With all due respect to the President, claims that Republicans "do not have any ideas" about Healthcare Reform is disingenious (at best) and outright dishonesty (at worst). For the best part of his first year in office, President Obama and Congressional Democratic leaders have been attempting to ram through legislation that would raise cost and taxes on those who currently have insurance while devolving their quality and choices. They attempted this political steamroll refusing to allow Republicans to participate in the process, blocking all Republican efforts to

It is one of SwamiDave's undenialble truths: "Perspective is closely linked to Proximity; Things are rarely as good or as bad as they seem!" That reality has not been more evident than events over the past 12-18 months. Seemingly 12 months ago, the political punditry were busily delivering eulogies for Conservatism while many Conservatives were behaving as if they were friendless hermits drudging through a lonely, miserable existence. With recent electoral events, many of those same talking heads are declaring an inevitable Conservative tsunami i

In his State of the Union speech, President Obama took the occasion to challenge one of the most recent Supreme Court decisions with the Justices sitting right in front of him. Voicing his displeasure like some badgering school marm while the Justices were largely acting in their historic respectful and non-partisan demeanor, the President went so far as to misrepresent one of the crucial points of the majority decision.

In case you missed it last week, President Obama became aware that deficits are growing at an astronomical pace during his time in office. In something of a reprise of his role as Candidate Obama (the quasi-moderate) who waxed metaphorically of how American cannot continue "to spend money that we don't have as if it is Monopoly money", the now-President announced that his budget would freeze spending.

Healthcare reform is stalled.......a Jobs Bill is encountering obstacles......Cap-N-Trade is going nowhere......another Stima-Spendulous is questionable........the American economy is still bleeding jobs at a rapid pace.......Deficits are growing at levels unimaginable just 12 months ago......

On at least one thing, the President was right: We the American People do not give up; we do not quit! Remember that Mr.

Fresh with a still-stinging boot print along their posterior after Senator-Elect Scott Brown (R-MA) election one week ago, it seems as though many liberal Democrats are still trying to envision and plan a path by which they can circumvent the normal legislative process and gain passage of their over-reaching Healthcare Deform legislation. Voices from the kook-left fringe and current party leadership appear unfazed in their calls to force through what voters in Massachusetts (specifically) and nationwide (based on most all current polling) are now shouting that they do not want.

As the "Tea Party" phenomenom was gathering steam during 2009, Democrats (trying to belittle this motivated and active opposition) coined a new dismissive: "AstroTurfing". This term was used as a insult calling to question the "Grassroots" nature of this opposition to Healthcare "Deform" and the other myriad of socialist schemes. According to this perspective, such active opposition was "ginned up" and "manufactured" among a bunch of supposedly "mindless" followers in response to Pied-Piper guidance from Conse

Less than a week since Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) was the fodder of political discussions with his quoted statements about how then-Candidate Obama acted in a stereotypical manner when it politically suited him, another Senate (now) Democrat, Arlen Specter (D-PA) is tossing his hat in the "Be-Glad-You-Are-A-Democrat" sweepstakes for boneheaded statements. In a radio interview with Congresswoman Michelle Bachman (R-MN), the Senator, on more than on occasion, told the Congresswoman that "I am going to treat you like a lady....now act like one!" If
