Let’s see, we had a housing market collapse because of risky liberal schemes that lent money to people who had no business taking on such loans but did line the pockets of a lot of DC insiders. The market collapse caused every home owner in America to lose massive amounts of equity (read – savings), [...]

DC’s old dog liberals now running Congress are coming for your health insurance America – make no mistake. Since the centrists and moderates in the Democrat Party foiled the liberal’s plans to take over the nation’s health care this summer under cover of a rushed bill, the far left has decided to end their stealth [...]

Let’s just say I find it way too convenient that a report comes out just now is discovering for the first time that the economic recession was twice as worse than anyone thought (hasn’t that been the White House excuse for a lame stimulus bill for months now?):
The first 12 months of the U.S. recession [...]

I am not a fan of the “Cash for Clunkers” government giveaway. We all should have been given the opportunity to save our tax money and apply it to buying a new car. The fact only people with older or larger cars got the hand out is another classic case of government playing favorites, which [...]

The damage is done to the Health Care proposal from the President and the liberal old guard in Congress, and to their credibility overall. The polls coming out this week are probably just the beginning of a slide that will continue through Thanksgiving. For example, there is the NPR poll:
President Obama has hit a rough [...]

I was listening to the Grandy & Andy Big Hour (630 AM in DC) this morning and was glad to hear the nation is having its long overdue discussion about health care and the cost of end of life treatment. It is a good debate and it is involving the largest voting block out there [...]

I finally decided to start reading the liberal House bill for myself to confirm some of the charges and claims slinging across the political aisles (especially since the news media is made of up complete morons who apparently don’t have the time to research anything, but simply echo the talking points handed to them). You [...]

Stay away from the fringes if you want to lead this nation. That appears to be the new political wisdom that has come out of years of ping-ponging between the ideological margins that the nation has experienced from the waning days of the GOP led Congress to the last few years of Liberal led Congress.
And [...]

I caught an interview with Michelle Bachman this morning on the DC’s AM 570 America’s Morning News and was truly impressed with her discussion of the Health Care tax being proposed by the liberal democrats. I was not aware that one proposal was to apply an 8% payroll tax on all employees, which Mrs. Bachman [...]

Jay Cost does a great job of illustrating just how out of touch the liberal leaders in Congress are. It is no surprise these extremists produced a botched stimulus bill which spend money like mad after the recession ends (most of the money doesn’t show up until 2010) and they produce a hair raising bill [...]

Probably one of the most important articles on Health Care costs verses access came out in the Washington Post today, showing why cheaper is deadlier in this key area of our economy:
In the 1960s, the chance of dying in the days immediately after a heart attack was 30 to 40 percent. In 1975, it was [...]

The democrats have learned the same lesson they had to learn in 1993-1994. If you attempt to take over the world’s premier health care system by claiming cheaper is better and bureaucrats are better than insurance companies, you lose the American people who know their health care is the best – which is why it [...]

Sorry folks, a combination of travel and family outing caused us to miss what looks like a denial of service attack on the Strata-Sphere until late this afternoon. Hopefully things are back to normal.

Before I get into the lemming-like actions of the congressional liberals on Obamacare, I must warn the ‘true conservatives’ from not snatching defeat from the jaws of victory on this. The reason the Obamacare push is failing is not because the far right did anything better or smarter, it is because the centrists (from the [...]

It is clear President Obama’s presser last night failed to address the nation’s fears about what a liberal designed, government run, one-size-fits-all take over of health care in America. In fact I would wager he made those fears worse because his attempt to paste over the reality was so transparent and simple minded he actually [...]
