LIBERAL LIES AND THE PRESIDENT WHO TELLS THEM Columnist Charles Krauthammer nails Obama on his false class warfare claims: "In Obama's telling, it's the refusal of the rich to 'pay their fair share' that jeopardizes Medicare. If millionaires don't pony up, schools will crumble. Oil-drilling tax breaks are costing teachers their jobs. Corporate loopholes will gut medical research. It's crude. It's Manichaean. And the Left loves it. As a matter of math and logic, however, it's ridiculous. "Obama's most coveted tax hike - an extra 3 to 4.6 percent for millionaires and billionaires (weirdly defined as individuals making over $200,000) - would have reduced last year's deficit from $1.29 trillion to $1.21 trillion. Nearly a rounding error. The oil-drilling breaks cover less than half a day's federal spending. You could collect Obama's favorite tax loophole - depreciation for corporate jets - for 100 years and it wouldn't cover one month of Medicare, whose insolvency is a function of increased longevity, expensive new technology, and wasteful defensive medicine caused by an insane malpractice system." Clearly Obama's hoping that if he tells these lies often enough, enough people will come to believe them and hand The Chosen One a second term. Fortunately, there are Krauthammers in the world to shine the light on the lies. A GREEN BAY PACKERS QUESTION (original author unknown) Last year.... After the Packers / Bills game, Buffalo released quarterback Trent Edwards. During the Packers / Eagles game, the Packers injured Philadelphia quarterback Kevin Kolb. Philadelphia then had to play backup quarterback Michael Vick. During a playoff game against the Eagles, the Packers injured Michael Vick and another backup was needed. After the Packers / Cowboys game, Dallas fired Wade Phillips and most of his staff. After the Packers / Vikings game, Minnesota fired Brad Childress and most of his staff. Four weeks after losing to the Packers, the 49er's coach Mike Singletary and most of his staff were fired and replaced. During the Bears Playoff game, the Packers injured Jay Cutler and backup Todd Collins forcing the Bears to go with 3rd string quarterback Caleb Hanie. Here's the question.... Is it just me, or did the Packers create more jobs last year than Obama? STOP GOVERNMENT REGULATION OF THE INTERNET! The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is trying to control the Internet through "Net Neutrality" regulations passed late last year. In order to allow future innovation and expansion of broadband Internet, this government takeover by regulatory fiat must be reversed. Americans for Tax Reform urges you to contact your legislators today and urge them to reverse the FCC's decision.

FAMOUS LAST WORDS "I say: Let them eat snow." - Jon Ralston on New Hampshire's ultimatum that Nevada either move its presidential caucus to January 17 or it'll hold its primary in December "It's no secret that Mr. Romney is one of the least popular GOP candidates among the Tea Party crowd. His waffling on issues like abortion and taxes, which reflect a candidate's personal and political values, has earned him their distrust. Then of course there's the universal health-care reform that he pioneered as governor of the Bay State and continues to defend, which doesn't sit well with many conservatives." - Allysia Finley of Political Diary "Dr. Paul embraces New Hampshire's special place in American politics. . . . But this talk of boycotts doesn't serve the electoral process any more than the states' jockeying for position and primacy. New Hampshire deserves its rightful place as the first primary in the nation, but we will fight to preserve that place without depriving Nevada or Iowa voters of their say in the 2012 nomination process." - Ron Paul presidential campaign announcing that it will not boycott Nevada's caucus as others have threatened to do, 10/13/11 "Barack Obama and his failed liberal policies must be challenged, and on the night that I accept the Republican nomination for President I will challenge President Obama to a series of 3-hour Lincoln-Douglas style debates. I will even allow him to bring his teleprompter with him! The American people deserve the kind of honest debate that is a pillar of American political discourse, and I will make sure that happens." - Newt Gingrich |
