David Boaz: It’s the End of 2009. Where Are Our Troops?
"This is not the change we hoped for. President Obama rose to power on the basis of his early opposition to the Iraq war and his promise to end it. But after a year in the White House he has made both of George Bush’s wars his wars.
"Speaking of Iraq in February 2008, candidate Barack Obama said, 'I opposed this war in 2002. I will bring this war to an end in 2009. It is time to bring our troops home.' The following month, under fire from Hillary Clinton, he reiterated, 'I was opposed to this war in 2002….I have been against it in 2002, 2003, 2004, 5, 6, 7, 8 and I will bring this war to an end in 2009. So don’t be confused.'
"Indeed, in his famous 'the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow' speech on the night he clinched the Democratic nomination, he also proclaimed, 'I am absolutely certain that generations from now we will be able to look back and tell our children that . . . this was the moment when we ended a war.'
"Now he has doubled down on the war in Afghanistan and has promised to keep the war in Iraq going for another 19 months, after which we will have 50,000 American troops in Iraq for as far as the eye can see. If McCain had proposed this sort of minor tweaking of the Bush policy, I think we’d see antiwar rallies in 300 cities. Calling the antiwar movement!
"President Obama’s promises are becoming less credible. He says that after all this vitally necessary and unprecedented federal spending, he will turn his attention to constraining spending at some uncertain date in the future. And he says that he will first put more troops into Afghanistan, and then withdraw them at some uncertain date in the future ('in July of 2011,' but 'taking into account conditions on the ground'). Voters are going to be skeptical of both these promises to accelerate now and then put on the brakes later."

Robert Spencer: Flight 253: The Failure of Counterterrorism
"The 'system worked'? So the 'system' now involves hoping that other passengers will tackle the jihadist? After all, a passenger on Flight 253, Jasper Schuringa, subdued Abdulmutallab. The “system” now relies on all of the jihadis’ detonators failing, as did Abdulmutallab’s? Napolitano’s optimism was based on an appalling disconnect from reality that in saner times would result in her dismissal. Barack Obama, by contrast, would be more likely to issue her a commendation, if he weren’t too busy golfing and shooting hoops during his Hawaii vacation."

London Telegraph: Barack Obama gets an 'F' for protecting Americans
"Yes, the buck stops in the Oval Office. Obama may have rather smugly given himself a 'B+' for his 2009 performance but he gets an F for the events that led to Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab boarding a Detroit-bound plane in Amsterdam with a PETN bomb sewn into his underpants. He said today that a 'systemic failure has occurred'. Well, he’s in charge of that system."
Does sex sell movies? Uh, not really
"When it comes to movies, it may be that sex doesn't sell.

Politico: Handling problems the Obama way
"First, White House aides downplay the notion that something may have gone wrong on their part. While staying out of the spotlight, the president conveys his efforts to address the situation and his feelings about it through administration officials. After a few days, the White House concedes on the issue, and perhaps Barack Obama even steps out to address it.
"That same scenario unfolded over the summer, when Obama said Sgt. James Crowley, a white Cambridge, Mass., police officer, 'acted stupidly' when he arrested Henry Louis Gates Jr., a black Harvard professor, in his own home. It happened in March when the public was outraged over AIG dishing out hefty bonuses. More recently the public witnessed the dynamic after a security breach at President Barack Obama’s first state dinner.
"But the fact that the issue now is a terrorist incident — albeit an unsuccessful one — makes the stakes much higher, and the White House’s usual approach more questionable. That this test of his leadership comes while he’s on vacation in tropical Hawaii further complicates things.

Judicial Watch: President makes Top 10 list of corrupt politicians
"President Obama has been named to a "Top 10" list he'd likely be grateful to avoid: Judicial Watch's "Ten Most Wanted Corrupt Politicians," for 2009.
"'The Obama White House believes,' said the report from the organization that monitors government for corruption, and sues when it chooses, 'it can violate the privacy rights of American citizens without any legal consequences or accountability.'
"The report released yesterday said Obama joined the likes of Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass.; Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner; Attorney General Eric Holder; House Speaker Nancy Pelosi; Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa.; and Sen. Christopher Dodd, D-Conn., on the list.
"'Even before President Obama was sworn into office, he was interviewed by the FBI for a criminal investigation of former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich's scheme to sell the president's former Senate seat to the highest bidder,' the report said.
"'Moreover, the Obama administration made the startling claim that the Privacy Act does not apply to the White House. The Obama White House believes it can violate the privacy rights of American citizens without any legal consequences or accountability,' the report said."

