In epic upset, GOP's Brown wins Mass. Senate race; Dems blame Coakley for loss, not their policies
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Tue 19 Jan 2010 10:20 PM EST
In an epic upset in liberal Massachusetts, Republican Scott Brown rode a wave of voter anger to win the U.S. Senate seat held by the late Edward M. Kennedy for nearly half a century, leaving President Barack Obama's health care overhaul in doubt and marring the end of his first year in office. More>>> Sunday, January 17
Dems threaten "nuclear option" on health care debacle
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Sun 17 Jan 2010 07:05 AM EST
Bloomberg reports that Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, stated that despite the special election in Massachusetts, the Dems have been preparing to use a process called "reconciliation" to pass their wildly unpopular "health care reform" bill, literally changing the rule requiring a 60 vote requirement to pass the legislation to only requiring a simple 51 vote majority.

IRS Commissioner: Tax code too complex, doesn't file his own taxes
by

on Wed 13 Jan 2010 11:25 AM EST
IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman does not file his own taxes in part because he believes the tax code is complex. During an interview on C-SPAN's "Newsmakers" program that aired on Sunday, Shulman said he uses a tax preparer for his own returns. More>>>
Liberal watchdog groups give Obama administration an "A" for openness on healthcare reform
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Wed 13 Jan 2010 08:32 AM EST
They must be watching a different administration than the rest of us are watching. Far from negotiating in open and inviting "everyone to the table", most of it has been negotiated, and continues to be hammered out, behind closed doors with a very limited number of voices permitted to speak. The GOP isn't invited to participate, let alone the American people. Where are the televised C-SPAN proceedings? This is what Obama meant by "openness"? Saturday, December 26
The Senate Postmortem
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Sat 26 Dec 2009 11:25 AM EST
In the post-dawn hours on Thursday the Senate passed ObamaCare 60 to 39, in the first vote on Christmas Eve since 1895 and after the longest consecutive session in Congress since World War I. We are thus heading toward the first U.S. entitlement program dragged across the finish line on a straight partisan majority, a bill that even its most fervent supporters admit is "flawed" but better than nothing. It is far worse than nothing. More>>> Friday, December 25
Steyn: Why climate change is hot hot hot
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Fri 25 Dec 2009 10:12 AM EST
According to the CIA’s analysis, “detrimental global climatic change” threatens “the stability of most nations.” And, alas, for a global phenomenon, Canada will be hardest hit. The entire Dominion from the Arctic to the 49th parallel will be under 150 feet of ice. Oh, wait. That was the last “scientific consensus” on “climate change,” early seventies version, as reflected in a CIA report from August 1974 More>>> Tuesday, December 22
Change Nobody Believes In: A bill so reckless that it has to be rammed through on a partisan vote on Christmas eve
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Tue 22 Dec 2009 07:18 AM EST
And tidings of comfort and joy from Harry Reid too. The Senate Majority Leader has decided that the last few days before Christmas are the opportune moment for a narrow majority of Democrats to stuff ObamaCare through the Senate to meet an arbitrary White House deadline. Barring some extraordinary reversal, it now seems as if they have the 60 votes they need to jump off this cliff, with one-seventh of the economy in tow. More>>> Monday, December 21
Health Care Nullification: Things have just gotten underway
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Mon 21 Dec 2009 04:59 PM EST
“The several States composing the United States of America, are not united on the principle of unlimited submission to their General Government.” –Thomas Jefferson For the past few days, I’ve received loads of emails urging me to get active regarding the healthcare vote – most of which had a subject line similar to: “Last Chance to Stop National Healthcare!” Well, if you believe the only way to protect your rights is by begging federal politicians to do what you want, then these emails are certainly right. The vote went as expected, and so will the next More>>>
Senate Health Care Bill 'Ugly, Partisan and Dangerous'
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Mon 21 Dec 2009 08:51 AM EST
"Senators Ben Nelson (D-Neb.) and Robert Casey (D-Pa.) gave mere lip service to protect the most innocent among us by placing their stamp of approval on government funding for abortion coverage" in the Democrats' health care bill, a pro-life group said after Senate Democrats advanced their bill in 1 a.m. vote on Monday. Family Research Council President Tony Perkins said the Senate's middle-of-the night, 60-40 vote to cut off debate -- thus allowing eventual passage of the bill -- reflects the "ugly, partisan and dangerous process" that has characterized the proceedings all along: "This legislation was drafted by a handful of people, supported by only one political party and will negatively affect every single American citizen."

