Good Thing Ed Hochuli Wasn't Working This Game

On "reforming" health care, The Man On The Way Up reminds me of Bill Polian, who got rules changed after 2003 so his Indianapolis Colts would not get beaten up the way they did by the Patriots in the playoffs. Barack has gone about trying to manipulate the refs so his health care scam can be pulled. Scott Brown's election win was just the first blow of the collapse of Obamacare.

Believe It When We See It

It is said The Man On The Way Up is starting to shift rightward. I'll believe it when I see it - and with a major fight over tax increases coming, Obama's shift has to be much greater than it presently shows to be believed.

Chutzpah, Thy Name Is Barack

When does The Man On The Way Up lie? When he opens his mouth. The Cornhusker kickback is the latest example.

Pleasant Valley Sunday

An interesting and overlooked take on the Scott Brown victory is provided in this look at Obama's war against suburbia. It is doubly interesting given how suburbia is portrayed in culture - notable of recent with the success of Desperate Housewives and also in song, among groups from SheDaisy and their spoof of Desperate Housewives to The Monkees and their take on a Goffin-King classic.

A Micky-Mike-Peter-Kristyn-Kelsi-Kassidy harmony - that would be something to hear.

The war against suburbia is not new and it will continue given the inexplicable jealousy that comes of it.

Krauthammer's Silver Hammer

Charles Krauthammer has been among the sharpest observors of the national and international scene over 25 years, and the 25th anniversary of his first published column arrived recently. His silver hammer gets a nice set of linkages here.

The Fort Hood Terrorist

The Fort Hood terrorist, Nidal Malik Hasan, had been investigated by the FBI years ago but they apparantly dropped the ball on him. Now, with more digging into his past, we're learning things about him that are frightening as well as finding the mistakes made by the FBI in its investigation of him. Those mistakes might be being made again as the FBI is in the early stages of looking into the shooting but looks ready to dismiss Hasan's ties to an Al Qaida terrorist recruiter named Anwar al Awlaki, and if the FBI can't figure out Hasan's motive, maybe they should start here. And as if that isn't enough, the ideology of "diversity" in the Army has been exposed as a disaster yet the Army's Chief of Staff won't acknowledge the failure of "diversity."

Rolling Stone Needs To Shut Up

Rolling Stone has long established that they have no credibility to covering the real world, and with the worthless quality of modern rock music the magazine's reason for existence to begin with is worth questioning. Yet the magazine keeps lying to its readers about the real world and its belligerent ignorance of military matters shows again with its hideous piece on military skepticism of Barack Obama's Afghanistan stupidity that noentheless reveals quite a bit about The Man On The Way Up's greater stupidity based on jealousy of another man's (General David Petraeus) popularity.

Rolling Stone does not have the right to cover issues about which it is dishonest - and war reporting is the magazine at its most dishonest.

Meanwhile, Trade Boosts The Economy

While The Man On The Way Up's stimulus keeps failing and his inability to lead against America's enemies becomes more obvious, GDP grew to everyone's surprise, and it came because of trade. File that revelation under the "Duh" column.

The Obama Stimulus Failure

The Man On The Way Up wanted nearly $800 billion for a stimulus package. The results, as anyone with some competent understanding of economics (which Obama does not have) knew, are of a failure.
