GETTING HIT
Re: Philip Klein's Now Comes the Hard Part:

Not only is the Baucus Bill a formula for uncontrolled spending, but there is another major problem. The employer mandate is very poorly crafted, in that it is enforced based on the SIZE of the company by number of employees.

This means that a large but nearly bankrupt company would get hit while some very small but extremely profitable firm skates by.
-- John D. Froelich

IT STINKS
Re: Peter Ferrara's Ruination From Obama-Baucus:

I am 88 years old and on Medicare and also a supplement policy I pay for. Even so, neither Medicare nor my supplement pay out more than I pay in. With Medicare Part B, Part D, and my supplement, I pay in around $5,000.00 per year and my medical expenses including dentistry, prescriptions, and Dr. Visits run $4,000.00 per year. I don't smoke, consume a glass of wine each day, watch my diet, and do some exercise which I enjoy doing.

Also, when I was working I invested in the tax exempt medical fund which I hope will help pay for any catastrophic illness I am sure to contract some day. And now my government is going to shovel as much medical expense of others on me just because I managed my health care as best I could during my earlier years. The Obamacare care stinks. My only satisfaction is that I did not vote for him.
-- Warren Lyckman

MOVING TO THE LEFT
Re: Jeffrey Lord's The Reagan Prize:

I'm leery of say, starting some group to hand out prizes in Ronald Reagan's name. There's the observation that any organization will inevitably move to the left. The Ford Foundation, the MacArthur Foundation...and, yes, the Nobel Prize committees. Eventually things pass out of the hands of the founders, or anybody who knew Reagan... and eventually things pass into the hands of those who often have different ideas.

You wouldn't want a prize named for Ronald Reagan handed out to the ultra-liberal activists of thirty or forty years from now, would you?

KEEPING BLACKS DOWN
Re: John R. Guardiano's Personal Fouls:

Once again, the black leftists cry "foul" when it suits their needs. A Rush caller yesterday, who was black, and lives in Detroit, bemoans the fact that black leaders, like Jackson and Sharpton have allied with the white liberals to keep the black man down. Yet, blacks continue to follow the liars like Jackson and Sharpton, and vote in the welfare programs which have stunted family growth and security in such formerly great cities like Detroit and Chicago. Why are these cities, and many others under Democratic control for generations, bankrupt and with NO future? I can't all be George Bush's fault. No, but the almighty Obama, who proclaims to be "post-racial" has a racist attorney general, and in many ways uses the race card in a more subtle way than even Jackson and Sharpton.

Don't forget that Sharpton once incited a group of his "followers" to kill a Korean grocer inside the grocer's store. This, it seems to me, was "the reverend's" biggest "hit."
-- J.H. Insley

A BUFFOON
Re: Lisa Fabrizio's The Friend of My Enemy Is Who?:

Thanks for this decent and honest report on a good man who took the heat for 8 years because the liberals did not get their own way! Al Gore would have been the worst President of USA EVER! The man is a buffoon.

Unfortunately for this (once?) great country, the voters of the Left will re-elect the politicians of the Left to solve the problems created by the politicians of the Left. Thank you, American educational system for proving that critical thinking is not necessary, as long as one knows how to mark an X on a ballot.

From an interview with Lebron James and his ability to dunk:
If there was one guy on the planet you could dunk on, who would it be? That teacher?
If it doesn’t have to be a basketball player, George W. Bush. I would dunk on his ass, break the rim, and shatter the glass.
