The News of the Day

Jason Collins of the Boston Celtics comes out of the closet as the first openly homosexual active player in a major U.S. team sport and is congratulated by the President of the United States. Another nail is driven in our national coffin.

Dr. Kermit Gosnell is on trial for murder in Philadelphia, accused of deliberately killing a woman and seven infants who somehow survived his clumsy attempts to abort them. Apparently, the horror chamber he operated as an abortion mill hadn't been inspected for seventeen years and he regularly overdosed his "patients" before butchering their helpless children, so he may have killed thousands of babies before the death of an adult forced the D.A.' s hand. As benumbed as our country may be to the routine slaughter of our most helpless citizens, the legacy media is only too aware of the effect diligent reporting of this disgusting episode would have on the general public, so they have consciously avoided the story, hoping it would just go away. But I'd like to point out something that Dr. Gosnell, the left-wing media and my fellow Americans would do well to understand: The Lord God of the universe, the Maker of everything that ever was and everything that ever will be, sees and hears and understands everything. He will not hold guiltless those who murder innocent children. As the great orator said, their " ...hands are stained with blood and soiled with corruption. " The blood of two generations of American children, murdered on the altar of radical feminism, slaughtered because they were inconvenient, cries out from the earth and the Lord hears. Dr. Gosnell, repent while you can.

A study released by Careerbuilder.com indicates that 82% of health care workers would leave their jobs right now if the right opportunity were available, due to the increased pressure of Obamacare. Coupled with the statement of Senator Max Baucus (who ironically drafted the bill) two weeks ago that implementing Obamacare was going to be a train wreck, the mounting number of companies dumping their private health insurance because of rising costs, and Democrat pals like the unions and AARP desperately seeking exemptions from the law (the Dems on the Hill were sniffing for a way to avoid using Obamacare to cover themselves and their staffs), we are watching unfold the most accurately predicted, easily avoided financial disaster in our history. Conservatives like me warned and warned against this hot mess of a law but the American people, in a drunken stupor, lusted for universal health care, it was a civil right, it would help the poor and create jobs and lower costs and it was just the right thing to do, and even though nobody knew what was in the law or what would really happen after it was passed or how it would work or how much it would cost, we passed it anyway, crossed our fingers and hoped for the best. And like Wile E. Coyote, lighting the fuse for a bomb he's sitting on, we're about to be blown up by our own hand. I would've thought that the home mortgage meltdown, also caused by well-meaning but comically inept Democrats - ahem, Barney Frank and Chris Dodd - would've inoculated the American people to falling for such nonsense again, but obviously I was wrong. So we'll go through the agony of higher unemployment, fewer options, longer waiting times, epic waste, massive taxes and spending and impenetrable bureaucracy until Obamacare dies of its own inertia, we'll wonder how it all happened and then we'll build a massive Presidential library for Priest-King somewhere in Chicago, because if there's one thing we like more than celebrating success in America, it's celebrating failure.
