Health Overhaul Law Potentially Costs $115 Billion More

Of course it's going to cost more than we were originally told. When was the last time that the goverment cost actually came in at or below the estimate?

Alarm Over Stimulus Spending Waste and Fraud

Alarm Over Stimulus Spending Waste and Fraud...what do you expect from the same government that still adds "pork" to most bills?

Obama Donor Gets 'Sweetheart' Contract

Obama urges pared-back health care bill

Obama urges pared-back health care bill....I have one question....Is he being serious or is this just something he is saying in public but in private is he saying force it down America's throat?

After Mass. loss, Dems dig in on health bill

After Mass. loss, Dems dig in on health bill..do we need health care reform....yes......but if that is going to occur because of the politicians in DC they need to reform Medicare/Medicaid. This is something that needs to be fixed now. Instead of tackling the BIG problem why don't they tackle something smaller that they have "control" over now.

Democrats point fingers after stunning Senate race loss

Democrats point fingers after stunning Senate race loss...to me you can point fingers all you want but I take this race as an indication that just because a seat is held by a given party and has been for years doesn't mean if you are running for that party that you are a shoo in.

What is wrong in politics can be boilded down to one thing....the voters need to be listened to at all times, if you say that if elected you are going to do x, y, and z you better do x, y, and z. You have been elected to represent THE PEOPLE of your district not the political action committee, your pal across the aisle or your fellow party members.

It is time for ALL politicians to become aware of this fact.

Analysis: Win a game-changer

Analysis: Win a game-changer...all politicians can learn from this.....LISTEN to the people who ELECT you, they can just as easily not elect YOU but someone else when you run next time.

House Dems: No on Senate health bill

House Dems: No on Senate health bill - the Senate version passed how long ago and to quote the article

"Blue Dog Democrat Rep. Baron Hill of Indiana said the idea of passing the Senate bill is "the talk of the town."
Hill said he still needs to look at details of Senate bill but is open to taking it up, saying "if that's the only option in town then maybe that's what we ought to do."

I can see what is wrong....no one is doing their job....shouldn't Hill have already looked into the details?

One Year Later: Reviewing Obama's Promises

One Year Later: Reviewing Obama's Promises and why is there not bipartisanship in the government? Because the democrats have pretty much said either you go along with our plans or we will force them down your throat since we have the votes to do it. I was brought up to believe that the government was FOR the people, the senators and reps seem to believe that the government is for THEM to act out their whims.

Obama to seek $1.35 billion more for education

Obama to seek $1.35 billion more for education...and where is he going to get the money from....oh yeah...raise taxes.

Dems look at bypassing Senate health care vote

Dems look at bypassing Senate health care vote - if a Republican wins in Mass. that is a sign that the people are fed up with the politics in DC and don't want the current version of Health Care reform but the Democrats won't take it that way they will only think about "Their" priorities and pass the reform and doom us all.

Kennedy's widow, Obama boost Mass. Dem

Kennedy's widow, Obama boost Mass. Dem...just like a predicted yesterday...Obama and the Dems have no choice if they want to ruin the country.

Will he learn?

Will he learn?...the short answer is no.....He was not smart enough to know that you don't play jokes with weapons..he thought it would be funny...haha.

China Defends Censorship After Google Threat

China Defends Censorship After Google Threat..."But Minister Wang Chen of China's State Council Information Office said Internet companies should help the one-party government steer the fast-changing society, which now has 360 million Internet users, more than any other country." Is this code for only allow our citizens to see what we want them to see?

Republican Candidate Warns Obama to 'Stay Away'From Massachusetts Senate Race

Republican Candidate Warns Obama to 'Stay Away' From Massachusetts Senate Race just watch Obama and other Democrats will get involved...they have to in order to keep their super majority alive. Without the majority they know that they won't be able to force the legislation through and down our throats.

Google eases censorship in China

Google eases censorship in China. Google should never have agreed to censor anything in China. Once you start down that road where do you stop?

Meet Mikey, 8: U.S. has him on watch list

Meet Mikey, 8: U.S. has him on watch list .. I don't get it....his father has the same name and was stopped for the first time on the trip to the Bahamas? Either TSA is falling down and only checking one of them or the entire story is bogus.

White House changes stimulus job accounting.....Obama Math?

White House: Stimulus has saved 2 million jobs

White House: Stimulus has saved 2 million jobs...I would like to see the hard numbers proving this.

Obama set to announce new bank fees

Obama set to announce new bank fees...this is one way to tax us....Tax the banks knowing that they will pass it on to us.

Google may quit China following cyber-attacks

Google may quit China following cyber-attacks and what did Google expect for China...that they would be more open? If they believe that I have a great app that they can buy from me that will generate them billions a year.

Reid's Racial Remark: Some Truth to It?

