Obama already getting weak on Russia....

Obama turning water into wine...

$1.417 Trillion.....
.... is the grand total federal debt incurred during fiscal year 2009. After the announcement the Obama administration quickly put the blame on the "previous administration".. the same old story they have been giving since January 20th.. So my question is: when exactly during his first term will Obama finally accept ownership for the budget? Last I hear Obama was the decision maker now and Bush was off tending cows... Hope for America... right.

Will the fake Republicans please leave the party?
So yesterday the "Baucus" health care plan passed the vote in the Senate Finance Committee. This doesn't guarantee its eventual passage in the Senate, but it does make it more likely and it does bring it down to the Senate floor a lot faster then otherwise.Now this bill goes against many basic ideals of the "classic" Republican Party...It raises taxesIt gives more power to the governmentIt forces people to do thingsIt redistributes wealthIt penalizes capitalistic successYou would think that every single Republican in office would be against it. However Olympia Snowe, who is a Republican member of the Baucus committee, a

Move over Gandi... make room for Obama!
So Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize yesterday... actually I shouldn't say "won" because you don't "win" the Nobel prize... it is just handed to you as an award... no one competes for it... Or rather I should say no one publicly competes for it. Now lets put this in perspective.. awards are given out all over the place for all sorts of reasons. There are quite a few "prestigious" honors around.. for example being selected to the position of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge. That is a post that was one held by Isaac Newton, Charles Babbage, and more recently Stephen Hawking.. There is only one of these... and only 16 holders through history (dating back to 16

Obama and his buddies attacking the 1st Amendment....
Recently the insurance giant Humana sent out a mailer to their customers to warn them about some of the proposed "reform" legislation and how it could affect them. In response the Department of Health and Human Services sent a cease and desist notice to Humana and other providers ordering them to stop sending out this type of information, and to remove any related information from their web sites. This all has been done at the behest of Baucus, who if you remember is the Democrat who recently chaired the recent health care proposals under consideration.However, it is perfectly fine for the White House to send SPAM e-mails to thousands of people promoting the current administrati

Obama scraps the missile defense shield...
As I predicted months ago in several blog entries, Obama is scrapping the missile defense shield. Well to be more accurate they are scrapping the European part of it in Poland and the Czech Republic. That does not leave much left.The claim by the Pentagon is that it is being done to refocus efforts against short/medium range weapons that Iran seems to be favoring. That may be true to a point.. but why scrap the long range element?The obvious reason is to throw a bone to the Russians to calm tensions with them. Ever since Bush started working to deploy the system Russia has been teaming up with Venezuela and others for military exercises, and acting like it is the col
