March to Socialism - remember air pollution?
If you are old enough to remember liking disco music, you may also remember the environmental issues of the day such as air pollution. Scientists were telling us in 1970 that by the 80's life expectancy would be 42 and that hundreds of thousands would die from air pollution. Democrats are holding a full three day summit on Cap & Trade -- a giant taxation scheme that does nothing to stop global warming. Maybe Democrats should look at what happened to air pollution --- which has decreased dramatically since the 80's, despite huge increases in population --- before they levy yet another giant tax on Americans.

>>POLL: Which way do you want the GOP to go from here? Clearly the GOP needs to get its act together and unify -- unless it wants to watch progressivism rammed down our throats for the decades to come. Take the poll on which way you'd like to see the party go. ( Take the poll)
Arthur Laffer
Laffer was on President Reagan's economic advisory board. He helped shape the economic policies that saved us from the horrifying Carter policies that brought inflation and economic malaise. He's just written a special introduction for the release of President Ronald Reagan's Initial Action Report. This amazing book explores how Regan restored America’s economy and put us back on top.

>>Imagine no Stimulus: Remember how ‘The One’ told us America might not survive if his glorious spending bill was not passed? Glenn takes a look at the Obama administrations own projections on what would happen if the stimulus passed vs. if it didn't pass. What do the results look like compared to the current unemployment rates? What would America look like if there was no all powerful stimulus bill passed? Glenn shows you what the Obama folks thought back in January in this week’s 'Beck Talks' video.
Glenn weeps: As you know, Glenn has a tendency to show his feminine side -- the crying, the attire, disinterest in sports, knack for interior design -- and the list goes on. So what's it look like when this mess of a man needs to suck it up and prepare to be funny? WATCH
