This is a funny new ad by the Republican National Committee which makes fun of all the Democrat office-holders around the country who are “bailing out” on President Obama. Excellent use of the emergency slide.

So, you mean we were lied to? Gosh, Washington politicians would never lie to gain our support…
WASHINGTON — When Congress required most Americans to obtain health insurance or pay a penalty, Democrats denied that they were creating a new tax. But in court, the Obama administration and its allies now defend the requirement as an exercise of the government’s “power to lay and collect taxes.”
And that power, they say, is even more sweeping than the federal power to regulate interstate commerce.
Administration officials say the tax argument is a linchpin of their legal case in defense of the health care overhaul and its individual mandate, now being challenged in court by more than 20 states and several private organizations…

On June 18, 2010, Senator Jon Kyl (R-AZ) told the audience at a town hall meeting that during a private, one-on-one meeting with President Obama in the Oval Office, the President told him, regarding securing the southern border:
“The problem is, if we secure the border, then you all won’t have any reason to support ‘comprehensive immigration reform.’” [Audible gasps were heard throughout the audience.] Sen. Kyl continued, “In other words, they’re holding it hostage. They don’t want to secure the border unless and until it is combined with ‘comprehensive immigration reform.’”
Sen. Kyl also said he reminded President Obama that the President and the Congress has an obligation, a duty, to secure the border.
(Okay, you can stop pretending to be surprised now)
This is a new ad from the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC).
The worst oil spill in U.S. history.
And a president who doesn’t seem to care.

A packed house roared with cheers as GOP superstar Sarah Palin took the stage Wednesday night at the Rosemont Theatre.
Introduced to a video with a narrator that said “she’s right here in Barack Obama’s hometown,” Palin stood before an American flag and took on Illinois and its native son.
“This ‘hopey-changey’ thing isn’t what we bargained for,” the former Vice-Presidential candidate told the supportive crowd, adding that she was “glad to be here on the president’s home turf.”
“I almost feel a little bit sorry for the president,” she said. “They expected us to welcome the change. Come November we’re going to show them just how grateful we are.”
She spoke of one of the day’s biggest news stories: the cancellation of the Highland Park High School girl’s basketball trip to Arizona by a superintendent who felt that state’s anti-immigration law was not “aligned with our beliefs and values.”
“Them are fighting words,” Palin said. “They [the students] deserve to go.”
She noted that the school is still sponsoring a trip to China, the Chicago Sun-Times reported.
“You know how they treat girls in China?” Palin said. “It makes no sense.”…

President Obama speaking at a “Nuclear Security Summit” earlier today:
“Whether We Like it or Not, We Remain a Dominant Military Superpower.”
He kept his promises: trillions of new jobs, low-emission unicorns, and rainbow energy…
President Obama is the greatest president ever!

…Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro on Thursday declared passage of American health care reform “a miracle” and a major victory for Obama’s presidency, but couldn’t help chide the United States for taking so long to enact what communist Cuba achieved decades ago.
“We consider health reform to have been an important battle and a success of his (Obama’s) government,” Castro wrote in an essay published in state media, adding that it would strengthen the president’s hand against lobbyists and “mercenaries.”…
And he said it was remarkable that the most powerful country on earth took more than two centuries from its founding to approve something as basic as health benefits for all.
“It is really incredible that 234 years after the Declaration of Independence … the government of that country has approved medical attention for the majority of its citizens, something that Cuba was able to do half a century ago,” Castro wrote…

The Audacity Of Socialism
Barack Obama has styled himself a centrist, but does his record support that claim?
In this series — written during the 2008 campaign — we examine then-Senator Obama’s past, his voting record and the people who’ve served as his advisers and mentors over the years. We show how the facts of Obama’s actions and associations reveal a far more left-leaning tilt to his background — and to his politics…

Massachusetts Republican Senator Scott Brown talked with CNBC’s Larry Kudlow and said that President Obama should “start over” on Health Care Reform. Brown warned Democrats they would pay a high price in 2010 if they jam ObamaCare through using “Reconciliation.”
Brown said, “I’m challenging the President to do better.”
Standby. An impending Chernobyl-like disaster is on the way: Obama has decided to launch the nuclear option on health care – reconciliation.
With no hope of reaching the 60-vote threshold necessary for a Senate victory and the American public growing increasingly against the Obama’s government-run takeover of health care bill, the President has decided that reconciliation is the only way he can get ObamaCare across the finish line and onto his desk.
Forget that 57% of Americans want him to start over on this bill. Forget that he doesn’t even have the 60 necessary “yes” votes from his own Party to pass this bill. The President is willing to do anything possible to force this bill through Congress – because instead of worrying about what the American people want, he’s more concerned with his imposing his own agenda.
What President Obama fails to recognize is that while reconciliation has been used before, in the last 19 reconciliation bills enacted into law, 12 of them were bipartisan and passed with the support of 60 of more Senators – something the President can’t say about his health care bill.
Mr. President, instead of risking a nuclear meltdown down of the health care system by ramming a 2,074 page bill through the Senate, the House, and down the throats of the American public – do everyone a favor and rip up your massive bill and start over.

A Speech Only a Lawyer Could Love
The president in fact managed to make an entire speech without one concrete commitment to securing the freedom, peace, and security of the American people.
He did, however, promise to make the economy his most “urgent” task (as if he can just forget about national security now). Given what he has achieved with the economy so far…we should probably be afraid, very afraid.
