Holy moly! [Darleen Click]

h/t Mary Katherine

a reminder

On his show last evening, Mark Levin broke down how all of the legal and societal dislocation we’re seeing and feeling under fundamental transformation is tied directly to the subversion or deconstruction of our Constitution, rendering us a representative republic in title only, ummoored from the original ideals and intentions of the Founders and Framers. I’m going to now take that one step further, even at the risk of sounding

On “substandard plans” and the new egalitarianism

So. Earlier today I wrote that “after a nap I hope to return and post on the now prevalent progressive talking point that cancellation of ‘substandard’ (read: not egalitarian plans written by social engineers and progressive Utopians) plans is actually a good thing.  It’s just that the bulk of Americans who aren’t them [progressives and ACA boosters] are too stupid to recognize it, and too ill-equipped even to pretend to

On the Upton plan

Earlier today, I received this alert while lying in my sick bed. From the Washington Examiner:  “BREAKING: Obama will allow insurers to continue sale of canceled policies”.  Which was, obviously, just President’s attempt to get out in front of the growing rebellion from vulnerable Democrats up for re-election, and the “bi-partisan” Republicans who believe they’ve devised and ingenious political plan to cause the President “excruciating political pain,” as our friend

Sickness falls; and also, I don’t feel well

Well, I’ve relapsed into some sort of chest cold that is causing me to cough up what looks like parts of my spleen.  On top of that, Satchel has picked up a stomach bug, despite our having gotten him his flu shot early.  Our littlest one is coughing a bit and has a runny nose, but that’s not slowing him down.  So all hell has broken loose around here, and

“Introversion isn’t Obama’s problem, his inability to tell the truth is”

Geoff B sent along this link, which I’d also seen in my morning email, of a column by Gene Healy.  Who doesn’t pull punches.  Making him an extremist whose unhelpful rhetoric is sure to drive away the illegal alien vote. It never fails. Whenever a president’s approval ratings tank, out come the deep think pieces about how the president’s personality flaws explain his political dilemma and ours. Vanity Fair’s Todd

From the “there’s hope yet” files: “Repeal of “Stand Your Ground” Soundly Defeated in Florida”

Breitbart: An attempted repeal of Florida’s “Stand Your Ground” law was voted down in that state’s house judiciary committee on November 7. The bill offered to repeal it was HB-4003. And according to LegalInsurrection.com, HB-4003 would not only have repealed stand your ground but would have also diminished Floridians’ right to self-defense in other ways, other settings. The repeal was offered by state representative Alan B. Williams (Democrat). Because he

Matt Lauer: Concern Troll for the GOP; Sarah Palin: Having none of it

Which of course makes her part of the problem, as many former McCain-staffers turned Democrat consultants will gleefully tell you. Again and again and again I’ve written “it’s the ruling class vs. the rest of us,” and the narrative is being pieced together just as we knew it would be: Cuccinelli’s loss in VA is yet another death knell for the “extremists” in the TEA Party who can’t win; meanwhile,

I now own a $15K 2-carat diamond ring … [Darleen Click]

Yes, I haven’t paid for it yet. And, well, yes, it is still only sitting in my shopping cart. But if it’s good enough for Obama … The fight over how to define the new health law’s success is coming down to one question: Who counts as an Obamacare enrollee? Health insurance plans only count subscribers as enrolled in a health plan once they’ve submited a payment. That is when
