REIN IN THE EPA - STOP OBAMA'S EFFORT TO 'BACKDOOR' CAP AND TRADE!
OBAMA'S PHONY USE OF EPA
The Senate will vote NEXT WEEK on stopping the EPA's global warming power grab. Click here to tell them to VOTE YES on the McConnell Amendment.
President Obama's cap-and-trade energy tax – designed, according to Obama himself, to make electricity prices "necessarily skyrocket" – went down in flames in the Senate last year and was emphatically buried in the midterm elections. Unfortunately, the day after the election, Obama said: "Cap and trade was just one way of skinning the cat; it was not the only way. It was a means, not an end."
Obama's budget for the EPA showed what he meant: "The Administration continues to support greenhouse gas emissions reductions in the United States in the range of 17 percent below 2005 levels by 2020 and 83 percent by 2050."

Ariz. Voters Persuade Flake (running for Senate) To Turn Against Amnesty -- At Least For Now
Much to the misery of the open-borders lobby, Arizona voters have transformed yet another pro-amnesty champion into a secure-borders-only candidate. Rep. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) stunned his national pro-amnesty allies today in an Arizona Republic interview by saying that he has changed his mind about wanting "comprehensive immigration reform."
After just a few weeks as an announced candidate to replace Sen. Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) when he retires next year, Flake found that being the best known pro-amnesty Republican in the U.S. House of Representatives was going to be a problem with Arizona voters.
He apparently decided that John McCain would be his model instead of Chris Cannon (more on that below).

The Weiner Waiver Wormhole
The Weiner Waiver Wormhole
03/25/2011
New York Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner toasted the one-year anniversary of Obamacare this week -- and accidentally spilled his champagne glass all over the disastrous, one-size-fits-all mandate. Ostensibly one of the federal health care law's staunchest defenders, Weiner exposed its ultimate folly by pushing for a special cost-saving regulatory exemption for New York City.
If it's good for the city Weiner wants to be mayor of, why not for each and every individual American and American business that wants to be free of Obamacare's shackles?
Weiner joins a bevy of the "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act's" loudest cheerleaders -- unions, foundations and left-leaning corporations -- in clamoring for more waivers for favors. (The list of federal waiver recipients now tops 1,000, covering more than 2.6 million workers.) And he follows a gaggle of health care takeover-promoting Democrats maneuvering on Capitol Hill for get-out-of-Obamacare loopholes.

Birthing Centers for Chinese Women Looking to Have American Babies Uncovered in California
Published March 25, 2011
| FoxNews.com
Authorities in California are investigating a crop of illegally converted maternity centers for Chinese women who come to the U.S. to give birth to American citizens, the Los Angeles Times reports.
The unlicensed birthing centers were recently discovered on a quiet residential neighborhood in San Gabriel, less than 10 miles from Los Angeles, according to the newspaper.
Code enforcement officials on March 8 reportedly shut down the three adjoining two-story condominiums that they say were converted into maternity wards. Ten mothers and seven newborns were reportedly found inside the buildings, the newspaper reports.
On Thursday, a state lawmaker blasted the illegal maternity wards and said the finding underscores the need for immigration law changes, Reuters reports.

OBAMA'S PETS PAY NO TAXES!
G.E.’s Strategies Let It Avoid Taxes Altogether
The company reported worldwide profits of $14.2 billion, and said $5.1 billion of the total came from its operations in the United States.
Its American tax bill? None. In fact, G.E. claimed a tax benefit of $3.2 billion.
That may be hard to fathom for the millions of American business owners and households now preparing their own returns, but low taxes are nothing new for G.E. The company has been cutting the percentage of its American profits paid to the Internal Revenue Service for years, resulting in a far lower rate than at most multinational companies.

