“I didn’t vote for the bill. I just voted for the amendments.”
David Brooks no longer in love with Obama
Hey, if you guys had done your job during the campaign, Obama wouldn't be in office.
" Barack Obama campaigned offering a new era of sane government. And I believe he would do it if he had the chance. But he has been so sucked into the system that now he stands by while House Speaker Nancy Pelosi talks about passing health care via “deem and pass” — a tricky legislative device in which things get passed without members having the honor or the guts to stand up and vote for it.
Deem and pass? Are you kidding me? Is this what the Revolutionary War was fought for? Is this what the boys on Normandy beach were trying to defend? Is this where we thought we would end up when Obama was speaking so beautifully in Iowa or promising to put away childish things?"
Hey, if you guys had done your job during the campaign, Obama wouldn't be in office.
New password-stealing virus targets Facebook
Warning!
Never open attachments from people you don't know.
"Hackers have flooded the Internet with virus-tainted spam that targets Facebook's estimated 400 million users in an effort to steal banking passwords and gather other sensitive information.
The emails tell recipients that the passwords on their Facebook accounts have been reset, urging them to click on an attachment to obtain new login credentials, according to anti-virus software maker McAfee Inc.
If the attachment is opened, it downloads several types of malicious software, including a program that steals passwords, McAfee said on Wednesday."

EDITORIAL: Obama surrenders gulf oil to Moscow
Typical.
The Obama administration is poised to ban offshore oil drilling on the outer continental shelf until 2012 or beyond. Meanwhile, Russia is making a bold strategic leap to begin drilling for oil in the Gulf of Mexico. While the United States attempts to shift gears to alternative fuels to battle the purported evils of carbon emissions, Russia will erect oil derricks off the Cuban coast.
Steve Levy Plans Switch to G.O.P., Stirring Governor’s Race
Now his is hope and change.
ALBANY — A governor’s race that seemed all but settled is about to be upended again, by a popular Democrat from Long Island who is set to announce that he is switching parties.
Gordon Brown in 'humiliating climbdown' on defence spending
Interesting.
The Prime Minister conceded that statements he made to the House of Commons, to the Iraq Inquiry and to members of the Armed Forces had been incorrect.
The rare admission of fault by Mr Brown comes after an acrimonious public row between the Prime Minister and senior military figures over his record on defence.
Families face fine for using wrong bin in household waste crackdown
Silly you, thinking the economy and jobs were important.
Families could end up with five different bins and receptacles - including compulsory slop buckets for food waste - and be forced to sift through rubbish for anything that can be recycled, reused or converted into electricity.
Latvia government collapses amid economic crisis
The first domino falls?
The People's Party, the largest group in a five-party coalition, walked out amid disputes over how to cope with the country's severe problems.
Unemployment has now hit 20 per cent and the economy contracted by 18 per cent last year.
The Führer Cult: Germans Cringe at Hitler's Popularity in Pakistan
The swastika is a religious symbol of good luck.
It's not just Muslims who maintain this Nazi cult. A few years ago, a Hindu businessman in India opened a restaurant called "Hitler's Cross," complete with a portrait of the Führer at the entrance. Another Hindu sold bed linen emblazoned with swastikas that had little to do with the Hindu swastika symbol for good luck. The sheets, pillow cases and bed spreads were advertised as being part of "The Nazi Collection." English editions of Hitler's "Mein Kampf" can be found in bookshops even in the most remote parts of India. And Indian schoolbooks have been known to celebrate Hitler as a great leader.
Americans Firm in Prioritizing Economy Over Environment
Ah, but Democrat leaders no what's best for the peasants.
PRINCETON, NJ -- For only the second time in more than two decades and the second straight year, Americans are more likely to say economic growth should take precedence over environmental protection when the two objectives conflict (53%) than to say the reverse (38%).
Muslims seeking female clerk can ‘line up again’
Canada standing up to Islam? Good for them!
"From now on, for a woman who is veiled with a niqab or a burka and comes to our office asking to be photographed by a woman, the answer is no," said Marc Lortie, spokesman for the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec. "Line up again, or come back another day."
Gov't bank auditors got big bonuses
It took a freedom of information request to get this information.
"WASHINGTON – Banks weren't the only ones giving big bonuses in the boom years before the worst financial crisis in generations. The government also was handing out millions of dollars to bank regulators, rewarding "superior" work even as an avalanche of risky mortgages helped create the meltdown.
The payments, detailed in payroll data released to The Associated Press under the Freedom of Information Act, are the latest evidence of the government's false sense of security during the go-go days of the financial boom. Just as bank executives got bonuses despite taking on dangerous amounts of risk, regulators got taxpayer-funded bonuses despite missing or ignoring signs that the system was on the verge of a meltdown."
Cardoza and Costa to “Yes” Votes
A water bribe?
"As a vote approaches on Obama and Pelosi’s government takeover of healthcare, Code Red is now considering two supposedly “undecided” California Democrats, Dennis Cardoza and Jim Costa, to now be “yes” votes.
The U.S. Department of Interior announced yesterday that it is increasing water allocations for the Central Valley of California, a region that depends on these water allocations to support local agriculture and jobs. The region has recently been starved for water and as a result unemployment has soared. Not surprisingly, Cardoza and Costa had a hand in the announcement:"
'Shaming' her in-laws costs 19 year old her nose, ears
Graphic warning.
The religion of "peace" at work.
The religion of "peace" at work.
"The court ruled that her nose and ears must be cut off. An act carried out by her husband in the mountains of Oruzgan where they left her to die."
Mr. Smith Stops Obamacare?
Somebody has too.
"In May and June of 2007, everyone who was anyone in Washington figured the McCain/Bush/Kennedy amnesty bill was guaranteed to pass; Paul Weyrich wrote at the time, "In all of the years I have been here I never have known a time when the establishment really wants something that the establishment cannot obtain it. And the establishment really wants this bill." And yet two weeks later it utterly collapsed.
To quote another great performer, "Never give in. Never give in. Never, never, never, never."
Krauthammer's Take
from last night.
"When you add on to it the fact that it's all about a bill that largely has a huge majorities over time consistently against it, and after an election in Massachusetts in which it was the major issue and the opposition candidate ran on that as his number one issue, and he won on that — all of that together makes it extremely, extremely unusual and makes the process look as if . . . there is no other way that you could do something this unpopular and wrong without it."
Driehaus against Senate health plan
Lose one, win one?
"WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama’s sweeping health care legislation won precious support Wednesday from Rep. Dennis Kucinich, a longtime liberal holdout in the House, but it’s close to losing Rep. Steve Driehaus of West Price Hill."
Breaking with Israel - NYPOST.com
Who will trust America now?
Good question.
Good question.
"If the Obama administration continues to betray Israel, will any ally ever trust us again?
We've been viewed as a fickle (if mighty) partner at least since the 1970s, when we abruptly dumped allies from Saigon to Tehran. Now the White House not only delights in insulting our closest traditional ally, Britain, but has intensified its diplomatic pogrom against Israel -- our only respectable ally in the Middle East."
Deemin' Nancy Pelosi - WSJ.com
The "deem and pass" rule has set off complaints among Democrats.
Did our phone campaign work?
"Democrats are facing a mini-revolt over Nancy Pelosi's proposal to enact health care reform without an actual House vote. Use of the "deem and pass" rule, in which House members would avoid a direct vote by simply passing a rule on proposed changes to the Senate bill, touched off complaints from members who said it made it appear Democrats were trying to hide their vote."

