American Current Events: Cash For Clunkers And Health Care Reform

Pundits and government officials (surprise) are already claiming the cash for clunkers program is a success.

Really? Reason Online has this to say about it.

Then again, Marketwatch has this to say.

Obama is trying too hard too fast.

I don't know why, and I could be wrong, but this reminds me of the Canadian gun registry fiasco from a few years back.

They. Just. Don't. Get.

It.

Some videos on Obama's Townhall meeting in New Hampshire here. He gets an 'A' for doing this.

The President claims he doesn't want to "subsidize the insurance companies." But the banks and auto industries are ok? Odd.

Now it's "insurance reform." Ok. But is it fair to single them out? Factcheck.org answers that question here. Not surprisingly, FC schools Moveon.org on how to, well, fact check.

Moveon.org simplistic? No. It can't be. It just can't be!

Factcheck also takes aim at Obama's claim AARP support his bill. Na-ah.

Alas, do not giggle with glee ye conservatives! FC tackles some dubious claims from the right here.

And what of the euthanasia claims?

All I know is if the Dems. fail to get this done, they'd be wise not to pin this on Rush Limbaugh or the insurance companies or people with Swastikas, for a nice, long look in the mirror tells many truths.
