Marshall Town Hall Recap

This health care reform is all about socialism and wealth redistribution, but don't expect any Democrats to acknowledge that fact.  After all, most voters think that they understand the health care bill better than members of Congress.  Even in Massachusetts, where they already have essentially the same plan that the Democrats are considering now, only 53% of voters in that very blue state support the plans in Washington.

 

America's own government run health care system, the VA, is anticipating lawsuits after their negligence in not cleaning colonoscopy equipment and infecting some Veterans with HIV and Hepatitis.

 

The Justice Department is going to appoint a special prosecutor to go after CIA agents who engaged in interrogation techniques that the far left, including the Obama administration, finds offensive.  The dirty little secret is that those interrogation techniques worked.

 

The White House is projecting bigger deficits and bigger debt.  In other words, they either lied or had no clue what they were doing when they issued their previous estimates.  They also raised the estimate for unemployment.

 

After the cash-for-clunkers debacle, now it's time for cash for refrigerators.

 

Obama has nominated Ben Bernanke to serve another four-year term as chairman of the Federal Reserve.  Will there be an audit of the Fed?

 

SAT scores in Georgia dropped for the third straight year, ranking 47th out of 51 nationally.

 

Our issue with Marshall's staff yesterday over broadcasting the town hall meeting made it to the blogosphere.  I'll start my breakdown of the entire meeting during the third hour today.
