SALT IS GOOD FOR YOU: just not in the way you may have been anticipating.
TEA PARTY GROUPS share views, but don't work together.

So the conventional wisdom is that if you aren't 'too big to fail', you're too small to be effective. I'd say recent history tells a different story.
PRESIDENT NEHEMIAH SCUDDER? For the unitiated, it's a reference to Robert Heinlein's future history and his short novel "If This Goes On --".
SWELL, ANOTHER OBAMACARE 'BENEFIT': the federal government is drafting a
'basic [healthcare] benefits package' for me to pay for.
The health care law requires that essential (my emphasis) benefits include outpatient, hospital, emergency, maternal, newborn and children's care, prescription drugs, mental health and substance abuse treatment, rehabilitation, labs, prevention and wellness.
This is just a mandate by another name. Why not let me choose which benefits I deem essential? Those would be hospitalization and and outpatient/prescription charges equal to those negotiated by the major health insurance companies.

Nothing more.
HERMAN CAIN: "More and more black Americans are thinking for themselves. And that's a good thing."
JOHN STOSSEL: the difference between capitalists and 'crapitalists'.
THE ANATOMY OF A PROTEST: While OWS is deciding what they're protesting, "they might stay off the grass. It's the least they can do for the environment."
OBAMACARE: If It Ain't Broke, By All Means, Break It.
GOOD RIDDANCE: Spew Anti-Semitism at Occupy Rally — Get Fired.
QADDAFI: live by the sword, die by the sword.
SO THOSE 14 MILLION UNEMPLOYED are all public-sector workers?
THOMAS SOWELL: Reverse Racism.
Those people of good will who want to replace the racism of the past with a post-racial society have too often overlooked the fact that there are others who instead want to put racism under new management, to have reverse discrimination as racial payback for past injustices.
"A post-racial society is the last thing that [Attorney General] Holder and [President] Obama are pursuing."
GOOD: Clerk Kills Would-Be Robber Who Grabbed Daughter.
THE LAS VEGAS REPUBLICAN DEBATE: pre-game and post-game.
A GOOD DAY: the 1946 "Blue Angels" flight demonstration team flies with the 2009 Blue Angels. You can either click on the small-screen video, or click on the phrase "enjoy the rest." for a larger version. Endure the commercial.