Damage from health care reform reaches beyond health care boundaries
"During formulation of the Senate Finance Committee’s health care bill, a group including Senator Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) and John Kerry (D-MA) proposed an idea that would raise billions of dollars in additional tax revenue to help offset the enormous costs of the health care takeover by limiting the value of itemized deductions, such as donations to charity. The proposal would hold the value of charitable deductions at 35 cents on a dollar, while the top tax rate rises to more than 39 percent when the Bush tax cuts expire in 2011."

Ellen Brown: Compulsory Private Health Insurance: Just Another Bailout of the Financial Sector?
"Rather than focusing on making health care affordable, the bills focus on how to force people either to buy health insurance if they don’t have it, or to pay more for it if they do. If you don’t have insurance and don’t purchase it, you will be subject to a hefty fine. And if you do purchase it, premiums, co-pays, co-insurance payments and deductibles are liable to keep health care cripplingly expensive. Most of the people who don't have health care can't afford to pay the deductibles, so they will never use the plans they are forced to buy."

Black Pirates
"The black pirate most often written about is Black Caesar. Legend identifies him as a tall African chief with great strength and keen intelligence. A conniving captain lured him and his warriors aboard a slaver with greater treasures than the gold watch that fascinated Caesar. Once on board, the captain and his men plied the Africans with food while enticing them musical instruments, jewels, silk scarves, and furs. With his focus on these unusual treasures, Caesar failed to notice that the slaver put to sea. Upon learning the truth, he and his men fought the ship’s crew, but the slavers eventually subdued the Africans."

Seven Psychological Principles Con Artists Exploit
"•The distraction principle: While you are distracted by what retains your interest, hustlers can do anything to you and you won’t notice.
•The social compliance principle: Society trains people not to question authority. Hustlers exploit this “suspension of suspiciousness” to make you do what they want.
•The herd principle: Even suspicious marks will let their guard down when everyone next to them appears to share the same risks. Safety in numbers? Not if they’re all conspiring against you.
•The dishonesty principle: Anything illegal you do will be used against you by the fraudster, making it harder for you to seek help once you realize you’ve been had.
•The deception principle: Thing and people are not what they seem. Hustlers know how to manipulate you to make you believe that they are.
•The need and greed principle: Your needs and desires make you vulnerable. Once hustlers know what you really want, they can easily manipulate you.
•The Time principle: When you are under time pressure to make an important choice, you use a different decision strategy. Hustlers steer you towards a strategy involving less reasoning."

Are Black Voters For Obama Racists? (May 2008)
"But Obama’s color and the pride blacks take in making history tell only part of the story of why so many of them cheer him. Obama is a Democrat, and so are the overwhelming majority of black voters. They have given every Democratic presidential candidate and incumbent since Lyndon Johnson in 1964 a consistent, and at times off the chart, percentage of their votes. They gave Democratic presidential candidates Al Gore and John Kerry nearly 90 percent of their vote, and those were white Democrats. If Obama hadn’t come along, many would have been just as exuberant about Hillary Clinton, and they would have given her as big, if not bigger, a percent of their vote than Gore or Kerry got. In fact, given the love fest many blacks had with Bill Clinton – at least before his perceived early campaign racial mudsling at Obama – Hillary Clinton still might have gotten a respectable percentage of black votes."
Brother X says: "If there was no Obama, Hillary would have been our choice. She would have been the wife of our first black president Bill Clinton.
But since she ran against Obama, she was a white racist. How dare she run against the second first black president!"

ECONOMIC BAILOUT OVERWHELMINGLY DEFEATED BY ECONOMIC REGULATION
"The Obama Administration’s remedy for the economy is a bit like that of a confused physician who offers hemlock to end the suffering of a desperately ill patient. That remedy will stop the suffering but only at the expense of the patient’s life. Extreme expansion in government spending and regulation will eventually end what ails the free market but only because it will eliminate the free market altogether. What remains after a free market is no mystery, it is government everywhere, more regulation down to the minutest level, where all are servants of the state and where economic mediocrity is the rule and every incentive to invent, produce, and accumulate capital is obliterated. That is the modern equivalent of slavery, replacing a million competing titans of industry with one gargantuan combination of market control and law—the totalitarian state."

