GOVERNMENT OUTRAGE
Neal Boortz "We don't always have time to talk about these, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't know about them! Hope you enjoy this new feature." Here's what's on Boortz's first list:
DEMOCRATS AND THEIR 'JOBS' BILL
Neal Boortz "So ... along comes this ill-prepared community organizer/president who tells you that he will give you a $5000 tax credit if you will just hire someone to work in your business. Trouble is, (1) you don't need an additional worker right now because your business isn't growing; and (2) if you do hire an additional worker it is going to cost you at least $50,000 when you consider salary, matching Social Security "contributions", unemployment insurance, workers comp and other expenses. "
The Great Peasant Revolt of 2010
Charles Krauthammer "This being a democracy, don’t the Democrats see that clinging to this agenda will march them over a cliff? Don’t they understand Massachusetts? Well, they understand it through a prism of two cherished axioms: (1) The people are stupid, and (2) Republicans are bad. Result? The dim, led by the malicious, vote incorrectly."
Holder on Holder
Andrew C. McCarthy, NRO "Holder contends that the policies and practices used in Abdulmutallab’s case “were not criticized when employed by previous administrations.” That’s not true. Many people disagreed vigorously with, for example, President Bush’s decision to treat Zacarias Moussaoui as an ordinary civilian defendant. Later events have validated that critique. Indeed, the whole reason for fighting the conflict militarily after 9/11 ...was the patent ineffectiveness of relying upon law-enforcement policies and practices to protect the nation from an enemy who is not committing crimes but making war."
Sports Heroes and Conservatism
Bruce Walker, AT "In all of television today -- which has entertainment programs with the villains and victims so clearly scripted based upon gender, race, faith, and other factors -- there are few surprises. In television news, the same tired, recycled propaganda is played over and over, and virtually nothing actually new or exciting ever reaches our ears. Schools teach the same boring mush of politically correct lies and rhetoric dressed up as knowledge. Everywhere one looks, dull sameness reigns unchallenged. Everywhere, that same blandness rules -- except in sports."
The Big Fool Says to Push On
Jeff Durstewitz, PJM "What’s the relevance to today? Well, Pete Seeger’s still around, bless his progressive soul, even if there’s no network host who would even consider asking him to come on to help torpedo “The One” (not that he’d ever do it). But with the evidence of President Obama’s disastrous mistakes piling up all around us, why not?"
Thank You, Glenn Beck, for Exposing Communism’s Evils, by Jamie Glazov
Pajamas Media "In America, most of the intellectuals who surrounded us scoffed at the importance of real intellectual freedom and dismissed my parents’ experience; they demonized their own society, wished for its defeat, and supported the communist enemy that muzzled free speech and tortured millions of human beings." Did you see the Soviet flag waving at the pro-Obama rally?
Indoctrination Disguised as Education Reform
Pajamas Media "In a world where Democrats control the presidency and Congress, few have bothered to investigate how this will affect American schools. According to Sekou Biddle, a former project manager for TFA, “we are now seeing the top policymakers all very aligned on a very progressive reform agenda. So we’ve got a much more progressive board than we’ve ever had.” It should come as no surprise that Democrats are poised to infiltrate leftist propaganda into our school system. What is surprising is how easily so many state governments are willing to sell out their children’s futures." Leave our kids alone!
Sorry Blanche, You’re Toast
Jennifer Rubin "The first was the ease with which he cast Lincoln’s plea for a bit more centrism as a call for a return to Bushism — the “exact same proposals that were in place for the last eight years.” That’s not what she was advocating. … The president set up this strawman, and he pummeled it, rather than engaging Lincoln’s valid concerns. The second striking thing was how easily he appeared to write off Lincoln politically. Conceding nothing, he implied that her defeat was not only a foregone conclusion, but also an acceptable price to pay for staying the course on policy."
TelePrompter lets Commander-in-Chief Down as He Misprounces ‘Corpsman,’ Mangles French
Big Journalism "Surely, the White House has someone on the staff who can teach the President how to pronounce the word “corpsman.” It would also be great if someone in media knew what a corpsman is, but the Harvard-educated press’s knowledge of anything having to do with the military is limited to the phrases ”baby killers” and “exit strategy,” so there’s probably not much hope there."
Elections have consequences.
Neal Boortz "So come on, folks, can you see any reason why the Democrats would NOT want to make it difficult to investigate this guy and his department? The department run by the chief law enforcement officer of the United States cannot now be investigated by its own inspector general. "
Obama to get deficit commission with or without Republican help, Hoyer says
WaPo via Heritage "Republicans have derided the commission as a scheme to give Democrats political cover on the issue until after they face voters."
