AMERICA CHEERS FOR SCOTT BROWN |

Congratulations to the new Senator-elect from Massachusetts!
Scott Brown's victory proves that the desire for real solutions transcends
notions of "blue state" and "red state". Americans agree that we need to hold
our politicians accountable and bring common sense to D.C.
Recent elections have taught us that when a party in power loses its way, the
American people will hold them accountable at the ballot box. Today under the
Democrats, government spending is up nearly 23 percent and unemployment is
higher than it's been in a quarter of a century.
For the past year they've built a record of broken promises,
fat cat bailouts, closed-door meetings with lobbyists, sweetheart deals for
corporate cronies, and midnight votes
on weekends for major legislation that wasn't even read. The good citizens of Massachusetts
reminded Democrats not to take them for granted.

OBAMA IN A FLAT SPIN |
|
|

Written by Jack Kelly

Wednesday, 20 January 2010 |
Those few pilots who've survived one can tell you
it's extremely difficult to recover from a flat spin.
Unlike normal spins, in which the nose of the
aircraft is pointed down, in a flat spin the nose is pointed up -- rather like
the noses of Washington Democrats toward the hoi polloi who attend TEA
parties. This makes the controls unresponsive, and the airplane falls
from the sky like a leaf falling from a tree.
The Obama administration is in a flat spin.
No president in the history of polling has tumbled so far in a single year from
the lofty heights he enjoyed on the day of his inauguration. But as
"change you can believe in" morphed into socialism you must pay for, the
administration stalled out and tumbled earthward.
It's clear now this president has made one of the
greatest miscalculations in American political history.

A PRESIDENT WHO CARES MORE ABOUT PROTECTING HIMSELF THAN HIS COUNTRY |

There is a silver lining for Democrats in the
Brown cloud that has descended upon them. It's distracted attention from
testimony revealing that the intelligence failures with regard to the Christmas
bomber were more appalling than we'd been told.
Yesterday (1/20), as panicked Democrats wondered
what Scott Brown's stunning win in the Massachusetts senate race portends for
them, four senior intelligence officials testified before the Senate Homeland
Security Committee and the Senate Judiciary Committee about the interrogation,
such as it was, of Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the Nigerian who had tried to
blow up a Northwest Air Lines flight with a bomb built into his underwear.
The officials were Homeland Security Secretary
Janet Napolitano, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Admiral Dennis Blair,
National Counterterrorism Center Chairman Michael Leiter, and FBI Director
Robert Mueller. All three stated
they weren't consulted before the
decision was made to treat Mr. Abdulmutallab as a criminal defendant.
That
decision was made by a senior official at the Justice Department who the Obama
administration is unwilling to identify.

HOW OBAMA IS ENCOURAGING ISLAMIC JIHAD |
|
|

Written by Tawfik Hamid

Thursday, 21 January 2010 |
The
rising cases of home-grown Islamist Radicalism in the US and the several terror plots that were discovered in 2009 in the US are alarming.
The
five Moslem students who went to Pakistan to wage Jihad against their own country, the Fort Hood
Massacre, and the latest Christmas airline terror attempt are just a few
examples of many.
In
trying to understand this trend in the first year of the current
Administration, one should question whether some actions of President Obama are
perceived in a way that is encouraging the Jihadists to intensify their attacks
on the US.
Firstly,
from a cultural perspective, the Arab world resonates with appearances of
strength and weakness. Some
of the actions of President Obama that could have been perceived as weakness by
the Jihadists include:

WHY HIGHER DEFICITS CAUSE HIGHER UNEMPLOYMENT |
|
|
|
Written by Richard Rahn

Thursday, 21 January 2010 |
"So what?" is the implicit expression of much
of the Washington political class when it comes to spending and taxing. The
consequences of Washington's fiscal irresponsibility are not evident to many in
the media and electorate - yet. But the pain will come - and it will hit almost
every American.
Last week, I explained how government deficits are
strangling necessary capital formation. The following describes the impact on
job creation and growth, and next week, I will present a way out of the mess.
This past week, the White House claimed that the
stimulus bill "saved 2 million jobs," but just before the stimulus
bill was passed, the administration said the unemployment rate would peak at 8
percent with the stimulus bill and 9 percent without it.
Now, we have both the stimulus bill and an unemployment
rate of more than 10 percent, which shows that the White House is
developmentally challenged when it comes to basic arithmetic.

