Dang It! More fun from the looney left on health care
FROM THE AP: WASHINGTON – House Democrats are crafting a plan that would require all Americans to carry health insurance and would help families making less than $88,000 pay the premiums. Employers, too, would have to help foot the bill.

Proof that government handouts work
This just in from the AP: “More than half of all homeowners who had their loans modified to make the payments more affordable in the first half of the year are already in default again.” Imagine that. This is exactly what any normal well adjusted intelligent human being would expect. Yet, somehow Uncle Sugar never [...]
