RedState Briefing 06/21/2013

Morning Briefing
For June 21, 2013



1.  Corker-Hoeven: Schumer’s Wimp Brigade Rides to the Rescue
Imagine if Democrats elected senators from blue states in the northeast who worked behind closed doors with Ted Cruz to craft national right to work legislation or a compromise plan to privatize Social Security?  That’s about as likely as Lady Gaga joining the Family Research Council.

Yet, we continue to elect Republicans like John Hoeven who work behind the scenes to carry water for the progressives.  They gravitate to one-sided compromises that sell out our Republic like flies on ethanol.

By now, you’re probably asking, John who?  . . . please click here for the rest of the post 


2.  The Path Forward on the Farm Bill
GOP leadership suffered a stunning defeat as 62 Republicans voted against the 5-year farm bill (H.R. 1947), which locks in the record baseline of food stamp spending and creates multiple new agriculture subsidy programs.  A handful of them voted against it because it cut too much spending, and others like Bill Shuster voted no because they are facing potential primary challenges (Shuster voted for the 2008 bill).  But this is a strong showing, as it is a dynamic none of us would have ever predicted several years ago. . . . please click here for the rest of the post 

3.  ObamaCare suckers needed, inquire within
In the course of explaining why the White House is still spending huge amounts of time and money to convince Americans that ObamaCare doesn’t stink, even though we hate it more with every passing month, Time drops this little nugget of information . . . please click here for the rest of the post 

4.  Amazing Audio from @GRTL : “If All Aren’t Protected, None Are Protected.”
There is a rumor the folks at Georgia Right to Life reject Genesis 5 – 10 because Noah couldn’t save all the animals, only pairs.

Fox 5 Atlanta led their newscast last night with Georgia Right to Life joining pro-abortion groups to oppose pro-life legislation in Congress. I have been telling you that Georgia Right to Life’s position has descended to the insane position of letting all children die unless all can be saved.

Last night, Georgia Right to Life went on record to publicly embrace that characterization. You can see the video for yourself. . . . please click here for the rest of the post
