security, where those who want to put their trust in the free market verses the […]

One wonders how someone can over-engineer a solution to the point it is worse than the problem, but DC and Congress are extremely gifted in the craft. In this country we have the world’s best health care. Accessible to all either through insurance or on a walk-in basis or as a poverty program (Medicare/Medicaid). No […]
