Yes, really. First, here’s a video, via Allah (h/t), of Murtha’s former failure to see progress despite the Brooking’s Institute saying they saw it first hand. And now? “I think the ’surge’ is working,” the Democrat said in a videoconference from his Johnstown office, describing the president’s decision to commit more than 20,000 additional combat [...]

Edwards Goes Into Detail on His Health Plan

29. November 2007

The very fact that Silky believes this to be a good idea frightens me. Like Clinton (and unlike Obama), Edwards’ health-care plan would require every American to have health insurance. But unlike Clinton, Edwards is now detailing how he would enforce his mandate. Under the Edwards plan, when Americans file their income taxes, they would [...]

This is not the best day for CNN. Power Line has info on two more questioners. Adam Florzak asked a question on Social Security. Jim comments: “Strange question, because he asked about paying back the social security trust fund? That’s a Republican question.” It turns out that Florzak quit his job with Caterpillar to work [...]

Hillary Plant: I’m Not A Hillary Plant

Because we all know that a man who’s been named in at least one press release, has endorsed Clinton and serves on at least one (believed to be two) steering committees is simply not a plant. Why, what kind of conflict of interest could that possibly pose? Incidentally, as noted by AllahPundit, by doing this [...]

As you keep getting told that the surge isn’t working and we’re not winning, keep this in mind. As noted by Frank Warner, November is usually one of the most deadly months for U.S. troops in Iraq. Frank writes: With two days of the month remaining, the number of Americans killed this November in defense [...]

Could there be more? Jason Coleman links Ted Faturos, concerned about farm subsidies, to Ted Faturos the former intern for Democratic Congresswoman Jane Harman. Their locations match. ****** Last night I wrote about the former General who asked a question about the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy, being on one of Hillary Clinton’s steering [...]

So says a reader of The Corner. That General who just asked about Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell is a member of Hillary Clinton’s Gay Steering Committee. Doesn’t CNN bother to even google these people? His name’s on the list. So, did CNN know? Or did he simply show up?

Obama: If Parents Don’t Accept Govt. Health Care, I’ll Fine Them

  Remember: You don’t have a choice. Barack knows what’s best for your kids, not you. The issue of mandates for health care has driven the debate between Clinton and Obama for the past few weeks. Obama says he would enforce his mandate for health care for all children by fining parents if they refused [...]

The reindeer will, too. Seattle’s Mayor Greg Nickels decided to use the annual “holiday tree” lighting ceremony to preach the gospel of Al Gore to kids, telling them that Santa Claus and his reindeer will die from the melting ice caps if we don’t start using energy-efficient light bulbs. He then proceeded to hand out [...]
