When $814 Billion Just Isn’t Enough for a Guy saying, “The stimulus bill Congress passed in February 2009 was supposed to be spent predominantly on infrastructure rebuilding projects. At an address to AFL-CIO members at Laborfest in Milwaukee on Monday, President Barack Obama pushed an additional $50 billion-plus stimulus bill designed to fulfill the novel task of… rebuilding the country’s infrastructure.”

Dump Boehner: A No-Brainer saying, “During his speech last Wednesday in Cleveland, Obama did a nice little hit job on Boehner and his policies, claiming that Boehner had no new ideas and simply wanted to return to the Bush era. On Sunday, Boehner did something to actually deserve a hit job.”

O’Donnell vs. O’Donnell saying, “Once upon a time, there was a Tea Party candidate for Senate from Delaware who promised to reduce the size of government and adhere to constitutional limits on its power, and did not tell Bill Maher that when she was in high school she had friends who experimented with “witchcraft.”

Litigation Over Innovation

More Gun Crimes, Less Sanity About Gun Control saying, “Every time a gun crime happens in this country, the mainstream media give it sensationalistic coverage, and liberals cover their mouths with their hands like little girls only long enough to remove them and start howling about the necessity of even more gun control legislation than the historically high levels we have now.”

Bigotry In Between Every Line saying, “In a desperate, last-ditch attempt to salvage their miserable midterm election prospects, Democrats have been tarnishing Republicans and Tea Partiers with the smear of—wait for it… racism!”

Banksy Gets Bankrolled by “The Simpsons” saying, “Anonymous leftist hipster graffiti artist Banksy has made a name for himself painting agitprop scenes on walls and bridges throughout his native Bristol, London, and other international locations.”

Obama Misquoted: “I Looked Fierce on the Cover of The Advocate!” saying, “President Barack Obama demonstrated his pro-gay credentials last week by having Senior Adviser Valerie Jarrett renounce comments she had made that 15-year-old gay suicide victim Justin Aaberg had been bullied because of a “lifestyle choice” he had made.”

Israel to U.S.: “You Are the Weakest Link!” saying, “The list of countries that have provided tacit support to Israel for its imminent launch of preemptive missile attacks on Iran’s nuclear weapons facilities now includes: Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Kuwait, Turkey, Egypt, and… not-the-United-States.”

Does Inquisitor Schumer Clandestinely Loathe Open-Speech Elections?, saying, “Since the clever acronym for Democrats’ new election fund accountability scheme is DISCLOSE, perhaps they could disclose for the American people the true intention of the bill and the consequences it will have on free speech and political advocacy during election cycles.”

Conservatives: 4½ Justices Good Enough For Us!, saying, “President Obama called arguments against Supreme Court Justice nominee Elena Kagan’s confirmation “pretty thin gruel.” That’s funny—I call no judicial experience and scant, conflicting legal theorizing in print “a short stack of hotcakes.”

Obama to Gulf Tarballs: “We Are Not Amused”, saying, “It’s no coincidence that the Tea Party movement is springing up now, 235 years after the original Boston Tea Party. Barack Obama is the closest thing this country has had to royalty since King George III. And I don’t mean that in a good way.”

Health Care Rationing: A Love Story, saying, “What kind of benevolent dictator would declare his love for Britain’s stingy, depressing, complicated, cold and arbitrary National Health Service by describing it as “generous, hopeful, confident, joyous and just”?”

Obama Schedules Beer Summit With Ben Jealous and Andrew Breitbart, saying, “The NAACP was once a pioneer in spearheading crucial and controversial civil rights work, culminating in the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Since then, the NAACP has distinguished itself as a water carrier for every racist fringe element in society but the KKK.”

I Guess Tax Cuts Stimulate the Economy After All, saying, “Now that it’s become obvious to everyone except Paul Krugman that runaway government spending does not mystically create wealth, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke has been caught admitting to the House Financial Services Committee last Thursday, 18 months after the stimulus bill failed, “Extending the Bush tax cuts will strengthen the economy.””

Pelosi Lauds “Most Ethical Congress in Herstory”, saying, “In 2006 Congressional Democrats campaigned on the conceit that Republicans were corrupt up to their coke-filled noses and incapable of governing so much as a taco stand, and that the country was yearning for a breath of fresh air from the party that brought us Gary Condit, William Jefferson, Cynthia McKinney, Jim McGreevey, John Murtha, Eliot Spitzer, and Eric Massa.”

