Local paper ahead of Obama’s visit: “Take your jobs plan and shove it”

 HOTAIR.COM 3 Hours Ago Local paper ahead of Obama's visit: "Take your jobs plan and shove it" by  Erika Johnsen posted at 3:01 pm on July 30, 2013 by Erika Johnsen As I'm writing this, President Obama is doing his usual economic grandstanding routine in Chattanooga, Tennessee — and considering that Amazon just announced that they're going on an  epic hiring spree , their local Chattanooga warehouse is making a mighty convenient backdrop for the president jobs-oriented speech. The president is going on and on about "the ingredients we need" for good jobs, and all of his latest Keynesian stimulus ideas for economic growth, and talking up America's need to "invest" in the jobs and infrastructure of the future. Funnily enough, courtesy of Obama's first and biggest round of what we were promised would amount to successful stimulus spending, Chattanooga is the home of one of those sorts of supposedly high-tech and cutting-edge projects of wh...

No More Pastels

Tuesday, July 30th  A GOP of Bold Colors “Let's have a new first party – a Republican Party – raising a banner of bold colors, no pale pastels. A banner instantly recognizable as standing for certain values which will not be compromised.” – Reagan While I myself am a registered conservative, I look to the Republican Party as the closest representative of conservative values in American politics. Overtime, that appears to be fading. Sometimes I look at Washington lately and I wonder if it is possible to distinguish one party from the other. While many see the parties as bec...

Rubio, Lee, Cruz struggled to get time on the floor to discuss Obamacare defunding

 DAILYCALLER.COM 2 Hours Ago Rubio, Lee, Cruz struggled to get time on the floor to discuss Obamacare defunding by  Alexis Levinson Tweet WASHINGTON — Sen. Marco Rubio complained Tuesday that his attempts to get time on the floor to discuss defunding the Affordable Care Act with Sens. Ted Cruz and Mike Lee were repeatedly denied. The three Senators are spearheading the push to use the continuing resolution to defund the healthcare law, and are hoping to get more Republican Senators on board. The three have circulated a letter to that effect. Some Republican colleagues have signed on, but others, such as Sen. Richard Burr, criticized it as the "dumbest idea" he had ever heard. On Tuesday afternoon, Rubio tweeted a complaint that they were unable to schedule a time for the three of them to discuss the effort on the Senate floor. @SenMikeLee , @SenTedCruz  & I have been trying to get time on Senate floor 2 speak together about  #obamacare .Keep being told no time av...

Congress has the power to right this wrong if we choose not to fund the law. I thank Vice Chair Jenkins and all the other cosponsors of the Defund Obamacare Act for joining what...

‘The Limbaugh Theorem’: Rush Has a Theory on the Secret Behind Obama’s Popularity

 THEBLAZE.COM 2 Hours Ago 'The Limbaugh Theorem': Rush Has a Theory on the Secret Behind Obama's Popularity by  Jason Howerton (Fox News) Conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh's exclusive interview with Greta Van Susteren, which will air tonight at 10 p.m. ET, covers a variety of topics, including what he refers to as the "Limbaugh Theorem." In a sneak peek of the interview, Limbaugh presents his theory about why President Barack Obama continues to be popular among some voters, even as his policies fail. "Obama has positioned himself as an outsider…That's one of the reasons why the constant campaign," he said. "So he doesn't appear to be governing, so he doesn't appear to be part of Washington. So he appears to have this mysterious, powerful bunch of forces that are opposing him and stopping him from creating jobs and stopping him from giving people proper health care…but he is constantly out there fighting." "And he does t...

Blow to Bloomberg: Appeals Court Rules NYC’s Big Sugary Drink Ban Unconstitutional

 THEBLAZE.COM 6 Hours Ago Blow to Bloomberg: Appeals Court Rules NYC's Big Sugary Drink Ban Unconstitutional by  Anthony Weiner NEW YORK (AP) — New York City's crackdown on big, sugary sodas is staying on ice. An appeals court ruled Tuesday that New York City's Board of Health exceeded its legal authority and acted unconstitutionally when it tried to put a size limit on soft drinks served in city restaurants. The state Supreme Court Appellate Division panel upheld a lower court decision that had delayed the measure before it took effect in March. The rule would stop many eateries from selling non-diet soda and other sugar-laden beverages in containers bigger than 16 ounces. The beverage industry and other opponents say the measure is riddled with exceptions, unfair and ineffective. The city's law department has promised an appeal. – Follow Becket Adams  (@BecketAdams ) on Twitter Featured image Getty Images. - Blow to Bloomberg: Appeals Court Rules NYC's Big Sugary ...

Mike Lee warned about the dangers of executive overreach Tuesday morning, addressing an audience of young conservatives on topics ranging from the implementation of Obamacare to the American Revolution. Daily Caller/Paxton Delany "The fact is that we have a government that has sort of run away with its own power," the Utah Republican said at the Young America's Foundation's annual student conference. "We have to remember that the reason we have a revolution, the reason why we became our own country, the reason why we don't hail the queen today…was about the fact that we were tired of living subject to our London-based government that…was so far from its people it was slow to respond to our needs. It was a government that was encroaching on our liberty." Daily Caller/Grae Stafford Lee's s...
