Slaves to Government?

This on RedState, is an excellent summary of what’s going on in Congress, the Administration, inside the Left., etc. It’s a good, short read.

I commented there, but in the event you don’t read it, my comment is pasted below:

Good, concise summary of what’s going on.

The Founders understood this proclivity toward tyranny among men; it’s why ours is a Constitution of negative liberties. The Left doesn’t like this and (obviously) is willing to destroy freedom and liberty in service to their totalitarian ideology. They know best - just ask them.

Being no more a fan of men and women in Black Robes as[…]

Fox v. Obama?

First, a disclaimer: I do not know if the below is real or fantasy….

Why Would Democrats Care About The Deficit?

This is a long but very good column on America’s debt, deficit and budget plans going forward. It is worth the several minutes required to read it.

But the question I raise, one I have raised before, is this: Why should Democrats care about the Debt, and why do Conservatives continue to think that they do?

What seems to be the primary difference, indeed a foundational difference, between those currently pushing debt, and those reacting to the increase of same, is children - e.g. whether one has them.

People, including the author of the linked column, refer to the mountain of debt being left[…]

The Parable of the Satellite Dish

POSTED AT 11:26 AM ON MARCH 25, 2010 BY DOCTOR ZERO

Imagine a large condominium complex is meeting to consider a package deal with a cable TV company. Over eighty percent of the condo owners have their own satellite dishes, and are quite happy with the service. Some of them don’t bother to watch television at all, preferring to rent movies from Blockbuster or Netflix for entertainment. However, the condominium Board of Directors says they’re getting a lot of complaints from the residents who don’t have satellite dishes, demanding the condo association purchase a cable[…]

Dems Vote on Viagra for Pedophiles: YES!

The Senate Reckoning

Senate Democrats get beat up by their own reconciliation rules.

• By KIMBERLEY A. STRASSEL

“And so when you walk into that ballot box, remember that it was my Democratic opponent who favored providing Viagra to pedophiles.”

That isn’t a campaign line any American has heard yet, but give it a few hours. The Senate this week took up its “reconciliation” bill, with its final changes to the law the president signed Tuesday. It wasn’t so much reconciliation as reckoning.

Democrats only got their ObamaCare victory by breaking every rule, and that was always[…]

Our International Embarrassment: Obama

So much for the guy who was going to “repair” our foreign relationship. What an infantile embarrassment we have put in our White House.

From Powerline:

Earlier this week, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu visited the White House. The details of the meeting have been slow to come out, but we are now learning what transpired. The Telegraph reports that Obama opened the meeting by presenting a list of 13 demands to Netanyahu. One was a complete freeze on Jewish building in eastern Jerusalem.

When Netanyahu did not immediately agree to the demands, Obama went to eat dinner. In one account he told Netanyahu to consider[…]

Has America EVER Had a More Disgusting President? No. - Exclusion from Easter Egg Roll for the Kiddies?

Via American Thinker:

Not that there was any doubt, but Penny Starr of CNSN News reveals once again the hypocrisy of President Barack Obama (D) of public versus private use.

The Obama administration announced on Tuesday it has reserved 3,000 free tickets to the annual White House Easter Egg Roll for students in D.C.-area public and charter schools, but not for children who attend private or parochial schools.

And what crime did private students commit which resulted in their exclusion from a public event at the White House?

“These tickets are from the White House to public schools, and we’re appreciative, but there may[…]

Congress health care vote: a dark day for freedom in America

This is from a Brit, Nile Gardiner, the Foreign Affairs reporter for the Telegraph (UK).

It is the best, most concise and illuminating comment I have read to-date on the abomination crammed up the collective arse of the American people, our Constitution and 230 years of tradition and progress.

*****************

The passage last night of Barack Obama’s health care reform bill through the House of Representatives is yet another blow to freedom in America inflicted by the Obama administration. The legislation, which comes at a staggering cost of $940 billion, will hugely add to the already towering national debt, now at over $12 trillion.[…]
