The Cagle Post -- Column -- Michelle Malkin -- The Obamacare Horror Story You Won't Hear
The Cagle Post -- Column -- Michelle Malkin -- The Obamacare Horror Story You Won't Hear "In truth, it was old-fashioned cost-cutting and favor-trading repackaged as minority aid. Clearing out the poor freed up room for insured (i.e., more lucrative) patients. If a Republican had proposed the very same program and recruited black civic leaders to front it, Michelle Obama and her grievance-mongering friends would be screaming "RAAAAAAAAACISM!" at the top of their lungs."

Global Insurance Fraud By North Korea Outlined - washingtonpost.com: "'The exact scale of the fraud is hard to determine . . . because the insurance industry has been so gullible,' Asher said.

North Korea 'plan missile launch towards Hawaii on Independence Day' | Mail Online:
North Korea may launch a long-range ballistic missile towards Hawaii on American Independence Day, according to Japanese intelligence officials.
The missile, believed to be a Taepodong-2 with a range of up to 4,000 miles, would be launched in early July from the Dongchang-ni site on the north-western coast of the secretive country.
Intelligence analysts do not believe the device would be capable of hitting Hawaii's main islands, which are 4,500 miles from North Korea.

Why the Kennedy Health Bill Would Wreck Bipartisan Reform
Why the Kennedy Health Bill Would Wreck Bipartisan Reform:
Based on the President's description of his health care agenda during the 2008 presidential campaign, Americans believe they were promised three things:
1. If they are satisfied with their current coverage, nothing will change;
2. If they are not satisfied, or have no coverage, they will be offered a plan at least as good as Members of Congress have; and
3. The cost of their family health coverage will fall by an estimated $2,500."

Ask Heritage (Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh) - The Heritage Foundation
The Heritage Foundation:
Health care is the hot topic in Washington, and many plans are being proposed to fix America’s health care problems. The Affordable Health Choices Act by Senator Edward M. Kennedy (D-MA) will grant enormous power to Washington, putting bureaucrats in charge of health care decisions, and resulting in fewer, more expensive options."

GLENN: You know, it's been really, really tough to find flaws in the stimulus package, I mean really, really tough. You know, the shovel ready projects that are designed to save America. I can't believe they aren't working. Have you seen the projects? Don't worry, don't worry. We're supervising, not ABC, CBS, NBC. No, no, no. The Glenn Beck radio program is the only one really looking at the stimulus projects to see what exactly, how are they spending this money that is going to turbo us into the future?"

Newsmax.com - Obama Plan Imposes Sweeping New Controls Over Banking Industry
But....wait....didn't he say he didn't want to run the financial sector.....
"Obama cast his proposals as an attempt to find a middle ground between the benefits and excesses of capitalism. "
I think the very term "excesses of capitalism" is scary in and of itself.
Capitalism, innovation and risk taking are what sets us apart from the rest of the world...
Newsmax.com - Obama Plan Imposes Sweeping New Controls Over Banking Industry:
WASHINGTON -- From simple home loans to Wall Street's most exotic schemes, the government would impose sweeping new 'rules of the road' for the nation's battered financial system under an overhaul proposed Wednesday by President Barack Obama.
Aimed at preventing a repeat of the worst economic crisis in seven decades, the changes would begin to reverse a determined campaign pressed in the 1980s by President Ronald Reagan to cut back on federal regulations."

Open Letter on Health Care � The Foundry:
Health care reform has been a central goal of The Heritage Foundation since our creation more than three decades ago, and so we welcomed President Barack Obama’s call for a common effort to find the right solution to this public policy challenge. We believe that putting families, not the government, in control of the system is the key to success. We want to strengthen our health system based on that principle."

How to Crush Debate by Clifford D. May on National Review Online
How to Crush Debate by Clifford D. May on National Review Online:
Following the deadly shootings of a Kansas abortion doctor and a guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, two prominent New York Times columnists, Paul Krugman and Frank Rich, spoke out forcefully against those in the media who spout lies and, possibly, incite violence.
There are “lunatics” out there, Krugman wrote, and “media organizations wind up such people at their, and our, peril.” Rich warned of “toxic rhetoric” and “media demagogues,” fueling a rage that “could spiral out of control.”
So imagine my shock to see on the new Times website an item saying: “Cliff May argued that torture is justified against Muslims because they’re Muslim.”"

Are you confused by all that has changed since Pres. Barack Obama took office in January? If so, you’re not alone. Perhaps, though, this handy guide to Age of Obama “logic” might be of some assistance.
1. The Budget. Wanting to cut $17 billion from the budget, as President Obama has promised, is proof of financial responsibility. Borrowing $1.84 trillion this year for new programs is “stimulus.” The old phrase “out-of-control spending” is inoperative."

American Thinker: After Obama Fails
American Thinker: After Obama Fails:
A failed presidency for Barack Obama could turn into liberalism's worst nightmare. Barely six months into his term, the 44th president has succeeded in generating the most widespread and serious discussion of secession since the Civil War. Despite what Newsweek's Evan Thomas may claim, Obama is not the 'God' who will bring us together but the autocratic sponsor of an overbearing, oppressive leviathan from which a growing number of Americans are seeking refuge."

Guess who's going to be much better off thanks President Obama's health care scheme?
I read a fascinating survey recently. According to Rasmussen,
Forty-two percent (42%) of Americans say every one in the United States should have free health care. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 44% disagree."

WASHINGTON -- After a fairly smooth opening, President Barack Obama faces new concerns among the American public about the budget deficit and government intervention in the economy as he works to enact ambitious health and energy legislation, a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll finds.
These rising doubts threaten to overshadow the president's personal popularity and his agenda, in what may be a new phase of the Obama presidency."
