Glenn Beck - Current Events & Politics - Glenn Beck: Does Congress Matter?:
Just a few short months ago you felt alone. You felt your voice didn't matter. The frustration led you to act, to demand (many for the first time) that your voice be heard.
Look how far you've come. Politicians were ignoring you, now they fear you. And that's a healthy 'we will vote you out' fear, because we are awake and watching and will call those out who are not 'protecting and defending' the Constitution of the United States."

Healthcare Momentum Turning Against Obama:
The ups and downs of the published polls about Barack Obama's healthcare proposals dramatically illustrate the ferocity of the headwinds he faces as he desperately tries to sell his program to a suspicious and wary public."

Supposedly the Senate’s version of ObamaCare was written by Finance Chairman Max Baucus, but we’re beginning to wonder if the true authors were Abbott and Costello. The vaudeville logic of the plan is that Congress will tax health care to subsidize people to buy health care that new taxes and regulation make more expensive."

Barack Obama surrenders to Russia on Missile Defence - Telegraph Blogs:
I blogged a couple of weeks ago that the Obama administration was about to abandon its plans for Third Site missile defence installations in Poland and the Czech Republic. I wrote then that “if enacted, this would represent a huge turnaround in American strategic thinking on a global missile defence system, and a massive betrayal of two key US allies in eastern and central Europe. Such a move would significantly weaken America’s ability to combat the growing threat posed by Iran’s ballistic missile program, and would hand a major propaganda victory to the Russians.”"

New Health Proposal Is Industry's Favorite So Far
Read on and find out why your Insurers are so quiet...they're being handed the fatted calf by Obama....
New Health Proposal Is Industry's Favorite So Far:
WASHINGTON -- The latest health overhaul plan circulating on Capitol Hill gives health insurers, drug makers and large employers reasons to heave sighs of relief, sparing them the higher costs and more burdensome rules included in other Democratic-written alternatives.
Industry players that have already struck bargains with President Barack Obama's administration and leading Democrats to help pay for revamping the health system saw most of those deals left intact _ and in some cases sweetened _ in the $856 billion proposal unveiled Wednesday by Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., the Finance Committee chairman."

This is one of those cases in which the imagination is baffled by the facts.' - Adam Smith
Health care inflation is a topic that lends itself to considerable demagoguery and 'straw men arguments' from the left, where it is often attributed to capitalism and the free market. Their solution: more regulation and the creation of a massive new government entitlement program to provide every American with 'comprehensive' health insurance. Unfortunately, this solution will only exacerbate health care inflation as it completely ignores the major causes of the problem -- rising government health care expenditures and increased regulation."

No, Mr. President. It’s not about you. If legislation passes, you don’t own it.
We all own it. Any health care bill will become part of the U.S. Code, not simply an item on the Obama White House web site. We will all feel its effects. We are all responsible for the future of our country. Here the people rule."

Invocations of God and former president Ronald Reagan by an array of speakers drew loud cheers that echoed across the Mall. On a windy, overcast afternoon, hundreds of yellow 'Don't Tread on Me' flags flapped in the breeze."
