Fifty-three cents on the dollar? More than half?

Well, here’s the article and Poll that says so.

Now, keep this in mind when realizing how much the government has recently been spending and raising our debt limit …

Expiration Date: Middle Class Tax Hikes

Posted on February 11, 2010 | 1 comment

President Obama fooled middle-class voters into supporting him in 2008 with this pledge. Didn’t he? He said this during his 2008 campaign:

“No family making less than $250,000 will see any form of tax increase. … not any of your taxes.”

And now, he says he is an “agnostic” about that. Can you believe that?

Why can’t we have an honest President? Eh?

UPDATEDx5: Summit: GOP – Show Up And Argue Points

Posted on February 11, 2010 | Leave a comment

Don’t miss this opportunity, GOP.

It is equally important to the public at large that you be seen fighting for us. As opposed to just turning your backs on this Summit meeting.

If you don’t, this could likely backfire and lend more fuel to the Administration’s rhetoric in the MSM.

We, the country and Constitution, cannot afford that. Help us, by showing up and doing your job by fighting for us.

Please and Thank You.

UPDATE:
Thank you, House Republican Whip Eric Cantor.

UPDATEx2: According to Speaker Pelosi, this event is a trick and the Dems will use reconciliation to force the existing bill through. Pay attention folks.

UPDATEx3: Rasmussen has the figures for how many of us would prefer that Congress start all over again to reform healthcare

UPDATEx4: Dick Morris has a very good article on how the Republicans should address this. I like it.

UPDATEx5: The invites are out.

Pattern of Ignoring Independent Analysis

Posted on February 11, 2010 | Leave a comment

For the first time by any administration in memory, the Obama budget forecast rejects the Medicare Trustees’ projections for long-run healthcare cost growth. Why would the White House do this?

Read the whole thing. The 2011 Budget has rigged the Healthcare economic assumptions.

Pro-Life Groups Illegally Investigated

Posted on February 11, 2010 | Leave a comment

By the government AND the police. For absolutely no reason at all.

DHS admitted it. Destroyed all its assessment copies. But shared with Wisconsin’s intel and local police force. The police force kept its copy but won’t release it to affected parties.

Read the whole thing. Still think the country is in the best of hands?

UPDATE: Anti-Tea Party Web Site Part of Scheme to Funnel Funds

Posted on February 10, 2010 | Leave a comment

A seemingly grassroots organization that’s mounted an online campaign to counter the tea party movement is actually the front end of an elaborate scheme that funnels funds — including sizable labor union contributions — through the offices of a prominent Democratic party lawyer.

Read more … and be informed.

Shady and dishonest for sure, but not illegal???? Criminy. It should be. It needs to be.

UPDATE: Via Instapundit. FOX has the list of donors. AFSCME is one of them. They gave $9.9M within one year, government money, union dues, to fend off Tea Party protesters.
