First Sowing — Now Reaping?

Victor Davis Hanson "Now that foreign leaders have had more than a year to size up the Obama administration, I think things abroad are going to begin to happen quite quickly. At best, American policy is so lethargic that it will force freeloaders and opportunists to grow up and get out on their own; at worst, we have flipped — and are no longer the world’s staunch bastion of support for free-market capitalist democracy."

ObamaCare Rules & Regs; fright warning!

Lucianne "As a practicing physician, I have major concerns with the health care bill before Congress. I actually have read the bill & am shocked by the brazenness of the government’s proposed involvement in the patient-physician relationship. ....the proposed bills currently making their way through congress will be a disaster if passed. I ask you respectfully & as a patriotic American to look at the following troubling lines that I have read in the bill. You cannot possibly believe that these proposals are in the best interests of the country & our fellow citizens."

OBAMACARE, INSURANCE COMPANIES AND FEAR-MONGERING

Boortz "Perhaps the worst case of fear-mongering has come from the man himself - Barack Obama. His latest push to demonize the health insurance companies is just one example.

James Cameron Rewriting WWII & Undermining Christianity: Unwitting Fool or Willing Dupe?

BigHollywood "James Cameron’s next project may well be a film about Hiroshima. Sure, after the powerful show of solidarity he gave to our troops in the largely Oscar-free Avatar, you are probably thinking, “Hey, this will be a fair-minded project that shows that dropping the A-Bomb on Japan was a tough but necessary decision which ended up saving hundreds of thousands of American lives – and probably millions of Japanese.” Surprise!

‘Will and Grace’ Star: Leno ‘Insane’ for Appealing to Red State Viewers

BigHollywood "Once upon a time it was a comedian’s job to mock the president, no matter his or her party affiliation. That’s not always the case anymore.

It’s that of a comedian who realizes appealing to both sides of the ideological aisle makes good business sense."

Matt Damon’s Bush-Bashing, Anti-American Iraq War Movie Bombs at Box Office

Gateway Pundit "When will Hollywood learn that just because they hate America does not mean that we hate America?" Green Zone Bombs . "Green Zone, starring Matt Damon and directed by Paul Greengrass, tries to rewrite the history of the war, claiming that the CIA, the Bush administration and the Army knew all along that Saddam lacked stockpiles of WMDs, and that Sunni insurgents were admirable patriots targeted by evil American death squads. Seriously."
