The right thing to do 27.8.2010 Crooks Liars
What makes me saddest of all things in the world is this: the vast majority of the time the right thing to do morally is the right thing to do in terms of broad self-interest, and yet we don’t believe that and we do the wrong thing, thinking we must, thinking that we’re making the “hard decisions”. This spans the spectrum of issues. It doesn’t matter whether you’re talking about foreign affairs, where the money used on Iraq and Afghanistan could have rebuilt America and made it more prosperous. It doesn’t matter if you’re talking about health care, where everyone knew that the right thing to do was single payer or some other form of comprehensive healthcare, which would have reduced bankruptcies massively, saved 6% of GDP and massive numbers of ...
Not again: Another act of Democrat vandalism falsely blamed on Tea Party 25.8.2010 NewsTrust Yahoo Pipes Feed
Remember my handy March 2010 guide? Flashback: How the Left fakes the hate: A primer. Remember this case? Flashback: In late August 2009, as lawmakers faced citizen revolts at health care town halls nationwide, the Colorado Democratic Party decried a vandalism attack at its Denver headquarters. A hammer-wielding thug smashed 11 windows and caused $11,000 [...]
Trahant: A fast year: Lessons from the Indian Health system 24.8.2010 ICT - Opinion
A year goes by fast. Way too fast. Thirteen months ago I plunged into my “year-long” exploration of the Indian health system. It’s been fascinating because there has been so much activity: Congress enacted the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and included with that bill the permanent authorization of the Indian Health Care Improvement Act.

Health Message Fail 20.8.2010 The Atlantic - Matthew Ygblesias
I think people generally overrate the importance of “messaging” in political outcomes, but Ben Smith’s reporting on some recent health care strategizing reveals what looks to be a truly important failure: The presentation concedes that groups typically supportive of Democratic causes — people under 40, non-college educated women, and Hispanic voters — have not been won [...]

Paul Ryan Wants to End Medicare As We Know It, While Lying About It 17.8.2010 The Atlantic - Matthew Ygblesias
On Friday, for some reason the custodians of the Washington Post’s op-ed page decided to let Paul Ryan write the following in their paper: Unfortunately, but not surprisingly, the Democrats’ political machine has attacked my contribution to this debate, making the false claim that the only solution put forward to save Medicare would “end Medicare as [...]
A Thoughtful Response to Robert Gibbs from the 'Educated Left'... 14.8.2010 BradBlog
Guest Editorial by Ernest A. Canning Sorry, Mr. Gibbs, but your description of a "professional left" whose critiques of your boss, President Barack Obama, should be disregarded as the "crazy" musings of "people who ought to be drug tested" reflects that you are both authoritarian and out-of-touch. The vast majority ...

Socialism in America 9.8.2010 Truthout.com

Socialism had a checkered career in the United States. Its partisans never had a meaningful chance at gaining power. Around the turn of the 20th century, during the 1930s, and then again during the 1960s, however, they did influence the intellectual climate and the formation of various policy options. That influence grew weaker in the aftermath of the 1960s. But, today, the appeal of socialism has had something of a rebirth. Eight years of the Bush administration produced the largest shift of income in American history.

Joan Aragone: Happy birthday, Medicare 9.8.2010 San Jose Mercury News: News

What’s in a name? Strange coincidence 7.8.2010 ICT: Politics
DENVER – What are the odds? Two American Indian state legislators – one incumbent, one aspiring – in a state with a relatively small Native population, and both of them, although unrelated and from different tribes, with the last name “Williams.”

To be sure, Sen. Suzanne Williams’ maiden name is Sandford, but she has been “Senator Williams” and, earlier, state representative, for more than a decade. A member of the Comanche Nation, she is the state’s only tribally enrolled legislator – at least for now.
