CLINTON BOOSTS NORTH KOREA
‘REFORM’ AT SENIORS’ EXPENSE
Published in the New York Post on July 31, 2009

GATES AND CROWLEY ARE OK, BUT WHAT ABOUT OBAMA?
I am now convinced that Sgt. Crowley is a good cop (I never doubted it)and that Gates is a good professor. They both may have overreacted, understandably, to stress and things got heated and out of hand.

OBAMA RETREAT ON PUBLIC OPTION WILL NOT HELP ELDERLY AMERICANS
President Obama’s retreat from his previous insistence on establishing a government owned insurance company to compete with private health insurers will do nothing at all to mitigate the massive rationing in medical care to the elderly his legislation will force. Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, in a rare moment of profundity, said [...]
ELDERLY SWING AGAINST OBAMA PLAN
The most ominous signal yet for the Obama health care plan emerged in the poll by Scott Rasmussen released today. While public support for the plan fell to a new low (42% support, 53% oppose — down five points in two weeks), the elderly emerged as the strongest opposition group. Those over 65 [...]
CASH FOR CLUNKERS: TRADE IN AMERICAN; BUY FOREIGN
The only part of the stimulus program that is working, the cash-for-clunkers program is, in reality, a subsidy to foreign car companies, proving that Barack Obama is the best president Japan ever had.
The Department of Transportation reports that the ten leading trade-ins are all American branded cars while six of the top ten new cars [...]
