When you're in a hole, the first order of business is stop digging. They talk "freedom of choice," but liberals are too contemptuous of dissenting people to allow them to choose freely how to live their lives without ridicule and disdain.

Sometimes politicians, journalists and others exclaim; "It's just a taxcut for the rich!" and it is just accepted to be fact, withoutquestioning it. But what does that really mean?Just in case you are not completely clear on this issue, the followingmight help. Let's put tax cuts in terms everyone can understand.Suppose that every day, ten men go out for beer and the bill for allten comes to $100. If they paid their bill the way we pay our taxes, it would go something like this:The first four men (the poorest) would pay nothing.The fifth would pay $1.The sixth would pay $3.The seventh would pay $7.The eighth would pay $12.The ninth would pay $18.The tenth man (the richest) would pay $59.So, that's what they decided to do.The ten men drank in the bar every day and seemed quite happy with thearrangement, until one day, the owner threw them a curve. "Since youare all such good customers," he said, "I'm going to reduce the cost ofyour daily beer by $20. "Drinks for the ten now cost just $80.The group still wanted to pay their bill the way we pay our taxes sothe first four men were unaffected. They would still drink for free.What about the other six men, those paying the tab? How could theydivide the $20 windfall so that everyone would get his 'fair share?'They realized that $20 divided by six is $3.33. But if they subtractedthat from everybody's share, then the fifth man and the sixth man wouldeach end up being paid to drink his beer. So, the bar owner suggestedthat it would be fair to reduce each man's bill by roughly the sameamount, and he proceeded to work out the amounts each should pay.And so:
The fifth man, like the first four, now paid nothing (100% savings).The sixth now paid $2 instead of $3 (33% savings).The seventh now pay $5 instead of $7 (28% savings).The eighth now paid $9 instead of $12 (25% savings).The ninth now paid $14 instead of $18 (22% savings).The tenth now paid $49 instead of $59 (16% savings).Each of the six was better off than before. And the first fourcontinued to drink for free. But once outside the restaurant, the menbegan to compare their savings. "I only got a dollar out of the20, "declared the sixth man.
He pointed to the tenth man," but he got $10!"
"Yeah, that's right," exclaimed the fifth man. "I only saved a dollar, too. It's unfair that he got ten times more than I!"
"That's true!!" shouted the seventh man. "Why should he get $10 back when I got only two? The wealthy get all the breaks!"
"Wait a minute," yelled the first four men in unison. "We didn't get anything at all. The system exploits the poor!"The nine men surrounded the tenth and beat him up.
The next night the tenth man didn't show up for drinks, so the nine satdown and had beers without him. But when it came time to pay the bill,they discovered something important. They didn't have enough moneybetween all of them for even half of the bill!And that, boys and girls, journalists and college professors, is howour tax system works. The people who pay the highest taxes get the mostbenefit from a tax reduction. Tax them too much, attack them for beingwealthy, and they just may not show up anymore. In fact, they mightstart drinking overseas where the atmosphere is somewhat friendlier.
Merry Christmas!

Gore Lashes Out...
Several scientists in the report said many colleagues share their skepticism about man-made climate change but don't speak out publicly for fear of retribution, according to the report.
"Many of my colleagues with whom I spoke share these views and report on their inability to publish their skepticism in the scientific or public media," atmospheric scientist Nathan Paldor, professor of Dynamical Meteorology and Physical Oceanography at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, said in the report.

