John Stossel Leaves ABC to Join Fox News

[August]

Maybe he won't listen to you Aramike but maybe he'll listen to this excellent article written by Democrat party activist and writer Camille Pagilia.

By foolishly trying to reduce all objections to healthcare reform to the malevolence of obstructionist Republicans, Democrats have managed to destroy the national coalition that elected Obama and that is unlikely to be repaired. If Obama fails to win reelection, let the blame be first laid at the door of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, who at a pivotal point threw gasoline on the flames by comparing angry American citizens to Nazis. It is theoretically possible that Obama could turn the situation around with a strong speech on healthcare to Congress this week, but after a summer of grisly hemorrhaging, too much damage has been done. At this point, Democrats' main hope for the 2012 presidential election is that Republicans nominate another hopelessly feeble candidate. Given the GOP's facility for shooting itself in the foot, that may well happen.

Heh, I doubt it he'll listen to anyone ... until it becomes the party line.

Is now the time to show the ACORN videos from Baltimore and Washington?

OOOOH!! A political thread!!

Take a look at this:

I wonder how many Teabaggers were in the 1.4% of "working households" that had to pay more taxes? Or make $350,000 a year or more, and thus be subject to the surcharge to pay for Obama's health plan?

As for John Stossel: whatever. Going to Fox lowers his credibility, as Fox is an obvious propaganda organ.

Just out of curiosity...

Aren't the Bush Tax Cuts going to expire next year? If so, doesn't that mean that there are not really any Obama Tax Cuts?