Reid's Racial Remark: Some Truth to It? - I think that the way Reid apoligized is very interesting to quote him "I've apologized to the president, I've apologized to everyone that [can hear] the sound of my voice, I could have used a better choice of words,"

He never said that he should not have said what he did just use better words....is that an apology?

More time for sex offenders legal?

More time for sex offenders legal? As far as I am concerned you should have no rights once you are convicted of any felony. How about if we give these individuals a choice.....more time or castration.

Obama may look at bank fees to rein in deficit

Obama may look at bank fees to rein in deficit and any fee that the bank has to pay will be passed on to us. So either way we are going to pay for this.

Newsweek: Roots of the divide over light, dark skin

Newsweek: Roots of the divide over light, dark skin -- what about the divide the democrats make with their double standards....If a Republican or Independent had made that same comment they would have been sanctioned in the Senate but since it was a democrat they let it slide.

Sharpton: 'Coffee' Remark About Obama 'Disturbing'

Sharpton: 'Coffee' Remark About Obama 'Disturbing' - there is a lot that you can read into Clinton's "Coffee" remark and it may or may not be "Disturbing"...what is DISTURBING is that the Democrats and their backers what to give Reid a pass for his RACIST comment.....They need to come down from their Ivory Tower and stop the Double Standard.

I still believe until I am proven wrong that the only reason Reid is getting a pass is because his vote is required to pass the Health Care Reform and no other reason.

White House says Obama not offended by Reid remarks

White House says Obama not offended by Reid remarks---why should he be....he knows he needs Reid's voted.

Racial Double Standard?

Racial Double Standard?...if there is one thing the Democrats are good a it is having a Double Standard....they know that they need ever vote that they can lay their hands on to pass Healtch Care reform.....Reid could have used a different 'N' word and he would still not be asked to step down because Obama and the Democrats need him and he knows it.

There should be one standard....if this is the standard than Democrats and African-Americans better watch what they say and do.

Bonus Backlash: Wall St. Defends Payouts

Bonus Backlash: Wall St. Defends Payouts..there is no defense that they can come up with to defend these large payouts. Instead of paying the top people in the company ungodly bonuses how about paying the line workers a little bit more since they are the ones who interact/affect the customer more.

More Toxic Toys? Cadmium in Trinkets From China

More Toxic Toys? Cadmium in Trinkets From China ....why do I get the impression that the Chinese manufacturers said....Well they don't like lead....How about if we use something that is even MORE dangerous....

Now tell me why have products made outside the US is a good thing?

UAE sheikh acquitted in taped beating

UAE sheikh acquitted in taped beating..what a suprise to me....a member of the ruling family is acquitted.....I'm surprised though that it even went to trial.

GOP: Reid should pay for Obama comment

GOP: Reid should pay for Obama comment---what is more racist Rep Joe Wilson yelling Obama is a Liar Or Sen Harry Reid describing Obama during the 2008 presidential campaign as a "light-skinned" African-American "with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one."...

Wilson was punished for his comment which may or may not be racist but Reid's comment certainly is racist and he is going to be able to just apologize for it....Guess Wilson was in the wrong party.

Scientology Claims Lost Hubbard Works Restored

Scientology Claims Lost Hubbard Works Restored...is Scientology really a religion or is it a cult? In my mind it is a cult.

HEALTH CARE COUNTDOWN: Bye Public Option?

HEALTH CARE COUNTDOWN: Bye Public Option? I hope so.

Student Brings Loaded Gun onto High School Campus

Student Brings Loaded Gun onto High School Campus..he brings a weapon to school DOES NOT point it at anyone and he gets arrested....An NBA player points a weapon at someone and is not arrested yet? Whatever happened to equal protection?

And don't give me that the weapon the NBA player had was not loaded....every weapon needs to be treated as if it is loaded....if a weapon is pointed at me that person better be pulling the trigger because he will have at least 2 shots coming his way. The only exception I will ever make is for law enforcement.

'The Buck Stops With Me': Obama Details Systemic Failure

'The Buck Stops With Me': Obama Details Systemic Failure he's saying this now but when something occurs again I seriously doubt he will take the blame....someone else will fall of the sword to save him.

Athletes and Guns: Why So Hand in Hand?

Athletes and Guns: Why So Hand in Hand? Athletes are not above the law they need to be treated like the rest of us. To me it is very simple, what would occur if I pulled a gun on someone. Most likely I would go to jail...the same thing needs to occur with anyone else regardless of who they are.

AIG fiasco keeps getting worse

AIG fiasco keeps getting worse and what was Geithner doing while all this was going on? Was he telling people to hide everything and not?

