Iran? Obama? Forget it. Obama has abdicated.

The White House issued its first report on climate change, predicting that temperatures in the US are going to rise 11 degrees by the end of the century. That, by the way, is 92 years away. What a crock.

Barack Obama says that the unemployment rate will reach 10% this year. Looks like all of this government stimulus is really paying off. Remember ... his earlier prediction was 8%. This guy really has a grip on his numbers, doesn't he?

A group of Republicans have introduced a bill that would prohibit the federal government from using federally funded comparative effectiveness research to ration healthcare. Not a chance.

Harry Reid says that he is willing to ditch bipartisanship in order to get a healthcare bill passed. Again ... not a chance. Reid is saying that if the Republicans will just go along, the Democrats will be bipartisan.

This is humorous ...HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius says that he insurance lobby won't be able to block a government health plan because most Americans realize they would be better off if the industry had competition. Wait! An ObamaBot talking up competition?

Jimmy Carter wants the Obama administration to remove Hamas from the terrorist list. When will this failed ex-president just go away?

Economist Nouriel Roubini believes that there is a significant risk that the US could experience a double-dip recession.

According to Rasmussen, 80% of Americans want the Obama administration to sell its stake in GM and Chrysler ASAP.

Looks like the cash-for-clunkers plan, which has been included in a war funding bill, may be facing opposition in the Senate.

Here's the latest on the brouhaha between ABC and the Republicans over Obama's primetime healthcare townhall.

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce ripped the Senate healthcare bill that is in the works. Not good news for PrezBO.

California Democrats just don't get it. They want to increase taxes in order to close their $24 billion budget deficit, and people wonder why Californians can't get out of that state fast enough.

When it comes to voting, 83% of Americans support the idea of checking photo IDs in order to vote ... the Justice Department, however, disagrees. The Justice Department, you see, is controlled by Democrats.

What others are saying

  • voter Id
    All countries require ID to vote...to registar to vote...etc What is the big friggen deal? If you do not drive you can get an ID ..My 80 year old mom did and all of her other friends at the "Home" where she lives. Unfortunately they all vote democratic as does she, but non the less they are legal.
  • I zee noth-ink, I hchear noth-ink...
    If their cap-n-trade scam goes through, it will increase unemployment even more.

    Competition with who, the government? Sebelious can talk about competition for the same reason hussein can reference Jesus more than W with no objections, everyone knows they don’t mean it.

    Gaza’s a great place to revoke carter’s passport. They were made for each other. Hamas doesn’t wash their jimmy carter jockstraps without the mad mullahs telling them to. Along with hezz, they are a tentacle of Iran.

    If California goes down that road before the rest of the country, the example might save the rest of the country from doing it. I know, I’m an optimist.

    I remember when an adult Georgian, without a GA driver’s license or ID could be detained without probable cause until identified. That ended with the rise of the illegal immigrant population in GA. I’m glad they require ID where I vote.


    How about we just do what’s right and let the world think what they will, as they will, Chris?

    Carter isn’t a terrorist Jeff, he’s just a terrorist supporter.

    I don’t doubt the United States embarrassed would make you grin, tshirt-doc, but why should we be embarrassed? The Germans elected Hitler, but that just made them liable for what he did. If the IDF responded to the next rocket that hits Sderot by carpet bombing Gaza City to rubble (as they can, under the Laws of War), not only would the attacks cease, but in the future the local muslims would kill anybody that tried to launch an attack on Israel out of pure self-interest.

    That’s the headline for the 2012 election, Rick. They are just getting ahead of themselves.
  • Government
    I can never understand why the party that thinks government is the problem, not the solution, the party that thinks government makes more things worse than it makes better, the party who thinks that "I'm from the government and I'm here to help" are the nine most frightening words, the party who thinks government should be so small it can be drowned in a bathtub - this is the party that wants our government to get even more involved with policing the world and thinks that the Iranian people really, really, really want the United States President to show them his support.

    I really don't get it.
  • To: Shuttin' Down
    It's true... check it out :)

  • IG firing
    According to Public Law 95-452 (sec3b) dated Oct 12, 1978, "An Inspector General may be removed from office by the President. The President shall communicate the reasons for any such removal to both the House and Congress."

