THE FUTURE OF OBAMACARE



Do you really want to trust ObamaCare to the government that brought us Medicare?

THE AUDACITY OF DOPE

Yesterday, Barack Obama had the nerve to tell students at ASU not to take shortcuts and live on credit:

We've become accustomed to our economic dominance in the world, forgetting that it wasn't reckless deals and get-rich-quick schemes that got us where we are, but hard work and smart ideas -- quality products and wise investments. We started taking shortcuts. We started living on credit, instead of building up savings.

Translation: "I've already 'borrowed' it for you."

THE MOST ETHICAL CONGRESS EVER

Nancy Pelosi: "The American people voted to restore integrity and honesty in Washington, D.C., and the Democrats intend to lead the most honest, most open and most ethical Congress in history"

Today, via Instapundit:
Last month, four respected public-interest groups - Democracy 21, Common Cause, Public Citizen and U.S. PIRG - called on the House ethics committee to launch an inquiry into whether campaign contributions from the lobbying firm PMA Group, its employees and clients improperly influenced Democratic lawmakers in deciding whether to fund various projects.

[O]n Tuesday, the House voted 215-182 against a Republican resolution to initiate a House ethics committee inquiry. The vote was not strictly partisan - 29 Democrats went against their leadership in favor of an investigation.

When you're up to your ass in alligators, maybe it's time to drain the swamp. The next opportunity is 2010.

As Glenn is so fond of saying, we're in the best of hands.