Approval of Kagan: Objection! saying, “Kagan is about the worst person to approve to our highest court.”

START Treaty Should Not Be Ratified saying, “This START Treaty is a farce and is not worthy of a Senate ratification.”

Izgad presents the following articles posted at Izgad,

Stanley Fish, Arizona and the Depoliticized Classroom saying, “I argue for the importance of a de-politicized classroom as a necessary ingredient of a peaceful societal discourse. At the same time, I see the necessity that a willingness to accept the legitimacy of the government and the Constitution as being likewise necessary and outside the issue of politics.”

De-Citizenship Trials in Practice: Tolerating Fred Phelps saying, “This post discusses the limits of free speech within the context of Fred Phelps of the Westboro Church.”

zxq9 presents the following article  posted at The Intellectual Wilderness,

The Intellectual Wilderness » Blog Archive » Largest Single American Policy Mistake I Have Witnessed saying, “Article is on a topic which is no longer at the boiling head of public discussion, but desperately needs to be examined in a non-emotional way. I explore the healthcare bill and some of its implications. I also reference an article about how populist effort in the interest of the “public good” forced me (and everyone else) to pull money out of my AIDSVax investment and collapse what could have been a major medical breakthrough. If this article is not quite what you are looking for I’ll just try you again later. Most of my writing is non-partisan and pragmatist, but that tends to stand in opposition to the current US and UK left.”

Aaron Dinsdale presents the following article posted at The Going Green Site!

The Incompatibility Of Going Green and Greed saying, “If there’s anything that the recent Gulf of Mexico oil disaster has taught me, it’s that many of the ideas and well founded goals of going green and becoming eco-friendly are simply out of reach for the world – at it’s current state of thinking. Pure simple economics are a testament to that fact. The world’s economic engine runs on greed at it’s core. Nations have been competing in this arena since the dawn of time, and now we’re finally facing the butcher’s bill. How?”

Does Saudi Arabia Allow Gays in the Military?, saying, “As the newly appointed Dean of Harvard Law School, Obama Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan decided, in the middle of the War on Terror, to cripple the Reserve Officer Training Corps’ recruitment capability on campus by denying it crucial access to funding, operating space, and assistance from the Office of Career Services.“

Requiem for a Flip-Flopper, saying, “In a final ironic development capping his dishonorable career, Arlen Specter discovered yesterday that his party switch was all for naught, and even harmful to his aspirations. Democrats will claim Sestak won the race because the country is clamoring for more socialism, but really it’s because Americans loathe political opportunists like Specter.“

Obama 2012: “Not the Barack You Knew in 2008!”l, saying, “President Obama’s strategy for helping fellow Democrats win in the 2010 midterm elections is apparently to campaign against George W. Bush. The growing preference among candidates of both parties who actually face voters this fall, however, seems to be to campaign against Barack Obama.“

Obama’s Three Mile Island, saying, “The Gulf oil spill isn’t Obama’s Katrina—it’s more like his Three Mile Island: a rare but inevitable accident, an unavoidable byproduct of an essential method of power production, an incident used by a far-left administration to phase out an entire category of energy production in the hopes of stomping out industrial civilization as we know it.“

Obama: There Since Cinco de Cuatro!

An Interview with GayPatriot Blogger B. Daniel Blatt, saying, “Conservative blogger B. Daniel Blatt of GayPatriot is on a cross-country trip and stopped in Charlottesville, Virginia, for an interview over breakfast.“

A Mad Tea Party, saying, “There is an undeniable “Alice in Wonderland” quality to Democratic spin on the meaning and nature of the Tea Party movement.“

Strategic Defaults: A Misnomer, saying, “De-bunking the morality argument regarding strategic defaults.“
 

The Homeowner’s Dilemma: To Amputate or To Suck-it-Up and Take One for the Team saying, “It’s probably about time homeowners who have decided to not walk away from their mortgages to man up to their decision and quit bellyaching about those who are walking away.”

Spirit of Compromise | Carl Creasman Spirit of Compromise| Live Well blog; life insights with values , saying, “This is actually the first of a series of 4 postings on Ben Franklin and his views expressed at the conclusion of the creation of the Constitution.”

What People Think about Obama’s Health Care Reform, saying, “When it comes to the health conditions of the people who are still able to survive living on this planet Earth, it is always a surefire that most people do care so much about their health conditions. People these days have become pretty aware of how important their health conditions may turn out to be.”