    It does not specify a waiting period of 30 days.
  • I know I saw this - I did!
    on CNN of all places, not more than 40 minutes ago - has Bill Maher (the eunuch version of Dennis Miller) made less than flattering remarks about the Great One!?!? Something about being more of a celebrity than a president... or something like that. (ohhhh, he in so much trouble). Can't find squat on it yet on the net - my inquiring mind wants to know if this freak show really bashed the other freak show.
  • Wonder
    I wonder if Jesse from Miami is better off now with his job search. Wonder if he got out of his 7 year fry job to find something better, now that the Chosen One is in office.
  • "photo IDs in order to vote"
    According to the DOJ, while in GA, when "Barney" stops me for a license/ID check, all he needs to know is that I am a "minority" and he can go pound sand.
    Yipee!
  • Super Fly
    Saw Obama kill a fly this morning on the news...where is PETA when you need them?
  • Carter
    Neal,

    Your referred to Carter as a "failed ex-President". I'd like to suggest an adjectival change. It should be "Ex-failed president".

    Abdication of Freedom
    All who live in tyranny and hopelessness can know: The United States will not ignore your oppression, or excuse your oppressors. When you stand for your liberty, we will stand with you. George W. Bush 2007 Inaugural Speech
    By NCchik

    Does that work for us too? LOL
  • Carter
    This guy is the lulz. He wants Hamas removed from the terror list even though they tried to bomb him. Nice. He is our version of Comic Ali.
  • Removing Hamas from Terror List
    For any one out there that did not know what Jimmy Carter is, this little ploy should finally pull the wool off of their eyes! Anyone with half a brain knows that Hamas is a terrorist organization! They teach, fund and encourage these attacks all over the world....... Jimmy Carter is an embarassment to this country!
  • jimmy carter= #1 reason not vote liberal
    Even the democrates want Carter to shut up cause as long as he's alive,and being an idiot in the spotlight, the "Bush was the worst president in 75 years!" propaganda just doesn't work.Maybe the obama team should make him a ambassador some tiny country in africa ,strand him there and maybe a mysterious fatal ailment or animal attack will happen.
  • the white house report on global warming
    Temperatures will rise 11 degrees by the end of the century huh?

    Sounds like another bad guess.
  • Abdication of Freedom
    All who live in tyranny and hopelessness can know: The United States will not ignore your oppression, or excuse your oppressors. When you stand for your liberty, we will stand with you. George W. Bush 2007 Inaugural Speech
  • Comparative Effectiveness
    Does anyone really think this won't be based on cost? "This procedure will save your life. Unfortunately, the government doesn't think it is "effective" (cheap) enough. Go home and die.
  • Jimmy Carter wants the Obama administration to remove Hamas from the terrorist list.
    Jimmy Carter: history's greatest monster.
  • rick -- don't believe him
    "Fifty men have run America, and that's a high figure." Joseph Kennedy, father of JFK, in the July 26th, 1936 issue of The New York Times.
  • hamas
    it makes me grin to think of the united states, the bringer of democracy to the middle east, embarrassed by hamas' win in the democratic election.
  • Elected Idiots...
    Steny Hoyer said "This is the president of the United States elected by all American people to be a leader of our nation.". Elected by "ALL" of the people, dang I missed that headline saying Obama got 100% of the vote in the last election.
  • iran
    so you not impressed with obama's lack of opinion. i thought you would want him to have his opinion. that way you could be abusing him for being god-like. i doesn't matter what he does you're not going to like it.
    its don't say much for your objective news
  • Follow the Republican playbook for success
    Harry Reid should follow how Republicans ran the Congress from '01-'06! Now those were successful days with the Congress passing everything single thing that came down the pike, even at times without the Dems!
    Harry Reid should follow the way the Repubs handeled their bills through the process, all the way to the Presidents desk for his signature!
    Don't you all agree?
  • Cash-For-Clunkers Plan
    Anyone with a brain will realize this is about nothing more then keeping Unions Workers working and voting for Democrats. I reality the production of a Brand New Car is much worse for the environment then driving your old Clunker.
  • do what?
    "The Justice Department, you see, is controlled by Democrats"

    you mean the same Justice Department that supports the Defense of Marriage Act?

    http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/06/16/obama.same.sex.benefits/index.html

    OK... whats going on here? Someone's slipped something into my coffee, because this doesn't make sense.
  • Jimmy Carter
    Can we ADD Carter to the terrorist list?
  • The 80%
    should follow the new DOJ guidelines and show up at the polling places with clubs to ensure ID's get checked.

    After all, if the Black Panthers can show up with clubs, why can't we?
  • Iran
    So you believe that America fecklessly brandishing it's opinion in a sensitive international matter would be beneficial to the protesters in Iran? That is exactly what McCain would have done (remember bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran) and is exactly what Ahmadinejad wants us to do. What better offense against the protesters could there be than "this is a protest that's supported by the imperial USA"? We need to get the hell out of recklessly sticking our noses into international affairs and have some faith in people for a change-people like the protesters who are doing the dirty work. Discretion is certainly an important part of valor, and I view Obama's reasoned and restrained response as a virtue.
