Executive Order Allows Govt To Ban Some Alternative Medicine?

Share Button

It sure looks that way. On June 22nd, Obama stealth-fully did an end-around Congress and signed an executive order allowing the CDC and Dept of Health and Human Services to regulate alternative medicines. Congress had been trying to accomplish this for the last five years, but had never had much in the way of success. […]

The Republican “Pledge To America” Is Out.

Share Button

Yawn…. A party regurgitating old material, pretending that it’s new. And what’s with the term pledge? Feels squishy. Too much like a promise, which are made to be broken. Couldn’t they have found a more solid term to use? At least a contract seems like it has some weight to it… unless you’re dealing with […]

“[Gays] are basically the battered wife of the Democratic Party establishment”

Andrew Sullivan wakes up. The quote is at 3 minutes in. My friend Dan at gay Patriot notes that a lot of people are pinning this latest failure squarely at the feet of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. Man, this is going to be such a fun election. Too bad I can’t blog about it.

My One Political Cigarette

Share Button

Yesterday, I swore that I would not devote any more time to politics at Sonicfrog Dot Net… Well, like any recovering addict, there is bound to be a few slip-ups. Here is just such an example. I find I simply must respond to Obama’s lame answer to a question asked at a town hall type […]

Keynesians / Liberals – Relent

Cash for clunkers didn’t work. Neither did much of the stimulus. OK? Game over. PS. This is economics, not politics (so says I).

Well, As Steve Lukather said, “All’s Well That End Well”.

If you’re into music, and keep up with the comings and goings of your favorite artists, and one of your favorite artists happens to be Steve Lukather, then you know the reference is to the title of his forthcoming album. If you don’t keep up with the comings and goings of your favorite artists, and […]

How The Worm Turns.

Share Button

The NYT has published an article describing how the Obama administration and Democrats are trying to devise a political strategy to minimize the expected losses in the upcoming elections. I do find it interesting that, as the political crisis builds today, the constant theme in the press is that the Dems must find a way […]

What The…..

Did I just see Bill O’Reily, at about 1:25 in, trying to get advise about being able to persuade independent voters from… Sarah Palin???? Why yes, I did! Bill, have you seen her polling numbers with independents lately? (hint.. indies are not exactly burning a path to her door). Asking Sarah Palin’s advise about increasing […]

“Bush Tax Cuts Had Little Positive Impact on Economy”

Share Button

Commentary by Bruce Bartlett. He suggests that we look at the items in those tax packages, keep the ones that can be shown to have had an effect, and jettison the rest. Sound like sound policy implementation to me. The Palinite / Tea Party conservatives will trash this idea and dismiss Bartlett as a traitor […]
