"Architects of Ruin" hints of why Obama disses medical malpractice caps

By: Mark Tapscott "In short, it wasn't "deregulation of the financial markets" or "out-of-control capitalism," as depicted by purveyors of the conventional wisdom, it was too much politically correct regulation mandating that lenders throw out common sense and decades of experience in order to make loans that were almost certain to go unpaid."

Liberal Lies About National Health Care, Part 5

by Ann Coulter "The way I remember it, Republicans swept Congress in 1994 not because Clinton failed to nationalize health care, but because he tried to nationalize health care. HillaryCare failed because most Americans didn't want it. (For more on this, see "ObamaCare.")"

Obama’s Dilemma

By Max Boot "...give McChrystal what he needs. If he does, he will undoubtedly suffer a short-term hit with public opinion, which has turned against the war.

More important, it will allow him to rescue a failing war effort that he himself has dubbed a “war of necessity.”"

IS NATIONAL SECURITY BACK ON YOUR MIND?

Boortz "Worried? Even a little? How far would you want our government to go in trying to get to the bottom of these threats ... and perhaps save lives? Would you care if we poured water on Zazi's head to make him THINK he was drowning, even though he would be in no danger? If not that, could we just deprive him of a little sleep to make him talk? Nope ... can't do those things. That would be torture. Besides, remember that the White House is now in charge of interrogations ... so maybe now you feel even a little bit safer! Right?"

A Devolving, Depressing, and Debased Debate

by Victor Davis Hanson "Jimmy Carter, at 84 no less, of course had his say. In blanket fashion, without qualification, he blasted opponents of Obama as racists. Projection? One of the reasons as a Democrat I did not vote for Carter ages ago in 1976 was his own racist past.
