What's the SEIU up to, with Stern's 22 visits so far this year to the WH?
Oh no - not another government jobs bill
What the heck is wrong with From Dixie With Love?
The Decider, or The Ditherer?
Hasan's self-serving narrative of victimhood. Related: ABC News: Nidal Hasan & Followers of Islam Are the Real Victims (Video). Unbelievable. I guess those nuts who used to shoot up abortion clinics were the real victims too.
Related, from Dr. Sanity:
The key aspects of this psychobabble include an overemphasis on "self-esteem" at the expense of self-control and personal responsibility; an attitude that practically worships "feelings" at the expense of reason and truth; a fundamental misunderstanding about stress and the role of stress in life (i.e., that "all stress is bad", for example; and failing to appreciate that stress, when it is acknowledged and dealt with in healthy ways can enhance maturity and psychological health); and finally the glorification of victimhood and the celebration of unhealthy narcissism and the narcissists who exhibit it.
How is the idea of other people not paying for your abortions an assault on women's rights?
Employer-Provided Medicine Is Completely Illogical. Yes it is. It was a fluke of history.
Reid wants to muscle health care through ASAP. Will threats and bribes do the job? Related, via Vanderleun:
Yesterday 4 Deputy US Marshals were detailed to serve an arrest warrant
on Philip Gordon 63 of Carroll County in west Georgia. Mr Gordon
refused to allow the Marshals entrance to his gated property whereupon
the gate was breached using necessary force. During the process Mr
Gordon’s 2 Labrador retrievers charged the federal agents and were
dispatched. Mr Gordon refused to submit to arrest and brandished an
assault rifle accusing the Marshals of trespassing before retreating
into his home. The Marshals summoned backup from the local Carroll
County Sheriff’s office and two of the 6 responding deputies refused to
cooperate in serving the lawful warrant. They were immediately relieved
of duty. Additional backup of federal agents in the Atlanta field
offices of the FBI and BATFE surrounded the Gordon residence. Repeated
demands for Gordon to surrender went unheeded and chemical agents were
introduced into the structure. An hour later an unconscious Gordon was
taken into custody and booked into the Fulton county jail on the
warrant charging refusal to pay the $15,000.00 penalty for failure to
maintain a government approved medical insurance policy. -- Francis W. Porretto Leonidas - Eternity Road
Malaise Polls:
AP called it a "funk." The Pew Research Center describes the mood of the nation as "glum" in its new survey (2,000 Americans, 10/28-11/8, +/- 3%), which offers a significant warning for incumbents in both parties in the 2010 midterms.
Well, it's no wonder, with promises of higher taxes, bigger government, and record-making unemployment in our future.