Angry Seniors Brace for Obamacare Cuts
"Insurers constantly caution seniors that their Medicare Advantage perks such as hearing aids, dental payments and even gym memberships will fizzle if Democrats get their way and cut government subsidies for them.
"But tens of billions of Medicare dollars funneled through insurers also pay for extras that never reach beneficiaries: multimillion-dollar salaries, executive retreats in Hawaii, Scotland and Cancun, and massive expenditures on marketing to lure more customers to the privately administered Advantage plans that serve as an alternative to government-provided Medicare.
"The government-subsidized benefits that seniors on Advantage plans receive — often at premiums lower than Medicare premiums — are real, and are legitimately in danger in some cases if Democrats succeed in their health care overhaul."

Dr. Laina Farhat-Holzman: America Isn’t Immune to Homegrown Terrorism
"How can one account for a 'nice' immigrant Afghan coffee vendor in New York, Najibullah Zazi, going to Pakistan for explosives training with the intent to stage an attack in the US? He was picked up in Colorado trying to buy chemicals.
"Most dangerous of all is the Chicagoan, David Coleman Headly, 49, who with that name, age, and money, would never have been profiled as a terrorist. Headly changed his name from Gilani to Headly, a name that would fly below the radar on his passport. He apparently had every advantage of upbringing (American mother), social status, and money. Yet he was a frequent globetrotter scouting sites for al Qaeda’s murderous rampages, the most successful of which was the attack on Mumbai that left 166 people dead. Most recently, he was scouting a planned attack on the Danish newspaper that published the Mohammad cartoons."
Ellis Washington: Obama: A sudden catastrophe
"Even many of Obama's most ardent supporters agree that his first year in office has been a catastrophe:
- Increasing the national debt from $10 trillion in eight years under GWB to over $14 trillion;
- Nationalizing private corporations like GM, Chrysler, AIG, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac;
- Bowing before murderous dictator nations like Saudi Arabia and China;
- Undeservedly receiving the Nobel Peace Prize after only two weeks in office, and;
- Appointing the basest of men (and women) to Cabinet-level positions and as czars to propagate the most anti-constitutional and hurtful policies against America."
Hilmar von Campe: The waging battle between truth and lies
"Most Americans do not have a clue what a totalitarian system is. Let me tell you from experience: It is a godless society where there is no justice.

Totalitarian systems grow out of immorality. Immoral people can be manipulated; moral people cannot. Protest, and you will be sanctioned. We will experience the end of freedom and the rule of the lie. Founding Fathers will be presented as greedy capitalists. There will be multi-religious 'faiths,' which includes watered-down Christianity. We had that in Germany. The 'German Christians' promoted National Socialism in religious language."
Chris Rizo: CBO stands by estimate tort reform will save taxpayers billions

"Republicans, who have long called for legal reforms to help cut skyrocketing health care costs, used the CBO estimate as a rallying call for limits on medical malpractice lawsuits.
"But Democrats, who largely back President Barack Obama's effort to change how U.S. health insurance companies do business, balked at the CBO's estimate."

"Quasimodo in Number 10, hunched, scowling over his desk, has devised yet another plan to police, to increase surveillance, to indulge his obsession with extending his short-lived control over as many people as possible. Gordon Brown, who now seems to have lost his last tenuous grip on reality, wants the European Union to police the carbon emissions of the whole world. That is the leitmotif of New Labour – and, by extension, all Westminster – government: control, bans, observation, intrusion, diktat.
"Balked of a legal agreement on imaginary manmade global warming at Copenhagen, Quasimodo and Nicolas Sarkozy are working on plans to create a 'European monitoring organisation' to oversee different countries’ actions on carbon emissions.

DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS? -- White House moves to restrict criticism of stimulus projects
"'First, we will expand the restriction on oral communications to cover all persons, not just federally registered lobbyists. For the first time, we will reach contacts not only by registered lobbyists but also by unregistered ones, as well as anyone else exerting influence on the process. We concluded this was necessary under the unique circumstances of the stimulus program.
"'Second, we will focus the restriction on oral communications to target the scenario where concerns about merit-based decision-making are greatest –after competitive grant applications are submitted and before awards are made. Once such applications are on file, the competition should be strictly on the merits.

