All of his promises seem to have expiration dates attached to them. I think the real expiration date for all of them was November 4th, 2008.

That’s what James Lovelock wants to do. And I think a frightening number on the left would agree with him – the current religious belief of liberals in political ideals despite all logic and evidence to the contrary is scary.
Facebook is threatening action against a developer who’s made a script for Firefox users that blocks certain Facebook apps from working.
This is pretty stupid, and is like websites getting angry at Adblock. The internet works by browsers requesting information, and websites pushing that information back. There is nothing that says what you have to do with that information you get back, and shouldn’t be. Adding requirements like that would be as silly as mandating that people buy health insurance, even if they don’t want to, and that that health insurance do things like cover their expenses in case of childbirth even if they can’t get pregnant.
If applied in the right area. Very interesting.
Healthcare is apparently a fundamental right for teachers to educate their students about.
Obama just achieved one of his major foreign policy objectives (major since he talked about it on his campaign way more than Bush ever mentioned Iraqi WMDs) and got Russia to agree to a joint reduction in nukes.
Umm, what does this accomplish exactly? Does anyone think that either Russia or the U.S. are at all likely to use them? And how is this anywhere near the top of security objectives?
Billions in earmarks, unsurprisingly.
With a tape and all. Awesome!
For the most part. That transforms it from sinister to mostly just stupid, incompetent, and one more massive government program headed straight for failure.
Funny how he never seemed to notice that with respect to the Bush tax cuts…
Andrew Breitbart is offering $10000 to anyone with a shred of evidence that any of the accusations of the CBC about tea party racism are true. The fact that there were several video cameras and no one has come forward to claim the prize or present any video shows just how much of a lie the entire thing is. And the entire spitting thing was also massively overblown, and basically untrue.
Politico and Democratic representative Carnahan reported that a funeral-service-for-victims-of-Obamacare protest was really a death threat to Democratic politicians, and then Politico quietly retracted its story, but don’t expect any admission or apology forthcoming.
Democratic politicians are suddenly concerned with pitchfork mobs, which you’ll recall Obama has called for his followers to be when faced with opposition.
Now we could take a trip down memory lane to see how much the media and Democrats adore liberal protesters and how much violence those protesters advocate and perpetrate, but we don’t even need to: Just today GOP Whip Eric Cantor had bullets fired into his office.
Update: Now the media is claiming that someone threw a rock into Dem. Representative Driehaus’ office…on the thirtieth floor.
MOMA is running an exhibit on how New York’s waterfront areas should deal with climate change and ecological issues, and there are quite a few nifty ideas. The climate change motivations are entirely silly, but the ideas to develop wetlands and reestablish oyster colonies I find pretty nifty. Wetlands are something that unfortunately we didn’t recognize the ecological value of – only the malarial threat, until way too late. Now that the health concerns of those environments have been pretty much solved in this country, seeing those ecologies make a comeback would be pretty nifty.
It might be that 40% tax hike on over the counter medications.
Hey, he’s been running medical fraud for years, so he would know all about using health care for political power.
