I am sadly disappointed by former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist.
For some reason, Frist is promoting forcing people to purchase health insurance, which is the first step down the road to a fully government-run healthcare system. Once you have the threat of fines and/or jail time for not purchasing insurance, it’s not that big a [...]

It may only be a small part of one of the competing ObamaCare bills, but it’s a victory nonetheless, and I’ll take my victories where and when they occur:
WASHINGTON—The Senate Finance Committee rejected amendments Tuesday that would add a government-run health-insurance plan to the committee’s health-care legislation, but debate over whether to adopt a public [...]

And now the professional rabble-rousers are themselves being protested:
A group of 30 protesters stood outside a San Diego ACORN office, alerting passerby’s to their discontent with the community organization groups venture into criminal activity.
Since the BigGovernment.com tapes were released a week ago, San Diego Association of Community Organization Reform Now (ACORN) office has been targeted [...]

This sort of speaks for itself:
Democratic political committees have seen a decline in their fundraising fortunes this year, a result of complacency among their rank-and-file donors and a de facto boycott by many of their wealthiest givers, who have been put off by the party’s harsh rhetoric about big business.
The trend is a marked reversal [...]

The U.S. dollar continues to take a dive in value, but why? I thought our recession was slowing. I thought there was light at the end of the economic tunnel. What is going on?
