    Attracted by a national bus tour organized by conservative groups, about 500 people on Courthouse Square raged Thursday against President Barack Obama, cheering wildly as speakers accused the president of leading the nation into socialism. The day after Mr. Obama's congressional address on health care reform, the 34-city Tea Party Express rolled into the city where Vice President Joseph Biden once lived, aiming to unravel Mr. Obama's plans for health care reform and much of the rest of his agenda. The tour, accompanied by a CNN bus and national reporters and scheduled to end with a large rally Saturday in...

    A few weeks back, I submitted a letter on Barack Obama’s eligibility (“Raise the question,” published Aug. 23). Most of the comments from other readers reflected the opinion that I was flat wrong. Sorry to tell you folks, but a young guy has come forward and has signed a court document stating that he has obtained a copy of Barry Soetoro’s original birth certificate. He traveled to Kenya and paid a guard who was guarding this document in cash so the guard would turn a blind eye while he made a copy. This young man will be in big trouble...
  • Obama's unemployment shuffle: The job market keeps getting worse

    Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. said last week, "The Recovery Act has played a significant role in changing the trajectory of our economy and changing the conversation about the economy in this country." In lock step with the Obama administration, the media dutifully reports that job losses are getting smaller each month. This rosy outlook depends on a selective use of government data. In reality, the unemployment rate is rising. The Bureau of Labor Statistics Household Survey data offer the broadest and most accurate short-term measure of the job market. They show that from February through August, the economy...

    Korean Consortium Buys AIG Building for Bargain Price SEPTEMBER 11, 2009 08:03 Korean capital has advanced into Wall Street for the first time by purchasing a high-rise commercial building in the U.S. financial center. A consortium led by Kumho Investment Bank last week paid in full 150 million U.S. dollars to buy the AIG headquarters building after being selected as the preferred bidder. The consortium beat out 30 other consortia from 17 countries in June. The Kumho-led consortium held a housewarming party by inviting dignitaries the day when it received ownership rights to the skyscraper. Attending the event were Elizabeth...
  • Obama's healthcare speech wins over public but senators remain skeptical

    The day after the most important speech of his presidency , Barack Obama had the satisfaction of a poll showing that one in seven Americans who watched it had changed their minds to back his health reforms. But there was little sign of a shift among the small group of senators who may decide the fate of his proposals. While Democrats and a majority of voters welcomed a speech that demanded universal, affordable health insurance as a “moral” choice, congressional Republicans remained united in their scepticism about how Mr Obama would pay for it. There was one possible exception —...
  • Policyholders could pay more under Obama plan

    The Assocated Press (hosted on Google) ^ | September 11, 2009 | Tom Murphy and Linda Johnson
    If President Barack Obama gets what he wants in his health care plan — covering all Americans and barring insurers from denying coverage — some analysts say individuals could wind up paying higher premiums. The Obama plan would impose new costs on insurance companies, which would probably then raise the prices customers pay for coverage. Employers also would likely pass on some of their higher costs to employees. An individual in a typical plan might have to pay up to $780 more for the same coverage in the first year of Obama's plan, estimates Erik Gordon, a health care analyst...

    President Obama wants to rewrite the calendar. As far as he's concerned, the year has progressed from June to July to September. August is to be forever erased from our minds and our hearts. His speech to a joint session of Congress was delivered as if the late unpleasantness of last month never happened, or as if it were all simply "bickering" and "games" on the otherwise smooth, consensual path to reordering one-sixth of the nation's economy in one fell swoop. "Now is the season for action," Obama intoned. In other words, please don't bother me with your inconvenient Congressional...

    Kim Jong-il 'Has Not Appointed a Successor' North Korean leader Kim Jong-il is well and has not appointed a successor, the North's no. 2 official claimed Thursday. Kim Yong-nam, president of the Presidium of North Korea's Supreme People's Assembly told Japan's Kyodo news agency Monday, "The matter of inheriting the revolutionary traditions is important. But this has nothing to do with the successor issue." "There has been no talk of succession at this moment," he added. Kim Yong-nam was interviewed in Pyongyang. He denied reports that Kim Jong-il has appointed his third son Jong-un as his heir apparent, which he...

    Just when the world is in the palms of your hands, your nose begins to itch. It’s been 8.5 months since the “Won” and his gaffer vice president entered office and the only “crises” I can detect are fantasized by their administration. Joe Biden, more cagy than credited, was merely setting the scenario by which this president chooses to rule: “imagined” disasters, a.k.a., health care, stimuli, cap and trade, etc. True evil does exist in the world, but our Dear Leader seems quite content to insert his own misery in his attempt to bring us all down to the lowest...