A Guide for Aspiring Race Hustlers and Poverty Pimps:
How to be Black for Fun and Profit
Part 1
by Brother X
If you always wanted to be the kind of Black leader who cares only about your ego, your bank account, and your self-preservation above the needs of the community and want to make a fabulous living from the Black community and White guilt, then this is what you must do:
First of all, you must convince your constituency that all Whites will always do their best to hinder Black progress. There is no such thing as “The American Dream” for Blacks. You must convince them that Whites are always burning the midnight oil, always thinking of new, innovative, and creative ways to oppress your constituency. Always convince your constituency that all Whites in general are devils, unspeakably evil and always will be. Always give them the impression “Whitey’s gonna get you.”
Convince them that mass genocide, except by abortion, is very close around the corner. (Never attack the rich, white abortion industry! They may have the wrong skin color, but their green money is very good looking!) Keep your Black folk scared. Keep your Black folks angry! Encourage them to satisfy their thirst for an elusive “freedom” by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. Do not encourage them to struggle on a high plane of dignity and discipline. Never let them know there is such a thing called “personal responsibility,” which only can be a White man’s concept. Let them wallow in the valley of despair.
Keep your Black folks worked up! And you must show your constituency that you will always be their only friend and voice for them. You must always “romance” them, wine and dine them so to speak. Appeal to their egos. Make them feel superior to all other ethnic communities. Make them feel that the “outside communities” of all ethnic groups will never accept them. You must actually control and isolate your people, rather than really care about them. Do everything to make them feel good, to make them want to be “movin’ on up” just like The Jeffersons. Promise them a “piece of the pie.” Just like Jack Nicholson said to Tom Cruise in A Few Good Men, “You can’t handle the truth!” your constituency cannot handle the truth. The truth is they must stay on the “plantation.” You want them to be dependent on you. You want to be popular enough so that your word is law. People will do what you tell them to do on blind faith. People will vote the way you tell them to vote, sight unseen because you are their leader.
Let people believe that a victory for one Black is a victory for all Blacks, like when boxer Joe Lewis beat that white German years ago. It will make them feel good, but it may not necessarily change their own personal situation or their community. But change is not your concern. Making them feel good is your concern.
Remember, poverty is your best friend as long as it does not come to stay at your house. Just keep on demanding that the government do what it is not designed to do. Demand that the government end poverty NOW (ain’t gonna happen). If the masses of people found a way to get out of poverty, you would not be needed anymore. Your funding sources would dry up. You would be in the unfortunate position of having to find a real job. You are in this game for three things only – Reputation, Power, and Money.
Constantly make big threats to the media about “hell breaking loose” and brothers and sisters “finding freedom at home.” Make big demands and say if those demands are not met by a certain deadline, there will be “serious consequences.” Burn, baby burn! Two wrongs don’t make a right but it damn sure makes it even. Accuse the government of constantly attacking your constituency and keeping them in poverty. And if your feelings get hurt, cry “Racism!” Blame the White man at every opportunity. Also get on Black radio talk shows and blame every problem there is in the Black community on racism and the Republicans and say you are trying to get Black folks to wake up.
You should always demand that the federal, state, county, and city governments take the responsibility of solving all the problems of the Black community. Your constituency must believe that it is the government’s responsibility to provide jobs. They must believe it is the government’s responsibility to provide health care. They must believe it is the government’s responsibility to reduce crime. They must believe it is the government’s responsibility to provide housing. They must believe it is the government’s responsibility to keep on spending money on schools since lack of money is absolutely the only reason why Black children are not getting a good education. They must believe it is the government’s responsibility to end poverty. They must believe the solution to the ills of the Black community is “electing the right people.” If a young Black man from your constituency says that welfare is something “the White man owes me,” you have done your job well. Congratulations!
If you are in a city with a Black Mayor, a Black Congressman, a Black city manager, a Black superintendent of schools, a Black county treasurer, a Black chief of police, a Black fire chief, Blacks on the county Board of Supervisors, Blacks on the school board, etc., if there are any problems in those governments, find any White man somewhere to blame. Remember, our Black elected officials are NEVER to be held accountable, even if caught with $90,000 in their Louisiana home freezer. (The White man and slavery made him freeze his money.) They are innocent even if proven guilty.
Celebrate “diversity,” but never, ever tolerate diversity of thought or opinion. Only your opinion matters in the community. And yours is the only correct view.
On the subject of the media, whenever you are interviewed, remember, you are representing the authentic Black point of view. Say something controversial and when you are later challenged on it, say that your comments were taken out of context. Even better, blame the White establishment of trying to distort your message. Accuse them of always trying to get you and to take you down. You must be the “consummate victim.”
Call any White person who criticizes you or your Black friends a Nazi, Klan member, Aryan Nations member, cracker, Dixiecrat, honky conservative, or just a plain old White supremacist and do your best to keep them feeling guilty. Call all Black people who criticizes you house negroes, sellouts, Uncle Toms, whitewashes, sugarcanes, Oreo ™ cookies, coconuts, Uncle Toms, Trojan Horses, fades, bug-eyes, Judases, race traitors, handkerchief-head Negroes, Uncle Toms, self-haters, Uncle Toms, boot-lickers, wannabes, parasites, self-loathers, Uncle Toms, Sambos, Farinas, Stymies, Buckwheats, hyenas, wombats, weasels, Uncle Toms, brown pelicans, servants of the right-wing, Uncle Toms, or anything else you can think of that is a good insult. For example, if one has the name Ezola, call her “Ebola” or if she is named Condolezza, call her “Condemnesia.” Publicly accuse the feet-shuffling, sellout, disrespectful, self-hating Uncle Tom and Aunt Jemima, Stepin Fetchit sycophant, extremist, persona-non-grata Blacks who call themselves “conservatives” and who oppose you as being self-serving house-negro whores of the White establishment. If they call you on any facts you cannot dispute, ask them publicly “What are the White folks paying you to say all that?” to embarrass them. You completely must tarnish their reputations before any of your constituency takes what they say seriously. Some of them just may listen to them. Accuse them of having Messianic complexes and delusions of grandeur while saying “Yassa Massah! We’s good black folks. We sho’ gonna do whate’r yall say!” to their White puppet masters. Tell your constituency these sellouts are the “enemy within,” and they must be exposed and opposed vigorously. It is your duty to isolate them, And your constituency must never, ever in life accept them. You must always have people question their Blackness. Remember, dissent within the Black community you must never tolerate. Criticism from the White community you must never tolerate. Your constituency must know that to deviate from your standard doctrines is to “work against the Black race” and is contributing to their genocide. Freedom of thought must never be encouraged. You must make other Blacks afraid to openly express feelings other than your standard doctrine. Make them afraid to be called Uncle Toms. And you must never let anyone question your commitment to your constituency. You must be recognized as the Keeper of the Blackness.
When you talk to the media, exaggerate instances of racism. For example, if there was Black voter suppression in one election, for the next election, plan on mentioning unconfirmed reports of voter suppression in several states. Who will check you out? It makes for a good entertaining sound byte. The media will not hold you responsible for hearsay, and your constituency will love you for your “honest” vigilance. Besides those comments maybe forgotten. If not, at least you planted the seeds of suspicion.
If there have been overt cases of racism and genocide that does not serve your purpose in any way, like gun control laws that disarmed Blacks and not Whites over 100 years ago, or the Negro Project (endorsed by Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger) that sought to sterilize Black men in the south in the 30’s, Black slavery in Africa (which has been going on for 800 years), or the massacre of 800,000 Blacks by Blacks in Rwanda, ignore them. You are not interested in Black-on-Black genocide at all. Only White-on-Black genocide is a tragedy worthy of recognition. Blacks killing other Blacks is NEVER as bad as Whites killing Blacks. You need to high profile cases of White racism and genocide that will boost your reputation, power, and money. If anyone tries to make any useless cases of genocide public, tell them to back off. It is only working against your cause, which is reputation, power, and money.

