Tonight on Greta, Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli & South Carolina Attorney General Henry McMaster appeared to discuss their pending legislation/lawsuits, which they will file tomorrow. At question is the Democrat leadership’s interpretation that the individual mandate is constitutionally legal under the Commerce Clause.
VA and SC are just two of 14 states that are in the process of enacting these State laws. We must all hope and pray that these states win the day…if for no other reason than there has never before been a federal law that REQUIRED an individual citizen to purchase something merely to be a legal United States citizen. This is intrusive beyond all imagination, and I await the first cases to be filed and sent to the Supreme Court of the United States. There are plenty of conservative figureheads that are willing to be those test cases. I’m anxiously awaiting that moment in time.
I believe the Constitution will win the day, but with this current corrupt administration, we need all the help we can get.
Exit question: Will illegal aliens also be required to purchase health insurance under this mandate? Why would they be if they’re not legal citizens? This is going to be one to watch, folks, and I don’t think it’s going to be a pretty outcome.
Today Beck laid down the foundation of the battles to come. We will lose some battles, but we MUST win the war. Whose side are you on? If you are on the right side of history, you will be on the winning team. And to the Progressives who are trying to destroy this country….. GAME ON! You wanted it, you got it.
We know who is on our side, and we will win, I guarantee it. We’ve come to kick a$$ and chew bubble gum – and we’re all out of bubble gum.
Glenn Beck hit it right on the head today. Yesterday’s vote was touted as such a historic vote, that Nancy & Co. locked arms and walked down the street to compare the passage of the Senate bill to victories in the civil rights movement. Are you kidding us, Nancy? REALLY?
We must remember our truly historic moments; ones that really counted. The historic moment that happened this weekend was historic allright; historically corrupt. It just proved that Congress really doesn’t listen to their bosses – We the People. It’s not time to give up; in fact, it’s time to hunker down and prepare for the battles ahead.
Today on Studio B, RNC Chairman Michael Steele was on, and Shep laid down the poor poor pitiful dem talking points, saying they have had to endure harsh rhetoric (like the right hasn’t). Shep brings up a comment made by Congressman Boehner, who called this new HCR bill “armageddon.” Shep continually asks Steele if that assessment is correct or not, and finally Steele said ‘yes.’ Shep seemed flummoxed, but I personally wouldn’t have taken so long to answer ‘yes’ myself!
Why? Because soft-talk, protests, emails, letters, phone calls, faxes, etc. have thus far not worked. Nancy Pelosi & PrezBO last night both invoked the Founding Fathers and the Constitution, with Nancy even going to so far as to invoke the “Of the People, By the People, For the People” clause.
Excuse me? REALLY, Nancy? WE THE PEOPLE have been telling ALL of you idiots this entire time we DO NOT LIKE this bill, yet you shove it down our throats anyway??? So, yes, Shep. Armageddon is not only appropriate, but damnit, if it takes saying things like that for you liberals and progressives on the left to pay attention to us, then by God we will use it. You obviously haven’t responded to polite discourse, so what else do you expect to hear at this point?
Why don’t you go over to MSNBC, Shep? You’d be far more comfortable there, I assure you!
And Steele is right about another thing, Shep. Small business owners know EXACTLY what’s going on, despite all the “goodies” you say they’re going to get in this health care plan.
Hi… please forgive the appearance of my site. I have a tag somewhere in the code that is wreaking havoc, and until I can find it, my site is all caddywampus on me. Please bear with me as I work to correct it.
Listen…I’m no fan of Obama, and like Mark Levin, I’d vote for a can of orange juice before I’d vote for Obama in 2012. Somewhere along the way, just because our president is black, videos like this are becoming more mainstream and more acceptable on YouTube and other sites, and it should not be.
This is tastleless to the n’th degree, but if it’s okay for black people to do this, how is anything ANY of the Republican candidates do remotely deemed racist at all?
