The liberal media wants ObamaCare to pass almost as much as Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi and George Soros do. That's why the newspapers and network news shows are splashing around the AMA's endorsement of Congress' 1,990 page health care reform bill. But they are being careful to avoid telling you that the AMA represents only 17-24% of the profession. Indeed, as I pointed out from an Investor's Business...

Jeez, Nancy, why the rush to vote on a massive health care nationalization bill this Saturday? I mean, Mr. Obama promised us "the most transparent administration ever", so why would you be debating and voting on a $1 trillion+ bill on a Saturday, when few will be home to watch it or protest? And what about that promise to post the bill online for 72 hours before allowing it to be voted on?...

and Pelosi is a liar; anyone surprised about either of those? The White House and the congressional leadership saw this coming, and it is why Speaker Nancy Pelosi is force-marching her health bill to a vote tomorrow. She's not about to give her members time to absorb the ugly results, or to be further rattled by next week's Veteran's Day break, when they go home for a repeat of the August furies. If...

Oops. Back in August , I said that I thought there was only about a 1 in 3 chance that unemployment would break the 10 percent barrier. I think it was a well-reasoned analysis, but sure did turn out wrong . The data from the establishment survey -- which is completely separate from the household survey by which the unemployment rate is calculated -- wasn't quite as bad. This is the figure that the...

The Obama presidency was always a race against time. The time when people understood who, and what he is. That time is now. This WSJ opinion piece profiles some of the Blue state freshmen Dems who won't see a second term. Something that explains why Pelosi Breaks Pledge to Put Final Health Care Bill Online for 72 Hours Before Vote . “ The White House and the congressional leadership saw this...

Obama and The Donkeys is perhaps the worst band ever. Never have so many been so tone deaf. Lead singer Nancy Pelosi is pushing them over the edge, refusing to listen to her audience from poll after poll stating that they do not like her 1,900+ piece. Nor does she listen to any of the [...]

by Mark Silva As the House prepares to take the first vote Saturday on the health-care legislation that President Barack Obama is seeking by year's end, most Americans say they'd be happy with Congress taking more time to either work out minor problems or major changes in the bill. A slim majority - 53 percent - also say they oppose the president's plans for a health-care and insurance overhaul as...

Several weeks ago, I ignited a controversy by pointing toward statistical evidence that Strategic Vision, LLC, a Blairsville, Georgia based public relations firm that until recently had issued political polls, may have been faking its results. Strategic Vision vehemently denied my interpretation of the evidence and made public threats to sue me. But no lawyer has contacted me, and in fact, Strategic...
