Is Capitalism Evil?

American Thinker "If you think capitalism is at fault for bad management, you know nothing of human nature. To paraphrase Steve Forbes: If government run business was better than privately run business, then Communist Russia would have won the Cold War."

The role for reconciliation

Rep.Kent Conrad D-ND "Reconciliation is not being considered for passing comprehensive health-care reform. Major health-care reform legislation passed the Senate without reconciliation on Christmas Eve. If the House now passes that legislation, it can go immediately to President Obama's desk to be signed into law. What the president and others have suggested is that, after the House acts, reconciliation could then be used to pass a much smaller "fixer" bill to allow for modifications to the comprehensive bill that will have passed under regular order." "Call, write, protest. We Have To Stop The House!" Weasel Zippers

The Left and Its Cheap ‘Racism’ Charge — the Last Refuge of Scoundrels and ‘Media Matters’

Big Journalism "James O’Keefe has to be destroyed in some way. And the best way you can attack an effective conservative in America today is to call him a racist . In the past year the tactic has been used against Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Andrew Breitbart, Bill O’Reilly, Scott Brown, the entire Tea Party movement and, all those who oppose President Obama’s health care scheme (the last charge was leveled by none other than a former President)." To protect this man's reputation, he will be known only by the code name J---y C----r.

Low-tax Texas beats big-government California

Michael Barone "Now it is California's ruinously expensive and increasingly incompetent government that seems dysfunctional, while Texas' approach has generated more creativity and opportunity. So it's not surprising that Texas voters preferred Perry over an opponent who has spent 16 years in Washington. What's surprising is that Democrats in Washington are still trying to impose policies like those that have ravaged California rather than those that have proved so successful in Texas."

Iranian Clocks, Tick Tock, Tick Tock

Michael Ledeen "Some of those pious people who bleed oceans of ink for the sweet “victims of Guantanamo” would be more convincing if they could spare a few harsh words for the monsters who govern Iran, and who seek our death and destruction. "

The GOP Targets State Legislatures

Karl Rove "If the president's dismal approval ratings cost his party additional state legislative seats and with them control of redistricting this fall, there will be plenty of Democrats bitter about how Mr. Obama has brought low his party's fortunes. It seems that no Democrat, at any level, is immune to the politically poisonous effects of the Obama presidency."

Hollywood Elites Are Now Openly Calling For the Murder of Conservatives (Video)

Gateway Pundit " ‘Kill Glenn Beck’ draws laughs. Bill Maher commented on the Bush-bashing Pentagon shooter and registered democrat on his show last night: “Why Couldn’t (it) Have Been Glenn Beck?” Apparently, calling for the murder of conservatives is now acceptable speech for the Far Left and Hollywood."

Ahmadinejad believes 9/11 was a US hoax

Islamic Republic News Agency "The September 11 attack on the US and collapse of twin towers were parts of complicated intelligence move to give enough excuses for them to prepare the ground for invasion of Afghanistan under pretext of fighting terrorism, he said." That pretty much puts Ahmadinejad in line with American leftists such as the Austin plane bomber and Rosie O'Donnell.

Iraq: jihadist doctor killed dozens of wounded soldiers

JihadWatch "In fact, many of the wounded were almost certain to die because one of the doctors at the Republic Hospital was a member of an insurgent cell. Pretending to treat the injured men, he killed 43 of them by secretly administering lethal injections, a police inquiry has revealed." When Muslim doctors and soldiers collide. Oh, by the way...Alluh Akbar! Religion Not a Factor in Wife Honor Killing Beheading, Judge Rules "Hassan’s attorney plans a defense that includes claims that Hassan was abused by his wife and emotionally out of control. But prosecutors are fighting the use of a psychiatric defense. The Pakistan-born Hassans started Bridges TV in 2004, in part to dispel negative Muslim stereotypes." Irony alert!

Onward, He Said, Regardless

Charles Krauthammer"Unfortunately for Democrats, that seven-hour televised exercise had the unintended consequence of showing the Republicans to be not only highly informed on the subject, but also, as even Obama was forced to admit, possessed of principled objections -- contradicting the ubiquitous Democratic/media meme that Republican opposition was nothing but nihilistic partisanship.

S.O.S. — Save Our (Navy) Seals

Investors.com "We have reported how captured al-Qaida training manuals advise captured enemy combatants to lie about their treatment. "If you claim that you are tortured or mistreated, that will usually resonate with the hard left in America and around the world and they know it will have an impact," Rep. Dan Burton, R-Ind., said at a Thursday press conference with McCabe." Since Vietnam, I've watched America's enemies play our left like an accordian.