John W. Whitehead: If the President Does It, It's Not Illegal?
"Since 9/11, George W. Bush has been trampling all over the Constitution. Unfazed by public opinion, the law or Congress, Bush seems to think he can get away with anything."
I told you I'm not a fan of Bush, but Obama only follows in his footsteps.
Go to "America Under Barack Obama" http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig8/whitehead6.1.1.html
JW: Do you consider Obama to be worse than George W. Bush?
NH: Oh, much worse. Bush essentially came in with very little qualifications for presidency, not only in terms of his background but he lacked a certain amount of curiosity, and he depended entirely too much on people like Rumsfeld, Cheney and others. Bush was led astray and we were led astray. However, I never thought that Bush himself was, in any sense, "evil." I am hesitant to say this about Obama. Obama is a bad man in terms of the Constitution. The irony is that Obama was a law professor at the University of Chicago. He would, most of all, know that what he is doing weakens the Constitution.
In fact, we have never had more invasions of privacy than we have now. The Fourth Amendment is on life support and the chief agent of that is the National Security Agency. The NSA has the capacity to keep track of everything we do on the phone and on the internet. Obama has done nothing about that. In fact, he has perpetuated it. He has absolutely no judicial supervision of all of this. So all in all, Obama is a disaster.
JW: Obama is not reversing the Bush policies as he promised. But even in light of this, many on the Left are very, very quiet about Obama. Why is that?
NH: I am an atheist, although I very much admire and have been influenced by many traditionally religious people. I say this because the Left has taken what passes for their principles as an absolute religion. They don't think anymore. They just react. When they have somebody like Obama whom they put into office, they believed in the religious sense and, of course, that is a large part of the reason for their silence on these issues. They are very hesitant to criticize Obama, but that is beginning to change. Even on the cable network MSNBC, some of the strongest proponents of Obama are now beginning to question, if I may use their words, their "deity."
That is called "chump change."

