Dan Mitchell Explains the Health Care Train Wreck
Humor Break!
This seems to be a French TV commercial. I don’t know what else to say about it except that it is highly creative, and seems to be advertising the creator of the commercial. I thought we needed at least a brief break from disapproving of the policies of the Obama administration.
Besides, it’s funny.

And Their Dogs Welcome their Guys Home
Welcome home! And more videos of the welcome home can be found here. Jonah, who posted this, said “The family cat was apparently so excited she delayed her scheduled nap by 15 seconds.” Well, probably. Cats will be cats, but lovable just the same.

Do You Remember One of the Worst Supreme Court Decisions Ever?
Do you remember Kelo v. City of New London? It involved the constitutional question of eminent domain, which has traditionally allowed governments to condemn privately owned land only for a public purpose such as a needed bridge or a freeway, a use that serves all the people.

Let Your Voice Be Heard
Only massive public opposition has a chance to stop the federal usurpation that the Democrats are planning.
The House Republican Conference has gone to the trouble to list the new commissions, boards, programs, offices, exchanges, councils, administrations, committees, systems, corps, funds, centers, agencies, panels and trusts — one hundred and eleven of them. Each of them [...]

This Is What They’re After. Why Do They Feel The Need To Lie About It?
National Review featured a symposium today, with the question “Can ObamaCare Be Stopped?” The consensus was, yes it can, if Congress starts listening to the American people. The American people are worried about the economy, not health care, which is pretty low on their list of priorities. They think health care should be reformed, [...]
Only a Tiny Amount of CO2, and They Want to Rearrange the Entire Economy!
The percentage of carbon dioxide (CO2) is the atmosphere is really very small. The percentage of the CO2 that is derived from human causes is very, very small. Most of the CO2 in the atmosphere rises from the sea and has nothing to do with people at all.

Green Porn!
Environmental extremists in the United Kingdom are probably even “greener” than our own native eco-extremists, but this commercial shown on British television steps over any number of lines. Truth is just one of them.
After more than 350 public complaints, the U.K.’s Advertising Standards Authority is reviewing the commercial for “scaremongering” and “misleading the public.”

Nick Gillespie Explains $1,400,000,000,000!
The federal government’s spending is far out of control. When pundits try to explain the numbers — the very BIG numbers — it is more confusing than enlightening. Millions, most of us get. When you get to billions and trillions, it is just very hard to relate.