War: Obama's fatal attraction
Excerpt: Instead, we elected Barack Obama, who firmly rejected military action for purely humanitarian reasons. In his 2002 speech opposing the Iraq war, Obama insisted that though Saddam Hussein "butchers his own people to secure his own power," the war was unjustified. Hussein, he pointed out, "poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States, or to his neighbors" and "can be contained until, in the way of all petty dictators, he falls away into the dustbin of history." In 2008, we saw debates between Obama and his rival contenders. Now we are seeing a debate between Obama the Candidate and Obama the President.
NATO to take over no-fly zone
Excerpt: NATO countries have agreed to take over enforcement of the no-fly zone above Libya, U.S. and NATO officials said Thursday. (And the Military Commander of NATO is…Supreme Allied Commander Europe, Admiral James G. Stavridis, United States Navy. NATO has had the command in Afghanistan for a long time, but that hasn’t seemed to lessen the US role or reduce the time of the “kinetic military action” there. Of course, that Cowboy Bush” got approval of the US Congress before going into Iraq and Afghanistan. How quaint. ~Bob.)
As a military superpower, the US is finding it hard to pass off lead role on Libya to others
Excerpt: For decades, the United States has been the go-to power for other Western nations for leading international military endeavors. Now it is struggling to shed that image as it tries to dial back its role in confronting Libya, but it’s been a rocky path. Each passing day is drawing the Pentagon deeper and deeper into the ground battle in Libya against the forces of Col. Moammar Gadhafi. This was driven home when NATO agreed late Thursday to take over just part of the military operations against Libya — enforcement of the newly established no-fly zone, following days of discord and hard bargaining among its members.

Oklahoma City Bombing -- the return of "the third terrorist"But will he get away again?

So it's really no big deal when a guy is arrested for slugging another guy with a beer bottle, right? In this case, wrong! Police in Quincy, Massachusetts (a part of the Boston metro area), earlier this month jailed a beer bottle brawler who turns out to be a credibly accused terrorist - on the lam for the last eight years. This revives the case of what arguably is the biggest cover-up in our nation's history.

LACK OF LEADERSHIP in BORDER SECURITY - NO OPEN BORDERS WANTED
Vicente Fox: Obama’s Approach a Failure
Former Mexican President Vicente Fox says Mexico is in a vicious civil war with drug cartels, and sharply criticized the Obama administration for its failure to grapple with the deteriorating situation in Mexico.
Fox also adds that President Obama is “thoroughly mixed up” in Afghanistan and Libya and is “not showing the leadership and capacity to attend different issues at the same time.”
Fox claimed that Mexico’s drug war has already killed 35,000 to 40,000 members of cartels, the police force or the army – not including Mexican citizens caught in the crossfire of out of control cartels.
The former President of Mexico places some of the blame for the Mexican drug war on the high demand for illegal narcotics and other drugs in the U.S. which has build a very profitable market for the criminal and violent Mexican cartels.
DEMOCRATS FLATLY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE INDISPUTABLE TRUTH!
| The Top 10 Failures of ObamaCare (This Year) By Emily Miller, Human Events |
| President Obama signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act into law on March 23, 2010. In just the year since, the law known as ObamaCare has already severely crippled the nation’s economy and health care system. Despite Obama’s continued pride in his signature health care legislation, a new CNN poll shows that 58% of Americans disapprove of the way Obama is handling health care. The Republican House passed a repeal of ObamaCare in January, but the bill was blocked by the Democrat-controlled Senate. Four House committees are now drafting a replacement bill for ObamaCare. The House also passed legislation defunding ObamaCare in March, which was likewise blocked by the Senate Democrats. Republican leaders are committed, however, and say that they will be defunding the health care law through the appropriations process this year. These are the top 10 failures of ObamaCare, starting with those that have had the most serious effect already on the economy, jobs, and the American people.... |

AGAIN I SAY, "STRIKE WHILE THE IRON IS HOT!"
| The GOP's Political Salvation: Impeachment? By Ben Johnson, FloydReports.com |
| So far, the first person to seriously raise the issue of impeaching Barack Obama over his illegal, unconstitutional war in Libya is Dennis Kucinich. That means the man whose ideas may do the most to unite the Republican Party is a Democrat. To be clear, impeachment is a constitutional remedy for a president intent upon violating its strictures. Unfortunately, it is also a political act, which means politicians must feel they have sufficient support before undertaking it. Many authorities have stated the Libyan intervention rises to the level of an impeachable offense. However, it might simultaneously be the perfect storm necessary to pluck Obama out of office, splinter the Democratic coalition, or weld Republicans together. Months into the new Republican Congress, the GOP Establishment worries it will not be able to corral the Tea Party. Despite pseudoconservative attempts to order Tea Party members around and establishment promises to “co-opt them,” this citizens’ uprising induces fear and loathing in the political class on both sides of the aisle. To mollify their constituents, Congressional Republicans have tried to prove they are serious about the Constitution and cutting the deficit. They have passed bills requiring members to cite specific constitutional authorization. To date, the Beltway Republicans’ miniscule budget cuts not satisfied the disaffected populist movement. What might work? Impeachment.... |
