 Old Nancy seems to be limping her way ever closer to her goal of 216. She swears she’s got the votes to get this done, and probably by tomorrow afternoon, barring some other delay, we’ll know whether it’s still safe to get sick in this country or not. But with them so close to their goal, we [...]  I’m going to add a little more from what Congressman Mike Pence had to say on Fox News Sunday, but I think it’s worth a separate post, as it goes off in a slightly different direction from our last entry on the health care vote. While Pence was telling the Dems to “stop digging,” he made [...]  Congressman Mike Pence, Chairman of the House Republican Conference gave the Dems some very sound advice today when he stopped by to chat with Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday. Chris, I think the message from last night is that Democrats didn’t get the message in August or last Tuesday. But last night, on a narrow partisan [...] 
Are you sitting down? Ready? He doesn’t care what you think about health care. Yup. That’s right. Just 41% of voters nationwide now favor the health care reform proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats. That’s down two points from a week ago and the lowest level of support yet measured. 41% of voters. That’s… not much. Especially for such [...] 
I’m starting to see a lot a blog posts floating around about the Republicans picking up big seats in the House and Senate and whatnot. I wanted to shoot out a quick post to say, yo’, it’s August 2009. There’s plenty of time between now and the fall of 2010 for bad things to [...]  Isn’t this everything you love about the Dems in one, nice, neat little box? Insanity, fiscal irresponsibility and bucket loads of other people’s money. A $200 back-to-school giveaway for needy kids sparked a mad rush for money on the streets of New York on Tuesday. Thousands of people lined up at banks and check-cashing shops to withdraw the [...]  Pretty bad. Here’s one from Frozen Tundra Land, where Representative Gwen Moore from Milwaukee has returned home to seek the counsel and wisdom from her district, or something like that. The first thing you’ll notice when you read the news stories from reporters coming back from these meetings is that they are just plain, outright shocked that [...]  Obama’s weekly radio address was used in large part to try to deflect some of the mounting concerns over why, exactly, all this money was spent and we’re seeing exactly zero results. Looking over his radio speech, he seems to want us to think things are cruising along exactly as planned. “As a result of the [...]  Unlike many others who take up space in my party, I didn’t lose a wink of sleep when Specter flopped like a dying fish to the other side of the aisle. I knew some people who were positively aghast that “conservatives” were losing yet another seat. And while crying, they continued to insist that the only way [...] 
The Dems are mulling over different ways to pay for the enormous Orwellian health care reform we are all supposedly so anxious for. There were also some proposals to add fees onto employers, taxes onto soda, and other equally foolish plans. None of these ideas will be able to generate nearly enough money, of course, [...] |
