Obama is going to vote “present” on the remaining 35 months of his term … so he can focus on his reelection campaign.
Screw the kids, it’s the RETIRED teachers our tax dollars are supporting: “…The [school] board will cut band and sports, and increase class size, to make the pension payments.”
The ACORN Crime Family is shutting down and ReNaming is Underway. But wait! If they aren’t around to launder money, how will politicians pocket billions of taxpayer dollars for themselves?
Gallup’s daily measure of U.S. employment reveals that 19.9% of the U.S. workforce was underemployed last month, translating to close to 30 million Americans who are working less than their desired capacity.

Sarah Palin on HealthCare: Vouchers
Sarah Palin posted on her Facebook an opinion on health care. She pointed out how Obamacare will raise premiums which will make health care less affordable for all Americans. She also pointed out an interesting and legitimate solution:
Vouchers.
She observes the bleeding obvious, that if you force health insurance companies to stop denying coverage for pre-existing conditions, it will spell disaster: under Obamacare a single person can simply pay the gov’ment fine of $750 a year and not buy insurance. Then, when you fall smash into a tree when skiing, you sign up for health care after you’ve been treated. You hand the insurance company a check for the first month’s premium, say $300, they hand you a policy, and you hand them a bill for $20,000. We all know that’s how it will be with this plan as written, but it won’t work. Obamacare is a disaster waiting to happen.
Governor Palin points out that Tort Reform should be the first step:
Americans want health care reform because we want affordable health care. We don’t need subsidies or a public option. We don’t need a nationalized health care industry. We need to reduce health care costs. But the Senate Finance plan will dramatically increase those costs, all the while ignoring common sense cost-saving measures like tort reform. Though a Congressional Budget Office report confirmed that reforming medical malpractice and liability laws could save as much as $54 billion over the next ten years, tort reform is nowhere to be found in the Senate Finance bill.
Her next three points are also dead-on: allow individuals to purchase insurance across state lines; tax deductions for taxpayers who purchase their own plans; give Medicare recipients vouchers so that they can purchase their own plans.
