Send the White House a Fax Opposing ObamaCare
Why a fax? Faxes are more tangible, more noticeable than emails or phone calls. Faxes need to be handled and seen. Psychologically speaking, a thousand faxes are more powerful than a thousand, say, emails. So we’re resorting to faxes. Chuck Devore is providing the quick and easy service at no cost. Just fill out your [...]
Reviewing the Excerpts of Obama’s Press Conference Remarks
22. July 2009
Jake Tapper has them. Some comments of note: That is why I’ve said that even as we rescue this economy from a full-blown crisis, we must rebuild it stronger than before. And health insurance reform is central to that effort. He’s back to rescuing the economy which is, er, still deep in the crapper. Apparently [...]
Blue Dogs to Pelosi: You Don’t Have the Votes
22. July 2009
Despite Nanny McBotox Nancy Pelosi asserting that she has the votes to pass ObamaCare in the House of Representatives, leaders of the Blue Dog Coalition are saying that the votes simply aren’t there. Mike Ross is one of those leaders: “No, I don’t think they have the votes,” Rep. Mike Ross, D-Ark., said, arguing if [...]
Durbin: No Vote on ObamaCare Before August Recess
22. July 2009
Which makes this assertion from Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer that they have the votes to pass ObamaCare that much more confusing. There’s no indication that Blue Dogs are any happier today than yesterday, the leader of the conservative Democratic coalition himself says there is “a long way to go”, opinion polls are growing gloomier [...]
Rhambo: We Rescued the Economy From Recession
22. July 2009
You have to hand it to Twinkle Toes: It takes basketball-sized nads to claim that 2.3 million jobs lost, a $787 billion stimulus package failing entirely, the prospect of spending $23 trillion in order to fix the economy, and major companies still going into bankruptcy, all qualify as an economy “rescued”. White House Chief of [...]
Obama to Blue Dogs Opposing ObamaCare : “You’re Going to Destroy My Presidency”
22. July 2009
Remember when The One made hay about Sen. Jim DeMint saying the defeat of ObamaCare would be the president’s Waterloo? We were subjected to righteous rhetoric about this socialization of healthcare not being about him. Guess what? It is: Grassley said he spoke with a Democratic House member last week who shared Obama’s bleak reaction [...]
Obama Gives Anti-War, Anti-Surge Congresswoman Post at Pentagon
22. July 2009
And why not? Not only was Barack Obama himself insisting we withdraw before the situation improved, leaving the Iraqis to certain death, but he claimed that the surge would make the situation worse. Of course, his political advisers would later insist that he never said such a thing, but any chimp with internet access can [...]
Colorado Governor Bill Ritter Refuses to Endorse Cap-and-Trade
21. July 2009
Apparently Colorado is having enough problems without the job-killing legislation being pushed by liberal Democrats in Washington. Oh, and did I mention that Ritter happens to be a Democrat? Yeah: Inhofe: …are you here supporting Waxman-Markey today? (Insignificant exchange) Ritter: Here’s what I support. I support a national energy policy that is married to a [...]
Good News: Pakistani Prez Bans Jokes Making Fun of Him
21. July 2009
Apparently he’s not ready to fight for truth, justice, and the American way. Go figure. Pakistanis who send jokes about Asif Zardari by text message, email or blog risk being arrested and given a 14-year prison sentence. The country’s interior minister, Rehman Malik, announced the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) had been asked to trace electronically [...]
Obama Decides to Hide Budget Numbers Until August
21. July 2009
Hmm. Do you think this might have something to do with the public’s growing discontent with the administration plan for healthcare? Americans are extremely wary of the massive deficit and the cost of the $1.5 trillion healthcare bill that will add significantly to that figure. Releasing updated deficit numbers likely won’t help sooth their minds. [...]
