GA Democrats Want To Raise Taxes

President Obama unveiled $1.5 billion in housing help in Las Vegas today.  What was that about not going to Vegas and blowing a bunch of money if you're in debt?

 

A Tea Party speaker called for the hanging of Sen. Patty Murray (D-WA).  This is the kind of thing that delegitimizes the movement.

 

The Cook Report says that it is possible for the Republicans to take a majority in the House in November.  We should be trying to provide two Republicans for that effort in Middle Georgia.  Unfortunately, only 43% of voters expect change if the Republicans take over Washington.

 

The EPA spent over $1 million per job created by the "stimulus" spending.  In Augusta, the Head Start program claimed 317 jobs created or saved when it really should have been 0.03 jobs.

 

Newt Gingrich and Peter Ferrara think that the next target for the class warfarists will be your 401(k).

 

ObamaCare might be back, and the administration is going to try to use reconciliation to get around a Republican filibuster.

 

The Media Research Center has another report proving left-wing political bias in the navel-gazing media.

 

This deficit reduction commission that Obama started yesterday does not have any restrictions on what they can consider.  My guess is that they won't consider cuts or reform of Medicare or Social Security.

 

There may have been another inside attempt to attack members of the United States Military by Islamist terrorists.

 

Rep. Sanford Bishop says that, thanks to the "stimulus," the economy is recovering again.

 

Here's another call for the Walking Ethics Complaint to withdraw from the race for Governor and resign as Insurance Commissioner.

 

The budget for a transportation project on I-85 in Gwinnett County has gone from $36.5 million to $123.9 million.  It's no wonder the state can't find any money for their transportation needs.

 

State Democrats have presented their ideas to balance the budget, and—surprise!—it includes tax increases.

 

Jason Pye thinks that the Republicans will end up raising taxes this year as well.  At least that's what he's getting from the tea leaves in the legislature's recess.

 

Over a hundred people attended the school choice rally yesterday at the State Capitol.

 

Speaker David Ralston brought the House to a screeching halt yesterday after seeing a lobbyist in the House chamber.  He's taking this ethics thing pretty seriously.

 

The thug life is spreading from Macon to Warner Robins.  Four of them beat another man outside a club early this morning.  Preventing this is the reason for needing a better facility for the WRPD.
