Sen. Whitehouse: Foes Of Health Care Reform Are Birthers, Right-Wing militias, Aryan Groups
Or not. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, you are a moron. Perhaps some of us objected to the bill on its merits (lack thereof) and the continued giveaways to the insurance monopoly. Wait until the young and healthy learn about the individual mandate en masse; this demographic who supported Obama, will be seething to learn that health care reform means they will be forced to purchase insurance at an average annual price tag of $4,000.
Elizabeth Warren Named 'Bostonian Of The Year'
New video from the Boston Globe -- Behind the scenes with Dr. Warren
It's the year end so we're getting more of these made public. This honor at least was heartily deserved. A feisty (yet polite) graceful, academic-civil servant who effectively utilized the only weapon she was handed (in fact, 'not handed') by Congress: the media bully pulpit. She was given a grand title and little else. The rest was pure moxie.
Most of all, we thank her for being what we wished we could have been ourselves -- that is, a huge pain in Tim Geithner's ass.
Deficit Obama Tells Charlie Gibson: "If We Don't Pass Health Care Reform, The Federal Government Will Go Bankrupt"
ABC Video: Deficit Obama with Charlie Gibson -- Aired December 16, 2009
Oh, so now he cares about the national debt. When he was busy last week extending TARP and re-directing funds to another failed stimulus, it wasn't on his mind. He's reaching for straws to save health care reform from implosion; it won't work. His word is burnt toast on matters of spending. A $1.5 trillion first year deficit tends to be a credibility killer.

Bernie Sanders On Bernanke: "I Thought It Was An April Fool's Cover For TIME Magazine"

Senator Jim Bunning On Bernanke, Geithner, Paulson And The Truth About TARP
Video: Sen. Jim Bunning (R-KY) with Joe Kernen & Becky Quick -- Aired December 3, 2009
Continuing the Bernanke reality tour (in response to the delusional machinations of TIME crowning B-52 as 'Printing Press Foreman Of The Year'), we present Senator Jim Bunning from 10 days ago, prior to his celebrated annihilation of the Chairman later the same morning.
Make sure to catch the final 3 minutes, as Bunning goes after Paulson, Geithner and the blood-in-the-streets fear-mongering that was used to pass TARP. Includes a bonus clip with Kudlow on dollar destruction. Truth is good.
