"Barack Obama’s job speech was a paean to free enterprise given with fingers crossed behind his back; for all his talk about real and sustainable job creation coming from the private sector, almost every proposal he offered was more of the same bitter medicine the American public has been fed for the past year. He says small business must create jobs, then argues to divert billions of taxpayer dollars for his 'clean energy' pipe dream. He blames George W. Bush and Republicans in Congress for fiscal irresponsibility while putting in place budget plans which are likely to triple our national debt in the next decade by doubling real welfare spending and by 'government spending a peacetime-record 26% of GDP' this year with little relief in sight thereafter. (And that is without spending for Obamacare.)
"Hours after the president’s speech, Rasmussen Reports released the results of a new poll showing 58% of likely voters opposed to giving bailout money to states, 56% opposing a second stimulus, 53% believing the economy will be helped more by actions of the private sector than of government, and 59% believing that increased government spending will hurt the economy."

Coach Dave Daubenmire: TIGER WOODS NEEDS THE LORD
“For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” -Mark 8:36
William Owens, Jr.: ARROGANCE OF POWER
"Whether or not you believe in Him, God must be considered.
"It would be good advice for a nation on the brink of destruction from within itself to reconsider its course and attitude towards God. Dealing with evil without acknowledging God is like playing football without a helmet. It is complete denial of compelling evidence, historical proof, as well as the testimony of our Founders who drafted our Constitution. Should one continue to engage in such a potentially harmful game of football without a helmet, not only will that individual suffer serious injury, but if such an idea remains unchallenged, eventually, a permanent injury such as a broken neck will occur, followed by the threat of paralysis or even death. Perhaps the comparison shines light on why so many of us seem unable to move in truth, and even worse, why some are just flat out unmoved because of injury we are therefore afraid to tackle that which is evil head on. "

Castro: Obama's Acceptance of Nobel 'Cynical'
"Fidel Castro is calling President Barack Obama's accepting of the Nobel Peace Prize a 'cynical act,' given that he is sending 30,000 more U.S. troops to Afghanistan.
"The 83-year-old former Cuban leader initially applauded Obama's selection, but he has backed off that recently.
"In a column on a government Web site Wednesday, Castro wrote: 'Why did Obama accept the Nobel Peace Prize when he had already decided to take the war in Afghanistan to its ultimate limit?'"
Brother X says "Castro is RACIST!"
David A. Patten: Controversial EPA Ruling Linked to 'Climategate' E-mails
"Republicans and conservative think tanks are calling for the Obama administration to revoke its declaration that carbon dioxide is a dangerous pollutant subject to EPA regulation on the grounds that the EPA's primary source of information for the finding was the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the source of the highly controversial 'Climategate' e-mails.
"Newsmax has verified there are 34 references to IPCC information in the EPA's 25-page 'Proposed Endangerment and Cause or Contribute Findings for Greenhouse Gases,' which was published in the April 24 edition of the Federal Register (pages 18886-18910).
"This is the document the EPA used to support its preliminary finding, which in turn provided the underpinning for the Endangerment Finding issued on Monday."

Katharine DeBrecht: Obama's 15 months of fame
"Obama is like a child TV star who rose to fame because he eloquently delivered a cute catchphrase ('Hope and Change' as opposed to 'Hey, Mikey! He likes it!'), but now finds himself an adolescent in a grown-up world and faced with the task of actually manning up to the responsibilities of a new job for which he applied. Yet, instead of stepping up to the plate, Obama is relying merely on his celebrity status to coast through the sometimes ceremonial and often dire decisions a chief executive must make.
"Since January, Obama has turned the 24-hour news cycle into Obama TV. When Sen. Kit Bond, R-Mo., joked that Obama has appeared on every network except the Food Network, heads must have rolled in the White House for missing that gig. Not to worry, First Lady Michelle is going to appear on 'Iron Chef' America in January."

Erik Rush: Reid plays the 'hate card'
"The opportunism to which I referred concerning the left's alacrity in accusing their adversaries of hatred lies in the fact that they regularly engage in speech and actions that are hateful, or those which inspire hatred. Not only were Reid's comments scurrilous, they were in defense of a key device (health-care reform legislation) by which Congress and the administration will pauperize and ultimately enslave Americans. As difficult as survival has become for millions of Americans, Reid and his colleagues seek to create a scenario in which mere subsistence will become incomprehensibly more difficult for American families – in order to consolidate the power of the former."
