16 year old girl who doesn't age is still the size and mental capacity of a toddler.
Waxman-Markey passed a procedural vote in the House today, and it looks like it will pass the House. Yikes! Analysis shows more flaws with the CBO cost estimate of Waxman-Markey. The House passed the bill by 7 votes with 8 Republicans voting with the Democrats.
At least California's government is honest. They admit their CO2 tax is a tax.
Pirate hunting cruises are a free market solution to pirates.
In what world does it make sense to endanger lives during a seven mile car chase because a cab driver doesn't have a cab license? Is a cab license really worth killing people over? Apparently government thinks it is. Government must be obeyed or you and innocents around you forfeit your right to life. Why couldn't they just pick this guy up at his home or the next time they saw him at the airport?
Nice to see George Will publicize Mises scholar's research showing the punishing consequences of Spain's green jobs movement that Obama is using as a model.
The Onion reports US trading gold for cash to pay off debt. Funny.
This comment from Boortz regarding Mark Sanford is dead on:
"I'll tell you what really bothered me. Father's Day. It's Father's Day and this character is nowhere to be found. He has four sons wondering where their daddy is. How sad. Meanwhile .. another step backward for the Republicans. Look ... the Republicans love to parade through town on their moral high horses. When they fall off it's naturally going to make more noise."Absolutely.
SuperObama.
Obama leaning toward mandating health coverage. Government control of health care always means rationing. Congress to give unions tax breaks on health care, so non-union workers will be subsidizing union workers' health care. Obama hints at rationing care in town hall.
Yet more absurd rent control ideas from San Francisco.
Throwing money at schools doesn't make them perform better.
The government of California could run out of money by July 28th. It's easy to laugh at this, but this is a harbinger of future catastrophe. When the Federal government runs out of money, Mexico will still have oil money to throw around. I won't be surprised if Mexico offers to bail out California in the near future if it seceeds and joins Mexico. I know it sounds outlandish, but the Mexicans have been working to take back California for decades, and with the collapse of the US racing toward us like a freight train, they might well succeed.
How long will Barack Obama use the bromide about seizing the moment? Until it stops working.
Congressman wants to tax returns on short term investments at 80 percent. Day traders just spit coffee all over their keyboards. If this were to pass, there would be almost no companies that could go public. Nobody would take the risk on them.
This proves what I've always thought about electric cars. It's no more clean to drive them than to drive any other cars because the energy is produced from burning fossil fuels either way. In fact, I would imagine, all things being equal, electric cars are less fuel efficient because the energy has to change form twice, and that's always a lossy process.
Iran's government pushed dissension off the streets but exposed a clerical split.
Detroit public school system identifies 257 ghosts on the payroll. That's what you get when you give government a monopoly. Imagine what they'll do to us when they control our health care.
I'm not the only one who thinks Democrats' radical leftist agenda is slipping away. I think the tax and trade vote today, only winning by 7 votes in the House, is the last hurrah. The honeymoon with the press is fading almost as fast as the honeymoon with the people. I don't think tax and trade will pass the Senate, and that's going to make it easier to stop the rest of the agenda. But it's no time for complacency. As soon as the people get complacent, Democrats will slip something devastating by us. And Republicans can still screw us over too. 8 of them voted for tax and trade, or it would have died today. Plus, if Republicans filibuster Sotomayor like McConnell suggests they might, that would most likely backfire on Republicans, giving Democrats the momentum again.
