The most glaring mistake was the failure of Huckabee and Coulter to mention that the Dems stuffed Obamacare down our throats without a single Rep vote and the stimulus with just one or two Reps. So much for Obama trying to be bipartisan. Huckabee and Coulter missed a huge softball down the middle of the plate.
Huckabee and Coulter also did a poor job on the leaks. The NYT article by Sanger quotes members of Obama's NSC team who were in the room when these decisions were made. Liz Cheney on Fox made the most cogent comments on the situation and didn't rule out Obama's involvement like Huckabee did. Huckabee called it absurd that Obama would be involved. Nonsense. This is the most political WH ever. National security be damned if it stands in the way of Obama being reelected.
Agree with you on the observation about teachers, fireman, and policemen. The Dems always trot these out when they want the Feds to bail out the states. The fact is that most state and local employees are not those three. And the states must balance the budget. They can't print money. So the federal government, which borrows 42 cents of every federal dollar spent, must bail out the states? Where is the money coming from? China? And it is a temporary fix as the Porkulus bill proved.
The federal government is bankrupt. The entitlement programs will eventually consume every federal dollar if they are not reformed. As Liz Cheney mentioned, "If more government spending is the solution, then Greece should be experiencing a new Golden Age."
Good observations all. Huckabee has a huge problem with wanting to be a nice guy ... he needs a little Donald Trump in him. I would not put anything past Obama including the leaks.
Where’s the liberal outrage over the selected drone bombings that also kill children and other innocents?
I think it was Krauthammer who said something like, “I’m not necessarily against it, but it doesn’t play well with the indignation expressed by libs over waterboarding, etc.”
Waterboarding never killed anybody, even the recipient much less bystanders.
I also was a bit disppointed by the ABC SHow (its the only one I saw since I didn’t wake up to 10:45). I thought having Coulter and Van Jones would be great. Usually these shows dont get alot of people interupting each other. Perhaps thats because we have liberals and mod/left republicans on there who basically agree with each other plus George Will can sum up his opinion in 3 or 4 quick sentences. I felt like Ann must have be jacked up on the caffine today. She seemed to lack a focus. George S definately lost control of the show with all the interuptions.
