You'd think that liberals who want to overhaul the entire Healthcare system might have a few examples of hardships in the current system to highlight. There don't seem to be many stories out there -- well, that's not entirely true -- there are plenty of stories. The problem is, not many of them seem to be actually true. Here's one story of hardship told by Obama that was entirely false. Watch Glenn tell the story in the latest Beck Talks video blog ( WATCH)
Chicago TV told not to air anti-Olympic segment
Fox News in Chicago aired a segment featuring the people of the area who want nothing to do with the Olympics coming to town in 2016. That's when the phone call came in to stop airing that segment, because it might hurt the city's chances to land the Olympics, and the news director canned the segment. In totally unrelated news, in the midst of a flailing economy and 2 international wars, President Obama flew to Copenhagen to plead Chicago's case. STORY
Another lib state on the ropes
The liberal geniuses in California have already done a great job showing how awful their policies really are and now they are learning that lesson in Michigan as well. How many decades of strife must be inflicted before people wake up and realize that liberal policies just don't work? They are facing a government shut-down, which probably is the best thing the state could hope for at this point. They are even shutting down the state lottery. Only the government could find a way to NOT make money on gambling. STORY
Dirtbag Polanski finally arrested
Roman Polanski was finally arrested for the 1978 rape of a teenager. This piece of garbage had sex with a 13 year old then fled the country, not shockingly, to Europe where apparently it's ok for 45 year olds to shack up with elementary aged children. This bag of scum was allowed to live his life a free man -- for over 3 decades -- and yet France's 'political elite' have rallied to the defense of Polanski calling his arrest regretful and accusing the Swiss of being 'overzealous' in the case. Is it really possible to be 'overzealous' in the pursuit of the person who raped a 13 year old? Apparently it is to the culturally advanced French. STORY
Government working for YOU
Senator John Kerry continues to demonstrate how he managed to flub the 2004 election every time he opens his goofy mouth. Obviously Democrats have realized that the term 'Cap n Trade' has a hugely negative connotation with the public, so Kerry sought to change the language in the latest Climate bill he is proposing, calling it a 'pollution reduction' bill.
From the NY Times: Kerry last week sought to change the vernacular surrounding the climate bill and sell its concepts more broadly, insisting it is not a "cap and trade" proposal but a "pollution reduction" bill. "I don't know what 'cap and trade' means. I don't think the average American does," Kerry said. "This is not a cap-and-trade bill, it's a pollution reduction bill."
If you don't know what Cap and Trade means, how do you know it is 'not a cap-and-trade bill?' STORY