Julia Szabo: The Latest Advice From the Eco-Zealots: Eat Your Pets
"In their unfortunately titled book Time to Eat the Dog: The Real Guide to Sustainable Living, New Zealanders Robert and Brenda Vale — self-described specialists in sustainable living at Victoria University in Wellington — charge that the carbon paw-print of a pet dog is double that of an SUV driving 6,200 miles a year, while a pet cat has an eco claw-print slightly less than driving a Volkswagen Golf for a year. Confirming these results, John Barrett of the Stockholm Environment Institute in York, Britain, said, 'Owning a dog really is quite an extravagance.' Pets’ detrimental impact on the environment is not limited to their carbon footprint, the Vales insist; if permitted to roam, predatory dogs and cats devastate wildlife (squirrels, birds, frogs) while their fecal matter spreads bacteria and disease in rivers and streams, killing aquatic life."

Give Me Liberty or Give Me Social Justice
"The left is upset because neither the House nor Senate version goes far enough towards putting government firmly in control of our medical decisions, with the goal of providing equal coverage for all no matter what the price. The right is upset because we see the bills’ provisions as unwarranted intrusions on our liberty that create a 'right' where none existed before. We believe that reform would be better handled by fostering competition in the private sector rather than increasing government intervention in vital decisions that should remain between doctor and patient."
Burt Prelutsky: Obama's year-end report card
"A recent poll determined that 46 percent of Americans approve of Obama's performance, while 54 percent disapprove. But if you dig a little deeper, you discover that 61 percent of white Americans disapprove, and it's only because a whopping 97 percent of blacks give him a big thumbs-up that the numbers are as close as they are. So much for the post-racial America candidate Obama promised us."

Nancy Morgan: What Has Obama Accomplished?
"Ignored by the left and the media, however, is the inconvenient fact that every single policy promoted by Obama and passed by congress has been a dismal failure. From the jobs 'stimulus' package that has cost taxpayers a whopping $236,436 per job created - to the the 'cash for clunkers' - to the $61 billion bucks taxpayers just lost through the AIG and auto industry bailout.
"Add in the $75 billion mortgage relief program to stem the largely government caused 'foreclosure crisis.' This program has helped a grand total of 31,000 borrowers to date, a paltry 4% of the 760,000 who have applied.
"Despite the dismal failures of these policies, Obama and his cohorts continue advocating more of the same. As Dr. Sowell points out, 'The anointed are often wrong but never in doubt.'"
JB Williams: From Hope to Hopeless in Ten Months
"Like most kids of the new generation, this young man saw hope in the election of the 'first black president' a little over a year ago. He had been told that this would be the end of racism in America, that this modern 'Messiah' of moderate campaign rhetoric was something to celebrate around the world.
"He was one of the 65% of Americans who had great hope for the new president on Inauguration Day 2009. He didn’t understand the 30% of Americans who had great doubts about the new American Messiah, and couldn’t begin to comprehend the 5% of Americans who had no strong opinion either way.
"But today he is one of the 55% of Americans who oppose everything the new Messiah has done to his country and his future, in just ten short months. And as he watches the international left drive his country further and further into economic depression, and divide the American people like never before in history, he knows that this cannot end well for his generation…"

