NOTHING LIKE A FORD TRUCK.

I bought a new Ford F250 Tri-Flex Fuel Truck. Go figure, it runs on either hydrogen, gasoline, or E85. I returned to the dealer yesterday because I couldn't get the radio to work. The service technician explained that the radio was voice activated.

'Nelson,' the technician said to the radio. The radio replied, 'Ricky or Willie?' 'Willie!' he continued and 'On The Road Again' came from the speakers. Then he said, 'Ray Charles!', and in an instant 'Georgia On My Mind' replaced Willie Nelson.

I drove away happy, and for the next few days, Every time I'd say, 'Beethoven,' I'd get beautiful classical music, and if I said, 'Beatles,' I'd get one of their awesome songs.

Yesterday, some guy ran a red light and nearly creamed my new truck, but I swerved in time to avoid him. I yelled, 'Ass Hole!' Immediately the radio responded with

"Ladies and gentlemen, The President of The United States."

Damn, I love this truck.

And it was built by a company Obama didn't bail out.

THERE IS NO NEUTRALITY, no safe harbor from liberalism's moral vision.

OBAMA'S BUDGET: It's my money, America.

A DISTINCTION WITHOUT A DIFFERENCE: If you don't like green eggs and ham, you can have ham and green eggs.

CONSERVATIVES WIN on payroll tax cut. Only if they can hold the line on other tax increases.

POLLING DUELS: According to the Pew Research Center, 48 percent of Americans believe religious institutions should be given an exemption from federal mandates that force employers to pay for contraception, 44 percent say they should be required to pay like all other employers. A CBS News/New York Times poll shows that 61 percent of Americans believe religious employers should be required to cover contraception, only 32 percent said they shouldn’t.

Who do you believe?

ACCORDING TO A NEW UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS STUDY, Chicago is the most corrupt city in the country.

Who's the mayor of Chicago? Rahm Emmanuel. And which President started his political career in Chicago?

DR. OBAMA'S ECONOMY: "This patient may indeed be on the road to recovery, but Dr. Obama appears incapable of giving it what it may need most: a good leaving alone. Instead, he always seems to be running around rearranging the deck chairs on the U.S.S. Economy, whistling a happy tune as the band plays on."

Read it all.

TRIGGER THE VOTE.

GONE WITH THE WIND: Hurricanes could destroy the offshore wind farms the U.S. is planning to build in the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico. Surprise, surprise ....

IN BLUE OREGON? [T]he state House of Representatives blocked approval of Oregon's ObamaCare health insurance exchange.

REPUBLICANS send Valentine's Day cards to Obama and Democrats.

TAX-AND-SPEND BUDGET: A budget is a statement of priorities. Obama has made it clear what matters most to him.

THEY'RE NEARLY ALL DEMOCRATS: Nearly 2 million dead Americans are still on active voter registries.

NOT VERY PRACTICAL, but certainly a lot of fun.

REPUBLICAN MILLIONAIRES earn their money; Democrat millionaires ... well, read on.

THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION: The Buck Never Stops With Them. White House Chief of Staff Jack Lew on Sunday television:

On MTP: “Well, one of the things about the United States Senate that I don’t think the American people realize is that it takes 60 not 50 votes to pass something.

On CNN: “We also need to be honest. You can’t pass a budget in the Senate of the United States without 60 votes and you can’t get 60 votes without bipartisan support.”

That is simply false: “The budget resolution…requires only a majority vote to pass, and its consideration is one of the few actions that cannot be filibustered in the Senate.”

Confusion when it comes to the budget law is nothing new for this Administration. The President’s budget request tomorrow is already past the deadline set by the 1974 Congressional Budget Act, the latest in a lengthy string of violations of their legal obligations.

Has the White House bothered to ask their party’s leaders in the U.S. Senate the real reason they refuse to prioritize the American people’s tax dollars? Is it that they can’t admit to how much more they want to take from hardworking American families in order to fuel their spending appetite?

Not can't admit; won't admit.

TRUE LIES: the Obama budget.

JUST PEACHY: my tax money being spent to pay for an 'Occupy' protest in favor of raising my taxes.
