Are Women New Victims of Obamacare’s-H.R. 3962 Death Panels? Expanding Public Healthcare Options by Drastically Changing Mammogram Guidelines:

Are Women New Victims of Obamacare’s-H.R. 3962 Death Panels? Expanding Public Healthcare Options by Drastically Changing Mammogram Guidelines: By Marc Chamot I have never seen our U.S. congress and Washington politicians, acting like Barney Fife and Bemis and Butthead combined. They keep shooting themselves in the foot, time after time with their healthcare agendas. Even before the Democrat’s new horrid healthcare plans are passed, they arrogantly unleashed their government paid hacks, the... Read Full Story

The Healthcare Reform Travesty

By Alan Caruba Other than the complete destruction of the U.S. economy, one sixth of which is generated by the healthcare profession, I cannot see any reason for the bill that Harry Reid is pushing for a Saturday evening vote in the Senate. It has taken less than a year for the Democrats, led by Barack Obama, to saddle Americans with such enormous debt that your grandchildren will be paying it off. The so-called “bail-outs” have proven to be a bonanza for Wall Street firms on good terms with... Read Full Story

Wingnut Raising $$$ For OBAMA Group???

W hy, you could have knocked me over with a feather when I checked out the Real Clear Politics Blog today and saw that Tom Bevan — conservative Tom Bevan — wingnut Tom Bevan who NEVER had a nice thing to say about Obama or his administration — is raising money for “Organizing for America!” It’s TRUE! Oh, he starts the column snarkily enough… The title is “Obama group raising money off of Palin; says she’s dangerous.” The lede reads: I was a bit surprised to see the following... Read Full Story

Palin on O’Reilly: Reaganesque

Bill O’Reilly: Bill’s Column – Hammering Sarah . With the possible exceptions of Richard Nixon and George W. Bush, no politician of the modern era has been more derided by the media than Sarah Palin. And the attacks did not stop with her; they included nasty rumors about her family and even the mocking of her children. – Bill O’Reilly Read Full Story

Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin Are…

What a delightful way to start the day.  Try typing Rush Limbaugh is, into the search area on google.  The above suggestions absolutely made my day.  There is hope for us all yet.  It would seem despite being  a pompous windbag,  that he has not been able to fool google users.  When the internet decides that the nicest thing it can say about him, is that he is wrong, hopefully that is a sign that his insipid commentary will one day come to an end. If nothing else, a young person googling... Read Full Story

Assigning Blame by Arnie Sherr

Assigning Blame By Arnie Sherr   Human nature is a dramatically amazing condition. Its defenses are keen and its illusionary tactics are amazing. The act of transferring culpability is a defense mechanism. It is an altruistic attempt to save face and self-respect. It is the antithesis of owning-up.   I know a man in his mid forties whose life has been spattered by eight or nine non-violet felony convictions. He says he wants to correct his propensity for taking the low road... Read Full Story

Al Gore’s Current TV Bashes Limbaugh, Beck, and ‘Gun-Ho’ Palin

Days after announcing another huge layoff, Al Gore's Current TV attacked Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and "Gun-Ho" Sarah Palin. The bashfest came in the form of a cartoon ironically titled " The Stupid Virus ": When a lab-monkey declares that President Obama wasn't born in America, he becomes Patient Zero for a new brand of fear-based news virus - Fearus Ignoramus. We watch as the virus goes ear-borne, spreading from Rush Limbaugh to CNN to the mainstream-media to the general public. America... Read Full Story