Opinion: Blame the NBA

Opinion: Blame the NBA...it's one thing to be quirky and for the NBA to play that up, it's part of the show but bringing weapons into a facility, loaded or unloaded, is a violation of not only NBA policy but probably local law....Did he have a permit to carry? I may be mistaken but I believe that the arena is in DC which has a very strict policy on weapons. Pointing any weapon at someone is not being quirky it is criminal.

Arenas’ guns not loaded, but Crittenton’s was

Arenas’ guns not loaded, but Crittenton’s was...It doens't matter....any weapon has to be treated as if it were loaded. Both of these players should be barred by the NBA from ever playing again and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Their actions tell me that they have a gang mentality....always have a weapon and use it ever chance you get.

Japanese whaling boat clash likely to ignite row over activists' tactics

Japanese whaling boat clash likely to ignite row over activists' tactics, while I don't agree with what the japanese are doing it does appear as though the anti-whaling vessel is under power and moving forward are the time of the collision....not stationary as they say.

White House on defensive on health care

White House on defensive on health care...what a surprise....once again the president is doing what he said he would NOT do while running for president. From what I remember he wanted the government to be transparent....guess what he meant is that the transparency would be that the people would not be able to see what is going on.

So much for both parties working together for the better of the US. The "Great" Obama has spoken.

Former bin Laden bodyguard is among ex-guerrillas in Yemen

Former bin Laden bodyguard is among ex-guerrillas in Yemen...to use his logic I would think that make everyone in a country that supports terrorism a legit target. I was under the impression that Islam was one of the more forgiving religions. Extremists like this guy give EVERY religion a bad name.

More people have been killed in the name of religion that all the wars put together.

Where's the Transparency?

Where's the Transparency?...since the Decmocrats know that the majority of americans don't want their version of Health Reform they have to go behind closed doors. If the Republicans were still the majority and they tried to pull this stunt the Democrats would be raising hell. Nice to see how things are chaning in DC since the great Obama has been elected.

Whale Wars Heat Up

Whale Wars Heat Up....I thought that whale hunting was illegal? I know that the Japanese say that they are doing whale research but we all know that they are not. It is time that the nations of the world unite and put a stop to this "research".

Multiple Names Keep Joan Rivers Off Flight

Multiple Names Keep Joan Rivers Off Flight....just because someone is carrying a passport who says that they are Joan Rivers and they appear to look like that person (yes I know it really is her) does not mean that it really is. The person checking ID's had concerns and therefore did not let her go. This person should be applauded for sticking by their decision and not caving into the pressure that I'm sure that she was placing on them.

In case people don't know there is something called cosmetic surgery (which Joan Rivers knows ALL about) that can enable a person to look like someone else. Because of this I feel that if someone has concerns when checking ID's at an airport that they should error on the side of safety.

G-Spot is Real, Argue Loveologists

G-Spot is Real, Argue Loveologists - why is it that you can add ologist after a word to make something sound so scientific when in fact it is just a just plain stupid...what's next Obamaologist/Democraticologist?

G-Spot is Real, Argue Loveologists

G-Spot is Real, Argue Loveologists...I see a government grant in their future for them to be able to prove this......I hope not.

ANOTHER DEM BITES THE DUST: Dodd Out as Exodus Continues

ANOTHER DEM BITES THE DUST: Dodd Out as Exodus Continues...shouldn't the title be Another IDIOT bites the dust?

Obama: Airline attack was preventable

Obama: Airline attack was preventable.....Should the terrorists name have been on the No-Fly list...yes but why is it that everybody is forgetting to remember that the flight DID NOT originate in the US. To me it looks like we are not the only ones to blame...how about the
"security", and I use that word lightly, in the two airports that allowed explosives onto planes?

Hat in hand, U.S. turns to India to create jobs

Hat in hand, U.S. turns to India to create jobs...why not....for years jobs from US companies have be going to India....it's about time that jobs for Indian companies started to come here.

At Airports, Security Changes Gradually

At Airports, Security Changes Gradually...what a choice....a body scan that may or may not show your groin and breasts or allow a terrorist onto a plane with a gun/knive/bomb.....let me think which one I would opt for..


I know...the body scan.

NBA player calls gun incident 'mistake'

NBA player calls gun incident 'mistake'. The only mistake is the fact that he is still being paid by the Wizards. I was taught that the only time to point a weapon at someone is if you are placed in a position where you need to protect your life......not to play a joke..... He needs to be sent to prison for a very long time.....Jokes and Guns do not mix.

Octuplet doc accused of negligence, They should have started this a LONG time ago.

Dems, Wall Street water down financial reform

Dems, Wall Street water down financial reform - don't the democrats always accuse the republicans of being pro business while they are for the people....doesn't look that way to me.

Dems to bypass tradition on final health deal

Dems to bypass tradition on final health deal - of course they will. It's the only way that they will be able to force this down our throat. They need to be shown the door when they come up for re-election again.
