I have flown on some of the swankiest jets the US Air Force flies. Gulfstreams, Boeing jets, I’ve even been on Air Force One once. It is truly amazing the air fleet the US Air force has for official travel. So I’m not surprised that Congress has been using this fleet of fully decked out aircraft, most of which leave and depart from Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland.
Many people are genuinely concerned by the sheer size of the deficits and how much the national debt will grow. I’ve been asked: Does it matter? Why does it matter? What about the Chinese owning our debt? Do future generations really pay off the debts? Does it limit economic growth? Reduce wages? Increase interest rates?
How easy is it for the Senate majority leader to just ramrod through legislation? Not very.
The makers of Tylenol, Excedrin, and other medications containing acetaminophen are trying to dissuade regulators from placing new restrictions on their popular painkillers, including possibly removing some of them from store shelves.
President Obama announced Monday that he is setting new standards for fluorescent and incandescent lighting as part of a series of steps to promote energy efficiency across the country. “I know light bulbs may not seem sexy, but this simple action holds enormous promise because 7 percent of all the energy consumed in America is used to light our homes and businesses,” the President said, standing alongside Energy Secretary Steven Chu at the White House a few hours ago.
If the sin of the Bush Doctrine was threatening conflict before it was appropriate, the sin of the Obama Doctrine is ensuring US surrender before the first shot is even fired.
It’s own drafters didn’t have a clue what was in it. Heck, they didn’t even have a full official copy of the BILL on the floor during the debates. That didn’t stop these Republican from breaking with what is the core of our party’s platform to enact what will be the second largest tax increase in American history (the largest tax increase is reserved for whatever President Obama manages to get through on “Deathcare”).
In this piece, I take the President’s press conference of June 23, 2009, and break down the “Obamaspeak” into something a bit more manageable on the health care issue.
A independent short film at YouTube about the Canadian single-payer system and an individual suffering from brain cancer.
Part of the reason why revelations like Gov. Sanford’s hurt the Republican party so much is we hold ourselves to a high moral standard. One element of that standard is, you don’t cheat on your wife. Thus, if a Republican goes out and has an affair, it is much more of a problem than if a Democrat does. No one expects Democrats to have any adherence to a standard because the party enforces no such standard. Democrats don’t run on “family values,” nor do they run on the “rule of law” as their platform guidance. Hence, Democrats who have problems tend not to get thrown overboard. I’m not saying they’re bad people, I’m saying that partisan doctrine doesn’t impose on its members a set of consistent ethical standards.
