Gateway Pundit " “The Constitution nowhere authorizes the United States to mandate, either directly or under threat of penalty, that all citizens and legal residents have qualifying health care coverage,” the lawsuit says."

Is America’s AAA Rating in Trouble?

Repeal; A one-word agenda for Republicans.

William Kristol "Of course that can’t be the whole message in 2010 and 2012. Of course there will be other important issues. And even on this issue, the message will have to be not just repeal but also replace--replace Obamacare with sensible reforms. What’s more, working out exactly how to repeal and replace the parts of the legislation that will already be in effect is an important task, one to which I know Paul Ryan has already given some thought."

Steps You Can Take Ahead of Changes in Coverage, Taxes

WSJ "Do your homework. This legislation will almost certainly affect your wallet and your health coverage, so you need to understand it.

US Communist Party paper: Health Care Is A Giant First Step

Sweetness&Light "As we have noted several times previously, the people behind Health Care for America NOW are the same people who fought the ‘surge’ in Iraq and tried to force our immediate withdraw[al] from Afghanistan and Iraq. They, the CPUSA, the unions and so many of the elements who rammed through ‘healthcare reform’ hate this country. So what does that tell you about ‘healthcare reform’? Emphasis added.

Clinton Pal Orders Release Of Terrorist

Sweetness&Light “...of the cases I had seen, [Slahi] was the one with the most blood on his hands.” And isn’t it odd how the Associated Press neglected to mention that? Indeed, the AP also somehow managed to omit any background on the judge who issued this preposterous and dangerous order. For the record, Judge James Robertson was appointed a United States District Judge by Bill Clinton in 1994, and he made an early career out of protecting the Clintons." Its good to have friends in high places.

Bibi Responds

While thanking the Obama administration for its aid and opposition to the Goldstone Report and reaffirming the bonds and common foes of the two nations, Netanyahu’s messages were unmistakable: take care of Iran or Israel will act, and we are not to be bullied on Jerusalem. But he said it much more elegantly than that." ...."But the speech, I think, will be most remembered for the bold refutation of what has passed as the Obami Middle East policy. One question remains: how will the U.S.-Israel relationship weather the Obama administration, given the differences in outlook and approach? That’s far from clear."

Stupak Hits Historic Low

Infidel Bloggers Alliance "There have been few more disgraceful, even pathetic, moments in politics than the speech by Rep. Bart Stupak (D.-Mich.) on the floor of the House of Representatives last night in which he called a Republican motion to recommit "disingenuous". "
