I have never agreed with Howard Dean on anything....until now. He actually told the truth about something. The question is "Why is tort reform not in the health bill?"
“Here is why tort reform is not in the bill. When you go to pass a really enormous bill like that the more stuff you put in, the more enemies you make, right? And the reason why tort reform is not in the bill is because the people who wrote it did not want to take on the trial lawyers in addition to everybody else they were taking on, and that is the plain and simple truth. Now, that’s the truth.”
Conservatives have criticized the liberals for years for being bought and paid for by trial lawyers. Conservatives have been criticized for holding those views. Well, we were right, as per usual. Now the truth is out.

Good Grief
Liberals always get offended when they get accused of not caring about the protection of the US. Then they go and do dumb stuff like this.

Lib Quote Of The Day
Barack Obama, to his credit (don't tell anyone I said this), appeared on conservative radio-host Michael Smerconish's show yesterday. He said that he would:
"love to have more Republicans engaged and involved in this process,"
Really? Did he just say that? Is he that insane? Um, Sir, who do you think these people at the town hall meetings are? Who do you think the people being polled in these negatively trending polls are? REPUBLICANS! We are engaged. We are involved. We have ideas. You are just ignoring them.

in response to the conquistador's clunker...
let's get real here. care sales are down on used cars because people just aren't buying. NOT because the turned in cars are being junked. trust me, as someone who is currently looking at replacing our two new cars with two used ones, i've come across some awesome deals and there are tons of cars out there. i've been able to find pretty much any car i could possibly want. the lots are filled at the dealerships. the "mom and pop" used places may be seeing their inventory shrinking, but it is just a temporary thing until the program ends. those used car dealers probably lost their sales because they were price gouging and raising prices because they knew people would start buying more used due to the current fragile economy.
new car sales are up, manufacturing jobs are saved, we use less gas with more efficient cars, the environment benefits. the positives definitely out weigh the negatives in this scenario.
so the only ones truly affected by the cash for clunkers program is the used car salesman? i just see it as payback for all those annoying tv ads we've been forced to endure throughout the years.
nice try conquistador.

Lib Quote Of The Day
With Democrats holding power in Congress and the White House, they are trying desperately to get everything they want passed. They even go to extreme lengths to fib about their policies and scare us into believing them (yes, yes, all politicians use scare tactics. I know.), as evidenced by this quote from House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi.
"Every week we don't pass a Stimulus package, 500 million Americans lose their jobs.''
Maybe those extra people live in the 60 states that Obama thought were in the country.

Lib Quote Of The Day
Our beloved supreme leader has been trying to force people to believe in his healthcare ideas lately by using campaign-style tactics. By busing in supporters he always seems to draw a friendly crowd. Hm. Weird. The other day he was trying to address the concern that private companies will not be able to compete with a government insurance plan and dropped this gem...
"They do it all the time," he said. "UPS and FedEx are doing just fine. ... It's the Post Office that's always having problems."
...as he's trying to convince us that the government can run things better than the private market? That sounds like a gaffe to me. But, no. He thinks it's a legitimately good argument to advance his ideas. He said it again. And AGAIN!!!! Like I said before, this man is crazy.

"He's (Osama bin Laden) been out in these countries for decades, building schools, building roads, building infrastructure, building day-care facilities, building health-care facilities, and these people are extremely grateful. We haven't done that."
