Articles: The Promise of ObamaCare: Hospice for the Healthy

Articles: The Promise of ObamaCare: Hospice for the Healthy: "In Great Britain, where the medicine has been administered by the government for nearly three-quarters of a century, a pattern has emerged that should be troubling to even the most deadened senses of decency. A recent audit by the Royal College of Physicians has revealed that in one hospital group alone, more than 50% of the patients who were put on a palliative care protocol known as the "Liverpool Care Pathway" (LCP) have had those decisions made solely by the attending physicians, without consult or notification of the patients family. In another group of hospitals, only 1 in 3 were informed of the life-ending decision."

Hey, let's have us some government-administered medicine!

Congratulations to General Motors: Worst Car Stock of 2011; Chevy Volt a ‘Worst Product Flop of 2011′ Winner — Less Government

Congratulations to General Motors: Worst Car Stock of 2011; Chevy Volt a ‘Worst Product Flop of 2011′ Winner — Less Government: "General Motors stock (NYSE: GM) finished 2011 down 46.1% – the absolute worst car or car-related product stock on the board. Besting (so to speak) the second worst by 4.5%.

And GM’s unprofitable, unpopular, combustible electric Chevy Volt was a ‘Worst Product Flop of 2011’ winner. Oh, and GM is moving electric vehicle development (and production?) to China – which sort of undermines the jobs “created or saved” reason for the $50 billion GM bailout."

But your health care will get better...

Obamateurism of the Day « Hot Air

Obamateurism of the Day « Hot Air: "Er, that’s the reason the founders gave you the veto, champ. One section in an otherwise vital bill perhaps might be understandable, but griping that seventeen violate the Constitution and/or separation of powers and then signing the bill is a splendid demonstration of sheer impotence, as well as hypocrisy … two of Obama’s signature characteristics."

Articles: By His Fruits Ye Shall Know Him: Obama's Subversive Appointments

Articles: By His Fruits Ye Shall Know Him: Obama's Subversive Appointments: "If you vote for Barack Obama because of his charm, his urbanity, his soaring rhetoric that seems to endorse traditional American values, and presume that a man of such fine qualities must be open and honest in his agenda...well, you've been conned."

Many of us know this, but read the article nonetheless.

Articles: Fake! Fake! Fake! Fake!

Articles: Fake! Fake! Fake! Fake!: "Time is becoming short. We're reaching a tipping point -- not of the earth's climate, but of the financial schemes that permanently divert funds from productive activities into wasteful ones, all in the name of "saving the climate." The results are evident: higher levels of spending, deficits, or taxes; higher prices for energy and electricity and therefore for all manufactured goods; less productive activity; less employment; and more misery.
It seems odd that all of this is essentially based on a fake -- the data that seem to show a (nonexistent) warming. It will be difficult to overturn this notion, but we must keep trying."

WaPo: Two “green” subsidies we won’t miss in 2012 « Hot Air

WaPo: Two “green” subsidies we won’t miss in 2012 « Hot Air: "We’re killing coal, gasoline, and electricity at the same time while demanding EVs that we won’t be able to economically buy or sell or even charge under current hostile regulatory policies. It’s not just one bad investment that we need to change, but a whole series of irrational policies that hamper American energy production and consumer choice. And that’s due to one bad investment in particular from which voters can divest themselves in November."

Good point.

Articles: Americans Elect: Obama's Third-Party Tar Pit

Articles: Americans Elect: Obama's Third-Party Tar Pit: "One hopes that increasingly likely Republican nominee Mitt Romney (whose Republican candidacy, it must be said, would be a good fit against the Americans Elect threat) is more of a street-fighter than his polite and reasonable demeanor suggests. And that his troops long ago noticed Americans Elect, and are well-prepared to deal with this Machiavellian fraud. If not, 2012 is going to be a long and painful year."

Pay attention!!
