    Nancy Pelosi urges Obama to sidestep Congress, use 14th Amendment to raise debt ceiling.

    *ahem* Section Five of that Amendment indicates that Congress, not the President, has the authority on this. They’re so cute when they think they are knowledgeable.

    You mean holding them upside down by their ankles is a bad thing? Oh dear…

    Renowned French economist to join Obama’s team

    Given the high amount of taxes the French are now enjoying, it’s no wonder Obama would want to hire someone like this.

    Plant a tree; pollute the planet.  Now, that’s a slogan for earth day! Why do liberals always forget the X factor? i.e the law of unintended consequences strikes again!

      I’ve been harping on this crap for years – did the idiot lefties (sorry for repeating myself) ever bother to tak into account all the steps to GET to the “plant a tree” stage?

      For a really good example:  The CFL uses pennies a day of electricity to operate, right?  How did it get manufactured?  You’d be shocked to learn that the total energy difference between manufacturing a standard incandescent light bulb and a CFL is about 20-to-one.  That’s right, the CFL takes FAR more energy and FAR more resources to manufacture than a good old “inefficient” light bulb that has served us well for the past hundred-plus years!  Plus, when you break a standard bulb you don’t have to call in a HazMat team!

      Christmas LED lights are another story, although I think they are well worth the cost because you can literally light up your whole yard for less than 100 watts of energy…

    ‘Wretched man I am’ misses the point.

    The political elite do not want to find 15 million illegals because most come from socialistic countries, do not understand individual rights and freedom, and serve their purpose. If given the chance they will want to find 300 million guns because they fear an armed populace. History has proven totalitarian governments can not exist were the common people are willing and able to oppose them, think of Nazi Germany.

    The problem is selective enforcement of the laws of the land and they will dutifully confiscate our weapons without discretion or concern for our safety.

    Unfortunately there is no easy solution. The democrats and republicans are all in this together. The only difference is the democrats want to take away our freedoms now and the republicans are willing to do it more slowly. Either way they are both leading us away from the rights guaranteed by the laws of our land.

    Got milk? Breast pump industry booming thanks to Obamacare as new moms take advantage of new laws

    I’m disappointed.  I was hoping that breast pumps worked the other way… *grin*