Mike Huckabee apologized to Mitt Romney on Wednesday for saying, "Don't Mormons believe that Jesus and the devil are brothers?"
Mormonism teaches that Jesus and Lucifer are brothers who competed for the opportunity to become the savior of planet earth. Jesus' plan won approval and Lucifer rebelled and became the tempter and deceiver of planet Earth.President Spencer W. Kimball wrote" "Long before you were born a program was developed by your creators ... The principal personalities in this great drama were a Father Elohim, perfect in wisdom, judgment, and person, and two sons, Lucifer and Jehovah." (Teachings of Spencer W. Kimball, p. 32-33). James Talmage explains who Jehovah is: "Jesus Christ was Jehovah...Jesus Christ, who is the Jehovah of the Old Testament" (Doctrines of Salvation, vol.1, p.11,27).Milton R. Hunter (one of the LDS General Authorities) explains "The appointment of Jesus to be Savior of the world was contested by one of the other sons of God. He was called Lucifer…this spirit-brother of Jesus desperately tried to become the Savior of mankind" (The Gospel Through the Ages, p.15, 1945).Joseph Smith stated: "The contention in heaven was...Jesus said there would be certain souls that would not be saved; and the Devil said he could save them all, and laid his plans before the grand council, who gave their vote in favour of Jesus Christ. So the Devil rose up in rebellion against God, and was cast down" (Journal of Discourses, vol. 6, p. 8)."And Satan came among them, saying: I am also a son of God" (Pearl of Great Price, Moses 5:17). See also Mormon Doctrine, pp.192, 546-47, 589-90 and Gospel Principles p.15-16.Mormonism teaches that Jesus is only one of many saviors who are each responsible for the salvation of the population of other planets like Earth. Mormon men are working with the promise that they, too, will eventually become gods and be given a planet of their own to populate. This will be accomplished by their intercourse with many wives who will bear millions of spirit children to inhabit the bodies of the people on their planet.
Just as the Muslims believe that the old Testament is scripture, they look to the Quran as their holy book. Same with the Mormons. They believe the bible is holy, "in so far as it is translated correctly," and only their church leaders can say which parts are translated correctly. If any part of the bible goes against the book of Mormon, that portion of the bible is thrown out. I've seen bishops black out portions of the bible for teenagers that they believe were not translated correctly. And, their early leaders DID teach that Satan and Jesus were brothers, that Adam was a god, and that temple mormons can still marry multiple times for heavenly purposes, but only have one earthly wife. What scares me about electing a mormon who uses the bible to answer questions when asked about Mormonism is that he doesn't take the time to do true research on his own religion, but follows it blindly, like so many 8 year olds I've personally seen stand up and give "testimony" that Joseph Smith was a prophet of god, when at 8, NO ONE can give testimony based on personal conviction. What scares me about electing a Mormon president who doesn't use his own scripture, the Book of Mormon, to answer questions when asked about his religion is that he'll answer questions and tell people what he thinks they want to hear, use their words and not his own, and pull the wool over people's eyes by not researching a question thoroughly enough and with enough historical accuracy that it can't be proven incorrect. Any man who would not know enough about his own religion to answer that "although it is true that the Doctrine of Covenants shows that the belief that Jesus and Satan were brothers was taught by early leaders of the church, we do not teach that or believe that now. All religions have man made errors, but we have an error free God," is just spouting what he's been told to say since a young age, without taking the time to make sure what he's saying is correct. In the case of Mormonism, religion has everything to do with the decision to elect a Mormon president or not. Their religion isn't just what they do on Sunday, it's who they are, all the way down to their temple garments. So, yes, Huckabee was correct. They have taught that in the past. That's the answer that should have been given, not the "dig myself out of a hole" answer that was given. That answer shows forethought and the ability to lie and hide the truth instead of being truthful and honest, and believe me, Mormonism is not about being open, honest and truthful... just try going into the temple without being a temple Mormon, you won't make it to the door. Why all the secrets? Haven't we as a country had ENOUGH secrets?

Only weeks after voting for a resolution that "recognizes the Islamic faith as one of the great religions of the world," nine Democrats in the U.S. House refused to vote for a Christmas resolution that condemns the worldwide persecution of Christians. ...The Christmas resolution, like the Ramadan resolution, decried the violence that targets religion around the world...."Amazingly, all but two of the representatives who answered "present" or voted against the Christmas resolution voted in favor of a resolution recognizing Ramadan, even though much of the language was similar," the group said...."Notice that the Christmas resolution uses similar language. It is astonishing that those who supported the Ramadan Resolution would vote against the Christmas Resolution," Liberty Counsel said...."It astounds me that any member of Congress would oppose legislation that recognizes the important of Christmas in our country, particularly in light of the fact that earlier this year Congress passed two separate resolutions honoring the Hindu and Islamic religions…"

"I thought it would be wrong for me to rob her of the chance to be what I thought she should be," said Bill Clinton of Hillary Rodham. "She laughed and said, 'First I love you and, second, I'm not going to run for anything, I'm too hardheaded.'"
Brent Bozell: Media Blatantly Cover for Clintons
Can identity politics get any more ridiculous? In trying to establish cred with minorities, civil rights leader Andrew Young says what could be nominated for the most ridiculous quote this electoral season:
In a media interview posted online, Young also quipped that Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton has her husband behind her, and that "Bill is every bit as black as Barack."
"He's probably gone with more black women than Barack," Young said of former President Clinton, drawing laughter from a live television audience. Young, 75, was quick to follow his comment on Bill Clinton with the disclaimer, "I'm clowning."Are you kidding me?

