Just in the nick of time, HHS vindicates the necessity of Obamacare with a carefully conducted study that tends to support the need for heavy-handed government regulations on insurance companies. I think Fox’s Dr. Manny sums up the study better than I could: “To offer up such a high number is a harsh lie — that’s a made up number. There’s no way to come | Read More »

Here’s a quote from column, written by someone named Strassel, in the Wall Street Journal: That didn’t happen, but only because Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell accomplished a mini Christmas miracle. The Kentuckian devoted yesterday to making the arguments—both principled and political—to the Spending Nine. He was ultimately persuasive enough, and the earmarkers wise enough, to pull back their support. A very unhappy Mr. Reid | Read More »
From the Bangor Daily News: PORTLAND, Maine — The Maine Republican who made headlines with his “go to hell” remark aimed at President Barack Obama says he’s looking forward to meeting his commander in chief on Thursday.

His projections match what we’ve been hearing from the pundits for the past few weeks. However, Mr. Rasmussen believes that the coming GOP wave isn’t a vote for Republicans, but a vote against Democrats. Essentially, it comes down to changing the mindset of the people elected to public office. As soon | Read More »
This is no ordinary election. Maine, and indeed, all of America, is faced with a choice. It’s ostensibly a choice between two candidates in most cases, but the names on the ballot are merely the visible choice, the one the pundits and the anchorpeople will earn their money discussing until the early hours of November 3rd. As important is it is to vote, it is | Read More »

We’re a year into the Obama Administration, but the changing of the calendar brings no relief from the burdens we carry forward. Unemployment still wreaks its havoc among the working class, pirates and terrorists still lurk in the shadows, and above the shortage of doctors and the inevitability of tax hikes loons the terrible specter of global warming and Mayan-predicted catastrophe.
