The Point Of A Public Option Is To Create Competition?

Only in Liberal World, which is about as divorced from reality as Disney World is (but, without all the fun, laughter, and good times), could you get a quote like this (Senator Chucky) Schumer (D-NY) said that Obama isn’t backing away from the public option. “I believe at the end of the day we’ll have […]

Obama Advises Astroturf Brigade To Get Out There For ObamaCare

Racists. Fascists. Nazis. Mobs. Manufactured outrage. Dupes of Big Pharma. Completely fake. Astroturfed. Just a few of the words used against the people who are out there protesting against government run health system overhaul. Yet….. The outcome of the health-care debate weighed partially on Bird’s success (Jeremy Bird is deputy director of OFA), and on […]

IS ObamaCare Unconstitutional?

That is what is discussed in a Washington Post article, amazingly. I guess all the Big Bosses, liberals all, must have had too many cocktails last night to allow this to be printed. Or, perhaps they are just realizing that “gee, this government run health system they are trying to institute will actually affect me. […]

Today’s “Isn’t Government Run Health Grrrrrrreat!” Stories

While Obama and the Donkeys are working on ways to “go it alone,” meaning, “forget those troublesome Republicans, we need to spend our time wacking our Blue Dogs,” I wonder what is going on in the Wonderful World Of Single Payer? A young mother gave birth on a pavement outside a hospital after she was […]

Berserker Wednesday: Howard Dean And The Evil Ice Cream Man

It seems that every time Howard Dean shows up on the national stage, there is an impulse to tell him “dude, chill. You are losing you mind.” But, then, everyone reflects for a second or two and realizes that happened long ago. He’s like your Mom’s brother, who never got married and shows up every […]

President Sparky Hoses AARP, Helps Conservative Group

Hey, remember all the times Obama said that AARP has endorsed his health care plan (well, really, the Congressional Democrats health care plans, since Obama basically outsourced the whole thing to them)? Saying that “they were onboard,” despite the fact that, while they endorse health care reform to reduce costs (just like most of us do,) […]

Palin Wins On Death Panels For Fourth Time

‘Memba this from the Wall Street Journal last week? Palin Wins – If she’s dim and Obama is brilliant, how did he lose the argument to her? The first we heard about Sarah Palin’s “death panels” comment was in a conversation last Friday with an acquaintance who was appalled by it. Our interlocutor is not […]

Does Reading The Bill Really Matter?

USA Today makes a few interesting points There’s a growing movement at town hall meetings and online to make sure members of Congress read the entire health care reform bill before they vote on it, and to make it available to the public at least 72 hours before a vote. “Read the bill” is typically […]

Oh, Good, NY Times Features Another Opinion Piece Written By Barry

I have to say, I am getting really, truly, sick and tired of the health care debate. All we tend to hear are the same talking points repeated again and again and again from President Obama and the Democrats, along with their supporters. Most of which are lies and/or covers for slowly implementing single payer. […]

Left Freaking Out Over Whole Foods, Offers Boycott

Back on August 11th, Whole Foods CEO John Mackey had an opinion piece in ye olde Wall Street Journal, outlining his ideas on health care reform, most of which make pretty darned good sense, and will help keep the industry out of government hands. Ideas such as Remove the legal obstacles that slow the creation […]
