That’s the headline.  It’s all over the place.  According to whoever wrote this, it could “in theory”, legalize killing abortion doctors.  Pretty harsh huh?  The part they cite that provides that logic is: The bill, sponsored by state Rep. Phil Jensen, a committed foe of abortion rights, alters the state’s legal definition of justifiable homicide by [...]

I’ve decided rather than bitching and moaning about Obamacare passing or not, which inevitably it won’t, and if it does, won’t do squat to fix anything, I’m gonna take the high road and fix it all myself.  If anyone listens, the simplicity will amaze you. First of all, a lot of problems have festered since [...]

Seriously: It just amazes me that all these people are fighting over whether to pass this health care reform and no one, including Nancy Pelosi, has any clue what’s in it. But, regardless of the fact no one knows what this thing will do, or not do, Obama has staked his presidency on it at [...]

Waxman-Markey is the creme of every liberal’s crop of life control legislations.  This thing affects every single aspect of life as you know it.  Surprisingly, it’s not gotten anywhere.  “Cap and trade” has sort of become synonoums with “taxing”.  Now, I a cynic.  I think Waxman-Markey is loonie.  I have yet to have one single [...]

On Facebook we’ve had a lively discussion about the health care reform, health care insurance reform, socialization of health care industry, debate that is now going on between the SEIU and the astroturf disrupters.  It’s gotten pretty heated in the town halls.  Sometimes on Facebook too.  But, since you can’t actually scream or strong-arm someone [...]

Congress passed the Credit Cardholders’ Bill of Rights Act of 2009.  It passed with broad support from both parties and Obama is expected to sign it within a week or so.  A lot of people are saying it will solve the credit card abuses.  Some see it differently. It will reduce the amount of credit [...]

“[Such bills] will not happen when the president has the full legislative and appropriations process in place,” Peter Orszag, director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, told CNN’s “State of the Union with John King.” He argued that the White House had little choice but to support the $410 billion omnibus spending [...]

In her speech to rally the troops to vote for the Rescue package, Nancy Pelosi accepted no responsibility for past actions by either herself or any member of her party.  She put the entire blame on a situation that has festered for thirty years solely on Republicans.  And, then, to top it off, gave a [...]

Now, according to what I’m reading, Nancy Pelosi has agreed to consider an off-shore drilling proposal presented by Democrats.  I’m sure she’ll tout this as a major new idea and an example of the failed economic policies of Bush. However, it’s got thorns attached.  From what I’m reading, and I’ve not read the actual proposals: [...]

That’s the teaser on CNN.  Here’s some of the meat: A Democratic point man on the budget, Sen. Kent Conrad of North Dakota, blasted the administration for its “reckless fiscal policies,” blaming the president’s tax cuts for driving the government into deficit and saying Bush “will be remembered as the most fiscally irresponsible president in [...]
