Obama's stimulus and universal health care plan is nothing more than a BAIL OUT for State Governments that are so HUGE, full of waste and corruption. Give the $$$$ to the PEOPLE and dismantle government to get back to governing and regulating and get OUT of the business of providing services as they cannot do it as effectively, efficiently or as economically as Private Industry. The Government CAN monitor and Regulate Private busines they just cann't regulate their own agencies due to political influence, nepotism and favoritism. The HUGE State Governments OPPRESS its citizens and the middle class that supports this burgeoning BEST is shrinking at alarming rates.

I just finished a few moments ago an article in the Weekly Standard about Japan problems in the 1990's which looks a lot like ours. The info dude (the masculine version of the term info-babe) alluded to it but did not mention that the one thing that really seemed to help Japan was tax cuts.
Unfortunately they jacked up taxes just as they were starting to work and sent them back into recession again. Also Japan did the infrastructure thing with no success.
Also the info-dude did not give George Bush credit for his tax cuts. True, Bush did spend to much but he also cut taxes and that helped the economy. We would still be in good shape if not for the credit crunch and oil price spike.
We have a built in tax increase coming in 2010. It will be interesting to see what the liberals do.
What I will do is write my senators and congressman about this so called tax cut for people who don’t even pay taxes of which many don’t work at all I take it. That really makes me mad.
Call welfare welfare. Tax cuts are for people who actually pay taxes!

On the second vid I wish Democrats would give Hover the credit he deserves for his plan that is a lot like their plan.

They paint him as a supply sider when in fact he did all the same things Roosevelt did. He got blamed for it merely because he was caught holding the bag.

Casey Chadwick’s Uneasy Life after Death

Casey and her mother Wendy "I just started grief counseling. I'm always sad. I'm sad and in pain and I miss her." Wendy Hartling   Hartling is the mother of Casey Chadwick, murdered in 2015 by Jean Jacques , an illegal Haitian immigrant. Jacques was convicted of the murder of Chadwick in a New London Superior Court jury trial and sentenced by Judge Barbara Bailey Jongbloed to a 60 year term in prison. Since Jacques is 44 years of age, the sentence was, in effect, a life sentence. Connecticut Commentary coverage of the Chadwick murder may be found here , and here   and here . Jacques could not have been sentenced to death because Connecticut’s Democrat dominated General Assembly, under pressure from the state Supreme Court, had abolished Connecticut’s death penalty law in 2012 . The slaughter of Chadwick was particularly brutal. Her body had been found by a friend who, opening a door to a closet, discovered Chadwick stuffed in a dark corner drenched in blo...

Understanding North Korea Through Dramaturgy

The U.S. military is sending the Vinson Strike Group, including the carrier and two guided-missile destroyers, to operate in the Western Pacific Ocean in response to Pyongyang’s recent missile tests. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, asked about the strike force, issued a terse statement: “The United States has spoken enough about North Korea. We have no further comment.” Is this a post-Syrian bombing mission? Will the US take out North Korea’s missile launching sites, possibly with the unspoken concurrence of China? Never let a bombing go to waste. There are some in the United States who think any such incident should be used to rid North Korea of that runty little totalitarian cock-of-the-walk who keeps his countrymen starved, in fear and at his knees. Since we only have one chance, they say, go for the clean sweep -- no more Kims. Connecticut Commentary is reprinting an earlier piece about the Kims here. Best read with a glass of port.

The Blumenthal Burisma Connection

Steve Hilton , a Fox News commentator who over the weekend had connected some Burisma corruption dots, had this to say about Connecticut U.S. Senator Dick Blumenthal’s association with the tangled knot of corruption in Ukraine: “We cross-referenced the Senate co-sponsors of Ed Markey's Ukraine gas bill with the list of Democrats whom Burisma lobbyist, David Leiter, routinely gave money to and found another one -- one of the most sanctimonious of them all, actually -- Sen. Richard Blumenthal."
