A progressive's anti-Obama epic rant

Thanks to Instapundit for linking an anti-Obama epic rant by progressive political science professor David Michael Green — apparently, it smarts something fierce when the Kool-Aid wears off (boldfacing mine): Like any good progressive, I’ve gone from admiration to hope to disappointment to anger when it comes to this president. Now I’m fast getting to …

That was a lot of snow

Two feet of snow fell here on Saturday and I spent most of Sunday digging out the walkway and driveway. Then I spent the rest of Sunday and today recovering. However, I did read up a bit today on the Senate’s vote on the healthcare reform bill. I agree with the rants on HillBuzz — …

Bitchslap for John Aravosis: Democrats are losing on healthcare reform because their proposals stink — it's not a leadership thang, you fool

H/T for the video to Kathy Shaidle. Note to visiting HillBuzzers: clearly Bob Hope is referring only to Dr. Utopia Democrats. Dear Moe Lane drew my attention to the rant by John Aravosis at Americablog against the Democratic leadership for not being able to get the ever-changing and sometimes top secret healthcare reform legislation through …

Make this viral: how Republican senators can stop the healthcare rationing bill with parliamentary procedure

Eric Erickson at Redstate explains how Republican senators can kill the healthcare reform/rationing bill now before the Senate: The Founding Fathers created a Republic, but 60 Senators are poised to take it away. With the pending disaster of the passage in the Senate of a bill nationalizing one sixth of the U.S. economy and our …

Cthulhu weighs in on Obamacare

Brushing asides comparisons between himself and the monstrous, all-consuming and crazy-making bureaucracy that would be engendered by Obamacare and devour at least one-sixth of the U.S. economy, Cthulhu says he favors the public option but ultimately positions himself as an independent on Obamacare at Interesting News Items.

Camille Paglia marches clueward

Writing in Salon, Camille Paglia reminds me of the story of the seven blind men trying to describe an elephant based on the part of the elephant each one held. Discoursing on the healthcare reform bill just passed in the House of Representatives, she describes the pieces of the socialist totalitarianism that the Democratic leadership …

Healthcare choice … very nice!

Cuban Diva BFF and I talk on the phone almost every day and somehow this Wendy’s commercial from the 1980’s came up a few days ago. She tracked it down so I am embedding it here. I think it’s one of the funniest commercials of all time. But it’s also an illustration in 59 seconds …

No venue is too humble for Obama to use to apply the lipstick of his rhetorical powers to sell the pig of Obamacare

Interesting News Items has the story here. Yes, I know this is the third time I’ve used the expression that Obama is applying “the lipstick of his rhetorical powers to the pig of Obamacare.” I coined it! Update: now it is “the lipstick of his rhetorical powers TO SELL the pig of Obamacare.” I want …

'A racist is a conservative winning an argument with a liberal'

Apparently I caught the two most important moments of yesterday morning’s Obamathon to put the lipstick of Obama’s rhetorical powers on the pig of Obamacare. I’m guessing this because these are the moments I see others have selected to write about. They are: (1), George Stephanopoulos asking Obama if mandating everyone buy health insurance (or …

Obamacare: The Musical!

Tony Passaro sent the link to this video to me this morning — IT. IS. DEE-LISH!!! You may remember Tony is the man who organized 12 busloads of people from Harford County, Maryland, to attend the 9/12 Tea Party in D.C. So, if you watch the video, yes, I know “single payer” is a stigmatized …
