President: USA is Out of Money

According to Drudge, Barack Obama admitted during a C-SPAN interview that the United States is out of money. That’s right. Out. SCULLY: You know the numbers, $1.7 trillion debt, a national deficit of $11 trillion. At what point do we run out of money?  OBAMA: Well, we are out of money now… Out. So what [...]

Wow. What can one really say to this? NEW YORK, May 19 (Reuters) – General Motors Corp’s (GM.N) plan for a bankruptcy filing involves a quick sale of the company’s healthy assets to a new company initially owned by the U.S. government, a source familiar with the situation said on Tuesday.

Follow your heart

You want to know where we went wrong with our kids? Let’s start with a story. You’re standing by a river. You see your  dog–the dog that you love and adore–drowning. But wait, a bit further down the stream there’s a man and he’s in trouble too! What do you do?  Do you jump in [...]

Meghan McCain Doesn’t Understand the GOP

Recently I was blocked from Meghan McCain’s Twitter page, so I cannot follower her. I can still see her posts, though, which is weird.

Hubble

And now, it’s time for some cutting edge political analysis. But, since we don’t have any of that, we’ll discuss something more interesting.

Michael Savage Banned from UK for “Fomenting Hatred”

Named and shamed: the 16 barred from UK – UK Politics, UK – The Independent. Now, I’m certainly no Savage fan…but banning him from a country simply because he speaks his mind is insane. And grouping him with people like Pastor Fred Waldron Phelps Snr and his daughter Shirley Phelps-Roper, who have picketed the funerals [...]

Swine Flu

I really hate to follow the crowd on this stuff…but I suppose I’ll address this. The swine flu is a lot of panic over nothing. Seriously. The seasonal flu that millions get every year is thousands of times more serious than this. The only thing that makes this flu remotely interesting is that it mutated [...]

Congresswoman Brags Obama Healthcare Plan Will Destroy Private Health Insurance Industry

“I know many of you here today are single payer advocates and so am I … and those of us who are pushing for a public health insurance don’t disagree with this goal. This is not a principled fight. This is a fight about strategy for getting there and I believe we will,” Rep. Jan [...]
