Scroll for updates…Kristof non-responds…holes remain…

Today, I did something that Pulitzer Prize-winning NYTimes columnist Nick Kristof apparently didn’t do: I talked to a spokesman at the Oregon Health Sciences University in Portland, Oregon.
I called them up after OHSU’s Dr. Johnny Delashaw left a comment about Kristof’s piece spotlighting the horrible plight of John Brodniak, an [...]

See update: Brodniak sob story debunked!

Nick Kristof is the recipient of not one, but two Pulitzer Prizes for journalism. He has traveled the world, writes critically acclaimed books, and counts Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie among his glamorous friends. He is also the author of what may quite possibly be the crappiest New York Times [...]

The final 220-215 roll call vote on passage of the House Dems’ government health care takeover bill is here.
And here is the 240-194 roll call vote on the Stupak amendment to extend the ban on federal abortion subsidies to Obamacare/Pelosicare.
Thanks to Doug Powers for filling in while I spoke at the Foundation for Life event [...]

Alston&Birds of a feather.

They are not giving up without a fight.
Via the Washington Times:
Fearful that they’re losing ground on immigration and health care, a group of House Democrats is pushing back and arguing that any health care bill should extend to all legal immigrants and allow illegal immigrants some access.
The Democrats, trying to stiffen their party’s spines on [...]

Here’s my July 22 column on Obamacare for illegal aliens, which spotlights how the S-CHIP expansion’s loosened verification standards open the barn door.
Here’s my August 17 blog post on how hospitals are buckling under the weight of illegal alien care costs — and why it’s time to ration health care for illegal aliens.
Here’s my August [...]

My syndicated column today digs a little deeper into President Obama’s September 8 speech to schoolchildren. The school guides now featured front and center on the www.ed.gov website were developed by the White House Teaching Fellows — a group which includes several activist educators as you’ll see below.
Downplaying academic achievement in favor of [...]

This video is spreading quickly across the Internet. In their own words, via Naked Emperor News, here are Barack Obama, Jan Schakowsky, and Barney Frank exposing the true aim of the “public option.” Yes, of course, it’s a Trojan Horse for government-run health care and the elimination of private industry. They’ve been telegraphing it since [...]

Obamacare for illegal aliens

Big Nanny Democrats want to ration health care for everyone in America – except those who break our immigration laws. Last week, the House Ways and Means Committee defeated an amendment that would have prevented illegal aliens from using the so-called “public health insurance option.” Every Democrat on [...]

Reuters reports that President Obama will announce his surgeon general pick at around 11:30am-ish this morning.
Nope, it’s not Dr. Phil.
She’s Dr. Regina Benjamin, an Alabama rural physician.
Bio info:
Benjamin was the first black woman to head a state medical society, received the Nelson Mandela Award for Health and Human Rights and last fall received a MacArthur [...]

Up in smoke.

Strike back at the taxaholics…and get healthier, too: Good idea!

Prescription for pain.

Giddyup.

Light up for Big Nanny.

Paved with Big Nanny intentions…

I’m scheduled to appear on the Glenn Beck show today at the top of the hour (a little after 5pm Eastern) and again at around 5:30pm Eastern. The theme of the show is “The Road to Socialism.” Tune in!
Update: Second segment dropped because of Obama S-CHIP signing.
Here’s the vid of the panel segment.
And here’s [...]

I don’t call them squishy, bend-over Barack Obama Republicans for nothing. Here’s the roll call vote on the massive S-CHIP expansion, funded with a huge tobacco tax increase that will hit the working poor the hardest in hard times. Nine Republican Senators joined the Democrats to shove the universal health care Trojan Horse through. [...]

I’ve been doing a lot of B.O. (Barack Obama/Bend Over) Republican-bashing the past few weeks. Watching the Republicans crumble on the Geithner and Holder nominations, swoon over The One’s congeniality, and display indecision over the stimulus hasn’t been easy on the stomach or the head.
But credit must be given where it is due. Today was [...]

Cross purposes.

The open-borders crowd has been pushing to get a piece of the S-CHIP pie for more than a year. House Republicans have flagged the issue repeatedly. The bill is now in the Senate.
CNS reports on Harry Reid’s diffident attitude about the loosened ID standards:
A proposed change to the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), [...]

“…because today’s children are tomorrow’s bright future!”

Giddyup, B.O. Republicans.

So far this morning, it’s been an endless parade of Save the Children shrieking. A few bright lights about House Republicans.
GOP Rep. John Culberson chastised the Dems for refusing to hold hearings and refusing to allow Republicans to add amendments:
Said Culberson: “This is a blind yes vote for all of you. No hearings. What [...]

It’s baaaack. Remember S-CHIP? The Democrats are racing their universal health care Trojan Horse through the House today and in the Senate by Friday. Yesterday evening after I filed my syndicated column (printed below) on Obama and the Democrats’ first massive tax increase of 2009, the 285-page text of the proposed S-CHIP expansion [...]

Dissatisfied customers.

Oh, baby. Plus more Dem bristling about appeasement.

Sinking S-CHIP.

I’ve got more Hillary in Bosnia reader photoshops for you (first batch here)–and this week’s column on the Clintons’ Truth Deficit Disorder. Allah points out that in my brief laundry list of top Hillary whoppers, I forgot Hillary’s smelly claim that she tried to become a Marine. Snorty-snort snort snort.

Scroll down for updates…here’s the “change that you can Xerox” video… “Lifting whole passages from someone else is not change you can believe in, it’s change you can Xerox.” Who wrote it? Knowing Washington, we’ll know soon enough…Hillary’s ending statement is being categorized by all the talking heads as “valedictory”…Like I said: Swan song…
No, you [...]