As many recognize, the latest NIE on Iran’s nuclear weapons program directly contradicts what the U.S. Intelligence Community was saying just two years previously. And it appears that this about-face was very recent. How recent?
Consider that on July 11, 2007, roughly four or so months prior to the most recent NIE’s publication, Deputy Director of Analysis Thomas Fingar gave the following testimony before the House Armed Services Committee (emphasis added):
Iran and North Korea are the states of most concern to us. The United States’ concerns about Iran are shared by many nations, including many of Iran’s neighbors. Iran is continuing to pursue uranium enrichment and has shown more interest in protracting negotiations and working to delay and diminish the impact of UNSC sanctions than in reaching an acceptable diplomatic solution. We assess that Tehran is determined to develop nuclear weapons--despite its international obligations and international pressure. This is a grave concern to the other countries in the region whose security would be threatened should Iran acquire nuclear weapons.
The authors are known to outright oppose Pres Bush's policies, and now all of a sudden, we are to believe the intelligence? Without questioning? Clinton says we must now return to diplomancy. Diplomacy for what? If they aren't doing anything, what do we need to engage in diplomacy for? I gues even Ahmadinejad himself is a liar and the report knows stuff that even he doesn't. I mean, he's admitted developing enriched uranium, what else do you need? Is the world insane? Can it be convinced of anything in the name of anti-Bush?
WSJ Questions CIA Iran Flip Flop
Besides, if the NIE report is right, then it was "Shock & Awe" that was the deciding factor for Iran. Nothing else.

More confirmation that you can't bury the truth forever. Previous studies done years ago were buried for the sake of the pro-death crowd. It seems the right to kill a human being that hasn't had a chance to commit a misdemeanor, let alone a crime punishable by death, is more important than even the health of the women they are pretending to protect.

Novak: Old pro Democrats who had been in awe of Sen. Hillary Clinton's perfect campaign believe she made her first serious blunder last Monday by indicating to CBS's Katie Couric that her election as president is inevitable.When Couric inquired "how disappointed will you be" if she does not win, Clinton replied: "Well, it will be me." "Clearly," the CBS anchor persisted, "you have considered" the "possibility of losing"? "No, I haven't," said the senator. "So you never even consider the possibility?" "I don't. I don't."
Saint Hillary is being praised again by the Associated Press for how wonderful she is because she "stayed calm" during the NH hostage thing at her headquarters.

The "debate" involved many questions designed not so much to highlight the candidates' differences (other than Rudy Giuliani and Mitt Romney on immigration) but to place the entire conservative agenda in a negative light.
At last count, at least 7 of these supposedly "undecided Republicans" were Democratic supporters of one candidate or another. Clinton News Network knew enough to fly the gay General in who posed a loaded question. Can anyone use Google? It's easy to find their backgrounds. These are lying liberals....both the candidates and their media are willing to cheat to win. If we aren't careful and quick to shut this down, we will be facing a situation similar to that of Venezuala. A one party government without arms to fix the tyranny. Buchanan is right with his new book.

His inspiration comes from the research by Prof Shinya Yamanaka at Kyoto University, which suggests a way to create human embryo stem cells without the need for human eggs, which are in extremely short supply, and without the need to create and destroy human cloned embryos, which is bitterly opposed by the pro life movement.

I believe that the Bush administration has allowed this situation to worsen and fester because they won’t have any diplomatic relations of any sort with Iran. So I would do is to immediately begin that kind of negotiation, and I wouldn’t ask the Iranians to give up their quest for nuclear power or anything else. "--Thursday night Dem Debate transcript

It's enough to make you suspect that breeding fear and paranoia within the press corps is itself part of the Clinton campaign's strategy. It is.

