The reason the battle in Wisconsin is so bitter is that the Wisconsin Republicans are doing what Reagan attempted to do and failed to do: Defund the left. Previously schools were required to buy health insurance through the teachers union. Being free to shop around for health insurance appears to save over half a million dollars per school The dissenting opinion, The Stratasphere, Public School Spending That is over a …

Entryism goes public
The SEIU is a far left organization, far far further to the left than any elected Democrat will admit to being.  It is the voice of the state organized as political interest group. It has always been a major force backing “moderate†Republicans.
Death panels
No, Obama is not setting up death panels. He is just creating rules that hospitals can only comply with if they quietly and unofficially have death panels for medicare patients. If a hospital discharges a patient who lingers on for years sucking up lots of expensive services outside the hospital, the hospital is penalized. If, however, the potentially expensive patient should conveniently croak while in hospital … In a number …
Governor Romneycare promises to be a better Obama
Governor Romneycare is campaigning to be the Republican presidential candidate. He tells us that: Every turnaround has three rules. Focus, focus, focus. Focus on what’s most important, devote all your energy to that which is broken. … Instead of focusing his energy on the economy he delegated the stimulus to Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, and they built a stimulus which grew government jobs but didn’t grow private-sector jobs. And …
Obama’s Birth Certificate Forged
What Obama released is a composite photoshopped together from multiple documents. Archive Index Systems spots undeniable photoshop artifacts in the released birth certificate. The background text, from one certificate, is slightly curved, which is what you get if you scan some paper that is not perfectly flat – the document was scanned from a book, so near the book binding did not lie perfectly flat. The name of the hospital …
Herman Cain
The rest of the republican field is now acting as if Herman Cain is the man to beat, acting as if he is now the front runner for Republican candidate and president, which makes him the front runner for the moment, though it is a long way to go to the 2012 presidential elections. I suspect this may be charisma envy. Obama has a lot of charisma, so Republicans are …
Conservative bloggers declare victory
According to Strata and others, the outcome of the budget negotiations (to reduce by one percent spending that was recently increased by by thirty percent) was a mighty victory. By a vote of approximately ten to one, the US House of Representatives voted to continue at slightly lower speed on a course that leads to bankruptcy, hyperinflation, social collapse, and, if we are lucky, civil war in the next decade …
“Deep Cutsâ€
Harry Reid, leader of the RepublicanDemocratic party in the Senate, attacks the Republican party because some far right extremists want to make “deep cuts†in government spending Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) accused Tea Party lawmakers of destroying budget negotiations “We’ve tried to wait patiently for them … but our patience and the American people’s patience is wearing very thin,” “Tea Party Republicans are scrapping all the progress we …
Mainstream media backs Romneycare for GOP presidential candidate
Supposedly Romney, the creator of Romneycare, the medical system that inspired Obamacare, is the GOP’s best hope for defeating Obama. So the mainstream media unanimously tells us. Probably true, but there seems little point to such a “victoryâ€. At CPAC, Presidential Candidate Romneycare upbraids Obama for high unemployment, and all the press, the same press that worships Obama, the same press that goes weak at the knees at the sight …
Who called the financial crisis before it happened?
Among others, Ron Paul, in his speech to the house, proposing amendments to the laws that caused the crisis … the government’s policy of diverting capital into housing creates a short-term boom in housing. Like all artificially created bubbles, the boom in housing prices cannot last forever. When housing prices fall, homeowners will experience difficulty as their equity is wiped out. Furthermore, the holders of the mortgage debt will also …