Obama, Pelosi and Reid - how to defeat them.
As I watched the March on DC on Fox News yesterday and read my Twitter feed, I was struck by how fed up and frustrated the American people are. I was encouraged by how actively engaged people seemed to be. Some were posting phone numbers for the White House, a contact list of all Congressmen and some shrewd people even posted contact info for weak Democrats. But people are frustrated because they feel they are not being effective enough.
All are good strategies but we’ve got to do a lot more and we’ve got to fight smarter. The left are way ahead of us on this but we can catch up and even pass them. I’m going to show you how.
The golden rule of war, and this is war, is to know your enemy and his tactics. You already know who the enemy is but I’m going to let you in on their secret tactics.
I was amazed when I read this, suddenly I could see their tactics in use right before my eyes; in print, on television and on the radio. Their tactics were simple but effective and deadly. When you read this, you too will be able to spot their tactics and defend against them. Further, you will be empowered to mount your own campaign against them.
A friend of mine was concerned that by using these tactics we were lowering ourselves to their level and playing gutter politics. These are all effective strategies intended to stop bad people from doing bad things – not attacking innocent people. That’s the difference.
This book was written by a far left radical for far left radicals to attack innocent people. Again, we are going to use it to stop bad people. Read it and you will instantly recognize the tactics employed by the left today. Picking your target, freezing it, isolating it from support and ridicule, among others. Read this book!
Next, read What Can I Do? After The Tea Party. Fight smarter not harder!

Violent killer jailed for life | Scotland
This is one reason why Britain is so screwed up and Labour have to go.
"A violent schizophrenic who killed a young father four months after walking free from court over another brutal attack was jailed for life on Tuesday.
Former St Andrews University student Colin Welsh, 42, was told he must serve at least 12 years in prison as a judge described him as "clearly dangerous"."
Let's sum up here. He's "a violent schizophrenic" who carried an earlier "brutal attack" and is now jailed for "life" but will really spend only "12 years" in jail. Does that make sense to you?

Memorial Day 2010
It's not too soon to be thinking about Memeorial Day which falls on 31 May this year. These things can come upon us very quickly.
Here's a little reminder of what it's all about. Be sure and pass it on to your kids.
"Many people observe this holiday by visiting cemeteries and memorials. A national moment of remembrance takes place at 3 p.m. local time. Another tradition is to fly the flag of the United States at half-staff from dawn until noon local time. Volunteers often place American flags on each grave site at National Cemeteries.
Members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars take donations for poppies in the days leading up to Memorial Day; the poppy's significance to Memorial Day is the result of the John McCrae poem "In Flanders Fields."
In addition to remembrance, Memorial Day is also used as a time for picnics, barbecues, family gatherings, and sporting events. One of the longest-standing traditions is the running of the Indianapolis 500, which has been held in conjunction with Memorial Day since 1911."
If you need a good flag kit, here's one for you.
And there's lots more patriotic gear here. Show your patriotism and shame the liberals into being proud Americans again.

ACORN branches rename, rebrand after video scandal
Keep after them.
"CHICAGO (AP) - Affiliates of the once mighty liberal activist group ACORN are remaking themselves in a desperate bid to ditch the tarnished name of their parent organization and restore federal grants and other revenue streams that ran dry in the wake of a video scandal."
See, it's all about the money.

UK - Rationing body rejects ten drugs (allowed in Europe)
This is what Obamacare will look like.
"Up to 20,000 people have died needlessly early after being denied cancer drugs on the NHS, it was revealed yesterday.
The rationing body NICE has failed to keep a promise to make more life-extending drugs available.
Treatments used widely in the U.S. and Europe have been rejected on grounds of cost-effectiveness, yet patients and their loved ones have seen the NHS waste astronomical sums."
