Obamacare vs Romneycare

This comes from a rabidly pro-Mitt blog, but I think it makes quite a few good points:

Are there some similarities between Obamacare and Romneycare?   Sure, but there are some pretty big differences too, so I don't see why it would make Romney incapable of making the case against Obamacare.  With Romney at least we would have a chance to make that case, Santorum would constantly have us talking about all the wrong things and a real case against Obamacare would never get made.

The #DJBreitbart Project

Some of Andrew Breitbart's buddies have been spinning some of his favorite tunes in his honor... you can follow along on Twitter with the #DJBReitbart hashtag.  Not sure how long they will be doing this, so get to listening while you still can... not sure what their long term plans for this project are, but it would sure be nice if it became a regular thing.

I hope to get some more posted here soon... in the meantime, feel free to follow me on Twitter.

RIP Andrew Breitbart

I didn't know Andrew Breitbart, but I certainly knew of him... it seemed like whenever the vile nature of the radical left was being exposed, he was always standing right there in the middle of it with a big smile on his face.

I was very sad to learn that Andrew passed away the other day.  His death came as quite a shock.  Much less shocking, unfortunately, was the left's disgusting reaction to it... twitter exploded into an orgy of vitriolic hatred, with some of Andrew's friends retweeting the hateful messages being left for him, as he surely would have done himself if he were still here.  How appropriate that, in death, as he did in life, he still manages to sucker so many of those despicable creeps into showing us what kind of monsters they really are.

Here's a tribute to Andrew from his friends at Red Eye:
