PLEASE PASS THIS TO YOUR FRIENDS--LET THEM KNOW MORE ABOUT POLITICS AND PUBLIC POLICY THE FORMER MAINSTREAM MEDIA WON'T TELL. THANKS
1. In Curt Exchange, U.S. Faults Israel on Housing, New York Times, 11/10/10
Barack Obama does not like Israel, that is clear. He believes the terrorist Palestinians are the rightful "owners" of Israel. What else could explain his continuous denouncement of Israeli policies, meant to protect them from terrorism?
"President Obama’s criticism of new Israeli housing plans for East Jerusalem, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s even sharper retort, have thrown the Middle East peace talks into jeopardy, with the dispute over Jewish settlements looming as a seemingly insuperable hurdle."
2. Manhattan Moment: How Republicans can break Obamacare before they repeal it, By: Paul Howard, Washington Examiner, 11/09/10:
We may not be able to repeal the death creating "ObamaCare". But the GOP, with control of Congress can stop most of its funding, most of its implementing commissions--like the death panels. It can be stripped and killed by lack of personnel and money.
"Instead of making a dramatic but doomed effort to overturn the health-care law with one stroke, critics of Obamacare should take a more measured, strategic approach--one that forces the president to defend the massively expensive and bureaucratic bill that he's inflicted on the country. At the same time, Republicans must present a coherent, bipartisan alternative that offers a menu of patient-friendly health-care reforms that expands coverage gradually without busting the federal budget.
Opponents of Obamacare should stay focused on two tracks: first, show why Obamacare fails to address the fundamental health-care problems afflicting the nation while spending trillions on a new health-care entitlement; second, make moderate voters comfortable with their own health-care reform agenda. Here's how they can do it."
3. Pelosi's House with No Center, A Commentary By Debra J. Saunders, Rasmussen Reports, 11/10/10
San Fran Nan has gotten here way. By forcing job killing, and health killing, legislation on America, she has also rid her Democrat Party of moderates and liberals. What is left in Congress are the hard core socialists, who believe their constituents are too stupid to live without a Nanny State. The Democrat Party in Congress is hard Left and represents to totalitarian nature of politics, not freedom. The good news is that in 2012 more congressional Democrats will lose--since the public will no longer accept socialism and Depression as economic policy.
"The San Francisco Chronicle urged Pelosi to "ride out the storm," citing her prowess as a fundraiser, her leadership skills and her commitment to representing the party's more liberal leanings if President Obama tries to move to the center. Her defenders also argue that the Dems lost big not because voters were rejecting Pelosi and company per se, but to protest the fact that the economy has yet to rebound.
Now, I do not see the 2010 vote as proof that voters have embraced the GOP. Far from it. But it's hard not to look at the tectonic House shift as anything other than voters calling for Obama and congressional Democrats to move to the center. If House Democrats elect Pelosi as their leader, they essentially will have signaled to voters: We are the party that doesn't listen."
4. Last-minute White House editing led to false implications in spill report, By Andrew Restuccia, Washington Independent, 11/10/10
The White House, once again, got caught lying--and jobs were lost. Thanks to the lies of Obama and his staff, tens of thousands in the gulf Coast lost their jobs and the economy will lose billions and the oil producers move to foreign countries--that are not socialist.
"Last-minute editing by the White House of a Department of the Interior report on the Gulf oil spill led to the false implication that the report’s recommendation of a six-month moratorium on deepwater drilling had been peer reviewed by scientists and industry experts, an inspector general report said on Monday.
The report, obtained by Politico, said scientists and industry experts “had neither reviewed nor supported such a policy decision and had never been asked to do so.”
Obama is assuring years of Depression in the United States--and he is proud of the accomplishment.
5. Clueless on a Shellacking, By Ruth Marcus, Real Clear Politics, 11/10/10
Barack Obama does not care about why he lost on November--he is happy that he has taken over banks, auto companies and your right to life. What does he care about the Democrat Party or its elected officials? Today he is denouncing Israel--what more could he ask out of life?
"The day after his shellacking, the bruised president offered a sober, tripartite analysis of voters' message. First, he said, voters are fed up with Washington partisanship and special-interest politics. Second, they feel insecure and uncertain, about their economic circumstances above all.
Sounds familiar so far, right? Except here's the next part, "The third thing they were saying ... is, 'There are things we expect government to do, but we don't think government can solve all the problems. And we don't want the Democrats telling us from Washington that they know what is right about everything.'"
That last pivot is what distinguishes -- you guessed it -- Bill Clinton 1994 from Barack Obama 2010. It's what worries me about the response of the shellackee in chief to the election results -- and, even more, the response of the soon-to-be-former House speaker, Nancy Pelosi. Their instincts have tended more to blaming the dogs for not understanding how good the food is for them, not accepting that it's time to tweak the recipe."
6. The National Anthem--Will bring tears to your eyes.
Listen to the singing of our nation anthem and watch the visual--as this song brings together a whole football stadium. Pass this on--I must admit I cried at the end--it is beautiful!
