Pelosi fine with jailing the uninsured

clipper's remarks: This should put to rest the lie the left is spreading that conservatives are lying when they say you could go to jail for not buying insurance under the democrat health care takeover.

I fiddled with cutting down this video…

…of Speaker Pelosi admitting that she’s fine with sending people who don’t want to be insured to jail (H/T: Infidels are Cool); but I’m not all that happy with the results. Which is interesting, because I’m also not happy with the notion of throwing poor people into jail just because Speaker Pelosi wanted to raid taxpayer wallets and pocketbooks for the benefit of the Democratic Party’s various special interest groups.

What Goldstone says about the US

clipper's remarks: History is being altered as we speak.

Clip Source: english.aljazeera.net

Opponents of the Goldstone report might well be hoping that after its lopsided condemnation in the US House of Representatives and successful relegation back to the UN's Human Rights Commission, the report will become little more than an historical footnote in a decades-long conflict

But historians can do a great deal with footnotes

When the glare of history is finally shone upon the whole affair, it might well turn out that the reasons for such vehement opposition from US politicians, and only tepid (at best) support for it among other major powers, have far more to do with their own geostrategic interests than with protecting Israel

The report, written by South African jurist Richard Goldstone, has caused uproar in Israel and the US for its alleged bias against Israel and avoidance of serious criticism of Hamas. The condemnation, House Resolution 867, passed by a 344-36 vote

Before the vote on the resolution, Goldstone sent a letter to members of Congress refuting most of the allegations

Republicans Edge Ahead of Democrats for 2010 House Elections, Poll Shows

According to a Gallup poll released Wednesday, 48 percent of voters said they would back a Republican, while 44 percent said they would support a Democrat, if the 2010 House elections were held today.

Republican National Committee chairman Michael Steele (AP).

Fresh off major Election Day victories in Virginia and New Jersey, Republicans got another boost Wednesday with a new Gallup poll that shows registered voters would favor the GOP over Democrats if the 2010 congressional election were held today.

Independent voters were decidedly stronger in their preference for a Republican candidate, choosing the GOP by a 22 percent margin -- 52 to 30 percent -- according to the survey.

"The wind is going to be at the backs of the Republicans" going into the 2010 midterm elections, but "it could be anything from a breeze to hurricane force," Sabato added.

The The "The Beat(en) Generation"

clipper's remarks: And our youth, oh youth, are being seduced
By the greedy hands of politics and half truths

The beaten generation, the beaten generation
Reared on a diet of prejudice and misinformation
The beaten generation, the beaten generation
Open your eyes, open your imagination

We're being sedated by the gasoline fumes
And hypnotised by the satellites
Into believing what is good and what is right

You may be worshipping the temples of mammon
Or lost in the prisons of religion
But can you still walk back to happiness
When you've nowhere left to run?

If they send in the special police
To deliver us from evil and keep us from peace

Then won't the words sit ill upon their tongues
When they tell us justice is being done
That freedom lives in the barrels of a warm gun?

The beaten generation, the beaten generation
Reared on a diet of prejudice and misinformation
The beaten generation, the beaten generation
Open your eyes, open your imagination

Obama's wars are just like Bush's

On Iraq, the new president has faithfully followed the policy of George W. Bush, and now Iraq threatens breakdown.

Obama ran on a promise to fight the “right war” in Afghanistan. This policy rests upon the monumental assumption that victory can be found in a military campaign meant to alter the character of Central Asian political and religious society so as to remake it in the American image—what Condoleezza Rice defined a year ago as the Bush administration’s policy, and what is now apparently the Obama policy.

In the time-honored bureaucratic fashion, the president’s military advisers have offered him three troop options—one impossibly high, one suicidally small, and one, the one they actually want, in between, and “just right.”(In poker games, this is known as “forcing” the card onto the patsy.) The troops are already on the move. It will be some time before we see them again.

the military disaster that is now in the course of manufacture in the “Af-Pak” theater of unwinnable wars.

More users, same dysfunctional health care

There are two great health-care crises in America—one in-volving coverage and the other cost. The Obama plan appears likely to tackle the first but not the second. This is bad economics but also bad politics: the crisis of cost affects 85 percent of Americans, while the crisis of coverage affects about 15 percent. Obama's message to the country appears to be "We have a dysfunctional health-care system with out-of-control costs, and let's add 45 million people to it."

Daniela Santanche: Feminist

clipper's remarks: She would make Orianna Fallaci proud

Clip Source: tundratabloid.blogspot.com

Via Sheik Yer'Mami, the following article is bound to piss off a heap of those who follow that desert madman called Mo. This brave feminist (unlike the pseudo feminists who applaud the burka) calls things as they are, and is not afraid of confrontation. The last time she was in the international news, she was assaulted by Muslims for protesting against the highly offensive Muslim body bags called burkas and niqabs.

We need more brave politicians like Daniela Santanche to speak the truth and call things as they are and political correctness be damned. Santanche has every right to speak the historical truth and not cover things up due to Muslim sensibilities, and more importantly, Muslim intimidation. The more we cave into the role (read = dhimmitude) Islam has carved out for us, the more we will become straight-jacketed into subservience.

MP Daniela Santanche:

It's all true, go ahead and look it up!

Homophobic is a “made-up word”

I always wondered what that word truly meant.

“”Homophobic” is merely a made-up word to try to force everyone to be politically correct on gay marriage or risk being accused of being hateful.” - Carrie Prejean (scholar and former Miss California bimbo)

Nice. I’m sure that every gay person who has ever been a victim of homophobia will be relieved to know it’s a “made-up” word, ’cause, you see, if it’s “made-up” then it doesn’t exist.

God, I love it when people simplify complicated issues for me.

GOP Leader: Americans asking where are the jobs are getting more the same from out-of-touch Washington Democrats: more spending, more debt, and more government.

Washington, Nov 7 - WASHINGTON, D.C. House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) issued the following statement shortly after Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and House Democrats passed a 2,032-page, $1.3 trillion government takeover of health care:

I came here to renew the American Dream, so my kids and their kids have the same opportunities I had. I came here to fight big-government monstrosities like this bill that dim the light of freedom and diminish opportunity for future generations.

Americans want a common-sense approach to health care reform, not Speaker Nancy Pelosis 2,032-page government takeover that increases costs, adds to our skyrocketing debt, destroys jobs with tax hikes and new mandates, and