"Beck noted the lengthy waiting times for care under Britain’s socialist National Health Service (NHS). These figures were provided by the BBC on May 27, 2009:
*cataract surgery – 8 months
*hip replacement – 11 months
*knee replacement – 12 months
*slipped disc – 5 months
*hernia repair – 5 months"
Joseph Klein: Is The French President A Racist For Mocking Obama's Naivety?
"I expect Jimmy Carter and his like-minded leftists to play the race card any day now against Sarkozy for daring to criticize our President, much less for daring to mock the naive approach of the Annointed One (as Sean Hannity calls Obama) to the world. Too bad that Hannity or Bill O’Reilly did not put all of Sarkozy’s words on the air."
AP: Top Cuban official says Obama lied in Copenhagen
"Cuba's foreign minister called President Barack Obama an 'imperial and arrogant' liar Monday for his conduct at the U.N. climate conference, a reflection of the communist island's increasingly fiery verbal attacks on the U.S. government.
"Bruno Rodriguez spent an hour and a half lambasting Obama's behavior in Copenhagen, telling a news conference, 'at this summit, there was only imperial, arrogant Obama, who does not listen, who imposes his positions and even threatens developing countries.'"
I wonder if the Congressional Black Caucus will object.

Kevin Jackson: Today's House Negros
"At least those [house] Negroes would tell the field slaves, from time to time, what massa was up to, and they would even slip them food and supplies from out of the big house to the slave quarters. These modern day house Negroes (you know who you are) would never share with those they consider field slaves."

David Michael Green: Now I'm Really Getting Pissed Off

Warner Todd Huston: New Ad: Lefty Group Calls Obama a Liar
"A lefty Political Action Committee called Bold Progressives PAC is fed up with the political lies of … President Obama. They are chiefly upset at his lie that he never campaigned on the public option part of his socialist healthcare plan. Being good commies, Bold Progressives are a bit ticked off that Obama took a step back from his initial stated intention to torpedo any healthcare bill that didn’t have a public option included."

AL CALLOWAY SAYS: Will few blacks vote in 2010 elections?
"Actually, the more than 90 percent of black voters nationwide who vote Democratic get nothing commensurate for supporting Democratic Party political campaigns and going to the polls and voting for Democratic candidates – mostly for an entire Democratic slate!
"And where there are black elected officials representing largely black communities, in too many instances those communities tend to fare worse overall during their tenure in office. But those politicians emerge owning properties and doing well as consultants, et al.
"It is common for black voters to stay away from the polls during mid-term elections. Why? Because in the main, black voters are not up on the issues and know very little about the candidates and the offices they are seeking.
(This is a black writer telling the awful truth. This is embarrassing.)
"Blacks vote in very large numbers every four years for president, and vote the Democratic slate as they are told to do by black Democratic Party shills. They even help elect judges who were former prosecutors with sterling records as white nationalists."
I read where a young black man in Chicago said "The way Jesse Jackson tells us, we will vote!" We are the only ethic group that has other people doing the thinking for us.
Massa and their black overseers did the thinking for us too years ago. What a coincidence.

Nearly 60 percent Say President Obama’s Decisions ‘Bad for America’
"The poll also shows that 58 percent of Americans believe that decisions by the Obama administration have been 'bad for America,' as opposed to 37 percent who think Obama’s decisions have been 'good for America.'"
Brent Bozell: A Year of Obama Love
"The year 2009 might be classified as the year Barack Obama came down to Earth. The latest NBC-Wall Street Journal poll found that 47 percent approve of the job Obama is doing, and 46 percent disapprove. Those are not exactly Messiah numbers.
"And that's the big difference between the public and the press. The media do believe he's God."
I must be an Obama atheist.

