Morning Briefing
For November 5, 2013
Remember, if you live in Virginia, go vote for Ken Cuccinelli for
Governor today! Okay, and honest story about why you're getting the
Morning Briefing so late this morning. My wife asked me to clean the
kitchen last night since she cooked supper. I got up to the Briefing,
realized I had forgotten to clean the kitchen, so I did that and went
back to bed. A few hours later, here I am realizing there was something
else I was supposed to do before the sun went up. Sorry.
Now go vote for Ken.

1. ENDA, Moral Bankruptcy, and Failed Senate Leadership
Over the past few years of defacto Democrat supermajority control
of the Senate, we have pointed out that legislative battles are won or
lost long before the vote is cast. When
Democrats stay unified on an issue and relentlessly pick off Republican
votes for radical initiatives as GOP leaders remain silent, they will
win every time. Hence, that is why we need a voice, not just a vote to represent our concerns in Washington.
The Senate just voted 61-30 to proceed with the transgendered
special rights bill (ENDA), all but ensuring its final passage by the
end of the week. Seven
Republicans – Susan Collins, Dean Heller, Mark Kirk, Kelly Ayotte, Rob
Portman, Orrin Hatch, and Pat Toomey – voted for it. Mitch
McConnell and John Cornyn refused to speak out against this bill, even
though there are so many angles from which to assail it. They just stood back and allowed the Democrats to ravage the conference. There is no voice; no leadership; no inspiration. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
2. He Didn’t Lie, It’s Just That The Words He Used In The Order He Used Them Didn’t Tell A Truth Per Se
This weekend, in an article titled “Insurance Policies Not Worth
Keeping,” the New York Times gave Obama cover for his “you can keep your
insurance” claim, saying that he merely “misspoke,” and that besides,
the cancelled policies were no good but people were just too dumb to see
it, and thankfully Obama knows better than you and also isn’t he
dreamy. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
3. The Fifth Circuit Rules In Favor Of Women’s Health and Life
IOne of the most surreal factors in the Democrat talking point of
“War on Women” is their reflexive support for abortion in all of its
cruel and inhumane permutations.
Earlier in the year a ditzy Texas state senator became a national
cause celebre (see Abortion Rights Under Fire: Why Wendy Davis’
Filibuster Matters) when she undertook a filibuster of a Texas bill
that, in reaction to the Kermit Gosnell case (see Tom Ridge: Unindicted
Co-conspirator) made abortion practitioners at least pretend to be a
part of the medical profession. The bill ultimately passed in a special
session and was immediately appealed on two grounds by Planned
Parenthood. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
4. Obamacare Destroying Lives, Killing Businesses
Last week, we asked for your personal Obamacare horror stories,
as more and more middle class families are forced to surrender their
dignity and grovel before government for their health insurance. Here is the latest from Charles in Alabama. . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
5. The Strategy for Defending Obamacare: Misrepresentation and Diversion
Demonstrating for a fact that he does not read RedState, today
the Washington Post’s E. J. Dionne advocates the strategy I warned
against over the past couple of weeks and he also demonstrates why
debating with the delusional and dishonest is an exercise in futility.
In an op-ed titled The noise around Obamacare he outlines the problem
for the Democrat party and his solution . . . please click here for the rest of the post →
