		<title>Comment on Richardson’s Universal Health Disaster by Charles Gordon</title>

		<description>Most people agree we need health care reform.  There are, as always, two ways to go from where we are -- to socialism or to capitalism.

Socialism, as always, means redistributing the current supply of health care.  You freeze the price and then you ration.  And most people who have do worse. And since most people have, most people will indeed do worse.

Capitalism means policies that create more supply so everyone has access to more.  

Should be a no-brainer, but not enough pro-market folks explain it well enough....that plus media bias make it tough to get out the message that free-market solutions are a viable alternative to socialized medicine.</description>

		<description>Cheney made a nice joke about warming at a correspondents dinner, where he basically said, "It's just spring."

A friend once said that getting hysterical about warming is like fretting when the sun sets that all life will die in its absence.  Sure it will -- if it doesn't rise again.  But it will, and that's the point.</description>

		<description>We forget that, while any loss of life is tragic, we lost 13 times as many troops in Korea in just three years of combat as we've lost in Iraq in five.  

And what been happening in Iraq, due to the surge and widespread Sunni revulsion over al Qaeda's depradations, is more than encouraging.  It is al Qaeda, far more than America, which is in a quagmire there.  Unwittingly, our presence in Iraq drew al Qaeda fighters in from around the world like a Venus fly trap.  Now they're being consumed.  Meanwhile, all Osama can do is yell at his fighters from the safety of his cave for not fighting bravely enough.</description>

		<description>Rush has the right to do what he's done, but aside from that, the strategy could ironically help put Hillary in the White House.  If Obama's the nominee, he has a good chance of losing, because lots of Hillary backers won't vote for him because of the Rev. Wright affair.  On the other hand, if Hillary is the nominee, I fear she will surprise everybody by winning back far more support from Obama's black base than folks realize.  That will be the shocker of 2008 that will put her in the White House.

I really hope I'm wrong on this....but...</description>

		<description>I never counted Hillary out.  I understand the rationale behind conservatives wanting to strengthen her hand, but it's a risky game. The end could be Hillary in the White House. 

Enough said.</description>

		<description>The evidence for Christ's resurrection is surprisingly strong.  I say "surprisingly" because all too many people have assumed otherwise without looking into the matter.  The shocker for anyone who chooses to investigate is just how strong it is....

After 20 centuries, nobody has come up with a plausible alternative to what happened. That doesn't "prove" it's true -- but if it were true, it's exactly what you'd expect to find -- no convincing refutation after all this time.</description>

		<description>Hillary is extremely tenacious and she is going to keep on fighting until she is completely outgunned and the Democrats figure out what to do with Michigan and Florida.  Hillary is absolutely not going to stop fighting so that she can be President until they slam the door shut in her face.

		<description>I think it would be wise for Huckabee to run for Senate, we need leaders like him out there promoting TRUE Republican values.  

This is why I am excited that Jim Gilmore is running for the Senate, even though he like Huckabee did try to win the White House (grant it Gilmore did not last as long, but he did have a solid message.)

We need strong leaders stepping forward to return the Senate to Republican control.</description>

		<description>It is just strange how the media keeps counting her out, since we do all know the Bill will do anything to become First Lady.  
Too many Democrats owe the Clintons, and it is going to be kind of odd for these insiders, Super Delegates, to explain their votes for Hillary when Obama did so well in the vote count.
It is also very strange that Hillary is considered Conservative, when she is definetly a Liberal.</description>

		<title>Comment on The Coming Brokered Democratic Convention by Billgls</title>

		<description>Democrats put themselves into this corner; they are damned if they do and ruined if they do not!  Pour it on and keep their failure to Govern evident to the voter’s judgment until days after election.   

They, The Democrats are the ones who invented Political Correctness that curtails our first amendment constitutional privileges. 

Obama denies his pastor REV. DR. JEREMIAH WRIGHT, TRINITY UNITY CHURCH OF CHRIST:  

Jesus answered him: Wilt thou lay down thy life for me?  Amen, amen, I say to thee, the cock shall not crow, till thou deny me thrice: John 13:38.  Denial of Wright indeed is evidence for Obama’s willingness to betray a friend since 1991 to gain what he covets most, POWER OF THE OFFICE OF PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.  Be assured that he would betray the USA in haste; it shows what an anomalous enemy the half- Nigerian, half-American is, the cock never crowed but once. 

 I remember the sub zero days of the cold war when Communism was threatening to destroy us from within.  It certainly appears as they have captured the democrat party and that would make Communism half way there.  Reporting this morning Center for Individual Freedom says; “Would you believe it if we told you that the U.S. House of Representatives voted to raise the price you pay for gasoline at the pump and -- at the same time -- give a huge tax break to that America-hating dictator Hugo Chavez?”
 Patriot Post Quote of the week” The Democratic party is very close to being the [Communist-controlled Progressive] party of Henry Wallace... Today’s left sees the world pretty much in the same terms as the Stalinists did. What has happened is that it has lost its faith in the working class, so its agenda is entirely negative. They’ve dropped the dictatorship of the proletariat and they all say they’re democrats, but so did Lenin. The vast bulk of the American left is a Communist left and they’ve introduced some fascist ideas like ‘identity politics,’ which is straight out of Mussolini. They don’t talk about the working class, they talk about women and race. There’s not much that they’ve learned from the history of the 20th century.” —David Horowitz

However, like the Russian Communists, the Dems have miscalculated and America is not ready and will never be ready for COMMUNISM.

As George Washington said”: We should never despair, our Situation before has been unpromising and has changed for the better, so I trust, it will again. If new difficulties arise, we must only put forth new Exertions and proportion our Efforts to the exigency of the times.” —George Washington; and repeated in his own words yesterday by President George W. Bush. 

Take back our first amendment rights; tear down this “Politician Correctness” and speak your own mind just as a Democrat, Geraldine Ferraro did last week about the half-Nigerian half American Obama. 

Obama, if you have an ounce of dignity you will resign your Senate seat.  Then surrender your candidacy of the Presidential Campaign, immediately.  It is a shame for we Republicans will have to  take on a more formable candidate than you will ever be.</description>

		<description>Well, even more to the point, Giuliani should have run against Clinton in 2000 -- when he said he would -- and her career could have ended right then.  And yeah, I get why he pulled out of the race; but he should have pressed on.

And also yes:  I have a growing list of politicians who've put their short-term personal calculus ahead of the needs of the nation (not to mention the movement and the party).  FWIW.</description>
