Free kibbles

ECONOMY:

China surpasses US in IPOs. That's because China is more economically free than the US.

TAX AND SPEND:

FEMA is suing Katrina victims to recover money it spent improperly. Only the government could mess up a hurricane.

Thanks to Republicans, Obama will raise the debt ceiling again. And again. And again, forever and ever until we're all reduced to hunting and gathering for a living.

"Under the agreement struck in August during the showdown over the government's debt limit, the cap is automatically raised unless Congress votes to block the debt-ceiling extension. Lawmakers have 15 days within receiving the request to vote, which is largely symbolic because the president can veto it and Congress would be unlikely to muster the two-thirds majority to override it. Moreover, the U.S. House of Representatives also is in recess until January 17."

Remember when Republicans, after being voted into power in 2010 in unprecedented numbers to stop spending its tracks, gave Obama the power to raise the debt ceiling on his own authority? Could there be any more obvious a sign that Republicans are partners with Democrats in looting the American people? How many times are Republicans going to stab taxpayers in the back before voters quit voting for them?

REGULATION:

Bad regulations is redundant.

GLOBAL WARMING AND ENERGY:

I'm skeptical that Congress really ended the corn ethanol subsidy.

WAR ON DRUGS:

Great comparison of cannabis and Coca-Cola.

WAR:

The US government warns the Iranian government that it's not allowed to respond to US aggression. The US is orchestrating this to start a war with Iran.

POLITICS:

Santorum rising to challenge Romney and Paul in Iowa.

Gingrich says he would vote for Obama before Ron Paul. Gingrich is admitting he's more closely aligned ideologically to Obama than conservatives which is exactly what his record shows. Apparently Newt didn't get the memo that conservatives want anybody but Obama. It looks Gingrich is already collapsing. That statement will likely end his chance to win.

Tea partiers unhappy with freshmen they elected were fooling themselves.