If this country ever truly wants to progress and become a more civilized nation, why is trash like this even tolerated? I’m not asking for this garbage to be censored, but I’d love to see at least SOME condemnation of things like this to be more prevalent. Can we please all agree this is unacceptable in a civilized world? You cannot condemn one group of people for being allegedly “racist” while simultaneously approving of another group of people for creating videos such as this, villifying a single race of people in the process of glorifying the creators of these videos? One need only search certain terms on YouTube to find thousands of videos like this one. And they’re all equally disgusting.
What say you, Eugene Robinson, Goldie Taylor, Donna Brazile, Marc Lamont Hill, etc., etc.? I’m waiting for you all to openly condemn videos like this on YouTube. If you don’t, then I have no reason to listen to your small and petty complaints of racism from Fox News, Republicans as a whole, and GOP candidates in the 2012 primary. Your silence about videos like this are tacit approval of them.
As is said in many places, “hilarity ensues” (h/t Mediaite):
Frances Martel does a fabulous write-up about it, and I couldn’t have said it any better, so here it is direct from the Mediaite post:
“Are you offended?” O’Reilly asked Harpootlian, who replied that he was not, but that he found the fact that Republicans had “no outreach to African Americans” a problem “in a state where we have an African-American Republican Congressman.” “Adding insult to injury, this debate ignoring Martin Luther King’s birthday!” he added, which made O’Reilly ask who was ignoring the debate and why. The Republicans, Harpootlian replied, because “no one has raised any issue with Fox about it being appropriate or inappropriate.”
O’Reilly then asked whether there was a reason for this– namely, something that happened in 2008. Harpootlian did not remember what happened in 2008 (a Democratic primary debate on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day) and who sponsored it (the Congressional Black Caucus), which prompted several awkward seconds where Harpootlian was obviously caught flat-footed. With this development, O’Reilly then told him that, “by injecting race into this, you do a disservice.” Harpootlian finally replied, blaming Republicans for injecting race into the matter by calling this “the most important election since 1860.” “We in the South have a little different version of that election,” he noted, suggesting that talking to Southerners in such a way was a sort of dog whistle. O’Reilly disagreed and just asked Harpootlian to give it up, adding, “you’re getting killed here!”
Today on Neil Cavuto, radio talk show host and constitutional scholar, Mark Levin was on to discuss his new book, “Ameritopia.”
Levin’s previous book, “Liberty and Tyranny” was a best-seller, as was another book before that titled, “Men in Black.” “Liberty and Tyranny” is a must-read for anybody who wants to know how we got to the point where we are in America today.
I’ve been stewing on this and stewing on this figuring out the right way to convey how I feel about it, and I’ve been struggling with just the right words to describe my sentiment. I read a fabulous screed by Deebow over at BlackFive, but it wasn’t until I saw the headline in a Weekly Standard piece today that quoted Lt. Col. Allen West (R-FL) on this matter. I couldn’t have said it better myself:
‘Shut Your Mouth, War Is Hell’
Yes, you got that right. Congressman West has weighed in on this flap over the Marines taking a piss on dead Taliban terrorists, sending an email to the Weekly Standard, who got his permission to print what he said. Here’s a portion of his commentary:
“All these over-emotional pundits and armchair quarterbacks need to chill. Does anyone remember the two Soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division who were beheaded and gutted in Iraq?
“The Marines were wrong. Give them a maximum punishment under field grade level Article 15 (non-judicial punishment), place a General Officer level letter of reprimand in their personnel file, and have them in full dress uniform stand before their Battalion, each personally apologize to God, Country, and Corps videotaped and conclude by singing the full US Marine Corps Hymn without a teleprompter.
“As for everyone else, unless you have been shot at by the Taliban, shut your mouth, war is hell.”
I’m not even quite sure that what the Marines did was wrong, but since when in the hell did we become so indignant and self-righteously outraged about treating killers like they deserve to be treated? Sure, they probably shouldn’t have videotaped what they did, but who the hell cares? And don’t give me this “don’t stoop to their level” B.S. either. Until you have been in the shoes of our warriors, or our first responders (cops, firefighters, etc.), or, heck, even ever been a crime victim yourself, you have no idea what you would do, given the same circumstances.
