Major Companies Considering Dropping Coverage over ObamaCare
25. October 2010
If you like your coverage, you can…well, actually, you’re out of luck. Because it turns out that it’s cheaper for companies to pay the $2,000 penalty for dropping coverage than it would be to continue covering the employees. Go figure. Oh, and guess who agrees that ObamaCare will lead to major employers dropping coverage? Tennessee [...]
Reminder: Get Out The Vote!

What we do over the next few days will determine the direction of the country over the next few years. We can sit at home and just watch other people get involved in the election, or we can get involved ourselves and actually change the course of history. It’s up to you. If you want [...]

CBS News: Real Unemployment Rate is 17%
25. October 2010
CBS News has a helpful reminder this morning: The real unemployment rate actually stands at 17%. The national unemployment rate of about nine and a half percent sounds incredibly high and of course it is. But it doesn’t nearly capture the depth of the trouble. It doesn’t count the people who’ve seen their hours cut [...]

Desperation: Charlie Crist Heckles Marco Rubio at Debate
24. October 2010
Anyone who has followed Charlie Crist’s career isn’t at all surprised that he would resort to heckling another candidate during a debate. To date he has said and/or done anything he sees as politically beneficial, regardless of whether it conflicts with his stated convictions. There is no depth to which he will not sink in [...]
With House in Danger, Weiner Changes Tone on Grayson
24. October 2010
Back in October of 2009, Alan Grayon’s outrageous comments were drawing fire from even his Democratic colleagues. (Grayson had referred to a top American economist as a “whore”.)

Desperate: Joe Manchin Suddenly Opposes ObamaCare
24. October 2010
West Virginia Governor Joe Manchin (D), who finds himself in a tight race for United States Senate, has suddenly decided that he opposes government-run health care passed earlier this year.

No, Republicans Won’t Impeach Obama
24. October 2010
I’m told some liberal activists have been telling voters that a Republican-led Congress would try to impeach Barack Obama. That’s absolutely absurd. For starters, impeaching a duly-elected president for anything less than an obvious felony would be politically suicidal. It plays into the opponent’s hands, allowing them to point to a shiny example of an [...]
