OBAMA
The Thrill is Gone for Obama
The Media Reporters who traveled with the Obama campaign tell horror stories about the organization — dishonesty, rudeness and abysmal access. But those reporters still served up the glowing coverage.

America Has Been Sucker Punched
The unifier, the great post-racial, post-American President, has adopted the street tactics of Chicago thug politics. His ACORN/SEIU/Union goons are beating up decent American citizens at town hall meetings. And with the violence comes vilification: This is turning into a low grade civil war. Are Obama and Pelosi and their allies ratcheting up civil unrest so that they can call in reinforcements?

OBAMACARE
Insult and Injury - How President Obama Thinks and Does Business
President Obama likes to pose as the tribune of the common people, but Americans who show up at town-hall meetings to object to Obama's plans to nationalize health care are, in the words of Obama's Democratic National Committee, "the mob," a bunch of "extremist" yahoos who must be publicly denounced and ridiculed. It's a remarkable piece of condescension and snobbery, but one that is indicative of how President Obama thinks and does business.

Soros Care - Guess who's behind the "grassroots" movement for health care reform?
Most of its component organizations have two things in common: they have no experience or expertise in health care, and virtually all received large, tax-exempt grants from far-Left billionaires like George Soros and Teresa Heinz Kerry. Like the "grassroots" movement for campaign finance reform a decade ago, the public demonstrations for health care reform are largely a Soros-financed operation. Other funding sources include the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the Fannie Mae Foundation, the Ford Foundation, and the Rockefeller Foundation.

Senator: Jamming Through Health Care 'a real mistake'
Pushing a health-care reform package through Congress without significant Republican support would be "a real mistake" for President Barack Obama, Sen. Joseph Lieberman warned Sunday.

'You Are Terrifying Us'
Voters send a message to Washington, and get an ugly response. At the moment the Democrats are looking like something they haven't looked like in years, and that is: desperate. They must know at this point they should not have pushed a national health-care plan. A Democratic operative the other day called it "Hillary's revenge."
What the town-hall meetings represent is a feeling of rebellion, an uprising against change they do not believe in. And the Democratic response has been stunningly crude and aggressive. The president should call in his troops and his Congress and announce a rethinking. There are too many different bills, they're all a thousand pages long, no one has time to read them, no one knows what's going to be in the final one, the public is agitated, the nation's in crisis, the timing is wrong...John Sweeney of the AFL-CIO has announced he'll be sending in union members to the meetings to counter health care's critics. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204908604574334623330098540.html

In the debate over health-care reform, abortion can't be swept aside - By Kathryn Jean Lopez

Subsidizing Abortion - Bill Donohue
Catholic League's Donohue commented on the House health care bill. From 1995 to the present, Rep. Capps has always had a perfect score of supporting Planned Parenthood and NARAL—she gets 100%. Her National Right to Life lifetime voting record is predictably 0%. And this is the congresswoman whom Catholics are supposed to trust on abortion?

The Risks of a "Right" to Healthcare by Deal W. Hudson
The need for universal health care, guaranteed by the federal government, is so deeply felt among the bishops and other Catholic leaders that even the prospect of abortion funding has yet to evoke much of a public protest against the bills presently in the House and Senate. Apart from official letters from Justin Cardinal Rigali and Bishop William F. Murphy, Archbishop Timothy Dolan of New York is the only bishop who has spoken out strongly against the bills due to their abortion provisions. http://insidecatholic.com/Joomla/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=6635&Itemid=48