That way, others are too scared ask any reasonable questions. No, it was Slick Willie who set the precident during his campaign and presidency. NOT Pres Bush.

Hillary takes lesson from FEMA and plants questions
You all remember this? An Iowan asked Clinton why she voted for Kyl-Lieberman and she verbally berated him as a "plant" from another campaign. She apparently only likes questions from her own plants.
Liberals wouldn't lift a finger to stop the torturing -- to the point of destroying -- unborn human life. But put a terrorist in the block and watch them spring into sensitive-soul mode. Rosa Brooks epitomizes the mindset in her current LA Times column, "Torture: the new abortion."

"Carbon-free fairies do not magically drop windmills onto moutaintops," said Jack Spencer of the Heritage Foundation in an October 29, 2007 commentary. "For example, 2 million tons of concrete, about double what a nuclear plant requires, must be produced and delivered to anchor enough windmills to match one nuclear plant's energy production. Just producing this concrete emits the CO2 equivalent of flying a Boeing 747 from New York to London 450 times."

Accused of creating a bogus Red Scare and smearing countless innocent victims in a five-year reign of terror, Senator Joseph McCarthy is universally remembered as a demagogue, a bully, and a liar. History has judged him such a loathsome figure that even today, a half century after his death, his name remains synonymous with witch hunts. But that conventional image is all wrong, as veteran journalist and author M. Stanton Evans reveals in this groundbreaking book. The long-awaited Blacklisted by History, based on six years of intensive research, dismantles the myths surrounding Joe McCarthy and his campaign to unmask Communists, Soviet agents, and flagrant loyalty risks working within the U.S. government. Evans’s revelations completely overturn our understanding of McCarthy, McCarthyism, and the Cold War.
"McCarthyism" is the text book on how liberals re-write history -- the sound chamber of liberal denunciations, their phony victimhood as they demean and oppress their enemies, their false imputation of dishonesty to their opponents, their legalization of every policy dispute, their ability to engage in lock-step shouting campaigns, and the black motives concealed by their endless cacophony.

U.S. voting-machine shocker: Does Hugo Chavez own 'em?
Oct. 28, 2006: Just 10 days before Americans voted in last year's midterm congressional elections that could result in a historic shift of power, the federal government was investigating whether anti-American Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez controlled the company that operates electronic voting machines in 17 states.
Many questions had already been raised about the reliability of the new machines, which leave no paper trails for the purposes of recounts. But federal officials were investigating whether Smartmatic, owner of Sequoia Voting Systems, was secretly controlled by the Castroite revolutionary leader of Venezuela who denounced President Bush as Satan in a 2006 United Nations address.
A Smartmatic spokesman admitted the company is 97 percent owned by the four Venezuelan founders – two of them dual citizens. The remainder of the company is owned "by employees of Smartmatic (past and present) and family and acquaintances of the founders."

Rush Limbaugh: 'Bring the firefighters home' Jokingly uses anti-war logic for California wildfire crisis
Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada flatly declared on Tuesday: “One reason why we have the fires in California is global warming.”.....When asked by a reporter if he really believed global warming caused the fires, however, Reid denied ever saying it.
Pelosi and others blaim Iraq. Oh yes the National Guard can shoot the flames with bullets. Truth is, the State and local governments did a great job of handling this crisis (unlike Katrina/Louisiana). Bush's time table for interjecting and taking action is almost exactly the same as that of his action during Katrina (not that he needed to do anything).

As reported earlier Nancy Pelosi and her U.S. House panel approved a resolution last week that condemned Turkish behavior from WWI; back when they became a secular government. They were a completely different country, infuriating Turkish leaders who said ties with their NATO ally would suffer. This offended the Turks so bad, that they recalled their ambassador and are now beating the war drums at the Iraqi border; causing a huge relations problem for President Bush. If he protests much further, he risks losing the supply line we have through this allie natin into Iraq.

It will only get worse as more women choose to have kids later in life, their risk gets higher. If adopted in the U.S. government run health care will eventually have to tell you how old you must be to conceive. This is just one area of health care. Add to that the millions of illegal aliens flooding our country and you can extrapolate the rest.
