ObamaCare at the Supreme Court

Let me try to put the primary issue in context. Everyone should have access to health care, and access to health care requires people be able to pay for health care. The determination is made that the best way to be sure that you have the ability to pay for health care is to purchase [...]

When Rights Become Restrictions. Freedom is Slavery.

“Rights” in the American Constitutional sense are negative rights. Congress shall not do this or do that. You have a right to speak freely, but you don’t have a right to speak freely on another’s dime. You have the right to publish what you wish to express, but you don’t have a right to have [...]

Now, can we have them all arrested for violating their oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution? Probably not, or McCain and Feingold would already be there.

The filibuster, you see, was fundamental to what it means to be an American. Mandated by the Constitution and free with every slice of apple pie. Of course, it’s [...]

Republicans are Angry, Sexually Repressed, Greedy Don’t-Give-a-Damns

As the joy of Christmas fast approaches, I wanted to say a few things about the basic assumptions that prevent the “left” and the “right” from productively discussing the issues that all Americans need to confront in some form or another. Assumptions: To Democrats, Republicans are: At best, Republicans are inward-looking, narrow-minded people who believe [...]

China questions costs of U.S. healthcare reform

Wow, you know your attempted nationalization of the U.S. medical system is in trouble when the Chinese Communists realize you can’t do it without exploding the debt. It turns out the Chinese are kind of curious about how President Barack Obama’s healthcare reform plans would impact America’s huge fiscal deficit. Government officials are using his [...]

PSA – Listen to Overpaid Celebrities

Another bunch of celebrities made another self-righteous video about how the rest of us need to get our act together and pay more taxes for this or that.  Fortunately, the right is getting some creative balls and fighting back.  Here’s a video mocking that Will Farrell “Protect Insurance Companies PSA”.
