    Consider the following 20 beliefs from the imaginary world where liberals live.  The “Affordable Care Act” will reduce the cost and increase the quality of health care, because if you want something done efficiently and economically, then you want unionized government bureaucracies to handle it.  We don’t have a spending problem  It is morally acceptable to borrow massive amounts of money from our grandchildren to support our own current consumption.  The 22 trillion dollars spent on the War on Poverty was quite successful in reducing the number of people in poverty.  The Social Security Program...
  • Republicans Sweep Through Texas, But More Voters Stay Home

    The Texas GOP woke up this morning feeling extremely positive about yesterday’s results. Wendy Davis got destroyed, Pete Gallego lost his U.S. House seat, and the Texas Senate is now one seat away from being Democrat filibuster-proof thanks to Konni Burton. The debate over the future of Republican dominance in Texas appears to be over for now, but Texans are leaving the political process in droves. After the 1994 gubernatorial election between George W. Bush and Ann Richards, voter turner dropped significantly. 1994’s turnout was just over 50%, but since then turnout in gubernatorial elections years has never surpassed 38%....

  • Angelina Jolie 'open' to entering politics [Because she has a 'responsibility']

    The Telegraph ^ | 11/4/2014 | Harriet Alexander
    Angelina Jolie has said she could consider a career in politics, describing herself as “open” to a life of diplomacy or public service. Jolie, who last month was made an honorary dame by the Queen for her campaigning work fighting sexual violence, has often been asked if she would consider swapping acting for politics. But in an interview for the December issue of Vanity Fair magazine, which goes on sale on November 11, she said that, for the first time, she was warming to the idea. “When you work as a humanitarian, you are conscious that politics have to be...

  • Some Pre/Post Election Advice from Sun Tzu

    11/03/2014 7:14:52 AM PST · by Sean_Anthony · 5 replies
    Canada Free Press ^ | 11/03/14 | Jim O'Neill
    I pray that we never need to put Sun Tzu’s advice to the test – but as the saying goes: “Better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.” As the elections on November 4th draw ever nearer I would like to share some words of advice from Sun Tzu’s (circa 544–496 BC) classic ‘The Art of War’. Given the apathetic/indoctrinated/dumbed-down nature of a large segment of the American electorate these days, I do not take a decisive conservative (read that as “less government”) victory as being a given. My attitude is one of...
  • Erza Klein Reveals How He Became an Idiot

    Townhall.com ^ | November 3, 2014 | John Ransom
    Ezra Klein has a new raison d'être. He wants to get the politics out of everything. Yes, the guy who set up a website to coordinate the attacks on Sarah Palin in 2008; the guy who used his blog on the Washington Post to argue many false arguments on behalf of Obama, including all the stuff he got wrong on Obamacare; the guy who cemented the Post’s place as the largely irrelevant, largely laughable post-internet dinosaur and press office for Democrat policies, says that everything has become politicized. And he deplores it. He quotes a report from Stanford:"Partisans discriminate against...
  • Should Pastors Endorse Candidates From The Pulpit?

    11/03/2014 4:58:04 AM PST · by LeoMcNeil · 24 replies
    A group called Alliance Defending Freedom organized a group of around 1,600 pastors who endorsed candidates from the pulpit in the weeks leading up to tomorrows election. Since the 1950’s the IRS has banned 501(c)(3) tax exempt churches from engaging in political activity, including endorsing candidates. The IRS has never enforced the law. Every few years the government sends out warning letters but it’s never actually taken the law to court. They likely know it wouldn’t be upheld by the Supreme Court. The Alliance Defending Freedom appears to be a conservative group and as such their 1,600 pastors appear to...
