The incomparable Mark Corallo sends a love note to Barry O. How about a mortgage break for a hard-working taxpayer who doesn’t live beyond his means? Or do the benefits of Barry’s paradise accrue only to the poor and/or just those rich guys who give Obama a nice back rub? Read Corallo’s piece. Great stuff.

The poor and rich, corrupt guys like Barack Obama and his cronies; sounds like your typical totalitarian state.

Liberal Reader| 3.29.10 @ 5:35PM

Mr Hillyer! You sound like a Democrat today! Or better -- you sound Democrat in SPIRIT.

What's next?

Calling for an increase of taxes on the wealthiest Americans to help pay for spending on infrastructure, energy, and education?

Because then we'd be talking serious Democratism.

Folks,
I just got a chuckle...again...from Lib reader.

He does not quite understand that we here try very hard to be balanced and thoughtful in our approach to our country and our fellow Americans, regardless of "color".

Well, we don't always achieve balance, and goodness knows any loony is allowed to post here. Nevertheless,
most of us regular readers/lurkers do try.

Lib reader cannot even "define" communism. I asked him/her to on Friday..............SILENCE.

(ANY CREDIBILITY FLUSHED)

Quin,
funny article. Thanks.

Ken,

Frothy Reader didn't even know that Mussolini was a socialist!

His idea of how the world works, comes from the marxist propaganda he was brainwashed with, by his college professors

Democratism = Redistribution of wealth; or as Obama put it to Joe the plumber, "Spread the wealth around."

Pretty soon we'll reach a tipping point and you will have killed the 'golden goose'.

Nick| 3.29.10 @ 6:54PM

SoCon,

And Frothy Reader will kill the "golden goose" while he is goose-steppin'!

SoCon| 3.29.10 @ 7:08PM

HA!! The troll's goin' to swear at you, Nick.

Little goose-stepper Fascist Screeder--makes him crazy.

Ken (Old Texican)| 3.29.10 @ 7:03PM

SoCon,
Good reminder.

Lib lipreader et al simply cannot grasp that simple point. He/her get to enjoy all the things we greedy capitalists have provided him, (education, a computer, freedom of speech etc.)
...and he spits at us. whew dumb, huh?

SoCon| 3.29.10 @ 7:12PM

Lib Lipreader--lol.
Yeah; stay home and study while your friends are partying, work hard, sacrifice and do the right thing--and you're 'greedy'. World's turned upside down these days. It's a real shame.

SoCon, Plan B now!

SoCon| 3.29.10 @ 10:23PM

Now? We need to talk.

Mark should obtain one of Barry's new, extended Pell Grants and teach a coarse in college entitled DEMOCRATIC PARTY WEALTH REDISTRIBUTION 101!!!!!

Dear Barry… « Time for Thorns links to this page. Here’s an excerpt:

progressive habit of rewarding the feckless for their bad behavior  and the uber-rich for their ability to fund liberal campaigns,  while punishing those who play by the rules.   Read Quin Hillyer’s intro,  then click on the link to Mark’s column. This is about yet another round of mortgage modifications,  but it can be applied across the board. Written by timeforthorns March 31, 2010 at 10:37 am…

This illustrates the awkward position red- and purple-district Democrats find themselves in after a year of tough votes forced by the Obama administration and the congressional Democratic leadership. canada goose another ACORN revelation (presumably from the O'Keefe/Giles video duo) is coming tomorrow, and he characterized it as "devastating.