America Under Barack Obama An Interview with Nat Hentoff

Nat Hentoff has had a life well spent, one chock full of controversy fueled by his passion for the protection of civil liberties and human rights. Hentoff is known as a civil libertarian, free speech activist, anti-death penalty advocate, pro-lifer and not uncommon critic of the ideological left...I try to avoid hyperbole, but I think Obama is possibly the most dangerous and destructive president we have ever had.

The Fight Over Fascist ObamaCare Is Only Just Beginning
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Mon 21 Dec 2009 07:17 AM EST
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), who may be unaware that he is currently enjoying his final term in the U.S. Senate, claims to have the 60 votes he needs to muscle ObamaCare through his chamber. God help us if he does. The current iteration of ObamaCare is classic Mussolini-style Fascism (i.e. corporatism). It forces Americans at gunpoint to purchase health insurance, a requirement never before imposed on the American people. More>>> Saturday, December 19
I'll Have A Blue Dog Christmas Without You
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Sat 19 Dec 2009 11:34 PM EST
I've been saying for a year now, in NR and NRO, that the object for savvy Dems is to get this thing passed in whatever form because, once you do, there's no going back. Kim Strassel in yesterday's Journal gets it: So why the stubborn insistence on passing health reform? Think big. The liberal wing of the party—the Barney Franks, the David Obeys—are focused beyond November 2010, to the long-term political prize. They want a health-care program that inevitably leads to a value-added tax and a permanent welfare state. Big government then becomes fact, and another Ronald Reagan becomes impossible. See Continental Europe. More>>> Thursday, November 26

Rasmussen: Support for Health Care Plan Falls to New Low
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Tue 24 Nov 2009 03:43 AM EST
Just 38% of voters now favor the health care plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats. That’s the lowest level of support measured for the plan in nearly two dozen tracking polls conducted since June. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 56% now oppose the plan. More>>> Sunday, November 8

When I recently asked Congressman James Clyburn, the third ranking Democrat in the House, to tell me "Where in the Constitution the federal government is authorized to regulate everyone's healthcare--, he replied that most of what Congress does is not authorized by the Constitution, but they do it anyway.

Comply With Pelosi-Care Or Go To Jail...UPDATE: House passes bill late on Saturday night 220-215
by
Riley Jones
on Sun 08 Nov 2009 01:09 PM EST
Today, Ranking Member of the House Ways and Means Committee Dave Camp (R-MI) released a letter from the non-partisan Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) confirming that the failure to comply with the individual mandate to buy health insurance contained in the Pelosi health care bill (H.R. 3962, as amended) could land people in jail. The JCT letter makes clear that Americans who do not maintain “acceptable health insurance coverage” and who choose not to pay the bill’s new individual mandate tax (generally 2.5% of income), are subject to numerous civil and criminal penalties, including criminal fines of up to $250,000 and imprisonment of up to five years.

Election 2009: Change I Can Believe In!
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Wed 04 Nov 2009 10:42 PM EST
The biggest loser was President Obama, who campaigned tirelessly for Corzine, even giving up golf on several occasions and skipping a quarter-million-dollar "date night" with Michelle to stump for the Democrat. Just two days before the election, Obama was at a rally in New Jersey assuring voters that Corzine was "one of the best partners I have in the White House. We work together. ... Jon Corzine helped get this done." Except the problem is that voting for Obama a year ago was a fashion statement, much like it was once a fad to buy Beanie Babies, pet rocks and Cabbage Patch Kids. But instead of ending up with a ridiculous dust-collector at the bottom of your closet, the Obama fad leaves you with higher taxes, a reduced retirement fund, no job and a one-year wait for an MRI.

