Washington Bailing Out Everybody!

The federal government picked up the pieces of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae's irresponsibility, by bailing them out.  Here's why they did it.  The bailout apparently has Washington ignoring its collective free-market ideology.  I haven't heard much free market ideology coming from Washington in a long time, even before this.

 

Now the US auto giants plan on asking Washington for a bailout.  Nobody's willing to take responsibility anymore.

 

The global warming nuts have tipped their hand with this one:  pollution from Asia may cause higher temperatures in the United States.  I'll tell you today what this little revelation reveals about environmentalists.

 

This has been one of the coldest summers ever in Alaska.

 

Government is getting in the way of Ford selling a 65 mpg car in the United States.

 

John McCain has said that he will include Democrats in his Cabinet.  He says he wants the "smartest people in America."  What good is it to be smart if they're wrong?

 

The Obama campaign is going to put more female surrogates on the campaign trail to counter the influence of Sarah Palin.  It just shows that they're scared.  They should be; they're down in the polls now, including by 10 points among likely voters, and Sarah Palin is so popular that she's caused a run on her eyeglasses and hair.

 

The liberal media is desperately looking for attacks on Palin, so they're going after her church.  Apparently they try to "convert" gays.  Why is it that Palin's church is fair game, but Obama's isn't?

 

Obama had a little slip-up and referred to "[his] Muslim faith."  I will talk about this once and only once.

 

Here's a reporting of how Sarah Palin beat the establishment in Alaska.  After taking that on, nothing in Washington (especially Joe Biden) is going to scare her.

 

Obama is all but admitting that raising taxes are bad for the economy, as he plans on keeping the Bush tax cuts at least until the non-existent recession ends.

 

Bob Barr had an op-ed column in the Washington Times about immigration, saying that we need to secure the border before we do anything else.  He's right, but that's not the big issue this year.

 

The headline of this story says enough:  "Grady Needs Paying Patients."

 

The greedy OPEC cartel is still considering cutting oil production, since the price of oil is too low.

 

You have to get the warm fuzzies from this story from the loving, caring, peaceful religion of Islam:  a girl who wanted an annulment of her forced arranged marriage (at the age of 9) has been killed by her parents.  Isn't Islam wonderful?
