SINISTER DOINGS AFOOT

Neal Boortz "While you can read this new bill here, it won't be worth your time. Why? Because these 2,300 pages aren't even the 2,300 pages that the President and Speaker Pelosi want us to vote on. That's right: the pages that they want us to vote on haven't even been completed yet. The bill that the Budget Committee is working on is simply a placeholder because the Speaker is still working out new language. The plan, we're told, is that Budget Committee will finish its work today to move the process along and then tomorrow--likely deep into the night--the Rules Committee will take up the bill. The Rules Committee will completely erase the 2,300 pages approved by the Budget Committee and insert thousands of entirely new pages into the bill."

Pedal to the Medal: It's Time to Flood Congress with Calls, E-mails

Rush Limbaugh "Call the Capitol Switchboard: 877-762-8762 or 202-224-3121• Code Red: Click Here for List of Targeted Congressmen .".... "Well, hint, hint! The Republicans can't stop Obama. The American people can, but the Republicans can't. They don't have the votes to stop Obama. This is not about the Republicans! The Founding Fathers intended none of this. Heritage Foundation is on a mission to make sure you know exactly how the Democrats are damaging the bedrock of our system of government."

Our Reset Reset Foreign Policy

Victor Davis Hanson "Fortunately, for the country, Obama did not take three years to reverse course, unlike Jimmy Carter whose inaction led to a series of foreign policy catastrophes like the 1979 Soviet invasion of Afghanistan and the storming of the U.S. embassy in Tehran." Will the lessons learned from this bad experience keep us from doing this again? I think not.

Americans see Obama as weakening the U.S.

National Review- "And that is how, in 14 short months, the American people’s confidence in President Obama and his party’s ability to keep us safe has plummeted. This is unfortunate, given that it takes presidents a long time to regain — at home and abroad — power they’ve lost. Friend and foe have taken his measure. And his foes are happier than his friends."

The Slaughter Strategy(to pass Obamacare)

NRO "Under this scheme, House members would vote on a bill of amendments to the despised Senate bill, and the Senate bill would be “deemed” to have passed if this companion bill is approved. This is supposed to inoculate House members, who could say they never actually voted for the Senate bill."...."Rep. Mike Pence (R., Ind.) gave the rallying cry for opponents in a speech this week: “This is a five-alarm fire! Think about the biggest battle you have ever fought and double your effort. This is the most important fight of our time!” " Emphasis added.

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. And how about the president's favorite example of Anthem Blue Cross in California increasing premium rates by 39%? What Obama fails to tell you is this ...."

Ratings agency warns on US public finances. This could be a big problem.

Financial Times "Moody’s Investor Service, the credit rating agency, will fire a warning shot at the US on Monday, saying that unless the country gets public finances into better shape than the Obama administration projects there would be “downward pressure” on its triple A credit rating." And this: Bloomberg.com

Blue Dog Democrats you can contact

SmartGirlPolitics "If you are in a Blue Dog District, please contact your representative and tell them to vote NO to any health care bill that provides a government plan." The ones with three asterisks also voted for Cap-and-Trade. Good luck.

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! Instead, it promises to not only be another round of America-bashing..."