Peter Schiff: Dropping the Bomb on Health Care
"However, the health care bill removes the need for healthy individuals to carry insurance. Knowing that they could always find coverage if it were eventually needed, people would simply forgo paying expensive premiums while they are healthy, and then sign on when they need it. But insurance companies cannot survive if all of their policyholders are filing claims!"

Larry Elder: Obamacare: Freedom on life support
"A liberal once asked me: 'What should society do about the poor? Is your attitude "just (expletive) them"?' I said: 'Allow me to rephrase your question. Because of someone's plight, is he entitled to money from you?' 'No,' he said, 'but it's the right thing to do.' Yes, a moral, compassionate society cares for those who cannot care for themselves. This is, however, an entirely different matter from using the power of government to take from someone who has, to give to someone who doesn't. The Constitution does not provide that authority. Nor has it been amended to do so."
World Net Daily: Santa Claus and the other Christmas lie
"Just north of Copenhagen is Santa Claus. Well, no – Santa Claus is a lie, too. He does not live at the North Pole, does not fly around the world, does not come down the chimney and does not exist. When parents tell children that Santa will bring them gifts at Christmas, that's a lie. It may be considered a nice lie, but it is a lie. Therefore, some people have chosen to not tell their children about Santa Claus, simply because that's a lie and it's wrong to lie."

Senate votes to keep Medicare cuts in health bill
"Senators voted 58-42 to reject an amendment by Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., that would have stripped more than $400 billion in Medicare cuts from the nearly $1 trillion measure. It would have sent the entire 2,074-page bill back to the Senate Finance Committee for a redo.
"Republicans said the proposed cuts to health insurance plans and medical providers mean seniors in the popular Medicare Advantage program will lose benefits. And they predicted lawmakers will ultimately back away from the cuts, once seniors start feeling the brunt."
Why are not black seniors complaining?

John Stossel: There's No Such Thing as Free Health Care
"In England, health care is 'free'—as long as you don't mind waiting. People wait so long for dentist appointments that some pull their own teeth. At any one time, half a million people are waiting to get into a British hospital. A British paper reports that one hospital tried to save money by not changing bedsheets. Instead of washing sheets, the staff was encouraged to just turn them over.
"Obama insists he is not 'trying to bring about government-run healthcare.'
"'But government management does the same thing,' says Sally Pipes of the Pacific Research Institute. 'To reduce costs they'll have to ration—deny—care.'
"'People line up for care, some of them die. That's what happens,' says Canadian doctor David Gratzer, author of The Cure. He liked Canada's government health care until he started treating patients.
"'The more time I spent in the Canadian system, the more I came across people waiting for radiation therapy, waiting for the knee replacement so they could finally walk up to the second floor of their house.' 'You want to see your neurologist because of your stress headache? No problem! Just wait six months. You want an MRI? No problem! Free as the air! Just wait six months.'
"Polls show most Canadians like their free health care, but most people aren't sick when the poll-taker calls. Canadian doctors told us the system is cracking. One complained that he can't get heart-attack victims into the ICU.
"In America, people wait in emergency rooms, too, but it's much worse in Canada. If you're sick enough to be admitted, the average wait is 23 hours.
"'We can't send these patients to other hospitals.' Dr. Eric Letovsky told us. 'Every other emergency department in the country is just as packed as we are.'
"More than a million and a half Canadians say they can't find a family doctor. Some towns hold lotteries to determine who gets a doctor. In Norwood, Ontario, 20/20 videotaped a town clerk pulling the names of the lucky winners out of a lottery box. The losers must wait to see a doctor.
"Shirley Healy, like many sick Canadians, came to America for surgery. Her doctor in British Columbia told her she had only a few weeks to live because a blocked artery kept her from digesting food. Yet Canadian officials called her surgery 'elective.'
"'The only thing elective about this surgery was I elected to live,' she said.
"It's true that America's partly profit-driven, partly bureaucratic system is expensive, and sometimes wasteful, but the pursuit of profit reduces waste and costs and gives the world the improvements in medicine that ease pain and save lives.
"'[America] is the country of medical innovation. This is where people come when they need treatment,' Dr. Gratzer says.
"'Literally we're surrounded by medical miracles. Death by cardiovascular disease has dropped by two-thirds in the last 50 years. You've got to pay a price for that type of advancement.'"
