POPSObama's Critics Are Also in His Administration Those deficits were nothing compared to those provided in Obama's budget. His deficits would last years after the recession is over and in spite of the massive tax increases that promises to accompany them. The Democrats correctly criticized Bush's deficits. Feldstein notes that Obama's deficits, because of its expensive health care agenda will reach $9.3 trillion -- more than twice the amount of the previous administration. In an earlier article in the Washington Post, Feldstein noted that "For the 85 percent of Americans who already have health insurance, the Obama health plan is bad news. It means higher taxes, less health care and no protection if they lose their current insurance because of unemployment or early retirement." Feldstein also notes that the price of the program is enormous and would cost more than $1 trillion and would raise the current maximum tax rate from 35 to 45 percent.

POPSIran, Obama and the Bipartisan Sanctions Bill “Suspicious aims.” New charges were also brought last month against Iranian-American scholar Kian Tajbakhsh, who was already sentenced to at least 12 years in prison on espionage charges. The regime has been going after other foreign nationals, including French teacher Clotilde Reiss, who is living under house arrest in the French embassy in Tehran. Christopher Dickey notes in Newsweek that “since Ahmadinejad took over four years ago, some 35 foreign nationals or dual nationals have been imprisoned for use as chump change in one sordid deal or another.” Diplomacy. In October, the U.S. and its allies offered to enrich Iran’s uranium in facilities outside the country, supposedly for the production of medical isotopes. Tehran finally came back with a counterproposal late last week, in which no uranium would leave Iranian soil. Even Hillary Clinton admits it’s a nonstarter:

POPS$100,000,000,000 A Year OR End-Days The president's speech followed the publication of draft text, obtained by the Guardian this morning, that reveals the enormous progress needed from world leaders in the final hours of the Copenhagen climate change summit to achieve a strong deal. The draft says countries "ought" to limit global warming to 2C, but crucially does not bind them to do so. The text, drafted by a select group of 28 leaders " including UK prime minister, Gordon Brown " in the early hours of this morning, also proposes extending negotiations for another year until the next scheduled UN meeting on climate change in Mexico City in December 2010.

POPS What Would Stuart Smalley Do? Sounds noble, yet tragic. But “pragmatist” just doesn’t seem to describe what we’ve witnessed in any of his endeavors over the past 11 months. How about, an incompetent neophyte taking bad advice who tried to please everyone and failed, not least because he didn’t actually have a plan or a process for developing one in the first place, nor did he waste much energy trying to sell what he didn’t have, though he did signal from the start that, lacking actual principles, he was willing to jettison whatever might resemble one as needed.

POPSA missile defense system might be nice now... I wish I could stop reading about this kinda' stuff. Every day it's something worse. At every turn Obama undermines the security of us and our allies....and those in Congress seem so fixated on passing a sinking Health Care Bill to realize that it's NOT our first priority. Those who do not see the horrific danger that a nuclear Iran poses have their heads in the sand.

POPSAll Hail Lord Mockton Leading Climate Change Denier and Advocate of Incarcerating AIDS Carriers Global warming is not the first topic that Monckton has taken extreme positions on. He created an uproar in his 1987 article for The American Spectator when he wrote, "There is only one way to stop AIDS. That is to screen the entire population regularly and to quarantine all carriers of the disease for life. Every member of the population should be blood-tested every month ... all those found to be infected with the virus, even if only as carriers, should be isolated compulsorily, immediately, and permanently." This would have included 1.5-3 million Americans at the time.

POPSAnti-Capitalist Protesters Captivated by Copenhagen's Free Sex Offers From Uber-Capitalist Prostitutes John Galt notes the irony. I get a chuckle out of the great dichotomy currently taking place in Copenhagen. Literally thousands of the worlds left wing anti-Capitalists have descended or maybe it is ascended to Copenhagen in an attempt to implement world wide centralized control of the world's nation state economies, world trade and peoples' lives. At the same time, the professional ladies of the evening are offering their services free of charge due to the exceedingly extra high demand for their services that will take place from the huge influx of these anti-Capitalists. The Ladies will more than make up the forgiven fees for their services with the increased resulting demand and tips resulting derived therefrom.. Ladies of the evening applying true Capitalist ideology to make more money from the anti-Capitalists. DougRoss blog http://bit.ly/8R86u5
