I want to thank my Cabinet members and senior administration officials who participated today. I hear that Dr. Joe Medicine Crow (ph) was around, and so I want to give a shout out to that Congressional Medal of Honor winner. It's good to see you."

Obama's Frightening Insensitivity Following Shooting | NBC Chicago
ONCE AGAIN-Hypocrisy Howl-Ler!!! Can you IMAGINE if this was GWB???? But t's the Chosen One......it's OK......
Obama's Frightening Insensitivity Following Shooting | NBC Chicago:
But instead of a somber chief executive offering reassuring words and expressions of sympathy and compassion, viewers saw a wildly disconnected and inappropriately light president making introductory remarks. At the event, a Tribal Nations Conference hosted by the Department of Interior's Bureau of Indian affairs, the president thanked various staffers and offered a 'shout-out' to 'Dr. Joe Medicine Crow -- that Congressional Medal of Honor winner.' Three minutes in, the president spoke about the shooting, in measured and appropriate terms. Who is advising him?"

House Committee on Ways & Means - Republican: Buy a $15000 Policy or Go to Jail...
Today, Ranking Member of the House Ways and Means Committee Dave Camp (R-MI) released a letter from the non-partisan Joint Committee on Taxation (JCT) confirming that the failure to comply with the individual mandate to buy health insurance contained in the Pelosi health care bill (H.R. 3962, as amended) could land people in jail. The JCT letter makes clear that Americans who do not maintain “acceptable health insurance coverage” and who choose not to pay the bill’s new individual mandate tax (generally 2.5% of income), are subject to numerous civil and criminal penalties, including criminal fines of up to $250,000 and imprisonment of up to five years."

American Thinker: UK renewables revolution threatens blackouts
American Thinker: UK renewables revolution threatens blackouts:
It is easy to understand the romantic attraction of the clean energy revolution and the rush to replace ‘dirty' fossil fuels. In the light of the war on carbon it's a no brainer, right? Which is precisely why, just as diminishing EU and UK subsidies are prompting an industry exodus westward, the British renewables industry may be about to be given an unexpected investment shot in the arm from some of the world's biggest multinational companies in one of the biggest analogies to the adage 'I gave at the church,' in this case the environmentalism church."

American Thinker: Obama-Pelosi to Health Insurers: Shut Up or We'll Shut You Down
American Thinker: Obama-Pelosi to Health Insurers: Shut Up or We'll Shut You Down:
President Obama, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and their Democratic followers in Congress have a rather draconian message for the private sector: Speak now, and we'll make you forever hold your peace.
Up until a few weeks ago, America's health insurers were sheepishly on board with the Obama-Pelosi health care reform plan. Perhaps the industry feared that voicing any concern about the plan would unleash the ire of an increasingly rabid Democratic majority on Capitol Hill. As it turns out, the health insurers were right."

President-elect Obama addressed the world from behind the president elect podium at least 6 times, generally indicating what he expected the outgoing administration to have done by the time he took office, like spending half of the TARP funds that he had helped secure the previous month."

Republican Leader John Boehner | Speaker Pelosi�€™s Government-Run Health Plan Will Require a Monthly Abortion Premium
Republican Leader John Boehner | Speaker Pelosi's Government-Run Health Plan Will Require a Monthly Abortion Premium:
Health care reform should not be used as an opportunity to use federal funds to pay for elective abortions. Health reform should be an opportunity to protect human life - not end it.
Unfortunately, Speaker Pelosi’s 2,032-page government takeover of health care does just that.� On line 17, p. 110, section 222 under “Abortions for which Public Funding is Allowed” the Health and Human Services Secretary is given the authority to determine when abortion is allowed under the government-run plan.� The Speaker’s plan also requires that at least one insurance plan offered in the Exchange covers abortions.
What is even more alarming is that a monthly abortion premium will be charged of all enrollees in the government-run plan.� It’s right there on line 16, page 96, section 213, under “Insurance Rating Rules.”� The premium will be paid into a U.S. Treasury account - and these federal funds will be used to pay for the abortion services."

The Council on American-Islamic Relations sent out its usual roundup Tuesday of news stories alleging the mistreatment of Muslims in America. There was a story critical of the FBI harassment of Muslims in Queens, N.Y., in the wake of the arrest of a suspected terrorist. Another story concerned calls for an investigation into an FBI shooting that left Detroit Imam Luqman Ameen Abdullah dead. There were also notices of CAIR banquets.
There was no story about Noor Faleh Almaleki. Her father, Faleh Hassan Almaleki, has been arrested for running down his 20-year-old daughter, as well as the mother of her live-in boyfriend, on Oct. 20 in an Arizona parking lot with his 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee.

Proposed law would require pay for sick workers | Health | Reuters

Proposed law would require pay for sick workers | Health | Reuters:
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. employers who tell workers to stay home when they are sick will have to give them paid time off for up to five days under new federal legislation proposed on Tuesday.
The emergency law would cover pandemic H1N1 flu or any other infectious disease, said California Representative George Miller, a Democrat who chairs the House Education and Labor Committee and who introduced the bill.
'Sick workers advised to stay home by their employers shouldn't have to choose between their livelihood, and their co-workers' or customers' health,' Miller said."

