Last week, President Obama announced that the increase (from 9.7% to 9.9%) in the unemployment rate was very encouraging news. Well, a billboard that has popped up on the Niagara Thruway suggests that not everyone is so sanguine about the job situation:

MOLLOHAN LOSS WAS ABOUT OBAMACARE, NOT CORRUPTION
The party line from the Democrats and the MSM (but I repeat myself) on Alan Mollohan’s defeat in his West Virginia primary is that his corruption caught up with him. And Mollohan is indeed corrupt, which explains why some conservatives have fallen in line with the Dem-MSM meme.
But what really brought about the much-deserved defeat of this […]
IF YOU ARE GENUINELY SURPRISED BY THIS, PLEASE DON’T REPRODUCE (OR VOTE)
Well, the Obamacare cost estimates promulgated by the White House and congressional Democrats before the final House vote were good for a few laughs, but now the party’s over:
The Congressional Budget Office today released an analysis of discretionary spending in the law, and found that those costs will “probably exceedâ€? $115 billion over 10 years. At a […]
KATHLEEN SEBELIUS UNVEILS $1 BILLION VOTE-BUYING SCHEME
We learned today how the Obama administration plans to soothe seniors who have been seething over Obamacare. Kathleen Sebelius has issued a “progress report” to Congress outlining how Obamacare has been “bringing down costs,” and one of its passages (4th paragraph, page 3) reads as follows:
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services plans to issue $250 rebates checks to Medicare beneficiaries … […]
OBAMA COMPARES REFORM DEBATE TO THE FIGHT AGAINST LYNCHING & SEGREGATION
News of this breathtaking assertion has been swamped (perhaps not concidentally) by coverage of Obama’s SCOTUS pick. But, if you haven’t seen it, you’re in for a demonstration of world-class chutzpah. Affecting to pay homage to a recently deceased Hampton University faculty member, he actually conflates his own tawdry, Chicago-style wheeling and dealing with the […]
KAGAN NOMINATION IS GOOD NEWS FOR THE CONSTITUTIONAL CHALLENGE TO OBAMACARE
As everyone in the galaxy knows by now, President Obama has nominated Elena Kagan to replace John Paul Stevens on the Supreme Court. Progressive queasiness about Kagan, combined with the fact that Stevens has been the most robotically liberal member of the Court, suggests that Kagan’s nomination could be good news for the constitutional challenge to […]
IS THE AMA TRYING TO MUZZLE YOUR DOCTOR?
Hal Scherz, a pediatric surgeon on the faculty of Emory University Medical School, believes the answer is to this question is a resounding YES, and he has written a great piece on the subject in the WSJ:
The American Medical Association is putting the doctors of America on notice. A major cheerleader for ObamaCare, the organization […]
ALLEN WEST SLAMS STEELE FOR STUPID COMMENTS ON GOP HISTORY
GOP Chairman Michael Steele recently brayed that Republicans have given African-Americans no reason to vote for them, and West points out that the remark was historically illiterate:
There is a great history connecting the Republican party to the black community and I think that Chairman Steele should do a little bit more research before he goes out spouting […]
OBAMA APPARATCHIKS RECLASSIFY INTERNET TO GIVE FCC CONTROL OVER WEB
If you thought health care and Wall Street were the only areas of endeavor over which the Obots want control, think again. Last month, a federal court told the FCC it has no authority to regulate the internet. But our Beltway masters were never going to allow their Orwellian “net neutrality” project to be so easily thwarted:
This week the Obama Administration […]
VIDEO: PELOSI SAYS “THANK GOD” FOR NUNS WHO HELPED GET OBAMACARE PASSED
Ignoring the fact that every pro-life organization on the planet has denounced her and her accomplices for passing a “reformâ€? bill that provides federal funding for abortion, she declares that Obamacare is “life affirming.” Madam Speaker must be on drugs (she kinda sounds like it). This bill isn’t even life affirming for adults, much less unborn babies:
We believe that […]
