It's Not About Healthcare Stupid

... it's about power:So there was President Obama giving his bazillionth speech on health care, droning yet again that “now is the hour when we must seize the moment,” the same moment he’s been seizing every day of the week for the past year, only this time his genius photo-op guys thought it would look good to have him surrounded by men in white coats.Why is he doing this? Why let “healt

Lt. Col Bill Russell...

...should be the GOP choice to run in the special election to replace Murtha. He had 42% in the 2008 election, a huge fundraising edge and is an excellent candidate. There will not be time for a primary so there will be a choice by the GOP. It better be a wise choice or they will end up with a repeat of NY 23!!! Bill Russell for Congress!Two Republicans were already preparing to run against Murth

More bad news for Barack

Bo's rambling state of the union address has done little to improve his ratings in the polls. After only one year in office, the hope and change candidate continues to be in free fall. It also looks like health care reform will not happen this year and cap and trade is dead. I look forward to the November mid terms. Congressman Murtha passed away yesterday. There will be a special election. I

Tea Party Convention

The Tea Party movement in the United States is probably the most significant new North American conservative movement in decades, and although I question its long-term significance, it does seem to be off to a fast start. In about a year of existence, the movement already has two notches on its belt to mark its relevance on the national stage: the highly successful September 12 demonstration in W

Why Klein didn’t do anything on health care reform

In a speech yesterday, Ex-Albertan premier Ralph Klein talked about his inability to put in place real health care reform and Ken Libin of the National Post does a very nice job of exposing the real reason for Klein’s failure to try and fix health care in his province. (see column here) Ralph Klein had the [...]

Health Care, Education and Trade Offs

Recently, Pascal-Emmanuel Gobry tweeted, in reference to the current U.S. debate about health care reform: Btw, for what it’s worth: I would totally trade single payer for school vouchers. Each party’s big “21st century civil rights” cause, right? This doesn’t really apply to Canada (with us already having “single payer” – an incredibly poor descri

Obama Care Dies, Socialism Stifled

Speaker Nancy Pelosi admitted today that the Democrats no longer have the votes to pass Obama's plan for health care reform ( read takeover). There were no GOP additions to the House of Representatives in special elections, but the victory by Scott Brown is a game changer whether Obama admits it or not. And for now, Americans can breathe a sigh of relief that the central planners have been stymi

Obama should have stayed with Cramer

I remember a year ago, not long after Obama was sworn in as President, he quickly teamed up with Nancy Pelosi to draft massive new legislation thousands of pages long of economic stimulus, cap and trade, and health care reform. Democrat Jim Cramer, host of MSNBC's Mad Money, went on his show to request that Obama slow down and not try to do everything at once. Cramer wasn't even saying that he d

Our Third World Health Care

I am happy to hear that Brock Lesnar is alive and well after surviving what he calls our "3rd world health care system". Brock is a self acclaimed conservative Republican and he was taking the opportunity to utilize his own experiences to refute Obama/Pelosi Health Care reform. What experience is he talking about? He was sleeping in a remote cabin in the Canadian wilderness where he enjoys hunti

Republican tent expands a little

A lot of angst and rejoicing south of the border today as Democrats sulk and Republicans rejoice at the news that Republican State Senator Scott Brown was elected to replace the late Ted Kennedy. Much was riding on the outcome of this special election: Barack Obama’s personal popularity and ability to sway voters after a year in office, elimination of the Democrats bullet-proof senate majority a

Democrats on their heels after the loss in Massachusetts.

The loss of one of the most liberal seats in the entire Union has the Democrats on their heels. One Democrat Senator is calling for a suspension of talks on the health care takeover until Brown is seated, and one Democrat Representative is pushing to move on to jobs.Democrats are being forced to re-evaluate their plans for health care reform after Republican Scott Brown's victory for the U.S. Sen

Democrats (keyword: rats) give special deal to unions.

The Rats have given yet another special deal to yet another special interest group. Unions will be exempt from paying the extra taxes on good health care plans until 2018.In pushing a giant step closer to a health care reform deal, Democratic leaders are once again drawing fire from their critics for extending special treatment to an interest group in exchange for its support of the bill.

Costs well before benefits.

Going against his pledge to not increase taxes on anyone except the upper income, Obama is absolutely gleeful that the new health care bill will likely be passed through the Senate. Unfortunately for all Americans, everyone will feel the pinch well before any supposed benefits kick in.he costs of health care reform being pushed through Congress by Democrats will be felt long before the benefits.Pr

New health care bill in America may be unconstitutional.

Looks like that new health care bill may be getting a constitutional challenge.Organizations and lawmakers opposed to the health care reform package are getting their legal briefs in a bunch, threatening to challenge the constitutionality of the sweeping overhaul should it make its way to President Obama's desk. Republicans have agreed to allow the Democratic-led Senate to move up the time for a

Worst Pro-Healthcare Ad Ever

Use sex (or lack of it) to pass health care. Question: What would you withhold from someone who opposes health care reform? Cookies, a Christmas gift, sex? Wonder who thought this up. George Soros? The good thing is that this strategy will lead to less democrats being born.

Where’s the Outcry Over Human Rights?

A 16-cannon broadside against those who would use cultural relativism to undermine support for international efforts to defend human rights, in the Mark. In matters of social justice – climate change, health-care reform, child protection – we usually, rightfully, start by accusing our governments of a lack of will, of inaction, of breaking promises. We can [...] Related posts:WorldView:

Reid calls those in favour of freedom pro-slavery.

The reality is, Democrats are backwards. The left was in favour of slavery, opposed universal suffrage and opposed the civil rights movement. They have never been for freedom. So it isn't all that surprising when Reid compared people who are against a massive government takeover of health care to people who were in favour of slavery.Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid took his GOP-blasting rhetoric

Who Do You Trust?

Perhaps the worst spokesman ever.. on American Health Care reform. The White House really needs to hire a czar to explain this Obamanation… their current spokesperson isn’t up to the job. Let’s hope Americans kill it soon. The ramifications are huge for the world economy. And not in a good way, Joe.

Will the United States Congress pass health care reform by December 31, and how will failure to do so affect President Barack Obama’s administration given his pledge to pass reform by the end of 2009?