Ever since the left wing captured the universities and media, putative conservatives desiring media favor and intellectual respectability have been apologizing for conservatism's most popular and effective figures. These days, they want to distance themselves from the 'anger' and 'extremism' of such personalities as Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh.
What they ought to be doing instead is taking lessons from Beck as he lectures in front of a blackboard, a fitting symbol for what has gone wrong. Conservatism is rising, and we have the intellectual and historical high ground."

I'm amazed by the soothsayers: Ayn Rand, for instance, who warned us fifty years ago of the risk of dictatorship or civil war if collectivism persisted. Or economist Friedrich Hayek, who wrote in the 1940s that we'll become serfs if we move toward big government.
However, what feels most prophetic lately is an obscure movie from the l970s called Little Murders. The writer, Pulitzer-Prize-winning cartoonist Jules Feiffer, predicted that the '60s would unleash a feral, primitive society."

The American Spectator : Behold a Trojan Pony:
Last week the Congressional Budget Office 'scored' the House of Representatives' revised health insurance 'public option' and found it would charge premiums higher than those of private insurance and attract only six million buyers.
Thus, the growing worry that a public option would undercut private policies and soon drive them out of business seemed to evaporate. Speaker Pelosi, cheerleader for a 'public option,' gloated that the consolidated House bill came in under President Obama's declared ceiling cost of $900 billion and would not add to the deficit."

Barack Obama’s most devilish political move since the 2008 campaign was to appoint a Republican congressman from upstate New York as secretary of the Army. This week’s election to fill that vacant seat has set off nothing less than a riotous and bloody national G.O.P. civil war. No matter what the results in that race on Tuesday, the Republicans are the sure losers. This could be a gift that keeps on giving to the Democrats through 2010, and perhaps beyond."

Glenn Beck - Current Events & Politics - Glenn Beck: 'Land of the greed and home of the slave'
Glenn Beck - Current Events & Politics : 'Land of the greed and home of the slave':
GLENN: Well, when we were doing our homework, we came across a guy named McChesney. The free press. McChesney is a guy who says, and he has been at the White House, check the records, twice now for meetings. He is a guy who says that capitalism needs to be broken apart and taken apart, dismantled brick by brick. Well, the openly socialist, Marxist magazine Monthly Review just had a conference last month. Guess who spoke there. He was fine with communists and communism."

American Thinker: No Health Care in the Constitution
American Thinker: No Health Care in the Constitution:
Nancy Pelosi was recently asked by a reporter, ''Madam Speaker, where specifically does the Constitution grant Congress the authority to enact an individual health insurance mandate?'
She replied, 'Are you serious? Are you serious?'
Yes Madam Speaker, we are serious. At least, I am. In my opinion, our Constitution is the most profound political document ever written. Many Americans besides me would really like a 'serious' answer to that reporter's question."

American Thinker: Glenn Beck, FOX's 'Rodeo Clown'
American Thinker: Glenn Beck, FOX's 'Rodeo Clown':
It may look like fun and games to the people in the stands, but this is serious business, and not just any clown can do it. (Anonymous comment on rodeo clowns)
Much of what aggravates the Obama administration about FOX News is what Joe Biden would call a three-letter word: B-E-C-K.
Beck calls himself a 'rodeo clown.' That fits. A rodeo clown distracts the bull's attention to defend rodeo riders at risk. Beck believes the nation is at risk and he's out to distract the raging bulls, or the progressives in power."

Nancy Pelosi's New Health-Care Bill - WSJ.com:
Speaker Nancy Pelosi has reportedly told fellow Democrats that she's prepared to lose seats in 2010 if that's what it takes to pass ObamaCare, and little wonder. The health bill she unwrapped last Thursday, which President Obama hailed as a 'critical milestone,' may well be the worst piece of post-New Deal legislation ever introduced."

Glenn Beck gets it. He understands something I’ve been seeing and writing about as a columnist for the last seven years. He understands that the downfall of America will not come from the outside. It will come from the inside. It will happen because we failed to pass on to our children the values that made our nation great – and to remind them to pass those values on to their children."

The American Spectator : ACORN at the White House:
Andy Stern, president of Service Employees International Union (SEIU), visited the White House 20 times. As Stephen Spruiell notes at NRO, 'Stern has openly bragged about the SEIU's $61 million investment in Barack Obama. It certainly bought him a lot of access.'
SEIU has strong, longstanding ties to ACORN but has recently tried to distance itself from the group.
Two of ACORN's most important financial backers also visited the White House."

Health care plan hits rich with big tax increases - Yahoo! News:
WASHINGTON – The typical family would be spared higher taxes from the House Democratic plan to overhaul health care, and their low-income neighbors could come out ahead.
Their wealthy counterparts, however, face big tax increases that could eventually hit future generations of taxpayers who are less wealthy."
