    I was delighted with your Mark Steyn dialogue on healthcare post:
    Waiting beside the mailbox of history…
    A preview of my upcoming Talk Radio Watch column, featuring this highlight of the week, from Mark Steyn’s guest hosting gig for Rush Limbaugh on Monday:

    A worthy use of 8:30 minutes of your time.
    Somewhere on the road to Hades…the temperature will be rising and then you tell ’em to send their procedure “Straight to Hell” along with the appropriate blessing.
    Circumventing the the Constitution by a ‘Demon passing’ ain’t gonna work.
    How do Bostonions spell “TEA PARTY”?

  2. Good lord, Fox News simply crushes the so-called competition. It’s not even close. One must marvel at the level of cognitive dissonance from those who dismiss Fox News as a fringe or extremist cable network.

  3. Related: Bam Bam, for the third time in as many weeks, matches his record low approval rating of -21 according to Rasmussen.

    I won’t be surprised to see him beat this record in the coming days.

  4. Obama never answers questions the way he never delivers what Americans truly need. Anyone who still believes this bozo deserves a second term must have thrown their brain away before voting for him the first time.

  5. Noonan shilled for this Kenyan. She is dead to me no matter what paper carries her columns.

  6. ” We shouldn’t, he added, concern ourselves with “the procedural issues.”
    … coming from a constitutional law professor, this statement is particularily creepy and revealing.

  7. True enough, Osumashi Kinyobe, but forget the second term (which I agree will certainly never happen). This “Health Care” monstrosity is on the verge of lurching into unholy existance right now. Nothing since 9/11 has been this important. D*mn this guy, and d*mn Noonan for ever supporting him. I saw what he was from the get-go, and I’m just some idiot, so what’s her excuse? I thought she was supposed to be a Reaganite.
    America will be a socialist country if Obama pulls this off.

  8. This reminds me of Karen Redman in 2005:
    “We won’t observe future losses of confidence votes in Parliament.”
    Yeah right…pitchforks and torchlight time folks…
    If you thought your vote didn’t matter before wait until this crew is through.

  9. Black Mamba and Mazzuchelli, I agree:
    That it’s “Noonan at her best” doesn’t say much, especially after Noonan at her possible worst: her simpering, fawning over Obama, like some teenie-bopper (There’s an old, but apt expression). And Baer was barely competent in that interview. The only conceivable explanation of claims that Baer was tough on Obama is the comparison with the a**-kissing, incompetent, malfeasance of the rest of the media. Baer should have slapped him silly. Obama lied and dissembled throughout, as always; and it was he that kept and interrupting Baer. For Noonan to claim that he deserves respect is an outrage. Respect for what? What’s he ever done to earn our respect? He was an affirmative action appointee to the Harvard Law Review; he was a lecturer, not a professor, of constitutional law at U Chicago, where to parroted Alinsky’s legal theory; he was offered tenure on the basis of nothing, not a single publication: it would have been an affirmative action appointment had he taken it, and so one he would not have earned. He is an affirmative action president bent on destruction, of the economy, of the constitution, of wealth, of the basic values that made America great. He lied his way into office, and he’s lying his way through this legislation. He deserves no respect for occupying a respected office; in fact, when he vacates, they’ll have to hose the place down.

  10. I repeat a comment I made last evening. The way things are going south of the border, it might be prudent to take some evening courses in Mandarin.

  11. I thought I had read Noonan for the last time 18 months ago. This one is better, but one can do just as well reading Mickey Kaus on Huffpo.
    She still doesn’t get it. She writes as though this is just some partisan procedural wrangling turning a bit messier than usual, without any thought as to why Obama might want it this way.
    I do agree with her that this is “the most revealing and important broadcast interview of Barack Obama ever,” but that doesn’t say much. Why have she and the rest of the MSM given him a free pass? No mention of the the “earthquake in Hawaii?”
    Mark Steyn gets it. It’s not about healthcare, it’s about making government bigger, too big to fail and too big to ever reform. It’s the long gun registry, but a thousand times bigger and worse. The more flawed the legislation, the more work and money for the government to “fix” it.
    Noonan believes that passing the 2000 page convolution would be a Pyrrhic victory for the Democrats that would “deepen the great divide” but otherwise remains naively optimistic.
    Now should be the time for her to say, “It’s over!” She may write beautifully, but unless she starts using some of her grey matter she’ll just be footnoted as one of the useful idiots.

  12. Krauthammer now figures the demon pass will pass on Sunday. That it is unconstitutional is almost without doubt. Expect several (dozens?) of suits and constitutional challenges starting as early as Monday from state AGs across the country.
    And with this “victory” in hand and dozens of house and senate dems political dead men walking with nothing to lose expect passing cap and trade to be the next no holds barred vote to be pushed quickly followed by immigration.
    Alinsky must be smiling in hell.

  13. Hey don’t anyone here get any big ideas about countering the prevailing anti-Christian propaganda of SDA with facts or Kate will delete all your posts like she did mine.

  14. Anybody look at the massive ratings lead FOX has and wonder why our cable suppliers make it so difficult for Canadians to access? Assume CNN is still the “default” cable news network with any basic package.
    On another FOX access note; Anybody remember being able to watch FOX on WestJet and now you can’t? Went to Phoenix in November and they had FOX. By the New Years trip to Mexico, all you could get was CTV Newsnet (gag me), not even CNN.
    Love to know who made that decision at WestJet and why?