THE MIDNIGHT RIDE OF SCOTT BROWN |

Written by John McCormack

Wednesday, 20 January 2010 |
Listen my children to a feat of renown--
The midnight ride of Scott P. Brown.
On the nineteenth of January, in Twenty-Ten,
Hardly a man will forget just when
Obamacare came crashing down.
Scott said to his friend, "If Senator Kennedy dies,
I'll fight for his seat--for the people's seat.
I'll ask my fellow Bay Staters to rise
And the liberal establishment to defeat.
Martha Coakley will try her luck;
But I will turn to my trusty truck,
Ready to ride and spread the alarm
Through every Middlesex village and farm,
For the country folk to be up and to arm."

HALF-FULL REPORT 01/15/10 |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler
|

Friday, 15 January 2010 |
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the moonbats to figure
out how to blame Bush for the Haiti
earthquake. Note their arguments in the Puffington
Host.
It's all Bush's fault because he supposedly engineered the
2004 rebellion that overthrew Haiti's fantastically corrupt Marxist dictator
Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and that Bush had all US aid to Haiti channeled through
private aid organizations and not through bottomlessly corrupt government
officials. They actually claim this.
This was quickly followed by media moonbat Keith
Olbermann of MSNBC arguing that the disaster in Haiti
is why the US
needs ObamaCare. You can trust the Left
to never let a crisis go to political waste.
Here's something to focus on during the Haitian horror: the humanity of Judeo-Christian values. Look down the full
list of countries, companies, and organizations (current as of today 1/15/10) providing aid to Haiti
or an abbreviated summary of the list here.
First,
note that with the exception of miniscule aid from Turkey
(an emergency management expert and a psychologist), not one single Moslem country is providing a dime. It is one of Mohammed's five requirements to
be a Moslem that you contribute to charity - for other Moslems. People who aren't Moslem aren't really people
at all, they are sub-human infidels, kafrs,
not deserving of charity.

THE COMING DEMOCRAT IMPLOSION |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler
|
|
Thursday, 14 January 2010 |
For all their power-grabbing fascist arrogance, the
Democrats in Washington are
coming to resemble Mack Sennett's bumbling-fumbling Keystone Kops more with
each passing day.
Republicans in Washington
are in a certain kind of awe over the Dems' performance. Walk around the halls of Capitol Hill. You don't need name tags to identify the Pubs
from the Dems. The former are walking
with zest and smiling cheerfully - except when they cast a glance of astonished
puzzlement at the latter shuffling dejectedly along and refusing to look at
their cheerier colleagues in the eye.
How could everything go to hell so quickly? That's the question both are asking
themselves. It is a mystery to
both.
"I guess we really are in a state of shock and awe over what
they have done to themselves," says a buddy of mine who's chief of staff to a
principal GOP Senator. "I just hope we
learn the right lesson from it."
"You think the TeaParty folks are mad at the
Pelosi-Reid-Obama Gang?" he asked me rhetorically. That's just anger in a teapot compared to the
cauldron of hate boiling the Left. One
by one, he listed the Dem constituencies that are in a state of disgusted
rage.

THE DEMOCRAT LEGACY OF SLAVERY, SECESSION, SEGREGATION, AND SOCIALISM |
|
|
|
Written by Allen West
|
|
Wednesday, 13 January 2010 |
The revelation of
Senator Harry Reid's comments referencing "negro talk" is just
indicative of the true sentiment elitist liberals, and indeed the Democrat
party, have toward black Americans.
The history of the
Democrat party is one of slavery, secession, segregation, and now socialism.
One can only
imagine the insanity and media outrage if Reid's quote had come from a
member of the Republican party. If
President Obama had any courage he would demand Reid step down as Senate
Majority Leader, and discontinue any support for his Senate reelection...
notice I said "if". I am quite sure the Soros money which
elevated Obama to the position of President has bought his servitude.
I am running to
represent Florida's 22nd Congressional
District. Why am I running for US
Congress as a Republican? Simple. I would rather
stand proudly and be called "an Uncle Tom and a sellout" than
lose my self-esteem and be considered an inferior by liberals.
I am not just some articulate, clean, well spoken negro.
I am an American warrior, Congressional candidate, and shall never submit to
the collective progressive ideal of inferiority.

