PRESIDENT OBAMA VOWS to fight Republican “newfangled schemes” to privatize Social Security.

“I want to encourage people to save more on their own,” Obama said in Ohio. “But I don’t want them taking money out of Social Security so that people are putting that into the stock market.”

Translation: save your own money; Social Security is mine!

LET’S INVESTIGATE THE 9/11 FAMILIES. Why Nancy Pelosi needs to go ....

THE AUDACITY OF TAUPE.

Then: “There are times where you can afford to redecorate your house, and there are times where you need to focus on rebuilding the foundation."

Now: "It [the Oval Office redecoration] looks a little like the décor you'd expect to see in a hotel, the Taupe Executive Room at the Embassy Suites."

So ... we get to rebuild while he gets to redecorate.

IMAGINE THAT: There are leftwing wackos, too! Follow the link to the full article.

DISMANTLING AMERICA, PART IV: "Someone once said that a democratic society cannot survive for long after 51 percent of the people decide that they want to live off the other 49 percent. Yet that is the direction in which we are being pushed by those who are promoting envy under its more high-toned alias of ‘social justice’."

Read it all.

OF COURSE THEY'RE NOT VERY BRIGHT: they're edjumucated.

Ivy League.

I GENERALLY LIKE NEAL BOORTZ, but on the subject of smoking, he's just another bigoted jackass. The fact that Chantix works is just a never-mind, since smokers are obviously willpower-free, worthless, scum-of-the-earth who deserve to die.

Has he seen or heard the (FDA-approved) commercials for Viagra? Cialis? the sleeping pill Lunestra? the antidepressant Cymbalta?

And how much of my health insurance premiums were spent on buying him a new knee after he ran it into the ground?

DISMANTLING AMERICA, PART III: "[T]he most dangerous and most lasting damage that this administration has done to this nation has been in the international jungle, where it is alienating our long-time allies, dismantling our credibility by reneging on our commitments ... and -- above all -- doing nothing meaningful to stop the leading terror-sponsoring nation in the world, Iran, from getting nuclear weapons."

JUST WHEN YOU THINK THEY CAN'T SINK ANY LOWER: NAACP, Left-Leaning Media Groups Form Tea Party Tracking Site.

The Left has become completely unglued.

BACKING AWAY from climate change. From the comments, a very astute observation: "If we’re talking about science, then facts are determined by evidence, not by weighing the credentials of the experts on either side of the issue."

Which is why the debate will never end ... believers argue the credentials; skeptics argue the evidence.

A METAPHOR FOR LIBERALISM: Smart Fortwo proves it isn't (smart).

GEE, THANKS, MR. PRESIDENT. [S]eniors who rely on Medicare will replace Medicaid recipients at the bottom of the health care ladder as early as 2019, five years after the individual mandate kicks in.

I start Medicare in just over two months ....

NO CRISIS SHOULD EVER BE ALLOWED TO SLIP BY without calls for greater public expenditure of doubtful worth.

This is a perfect example of government "services" that must be cut from the budget.

NOVEMBER IS COMING: another sign pops up in the neighborhood.


Frank Wolf is our representative to Congress (VA-10), but I doubt he's responsible for the putting up the sign.

THE RACE CARD has maxed out. It seems there is a limit.

WHY WATCH HGTV? When I can watch the squirrel on my back porch use my mop to build his nest?


In the space of 4 hours, he came back for more at least three times.

DISMANTLING AMERICA, PART II: “This country has been changed in a ... profound way by corrupting its fundamental values. The Obama administration has begun bribing people with the promise of getting their medical care and other benefits paid for by other people, so long as those other people can be called ‘the rich’.... There was a time when most Americans would have resented the suggestion that they wanted someone else to pay their bills. But now, envy and resentment have been cultivated to the point where even people who contribute nothing to society feel that they have a right to a ‘fair share’ of what others have produced.”

HOW THE LEFT creates the Right it fears and despises.

Follow the link to Ross Douthat’s New York Times column; then note that “First America” (natch) is the progressive Left’s view of themselves and “Second America” is the progressive Left’s view of the Right.

Both stereotypes are wildly inconsistent with reality, but they do help explain why the Left holds the right in such contempt.

LOVE THE HEADLINE: Gun-wielding ecoterrorist calls for reduction in human population, gets wish.

OUCH!