The Long, Dark Tea-Time of the GOP’s Soul
by

on Mon 02 Nov 2009 09:17 AM EST
The withdrawal of Dede Scozzafava from the special election for Congress in upstate New York has predictably set off another wave of media-led hand-wringing about the health of the GOP. These stories are like crack for reporters, especially those with a hard-left slant. It is always framed as a battle between ‘conservatives’ and ‘moderates,’ but the focus is actually much narrower.

Death Panel Measure Survives in House Health Bill
by
Riley Jones
on Fri 30 Oct 2009 09:02 AM EDT
Obama Denounces Dishonest "Death Panel" Rumors at Town Hall August 15th, 2009 "In terms of misinformation, because there's no perfect solution... you can have an honest disagreement... What you can't do - or, you can, but you shouldn't do - is start saying things like, we want to set up death panels to pull the plug on Grandma. I mean, come on... When you make a comment like that... that's simply dishonest... The notion that somehow I ran for public office, or members of Congress are in this so they can go around pulling the plug on Grandma?" FTA- The Medicare End-of-Life Planning Provision that 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin said was tantamount to "death panels" for seniors is staying in the latest Democratic health care bill unveiled Thursday. The provision allows Medicare to pay for voluntary counseling to help beneficiaries deal with the complex and painful decisions families face when a loved one is approaching death. Obama lies, Grandma will die. Nice of him to call people 'dishonest' when he was lying through his teeth the whole time. His conduct is miles below the office of the Presidency and his politics are some of the most divisive in American history. He is creating dangerous fissures in our society and turning people against each other with his half truths and fabrications. More>>> Thursday, October 29

ALERT: Private insurance premiums could TRIPLE under ObamaCare
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Thu 29 Oct 2009 03:38 AM EDT
In all of the 14 states WellPoint scrutinized, ObamaCare would drive up premiums for the small businesses and individuals who are most of WellPoint's customers. (Other big insurers, like Aetna, focus on the market among large businesses.) Young and healthy consumers will see the largest increases—their premiums would more than triple in some states—though average middle-class buyers will pay more too. Not even two hours after Wellpoint had presented its materials on the Hill, Democrats were already trashing it—which, considering that it runs to some 238 pages and took weeks to prepare, must have required remarkable powers of digestion and analysis.

I'll Pass on 'Opting Out'
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Thu 29 Oct 2009 01:28 AM EDT
The Democrats' all-new "opt out" idea for health care reform is the latest fig leaf for a total government takeover of the health care system. Democrats tell us they've been trying to nationalize health care for 65 years, but the first anyone heard of the "opt out" provision was about a week ago. They keep changing the language so people can't figure out what's going on. The most important fact about the "opt out" scheme allegedly allowing states to decline government health insurance is that a state can't "opt out" of paying for it. All 50 states will pay for it. A state legislature can only opt out of allowing its own citizens to receive the benefits of a federal program they're paying for. More>>> Wednesday, October 28
Obama signs 'hate-crimes' bill into law: 'It's a very sad day for America and for religious liberties'
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Wed 28 Oct 2009 06:37 PM EDT
A "hate crimes" bill opponents claim will be used to crack down on Christian speech, even the reading of the Bible, was signed into law today by President Obama. The Senate approved the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd, Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act by a vote of 68-29 on Oct. 22 after Democrats strategically attached it to a "must-pass" $680 billion defense appropriations plan. The Alliance Defense Fund blasted the "hate-crimes" bill, calling it "another nail in the coffin of the First Amendment." "All violent crimes are hate crimes, and all crime victims deserve equal justice," ADF Senior Legal Counsel Erik Stanley said in a statement. "This law is a grave threat to the First Amendment because it provides special penalties based on what people think, feel, or believe. ADF will be on the front line to defend those whose free speech or free exercise of religion rights are violated by this unconstitutional law and to ultimately overturn this attack on freedom."

News broke recently that Nicolas Cage is suing his business manager, Samuel J. Levin, for incompetence that caused him huge tax liabilities and "catastrophic financial losses." Contributing to Cage's financial woes, the IRS has filed more than $6.3 million in liens against Cage for back taxes owed from 2002, 2004, and 2007. He is reportedly selling some properties to pay off the debt and going after Levin in retaliation. More>>> |
