Afghanistan: the real quagmire

Posted on February 13, 2009 | Comments Off on Afghanistan: the real quagmire

Given Barry’s many policy flipflops since his election, and his Code Pink, etc. base of support, it’s not hard to imagine him finding a rhetorical way out of Afghanistan–especially now that the campaign there is becoming harder than ever to win. For one thing, freelance correspondent Michael Yon says the administration’s proposed thirty thousand new troops won’t be nearly enough.

The secret final stimulus bill

Posted on February 12, 2009 | Comments Off on The secret final stimulus bill

The lobbyists have its actual language, of course. But you? Ha. Just a summary until after it’s voted on tomorrow. Not even the Republicans have read it. So much for claims of bipartisanship. You didn’t really believe all that Obama campaign bull about transparency, did you? You did? Sucker.

Barry’s “staged” presser

Posted on February 12, 2009 | Comments Off on Barry’s “staged” presser

Turns out Mr. Openness decided in advance who would be allowed to question him at his first "news" conference. If Bushitler had been caught doing this… Well. But Barry? So far not a peep of protest from his snooze media clients.

Beyond the “stimulus”: Let the rationing begin

Posted on February 10, 2009 | Comments Off on Beyond the “stimulus”: Let the rationing begin

The "stimulus" bill is actually an elaborate disguise for the beginnings of a national health care system:

"One new bureaucracy [created by the bill], the National Coordinator of Health Information Technology, will monitor treatments to make sure your doctor is doing what the federal government deems appropriate and cost effective. The goal is to reduce costs and ‘guide’ your doctor’s decisions…"

What else is Barry hiding in his gotta-have-it-now-or-else legislation? Beside expanding the welfare rolls once more? Ain’t this no-debate Democrat liberal facism grand?

UPDATE:  Re welfare. Indeed, the Clinton welfare reform is dead. Welfare’s return is here. Just a little sleight of hand, folks. Call it a "stimulus." Heh.

The imperatives of pork

Posted on February 6, 2009 | Comments Off on The imperatives of pork

Barry obviously doesn’t remember the words of his own inaugural address. Fear, it seems, is really where it’s at. Oink, oink.

UPDATE:  Ninety-three percent spending and just seven percent stimulus? Yup, a lying Dumbocrat bill.

The con job continues…

Posted on February 3, 2009 | Comments Off on The con job continues…

So far, just two weeks into Obamalot, there have been many reverses of campaign promises, a dozen lobbyists appointed, and tax cheats galore. The Affirmative Action presidency rolls on. Whatever comes next surely can’t top this. Change it is. Hope? Zero.

UPDATE:  Another pledge broken. Hopenchange was just a slogan. Surprise, surprise. VDH, meanwhile, is more fearful than before about what four years of this could mean.

Drunken sailors spend their own money

Posted on February 2, 2009 | Comments Off on Drunken sailors spend their own money

Not Barry, Nancy, Harry & Charlie–and Barry’s appointed tax cheats Tom and Tim. They spend your money, sucker. Meanwhile, their FEMA ignores Kentucky and Big Media ignores it all (note that the AP story at the link buries the lede in the tenth graph). Not enough poor black people, like in New Orleans, I guess.
