Stupak the Snookered Stooge Can't See the Dark Forest Into Which He's Leading America

by David Swindle

Rep. Bart Stupak cannot see the forest for the trees. The principled* pro-life Democrat recently announced his surrender to Obamacare. He will vote for the bill because of a promised executive order to prevent funding for abortion. My friend Paul Cooper has pointed out that President Obama's executive order could easily be rescinded. That's only part of the story, though. What Stupak does not seem to be able to comprehend is this: if you want to prevent the federal government from paying for abortions then you MUST be opposed to ...

Stalinism from America's Hat: Ann Coulter Threatened with Arrest by College Administrator for Upcoming Speech in Canada

by David Swindle

Hat-tip to Queen Kathy Shaidle, who alerted NRB to this MUST READ post at Coren's Comment: Dear Ms. Coulter, I understand that you have been invited by University of Ottawa Campus Conservatives to speak at the University of Ottawa this coming Tuesday. We are, of course, always delighted to welcome speakers on our campus and hope that they will contribute positively to the meaningful exchange of ideas that is the hallmark of a great university campus. We have a great respect for freedom of expression in Canada, as well ...

Video: Stupak Has Lied About Healthcare Vote All Along

by Liz Blaine

It looks like pro-life Democrat Bart Stupak has lied to Americans in opposition to the current health care bill. He never intended to vote against the legislation when it came down to final vote. Listen to this video of Bart Stupak recorded last year, when he was unaware he was being recorded. Hat Tip to Stand In The Gap and Gateway Pundit

From Hero to Goat: Bart Stupak is Jar Jar Binks

by Paul Cooper

For those who aren't familiar with Star Wars, Jar Jar Binks was an annoying, good guy character in the prequel Star Wars trilogy. Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI) has been annoying to the Left but a good guy by those against Obamacare until now. With Stupak's dramatic switch to support of the Senate version of the health care bill, he appears to be mirroring a similarly pivotal mistake that Jar Jar Binks made in Star Wars. Jar Jar was a goof ball, but played a major role as a ...

First, Do No Harm.... Second, Do No Harm.... Third, Do No Harm....

by Jeremiah Duboff

Here we are in crunch time and it occurred to me: Why hasn't the first principle of medical care itself -- "First, do no harm" -- not been the rallying cry of conservative, common sense opposition to federal takeover of health care? Not just rallying cry, but conservatives' rhetorical cudgel-of-choice to wield against proponents of this massive (395,096-word) and massively unpopular piece of socialistic legislation. The question has been posed as an echo, not a sound. Last December one piece at NR asked the question, armed with facts but otherwise almost absent-mindedly. A couple ...

Jews Marked with Yellow Stars Again

by David Horowitz

From Politically Incorrect: In the Copenhagen township of Nørrebro that has been solidly in Muslim hands for a long time, Jews must hide their faith in order to avoid persecution. Yellow stars get stuck to the backs of Norwegian schoolchildren, and the teachers don’t intervene. In the “enriched” Swedish town of Malmö, many Jewish families have already fled (PI reported). In all of Scandinavia, the persecution of Jews by “persons from the Near East” has increased enormously. The Frankfurter Rundschau reports: The attacks escalated in the previous year, when 200 Jewish demonstrators held ...

Breaking: Stupak Sells Out Because of an Executive Order That Could Be Rescinded Tomorrow

by Paul Cooper

Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI) has announced his small group of Democrat pro-life voters are swinging their votes to support Obamacare. His reasoning is based on an Obama Executive Order that will supposedly keep the new health care bill from paying for abortions. Pro-life groups have warned that this move is smoke and mirrors and that the Executive Order is not enough. The Susan B. Anthony list explains: 1. An executive order can be rescinded any time. President Obama could reverse it next week, next month, or next year. ...

Twog Say: As Vote Happen Today On Obamacare, Don't Forget Ezekiel Emanuel And The Truth Behind It All

by Twog

Twog learning every day that the Left push crazy stuff, then say not pushing it, but never really stop pushing it - until one day we living with it. It all a dirty game - they really have no shame. (Twog become songwriter?) Push (from July 2009 article in Wizbang Quoting Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel): "This civic republican or deliberative democratic conception of the good provides both procedural and substantive insights for developing a just allocation of health care resources. Procedurally, it suggests the need for public forums ...

NewsReal Sunday: Kansas City’s Iron Bishops: Fight For the Unborn, Reject Socialized Medicine

by Jeanette Pryor

American Catholics agonizing about today’s vote on ObamaCare will have mixed feelings about the United States Catholic Conference of Bishops' last-minute appeal to lawbreakers in the House, calling for a rejection of the Senate Bill. While they will agree with the Bishops' position on Life issues, they will simultaneously be appalled by the Socialist assertions in the Bishops’ letter: “The second point of objection,' the USCCB says, 'is that universal coverage should be truly universal. People should never be denied coverage because they can’t afford it, because of ...

Wet Dreams Of The Great Communist Revolution, Part 1

by Liz Blaine

Communism: n. A system of government in which the state plans and controls the economy and a single, often authoritarian party holds power, claiming to make progress toward a higher social order in which all goods are equally shared by the people. Vladimir Lenin coined the phrase “the commanding heights” to symbolize the sectors of the economy that largely control or support others, such as oil, railroads, banking, steel and foreign trade. From the late 1920s until the 1980s nearly all products, resources and services in the Soviet Union were owned ...

In Defense of Frances Townsend

by Elise Cooper

I am sorry I have to write a “Dear John letter.” I am surprised by your blog post regarding the Q and A I had with Frances Townsend. I regard her as an insightful, thoughtful, and direct -- yes, John -- direct person. She speaks her mind and says what she believes. Although I am glad you commented that the interview was “excellent” I thought you are stretching on your criticism of her. You pointed out that she did not use the verboten “I” word ...
