You have to watch this speech from a Conservative Party member of the British Parliament regarding government spending. If only an American politician would give this speech.
With all of the problems facing the United States, what is the Senate worried about? How college football picks their champion.
Even though card check appears to be dead (for now), FedEx is still threatening to cancel a $3.75 billion purchase of Boeing airplanes if Congress makes it easier for their employees to unionize. They just can't deal with the expense of having all-union labor. Investor's Business Daily writes about the harmful effects of unions on the state of California. Thanks to the UAW (and the entitlement mentality of their employees) GM is having trouble getting rid of employees they no longer need.
The New York Medicaid program paid for teeth cleaning for toothless patients.
Even the New York Times is reporting on President Obama's reliance on Teleprompters.
Now the Associated Press is telling us that any jobs from the "stimulus" plan won't be able to be measured. We were talking about this almost 2 months ago; why didn't they come around then?
The Obama Administration is no longer using the term "Global War on Terror." Instead, it's an "Overseas Contingency Operation."
Obama is already failing on foreign policy, and even the mainstream, uppity, navel-gazing media is starting to turn on him.
Republicans are trying to figure out whether they should work with the Blue Dogs to battle Obama's big-spending budget. They just can't figure out which matters more, what Blue Dogs say or what they do.
A "debt bomb" hit Wall Street yesterday, wiping out early gains before a rally. This is bad if we're going to continue to spend our way into more debt.
Environmentalists, led by Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) are getting in the way of solar panels and wind turbines. This might not be such a bad thing, considering the solar panels installed in Denver for last year's DNC won't pay for themselves until 2118. Also in California, a state bureaucracy is looking at banning black cars because of "global warming."
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says that the United States is partly to blame for the drug violence in Mexico. She's right, and it has nothing to do with not having a ban on assault weapons.
Hillary might need to worry more about what North Korea is doing these days before we end up at war with them.
In one of the signs of coming socialism, more young people are trying to get government jobs.
In an ironic twist, the IRS (now run by tax cheat Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner) is offering a deal to tax evaders.
Yesterday the Senate passed a Soviet-style "service" bill. Chambliss and Isakson both voted for it.
Read some of the threats to AIG executives. Warning: implied filthy language.
What took so long for this? At least eight states are proposing legislation requiring recipients of government assistance to take drug tests. This should have been a no-brainer 40 years ago, but instead our tax dollars are actually buying drugs for some people.
George Soros made $1.1 billion last year, saying that he is "having a very good crisis." If the left is going to make a show about greed, it should be this guy.
Obama's half-brother might have cholera, and his aunt might be deported. Time to start spreading your own wealth, Barry.
The state House and Senate can't seem to work together on a transportation plan. Right now the House is proposing making the Senate plan a backup if the House plan fails in referendum. The Senate doesn't like that idea.
Houston Healthcare is now going to be a voting member of Vision 2020.
Only in Macon: a guy was stabbed over a waffle.
