Why aren't Democrats running on health care ?
With the ever important November mid-term elections upcoming one has to wonder why the Democrats aren't running on the Health care issue.
We were told it is good for us, that it will save money, that it will not add to the deficit and that once we see it in action we will sing its praises.
So then WHY aren't the Democrats singing its praises now ? Well, as Chris Cillizza of the Washington Post points out:
Perhaps if these Democrats had read the Health care bill before they voted on it they would have been able to justify it now as a campaign issue. Let's face it folks, if you don't know what's in the bill how can you seriously run on it, especially when it is so unpopular.

"Sometimes a picture really is worth 1,000 words -- and this is one of those cases. Here's a look, courtesy of Pollster.com, of public opinion regarding health care."

GM Resuming Political Donations ?
Recently GM (Government Motors) gave $90,500 to candidates running in the current election cycle, according to Federal Election Commission records.
While it's certainly not unusual for big companies like GM to spend on political campaigns, GM is a company majority-owned by the U.S. government, roughly 61%, thanks to the handout (oops, I mean bailout) from the US taxpayers.
According to company spokesman Greg Martin:
Mr. Martins justification for the donations doesn't hold water. First, GM already benefited from the political process, they received US taxpayer dollars to bail them out, via Congress, and now they just donated some of that money back to the very politicians that voted to give it to them !
Second, the GM's political action committee is "an effective means for our employees to pool their resources and have their collective voice heard" statement calls on me to question what the UAW is for, after all they represent the auto workers.
What a country, Congress bails out companies with US taxpayer money and those companies contribute some of that money back into the politician's tills, only in America !

According to company spokesman Greg Martin:
"As we've emerged as a new company, we're not going to sit on the sidelines as our competitors and other industries who have PACs are participating in the political process," Mr. Martin said. He called GM's political action committee is "an effective means for our employees to pool their resources and have their collective voice heard."So, let me get this straight, we bailout GM, they sell cars and then they contribute to the political campaigns that voted to bail them out with taxpayer money !

Senate again fails to advance campaign finance bill with 'no' vote from Snowe - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room
Senate again fails to advance campaign finance bill with 'no' vote from Snowe - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room
Senate Democrats again failed to advance stalled campaign finance legislation on Thursday, dealing another blow to the bill's chances of final passage.
The legislation, known as the Disclose Act, is intended as a response to a Supreme Court decision earlier this year that relaxed limits on political spending by corporations and unions. A cloture vote Thursday afternoon to move forward on the legislation failed 59-39. Sixty votes were needed for passage.
Centrist GOP Sen. Olympia Snowe's (Maine) announcement earlier Thursday that she would again vote against the legislation, which came after she'd cast doubt on its constitutionality, virtually confirmed the second cloture vote would fail. A previous cloture vote on the legislation, in August, failed on a 57-41 vote.

“I am deeply disappointed by the unanimous Republican blockade in the Senate of the Disclose Act, a critical piece of legislation that would control the flood of special interest money into our elections," President Obama said in a statement Thursday afternoon. "Today’s decision by a partisan minority to block this legislation is a victory for special interests and U.S. corporations – including foreign-controlled ones – who are now allowed to spend unlimited money to fill our airwaves, mailboxes and phone lines right up until Election Day."

Independents As Upset As Republicans, Poll Shows; Politics Is Making Them Angry | CNSnews.com
Independents As Upset As Republicans, Poll Shows; Politics Is Making Them Angry | CNSnews.com
More bad news for Democrats clinging to control of Congress: Independent voters are nearly as grumpy as Republicans about politics this year.
In an Associated Press-GfK Poll this month, 58 percent of independents and 60 percent of Republicans said politics is making them angry, compared with 31 percent of Democrats who said so. About 7 in 10 independents and Republicans were disgusted, compared with 4 in 10 Democrats, and independents and Republicans were likelier than Democrats to be disappointed, depressed and frustrated.
As for positive emotions, independents and Republicans were half as likely as Democrats to be inspired and less prone to be hopeful, excited and proud.

National Security Experts: Shariah Law Is 'Preeminent Totalitarian Threat of Our Time' | CNSnews.com
A team of national security experts assembled by the conservative Center for Security Policy issued a report last week warning of that Shariah law is the "preeminent totalitarian threat of our time." The group drew a distinction between Muslims who embrace Shariah law as the comprehensive model for governing all human society and those who view it as a reference point for personal behavior but not for the conduct of government and the state.

