  10. So now, apparently the Democrats are going to go ape during the hearings on the “healthcare.gov” “website” on the hill. Personally I think the GOP should hold firm here and keep these rats on the boat. Enjoy the swim bitches, the water looks good.

  11. Thomas Sowell: The War on Achievement.
    The article appeared in the Toronto Sun, Sunday, Nov. 24:
    http://www.creators.com/opinion/thomas-sowell/the-war-against-achievement.html
    “The vision on which the all-encompassing and all-controlling welfare state was built is a vision of widespread helplessness, requiring ever more expanding big government.”
    “The last thing the political left needs, or can even afford, are self-reliant individuals. If such people became the norm, that would destroy not only the agenda and the careers of those on the left …”
    “When President Obama told business owners, ‘You didn’t build that!’ this was just one passing skirmish in the war on achievement.”
    “The very word “achievement” has been replaced by the word “privilege” …”
    There’s not much I can add to the above, except to wonder whether president Obama has built a damn thing in his entire life, including in the past five years.

    “Proposal to bury nuclear waste in Ontario wins local support, sparks U.S. ire”

    But conventional wisdom has been turned on its head in Ontario, where a publicly owned power company wants to entomb waste from its nuclear plants 680 metres below the surface near Lake Huron.”
