New Black Panthers: The Dumbest SOB's On The Planet
Priceless.
There's a black American president for the first time in history - and the new black panther party is ready to rumble with the Tea Party movement on the DC Mall in September.
This dumb-ass couldn't do a better job of marginalizing his group if he tried.
Of course, Obama is trapped after having protected them with his DOJ.
And a racial confrontation is the last thing Democrats want in September before the mid-terms.
This is so good for the GOP, the idiot must be a plant.
But the morons in the MSM...and much of the american left, tell us it's the "maniac TeaPartiers" who we should fear.

"Anyway, toward the end of today’s article Laffer has a stunning proposal:
Any government program that would reduce unemployment has to make working more attractive for both employer and employee. Since late 2007 the federal government has spent somewhere around $3.6 trillion to stimulate the economy.
That is a lot of money.
My suggestion would have been to take all $3.6 trillion and declare a federal tax holiday for 18 months.
No income tax, no corporate profits tax, no capital gains tax, no estate tax, no payroll tax (FICA) either employee or employer, no Medicare or Medicaid taxes, no federal excise taxes, no tariffs, no federal taxes at all, which would have reduced federal revenues by $2.4 trillion annually.
Can you imagine where employment would be today?
How does a 2.5% unemployment rate sound?
It’s a valid point.
Yes, it is.
In fact, it makes perfect sense.
However, there’s no room for “income redistribution,” graft, rewarding political allies and punishing political enemies, or increasing the power and control of the federal government in it.
Therefore there is no chance in hell of it ever happening, certainly not under any Socialist Democrat administration, and especially not under the Obamarxist administration.
Sadly, not under a GOP administration, either."

The Rush Limbaugh challenge
The Rush Limbaugh challenge Washington Examiner
"I have found a fascinating phenomenon among liberals.
They feel free to harshly criticize Rush Limbaugh yet rarely, if ever, listen to him.
And when they do hear him it is in carefully selected brief excerpts or in second- or third-hand accounts.
This leads to a lot of misconceptions on their part."

American Thinker: Boring Barry
"Much worse for Obama than becoming unlikeable is becoming boring -- and he will become more and more boring every day.
Why?
Marxists like Obama have nothing new to say.
The whole sum of human problems, according to the goateed gurus of radical socialism on college campuses, is the unfair distribution of wealth, and the only solution to this 'problem' is coercive redistribution."

Leftist groups plan a riot as Oakland boards up downtown
Zombie » Leftist groups plan a riot as Oakland boards up downtown
"Oakland is boarded up.
Fearing the inevitable riots that will erupt if ex-transit cop Johannes Mehserle isn’t found guilty of murder in the Oscar Grant case, business owners around Oakland’s downtown and other areas of the city have been busy nailing plywood boards over their shop windows to minimize damage and looting.
This essay documents the pre-riot preparations, and also examines to what extent the expected riot is being fomented by left-wing radical groups."

Inadequate Spending?
Inadequate Spending? NetRight Daily
"Specifically Krugman blasted several world leaders (although obviously not the leader of the “free world”) for what he called “preaching the need for belt-tightening when the real problem is inadequate spending.”
And no, that’s not a typo.
He actually said “inadequate spending.”
According to these “New Keynesians,” the unsustainable government growth that preceded the most recent economic downturn apparently wasn’t enough.
Nor was the unprecedented barrage of bailouts, taxpayer-funded guarantees, freshly-printed greenbacks and deficit spending that Washington threw at the problem over the last two years.
And let’s not forget what has been heaped on top of all that “stimulus” spending — a $2.5 trillion socialized medicine plan that represents one of the largest expansions of entitlement spending in American history.
Amazingly, despite the clear failure of the “stimulus” — and despite the fact that excess entitlement spending is what has driven the eurozone to its present precariousness — the rallying cry of these big government backers appears to be “we have only just begun to spend.”
Let’s examine the efficacy of that mantra"

"The advocate estimates this will affect 40 million businesses, including 26 million sole-proprietorships.
And why is this tax reporting stuff even in a health-care bill?
To help fund it, that's why.
To help Pelosi and Reid and Obama get the faux deficit score they needed, the measure is expected to raise $13.7 billion over ten years — that's before administrative and discretionary costs, which will add another $115 billion or so to the bill's official price tag in the next decade."

EDITORIAL: The patriotism gap - Washington Times
"A new survey shows that Americans, on average, are growing more patriotic.
Among some predominantly liberal groups, however, patriotism is on the decline, and the gap between the left and the American public is widening.
The two sides of the chasm reflect two distinct views of the United States."

The egregious, craven tactics of the New Black Panther Party Klan were caught on video.

FuturePundit: Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment Delays In Ontario: "If your situation is described in this report consider a trip south of the border along with some cash or credit card to see an American specialist.
TORONTO, Ont., July 6, 2010 — Nearly 60 per cent of Ontarians with rheumatoid arthritis — an autoimmune disease that causes chronic inflammation of the joints — were not seen by a specialist within a one year period to treat the debilitating disease, according to a new study. Even more concerning is that women of child-bearing age are less likely to see a specialist than women 45 or older, say researchers from St. Michael's Hospital, the Institute for Clinical and Evaluative Sciences (ICES), and Women's College Hospital.
A Canadian friend (living in southern Ontario at the time) complained to me for years that he couldn't get a general practitioner. Without a general practitioner he couldn't get a referral to a specialist. He got his medical care by going to emergency wards. This all made me very unkeen on Canadian health care as a model for the US."

Baucus's office did not respond to requests for comment Wednesday. Baucus is the first Democrat to criticize the recess appointment, which Republicans have blasted.
“As if shoving a trillion-dollar government takeover of healthcare down the throat of a disapproving American public wasn't enough, apparently the Obama administration intends to arrogantly circumvent the American people yet again by recess-appointing one of the most prominent advocates of rationed healthcare to implement their national plan,' Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said in a statement."

CNN Editor Fired for Saying She Has "Respect" for Hezbollah Cleric The Weekly Standard: "In a followup blog post last night, Nasr wrote that it 'was an error of judgment for me to write such a simplistic comment and I'm sorry because it conveyed that I supported Fadlallah's life's work. That's not the case at all.'
She explained that she knew about all the wicked aspects of Fadlallah's life--saying she even 'lost family members' in the barracks bombing--and was simply referring to the fact that she respected Fadlallah for his opposition to 'honor' killings and beating women. But saying you respect Fadlallah for opposing murdering and beating (Muslim) women is almost like saying you respect Osama bin Laden for building day care centers.