Dana Milbank - Do-nothing Democrats
Dana Milbank - Do-nothing Democrats
They still have their largest majority in decades, but the Democrats have succumbed to paralysis in the closing days of the legislative session. Congress has yet to pass a budget or a single one of the annual spending bills. Plans to spur the economy with tax cuts await action. Senate Democrats, faced with a GOP filibuster, have now punted on immigration reform and repeal of the "don't ask, don't tell" policy on gays in the military. Meanwhile, House Democrats have so little on their schedule that their first vote of the week is coming at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, when Americans are most of the way through their workweeks.
Among the items they'll consider: H.R. 1545, "Expressing support for designation of the week beginning on the third Monday in September as 'National Postdoc Appreciation Week.' " And: H.R. 4387, naming the building at 100 North Palafox St. in Pensacola, Fla., the "Winston E. Arnow Federal Building."
"Your schedule," Linda Scott of PBS remarked to Hoyer at Tuesday morning's meeting, "looks pretty light." She asked whether Democrats are "telling you they need to be back home, rather than naming post offices?"
The Democrats are unable to rally themselves around tax cuts for millions of Americans, and their leader is defending . . . postal namings. In fairness, they're not just talking about post offices: They're also talking about flags.
Over the past 20 months, Democrats have done a lot -- too much, the opposition says. But they don't want to talk about the achievements. The stimulus bill is unpopular; they're not getting credit for health-care legislation, financial reforms and many other accomplishments; and the spent majority can't limp out of town fast enough.

Republicans Gain Ground Among Independents
A new comprehensive national survey shows that independent voters—who voted for Barack Obama by a 52%-to-44% margin in the 2008 presidential election—are now moving strongly in the direction of the Republican Party. The survey, conducted by Douglas E. Schoen LLC on behalf of Independent Women's Voice in late August, raises the possibility of a fundamental realignment of independent voters and the dominance of a more conservative electorate.
Today, independents say they lean more toward the Republican Party than the Democratic Party, 50% to 25%, and that the Republican Party is closer to their views by 52% to 30%. This movement comes in spite of independents' generally negative views of the GOP—a majority of independents (54%) view the Republicans unfavorably, compared to 39% who have a favorable impression. (The poll also revealed that 48% of independents were either "sympathetic to or supporters of the tea party.")

Republicans will unveil their new 'Contract' on Thursday in Virginia - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room
Republicans will unveil their new 'Contract' on Thursday in Virginia - The Hill's Blog Briefing Room
Republicans will unveil their new "Contract with America" in Virginia on Thursday, less than two months before election day.
The GOP, which polls show has a strong chance of winning back the House this fall, is culling the list of election-year agenda items from its "America Speaking Out" program. A spokesman for that project confirmed House and Senate GOP leaders will introduce the new contract on Thursday.
The new contract, modeled after the 1994 "Contract with America" — credited with helping Republicans win the House in 1994, which they held until 2006—is intended to highlight what the Republican party would stand for if it were to return to power in Congress. For much of the last two years, Republicans have won points from voters chiefly by opposing the Obama administration's agenda.
GOP leaders have already hinted at some of the ideas that could be included. House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio), for instance, has called for a two-year freeze in tax rates and a reduction in spending to 2008 levels. President Obama and Democratic leaders want to extend most tax cuts, but would raise taxes on families with incomes above $250,000 annually and individuals who earn more than $200,000 a year.
Republicans have also pressed for repeal of the healthcare reform law, and for replacing it with new reforms. Some GOP figures have also called for repealing Wall Street reform.

Sharia in New Jersey: Muslim husband rapes wife, judge sees no crime because Islam forbids wives to refuse sex
Muhammad said: "If a husband calls his wife to his bed [i.e. to have sexual relation] and she refuses and causes him to sleep in anger, the angels will curse her till morning" (Bukhari 4.54.460).
He also said: "By him in Whose Hand lies my life, a woman can not carry out the right of her Lord, till she carries out the right of her husband. And if he asks her to surrender herself [to him for sexual intercourse] she should not refuse him even if she is on a camel's saddle" (Ibn Majah 1854).
And now a New Jersey judge sees no evidence that a Muslim committed sexual assault of his wife -- not because he didn't do it, but because he was acting on his Islamic beliefs:
"This court does not feel that, under the circumstances, that this defendant had a criminal desire to or intent to sexually assault or to sexually contact the plaintiff when he did. The court believes that he was operating under his belief that it is, as the husband, his desire to have sex when and whether he wanted to, was something that was consistent with his practices and it was something that was not prohibited."

Stimulus Roundup | OpenMarket.org
Stimulus Roundup OpenMarket.org
Most people doubt Congress’ ability to spend money wisely. The stimulus has given them some proof:
-$800,000 for an African genital-washing program.
-$700,000 to create computer software that can tell jokes.
-$40,000 for ten trash bins.
-$1.6 million to irrigate a golf course inTexas.
-Thousands of dollars to replace – twice – a sidewalk “that doesn’t front any homes or businesses, and leads into a ditch”
-300 truckloads of oyster shells.
Bonus non-stimulus spending: “ The Census spent $23,000 on a totem pole in Alaska. Census representative Hector Maldonado says the agency thought it was a great idea. The plan was to increase participation in Alaska, but despite the totem pole, participation dropped in the state by two percent from the last census.”

62% Say Congress Is Doing A Poor Job
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 62% of voters now rate Congress’ performance as poor, but that’s up six points from a month ago. Seventy-one percent (71%) felt that way in mid-February.
Now, 62% say that no matter how bad things are, Congress can always make them worse.
Although Democrats control both the Senate and the House, just 19% of Democratic voters think Congress is doing a good or excellent job, a view shared by only four percent (4%) of Republicans and seven percent (7%) of voters not affiliated with either major party.