RESTORING FAITH AND BALANCE IN MASSACHUSETTS |
|
|
|
Written by Scott Brown
|
|
Friday, 15 January 2010 |
I didn't grow up with all the advantages in life. My mom was on welfare for
a time, but I had the support of a loving family and good friends and
neighbors. I don't have all the advantages in this race either, and that's fine
by me. Being the underdog has taught me to work harder, and to appreciate the
opportunities of our state and our country.
I'm running to represent Massachusetts
in the United States Senate because more of our people are unemployed today
than ever before. Public debt has reached $12 trillion and counting, and Washington
politicians want to borrow trillions more. Terrorists want to strike our
country again, and they will do so if we let down our guard. We have fighting
forces in two theaters of war, and those men and women need our support.
My plan for the economy is simple: an across-the-board tax cut - in the
tradition of John F. Kennedy - for families and businesses that will increase
investment and lead to immediate new job growth. My opponent will
raise taxes.
Amid all our domestic challenges, our nation is still at war with radical
Islamic terrorists determined to destroy our way of life. My opponent would accord such terrorists all the rights our Constitution
grants to citizens. I will treat them as enemy combatants who should face
military justice.

A PERFECT STORM IN MASSACHUSETTS? |
|
|
|
Written by Jack Kelly
|
|
Wednesday, 13 January 2010 |
It is rare in the history of our politics for an
election for an office other than president to have profound consequences for
the future of our nation. But one such election is next Tuesday January
19th, when voters in Massachusetts will select someone to fill the two remaining years of the
U.S. Senate term of the late Sen. Ted Kennedy.
Massachusetts is the bluest state in the nation.
A yellow dog running on the Democrat line ought to be able to defeat any
Republican by at least 20 points. A perfect storm is required to elect a Republican
statewide in Massachusetts. But for this this election -- which is more
important than almost every other Senate race in history -- that perfect storm may have formed.

OUR FUTURE OF HIGHER INFLATION AND SLOWER GROWTH |
|
|
|
Written by Richard Rahn
|
|
Thursday, 14 January 2010 |
Even
though the government is running massive deficits, interest rates and inflation
are low. So, what's the problem? The following discussion will clarify the
problem.
The
United States is now in a situation in which the government is taking a very
large share (40 percent) of the nation's savings to finance its deficit
spending, leaving a diminished pool of capital to meet the needs of both
families and businesses.
You
might be thinking, if there are not enough savings available for investment
needs, why are interest rates so low? The answer is that the Federal Reserve
(Fed) has been creating money by loaning the banks nearly free money and buying
mortgages from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
Soon,
as even the Fed acknowledges, it will have to start selling the mortgages it
owns to private parties and increase short-term interest rates to avoid
saddling the country with high inflation. In sum, inflation cannot be avoided
without a big increase in both long- and short-term interest rates.

THE ANTIDOTE TO ARROGANCE |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Joel Wade
|
|
Friday, 15 January 2010 |
The Democrats are
engaged in an earth-shaking tragedy, and, like many a Greek tragic figure, they
are going along either 1) blind to their situation, or 2) vaguely aware yet
unable to stop the momentum of the drama.
The Ancient Greeks called this Hubris,
the overconfidence and arrogance which leads, fairly predictably, to a tragic
fall.
Why do we have to suffer such strange and predictable tragedy? What is it
about us that keeps drawing many of us - in large and small ways - down this
tragic road?
We can be thankful that the human propensity toward arrogant overconfidence
may be undermining the Progressive threat to our Republic. But as Jack writes
about in The
Coming Democrat Implosion, the Republicans also fell victim to this very
same trap in the last decade.
If Scott Brown wins the Massachusetts Senate seat on January 19, if there is
a Conservative victory in November, if there is a Conservative victory in 2012,
the same exhilaration that brought supposedly Conservative Republicans to
enable our present very dangerous abuse of government power will replay itself
again and again.
It could be the undoing of our Republic.
